      ocfs2: fix ip_unaligned_aio deadlock with dio work queue · e63890f3
      Ryan Ding authored
      In the current implementation of unaligned aio+dio, lock order behave as
      follow:
      
      in user process context:
        -> call io_submit()
          -> get i_mutex
      		<== window1
            -> get ip_unaligned_aio
              -> submit direct io to block device
          -> release i_mutex
        -> io_submit() return
      
      in dio work queue context(the work queue is created in __blockdev_direct_IO):
        -> release ip_unaligned_aio
      		<== window2
          -> get i_mutex
            -> clear unwritten flag & change i_size
          -> release i_mutex
      
      There is a limitation to the thread number of dio work queue.  256 at
      default.  If all 256 thread are in the above 'window2' stage, and there
      is a user process in the 'window1' stage, the system will became
      deadlock.  Since the user process hold i_mutex to wait ip_unaligned_aio
      lock, while there is a direct bio hold ip_unaligned_aio mutex who is
      waiting for a dio work queue thread to be schedule.  But all the dio
      work queue thread is waiting for i_mutex lock in 'window2'.
      
      This case only happened in a test which send a large number(more than
      256) of aio at one io_submit() call.
      
      My design is to remove ip_unaligned_aio lock.  Change it to a sync io
      instead.  Just like ip_unaligned_aio lock, serialize the unaligned aio
      dio.

      ocfs2: code clean up for direct io · f1f973ff
      Ryan Ding authored
      Clean up ocfs2_file_write_iter & ocfs2_prepare_inode_for_write:
       * remove append dio check: it will be checked in ocfs2_direct_IO()
       * remove file hole check: file hole is supported for now
       * remove inline data check: it will be checked in ocfs2_direct_IO()
       * remove the full_coherence check when append dio: we will get the
         inode_lock in ocfs2_dio_get_block, there is no need to fall back to
         buffer io to ensure the coherence semantics.
      
      Now the drop dio procedure is gone.  :)

      ocfs2: fix sparse file & data ordering issue in direct io · c15471f7
      Ryan Ding authored
      There are mainly three issues in the direct io code path after commit
      24c40b32 ("ocfs2: implement ocfs2_direct_IO_write"):
      
        * Does not support sparse file.
        * Does not support data ordering.  eg: when write to a file hole, it
          will alloc extent first.  If system crashed before io finished, data
          will corrupt.
        * Potential risk when doing aio+dio.  The -EIOCBQUEUED return value is
          likely to be ignored by ocfs2_direct_IO_write().
      
      To resolve above problems, re-design direct io code with following ideas:
        * Use buffer io to fill in holes.  And this will make better
          performance also.
        * Clear unwritten after direct write finished.  So we can make sure
          meta data changes after data write to disk.  (Unwritten extent is
          invisible to user, from user's view, meta data is not changed when
          allocate an unwritten extent.)
        * Clear ocfs2_direct_IO_write().  Do all ending work in end_io.
      
      This patch has passed fs,dio,ltp-aiodio.part1,ltp-aiodio.part2,ltp-aiodio.part4
      test cases of ltp.

      ocfs2: record UNWRITTEN extents when populate write desc · 4506cfb6
      Ryan Ding authored
      To support direct io in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock & ocfs2_write_end_nolock.
      
      There is still one issue in the direct write procedure.
      
      phase 1: alloc extent with UNWRITTEN flag
      phase 2: submit direct data to disk, add zero page to page cache
      phase 3: clear UNWRITTEN flag when data has been written to disk
      
      When there are 2 direct write A(0~3KB),B(4~7KB) writing to the same
      cluster 0~7KB (cluster size 8KB).  Write request A arrive phase 2 first,
      it will zero the region (4~7KB).  Before request A enter to phase 3,
      request B arrive phase 2, it will zero region (0~3KB).  This is just like
      request B steps request A.
      
      To resolve this issue, we should let request B knows this cluster is already
      under zero, to prevent it from steps the previous write request.
      
