1cb039f3dc bdi: replace BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES with a queue and a sb flag
The BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES is one of the few bits of information in the
backing_dev_info shared between the block drivers and the writeback code.
To help untangling the dependency replace it with a queue flag and a
superblock flag derived from it.  This also helps with the case of e.g.
a file system requiring stable writes due to its own checksumming, but
not forcing it on other users of the block device like the swap code.

One downside is that we an't support the stable_pages_required bdi
attribute in sysfs anymore.  It is replaced with a queue attribute which
also is writable for easier testing.

d866dbf617 blkcg: rename blkcg->cgwb_refcnt to ->online_pin and always use it
blkcg->cgwb_refcnt is used to delay blkcg offlining so that blkgs
don't get offlined while there are active cgwbs on them.  However, it
ends up making offlining unordered sometimes causing parents to be
offlined before children.

To fix it, we want child blkcgs to pin the parents' online states
turning the refcnt into a more generic online pinning mechanism.

In prepartion,

* blkcg->cgwb_refcnt -> blkcg->online_pin
* blkcg_cgwb_get/put() -> blkcg_pin/unpin_online()
* Take them out of CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK

68f23b8906 memcg: fix a crash in wb_workfn when a device disappears
Without memcg, there is a one-to-one mapping between the bdi and
bdi_writeback structures.  In this world, things are fairly
straightforward; the first thing bdi_unregister() does is to shutdown
the bdi_writeback structure (or wb), and part of that writeback ensures
that no other work queued against the wb, and that the wb is fully
drained.

With memcg, however, there is a one-to-many relationship between the bdi
and bdi_writeback structures; that is, there are multiple wb objects
which can all point to a single bdi.  There is a refcount which prevents
the bdi object from being released (and hence, unregistered).  So in
theory, the bdi_unregister() *should* only get called once its refcount
goes to zero (bdi_put will drop the refcount, and when it is zero,
release_bdi gets called, which calls bdi_unregister).

Unfortunately, del_gendisk() in block/gen_hd.c never got the memo about
the Brave New memcg World, and calls bdi_unregister directly.  It does
this without informing the file system, or the memcg code, or anything
else.  This causes the root wb associated with the bdi to be
unregistered, but none of the memcg-specific wb's are shutdown.  So when
one of these wb's are woken up to do delayed work, they try to
dereference their wb->bdi->dev to fetch the device name, but
unfortunately bdi->dev is now NULL, thanks to the bdi_unregister()
called by del_gendisk().  As a result, *boom*.

Fortunately, it looks like the rest of the writeback path is perfectly
happy with bdi->dev and bdi->owner being NULL, so the simplest fix is to
create a bdi_dev_name() function which can handle bdi->dev being NULL.
This also allows us to bulletproof the writeback tracepoints to prevent
them from dereferencing a NULL pointer and crashing the kernel if one is
tracing with memcg's enabled, and an iSCSI device dies or a USB storage
stick is pulled.

The most common way of triggering this will be hotremoval of a device
while writeback with memcg enabled is going on.  It was triggering
several times a day in a heavily loaded production environment.

a2b90f1121 bdi: Do not use freezable workqueue
A removable block device, such as NVMe or SSD connected over Thunderbolt
can be hot-removed any time including when the system is suspended. When
device is hot-removed during suspend and the system gets resumed, kernel
first resumes devices and then thaws the userspace including freezable
workqueues. What happens in that case is that the NVMe driver notices
that the device is unplugged and removes it from the system. This ends
up calling bdi_unregister() for the gendisk which then schedules
wb_workfn() to be run one more time.

However, since the bdi_wq is still frozen flush_delayed_work() call in
wb_shutdown() blocks forever halting system resume process. User sees
this as hang as nothing is happening anymore.

Triggering sysrq-w reveals this:

  Workqueue: nvme-wq nvme_remove_dead_ctrl_work [nvme]

This is not limited to NVMes so exactly same issue can be reproduced by
hot-removing SSD (over Thunderbolt) while the system is suspended.

Prevent this from happening by removing WQ_FREEZABLE from bdi_wq.

walk is racing aginst tree rebalance operations.

7fc5854f8c writeback: synchronize sync(2) against cgroup writeback membership switches
sync_inodes_sb() can race against cgwb (cgroup writeback) membership
switches and fail to writeback some inodes.  For example, if an inode
switches to another wb while sync_inodes_sb() is in progress, the new
wb might not be visible to bdi_split_work_to_wbs() at all or the inode
might jump from a wb which hasn't issued writebacks yet to one which
already has.

This patch adds backing_dev_info->wb_switch_rwsem to synchronize cgwb
switch path against sync_inodes_sb() so that sync_inodes_sb() is
guaranteed to see all the target wbs and inodes can't jump wbs to
escape syncing.

