Roman Gushchin 6d7942377c dcache: account external names as indirectly reclaimable memory
commit f1782c9bc5 upstream.

I received a report about suspicious growth of unreclaimable slabs on
some machines.  I've found that it happens on machines with low memory
pressure, and these unreclaimable slabs are external names attached to
dentries.

External names are allocated using generic kmalloc() function, so they
are accounted as unreclaimable.  But they are held by dentries, which
are reclaimable, and they will be reclaimed under the memory pressure.

In particular, this breaks MemAvailable calculation, as it doesn't take
unreclaimable slabs into account.  This leads to a silly situation, when
a machine is almost idle, has no memory pressure and therefore has a big
dentry cache.  And the resulting MemAvailable is too low to start a new
workload.

To address the issue, the NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES counter is
used to track the amount of memory, consumed by external names.  The
counter is increased in the dentry allocation path, if an external name
structure is allocated; and it's decreased in the dentry freeing path.

To reproduce the problem I've used the following Python script:

  import os

  for iter in range (0, 10000000):
      try:
          name = ("/some_long_name_%d" % iter) + "_" * 220
          os.stat(name)
      except Exception:
          pass

Without this patch:
  $ cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemAvailable
  MemAvailable:    7811688 kB
  $ python indirect.py
  $ cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemAvailable
  MemAvailable:    2753052 kB

With the patch:
  $ cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemAvailable
  MemAvailable:    7809516 kB
  $ python indirect.py
  $ cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemAvailable
  MemAvailable:    7749144 kB

Al Viro d5426a3841 make sure that __dentry_kill() always invalidates d_seq, unhashed or not
commit 4c0d7cd5c8 upstream.

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.

Al Viro abfc0ec698 root dentries need RCU-delayed freeing
commit 90bad5e05b upstream.

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.

Will Deacon 3623c1f37e fs: dcache: Avoid livelock between d_alloc_parallel and __d_add
[ Upstream commit 015555fd4d ]

If d_alloc_parallel runs concurrently with __d_add, it is possible for
d_alloc_parallel to continuously retry whilst i_dir_seq has been
incremented to an odd value by __d_add:

CPU0:
__d_add
	n = start_dir_add(dir);
		cmpxchg(&dir->i_dir_seq, n, n + 1) == n

CPU1:
d_alloc_parallel
retry:
	seq = smp_load_acquire(&parent->d_inode->i_dir_seq) & ~1;
	hlist_bl_lock(b);
		bit_spin_lock(0, (unsigned long *)b); // Always succeeds

CPU0:
	__d_lookup_done(dentry)
		hlist_bl_lock
			bit_spin_lock(0, (unsigned long *)b); // Never succeeds

CPU1:
	if (unlikely(parent->d_inode->i_dir_seq != seq)) {
		hlist_bl_unlock(b);
		goto retry;
	}

Since the simple bit_spin_lock used to implement hlist_bl_lock does not
provide any fairness guarantees, then CPU1 can starve CPU0 of the lock
and prevent it from reaching end_dir_add(dir), therefore CPU1 cannot
exit its retry loop because the sequence number always has the bottom
bit set.

This patch resolves the livelock by not taking hlist_bl_lock in
d_alloc_parallel if the sequence counter is odd, since any subsequent
masked comparison with i_dir_seq will fail anyway.

Al Viro f440ea85d4 do d_instantiate/unlock_new_inode combinations safely
commit 1e2e547a93 upstream.

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.

NeilBrown db470ce8c6 VFS: close race between getcwd() and d_move()
[ Upstream commit 61647823aa ]

d_move() will call __d_drop() and then __d_rehash()
on the dentry being moved.  This creates a small window
when the dentry appears to be unhashed.  Many tests
of d_unhashed() are made under ->d_lock and so are safe
from racing with this window, but some aren't.
In particular, getcwd() calls d_unlinked() (which calls
d_unhashed()) without d_lock protection, so it can race.

This races has been seen in practice with lustre, which uses d_move() as
part of name lookup.  See:
   https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9735
It could race with a regular rename(), and result in ENOENT instead
of either the 'before' or 'after' name.

The race can be demonstrated with a simple program which
has two threads, one renaming a directory back and forth
while another calls getcwd() within that directory: it should never
fail, but does.  See:
  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9455345/

We could fix this race by taking d_lock and rechecking when
d_unhashed() reports true.  Alternately when can remove the window,
which is the approach this patch takes.