      This patch will add function ocfs2_unwritten_check() to do this job.  It
      will record all clusters that are under direct write(it will be recorded
      in the 'ip_unwritten_list' member of inode info), and prevent the later
      direct write writing to the same cluster to do the zero work again.

      ocfs2: return the physical address in ocfs2_write_cluster · 2de6a3c7
      Ryan Ding authored
      To support direct io in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock & ocfs2_write_end_nolock.
      
      Direct io needs to get the physical address from write_begin, to map the
      user page.  This patch is to change the arg 'phys' of
      ocfs2_write_cluster to a pointer, so it can be retrieved to write_begin.
      And we can retrieve it to the direct io procedure.

      ocfs2: do not change i_size in write_end for direct io · 46e62556
      Ryan Ding authored
      To support direct io in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock & ocfs2_write_end_nolock.
      
      Append direct io do not change i_size in get block phase.  It only move
      to orphan when starting write.  After data is written to disk, it will
      delete itself from orphan and update i_size.  So skip i_size change
      section in write_begin for direct io.
      
      And when there is no extents alloc, no meta data changes needed for
      direct io (since write_begin start trans for 2 reason: alloc extents &
      change i_size.  Now none of them needed).  So we can skip start trans
      procedure.

      ocfs2: test target page before change it · 65c4db8c
      Ryan Ding authored
      To support direct io in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock & ocfs2_write_end_nolock.
      
      Direct io data will not appear in buffer.  The w_target_page member will
      not be filled by direct io.  So avoid to use it when it's NULL.  Unlinke
      buffer io and mmap, direct io will call write_begin with more than 1
      page a time.  So the target_index is not sufficient to describe the
      actual data.  change it to a range start at target_index, end in
      end_index.

      ocfs2: use c_new to indicate newly allocated extents · b46637d5
      Ryan Ding authored
      To support direct io in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock & ocfs2_write_end_nolock.
      
      There is a problem in ocfs2's direct io implement: if system crashed
      after extents allocated, and before data return, we will get a extent
      with dirty data on disk.  This problem violate the journal=order
      semantics, which means meta changes take effect after data written to
      disk.  To resolve this issue, direct write can use the UNWRITTEN flag to
      describe a extent during direct data writeback.  The direct write
      procedure should act in the following order:
      
      phase 1: alloc extent with UNWRITTEN flag
      phase 2: submit direct data to disk, add zero page to page cache
      phase 3: clear UNWRITTEN flag when data has been written to disk
      
      This patch is to change the 'c_unwritten' member of
      ocfs2_write_cluster_desc to 'c_clear_unwritten'.  Means whether to clear
      the unwritten flag.  It do not care if a extent is allocated or not.
      And use 'c_new' to specify a newly allocated extent.  So the direct io
      procedure can use c_clear_unwritten to control the UNWRITTEN bit on
      extent.

      ocfs2: add ocfs2_write_type_t type to identify the caller of write · c1ad1e3c
      Ryan Ding authored
      Patchset: fix ocfs2 direct io code patch to support sparse file and data
      ordering semantics
      
      The idea is to use buffer io(more precisely use the interface
      ocfs2_write_begin_nolock & ocfs2_write_end_nolock) to do the zero work
      beyond block size.  And clear UNWRITTEN flag until direct io data has
      been written to disk, which can prevent data corruption when system
      crashed during direct write.
      
      And we will also archive a better performance: eg.  dd direct write new
      file with block size 4KB: before this patchset:
        2.5 MB/s
      after this patchset:
        66.4 MB/s
      
      This patch (of 8):
      
      To support direct io in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock &
      ocfs2_write_end_nolock.
      
