Some of the higher layers like iomap takes inode_lock() when calling
generic_write_sync().
Also writeback already happens from other paths without inode lock,
so it's difficult to say that we really need sync_mapping_buffers() to
take any inode locking here. Having said that, let's add
generic_buffers_fsync/_noflush() implementation in buffer.c with no
inode_lock/unlock() for now so that filesystems like ext2 and
ext4's nojournal mode can use it.
Ext4 when got converted to iomap for direct-io already copied it's own
variant of __generic_file_fsync() without lock.
This patch adds generic_buffers_fsync()
& generic_buffers_fsync_noflush() implementations for use in filesystems
like ext2 & ext4 respectively.
Later we can review other filesystems as well to see if we can make
generic_buffers_fsync/_noflush() which does not take any inode_lock() as
the default path.

It removes several calls to compound_head() as it works directly on folio

Patch series "convert create_page_buffers to folio_create_buffers".
One of the first kernel panic we hit when we try to increase the block
size > 4k is inside create_page_buffers()[1]. Even though buffer.c
function do not support large folios (folios > PAGE_SIZE) at the moment,
these changes are required when we want to remove that constraint.

Patch series "Start converting buffer_heads to use folios".
I was hoping that filesystems would convert from buffer_heads to iomap,
but that's not happening particularly quickly. So the buffer_head
infrastructure needs to be converted from being page-based to being
folio-based.
This patch (of 12):
Buffer heads point to the allocation (ie the folio), not the page. This
is currently the same thing for all filesystems that use buffer heads, so
this is a safe transitional step.

submit_bh/submit_bh_wbc are non-blocking functions which just submit
the bio and return. The caller of submit_bh/submit_bh_wbc needs to wait
on buffer till I/O completion and then check buffer head's b_state field
to know if there was any I/O error.
Hence there is no need for these functions to have any return type.
Even now they always returns 0. Hence drop the return value and make
their return type as void to avoid any confusion.

Current ll_rw_block() helper is fragile because it assumes that locked
buffer means it's under IO which is submitted by some other who holds
the lock, it skip buffer if it failed to get the lock, so it's only
safe on the readahead path. Unfortunately, now that most filesystems
still use this helper mistakenly on the sync metadata read path. There
is no guarantee that the one who holds the buffer lock always submit IO
(e.g. buffer_migrate_folio_norefs() after commit 88dbcbb3a4 ("blkdev:
avoid migration stalls for blkdev pages"), it could lead to false
positive -EIO when submitting reading IO.
This patch add some friendly buffer read helpers to prepare replacing
ll_rw_block() and similar calls. We can only call bh_readahead_[]
helpers for the readahead paths.

Patch series "fs/buffer: remove ll_rw_block()", v2.
ll_rw_block() will skip locked buffer before submitting IO, it assumes
that locked buffer means it is under IO. This assumption is not always
true because we cannot guarantee every buffer lock path would submit IO.
After commit 88dbcbb3a4 ("blkdev: avoid migration stalls for blkdev
pages"), buffer_migrate_folio_norefs() becomes one exceptional case, and
there may be others. So ll_rw_block() is not safe on the sync read path,
we could get false positive EIO return value when filesystem reading
metadata. It seems that it could be only used on the readahead path.
Unfortunately, many filesystem misuse the ll_rw_block() on the sync read
path. This patch set just remove ll_rw_block() and add new friendly
helpers, which could prevent false positive EIO on the read metadata path.
Thanks for the suggestion from Jan, the original discussion is at [1].
patch 1: remove unused helpers in fs/buffer.c

Commit d4252071b9 ("add barriers to buffer_uptodate and
set_buffer_uptodate") added proper memory barriers to the buffer head
BH_Uptodate bit, so that anybody who tests a buffer for being up-to-date
will be guaranteed to actually see initialized state.
However, that commit didn't _just_ add the memory barrier, it also ended
up dropping the "was it already set" logic that the BUFFER_FNS() macro
had.
That's conceptually the right thing for a generic "this is a memory
barrier" operation, but in the case of the buffer contents, we really
only care about the memory barrier for the _first_ time we set the bit,
in that the only memory ordering protection we need is to avoid anybody
seeing uninitialized memory contents.
Any other access ordering wouldn't be about the BH_Uptodate bit anyway,
and would require some other proper lock (typically BH_Lock or the folio
lock). A reader that races with somebody invalidating the buffer head
isn't an issue wrt the memory ordering, it's a serialization issue.
Now, you'd think that the buffer head operations don't matter in this
day and age (and I certainly thought so), but apparently some loads
still end up being heavy users of buffer heads. In particular, the
kernel test robot reported that not having this bit access optimization
in place caused a noticeable direct IO performance regression on ext4:
fxmark.ssd_ext4_no_jnl_DWTL_54_directio.works/sec -26.5% regression
although you presumably need a fast disk and a lot of cores to actually
notice.

There are several places in the kernel where wait_on_bit is not followed
by a memory barrier (for example, in drivers/md/dm-bufio.c:new_read).
On architectures with weak memory ordering, it may happen that memory
accesses that follow wait_on_bit are reordered before wait_on_bit and
they may return invalid data.
Fix this class of bugs by introducing a new function "test_bit_acquire"
that works like test_bit, but has acquire memory ordering semantics.

Let's have a look at this piece of code in __bread_slow:
get_bh(bh);
bh->b_end_io = end_buffer_read_sync;
submit_bh(REQ_OP_READ, 0, bh);
wait_on_buffer(bh);
if (buffer_uptodate(bh))
return bh;
Neither wait_on_buffer nor buffer_uptodate contain any memory barrier.
Consequently, if someone calls sb_bread and then reads the buffer data,
the read of buffer data may be executed before wait_on_buffer(bh) on
architectures with weak memory ordering and it may return invalid data.
Fix this bug by adding a memory barrier to set_buffer_uptodate and an
acquire barrier to buffer_uptodate (in a similar way as
folio_test_uptodate and folio_mark_uptodate).

The kernel test robot reported the regression of fio.write_iops[1] with
commit 8cc621d2f4 ("mm: fs: invalidate BH LRU during page migration").
Since lru_add_drain is called frequently, invalidate bh_lrus there could
increase bh_lrus cache miss ratio, which needs more IO in the end.
This patch moves the bh_lrus invalidation from the hot path( e.g.,
zap_page_range, pagevec_release) to cold path(i.e., lru_add_drain_all,
lru_cache_disable).
Zhengjun Xing confirmed

Pages containing buffer_heads that are in one of the per-CPU buffer_head
LRU caches will be pinned and thus cannot be migrated. This can prevent
CMA allocations from succeeding, which are often used on platforms with
co-processors (such as a DSP) that can only use physically contiguous
memory. It can also prevent memory hot-unplugging from succeeding,
which involves migrating at least MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes of memory,
which ranges from 8 MiB to 1 GiB based on the architecture in use.
Correspondingly, invalidate the BH LRU caches before a migration starts
and stop any buffer_head from being cached in the LRU caches, until
migration has finished.

Since commit a8ac900b81 ("ext4: use non-movable memory for the
superblock") buffers for ext4 superblock were allocated using
the sb_bread_unmovable() helper which allocated buffer heads
out of non-movable memory blocks. It was necessarily to not block
page migrations and do not cause cma allocation failures.
However commit 85c8f176a6 ("ext4: preload block group descriptors")
broke this by introducing pre-reading of the ext4 superblock.
The problem is that __breadahead() is using __getblk() underneath,
which allocates buffer heads out of movable memory.
It resulted in page migration failures I've seen on a machine
with an ext4 partition and a preallocated cma area.
Fix this by introducing sb_breadahead_unmovable() and
__breadahead_gfp() helpers which use non-movable memory for buffer
head allocations and use them for the ext4 superblock readahead.

Bit spinlocks are problematic if PREEMPT_RT is enabled, because they
disable preemption, which is undesired for latency reasons and breaks when
regular spinlocks are taken within the bit_spinlock locked region because
regular spinlocks are converted to 'sleeping spinlocks' on RT.
PREEMPT_RT replaced the bit spinlocks with regular spinlocks to avoid this
problem. The replacement was done conditionaly at compile time, but
Christoph requested to do an unconditional conversion.
Jan suggested to move the spinlock into a existing padding hole which
avoids a size increase of struct buffer_head on production kernels.
As a benefit the lock gains lockdep coverage.

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

When using FAT on a block device which supports rw_page, we can hit
BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in try_to_free_buffers(). This is because we
call clean_buffers() after unlocking the page we've written. Introduce
a new clean_page_buffers() which cleans all buffers associated with a
page and call it from within bdev_write_page().

Instead of adding weird retry logic in that function, utilize
__GFP_NOFAIL to ensure that the vm takes care of handling any
potential retries appropriately. This means we don't have to
call free_more_memory() from here.
