Both __d_lookup_rcu() and __d_lookup_rcu_op_compare() have the full
'name_hash' value of the qstr that they want to look up, and mask it off
to just the low 32-bit hash before calling down to d_hash().
Other callers just load the 32-bit hash and pass it as the argument.
If we move the masking into d_hash() itself, it simplifies the two
callers that currently do the masking, and is a no-op for the other
cases. It doesn't actually change the generated code since the compiler
will inline d_hash() and see that the end result is the same.
[ Technically, since the parse tree changes, the code generation may not
be 100% the same, and for me on x86-64, this does result in gcc
switching the operands around for one 'cmpl' instruction. So not
necessarily the exact same code generation, but equivalent ]
However, this does encapsulate the 'd_hash()' operation more, and makes
the shift operation in particular be a "shift 32 bits right, return full
word". Which matches the instruction semantics on both x86-64 and arm64
better, since a 32-bit shift will clear the upper bits.
That makes the next step of introducing a "shift by runtime constant"
more obvious and generates the shift with no extraneous type masking.

This reverts commit 681ce86235.
We gave it a try, but it turns out the kernel test robot did in fact
find performance regressions for it, so we'll have to look at the more
involved alternative fixes for Yafang Shao's Elasticsearch load issue.
There were several alternatives discussed, they just weren't as simple
as this first attempt.
The report is of a -7.4% regression of filebench.sum_operations/s, which
appears significant enough to trigger my "this patch may get reverted if
somebody finds a performance regression on some other load" rule.
So it's still the case that we should end up deleting dentries more
aggressively - or just be better at pruning them later - but it needs a
bit more finesse than this simple thing.

Our applications, built on Elasticsearch[0], frequently create and
delete files. These applications operate within containers, some with a
memory limit exceeding 100GB. Over prolonged periods, the accumulation
of negative dentries within these containers can amount to tens of
gigabytes.
Upon container exit, directories are deleted. However, due to the
numerous associated dentries, this process can be time-consuming. Our
users have expressed frustration with this prolonged exit duration,
which constitutes our first issue.
Simultaneously, other processes may attempt to access the parent
directory of the Elasticsearch directories. Since the task responsible
for deleting the dentries holds the inode lock, processes attempting
directory lookup experience significant delays. This issue, our second
problem, is easily demonstrated:
- Task 1 generates negative dentries:
$ pwd
~/test
$ mkdir es && cd es/ && ./create_and_delete_files.sh
[ After generating tens of GB dentries ]
$ cd ~/test && rm -rf es
[ It will take a long duration to finish ]
- Task 2 attempts to lookup the 'test/' directory
$ pwd
~/test
$ ls
The 'ls' command in Task 2 experiences prolonged execution as Task 1
is deleting the dentries.
We've devised a solution to address both issues by deleting associated
dentry when removing a file. Interestingly, we've noted that a similar
patch was proposed years ago[1], although it was rejected citing the
absence of tangible issues caused by negative dentries. Given our
current challenges, we're resubmitting the proposal. All relevant
stakeholders from previous discussions have been included for reference.
Some alternative solutions are also under discussion[2][3], such as
shrinking child dentries outside of the parent inode lock or even
asynchronously shrinking child dentries. However, given the
straightforward nature of the current solution, I believe this approach
is still necessary.
[ NOTE! This is a pretty fundamental change in how we deal with
unlinking dentries, and it doesn't change the fact that you can have
lots of negative dentries from just doing negative lookups.
But the kernel test robot is at least initially happy with this from a
performance angle, so I'm applying this ASAP just to get more testing
and as a "known fix for an issue people hit in real life".
Put another way: we should still look at the alternatives, and this
patch may get reverted if somebody finds a performance regression on
some other load. - Linus ]

