It turns out that at least some versions of glibc end up reading
/proc/meminfo at every single startup, because glibc wants to know the
amount of memory the machine has. And while that's arguably insane,
it's just how things are.
And it turns out that it's not all that expensive most of the time, but
the vmalloc information statistics (amount of virtual memory used in the
vmalloc space, and the biggest remaining chunk) can be rather expensive
to compute.
The 'get_vmalloc_info()' function actually showed up on my profiles as
4% of the CPU usage of "make test" in the git source repository, because
the git tests are lots of very short-lived shell-scripts etc.
It turns out that apparently this same silly vmalloc info gathering
shows up on the facebook servers too, according to Dave Jones. So it's
not just "make test" for git.
We had two patches to just cache the information (one by me, one by
Ingo) to mitigate this issue, but the whole vmalloc information of of
rather dubious value to begin with, and people who *actually* want to
know what the situation is wrt the vmalloc area should just look at the
much more complete /proc/vmallocinfo instead.
In fact, according to my testing - and perhaps more importantly,
according to that big search engine in the sky: Google - there is
nothing out there that actually cares about those two expensive fields:
VmallocUsed and VmallocChunk.
So let's try to just remove them entirely. Actually, this just removes
the computation and reports the numbers as zero for now, just to try to
be minimally intrusive.
If this breaks anything, we'll obviously have to re-introduce the code
to compute this all and add the caching patches on top. But if given
the option, I'd really prefer to just remove this bad idea entirely
rather than add even more code to work around our historical mistake
that likely nobody really cares about.

Merge file descriptor allocation speedup.
Eric Dumazet has a test-case for a fairly common network deamon load
pattern: openign and closing a lot of sockets that each have very little
work done on them. It turns out that in that case, the cost of just
finding the correct file descriptor number can be a dominating factor.
We've long had a trivial optimization for allocating file descriptors
sequentially, but that optimization ends up being not very effective
when other file descriptors are being closed concurrently, and the fd
patterns are not some simple FIFO pattern. In such cases we ended up
spending a lot of time just scanning the bitmap of open file descriptors
in order to find the next file descriptor number to open.
This trivial patch-series mitigates that by simply introducing a
second-level bitmap of which words in the first bitmap are already fully
allocated. That cuts down the cost of scanning by an order of magnitude
in some pathological (but realistic) cases.
The second patch is an even more trivial patch to avoid unnecessarily
dirtying the cacheline for the close-on-exec bit array that normally
ends up being all empty.
* fs-file-descriptor-optimization:
vfs: conditionally clear close-on-exec flag
vfs: Fix pathological performance case for __alloc_fd()
We clear the close-on-exec flag when opening and closing files, and the
bit was almost always already clear before. Avoid dirtying the
cacheline if the clearning isn't necessary. That avoids unnecessary
cacheline dirtying and bouncing in multi-socket environments.
Eric Dumazet has a file descriptor benchmark that goes 4% faster from
this on his two-socket machine. It's probably partly superlinear
improvement due to getting slightly less spinlock contention on the
file_lock spinlock due to less work in the critical section.

And Eric Dumazet has a somewhat realistic multithreaded microbenchmark
that opens and closes a lot of sockets with minimal work per socket.
This patch largely fixes it. We keep a 2nd-level bitmap of the open
file bitmaps, showing which words are already full. So then we can
traverse that second-level bitmap to efficiently skip already allocated
file descriptors.
On his benchmark, this improves performance by up to an order of
magnitude, by avoiding the excessive open file bitmap scanning.

bdi_split_work_to_wbs() uses list_for_each_entry_rcu_continue()
to walk @bdi->wb_list. To set up the initial iteration
condition, it uses list_entry_rcu() to calculate the entry
pointer corresponding to the list head; however, this isn't an
actual RCU dereference and using list_entry_rcu() for it ended
up breaking a proposed list_entry_rcu() change because it was
feeding an non-lvalue pointer into the macro.
Don't use the RCU variant for simple pointer offsetting. Use
list_entry() instead.

