include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

FS-Cache: Start processing an object's operations on that object's death
Start processing an object's operations when that object moves into the DYING state as the object cannot be destroyed until all its outstanding operations have completed. Furthermore, make sure that read and allocation operations handle being woken up on a dead object. Such events are recorded in the Allocs.abt and Retrvls.abt statistics as viewable through /proc/fs/fscache/stats. The code for waiting for object activation for the read and allocation operations is also extracted into its own function as it is much the same in all cases, differing only in the stats incremented.

FS-Cache: Handle pages pending storage that get evicted under OOM conditions
Handle netfs pages that the vmscan algorithm wants to evict from the pagecache
under OOM conditions, but that are waiting for write to the cache. Under these
conditions, vmscan calls the releasepage() function of the netfs, asking if a
page can be discarded.
The problem is typified by the following trace of a stuck process:

In the above backtrace, the following is happening:
(1) A page storage operation is being executed by a slow-work thread
(fscache_write_op()).
(2) FS-Cache farms the operation out to the cache to perform
(cachefiles_write_page()).
(3) CacheFiles is then calling Ext3 to perform the actual write, using Ext3's
standard write (do_sync_write()) under KERNEL_DS directly from the netfs
page.
(4) However, for Ext3 to perform the write, it must allocate some memory, in
particular, it must allocate at least one page cache page into which it
can copy the data from the netfs page.
(5) Under OOM conditions, the memory allocator can't immediately come up with
a page, so it uses vmscan to find something to discard
(try_to_free_pages()).
(6) vmscan finds a clean netfs page it might be able to discard (possibly the
one it's trying to write out).
(7) The netfs is called to throw the page away (nfs_release_page()) - but it's
called with __GFP_WAIT, so the netfs decides to wait for the store to
complete (__fscache_wait_on_page_write()).
(8) This blocks a slow-work processing thread - possibly against itself.
The system ends up stuck because it can't write out any netfs pages to the
cache without allocating more memory.
To avoid this, we make FS-Cache cancel some writes that aren't in the middle of
actually being performed. This means that some data won't make it into the
cache this time. To support this, a new FS-Cache function is added
fscache_maybe_release_page() that replaces what the netfs releasepage()
functions used to do with respect to the cache.
The decisions fscache_maybe_release_page() makes are counted and displayed
through /proc/fs/fscache/stats on a line labelled "VmScan". There are four
counters provided: "nos=N" - pages that weren't pending storage; "gon=N" -
pages that were pending storage when we first looked, but weren't by the time
we got the object lock; "bsy=N" - pages that we ignored as they were actively
being written when we looked; and "can=N" - pages that we cancelled the storage
of.
What I'd really like to do is alter the behaviour of the cancellation
heuristics, depending on how necessary it is to expel pages. If there are
plenty of other pages that aren't waiting to be written to the cache that
could be ejected first, then it would be nice to hold up on immediate
cancellation of cache writes - but I don't see a way of doing that.

FS-Cache: Fix lock misorder in fscache_write_op()
FS-Cache has two structs internally for keeping track of the internal state of
a cached file: the fscache_cookie struct, which represents the netfs's state,
and fscache_object struct, which represents the cache's state. Each has a
pointer that points to the other (when both are in existence), and each has a
spinlock for pointer maintenance.
Since netfs operations approach these structures from the cookie side, they get
the cookie lock first, then the object lock. Cache operations, on the other
hand, approach from the object side, and get the object lock first. It is not
then permitted for a cache operation to get the cookie lock whilst it is
holding the object lock lest deadlock occur; instead, it must do one of two
things:
(1) increment the cookie usage counter, drop the object lock and then get both
locks in order, or
(2) simply hold the object lock as certain parts of the cookie may not be
altered whilst the object lock is held.
It is also not permitted to follow either pointer without holding the lock at
the end you start with. To break the pointers between the cookie and the
object, both locks must be held.
fscache_write_op(), however, violates the locking rules: It attempts to get the
cookie lock without (a) checking that the cookie pointer is a valid pointer,
and (b) holding the object lock to protect the cookie pointer whilst it follows
it. This is so that it can access the pending page store tree without
interference from __fscache_write_page().
This is fixed by splitting the cookie lock, such that the page store tracking
tree is protected by its own lock, and checking that the cookie pointer is
non-NULL before we attempt to follow it whilst holding the object lock.
The new lock is subordinate to both the cookie lock and the object lock, and so
should be taken after those.

