In netfs_perform_write(), when the file is marked NETFS_ICTX_WRITETHROUGH
or O_*SYNC or RWF_*SYNC was specified, write-through caching is performed
on a buffered file. When setting up for write-through, we flush any
conflicting writes in the region and wait for the write to complete,
failing if there's a write error to return.
The issue arises if we're writing at or above the EOF position because we
skip the flush and - more importantly - the wait. This becomes a problem
if there's a partial folio at the end of the file that is being written out
and we want to make a write to it too. Both the already-running write and
the write we start both want to clear the writeback mark, but whoever is
second causes a warning looking something like:
------------[ cut here ]------------
R=00000012: folio 11 is not under writeback

RIP: 0010:netfs_writeback_lookup_folio
Fix this by making the flush-and-wait unconditional. It will do nothing if
there are no folios in the pagecache and will return quickly if there are
no folios in the region specified.
Further, move the WBC attachment above the flush call as the flush is going
to attach a WBC and detach it again if it is not present - and since we
need one anyway we might as well share it.

Fix netfs_unbuffered_write_iter() to return immediately if
generic_write_checks() returns 0, indicating there's nothing to write.
Note that netfs_file_write_iter() already does this.
Also, whilst we're at it, put in checks for the size being zero before we
even take the locks. Note that generic_write_checks() can still reduce the
size to zero, so we still need that check.
Without this, a warning similar to the following is logged to dmesg:
netfs: Zero-sized write [R=1b6da]
and the syscall fails with EIO, e.g.:
/sbin/ldconfig.real: Writing of cache extension data failed: Input/output error

If netfs_begin_read gets a NETFS_DIO_READ request that begins
past i_size, it won't perform any i/o and just return 0. This
will leak an increment to i_dio_count that is done at the top
of the function.
This can cause subsequent buffered read requests to block
indefinitely, waiting for a non existing dio operation to complete.
Add a inode_dio_end() for the NETFS_DIO_READ case, before returning.

Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This extends the netfs helper library that network filesystems can use
to replace their own implementations. Both afs and 9p are ported. cifs
is ready as well but the patches are way bigger and will be routed
separately once this is merged. That will remove lots of code as well.
The overal goal is to get high-level I/O and knowledge of the page
cache and ouf of the filesystem drivers. This includes knowledge about
the existence of pages and folios
The pull request converts afs and 9p. This removes about 800 lines of
code from afs and 300 from 9p. For 9p it is now possible to do writes
in larger than a page chunks. Additionally, multipage folio support
can be turned on for 9p. Separate patches exist for cifs removing
another 2000+ lines. I've included detailed information in the
individual pulls I took.
Summary:
- Add NFS-style (and Ceph-style) locking around DIO vs buffered I/O
calls to prevent these from happening at the same time.
- Support for direct and unbuffered I/O.
- Support for write-through caching in the page cache.
- O_*SYNC and RWF_*SYNC writes use write-through rather than writing
to the page cache and then flushing afterwards.
- Support for write-streaming.
- Support for write grouping.
- Skip reads for which the server could only return zeros or EOF.
- The fscache module is now part of the netfs library and the
corresponding maintainer entry is updated.
- Some helpers from the fscache subsystem are renamed to mark them as
belonging to the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the 9p conversion"

In the loop in netfs_rreq_unmark_after_write() that removes the PG_fscache
from folios after they've been written to the cache, as soon as we remove
the mark from a multipage folio, it can get split - and then we might see a
fragment of folio again.
Guard against this by advancing the 'unlocked' tracker to the index of the
last page in the folio to avoid a double removal of the PG_fscache mark.

An issue can occur between write-streaming (storing dirty data in partial
non-uptodate pages) and a cachefiles object being culled to make space.
The problem occurs because the cache object is only marked in use while
there are files open using it. Once it has been released, it can be culled
and the cookie marked disabled.
At this point, a streaming write is permitted to occur (if the cache is
active, we require pages to be prefetched and cached), but the cache can
become active again before this gets flushed out - and then two effects can
occur:
(1) The cache may be asked to write out a region that's less than its DIO
block size (assumed by cachefiles to be PAGE_SIZE) - and this causes
one of two debugging statements to be emitted.
(2) netfs_how_to_modify() gets confused because it sees a page that isn't
allowed to be non-uptodate being uptodate and tries to prefetch it -
leading to a warning that PG_fscache is set twice.
Fix this by the following means:
(1) Add a netfs_inode flag to disallow write-streaming to an inode and set
it if we ever do local caching of that inode. It remains set for the
lifetime of that inode - even if the cookie becomes disabled.
(2) If the no-write-streaming flag is set, then make netfs_how_to_modify()
always want to prefetch instead.
(3) If netfs_how_to_modify() decides it wants to prefetch a folio, but
that folio has write-streamed data in it, then it requires the folio
be flushed first.
(4) Export a counter of the number of times we wanted to prefetch a
non-uptodate page, but found it had write-streamed data in it.
(5) Export a counter of the number of times we cancelled a write to the
cache because it didn't DIO align and remove the debug statements.

