mm: merge folio_has_private()/filemap_release_folio() call pairs

2023-08-18T17:12:12+00:00

Patch series "mm, netfs, fscache: Stop read optimisation when folio
removed from pagecache", v7.

This fixes an optimisation in fscache whereby we don't read from the cache
for a particular file until we know that there's data there that we don't
have in the pagecache.  The problem is that I'm no longer using PG_fscache
(aka PG_private_2) to indicate that the page is cached and so I don't get
a notification when a cached page is dropped from the pagecache.

The first patch merges some folio_has_private() and
filemap_release_folio() pairs and introduces a helper,
folio_needs_release(), to indicate if a release is required.

The second patch is the actual fix.  Following Willy's suggestions[1], it
adds an AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag to an address_space that will make
filemap_release_folio() always call ->release_folio(), even if
PG_private/PG_private_2 aren't set.  folio_needs_release() is altered to
add a check for this.


This patch (of 2):

Make filemap_release_folio() check folio_has_private().  Then, in most
cases, where a call to folio_has_private() is immediately followed by a
call to filemap_release_folio(), we can get rid of the test in the pair.

There are a couple of sites in mm/vscan.c that this can't so easily be
done.  In shrink_folio_list(), there are actually three cases (something
different is done for incompletely invalidated buffers), but
filemap_release_folio() elides two of them.

In shrink_active_list(), we don't have have the folio lock yet, so the
check allows us to avoid locking the page unnecessarily.

A wrapper function to check if a folio needs release is provided for those
places that still need to do it in the mm/ directory.  This will acquire
additional parts to the condition in a future patch.

After this, the only remaining caller of folio_has_private() outside of
mm/ is a check in fuse.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

- Nick Piggin's "shoot lazy tlbs" series, to improve the peformance of
switching from a user process to a kernel thread.

- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang, Zhang Peng and Pankaj
Raghav.

- zsmalloc performance improvements from Sergey Senozhatsky.

- Yue Zhao has found and fixed some data race issues around the
alteration of memcg userspace tunables.

- VFS rationalizations from Christoph Hellwig:
- removal of most of the callers of write_one_page()
- make __filemap_get_folio()'s return value more useful

- Luis Chamberlain has changed tmpfs so it no longer requires swap
backing. Use `mount -o noswap'.

- Qi Zheng has made the slab shrinkers operate locklessly, providing
some scalability benefits.

- Keith Busch has improved dmapool's performance, making part of its
operations O(1) rather than O(n).

- Peter Xu adds the UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED feature to userfaultd,
permitting userspace to wr-protect anon memory unpopulated ptes.

- Kirill Shutemov has changed MAX_ORDER's meaning to be inclusive
rather than exclusive, and has fixed a bunch of errors which were
caused by its unintuitive meaning.

- Axel Rasmussen give userfaultfd the UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP feature,
which causes minor faults to install a write-protected pte.

- Vlastimil Babka has done some maintenance work on vma_merge():
cleanups to the kernel code and improvements to our userspace test
harness.

- Cleanups to do_fault_around() by Lorenzo Stoakes.

- Mike Rapoport has moved a lot of initialization code out of various
mm/ files and into mm/mm_init.c.

- Lorenzo Stoakes removd vmf_insert_mixed_prot(), which was added for
DRM, but DRM doesn't use it any more.

- Lorenzo has also coverted read_kcore() and vread() to use iterators
and has thereby removed the use of bounce buffers in some cases.

- Lorenzo has also contributed further cleanups of vma_merge().

- Chaitanya Prakash provides some fixes to the mmap selftesting code.

- Matthew Wilcox changes xfs and afs so they no longer take sleeping
locks in ->map_page(), a step towards RCUification of pagefaults.

- Suren Baghdasaryan has improved mmap_lock scalability by switching to
per-VMA locking.

- Frederic Weisbecker has reworked the percpu cache draining so that it
no longer causes latency glitches on cpu isolated workloads.

- Mike Rapoport cleans up and corrects the ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER Kconfig
logic.

- Liu Shixin has changed zswap's initialization so we no longer waste a
chunk of memory if zswap is not being used.

- Yosry Ahmed has improved the performance of memcg statistics
flushing.

- David Stevens has fixed several issues involving khugepaged,
userfaultfd and shmem.

- Christoph Hellwig has provided some cleanup work to zram's IO-related
code paths.

- David Hildenbrand has fixed up some issues in the selftest code's
testing of our pte state changing.

- Pankaj Raghav has made page_endio() unneeded and has removed it.

- Peter Xu contributed some rationalizations of the userfaultfd
selftests.

- Yosry Ahmed has fixed an issue around memcg's page recalim
accounting.

- Chaitanya Prakash has fixed some arm-related issues in the
selftests/mm code.

- Longlong Xia has improved the way in which KSM handles hwpoisoned
pages.

- Peter Xu fixes a few issues with uffd-wp at fork() time.

- Stefan Roesch has changed KSM so that it may now be used on a
per-process and per-cgroup basis.

ext4: Convert mext_page_mkuptodate() to take a folio

2023-04-06T17:39:52+00:00

Use a folio throughout.  Does not support large folios due to
an array sized for MAX_BUF_PER_PAGE, but it does remove a few
calls to compound_head().

fs: Add FGP_WRITEBEGIN

2023-04-06T17:39:50+00:00

This particular combination of flags is used by most filesystems
in their ->write_begin method, although it does find use in a
few other places.  Before folios, it warranted its own function
(grab_cache_page_write_begin()), but I think that just having specialised
flags is enough.  It certainly helps the few places that have been
converted from grab_cache_page_write_begin() to __filemap_get_folio().

mm: return an ERR_PTR from __filemap_get_folio

2023-04-06T02:42:42+00:00

Instead of returning NULL for all errors, distinguish between:

 - no entry found and not asked to allocated (-ENOENT)
 - failed to allocate memory (-ENOMEM)
 - would block (-EAGAIN)

so that callers don't have to guess the error based on the passed in
flags.

Also pass through the error through the direct callers: filemap_get_folio,
filemap_lock_folio filemap_grab_folio and filemap_get_incore_folio.

ext4: convert move_extent_per_page() to use folios

2022-11-30T23:59:02+00:00

Patch series "Removing the try_to_release_page() wrapper", v3.

This patchset replaces the remaining calls of try_to_release_page() with
the folio equivalent: filemap_release_folio().  This allows us to remove
the wrapper.


This patch (of 4):

Convert move_extent_per_page() to use folios.  This change removes 5 calls
to compound_head() and is in preparation for the removal of the
try_to_release_page() wrapper.
