writeback: move wb_over_bg_thresh() call outside lock section
Patch series "cgroup: eliminate atomic rstat flushing", v5.
A previous patch series [1] changed most atomic rstat flushing contexts to
become non-atomic. This was done to avoid an expensive operation that
scales with # cgroups and # cpus to happen with irqs disabled and
scheduling not permitted. There were two remaining atomic flushing
contexts after that series. This series tries to eliminate them as well,
eliminating atomic rstat flushing completely.
The two remaining atomic flushing contexts are:
(a) wb_over_bg_thresh()->mem_cgroup_wb_stats()
(b) mem_cgroup_threshold()->mem_cgroup_usage()
For (a), flushing needs to be atomic as wb_writeback() calls
wb_over_bg_thresh() with a spinlock held. However, it seems like the call
to wb_over_bg_thresh() doesn't need to be protected by that spinlock, so
this series proposes a refactoring that moves the call outside the lock
criticial section and makes the stats flushing in mem_cgroup_wb_stats()
non-atomic.
For (b), flushing needs to be atomic as mem_cgroup_threshold() is called
with irqs disabled. We only flush the stats when calculating the root
usage, as it is approximated as the sum of some memcg stats (file, anon,
and optionally swap) instead of the conventional page counter. This
series proposes changing this calculation to use the global stats instead,
eliminating the need for a memcg stat flush.
After these 2 contexts are eliminated, we no longer need
mem_cgroup_flush_stats_atomic() or cgroup_rstat_flush_atomic(). We can
remove them and simplify the code.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230330191801.1967435-1-yosryahmed@google.com/
This patch (of 5):
wb_over_bg_thresh() calls mem_cgroup_wb_stats() which invokes an rstat
flush, which can be expensive on large systems. Currently,
wb_writeback() calls wb_over_bg_thresh() within a lock section, so we
have to do the rstat flush atomically. On systems with a lot of
cpus and/or cgroups, this can cause us to disable irqs for a long time,
potentially causing problems.
Move the call to wb_over_bg_thresh() outside the lock section in
preparation to make the rstat flush in mem_cgroup_wb_stats() non-atomic.
The list_empty(&wb->work_list) check should be okay outside the lock
section of wb->list_lock as it is protected by a separate lock
(wb->work_lock), and wb_over_bg_thresh() doesn't seem like it is
modifying any of wb->b_* lists the wb->list_lock is protecting.
Also, the loop seems to be already releasing and reacquring the
lock, so this refactoring looks safe.

Tested: xfstests
After commit cbfecb927f42 ("fs: record I_DIRTY_TIME even if inode
already has I_DIRTY_INODE") writeback_single_inode can push inode with
I_DIRTY_TIME set to b_dirty_time list. In case of freeing inode with
I_DIRTY_TIME set this can happen after deletion of inode from i_io_list
at evict. Stack trace is following.
evict
fat_evict_inode
fat_truncate_blocks
fat_flush_inodes
writeback_inode
sync_inode_metadata(inode, sync=0)
writeback_single_inode(inode, wbc) <- wbc->sync_mode == WB_SYNC_NONE
This will lead to use after free in flusher thread.
Similar issue can be triggered if writeback_single_inode in the
stack trace update inode->i_io_list. Add explicit check to avoid it.

Currently the I_DIRTY_TIME will never get set if the inode already has
I_DIRTY_INODE with assumption that it supersedes I_DIRTY_TIME. That's
true, however ext4 will only update the on-disk inode in
->dirty_inode(), not on actual writeback. As a result if the inode
already has I_DIRTY_INODE state by the time we get to
__mark_inode_dirty() only with I_DIRTY_TIME, the time was already filled
into on-disk inode and will not get updated until the next I_DIRTY_INODE
update, which might never come if we crash or get a power failure.
The problem can be reproduced on ext4 by running xfstest generic/622
with -o iversion mount option.
Fix it by allowing I_DIRTY_TIME to be set even if the inode already has
I_DIRTY_INODE. Also make sure that the case is properly handled in
writeback_single_inode() as well. Additionally changes in
xfs_fs_dirty_inode() was made to accommodate for I_DIRTY_TIME in flag.
Thanks Jan Kara for suggestions on how to make this work properly.

