Back in the old days, the "ascii-ci" feature was created to implement
case-insensitive directory entry lookups for latin1-encoded names and
remove the large overhead of Samba's case-insensitive lookup code. UTF8
names were not allowed, but nobody explicitly wrote in the documentation
that this was only expected to work if the system used latin1 names.
The kernel tolower function was selected to prepare names for hashed
lookups.
There's a major discrepancy in the function that computes directory entry
hashes for filesystems that have ASCII case-insensitive lookups enabled.
The root of this is that the kernel and glibc's tolower implementations
have differing behavior for extended ASCII accented characters. I wrote
a program to spit out characters for which the tolower() return value is
different from the input:
Which means that the kernel and userspace do not agree on the hash value
for a directory filename that contains those higher values. The hash
values are written into the leaf index block of directories that are
larger than two blocks in size, which means that xfs_repair will flag
these directories as having corrupted hash indexes and rewrite the index
with hash values that the kernel now will not recognize.
Because the ascii-ci feature is not frequently enabled and the kernel
touches filesystems far more frequently than xfs_repair does, fix this
by encoding the kernel's toupper predicate and tolower functions into
libxfs. Give the new functions less provocative names to make it really
obvious that this is a pre-hash name preparation function, and nothing
else. This change makes userspace's behavior consistent with the
kernel.
Found by auditing obfuscate_name in xfs_metadump as part of working on
parent pointers, wondering how it could possibly work correctly with ci
filesystems, writing a test tool to create a directory with
hash-colliding names, and watching xfs_repair flag it.

Currently, the bmap scrubber checks file fork mappings individually. In
the case that the file uses multiple mappings to a single contiguous
piece of space, the scrubber repeatedly locks the AG to check the
existence of a reverse mapping that overlaps this file mapping. If the
reverse mapping starts before or ends after the mapping we're checking,
it will also crawl around in the bmbt checking correspondence for
adjacent extents.
This is not very time efficient because it does the crawling while
holding the AGF buffer, and checks the middle mappings multiple times.
Instead, create a custom iextent record iterator function that combines
multiple adjacent allocated mappings into one large incore bmbt record.
This is feasible because the incore bmbt record length is 64-bits wide.

Convert the xfs_ialloc_has_inodes_at_extent function to return keyfill
scan results because for a given range of inode numbers, we might have

Unfortunately, sparse inodes adds to the complexity, because each inode

Keys for extent interval records in the reverse mapping btree are
supposed to be computed as follows:
(physical block, owner, fork, is_btree, offset)
This provides users the ability to look up a reverse mapping from a file
block mapping record -- start with the physical block; then if there are
multiple records for the same block, move on to the owner; then the
inode fork type; and so on to the file offset.
Unfortunately, the code that creates rmap lookup keys from rmap records
forgot to mask off the record attribute flags, leading to ondisk keys
that look like this:
Fortunately, this has all worked ok for the past six years because the
key comparison functions incorrectly ignore the fork/bmbt/unwritten
information that's encoded in the on-disk offset. This means that
lookup comparisons are only done with:
(physical block, owner, offset)
Queries can (theoretically) return incorrect results because of this
omission. On consistent filesystems this isn't an issue because xattr
and bmbt blocks cannot be shared and hence the comparisons succeed
purely on the contents of the rm_startblock field. For the one case
where we support sharing (written data fork blocks) all flag bits are
zero, so the omission in the comparison has no ill effects.
Unfortunately, this bug prevents scrub from detecting incorrect fork and
bmbt flag bits in the rmap btree, so we really do need to fix the
compare code. Old filesystems with the unwritten bit erroneously set in
the rmap key struct will work fine on new kernels since we still ignore
the unwritten bit. New filesystems on older kernels will work fine
since the old kernels never paid attention to the unwritten bit.
A previous version of this patch forgot to keep the (un)written state
flag masked during the comparison and caused a major regression in
5.9.x since unwritten extent conversion can update an rmap record
without requiring key updates.
Note that blocks cannot go directly from data fork to attr fork without
being deallocated and reallocated, nor can they be added to or removed
from a bmbt without a free/alloc cycle, so this should not cause any
regressions.

