dax: check synchronous mapping is supported

2019-07-05T22:19:10Z

This patch introduces 'daxdev_mapping_supported' helper which checks if 'MAP_SYNC' is supported with filesystem mapping. It also checks if corresponding dax_device is synchronous. Virtio pmem device is asynchronous and does not not support VM_SYNC. Suggested-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Pankaj Gupta Reviewed-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Dan Williams

libnvdimm: add dax_dev sync flag

2019-07-05T22:19:10Z

This patch adds 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag which is set for nd_region doing synchronous flush. This later is used to disable MAP_SYNC functionality for ext4 & xfs filesystem for devices don't support synchronous flush. Signed-off-by: Pankaj Gupta Signed-off-by: Dan Williams

dax: Arrange for dax_supported check to span multiple devices

2019-05-20T22:02:08Z

Pankaj reports that starting with commit ad428cdb525a "dax: Check the end of the block-device capacity with dax_direct_access()" device-mapper no longer allows dax operation. This results from the stricter checks in __bdev_dax_supported() that validate that the start and end of a block-device map to the same 'pagemap' instance. Teach the dax-core and device-mapper to validate the 'pagemap' on a per-target basis. This is accomplished by refactoring the bdev_dax_supported() internals into generic_fsdax_supported() which takes a sector range to validate. Consequently generic_fsdax_supported() is suitable to be used in a device-mapper ->iterate_devices() callback. A new ->dax_supported() operation is added to allow composite devices to split and route upper-level bdev_dax_supported() requests. Fixes: ad428cdb525a ("dax: Check the end of the block-device...")

dax: Fix unlock mismatch with updated API

2018-12-05T05:32:00Z

Internal to dax_unlock_mapping_entry(), dax_unlock_entry() is used to store a replacement entry in the Xarray at the given xas-index with the DAX_LOCKED bit clear. When called, dax_unlock_entry() expects the unlocked value of the entry relative to the current Xarray state to be specified. In most contexts dax_unlock_entry() is operating in the same scope as the matched dax_lock_entry(). However, in the dax_unlock_mapping_entry() case the implementation needs to recall the original entry. In the case where the original entry is a 'pmd' entry it is possible that the pfn performed to do the lookup is misaligned to the value retrieved in the Xarray. Change the api to return the unlock cookie from dax_lock_page() and pass it to dax_unlock_page(). This fixes a bug where dax_unlock_page() was assuming that the page was PMD-aligned if the entry was a PMD entry with signatures like: WARNING: CPU: 38 PID: 1396 at fs/dax.c:340 dax_insert_entry+0x2b2/0x2d0 RIP: 0010:dax_insert_entry+0x2b2/0x2d0 [..] Call Trace: dax_iomap_pte_fault.isra.41+0x791/0xde0 ext4_dax_huge_fault+0x16f/0x1f0 ? up_read+0x1c/0xa0 __do_fault+0x1f/0x160 __handle_mm_fault+0x1033/0x1490 handle_mm_fault+0x18b/0x3d0 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181130154902.GL10377@bombadil.infradead.org Fixes: 9f32d221301c ("dax: Convert dax_lock_mapping_entry to XArray") Reported-by: Dan Williams Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox Tested-by: Dan Williams Reviewed-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Dan Williams

filesystem-dax: Introduce dax_lock_mapping_entry()

2018-07-23T17:38:06Z

In preparation for implementing support for memory poison (media error) handling via dax mappings, implement a lock_page() equivalent. Poison error handling requires rmap and needs guarantees that the page->mapping association is maintained / valid (inode not freed) for the duration of the lookup. In the device-dax case it is sufficient to simply hold a dev_pagemap reference. In the filesystem-dax case we need to use the entry lock. Export the entry lock via dax_lock_mapping_entry() that uses rcu_read_lock() to protect against the inode being freed, and revalidates the page->mapping association under xa_lock().

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "This adds a user for the new 'bytes-remaining' updates to memcpy_mcsafe() that you already received through Ingo via the x86-dax- for-linus pull. Not included here, but still targeting this cycle, is support for handling memory media errors (poison) consumed via userspace dax mappings. Summary: - DAX broke a fundamental assumption of truncate of file mapped pages. The truncate path assumed that it is safe to disconnect a pinned page from a file and let the filesystem reclaim the physical block. With DAX the page is equivalent to the filesystem block. Introduce dax_layout_busy_page() to enable filesystems to wait for pinned DAX pages to be released. Without this wait a filesystem could allocate blocks under active device-DMA to a new file. - DAX arranges for the block layer to be bypassed and uses dax_direct_access() + copy_to_iter() to satisfy read(2) calls. However, the memcpy_mcsafe() facility is available through the pmem block driver. In order to safely handle media errors, via the DAX block-layer bypass, introduce copy_to_iter_mcsafe(). - Fix cache management policy relative to the ACPI NFIT Platform Capabilities Structure to properly elide cache flushes when they are not necessary. The table indicates whether CPU caches are power-fail protected.

fs/dax.c: use new return type vm_fault_t

2018-06-08T00:34:33Z

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type. commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t") There was an existing bug inside dax_load_hole() if vm_insert_mixed had failed to allocate a page table, we'd return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE instead of VM_FAULT_OOM. With new vmf_insert_mixed() this issue is addressed. vm_insert_mixed_mkwrite has inefficiency when it returns an error value, driver has to convert it to vm_fault_t type. With new vmf_insert_mixed_mkwrite() this limitation will be addressed.

dax: change bdev_dax_supported() to support boolean returns

2018-05-31T15:58:34Z

The function return values are confusing with the way the function is named. We expect a true or false return value but it actually returns 0/-errno. This makes the code very confusing. Changing the return values to return a bool where if DAX is supported then return true and no DAX support returns false. Signed-off-by: Dave Jiang Signed-off-by: Ross Zwisler Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
