In fscache_create_volume(), there is a missing memory barrier between the
bit-clearing operation and the wake-up operation. This may cause a
situation where, after a wake-up, the bit-clearing operation hasn't been
detected yet, leading to an indefinite wait. The triggering process is as
follows:
[cookie1] [cookie2] [volume_work]
fscache_perform_lookup
fscache_create_volume
fscache_perform_lookup
fscache_create_volume
fscache_create_volume_work
cachefiles_acquire_volume
clear_and_wake_up_bit
test_and_set_bit
test_and_set_bit
goto maybe_wait
goto no_wait
In the above process, cookie1 and cookie2 has the same volume. When cookie1
enters the -no_wait- process, it will clear the bit and wake up the waiting
process. If a barrier is missing, it may cause cookie2 to remain in the
-wait- process indefinitely.
In commit 3288666c72 ("fscache: Use clear_and_wake_up_bit() in
fscache_create_volume_work()"), barriers were added to similar operations
in fscache_create_volume_work(), but fscache_create_volume() was missed.
By combining the clear and wake operations into clear_and_wake_up_bit() to
fix this issue.

In the I/O locking code borrowed from NFS into netfslib, i_rwsem is held
locked across a buffered write - but this causes a performance regression
in cifs as it excludes buffered reads for the duration (cifs didn't use any
locking for buffered reads).
Mitigate this somewhat by downgrading the i_rwsem to a read lock across the
buffered write. This at least allows parallel reads to occur whilst
excluding other writes, DIO, truncate and setattr.
Note that this shouldn't be a problem for a buffered write as a read
through an mmap can circumvent i_rwsem anyway.
Also note that we might want to make this change in NFS also.

netfslib currently defers dropping the ref on the folios it obtains during
readahead to after it has started I/O on the basis that we can do it whilst
we wait for the I/O to complete, but this runs the risk of the I/O
collection racing with this in future.
Furthermore, Matthew Wilcox strongly suggests that the refs should be
dropped immediately, as readahead_folio() does (netfslib is using
__readahead_batch() which doesn't drop the refs).

We can't return with VM_FAULT_SIGBUS | VM_FAULT_LOCKED; the core
code will not unlock the folio in this instance. Introduce a new
"unlock" error exit to handle this case. Use it to handle
the "folio is truncated" check, and change the "writeback interrupted
by a fatal signal" to do a NOPAGE exit instead of letting the core
code install the folio currently under writeback before killing the

After dividing up a proposed write into subrequests, netfslib sets
NETFS_RREQ_ALL_QUEUED to indicate to the collector that it can move on to
the final cleanup once it has emptied the subrequest queues.
Now, whilst the collector will normally end up running at least once after
this bit is set just because it takes a while to process all the write
subrequests before the collector runs out of subrequests, there exists the
possibility that the issuing thread will be forced to sleep and the
collector thread will clean up all the subrequests before ALL_QUEUED gets
set.
In such a case, the collector thread will not get triggered again and will
never clear NETFS_RREQ_IN_PROGRESS thus leaving a request uncompleted and
causing a potential futute hang.
Fix this by scheduling the write collector if all the subrequest queues are
empty (and thus no writes pending issuance).
Note that we'd do this ideally before queuing the subrequest, but in the
case of buffered writeback, at least, we can't find out that we've run out
of folios until after we've called writeback_iter() and it has returned
NULL - at which point we might not actually have any subrequests still
under construction.