Currently, the __d_clear_type_and_inode() writes the value flags to
dentry->d_flags, then immediately re-reads it in order to use it in a if
statement. This re-read is useless because no other update to
dentry->d_flags can occur at this point.
This commit therefore re-use flags in the if statement instead of
re-reading dentry->d_flags.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.9.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Misc features, cleanups, and fixes for vfs and individual filesystems.
Features:
- Support idmapped mounts for hugetlbfs.
- Add RWF_NOAPPEND flag for pwritev2(). This allows us to fix a bug
where the passed offset is ignored if the file is O_APPEND. The new
flag allows a caller to enforce that the offset is honored to
conform to posix even if the file was opened in append mode.
- Move i_mmap_rwsem in struct address_space to avoid false sharing
between i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem.
- Convert efs, qnx4, and coda to use the new mount api.
- Add a generic is_dot_dotdot() helper that's used by various
filesystems and the VFS code instead of open-coding it multiple
times.
- Recently we've added stable offsets which allows stable ordering
when iterating directories exported through NFS on e.g., tmpfs
filesystems. Originally an xarray was used for the offset map but
that caused slab fragmentation issues over time. This switches the
offset map to the maple tree which has a dense mode that handles
this scenario a lot better. Includes tests.
- Finally merge the case-insensitive improvement series Gabriel has
been working on for a long time. This cleanly propagates case
insensitive operations through ->s_d_op which in turn allows us to
remove the quite ugly generic_set_encrypted_ci_d_ops() operations.
It also improves performance by trying a case-sensitive comparison
first and then fallback to case-insensitive lookup if that fails.
This also fixes a bug where overlayfs would be able to be mounted
over a case insensitive directory which would lead to all sort of
odd behaviors.
Cleanups:
- Make file_dentry() a simple accessor now that ->d_real() is
simplified because of the backing file work we did the last two
cycles.
- Use the dedicated file_mnt_idmap helper in ntfs3.
- Use smp_load_acquire/store_release() in the i_size_read/write
helpers and thus remove the hack to handle i_size reads in the
filemap code.
- The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD is a nop now. Remove it from various places in
fs/
- It's no longer necessary to perform a second built-in initramfs
unpack call because we retain the contents of the previous
extraction. Remove it.
- Now that we have removed various allocators kfree_rcu() always
works with kmem caches and kmalloc(). So simplify various places
that only use an rcu callback in order to handle the kmem cache
case.
- Convert the pipe code to use a lockdep comparison function instead
of open-coding the nesting making lockdep validation easier.
- Move code into fs-writeback.c that was located in a header but can
be made static as it's only used in that one file.
- Rewrite the alignment checking iterators for iovec and bvec to be
easier to read, and also significantly more compact in terms of
generated code. This saves 270 bytes of text on x86-64 (with
clang-18) and 224 bytes on arm64 (with gcc-13). In profiles it also
saves a bit of time for the same workload.
- Switch various places to use KMEM_CACHE instead of
kmem_cache_create().
- Use inode_set_ctime_to_ts() in inode_set_ctime_current()
- Use kzalloc() in name_to_handle_at() to avoid kernel infoleak.
- Various smaller cleanups for eventfds.
Fixes:
- Fix various comments and typos, and unneeded initializations.
- Fix stack allocation hack for clang in the select code.
- Improve dump_mapping() debug code on a best-effort basis.
- Fix build errors in various selftests.
- Avoid wrap-around instrumentation in various places.
- Don't allow user namespaces without an idmapping to be used for
idmapped mounts.
- Fix sysv sb_read() call.
- Fix fallback implementation of the get_name() export operation"

To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size
penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the
final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this
work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove
the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/ directory only.
The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as those patches
are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect also the removal of the
no longer needed check for procname == NULL.
Let us recap the purpose of this work:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls
out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to see further
work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the struct ctl_table.
Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have suggested
for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for v6.9-rc1 I look forward
to seeing him sent you a pull request for further sysctl changes. This also
removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer as he has moved on to other projects and
has had no time to help at all.

Patch series "workload-specific and memory pressure-driven zswap
writeback", v8.
There are currently several issues with zswap writeback:
1. There is only a single global LRU for zswap, making it impossible to
perform worload-specific shrinking - an memcg under memory pressure
cannot determine which pages in the pool it owns, and often ends up
writing pages from other memcgs. This issue has been previously
observed in practice and mitigated by simply disabling
memcg-initiated shrinking:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230530232435.3097106-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/T/#u
But this solution leaves a lot to be desired, as we still do not
have an avenue for an memcg to free up its own memory locked up in
the zswap pool.
2. We only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is hit.
This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are
unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious
memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed
ahead of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on
factors such as memory access patterns and compressibility of the
memory pages).
This patch series solves these issues by separating the global zswap LRU
into per-memcg and per-NUMA LRUs, and performs workload-specific (i.e
memcg- and NUMA-aware) zswap writeback under memory pressure. The new
shrinker does not have any parameter that must be tuned by the user, and
can be opted in or out on a per-memcg basis.
As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the
linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in
tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall
performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe
from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.
This patch (of 6):
The interface of list_lru is based on the assumption that the list node
and the data it represents belong to the same allocated on the correct
node/memcg. While this assumption is valid for existing slab objects LRU
such as dentries and inodes, it is undocumented, and rather inflexible for
certain potential list_lru users (such as the upcoming zswap shrinker and
the THP shrinker). It has caused us a lot of issues during our
development.
This patch changes list_lru interface so that the caller must explicitly
specify numa node and memcg when adding and removing objects. The old
list_lru_add() and list_lru_del() are renamed to list_lru_add_obj() and
list_lru_del_obj(), respectively.
It also extends the list_lru API with a new function, list_lru_putback,
which undoes a previous list_lru_isolate call. Unlike list_lru_add, it
does not increment the LRU node count (as list_lru_isolate does not
decrement the node count). list_lru_putback also allows for explicit
memcg and NUMA node selection.

dget_dlock() requires dentry->d_lock to be held when called, yet

After taking out the NULL check, dget_dlock() becomes almost identical
to __dget_dlock(); the only difference is that dget_dlock() returns the
dentry that was passed in. These are static inline helpers, so we can
rely on the compiler to discard unused return values. We can therefore
also remove __dget_dlock() and replace calls to it by dget_dlock().
Also fix up and improve the kerneldoc comments while we're at it.
Al Viro pointed out that we can also clean up some of the callers to
make use of the returned value and provided a bit more info for the
kerneldoc.
While preparing v2 I also noticed that the tabs used in the kerneldoc
comments were causing the kerneldoc to get parsed incorrectly so I also

With the new ordering in __dentry_kill() it has become redundant -
it's set if and only if both DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED and DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST
are set.
We set it in __dentry_kill(), after having set DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED
with the only condition being that DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST is there;
all of that is done without dropping ->d_lock and the only place
that checks that flag (shrink_dentry_list()) does so under ->d_lock,
after having found the victim on its shrink list. Since DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST
is set only when placing dentry into shrink list and removed only by
shrink_dentry_list() itself, a check for DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED in
there would be equivalent to check for DCACHE_MAY_FREE.