When a writer thread executes a chain of log intent items, the AG header
buffer locks will cycle during a transaction roll to get from one intent
item to the next in a chain. Although scrub takes all AG header buffer
locks, this isn't sufficient to guard against scrub checking an AG while
that writer thread is in the middle of finishing a chain because there's
no higher level locking primitive guarding allocation groups.
When there's a collision, cross-referencing between data structures
(e.g. rmapbt and refcountbt) yields false corruption events; if repair
is running, this results in incorrect repairs, which is catastrophic.
Fix this by adding to the perag structure the count of active intents
and make scrub wait until it has both AG header buffer locks and the
intent counter reaches zero.
One quirk of the drain code is that deferred bmap updates also bump and
drop the intent counter. A fundamental decision made during the design
phase of the reverse mapping feature is that updates to the rmapbt
records are always made by the same code that updates the primary
metadata. In other words, callers of bmapi functions expect that the
bmapi functions will queue deferred rmap updates.
Some parts of the reflink code queue deferred refcount (CUI) and bmap
(BUI) updates in the same head transaction, but the deferred work
manager completely finishes the CUI before the BUI work is started. As
a result, the CUI drops the intent count long before the deferred rmap
(RUI) update even has a chance to bump the intent count. The only way
to keep the intent count elevated between the CUI and RUI is for the BUI
to bump the counter until the RUI has been created.
A second quirk of the intent drain code is that deferred work items must
increment the intent counter as soon as the work item is added to the
transaction. When a BUI completes and queues an RUI, the RUI must
increment the counter before the BUI decrements it. The only way to
accomplish this is to require that the counter be bumped as soon as the
deferred work item is created in memory.
In the next patches we'll improve on this facility, but this patch
provides the basic functionality.

The immediate result of this error is that dir_binval complains about

However, if the block is reallocated by another thread, repair will
deadlock when it tries to get the buffer and cannot take the buffer
lock.

xfs_repair: estimate per-AG btree slack better
The slack calculation for per-AG btrees is a bit inaccurate because it
only disables slack space in the new btrees when the amount of free
space in the AG (not counting the btrees) is less than 3/32ths of the
AG. In other words, it assumes that the btrees will fit in less than 9
percent of the space.
However, there's one scenario where this goes wrong -- if the rmapbt
consumes a significant portion of the AG space. Say a filesystem is
hosting a VM image farm that starts with perfectly shared images. As
time goes by, random writes to those images will slowly cause the rmapbt
to increase in size as blocks within those images get COWed.
Suppose that the rmapbt now consumes 20% of the space in the AG, that
the AG is nearly full, and that the blocks in the old rmapbt are mostly
full. At the start of phase5_func, mk_incore_fstree will return that
num_freeblocks is ~20% of the AG size. Hence the slack calculation will
conclude that there's plenty of space in the AG and new btrees will be
built with 25% slack in the blocks. If the size of these new expanded
btrees is larger than the free space in the AG, repair will fail to
allocate btree blocks and fail, causing severe filesystem damage.
To combat this, estimate the worst case size of the AG btrees given the
number of records we intend to put in them, subtract that worst case
figure from num_freeblocks, and feed that to bulkload_estimate_ag_slack.
This results in tighter packing of new btree blocks when space is dear,
and hopefully fewer problems. This /can/ be reproduced with generic/333
if you hack it to keep COWing blocks until the filesystem is totally
out of space, even if reflink has long since refused to share more
blocks.

xfs_repair -n then complains about the leaks.