In netfslib, a buffered writeback operation has a 'write queue' of folios
that are being written, held in a linear sequence of folio_queue structs.
The 'issuer' adds new folio_queues on the leading edge of the queue and
populates each one progressively; the 'collector' pops them off the
trailing edge and discards them and the folios they point to as they are
consumed.
The queue is required to always retain at least one folio_queue structure.
This allows the queue to be accessed without locking and with just a bit of
barriering.
When a new subrequest is prepared, its ->io_iter iterator is pointed at the
current end of the write queue and then the iterator is extended as more
data is added to the queue until the subrequest is committed.
Now, the problem is that the folio_queue at the leading edge of the write
queue when a subrequest is prepared might have been entirely consumed - but
not yet removed from the queue as it is the only remaining one and is
preventing the queue from collapsing.
So, what happens is that subreq->io_iter is pointed at the spent
folio_queue, then a new folio_queue is added, and, at that point, the
collector is at entirely at liberty to immediately delete the spent
folio_queue.
This leaves the subreq->io_iter pointing at a freed object. If the system
is lucky, iterate_folioq() sees ->io_iter, sees the as-yet uncorrupted
freed object and advances to the next folio_queue in the queue.
In the case seen, however, the freed object gets recycled and put back onto
the queue at the tail and filled to the end. This confuses
iterate_folioq() and it tries to step ->next, which may be NULL - resulting
in an oops.
Fix this by the following means:
(1) When preparing a write subrequest, make sure there's a folio_queue
struct with space in it at the leading edge of the queue. A function
to make space is split out of the function to append a folio so that
it can be called for this purpose.
(2) If the request struct iterator is pointing to a completely spent
folio_queue when we make space, then advance the iterator to the newly
allocated folio_queue. The subrequest's iterator will then be set
from this.
The oops could be triggered using the generic/346 xfstest with a filesystem
on9P over TCP with cache=loose. The oops looked something like:

The flag gets set correctly on buffered writes, but doesn't get set by

Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to improve read/write performance for the new
netfs library.
The main performance enhancing changes are:
- Define a structure, struct folio_queue, and a new iterator type,
ITER_FOLIOQ, to hold a buffer as a replacement for ITER_XARRAY. See
that patch for questions about naming and form.
ITER_FOLIOQ is provided as a replacement for ITER_XARRAY. The
problem with an xarray is that accessing it requires the use of a
lock (typically the RCU read lock) - and this means that we can't
supply iterate_and_advance() with a step function that might sleep
(crypto for example) without having to drop the lock between pages.
ITER_FOLIOQ is the iterator for a chain of folio_queue structs,
where each folio_queue holds a small list of folios. A folio_queue
struct is a simpler structure than xarray and is not subject to
concurrent manipulation by the VM. folio_queue is used rather than
a bvec[] as it can form lists of indefinite size, adding to one end
and removing from the other on the fly.
- Provide a copy_folio_from_iter() wrapper.
- Make cifs RDMA support ITER_FOLIOQ.
- Use folio queues in the write-side helpers instead of xarrays.
- Add a function to reset the iterator in a subrequest.
- Simplify the write-side helpers to use sheaves to skip gaps rather
than trying to work out where gaps are.
- In afs, make the read subrequests asynchronous, putting them into
work items to allow the next patch to do progressive
unlocking/reading.
- Overhaul the read-side helpers to improve performance.
- Fix the caching of a partial block at the end of a file.
- Allow a store to be cancelled.
Then some changes for cifs to make it use folio queues instead of
xarrays for crypto bufferage:
- Use raw iteration functions rather than manually coding iteration
when hashing data.
- Switch to using folio_queue for crypto buffers.
- Remove the xarray bits.
Make some adjustments to the /proc/fs/netfs/stats file such that:
- All the netfs stats lines begin 'Netfs:' but change this to
something a bit more useful.
- Add a couple of stats counters to track the numbers of skips and
waits on the per-inode writeback serialisation lock to make it
easier to check for this as a source of performance loss.
Miscellaneous work:
- Ensure that the sb_writers lock is taken around
vfs_{set,remove}xattr() in the cachefiles code.
- Reduce the number of conditional branches in netfs_perform_write().
- Move the CIFS_INO_MODIFIED_ATTR flag to the netfs_inode struct and
remove cifs_post_modify().
- Move the max_len/max_nr_segs members from netfs_io_subrequest to
netfs_io_request as they're only needed for one subreq at a time.
- Add an 'unknown' source value for tracing purposes.
- Remove NETFS_COPY_TO_CACHE as it's no longer used.
- Set the request work function up front at allocation time.
- Use bh-disabling spinlocks for rreq->lock as cachefiles completion
may be run from block-filesystem DIO completion in softirq context.
- Remove fs/netfs/io.c"

