Fix race issue in fid contention.
Eric's and Greg's patch offer a mechanism to fix open-unlink-f*syscall
bug in 9p. But there is race issue in fid parallel accesses.
As Greg's patch stores all of fids from opened files into according inode,
so all the lookup fid ops can retrieve fid from inode preferentially. But
there is no mechanism to handle the fid contention issue. For example,
there are two threads get the same fid in the same time and one of them
clunk the fid before the other thread ready to discard the fid. In this
scenario, it will lead to some fatal problems, even kernel core dump.
I introduce a mechanism to fix this race issue. A counter field introduced
into p9_fid struct to store the reference counter to the fid. When a fid
is allocated from the inode or dentry, the counter will increase, and
will decrease at the end of its occupation. It is guaranteed that the
fid won't be clunked before the reference counter go down to 0, then
we can avoid the clunked fid to be used.
tests:
race issue test from the old test case:
for file in {01..50}; do touch f.${file}; done
seq 1 1000 | xargs -n 1 -P 50 -I{} cat f.* > /dev/null
open-unlink-f*syscall test:
I have tested for f*syscall include: ftruncate fstat fchown fchmod faccessat.

This patch adds accounting of open fids in a list hanging off the i_private
field of the corresponding inode. This allows faster lookups compared to
searching the full 9p client list.
The lookup code is modified accordingly.

In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator
direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places.
Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather
then chains of bitwise-AND statements. This makes it easier to add further
iterator types. Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch
of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare
instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions.
Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function.
The iterator function can set that itself. Only the direction is required.

p9stat_read will call p9stat_free on error, we should only free the

There also is no need to "p9stat_init" st as the read function will
zero the whole struct for us anyway, so clean up the code a bit while
we are here.

Al Viro's IOV changes broke 9p readdir() because the new code
didn't abort the read when it returned nothing. The original
code checked if the combined error/length was <= 0 but in the
new code that accidentally got changed to just an error check.
Add back the return from the function when nothing is read.

... is really excessive. First of all, ->readdir() is serialized by
file->f_path.dentry->d_inode->i_mutex; playing with file->f_path.dentry->d_lock
is not buying you anything. Moreover, rdir->mutex is pointless for exactly
the same reason - you'll never see contention on it.
While we are at it, there's no point in having rdir->buf a pointer -
you have it point just past the end of rdir, so it might as well be a flex
array (and no, it's not a gccism).

SYNOPSIS
size[4] Tfsync tag[2] fid[4] datasync[4]
size[4] Rfsync tag[2]
DESCRIPTION
The Tfsync transaction transfers ("flushes") all modified in-core data of
file identified by fid to the disk device (or other permanent storage
device) where that file resides.
If datasync flag is specified data will be fleshed but does not flush
modified metadata unless that metadata is needed in order to allow a
subsequent data retrieval to be correctly handled.

This patch implements the kernel part of readdir() implementation for 9p2000.L
Change from V3: Instead of inode, server now sends qids for each dirent
SYNOPSIS
size[4] Treaddir tag[2] fid[4] offset[8] count[4]
size[4] Rreaddir tag[2] count[4] data[count]
DESCRIPTION
The readdir request asks the server to read the directory specified by 'fid'
at an offset specified by 'offset' and return as many dirent structures as
possible that fit into count bytes. Each dirent structure is laid out as
follows.
qid.type[1]
the type of the file (directory, etc.), represented as a bit
vector corresponding to the high 8 bits of the file's mode
word.
qid.vers[4]
version number for given path
qid.path[8]
the file server's unique identification for the file
offset[8]
offset into the next dirent.
type[1]
type of this directory entry.
name[256]
name of this directory entry.
This patch adds v9fs_dir_readdir_dotl() as the readdir() call for 9p2000.L.
This function sends P9_TREADDIR command to the server. In response the server
sends a buffer filled with dirent structures. This is different from the
existing v9fs_dir_readdir() call which receives stat structures from the server.
This results in significant speedup of readdir() on large directories.
For example, doing 'ls >/dev/null' on a directory with 10000 files on my
laptop takes 1.088 seconds with the existing code, but only takes 0.339 seconds
with the new readdir.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The patch below also addresses a couple of other corner cases in readdir
seen with a large (e.g. 64k) msize. I'm not sure what people think of
my co-opting of fid->aux here. I'd be happy to rework if there's a better
way.
When the size of the user supplied buffer passed to readdir is smaller
than the data returned in one go by the 9P read request, v9fs_dir_readdir()
currently discards extra data so that, on the next call, a 9P read
request will be issued with offset < previous offset + bytes returned,
which voilates the constraint described in paragraph 3 of read(5) description.
This patch preseves the leftover data in fid->aux for use in the next call.

Currently reading a directory is implemented in the client code.
This function is not actually a wire operation, but a meta operation

cleaner separation and will help when we reorganize the client functions

This patch add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) and use it.
See mm/filemap.c:
And changes the filemap_write_and_wait() and filemap_write_and_wait_range().
Current filemap_write_and_wait() doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite()
returns error. However, even if filemap_fdatawrite() returned an
error, it may have submitted the partially data pages to the device.
(e.g. in the case of -ENOSPC)

Andrew Morton writes,
If filemap_fdatawrite() returns an error, this might be due to some
I/O problem: dead disk, unplugged cable, etc. Given the generally
crappy quality of the kernel's handling of such exceptions, there's a
good chance that the filemap_fdatawait() will get stuck in D state
forever.
</quotation>
So, this patch doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns the -EIO.
Trond, could you please review the nfs part? Especially I'm not sure,
nfs must use the "filemap_fdatawrite(inode->i_mapping) == 0", or not.

Fid management cleanup. The patch attempts to fix the races in dentry's
fid management.
Dentries don't keep the opened fids anymore, they are moved to the file
structs. Ideally there should be no more than one fid with fidcreate equal
to zero in the dentry's list of fids.
v9fs_fid_create initializes the important fields (fid, fidcreated) before
v9fs_fid is added to the list. v9fs_fid_lookup returns only fids that are
not created by v9fs_create. v9fs_fid_get_created returns the fid created
by the same process by v9fs_create (if any) and removes it from dentry's
list
