FS-Cache: Add the FS-Cache netfs API and documentation Add the API for a generic facility (FS-Cache) by which filesystems (such as AFS or NFS) may call on local caching capabilities without having to know anything about how the cache works, or even if there is a cache: +---------+ | | +--------------+ | NFS |--+ | | | | | +-->| CacheFS | +---------+ | +----------+ | | /dev/hda5 | | | | | +--------------+ +---------+ +-->| | | | | | |--+ | AFS |----->| FS-Cache | | | | |--+ +---------+ +-->| | | | | | | +--------------+ +---------+ | +----------+ | | | | | | +-->| CacheFiles | | ISOFS |--+ | /var/cache | | | +--------------+ +---------+ General documentation and documentation of the netfs specific API are provided in addition to the header files. As this patch stands, it is possible to build a filesystem against the facility and attempt to use it. All that will happen is that all requests will be immediately denied as if no cache is present. Further patches will implement the core of the facility. The facility will transfer requests from networking filesystems to appropriate caches if possible, or else gracefully deny them. If this facility is disabled in the kernel configuration, then all its operations will trivially reduce to nothing during compilation. WHY NOT I_MAPPING? ================== I have added my own API to implement caching rather than using i_mapping to do this for a number of reasons. These have been discussed a lot on the LKML and CacheFS mailing lists, but to summarise the basics: (1) Most filesystems don't do hole reportage. Holes in files are treated as blocks of zeros and can't be distinguished otherwise, making it difficult to distinguish blocks that have been read from the network and cached from those that haven't. (2) The backing inode must be fully populated before being exposed to userspace through the main inode because the VM/VFS goes directly to the backing inode and does not interrogate the front inode's VM ops. Therefore: (a) The backing inode must fit entirely within the cache. (b) All backed files currently open must fit entirely within the cache at the same time. (c) A working set of files in total larger than the cache may not be cached. (d) A file may not grow larger than the available space in the cache. (e) A file that's open and cached, and remotely grows larger than the cache is potentially stuffed. (3) Writes go to the backing filesystem, and can only be transferred to the network when the file is closed. (4) There's no record of what changes have been made, so the whole file must be written back. (5) The pages belong to the backing filesystem, and all metadata associated with that page are relevant only to the backing filesystem, and not anything stacked atop it. OVERVIEW ======== FS-Cache provides (or will provide) the following facilities: (1) Caches can be added / removed at any time, even whilst in use. (2) Adds a facility by which tags can be used to refer to caches, even if they're not available yet. (3) More than one cache can be used at once. Caches can be selected explicitly by use of tags. (4) The netfs is provided with an interface that allows either party to withdraw caching facilities from a file (required for (1)). (5) A netfs may annotate cache objects that belongs to it. This permits the storage of coherency maintenance data. (6) Cache objects will be pinnable and space reservations will be possible. (7) The interface to the netfs returns as few errors as possible, preferring rather to let the netfs remain oblivious. (8) Cookies are used to represent indices, files and other objects to the netfs. The simplest cookie is just a NULL pointer - indicating nothing cached there. (9) The netfs is allowed to propose - dynamically - any index hierarchy it desires, though it must be aware that the index search function is recursive, stack space is limited, and indices can only be children of indices. (10) Indices can be used to group files together to reduce key size and to make group invalidation easier. The use of indices may make lookup quicker, but that's cache dependent. (11) Data I/O is effectively done directly to and from the netfs's pages. The netfs indicates that page A is at index B of the data-file represented by cookie C, and that it should be read or written. The cache backend may or may not start I/O on that page, but if it does, a netfs callback will be invoked to indicate completion. The I/O may be either synchronous or asynchronous. (12) Cookies can be "retired" upon release. At this point FS-Cache will mark them as obsolete and the index hierarchy rooted at that point will get recycled. (13) The netfs provides a "match" function for index searches. In addition to saying whether a match was made or not, this can also specify that an entry should be updated or deleted. FS-Cache maintains a virtual index tree in which all indices, files, objects and pages are kept. Bits of this tree may actually reside in one or more caches.

vfs, fscache: Implement pinning of cache usage for writeback Cachefiles has a problem in that it needs to keep the backing file for a cookie open whilst there are local modifications pending that need to be written to it. However, we don't want to keep the file open indefinitely, as that causes EMFILE/ENFILE/ENOMEM problems. Reopening the cache file, however, is a problem if this is being done due to writeback triggered by exit(). Some filesystems will oops if we try to open a file in that context because they want to access current->fs or other resources that have already been dismantled. To get around this, I added the following: (1) An inode flag, I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB, to be set on a network filesystem inode to indicate that we have a usage count on the cookie caching that inode. (2) A flag in struct writeback_control, unpinned_fscache_wb, that is set when __writeback_single_inode() clears the last dirty page from i_pages - at which point it clears I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and sets this flag. This has to be done here so that clearing I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB can be done atomically with the check of PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY that clears I_DIRTY_PAGES. (3) A function, fscache_set_page_dirty(), which if it is not set, sets I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and calls fscache_use_cookie() to pin the cache resources. (4) A function, fscache_unpin_writeback(), to be called by ->write_inode() to unuse the cookie. (5) A function, fscache_clear_inode_writeback(), to be called when the inode is evicted, before clear_inode() is called. This cleans up any lingering I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB. The network filesystem can then use these tools to make sure that fscache_write_to_cache() can write locally modified data to the cache as well as to the server. For the future, I'm working on write helpers for netfs lib that should allow this facility to be removed by keeping track of the dirty regions separately - but that's incomplete at the moment and is also going to be affected by folios, one way or another, since it deals with pages Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> cc: linux-cachefs@redhat.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/163819615157.215744.17623791756928043114.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk/ # v1 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/163906917856.143852.8224898306177154573.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk/ # v2 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/163967124567.1823006.14188359004568060298.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk/ # v3 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/164021524705.640689.17824932021727663017.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk/ # v4

