filemap: add a per-mapping stable writes flag
folio_wait_stable waits for writeback to finish before modifying the
contents of a folio again, e.g. to support check summing of the data
in the block integrity code.
Currently this behavior is controlled by the SB_I_STABLE_WRITES flag
on the super_block, which means it is uniform for the entire file system.
This is wrong for the block device pseudofs which is shared by all
block devices, or file systems that can use multiple devices like XFS
witht the RT subvolume or btrfs (although btrfs currently reimplements
folio_wait_stable anyway).
Add a per-address_space AS_STABLE_WRITES flag to control the behavior
in a more fine grained way. The existing SB_I_STABLE_WRITES is kept
to initialize AS_STABLE_WRITES to the existing default which covers
most cases.

mm: avoid overflows in dirty throttling logic
The dirty throttling logic is interspersed with assumptions that dirty
limits in PAGE_SIZE units fit into 32-bit (so that various multiplications
fit into 64-bits). If limits end up being larger, we will hit overflows,
possible divisions by 0 etc. Fix these problems by never allowing so
large dirty limits as they have dubious practical value anyway. For
dirty_bytes / dirty_background_bytes interfaces we can just refuse to set
so large limits. For dirty_ratio / dirty_background_ratio it isn't so
simple as the dirty limit is computed from the amount of available memory
which can change due to memory hotplug etc. So when converting dirty
limits from ratios to numbers of pages, we just don't allow the result to
exceed UINT_MAX.
This is root-only triggerable problem which occurs when the operator
sets dirty limits to >16 TB.

Revert "mm/writeback: fix possible divide-by-zero in wb_dirty_limits(), again"
Patch series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling".
Dirty throttling logic assumes dirty limits in page units fit into
32-bits. This patch series makes sure this is true (see patch 2/2 for
more details).
This patch (of 2):
This reverts commit 9319b647902cbd5cc884ac08a8a6d54ce111fc78.
The commit is broken in several ways. Firstly, the removed (u64) cast
from the multiplication will introduce a multiplication overflow on 32-bit
archs if wb_thresh * bg_thresh >= 1<<32 (which is actually common - the
default settings with 4GB of RAM will trigger this). Secondly, the
div64_u64() is unnecessarily expensive on 32-bit archs. We have
div64_ul() in case we want to be safe & cheap. Thirdly, if dirty
thresholds are larger than 1<<32 pages, then dirty balancing is going to
blow up in many other spectacular ways anyway so trying to fix one
possible overflow is just moot.

writeback: account the number of pages written back
nr_to_write is a count of pages, so we need to decrease it by the number
of pages in the folio we just wrote, not by 1. Most callers specify
either LONG_MAX or 1, so are unaffected, but writeback_sb_inodes() might
end up writing 512x as many pages as it asked for.
Dave added:
: XFS is the only filesystem this would affect, right? AFAIA, nothing
: else enables large folios and uses writeback through
: write_cache_pages() at this point...
:
: In which case, I'd be surprised if much difference, if any, gets
: noticed by anyone.

mm/writeback: fix possible divide-by-zero in wb_dirty_limits(), again
(struct dirty_throttle_control *)->thresh is an unsigned long, but is
passed as the u32 divisor argument to div_u64(). On architectures where
unsigned long is 64 bytes, the argument will be implicitly truncated.
Use div64_u64() instead of div_u64() so that the value used in the "is
this a safe division" check is the same as the divisor.
Also, remove redundant cast of the numerator to u64, as that should happen
implicitly.
This would be difficult to exploit in memcg domain, given the ratio-based
arithmetic domain_drity_limits() uses, but is much easier in global
writeback domain with a BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT-backing device, using e.g.
vm.dirty_bytes=(1<<32)*PAGE_SIZE so that dtc->thresh == (1<<32)

The last remaining user of folio_write_one through the write_one_page

Note that the use of the pagecache by the JFS 'metapage' buffer cache is a
bit odd, and we could probably do without VM-level dirty tracking at all,
but that's a change for another time.

mm: remove zap_page_range and create zap_vma_pages
zap_page_range was originally designed to unmap pages within an address
range that could span multiple vmas. While working on [1], it was
discovered that all callers of zap_page_range pass a range entirely within
a single vma. In addition, the mmu notification call within zap_page
range does not correctly handle ranges that span multiple vmas. When
crossing a vma boundary, a new mmu_notifier_range_init/end call pair with
the new vma should be made.
Instead of fixing zap_page_range, do the following:
- Create a new routine zap_vma_pages() that will remove all pages within
the passed vma. Most users of zap_page_range pass the entire vma and
can use this new routine.
- For callers of zap_page_range not passing the entire vma, instead call
zap_page_range_single().
- Remove zap_page_range.

mm: use part per 1000000 for bdi ratios
To get finer granularity for ratio calculations use part per million
instead of percentiles. This is especially important if we want to
automatically convert byte values to ratios. Otherwise the values that
are actually used can be quite different. This is also important for
machines with more main memory (1% of 256GB is already 2.5GB).