Attempting to hardlink to an unsafe file (e.g. a setuid binary) from
within an unprivileged user namespace fails, even if CAP_FOWNER is held
within the namespace. This may cause various failures, such as a gentoo
installation within a lxc container failing to build and install specific
packages.
This change permits hardlinking of files owned by mapped uids, if
CAP_FOWNER is held for that namespace. Furthermore, it improves consistency
by using the existing inode_owner_or_capable(), which is aware of
namespaced capabilities as of 23adbe12ef ("fs,userns: Change
inode_capable to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid").

memory for struct btrfs_balance_control has already been allocated.
Ownership of bctl is passed to btrfs_balance() in the good case,
thus the memory is not freed due to the introduced jump. Make sure
that the memory gets freed in any case as necessary. Detected by

Up until now the_integrity profile has been dynamically allocated and
attached to struct gendisk after the disk has been made active.
This causes problems because NVMe devices need to register the profile
prior to the partition table being read due to a mandatory metadata
buffer requirement. In addition, DM goes through hoops to deal with
preallocating, but not initializing integrity profiles.
Since the integrity profile is small (4 bytes + a pointer), Christoph
suggested moving it to struct gendisk proper. This requires several
changes:
- Moving the blk_integrity definition to genhd.h.
- Inlining blk_integrity in struct gendisk.
- Removing the dynamic allocation code.
- Adding helper functions which allow gendisk to set up and tear down
the integrity sysfs dir when a disk is added/deleted.
- Adding a blk_integrity_revalidate() callback for updating the stable
pages bdi setting.
- The calls that depend on whether a device has an integrity profile or
not now key off of the bi->profile pointer.
- Simplifying the integrity support routines in DM (Mike Snitzer).

Current code will always truncate tailing page if its alloc_start is
smaller than inode size.
For example, the file extent layout is like:
0 4K 8K 16K 32K
|<-----Extent A---------------->|
|<--Inode size: 18K---------->|
But if calling fallocate even for range [0,4K), it will cause btrfs to
re-truncate the range [16,32K), causing COW and a new extent.
0 4K 8K 16K 32K
|///////| <- Fallocate call range
|<-----Extent A-------->|<--B-->|
The cause is quite easy, just a careless btrfs_truncate_inode() in a
else branch without extra judgment.
Fix it by add judgment on whether the fallocate range is beyond isize.

Commit 6afdb859b7 ("mm: do not ignore mapping_gfp_mask in page cache
allocation paths") has caught some users of hardcoded GFP_KERNEL used in
the page cache allocation paths. This, however, wasn't complete and
there were others which went unnoticed.
Dave Chinner has reported the following deadlock for xfs on loop device:
: With the recent merge of the loop device changes, I'm now seeing
: XFS deadlock on my single CPU, 1GB RAM VM running xfs/073.
:
: The deadlocked is as follows:
:
: kloopd1: loop_queue_read_work
: xfs_file_iter_read
: lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_SHARED (on image file)
: page cache read (GFP_KERNEL)
: radix tree alloc
: memory reclaim
: reclaim XFS inodes
: log force to unpin inodes
: <wait for log IO completion>
:
: xfs-cil/loop1: <does log force IO work>
: xlog_cil_push
: xlog_write
: <loop issuing log writes>
: xlog_state_get_iclog_space()
: <blocks due to all log buffers under write io>
: <waits for IO completion>
:
: kloopd1: loop_queue_write_work
: xfs_file_write_iter
: lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL (on image file)
: <wait for inode to be unlocked>
:
: i.e. the kloopd, with it's split read and write work queues, has
: introduced a dependency through memory reclaim. i.e. that writes
: need to be able to progress for reads make progress.
:
: The problem, fundamentally, is that mpage_readpages() does a
: GFP_KERNEL allocation, rather than paying attention to the inode's
: mapping gfp mask, which is set to GFP_NOFS.
:
: The didn't used to happen, because the loop device used to issue
: reads through the splice path and that does:
:
: error = add_to_page_cache_lru(page, mapping, index,
: GFP_KERNEL & mapping_gfp_mask(mapping));
This has changed by commit aa4d86163e ("block: loop: switch to VFS
ITER_BVEC").
This patch changes mpage_readpage{s} to follow gfp mask set for the
mapping. There are, however, other places which are doing basically the
same.
lustre:ll_dir_filler is doing GFP_KERNEL from the function which
apparently uses GFP_NOFS for other allocations so let's make this
consistent.
cifs:readpages_get_pages is called from cifs_readpages and
__cifs_readpages_from_fscache called from the same path obeys mapping
gfp.
ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping is hardcoding GFP_KERNEL as well
regardless it uses mapping_gfp_mask for the page allocation.
ext4_mpage_readpages is the called from the page cache allocation path
same as read_pages and read_cache_pages
As I've noticed in my previous post I cannot say I would be happy about
sprinkling mapping_gfp_mask all over the place and it sounds like we
should drop gfp_mask argument altogether and use it internally in
__add_to_page_cache_locked that would require all the filesystems to use
mapping gfp consistently which I am not sure is the case here. From a
quick glance it seems that some file system use it all the time while
others are selective.