FS-Cache: Permit cache retrieval ops to be interrupted in the initial wait phase
Permit the operations to retrieve data from the cache or to allocate space in the cache for future writes to be interrupted whilst they're waiting for permission for the operation to proceed. Typically this wait occurs whilst the cache object is being looked up on disk in the background. If an interruption occurs, and the operation has not yet been given the go-ahead to run, the operation is dequeued and cancelled, and control returns to the read operation of the netfs routine with none of the requested pages having been read or in any way marked as known by the cache. This means that the initial wait is done interruptibly rather than uninterruptibly. In addition, extra stats values are made available to show the number of ops cancelled and the number of cache space allocations interrupted. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> |

FS-Cache: Allow the current state of all objects to be dumped
Allow the current state of all fscache objects to be dumped by doing: cat /proc/fs/fscache/objects By default, all objects and all fields will be shown. This can be restricted by adding a suitable key to one of the caller's keyrings (such as the session keyring): keyctl add user fscache:objlist "<restrictions>" @s The <restrictions> are: K Show hexdump of object key (don't show if not given) A Show hexdump of object aux data (don't show if not given) And paired restrictions: C Show objects that have a cookie c Show objects that don't have a cookie B Show objects that are busy b Show objects that aren't busy W Show objects that have pending writes w Show objects that don't have pending writes R Show objects that have outstanding reads r Show objects that don't have outstanding reads S Show objects that have slow work queued s Show objects that don't have slow work queued If neither side of a restriction pair is given, then both are implied. For example: keyctl add user fscache:objlist KB @s shows objects that are busy, and lists their object keys, but does not dump their auxiliary data. It also implies "CcWwRrSs", but as 'B' is given, 'b' is not implied. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> |

FS-Cache: Implement data I/O part of netfs API
Implement the data I/O part of the FS-Cache netfs API. The documentation and
API header file were added in a previous patch.
This patch implements the following functions for the netfs to call:
(*) fscache_attr_changed().
Indicate that the object has changed its attributes. The only attribute
currently recorded is the file size. Only pages within the set file size
will be stored in the cache.
This operation is submitted for asynchronous processing, and will return
immediately. It will return -ENOMEM if an out of memory error is
encountered, -ENOBUFS if the object is not actually cached, or 0 if the
operation is successfully queued.
(*) fscache_read_or_alloc_page().
(*) fscache_read_or_alloc_pages().
Request data be fetched from the disk, and allocate internal metadata to
track the netfs pages and reserve disk space for unknown pages.
These operations perform semi-asynchronous data reads. Upon returning
they will indicate which pages they think can be retrieved from disk, and
will have set in progress attempts to retrieve those pages.
These will return, in order of preference, -ENOMEM on memory allocation
error, -ERESTARTSYS if a signal interrupted proceedings, -ENODATA if one
or more requested pages are not yet cached, -ENOBUFS if the object is not
actually cached or if there isn't space for future pages to be cached on
this object, or 0 if successful.
In the case of the multipage function, the pages for which reads are set
in progress will be removed from the list and the page count decreased
appropriately.
If any read operations should fail, the completion function will be given
an error, and will also be passed contextual information to allow the
netfs to fall back to querying the server for the absent pages.
For each successful read, the page completion function will also be
called.
Any pages subsequently tracked by the cache will have PG_fscache set upon
them on return. fscache_uncache_page() must be called for such pages.
If supplied by the netfs, the mark_pages_cached() cookie op will be
invoked for any pages now tracked.
(*) fscache_alloc_page().
Allocate internal metadata to track a netfs page and reserve disk space.
This will return -ENOMEM on memory allocation error, -ERESTARTSYS on
signal, -ENOBUFS if the object isn't cached, or there isn't enough space
in the cache, or 0 if successful.
Any pages subsequently tracked by the cache will have PG_fscache set upon
them on return. fscache_uncache_page() must be called for such pages.
If supplied by the netfs, the mark_pages_cached() cookie op will be
invoked for any pages now tracked.
(*) fscache_write_page().
Request data be stored to disk. This may only be called on pages that
have been read or alloc'd by the above three functions and have not yet
been uncached.
This will return -ENOMEM on memory allocation error, -ERESTARTSYS on
signal, -ENOBUFS if the object isn't cached, or there isn't immediately
enough space in the cache, or 0 if successful.
On a successful return, this operation will have queued the page for
asynchronous writing to the cache. The page will be returned with
PG_fscache_write set until the write completes one way or another. The
caller will not be notified if the write fails due to an I/O error. If
that happens, the object will become available and all pending writes will
be aborted.
Note that the cache may batch up page writes, and so it may take a while
to get around to writing them out.
The caller must assume that until PG_fscache_write is cleared the page is
use by the cache. Any changes made to the page may be reflected on disk.
The page may even be under DMA.
(*) fscache_uncache_page().
Indicate that the cache should stop tracking a page previously read or
alloc'd from the cache. If the page was alloc'd only, but unwritten, it
will not appear on disk.
