2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2013-11-20Squashfs: Directly decompress into the page cache for file dataPhillip Lougher
This introduces an implementation of squashfs_readpage_block() that directly decompresses into the page cache. This uses the previously added page handler abstraction to push down the necessary kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic operations on the page cache buffers into the decompressors. This enables direct copying into the page cache without using the slow kmap/kunmap calls. The code detects when multiple threads are racing in squashfs_readpage() to decompress the same block, and avoids this regression by falling back to using an intermediate buffer. This patch enhances the performance of Squashfs significantly when multiple processes are accessing the filesystem simultaneously because it not only reduces memcopying, but it more importantly eliminates the lock contention on the intermediate buffer. Using single-thread decompression. dd if=file1 of=/dev/null bs=4096 & dd if=file2 of=/dev/null bs=4096 & dd if=file3 of=/dev/null bs=4096 & dd if=file4 of=/dev/null bs=4096 Before: 629145600 bytes (629 MB) copied, 45.8046 s, 13.7 MB/s After: 629145600 bytes (629 MB) copied, 9.29414 s, 67.7 MB/s Signed-off-by: Phillip Lougher <phillip@squashfs.org.uk> Reviewed-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>
2013-11-20Squashfs: Generalise paging handling in the decompressorsPhillip Lougher
Further generalise the decompressors by adding a page handler abstraction. This adds helpers to allow the decompressors to access and process the output buffers in an implementation independant manner. This allows different types of output buffer to be passed to the decompressors, with the implementation specific aspects handled at decompression time, but without the knowledge being held in the decompressor wrapper code. This will allow the decompressors to handle Squashfs cache buffers, and page cache pages. This patch adds the abstraction and an implementation for the caches.