fast_dput() contains a small piece of code, preceded by scary
comments about 5 times longer than it. What is actually done there is
a trimmed-down subset of retain_dentry() - in some situations we can
tell that retain_dentry() would have returned true without ever needing
->d_lock and that's what that code checks. If these checks come true
fast_dput() can declare that we are done, without bothering with ->d_lock;
otherwise it has to take the lock and do full variant of retain_dentry()
checks.
Trimmed-down variant of the checks is hard to follow and
it's asking for trouble - if we ever decide to change the rules in
retain_dentry(), we'll have to remember to update that code. It turns
out that an equivalent variant of these checks more obviously parallel
to retain_dentry() is not just possible, but easy to unify with
retain_dentry() itself, passing it a new boolean argument ('locked')
to distinguish between the full semantics and trimmed down one.
Note that in lockless case true is returned only when locked
variant would have returned true without ever needing the lock; false
means "punt to the locking path and recheck there".

Currently we enter __dentry_kill() with parent (along with the victim
dentry and victim's inode) held locked. Then we
mark dentry refcount as dead
call ->d_prune()
remove dentry from hash
remove it from the parent's list of children
unlock the parent, don't need it from that point on
detach dentry from inode, unlock dentry and drop the inode
(via ->d_iput())
call ->d_release()
regain the lock on dentry
check if it's on a shrink list (in which case freeing its empty husk
has to be left to shrink_dentry_list()) or not (in which case we can free it
ourselves). In the former case, mark it as an empty husk, so that
shrink_dentry_list() would know it can free the sucker.
drop the lock on dentry
... and usually the caller proceeds to drop a reference on the parent,
possibly retaking the lock on it.
That is painful for a bunch of reasons, starting with the need to take locks
out of order, but not limited to that - the parent of positive dentry can
change if we drop its ->d_lock, so getting these locks has to be done with
care. Moreover, as soon as dentry is out of the parent's list of children,
shrink_dcache_for_umount() won't see it anymore, making it appear as if
the parent is inexplicably busy. We do work around that by having
shrink_dentry_list() decrement the parent's refcount first and put it on
shrink list to be evicted once we are done with __dentry_kill() of child,
but that may in some cases lead to ->d_iput() on child called after the
parent got killed. That doesn't happen in cases where in-tree ->d_iput()
instances might want to look at the parent, but that's brittle as hell.
Solution: do removal from the parent's list of children in the very
end of __dentry_kill(). As the result, the callers do not need to
lock the parent and by the time we really need the parent locked,
dentry is negative and is guaranteed not to be moved around.
It does mean that ->d_prune() will be called with parent not locked.
It also means that we might see dentries in process of being torn
down while going through the parent's list of children; those dentries
will be unhashed, negative and with refcount marked dead. In practice,
that's enough for in-tree code that looks through the list of children
to do the right thing as-is. Out-of-tree code might need to be adjusted.
Calling conventions: __dentry_kill(dentry) is called with dentry->d_lock
held, along with ->i_lock of its inode (if any). It either returns
the parent (locked, with refcount decremented to 0) or NULL (if there'd
been no parent or if refcount decrement for parent hadn't reached 0).
lock_for_kill() is adjusted for new requirements - it doesn't touch
the parent's ->d_lock at all.
Callers adjusted. Note that for dput() we don't need to bother with
fast_dput() for the parent - we just need to check retain_dentry()
for it, since its ->d_lock is still held since the moment when
__dentry_kill() had taken it to remove the victim from the list of
children.
The kludge with early decrement of parent's refcount in
shrink_dentry_list() is no longer needed - shrink_dcache_for_umount()
sees the half-killed dentries in the list of children for as long
as they are pinning the parent. They are easily recognized and
accounted for by select_collect(), so we know we are not done yet.
As the result, we always have the expected ordering for ->d_iput()/->d_release()
vs. __dentry_kill() of the parent, no exceptions. Moreover, the current
rules for shrink lists (one must make sure that shrink_dcache_for_umount()
won't happen while any dentries from the superblock in question are on
any shrink lists) are gone - shrink_dcache_for_umount() will do the
right thing in all cases, taking such dentries out. Their empty
husks (memory occupied by struct dentry itself + its external name,
if any) will remain on the shrink lists, but they are no obstacles
to filesystem shutdown. And such husks will get freed as soon as
shrink_dentry_list() of the list they are on gets to them.

Instead of dropping aliases one by one, restarting, etc., just
collect them into a shrink list and kill them off in one pass.
We don't really need the restarts - one alias can't pin another
(directory has only one alias, and couldn't be its own ancestor
anyway), so collecting everything that is not busy and taking it
out would take care of everything evictable that had been there
as we entered the function. And new aliases added while we'd
been dropping old ones could just as easily have appeared right
as we return to caller...