mm: add bdi_set_strict_limit() function
Patch series "mm/block: add bdi sysfs knobs", v4.
At meta network block devices (nbd) are used to implement remote block
storage. In testing and during production it has been observed that these
network block devices can consume a huge portion of the dirty writeback
cache and writeback can take a considerable time.
To be able to give stricter limits, I'm proposing the following changes:
1) introduce strictlimit knob
Currently the max_ratio knob exists to limit the dirty_memory. However
this knob only applies once (dirty_ratio + dirty_background_ratio) / 2
has been reached.
With the BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT flag, the max_ratio can be applied without
reaching that limit. This change exposes that knob.
This knob can also be useful for NFS, fuse filesystems and USB devices.
2) Use part of 1000000 internal calculation
The max_ratio is based on percentage. With the current machine sizes
percentage values can be very high (1% of a 256GB main memory is already
2.5GB). This change uses part of 1000000 instead of percentages for the
internal calculations.
3) Introduce two new sysfs knobs: min_bytes and max_bytes.
Currently all calculations are based on ratio, but for a user it often
more convenient to specify a limit in bytes. The new knobs will not
store bytes values, instead they will translate the byte value to a
corresponding ratio. As the internal values are now part of 1000, the
ratio is closer to the specified value. However the value should be more
seen as an approximation as it can fluctuate over time.
3) Introduce two new sysfs knobs: min_ratio_fine and max_ratio_fine.
The granularity for the existing sysfs bdi knobs min_ratio and max_ratio
is based on percentage values. The new sysfs bdi knobs min_ratio_fine
and max_ratio_fine allow to specify the ratio as part of 1 million.
This patch (of 20):
This adds the bdi_set_strict_limit function to be able to set/unset the
BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT flag.

blk-wbt: Fix detection of dirty-throttled tasks
The detection of dirty-throttled tasks in blk-wbt has been subtly broken
since its beginning in 2016. Namely if we are doing cgroup writeback and
the throttled task is not in the root cgroup, balance_dirty_pages() will
set dirty_sleep for the non-root bdi_writeback structure. However
blk-wbt checks dirty_sleep only in the root cgroup bdi_writeback
structure. Thus detection of recently throttled tasks is not working in
this case (we noticed this when we switched to cgroup v2 and suddently
writeback was slow).
Since blk-wbt has no easy way to get to proper bdi_writeback and
furthermore its intention has always been to work on the whole device
rather than on individual cgroups, just move the dirty_sleep timestamp
from bdi_writeback to backing_dev_info. That fixes the checking for
recently throttled task and saves memory for everybody as a bonus.

mm: Add balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_flags() function
This adds the helper function balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_flags().
It adds the parameter flags to balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited().
The flags parameter is passed to balance_dirty_pages(). For async
buffered writes the flag value will be BDP_ASYNC.
If balance_dirty_pages() gets called for async buffered write, we don't
want to wait. Instead we need to indicate to the caller that throttling
is needed so that it can stop writing and offload the rest of the write
to a context that can block.
The new helper function is also used by balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited().

Transition of wb->dirty_exceeded from 0 to 1 happens before we go to

does not make a lot of sense since wb->dirty_exceeded should simply
reflect whether wb is over dirty limit and so we should ratelimit
entering to balance_dirty_pages() less. Move the two updates together.

We start background writeback if we are over background threshold after

basing the decision on already stale values (we may have slept for

mm: move page-writeback sysctls to their own file
kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we just
care about the core logic.
So move the page-writeback sysctls to its own file.

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.

mm/vmscan: centralise timeout values for reclaim_throttle
Neil Brown raised concerns about callers of reclaim_throttle specifying
a timeout value. The original timeout values to congestion_wait() were
probably pulled out of thin air or copy&pasted from somewhere else.
This patch centralises the timeout values and selects a timeout based on
the reason for reclaim throttling. These figures are also pulled out of
the same thin air but better values may be derived
Running a workload that is throttling for inappropriate periods and
tracing mm_vmscan_throttled can be used to pick a more appropriate
value. Excessive throttling would pick a lower timeout where as
excessive CPU usage in reclaim context would select a larger timeout.
Ideally a large value would always be used and the wakeups would occur
before a timeout but that requires careful testing.

mm/writeback: throttle based on page writeback instead of congestion
do_writepages throttles on congestion if the writepages() fails due to a
lack of memory but congestion_wait() is partially broken as the
congestion state is not updated for all BDIs.
This patch stalls waiting for a number of pages to complete writeback
that located on the local node. The main weakness is that there is no
correlation between the location of the inode's pages and locality but
that is still better than congestion_wait.

mm: warn on deleting redirtied only if accounted
filemap_unaccount_folio() has a WARN_ON_ONCE(folio_test_dirty(folio)). It
is good to warn of late dirtying on a persistent filesystem, but late
dirtying on tmpfs can only lose data which is expected to be thrown away;
and it's a pity if that warning comes ONCE on tmpfs, then hides others
which really matter. Make it conditional on mapping_cap_writeback().
Cleanup: then folio_account_cleaned() no longer needs to check that for
itself, and so no longer needs to know the mapping.

fs: Add aops->dirty_folio
This replaces ->set_page_dirty(). It returns a bool instead of an int
and takes the address_space as a parameter instead of expecting the
implementations to retrieve the address_space from the page. This is
particularly important for filesystems which use FS_OPS for swap.

mm/writeback: Add folio_write_one
Transform write_one_page() into folio_write_one() and add a compatibility
wrapper. Also move the declaration to pagemap.h as this is page cache
functionality that doesn't need to be used by the rest of the kernel.
Saves 58 bytes of kernel text. While folio_write_one() is 101 bytes
smaller than write_one_page(), the inlined call to page_folio() expands
each caller. There are fewer than ten callers so it doesn't seem worth
putting a wrapper in the core.
