Writeback has been recently converted to use workqueue instead of its
private thread pool implementation. One negative side effect of this
conversion is that there's no easy to tell which backing device a
writeback work item was working on at the time of task dump, be it
sysrq-t, BUG, WARN or whatever, which, according to our writeback
brethren, is important in tracking down issues with a lot of mounted
file systems on a lot of different devices.This patch restores that information using the new worker description
facility. bdi_writeback_workfn() calls set_work_desc() to identify
which bdi it's working on. The description is printed out together with
the worqueue name and worker function as in the following example dump.WARNING: at fs/fs-writeback.c:1015 bdi_writeback_workfn+0x2b4/0x3c0()

Writeback implements its own worker pool - each bdi can be associated
with a worker thread which is created and destroyed dynamically. The
worker thread for the default bdi is always present and serves as the
"forker" thread which forks off worker threads for other bdis.there's no reason for writeback to implement its own worker pool when
using unbound workqueue instead is much simpler and more efficient.
This patch replaces custom worker pool implementation in writeback
with an unbound workqueue.The conversion isn't too complicated but the followings are worth
mentioning.* bdi_writeback->last_active, task and wakeup_timer are removed.
delayed_work ->dwork is added instead. Explicit timer handling is
no longer necessary. Everything works by either queueing / modding
/ flushing / canceling the delayed_work item.* bdi_writeback_thread() becomes bdi_writeback_workfn() which runs off
bdi_writeback->dwork. On each execution, it processes
bdi->work_list and reschedules itself if there are more things to
do.The function also handles low-mem condition, which used to be
handled by the forker thread. If the function is running off a
rescuer thread, it only writes out limited number of pages so that
the rescuer can serve other bdis too. This preserves the flusher
creation failure behavior of the forker thread.* INIT_LIST_HEAD(&bdi->bdi_list) is used to tell
bdi_writeback_workfn() about on-going bdi unregistration so that it
always drains work_list even if it's running off the rescuer. Note
that the original code was broken in this regard. Under memory
pressure, a bdi could finish unregistration with non-empty
work_list.* The default bdi is no longer special. It now is treated the same as
any other bdi and bdi_cap_flush_forker() is removed.* BDI_pending is no longer used. Removed.
* Some tracepoints become non-applicable. The following TPs are
removed - writeback_nothread, writeback_wake_thread,
writeback_wake_forker_thread, writeback_thread_start,
writeback_thread_stop.Everything, including devices coming and going away and rescuer
operation under simulated memory pressure, seems to work fine in my
test setup.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

Add tracepoints for page dirtying, writeback_single_inode start, inode
dirtying and writeback. For the latter two inode events, a pair of
events are defined to denote start and end of the operations (the
starting one has _start suffix and the one w/o suffix happens after
the operation is complete). These inode ops are FS specific and can
be non-trivial and having enclosing tracepoints is useful for external
tracers.This is part of tracepoint additions to improve visiblity into
dirtying / writeback operations for io tracer and userland.v2: writeback_dirty_inode[_start] TPs may be called for files on
pseudo FSes w/ unregistered bdi. Check whether bdi->dev is %NULL
before dereferencing.v3: buffer dirtying moved to a block TP.

writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle() is re-implemented by replacing down_read()
with down_read_trylock() because- If ->s_umount is write locked, then the sb is not idle. That is
writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle() needn't wait for the lock.- writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle() grabs s_umount lock when it want to start
writeback, it may bring us deadlock problem when doing umount. In order to
fix the problem, ext4 and btrfs implemented their own writeback functions
instead of writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle(), but it introduced the redundant
code, it is better to implement a new writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle().The name of these two functions is cumbersome, so rename them to
try_to_writeback_inodes_sb(_nr).This idea came from Christoph Hellwig.
Some code is from the patch of Kamal Mostafa.Reviewed-by: Jan Kara

Commit 169ebd90131b ("writeback: Avoid iput() from flusher thread")
removed iget-iput pair from inode writeback. As a side effect, inodes
that are dirty during iput_final() call won't be ever added to inode LRU
(iput_final() doesn't add dirty inodes to LRU and later when the inode
is cleaned there's noone to add the inode there). Thus inodes are
effectively unreclaimable until someone looks them up again.The practical effect of this bug is limited by the fact that inodes are
pinned by a dentry for long enough that the inode gets cleaned. But
still the bug can have nasty consequences leading up to OOM conditions
under certain circumstances. Following can easily reproduce the
problem:for (( i = 0; i < 1000; i++ )); do
mkdir $i
for (( j = 0; j < 1000; j++ )); do
touch $i/$j
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
done
donethen one needs to run 'sync; ls -lR' to make inodes reclaimable again.
We fix the issue by inserting unused clean inodes into the LRU after
writeback finishes in inode_sync_complete().Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