___d_drop() is introduce which does *not* clear d_hash.pprev
so the dentry still appears to be hashed.  __d_drop() calls
___d_drop(), then clears d_hash.pprev.
__d_move() now uses ___d_drop() and only clears d_hash.pprev
when not rehashing.

Al Viro b071bce3ff lock_parent() needs to recheck if dentry got __dentry_kill'ed under it
commit 3b82140963 upstream.

In case when dentry passed to lock_parent() is protected from freeing only
by the fact that it's on a shrink list and trylock of parent fails, we
could get hit by __dentry_kill() (and subsequent dentry_kill(parent))
between unlocking dentry and locking presumed parent.  We need to recheck
that dentry is alive once we lock both it and parent *and* postpone
rcu_read_unlock() until after that point.  Otherwise we could return
a pointer to struct dentry that already is rcu-scheduled for freeing, with
->d_lock held on it; caller's subsequent attempt to unlock it can end
up with memory corruption.

Levin, Alexander (Sasha Levin) 2abfcdf8e7 kmemcheck: remove annotations
commit 4950276672 upstream.

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2.

As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck.

KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of
kmemcheck (single CPU, slow).  KASan is already upstream.

We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't
consider KASan as a suitable replacement).

The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC
versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2
years, and try again.

Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports
KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.

This patch (of 4):

Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.

Sahitya Tummala b17c070fb6 fs/dcache.c: fix spin lockup issue on nlru->lock
__list_lru_walk_one() acquires nlru spin lock (nlru->lock) for longer
duration if there are more number of items in the lru list.  As per the
current code, it can hold the spin lock for upto maximum UINT_MAX
entries at a time.  So if there are more number of items in the lru
list, then "BUG: spinlock lockup suspected" is observed in the below
path:

  spin_bug+0x90

This nlru->lock is acquired by another CPU in this path -

Al Viro 49d31c2f38 dentry name snapshots
take_dentry_name_snapshot() takes a safe snapshot of dentry name;
if the name is a short one, it gets copied into caller-supplied
structure, otherwise an extra reference to external name is grabbed
(those are never modified).  In either case the pointer to stable
string is stored into the same structure.

dentry must be held by the caller of take_dentry_name_snapshot(),
but may be freely dropped afterwards - the snapshot will stay
until destroyed by release_dentry_name_snapshot().

Intended use:
	struct name_snapshot s;

	take_dentry_name_snapshot(&s, dentry);
	...
	access s.name
	...
	release_dentry_name_snapshot(&s);

Replaces fsnotify_oldname_...(), gets used in fsnotify to obtain the name
to pass down with event.

Al Viro 81be24d263 Hang/soft lockup in d_invalidate with simultaneous calls
It's not hard to trigger a bunch of d_invalidate() on the same
dentry in parallel.  They end up fighting each other - any
dentry picked for removal by one will be skipped by the rest
and we'll go for the next iteration through the entire
subtree, even if everything is being skipped.  Morevoer, we
immediately go back to scanning the subtree.  The only thing
we really need is to dissolve all mounts in the subtree and
as soon as we've nothing left to do, we can just unhash the
dentry and bugger off.

Josef Bacik 563f40019d fs: don't set *REFERENCED on single use objects
By default we set DCACHE_REFERENCED and I_REFERENCED on any dentry or
inode we create.  This is problematic as this means that it takes two
trips through the LRU for any of these objects to be reclaimed,
regardless of their actual lifetime.  With enough pressure from these
caches we can easily evict our working set from page cache with single
use objects.  So instead only set *REFERENCED if we've already been
added to the LRU list.  This means that we've been touched since the
first time we were accessed, and so more likely to need to hang out in
cache.

To illustrate this issue I wrote the following scripts

https://github.com/josefbacik/debug-scripts/tree/master/cache-pressure

on my test box.  It is a single socket 4 core CPU with 16gib of RAM and
I tested on an Intel 2tib NVME drive.  The cache-pressure.sh script
creates a new file system and creates 2 6.5gib files in order to take up
13gib of the 16gib of ram with pagecache.  Then it runs a test program
that reads these 2 files in a loop, and keeps track of how often it has
to read bytes for each loop.  On an ideal system with no pressure we
should have to read 0 bytes indefinitely.  The second thing this script
does is start a fs_mark job that creates a ton of 0 length files,
putting pressure on the system with slab only allocations.  On exit the
script prints out how many bytes were read by the read-file program.
The results are as follows

Without patch:
/mnt/btrfs-test/reads/file1: total read during loops 27262988288
/mnt/btrfs-test/reads/file2: total read during loops 27262976000

With patch:
/mnt/btrfs-test/reads/file2: total read during loops 18640457728
/mnt/btrfs-test/reads/file1: total read during loops 9565376512

This patch results in a 50% reduction of the amount of pages evicted
from our working set.

