Change the type of page_idx to unsigned long, and rename it -- it's just
a loop counter, not a page index.

The word 'offset' is used ambiguously to mean 'byte offset within a
page', 'byte offset from the start of the file' and 'page offset from
the start of the file'.
Use 'index' to mean 'page offset from the start of the file' throughout
the readahead code.
[ We should probably rename the 'pgoff_t' type to 'pgidx_t' too - Linus ]

In this patch, only between __do_page_cache_readahead() and
read_pages(), but it will be extended in upcoming patches. The
read_pages() function becomes aops centric, as this makes the most sense

ondemand_readahead has two callers, neither of which use the return
value. That means that both ra_submit and __do_page_cache_readahead()
can return void, and we don't need to worry that a present page in the
readahead window causes us to return a smaller nr_pages than we ought to
have.
Similarly, no caller uses the return value from
force_page_cache_readahead().

The page cache offers the ability to search for a miss in the previous or
next N locations. Rather than teach the XArray about the page cache's
definition of a miss, use xas_prev() and xas_next() to search the page
array. This should be more efficient as it does not have to start the
lookup from the top for each index.

Introduce xarray value entries and tagged pointers to replace radix
tree exceptional entries. This is a slight change in encoding to allow
the use of an extra bit (we can now store BITS_PER_LONG - 1 bits in a
value entry). It is also a change in emphasis; exceptional entries are
intimidating and different. As the comment explains, you can choose
to store values or pointers in the xarray and they are both first-class
citizens.

The implementation of readahead(2) syscall is identical to that of
fadvise64(POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED) with a few exceptions:
1. readahead(2) returns -EINVAL for !mapping->a_ops and fadvise64()
ignores the request and returns 0.
2. fadvise64() checks for integer overflow corner case
3. fadvise64() calls the optional filesystem fadvise() file operation
Unite the two implementations by calling vfs_fadvise() from readahead(2)
syscall. Check the !mapping->a_ops in readahead(2) syscall to preserve
documented syscall ABI behaviour.

ondemand_readahead() checks bdi->io_pages to cap the maximum pages
that need to be processed. This works until the readit section. If
we would do an async only readahead (async size = sync size) and
target is at beginning of window we expand the pages by another
get_next_ra_size() pages. Btrace for large reads shows that kernel
always issues a doubled size read at the beginning of processing.
Add an additional check for io_pages in the lower part of the func.
The fix helps devices that hard limit bio pages and rely on proper
handling of max_hw_read_sectors (e.g. older FusionIO cards). For
that reason it could qualify for stable.

We noticed in testing we'd get pretty bad latency stalls under heavy
pressure because read ahead would try to do its thing while the cgroup
was under severe pressure. If we're under this much pressure we want to
do as little IO as possible so we can still make progress on real work
if we're a throttled cgroup, so just skip readahead if our group is
under pressure.

Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the
sys_readahead() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is
meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the
same calling convention as sys_readahead().
This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

We ran into a funky issue, where someone doing 256K buffered reads saw
128K requests at the device level. Turns out it is read-ahead capping
the request size, since we use 128K as the default setting. This
doesn't make a lot of sense - if someone is issuing 256K reads, they
should see 256K reads, regardless of the read-ahead setting, if the
underlying device can support a 256K read in a single command.
This patch introduces a bdi hint, io_pages. This is the soft max IO
size for the lower level, I've hooked it up to the bdev settings here.
Read-ahead is modified to issue the maximum of the user request size,
and the read-ahead max size, but capped to the max request size on the
device side. The latter is done to avoid reading ahead too much, if the
application asks for a huge read. With this patch, the kernel behaves
like the application expects.

For DAX inodes we need to be careful to never have page cache pages in
the mapping->page_tree. This radix tree should be composed only of DAX
exceptional entries and zero pages.
ltp's readahead02 test was triggering a warning because we were trying
to insert a DAX exceptional entry but found that a page cache page had
already been inserted into the tree. This page was being inserted into
the radix tree in response to a readahead(2) call.
Readahead doesn't make sense for DAX inodes, but we don't want it to
report a failure either. Instead, we just return success and don't do
any work.

Vladimir has noticed that we might declare memcg oom even during
readahead because read_pages only uses GFP_KERNEL (with mapping_gfp
restriction) while __do_page_cache_readahead uses
page_cache_alloc_readahead which adds __GFP_NORETRY to prevent from
OOMs. This gfp mask discrepancy is really unfortunate and easily
fixable. Drop page_cache_alloc_readahead() which only has one user and
outsource the gfp_mask logic into readahead_gfp_mask and propagate this
mask from __do_page_cache_readahead down to read_pages.
This alone would have only very limited impact as most filesystems are
implementing ->readpages and the common implementation mpage_readpages
does GFP_KERNEL (with mapping_gfp restriction) again. We can tell it to
use readahead_gfp_mask instead as this function is called only during
readahead as well. The same applies to read_cache_pages.
ext4 has its own ext4_mpage_readpages but the path which has pages !=
NULL can use the same gfp mask. Btrfs, cifs, f2fs and orangefs are
doing a very similar pattern to mpage_readpages so the same can be
applied to them as well.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

There are many places which use mapping_gfp_mask to restrict a more
generic gfp mask which would be used for allocations which are not
directly related to the page cache but they are performed in the same
context.

easier to track. This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.