fscache: Implement volume registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow volumes to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. A volume is an index of data storage cache objects. A volume is represented by a volume cookie in the API. A filesystem would typically create a volume for a superblock and then create per-inode cookies within it. To request a volume, the filesystem calls: struct fscache_volume * fscache_acquire_volume(const char *volume_key, const char *cache_name, const void *coherency_data, size_t coherency_len) The volume_key is a printable string used to match the volume in the cache. It should not contain any '/' characters. For AFS, for example, this would be "afs,<cellname>,<volume_id>", e.g. "afs,example.com,523001". The cache_name can be NULL, but if not it should be a string indicating the name of the cache to use if there's more than one available. The coherency data, if given, is an arbitrarily-sized blob that's attached to the volume and is compared when the volume is looked up. If it doesn't match, the old volume is judged to be out of date and it and everything within it is discarded. Acquiring a volume twice concurrently is disallowed, though the function will wait if an old volume cookie is being relinquishing. When a network filesystem has finished with a volume, it should return the volume cookie by calling: void fscache_relinquish_volume(struct fscache_volume *volume, const void *coherency_data, bool invalidate) If invalidate is true, the entire volume will be discarded; if false, the volume will be synced and the coherency data will be updated. Changes ======= ver #4: - Removed an extraneous param from kdoc on fscache_relinquish_volume()[3]. ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[2]. - Make the coherency data an arbitrary blob rather than a u64, but don't store it for the moment. ver #2: - Fix error check[1]. - Make a fscache_acquire_volume() return errors, including EBUSY if a conflicting volume cookie already exists. No error is printed now - that's left to the netfs.

FS-Cache: Add the FS-Cache netfs API and documentation Add the API for a generic facility (FS-Cache) by which filesystems (such as AFS or NFS) may call on local caching capabilities without having to know anything about how the cache works, or even if there is a cache: +---------+ | | +--------------+ | NFS |--+ | | | | | +-->| CacheFS | +---------+ | +----------+ | | /dev/hda5 | | | | | +--------------+ +---------+ +-->| | | | | | |--+ | AFS |----->| FS-Cache | | | | |--+ +---------+ +-->| | | | | | | +--------------+ +---------+ | +----------+ | | | | | | +-->| CacheFiles | | ISOFS |--+ | /var/cache | | | +--------------+ +---------+ General documentation and documentation of the netfs specific API are provided in addition to the header files. As this patch stands, it is possible to build a filesystem against the facility and attempt to use it. All that will happen is that all requests will be immediately denied as if no cache is present. Further patches will implement the core of the facility. The facility will transfer requests from networking filesystems to appropriate caches if possible, or else gracefully deny them. If this facility is disabled in the kernel configuration, then all its operations will trivially reduce to nothing during compilation. WHY NOT I_MAPPING? ================== I have added my own API to implement caching rather than using i_mapping to do this for a number of reasons. These have been discussed a lot on the LKML and CacheFS mailing lists, but to summarise the basics: (1) Most filesystems don't do hole reportage. Holes in files are treated as blocks of zeros and can't be distinguished otherwise, making it difficult to distinguish blocks that have been read from the network and cached from those that haven't. (2) The backing inode must be fully populated before being exposed to userspace through the main inode because the VM/VFS goes directly to the backing inode and does not interrogate the front inode's VM ops. Therefore: (a) The backing inode must fit entirely within the cache. (b) All backed files currently open must fit entirely within the cache at the same time. (c) A working set of files in total larger than the cache may not be cached. (d) A file may not grow larger than the available space in the cache. (e) A file that's open and cached, and remotely grows larger than the cache is potentially stuffed. (3) Writes go to the backing filesystem, and can only be transferred to the network when the file is closed. (4) There's no record of what changes have been made, so the whole file must be written back. (5) The pages belong to the backing filesystem, and all metadata associated with that page are relevant only to the backing filesystem, and not anything stacked atop it. OVERVIEW ======== FS-Cache provides (or will provide) the following facilities: (1) Caches can be added / removed at any time, even whilst in use. (2) Adds a facility by which tags can be used to refer to caches, even if they're not available yet. (3) More than one cache can be used at once. Caches can be selected explicitly by use of tags. (4) The netfs is provided with an interface that allows either party to withdraw caching facilities from a file (required for (1)). (5) A netfs may annotate cache objects that belongs to it. This permits the storage of coherency maintenance data. (6) Cache objects will be pinnable and space reservations will be possible. (7) The interface to the netfs returns as few errors as possible, preferring rather to let the netfs remain oblivious. (8) Cookies are used to represent indices, files and other objects to the netfs. The simplest cookie is just a NULL pointer - indicating nothing cached there. (9) The netfs is allowed to propose - dynamically - any index hierarchy it desires, though it must be aware that the index search function is recursive, stack space is limited, and indices can only be children of indices. (10) Indices can be used to group files together to reduce key size and to make group invalidation easier. The use of indices may make lookup quicker, but that's cache dependent. (11) Data I/O is effectively done directly to and from the netfs's pages. The netfs indicates that page A is at index B of the data-file represented by cookie C, and that it should be read or written. The cache backend may or may not start I/O on that page, but if it does, a netfs callback will be invoked to indicate completion. The I/O may be either synchronous or asynchronous. (12) Cookies can be "retired" upon release. At this point FS-Cache will mark them as obsolete and the index hierarchy rooted at that point will get recycled. (13) The netfs provides a "match" function for index searches. In addition to saying whether a match was made or not, this can also specify that an entry should be updated or deleted. FS-Cache maintains a virtual index tree in which all indices, files, objects and pages are kept. Bits of this tree may actually reside in one or more caches.

