0e9da3fbf7 Merge tag 'for-4.21/block-20181221' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main pull request for block/storage for 4.21.

  Larger than usual, it was a busy round with lots of goodies queued up.
  Most notable is the removal of the old IO stack, which has been a long
  time coming. No new features for a while, everything coming in this
  week has all been fixes for things that were previously merged.

  This contains:

   - Use atomic counters instead of semaphores for mtip32xx (Arnd)

   - Cleanup of the mtip32xx request setup (Christoph)

   - Fix for circular locking dependency in loop (Jan, Tetsuo)

   - bcache (Coly, Guoju, Shenghui)
      * Optimizations for writeback caching
      * Various fixes and improvements

   - nvme (Chaitanya, Christoph, Sagi, Jay, me, Keith)
      * host and target support for NVMe over TCP
      * Error log page support
      * Support for separate read/write/poll queues
      * Much improved polling
      * discard OOM fallback
      * Tracepoint improvements

   - lightnvm (Hans, Hua, Igor, Matias, Javier)
      * Igor added packed metadata to pblk. Now drives without metadata
        per LBA can be used as well.
      * Fix from Geert on uninitialized value on chunk metadata reads.
      * Fixes from Hans and Javier to pblk recovery and write path.
      * Fix from Hua Su to fix a race condition in the pblk recovery
        code.
      * Scan optimization added to pblk recovery from Zhoujie.
      * Small geometry cleanup from me.

   - Conversion of the last few drivers that used the legacy path to
     blk-mq (me)

   - Removal of legacy IO path in SCSI (me, Christoph)

   - Removal of legacy IO stack and schedulers (me)

   - Support for much better polling, now without interrupts at all.
     blk-mq adds support for multiple queue maps, which enables us to
     have a map per type. This in turn enables nvme to have separate
     completion queues for polling, which can then be interrupt-less.
     Also means we're ready for async polled IO, which is hopefully
     coming in the next release.

   - Killing of (now) unused block exports (Christoph)

   - Unification of the blk-rq-qos and blk-wbt wait handling (Josef)

   - Support for zoned testing with null_blk (Masato)

   - sx8 conversion to per-host tag sets (Christoph)

   - IO priority improvements (Damien)

   - mq-deadline zoned fix (Damien)

   - Ref count blkcg series (Dennis)

   - Lots of blk-mq improvements and speedups (me)

   - sbitmap scalability improvements (me)

   - Make core inflight IO accounting per-cpu (Mikulas)

   - Export timeout setting in sysfs (Weiping)

   - Cleanup the direct issue path (Jianchao)

   - Export blk-wbt internals in block debugfs for easier debugging
     (Ming)

   - Lots of other fixes and improvements"

cb03f94ffb fs/locks: merge posix_unblock_lock() and locks_delete_block()
posix_unblock_lock() is not specific to posix locks, and behaves
nearly identically to locks_delete_block() - the former returning a
status while the later doesn't.

So discard posix_unblock_lock() and use locks_delete_block() instead,
after giving that function an appropriate return value.

ada5c1da86 fs/locks: rename some lists and pointers.
struct file lock contains an 'fl_next' pointer which
is used to point to the lock that this request is blocked
waiting for.  So rename it to fl_blocker.

The fl_blocked list_head in an active lock is the head of a list of
blocked requests.  In a request it is a node in that list.
These are two distinct uses, so replace with two list_heads
with different names.
fl_blocked_requests is the head of a list of blocked requests
fl_blocked_member is a node in a member of that list.

The two different list_heads are never used at the same time, but that
will change in a future patch.

Note that a tracepoint is changed to report fl_blocker instead
of fl_next.

20578bdfd0 block: Initialize BIO I/O priority early
For the synchronous I/O path case (read(), write() etc system calls), a
BIO I/O priority is not initialized until the execution of
blk_init_request_from_bio() when the BIO is submitted and a request
initialized for the BIO execution. This is due to the ki_ioprio field of
the struct kiocb defined on stack being always initialized to
IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE, regardless of the calling process I/O context ioprio
value set with ioprio_set(). This late initialization can result in the
BIO being merged to pending requests even when the I/O priorities
differ.

Fix this by initializing the ki_iopriority field of on stack struct
kiocb using the get_current_ioprio() helper, ensuring that all BIOs
allocated and submitted for the system call execution see the correct
intended I/O priority early. With this, since a BIO I/O priority is
always set to the intended effective value for both the sync and async
path, blk_init_request_from_bio() can be simplified.

c2aa1a444c Merge tag 'xfs-4.20-merge-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux
Pull vfs dedup fixes from Dave Chinner:
 "This reworks the vfs data cloning infrastructure.

  We discovered many issues with these interfaces late in the 4.19 cycle
  - the worst of them (data corruption, setuid stripping) were fixed for
  XFS in 4.19-rc8, but a larger rework of the infrastructure fixing all
  the problems was needed. That rework is the contents of this pull
  request.

  Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range
  infrastructure to use a common .remap_file_range method and supply
  generic bounds and sanity checking functions that are shared with the
  data write path. The current VFS infrastructure has problems with
  rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps, maximum filesystem file
  sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are addressed in these
  commits.

  We also introduce the ability for the ->remap_file_range methods to
  return short clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get
  rejected if the entire range can't be cloned. It also allows
  filesystems to sliently skip deduplication of partial EOF blocks if
  they are not capable of doing so without requiring errors to be thrown
  to userspace.

  Existing filesystems are converted to user the new remap_file_range
  method, and both XFS and ocfs2 are modified to make use of the new
  generic checking infrastructure"

avoid stale post-eof data exposure.

42ec3d4c02 vfs: make remap_file_range functions take and return bytes completed
Change the remap_file_range functions to take a number of bytes to
operate upon and return the number of bytes they operated on.  This is a
requirement for allowing fs implementations to return short clone/dedupe
results to the user, which will enable us to obey resource limits in a
graceful manner.

A subsequent patch will enable copy_file_range to signal to the
->clone_file_range implementation that it can handle a short length,
which will be returned in the function's return value.  For now the
short return is not implemented anywhere so the behavior won't change --
either copy_file_range manages to clone the entire range or it tries an
alternative.

Neither clone ioctl can take advantage of this, alas.

   2. Converts the pagecache to use it

   3. Converts memremap to use it

  The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix
  tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap
  code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows
  us to remove the radix tree code that supported it.

  I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix
  tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first. The
  other conversions haven't been in linux-next and aren't suitable for
  applying yet, but you can see them in the xarray-conv branch if you're

721fb6fbfd fsnotify: Fix busy inodes during unmount
Detaching of mark connector from fsnotify_put_mark() can race with
unmounting of the filesystem like:

  CPU1				CPU2
fsnotify_put_mark()
  spin_lock(&conn->lock);
  ...
  inode = fsnotify_detach_connector_from_object(conn)
  spin_unlock(&conn->lock);
				generic_shutdown_super()
				  fsnotify_unmount_inodes()
				    sees connector detached for inode
				      -> nothing to do
				  evict_inode()
				    barfs on pending inode reference
  iput(inode);

Resulting in "Busy inodes after unmount" message and possible kernel
oops. Make fsnotify_unmount_inodes() properly wait for outstanding inode
references from detached connectors.

Note that the accounting of outstanding inode references in the
superblock can cause some cacheline contention on the counter. OTOH it
happens only during deletion of the last notification mark from an inode
(or during unlinking of watched inode) and that is not too bad. I have
measured time to create & delete inotify watch 100000 times from 64
processes in parallel (each process having its own inotify group and its
own file on a shared superblock) on a 64 CPU machine. Average and
standard deviation of 15 runs look like:

	Avg		Stddev
Vanilla	9.817400	0.276165
Fixed	9.710467	0.228294

So there's no statistically significant difference.

99c228a994 fs: group frequently accessed fields of struct super_block together
Kernel test robot reported [1] a 6% performance regression in a
concurrent unlink(2) workload on commit 60f7ed8c7c ("fsnotify: send
path type events to group with super block marks").

The performance test was run with no fsnotify marks at all on the
data set, so the only extra instructions added by the offending
commit are tests of the super_block fields s_fsnotify_{marks,mask}
and these tests happen on almost every single inode access.

When adding those fields to the super_block struct, we did not give much
thought of placing them on a hot cache lines (we just placed them at the
end of the struct).

Re-organize struct super_block to try and keep some frequently accessed
fields on the same cache line.

Move the frequently accessed fields s_fsnotify_{marks,mask} near the
frequently accessed fields s_fs_info,s_time_gran, while filling a 64bit
alignment hole after s_time_gran.

Move the seldom accessed fields s_id,s_uuid,s_max_links,s_mode near the
seldom accessed fields s_vfs_rename_mutex,s_subtype.

Rong Chen confirmed that this patch solved the reported problem.

a725356b66 vfs: swap names of {do,vfs}_clone_file_range()
Commit 031a072a0b ("vfs: call vfs_clone_file_range() under freeze
protection") created a wrapper do_clone_file_range() around
vfs_clone_file_range() moving the freeze protection to former, so
overlayfs could call the latter.

The more common vfs practice is to call do_xxx helpers from vfs_xxx
helpers, where freeze protecction is taken in the vfs_xxx helper, so
this anomality could be a source of confusion.

It seems that commit 8ede205541 ("ovl: add reflink/copyfile/dedup
support") may have fallen a victim to this confusion -
ovl_clone_file_range() calls the vfs_clone_file_range() helper in the
hope of getting freeze protection on upper fs, but in fact results in
overlayfs allowing to bypass upper fs freeze protection.

Swap the names of the two helpers to conform to common vfs practice
and call the correct helpers from overlayfs and nfsd.
