It's very common for the buffer heads in the lru to have different block
numbers. By comparing the blocknr before the bdev and size we can
reduce the cost of searching in the very common case where all the
entries have the same bdev and size.
In quick hot cache cycle counting tests on a single fs workstation this
cut the cost of a miss by about 20%.
A diff of the disassembly shows the reordering of the bdev and blocknr
comparisons. This is in such a tiny loop that skipping one comparison
is a meaningful portion of the total work being done:

The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited,
case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics and
a slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so strnicmp
was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper for the new
strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.
To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in the
future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do
s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.

format_corename() can only pass the leader's pid to the core handler,
but there is no simple way to figure out which thread originated the
coredump.
As Jan explains, this also means that there is no simple way to create
the backtrace of the crashed process:
As programs are mostly compiled with implicit gcc -fomit-frame-pointer
one needs program's .eh_frame section (equivalently PT_GNU_EH_FRAME
segment) or .debug_frame section. .debug_frame usually is present only
in separate debug info files usually not even installed on the system.
While .eh_frame is a part of the executable/library (and it is even
always mapped for C++ exceptions unwinding) it no longer has to be
present anywhere on the disk as the program could be upgraded in the
meantime and the running instance has its executable file already
unlinked from disk.
One possibility is to echo 0x3f >/proc/*/coredump_filter and dump all
the file-backed memory including the executable's .eh_frame section.
But that can create huge core files, for example even due to mmapped
data files.
Other possibility would be to read .eh_frame from /proc/PID/mem at the
core_pattern handler time of the core dump. For the backtrace one needs
to read the register state first which can be done from core_pattern
handler:
ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tid, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACEEXIT)
close(0); // close pipe fd to resume the sleeping dumper
waitpid(); // should report EXIT
PTRACE_GETREGS or other requests
The remaining problem is how to get the 'tid' value of the crashed
thread. It could be read from the first NT_PRSTATUS note of the core
file but that makes the core_pattern handler complicated.
Unfortunately %t is already used so this patch uses %i/%I.
Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (https://github.com/abrt/abrt/wiki/overview)
is experimenting with this. It is using the elfutils
(https://fedorahosted.org/elfutils/) unwinder for generating the
backtraces. Apart from not needing matching executables as mentioned
above, another advantage is that we can get the backtrace without saving
the core (which might be quite large) to disk.

Support for fdatasync() has been implemented in NILFS2 for a long time,
but whenever the corresponding inode is dirty the implementation falls
back to a full-flegded sync(). Since every write operation has to
update the modification time of the file, the inode will almost always
be dirty and fdatasync() will fall back to sync() most of the time. But
this fallback is only necessary for a change of the file size and not
for a change of the various timestamps.
This patch adds a new flag NILFS_I_INODE_SYNC to differentiate between
those two situations.
* If it is set the file size was changed and a full sync is necessary.
* If it is not set then only the timestamps were updated and
fdatasync() can go ahead.
There is already a similar flag I_DIRTY_DATASYNC on the VFS layer with
the exact same semantics. Unfortunately it cannot be used directly,
because NILFS2 doesn't implement write_inode() and doesn't clear the VFS
flags when inodes are written out. So the VFS writeback thread can
clear I_DIRTY_DATASYNC at any time without notifying NILFS2. So
I_DIRTY_DATASYNC has to be mapped onto NILFS_I_INODE_SYNC in
nilfs_update_inode().

Under normal circumstances nilfs_sync_fs() writes out the super block,
which causes a flush of the underlying block device. But this depends
on the THE_NILFS_SB_DIRTY flag, which is only set if the pointer to the
last segment crosses a segment boundary. So if only a small amount of
data is written before the call to nilfs_sync_fs(), no flush of the
block device occurs.
In the above case an additional call to blkdev_issue_flush() is needed.
To prevent unnecessary overhead, the new flag nilfs->ns_flushed_device
is introduced, which is cleared whenever new logs are written and set
whenever the block device is flushed. For convenience the function
nilfs_flush_device() is added, which contains the above logic.

If rcu-walk mode we don't *have* to return -EISDIR for non-mount-traps
as we will simply drop into REF-walk and handling DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT
dentrys the slow way. But it is better if we do when possible.
In 'oz_mode', use the same condition as ref-walk: if not a mountpoint,
then it must be -EISDIR.
In regular mode there are most tests needed. Most of them can be
performed without taking any spinlocks. If we find a directory that
isn't obviously empty, and isn't mounted on, we need to call
'simple_empty()' which does take a spinlock. If this turned out to hurt
performance, some other approach could be found to signal when a
directory is known to be empty.

