David Howells 9f08ebc343 fscache, cachefiles: Display stat of culling events
Add a stat counter of culling events whereby the cache backend culls a file
to make space (when asked by cachefilesd in this case) and display in
/proc/fs/fscache/stats.

David Howells 16a96bdf92 fscache: Provide a function to resize a cookie
Provide a function to change the size of the storage attached to a cookie,
to match the size of the file being cached when it's changed by truncate or
fallocate:

	void fscache_resize_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,

This acts synchronously and is expected to run under the inode lock of the
caller.

David Howells cdf262f294 fscache: Count data storage objects in a cache
Count the data storage objects that are currently allocated in a cache.
This is used to pin certain cache structures until cache withdrawal is
complete.

Three helpers are provided to manage and make use of the count:

 (1) void fscache_count_object(struct fscache_cache *cache);

     This should be called by the cache backend to note that an object has
     been allocated and attached to the cache.

 (2) void fscache_uncount_object(struct fscache_cache *cache);

     This should be called by the backend to note that an object has been
     destroyed.  This sends a wakeup event that allows cache withdrawal to
     proceed if it was waiting for that object.

 (3) void fscache_wait_for_objects(struct fscache_cache *cache);

     This can be used by the backend to wait for all outstanding cache
     object to be destroyed.

Each cache's counter is displayed as part of /proc/fs/fscache/caches.

David Howells d64f4554dd fscache: Provide a means to begin an operation
Provide a function to begin a read operation:

	int fscache_begin_read_operation(
		struct netfs_cache_resources *cres,
		struct fscache_cookie *cookie)

This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of
netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly.
It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the
supplied cookie.

This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the
operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform
synchronisation on the operation.  cres->inval_counter is set from the
cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the
operation.

Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and
able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in
progress in the background.  The operations intended to be called by the
network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for
the cookie to move to the correct state.

This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state
to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that
I/O can resume.


Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object
to get to a state where it can be used for certain things:

	bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres,
					enum fscache_want_stage stage);

This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits
for them to get to an appropriate stage.  There's a choice of wanting just
some parameters (FSCACHE_WANT_PARAM) or the ability to do I/O
(FSCACHE_WANT_READ or FSCACHE_WANT_WRITE).

David Howells d24af13e2e fscache: Implement cookie invalidation
Add a function to invalidate the cache behind a cookie:

	void fscache_invalidate(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
				const void *aux_data,
				loff_t size,
				unsigned int flags)

This causes any cached data for the specified cookie to be discarded.  If
the cookie is marked as being in use, a new cache object will be created if
possible and future I/O will use that instead.  In-flight I/O should be
abandoned (writes) or reconsidered (reads).  Each time it is called
cookie->inval_counter is incremented and this can be used to detect
invalidation at the end of an I/O operation.

The coherency data attached to the cookie can be updated and the cookie
size should be reset.  One flag is available, FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE,
which should be used to indicate invalidation due to a DIO write on a
file.  This will temporarily disable caching for this cookie.

David Howells 5d00e426f9 fscache: Implement simple cookie state machine
Implement a very simple cookie state machine to handle lookup,
invalidation, withdrawal, relinquishment and, to be added later, commit on
LRU discard.

Three cache methods are provided: ->lookup_cookie() to look up and, if
necessary, create a data storage object; ->withdraw_cookie() to free the
resources associated with that object and potentially delete it; and
->prepare_to_write(), to do prepare for changes to the cached data to be
modified locally.

Changes
=======
ver #3:
 - Fix a race between LRU discard and relinquishment whereby the former
   would override the latter and thus the latter would never happen[1].

ver #2:
 - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but
   rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when
   n_accesses reaches 0.

David Howells a7733fb632 fscache: Implement cookie-level access helpers
Add a number of helper functions to manage access to a cookie, pinning the
cache object in place for the duration to prevent cache withdrawal from
removing it:

 (1) void fscache_init_access_gate(struct fscache_cookie *cookie);

     This function initialises the access count when a cache binds to a
     cookie.  An extra ref is taken on the access count to prevent wakeups
     while the cache is active.  We're only interested in the wakeup when a
     cookie is being withdrawn and we're waiting for it to quiesce - at
     which point the counter will be decremented before the wait.

     The FSCACHE_COOKIE_NACC_ELEVATED flag is set on the cookie to keep
     track of the extra ref in order to handle a race between
     relinquishment and withdrawal both trying to drop the extra ref.

