During concurrent append writes to XFS filesystem, zero padding data
may appear in the file after power failure. This happens due to imprecise
disk size updates when handling write completion.
Consider this scenario with concurrent append writes same file:
Thread 1: Thread 2:
------------ -----------
write [A, A+B]
update inode size to A+B
submit I/O [A, A+BS]
write [A+B, A+B+C]
update inode size to A+B+C
<I/O completes, updates disk size to min(A+B+C, A+BS)>
<power failure>
After reboot:
1) with A+B+C < A+BS, the file has zero padding in range [A+B, A+B+C]
|< Block Size (BS) >|
|DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD0000000000000000|
^ ^ ^
A A+B A+B+C
(EOF)
2) with A+B+C > A+BS, the file has zero padding in range [A+B, A+BS]
|< Block Size (BS) >|< Block Size (BS) >|
|DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD0000000000000000|00000000000000000000000000000000|
^ ^ ^ ^
A A+B A+BS A+B+C
(EOF)
D = Valid Data
0 = Zero Padding
The issue stems from disk size being set to min(io_offset + io_size,
inode->i_size) at I/O completion. Since io_offset+io_size is block
size granularity, it may exceed the actual valid file data size. In
the case of concurrent append writes, inode->i_size may be larger
than the actual range of valid file data written to disk, leading to
inaccurate disk size updates.
This patch modifies the meaning of io_size to represent the size of
valid data within EOF in an ioend. If the ioend spans beyond i_size,
io_size will be trimmed to provide the file with more accurate size
information. This is particularly useful for on-disk size updates
at completion time.
After this change, ioends that span i_size will not grow or merge with
other ioends in concurrent scenarios. However, these cases that need
growth/merging rarely occur and it seems no noticeable performance impact.
Although rounding up io_size could enable ioend growth/merging in these
scenarios, we decided to keep the code simple after discussion [1].
Another benefit is that it makes the xfs_ioend_is_append() check more
accurate, which can reduce unnecessary end bio callbacks of xfs_end_bio()
in certain scenarios, such as repeated writes at the file tail without
extending the file size.

Pull vfs untorn write support from Christian Brauner:
"An atomic write is a write issed with torn-write protection. This
means for a power failure or any hardware failure all or none of the
data from the write will be stored, never a mix of old and new data.
This work is already supported for block devices. If a block device is
opened with O_DIRECT and the block device supports atomic write, then
FMODE_CAN_ATOMIC_WRITE is added to the file of the opened block
device.
This contains the work to expand atomic write support to filesystems,
specifically ext4 and XFS. Currently, only support for writing exactly
one filesystem block atomically is added.
Since it's now possible to have filesystem block size > page size for
XFS, it's possible to write 4K+ blocks atomically on x86"

File systems might have boundaries over which merges aren't possible.
In fact these are very common, although most of the time some kind of
header at the beginning of this region (e.g. XFS alloation groups, ext4
block groups) automatically create a merge barrier. But if that is
not present, say for a device purely used for data we need to manually
communicate that to iomap.
Add a IOMAP_F_BOUNDARY flag to never merge I/O into a previous mapping.

The predicate code that iomap_unshare_iter uses to decide if it's really
needs to unshare a file range mapping should be shared with the fsdax
version, because right now they're opencoded and inconsistent.
Note that we simplify the predicate logic a bit -- we no longer allow
unsharing of inline data mappings, but there aren't any filesystems that
allow shared inline data currently.
This is a fix in the sense that it should have been ported to fsdax.

In order to switch fuse over to using iomap for buffered writes we need
to be able to have the struct file for the original write, in case we
have to read in the page to make it uptodate. Handle this by using the
existing private field in the iomap_iter, and add the argument to
iomap_file_buffered_write. This will allow us to pass the file in
through the iomap buffered write path, and is flexible for any other
file systems needs.

The ->map_blocks interface returns a valid range for writeback, but we
still call back into it for every block, which is a bit inefficient.
Change iomap_writepage_map to use the valid range in the map until the
end of the folio or the dirty range inside the folio instead of calling
back into every block.
Note that the range is not used over folio boundaries as we need to be
able to check the mapping sequence count under the folio lock.

