2023-12-24netfs, fscache: Move fs/fscache/* into fs/netfs/David Howells
There's a problem with dependencies between netfslib and fscache as each wants to access some functions of the other. Deal with this by moving fs/fscache/* into fs/netfs/ and renaming those files to begin with "fscache-". For the moment, the moved files are changed as little as possible and an fscache module is still built. A subsequent patch will integrate them.

2022-01-07fscache: Implement cookie-level access helpersDavid Howells
Add a number of helper functions to manage access to a cookie, pinning the cache object in place for the duration to prevent cache withdrawal from removing it: (1) void fscache_init_access_gate(struct fscache_cookie *cookie); This function initialises the access count when a cache binds to a cookie. An extra ref is taken on the access count to prevent wakeups while the cache is active. We're only interested in the wakeup when a cookie is being withdrawn and we're waiting for it to quiesce - at which point the counter will be decremented before the wait. The FSCACHE_COOKIE_NACC_ELEVATED flag is set on the cookie to keep track of the extra ref in order to handle a race between relinquishment and withdrawal both trying to drop the extra ref. (2) bool fscache_begin_cookie_access(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, enum fscache_access_trace why); This function attempts to begin access upon a cookie, pinning it in place if it's cached. If successful, it returns true and leaves a the access count incremented. (3) void fscache_end_cookie_access(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, enum fscache_access_trace why); This function drops the access count obtained by (2), permitting object withdrawal to take place when it reaches zero. A tracepoint is provided to track changes to the access counter on a cookie. Changes ======= ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0.

2022-01-07fscache: Implement volume-level access helpersDavid Howells
Add a pair of helper functions to manage access to a volume, pinning the volume in place for the duration to prevent cache withdrawal from removing it: bool fscache_begin_volume_access(struct fscache_volume *volume, enum fscache_access_trace why); void fscache_end_volume_access(struct fscache_volume *volume, enum fscache_access_trace why); The way the access gate on the volume works/will work is: (1) If the cache tests as not live (state is not FSCACHE_CACHE_IS_ACTIVE), then we return false to indicate access was not permitted. (2) If the cache tests as live, then we increment the volume's n_accesses count and then recheck the cache liveness, ending the access if it ceased to be live. (3) When we end the access, we decrement the volume's n_accesses and wake up the any waiters if it reaches 0. (4) Whilst the cache is caching, the volume's n_accesses is kept artificially incremented to prevent wakeups from happening. (5) When the cache is taken offline, the state is changed to prevent new accesses, the volume's n_accesses is decremented and we wait for it to become 0.

2022-01-07fscache: Implement cookie registrationDavid Howells
Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. It is intended that the filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume. To request a cookie, the filesystem should call: struct fscache_cookie * fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, u8 advice, const void *index_key, size_t index_key_len, const void *aux_data, size_t aux_data_len, loff_t object_size) The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL cookie. A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len. This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in the cache. A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be updateable by various functions in later patches. The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately. This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel, though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy relinquishing its cookie. When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call: void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, bool retire) If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately. Changes ======= ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1]. - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of freeing. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0. - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire tracepoint.

2021-08-27fscache: Fix cookie key hashingDavid Howells
The current hash algorithm used for hashing cookie keys is really bad, producing almost no dispersion (after a test kernel build, ~30000 files were split over just 18 out of the 32768 hash buckets). Borrow the full_name_hash() hash function into fscache to do the hashing for cookie keys and, in the future, volume keys. I don't want to use full_name_hash() as-is because I want the hash value to be consistent across arches and over time as the hash value produced may get used on disk. I can also optimise parts of it away as the key will always be a padded array of aligned 32-bit words.

This also means that the strings are always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit safer. As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers a lot of the changes are mechnical.

2018-10-18fscache: Fix incomplete initialisation of inline key spaceDavid Howells
The inline key in struct rxrpc_cookie is insufficiently initialized, zeroing only 3 of the 4 slots, therefore an index_key_len between 13 and 15 bytes will end up hashing uninitialized memory because the memcpy only partially fills the last buf[] element. Fix this by clearing fscache_cookie objects on allocation rather than using the slab constructor to initialise them. We're going to pretty much fill in the entire struct anyway, so bringing it into our dcache writably shouldn't incur much overhead. This removes the need to do clearance in fscache_set_key() (where we aren't doing it correctly anyway). Also, we don't need to set cookie->key_len in fscache_set_key() as we already did it in the only caller, so remove that.

2014-07-16sched: Remove proliferation of wait_on_bit() action functionsNeilBrown
The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action' function to be provided which does the actual waiting. There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical. Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule(). So: Rename wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock to wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action to make it explicit that they need an action function. Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use a standard one. The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action function. All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their action functions have been discarded. wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and interpolate their own error code as appropriate. The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function. David Howells confirms this should be uniformly "uninterruptible" The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call. A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action' functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan' field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan). As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack. So the distinction will still be visible, only with different function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the gfs2/glock.c case). Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS. CIFS also now uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware schedule call as NFS.

