In the buffer write path, iomap_set_range_uptodate() is called every
time iomap_end_write() is called. But if folio_test_uptodate() holds, we
know that all blocks in this folio are already in the uptodate state, so
there is no need to go deep into the critical section of state_lock to
execute bitmap_set().
This is because the folios always creep towards ifs_is_fully_uptodate()
state and once they've gotten there folio_mark_uptodate() is called, which
means the folio is uptodate.
Then once a folio is uptodate, there is no route back to !uptodate without
going through the removal of the folio from the page cache. Therefore, it's
fine to use folio_test_uptodate() to short-circuit unnecessary code paths.
Although state_lock may not have significant lock contention due to
folio lock, this patch at least reduces the number of instructions,
especially the expensive lock-prefixed instructions.

DONTCACHE I/O must have the completion punted to a workqueue, just like
what is done for unwritten extents, as the completion needs task context
to perform the invalidation of the folio(s). However, if writeback is
started off filemap_fdatawrite_range() off generic_sync() and it's an
overwrite, then the DONTCACHE marking gets lost as iomap_add_to_ioend()
don't look at the folio being added and no further state is passed down
to help it know that this is a dropbehind/DONTCACHE write.
Check if the folio being added is marked as dropbehind, and set
IOMAP_IOEND_DONTCACHE if that is the case. Then XFS can factor this into
the decision making of completion context in xfs_submit_ioend().
Additionally include this ioend flag in the NOMERGE flags, to avoid
mixing it with unrelated IO.
Since this is the 3rd flag that will cause XFS to punt the completion to
a workqueue, add a helper so that each one of them can get appropriately
commented.
This fixes extra page cache being instantiated when the write performed
is an overwrite, rather than newly instantiated blocks.

iomap_write_begin() returns a folio based on current pos and

In iomap_adjust_read_range, i is either the first !uptodate block, or it
is past last for the second loop looking for trailing uptodate blocks.
Assuming there's no overflow (there's no combination of huge folios and
tiny blksize) then yeah, there is no point in retesting that the same
block pointed to by i is uptodate since we hold the folio lock so nobody
else could have set it uptodate.

Previously, iomap_readpage_iter() returning 0 would break out of the
loops of iomap_readahead_iter(), which is what iomap_read_inline_data()
relies on.
However, commit d9dc477ff6a2 ("iomap: advance the iter directly on
buffered read") changes this behavior without calling
iomap_iter_advance(), which causes EROFS to get stuck in
iomap_readpage_iter().
It seems iomap_iter_advance() cannot be called in
iomap_read_inline_data() because of the iomap_write_begin() path, so
handle this in iomap_readpage_iter() instead.

The iter.processed field name is no longer appropriate now that

the field to iter.status to reflect that a success or error code is
expected.
Also change the type to int as there is no longer a need for an s64.
This reduces the size of iomap_iter by 8 bytes due to a combination

Modify the buffered write path to advance the iter directly. Replace
the local pos and length calculations with direct advances and loop
based on iter state instead.
Also remove the -EAGAIN return hack as it is no longer necessary now
that separate return channels exist for processing progress and error
returns. For example, the existing write handler must return either a
count of bytes written or error if the write is interrupted, but
presumably wants to return -EAGAIN directly in order to break the higher
level iomap_iter() loop.
Since the current iteration may have made some progress, it unwinds the
iter on the way out to return the error while ensuring that portion of
the write can be retried. If -EAGAIN occurs at any point beyond the
first iteration, iomap_file_buffered_write() will then observe progress
based on iter->pos to return a short write.
With incremental advances on the iomap_iter, iomap_write_iter() can
simply return the error. iomap_iter() completes whatever progress was
made based on iomap_iter position and still breaks out of the iter loop
based on the error code in iter.processed. The end result of the write
is similar in terms of being a short write if progress was made or error
return otherwise.

Add a IOMAP_F_ANON_WRITE flag that indicates that the write I/O does not
have a target block assigned to it yet at iomap time and the file system
will do that in the bio submission handler, splitting the I/O as needed.
This is used to implement Zone Append based I/O for zoned XFS, where
splitting writes to the hardware limits and assigning a zone to them
happens just before sending the I/O off to the block layer, but could
also be useful for other things like compressed I/O.