59b57717ff blkcg: delay blkg destruction until after writeback has finished
Currently, blkcg destruction relies on a sequence of events:
  1. Destruction starts. blkcg_css_offline() is called and blkgs
     release their reference to the blkcg. This immediately destroys
     the cgwbs (writeback).
  2. With blkgs giving up their reference, the blkcg ref count should
     become zero and eventually call blkcg_css_free() which finally
     frees the blkcg.

Jiufei Xue reported that there is a race between blkcg_bio_issue_check()
and cgroup_rmdir(). To remedy this, blkg destruction becomes contingent
on the completion of all writeback associated with the blkcg. A count of
the number of cgwbs is maintained and once that goes to zero, blkg
destruction can follow. This should prevent premature blkg destruction
related to writeback.

The new process for blkcg cleanup is as follows:
  1. Destruction starts. blkcg_css_offline() is called which offlines
     writeback. Blkg destruction is delayed on the cgwb_refcnt count to
     avoid punting potentially large amounts of outstanding writeback
     to root while maintaining any ongoing policies. Here, the base
     cgwb_refcnt is put back.
  2. When the cgwb_refcnt becomes zero, blkcg_destroy_blkgs() is called
     and handles destruction of blkgs. This is where the css reference
     held by each blkg is released.
  3. Once the blkcg ref count goes to zero, blkcg_css_free() is called.
     This finally frees the blkg.

It seems in the past blk-throttle didn't do the most understandable
things with taking data from a blkg while associating with current. So,
the simplification and unification of what blk-throttle is doing caused
this.

3ee7e8697d bdi: Fix another oops in wb_workfn()
syzbot is reporting NULL pointer dereference at wb_workfn() [1] due to
wb->bdi->dev being NULL. And Dmitry confirmed that wb->state was
WB_shutting_down after wb->bdi->dev became NULL. This indicates that
unregister_bdi() failed to call wb_shutdown() on one of wb objects.

The problem is in cgwb_bdi_unregister() which does cgwb_kill() and thus
drops bdi's reference to wb structures before going through the list of
wbs again and calling wb_shutdown() on each of them. This way the loop
iterating through all wbs can easily miss a wb if that wb has already
passed through cgwb_remove_from_bdi_list() called from wb_shutdown()
from cgwb_release_workfn() and as a result fully shutdown bdi although
wb_workfn() for this wb structure is still running. In fact there are
also other ways cgwb_bdi_unregister() can race with
cgwb_release_workfn() leading e.g. to use-after-free issues:

CPU1                            CPU2
                                cgwb_bdi_unregister()
                                  cgwb_kill(*slot);

cgwb_release()
  queue_work(cgwb_release_wq, &wb->release_work);
cgwb_release_workfn()
                                  wb = list_first_entry(&bdi->wb_list, ...)
                                  spin_unlock_irq(&cgwb_lock);
  wb_shutdown(wb);
  ...
  kfree_rcu(wb, rcu);
                                  wb_shutdown(wb); -> oops use-after-free

We solve these issues by synchronizing writeback structure shutdown from
cgwb_bdi_unregister() with cgwb_release_workfn() using a new mutex. That
way we also no longer need synchronization using WB_shutting_down as the
mutex provides it for CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK case and without
CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK wb_shutdown() can be called only once from
bdi_unregister().

f183464684 bdi: Move cgroup bdi_writeback to a dedicated low concurrency workqueue
From 0aa2e9b921d6db71150633ff290199554f0842a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
Date: Wed, 23 May 2018 10:29:00 -0700

cgwb_release() punts the actual release to cgwb_release_workfn() on
system_wq.  Depending on the number of cgroups or block devices, there
can be a lot of cgwb_release_workfn() in flight at the same time.

We're periodically seeing close to 256 kworkers getting stuck with the
following stack trace and overtime the entire system gets stuck.

  [<ffffffff810ee40c>] _synchronize_rcu_expedited.constprop.72+0x2fc/0x330
  [<ffffffff810ee634>] synchronize_rcu_expedited+0x24/0x30
  [<ffffffff811ccf23>] bdi_unregister+0x53/0x290
  [<ffffffff811cd1e9>] release_bdi+0x89/0xc0
  [<ffffffff811cd645>] wb_exit+0x85/0xa0
  [<ffffffff811cdc84>] cgwb_release_workfn+0x54/0xb0
  [<ffffffff810a68d0>] process_one_work+0x150/0x410
  [<ffffffff810a71fd>] worker_thread+0x6d/0x520
  [<ffffffff810ad3dc>] kthread+0x12c/0x160
  [<ffffffff81969019>] ret_from_fork+0x29/0x40
  [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

The events leading to the lockup are...