We have run into an issue that a task gets stuck in
balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() when perform I/O stress testing.
The reason we observed is that an I_DIRTY_PAGES inode with lots
of dirty pages is in b_dirty_time list and standard background
writeback cannot writeback the inode.
After studing the relevant code, the following scenario may lead
to the issue:
task1 task2
----- -----
fuse_flush
write_inode_now //in b_dirty_time
writeback_single_inode
__writeback_single_inode
fuse_write_end
filemap_dirty_folio
__xa_set_mark:PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY
lock inode->i_lock
if mapping tagged PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY
inode->i_state |= I_DIRTY_PAGES
unlock inode->i_lock
__mark_inode_dirty:I_DIRTY_PAGES
lock inode->i_lock
-was dirty,inode stays in
-b_dirty_time
unlock inode->i_lock
if(!(inode->i_state & I_DIRTY_All))
-not true,so nothing done
This patch moves the dirty inode to b_dirty list when the inode
currently is not queued in b_io or b_more_io list at the end of
writeback_single_inode.

atomic64_add(i, v)
// trigger null-ptr-deref
bdi_split_work_to_wbs() traverses &bdi->wb_list to split work into all
wbs. If the allocation of new work fails, the on-stack fallback will be
used and the reference count of the current wb is increased afterwards.
If cgroup writeback membership switches occur before getting the reference
count and the current wb is released as old_wd, then calling wb_get() or
wb_put() will trigger the null pointer dereference above.
This issue was introduced in v4.3-rc7 (see fix tag1). Both
sync_inodes_sb() and __writeback_inodes_sb_nr() calls to
bdi_split_work_to_wbs() can trigger this issue. For scenarios called via
sync_inodes_sb(), originally commit 7fc5854f8c ("writeback: synchronize
sync(2) against cgroup writeback membership switches") reduced the
possibility of the issue by adding wb_switch_rwsem, but in v5.14-rc1 (see
fix tag2) removed the "inode_io_list_del_locked(inode, old_wb)" from
inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() so that wb->state contains WB_has_dirty_io,
thus old_wb is not skipped when traversing wbs in bdi_split_work_to_wbs(),
and the issue becomes easily reproducible again.
To solve this problem, percpu_ref_exit() is called under RCU protection to
avoid race between cgwb_release_workfn() and bdi_split_work_to_wbs().
Moreover, replace wb_get() with wb_tryget() in bdi_split_work_to_wbs(),
and skip the current wb if wb_tryget() fails because the wb has already
been shutdown.

writeback: Add asserts for adding freed inode to lists
In the past we had several use-after-free issues with inodes getting
added to writeback lists after evict() removed them. These are painful
to debug so add some asserts to catch the problem earlier. The only
non-obvious change in the commit is that we need to tweak
redirty_tail_locked() to avoid triggering assertion in
inode_io_list_move_locked().

writeback: avoid use-after-free after removing device
When a disk is removed, bdi_unregister gets called to stop further
writeback and wait for associated delayed work to complete. However,
wb_inode_writeback_end() may schedule bandwidth estimation dwork after
this has completed, which can result in the timer attempting to access the
just freed bdi_writeback.
Fix this by checking if the bdi_writeback is alive, similar to when
scheduling writeback work.
Since this requires wb->work_lock, and wb_inode_writeback_end() may get
called from interrupt, switch wb->work_lock to an irqsafe lock.

writeback: Fix inode->i_io_list not be protected by inode->i_lock error
Commit b35250c081 ("writeback: Protect inode->i_io_list with

wb->list_lock but also inode->i_lock, but inode_io_list_move_locked()
was missed. Add lock there and also update comment describing
things protected by inode->i_lock. This also fixes a race where
__mark_inode_dirty() could move inode under flush worker's hands
and thus sync(2) could miss writing some inodes.

mm/fs: delete PF_SWAPWRITE
PF_SWAPWRITE has been redundant since v3.2 commit ee72886d8e ("mm:
vmscan: do not writeback filesystem pages in direct reclaim").
Coincidentally, NeilBrown's current patch "remove inode_congested()"
deletes may_write_to_inode(), which appeared to be the one function which
took notice of PF_SWAPWRITE. But if you study the old logic, and the
conditions under which may_write_to_inode() was called, you discover that
flag and function have been pointless for a decade.

remove inode_congested()
inode_congested() reports if the backing-device for the inode is
congested. No bdi reports congestion any more, so this always returns
'false'.
So remove inode_congested() and related functions, and remove the call
sites, assuming that inode_congested() always returns 'false'.