During concurrent append writes to XFS filesystem, zero padding data
may appear in the file after power failure. This happens due to imprecise
disk size updates when handling write completion.
Consider this scenario with concurrent append writes same file:
Thread 1: Thread 2:
------------ -----------
write [A, A+B]
update inode size to A+B
submit I/O [A, A+BS]
write [A+B, A+B+C]
update inode size to A+B+C
<I/O completes, updates disk size to min(A+B+C, A+BS)>
<power failure>
After reboot:
1) with A+B+C < A+BS, the file has zero padding in range [A+B, A+B+C]
|< Block Size (BS) >|
|DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD0000000000000000|
^ ^ ^
A A+B A+B+C
(EOF)
2) with A+B+C > A+BS, the file has zero padding in range [A+B, A+BS]
|< Block Size (BS) >|< Block Size (BS) >|
|DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD0000000000000000|00000000000000000000000000000000|
^ ^ ^ ^
A A+B A+BS A+B+C
(EOF)
D = Valid Data
0 = Zero Padding
The issue stems from disk size being set to min(io_offset + io_size,
inode->i_size) at I/O completion. Since io_offset+io_size is block
size granularity, it may exceed the actual valid file data size. In
the case of concurrent append writes, inode->i_size may be larger
than the actual range of valid file data written to disk, leading to
inaccurate disk size updates.
This patch modifies the meaning of io_size to represent the size of
valid data within EOF in an ioend. If the ioend spans beyond i_size,
io_size will be trimmed to provide the file with more accurate size
information. This is particularly useful for on-disk size updates
at completion time.
After this change, ioends that span i_size will not grow or merge with
other ioends in concurrent scenarios. However, these cases that need
growth/merging rarely occur and it seems no noticeable performance impact.
Although rounding up io_size could enable ioend growth/merging in these
scenarios, we decided to keep the code simple after discussion [1].
Another benefit is that it makes the xfs_ioend_is_append() check more
accurate, which can reduce unnecessary end bio callbacks of xfs_end_bio()
in certain scenarios, such as repeated writes at the file tail without
extending the file size.

This is a preparatory patch for fixing zero padding issues in concurrent
append write scenarios. In the following patches, we need to obtain
byte-granular writeback end position for io_size trimming after EOF
handling.
Due to concurrent writeback and truncate operations, inode size may
shrink. Resampling inode size would force writeback code to handle the
newly appeared post-EOF blocks, which is undesirable. As Dave
explained in [1]:
"Really, the issue is that writeback mappings have to be able to
handle the range being mapped suddenly appear to be beyond EOF.
This behaviour is a longstanding writeback constraint, and is what
iomap_writepage_handle_eof() is attempting to handle.
We handle this by only sampling i_size_read() whilst we have the
folio locked and can determine the action we should take with that
folio (i.e. nothing, partial zeroing, or skip altogether). Once
we've made the decision that the folio is within EOF and taken
action on it (i.e. moved the folio to writeback state), we cannot
then resample the inode size because a truncate may have started
and changed the inode size."
To avoid resampling inode size after EOF handling, we convert end_pos
to byte-granular writeback position and return it from EOF handling
function.
Since iomap_set_range_dirty() can handle unaligned lengths, this
conversion has no impact on it. However, iomap_find_dirty_range()
requires aligned start and end range to find dirty blocks within the
given range, so the end position needs to be rounded up when passed
to it.

iomap zero range flushes pagecache in certain situations to
determine which parts of the range might require zeroing if dirty
data is present in pagecache. The kernel robot recently reported a
regression associated with this flushing in the following stress-ng
workload on XFS:
stress-ng --timeout 60 --times --verify --metrics --no-rand-seed --metamix 64
This workload involves repeated small, strided, extending writes. On
XFS, this produces a pattern of post-eof speculative preallocation,
conversion of preallocation from delalloc to unwritten, dirtying
pagecache over newly unwritten blocks, and then rinse and repeat
from the new EOF. This leads to repetitive flushing of the EOF folio
via the zero range call XFS uses for writes that start beyond
current EOF.
To mitigate this problem, special case EOF block zeroing to prefer
zeroing the folio over a flush when the EOF folio is already dirty.
To do this, split out and open code handling of an unaligned start
offset. This brings most of the performance back by avoiding flushes
on zero range calls via write and truncate extension operations. The
flush doesn't occur in these situations because the entire range is
post-eof and therefore the folio that overlaps EOF is the only one
in the range.

