an arbitrary-sized folio, and move it to be a common helper.

Starting with commit 5d8edfb900 ("iomap: Copy larger chunks from
userspace"), iomap_write_iter() can get into endless loop. This can
be reproduced with LTP writev07 which uses partially valid iovecs:
struct iovec wr_iovec[] = {
{ buffer, 64 },
{ bad_addr, 64 },
{ buffer + 64, 64 },
{ buffer + 64 * 2, 64 },
};
commit bc1bb416bb ("generic_perform_write()/iomap_write_actor():
saner logics for short copy") previously introduced the logic, which
made short copy retry in next iteration with amount of "bytes" it
managed to copy:
if (unlikely(status == 0)) {
/*
* A short copy made iomap_write_end() reject the
* thing entirely. Might be memory poisoning
* halfway through, might be a race with munmap,
* might be severe memory pressure.
*/
if (copied)
bytes = copied;
However, since 5d8edfb900 "bytes" is no longer carried into next
iteration, because it is now always initialized at the beginning of
the loop. And for iov_iter_count < PAGE_SIZE, "bytes" ends up with
same value as previous iteration, making the loop retry same copy
over and over, which leads to writev07 testcase hanging.
Make next iteration retry with amount of bytes we managed to copy.

Patch series "Add folio_end_read", v2.
The core of this patchset is the new folio_end_read() call which
filesystems can use when finishing a page cache read instead of separate
calls to mark the folio uptodate and unlock it. As an illustration of its
use, I converted ext4, iomap & mpage; more can be converted.
I think that's useful by itself, but the interesting optimisation is that
we can implement that with a single XOR instruction that sets the uptodate
bit, clears the lock bit, tests the waiter bit and provides a write memory
barrier. That removes one memory barrier and one atomic instruction from
each page read, which seems worth doing. That's in patch 15.
The last two patches could be a separate series, but basically we can do
the same thing with the writeback flag that we do with the unlock flag;
clear it and test the waiters bit at the same time.
This patch (of 17):
This is really preparation for the next patch, but it lets us call
folio_mark_uptodate() in just one place instead of two.

Prior to commit a01b8f2252, we would always read in the contents of a
!uptodate folio prior to writing userspace data into the folio,
allocated a folio state object, etc. Ritesh introduced an optimization
that skips all of that if the write would cover the entire folio.
Unfortunately, the optimization misses the unshare case, where we always
have to read in the folio contents since there isn't a data buffer
supplied by userspace. This can result in stale kernel memory exposure
if userspace issues a FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE call on part of a shared
file that isn't already cached.
This was caught by observing fstests regressions in the "unshare around"
mechanism that is used for unaligned writes to a reflinked realtime
volume when the realtime extent size is larger than 1FSB, though I think
it applies to any shared file.

When filesystem blocksize is less than folio size (either with
mapping_large_folio_support() or with blocksize < pagesize) and when the
folio is uptodate in pagecache, then even a byte write can cause
an entire folio to be written to disk during writeback. This happens
because we currently don't have a mechanism to track per-block dirty
state within struct iomap_folio_state. We currently only track uptodate
state.
This patch implements support for tracking per-block dirty state in
iomap_folio_state->state bitmap. This should help improve the filesystem
write performance and help reduce write amplification.
Performance testing of below fio workload reveals ~16x performance
improvement using nvme with XFS (4k blocksize) on Power (64K pagesize)
FIO reported write bw scores improved from around ~28 MBps to ~452 MBps.

We dont need to allocate an ifs in ->write_begin() for writes where the
position and length completely overlap with the given folio.
Therefore, such cases are skipped.
Currently when the folio is uptodate, we only allocate ifs at writeback
time (in iomap_writepage_map()). This is ok until now, but when we are
going to add support for per-block dirty state bitmap in ifs, this
could cause some performance degradation. The reason is that if we don't
allocate ifs during ->write_begin(), then we will never mark the
necessary dirty bits in ->write_end() call. And we will have to mark all
the bits as dirty at the writeback time, that could cause the same write
amplification and performance problems as it is now.

This patch factors iomap_write_delalloc_punch() function out. This function
is resposible for actual punch out operation.
The reason for doing this is, to avoid deep indentation when we bring
punch-out of individual non-dirty blocks within a dirty folio in a later
patch (which adds per-block dirty status handling to iomap) to avoid
delalloc block leak.

iomap_folio_state (ifs) can be derived directly from the folio, making it
unnecessary to pass "ifs" as an argument to iomap_set_range_uptodate().
This patch eliminates "ifs" argument from iomap_set_range_uptodate()
function.
Also, the definition of iomap_set_range_uptodate() and
ifs_set_range_uptodate() functions are moved above ifs_alloc().
In upcoming patches, we plan to introduce additional helper routines for
handling dirty state, with the intention of consolidating all of "ifs"

struct iomap_page actually tracks per-block state of a folio.
Hence it make sense to rename some of these function names and data
structures for e.g.
1. struct iomap_page (iop) -> struct iomap_folio_state (ifs)
2. iomap_page_create() -> ifs_alloc()
3. iomap_page_release() -> ifs_free()
4. iomap_iop_set_range_uptodate() -> ifs_set_range_uptodate()
5. to_iomap_page() -> folio->private
Since in later patches we are also going to add per-block dirty state
tracking to iomap_folio_state. Hence this patch also renames "uptodate"
& "uptodate_lock" members of iomap_folio_state to "state" and"state_lock".
We don't really need to_iomap_page() function, instead directly open code
it as folio->private;

we do a partial write to the folio, then we truncate the folio), which

This particular combination of flags is used by most filesystems

(grab_cache_page_write_begin()), but I think that just having specialised
flags is enough. It certainly helps the few places that have been
converted from grab_cache_page_write_begin() to __filemap_get_folio().