Merge tag 'vfs-6.12.misc' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual pile of misc updates:
Features:
- Add F_CREATED_QUERY fcntl() that allows userspace to query whether
a file was actually created. Often userspace wants to know whether
an O_CREATE request did actually create a file without using
O_EXCL. The current logic is that to first attempts to open the
file without O_CREAT | O_EXCL and if ENOENT is returned userspace
tries again with both flags. If that succeeds all is well. If it
now reports EEXIST it retries.
That works fairly well but some corner cases make this more
involved. If this operates on a dangling symlink the first openat()
without O_CREAT | O_EXCL will return ENOENT but the second openat()
with O_CREAT | O_EXCL will fail with EEXIST.
The reason is that openat() without O_CREAT | O_EXCL follows the
symlink while O_CREAT | O_EXCL doesn't for security reasons. So
it's not something we can really change unless we add an explicit
opt-in via O_FOLLOW which seems really ugly.
All available workarounds are really nasty (fanotify, bpf lsm etc)
so add a simple fcntl().
- Try an opportunistic lookup for O_CREAT. Today, when opening a file
we'll typically do a fast lookup, but if O_CREAT is set, the kernel
always takes the exclusive inode lock. This was likely done with
the expectation that O_CREAT means that we always expect to do the
create, but that's often not the case. Many programs set O_CREAT
even in scenarios where the file already exists (see related
F_CREATED_QUERY patch motivation above).
The series contained in the pr rearranges the pathwalk-for-open
code to also attempt a fast_lookup in certain O_CREAT cases. If a
positive dentry is found, the inode_lock can be avoided altogether
and it can stay in rcuwalk mode for the last step_into.
- Expose the 64 bit mount id via name_to_handle_at()
Now that we provide a unique 64-bit mount ID interface in statx(2),
we can now provide a race-free way for name_to_handle_at(2) to
provide a file handle and corresponding mount without needing to
worry about racing with /proc/mountinfo parsing or having to open a
file just to do statx(2).
While this is not necessary if you are using AT_EMPTY_PATH and
don't care about an extra statx(2) call, users that pass full paths
into name_to_handle_at(2) need to know which mount the file handle
comes from (to make sure they don't try to open_by_handle_at a file
handle from a different filesystem) and switching to AT_EMPTY_PATH
would require allocating a file for every name_to_handle_at(2) call
- Add a per dentry expire timeout to autofs
There are two fairly well known automounter map formats, the autofs
format and the amd format (more or less System V and Berkley).
Some time ago Linux autofs added an amd map format parser that
implemented a fair amount of the amd functionality. This was done
within the autofs infrastructure and some functionality wasn't
implemented because it either didn't make sense or required extra
kernel changes. The idea was to restrict changes to be within the
existing autofs functionality as much as possible and leave changes
with a wider scope to be considered later.
One of these changes is implementing the amd options:
1) "unmount", expire this mount according to a timeout (same as
the current autofs default).
2) "nounmount", don't expire this mount (same as setting the
autofs timeout to 0 except only for this specific mount) .
3) "utimeout=<seconds>", expire this mount using the specified
timeout (again same as setting the autofs timeout but only for
this mount)
To implement these options per-dentry expire timeouts need to be
implemented for autofs indirect mounts. This is because all map
keys (mounts) for autofs indirect mounts use an expire timeout
stored in the autofs mount super block info. structure and all
indirect mounts use the same expire timeout.
Fixes:
- Fix missing fput for FSCONFIG_SET_FD in autofs
- Use param->file for FSCONFIG_SET_FD in coda
- Delete the 'fs/netfs' proc subtreee when netfs module exits

Kafs wants to be able to cache the contents of directories (and symlinks),
but whilst these are downloaded from the server with the FS.FetchData RPC
op and similar, the same as for regular files, they can't be updated by
FS.StoreData, but rather have special operations (FS.MakeDir, etc.).
Now, rather than redownloading a directory's content after each change made
to that directory, kafs modifies the local blob. This blob can be saved
out to the cache, and since it's using netfslib, kafs just marks the folios
dirty and lets ->writepages() on the directory take care of it, as for an
regular file.
This is fine as long as there's a cache as although the upload stream is
disabled, there's a cache stream to drive the procedure. But if the cache
goes away in the meantime, suddenly there's no way do any writes and the
code gets confused, complains "R=%x: No submit" to dmesg and leaves the
dirty folio hanging.
Fix this by just cancelling the store of the folio if neither stream is
active. (If there's no cache at the time of dirtying, we should just not
mark the folio dirty).