Maximal readahead size is limited now by two values:
1) by global 2Mb constant (MAX_READAHEAD in max_sane_readahead())
2) by configurable per-device value* (bdi->ra_pages)
There are devices, which require custom readahead limit.
For instance, for RAIDs it's calculated as number of devices
multiplied by chunk size times 2.
Readahead size can never be larger than bdi->ra_pages * 2 value
(POSIX_FADV_SEQUNTIAL doubles readahead size).
If so, why do we need two limits?
I suggest to completely remove this max_sane_readahead() stuff and
use per-device readahead limit everywhere.
Also, using right readahead size for RAID disks can significantly
increase i/o performance:

Commit 6afdb859b710 ("mm: do not ignore mapping_gfp_mask in page cache
allocation paths") has caught some users of hardcoded GFP_KERNEL used in
the page cache allocation paths. This, however, wasn't complete and
there were others which went unnoticed.
Dave Chinner has reported the following deadlock for xfs on loop device:
: With the recent merge of the loop device changes, I'm now seeing
: XFS deadlock on my single CPU, 1GB RAM VM running xfs/073.
:
: The deadlocked is as follows:
:
: kloopd1: loop_queue_read_work
: xfs_file_iter_read
: lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_SHARED (on image file)
: page cache read (GFP_KERNEL)
: radix tree alloc
: memory reclaim
: reclaim XFS inodes
: log force to unpin inodes
: <wait for log IO completion>
:
: xfs-cil/loop1: <does log force IO work>
: xlog_cil_push
: xlog_write
: <loop issuing log writes>
: xlog_state_get_iclog_space()
: <blocks due to all log buffers under write io>
: <waits for IO completion>
:
: kloopd1: loop_queue_write_work
: xfs_file_write_iter
: lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL (on image file)
: <wait for inode to be unlocked>
:
: i.e. the kloopd, with it's split read and write work queues, has
: introduced a dependency through memory reclaim. i.e. that writes
: need to be able to progress for reads make progress.
:
: The problem, fundamentally, is that mpage_readpages() does a
: GFP_KERNEL allocation, rather than paying attention to the inode's
: mapping gfp mask, which is set to GFP_NOFS.
:
: The didn't used to happen, because the loop device used to issue
: reads through the splice path and that does:
:
: error = add_to_page_cache_lru(page, mapping, index,
: GFP_KERNEL & mapping_gfp_mask(mapping));
This has changed by commit aa4d86163e4 ("block: loop: switch to VFS
ITER_BVEC").
This patch changes mpage_readpage{s} to follow gfp mask set for the
mapping. There are, however, other places which are doing basically the
same.
lustre:ll_dir_filler is doing GFP_KERNEL from the function which
apparently uses GFP_NOFS for other allocations so let's make this
consistent.
cifs:readpages_get_pages is called from cifs_readpages and
__cifs_readpages_from_fscache called from the same path obeys mapping
gfp.
ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping is hardcoding GFP_KERNEL as well
regardless it uses mapping_gfp_mask for the page allocation.
ext4_mpage_readpages is the called from the page cache allocation path
same as read_pages and read_cache_pages
As I've noticed in my previous post I cannot say I would be happy about
sprinkling mapping_gfp_mask all over the place and it sounds like we
should drop gfp_mask argument altogether and use it internally in
__add_to_page_cache_locked that would require all the filesystems to use
mapping gfp consistently which I am not sure is the case here. From a
quick glance it seems that some file system use it all the time while
others are selective.

In several places, bdi_congested() and its wrappers are used to
determine whether more IOs should be issued. With cgroup writeback
support, this question can't be answered solely based on the bdi
(backing_dev_info). It's dependent on whether the filesystem and bdi
support cgroup writeback and the blkcg the inode is associated with.
This patch implements inode_congested() and its wrappers which take
@inode and determines the congestion state considering cgroup
writeback. The new functions replace bdi_*congested() calls in places
where the query is about specific inode and task.
There are several filesystem users which also fit this criteria but
they should be updated when each filesystem implements cgroup
writeback support.
v2: Now that a given inode is associated with only one wb, congestion
state can be determined independent from the asking task. Drop
@task. Spotted by Vivek. Also, converted to take @inode instead
of @mapping and renamed to inode_congested().