Instead of returning NULL for all errors, distinguish between:
- no entry found and not asked to allocated (-ENOENT)
- failed to allocate memory (-ENOMEM)
- would block (-EAGAIN)
so that callers don't have to guess the error based on the passed in
flags.
Also pass through the error through the direct callers: filemap_get_folio,
filemap_lock_folio filemap_grab_folio and filemap_get_incore_folio.

Patch series "Convert writepage_t to use a folio".
More folioisation. I split out the mpage work from everything else
because it completely dominated the patch, but some implementations I just
converted outright.
This patch (of 2):
We always write back an entire folio, but that's currently passed as the
head page. Convert all filesystems that use write_cache_pages() to expect
a folio instead of a page.

When an iomap defines a ->page_done() handler in its page_ops, delegate
unlocking the folio and putting the folio reference to that handler.
This allows to fix a race between journaled data writes and folio
writeback in gfs2: before this change, gfs2_iomap_page_done() was called
after unlocking the folio, so writeback could start writing back the
folio's buffers before they could be marked for writing to the journal.
Also, try_to_free_buffers() could free the buffers before
gfs2_iomap_page_done() was done adding the buffers to the current
current transaction. With this change, gfs2_iomap_page_done() adds the
buffers to the current transaction while the folio is still locked, so
the problems described above can no longer occur.
The only current user of ->page_done() is gfs2, so other filesystems are
not affected. To catch out any out-of-tree users, switch from a page to
a folio in ->page_done().

A recent multithreaded write data corruption has been uncovered in
the iomap write code. The core of the problem is partial folio
writes can be flushed to disk while a new racing write can map it
and fill the rest of the page:
writeback new write
allocate blocks
blocks are unwritten
submit IO
.....
map blocks
iomap indicates UNWRITTEN range
loop {
lock folio
copyin data
.....
IO completes
runs unwritten extent conv
blocks are marked written
<iomap now stale>
get next folio
}
Now add memory pressure such that memory reclaim evicts the
partially written folio that has already been written to disk.
When the new write finally gets to the last partial page of the new
write, it does not find it in cache, so it instantiates a new page,
sees the iomap is unwritten, and zeros the part of the page that
it does not have data from. This overwrites the data on disk that
was originally written.
The full description of the corruption mechanism can be found here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20220817093627.GZ3600936@dread.disaster.area/
To solve this problem, we need to check whether the iomap is still
valid after we lock each folio during the write. We have to do it
after we lock the page so that we don't end up with state changes
occurring while we wait for the folio to be locked.
Hence we need a mechanism to be able to check that the cached iomap
is still valid (similar to what we already do in buffered
writeback), and we need a way for ->begin_write to back out and
tell the high level iomap iterator that we need to remap the
remaining write range.
The iomap needs to grow some storage for the validity cookie that
the filesystem provides to travel with the iomap. XFS, in
particular, also needs to know some more information about what the
iomap maps (attribute extents rather than file data extents) to for
the validity cookie to cover all the types of iomaps we might need
to validate.

iomap_file_buffered_write_punch_delalloc() currently invalidates the
page cache over the unused range of the delalloc extent that was
allocated. While the write allocated the delalloc extent, it does
not own it exclusively as the write does not hold any locks that
prevent either writeback or mmap page faults from changing the state
of either the page cache or the extent state backing this range.
Whilst xfs_bmap_punch_delalloc_range() already handles races in
extent conversion - it will only punch out delalloc extents and it
ignores any other type of extent - the page cache truncate does not
discriminate between data written by this write or some other task.
As a result, truncating the page cache can result in data corruption
if the write races with mmap modifications to the file over the same
range.
generic/346 exercises this workload, and if we randomly fail writes
(as will happen when iomap gets stale iomap detection later in the
patchset), it will randomly corrupt the file data because it removes
data written by mmap() in the same page as the write() that failed.
Hence we do not want to punch out the page cache over the range of
the extent we failed to write to - what we actually need to do is
detect the ranges that have dirty data in cache over them and *not
punch them out*.
To do this, we have to walk the page cache over the range of the
delalloc extent we want to remove. This is made complex by the fact
we have to handle partially up-to-date folios correctly and this can
happen even when the FSB size == PAGE_SIZE because we now support
multi-page folios in the page cache.
Because we are only interested in discovering the edges of data
ranges in the page cache (i.e. hole-data boundaries) we can make use
of mapping_seek_hole_data() to find those transitions in the page
cache. As we hold the invalidate_lock, we know that the boundaries
are not going to change while we walk the range. This interface is
also byte-based and is sub-page block aware, so we can find the data
ranges in the cache based on byte offsets rather than page, folio or
fs block sized chunks. This greatly simplifies the logic of finding
dirty cached ranges in the page cache.
Once we've identified a range that contains cached data, we can then
iterate the range folio by folio. This allows us to determine if the
data is dirty and hence perform the correct delalloc extent punching
operations. The seek interface we use to iterate data ranges will
give us sub-folio start/end granularity, so we may end up looking up
the same folio multiple times as the seek interface iterates across
each discontiguous data region in the folio.

Because that's what Christoph wants for this error handling path
only XFS uses.
It requires a new iomap export for handling errors over delalloc
ranges. This is basically the XFS code as is stands, but even though
Christoph wants this as iomap funcitonality, we still have
to call it from the filesystem specific ->iomap_end callback, and
call into the iomap code with yet another filesystem specific
callback to punch the delalloc extent within the defined ranges.
