readahead: introduce context readahead algorithm
Introduce page cache context based readahead algorithm.
This is to better support concurrent read streams in general.
RATIONALE
---------
The current readahead algorithm detects interleaved reads in a _passive_ way.
Given a sequence of interleaved streams 1,1001,2,1002,3,4,1003,5,1004,1005,6,...
By checking for (offset == prev_offset + 1), it will discover the sequentialness
between 3,4 and between 1004,1005, and start doing sequential readahead for the
individual streams since page 4 and page 1005.
The context readahead algorithm guarantees to discover the sequentialness no
matter how the streams are interleaved. For the above example, it will start
sequential readahead since page 2 and 1002.
The trick is to poke for page @offset-1 in the page cache when it has no other
clues on the sequentialness of request @offset: if the current requenst belongs
to a sequential stream, that stream must have accessed page @offset-1 recently,
and the page will still be cached now. So if page @offset-1 is there, we can
take request @offset as a sequential access.
BENEFICIARIES
-------------
- strictly interleaved reads i.e. 1,1001,2,1002,3,1003,...
the current readahead will take them as silly random reads;
the context readahead will take them as two sequential streams.
- cooperative IO processes i.e. NFS and SCST
They create a thread pool, farming off (sequential) IO requests to different
threads which will be performing interleaved IO.
It was not easy(or possible) to reliably tell from file->f_ra all those
cooperative processes working on the same sequential stream, since they will
have different file->f_ra instances. And NFSD's file->f_ra is particularly
unusable, since their file objects are dynamically created for each request.
The nfsd does have code trying to restore the f_ra bits, but not satisfactory.
The new scheme is to detect the sequential pattern via looking up the page
cache, which provides one single and consistent view of the pages recently
accessed. That makes sequential detection for cooperative processes possible.
USER REPORT
-----------
Vladislav recommends the addition of context readahead as a result of his SCST
benchmarks. It leads to 6%~40% performance gains in various cases and achieves
equal performance in others. http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/19/239
OVERHEADS
---------
In theory, it introduces one extra page cache lookup per random read. However
the below benchmark shows context readahead to be slightly faster, wondering..
Randomly reading 200MB amount of data on a sparse file, repeat 20 times for
each block size. The average throughputs are:
original ra context ra gain
4K random reads: 65.561MB/s 65.648MB/s +0.1%
16K random reads: 124.767MB/s 124.951MB/s +0.1%
64K random reads: 162.123MB/s 162.278MB/s +0.1%

readahead: record mmap read-around states in file_ra_state
Mmap read-around now shares the same code style and data structure with
readahead code.
This also removes do_page_cache_readahead(). Its last user, mmap
read-around, has been changed to call ra_submit().
The no-readahead-if-congested logic is dumped by the way. Users will be
pretty sensitive about the slow loading of executables. So it's
unfavorable to disabled mmap read-around on a congested queue.

readahead: enforce full readahead size on async mmap readahead
We need this in one particular case and two more general ones.
Now we do async readahead for sequential mmap reads, and do it with the
help of PG_readahead. For normal reads, PG_readahead is the sufficient
condition to do a sequential readahead. But unfortunately, for mmap
reads, there is a tiny nuisance:
[11736.998347] readahead-init0(process: sh/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:
4503599627370495, ra=0+4-3) = 4

[11737.019488] readahead-around(process: w3m/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:0, ra=118+32-0) = 32
[11737.024921] readahead-interleaved(process: w3m/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:2, ra=4+6-6) = 6
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An unfavorably small readahead. The original dumb read-around size could
be more efficient.
That happened because ld-linux.so does a read(832) in L1 before mmap(),
which triggers a 4-page readahead, with the second page tagged
PG_readahead.
L0: open("/lib/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY) = 3
L1: read(3, "\177ELF\2\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0>\0\1\0\0\0\340\342"..., 832) = 832
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1420624, ...}) = 0

L7: close(3) = 0
In general, the PG_readahead flag will also be hit in cases
- sequential reads
- clustered random reads
A full readahead size is desirable in both cases.