 (2) bool fscache_begin_cookie_access(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
				      enum fscache_access_trace why);

     This function attempts to begin access upon a cookie, pinning it in
     place if it's cached.  If successful, it returns true and leaves a the
     access count incremented.

 (3) void fscache_end_cookie_access(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
				    enum fscache_access_trace why);

     This function drops the access count obtained by (2), permitting
     object withdrawal to take place when it reaches zero.

A tracepoint is provided to track changes to the access counter on a
cookie.

The way the access gate on the volume works/will work is:

  (1) If the cache tests as not live (state is not FSCACHE_CACHE_IS_ACTIVE),
      then we return false to indicate access was not permitted.

  (2) If the cache tests as live, then we increment the volume's n_accesses
      count and then recheck the cache liveness, ending the access if it
      ceased to be live.

  (3) When we end the access, we decrement the volume's n_accesses and wake
      up the any waiters if it reaches 0.

  (4) Whilst the cache is caching, the volume's n_accesses is kept
      artificially incremented to prevent wakeups from happening.

  (5) When the cache is taken offline, the state is changed to prevent new
      accesses, the volume's n_accesses is decremented and we wait for it to
      become 0.

David Howells 7f3283aba3 fscache: Implement cookie registration
Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired
and relinquished by the network filesystem.  It is intended that the
filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume.

To request a cookie, the filesystem should call:

	struct fscache_cookie *
	fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume,
			       u8 advice,
			       const void *index_key,
			       size_t index_key_len,
			       const void *aux_data,
			       size_t aux_data_len,
			       loff_t object_size)


The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in
here.  If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL
cookie.

A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len.
This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in
the cache.

A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and
initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data.  This is used to
validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them
when they're committed.  The data is stored in the cookie and will be
updateable by various functions in later patches.

The object_size must also be given.  This is also used to perform a
coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately.

This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel,
though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy
relinquishing its cookie.


When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call:

	void
	fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume,
				  bool retire)

If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately.

Changes
=======
ver #3:
 - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes.  Use __le32 as the unit
   to round up to.
 - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather
   than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1].
 - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of
   freeing.

ver #2:
 - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but
   rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when
   n_accesses reaches 0.
 - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire
   tracepoint.

David Howells 9549332df4 fscache: Implement cache registration
Implement a register of caches and provide functions to manage it.

Two functions are provided for the cache backend to use:

 (1) Acquire a cache cookie:

	struct fscache_cache *fscache_acquire_cache(const char *name)

     This gets the cache cookie for a cache of the specified name and moves
     it to the preparation state.  If a nameless cache cookie exists, that
     will be given this name and used.

 (2) Relinquish a cache cookie:

	void fscache_relinquish_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache);

     This relinquishes a cache cookie, cleans it and makes it available if
     it's still referenced by a network filesystem.

Note that network filesystems don't deal with cache cookies directly, but
rather go straight to the volume registration.

David Howells 26aaeffcaf fscache, cachefiles: Add alternate API to use kiocb for read/write to cache
Add an alternate API by which the cache can be accessed through a kiocb,
doing async DIO, rather than using the current API that tells the cache
where all the pages are.

The new API is intended to be used in conjunction with the netfs helper
library.  A filesystem must pick one or the other and not mix them.

Filesystems wanting to use the new API must #define FSCACHE_USE_NEW_IO_API
before #including the header.  This prevents them from continuing to use
the old API at the same time as there are incompatibilities in how the
PG_fscache page bit is used.

Changes:
v6:
 - Provide a routine to shape a write so that the start and length can be
   aligned for DIO[3].

v4:
 - Use the vfs_iocb_iter_read/write() helpers[1]
 - Move initial definition of fscache_begin_read_operation() here.
 - Remove a commented-out line[2]

 - Remove extern on func decl[2].
 - Put in param names on func decl[2].
 - Remove redundant else[2].
 - Fill out the kdoc comment for fscache_begin_read_operation().

kiran.modukuri 3f2b7b9035 fscache: Fix race in fscache_op_complete() due to split atomic_sub & read
The code in fscache_retrieval_complete is using atomic_sub followed by an
atomic_read:

        atomic_sub(n_pages, &op->n_pages);
        if (atomic_read(&op->n_pages) <= 0)
                fscache_op_complete(&op->op, true);

This causes two threads doing a decrement of n_pages to race with each
other seeing the op->refcount 0 at same time - and they end up calling
fscache_op_complete() in both the threads leading to an assertion failure.