Now that we got rid of the bdi abuse on character devices we can always use
sb->s_bdi to get at the backing_dev_info for a file, except for the block
device special case. Export inode_to_bdi and replace uses of
mapping->backing_dev_info with it to prepare for the removal of
mapping->backing_dev_info.

readahead pages
Currently max_sane_readahead() returns zero on the cpu whose NUMA node
has no local memory which leads to readahead failure. Fix this
readahead failure by returning minimum of (requested pages, 512). Users
running applications on a memory-less cpu which needs readahead such as
streaming application see considerable boost in the performance.
Result:
fadvise experiment with FADV_WILLNEED on a PPC machine having memoryless
CPU with 1GB testfile (12 iterations) yielded around 46.66% improvement.
fadvise experiment with FADV_WILLNEED on a x240 machine with 1GB

shmem mappings already contain exceptional entries where swap slot
information is remembered.
To be able to store eviction information for regular page cache, prepare
every site dealing with the radix trees directly to handle entries other
than pages.
The common lookup functions will filter out non-page entries and return
NULL for page cache holes, just as before. But provide a raw version of
the API which returns non-page entries as well, and switch shmem over to
use it.

The radix tree hole searching code is only used for page cache, for
example the readahead code trying to get a a picture of the area
surrounding a fault.
It sufficed to rely on the radix tree definition of holes, which is
"empty tree slot". But this is about to change, though, as shadow page
descriptors will be stored in the page cache after the actual pages get
evicted from memory.
Move the functions over to mm/filemap.c and make them native page cache
operations, where they can later be adapted to handle the new definition
of "page cache hole".

Commit 63d0f0a3c7e1 ("mm/readahead.c:do_readhead(): don't check for
->readpage") unintentionally made do_readahead return 0 for all valid
files regardless of whether readahead was supported, rather than the
expected -EINVAL. This gets forwarded on to userspace, and results in
sys_readahead appearing to succeed in cases that don't make sense (e.g.
when called on pipes or sockets). This issue is detected by the LTP
readahead01 testcase.
As the exact return value of force_page_cache_readahead is currently
never used, we can simplify it to return only 0 or -EINVAL (when
readpage or readpages is missing). With that in place we can simply
forward on the return value of force_page_cache_readahead in
do_readahead.
This patch performs said change, restoring the expected semantics.

The kernel's readahead algorithm sometimes interprets random read
accesses as sequential and triggers unnecessary data prefecthing from
storage device (impacting random read average latency).
In order to identify sequential cache read misses, the readahead
algorithm intends to check whether offset - previous offset == 1
(trivial sequential reads) or offset - previous offset == 0 (sequential
reads not aligned on page boundary):
if (offset - (ra->prev_pos >> PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT) <= 1UL)
The current offset is stored in the "offset" variable of type "pgoff_t"
(unsigned long), while previous offset is stored in "ra->prev_pos" of
type "loff_t" (long long). Therefore, operands of the if statement are
implicitly converted to type long long. Consequently, when previous
offset > current offset (which happens on random pattern), the if
condition is true and access is wrongly interpeted as sequential. An
unnecessary data prefetching is triggered, impacting the average random
read latency.
Storing the previous offset value in a "pgoff_t" variable (unsigned
long) fixes the sequential read detection logic.

This helps performance on moderately dense random reads on SSD.
Transaction-Per-Second numbers provided by Taobao:
QPS case
-------------------------------------------------------
7536 disable context readahead totally
w/ patch: 7129 slower size rampup and start RA on the 3rd read
6717 slower size rampup
w/o patch: 5581 unmodified context readahead
Before, readahead will be started whenever reading page N+1 when it happen
to read N recently. After patch, we'll only start readahead when *three*
random reads happen to access pages N, N+1, N+2. The probability of this
happening is extremely low for pure random reads, unless they are very
dense, which actually deserves some readahead.
Also start with a smaller readahead window. The impact to interleaved
sequential reads should be small, because for a long run stream, the the
small readahead window rampup phase is negletable.
The context readahead actually benefits clustered random reads on HDD
whose seek cost is pretty high. However as SSD is increasingly used for
random read workloads it's better for the context readahead to concentrate
on interleaved sequential reads.
Another SSD rand read test from Miao
# file size: 2GB
# read IO amount: 625MB
sysbench --test=fileio \
--max-requests=10000 \
--num-threads=1 \
--file-num=1 \
--file-block-size=64K \
--file-test-mode=rndrd \
--file-fsync-freq=0 \
--file-fsync-end=off run
shows the performance of btrfs grows up from 69MB/s to 121MB/s, ext4 from
104MB/s to 121MB/s.

Currently there is no way to truncate partial page where the end
truncate point is not at the end of the page. This is because it was not
needed and the functionality was enough for file system truncate
operation to work properly. However more file systems now support punch
hole feature and it can benefit from mm supporting truncating page just
up to the certain point.
Specifically, with this functionality truncate_inode_pages_range() can
be changed so it supports truncating partial page at the end of the
range (currently it will BUG_ON() if 'end' is not at the end of the
page).
This commit changes the invalidatepage() address space operation
prototype to accept range to be invalidated and update all the instances
for it.
We also change the block_invalidatepage() in the same way and actually
make a use of the new length argument implementing range invalidation.
Actual file system implementations will follow except the file systems
where the changes are really simple and should not change the behaviour
in any way .Implementation for truncate_page_range() which will be able
to accept page unaligned ranges will follow as well.
