[ Upstream commit 0201ebf274 ]
Patch series "mm, netfs, fscache: Stop read optimisation when folio
removed from pagecache", v7.
This fixes an optimisation in fscache whereby we don't read from the cache
for a particular file until we know that there's data there that we don't
have in the pagecache. The problem is that I'm no longer using PG_fscache
(aka PG_private_2) to indicate that the page is cached and so I don't get
a notification when a cached page is dropped from the pagecache.
The first patch merges some folio_has_private() and
filemap_release_folio() pairs and introduces a helper,
folio_needs_release(), to indicate if a release is required.
The second patch is the actual fix. Following Willy's suggestions[1], it
adds an AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag to an address_space that will make
filemap_release_folio() always call ->release_folio(), even if
PG_private/PG_private_2 aren't set. folio_needs_release() is altered to
add a check for this.
This patch (of 2):
Make filemap_release_folio() check folio_has_private(). Then, in most
cases, where a call to folio_has_private() is immediately followed by a
call to filemap_release_folio(), we can get rid of the test in the pair.
There are a couple of sites in mm/vscan.c that this can't so easily be
done. In shrink_folio_list(), there are actually three cases (something
different is done for incompletely invalidated buffers), but
filemap_release_folio() elides two of them.
In shrink_active_list(), we don't have have the folio lock yet, so the
check allows us to avoid locking the page unnecessarily.
A wrapper function to check if a folio needs release is provided for those
places that still need to do it in the mm/ directory. This will acquire
additional parts to the condition in a future patch.
After this, the only remaining caller of folio_has_private() outside of
mm/ is a check in fuse.

Primarily this series converts some of the address_space operations
to take a folio instead of a page.
->is_partially_uptodate() takes a folio instead of a page and changes the
type of the 'from' and 'count' arguments to make it obvious they're bytes.
->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a similar type change.
->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio()
->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the address_space as
an argument.
There are a couple of other misc changes up front that weren't worth

Since the removal of the Xen tmem driver in 2019, the cleancache hooks
are entirely unused, as are large parts of frontswap. This series
against linux-next (with the folio changes included) removes
cleancaches, and cuts down frontswap to the bits actually used by zswap.
This patch (of 13):
The cleancache subsystem is unused since the removal of Xen tmem driver
in commit 814bbf49dc ("xen: remove tmem driver").

Historically (pre-2.5), the inode shrinker used to reclaim only empty
inodes and skip over those that still contained page cache. This caused
problems on highmem hosts: struct inode could put fill lowmem zones
before the cache was getting reclaimed in the highmem zones.
To address this, the inode shrinker started to strip page cache to
facilitate reclaiming lowmem. However, this comes with its own set of
problems: the shrinkers may drop actively used page cache just because
the inodes are not currently open or dirty - think working with a large
git tree. It further doesn't respect cgroup memory protection settings
and can cause priority inversions between containers.
Nowadays, the page cache also holds non-resident info for evicted cache
pages in order to detect refaults. We've come to rely heavily on this
data inside reclaim for protecting the cache workingset and driving swap
behavior. We also use it to quantify and report workload health through
psi. The latter in turn is used for fleet health monitoring, as well as
driving automated memory sizing of workloads and containers, proactive
reclaim and memory offloading schemes.
The consequences of dropping page cache prematurely is that we're seeing
subtle and not-so-subtle failures in all of the above-mentioned
scenarios, with the workload generally entering unexpected thrashing
states while losing the ability to reliably detect it.
To fix this on non-highmem systems at least, going back to rotating
inodes on the LRU isn't feasible. We've tried (commit a76cf1a474
("mm: don't reclaim inodes with many attached pages")) and failed
(commit 69056ee6a8 ("Revert "mm: don't reclaim inodes with many
attached pages"")).
The issue is mostly that shrinker pools attract pressure based on their
size, and when objects get skipped the shrinkers remember this as
deferred reclaim work. This accumulates excessive pressure on the
remaining inodes, and we can quickly eat into heavily used ones, or
dirty ones that require IO to reclaim, when there potentially is plenty
of cold, clean cache around still.
Instead, this patch keeps populated inodes off the inode LRU in the
first place - just like an open file or dirty state would. An otherwise
clean and unused inode then gets queued when the last cache entry
disappears. This solves the problem without reintroducing the reclaim
issues, and generally is a bit more scalable than having to wade through
potentially hundreds of thousands of busy inodes.
Locking is a bit tricky because the locks protecting the inode state
(i_lock) and the inode LRU (lru_list.lock) don't nest inside the
irq-safe page cache lock (i_pages.xa_lock). Page cache deletions are
serialized through i_lock, taken before the i_pages lock, to make sure
depopulated inodes are queued reliably. Additions may race with
deletions, but we'll check again in the shrinker. If additions race
with the shrinker itself, we're protected by the i_lock: if find_inode()
or iput() win, the shrinker will bail on the elevated i_count or
I_REFERENCED; if the shrinker wins and goes ahead with the inode, it
will set I_FREEING and inhibit further igets(), which will cause the
other side to create a new instance of the inode instead.

pginodesteal is supposed to capture the impact that inode reclaim has on
the page cache state. Currently, it doesn't consider shadow pages that
get dropped this way, even though this can have a significant impact on
paging behavior, memory pressure calculations etc.
To improve visibility into these effects, make sure shadow pages get
counted when they get dropped through inode reclaim.
This changes the return value semantics of invalidate_mapping_pages()
semantics slightly, but the only two users are the inode shrinker itsel
and a usb driver that logs it for debugging purposes.

Currently, serializing operations such as page fault, read, or readahead
against hole punching is rather difficult. The basic race scheme is
like:
fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) read / fault / ..
truncate_inode_pages_range()
<create pages in page
cache here>
<update fs block mapping and free blocks>
Now the problem is in this way read / page fault / readahead can
instantiate pages in page cache with potentially stale data (if blocks
get quickly reused). Avoiding this race is not simple - page locks do
not work because we want to make sure there are *no* pages in given
range. inode->i_rwsem does not work because page fault happens under
mmap_sem which ranks below inode->i_rwsem. Also using it for reads makes
the performance for mixed read-write workloads suffer.
So create a new rw_semaphore in the address_space - invalidate_lock -
that protects adding of pages to page cache for page faults / reads /
readahead.

There is a race between THP unmapping and truncation, when truncate sees
pmd_none() and skips the entry, after munmap's zap_huge_pmd() cleared
it, but before its page_remove_rmap() gets to decrement
compound_mapcount: generating false "BUG: Bad page cache" reports that
the page is still mapped when deleted. This commit fixes that, but not
in the way I hoped.
The first attempt used try_to_unmap(page, TTU_SYNC|TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK)
instead of unmap_mapping_range() in truncate_cleanup_page(): it has
often been an annoyance that we usually call unmap_mapping_range() with
no pages locked, but there apply it to a single locked page.
try_to_unmap() looks more suitable for a single locked page.
However, try_to_unmap_one() contains a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!pvmw.pte,page):
it is used to insert THP migration entries, but not used to unmap THPs.
Copy zap_huge_pmd() and add THP handling now? Perhaps, but their TLB
needs are different, I'm too ignorant of the DAX cases, and couldn't
decide how far to go for anon+swap. Set that aside.
The second attempt took a different tack: make no change in truncate.c,
but modify zap_huge_pmd() to insert an invalidated huge pmd instead of
clearing it initially, then pmd_clear() between page_remove_rmap() and
unlocking at the end. Nice. But powerpc blows that approach out of the
water, with its serialize_against_pte_lookup(), and interesting pgtable
usage. It would need serious help to get working on powerpc (with a
minor optimization issue on s390 too). Set that aside.
Just add an "if (page_mapped(page)) synchronize_rcu();" or other such
delay, after unmapping in truncate_cleanup_page()? Perhaps, but though
that's likely to reduce or eliminate the number of incidents, it would
give less assurance of whether we had identified the problem correctly.
This successful iteration introduces "unmap_mapping_page(page)" instead
of try_to_unmap(), and goes the usual unmap_mapping_range_tree() route,
with an addition to details. Then zap_pmd_range() watches for this
case, and does spin_unlock(pmd_lock) if so - just like
page_vma_mapped_walk() now does in the PVMW_SYNC case. Not pretty, but
safe.
Note that unmap_mapping_page() is doing a VM_BUG_ON(!PageLocked) to
assert its interface; but currently that's only used to make sure that
page->mapping is stable, and zap_pmd_range() doesn't care if the page is
locked or not. Along these lines, in invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
move the initial unmap_mapping_range() out from under page lock, before
then calling unmap_mapping_page() under page lock if still mapped.

Patch series "Remove nrexceptional tracking", v2.
We actually use nrexceptional for very little these days. It's a minor
pain to keep in sync with nrpages, but the pain becomes much bigger with
the THP patches because we don't know how many indices a shadow entry
occupies. It's easier to just remove it than keep it accurate.
Also, we save 8 bytes per inode which is nothing to sneeze at; on my
laptop, it would improve shmem_inode_cache from 22 to 23 objects per
16kB, and inode_cache from 26 to 27 objects. Combined, that saves
a megabyte of memory from a combined usage of 25MB for both caches.
Unfortunately, ext4 doesn't cross a magic boundary, so it doesn't save
any memory for ext4.
This patch (of 4):
Instead of checking the two counters (nrpages and nrexceptional), we can
just check whether i_pages is empty.

We have three functions (shmem_undo_range(), truncate_inode_pages_range()
and invalidate_mapping_pages()) which want exactly this function, so add
it to filemap.c. Before this patch, shmem_undo_range() would split any
compound page which overlaps either end of the range being punched in both
the first and second loops through the address space. After this patch,
that functionality is left for the second loop, which is arguably more
appropriate since the first loop is supposed to run through all the pages
quickly, and splitting a page can sleep.

Kernel-doc markups should use this format:

Fix some issues on mm files:
1) The definition for get_user_pages_locked() doesn't follow it. Also,
it expects a short descrpition at the header, followed by a long one,
after the parameters. Fix it.
2) Kernel-doc requires that a kernel-doc markup to be immediately below
the function prototype, as otherwise it will rename it. So, move
get_pfnblock_flags_mask() description to the right place.
3) Make invalidate_mapping_pagevec() to also follow the expected

Our users reported that there're some random latency spikes when their RT
process is running. Finally we found that latency spike is caused by
FADV_DONTNEED. Which may call lru_add_drain_all() to drain LRU cache on
remote CPUs, and then waits the per-cpu work to complete. The wait time
is uncertain, which may be tens millisecond.
That behavior is unreasonable, because this process is bound to a specific
CPU and the file is only accessed by itself, IOW, there should be no
pagecache pages on a per-cpu pagevec of a remote CPU. That unreasonable
behavior is partially caused by the wrong comparation of the number of
invalidated pages and the number of the target. For example,
if (count < (end_index - start_index + 1))
The count above is how many pages were invalidated in the local CPU, and
(end_index - start_index + 1) is how many pages should be invalidated.
The usage of (end_index - start_index + 1) is incorrect, because they are
virtual addresses, which may not mapped to pages. Besides that, there may
be holes between start and end. So we'd better check whether there are
still pages on per-cpu pagevec after drain the local cpu, and then decide
whether or not to call lru_add_drain_all().
After I applied it with a hotfix to our production environment, most of
the lru_add_drain_all() can be avoided.
