filesystem-dax: Introduce dax_lock_mapping_entry()
In preparation for implementing support for memory poison (media error) handling via dax mappings, implement a lock_page() equivalent. Poison error handling requires rmap and needs guarantees that the page->mapping association is maintained / valid (inode not freed) for the duration of the lookup. In the device-dax case it is sufficient to simply hold a dev_pagemap reference. In the filesystem-dax case we need to use the entry lock. Export the entry lock via dax_lock_mapping_entry() that uses rcu_read_lock() to protect against the inode being freed, and revalidates the page->mapping association under xa_lock().

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This adds a user for the new 'bytes-remaining' updates to
memcpy_mcsafe() that you already received through Ingo via the
x86-dax- for-linus pull.
Not included here, but still targeting this cycle, is support for
handling memory media errors (poison) consumed via userspace dax
mappings.
Summary:
- DAX broke a fundamental assumption of truncate of file mapped
pages. The truncate path assumed that it is safe to disconnect a
pinned page from a file and let the filesystem reclaim the physical
block. With DAX the page is equivalent to the filesystem block.
Introduce dax_layout_busy_page() to enable filesystems to wait for
pinned DAX pages to be released. Without this wait a filesystem
could allocate blocks under active device-DMA to a new file.
- DAX arranges for the block layer to be bypassed and uses
dax_direct_access() + copy_to_iter() to satisfy read(2) calls.
However, the memcpy_mcsafe() facility is available through the pmem
block driver. In order to safely handle media errors, via the DAX
block-layer bypass, introduce copy_to_iter_mcsafe().
- Fix cache management policy relative to the ACPI NFIT Platform
Capabilities Structure to properly elide cache flushes when they
are not necessary. The table indicates whether CPU caches are
power-fail protected. Clarify that a deep flush is always performed
on REQ_{FUA,PREFLUSH} requests"

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just

The function return values are confusing with the way the function is named. We expect a true or false return value but it actually returns 0/-errno. This makes the code very confusing.

fs: allow per-device dax status checking for filesystems
Change bdev_dax_supported so it takes a bdev parameter. This enables multi-device filesystems like xfs to check that a dax device can work for the particular filesystem. Once that's in place, actually fix all the parts of XFS where we need to be able to distinguish between datadev and rtdev.

mm, fs, dax: handle layout changes to pinned dax mappings
Background:
get_user_pages() in the filesystem pins file backed memory pages for
access by devices performing dma. However, it only pins the memory pages
not the page-to-file offset association. If a file is truncated the
pages are mapped out of the file and dma may continue indefinitely into
a page that is owned by a device driver. This breaks coherency of the
file vs dma, but the assumption is that if userspace wants the
file-space truncated it does not matter what data is inbound from the
device, it is not relevant anymore. The only expectation is that dma can
safely continue while the filesystem reallocates the block(s).
Problem:
This expectation that dma can safely continue while the filesystem
changes the block map is broken by dax. With dax the target dma page
*is* the filesystem block. The model of leaving the page pinned for dma,
but truncating the file block out of the file, means that the filesytem
is free to reallocate a block under active dma to another file and now
the expected data-incoherency situation has turned into active
data-corruption.
Solution:
Defer all filesystem operations (fallocate(), truncate()) on a dax mode
file while any page/block in the file is under active dma. This solution
assumes that dma is transient. Cases where dma operations are known to
not be transient, like RDMA, have been explicitly disabled via
commits like

Pull libnvdimm and dax updates from Dan Williams:
"Save for a few late fixes, all of these commits have shipped in -next
releases since before the merge window opened, and 0day has given a
build success notification.
The ext4 touches came from Jan, and the xfs touches have Darrick's
reviewed-by. An xfstest for the MAP_SYNC feature has been through
a few round of reviews and is on track to be merged.
- Introduce MAP_SYNC and MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to enable
'userspace flush' of persistent memory updates via filesystem-dax
mappings. It arranges for any filesystem metadata updates that may
be required to satisfy a write fault to also be flushed ("on disk")
before the kernel returns to userspace from the fault handler.
Effectively every write-fault that dirties metadata completes an
fsync() before returning from the fault handler. The new
MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE mapping type guarantees that the MAP_SYNC flag
is validated as supported by the filesystem's ->mmap() file
operation.
- Add support for the standard ACPI 6.2 label access methods that
replace the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL (vendor specific) label methods.
This enables interoperability with environments that only implement
the standardized methods.
- Add support for the ACPI 6.2 NVDIMM media error injection methods.
- Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL v1.6 DIMM commands for
latch last shutdown status, firmware update, SMART error injection,
and SMART alarm threshold control.
- Cleanup physical address information disclosures to be root-only.
- Fix revalidation of the DIMM "locked label area" status to support
dynamic unlock of the label area.
- Expand unit test infrastructure to mock the ACPI 6.2 Translate SPA