Each data file objects can have an array of pages, but may also have further child objects, such as extended attributes and directory entries. Extended attribute objects themselves have page-array contents. (*) The AFS primary index contains per-cell indices. Each cell index contains per-logical-volume indices. Each of volume index contains up to three indices for the read-write, read-only and backup mirrors of those volumes. Each of these contains vnode data file objects, each of which contains an array of pages. The very top index is the FS-Cache master index in which individual netfs's have entries.

#define fscache_cookie_valid(cookie) (cookie)
fscache: Implement cookie user counting and resource pinning Provide a pair of functions to count the number of users of a cookie (open files, writeback, invalidation, resizing, reads, writes), to obtain and pin resources for the cookie and to prevent culling for the whilst there are users. The first function marks a cookie as being in use: void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, bool will_modify); The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR). If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a whole is withdrawn. The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally, updates the coherency data: void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, const loff_t *object_size); If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is committed. If this removes the last usage on a cookie, the cookie is placed onto an LRU list from which it will be removed and closed after a couple of seconds if it doesn't get reused. This prevents resource overload in the cache - in particular it prevents it from holding too many files open. Changes ======= ver #2: - Fix fscache_unuse_cookie() to use atomic_dec_and_lock() to avoid a potential race if the cookie gets reused before it completes the unusement. - Added missing transition to LRU_DISCARDING state.

fscache: Implement cookie user counting and resource pinning Provide a pair of functions to count the number of users of a cookie (open files, writeback, invalidation, resizing, reads, writes), to obtain and pin resources for the cookie and to prevent culling for the whilst there are users. The first function marks a cookie as being in use: void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, bool will_modify); The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR). If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a whole is withdrawn. The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally, updates the coherency data: void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, const loff_t *object_size); If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is committed. If this removes the last usage on a cookie, the cookie is placed onto an LRU list from which it will be removed and closed after a couple of seconds if it doesn't get reused. This prevents resource overload in the cache - in particular it prevents it from holding too many files open. Changes ======= ver #2: - Fix fscache_unuse_cookie() to use atomic_dec_and_lock() to avoid a potential race if the cookie gets reused before it completes the unusement. - Added missing transition to LRU_DISCARDING state.

