Note that there is a conflict with the rdma tree in this pull request, since
we delete a file that has been changed in the rdma tree. Hopefully that's
easy enough to resolve!
We also were unable to track down a maintainer for Neil Brown's changes to
the generic cred code that are prerequisites to his RPC cred cleanup patches.
We've been asking around for several months without any response, so
hopefully it's okay to include those patches in this pull request.

totalram_pages and totalhigh_pages are made static inline function.
Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating
things. It was discussed in length here,
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 So it seemes
better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic, with preventing
poteintial store-to-read tearing as a bonus.

SUNRPC has two sorts of credentials, both of which appear as
"struct rpc_cred".
There are "generic credentials" which are supplied by clients
such as NFS and passed in 'struct rpc_message' to indicate
which user should be used to authorize the request, and there
are low-level credentials such as AUTH_NULL, AUTH_UNIX, AUTH_GSS
which describe the credential to be sent over the wires.
This patch replaces all the generic credentials by 'struct cred'
pointers - the credential structure used throughout Linux.
For machine credentials, there is a special 'struct cred *' pointer
which is statically allocated and recognized where needed as
having a special meaning. A look-up of a low-level cred will
map this to a machine credential.

NFS needs to know when a credential is about to expire so that
it can modify write-back behaviour to finish the write inside the
expiry time.
It currently uses functions in SUNRPC code which make use of a
fairly complex callback scheme and flags in the generic credientials.
As I am working to discard the generic credentials, this has to change.
This patch moves the logic into NFS, in part by finding and caching
the low-level credential in the open_context. We then make direct
cred-api calls on that.
This makes the code much simpler and removes a dependency on generic
rpc credentials.

Currently, if the NFS_INO_INVALID_ATTR flag is set, for instance by
a call to nfs_post_op_update_inode_locked(), then it will not be cleared
until all the attributes have been revalidated. This means, for instance,
that NFSv4 writes will always force a full attribute revalidation.
Track the ctime, mtime, size and change attribute separately from the
other attributes so that we can have nfs_post_op_update_inode_locked()
set them correctly, and later have the cache consistency bitmask be
able to clear them.

We do want to respect the FLUSH_SYNC argument to nfs_commit_inode() to
ensure that all outstanding COMMIT requests to the inode in question are
complete. Currently we may exit early from both nfs_commit_inode() and
nfs_write_inode() even if there are COMMIT requests in flight, or unstable
writes on the commit list.
In order to get the right semantics w.r.t. sync_inode(), we don't need
to have nfs_commit_inode() reset the inode dirty flags when called from
nfs_wb_page() and/or nfs_wb_all(). We just need to ensure that
nfs_write_inode() leaves them in the right state if there are outstanding
commits, or stable pages.

Pull inode->i_version rework from Jeff Layton:
"This pile of patches is a rework of the inode->i_version field. We
have traditionally incremented that field on every inode data or
metadata change. Typically this increment needs to be logged on disk
even when nothing else has changed, which is rather expensive.
It turns out though that none of the consumers of that field actually
require this behavior. The only real requirement for all of them is
that it be different iff the inode has changed since the last time the
field was checked.
Given that, we can optimize away most of the i_version increments and
avoid dirtying inode metadata when the only change is to the i_version
and no one is querying it. Queries of the i_version field are rather
rare, so we can help write performance under many common workloads.
This patch series converts existing accesses of the i_version field to
a new API, and then converts all of the in-kernel filesystems to use
it. The last patch in the series then converts the backend
implementation to a scheme that optimizes away a large portion of the
metadata updates when no one is looking at it.
In my own testing this series significantly helps performance with
small I/O sizes. I also got this email for Christmas this year from
the kernel test robot (a 244% r/w bandwidth improvement with XFS over
DAX, with 4k writes):
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/25/8

They aren't used.
2/ Make nfs_context_set_write_error() a "static inline" in internal.h
so we can...
3/ Use nfs_context_set_write_error() instead of mapping_set_error()
if nfs_pageio_add_request() fails before sending any request.
NFS generally keeps errors in the open_context, not the mapping,
so this is more consistent.
4/ If filemap_write_and_write_range() reports any error, still
check ctx->error. The value in ctx->error is likely to be
more useful. As part of this, NFS_CONTEXT_ERROR_WRITE is
cleared slightly earlier, before nfs_file_fsync_commit() is called,
rather than at the start of that function.