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

dax: use common 4k zero page for dax mmap reads
When servicing mmap() reads from file holes the current DAX code
allocates a page cache page of all zeroes and places the struct page
pointer in the mapping->page_tree radix tree.
This has three major drawbacks:
1) It consumes memory unnecessarily. For every 4k page that is read via
a DAX mmap() over a hole, we allocate a new page cache page. This
means that if you read 1GiB worth of pages, you end up using 1GiB of
zeroed memory. This is easily visible by looking at the overall
memory consumption of the system or by looking at /proc/[pid]/smaps:
7f62e72b3000-7f63272b3000 rw-s 00000000 103:00 12 /root/dax/data

KernelPageSize: 4 kB
MMUPageSize: 4 kB
Locked: 0 kB
2) It is slower than using a common zero page because each page fault
has more work to do. Instead of just inserting a common zero page we
have to allocate a page cache page, zero it, and then insert it. Here
are the average latencies of dax_load_hole() as measured by ftrace on
a random test box:
Old method, using zeroed page cache pages: 3.4 us
New method, using the common 4k zero page: 0.8 us
This was the average latency over 1 GiB of sequential reads done by
this simple fio script:
[global]
size=1G
filename=/root/dax/data
fallocate=none
[io]
rw=read

3) The fact that we had to check for both DAX exceptional entries and
for page cache pages in the radix tree made the DAX code more
complex.
Solve these issues by following the lead of the DAX PMD code and using a
common 4k zero page instead. As with the PMD code we will now insert a
DAX exceptional entry into the radix tree instead of a struct page
pointer which allows us to remove all the special casing in the DAX
code.
Note that we do still pretty aggressively check for regular pages in the
DAX radix tree, especially where we take action based on the bits set in
the page. If we ever find a regular page in our radix tree now that
most likely means that someone besides DAX is inserting pages (which has
happened lots of times in the past), and we want to find that out early
and fail loudly.
This solution also removes the extra memory consumption. Here is that
same /proc/[pid]/smaps after 1GiB of reading from a hole with the new
code:
7f2054a74000-7f2094a74000 rw-s 00000000 103:00 12 /root/dax/data
Size: 1048576 kB

Private_Hugetlb: 0 kB

KernelPageSize: 4 kB
MMUPageSize: 4 kB
Locked: 0 kB
Overall system memory consumption is similarly improved.
Another major change is that we remove dax_pfn_mkwrite() from our fault
flow, and instead rely on the page fault itself to make the PTE dirty
and writeable. The following description from the patch adding the
vm_insert_mixed_mkwrite() call explains this a little more:
"To be able to use the common 4k zero page in DAX we need to have our
PTE fault path look more like our PMD fault path where a PTE entry
can be marked as dirty and writeable as it is first inserted rather
than waiting for a follow-up dax_pfn_mkwrite() =>
finish_mkwrite_fault() call.
Right now we can rely on having a dax_pfn_mkwrite() call because we
can distinguish between these two cases in do_wp_page():
case 1: 4k zero page => writable DAX storage
case 2: read-only DAX storage => writeable DAX storage
This distinction is made by via vm_normal_page(). vm_normal_page()
returns false for the common 4k zero page, though, just as it does
for DAX ptes. Instead of special casing the DAX + 4k zero page case
we will simplify our DAX PTE page fault sequence so that it matches
our DAX PMD sequence, and get rid of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() helper.
We will instead use dax_iomap_fault() to handle write-protection
faults.
This means that insert_pfn() needs to follow the lead of
insert_pfn_pmd() and allow us to pass in a 'mkwrite' flag. If
'mkwrite' is set insert_pfn() will do the work that was previously
done by wp_page_reuse() as part of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() call path"

dax: introduce a fs_dax_get_by_bdev() helper
Add a helper that can replace the following common pattern: if (blk_queue_dax(bdev->bd_queue)) fs_dax_get_by_host(bdev->bd_disk->disk_name); This will be used to move dax_device lookup from iomap-operation time to fs-mount time.

dm, dax: Make sure dm_dax_flush() is called if device supports it
Currently dm_dax_flush() is not being called, even if underlying dax
device supports write cache, because DAXDEV_WRITE_CACHE is not being
propagated up to the DM dax device.
If the underlying dax device supports write cache, set
DAXDEV_WRITE_CACHE on the DM dax device. This will cause dm_dax_flush()
to be called.

mm: always enable thp for dax mappings
The madvise policy for transparent huge pages is meant to avoid unwanted allocations of transparent huge pages. It allows a policy of disabling the extra memory pressure and effort to arrange for a huge page when it is not needed. DAX by definition never incurs this overhead since it is statically allocated. The policy choice makes even less sense for device-dax which tries to guarantee a given tlb-fault size. Specifically, the following setting: echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled ...violates that guarantee and silently disables all device-dax instances with a 2M or 1G alignment. So, let's avoid that non-obvious side effect by force enabling thp for dax mappings in all cases. It is worth noting that the reason this uses vma_is_dax(), and the resulting header include changes, is that previous attempts to add a VM_DAX flag were NAKd.
