[PATCH 0/3] DAX: Fix mmap-write not updating c/mtime

[PATCH 0/3] DAX: Fix mmap-write not updating c/mtime

[Boaz Harrosh]

Hi

First submitted an xfstest (generic/080) that demonstrates our current problem.

   When run on ext4-dax mount, and I'd imagine Dave's xfs-dax mount this test
   fails, on regular mount it works just fine.

then 2 patches to fix it.

The main problem is that current mm/memory.c will no call us with page_mkwrite
if we do not have an actual page mapping, which is what DAX uses.
The solution presented here introduces a new pfn_mkwrite to solve this problem.
Please see patch-2 for details.

I've been running with this patch for 4 month both HW and VMs with no apparent
danger, but see patch-2 I played it safe.

List of patches:
[PATCH 1/2] generic: 080 test that mmap-write updates c/mtime

	This one is for Dave Chinner to submit to xfstests

[PATCH 1/2] mm: New pfn_mkwrite same as page_mkwrite for VM_PFNMAP

	This patch I need help with please look into it?

[PATCH 2/2] dax: use pfn_mkwrite to update mtime

Please review and comment.

Thanks
Boaz

This is a lot more complex than it needs to be - xfs_io does
everything we already need, so the test really just needs to
follow the template set out by generic/309. i.e:


# pattern the file.
$XFS_IO_PROG -f -c "pwrite 0 64k" -c fsync $testfile | _filter_xfs_io

# sample timestamps.
mtime1=`stat -c %Y $testfile`
ctime1=`stat -c %Z $testfile`

# map read followed by map write to trigger timestamp change
sleep 2
$XFS_IO_PROG -c "mmap 0 64k" -c "mread 0 64k" -c "mwrite 0 4k" $testfile |_filter_xfs_io

# sample and check timestamps have changed.
mtime2=`stat -c %Y $testsfile`
ctime2=`stat -c %Z $testsfile`

if [ "$mtime1" == "$mtime2" ]; then
        echo "mtime not updated"
        let status=$status+1
fi
if [ "$ctime1" == "$ctime2" ]; then
        echo "ctime not updated"
        let status=$status+1
fi

Dave hands-up man, it looks like you edited this directly

We have tested this both with and without the pfn_mkwrite patch.
And it works as expected fails without and success with.

[PATCH 1/3 v2 resend] xfstest: generic/080 test that mmap-write updates c/mtime

[Boaz Harrosh]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

when using mmap() for file i/o, writing to the file should update
it's c/mtime. Specifically if we first mmap-read from a page, then
memap-write to the same page.

This test was failing for the initial submission of DAX because
pfn based mapping do not have an page_mkwrite called for them.
The new Kernel patches that introduce pfn_mkwrite fixes this test.

Dave hands-up man, it looks like you edited this directly
in the email, but there was not even a single typo.

We have tested this both with and without the pfn_mkwrite patch.
And it works as expected fails without and success with.

rm -f $testfile ? as you have testfile defined

Also please use single tab to indent, not 4 spaces (the 'new' script has
been fixed too)

_filter_xfs_io seems unnecessary, the output is not going to .out file
but to $seqres.full

checkpatch.pl complains :)

WARNING: 'Need-reviewed-by:' is the preferred signature form

I tested it with xfs/ext4/btrfs/nfs and cifs, cifs failed the test.

The test looks good to me (with one nitpick below).

Re: [PATCH v4] xfstest: generic/080 test that mmap-write updates c/mtime

[Boaz Harrosh]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

when using mmap() for file i/o, writing to the file should update
it's c/mtime. Specifically if we first mmap-read from a page, then
memap-write to the same page.

This test was failing for the initial submission of DAX because
pfn based mapping do not have an page_mkwrite called for them.
The new Kernel patches that introduce pfn_mkwrite fixes this test.