commit 08276bdae68b022a7726edf7416b6748e3df5395
Author: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: Wed Oct 20 23:50:01 2021 +0100
vfs, fscache: Implement pinning of cache usage for writeback
Cachefiles has a problem in that it needs to keep the backing file for a
cookie open whilst there are local modifications pending that need to be
written to it. However, we don't want to keep the file open indefinitely,
as that causes EMFILE/ENFILE/ENOMEM problems.
Reopening the cache file, however, is a problem if this is being done due
to writeback triggered by exit(). Some filesystems will oops if we try to
open a file in that context because they want to access current->fs or
other resources that have already been dismantled.
To get around this, I added the following:
(1) An inode flag, I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB, to be set on a network filesystem
inode to indicate that we have a usage count on the cookie caching
that inode.
(2) A flag in struct writeback_control, unpinned_fscache_wb, that is set
when __writeback_single_inode() clears the last dirty page from
i_pages - at which point it clears I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and sets this
flag.
This has to be done here so that clearing I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB can be
done atomically with the check of PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY that clears
I_DIRTY_PAGES.
(3) A function, fscache_set_page_dirty(), which if it is not set, sets
I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and calls fscache_use_cookie() to pin the cache
resources.
(4) A function, fscache_unpin_writeback(), to be called by ->write_inode()
to unuse the cookie.
(5) A function, fscache_clear_inode_writeback(), to be called when the
inode is evicted, before clear_inode() is called. This cleans up any
lingering I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB.
The network filesystem can then use these tools to make sure that
fscache_write_to_cache() can write locally modified data to the cache as
well as to the server.
For the future, I'm working on write helpers for netfs lib that should
allow this facility to be removed by keeping track of the dirty regions
separately - but that's incomplete at the moment and is also going to be
affected by folios, one way or another, since it deals with pages

writeback: memcg: simplify cgroup_writeback_by_id
Currently cgroup_writeback_by_id calls mem_cgroup_wb_stats() to get dirty
pages for a memcg. However mem_cgroup_wb_stats() does a lot more than
just get the number of dirty pages. Just directly get the number of dirty
pages instead of calling mem_cgroup_wb_stats(). Also
cgroup_writeback_by_id() is only called for best-effort dirty flushing, so
remove the unused 'nr' parameter and no need to explicitly flush memcg
stats.

writeback: reliably update bandwidth estimation
Currently we trigger writeback bandwidth estimation from
balance_dirty_pages() and from wb_writeback(). However neither of these
need to trigger when the system is relatively idle and writeback is
triggered e.g. from fsync(2). Make sure writeback estimates happen
reliably by triggering them from do_writepages().

writeback: track number of inodes under writeback
Patch series "writeback: Fix bandwidth estimates", v4.
Fix estimate of writeback throughput when device is not fully busy doing
writeback. Michael Stapelberg has reported that such workload (e.g.
generated by linking) tends to push estimated throughput down to 0 and as
a result writeback on the device is practically stalled.
The first three patches fix the reported issue, the remaining two patches
are unrelated cleanups of problems I've noticed when reading the code.
This patch (of 4):
Track number of inodes under writeback for each bdi_writeback structure.
We will use this to decide whether wb does any IO and so we can estimate
its writeback throughput. In principle we could use number of pages under
writeback (WB_WRITEBACK counter) for this however normal percpu counter
reads are too inaccurate for our purposes and summing the counter is too
expensive.

Asynchronously try to release dying cgwbs by switching attached inodes to
the nearest living ancestor wb. It helps to get rid of per-cgroup
writeback structures themselves and of pinned memory and block cgroups,
which are significantly larger structures (mostly due to large per-cpu
statistics data). This prevents memory waste and helps to avoid different
scalability problems caused by large piles of dying cgroups.
Reuse the existing mechanism of inode switching used for foreign inode
detection. To speed things up batch up to 115 inode switching in a single
operation (the maximum number is selected so that the resulting struct
inode_switch_wbs_context can fit into 1024 bytes). Because every
switching consists of two steps divided by an RCU grace period, it would
be too slow without batching. Please note that the whole batch counts as
a single operation (when increasing/decreasing isw_nr_in_flight). This
allows to keep umounting working (flush the switching queue), however
prevents cleanups from consuming the whole switching quota and effectively
blocking the frn switching.
A cgwb cleanup operation can fail due to different reasons (e.g. not

Currently only a single inode can be switched to another writeback
structure at once. That means to switch an inode a separate
inode_switch_wbs_context structure must be allocated, and a separate rcu
callback and work must be scheduled.
It's fine for the existing ad-hoc switching, which is not happening that
often, but sub-optimal for massive switching required in order to release
a writeback structure. To prepare for it, let's add a support for
switching multiple inodes at once.
Instead of containing a single inode pointer, inode_switch_wbs_context
will contain a NULL-terminated array of inode pointers.
inode_do_switch_wbs() will be called for each inode.
To optimize the locking bdi->wb_switch_rwsem, old_wb's and new_wb's
list_locks will be acquired and released only once altogether for all
inodes. wb_wakeup() will be also be called only once. Instead of calling
wb_put(old_wb) after each successful switch, wb_put_many() is introduced
and used.