2013-06-19FS-Cache: Simplify cookie retention for fscache_objects, fixing oopsDavid Howells
Simplify the way fscache cache objects retain their cookie. The way I implemented the cookie storage handling made synchronisation a pain (ie. the object state machine can't rely on the cookie actually still being there). Instead of the the object being detached from the cookie and the cookie being freed in __fscache_relinquish_cookie(), we defer both operations: (*) The detachment of the object from the list in the cookie now takes place in fscache_drop_object() and is thus governed by the object state machine (fscache_detach_from_cookie() has been removed). (*) The release of the cookie is now in fscache_object_destroy() - which is called by the cache backend just before it frees the object. This means that the fscache_cookie struct is now available to the cache all the way through from ->alloc_object() to ->drop_object() and ->put_object() - meaning that it's no longer necessary to take object->lock to guarantee access. However, __fscache_relinquish_cookie() doesn't wait for the object to go all the way through to destruction before letting the netfs proceed. That would massively slow down the netfs. Since __fscache_relinquish_cookie() leaves the cookie around, in must therefore break all attachments to the netfs - which includes ->def, ->netfs_data and any outstanding page read/writes. To handle this, struct fscache_cookie now has an n_active counter: (1) This starts off initialised to 1. (2) Any time the cache needs to get at the netfs data, it calls fscache_use_cookie() to increment it - if it is not zero. If it was zero, then access is not permitted. (3) When the cache has finished with the data, it calls fscache_unuse_cookie() to decrement it. This does a wake-up on it if it reaches 0. (4) __fscache_relinquish_cookie() decrements n_active and then waits for it to reach 0. The initialisation to 1 in step (1) ensures that we only get wake ups when we're trying to get rid of the cookie. This leaves __fscache_relinquish_cookie() a lot simpler. *** This fixes a problem in the current code whereby if fscache_invalidate() is followed sufficiently quickly by fscache_relinquish_cookie() then it is possible for __fscache_relinquish_cookie() to have detached the cookie from the object and cleared the pointer before a thread is dispatched to process the invalidation state in the object state machine. Since the pending write clearance was deferred to the invalidation state to make it asynchronous, we need to either wait in relinquishment for the stores tree to be cleared in the invalidation state or we need to handle the clearance in relinquishment. Further, if the relinquishment code does clear the tree, then the invalidation state need to make the clearance contingent on still having the cookie to hand (since that's where the tree is rooted) and we have to prevent the cookie from disappearing for the duration.

2010-07-24fscache: fix build on !CONFIG_SYSCTLTejun Heo
Commit 8b8edefa (fscache: convert object to use workqueue instead of slow-work) made fscache_exit() call unregister_sysctl_table() unconditionally breaking build when sysctl is disabled. Fix it by putting it inside CONFIG_SYSCTL. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

2010-07-22fscache: convert operation to use workqueue instead of slow-workTejun Heo
Make fscache operation to use only workqueue instead of combination of workqueue and slow-work. FSCACHE_OP_SLOW is dropped and FSCACHE_OP_FAST is renamed to FSCACHE_OP_ASYNC and uses newly added fscache_op_wq workqueue to execute op->processor(). fscache_operation_init_slow() is dropped and fscache_operation_init() now takes @processor argument directly. * Unbound workqueue is used. * fscache_retrieval_work() is no longer necessary as OP_ASYNC now does the equivalent thing. * sysctl fscache.operation_max_active added to control concurrency. The default value is nr_cpus clamped between 2 and WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE. * debugfs support is dropped for now. Tracing API based debug facility is planned to be added.

2010-07-22fscache: convert object to use workqueue instead of slow-workTejun Heo
Make fscache object state transition callbacks use workqueue instead of slow-work. New dedicated unbound CPU workqueue fscache_object_wq is created. get/put callbacks are renamed and modified to take @object and called directly from the enqueue wrapper and the work function. While at it, make all open coded instances of get/put to use fscache_get/put_object(). * Unbound workqueue is used. * work_busy() output is printed instead of slow-work flags in object debugging outputs. They mean basically the same thing bit-for-bit. * sysctl fscache.object_max_active added to control concurrency. The default value is nr_cpus clamped between 4 and WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE. * slow_work_sleep_till_thread_needed() is replaced with fscache private implementation fscache_object_sleep_till_congested() which waits on fscache_object_wq congestion. * debugfs support is dropped for now. Tracing API based debug facility is planned to be added. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

2009-04-03FS-Cache: Add cache managementDavid Howells
Implement the entry points by which a cache backend may initialise, add, declare an error upon and withdraw a cache. Further, an object is created in sysfs under which each cache added will get an object created: /sys/fs/fscache/<cachetag>/ All of this is described in Documentation/filesystems/caching/backend-api.txt added by a previous patch.

2009-04-03FS-Cache: Add use of /proc and presentation of statisticsDavid Howells
Make FS-Cache create its /proc interface and present various statistical information through it. Also provide the functions for updating this information. These features are enabled by: CONFIG_FSCACHE_PROC CONFIG_FSCACHE_STATS CONFIG_FSCACHE_HISTOGRAM The /proc directory for FS-Cache is also exported so that caching modules can add their own statistics there too. The FS-Cache module is loadable at this point, and the statistics files can be examined by userspace: cat /proc/fs/fscache/stats cat /proc/fs/fscache/histogram Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> Acked-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Acked-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Tested-by: Daire Byrne <Daire.Byrne@framestore.com>
2009-04-03FS-Cache: Add main configuration option, module entry points and debuggingDavid Howells
Add the main configuration option, allowing FS-Cache to be selected; the module entry and exit functions and the debugging stuff used by these patches. The two configuration options added are: CONFIG_FSCACHE CONFIG_FSCACHE_DEBUG The first enables the facility, and the second makes the debugging statements enableable through the "debug" module parameter. The value of this parameter is a bitmask as described in: Documentation/filesystems/caching/fscache.txt The module can be loaded at this point, but all it will do at this point in the patch series is to start up the slow work facility and shut it down again.