FS-Cache: Add the FS-Cache netfs API and documentation Add the API for a generic facility (FS-Cache) by which filesystems (such as AFS or NFS) may call on local caching capabilities without having to know anything about how the cache works, or even if there is a cache: +---------+ | | +--------------+ | NFS |--+ | | | | | +-->| CacheFS | +---------+ | +----------+ | | /dev/hda5 | | | | | +--------------+ +---------+ +-->| | | | | | |--+ | AFS |----->| FS-Cache | | | | |--+ +---------+ +-->| | | | | | | +--------------+ +---------+ | +----------+ | | | | | | +-->| CacheFiles | | ISOFS |--+ | /var/cache | | | +--------------+ +---------+ General documentation and documentation of the netfs specific API are provided in addition to the header files. As this patch stands, it is possible to build a filesystem against the facility and attempt to use it. All that will happen is that all requests will be immediately denied as if no cache is present. Further patches will implement the core of the facility. The facility will transfer requests from networking filesystems to appropriate caches if possible, or else gracefully deny them. If this facility is disabled in the kernel configuration, then all its operations will trivially reduce to nothing during compilation. WHY NOT I_MAPPING? ================== I have added my own API to implement caching rather than using i_mapping to do this for a number of reasons. These have been discussed a lot on the LKML and CacheFS mailing lists, but to summarise the basics: (1) Most filesystems don't do hole reportage. Holes in files are treated as blocks of zeros and can't be distinguished otherwise, making it difficult to distinguish blocks that have been read from the network and cached from those that haven't. (2) The backing inode must be fully populated before being exposed to userspace through the main inode because the VM/VFS goes directly to the backing inode and does not interrogate the front inode's VM ops. Therefore: (a) The backing inode must fit entirely within the cache. (b) All backed files currently open must fit entirely within the cache at the same time. (c) A working set of files in total larger than the cache may not be cached. (d) A file may not grow larger than the available space in the cache. (e) A file that's open and cached, and remotely grows larger than the cache is potentially stuffed. (3) Writes go to the backing filesystem, and can only be transferred to the network when the file is closed. (4) There's no record of what changes have been made, so the whole file must be written back. (5) The pages belong to the backing filesystem, and all metadata associated with that page are relevant only to the backing filesystem, and not anything stacked atop it. OVERVIEW ======== FS-Cache provides (or will provide) the following facilities: (1) Caches can be added / removed at any time, even whilst in use. (2) Adds a facility by which tags can be used to refer to caches, even if they're not available yet. (3) More than one cache can be used at once. Caches can be selected explicitly by use of tags. (4) The netfs is provided with an interface that allows either party to withdraw caching facilities from a file (required for (1)). (5) A netfs may annotate cache objects that belongs to it. This permits the storage of coherency maintenance data. (6) Cache objects will be pinnable and space reservations will be possible. (7) The interface to the netfs returns as few errors as possible, preferring rather to let the netfs remain oblivious. (8) Cookies are used to represent indices, files and other objects to the netfs. The simplest cookie is just a NULL pointer - indicating nothing cached there. (9) The netfs is allowed to propose - dynamically - any index hierarchy it desires, though it must be aware that the index search function is recursive, stack space is limited, and indices can only be children of indices. (10) Indices can be used to group files together to reduce key size and to make group invalidation easier. The use of indices may make lookup quicker, but that's cache dependent. (11) Data I/O is effectively done directly to and from the netfs's pages. The netfs indicates that page A is at index B of the data-file represented by cookie C, and that it should be read or written. The cache backend may or may not start I/O on that page, but if it does, a netfs callback will be invoked to indicate completion. The I/O may be either synchronous or asynchronous. (12) Cookies can be "retired" upon release. At this point FS-Cache will mark them as obsolete and the index hierarchy rooted at that point will get recycled. (13) The netfs provides a "match" function for index searches. In addition to saying whether a match was made or not, this can also specify that an entry should be updated or deleted. FS-Cache maintains a virtual index tree in which all indices, files, objects and pages are kept. Bits of this tree may actually reside in one or more caches.

fscache: Implement cookie registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. It is intended that the filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume. To request a cookie, the filesystem should call: struct fscache_cookie * fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, u8 advice, const void *index_key, size_t index_key_len, const void *aux_data, size_t aux_data_len, loff_t object_size) The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL cookie. A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len. This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in the cache. A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be updateable by various functions in later patches. The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately. This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel, though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy relinquishing its cookie. When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call: void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, bool retire) If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately. Changes ======= ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1]. - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of freeing. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0. - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire tracepoint.

cachefiles: notify the user daemon when looking up cookie Fscache/CacheFiles used to serve as a local cache for a remote networking fs. A new on-demand read mode will be introduced for CacheFiles, which can boost the scenario where on-demand read semantics are needed, e.g. container image distribution. The essential difference between these two modes is seen when a cache miss occurs: In the original mode, the netfs will fetch the data from the remote server and then write it to the cache file; in on-demand read mode, fetching the data and writing it into the cache is delegated to a user daemon. As the first step, notify the user daemon when looking up cookie. In this case, an anonymous fd is sent to the user daemon, through which the user daemon can write the fetched data to the cache file. Since the user daemon may move the anonymous fd around, e.g. through dup(), an object ID uniquely identifying the cache file is also attached. Also add one advisory flag (FSCACHE_ADV_WANT_CACHE_SIZE) suggesting that the cache file size shall be retrieved at runtime. This helps the scenario where one cache file contains multiple netfs files, e.g. for the purpose of deduplication. In this case, netfs itself has no idea the size of the cache file, whilst the user daemon should give the hint on it.

If the cookie is marked as being in use, a new cache object will be created if possible and future I/O will use that instead. In-flight I/O should be abandoned (writes) or reconsidered (reads). Each time it is called cookie->inval_counter is incremented and this can be used to detect invalidation at the end of an I/O operation. The coherency data attached to the cookie can be updated and the cookie size should be reset. One flag is available, FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE, which should be used to indicate invalidation due to a DIO write on a file. This will temporarily disable caching for this cookie.

fscache: Provide a means to begin an operation Provide a function to begin a read operation: int fscache_begin_read_operation( struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, struct fscache_cookie *cookie) This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly. It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the supplied cookie. This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform synchronisation on the operation. cres->inval_counter is set from the cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the operation. Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in progress in the background. The operations intended to be called by the network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for the cookie to move to the correct state. This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that I/O can resume. Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object to get to a state where it can be used for certain things: bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, enum fscache_want_stage stage); This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits for them to get to an appropriate stage.

fscache: Implement cookie invalidation Add a function to invalidate the cache behind a cookie: void fscache_invalidate(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, loff_t size, unsigned int flags) This causes any cached data for the specified cookie to be discarded. If the cookie is marked as being in use, a new cache object will be created if possible and future I/O will use that instead. In-flight I/O should be abandoned (writes) or reconsidered (reads). Each time it is called cookie->inval_counter is incremented and this can be used to detect invalidation at the end of an I/O operation. The coherency data attached to the cookie can be updated and the cookie size should be reset. One flag is available, FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE, which should be used to indicate invalidation due to a DIO write on a file. This will temporarily disable caching for this cookie. Changes ======= ver #2: - Should only change to inval state if can get access to cache.

FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_INVALIDATING, /* The cache is being invalidated */
fscache: Implement cookie registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. It is intended that the filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume. To request a cookie, the filesystem should call: struct fscache_cookie * fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, u8 advice, const void *index_key, size_t index_key_len, const void *aux_data, size_t aux_data_len, loff_t object_size) The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL cookie. A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len. This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in the cache. A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be updateable by various functions in later patches. The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately. This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel, though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy relinquishing its cookie. When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call: void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, bool retire) If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately. Changes ======= ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1]. - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of freeing. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0. - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire tracepoint.

FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_FAILED, /* The cache failed, withdraw to clear */
fscache: Implement cookie user counting and resource pinning Provide a pair of functions to count the number of users of a cookie (open files, writeback, invalidation, resizing, reads, writes), to obtain and pin resources for the cookie and to prevent culling for the whilst there are users. The first function marks a cookie as being in use: void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, bool will_modify); The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR). If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a whole is withdrawn. The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally, updates the coherency data: void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, const loff_t *object_size); If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is committed. If this removes the last usage on a cookie, the cookie is placed onto an LRU list from which it will be removed and closed after a couple of seconds if it doesn't get reused. This prevents resource overload in the cache - in particular it prevents it from holding too many files open. Changes ======= ver #2: - Fix fscache_unuse_cookie() to use atomic_dec_and_lock() to avoid a potential race if the cookie gets reused before it completes the unusement. - Added missing transition to LRU_DISCARDING state.

fscache: Implement volume registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow volumes to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. A volume is an index of data storage cache objects. A volume is represented by a volume cookie in the API. A filesystem would typically create a volume for a superblock and then create per-inode cookies within it. To request a volume, the filesystem calls: struct fscache_volume * fscache_acquire_volume(const char *volume_key, const char *cache_name, const void *coherency_data, size_t coherency_len) The volume_key is a printable string used to match the volume in the cache. It should not contain any '/' characters. For AFS, for example, this would be "afs,<cellname>,<volume_id>", e.g. "afs,example.com,523001". The cache_name can be NULL, but if not it should be a string indicating the name of the cache to use if there's more than one available. The coherency data, if given, is an arbitrarily-sized blob that's attached to the volume and is compared when the volume is looked up. If it doesn't match, the old volume is judged to be out of date and it and everything within it is discarded. Acquiring a volume twice concurrently is disallowed, though the function will wait if an old volume cookie is being relinquishing. When a network filesystem has finished with a volume, it should return the volume cookie by calling: void fscache_relinquish_volume(struct fscache_volume *volume, const void *coherency_data, bool invalidate) If invalidate is true, the entire volume will be discarded; if false, the volume will be synced and the coherency data will be updated. Changes ======= ver #4: - Removed an extraneous param from kdoc on fscache_relinquish_volume()[3]. ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[2]. - Make the coherency data an arbitrary blob rather than a u64, but don't store it for the moment. ver #2: - Fix error check[1]. - Make a fscache_acquire_volume() return errors, including EBUSY if a conflicting volume cookie already exists.

fscache: fix OOB Read in __fscache_acquire_volume The type of a->key[0] is char in fscache_volume_same(). If the length of cache volume key is greater than 127, the value of a->key[0] is less than 0. In this case, klen becomes much larger than 255 after type conversion, because the type of klen is size_t. As a result, memcmp() is read out of bounds. This causes a slab-out-of-bounds Read in __fscache_acquire_volume(), as reported by Syzbot. Fix this by changing the type of the stored key to "u8 *" rather than "char *" (it isn't a simple string anyway). Also put in a check that the volume name doesn't exceed NAME_MAX.

To request a cookie, the filesystem should call: struct fscache_cookie * fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, u8 advice, const void *index_key, size_t index_key_len, const void *aux_data, size_t aux_data_len, loff_t object_size) The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL cookie. A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len. This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in the cache. A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be updateable by various functions in later patches. The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately. This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel, though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy relinquishing its cookie. When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call: void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, bool retire) If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately. Changes ======= ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1]. - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of freeing. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0. - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire tracepoint.