Currently there is no way to iterate over inodes attached to a specific
cgwb structure. It limits the ability to efficiently reclaim the
writeback structure itself and associated memory and block cgroup
structures without scanning all inodes belonging to a sb, which can be
prohibitively expensive.
While dirty/in-active-writeback an inode belongs to one of the
bdi_writeback's io lists: b_dirty, b_io, b_more_io and b_dirty_time. Once
cleaned up, it's removed from all io lists. So the inode->i_io_list can
be reused to maintain the list of inodes, attached to a bdi_writeback
structure.
This patch introduces a new wb->b_attached list, which contains all inodes
which were dirty at least once and are attached to the given cgwb. Inodes
attached to the root bdi_writeback structures are never placed on such
list. The following patch will use this list to try to release cgwbs
structures more efficiently.

Inode's wb switching requires two steps divided by an RCU grace period.
It's currently implemented as an RCU callback inode_switch_wbs_rcu_fn(),
which schedules inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() as a work.
Switching to the rcu_work API allows to do the same in a cleaner and
slightly shorter form.

isw_nr_in_flight is used to determine whether the inode switch queue
should be flushed from the umount path. Currently it's increased after
grabbing an inode and even scheduling the switch work. It means the
umount path can walk past cleanup_offline_cgwb() with active inode
references, which can result in a "Busy inodes after unmount." message and
use-after-free issues (with inode->i_sb which gets freed).
Fix it by incrementing isw_nr_in_flight before doing anything with the
inode and decrementing in the case when switching wasn't scheduled.
The problem hasn't yet been seen in the real life and was discovered by
Jan Kara by looking into the code.

Patch series "cgroup, blkcg: prevent dirty inodes to pin dying memory cgroups", v9.
When an inode is getting dirty for the first time it's associated with a
wb structure (see __inode_attach_wb()). It can later be switched to
another wb (if e.g. some other cgroup is writing a lot of data to the
same inode), but otherwise stays attached to the original wb until being
reclaimed.
The problem is that the wb structure holds a reference to the original
memory and blkcg cgroups. So if an inode has been dirty once and later is
actively used in read-only mode, it has a good chance to pin down the
original memory and blkcg cgroups forever. This is often the case with
services bringing data for other services, e.g. updating some rpm
packages.
In the real life it becomes a problem due to a large size of the memcg
structure, which can easily be 1000x larger than an inode. Also a really
large number of dying cgroups can raise different scalability issues, e.g.
making the memory reclaim costly and less effective.
To solve the problem inodes should be eventually detached from the
corresponding writeback structure. It's inefficient to do it after every
writeback completion. Instead it can be done whenever the original memory
cgroup is offlined and writeback structure is getting killed. Scanning
over a (potentially long) list of inodes and detach them from the
writeback structure can take quite some time. To avoid scanning all
inodes, attached inodes are kept on a new list (b_attached). To make it
less noticeable to a user, the scanning and switching is performed from a
work context.
Big thanks to Jan Kara, Dennis Zhou, Hillf Danton and Tejun Heo for their
ideas and contribution to this patchset.
This patch (of 8):
If an inode's state has I_WILL_FREE flag set, the inode will be freed
soon, so there is no point in trying to switch the inode to a different
cgwb.
I_WILL_FREE was ignored since the introduction of the inode switching, so
it looks like it doesn't lead to any noticeable issues for a user. This
is why the patch is not intended for a stable backport.

The caller of wb_get_create() should pin the memcg, because
wb_get_create() relies on this guarantee. The rcu read lock
only can guarantee that the memcg css returned by css_from_id()
cannot be released, but the reference of the memcg can be zero.
rcu_read_lock()
memcg_css = css_from_id()
wb_get_create(memcg_css)
cgwb_create(memcg_css)
// css_get can change the ref counter from 0 back to 1
css_get(memcg_css)
rcu_read_unlock()
Fix it by holding a reference to the css before calling
wb_get_create(). This is not a problem I encountered in the
real world. Just the result of a code review.

block_dump is an old debugging interface, one of it's functions is used
to print the information about who write which file on disk. If we
enable block_dump through /proc/sys/vm/block_dump and turn on debug log
level, we can gather information about write process name, target file
name and disk from kernel message. This feature is realized in
block_dump___mark_inode_dirty(), it print above information into kernel
message directly when marking inode dirty, so it is noisy and can easily
trigger log storm. At the same time, get the dentry refcount is also not
safe, we found it will lead to deadlock on ext4 file system with
data=journal mode.
After tracepoints has been introduced into the kernel, we got a
tracepoint in __mark_inode_dirty(), which is a better replacement of
block_dump___mark_inode_dirty(). The only downside is that it only trace
the inode number and not a file name, but it probably doesn't matter
because the original printed file name in block_dump is not accurate in
some cases, and we can still find it through the inode number and device
id. So this patch delete the dirting inode part of block_dump feature.