Fix this by using atomic_sub_return_relaxed() instead of two calls.  Note
that I'm using 'relaxed' rather than, say, 'release' as there aren't
multiple variables that appear to need ordering across the release.

The oops looks something like:

David Howells e26bfebdfc fscache: Fix dead object requeue
Under some circumstances, an fscache object can become queued such that it
fscache_object_work_func() can be called once the object is in the
OBJECT_DEAD state.  This results in the kernel oopsing when it tries to
invoke the handler for the state (which is hard coded to 0x2).

The way this comes about is something like the following:

 (1) The object dispatcher is processing a work state for an object.  This
     is done in workqueue context.

 (2) An out-of-band event comes in that isn't masked, causing the object to
     be queued, say EV_KILL.

 (3) The object dispatcher finishes processing the current work state on
     that object and then sees there's another event to process, so,
     without returning to the workqueue core, it processes that event too.
     It then follows the chain of events that initiates until we reach
     OBJECT_DEAD without going through a wait state (such as
     WAIT_FOR_CLEARANCE).

     At this point, object->events may be 0, object->event_mask will be 0
     and oob_event_mask will be 0.

 (4) The object dispatcher returns to the workqueue processor, and in due
     course, this sees that the object's work item is still queued and
     invokes it again.

 (5) The current state is a work state (OBJECT_DEAD), so the dispatcher
     jumps to it - resulting in an OOPS.

When I'm seeing this, the work state in (1) appears to have been either
LOOK_UP_OBJECT or CREATE_OBJECT (object->oob_table is
fscache_osm_lookup_oob).

The window for (2) is very small:

 (A) object->event_mask is cleared whilst the event dispatch process is
     underway - though there's no memory barrier to force this to the top
     of the function.

     The window, therefore is from the time the object was selected by the
     workqueue processor and made requeueable to the time the mask was
     cleared.

 (B) fscache_raise_event() will only queue the object if it manages to set
     the event bit and the corresponding event_mask bit was set.

     The enqueuement is then deferred slightly whilst we get a ref on the
     object and get the per-CPU variable for workqueue congestion.  This
     slight deferral slightly increases the probability by allowing extra
     time for the workqueue to make the item requeueable.

Handle this by giving the dead state a processor function and checking the
for the dead state address rather than seeing if the processor function is
address 0x2.  The dead state processor function can then set a flag to
indicate that it's occurred and give a warning if it occurs more than once
per object.

If this race occurs, an oops similar to the following is seen (note the RIP
value):

David Howells 4a47132ff4 FS-Cache: Retain the netfs context in the retrieval op earlier
Now that the retrieval operation may be disposed of by fscache_put_operation()
before we actually set the context, the retrieval-specific cleanup operation
can produce a NULL-pointer dereference when it tries to unconditionally clean
up the netfs context.

Given that it is expected that we'll get at least as far as the place where we
currently set the context pointer and it is unlikely we'll go through the
error handling paths prior to that point, retain the context right from the
point that the retrieval op is allocated.

Concomitant to this, we need to retain the cookie pointer in the retrieval op
also so that we can call the netfs to release its context in the release
method.

In addition, we might now get into fscache_release_retrieval_op() with the op
only initialised.  To this end, set the operation to DEAD only after the
release method has been called and skip the n_pages test upon cleanup if the
op is still in the INITIALISED state.

Without these changes, the following oops might be seen:

David Howells d3b97ca4a9 FS-Cache: The operation cancellation method needs calling in more places
Any time an incomplete operation is cancelled, the operation cancellation
function needs to be called to clean up.  This is currently being passed
directly to some of the functions that might want to call it, but not all.

Instead, pass the cancellation method pointer to the fscache_operation_init()
and have that cache it in the operation struct.  Further, plug in a dummy
cancellation handler if the caller declines to set one as this allows us to
call the function unconditionally (the extra overhead isn't worth bothering
about as we don't expect to be calling this typically).

The cancellation method must thence be called everywhere the CANCELLED state
is set.  Note that we call it *before* setting the CANCELLED state such that
the method can use the old state value to guide its operation.

fscache_do_cancel_retrieval() needs moving higher up in the sources so that
the init function can use it now.

Without this, the following oops may be seen:

David Howells 94d30ae90a FS-Cache: Provide the ability to enable/disable cookies
Provide the ability to enable and disable fscache cookies.  A disabled cookie
will reject or ignore further requests to:

	Acquire a child cookie
	Invalidate and update backing objects
	Check the consistency of a backing object
	Allocate storage for backing page
	Read backing pages
	Write to backing pages

but still allows:

	Checks/waits on the completion of already in-progress objects
	Uncaching of pages
	Relinquishment of cookies

Two new operations are provided:

 (1) Disable a cookie:

	void fscache_disable_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
				    bool invalidate);

     If the cookie is not already disabled, this locks the cookie against other
     dis/enablement ops, marks the cookie as being disabled, discards or
     invalidates any backing objects and waits for cessation of activity on any
     associated object.

     This is a wrapper around a chunk split out of fscache_relinquish_cookie(),
     but it reinitialises the cookie such that it can be reenabled.

     All possible failures are handled internally.  The caller should consider
     calling fscache_uncache_all_inode_pages() afterwards to make sure all page
     markings are cleared up.

 (2) Enable a cookie:

	void fscache_enable_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
				   bool (*can_enable)(void *data),
				   void *data)

     If the cookie is not already enabled, this locks the cookie against other
     dis/enablement ops, invokes can_enable() and, if the cookie is not an
     index cookie, will begin the procedure of acquiring backing objects.

     The optional can_enable() function is passed the data argument and returns
     a ruling as to whether or not enablement should actually be permitted to
     begin.

     All possible failures are handled internally.  The cookie will only be
     marked as enabled if provisional backing objects are allocated.

A later patch will introduce these to NFS.  Cookie enablement during nfs_open()
is then contingent on i_writecount <= 0.  can_enable() checks for a race
between open(O_RDONLY) and open(O_WRONLY/O_RDWR).  This simplifies NFS's cookie
handling and allows us to get rid of open(O_RDONLY) accidentally introducing
caching to an inode that's open for writing already.

One operation has its API modified:

 (3) Acquire a cookie.

	struct fscache_cookie *fscache_acquire_cookie(
		struct fscache_cookie *parent,
		const struct fscache_cookie_def *def,
		void *netfs_data,
		bool enable);

     This now has an additional argument that indicates whether the requested
     cookie should be enabled by default.  It doesn't need the can_enable()
     function because the caller must prevent multiple calls for the same netfs
     object and it doesn't need to take the enablement lock because no one else
     can get at the cookie before this returns.

David Howells 8fb883f3e3 FS-Cache: Add use/unuse/wake cookie wrappers
Add wrapper functions for dealing with cookie->n_active:

 (*) __fscache_use_cookie() to increment it.

 (*) __fscache_unuse_cookie() to decrement and test against zero.

 (*) __fscache_wake_unused_cookie() to wake up anyone waiting for it to reach
     zero.

The second and third are split so that the third can be done after cookie->lock
has been released in case the waiter wakes up whilst we're still holding it and
tries to get it.

We will need to wake-on-zero once the cookie disablement patch is applied
because it will then be possible to see n_active become zero without the cookie
being relinquished.

Also move the cookie usement out of fscache_attr_changed_op() and into
fscache_attr_changed() and the operation struct so that cookie disablement
will be able to track it.

Whilst we're at it, only increment n_active if we're about to do
fscache_submit_op() so that we don't have to deal with undoing it if anything
earlier fails.  Possibly this should be moved into fscache_submit_op() which
could look at FSCACHE_OP_UNUSE_COOKIE.

David Howells da9803bc88 FS-Cache: Add interface to check consistency of a cached object
Extend the fscache netfs API so that the netfs can ask as to whether a cache
object is up to date with respect to its corresponding netfs object:

	int fscache_check_consistency(struct fscache_cookie *cookie)

This will call back to the netfs to check whether the auxiliary data associated
with a cookie is correct.  It returns 0 if it is and -ESTALE if it isn't; it
may also return -ENOMEM and -ERESTARTSYS.

The backends now have to implement a mandatory operation pointer:

	int (*check_consistency)(struct fscache_object *object)

that corresponds to the above API call.  FS-Cache takes care of pinning the
object and the cookie in memory and managing this call with respect to the
object state.

David Howells 1bb4b7f98f FS-Cache: The retrieval remaining-pages counter needs to be atomic_t
struct fscache_retrieval contains a count of the number of pages that still
need some processing (n_pages).  This is decremented as the pages are
processed.

However, this needs to be atomic as fscache_retrieval_complete() (I think) just
occasionally may be called from cachefiles_read_backing_file() and
cachefiles_read_copier() simultaneously.

