Remove special cased hugetlb handling code within the page cache by
changing the granularity of -&gt;index to the base page size rather than the
huge page size.  The motivation of this patch is to reduce complexity
within the filemap code while also increasing performance by removing
branches that are evaluated on every page cache lookup.

To support the change in index, new wrappers for hugetlb page cache
interactions are added.  These wrappers perform the conversion to a linear
index which is now expected by the page cache for huge pages.

========================= PERFORMANCE ======================================

Perf was used to check the performance differences after the patch. 
Overall the performance is similar to mainline with a very small larger
overhead that occurs in __filemap_add_folio() and
hugetlb_add_to_page_cache().  This is because of the larger overhead that
occurs in xa_load() and xa_store() as the xarray is now using more entries
to store hugetlb folios in the page cache.

This is the folio equivalent of page_mapping_file(), but rename it to make
it clear that it's very different from page_file_mapping(). 
Theoretically, there's nothing flush-only about it, but there are no other
users today, and I doubt there will be; it's almost always more useful to
know the swapfile's mapping or the swapcache's mapping.

This is the folio equivalent of page_mapping_file(), but rename it to make
it clear that it's very different from page_file_mapping(). 
Theoretically, there's nothing flush-only about it, but there are no other
users today, and I doubt there will be; it's almost always more useful to
know the swapfile's mapping or the swapcache's mapping.

<title>mm, netfs, fscache: stop read optimisation when folio removed from pagecache</title>
<updated>2023-08-18T17:12:13+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=b4fa966f03b7401ceacd4ffd7227197afb2b8376'/>
<id>b4fa966f03b7401ceacd4ffd7227197afb2b8376</id>
<content type='text'>
Fscache has an optimisation by which reads from the cache are skipped
until we know that (a) there's data there to be read and (b) that data
isn't entirely covered by pages resident in the netfs pagecache.  This is
done with two flags manipulated by fscache_note_page_release():

	if (...
	    test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_HAVE_DATA, &amp;cookie-&gt;flags) &amp;&amp;
	    test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &amp;cookie-&gt;flags))
		clear_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &amp;cookie-&gt;flags);

where the NO_DATA_TO_READ flag causes cachefiles_prepare_read() to
indicate that netfslib should download from the server or clear the page
instead.

The fscache_note_page_release() function is intended to be called from
-&gt;releasepage() - but that only gets called if PG_private or PG_private_2
is set - and currently the former is at the discretion of the network
filesystem and the latter is only set whilst a page is being written to
the cache, so sometimes we miss clearing the optimisation.

Fix this by following Willy's suggestion[1] and adding an address_space
flag, AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS, that causes filemap_release_folio() to always call
-&gt;release_folio() if it's set, even if PG_private or PG_private_2 aren't
set.

Note that this would require folio_test_private() and page_has_private() to
become more complicated.  To avoid that, in the places[*] where these are
used to conditionalise calls to filemap_release_folio() and
try_to_release_page(), the tests are removed the those functions just
jumped to unconditionally and the test is performed there.

[*] There are some exceptions in vmscan.c where the check guards more than
just a call to the releaser.  I've added a function, folio_needs_release()
to wrap all the checks for that.

AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS should be set if a non-NULL cookie is obtained from
fscache and cleared in -&gt;evict_inode() before truncate_inode_pages_final()
is called.

Additionally, the FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ flag needs to be cleared
and the optimisation cancelled if a cachefiles object already contains data
when we open it.

Allow callers of __filemap_get_folio() to specify a preferred folio
order in the FGP flags.  This is only honoured in the FGP_CREATE path;
if there is already a folio in the page cache that covers the index,
we will return it, no matter what its order is.  No create-around is
attempted; we will only create folios which start at the specified index.
Unmodified callers will continue to allocate order 0 folios.

Similarly to gfp_t, define fgf_t as its own type to prevent various
misuses and confusion.  Leave the flags as FGP_* for now to reduce the
size of this patch; they will be converted to FGF_* later.  Move the
documentation to the definition of the type insted of burying it in the
__filemap_get_folio() documentation.