->fs_lock protects AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING. We need to be sure that once
the flag is set, no new references beneath the dentry are taken. So
rcu-walk currently needs to take fs_lock before checking the flag. This
hurts performance.
Change the expiry to a two-stage process. First set AUTOFS_INF_NO_RCU
which forces any path walk into ref-walk mode, then drop the lock and
call synchronize_rcu(). Once that returns we can be sure no rcu-walk is
active beneath the dentry and we can check reference counts again.
Now during an RCU-walk we can test AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING without taking
the lock as along as we test AUTOFS_INF_NO_RCU too. If either are set,
we must abort the RCU-walk If neither are set, we know that refcounts
will be tested again after we finish the RCU-walk so we are safe to
continue.
->fs_lock is still taken in d_manage() to check for a non-trap
directory. That will be resolved in the next patch.

Have a "test" function change the value it is testing can be confusing,

This series teaches autofs about RCU-walk so that we don't drop straight
into REF-walk when we hit an autofs directory, and so that we avoid
spinlocks as much as possible when performing an RCU-walk.
This is needed so that the benefits of the recent NFS support for
RCU-walk are fully available when NFS filesystems are automounted.
Patches have been carefully reviewed and tested both with test suites
and in production - thanks a lot to Ian Kent for his support there.
This patch (of 6):
Any attempt to look up a pathname that passes though an autofs4 mount is
currently forced out of RCU-walk into REF-walk.
This can significantly hurt performance of many-thread work loads on
many-core systems, especially if the automounted filesystem supports
RCU-walk but doesn't get to benefit from it.
So if autofs4_d_manage is called with rcu_walk set, only fail with -ECHILD
if it is necessary to wait longer than a spinlock.

gcc-4.9 on ARM gives us a mysterious warning about the binfmt_misc
parse_command function:
fs/binfmt_misc.c: In function 'parse_command.part.3':
fs/binfmt_misc.c:405:7: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
I've managed to trace this back to the ARM implementation of memset,
which is called from copy_from_user in case of a fault and which does
#define memset(p,v,n) \
({ \
void *__p = (p); size_t __n = n; \
if ((__n) != 0) { \
if (__builtin_constant_p((v)) && (v) == 0) \
__memzero((__p),(__n)); \
else \
memset((__p),(v),(__n)); \
} \
(__p); \
})
Apparently gcc gets confused by the check for "size != 0" and believes
that the size might be zero when it gets to the line that does "if
(s[count-1] == '\n')", so it would access data outside of the array.
gcc is clearly wrong here, since this condition was already checked
earlier in the function and the 'size' value can not change in the
meantime.
Fortunately, we can work around it and get rid of the warning by
rearranging the function to check for zero size after doing the
copy_from_user. It is still safe to pass a zero size into
copy_from_user, so it does not cause any side effects.

