netfs: Fix write oops in generic/346 (9p) and generic/074 (cifs) In netfslib, a buffered writeback operation has a 'write queue' of folios that are being written, held in a linear sequence of folio_queue structs. The 'issuer' adds new folio_queues on the leading edge of the queue and populates each one progressively; the 'collector' pops them off the trailing edge and discards them and the folios they point to as they are consumed. The queue is required to always retain at least one folio_queue structure. This allows the queue to be accessed without locking and with just a bit of barriering. When a new subrequest is prepared, its ->io_iter iterator is pointed at the current end of the write queue and then the iterator is extended as more data is added to the queue until the subrequest is committed. Now, the problem is that the folio_queue at the leading edge of the write queue when a subrequest is prepared might have been entirely consumed - but not yet removed from the queue as it is the only remaining one and is preventing the queue from collapsing. So, what happens is that subreq->io_iter is pointed at the spent folio_queue, then a new folio_queue is added, and, at that point, the collector is at entirely at liberty to immediately delete the spent folio_queue. This leaves the subreq->io_iter pointing at a freed object. If the system is lucky, iterate_folioq() sees ->io_iter, sees the as-yet uncorrupted freed object and advances to the next folio_queue in the queue. In the case seen, however, the freed object gets recycled and put back onto the queue at the tail and filled to the end. This confuses iterate_folioq() and it tries to step ->next, which may be NULL - resulting in an oops. Fix this by the following means: (1) When preparing a write subrequest, make sure there's a folio_queue struct with space in it at the leading edge of the queue. A function to make space is split out of the function to append a folio so that it can be called for this purpose. (2) If the request struct iterator is pointing to a completely spent folio_queue when we make space, then advance the iterator to the newly allocated folio_queue. The subrequest's iterator will then be set from this. The oops could be triggered using the generic/346 xfstest with a filesystem on9P over TCP with cache=loose. The oops looked something like: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page ...

netfs: Replace PG_fscache by setting folio->private and marking dirty When dirty data is being written to the cache, setting/waiting on/clearing the fscache flag is always done in tandem with setting/waiting on/clearing the writeback flag. The netfslib buffered write routines wait on and set both flags and the write request cleanup clears both flags, so the fscache flag is almost superfluous. The reason it isn't superfluous is because the fscache flag is also used to indicate that data just read from the server is being written to the cache. The flag is used to prevent a race involving overlapping direct-I/O writes to the cache. Change this to indicate that a page is in need of being copied to the cache by placing a magic value in folio->private and marking the folios dirty. Then when the writeback code sees a folio marked in this way, it only writes it to the cache and not to the server. If a folio that has this magic value set is modified, the value is just replaced and the folio will then be uplodaded too. With this, PG_fscache is no longer required by the netfslib core, 9p and afs. Ceph and nfs, however, still need to use the old PG_fscache-based tracking. To deal with this, a flag, NETFS_ICTX_USE_PGPRIV2, now has to be set on the flags in the netfs_inode struct for those filesystems. This reenables the use of PG_fscache in that inode. 9p and afs use the netfslib write helpers so get switched over; cifs, for the moment, does page-by-page manual access to the cache, so doesn't use PG_fscache and is unaffected.

netfs: Optimise away reads above the point at which there can be no data Track the file position above which the server is not expected to have any data (the "zero point") and preemptively assume that we can satisfy requests by filling them with zeroes locally rather than attempting to download them if they're over that line - even if we've written data back to the server. Assume that any data that was written back above that position is held in the local cache. Note that we have to split requests that straddle the line. Make use of this to optimise away some reads from the server. We need to set the zero point in the following circumstances: (1) When we see an extant remote inode and have no cache for it, we set the zero_point to i_size. (2) On local inode creation, we set zero_point to 0. (3) On local truncation down, we reduce zero_point to the new i_size if the new i_size is lower. (4) On local truncation up, we don't change zero_point. (5) On local modification, we don't change zero_point. (6) On remote invalidation, we set zero_point to the new i_size. (7) If stored data is discarded from the pagecache or culled from fscache, we must set zero_point above that if the data also got written to the server. (8) If dirty data is written back to the server, but not fscache, we must set zero_point above that. (9) If a direct I/O write is made, set zero_point above that. Assuming the above, any read from the server at or above the zero_point position will return all zeroes. The zero_point value can be stored in the cache, provided the above rules are applied to it by any code that culls part of the local cache.
