RFC: allow building a kernel without buffer_heads

RFC: allow building a kernel without buffer_heads

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi all,

after all the talk about removing buffer_heads, here is a series that
shows how to build a kernel without buffer_heads.  And how unrealistic
it is to remove the entirely.

Most of the series refactors some common code to make implementing direct
I/O easier without use of the ->direct_IO method and the helpers based
around it.  It then switches buffered writes (but not writeback) for
block devices to use iomap unconditionally, but still using buffer_heads.

The final patch then adds a CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD selected by all file
systems that need it (which is most block based file systems), makes the
buffer_head support in iomap optional, and adds an alternative
implementation of the block device address_operations using iomap.

With this you can build a kernel with block device support, but without
buffer_heads.  This kernel supports xfs and btrfs as full blown block
based filesystems, and a bunch of read-only ones like cramfs, erofs and
squashfs.  Note that the md software raid drivers is also disabled as it
has some (rather questionable) buffer_head usage in the unconditionally
built bitmap code.

The series is based on Linux 6.3 and will need some rebasing before it
can be fed to the maintainers incrementally.  All but the last patch
definitively seem useful for me.  The last one I think is just to avoid
introducing new buffer_head dependencies, even if I suspect the real
life usefulness of a !CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD kernel might be rather limited.

[PATCH 01/17] fs: unexport buffer_check_dirty_writeback

[Christoph Hellwig]

buffer_check_dirty_writeback is only used by the block device aops,
remove the export.

[PATCH 02/17] fs: remove the special !CONFIG_BLOCK def_blk_fops

[Christoph Hellwig]

def_blk_fops always returns -ENODEV, which dosn't match the return value
of a non-existing block device with CONFIG_BLOCK, which is -ENXIO.
Just remove the extra implementation and fall back to the default
no_open_fops that always returns -ENXIO.

[PATCH 03/17] fs: rename and move block_page_mkwrite_return

[Christoph Hellwig]

block_page_mkwrite_return is neither block nor mkwrite specific, and
should not be under CONFIG_BLOCK.  Move it to mm.h and rename it to
errno_to_vmfault.

[PATCH 06/17] filemap: add a kiocb_write_and_wait helper

[Christoph Hellwig]

Factor out a helper that does filemap_write_and_wait_range for a the
range covered by a read kiocb, or returns -EAGAIN if the kiocb
is marked as nowait and there would be pages to write.

[PATCH 07/17] filemap: add a kiocb_invalidate_pages helper

[Christoph Hellwig]

Factor out a helper that calls filemap_write_and_wait_range and
invalidate_inode_pages2_rangefor a the range covered by a write kiocb or
returns -EAGAIN if the kiocb is marked as nowait and there would be pages
to write or invalidate.

[PATCH 10/17] iomap: use kiocb_write_and_wait and kiocb_invalidate_pages

[Christoph Hellwig]

Use the common helpers for direct I/O page invalidation instead of
open coding the logic.  This leads to a slight reordering of checks
in __iomap_dio_rw to keep the logic straight.

[PATCH 11/17] iomap: assign current->backing_dev_info in iomap_file_buffered_write

[Christoph Hellwig]

Move the assignment to current->backing_dev_info from the callers into
iomap_file_buffered_write.  Note that zonefs was missing this assignment
before.

[PATCH 12/17] fuse: use direct_write_fallback

[Christoph Hellwig]

Refator the fuse direct write code so that the fuse_perform_write
callig convention is simplified to match generic_perform_write and
it's updating ki_pos directly, and the generic direct_write_fallback
helper is used to consolidate buffered I/O fallback code.

[PATCH 13/17] block: don't plug in blkdev_write_iter

[Christoph Hellwig]

Remove the no needed plug in blkdev_write_iter.  For direct I/O that
issues more than a single I/O, the plug is already done in
__blkdev_direct_IO, and for synchronous buffered writes, the plug
is done in writeback_inodes_wb / wb_writeback, while for the other
cases a plug doesn't make sense.

[PATCH 17/17] fs: add CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD

[Christoph Hellwig]

Add a new config option that controls building the buffer_head code, and
select it from all file systems and stacking drivers that need it.

For the block device nodes and alternative iomap based buffered I/O path
is provided when buffer_head support is not enabled, and iomap needs a
little tweak to be able to compile out the buffer_head based code path.

Otherwise this is just Kconfig and ifdef changes.

Dumb question from me late on a Sunday night, but does the iomap_unshare
code need to set this too?  Since it works by dirtying pagecache folios
without actually changing the contents?

A very good question that I have no answer for.  The
current->backing_dev_info mechanism confuses the heck out of me and
appears basically undocumented.

Could you move it about 300 lines down and put it near vmf_error()
so we think about how to unify the two at some point?