Callers of xfs_alloc_vextent_iterate_ags that pass in the TRYLOCK flag
want us to perform a non-blocking scan of the AGs for free space. There
are no ordering constraints for non-blocking AGF lock acquisition, so
the scan can freely start over at AG 0 even when minimum_agno > 0.
This manifests fairly reliably on xfs/294 on 6.3-rc2 with the parent
pointer patchset applied and the realtime volume enabled. I observed
the following sequence as part of an xfs_dir_createname call:
0. Fragment the free space, then allocate nearly all the free space in
all AGs except AG 0.
1. Create a directory in AG 2 and let it grow for a while.
2. Try to allocate 2 blocks to expand the dirent part of a directory.
The space will be allocated out of AG 0, but the allocation will not
be contiguous. This (I think) activates the LOWMODE allocator.
3. The bmapi call decides to convert from extents to bmbt format and
tries to allocate 1 block. This allocation request calls
xfs_alloc_vextent_start_ag with the inode number, which starts the
scan at AG 2. We ignore AG 0 (with all its free space) and instead
scrape AG 2 and 3 for more space. We find one block, but this now
kicks t_highest_agno to 3.
4. The createname call decides it needs to split the dabtree. It tries
to allocate even more space with xfs_alloc_vextent_start_ag, but now
we're constrained to AG 3, and we don't find the space. The
createname returns ENOSPC and the filesystem shuts down.
This change fixes the problem by making the trylock scan wrap around to
AG 0 if it doesn't like the AGs that it finds. Since the current
transaction itself holds AGF 0, the trylock of AGF 0 will succeed, and
we take space from the AG that has plenty.

the same selection function that iterates all AGs multiple times.
Worst case, xfs_bmap_btalloc_filestreams() can iterate all AGs 4
times just to select the initial AG to allocate in.
Move the AG selection to fs/xfs/xfs_filestreams.c as a single
interface so that the inefficient AG interation is contained
entirely within the filestreams code. This will allow the
implementation to be simplified and made more efficient in future
patches.

the EAGAIN error and handle that error in the callers.
This means we can remove the not_init parameter from
xfs_bmap_select_minlen(), too, because the use of not_init there is
pessimistic. If we can't read the agf, it won't increase blen.
The only time we actually care whether we checked all the AGFs for
contiguous free space is when the best length is less than the
minimum allocation length. If not_init is set, then we ignore blen
and set the minimum alloc length to the absolute minimum, not the
best length we know already is present.
However, if blen is less than the minimum we're going to ignore it
anyway, regardless of whether we scanned all the AGFs or not. Hence
not_init can go away, because we only use if blen is good from
the scanned AGs otherwise we ignore it altogether and use minlen.

There's a bit of a recursive conundrum around
xfs_alloc_ag_vextent(). We can't first call xfs_alloc_ag_vextent()
without preparing the AGFL for the allocation, and preparing the
AGFL calls xfs_alloc_ag_vextent() to prepare the AGFL for the
allocation. This "double allocation" requirement is not really clear
from the current xfs_alloc_fix_freelist() calls that are sprinkled
through the allocation code.
It's not helped that xfs_alloc_ag_vextent() can actually allocate
from the AGFL itself, but there's special code to prevent AGFL prep
allocations from allocating from the free list it's trying to prep.
The naming is also not consistent: args->wasfromfl is true when we
allocated _from_ the free list, but the indication that we are
allocating _for_ the free list is via checking that (args->resv ==
XFS_AG_RESV_AGFL).
So, lets make this "allocation required for allocation" situation
clear by moving it all inside xfs_alloc_ag_vextent(). The freelist
allocation is a specific XFS_ALLOCTYPE_THIS_AG allocation, which
translated directly to xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_size() allocation.
This enables us to replace __xfs_alloc_vextent_this_ag() with a call
to xfs_alloc_ag_vextent(), and we drive the freelist fixing further