That is to say, do *not* treat the ->d_inode or ->d_parent changes
as "it's hard, return false; somebody must have grabbed it, so
even if has zero refcount, we don't need to bother killing it -
final dput() from whoever grabbed it would've done everything".
First of all, that is not guaranteed. It might have been dropped
by shrink_kill() handling of victim's parent, which would've found
it already on a shrink list (ours) and decided that they don't need
to put it on their shrink list.
What's more, dentry_kill() is doing pretty much the same thing,
cutting its own set of corners (it assumes that dentry can't
go from positive to negative, so its inode can change but only once
and only in one direction).
Doing that right allows to get rid of that not-quite-duplication
and removes the only reason for re-incrementing refcount before
the call of dentry_kill().
Replacement is called lock_for_kill(); called under rcu_read_lock
and with ->d_lock held. If it returns false, dentry has non-zero
refcount and the same locks are held. If it returns true,
dentry has zero refcount and all locks required by __dentry_kill()
are taken.
Part of __lock_parent() had been lifted into lock_parent() to
allow its reuse. Now it's called with rcu_read_lock already
held and dentry already unlocked.
Note that this is not the final change - locking requirements for
__dentry_kill() are going to change later in the series and the
set of locks taken by lock_for_kill() will be adjusted. Both
lock_parent() and __lock_parent() will be gone once that happens.

Calls of retain_dentry() happen immediately after getting false
from fast_dput() and getting true from retain_dentry() is
treated the same way as non-zero refcount would be treated by
fast_dput() - unlock dentry and bugger off.
Doing that in fast_dput() itself is simpler.

Instead of bumping it from 0 to 1, calling retain_dentry(), then
decrementing it back to 0 (with ->d_lock held all the way through),
just leave refcount at 0 through all of that.
It will have a visible effect for ->d_delete() - now it can be
called with refcount 0 instead of 1 and it can no longer play
silly buggers with dropping/regaining ->d_lock. Not that any
in-tree instances tried to (it's pretty hard to get right).
Any out-of-tree ones will have to adjust (assuming they need any
changes).
Note that we do not need to extend rcu-critical area here - we have
verified that refcount is non-negative after having grabbed ->d_lock,
so nobody will be able to free dentry until they get into __dentry_kill(),
which won't happen until they manage to grab ->d_lock.

We have already checked it and dentry used to look not worthy
of keeping. The only hard obstacle to evicting dentry is
non-zero refcount; everything else is advisory - e.g. memory
pressure could evict any dentry found with refcount zero.
On the slow path in dentry_kill() we had dropped and regained
->d_lock; we must recheck the refcount, but everything else
is not worth bothering with.
Note that filesystem can not count upon ->d_delete() being
called for dentry - not even once. Again, memory pressure
(as well as d_prune_aliases(), or attempted rmdir() of ancestor,
or...) will not call ->d_delete() at all.
So from the correctness point of view we are fine doing the
check only once. And it makes things simpler down the road.

Currently we call it with refcount equal to 1 when called from
dentry_kill(); all other callers have it equal to 0.
Make it always be called with zero refcount; on this step we
just decrement it before the calls in dentry_kill(). That is
safe, since all places that care about the value of refcount
either do that under ->d_lock or hold a reference to dentry
in question. Either is sufficient to prevent observing a
dentry immediately prior to __dentry_kill() getting called
from dentry_kill().

If refcount is less than 1, we should just warn, unlock dentry and
return true, so that the caller doesn't try to do anything else.
Taking care of that leaves the rest of "lockref_put_return() has
failed" case equivalent to "decrement refcount and rejoin the
normal slow path after the point where we grab ->d_lock".
NOTE: lockref_put_return() is strictly a fastpath thing - unlike
the rest of lockref primitives, it does not contain a fallback.
Caller (and it looks like fast_dput() is the only legitimate one
in the entire kernel) has to do that itself. Reasons for
lockref_put_return() failures:
* ->d_lock held by somebody
* refcount <= 0
* ... or an architecture not supporting lockref use of
cmpxchg - sparc, anything non-SMP, config with spinlock debugging...
We could add a fallback, but it would be a clumsy API - we'd have
to distinguish between:
(1) refcount > 1 - decremented, lock not held on return
(2) refcount < 1 - left alone, probably no sense to hold the lock
(3) refcount is 1, no cmphxcg - decremented, lock held on return
(4) refcount is 1, cmphxcg supported - decremented, lock *NOT* held
on return.
We want to return with no lock held in case (4); that's the whole point of that
thing. We very much do not want to have the fallback in case (3) return without
a lock, since the caller might have to retake it in that case.
So it wouldn't be more convenient than doing the fallback in the caller and
it would be very easy to screw up, especially since the test coverage would
suck - no way to test (3) and (4) on the same kernel build.

->d_delete() is a way for filesystem to tell that dentry is not worth
keeping cached. It is not guaranteed to be called every time a dentry
has refcount drop down to zero; it is not guaranteed to be called before
dentry gets evicted. In other words, it is not suitable for any kind
of keeping track of dentry state.
None of the in-tree filesystems attempt to use it that way, fortunately.
So the contortions done by fast_dput() (as well as dentry_kill()) are
not warranted. fast_dput() certainly should treat having ->d_delete()
instance as "can't assume we'll be keeping it", but that's not different
from the way we treat e.g. DCACHE_DONTCACHE (which is rather similar
to making ->d_delete() returns true when called).