1. A lot of cgwb_release_workfn() is queued at the same time and all
   system_wq kworkers are assigned to execute them.

2. They all end up calling synchronize_rcu_expedited().  One of them
   wins and tries to perform the expedited synchronization.

3. However, that invovles queueing rcu_exp_work to system_wq and
   waiting for it.  Because #1 is holding all available kworkers on
   system_wq, rcu_exp_work can't be executed.  cgwb_release_workfn()
   is waiting for synchronize_rcu_expedited() which in turn is waiting
   for cgwb_release_workfn() to free up some of the kworkers.

We shouldn't be scheduling hundreds of cgwb_release_workfn() at the
same time.  There's nothing to be gained from that.  This patch
updates cgwb release path to use a dedicated percpu workqueue with
@max_active of 1.

While this resolves the problem at hand, it might be a good idea to
isolate rcu_exp_work to its own workqueue too as it can be used from
various paths and is prone to this sort of indirect A-A deadlocks.

f53823c181 bdi: Fix use after free bug in debugfs_remove()
syzbot is reporting use after free bug in debugfs_remove() [1].

This is because fault injection made memory allocation for
debugfs_create_file() from bdi_debug_register() from bdi_register_va()
fail and continued with setting WB_registered. But when debugfs_remove()
is called from debugfs_remove(bdi->debug_dir) from bdi_debug_unregister()
 from bdi_unregister() from release_bdi() because WB_registered was set
by bdi_register_va(), IS_ERR_OR_NULL(bdi->debug_dir) == false despite
debugfs_remove(bdi->debug_dir) was already called from bdi_register_va().

Fix this by making IS_ERR_OR_NULL(bdi->debug_dir) == true.

e3c1ac586c mm/vmscan: don't mess with pgdat->flags in memcg reclaim
memcg reclaim may alter pgdat->flags based on the state of LRU lists in
cgroup and its children.  PGDAT_WRITEBACK may force kswapd to sleep
congested_wait(), PGDAT_DIRTY may force kswapd to writeback filesystem
pages.  But the worst here is PGDAT_CONGESTED, since it may force all
direct reclaims to stall in wait_iff_congested().  Note that only kswapd
have powers to clear any of these bits.  This might just never happen if
cgroup limits configured that way.  So all direct reclaims will stall as
long as we have some congested bdi in the system.

Leave all pgdat->flags manipulations to kswapd.  kswapd scans the whole
pgdat, only kswapd can clear pgdat->flags once node is balanced, thus
it's reasonable to leave all decisions about node state to kswapd.

Why only kswapd? Why not allow to global direct reclaim change these
flags? It is because currently only kswapd can clear these flags.  I'm
less worried about the case when PGDAT_CONGESTED falsely not set, and
more worried about the case when it falsely set.  If direct reclaimer
sets PGDAT_CONGESTED, do we have guarantee that after the congestion
problem is sorted out, kswapd will be woken up and clear the flag? It
seems like there is no such guarantee.  E.g.  direct reclaimers may
eventually balance pgdat and kswapd simply won't wake up (see
wakeup_kswapd()).

Moving pgdat->flags manipulation to kswapd, means that cgroup2 recalim
now loses its congestion throttling mechanism.  Add per-cgroup
congestion state and throttle cgroup2 reclaimers if memcg is in
congestion state.

Currently there is no need in per-cgroup PGDAT_WRITEBACK and PGDAT_DIRTY
bits since they alter only kswapd behavior.

The problem could be easily demonstrated by creating heavy congestion in
one cgroup:

    echo "+memory" > /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control
    mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/congester
    echo 512M > /sys/fs/cgroup/congester/memory.max
    echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/congester/cgroup.procs
    /* generate a lot of diry data on slow HDD */
    while true; do dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/sdb/zeroes bs=1M count=1024; done &
    ....
    while true; do dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/sdb/zeroes bs=1M count=1024; done &

and some job in another cgroup:

    mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/victim
    echo 128M > /sys/fs/cgroup/victim/memory.max

    # time cat /dev/sda > /dev/null
    real    10m15.054s
    user    0m0.487s
    sys     1m8.505s

According to the tracepoint in wait_iff_congested(), the 'cat' spent 50%
of the time sleeping there.

With the patch, cat don't waste time anymore:

    # time cat /dev/sda > /dev/null
    real    5m32.911s
    user    0m0.411s
    sys     0m56.664s

So move list addition of root bdi_writeback to bdi_register() and list
removal of all wb_writeback structures to wb_shutdown(). That way a
wb_writeback structure is on bdi->wb_list if and only if it can handle
writeback and it will make it easier for us to handle shutdown of all
wb_writeback structures in bdi_unregister().