fscache: Implement volume registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow volumes to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. A volume is an index of data storage cache objects. A volume is represented by a volume cookie in the API. A filesystem would typically create a volume for a superblock and then create per-inode cookies within it. To request a volume, the filesystem calls: struct fscache_volume * fscache_acquire_volume(const char *volume_key, const char *cache_name, const void *coherency_data, size_t coherency_len) The volume_key is a printable string used to match the volume in the cache. It should not contain any '/' characters. For AFS, for example, this would be "afs,<cellname>,<volume_id>", e.g. "afs,example.com,523001". The cache_name can be NULL, but if not it should be a string indicating the name of the cache to use if there's more than one available. The coherency data, if given, is an arbitrarily-sized blob that's attached to the volume and is compared when the volume is looked up. If it doesn't match, the old volume is judged to be out of date and it and everything within it is discarded. Acquiring a volume twice concurrently is disallowed, though the function will wait if an old volume cookie is being relinquishing. When a network filesystem has finished with a volume, it should return the volume cookie by calling: void fscache_relinquish_volume(struct fscache_volume *volume, const void *coherency_data, bool invalidate) If invalidate is true, the entire volume will be discarded; if false, the volume will be synced and the coherency data will be updated. Changes ======= ver #4: - Removed an extraneous param from kdoc on fscache_relinquish_volume()[3]. ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[2]. - Make the coherency data an arbitrary blob rather than a u64, but don't store it for the moment. ver #2: - Fix error check[1]. - Make a fscache_acquire_volume() return errors, including EBUSY if a conflicting volume cookie already exists. No error is printed now - that's left to the netfs.

fscache: Implement cookie user counting and resource pinning Provide a pair of functions to count the number of users of a cookie (open files, writeback, invalidation, resizing, reads, writes), to obtain and pin resources for the cookie and to prevent culling for the whilst there are users. The first function marks a cookie as being in use: void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, bool will_modify); The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR). If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a whole is withdrawn. The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally, updates the coherency data: void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, const loff_t *object_size); If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is committed. If this removes the last usage on a cookie, the cookie is placed onto an LRU list from which it will be removed and closed after a couple of seconds if it doesn't get reused. This prevents resource overload in the cache - in particular it prevents it from holding too many files open. Changes ======= ver #2: - Fix fscache_unuse_cookie() to use atomic_dec_and_lock() to avoid a potential race if the cookie gets reused before it completes the unusement. - Added missing transition to LRU_DISCARDING state.

fscache: Provide a means to begin an operation Provide a function to begin a read operation: int fscache_begin_read_operation( struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, struct fscache_cookie *cookie) This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly. It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the supplied cookie. This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform synchronisation on the operation. cres->inval_counter is set from the cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the operation. Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in progress in the background. The operations intended to be called by the network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for the cookie to move to the correct state. This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that I/O can resume. Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object to get to a state where it can be used for certain things: bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, enum fscache_want_stage stage); This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits for them to get to an appropriate stage. There's a choice of wanting just some parameters (FSCACHE_WANT_PARAM) or the ability to do I/O (FSCACHE_WANT_READ or FSCACHE_WANT_WRITE).

nfs: Implement cache I/O by accessing the cache directly Move NFS to using fscache DIO API instead of the old upstream I/O API as that has been removed. This is a stopgap solution as the intention is that at sometime in the future, the cache will move to using larger blocks and won't be able to store individual pages in order to deal with the potential for data corruption due to the backing filesystem being able insert/remove bridging blocks of zeros into its extent list[1]. NFS then reads and writes cache pages synchronously and one page at a time. The preferred change would be to use the netfs lib, but the new I/O API can be used directly. It's just that as the cache now needs to track data for itself, caching blocks may exceed page size... This code is somewhat borrowed from my "fallback I/O" patchset[2].

fscache: Implement cookie registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. It is intended that the filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume. To request a cookie, the filesystem should call: struct fscache_cookie * fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, u8 advice, const void *index_key, size_t index_key_len, const void *aux_data, size_t aux_data_len, loff_t object_size) The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL cookie. A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len. This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in the cache. A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be updateable by various functions in later patches. The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately. This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel, though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy relinquishing its cookie. When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call: void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, bool retire) If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately. Changes ======= ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1]. - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of freeing. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0. - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire tracepoint.

fscache: Implement higher-level write I/O interface Provide a higher-level function than fscache_write() to perform a write from an inode's pagecache to the cache, whilst fending off concurrent writes by means of the PG_fscache mark on a page: void fscache_write_to_cache(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, struct address_space *mapping, loff_t start, size_t len, loff_t i_size, netfs_io_terminated_t term_func, void *term_func_priv, bool caching); If caching is false, this function does nothing except call (*term_func)() if given. It assumes that, in such a case, PG_fscache will not have been set on the pages. Otherwise, if caching is true, this function requires the source pages to have had PG_fscache set on them before calling. start and len define the region of the file to be modified and i_size indicates the new file size. The source pages are extracted from the mapping. term_func and term_func_priv work as for fscache_write(). The PG_fscache marks will be cleared at the end of the operation, before term_func is called or the function otherwise returns. There is an additonal helper function to clear the PG_fscache bits from a range of pages: void fscache_clear_page_bits(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, struct address_space *mapping, loff_t start, size_t len, bool caching); If caching is true, the pages to be managed are expected to be located on mapping in the range defined by start and len. If caching is false, it does nothing.