We need to be able to dynamically remove instantiated AGs from
memory safely, either for shrinking the filesystem or paging AG
state in and out of memory (e.g. supporting millions of AGs). This
means we need to be able to safely exclude operations from accessing
perags while dynamic removal is in progress.
To do this, introduce the concept of active and passive references.
Active references are required for high level operations that make
use of an AG for a given operation (e.g. allocation) and pin the
perag in memory for the duration of the operation that is operating
on the perag (e.g. transaction scope). This means we can fail to get
an active reference to an AG, hence callers of the new active
reference API must be able to handle lookup failure gracefully.
Passive references are used in low level code, where we might need
to access the perag structure for the purposes of completing high
level operations. For example, buffers need to use passive
references because:
- we need to be able to do metadata IO during operations like grow
and shrink transactions where high level active references to the
AG have already been blocked
- buffers need to pin the perag until they are reclaimed from
memory, something that high level code has no direct control over.
- unused cached buffers should not prevent a shrink from being
started.
Hence we have active references that will form exclusion barriers
for operations to be performed on an AG, and passive references that
will prevent reclaim of the perag until all objects with passive
references have been reclaimed themselves.
This patch introduce xfs_perag_grab()/xfs_perag_rele() as the API
for active AG reference functionality. We also need to convert the
for_each_perag*() iterators to use active references, which will
start the process of converting high level code over to using active
references. Conversion of non-iterator based code to active
references will be done in followup patches.
Note that the implementation using reference counting is really just
a development vehicle for the API to ensure we don't have any leaks
in the callers. Once we need to remove perag structures from memory
dyanmically, we will need a much more robust per-ag state transition
mechanism for preventing new references from being taken while we
wait for existing references to drain before removal from memory can
occur....

Hence we can remove all the "nullfb" conditional logic in places
like xfs_bmap_btalloc() and instead have them focus simply on
setting up locality constraints. If the allocation fails due to
AGF lock filtering in xfs_alloc_vextent, then we just fall back as
we normally do to more relaxed allocation constraints.
As a result, any allocation that allows AG scanning (i.e. not
confined to a single AG) and does not force a worst case full
filesystem scan will now be able to attempt allocation from AGs
lower than that defined by tp->t_firstblock. This is because
xfs_alloc_vextent() allows try-locking of the AGFs and hence enables
low space algorithms to at least -try- to get space from AGs lower
than the one that we have currently locked and allocated from. This
is a significant improvement in the low space allocation algorithm.

When an XFS filesystem has free inodes in chunks already allocated
on disk, it will still allocate new inode chunks if the target AG
has no free inodes in it. Normally, this is a good idea as it
preserves locality of all the inodes in a given directory.
However, at ENOSPC this can lead to using the last few remaining
free filesystem blocks to allocate a new chunk when there are many,
many free inodes that could be allocated without consuming free
space. This results in speeding up the consumption of the last few
blocks and inode create operations then returning ENOSPC when there
free inodes available because we don't have enough block left in the
filesystem for directory creation reservations to proceed.
Hence when we are near ENOSPC, we should be attempting to preserve
the remaining blocks for directory block allocation rather than
using them for unnecessary inode chunk creation.
This particular behaviour is exposed by xfs/294, when it drives to
ENOSPC on empty file creation whilst there are still thousands of
free inodes available for allocation in other AGs in the filesystem.
Hence, when we are within 1% of ENOSPC, change the inode allocation
behaviour to prefer to use existing free inodes over allocating new
inode chunks, even though it results is poorer locality of the data
set. It is more important for the allocations to be space efficient
near ENOSPC than to have optimal locality for performance, so lets
modify the inode AG selection code to reflect that fact.
This allows generic/294 to not only pass with this allocator rework
patchset, but to increase the number of post-ENOSPC empty inode
allocations to from ~600 to ~9080 before we hit ENOSPC on the
directory create transaction reservation.

I've recently encountered an ABBA deadlock with g/476. The upcoming
changes seem to make this much easier to hit, but the underlying
problem is a pre-existing one.
Essentially, if we select an AG for allocation, then lock the AGF
and then fail to allocate for some reason (e.g. minimum length
requirements cannot be satisfied), then we drop out of the
allocation with the AGF still locked.
The caller then modifies the allocation constraints - usually
loosening them up - and tries again. This can result in trying to
access AGFs that are lower than the AGF we already have locked from
the failed attempt. e.g. the failed attempt skipped several AGs
before failing, so we have locks an AG higher than the start AG.
Retrying the allocation from the start AG then causes us to violate
AGF lock ordering and this can lead to deadlocks.
The deadlock exists even if allocation succeeds - we can do a
followup allocations in the same transaction for BMBT blocks that
aren't guaranteed to be in the same AG as the original, and can move
into higher AGs. Hence we really need to move the tp->t_firstblock
tracking down into xfs_alloc_vextent() where it can be set when we
exit with a locked AG.
xfs_alloc_vextent() can also check there if the requested
allocation falls within the allow range of AGs set by
tp->t_firstblock. If we can't allocate within the range set, we have
to fail the allocation. If we are allowed to to non-blocking AGF
locking, we can ignore the AG locking order limitations as we can
use try-locks for the first iteration over requested AG range.
This invalidates a set of post allocation asserts that check that
the allocation is always above tp->t_firstblock if it is set.
Because we can use try-locks to avoid the deadlock in some
circumstances, having a pre-existing locked AGF doesn't always
prevent allocation from lower order AGFs. Hence those ASSERTs need
to be removed.