__d_add() and __d_move() wake up waiters on dentry::d_wait from within
the i_seq_dir write held region. This violates the PREEMPT_RT
constraints as the wake up acquires wait_queue_head::lock which is a
"sleeping" spinlock on RT.
There is no requirement to do so. __d_lookup_unhash() has cleared
DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP and dentry::d_wait and returned the now unreachable wait
queue head pointer to the caller, so the actual wake up can be postponed
until the i_dir_seq write side critical section is left. The only
requirement is that dentry::lock is held across the whole sequence
including the wake up. The previous commit includes an analysis why this
is considered safe.
Move the wake up past end_dir_add() which leaves the i_dir_seq write side
critical section and enables preemption.
For non RT kernels there is no difference because preemption is still
disabled due to dentry::lock being held, but it shortens the time between
wake up and unlocking dentry::lock, which reduces the contention for the
woken up waiter.

__d_lookup_done() wakes waiters on dentry->d_wait. On PREEMPT_RT we are
not allowed to do that with preemption disabled, since the wakeup
acquired wait_queue_head::lock, which is a "sleeping" spinlock on RT.
Calling it under dentry->d_lock is not a problem, since that is also a
"sleeping" spinlock on the same configs. Unfortunately, two of its
callers (__d_add() and __d_move()) are holding more than just ->d_lock
and that needs to be dealt with.
The key observation is that wakeup can be moved to any point before
dropping ->d_lock.
As a first step to solve this, move the wake up outside of the
hlist_bl_lock() held section.
This is safe because:
Waiters get inserted into ->d_wait only after they'd taken ->d_lock
and observed DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP in flags. As long as they are
woken up (and evicted from the queue) between the moment __d_lookup_done()
has removed DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP and dropping ->d_lock, we are safe,
since the waitqueue ->d_wait points to won't get destroyed without
having __d_lookup_done(dentry) called (under ->d_lock).
->d_wait is set only by d_alloc_parallel() and only in case when
it returns a freshly allocated in-lookup dentry. Whenever that happens,
we are guaranteed that __d_lookup_done() will be called for resulting
dentry (under ->d_lock) before the wq in question gets destroyed.
With two exceptions wq lives in call frame of the caller of
d_alloc_parallel() and we have an explicit d_lookup_done() on the
resulting in-lookup dentry before we leave that frame.
One of those exceptions is nfs_call_unlink(), where wq is embedded into
(dynamically allocated) struct nfs_unlinkdata. It is destroyed in
nfs_async_unlink_release() after an explicit d_lookup_done() on the
dentry wq went into.
Remaining exception is d_add_ci(). There wq is what we'd found in
->d_wait of d_add_ci() argument. Callers of d_add_ci() are two
instances of ->d_lookup() and they must have been given an in-lookup
dentry. Which means that they'd been called by __lookup_slow() or
lookup_open(), with wq in the call frame of one of those.
Result of d_alloc_parallel() in d_add_ci() is fed to
d_splice_alias(), which either returns non-NULL (and d_add_ci() does
d_lookup_done()) or feeds dentry to __d_add() that will do
__d_lookup_done() under ->d_lock. That concludes the analysis.
Let __d_lookup_unhash():
1) Lock the lookup hash and clear DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP
2) Unhash the dentry
3) Retrieve and clear dentry::d_wait
4) Unlock the hash and return the retrieved waitqueue head pointer
5) Let the caller handle the wake up.
6) Rename __d_lookup_done() to __d_lookup_unhash_wake() to enforce
build failures for OOT code that used __d_lookup_done() and is not
aware of the new return value.
This does not yet solve the PREEMPT_RT problem completely because
preemption is still disabled due to i_dir_seq being held for write. This
will be addressed in subsequent steps.
An alternative solution would be to switch the waitqueue to a simple
waitqueue, but aside of Linus not being a fan of them, moving the wake up
closer to the place where dentry::lock is unlocked reduces lock contention
time for the woken up waiter.

i_dir_seq is a sequence counter with a lock which is represented by the
lowest bit. The writer atomically updates the counter which ensures that it
can be modified by only one writer at a time. This requires preemption to
be disabled across the write side critical section.
On !PREEMPT_RT kernels this is implicit by the caller acquiring
dentry::lock. On PREEMPT_RT kernels spin_lock() does not disable preemption
which means that a preempting writer or reader would live lock. It's
therefore required to disable preemption explicitly.
An alternative solution would be to replace i_dir_seq with a seqlock_t for
PREEMPT_RT, but that comes with its own set of problems due to arbitrary
lock nesting. A pure sequence count with an associated spinlock is not
possible because the locks held by the caller are not necessarily related.
As the critical section is small, disabling preemption is a sensible
solution.

All callers of d_alloc_parallel() must make sure that resulting
in-lookup dentry (if any) will encounter __d_lookup_done() before
the final dput(). d_add_ci() might end up creating in-lookup
dentries; they are fed to d_splice_alias(), which will normally
make sure they meet __d_lookup_done(). However, it is possible
to end up with d_splice_alias() failing with ERR_PTR(-ELOOP)
without having done so. It takes a corrupted ntfs or case-insensitive
xfs image, but neither should end up with memory corruption...

