This means that the cache uses a lot less memory than it did and is faster than it was. A netfs helper library is provided that handles most of the readpage, readahead and write_begin ops on behalf of the filesystem. This is intended to be used unconditionally by the filesystem and provides a common framework for doing caching, transparent huge pages (which works with AFS) and, in the future, possibly fscrypt. It also allows the netfs and the cache to align, expand and slice up a read request from the VM in various ways; the netfs need only provide a function to read a stretch of data to the pagecache and the helper takes care of the rest. This patch series ports the AFS filesystem to the new API and disables caching in NFS, Ceph, CIFS and 9P. Jeff Layton has a port for Ceph that is solid and Dave Wysochanski has one for NFS that is mostly solid. I've given partial ports to 9P and CIFS to Dominique Martinet and Steve French respectively. -~- To this end, the fscache API has been massively overhauled. Code that was using the old API is now disabled. It's not practical to have the two APIs coexist because they have totally different ways of doing things, but must share common data. The following parts have been removed: - The object state machine - The I/O operation manager - All non-transient references from fscache to the netfs's data - All non-transient callbacks from fscache to the netfs - The backing page I/O monitoring - The tracking of netfs pages that fscache knows about - The tracking of netfs pages that need writing to the cache - The use of bmap to work out if a page is stored in the cache - The copy of data to/from backing pages to netfs pages. Instead, the I/O to the cache is driven much more from the netfs and the netfs helpers. There are a number of aspects to the I/O API: (1) The lowest level I/O primitives just take an iov_iter and start async DIO on the cache objects. The caller gets a callback upon completion. The PG_fscache bit is now just used to indicate that there's a write to the cache in progress. The cache will keep track in xattrs as to what areas of the backing file are occupied. - fscache_begin_operation(), fscache_end_operation() - fscache_read() and fscache_write(). (2) The cookie that's obtained when an inode is set up must be 'used' when a file is opened (with an indication as to whether it might be modified) and 'unused' when it is done with. At the point of unuse, the auxdata and file size can be specified. - fscache_use_cookie(), fscache_unuse_cookie() (3) The cookie can be invalidated at any time, and new auxiliary data and a new size provided. Any in-progress I/O will either cause new I/O to wait, or a replacement tmpfile will be created and the in-progress I/O will just be abandoned. The on-disk auxdata (in xattrs, say) are updated lazily. - fscache_invalidate() (4) The netfs helpers for read are provided to combine the (1), (2) above and do read-(re)issue to the network in the case that the data isn't present or the cache fails. This requires that an operation descriptor be allocated and given some operations. This needs to be used for ->readpage(), ->readahead() and prefetching for ->write_begin(). ->readpages() is obsolete and soon to go away. - include/linux/netfs.h - netfs_readpage(), netfs_readahead(), netfs_begin_write() (5) There are some helpers to keep a cookie in use once a file has been closed so that writeback can write to the cache. write_inode and evict inode need to clear this. - fscache_set_page_dirty(), fscache_unpin_writeback() - fscache_write_to_cache() I've also simplified the cookie management API to remove struct fscache_cookie_def. Instead, the pertinent details are supplied when a cookie is created and the file size, key and auxdata are stored in the cookie. Callbacks and backpointers are simply removed. I've added some pieces outside of the API also: (1) An inode flag to mark a backing cachefile as being in use by the kernel. This prevents multiple caches mounted in the same directory from fighting over the same files. It can also be extended to exclude other kernel users (such as swap) and could also be used to prevent userspace interfering with the file. (2) A new I/O iterator class, ITER_XARRAY, that iterates over the specified byte range of an xarray. The caller is required to make sure that the pages don't evaporate under the callee (eg. pinning them by PG_locked, PG_writeback, PG_fscache or usage count). This is better than an ITER_BVEC as no allocation of bio_vec structs is required since the xarray holds pointers to all the pages involved. (3) Wait and unlock functions for PG_fscache. These are in the core, so no need to call into fscache for it. Future stuff: (1) Avoid the need to double-truncate a backing file on relinquishment. The first truncate cuts of rubbish data from the end so that it's not retrieved in future; the second expands the EOF back out to DIO block size. (2) Add a write helper to improve on generic_perform_write(), allowing a span of pages to be modified as a block and to take account of cache granularity. (3) Put in support for versioned monolithic objects (eg. AFS directories). (4) Currently it cachefiles only caches large files up to 1GiB. File data beyond that isn't cached. The problem here is that I'm using an xattr to hold the content map, and xattrs may be limited in size and I've limited myself to using a 512 byte xattr. I can easily make it cache a non-sparse file of any size with no map, but as soon as it becomes sparse, I need a different strategy. (5) Change the indexing strategy so that the culling mechanism is brought into the kernel, rather than doing that in userspace, and use an index table of files with a LRU list. (6) Add support for throttling readahead when the server pushes back (cifs credits).