Back in the days when a single bio could only be filled to the hardware
limits, and we scheduled a work item for each bio completion, chaining
multiple bios for a single ioend made a lot of sense to reduce the number
of completions. But these days bios can be filled until we reach the
number of vectors or total size limit, which means we can always fit at
least 1 megabyte worth of data in the worst case, but usually a lot more
due to large folios. The only thing bio chaining is buying us now is
to reduce the size of the allocation from an ioend with an embedded bio
into a plain bio, which is a 52 bytes differences on 64-bit systems.
This is not worth the added complexity, so remove the bio chaining and
only use the bio embedded into the ioend. This will help to simplify
further changes to the iomap writeback code.

When filesystem blocksize is less than folio size (either with
mapping_large_folio_support() or with blocksize < pagesize) and when the
folio is uptodate in pagecache, then even a byte write can cause
an entire folio to be written to disk during writeback. This happens
because we currently don't have a mechanism to track per-block dirty
state within struct iomap_folio_state. We currently only track uptodate
state.
This patch implements support for tracking per-block dirty state in
iomap_folio_state->state bitmap. This should help improve the filesystem
write performance and help reduce write amplification.
Performance testing of below fio workload reveals ~16x performance
improvement using nvme with XFS (4k blocksize) on Power (64K pagesize)
FIO reported write bw scores improved from around ~28 MBps to ~452 MBps.

When an iomap defines a ->page_done() handler in its page_ops, delegate
unlocking the folio and putting the folio reference to that handler.
This allows to fix a race between journaled data writes and folio
writeback in gfs2: before this change, gfs2_iomap_page_done() was called
after unlocking the folio, so writeback could start writing back the
folio's buffers before they could be marked for writing to the journal.
Also, try_to_free_buffers() could free the buffers before
gfs2_iomap_page_done() was done adding the buffers to the current
current transaction. With this change, gfs2_iomap_page_done() adds the
buffers to the current transaction while the folio is still locked, so
the problems described above can no longer occur.
The only current user of ->page_done() is gfs2, so other filesystems are
not affected. To catch out any out-of-tree users, switch from a page to
a folio in ->page_done().

and fill the rest of the page:
writeback new write
allocate blocks
blocks are unwritten
submit IO
.....
map blocks
iomap indicates UNWRITTEN range
loop {
lock folio
copyin data
.....
IO completes
runs unwritten extent conv
blocks are marked written
<iomap now stale>
get next folio
}
Now add memory pressure such that memory reclaim evicts the
partially written folio that has already been written to disk.
When the new write finally gets to the last partial page of the new
write, it does not find it in cache, so it instantiates a new page,
sees the iomap is unwritten, and zeros the part of the page that
it does not have data from. This overwrites the data on disk that
was originally written.
The full description of the corruption mechanism can be found here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20220817093627.GZ3600936@dread.disaster.area/
To solve this problem, we need to check whether the iomap is still
valid after we lock each folio during the write. We have to do it
after we lock the page so that we don't end up with state changes
occurring while we wait for the folio to be locked.
Hence we need a mechanism to be able to check that the cached iomap
is still valid (similar to what we already do in buffered
writeback), and we need a way for ->begin_write to back out and
tell the high level iomap iterator that we need to remap the
remaining write range.
The iomap needs to grow some storage for the validity cookie that
the filesystem provides to travel with the iomap. XFS, in
particular, also needs to know some more information about what the
iomap maps (attribute extents rather than file data extents) to for
the validity cookie to cover all the types of iomaps we might need
to validate.

Because that's what Christoph wants for this error handling path
only XFS uses.
It requires a new iomap export for handling errors over delalloc
ranges. This is basically the XFS code as is stands, but even though
Christoph wants this as iomap funcitonality, we still have
to call it from the filesystem specific ->iomap_end callback, and
call into the iomap code with yet another filesystem specific
callback to punch the delalloc extent within the defined ranges.

New flag, equivalent to removal of IOCB_DSYNC from iocb flags.
This mimics what btrfs is doing (and that's what btrfs will
switch to). However, I'm not at all sure that we want to
suppress REQ_FUA for those - all btrfs hack really cares about
is suppression of generic_write_sync(). For now let's keep
the existing behaviour, but I really want to hear more detailed
arguments pro or contra.

Allow the file system to provide a specific bio_set for allocating
direct I/O bios. This will allow file systems that use the
->submit_io hook to stash away additional information for file system
use.
To make use of this additional space for information in the completion
path, the file system needs to override the ->bi_end_io callback and
then call back into iomap, so export iomap_dio_bio_end_io for that.