iomap_zero_range() uses buffered writes for manual zeroing, no
longer updates i_size for such writes, but is still explicitly
called for post-eof ranges. The historical use case for this is
zeroing post-eof speculative preallocation on extending writes from
XFS. However, XFS also recently changed to convert all post-eof
delalloc mappings to unwritten in the iomap_begin() handler, which
means it now never expects manual zeroing of post-eof mappings. In
other words, all post-eof mappings should be reported as holes or
unwritten.
This is a subtle dependency that can be hard to detect if violated
because associated codepaths are likely to update i_size after folio
locks are dropped, but before writeback happens to occur. For
example, if XFS reverts back to some form of manual zeroing of
post-eof blocks on write extension, writeback of those zeroed folios
will now race with the presumed i_size update from the subsequent
buffered write.
Since iomap_zero_range() can't correctly zero post-eof mappings
beyond EOF without updating i_size, warn if this ever occurs. This
serves as minimal indication that if this use case is reintroduced
by a filesystem, iomap_zero_range() might need to reconsider i_size
updates for write extending use cases.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Fixup and improve NLM and kNFSD file lock callbacks
Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their
locking more robust when exported over NFS. Unfortunately, part of
that work caused both NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for
NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send lock notifications to clients
This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will
still poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock
It's important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their
kernel threads inside filesystem's file_lock implementations
because that can produce deadlocks. We used to make sure of this by
only trusting that posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking
lock calls asynchronously, so the lock managers would only setup
their file_lock requests for async callbacks if the filesystem did
not define its own lock() file operation
However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started
signalling this behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check
for also trusting posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so
now most filesystems no longer produce lock notifications when
exported over NFS
Fix this by using an fop_flag which greatly simplifies the problem
and grooms the way for future uses by both filesystems and lock
managers alike
- Add a sysctl to delete the dentry when a file is removed instead of
making it a negative dentry
Commit 681ce8623567 ("vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
deleting a file") introduced an unconditional deletion of the
associated dentry when a file is removed. However, this led to
performance regressions in specific benchmarks, such as
ilebench.sum_operations/s, prompting a revert in commit
4a4be1ad3a6e ("Revert "vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
deleting a file""). This reintroduces the concept conditionally
through a sysctl
- Expand the statmount() system call:
* Report the filesystem subtype in a new fs_subtype field to
e.g., report fuse filesystem subtypes
* Report the superblock source in a new sb_source field
* Add a new way to return filesystem specific mount options in an
option array that returns filesystem specific mount options
separated by zero bytes and unescaped. This allows caller's to
retrieve filesystem specific mount options and immediately pass
them to e.g., fsconfig() without having to unescape or split
them
* Report security (LSM) specific mount options in a separate
security option array. We don't lump them together with
filesystem specific mount options as security mount options are
generic and most users aren't interested in them
The format is the same as for the filesystem specific mount
option array
- Support relative paths in fsconfig()'s FSCONFIG_SET_STRING command
- Optimize acl_permission_check() to avoid costly {g,u}id ownership
checks if possible
- Use smp_mb__after_spinlock() to avoid full smp_mb() in evict()
- Add synchronous wakeup support for ep_poll_callback.
Currently, epoll only uses wake_up() to wake up task. But sometimes
there are epoll users which want to use the synchronous wakeup flag
to give a hint to the scheduler, e.g., the Android binder driver.
So add a wake_up_sync() define, and use wake_up_sync() when sync is
true in ep_poll_callback()

File systems might have boundaries over which merges aren't possible.
In fact these are very common, although most of the time some kind of
header at the beginning of this region (e.g. XFS alloation groups, ext4
block groups) automatically create a merge barrier. But if that is
not present, say for a device purely used for data we need to manually
communicate that to iomap.
Add a IOMAP_F_BOUNDARY flag to never merge I/O into a previous mapping.

Most of the callers of wbc_account_cgroup_owner() are converting a folio

Convert the page to folio for all the callers from f2fs as they were the
only callers calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a page. As f2fs is
already in the process of converting to folios, these call sites might

Pull vfs blocksize updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the vfs infrastructure as well as the xfs bits to enable
support for block sizes (bs) larger than page sizes (ps) plus a few
fixes to related infrastructure.
There has been efforts over the last 16 years to enable enable Large
Block Sizes (LBS), that is block sizes in filesystems where bs > page
size. Through these efforts we have learned that one of the main
blockers to supporting bs > ps in filesystems has been a way to
allocate pages that are at least the filesystem block size on the page
cache where bs > ps.
Thanks to various previous efforts it is possible to support bs > ps
in XFS with only a few changes in XFS itself. Most changes are to the
page cache to support minimum order folio support for the target block
size on the filesystem.
A motivation for Large Block Sizes today is to support high-capacity
(large amount of Terabytes) QLC SSDs where the internal Indirection
Unit (IU) are typically greater than 4k to help reduce DRAM and so in
turn cost and space. In practice this then allows different
architectures to use a base page size of 4k while still enabling
support for block sizes aligned to the larger IUs by relying on high
order folios on the page cache when needed.
It also allows to take advantage of the drive's support for atomics
larger than 4k with buffered IO support in Linux. As described this
year at LSFMM, supporting large atomics greater than 4k enables
databases to remove the need to rely on their own journaling, so they
can disable double buffered writes, which is a feature different cloud
providers are already enabling through custom storage solutions"
