Even with inplace decompression, sometimes very few temporary buffers
may be still needed for a single decompression shot (e.g. 16 pages for
64k sliding window or 4 pages for 16k sliding window). In low-memory
scenarios, it would be better to try to allocate with GFP_NOWAIT on
readahead first. That can help reduce the time spent on page allocation
under durative memory pressure.
Here are detailed performance numbers under multi-app launch benchmark
workload [1] on ARM64 Android devices (8-core CPU and 8GB of memory)
running a 5.15 LTS kernel with EROFS of 4k pclusters:
+----------------------------------------------+
| LZ4 | vanilla | patched | diff |
|----------------+---------+---------+---------|
| Average (ms) | 3364 | 2684 | -20.21% | [64k sliding window]
|----------------+---------+---------+---------|
| Average (ms) | 2079 | 1610 | -22.56% | [16k sliding window]
+----------------------------------------------+
The total size of system images for 4k pclusters is almost unchanged:
(64k sliding window) 9,117,044 KB
(16k sliding window) 9,113,096 KB
Therefore, in addition to switch the sliding window from 64k to 16k,
after applying this patch, it can eventually save 52.14% (3364 -> 1610)
on average with no memory reservation. That is particularly useful for
embedded devices with limited resources.

I encountered a race issue after lengthy (~594647 secs) stress tests on
a 64k-page arm64 VM with several 4k-block EROFS images. The timing
is like below:
z_erofs_try_inplace_io z_erofs_fill_bio_vec
cmpxchg(&compressed_bvecs[].page,
NULL, ..)
[access bufvec]
compressed_bvecs[] = *bvec;
Previously, z_erofs_submit_queue() just accessed bufvec->page only, so
other fields in bufvec didn't matter. After the subpage block support
is landed, .offset and .end can be used too, but filling bufvec isn't
an atomic operation which can cause inconsistency.
Let's use a spinlock to keep the atomicity of each bufvec. More
specifically, just reuse the existing spinlock `pcl->obj.lockref.lock`
since it's rarely used (also it takes a short time if even used) as long
as the pcluster has a reference.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.8.netfs' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This extends the netfs helper library that network filesystems can use
to replace their own implementations. Both afs and 9p are ported. cifs
is ready as well but the patches are way bigger and will be routed
separately once this is merged. That will remove lots of code as well.
The overal goal is to get high-level I/O and knowledge of the page
cache and ouf of the filesystem drivers. This includes knowledge about
the existence of pages and folios
The pull request converts afs and 9p. This removes about 800 lines of
code from afs and 300 from 9p. For 9p it is now possible to do writes
in larger than a page chunks. Additionally, multipage folio support
can be turned on for 9p. Separate patches exist for cifs removing
another 2000+ lines. I've included detailed information in the
individual pulls I took.
Summary:
- Add NFS-style (and Ceph-style) locking around DIO vs buffered I/O
calls to prevent these from happening at the same time.
- Support for direct and unbuffered I/O.
- Support for write-through caching in the page cache.
- O_*SYNC and RWF_*SYNC writes use write-through rather than writing
to the page cache and then flushing afterwards.
- Support for write-streaming.
- Support for write grouping.
- Skip reads for which the server could only return zeros or EOF.
- The fscache module is now part of the netfs library and the
corresponding maintainer entry is updated.
- Some helpers from the fscache subsystem are renamed to mark them as
belonging to the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the 9p conversion"

erofs: fix inconsistent per-file compression format
EROFS can select compression algorithms on a per-file basis, and each
per-file compression algorithm needs to be marked in the on-disk
superblock for initialization.
However, syzkaller can generate inconsistent crafted images that use
an unsupported algorithmtype for specific inodes, e.g. use MicroLZMA
algorithmtype even it's not set in `sbi->available_compr_algs`. This
can lead to an unexpected "BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference" if
the corresponding decompressor isn't built-in.
Fix this by checking against `sbi->available_compr_algs` for each
m_algorithmformat request. Incorrect !erofs_sb_has_compr_cfgs preset
bitmap is now fixed together since it was harmless previously.

Sub-page block support is still unusable even with previous commits if

fragment feature is enabled.
This commit tries to handle "the head part" of interlaced PLAIN
pclusters first: it was once explained in commit fdffc091e6 ("erofs:

It uses a unique way for both shifted and interlaced PLAIN pclusters.