Ioends are processed as an atomic completion unit when all the
chained bios in the ioend have completed their IO. Logically
contiguous ioends can also be merged and completed as a single,
larger unit. Both of these things can be problematic as both the
bio chains per ioend and the size of the merged ioends processed as
a single completion are both unbound.
If we have a large sequential dirty region in the page cache,
write_cache_pages() will keep feeding us sequential pages and we
will keep mapping them into ioends and bios until we get a dirty
page at a non-sequential file offset. These large sequential runs
can will result in bio and ioend chaining to optimise the io
patterns. The pages iunder writeback are pinned within these chains
until the submission chaining is broken, allowing the entire chain
to be completed. This can result in huge chains being processed
in IO completion context.
We get deep bio chaining if we have large contiguous physical
extents. We will keep adding pages to the current bio until it is
full, then we'll chain a new bio to keep adding pages for writeback.
Hence we can build bio chains that map millions of pages and tens of
gigabytes of RAM if the page cache contains big enough contiguous
dirty file regions. This long bio chain pins those pages until the
final bio in the chain completes and the ioend can iterate all the
chained bios and complete them.
OTOH, if we have a physically fragmented file, we end up submitting
one ioend per physical fragment that each have a small bio or bio
chain attached to them. We do not chain these at IO submission time,
but instead we chain them at completion time based on file
offset via iomap_ioend_try_merge(). Hence we can end up with unbound
ioend chains being built via completion merging.
XFS can then do COW remapping or unwritten extent conversion on that
merged chain, which involves walking an extent fragment at a time
and running a transaction to modify the physical extent information.
IOWs, we merge all the discontiguous ioends together into a
contiguous file range, only to then process them individually as
discontiguous extents.
This extent manipulation is computationally expensive and can run in
a tight loop, so merging logically contiguous but physically
discontigous ioends gains us nothing except for hiding the fact the
fact we broke the ioends up into individual physical extents at
submission and then need to loop over those individual physical
extents at completion.
Hence we need to have mechanisms to limit ioend sizes and
to break up completion processing of large merged ioend chains:
1. bio chains per ioend need to be bound in length. Pure overwrites
go straight to iomap_finish_ioend() in softirq context with the
exact bio chain attached to the ioend by submission. Hence the only
way to prevent long holdoffs here is to bound ioend submission
sizes because we can't reschedule in softirq context.
2. iomap_finish_ioends() has to handle unbound merged ioend chains
correctly. This relies on any one call to iomap_finish_ioend() being
bound in runtime so that cond_resched() can be issued regularly as
the long ioend chain is processed. i.e. this relies on mechanism #1
to limit individual ioend sizes to work correctly.
3. filesystems have to loop over the merged ioends to process
physical extent manipulations. This means they can loop internally,
and so we break merging at physical extent boundaries so the
filesystem can easily insert reschedule points between individual
extent manipulations.

Pull dax and libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this is a rework of the dax_operations API after
discovering the obstacles it posed to the work-in-progress DAX+reflink
support for XFS and other copy-on-write filesystem mechanics.
Primarily the need to plumb a block_device through the API to handle
partition offsets was a sticking point and Christoph untangled that
dependency in addition to other cleanups to make landing the
DAX+reflink support easier.
The DAX_PMEM_COMPAT option has been around for 4 years and not only
are distributions shipping userspace that understand the current
configuration API, but some are not even bothering to turn this option
on anymore, so it seems a good time to remove it per the deprecation
schedule. Recall that this was added after the device-dax subsystem
moved from /sys/class/dax to /sys/bus/dax for its sysfs organization.
All recent functionality depends on /sys/bus/dax.
Some other miscellaneous cleanups and reflink prep patches are
included as well.
Summary:
- Simplify the dax_operations API:
- Eliminate bdev_dax_pgoff() in favor of the filesystem
maintaining and applying a partition offset to all its DAX iomap
operations.
- Remove wrappers and device-mapper stacked callbacks for
->copy_from_iter() and ->copy_to_iter() in favor of moving
block_device relative offset responsibility to the
dax_direct_access() caller.
- Remove the need for an @bdev in filesystem-DAX infrastructure
- Remove unused uio helpers copy_from_iter_flushcache() and
copy_mc_to_iter() as only the non-check_copy_size() versions are
used for DAX.
- Prepare XFS for the pending (next merge window) DAX+reflink support
- Remove deprecated DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT support
- Cleanup a straggling misuse of the GUID api"