Eric W. Biederman 3895dbf898 mnt: Protect the mountpoint hashtable with mount_lock
Protecting the mountpoint hashtable with namespace_sem was sufficient
until a call to umount_mnt was added to mntput_no_expire.  At which
point it became possible for multiple calls of put_mountpoint on
the same hash chain to happen on the same time.

Kristen Johansen <kjlx@templeofstupid.com> reported:
> This can cause a panic when simultaneous callers of put_mountpoint
> attempt to free the same mountpoint.  This occurs because some callers
> hold the mount_hash_lock, while others hold the namespace lock.  Some
> even hold both.
>
> In this submitter's case, the panic manifested itself as a GP fault in
> put_mountpoint() when it called hlist_del() and attempted to dereference
> a m_hash.pprev that had been poisioned by another thread.

Al Viro observed that the simple fix is to switch from using the namespace_sem
to the mount_lock to protect the mountpoint hash table.

I have taken Al's suggested patch moved put_mountpoint in pivot_root
(instead of taking mount_lock an additional time), and have replaced
new_mountpoint with get_mountpoint a function that does the hash table
lookup and addition under the mount_lock.   The introduction of get_mounptoint
ensures that only the mount_lock is needed to manipulate the mountpoint
hashtable.

d_set_mounted is modified to only set DCACHE_MOUNTED if it is not
already set.  This allows get_mountpoint to use the setting of
DCACHE_MOUNTED to ensure adding a struct mountpoint for a dentry
happens exactly once.

Linus Torvalds 554828ee0d Merge branch 'salted-string-hash'
This changes the vfs dentry hashing to mix in the parent pointer at the
_beginning_ of the hash, rather than at the end.

That actually improves both the hash and the code generation, because we
can move more of the computation to the "static" part of the dcache
setup, and do less at lookup runtime.

It turns out that a lot of other hash users also really wanted to mix in
a base pointer as a 'salt' for the hash, and so the slightly extended
interface ends up working well for other cases too.

Users that want a string hash that is purely about the string pass in a
'salt' pointer of NULL.

Miklos Szeredi 2d902671ce vfs: merge .d_select_inode() into .d_real()
The two methods essentially do the same: find the real dentry/inode
belonging to an overlay dentry.  The difference is in the usage:

vfs_open() uses ->d_select_inode() and expects the function to perform
copy-up if necessary based on the open flags argument.

file_dentry() uses ->d_real() passing in the overlay dentry as well as the
underlying inode.

vfs_rename() uses ->d_select_inode() but passes zero flags.  ->d_real()
with a zero inode would have worked just as well here.

This patch merges the functionality of ->d_select_inode() into ->d_real()
by adding an 'open_flags' argument to the latter.

And constify the inode argument, while we are at it.

Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the

Al Viro ba65dc5ef1 much milder d_walk() race
d_walk() relies upon the tree not getting rearranged under it without
rename_lock being touched.  And we do grab rename_lock around the
places that change the tree topology.  Unfortunately, branch reordering
is just as bad from d_walk() POV and we have two places that do it
without touching rename_lock - one in handling of cursors (for ramfs-style
directories) and another in autofs.  autofs one is a separate story; this
commit deals with the cursors.
	* mark cursor dentries explicitly at allocation time
	* make __dentry_kill() leave ->d_child.next pointing to the next
non-cursor sibling, making sure that it won't be moved around unnoticed
before the parent is relocked on ascend-to-parent path in d_walk().
	* make d_walk() skip cursors explicitly; strictly speaking it's
not necessary (all callbacks we pass to d_walk() are no-ops on cursors),
but it makes analysis easier.

Al Viro 3d56c25e3b fix d_walk()/non-delayed __d_free() race
Ascend-to-parent logics in d_walk() depends on all encountered child
dentries not getting freed without an RCU delay.  Unfortunately, in
quite a few cases it is not true, with hard-to-hit oopsable race as
the result.

Fortunately, the fix is simiple; right now the rule is "if it ever
been hashed, freeing must be delayed" and changing it to "if it
ever had a parent, freeing must be delayed" closes that hole and
covers all cases the old rule used to cover.  Moreover, pipes and
sockets remain _not_ covered, so we do not introduce RCU delay in
the cases which are the reason for having that delay conditional
in the first place.

Al Viro 550dce01dd unify dentry_iput() and dentry_unlink_inode()
There is a lot of duplication between dentry_unlink_inode() and dentry_iput().
The only real difference is that dentry_unlink_inode() bumps ->d_seq and
dentry_iput() doesn't.  The argument of the latter is known to have been
unhashed, so anybody who might've found it in RCU lookup would already be
doomed to a ->d_seq mismatch.  And we want to avoid pointless smp_rmb() there.

This patch makes dentry_unlink_inode() bump ->d_seq only for hashed dentries.
It's safe (d_delete() calls that sucker only if we are holding the only
reference to dentry, so rehash is not going to happen) and it allows
to use dentry_unlink_inode() in __dentry_kill() and get rid of dentry_iput().

The interesting question here is profiling; it *is* a hot path, and extra
conditional jumps in there might or might not be painful.

Linus Torvalds 7e0fb73c52 Merge branch 'hash' of git://ftp.sciencehorizons.net/linux
Pull string hash improvements from George Spelvin:
 "This series does several related things:

   - Makes the dcache hash (fs/namei.c) useful for general kernel use.

     (Thanks to Bruce for noticing the zero-length corner case)

   - Converts the string hashes in <linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h> to use the
     above.

   - Avoids 64-bit multiplies in hash_64() on 32-bit platforms.  Two
     32-bit multiplies will do well enough.

   - Rids the world of the bad hash multipliers in hash_32.

     This finishes the job started in commit 689de1d6ca ("Minimal
     fix-up of bad hashing behavior of hash_64()")

     The vast majority of Linux architectures have hardware support for
     32x32-bit multiply and so derive no benefit from "simplified"
     multipliers.

     The few processors that do not (68000, h8/300 and some models of
     Microblaze) have arch-specific implementations added.  Those
     patches are last in the series.

   - Overhauls the dcache hash mixing.

     The patch in commit 0fed3ac866 ("namei: Improve hash mixing if
     CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS") was an off-the-cuff suggestion.
     Replaced with a much more careful design that's simultaneously
     faster and better.  (My own invention, as there was noting suitable
     in the literature I could find.  Comments welcome!)

   - Modify the hash_name() loop to skip the initial HASH_MIX().  This
     would let us salt the hash if we ever wanted to.

   - Sort out partial_name_hash().

     The hash function is declared as using a long state, even though
     it's truncated to 32 bits at the end and the extra internal state
     contributes nothing to the result.  And some callers do odd things:

      - fs/hfs/string.c only allocates 32 bits of state
      - fs/hfsplus/unicode.c uses it to hash 16-bit unicode symbols not bytes

   - Modify bytemask_from_count to handle inputs of 1..sizeof(long)
     rather than 0..sizeof(long)-1.  This would simplify users other
     than full_name_hash"

  Special thanks to Bruce Fields for testing and finding bugs in v1.  (I
  learned some humbling lessons about "obviously correct" code.)

  On the arch-specific front, the m68k assembly has been tested in a
  standalone test harness, I've been in contact with the Microblaze
  maintainers who mostly don't care, as the hardware multiplier is never
  omitted in real-world applications, and I haven't heard anything from
  the H8/300 world"

George Spelvin fcfd2fbf22 fs/namei.c: Add hashlen_string() function
We'd like to make more use of the highly-optimized dcache hash functions
throughout the kernel, rather than have every subsystem create its own,
and a function that hashes basic null-terminated strings is required
for that.

(The name is to emphasize that it returns both hash and length.)

It's actually useful in the dcache itself, specifically d_alloc_name().
Other uses in the next patch.

full_name_hash() is also tweaked to make it more generally useful:
1) Take a "char *" rather than "unsigned char *" argument, to
   be consistent with hash_name().
2) Handle zero-length inputs.  If we want more callers, we don't want
   to make them worry about corner cases.