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 dcache sysctl clutter out of kernel/sysctl.c. This is a

If DCACHE_REFERENCED is set, fast_dput() will return true, and then
retain_dentry() have no chance to check DCACHE_DONTCACHE. As a result,
the dentry won't be killed and the corresponding inode can't be evicted.
In the following example, the DAX policy can't take effects unless we
do a drop_caches manually.
# DCACHE_LRU_LIST will be set
echo abcdefg > test.txt
# DCACHE_REFERENCED will be set and DCACHE_DONTCACHE can't do anything
xfs_io -c 'chattr +x' test.txt
# Drop caches to make DAX changing take effects
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
What this patch does is preventing fast_dput() from returning true if
DCACHE_DONTCACHE is set. Then retain_dentry() will detect the
DCACHE_DONTCACHE and will return false. As a result, the dentry will be
killed and the inode will be evicted. In this way, if we change per-file
DAX policy, it will take effects automatically after this file is closed
by all processes.
I also add some comments to make the code more clear.

A sequence counter write side critical section must be protected by some
form of locking to serialize writers. A plain seqcount_t does not
contain the information of which lock must be held when entering a write
side critical section.
Use the new seqcount_spinlock_t data type, which allows to associate a
spinlock with the sequence counter. This enables lockdep to verify that
the spinlock used for writer serialization is held when the write side
critical section is entered.
If lockdep is disabled this lock association is compiled out and has

"Fallout from tree-wide audit for ->d_inode/->d_flags barriers use.
Basically, the problem is that negative pinned dentries require
careful treatment - unless ->d_lock is locked or parent is held at
least shared, another thread can make them positive right under us.
Most of the uses turned out to be safe - the main surprises as far as
filesystems are concerned were
- race in dget_parent() fastpath, that might end up with the caller
observing the returned dentry _negative_, due to insufficient
barriers. It is positive in memory, but we could end up seeing the
wrong value of ->d_inode in CPU cache. Fixed.
- manual checks that result of lookup_one_len_unlocked() is positive
(and rejection of negatives). Again, insufficient barriers (we
might end up with inconsistent observed values of ->d_inode and
->d_flags). Fixed by switching to a new primitive that does the
checks itself and returns ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) instead of a negative
dentry. That way we get rid of boilerplate converting negatives
into ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) in the callers and have a single place to
deal with the barrier-related mess - inside fs/namei.c rather than
in every caller out there.
The guts of pathname resolution *do* need to be careful - the race
found by Ritesh is real, as well as several similar races.
Fortunately, it turns out that we can take care of that with fairly
local changes in there.
The tree-wide audit had not been fun, and I hate the idea of repeating
it. I think the right approach would be to annotate the places where
we are _not_ guaranteed ->d_inode/->d_flags stability and have sparse
catch regressions. But I'm still not sure what would be the least
invasive way of doing that and it's clearly the next cycle fodder"

fs/namei.c: fix missing barriers when checking positivity
fix dget_parent() fastpath race
new helper: lookup_positive_unlocked()
fs/namei.c: pull positivity check into follow_managed()
Pinned negative dentries can, generally, be made positive
by another thread. Conditions that prevent that are
* ->d_lock on dentry in question
* parent directory held at least shared
* nobody else could have observed the address of dentry
Most of the places working with those fall into one of those
categories; however, d_lookup() and friends need to be used
with some care. Fortunately, there's not a lot of call sites,
and with few exceptions all of those fall under one of the
cases above.
Exceptions are all in fs/namei.c - in lookup_fast(), lookup_dcache()
and mountpoint_last(). Another one is lookup_slow() - there
dcache lookup is done with parent held shared, but the result
is used after we'd drop the lock. The same happens in do_last() -
the lookup (in lookup_one()) is done with parent locked, but
result is used after unlocking.
lookup_fast(), do_last() and mountpoint_last() flat-out reject
negatives.
Most of lookup_dcache() calls are made with parent locked at least
shared; the only exception is lookup_one_len_unlocked(). It might
return pinned negative, needs serious care from callers. Fortunately,
almost nobody calls it directly anymore; all but two callers have
converted to lookup_positive_unlocked(), which rejects negatives.
lookup_slow() is called by the same lookup_one_len_unlocked() (see
above), mountpoint_last() and walk_component(). In those two negatives
are rejected.
In other words, there is a small set of places where we need to
check carefully if a pinned potentially negative dentry is, in
fact, positive. After that check we want to be sure that both
->d_inode and type bits in ->d_flags are stable and observed.
The set consists of follow_managed() (where the rejection happens
for lookup_fast(), walk_component() and do_last()), last_mountpoint()
and lookup_positive_unlocked().
Solution:
1) transition from negative to positive (in __d_set_inode_and_type())
stores ->d_inode, then uses smp_store_release() to set ->d_flags type bits.
2) aforementioned 3 places in fs/namei.c fetch ->d_flags with
smp_load_acquire() and bugger off if it type bits say "negative".
That way anyone downstream of those checks has dentry know positive pinned,
with ->d_inode and type bits of ->d_flags stable and observed.
I considered splitting off d_lookup_positive(), so that the checks could
be done right there, under ->d_lock. However, that leads to massive
duplication of rather subtle code in fs/namei.c and fs/dcache.c. It's
worse than it might seem, thanks to autofs ->d_manage() getting involved ;-/
No matter what, autofs_d_manage()/autofs_d_automount() must live with
the possibility of pinned negative dentry passed their way, becoming
positive under them - that's the intended behaviour when lookup comes
in the middle of automount in progress, so we can't keep them out of
the area that has to deal with those, more's the pity...