In ext4_nonda_switch(), if the file system is getting full we used to
call writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle(). The problem is that we can be
holding i_mutex already, and this causes a potential deadlock when
writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle() when it tries to take s_umount. (See
lockdep output below).As it turns out we don't need need to hold s_umount; the fact that we
are in the middle of the write(2) system call will keep the superblock
pinned. Unfortunately writeback_inodes_sb() checks to make sure
s_umount is taken, and the VFS uses a different mechanism for making
sure the file system doesn't get unmounted out from under us. The
simplest way of dealing with this is to just simply grab s_umount
using a trylock, and skip kicking the writeback flusher thread in the
very unlikely case that we can't take a read lock on s_umount without
blocking.Also, we now check the cirteria for kicking the writeback thread
before we decide to whether to fall back to non-delayed writeback, so
if there are any outstanding delayed allocation writes, we try to get
them resolved as soon as possible.[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]

Doing iput() from flusher thread (writeback_sb_inodes()) can create problems
because iput() can do a lot of work - for example truncate the inode if it's
the last iput on unlinked file. Some filesystems depend on flusher thread
progressing (e.g. because they need to flush delay allocated blocks to reduce
allocation uncertainty) and so flusher thread doing truncate creates
interesting dependencies and possibilities for deadlocks.We get rid of iput() in flusher thread by using the fact that I_SYNC inode
flag effectively pins the inode in memory. So if we take care to either hold
i_lock or have I_SYNC set, we can get away without taking inode reference
in writeback_sb_inodes().As a side effect of these changes, we also fix possible use-after-free in
wb_writeback() because inode_wait_for_writeback() call could try to reacquire
i_lock on the inode that was already free.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

The code in writeback_single_inode() is relatively complex. The list requeing
logic makes sense only for flusher thread but not really for sync_inode() or
write_inode_now() callers. Also when we want to get rid of inode references
held by flusher thread, we will need a special I_SYNC handling there.So separate part of writeback_single_inode() which does the real writeback work
into __writeback_single_inode() and make writeback_single_inode() do only stuff
necessary for callers writing only one inode, moving the special list handling
into writeback_sb_inodes(). As a sideeffect this fixes a possible race where we
could skip some inode during sync(2) because other writer refiled it from b_io
to b_dirty list. Also I_SYNC handling is moved into the callers of
__writeback_single_inode() to make locking easier.Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig

writeback_single_inode() doesn't need wb->list_lock for anything on entry now.
So remove the requirement. This makes locking of writeback_single_inode()

wb->list_lock) but it will be sanitized in the next patch.Also inode_wait_for_writeback() doesn't need wb->list_lock for anything. It was
just taking it to make usage convenient for callers but with
writeback_single_inode() changing it's not very convenient anymore. So remove
the lock from that function.Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig

Instead of clearing I_DIRTY_PAGES and resetting it when we didn't succeed in

separate it from writeback list handling. This is desirable because list
handling will differ for flusher thread and other writeback_single_inode()
callers in future. No filesystem plays any tricks with I_DIRTY_PAGES (like
checking it in ->writepages or ->write_inode implementation) so this movement
is safe.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

When writeback_single_inode() is called on inode which has I_SYNC already
set while doing WB_SYNC_NONE, inode is moved to b_more_io list. However
this makes sense only if the caller is flusher thread. For other callers of
writeback_single_inode() it doesn't really make sense and may be even wrong
- flusher thread may be doing WB_SYNC_ALL writeback in parallel.So we move requeueing from writeback_single_inode() to writeback_sb_inodes().

Move clearing of I_SYNC into inode_sync_complete(). It is more logical to have
clearing of I_SYNC bit and waking of waiters in one place. Also later we will
have two places needing to clear I_SYNC and wake up waiters so this allows them
to use the common helper. Moving of I_SYNC clearing to a later stage of
writeback_single_inode() is safe since we hold i_lock all the time.Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig

For files only using THIS_MODULE and/or EXPORT_SYMBOL, map
them onto including export.h -- or if the file isn't even
using those, then just delete the include. Fix up any implicit
include dependencies that were being masked by module.h along
the way.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

bdi_prune_sb() resets sb->s_bdi to default_backing_dev_info when the
tearing down the original bdi. Fix trace_writeback_single_inode to
use sb->s_bdi=default_backing_dev_info rather than bdi->dev=NULL for a
teared down bdi.Cc:

Move invalidate_bdev, block_sync_page into fs/block_dev.c. Export
kill_bdev as well, so brd doesn't have to open code it. Reduce
buffer_head.h requirement accordingly.Removed a rather large comment from invalidate_bdev, as it looked a bit
obsolete to bother moving. The small comment replacing it says enough.Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin
