commit 7e934cf5ac upstream.
xas_for_each_marked() is using entry == NULL as a termination condition
of the iteration. When xas_for_each_marked() is used protected only by
RCU, this can however race with xas_store(xas, NULL) in the following
way:
TASK1 TASK2
page_cache_delete() find_get_pages_range_tag()
xas_for_each_marked()
xas_find_marked()
off = xas_find_chunk()
xas_store(&xas, NULL)
xas_init_marks(&xas);
...
rcu_assign_pointer(*slot, NULL);
entry = xa_entry(off);
And thus xas_for_each_marked() terminates prematurely possibly leading
to missed entries in the iteration (translating to missing writeback of
some pages or a similar problem).
If we find a NULL entry that has been marked, skip it (unless we're trying
to allocate an entry).

Since a283348629 ("page cache: Finish XArray conversion"), on most
major Linux distributions, the page cache doesn't correctly transition
when the hot data set is changing, and leaves the new pages thrashing
indefinitely instead of kicking out the cold ones.
On a freshly booted, freshly ssh'd into virtual machine with 1G RAM
running stock Arch Linux:

120268/153600 workingset-b
workingset-b is a 600M file on a 1G host that is otherwise entirely
idle. No matter how often it's being accessed, it won't get cached.
While investigating, I noticed that the non-resident information gets
aggressively reclaimed - /proc/vmstat::workingset_nodereclaim. This is
a problem because a workingset transition like this relies on the
non-resident information tracked in the page cache tree of evicted
file ranges: when the cache faults are refaults of recently evicted
cache, we challenge the existing active set, and that allows a new
workingset to establish itself.
Tracing the shrinker that maintains this memory revealed that all page
cache tree nodes were allocated to the root cgroup. This is a problem,
because 1) the shrinker sizes the amount of non-resident information
it keeps to the size of the cgroup's other memory and 2) on most major
Linux distributions, only kernel threads live in the root cgroup and
everything else gets put into services or session groups:
[root@ham ~]# cat /proc/self/cgroup
0::/user.slice/user-0.slice/session-c1.scope
As a result, we basically maintain no non-resident information for the
workloads running on the system, thus breaking the caching algorithm.
Looking through the code, I found the culprit in the above-mentioned
patch: when switching from the radix tree to xarray, it dropped the
__GFP_ACCOUNT flag from the tree node allocations - the flag that
makes sure the allocated memory gets charged to and tracked by the
cgroup of the calling process - in this case, the one doing the fault.
To fix this, allow xarray users to specify per-tree flag that makes
xarray allocate nodes using __GFP_ACCOUNT. Then restore the page cache
tree annotation to request such cgroup tracking for the cache nodes.
With this patch applied, the page cache correctly converges on new
workingsets again after just a few iterations:

This differs slightly from the IDR equivalent in five ways.
1. It can allocate up to UINT_MAX instead of being limited to INT_MAX,
like xa_alloc(). Also like xa_alloc(), it will write to the 'id'
pointer before placing the entry in the XArray.
2. The 'next' cursor is allocated separately from the XArray instead
of being part of the IDR. This saves memory for all the users which
do not use the cyclic allocation API and suits some users better.
3. It returns -EBUSY instead of -ENOSPC.
4. It will attempt to wrap back to the minimum value on memory allocation
failure as well as on an -EBUSY error, assuming that a user would
rather allocate a small ID than suffer an ID allocation failure.
5. It reports whether it has wrapped, which is important to some users.

A lot of places want to allocate IDs starting at 1 instead of 0.
While the xa_alloc() API supports this, it's not very efficient if lots
of IDs are allocated, due to having to walk down to the bottom of the
tree to see if ID 1 is available, then all the way over to the next
non-allocated ID. This method marks ID 0 as being occupied which wastes
one slot in the XArray, but preserves xa_empty() as working.

There is a math problem here which leads to a lot of static checker
warnings for me:
net/sunrpc/clnt.c:451 rpc_new_client() error: (-4096) too low for ERR_PTR
Error values are from -1 to -4095 or from 0xffffffff to 0xfffff001 in
hexadecimal. (I am assuming a 32 bit system for simplicity). We are
using the lowest two bits to hold some internal XArray data so the
error is shifted two spaces to the left. 0xfffff001 << 2 is 0xffffc004.
And finally we want to check that BIT(1) is set so we add 2 which gives
us 0xffffc006.
In other words, we should be checking that "entry >= 0xffffc006", but
the check is actually testing if "entry >= 0xffffc002".

There were three problems with this API:
1. It took too many arguments; almost all users wanted to iterate over
every element in the array rather than a subset.
2. It required that 'index' be initialised before use, and there's no
realistic way to make GCC catch that.
3. 'index' and 'entry' were the opposite way round from every other
member of the XArray APIs.
So split it into three different APIs:
xa_for_each(xa, index, entry)
xa_for_each_start(xa, index, entry, start)
xa_for_each_marked(xa, index, entry, filter)

A regular xa_init_flags() put all dynamically-initialised XArrays into
the same locking class. That leads to lockdep believing that taking
one XArray lock while holding another is a deadlock. It's possible to
work around some of these situations with separate locking classes for
irq/bh/regular XArrays, and SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING, but that's ugly, and
it doesn't work for all situations (where we have completely unrelated
XArrays).

Like cmpxchg(), xa_cmpxchg will only store to the index if the current

xa_store() differs from radix_tree_insert() in that it will overwrite an
existing element in the array rather than returning an error. This is
the behaviour which most users want, and those that want more complex
behaviour generally want to use the xas family of routines anyway.
For memory allocation, xa_store() will first attempt to request memory
from the slab allocator; if memory is not immediately available, it will
drop the xa_lock and allocate memory, keeping a pointer in the xa_state.
It does not use the per-CPU cache, although those will continue to exist
until all radix tree users are converted to the xarray.
This patch also includes xa_erase() and __xa_erase() for a streamlined
way to store NULL. Since there is no need to allocate memory in order
to store a NULL in the XArray, we do not need to trouble the user with
deciding what memory allocation flags to use.

This results in no change in structure size on 64-bit machines as it
fits in the padding between the gfp_t and the void *. 32-bit machines
will grow the structure from 8 to 12 bytes. Almost all radix trees are
protected with (at least) a spinlock, so as they are converted from
radix trees to xarrays, the data structures will shrink again.
Initialising the spinlock requires a name for the benefit of lockdep, so
RADIX_TREE_INIT() now needs to know the name of the radix tree it's
initialising, and so do IDR_INIT() and IDA_INIT().
Also add the xa_lock() and xa_unlock() family of wrappers to make it
easier to use the lock. If we could rely on -fplan9-extensions in the
compiler, we could avoid all of this syntactic sugar, but that wasn't
added until gcc 4.6.
