2023-11-20filemap: add a per-mapping stable writes flagChristoph Hellwig
folio_wait_stable waits for writeback to finish before modifying the contents of a folio again, e.g. to support check summing of the data in the block integrity code. Currently this behavior is controlled by the SB_I_STABLE_WRITES flag on the super_block, which means it is uniform for the entire file system. This is wrong for the block device pseudofs which is shared by all block devices, or file systems that can use multiple devices like XFS witht the RT subvolume or btrfs (although btrfs currently reimplements folio_wait_stable anyway). Add a per-address_space AS_STABLE_WRITES flag to control the behavior in a more fine grained way. The existing SB_I_STABLE_WRITES is kept to initialize AS_STABLE_WRITES to the existing default which covers most cases.

2023-07-08writeback: account the number of pages written backMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)
nr_to_write is a count of pages, so we need to decrease it by the number of pages in the folio we just wrote, not by 1. Most callers specify either LONG_MAX or 1, so are unaffected, but writeback_sb_inodes() might end up writing 512x as many pages as it asked for.

2023-01-18mm: remove zap_page_range and create zap_vma_pagesMike Kravetz
zap_page_range was originally designed to unmap pages within an address range that could span multiple vmas. While working on [1], it was discovered that all callers of zap_page_range pass a range entirely within a single vma. In addition, the mmu notification call within zap_page range does not correctly handle ranges that span multiple vmas. When crossing a vma boundary, a new mmu_notifier_range_init/end call pair with the new vma should be made. Instead of fixing zap_page_range, do the following: - Create a new routine zap_vma_pages() that will remove all pages within the passed vma. Most users of zap_page_range pass the entire vma and can use this new routine. - For callers of zap_page_range not passing the entire vma, instead call zap_page_range_single(). - Remove zap_page_range.

2022-11-30mm: add bdi_set_strict_limit() functionStefan Roesch
Patch series "mm/block: add bdi sysfs knobs", v4. At meta network block devices (nbd) are used to implement remote block storage. In testing and during production it has been observed that these network block devices can consume a huge portion of the dirty writeback cache and writeback can take a considerable time. To be able to give stricter limits, I'm proposing the following changes: 1) introduce strictlimit knob Currently the max_ratio knob exists to limit the dirty_memory. However this knob only applies once (dirty_ratio + dirty_background_ratio) / 2 has been reached. With the BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT flag, the max_ratio can be applied without reaching that limit. This change exposes that knob. This knob can also be useful for NFS, fuse filesystems and USB devices. 2) Use part of 1000000 internal calculation The max_ratio is based on percentage. With the current machine sizes percentage values can be very high (1% of a 256GB main memory is already 2.5GB). This change uses part of 1000000 instead of percentages for the internal calculations. 3) Introduce two new sysfs knobs: min_bytes and max_bytes. Currently all calculations are based on ratio, but for a user it often more convenient to specify a limit in bytes. The new knobs will not store bytes values, instead they will translate the byte value to a corresponding ratio. As the internal values are now part of 1000, the ratio is closer to the specified value. However the value should be more seen as an approximation as it can fluctuate over time. 3) Introduce two new sysfs knobs: min_ratio_fine and max_ratio_fine. The granularity for the existing sysfs bdi knobs min_ratio and max_ratio is based on percentage values. The new sysfs bdi knobs min_ratio_fine and max_ratio_fine allow to specify the ratio as part of 1 million. This patch (of 20): This adds the bdi_set_strict_limit function to be able to set/unset the BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT flag.

2022-08-28writeback: avoid use-after-free after removing deviceKhazhismel Kumykov
When a disk is removed, bdi_unregister gets called to stop further writeback and wait for associated delayed work to complete. However, wb_inode_writeback_end() may schedule bandwidth estimation dwork after this has completed, which can result in the timer attempting to access the just freed bdi_writeback. Fix this by checking if the bdi_writeback is alive, similar to when scheduling writeback work. Since this requires wb->work_lock, and wb_inode_writeback_end() may get called from interrupt, switch wb->work_lock to an irqsafe lock.

filemap_unaccount_folio() has a WARN_ON_ONCE(folio_test_dirty(folio)). It is good to warn of late dirtying on a persistent filesystem, but late dirtying on tmpfs can only lose data which is expected to be thrown away; and it's a pity if that warning comes ONCE on tmpfs, then hides others which really matter. Make it conditional on mapping_cap_writeback(). Cleanup: then folio_account_cleaned() no longer needs to check that for itself, and so no longer needs to know the mapping.

2021-11-06mm/vmscan: centralise timeout values for reclaim_throttleMel Gorman
Neil Brown raised concerns about callers of reclaim_throttle specifying a timeout value. The original timeout values to congestion_wait() were probably pulled out of thin air or copy&pasted from somewhere else. This patch centralises the timeout values and selects a timeout based on the reason for reclaim throttling. These figures are also pulled out of the same thin air but better values may be derived Running a workload that is throttling for inappropriate periods and tracing mm_vmscan_throttled can be used to pick a more appropriate value. Excessive throttling would pick a lower timeout where as excessive CPU usage in reclaim context would select a larger timeout. Ideally a large value would always be used and the wakeups would occur before a timeout but that requires careful testing.

2021-11-06mm/writeback: throttle based on page writeback instead of congestionMel Gorman
do_writepages throttles on congestion if the writepages() fails due to a lack of memory but congestion_wait() is partially broken as the congestion state is not updated for all BDIs. This patch stalls waiting for a number of pages to complete writeback that located on the local node. The main weakness is that there is no correlation between the location of the inode's pages and locality but that is still better than congestion_wait.

2021-10-18mm/writeback: Add folio_write_oneMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Transform write_one_page() into folio_write_one() and add a compatibility wrapper. Also move the declaration to pagemap.h as this is page cache functionality that doesn't need to be used by the rest of the kernel. Saves 58 bytes of kernel text. While folio_write_one() is 101 bytes smaller than write_one_page(), the inlined call to page_folio() expands each caller. There are fewer than ten callers so it doesn't seem worth putting a wrapper in the core. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