We are overoptimistic about taking the fast path there; seeing
the same value in ->d_parent after having grabbed a reference
to that parent does *not* mean that it has remained our parent
all along.
That wouldn't be a big deal (in the end it is our parent and
we have grabbed the reference we are about to return), but...
the situation with barriers is messed up.
We might have hit the following sequence:
d is a dentry of /tmp/a/b
CPU1: CPU2:
parent = d->d_parent (i.e. dentry of /tmp/a)
rename /tmp/a/b to /tmp/b
rmdir /tmp/a, making its dentry negative
grab reference to parent,
end up with cached parent->d_inode (NULL)
mkdir /tmp/a, rename /tmp/b to /tmp/a/b
recheck d->d_parent, which is back to original
decide that everything's fine and return the reference we'd got.
The trouble is, caller (on CPU1) will observe dget_parent()
returning an apparently negative dentry. It actually is positive,
but CPU1 has stale ->d_inode cached.
Use d->d_seq to see if it has been moved instead of rechecking ->d_parent.
NOTE: we are *NOT* going to retry on any kind of ->d_seq mismatch;
we just go into the slow path in such case. We don't wait for ->d_seq
to become even either - again, if we are racing with renames, we
can bloody well go to slow path anyway.

Currently, running into a shrink list that contains dentries from different
filesystems can cause several unpleasant things for shrink_dcache_parent()
and for umount(2).
The first problem is that there's a window during shrink_dentry_list() between
__dentry_kill() takes a victim out and dropping reference to its parent. During
that window the parent looks like a genuine busy dentry. shrink_dcache_parent()
(or, worse yet, shrink_dcache_for_umount()) coming at that time will see no
eviction candidates and no indication that it needs to wait for some
shrink_dentry_list() to proceed further.
That applies for any shrink list that might intersect with the subtree we are
trying to shrink; the only reason it does not blow on umount(2) in the mainline
is that we unregister the memory shrinker before hitting shrink_dcache_for_umount().
Another problem happens if something in a mixed-filesystem shrink list gets
be stuck in e.g. iput(), getting umount of unrelated fs to spin waiting for
the stuck shrinker to get around to our dentries.
Solution:
1) have shrink_dentry_list() decrement the parent's refcount and
make sure it's on a shrink list (ours unless it already had been on some
other) before calling __dentry_kill(). That eliminates the window when
shrink_dcache_parent() would've blown past the entire subtree without
noticing anything with zero refcount not on shrink lists.
2) when shrink_dcache_parent() has found no eviction candidates,
but some dentries are still sitting on shrink lists, rather than
repeating the scan in hope that shrinkers have progressed, scan looking
for something on shrink lists with zero refcount. If such a thing is
found, grab rcu_read_lock() and stop the scan, with caller locking
it for eviction, dropping out of RCU and doing __dentry_kill(), with
the same treatment for parent as shrink_dentry_list() would do.
Note that right now mixed-filesystem shrink lists do not occur, so this
is not a mainline bug. Howevere, there's a bunch of uses for such
beasts (e.g. the "try and evict everything we can out of given page"
patches; there are potential uses in mount-related code, considerably
simplifying the life in fs/namespace.c, etc.)

d_delete() was piggy backed for the fsnotify_nameremove() hook when
in fact not all callers of d_delete() care about fsnotify events.
For all callers of d_delete() that may be interested in fsnotify events,
we made sure to call one of fsnotify_{unlink,rmdir}() hooks before
calling d_delete().
Now we can move the fsnotify_nameremove() call from d_delete() to the
fsnotify_{unlink,rmdir}() hooks.
Two explicit calls to fsnotify_nameremove() from nfs/afs sillyrename
are also removed. This will cause a change of behavior - nfs/afs will
NOT generate an fsnotify delete event when renaming over a positive
dentry. This change is desirable, because it is consistent with the
behavior of all other filesystems.

Make __d_move() clear DCACHE_ENCRYPTED_NAME on the source dentry. This
is needed for when d_splice_alias() moves a directory's encrypted alias
to its decrypted alias as a result of the encryption key being added.
Otherwise, the decrypted alias will incorrectly be invalidated on the
next lookup, causing problems such as unmounting a mount the user just
mount()ed there.
Note that we don't have to support arbitrary moves of this flag because
fscrypt doesn't allow dentries with DCACHE_ENCRYPTED_NAME to be the
source or target of a rename().

No modular uses since introducion of alloc_file_pseudo(),

For lockless accesses to dentries we don't have pinned we rely
(among other things) upon having an RCU delay between dropping
the last reference and actually freeing the memory.
On the other hand, for things like pipes and sockets we neither
do that kind of lockless access, nor want to deal with the
overhead of an RCU delay every time a socket gets closed.
So delay was made optional - setting DCACHE_RCUACCESS in ->d_flags
made sure it would happen. We tried to avoid setting it unless
we knew we need it. Unfortunately, that had led to recurring
class of bugs, in which we missed the need to set it.
We only really need it for dentries that are created by
d_alloc_pseudo(), so let's not bother with trying to be smart -
just make having an RCU delay the default. The ones that do
*not* get it set the replacement flag (DCACHE_NORCU) and we'd
better use that sparingly. d_alloc_pseudo() is the only
such user right now.
FWIW, the race that finally prompted that switch had been
between __lock_parent() of immediate subdirectory of what's
currently the root of a disconnected tree (e.g. from
open-by-handle in progress) racing with d_splice_alias()
elsewhere picking another alias for the same inode, either
on outright corrupted fs image, or (in case of open-by-handle
on NFS) that subdirectory having been just moved on server.
It's not easy to hit, so the sky is not falling, but that's
not the first race on similar missed cases and the logics
for settinf DCACHE_RCUACCESS has gotten ridiculously
convoluted.