The code for btrfs inode-resolve has never worked properly for
files with enough hard links to trigger extrefs. It was trying to
get the leaf out of a path after freeing the path:
btrfs_release_path(path);
leaf = path->nodes[0];
item_size = btrfs_item_size_nr(leaf, slot);
The fix here is to use the extent buffer we cloned just a little higher
up to avoid deadlocks caused by using the leaf in the path.

Since we use different page cache (normally inode's page cache for R/W
and meta inode's page cache for GC) to cache the same physical block
which is belong to an encrypted inode. Writeback of these two page
cache should be exclusive, but now we didn't handle writeback state
well, so there may be potential racing problem:
a)
kworker: f2fs_gc:
- f2fs_write_data_pages
- f2fs_write_data_page
- do_write_data_page
- write_data_page
- f2fs_submit_page_mbio
(page#1 in inode's page cache was queued
in f2fs bio cache, and be ready to write
to new blkaddr)
- gc_data_segment
- move_encrypted_block
- pagecache_get_page
(page#2 in meta inode's page cache
was cached with the invalid datas
of physical block located in new
blkaddr)
- f2fs_submit_page_mbio
(page#1 was submitted, later, page#2
with invalid data will be submitted)
b)
f2fs_gc:
- gc_data_segment
- move_encrypted_block
- f2fs_submit_page_mbio
(page#1 in meta inode's page cache was
queued in f2fs bio cache, and be ready
to write to new blkaddr)
user thread:
- f2fs_write_begin
- f2fs_submit_page_bio
(we submit the request to block layer
to update page#2 in inode's page cache
with physical block located in new
blkaddr, so here we may read gabbage
data from new blkaddr since GC hasn't
writebacked the page#1 yet)

Now, we use ra_meta_pages to reads continuous physical blocks as much as
possible to improve performance of following reads. However, ra_meta_pages
uses a synchronous readahead approach by submitting bio with READ, as READ
is with high priority, it can not be used in the case of preloading blocks,
and it's not sure when these RAed pages will be used.

So, now we can use this again to improve the reported performance regression:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/8/20
This reverts commit 15bec0ff5a9ba6d203178fa8772259df6207942a.
This patch introduces F2FS_GOING_DOWN_METAFLUSH which flushes meta pages like
SSA blocks and then blocks all the writes.
This can be used by power-failure tests.

bdi_for_each_wb() is used in several places to wake up or issue
writeback work items to all wb's (bdi_writeback's) on a given bdi.
The iteration is performed by walking bdi->cgwb_tree; however, the
tree only indexes wb's which are currently active.
For example, when a memcg gets associated with a different blkcg, the
old wb is removed from the tree so that the new one can be indexed.
The old wb starts dying from then on but will linger till all its
inodes are drained. As these dying wb's may still host dirty inodes,
writeback operations which affect all wb's must include them.
bdi_for_each_wb() skipping dying wb's led to sync(2) missing and
failing to sync the inodes belonging to those wb's.
This patch adds a RCU protected @bdi->wb_list which lists all wb's
beloinging to that bdi. wb's are added on creation and removed on
release rather than on the start of destruction. bdi_for_each_wb()
usages are replaced with list_for_each[_continue]_rcu() iterations
over @bdi->wb_list and bdi_for_each_wb() and its helpers are removed.
v2: Updated as per Jan. last_wb ref leak in bdi_split_work_to_wbs()
fixed and unnecessary list head severing in cgwb_bdi_destroy()
removed.