The current code places a 256 byte limit on the registration format.
This ends up being fairly limited when you try to do matching against a
binary format like ELF:
- the magic & mask formats cannot have any embedded NUL chars
(string_unescape_inplace halts at the first NUL)
- each escape sequence quadruples the size: \x00 is needed for NUL
- trying to match bytes at the start of the file as well as further
on leads to a lot of \x00 sequences in the mask
- magic & mask have to be the same length (when decoded)
- still need bytes for the other fields
- impossible!
Let's look at a concrete (and common) example: using QEMU to run MIPS
ELFs. The name field uses 11 bytes "qemu-mipsel". The interp uses 20
bytes "/usr/bin/qemu-mipsel". The type & flags takes up 4 bytes. We
need 7 bytes for the delimiter (usually ":"). We can skip offset. So
already we're down to 107 bytes to use with the magic/mask instead of
the real limit of 128 (BINPRM_BUF_SIZE). If people use shell code to
register (which they do the majority of the time), they're down to ~26
possible bytes since the escape sequence must be \x##.
The ELF format looks like (both 32 & 64 bit):
e_ident: 16 bytes
e_type: 2 bytes
e_machine: 2 bytes
Those 20 bytes are enough for most architectures because they have so few
formats in the first place, thus they can be uniquely identified. That
also means for shell users, since 20 is smaller than 26, they can sanely
register a handler.
But for some targets (like MIPS), we need to poke further. The ELF fields
continue on:
e_entry: 4 or 8 bytes
e_phoff: 4 or 8 bytes
e_shoff: 4 or 8 bytes
e_flags: 4 bytes
We only care about e_flags here as that includes the bits to identify
whether the ELF is O32/N32/N64. But now we have to consume another 16
bytes (for 32 bit ELFs) or 28 bytes (for 64 bit ELFs) just to match the
flags. If every byte is escaped, we send 288 more bytes to the kernel
((20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 12 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} + 4
{e_flags}) * 2 {mask,magic} * 4 {escape}) and we've clearly blown our
budget.
Even if we try to be clever and do the decoding ourselves (rather than
relying on the kernel to process \x##), we still can't hit the mark --
string_unescape_inplace treats mask & magic as C strings so NUL cannot
be embedded. That leaves us with having to pass \x00 for the 12/24
entry/phoff/shoff bytes (as those will be completely random addresses),
and that is a minimum requirement of 48/96 bytes for the mask alone.
Add up the rest and we blow through it (this is for 64 bit ELFs):
magic: 20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 24 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} +
4 {e_flags} = 48 # ^^ See note below.
mask: 20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 96 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} +
4 {e_flags} = 120
Remember above we had 107 left over, and now we're at 168. This is of
course the *best* case scenario -- you'll also want to have NUL bytes
in the magic & mask too to match literal zeros.
Note: the reason we can use 24 in the magic is that we can work off of the
fact that for bytes the mask would clobber, we can stuff any value into
magic that we want. So when mask is \x00, we don't need the magic to also
be \x00, it can be an unescaped raw byte like '!'. This lets us handle
more formats (barely) under the current 256 limit, but that's a pretty
tall hoop to force people to jump through.
With all that said, let's bump the limit from 256 bytes to 1920. This way
we support escaping every byte of the mask & magic field (which is 1024
bytes by themselves -- 128 * 4 * 2), and we leave plenty of room for other
fields. Like long paths to the interpreter (when you have source in your
/really/long/homedir/qemu/foo). Since the current code stuffs more than
one structure into the same buffer, we leave a bit of space to easily
round up to 2k. 1920 is just as arbitrary as 256 ;).

caused a regression in xfs_inumbers, which in turn broke
xfsdump, causing incomplete dumps.
The loop in xfs_inumbers() needs to fill the user-supplied
buffers, and iterates via xfs_btree_increment, reading new
ags as needed.
But the first time through the loop, if xfs_btree_increment()
succeeds, we continue, which triggers the ++agno at the bottom
of the loop, and we skip to soon to the next ag - without
the proper setup under next_ag to read the next ag.
Fix this by removing the agno increment from the loop conditional,
and only increment agno if we have actually hit the code under
the next_ag: target.

The following pairs of system calls dealing with extended attributes only
differ in their behavior on whether the symbolic link is followed (when
the named file is a symbolic link):
- setxattr() and lsetxattr()
- getxattr() and lgetxattr()
- listxattr() and llistxattr()
- removexattr() and lremovexattr()
Despite this, the implementations all had duplicated code, so this commit
redirects each of the above pairs of system calls to a corresponding
function to which different lookup flags (LOOKUP_FOLLOW or 0) are passed.
For me this reduced the stripped size of xattr.o from 8824 to 8248 bytes.

As it is, path_lookupat() and path_mounpoint() might end up leaking struct file

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are...
- percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain
GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.
This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
writeback IOs.
Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe0c
("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
just now.
- percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
directly.
- The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced
single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.
There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans
up the duplicate percpu accessors. That branch causes a number of
conflicts with s390 and other trees. I'll send a separate pull
request w/ resolutions once other branches are merged"

Increase the buffer-head per-CPU LRU size to allow efficient filesystem
operations that access many blocks for each transaction. For example,
creating a file in a large ext4 directory with quota enabled will access
multiple buffer heads and will overflow the LRU at the default 8-block LRU
size:
* parent directory inode table block (ctime, nlinks for subdirs)
* new inode bitmap
* inode table block
* 2 quota blocks
* directory leaf block (not reused, but pollutes one cache entry)
* 2 levels htree blocks (only one is reused, other pollutes cache)
* 2 levels indirect/index blocks (only one is reused)
The buffer-head per-CPU LRU size is raised to 16, as it shows in metadata
performance benchmarks up to 10% gain for create, 4% for lookup and 7% for
destroy.

Always mark pages with PageBalloon even if balloon compaction is disabled
and expose this mark in /proc/kpageflags as KPF_BALLOON.
Also this patch adds three counters into /proc/vmstat: "balloon_inflate",
"balloon_deflate" and "balloon_migrate". They accumulate balloon
activity. Current size of balloon is (balloon_inflate - balloon_deflate)
pages.
All generic balloon code now gathered under option CONFIG_MEMORY_BALLOON.
It should be selected by ballooning driver which wants use this feature.
Currently virtio-balloon is the only user.