Track the file position above which the server is not expected to have any
data (the "zero point") and preemptively assume that we can satisfy
requests by filling them with zeroes locally rather than attempting to
download them if they're over that line - even if we've written data back
to the server. Assume that any data that was written back above that
position is held in the local cache. Note that we have to split requests
that straddle the line.
Make use of this to optimise away some reads from the server. We need to
set the zero point in the following circumstances:
(1) When we see an extant remote inode and have no cache for it, we set
the zero_point to i_size.
(2) On local inode creation, we set zero_point to 0.
(3) On local truncation down, we reduce zero_point to the new i_size if
the new i_size is lower.
(4) On local truncation up, we don't change zero_point.
(5) On local modification, we don't change zero_point.
(6) On remote invalidation, we set zero_point to the new i_size.
(7) If stored data is discarded from the pagecache or culled from fscache,
we must set zero_point above that if the data also got written to the
server.
(8) If dirty data is written back to the server, but not fscache, we must
set zero_point above that.
(9) If a direct I/O write is made, set zero_point above that.
Assuming the above, any read from the server at or above the zero_point
position will return all zeroes.
The zero_point value can be stored in the cache, provided the above rules
are applied to it by any code that culls part of the local cache.

Provide a flag whereby a filesystem may request that cifs_perform_write()
perform write-through caching. This involves putting pages directly into
writeback rather than dirty and attaching them to a write operation as we
go.
Further, the writes being made are limited to the byte range being written
rather than whole folios being written. This can be used by cifs, for
example, to deal with strict byte-range locking.
This can't be used with content encryption as that may require expansion of
the write RPC beyond the write being made.
This doesn't affect writes via mmap - those are written back in the normal
way; similarly failed writethrough writes are marked dirty and left to
writeback to retry. Another option would be to simply invalidate them, but
the contents can be simultaneously accessed by read() and through mmap.

Implement support for unbuffered and DIO reads in the netfs library,
utilising the existing read helper code to do block splitting and
individual queuing. The code also handles extraction of the destination
buffer from the supplied iterator, allowing async unbuffered reads to take
place.
The read will be split up according to the rsize setting and, if supplied,
the ->clamp_length() method. Note that the next subrequest will be issued
as soon as issue_op returns, without waiting for previous ones to finish.
The network filesystem needs to pause or handle queuing them if it doesn't
want to fire them all at the server simultaneously.
Once all the subrequests have finished, the state will be assessed and the
amount of data to be indicated as having being obtained will be
determined. As the subrequests may finish in any order, if an intermediate
subrequest is short, any further subrequests may be copied into the buffer
and then abandoned.
In the future, this will also take care of doing an unbuffered read from
encrypted content, with the decryption being done by the library.

netfs_read_folio() needs to handle partially-valid pages that are marked
dirty, but not uptodate in the event that someone tries to read a page was
used to cache data by a streaming write.
In such a case, make netfs_read_folio() set up a bvec iterator that points
to the parts of the folio that need filling and to a sink page for the data
that should be discarded and use that instead of i_pages as the iterator to
be written to.
This requires netfs_rreq_unlock_folios() to convert the page into a normal
dirty uptodate page, getting rid of the partial write record and bumping
the group pointer over to folio->private.

Provide a netfs write helper, netfs_perform_write() to buffer data to be
written in the pagecache and mark the modified folios dirty.
It will perform "streaming writes" for folios that aren't currently
resident, if possible, storing data in partially modified folios that are
marked dirty, but not uptodate. It will also tag pages as belonging to
fs-specific write groups if so directed by the filesystem.
This is derived from generic_perform_write(), but doesn't use
->write_begin() and ->write_end(), having that logic rolled in instead.