      Remove unused args filp & flags.  Add new arg type.  The type is one of
      buffer/direct/mmap.  Indicate 3 way to perform write.  buffer/mmap type
      has implemented.  direct type will be implemented later.

      oom: make oom_reaper freezable · e2679606
      Michal Hocko authored
      After "oom: clear TIF_MEMDIE after oom_reaper managed to unmap the
      address space" oom_reaper will call exit_oom_victim on the target task
      after it is done.  This might however race with the PM freezer:
      
      CPU0				CPU1				CPU2
      freeze_processes
        try_to_freeze_tasks
        				# Allocation request
      				out_of_memory
        oom_killer_disable
      				  wake_oom_reaper(P1)
      				  				__oom_reap_task
      								  exit_oom_victim(P1)
          wait_event(oom_victims==0)
      [...]
          				do_exit(P1)
      				  perform IO/interfere with the freezer
      
      which breaks the oom_killer_disable semantic.  We no longer have a
      guarantee that the oom victim won't interfere with the freezer because
      it might be anywhere on the way to do_exit while the freezer thinks the
      task has already terminated.  It might trigger IO or touch devices which
      are frozen already.
      
      In order to close this race, make the oom_reaper thread freezable.  This
      will work because
      	a) already running oom_reaper will block freezer to enter the
      	   quiescent state
      	b) wake_oom_reaper will not wake up the reaper after it has been
      	   frozen
      	c) the only way to call exit_oom_victim after try_to_freeze_tasks
      	   is from the oom victim's context when we know the further
      	   interference shouldn't be possible

      oom, oom_reaper: disable oom_reaper for oom_kill_allocating_task · 855b0183
      Michal Hocko authored
      Tetsuo has reported that oom_kill_allocating_task=1 will cause
      oom_reaper_list corruption because oom_kill_process doesn't follow
      standard OOM exclusion (aka ignores TIF_MEMDIE) and allows to enqueue
      the same task multiple times - e.g.  by sacrificing the same child
      multiple times.
      
      This patch fixes the issue by introducing a new MMF_OOM_KILLED mm flag
      which is set in oom_kill_process atomically and oom reaper is disabled
      if the flag was already set.

      mm, oom_reaper: implement OOM victims queuing · 03049269
      Michal Hocko authored
      wake_oom_reaper has allowed only 1 oom victim to be queued.  The main
      reason for that was the simplicity as other solutions would require some
      way of queuing.  The current approach is racy and that was deemed
      sufficient as the oom_reaper is considered a best effort approach to
      help with oom handling when the OOM victim cannot terminate in a
      reasonable time.  The race could lead to missing an oom victim which can
      get stuck
      
      out_of_memory
        wake_oom_reaper
          cmpxchg // OK
          			oom_reaper
      			  oom_reap_task
      			    __oom_reap_task
      oom_victim terminates
      			      atomic_inc_not_zero // fail
      out_of_memory
        wake_oom_reaper
          cmpxchg // fails
      			  task_to_reap = NULL
      
      This race requires 2 OOM invocations in a short time period which is not
      very likely but certainly not impossible.  E.g.  the original victim
      might have not released a lot of memory for some reason.
      
      The situation would improve considerably if wake_oom_reaper used a more
      robust queuing.  This is what this patch implements.  This means adding
      oom_reaper_list list_head into task_struct (eat a hole before embeded
      thread_struct for that purpose) and a oom_reaper_lock spinlock for
      queuing synchronization.  wake_oom_reaper will then add the task on the
      queue and oom_reaper will dequeue it.

      oom: clear TIF_MEMDIE after oom_reaper managed to unmap the address space · 36324a99
      Michal Hocko authored
      When oom_reaper manages to unmap all the eligible vmas there shouldn't
      be much of the freable memory held by the oom victim left anymore so it
      makes sense to clear the TIF_MEMDIE flag for the victim and allow the
      OOM killer to select another task.
      
      The lack of TIF_MEMDIE also means that the victim cannot access memory
      reserves anymore but that shouldn't be a problem because it would get
      the access again if it needs to allocate and hits the OOM killer again
      due to the fatal_signal_pending resp.  PF_EXITING check.  We can safely
      hide the task from the OOM killer because it is clearly not a good
      candidate anymore as everyhing reclaimable has been torn down already.
      
      This patch will allow to cap the time an OOM victim can keep TIF_MEMDIE
      and thus hold off further global OOM killer actions granted the oom
      reaper is able to take mmap_sem for the associated mm struct.  This is
      not guaranteed now but further steps should make sure that mmap_sem for
      write should be blocked killable which will help to reduce such a lock
      contention.  This is not done by this patch.
      