[PATCH 2/3] mm: New pfn_mkwrite same as page_mkwrite for VM_PFNMAP

[Boaz Harrosh]

From: Yigal Korman <yigal@plexistor.com>

This will allow FS that uses VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP (no page structs)
to get notified when access is a write to a read-only PFN.

This can happen if we mmap() a file then first mmap-read from it
to page-in a read-only PFN, than we mmap-write to the same page.

We need this functionality to fix a DAX bug, where in the scenario
above we fail to set ctime/mtime though we modified the file.
An xfstest is attached to this patchset that shows the failure
and the fix. (A DAX patch will follow)

This functionality is extra important for us, because upon
dirtying of a pmem page we also want to RDMA the page to a
remote cluster node.

We define a new pfn_mkwrite and do not reuse page_mkwrite because
  1 - The name ;-)
  2 - But mainly because it would take a very long and tedious
      audit of all page_mkwrite functions of VM_MIXEDMAP/VM_PFNMAP
      users. To make sure they do not now CRASH. For example current
      DAX code (which this is for) would crash.
      If we would want to reuse page_mkwrite, We will need to first
      patch all users, so to not-crash-on-no-page. Then enable this
      patch. But even if I did that I would not sleep so well at night.
      Adding a new vector is the safest thing to do, and is not that
      expensive. an extra pointer at a static function vector per driver.
      Also the new vector is better for performance, because else we
      Will call all current Kernel vectors, so to:
	check-ha-no-page-do-nothing and return.

No need to call it from do_shared_fault because do_wp_page is called to
change pte permissions anyway.

  Hum, you likely want a freeze protection in there as well
(sb_start_pagefault() and sb_end_pagefault()). Don't you?  Otherwise user
could start writing to the page while filesystem is frozen.  That's another
bug you could mention in your description.

[PATCH 3/3 v2] dax: use pfn_mkwrite to update c/mtime + freeze protection

[Boaz Harrosh]

From: Yigal Korman <yigal@plexistor.com>

[v1]
Without this patch, c/mtime is not updated correctly when mmap'ed page is
first read from and then written to.

A new xfstest is submitted for testing this (generic/080)

[v2]
Jan Kara has pointed out that if we add the
sb_start/end_pagefault pair in the new pfn_mkwrite we
are then fixing another bug where: A user could start
writing to the page while filesystem is frozen.

Thanks Jan.

Just as curiosity, does the freezing code goes and turns all mappings
into read-only, Also for pfn mapping?

Do you think there is already an xfstest freezing test that should now
fail, and will succeed after this patch (v2). Something like:
  * mmap-read/write before the freeze
  * freeze the fs
  * Another thread tries to mmap-write, should get stuck
  * unfreeze the fs
  * Now mmap-writer continues

Thanks again
Boaz

  Hum, that's a good question. Probably we don't end up doing that. For
normal filesystems we sync all inodes which also writeprotects all pages
(in clear_page_dirty_for_io() - for normal filesystems we know that if page
is writeably mapped it is dirty). However this won't happen for pfn
mapping as we don't have dirty pages. So we probably need dax_freeze()
implementation that will walk through all inodes with writeable mappings and
writeprotect them.

  I don't remember there would be any test to specifically test this.

  I don't remember there would be any test to specifically test this.

I'll go head and try my shot on implementing a dax_freeze(). But I will
please need help with where to call it from.

Probably something like:
	if (IS_DAX(inode))
		dax_freeze(inode);
	else
		sync(inode)

So to share the for-all-inodes-in-sb loop. And also the IS_DAX(inode)
is per inode, for example dirs need the regular sync (if they are using page cache)

OK Thanks, I was hopping we should already test for mmap vs freeze. This
is not special for our case. Actually mmap is the most fragile access.

  We normally call sync_filesystem() from fs/superblock:freeze_super(). For
DAX filesystems we'd also need to call the special function after that.
Maybe dax_freeze() isn't the best name. It could be called something like
dax_writeprotect(sb) or something like that.

Maybe dax_freeze() isn't the best name. It could be called something like
dax_writeprotect(sb) or something like that.