Dispatch one or more write reqeusts to process a writeback slice, where a
slice is tailored more to logical block divisions within the file (such as
crypto blocks, an object layout or cache granules) than the protocol RPC
maximum capacity.
The dispatch doesn't happen until throttling allows, at which point the
entire writeback slice is processed and queued. A slice may be written to
multiple destinations (one or more servers and the local cache) and the
writes to each destination might be split up along different lines.
The writeback slice holds the required folios pinned. An iov_iter is
provided in netfs_write_request that describes the buffer to be used. This
may be part of the pagecache, may have auxiliary padding pages attached or
may be a bounce buffer resulting from crypto or compression. Consequently,
the filesystem must not twiddle the folio markings directly.
The following API is available to the filesystem:
(1) The ->create_write_requests() method is called to ask the filesystem
to create the requests it needs. This is passed the writeback slice
to be processed.
(2) The filesystem should then call netfs_create_write_request() to create
the requests it needs.
(3) Once a request is initialised, netfs_queue_write_request() can be
called to dispatch it asynchronously, if not completed immediately.
(4) netfs_write_request_completed() should be called to note the
completion of a request.
(5) netfs_get_write_request() and netfs_put_write_request() are provided
to refcount a request. These take constants from the netfs_wreq_trace
enum for logging into ftrace.

Prepare to use folio->private to hold information write grouping and
streaming write. These are implemented in the same commit as they both
make use of folio->private and will be both checked at the same time in
several places.
"Write grouping" involves ordering the writeback of groups of writes, such
as is needed for ceph snaps. A group is represented by a
filesystem-supplied object which must contain a netfs_group struct. This
contains just a refcount and a pointer to a destructor.
"Streaming write" is the storage of data in folios that are marked dirty,
but not uptodate, to avoid unnecessary reads of data. This is represented
by a netfs_folio struct. This contains the offset and length of the
modified region plus the otherwise displaced write grouping pointer.
The way folio->private is multiplexed is:
(1) If private is NULL then neither is in operation on a dirty folio.
(2) If private is set, with bit 0 clear, then this points to a group.
(3) If private is set, with bit 0 set, then this points to a netfs_folio
struct (with bit 0 AND'ed out).

Modify the netfs_io_request struct to act as a point around which writes
can be coordinated. It represents and pins a range of pages that need
writing and a list of regions of dirty data in that range of pages.
If RMW is required, the original data can be downloaded into the bounce
buffer, decrypted if necessary, the modifications made, then the modified
data can be reencrypted/recompressed and sent back to the server.

Add a bvec array pointer and an iterator to netfs_io_request for either
holding a copy of a DIO iterator or a list of all the bits of buffer
pointed to by a DIO iterator.
There are two problems: Firstly, if an iovec-class iov_iter is passed to
->read_iter() or ->write_iter(), this cannot be passed directly to
kernel_sendmsg() or kernel_recvmsg() as that may cause locking recursion if
a fault is generated, so we need to keep track of the pages involved
separately.
Secondly, if the I/O is asynchronous, we must copy the iov_iter describing
the buffer before returning to the caller as it may be immediately
deallocated.

Add three iov_iter structs:
(1) Add an iov_iter (->iter) to the I/O request to describe the
unencrypted-side buffer.
(2) Add an iov_iter (->io_iter) to the I/O request to describe the
encrypted-side I/O buffer. This may be a different size to the buffer
in (1).
(3) Add an iov_iter (->io_iter) to the I/O subrequest to describe the part
of the I/O buffer for that subrequest.
This will allow future patches to point to a bounce buffer instead for
purposes of handling oversize writes, decryption (where we want to save the
encrypted data to the cache) and decompression.
These iov_iters persist for the lifetime of the (sub)request, and so can be
accessed multiple times without worrying about them being deallocated upon
return to the caller.
The network filesystem must appropriately advance the iterator before
terminating the request.

Move the resource pinning-for-writeback from fscache code to netfslib code.
This is used to keep a cache backing object pinned whilst we have dirty
pages on the netfs inode in the pagecache such that VM writeback will be
able to reach it.
Whilst we're at it, switch the parameters of netfs_unpin_writeback() to
match ->write_inode() so that it can be used for that directly.
Note that this mechanism could be more generically useful than that for
network filesystems. Quite often they have to keep around other resources
(e.g. authentication tokens or network connections) until the writeback is
complete.

There's a problem with dependencies between netfslib and fscache as each
wants to access some functions of the other. Deal with this by moving
fs/fscache/* into fs/netfs/ and renaming those files to begin with
"fscache-".
For the moment, the moved files are changed as little as possible and an
fscache module is still built. A subsequent patch will integrate them.

If a network filesystem using netfs implements a clamp_length()
function, it can set subrequest lengths smaller than a page size.
When we loop through the folios in netfs_rreq_unlock_folios() to
set any folios to be written back, we need to make sure we only
call folio_start_fscache() once for each folio.
Otherwise, this simple testcase:
mount -o fsc,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 127.0.0.1:/export /mnt/nfs
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/nfs/file.bin bs=4096 count=1
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
4096 bytes (4.1 kB, 4.0 KiB) copied, 0.0126359 s, 324 kB/s
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
cat /mnt/nfs/file.bin > /dev/null
will trigger an oops similar to the following:
page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_private_2(folio))