If two overlayfs filesystems are stacked on top of each other, then we need
recursion in ovl_d_select_inode().
I guess d_backing_inode() is supposed to do that. But currently it doesn't
and that functionality is open coded in vfs_open(). This is now copied
into ovl_d_select_inode() to fix this regression.

In ovl_copy_up_locked(), newdentry is leaked if the function exits through
out_cleanup as this just to out after calling ovl_cleanup() - which doesn't
actually release the ref on newdentry.
The out_cleanup segment should instead exit through out2 as certainly
newdentry leaks - and possibly upper does also, though this isn't caught
given the catch of newdentry.
Without this fix, something like the following is seen:
BUG: Dentry ffff880023e9eb20{i=f861,n=#ffff880023e82d90} still in use (1) [unmount of tmpfs tmpfs]
BUG: Dentry ffff880023ece640{i=0,n=bigfile} still in use (1) [unmount of tmpfs tmpfs]
when unmounting the upper layer after an error occurred in copyup.
An error can be induced by creating a big file in a lower layer with
something like:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/lower/a/bigfile bs=65536 count=1 seek=$((0xf000))
to create a large file (4.1G). Overlay an upper layer that is too small
(on tmpfs might do) and then induce a copy up by opening it writably.

Pass O_LARGEFILE unconditionally in ovl_copy_up_data() as it's purely for

mishandled if the application isn't aware that there might be an integer

"After switching to version 4.1.6, our parallelized and distributed

From our 'git bisect' testing, the following commit appears to be the
possible cause of the behavior we've been seeing: commit 766c4cbfacd8"
Al Viro says:
"What happens is that 766c4cbfac got the things subtly wrong.
We used to treat d_is_negative() after lookup_fast() as "fall with
ENOENT". That was wrong - checking ->d_flags outside of ->d_seq
protection is unreliable and failing with hard error on what should've
fallen back to non-RCU pathname resolution is a bug.
Unfortunately, we'd pulled the test too far up and ran afoul of
another kind of staleness. The dentry might have been absolutely
stable from the RCU point of view (and we might be on UP, etc), but
stale from the remote fs point of view. If ->d_revalidate() returns
"it's actually stale", dentry gets thrown away and the original code
wouldn't even have looked at its ->d_flags.
What we need is to check ->d_flags where 766c4cbfac does (prior to
->d_seq validation) but only use the result in cases where we do not
discard this dentry outright"

This patch fixes to maintain the right section count freed in garbage
collecting when triggering a foreground gc.
Besides, when a foreground gc is running on current selected section, once
we fail to gc one segment, it's better to abandon gcing the left segments
in current section, because anyway we will select next victim for
foreground gc, so gc on the left segments in previous section will become
overhead and also cause the long latency for caller.

Previously, we skip dentry block writes when wbc is SYNC_NONE with no memory
pressure and the number of dirty pages is pretty small.
But, we didn't skip for normal data writes, which gives us not much big impact
on overall performance.
Moreover, by skipping some data writes, kworker falls into infinite loop to try
to write blocks, when many dir inodes have only one dentry block.
So, this patch removes skipping data writes.

truncate_data_blocks_range can do in batches truncation which makes all
changes in dnode page content, dnode page status, extent cache, block
count updating together.
But previously, truncate_hole() always truncates one block in dnode page

This patch changes truncate_hole() to do in batches truncation for all
target blocks in one direct node inside truncate_data_blocks_range, which