When we split a BMBT due to record insertion, we offload it to a
worker thread because we can be deep in the stack when we try to
allocate a new block for the BMBT. Allocation can use several
kilobytes of stack (full memory reclaim, swap and/or IO path can
end up on the stack during allocation) and we can already be several
kilobytes deep in the stack when we need to split the BMBT.
A recent workload demonstrated a deadlock in this BMBT split
offload. It requires several things to happen at once:
1. two inodes need a BMBT split at the same time, one must be
unwritten extent conversion from IO completion, the other must be
from extent allocation.
2. there must be a no available xfs_alloc_wq worker threads
available in the worker pool.
3. There must be sustained severe memory shortages such that new
kworker threads cannot be allocated to the xfs_alloc_wq pool for
both threads that need split work to be run
4. The split work from the unwritten extent conversion must run
first.
5. when the BMBT block allocation runs from the split work, it must
loop over all AGs and not be able to either trylock an AGF
successfully, or each AGF is is able to lock has no space available
for a single block allocation.
6. The BMBT allocation must then attempt to lock the AGF that the
second task queued to the rescuer thread already has locked before
it finds an AGF it can allocate from.
At this point, we have an ABBA deadlock between tasks queued on the
xfs_alloc_wq rescuer thread and a locked AGF. i.e. The queued task
holding the AGF lock can't be run by the rescuer thread until the
task the rescuer thread is runing gets the AGF lock....
This is a highly improbably series of events, but there it is.
There's a couple of ways to fix this, but the easiest way to ensure
that we only punt tasks with a locked AGF that holds enough space
for the BMBT block allocations to the worker thread.
This works for unwritten extent conversion in IO completion (which
doesn't have a locked AGF and space reservations) because we have
tight control over the IO completion stack. It is typically only 6
functions deep when xfs_btree_split() is called because we've
already offloaded the IO completion work to a worker thread and
hence we don't need to worry about stack overruns here.
The other place we can be called for a BMBT split without a
preceeding allocation is __xfs_bunmapi() when punching out the
center of an existing extent. We don't remove extents in the IO
path, so these operations don't tend to be called with a lot of
stack consumed. Hence we don't really need to ship the split off to
a worker thread in these cases, either.