Because it uses DIO writes, cachefiles is unable to make a write to the
backing file if that write is not aligned to and sized according to the
backing file's DIO block alignment. This makes it tricky to handle a write
to the cache where the EOF on the network file is not correctly aligned.
To get around this, netfslib attempts to tell the driver it is calling how
much more data there is available beyond the EOF that it can use to pad the
write (netfslib preclears the part of the folio above the EOF). However,
it tries to tell the cache what the maximum length is, but doesn't
calculate this correctly; and, in any case, cachefiles actually ignores the
value and just skips the block.
Fix this by:
(1) Change the value passed to indicate the amount of extra data that can
be added to the operation (now ->submit_extendable_to). This is much
simpler to calculate as it's just the end of the folio minus the top
of the data within the folio - rather than having to account for data
spread over multiple folios.
(2) Make cachefiles add some of this data if the subrequest it is given
ends at the network file's i_size if the extra data is sufficient to
pad out to a whole block.

Improve the efficiency of buffered reads in a number of ways:
(1) Overhaul the algorithm in general so that it's a lot more compact and
split the read submission code between buffered and unbuffered
versions. The unbuffered version can be vastly simplified.
(2) Read-result collection is handed off to a work queue rather than being
done in the I/O thread. Multiple subrequests can be processes
simultaneously.
(3) When a subrequest is collected, any folios it fully spans are
collected and "spare" data on either side is donated to either the
previous or the next subrequest in the sequence.
Notes:
(*) Readahead expansion is massively slows down fio, presumably because it
causes a load of extra allocations, both folio and xarray, up front
before RPC requests can be transmitted.
(*) RDMA with cifs does appear to work, both with SIW and RXE.
(*) PG_private_2-based reading and copy-to-cache is split out into its own
file and altered to use folio_queue. Note that the copy to the cache
now creates a new write transaction against the cache and adds the
folios to be copied into it. This allows it to use part of the
writeback I/O code.

Use the new folio_queue structures to simplify the writeback code. The
problem with referring to the i_pages xarray directly is that we may have
gaps in the sequence of folios we're writing from that we need to skip when
we're removing the writeback mark from the folios we're writing back from.
At the moment the code tries to deal with this by carefully tracking the
gaps in each writeback stream (eg. write to server and write to cache) and
divining when there's a gap that spans folios (something that's not helped
by folios not being a consistent size).
Instead, the folio_queue buffer contains pointers only the folios we're
dealing with, has them in ascending order and indicates a gap by placing
non-consequitive folios next to each other. This makes it possible to
track where we need to clean up to by just keeping track of where we've
processed to on each stream and taking the minimum.
Note that the I/O iterator is always rounded up to the end of the folio,
even if that is beyond the EOF position, so that the cache can do DIO from
the page. The excess space is cleared, though mmapped writes clobber it.

Make the netfs write-side routines use the new folio_queue struct to hold a
rolling buffer of folios, with the issuer adding folios at the tail and the
collector removing them from the head as they're processed instead of using
an xarray.
This will allow a subsequent patch to simplify the write collector.
The primary mark (as tested by folioq_is_marked()) is used to note if the
corresponding folio needs putting.

Short DIO reads, particularly in relation to cifs, are not being handled
correctly by cifs and netfslib. This can be tested by doing a DIO read of
a file where the size of read is larger than the size of the file. When it
crosses the EOF, it gets a short read and this gets retried, and in the
case of cifs, the retry read fails, with the failure being translated to
ENODATA.
Fix this by the following means:
(1) Add a flag, NETFS_SREQ_HIT_EOF, for the filesystem to set when it
detects that the read did hit the EOF.
(2) Make the netfslib read assessment stop processing subrequests when it
encounters one with that flag set.
(3) Return rreq->transferred, the accumulated contiguous amount read to
that point, to userspace for a DIO read.
(4) Make cifs set the flag and clear the error if the read RPC returned
ENODATA.
(5) Make cifs set the flag and clear the error if a short read occurred
without error and the read-to file position is now at the remote inode
size.