Perhaps it should better be called vmf_fs_error() for now since the
errnos it handles are the kind generated by filesystems.

I'll look into unifying them for the next version.

We've actually got a similar situation with
iomap_file_buffered_write() and its callers. Would it make sense to
fix that up as well?

It looks like def_blk_fops is being removed (commit message and patch
fragment below), but here (above line) it is being used.

Am I just confused?

The def_blk_fops is removed only for the !CONFIG_BLOCK case. Its usage is under
a branch known at compile time, so it's optimized out for that case before
trying to resolve the symbol.

This needs to be FS_IOMAP.

We've tested this with bs > ps (LBS) devices and it would seem it crashes,
as Pankaj notes perhaps due to lack of higher order folio support yet
on this path, for the block cache. The same crash happens with NVMe
(using out-of-tree nvme_core.debug_large_lbas boot parameter to enable NVMe
LBS) or brd with LBS. To enable NVMe LBS or brd with LBS you need
out of tree patches though of course, so I've stashed these into
a branch, large-block-20230426 [0] so to help folks who may want
to experiment further.

RSI is argument 2, which is folio.

Code starting with the faulting instruction
===========================================
   0:	48 8b 06             	mov    (%rsi),%rax
   3:	48 c1 e8 0d          	shr    $0xd,%rax

Looks to me like a NULL folio was passed into iomap_page_create().

... that shouldn't be possible.  read_pages() allocates pages, puts them
in the page cache and tells the filesystem to fill them in.

In your patches, did you call mapping_set_large_folios() anywhere?

No but the only place to add that would be in the block cache. Adding
that alone to the block cache doesn't fix the issue. The below patch
however does get us by.

From my readings it does't seem like readahead_folio() should always
return non-NULL, and also I couldn't easily verify the math is right.
The max cap I see is for the backing device io_size, but there are
some other heuristics which will take me some time to try to grok
to understand if they are correct.

That's "working around the error", not fixing it ... probably the same
root cause as your other errors; at least I'm not diving into them until
the obvious one is fixed.

readahead_folio() always returns non-NULL.  That's guaranteed by how
page_cache_ra_unbounded() and page_cache_ra_order() work.  It allocates
folios, until it can't (already-present folio, ENOMEM, EOF, max batch
size) and then calls the filesystem to make those folios uptodate,
telling it how many folios it put in the page cache, where they start.

Hm.  The fact that it's coming from page_cache_ra_unbounded() makes
me wonder if you updated this line:

                folio = filemap_alloc_folio(gfp_mask, 0);

without updating this line:

                ractl->_nr_pages++;

This is actually number of pages, not number of folios, so needs to be
		ractl->_nr_pages += 1 << order;

various other parts of page_cache_ra_unbounded() need to be examined
carefully for assumptions of order-0; it's never been used for that
before.  all the large folio work has concentrated on
page_cache_ra_order()

I already had a patch which did the following:

ractl->_nr_pages += folio_nr_pages(folio);

but the variable `i` in the loop was not updated properly (assumption of zero order folio). This now
fixes the crash:

As you have noted here, this needs to be examined more carefully. Even though the patches fix the
crash, fio with verify option fails (i.e write and read are not giving the same output).

I think it is better to send an RFC patch series on top of Christoph's work with optional
BUFFER_HEAD to iron out some core issues/bugs.

Why is filemap_get_pages() using unbounded readahead? Surely
readahead should be limited to reading within EOF....

I think Christoph's code is correct. IMO, any attempt to read beyond
the end of the device should throw out a warning and return an
error, not silently return zeros.

If readahead is trying to read beyond the end of the device, then it
really seems to me like the problem here is readahead, not the iomap
code detecting the OOB read request....

Cheers,

Dave.

It isn't using unbounded readahead; that's an artifact of this
incomplete stack trace.  Actual call stack:

page_cache_ra_unbounded
do_page_cache_ra
ondemand_readahead
page_cache_sync_ra
page_cache_sync_readahead
filemap_get_pages

As you can see, do_page_cache_ra() does limit readahead to i_size.
Is ractl->mapping->host the correct way to find the inode?  I always
get confused.

Written can be negative here after blkdev_direct_IO()

And we'll then use it here on iov_iter_revert() and this can crash on
with some values. For example this can crash on a 4k write attempt
on a 32k drive when experimenting wit large block sizes.

As willy said this should be taken care of by the i_size check.
Did you run with just this patch set or some of the large block
size experiments on top which might change the variables?

I'll repost the series today without any chances in the area, and
if you can reproduce it with just that series we need to root
cause it, so please send your kernel and VM config along for the
next report.

As far as I can tell it is the right inode, the indirection through
file->f_mapping ensures it actually points to the backing inode.