This happens when an fscache_read_or_alloc_pages() request containing a lot of
pages (say a couple of hundred) is being processed.  The read on each backing
page is dispatched individually because we need to insert a monitor into the
waitqueue to catch when the read completes.  However, under low-memory
conditions, we might be forced to wait in the allocator - and this gives the
I/O on the backing page a chance to complete first.

When the I/O completes, fscache_enqueue_retrieval() chucks the retrieval onto
the workqueue without waiting for the operation to finish the initial I/O
dispatch (we want to release any pages we can as soon as we can), thus both can
end up running simultaneously and potentially attempting to partially complete
the retrieval simultaneously (ENOMEM may occur, backing pages may already be in
the page cache).

This was demonstrated by parallelling the non-atomic counter with an atomic
counter and printing both of them when the assertion fails.  At this point, the
atomic counter has reached zero, but the non-atomic counter has not.

To fix this, make the counter an atomic_t.

This results in the following bug appearing

	FS-Cache: Assertion failed
	3 == 5 is false
	------------[ cut here ]------------
	kernel BUG at fs/fscache/operation.c:421!

David Howells 1362729b16 FS-Cache: Simplify cookie retention for fscache_objects, fixing oops
Simplify the way fscache cache objects retain their cookie.  The way I
implemented the cookie storage handling made synchronisation a pain (ie. the
object state machine can't rely on the cookie actually still being there).

Instead of the the object being detached from the cookie and the cookie being
freed in __fscache_relinquish_cookie(), we defer both operations:

 (*) The detachment of the object from the list in the cookie now takes place
     in fscache_drop_object() and is thus governed by the object state machine
     (fscache_detach_from_cookie() has been removed).

 (*) The release of the cookie is now in fscache_object_destroy() - which is
     called by the cache backend just before it frees the object.

This means that the fscache_cookie struct is now available to the cache all the
way through from ->alloc_object() to ->drop_object() and ->put_object() -
meaning that it's no longer necessary to take object->lock to guarantee access.

However, __fscache_relinquish_cookie() doesn't wait for the object to go all
the way through to destruction before letting the netfs proceed.  That would
massively slow down the netfs.  Since __fscache_relinquish_cookie() leaves the
cookie around, in must therefore break all attachments to the netfs - which
includes ->def, ->netfs_data and any outstanding page read/writes.

To handle this, struct fscache_cookie now has an n_active counter:

 (1) This starts off initialised to 1.

 (2) Any time the cache needs to get at the netfs data, it calls
     fscache_use_cookie() to increment it - if it is not zero.  If it was zero,
     then access is not permitted.

 (3) When the cache has finished with the data, it calls fscache_unuse_cookie()
     to decrement it.  This does a wake-up on it if it reaches 0.

 (4) __fscache_relinquish_cookie() decrements n_active and then waits for it to
     reach 0.  The initialisation to 1 in step (1) ensures that we only get
     wake ups when we're trying to get rid of the cookie.

This leaves __fscache_relinquish_cookie() a lot simpler.


***
This fixes a problem in the current code whereby if fscache_invalidate() is
followed sufficiently quickly by fscache_relinquish_cookie() then it is
possible for __fscache_relinquish_cookie() to have detached the cookie from the
object and cleared the pointer before a thread is dispatched to process the
invalidation state in the object state machine.

Since the pending write clearance was deferred to the invalidation state to
make it asynchronous, we need to either wait in relinquishment for the stores
tree to be cleared in the invalidation state or we need to handle the clearance
in relinquishment.

Further, if the relinquishment code does clear the tree, then the invalidation
state need to make the clearance contingent on still having the cookie to hand
(since that's where the tree is rooted) and we have to prevent the cookie from
disappearing for the duration.

This can lead to an oops like the following:

David Howells caaef6900b FS-Cache: Fix object state machine to have separate work and wait states
Fix object state machine to have separate work and wait states as that makes
it easier to envision.

There are now three kinds of state:

 (1) Work state.  This is an execution state.  No event processing is performed
     by a work state.  The function attached to a work state returns a pointer
     indicating the next state to which the OSM should transition.  Returning
     NO_TRANSIT repeats the current state, but goes back to the scheduler
     first.

 (2) Wait state.  This is an event processing state.  No execution is
     performed by a wait state.  Wait states are just tables of "if event X
     occurs, clear it and transition to state Y".  The dispatcher returns to
     the scheduler if none of the events in which the wait state has an
     interest are currently pending.