When netfslib asks cifs to issue a read operation, it prefaces this with a
call to ->clamp_length() which cifs uses to negotiate credits, providing
receive capacity on the server; however, in the event that a read op needs
reissuing, netfslib doesn't call ->clamp_length() again as that could
shorten the subrequest, leaving a gap.
This causes the retried read to be done with zero credits which causes the
server to reject it with STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER. This is a problem for a
DIO read that is requested that would go over the EOF. The short read will
be retried, causing EINVAL to be returned to the user when it fails.
Fix this by making cifs_req_issue_read() negotiate new credits if retrying
(NETFS_SREQ_RETRYING now gets set in the read side as well as the write
side in this instance).
This isn't sufficient, however: the new credits might not be sufficient to
complete the remainder of the read, so also add an additional field,
rreq->actual_len, that holds the actual size of the op we want to perform
without having to alter subreq->len.
We then rely on repeated short reads being retried until we finish the read
or reach the end of file and make a zero-length read.
Also fix a couple of places where the subrequest start and length need to
be altered by the amount so far transferred when being used.

When a folio that is marked for streaming write (dirty, but not uptodate,
with partial content specified in the private data) is written back, the
folio is effectively switched to the blank state upon completion of the
write. This means that if we want to read it in future, we need to reread
the whole folio.
However, if the folio is above the zero_point position, when it is read
back, it will just be cleared and the read skipped, leading to apparent
local corruption.
Fix this by increasing the zero_point to the end of the dirty data in the
folio when clearing the folio state after writeback. This is analogous to
the folio having ->release_folio() called upon it.
This was causing the config.log generated by configuring a cpython tree on
a cifs share to get corrupted because the scripts involved were appending
text to the file in small pieces.

When netfslib writes to a folio that it doesn't have data for, but that
data exists on the server, it will make a 'streaming write' whereby it
stores data in a folio that is marked dirty, but not uptodate. When it
does this, it attaches a record to folio->private to track the dirty
region.
When truncate() or fallocate() wants to invalidate part of such a folio, it
will call into ->invalidate_folio(), specifying the part of the folio that
is to be invalidated. netfs_invalidate_folio(), on behalf of the
filesystem, must then determine how to trim the streaming write record. In
a couple of cases, however, it does this incorrectly (the reduce-length and
move-start cases are switched over and don't, in any case, calculate the
value correctly).
Fix this by making the logic tree more obvious and fixing the cases.

If a program is watching a file on a 9p mount, it won't see any change in
size if the file being exported by the server is changed directly in the
source filesystem, presumably because 9p doesn't have change notifications,
and because netfs skips the reads if the file is empty.
Fix this by attempting to read the full size specified when a DIO read is
requested (such as when 9p is operating in unbuffered mode) and dealing
with a short read if the EOF was less than the expected read.
To make this work, filesystems using netfslib must not set
NETFS_SREQ_CLEAR_TAIL if performing a DIO read where that read hit the EOF.
I don't want to mandatorily clear this flag in netfslib for DIO because,
say, ceph might make a read from an object that is not completely filled,
but does not reside at the end of file - and so we need to clear the
excess.
This can be tested by watching an empty file over 9p within a VM (such as
in the ktest framework):
while true; do read content; if [ -n "$content" ]; then echo $content; break; fi; done < /host/tmp/foo
then writing something into the empty file. The watcher should immediately
display the file content and break out of the loop. Without this fix, it
remains in the loop indefinitely.