misc: test the dir/attr hash before formatting or repairing fs
Back in the 6.2-rc1 days, Eric Whitney reported a fstests regression in
ext4 against generic/454. The cause of this test failure was the
unfortunate combination of setting an xattr name containing UTF8 encoded
emoji, an xattr hash function that accepted a char pointer with no
explicit signedness, signed type extension of those chars to an int, and
the 6.2 build tools maintainers deciding to mandate -funsigned-char
across the board. As a result, the ondisk extended attribute structure
written out by 6.1 and 6.2 were not the same.
This discrepancy, in fact, had been noticeable if a filesystem with such
an xattr were moved between any two architectures that don't employ the
same signedness of a raw "char" declaration. The only reason anyone
noticed is that x86 gcc defaults to signed, and no such -funsigned-char
update was made to e2fsprogs, so e2fsck immediately started reporting
data corruption.
After a day and a half of discussing how to handle this use case (xattrs
with bit 7 set anywhere in the name) without breaking existing users,
Linus merged his own patch and didn't tell the mailing list. None of
the developers noticed until AUTOSEL made an announcement.
In the end, this problem could have been detected much earlier if there
had been any useful tests of hash function(s) in use inside ext4 to make
sure that they always produce the same outputs given the same inputs.
The XFS dirent/xattr name hash takes a uint8_t*, so I don't think it's
vulnerable to this problem. However, let's avoid all this drama by
adding our own self test to check that the da hash produces the same
outputs for a static pile of inputs on various platforms. This
corresponds to the similar patch for the kernel.
Lately I've been stress-testing extreme-sized rmap btrees by using the
(new) xfs_db bmap_inflate command to clone bmbt mappings billions of
times and then using xfs_repair to build new rmap and refcount btrees.
This of course is /much/ faster than actually FICLONEing a file billions
of times.
Unfortunately, xfs_repair fails in xfs_btree_bload_compute_geometry with
EOVERFLOW, which indicates that xfs_mount.m_rmap_maxlevels is not
sufficiently large for the test scenario. For a 1TB filesystem (~67
million AG blocks, 4 AGs) the btheight command reports:
The AG is sufficiently large to build this rmap btree. Unfortunately,
m_rmap_maxlevels is 5. Augmenting the loop in the space->height
function to report height, node blocks, and blocks remaining produces
this:
The goal of this function is to compute the maximum height btree that
can be stored in the given number of ondisk fsblocks. Starting with the
top level of the tree, each iteration through the loop adds the fanout
factor of the next level down until we run out of blocks. IOWs, maximum
height is achieved by using the smallest fanout factor that can apply
to that level.
However, the loop setup is not correct. Top level btree blocks are
allowed to contain fewer than minrecs items, so the computation is
incorrect because the first time through the loop it should be using a
fanout factor of 2. With this corrected, the above becomes:

While investigating test failures in xfs/17[1-3] in alwayscow mode, I
noticed through code inspection that xfs_bmap_alloc_userdata isn't
setting XFS_ALLOC_USERDATA when allocating extents for a file's CoW
fork. COW staging extents should be flagged as USERDATA, since user
data are persisted to these blocks before being remapped into a file.
This mis-classification has a few impacts on the behavior of the system.
First, the filestreams allocator is supposed to keep allocating from a
chosen AG until it runs out of space in that AG. However, it only does
that for USERDATA allocations, which means that COW allocations aren't
tied to the filestreams AG. Fortunately, few people use filestreams, so
nobody's noticed.
A more serious problem is that xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_small looks for a
buffer to invalidate *if* the USERDATA flag is set and the AG is so full
that the allocation had to come from the AGFL because the cntbt is
empty. The consequences of not invalidating the buffer are severe --
if the AIL incorrectly checkpoints a buffer that is now being used to
store user data, that action will clobber the user's written data.
Fix filestreams and yet another data corruption vector by flagging COW
allocations as USERDATA.

xfs_btree_check_block contains debugging knobs. With XFS_DEBUG setting up,
turn on the debugging knob can trigger the assert of xfs_btree_islastblock,
test script as follows:
while true
do
mount $disk $mountpoint
fsstress -d $testdir -l 0 -n 10000 -p 4 >/dev/null
echo 1 > /sys/fs/xfs/sda/errortag/btree_chk_sblk
sleep 10
umount $mountpoint
done
Kick off fsstress and only *then* turn on the debugging knob. If it
happens that the knob gets turned on after the cntbt lookup succeeds
but before the call to xfs_btree_islastblock, then we *can* end up in
the situation where a previously checked btree block suddenly starts
returning EFSCORRUPTED from xfs_btree_check_block. Kaboom.
Darrick give a very detailed explanation as follows:
Looking back at commit 27d9ee577dcce, I think the point of all this was
to make sure that the cursor has actually performed a lookup, and that
the btree block at whatever level we're asking about is ok.
If the caller hasn't ever done a lookup, the bc_levels array will be
empty, so cur->bc_levels[level].bp pointer will be NULL. The call to
xfs_btree_get_block will crash anyway, so the "ASSERT(block);" part is
pointless.
If the caller did a lookup but the lookup failed due to block
corruption, the corresponding cur->bc_levels[level].bp pointer will also
be NULL, and we'll still crash. The "ASSERT(xfs_btree_check_block);"
logic is also unnecessary.
If the cursor level points to an inode root, the block buffer will be
incore, so it had better always be consistent.
If the caller ignores a failed lookup after a successful one and calls
this function, the cursor state is garbage and the assert wouldn't have
tripped anyway. So get rid of the assert.