 (3) Out-of-band state.  This is a special work state.  Transitions to normal
     states can be overridden when an unexpected event occurs (eg. I/O error).
     Instead the dispatcher disables and clears the OOB event and transits to
     the specified work state.  This then acts as an ordinary work state,
     though object->state points to the overridden destination.  Returning
     NO_TRANSIT resumes the overridden transition.

In addition, the states have names in their definitions, so there's no need for
tables of state names.  Further, the EV_REQUEUE event is no longer necessary as
that is automatic for work states.

Since the states are now separate structs rather than values in an enum, it's
not possible to use comparisons other than (non-)equality between them, so use
some object->flags to indicate what phase an object is in.

The EV_RELEASE, EV_RETIRE and EV_WITHDRAW events have been squished into one
(EV_KILL).  An object flag now carries the information about retirement.

Similarly, the RELEASING, RECYCLING and WITHDRAWING states have been merged
into an KILL_OBJECT state and additional states have been added for handling
waiting dependent objects (JUMPSTART_DEPS and KILL_DEPENDENTS).

A state has also been added for synchronising with parent object initialisation

David Howells 493f7bc114 FS-Cache: Wrap checks on object state
Wrap checks on object state (mostly outside of fs/fscache/object.c) with
inline functions so that the mechanism can be replaced.

Some of the state checks within object.c are left as-is as they will be
replaced.

David Howells ef778e7ae6 FS-Cache: Provide proper invalidation
Provide a proper invalidation method rather than relying on the netfs retiring
the cookie it has and getting a new one.  The problem with this is that isn't
easy for the netfs to make sure that it has completed/cancelled all its
outstanding storage and retrieval operations on the cookie it is retiring.

Instead, have the cache provide an invalidation method that will cancel or wait
for all currently outstanding operations before invalidating the cache, and
will cause new operations to queue up behind that.  Whilst invalidation is in
progress, some requests will be rejected until the cache can stack a barrier on
the operation queue to cause new operations to be deferred behind it.

David Howells 9f10523f89 FS-Cache: Fix operation state management and accounting
Fix the state management of internal fscache operations and the accounting of
what operations are in what states.

This is done by:

 (1) Give struct fscache_operation a enum variable that directly represents the
     state it's currently in, rather than spreading this knowledge over a bunch
     of flags, who's processing the operation at the moment and whether it is
     queued or not.

     This makes it easier to write assertions to check the state at various
     points and to prevent invalid state transitions.

 (2) Add an 'operation complete' state and supply a function to indicate the
     completion of an operation (fscache_op_complete()) and make things call
     it.  The final call to fscache_put_operation() can then check that an op
     in the appropriate state (complete or cancelled).

 (3) Adjust the use of object->n_ops, ->n_in_progress, ->n_exclusive to better
     govern the state of an object:

	(a) The ->n_ops is now the number of extant operations on the object
	    and is now decremented by fscache_put_operation() only.

	(b) The ->n_in_progress is simply the number of objects that have been
	    taken off of the object's pending queue for the purposes of being
	    run.  This is decremented by fscache_op_complete() only.

	(c) The ->n_exclusive is the number of exclusive ops that have been
	    submitted and queued or are in progress.  It is decremented by
	    fscache_op_complete() and by fscache_cancel_op().

     fscache_put_operation() and fscache_operation_gc() now no longer try to
     clean up ->n_exclusive and ->n_in_progress.  That was leading to double
     decrements against fscache_cancel_op().

     fscache_cancel_op() now no longer decrements ->n_ops.  That was leading to
     double decrements against fscache_put_operation().

     fscache_submit_exclusive_op() now decides whether it has to queue an op
     based on ->n_in_progress being > 0 rather than ->n_ops > 0 as the latter
     will persist in being true even after all preceding operations have been
     cancelled or completed.  Furthermore, if an object is active and there are
     runnable ops against it, there must be at least one op running.

 (4) Add a remaining-pages counter (n_pages) to struct fscache_retrieval and
     provide a function to record completion of the pages as they complete.

     When n_pages reaches 0, the operation is deemed to be complete and
     fscache_op_complete() is called.

     Add calls to fscache_retrieval_complete() anywhere we've finished with a
     page we've been given to read or allocate for.  This includes places where
     we just return pages to the netfs for reading from the server and where
     accessing the cache fails and we discard the proposed netfs page.

The bugs in the unfixed state management manifest themselves as oopses like the
following where the operation completion gets out of sync with return of the
cookie by the netfs.  This is possible because the cache unlocks and returns
all the netfs pages before recording its completion - which means that there's
nothing to stop the netfs discarding them and returning the cookie.