The NETFS_RREQ_USE_PGPRIV2 and NETFS_RREQ_WRITE_TO_CACHE flags aren't used
correctly. The problem is that we try to set them up in the request
initialisation, but we the cache may be in the process of setting up still,
and so the state may not be correct. Further, we secondarily sample the
cache state and make contradictory decisions later.
The issue arises because we set up the cache resources, which allows the
cache's ->prepare_read() to switch on NETFS_SREQ_COPY_TO_CACHE - which
triggers cache writing even if we didn't set the flags when allocating.
Fix this in the following way:
(1) Drop NETFS_ICTX_USE_PGPRIV2 and instead set NETFS_RREQ_USE_PGPRIV2 in
->init_request() rather than trying to juggle that in
netfs_alloc_request().
(2) Repurpose NETFS_RREQ_USE_PGPRIV2 to merely indicate that if caching is
to be done, then PG_private_2 is to be used rather than only setting
it if we decide to cache and then having netfs_rreq_unlock_folios()
set the non-PG_private_2 writeback-to-cache if it wasn't set.
(3) Split netfs_rreq_unlock_folios() into two functions, one of which
contains the deprecated code for using PG_private_2 to avoid
accidentally doing the writeback path - and always use it if
USE_PGPRIV2 is set.
(4) As NETFS_ICTX_USE_PGPRIV2 is removed, make netfs_write_begin() always
wait for PG_private_2. This function is deprecated and only used by
ceph anyway, and so label it so.
(5) Drop the NETFS_RREQ_WRITE_TO_CACHE flag and use
fscache_operation_valid() on the cache_resources instead. This has
the advantage of picking up the result of netfs_begin_cache_read() and
fscache_begin_write_operation() - which are called after the object is
initialised and will wait for the cache to come to a usable state.
Just reverting ae678317b95e[1] isn't a sufficient fix, so this need to be
applied on top of that. Without this as well, things like:
rcu: INFO: rcu_sched detected expedited stalls on CPUs/tasks: {
and:
WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 3621 at fs/ceph/caps.c:3386
may happen, along with some UAFs due to PG_private_2 not getting used to
wait on writeback completion.

Commit 6b8e61472529 ("netfs: Rename CONFIG_FSCACHE_DEBUG to
CONFIG_NETFS_DEBUG") renames the config, but introduces two issues: First,
NETFS_DEBUG mistakenly depends on the non-existing config NETFS, whereas
the actual intended config is called NETFS_SUPPORT. Second, the config
renaming misses to adjust the documentation of the functionality of this
config.
Clean up those two points.

This happened because fscache_cookie_state_machine() was slow and was
still running while another process invoked fscache_unuse_cookie();
this led to a fscache_cookie_lru_do_one() call, setting the
FSCACHE_COOKIE_DO_LRU_DISCARD flag, which was picked up by
fscache_cookie_state_machine(), withdrawing the cookie via
cachefiles_withdraw_cookie(), clearing cookie->cache_priv.
At the same time, yet another process invoked
cachefiles_prepare_write(), which found a NULL pointer in this code
line:
struct cachefiles_object *object = cachefiles_cres_object(cres);
The next line crashes, obviously:
struct cachefiles_cache *cache = object->volume->cache;
During cachefiles_prepare_write(), the "n_accesses" counter is
non-zero (via fscache_begin_operation()). The cookie must not be
withdrawn until it drops to zero.
The counter is checked by fscache_cookie_state_machine() before
switching to FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_RELINQUISHING and
FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_WITHDRAWING (in "case
FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_FAILED"), but not for
FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_LRU_DISCARDING ("case
FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_ACTIVE").
This patch adds the missing check. With a non-zero access counter,
the function returns and the next fscache_end_cookie_access() call
will queue another fscache_cookie_state_machine() call to handle the
still-pending FSCACHE_COOKIE_DO_LRU_DISCARD.

When netfslib is performing writeback (ie. ->writepages), it maintains two
parallel streams of writes, one to the server and one to the cache, but it
doesn't mark either stream of writes as active until it gets some data that
needs to be written to that stream.
This is done because some folios will only be written to the cache
(e.g. copying to the cache on read is done by marking the folios and
letting writeback do the actual work) and sometimes we'll only be writing
to the server (e.g. if there's no cache).
Now, since we don't actually dispatch uploads and cache writes in parallel,
but rather flip between the streams, depending on which has the lowest
so-far-issued offset, and don't wait for the subreqs to finish before
flipping, we can end up in a situation where, say, we issue a write to the
server and this completes before we start the write to the cache.
But because we only activate a stream when we first add a subreq to it, the
result collection code may run before we manage to activate the stream -
resulting in the folio being cleaned and having the writeback-in-progress
mark removed. At this point, the folio no longer belongs to us.
This is only really a problem for folios that need to be written to both
streams - and in that case, the upload to the server is started first,
followed by the write to the cache - and the cache write may see a bad
folio.
Fix this by activating the cache stream up front if there's a cache
available. If there's a cache, then all data is going to be written to it.