      Note that exit_oom_victim might be called on a remote task from
      __oom_reap_task now so we have to check and clear the flag atomically
      otherwise we might race and underflow oom_victims or wake up waiters too
      early.

      mm, oom: introduce oom reaper · aac45363
      Michal Hocko authored
      This patch (of 5):
      
      This is based on the idea from Mel Gorman discussed during LSFMM 2015
      and independently brought up by Oleg Nesterov.
      
      The OOM killer currently allows to kill only a single task in a good
      hope that the task will terminate in a reasonable time and frees up its
      memory.  Such a task (oom victim) will get an access to memory reserves
      via mark_oom_victim to allow a forward progress should there be a need
      for additional memory during exit path.
      
      It has been shown (e.g.  by Tetsuo Handa) that it is not that hard to
      construct workloads which break the core assumption mentioned above and
      the OOM victim might take unbounded amount of time to exit because it
      might be blocked in the uninterruptible state waiting for an event (e.g.
      lock) which is blocked by another task looping in the page allocator.
      
      This patch reduces the probability of such a lockup by introducing a
      specialized kernel thread (oom_reaper) which tries to reclaim additional
      memory by preemptively reaping the anonymous or swapped out memory owned
      by the oom victim under an assumption that such a memory won't be needed
      when its owner is killed and kicked from the userspace anyway.  There is
      one notable exception to this, though, if the OOM victim was in the
      process of coredumping the result would be incomplete.  This is
      considered a reasonable constrain because the overall system health is
      more important than debugability of a particular application.
      
      A kernel thread has been chosen because we need a reliable way of
      invocation so workqueue context is not appropriate because all the
      workers might be busy (e.g.  allocating memory).  Kswapd which sounds
      like another good fit is not appropriate as well because it might get
      blocked on locks during reclaim as well.
      
      oom_reaper has to take mmap_sem on the target task for reading so the
      solution is not 100% because the semaphore might be held or blocked for
      write but the probability is reduced considerably wrt.  basically any
      lock blocking forward progress as described above.  In order to prevent
      from blocking on the lock without any forward progress we are using only
      a trylock and retry 10 times with a short sleep in between.  Users of
      mmap_sem which need it for write should be carefully reviewed to use
      _killable waiting as much as possible and reduce allocations requests
      done with the lock held to absolute minimum to reduce the risk even
      further.
      
      The API between oom killer and oom reaper is quite trivial.
      wake_oom_reaper updates mm_to_reap with cmpxchg to guarantee only
      NULL->mm transition and oom_reaper clear this atomically once it is done
      with the work.  This means that only a single mm_struct can be reaped at
      the time.  As the operation is potentially disruptive we are trying to
      limit it to the ncessary minimum and the reaper blocks any updates while
      it operates on an mm.  mm_struct is pinned by mm_count to allow parallel
      exit_mmap and a race is detected by atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_users).

           (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).
      
         - cpuidle menu governor updates to make it always honor PM QoS
           latency constraints (and prevent C1 from being used as the fallback
           C-state on x86 when they are set below its exit latency) and to
           restore the previous behavior to fall back to C1 if the next timer
           event is set far enough in the future that was changed in 4.4 which
           led to an energy consumption regression (Rik van Riel, Rafael
           Wysocki).

           for AMD SoCs (Wang Hongcheng).

           scaling (AVS) driver (David Wu).
      
         - ACPI PCI resources management fix for the handling of IO space
           resources on architectures where the IO space is memory mapped
           (IA64 and ARM64) broken by the introduction of common ACPI
           resources parsing for PCI host bridges in 4.4 (Lorenzo Pieralisi).
      
         - Fix for the ACPI backend of the generic device properties API to
           make it parse non-device (data node only) children of an ACPI
           device correctly (Irina Tirdea).
      
         - Fixes for the handling of global suspend flags (introduced in 4.4)
           during hibernation and resume from it (Lukas Wunner).
      
         - Support for obtaining configuration information from Device Trees