->dirty_inode is now only called when I_DIRTY_INODE (I_DIRTY_SYNC and/or
I_DIRTY_DATASYNC) is set. However it may still be passed other dirty
flags at the same time, provided that these other flags happened to be
passed to __mark_inode_dirty() at the same time as I_DIRTY_INODE.
This doesn't make sense because there is no reason for filesystems to
care about these extra flags. Nor are filesystems notified about all
updates to these other flags.
Therefore, mask the flags before passing them to ->dirty_inode.
Also properly document ->dirty_inode in vfs.rst.

There is no need to call ->dirty_inode for lazytime timestamp updates
(i.e. for __mark_inode_dirty(I_DIRTY_TIME)), since by the definition of
lazytime, filesystems must ignore these updates. Filesystems only need
to care about the updated timestamps when they expire.
Therefore, only call ->dirty_inode when I_DIRTY_INODE is set.

When lazytime is enabled and an inode is being written due to its
in-memory updated timestamps having expired, either due to a sync() or
syncfs() system call or due to dirtytime_expire_interval having elapsed,
the VFS needs to inform the filesystem so that the filesystem can copy
the inode's timestamps out to the on-disk data structures.
This is done by __writeback_single_inode() calling
mark_inode_dirty_sync(), which then calls ->dirty_inode(I_DIRTY_SYNC).
However, this occurs after __writeback_single_inode() has already
cleared the dirty flags from ->i_state. This causes two bugs:
- mark_inode_dirty_sync() redirties the inode, causing it to remain
dirty. This wastefully causes the inode to be written twice. But
more importantly, it breaks cases where sync_filesystem() is expected
to clean dirty inodes. This includes the FS_IOC_REMOVE_ENCRYPTION_KEY
ioctl (as reported at
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200306004555.GB225345@gmail.com), as well
as possibly filesystem freezing (freeze_super()).
- Since ->i_state doesn't contain I_DIRTY_TIME when ->dirty_inode() is
called from __writeback_single_inode() for lazytime expiration,
xfs_fs_dirty_inode() ignores the notification. (XFS only cares about
lazytime expirations, and it assumes that i_state will contain
I_DIRTY_TIME during those.) Therefore, lazy timestamps aren't
persisted by sync(), syncfs(), or dirtytime_expire_interval on XFS.
Fix this by moving the call to mark_inode_dirty_sync() to earlier in
__writeback_single_inode(), before the dirty flags are cleared from
i_state. This makes filesystems be properly notified of the timestamp
expiration, and it avoids incorrectly redirtying the inode.
This fixes xfstest generic/580 (which tests
FS_IOC_REMOVE_ENCRYPTION_KEY) when run on ext4 or f2fs with lazytime
enabled. It also fixes the new lazytime xfstest I've proposed, which
reproduces the above-mentioned XFS bug
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210105005818.92978-1-ebiggers@kernel.org).
Alternatively, we could call ->dirty_inode(I_DIRTY_SYNC) directly. But
due to the introduction of I_SYNC_QUEUED, mark_inode_dirty_sync() is the
right thing to do because mark_inode_dirty_sync() now knows not to move
the inode to a writeback list if it is currently queued for sync.

The only use of I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE is to detect in
__writeback_single_inode() that inode got there because flush worker
decided it's time to writeback the dirty inode time stamps (either
because we are syncing or because of age). However we can detect this
directly in __writeback_single_inode() and there's no need for the
strange propagation with I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE flag.

When we are processing writeback for sync(2), move_expired_inodes()
didn't set any inode expiry value (older_than_this). This can result in
writeback never completing if there's steady stream of inodes added to
b_dirty_time list as writeback rechecks dirty lists after each writeback
round whether there's more work to be done. Fix the problem by using
sync(2) start time is inode expiry value when processing b_dirty_time
list similarly as for ordinarily dirtied inodes. This requires some
refactoring of older_than_this handling which simplifies the code
noticeably as a bonus.