readahead: sequential mmap readahead
Auto-detect sequential mmap reads and do readahead for them.
The sequential mmap readahead will be triggered when
- sync readahead: it's a major fault and (prev_offset == offset-1);
- async readahead: minor fault on PG_readahead page with valid readahead state.
The benefits of doing readahead instead of read-around:
- less I/O wait thanks to async readahead
- double real I/O size and no more cache hits
The single stream case is improved a little.
For 100,000 sequential mmap reads:
user system cpu total
(1-1) plain -mm, 128KB readaround: 3.224 2.554 48.40% 11.838
(1-2) plain -mm, 256KB readaround: 3.170 2.392 46.20% 11.976
(2) patched -mm, 128KB readahead: 3.117 2.448 47.33% 11.607
The patched (2) has smallest total time, since it has no cache hit overheads
and less I/O block time(thanks to async readahead). Here the I/O size
makes no much difference, since there's only one single stream.
Note that (1-1)'s real I/O size is 64KB and (1-2)'s real I/O size is 128KB,
since the half of the read-around pages will be readahead cache hits.
This is going to make _real_ differences for _concurrent_ IO streams.

This shouldn't really change behavior all that much, but the single rather
complex function with read-ahead inside a loop etc is broken up into more
manageable pieces.
The behaviour is also less subtle, with the read-ahead being done up-front
rather than inside some subtle loop and thus avoiding the now unnecessary
extra state variables (ie "did_readaround" is gone).
Fengguang: the code split in fact fixed a bug reported by Pavel Levshin:
the PGMAJFAULT accounting used to be bypassed when MADV_RANDOM is set, in

readahead: remove sync/async readahead call dependency
The readahead call scheme is error-prone in that it expects the call sites
to check for async readahead after doing a sync one. I.e.
if (!page)
page_cache_sync_readahead();
page = find_get_page();
if (page && PageReadahead(page))
page_cache_async_readahead();
This is because PG_readahead could be set by a sync readahead for the
_current_ newly faulted in page, and the readahead code simply expects one
more callback on the same page to start the async readahead. If the
caller fails to do so, it will miss the PG_readahead bits and never able
to start an async readahead.
Eliminate this insane constraint by piggy-backing the async part into the
current readahead window.
Now if an async readahead should be started immediately after a sync one,
the readahead logic itself will do it. So the following code becomes
valid: (the 'else' in particular)
if (!page)
page_cache_sync_readahead();
else if (PageReadahead(page))
page_cache_async_readahead();

Thanks, but it turns out I hit a 32 bit integer overflow in
the gain calculation. I'd like to mend that with the following
patch. Now max_uV could be increased up to 4.294 V, enough to
charge LiPo cells.

ipv4: Fix fib_trie rebalancing
While doing trie_rebalance(): resize(), inflate(), halve() RCU free
tnodes before updating their parents. It depends on RCU delaying the
real destruction, but if RCU readers start after call_rcu() and before
parent update they could access freed memory.
It is currently prevented with preempt_disable() on the update side,
but it's not safe, except maybe classic RCU, plus it conflicts with
memory allocations with GFP_KERNEL flag used from these functions.
This patch explicitly delays freeing of tnodes by adding them to the
list, which is flushed after the update is finished.

ramfs: ignore unknown mount options
On systems where CONFIG_SHMEM is disabled, mounting tmpfs filesystems can
fail when tmpfs options are used. This is because tmpfs creates a small
wrapper around ramfs which rejects unknown options, and ramfs itself only
supports a tiny subset of what tmpfs supports. This makes it pretty hard
to use the same userspace systems across different configuration systems.
As such, ramfs should ignore the tmpfs options when tmpfs is merely a
wrapper around ramfs.
This used to work before commit
c3b1b1cbf0 as previously, ramfs would
ignore all options. But now, we get:
ramfs: bad mount option: size=10M
mount: mounting mdev on /dev failed: Invalid argument
Another option might be to restore the previous behavior, where ramfs
simply ignored all unknown mount options ... which is what Hugh prefers.

menuconfig IEEE802154_DRIVERS is a bool that depends on tristate IEEE802154.
If the IEEE802154 symbol is 'm', the bool becomes 'y'.
This allows tristate symbols under IEEE802154_DRIVERS to be configured as
'y' and cause build problems.
Changing the menuconfig bool to a tristate fixes this.