Tools like tcpdump and rpcdebug can be very useful. But there are
plenty of environments where they are difficult or impossible to
use. For example, we've had customers report I/O failures during
workloads so heavy that collecting network traffic or enabling
RPC debugging are themselves onerous.
The kernel's static tracepoints are lightweight (less likely to
introduce timing changes) and efficient (the trace data is compact).
They also work in scenarios where capturing network traffic is not
possible due to lack of hardware support (some InfiniBand HCAs) or
where data or network privacy is a concern.
Introduce tracepoints that show when an NFS READ, WRITE, or COMMIT
is initiated, and when it completes. Record the arguments and
results of each operation, which are not shown by existing sunrpc
module's tracepoints.
For instance, the recorded offset and count can be used to match an
"initiate" event to a "done" event. If an NFS READ result returns
fewer bytes than requested or zero, seeing the EOF flag can be
probative. Seeing an NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID result is also indication
of a particular class of problems. The timing information attached
to each event record can often be useful as well.
Usage example:
[root@manet tmp]# trace-cmd record -e nfs:*initiate* -e nfs:*done
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/nfs/*initiate*/filter
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/nfs/*done/filter
Hit Ctrl^C to stop recording
^CKernel buffer statistics:
Note: "entries" are the entries left in the kernel ring buffer and are not
recorded in the trace data. They should all be zero.
CPU: 0
entries: 0
overrun: 0
commit overrun: 0
bytes: 3680
oldest event ts: 78.367422
now ts: 100.124419
dropped events: 0
read events: 74
... and so on.

If we skip a subrequest due to a zero refcount, we should still count
the byte range that it covered so that we accurately reconstruct the
original request size.

That can deadlock if this is the last reference since
nfs_page_group_destroy() calls nfs_page_group_sync_on_bit().
Note that even if the page was removed from the subpage list,
the req->wb_head could still be pointing to the old head.

Since the commit list is not ordered, it is possible for nfs_scan_commit_list
to hold a request that nfs_lock_and_join_requests() is waiting for, while
at the same time trying to grab a request that nfs_lock_and_join_requests
already holds.

If a request is on the commit list, but is locked, we will currently skip

Split out the 2 cases so that we can treat the locking differently.
The issue is that the locking in the pageswapcache cache is highly
linked to the commit list locking.

Fix up the test in nfs_page_group_covers_page(). The simplest implementation
is to check that we have a set of intersecting or contiguous subrequests
that connect page offset 0 to nfs_page_length(req->wb_page).

Since nfs_page_group_destroy() does not take any locks on the requests
to be freed, we need to ensure that we don't inadvertently free the
request in nfs_destroy_unlinked_subrequests() while the last reference
is being released elsewhere.
Do this by:
1) Taking a reference to the request unless it is already being freed
2) Checking (under the page group lock) if PG_TEARDOWN is already set before
freeing an unreferenced request in nfs_destroy_unlinked_subrequests()

When locking the entire group in order to remove subrequests,
the locks are always taken in order, and with the page group
lock being taken after the page head is locked. The intention
is that:
1) The lock on the group head guarantees that requests may not
be removed from the group (although new entries could be appended
if we're not holding the group lock).
2) It is safe to drop and retake the page group lock while iterating
through the list, in particular when waiting for a subrequest lock.

We should no longer need the inode->i_lock, now that we've
straightened out the request locking. The locking schema is now:
1) Lock page head request
2) Lock the page group
3) Lock the subrequests one by one
Note that there is a subtle race with nfs_inode_remove_request() due
to the fact that the latter does not lock the page head, when removing
it from the struct page. Only the last subrequest is locked, hence
we need to re-check that the PagePrivate(page) is still set after
we've locked all the subrequests.

All other callers of nfs_page_group_lock() appear to already hold the

is inefficient, although not deadlock prone since we roll back all
locks on contention.