The current dentry number tracking code doesn't distinguish between
positive & negative dentries. It just reports the total number of
dentries in the LRU lists.
As excessive number of negative dentries can have an impact on system
performance, it will be wise to track the number of positive and
negative dentries separately.
This patch adds tracking for the total number of negative dentries in
the system LRU lists and reports it in the 5th field in the
/proc/sys/fs/dentry-state file. The number, however, does not include
negative dentries that are in flight but not in the LRU yet as well as
those in the shrinker lists which are on the way out anyway.
The number of positive dentries in the LRU lists can be roughly found by
subtracting the number of negative dentries from the unused count.
Matthew Wilcox had confirmed that since the introduction of the
dentry_stat structure in 2.1.60, the dummy array was there, probably for
future extension. They were not replacements of pre-existing fields.
So no sane applications that read the value of /proc/sys/fs/dentry-state
will do dummy thing if the last 2 fields of the sysctl parameter are not
zero. IOW, it will be safe to use one of the dummy array entry for
negative dentry count.

The nr_dentry_unused per-cpu counter tracks dentries in both the LRU
lists and the shrink lists where the DCACHE_LRU_LIST bit is set.
The shrink_dcache_sb() function moves dentries from the LRU list to a
shrink list and subtracts the dentry count from nr_dentry_unused. This
is incorrect as the nr_dentry_unused count will also be decremented in
shrink_dentry_list() via d_shrink_del().
To fix this double decrement, the decrement in the shrink_dcache_sb()
function is taken out.

We can use the newly introduced kmalloc-reclaimable-X caches, to allocate
external names in dcache, which will take care of the proper accounting
automatically, and also improve anti-fragmentation page grouping.
This effectively reverts commit f1782c9bc5 ("dcache: account external
names as indirectly reclaimable memory") and instead passes
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE to kmalloc(). The accounting thus moves from
NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES to NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE, which is also
considered in MemAvailable calculation and overcommit decisions.

RCU pathwalk relies upon the assumption that anything that changes
->d_inode of a dentry will invalidate its ->d_seq. That's almost
true - the one exception is that the final dput() of already unhashed
dentry does *not* touch ->d_seq at all. Unhashing does, though,
so for anything we'd found by RCU dcache lookup we are fine.
Unfortunately, we can *start* with an unhashed dentry or jump into
it.
We could try and be careful in the (few) places where that could
happen. Or we could just make the final dput() invalidate the damn
thing, unhashed or not. The latter is much simpler and easier to
backport, so let's do it that way.

Since mountpoint crossing can happen without leaving lazy mode,
root dentries do need the same protection against having their
memory freed without RCU delay as everything else in the tree.
It's partially hidden by RCU delay between detaching from the
mount tree and dropping the vfsmount reference, but the starting
point of pathwalk can be on an already detached mount, in which
case umount-caused RCU delay has already passed by the time the
lazy pathwalk grabs rcu_read_lock(). If the starting point
happens to be at the root of that vfsmount *and* that vfsmount
covers the entire filesystem, we get trouble.

We don't want open-by-handle picking half-set-up in-core
struct inode from e.g. mkdir() having failed halfway through.
In other words, we don't want such inodes returned by iget_locked()
on their way to extinction. However, we can't just have them
unhashed - otherwise open-by-handle immediately *after* that would've
ended up creating a new in-core inode over the on-disk one that
is in process of being freed right under us.
Solution: new flag (I_CREATING) set by insert_inode_locked() and
removed by unlock_new_inode() and a new primitive (discard_new_inode())
to be used by such halfway-through-setup failure exits instead of
unlock_new_inode() / iput() combinations. That primitive unlocks new
inode, but leaves I_CREATING in place.
iget_locked() treats finding an I_CREATING inode as failure
(-ESTALE, once we sort out the error propagation).
insert_inode_locked() treats the same as instant -EBUSY.
ilookup() treats those as icache miss.

The only user is fuse_create_new_entry(), and there it's used to
mitigate the same mkdir/open-by-handle race as in nfs_mkdir().
The same solution applies - unhash the mkdir argument, then
call d_splice_alias() and if that returns a reference to preexisting
alias, dput() and report success. ->mkdir() argument left unhashed
negative with the preexisting alias moved in the right place is just
fine from the ->mkdir() callers point of view.

For anything NFS-exported we do _not_ want to unlock new inode
before it has grown an alias; original set of fixes got the
ordering right, but missed the nasty complication in case of
lockdep being enabled - unlock_new_inode() does
lockdep_annotate_inode_mutex_key(inode)
which can only be done before anyone gets a chance to touch
->i_mutex. Unfortunately, flipping the order and doing
unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate() opens a window when
mkdir can race with open-by-fhandle on a guessed fhandle, leading
to multiple aliases for a directory inode and all the breakage
that follows from that.
Correct solution: a new primitive (d_instantiate_new())
combining these two in the right order - lockdep annotate, then
d_instantiate(), then the rest of unlock_new_inode(). All
combinations of d_instantiate() with unlock_new_inode() should
be converted to that.
