With the new fscache API, the PageFsCache bit now indicates that the page is being written to the cache and shouldn't be modified or released until it's finished. Change releasepage and invalidatepage to wait on that bit before returning. Also define FSCACHE_USE_NEW_IO_API so that we opt into the new fscache API. Signed-off-by:

With the new netfs read helper functions, we won't need a lot of this infrastructure as it handles the pagecache pages itself. Rip out the read handling for now, and much of the old infrastructure that deals in individual pages. The cookie handling is mostly unchanged, however. Signed-off-by:

David Howells authored
Fix some miscellaneous things in the new netfs lib[1]: (1) The kerneldoc for netfs_readpage() shouldn't say netfs_page(). (2) netfs_readpage() can get an integer overflow on 32-bit when it multiplies page_index(page) by PAGE_SIZE. It should use page_file_offset() instead. (3) netfs_write_begin() should use page_offset() to avoid the same overflow. Note that netfs_readpage() needs to use page_file_offset() rather than page_offset() as it may see swap-over-NFS.

Fix four things[1] in the patch that adds ITER_XARRAY[2]: (1) Remove the address_space struct predeclaration. This is a holdover from when it was ITER_MAPPING. (2) Fix _copy_mc_to_iter() so that the xarray segment updates count and iov_offset in the iterator before returning. (3) Fix iov_iter_alignment() to not loop in the xarray case. Because the middle pages are all whole pages, only the end pages need be considered - and this can be reduced to just looking at the start position in the xarray and the iteration size. (4) Fix iov_iter_advance() to limit the size of the advance to no more than the remaining iteration size. Reported-by:Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by:

No problem on 64-bit, or without huge pages, but xfstests generic/285 and other SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA tests have regressed on huge tmpfs, and on 32-bit architectures, with the new mapping_seek_hole_data(). Several different bugs turned out to need fixing. u64 cast to stop losing bits when converting unsigned long to loff_t (and let's use shifts throughout, rather than mixed with * and /). Use round_up() when advancing pos, to stop assuming that pos was already THP-aligned when advancing it by THP-size. (This use of round_up() assumes that any THP has THP-aligned index: true at present and true going forward, but could be recoded to avoid the assumption.) Use xas_set() when iterating away from a THP, so that xa_index stays in synch with start, instead of drifting away to return bogus offset. Check start against end to avoid wrapping 32-bit xa_index to 0 (and to handle these additional cases, seek_data or not, it's easier to break the loop than goto: so rearrange exit from the function).

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] - Combine ki->term_func calls in cachefiles_read_complete()[2]. - Remove explicit NULL initialiser[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(). - Rename fs/fscache/page2.c to io.c to match later patches.

David Howells authored
Add an interface to the netfs helper library for reading data from the cache instead of downloading it from the server and support for writing data just downloaded or cleared to the cache. The API passes an iov_iter to the cache read/write routines to indicate the data/buffer to be used. This is done using the ITER_XARRAY type to provide direct access to the netfs inode's pagecache. When the netfs's ->begin_cache_operation() method is called, this must fill in the cache_resources in the netfs_read_request struct, including the netfs_cache_ops used by the helper lib to talk to the cache. The helper lib does not directly access the cache. Changes: v6: - Call trace_netfs_read() after beginning the cache op so that the cookie debug ID can be logged[3]. - Don't record the error from writing to the cache. We don't want to pass it back to the netfs[4]. - Fix copy-to-cache subreq amalgamation to not round up as it goes along otherwise it overcalculates the length of the write[5]. v5: - Use end_page_fscache() rather than unlock_page_fscache()[2]. v4: - Added flag to netfs_subreq_terminated() to indicate that the caller may have been running async and stuff that might sleep needs punting to a workqueue (can't use in_softirq()[1]). - Add missing inc of netfs_n_rh_read stat. - Move initial definition of fscache_begin_read_operation() elsewhere. - Need to call op->begin_cache_operation() from netfs_write_begin().

Add a pair of helper functions: (*) netfs_readahead() (*) netfs_readpage() to do the work of handling a readahead or a readpage, where the page(s) that form part of the request may be split between the local cache, the server or just require clearing, and may be single pages and transparent huge pages. This is all handled within the helper. Note that while both will read from the cache if there is data present, only netfs_readahead() will expand the request beyond what it was asked to do, and only netfs_readahead() will write back to the cache. netfs_readpage(), on the other hand, is synchronous and only fetches the page (which might be a THP) it is asked for. The netfs gives the helper parameters from the VM, the cache cookie it wants to use (or NULL) and a table of operations (only one of which is mandatory): (*) expand_readahead() [optional] Called to allow the netfs to request an expansion of a readahead request to meet its own alignment requirements. This is done by changing rreq->start and rreq->len. (*) clamp_length() [optional] Called to allow the netfs to cut down a subrequest to meet its own boundary requirements. If it does this, the helper will generate additional subrequests until the full request is satisfied. (*) is_still_valid() [optional] Called to find out if the data just read from the cache has been invalidated and must be reread from the server. (*) issue_op() [required] Called to ask the netfs to issue a read to the server. The subrequest describes the read. The read request holds information about the file being accessed. The netfs can cache information in rreq->netfs_priv. Upon completion, the netfs should set the error, transferred and can also set FSCACHE_SREQ_CLEAR_TAIL and then call fscache_subreq_terminated(). (*) done() [optional] Called after the pages have been unlocked. The read request is still pinning the file and mapping and may still be pinning pages with PG_fscache. rreq->error indicates any error that has been accumulated. (*) cleanup() [optional] Called when the helper is disposing of a finished read request. This allows the netfs to clear rreq->netfs_priv. Netfs support is enabled with CONFIG_NETFS_SUPPORT=y. It will be built even if CONFIG_FSCACHE=n and in this case much of it should be optimised away, allowing the filesystem to use it even when caching is disabled. Changes: v5: - Comment why netfs_readahead() is putting pages[2]. - Use page_file_mapping() rather than page->mapping[2]. - Use page_index() rather than page->index[2]. - Use set_page_fscache()[3] rather then SetPageFsCache() as this takes an appropriate ref too[4]. v4: - Folded in a kerneldoc comment fix. - Folded in a fix for the error handling in the case that ENOMEM occurs. - Added flag to netfs_subreq_terminated() to indicate that the caller may have been running async and stuff that might sleep needs punting to a workqueue (can't use in_softirq()[1]).

Add set/end/wait_on_page_fscache() as aliases of set/end/wait_page_private_2(). These allow a page to marked with PG_fscache, the flag to be removed and waiters woken and waiting for the flag to be cleared. A ref on the page is also taken and dropped. [Linus suggested putting the fscache-themed functions into the caching-specific headers rather than pagemap.h[1]] Changes: v5: - Mirror the changes to the core routines[2]. Signed-off-by:

Move the PG_fscache related helper funcs (such as SetPageFsCache()) to linux/netfs.h rather than linux/fscache.h as the intention is to move to a model where they're used by the network filesystem and the helper library, but not by fscache/cachefiles itself. Signed-off-by:
