      leases: fix write-open/read-lease race · f3c7691e
      J. Bruce Fields authored
      In setlease, we use i_writecount to decide whether we can give out a
      read lease.
      
      In open, we break leases before incrementing i_writecount.
      
      There is therefore a window between the break lease and the i_writecount
      increment when setlease could add a new read lease.
      
      This would leave us with a simultaneous write open and read lease, which
      shouldn't happen.

      vfs: do (nearly) lockless generic_file_llseek · ef3d0fd2
      Andi Kleen authored
      The i_mutex lock use of generic _file_llseek hurts.  Independent processes
      accessing the same file synchronize over a single lock, even though
      they have no need for synchronization at all.
      
      Under high utilization this can cause llseek to scale very poorly on larger
      systems.
      
      This patch does some rethinking of the llseek locking model:
      
      First the 64bit f_pos is not necessarily atomic without locks
      on 32bit systems. This can already cause races with read() today.
      This was discussed on linux-kernel in the past and deemed acceptable.
      The patch does not change that.
      
      Let's look at the different seek variants:
      
      SEEK_SET: Doesn't really need any locking.
      If there's a race one writer wins, the other loses.
      
      For 32bit the non atomic update races against read()
      stay the same. Without a lock they can also happen
      against write() now.  The read() race was deemed
      acceptable in past discussions, and I think if it's
      ok for read it's ok for write too.
      
      => Don't need a lock.
      
      SEEK_END: This behaves like SEEK_SET plus it reads
      the maximum size too. Reading the maximum size would have the
      32bit atomic problem. But luckily we already have a way to read
      the maximum size without locking (i_size_read), so we
      can just use that instead.
      
      Without i_mutex there is no synchronization with write() anymore,
      however since the write() update is atomic on 64bit it just behaves
      like another racy SEEK_SET.  On non atomic 32bit it's the same
      as SEEK_SET.
      
      => Don't need a lock, but need to use i_size_read()
      
      SEEK_CUR: This has a read-modify-write race window
      on the same file. One could argue that any application
      doing unsynchronized seeks on the same file is already broken.
      But for the sake of not adding a regression here I'm
      using the file->f_lock to synchronize this. Using this
      lock is much better than the inode mutex because it doesn't
      synchronize between processes.
      
      => So still need a lock, but can use a f_lock.
      
      This patch implements this new scheme in generic_file_llseek.
      I dropped generic_file_llseek_unlocked and changed all callers.

      direct-io: inline the complete submission path · ba253fbf
      Andi Kleen authored
      Add inlines to all the submission path functions. While this increases
      code size it also gives gcc a lot of optimization opportunities
      in this critical hotpath.
      
      In particular -- together with some other changes -- this
      allows gcc to get rid of the unnecessary clearing of
      sdio at the beginning and optimize the messy parameter passing.
      Any non inlining of a function which takes a sdio parameter
      would break this optimization because they cannot be done if the
      address of a structure is taken.
      
      Note that benefits are only seen with CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING
      and CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE both set to off.
      
      This gives about 2.2% improvement on a large database benchmark
      with a high IOPS rate.

      direct-io: separate map_bh from dio · 18772641
      Andi Kleen authored
      Only a single b_private field in the map_bh buffer head is needed after
      the submission path. Move map_bh separately to avoid storing
      this information in the long term slab.
      
      This avoids the weird 104 byte hole in struct dio_submit which also needed
      to be memseted early.

      direct-io: use a slab cache for struct dio · 6e8267f5
      Andi Kleen authored
      A direct slab call is slightly faster than kmalloc and can be better cached
      per CPU. It also avoids rounding to the next kmalloc slab.
      
      In addition this enforces cache line alignment for struct dio to avoid
      any false sharing.

      Fix most problems reported by pahole.
      
      There is still a weird 104 byte hole after map_bh. I'm not sure what
      causes this.

      direct-io: separate fields only used in the submission path from struct dio · eb28be2b
      Andi Kleen authored
      This large, but largely mechanic, patch moves all fields in struct dio
      that are only used in the submission path into a separate on stack
      data structure. This has the advantage that the memory is very likely
      cache hot, which is not guaranteed for memory fresh out of kmalloc.
      
      This also gives gcc more optimization potential because it can easier
      determine that there are no external aliases for these variables.
      
      The sdio initialization is a initialization now instead of memset.
      This allows gcc to break sdio into individual fields and optimize
      away unnecessary zeroing (after all the functions are inlined)

      vfs: fix spinning prevention in prune_icache_sb · 62a3ddef
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      We need to move the inode to the end of the list to actually make the
      spinning prevention explained in the comment above it work.  With a
      plain list_move it will simply stay in place as we're always reclaiming
      from the head of the list.