Previously, the block size always equaled to PAGE_SIZE, therefore
`lclusterbits` couldn't be less than 12.
Since sub-page compressed blocks are now considered, `lobits` for
a lcluster in each pack cannot always be `lclusterbits` as before.
Otherwise, there is no enough room for the special value
`Z_EROFS_LI_D0_CBLKCNT`.
To support smaller block sizes, `lobits` for each compacted lcluster is
now calculated as:
lobits = max(lclusterbits, ilog2(Z_EROFS_LI_D0_CBLKCNT) + 1)

- In-place I/O pages can be used partially, but compressed pages need

Currently EROFS can map another compressed buffer for inplace
decompression, that was used to handle the cases that some pages of
compressed data are actually not in-place I/O.
However, like most simple LZ77 algorithms, LZ4 expects the compressed
data is arranged at the end of the decompressed buffer and it
explicitly uses memmove() to handle overlapping:
__________________________________________________________
|_ direction of decompression --> ____ |_ compressed data _|
Although EROFS arranges compressed data like this, it typically maps two
individual virtual buffers so the relative order is uncertain.
Previously, it was hardly observed since LZ4 only uses memmove() for
short overlapped literals and x86/arm64 memmove implementations seem to
completely cover it up and they don't have this issue. Juhyung reported
that EROFS data corruption can be found on a new Intel x86 processor.
After some analysis, it seems that recent x86 processors with the new
FSRM feature expose this issue with "rep movsb".
Let's strictly use the decompressed buffer for lz4 inplace
decompression for now. Later, as an useful improvement, we could try
to tie up these two buffers together in the correct order.

Pull vfs fanotify fsid updates from Christian Brauner:
"This work is part of the plan to enable fanotify to serve as a drop-in
replacement for inotify. While inotify is availabe on all filesystems,
fanotify currently isn't.
In order to support fanotify on all filesystems two things are needed:
(1) all filesystems need to support AT_HANDLE_FID
(2) all filesystems need to report a non-zero f_fsid
This contains (1) and allows filesystems to encode non-decodable file
handlers for fanotify without implementing any exportfs operations by
encoding a file id of type FILEID_INO64_GEN from i_ino and
i_generation.
Filesystems that want to opt out of encoding non-decodable file ids
for fanotify that don't support NFS export can do so by providing an
empty export_operations struct.
This also partially addresses (2) by generating f_fsid for simple
filesystems as well as freevxfs. Remaining filesystems will be dealt
with by separate patches.
Finally, this contains the patch from the current exportfs maintainers
which moves exportfs under vfs with Chuck, Jeff, and Amir as

As Linus pointed out [1], lockref_put_return() is fundamentally
designed to be something that can fail. It behaves as a fastpath-only
thing, and the failure case needs to be handled anyway.
Actually, since the new pcluster was just allocated without being
populated, it won't be accessed by others until it is inserted into
XArray, so lockref helpers are actually unneeded here.
Let's just set the proper reference count on initializing.

Rename the default helper for encoding FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles to
generic_encode_ino32_fh() and convert the filesystems that used the
default implementation to use the generic helper explicitly.
After this change, exportfs_encode_inode_fh() no longer has a default
implementation to encode FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles.
This is a step towards allowing filesystems to encode non-decodeable
file handles for fanotify without having to implement any
export_operations.

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.ctime' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs,
xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant
filesystems.
The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime
and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems
to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per
jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via
NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes
can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the
client decide to invalidate the cache.
Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support
a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp
granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps
(e.g., backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve
the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying
filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates.
This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are
actively queried.
This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that
something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag
is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a
fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one.
As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime
must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so
only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used.
Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in
the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use
coarse-grained timestamps.
Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included:
- Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime
together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all
maintainers provided necessary Acks.
- Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all
callers to rely on them. Plain accesses to inode->i_ctime are now
gone and it is accordingly rename to inode->__i_ctime and commented
as requiring accessors.
- Extend generic_fillattr() to pass in a request mask mirroring in a
sense the statx() uapi. This allows callers to pass in a request
mask to only get a subset of attributes filled in.
- Rework timestamp updates so it's possible to drop the @now
parameter the update_time() inode operation and associated helpers.
- Add inode_update_timestamps() and convert all filesystems to it
removing a bunch of open-coding"

Remove the unnecessary encoding of page order into an enum and pass the
page order directly. That lets us get rid of pe_order().
The switch constructs have to be changed to if/else constructs to prevent
GCC from warning on builds with 3-level page tables where PMD_ORDER and
PUD_ORDER have the same value.

look at the previous commit as well and audit your driver to be sure it

Currently ztailpacking pclusters are chained with FOLLOWED_NOINPLACE and
not recorded into the managed_pslots XArray.
After commit 7674a42f35 ("erofs: use struct lockref to replace
handcrafted approach"), ztailpacking pclusters won't be freed with
erofs_workgroup_put() anymore, which will cause the following issue:
BUG erofs_pcluster-1 (Tainted: G OE ): Objects remaining in erofs_pcluster-1 on __kmem_cache_shutdown()
Use z_erofs_free_pcluster() directly to free ztailpacking pclusters.

It's a straight-forward conversion except that readahead_folio()
will do folio_put() in advance but it doesn't matter since folios
are still locked.
As before, since file-backed folios (pages for now) are locked, so
we could temporarily use folio->private as an internal counter to
indicate split parts of each folio for the corresponding pclusters
to decompress.
When such counter becomes zero, the folio will be finally unlocked
(see compress.h and z_erofs_onlinepage_endio()).
