dax, xfs, ext4: compile out iomap-dax paths in the FS_DAX=n case

2017-05-14T00:52:16+00:00

Tetsuo reports:

  fs/built-in.o: In function `xfs_file_iomap_end':
  xfs_iomap.c:(.text+0xe0ef9): undefined reference to `put_dax'
  fs/built-in.o: In function `xfs_file_iomap_begin':

  make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
  $ grep DAX .config
  CONFIG_DAX=m
  # CONFIG_DEV_DAX is not set
  # CONFIG_FS_DAX is not set

When FS_DAX=n we can/must throw away the dax code in filesystems.
Implement 'fs_' versions of dax_get_by_host() and put_dax() that are
nops in the FS_DAX=n case.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
 "Incremental fixes and a small feature addition on top of the main
  libnvdimm 4.12 pull request:

   - Geert noticed that tinyconfig was bloated by BLOCK selecting DAX.
     The size regression is fixed by moving all dax helpers into the
     dax-core and only specifying "select DAX" for FS_DAX and
     dax-capable drivers. He also asked for clarification of the
     NR_DEV_DAX config option which, on closer look, does not need to be
     a config option at all. Mike also throws in a DEV_DAX_PMEM fixup
     for good measure.

   - Ben's attention to detail on -stable patch submissions caught a
     case where the recent fixes to arch_copy_from_iter_pmem() missed a
     condition where we strand dirty data in the cache. This is tagged
     for -stable and will also be included in the rework of the pmem api
     to a proposed {memcpy,copy_user}_flushcache() interface for 4.13.

   - Vishal adds a feature that missed the initial pull due to pending
     review feedback. It allows the kernel to clear media errors when
     initializing a BTT (atomic sector update driver) instance on a pmem
     namespace.

   - Ross noticed that the dax_device + dax_operations conversion broke
     __dax_zero_page_range(). The nvdimm unit tests fail to check this
     path, but xfstests immediately trips over it. No excuse for missing
     this before submitting the 4.12 pull request.

  These all pass the nvdimm unit tests and an xfstests spot check. The
  set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot"

2017-05-08T17:55:27+00:00

For configurations that do not enable DAX filesystems or drivers, do not
require the DAX core to be built.

Given that the 'direct_access' method has been removed from
'block_device_operations', we can also go ahead and remove the
block-related dax helper functions from fs/block_dev.c to
drivers/dax/super.c. This keeps dax details out of the block layer and
lets the DAX core be built as a module in the FS_DAX=n case.

Filesystems need to include dax.h to call bdev_dax_supported().

2017-05-06T01:49:20+00:00

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few
  late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last
  couple days, but the whole set has received a build success
  notification from the kbuild robot.

  Change summary:

   - Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the
     parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been
     reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block
     devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that
     namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new
     interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of
     namespace modes or state.

     This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1
     Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error"
     requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus
     devices.

   - Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted
     by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for
     dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations.
     This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are
     related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for
     other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent
     memory support.

   - 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is
     available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger
     memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would
     otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR
     (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event.
     Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from
     surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally,
     fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for
     -stable.

   - ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to
     add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM
     payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

ext2: Remove ext2_get_inode_flags()

2017-04-19T12:21:23+00:00

Now that all places setting inode->i_flags that should be reflected in
on-disk flags are gone, we can remove ext2_get_inode_flags() call.

ext2: Set flags on quota files directly

2017-04-19T12:21:23+00:00

Currently immutable and noatime flags on quota files are set by quota
code which requires us to copy inode->i_flags to our on disk version of
quota flags in GETFLAGS ioctl and __ext2_write_inode().  Move to setting
/ clearing these on-disk flags directly to save that copying.

ext2: Call dquot_writeback_dquots() with s_umount held

2017-04-05T12:23:45+00:00

ext2_sync_fs() could be called without s_umount semaphore held when
called through ext2_write_super() from __ext2_write_inode(). This
function then calls dquot_writeback_dquots() which relies on s_umount to
be held for protection against other quota operations.

In fact __ext2_write_inode() does not need all the functionality
ext2_write_super() provides. It is enough to just write the superblock.
So use ext2_sync_super() instead.

it's still a net win, because  is included in over

mm: replace FAULT_FLAG_SIZE with parameter to huge_fault

2017-02-25T01:46:54+00:00

Since the introduction of FAULT_FLAG_SIZE to the vm_fault flag, it has
been somewhat painful with getting the flags set and removed at the
correct locations.  More than one kernel oops was introduced due to
difficulties of getting the placement correctly.

Remove the flag values and introduce an input parameter to huge_fault
that indicates the size of the page entry.  This makes the code easier
to trace and should avoid the issues we see with the fault flags where
removal of the flag was necessary in the fallback paths.