fscache: Implement volume registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow volumes to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. A volume is an index of data storage cache objects. A volume is represented by a volume cookie in the API. A filesystem would typically create a volume for a superblock and then create per-inode cookies within it. To request a volume, the filesystem calls: struct fscache_volume * fscache_acquire_volume(const char *volume_key, const char *cache_name, const void *coherency_data, size_t coherency_len) The volume_key is a printable string used to match the volume in the cache. It should not contain any '/' characters. For AFS, for example, this would be "afs,<cellname>,<volume_id>", e.g. "afs,example.com,523001". The cache_name can be NULL, but if not it should be a string indicating the name of the cache to use if there's more than one available. The coherency data, if given, is an arbitrarily-sized blob that's attached to the volume and is compared when the volume is looked up. If it doesn't match, the old volume is judged to be out of date and it and everything within it is discarded. Acquiring a volume twice concurrently is disallowed, though the function will wait if an old volume cookie is being relinquishing. When a network filesystem has finished with a volume, it should return the volume cookie by calling: void fscache_relinquish_volume(struct fscache_volume *volume, const void *coherency_data, bool invalidate) If invalidate is true, the entire volume will be discarded; if false, the volume will be synced and the coherency data will be updated. Changes ======= ver #4: - Removed an extraneous param from kdoc on fscache_relinquish_volume()[3]. ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[2]. - Make the coherency data an arbitrary blob rather than a u64, but don't store it for the moment. ver #2: - Fix error check[1]. - Make a fscache_acquire_volume() return errors, including EBUSY if a conflicting volume cookie already exists. No error is printed now - that's left to the netfs.

The first function marks a cookie as being in use: void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, bool will_modify); The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR). If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a whole is withdrawn. The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally, updates the coherency data: void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, const loff_t *object_size); If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is committed.

fscache: Implement cookie registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. It is intended that the filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume. To request a cookie, the filesystem should call: struct fscache_cookie * fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, u8 advice, const void *index_key, size_t index_key_len, const void *aux_data, size_t aux_data_len, loff_t object_size) The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL cookie. A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len. This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in the cache. A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be updateable by various functions in later patches. The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately. This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel, though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy relinquishing its cookie. When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call: void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, bool retire) If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately. Changes ======= ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1]. - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of freeing. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0. - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire tracepoint.

fscache: Implement cookie user counting and resource pinning Provide a pair of functions to count the number of users of a cookie (open files, writeback, invalidation, resizing, reads, writes), to obtain and pin resources for the cookie and to prevent culling for the whilst there are users. The first function marks a cookie as being in use: void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, bool will_modify); The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR). If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a whole is withdrawn. The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally, updates the coherency data: void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, const loff_t *object_size); If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is committed. If this removes the last usage on a cookie, the cookie is placed onto an LRU list from which it will be removed and closed after a couple of seconds if it doesn't get reused. This prevents resource overload in the cache - in particular it prevents it from holding too many files open. Changes ======= ver #2: - Fix fscache_unuse_cookie() to use atomic_dec_and_lock() to avoid a potential race if the cookie gets reused before it completes the unusement. - Added missing transition to LRU_DISCARDING state.

If the cookie is marked as being in use, a new cache object will be created if possible and future I/O will use that instead. In-flight I/O should be abandoned (writes) or reconsidered (reads). Each time it is called cookie->inval_counter is incremented and this can be used to detect invalidation at the end of an I/O operation. The coherency data attached to the cookie can be updated and the cookie size should be reset. One flag is available, FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE, which should be used to indicate invalidation due to a DIO write on a file. This will temporarily disable caching for this cookie.

fscache: Provide a means to begin an operation Provide a function to begin a read operation: int fscache_begin_read_operation( struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, struct fscache_cookie *cookie) This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly. It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the supplied cookie. This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform synchronisation on the operation. cres->inval_counter is set from the cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the operation. Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in progress in the background. The operations intended to be called by the network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for the cookie to move to the correct state. This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that I/O can resume. Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object to get to a state where it can be used for certain things: bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, enum fscache_want_stage stage); This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits for them to get to an appropriate stage. There's a choice of wanting just some parameters (FSCACHE_WANT_PARAM) or the ability to do I/O (FSCACHE_WANT_READ or FSCACHE_WANT_WRITE).

fscache: Implement raw I/O interface Provide a pair of functions to perform raw I/O on the cache.

A read operation is sent to the backing filesystem, starting at start_pos within the file. The size of the read is specified by the iterator, as is the location of the output buffer. If there is a hole in the data it can be ignored and left to the backing filesystem to deal with (NETFS_READ_HOLE_IGNORE), a hole at the beginning can be skipped over and the buffer padded with zeros (NETFS_READ_HOLE_CLEAR) or -ENODATA can be given (NETFS_READ_HOLE_FAIL). If term_func is not NULL, the operation may be performed asynchronously. Upon completion, successful or otherwise, (*term_func)() will be called and passed term_func_priv, along with an error or the amount of data transferred. If the op is run asynchronously, fscache_read() will return -EIOCBQUEUED. The second function allows an arbitrary asynchronous direct-IO write to be made against a cache object, though the write should be aligned and sized appropriately for the backing device: int fscache_write(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, loff_t start_pos, struct iov_iter *iter, netfs_io_terminated_t term_func, void *term_func_priv); This works in very similar way to fscache_read(), except that there's no need to deal with holes (they're just overwritten).

nfs: Implement cache I/O by accessing the cache directly Move NFS to using fscache DIO API instead of the old upstream I/O API as that has been removed. This is a stopgap solution as the intention is that at sometime in the future, the cache will move to using larger blocks and won't be able to store individual pages in order to deal with the potential for data corruption due to the backing filesystem being able insert/remove bridging blocks of zeros into its extent list[1]. NFS then reads and writes cache pages synchronously and one page at a time. The preferred change would be to use the netfs lib, but the new I/O API can be used directly. It's just that as the cache now needs to track data for itself, caching blocks may exceed page size... This code is somewhat borrowed from my "fallback I/O" patchset[2].