Upon enabling fsdax + reflink for XFS, xfs/179 began to report refcount
metadata corruptions after being run. Specifically, xfs_repair noticed
single-block refcount records that could be combined but had not been.
The root cause of this is improper MAXREFCOUNT edge case handling in
xfs_refcount_merge_extents. When we're trying to find candidates for a
refcount btree record merge, we compute the refcount attribute of the
merged record, but we fail to account for the fact that once a record
hits rc_refcount == MAXREFCOUNT, it is pinned that way forever. Hence
the computed refcount is wrong, and we fail to merge the extents.
Fix this by adjusting the merge predicates to compute the adjusted
refcount correctly.

With the changes to scan the page cache for dirty data to avoid data
corruptions from partial write cleanup racing with other page cache
operations, the drop writes error injection no longer works the same
way it used to and causes xfs/196 to fail. This is because xfs/196
writes to the file and populates the page cache before it turns on
the error injection and starts failing -overwrites-.
The result is that the original drop-writes code failed writes only
-after- overwriting the data in the cache, followed by invalidates
the cached data, then punching out the delalloc extent from under
that data.
On the surface, this looks fine. The problem is that page cache
invalidation *doesn't guarantee that it removes anything from the
page cache* and it doesn't change the dirty state of the folio. When
block size == page size and we do page aligned IO (as xfs/196 does)
everything happens to align perfectly and page cache invalidation
removes the single page folios that span the written data. Hence the
followup delalloc punch pass does not find cached data over that
range and it can punch the extent out.
IOWs, xfs/196 "works" for block size == page size with the new
code. I say "works", because it actually only works for the case
where IO is page aligned, and no data was read from disk before
writes occur. Because the moment we actually read data first, the
readahead code allocates multipage folios and suddenly the
invalidate code goes back to zeroing subfolio ranges without
changing dirty state.
Hence, with multipage folios in play, block size == page size is
functionally identical to block size < page size behaviour, and
drop-writes is manifestly broken w.r.t to this case. Invalidation of
a subfolio range doesn't result in the folio being removed from the
cache, just the range gets zeroed. Hence after we've sequentially
walked over a folio that we've dirtied (via write data) and then
invalidated, we end up with a dirty folio full of zeroed data.
And because the new code skips punching ranges that have dirty
folios covering them, we end up leaving the delalloc range intact
after failing all the writes. Hence failed writes now end up
writing zeroes to disk in the cases where invalidation zeroes folios
rather than removing them from cache.
This is a fundamental change of behaviour that is needed to avoid
the data corruption vectors that exist in the old write fail path,
and it renders the drop-writes injection non-functional and
unworkable as it stands.
As it is, I think the error injection is also now unnecessary, as
partial writes that need delalloc extent are going to be a lot more
common with stale iomap detection in place. Hence this patch removes
the drop-writes error injection completely. xfs/196 can remain for
testing kernels that don't have this data corruption fix, but those
that do will report:
xfs/196 3s ... [not run] XFS error injection drop_writes unknown on this kernel.

Now that iomap supports a mechanism to validate cached iomaps for
buffered write operations, hook it up to the XFS buffered write ops
so that we can avoid data corruptions that result from stale cached
iomaps. See:
or the ->iomap_valid() introduction commit for exact details of the
corruption vector.
The validity cookie we store in the iomap is based on the type of
iomap we return. It is expected that the iomap->flags we set in
xfs_bmbt_to_iomap() is not perturbed by the iomap core and are
returned to us in the iomap passed via the .iomap_valid() callback.
This ensures that the validity cookie is always checking the correct
inode fork sequence numbers to detect potential changes that affect
the extent cached by the iomap.