FS-Cache: Add the FS-Cache netfs API and documentation Add the API for a generic facility (FS-Cache) by which filesystems (such as AFS or NFS) may call on local caching capabilities without having to know anything about how the cache works, or even if there is a cache: +---------+ | | +--------------+ | NFS |--+ | | | | | +-->| CacheFS | +---------+ | +----------+ | | /dev/hda5 | | | | | +--------------+ +---------+ +-->| | | | | | |--+ | AFS |----->| FS-Cache | | | | |--+ +---------+ +-->| | | | | | | +--------------+ +---------+ | +----------+ | | | | | | +-->| CacheFiles | | ISOFS |--+ | /var/cache | | | +--------------+ +---------+ General documentation and documentation of the netfs specific API are provided in addition to the header files. As this patch stands, it is possible to build a filesystem against the facility and attempt to use it. All that will happen is that all requests will be immediately denied as if no cache is present. Further patches will implement the core of the facility. The facility will transfer requests from networking filesystems to appropriate caches if possible, or else gracefully deny them. If this facility is disabled in the kernel configuration, then all its operations will trivially reduce to nothing during compilation. WHY NOT I_MAPPING? ================== I have added my own API to implement caching rather than using i_mapping to do this for a number of reasons. These have been discussed a lot on the LKML and CacheFS mailing lists, but to summarise the basics: (1) Most filesystems don't do hole reportage. Holes in files are treated as blocks of zeros and can't be distinguished otherwise, making it difficult to distinguish blocks that have been read from the network and cached from those that haven't. (2) The backing inode must be fully populated before being exposed to userspace through the main inode because the VM/VFS goes directly to the backing inode and does not interrogate the front inode's VM ops. Therefore: (a) The backing inode must fit entirely within the cache. (b) All backed files currently open must fit entirely within the cache at the same time. (c) A working set of files in total larger than the cache may not be cached. (d) A file may not grow larger than the available space in the cache. (e) A file that's open and cached, and remotely grows larger than the cache is potentially stuffed. (3) Writes go to the backing filesystem, and can only be transferred to the network when the file is closed. (4) There's no record of what changes have been made, so the whole file must be written back. (5) The pages belong to the backing filesystem, and all metadata associated with that page are relevant only to the backing filesystem, and not anything stacked atop it. OVERVIEW ======== FS-Cache provides (or will provide) the following facilities: (1) Caches can be added / removed at any time, even whilst in use. (2) Adds a facility by which tags can be used to refer to caches, even if they're not available yet. (3) More than one cache can be used at once. Caches can be selected explicitly by use of tags. (4) The netfs is provided with an interface that allows either party to withdraw caching facilities from a file (required for (1)). (5) A netfs may annotate cache objects that belongs to it. This permits the storage of coherency maintenance data. (6) Cache objects will be pinnable and space reservations will be possible. (7) The interface to the netfs returns as few errors as possible, preferring rather to let the netfs remain oblivious. (8) Cookies are used to represent indices, files and other objects to the netfs. The simplest cookie is just a NULL pointer - indicating nothing cached there. (9) The netfs is allowed to propose - dynamically - any index hierarchy it desires, though it must be aware that the index search function is recursive, stack space is limited, and indices can only be children of indices. (10) Indices can be used to group files together to reduce key size and to make group invalidation easier. The use of indices may make lookup quicker, but that's cache dependent. (11) Data I/O is effectively done directly to and from the netfs's pages. The netfs indicates that page A is at index B of the data-file represented by cookie C, and that it should be read or written. The cache backend may or may not start I/O on that page, but if it does, a netfs callback will be invoked to indicate completion. The I/O may be either synchronous or asynchronous. (12) Cookies can be "retired" upon release. At this point FS-Cache will mark them as obsolete and the index hierarchy rooted at that point will get recycled. (13) The netfs provides a "match" function for index searches. In addition to saying whether a match was made or not, this can also specify that an entry should be updated or deleted. FS-Cache maintains a virtual index tree in which all indices, files, objects and pages are kept. Bits of this tree may actually reside in one or more caches.

These have different index hierarchies: (*) The NFS primary index will probably contain per-server indices. Each server index is indexed by NFS file handles to get data file objects. Each data file objects can have an array of pages, but may also have further child objects, such as extended attributes and directory entries. Extended attribute objects themselves have page-array contents. (*) The AFS primary index contains per-cell indices. Each cell index contains per-logical-volume indices. Each of volume index contains up to three indices for the read-write, read-only and backup mirrors of those volumes. Each of these contains vnode data file objects, each of which contains an array of pages. The very top index is the FS-Cache master index in which individual netfs's have entries. Any index object may reside in more than one cache, provided it only has index children. Any index with non-index object children will be assumed to only reside in one cache.
