fs: ratelimit __find_get_block_slow() failure message.

2019-02-06T19:58:56+00:00

When something let __find_get_block_slow() hit all_mapped path, it calls
printk() for 100+ times per a second. But there is no need to print same
message with such high frequency; it is just asking for stall warning, or
at least bloating log files.

  [  399.866302][T15342] __find_get_block_slow() failed. block=1, b_blocknr=8
  [  399.873324][T15342] b_state=0x00000029, b_size=512
  [  399.878403][T15342] device loop0 blocksize: 4096
  [  399.883296][T15342] __find_get_block_slow() failed. block=1, b_blocknr=8

  [  399.912506][T15342] device loop0 blocksize: 4096

This patch reduces frequency to up to once per a second, in addition to
concatenating three lines into one.

2018-11-02T18:25:48+00:00

Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "The biggest part of this pull request is the revert of the blkcg
  cleanup series. It had one fix earlier for a stacked device issue, but
  another one was reported. Rather than play whack-a-mole with this,
  revert the entire series and try again for the next kernel release.

  Apart from that, only small fixes/changes.

  Summary:

   - Indentation fixup for mtip32xx (Colin Ian King)

   - The blkcg cleanup series revert (Dennis Zhou)

   - Two NVMe fixes. One fixing a regression in the nvme request
     initialization in this merge window, causing nvme-fc to not work.
     The other is a suspend/resume p2p resource issue (James, Keith)

   - Fix sg discard merge, allowing us to merge in cases where we didn't
     before (Jianchao Wang)

   - Call rq_qos_exit() after the queue is frozen, preventing a hang
     (Ming)

   - Fix brd queue setup, fixing an oops if we fail setting up all
     devices (Ming)"

This reverts a series committed earlier due to null pointer exception
bug report in [1]. It seems there are edge case interactions that I did
not consider and will need some time to understand what causes the
adverse interactions.

The original series can be found in [2] with a follow up series in [3].

Merge branch 'xarray' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax

2018-10-28T18:35:40+00:00

Pull XArray conversion from Matthew Wilcox:
 "The XArray provides an improved interface to the radix tree data
  structure, providing locking as part of the API, specifying GFP flags
  at allocation time, eliminating preloading, less re-walking the tree,
  more efficient iterations and not exposing RCU-protected pointers to
  its users.

  This patch set

   1. Introduces the XArray implementation

   2. Converts the pagecache to use it

   3. Converts memremap to use it

  The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix
  tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap
  code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows
  us to remove the radix tree code that supported it.

  I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix
  tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first. The
  other conversions haven't been in linux-next and aren't suitable for
  applying yet, but you can see them in the xarray-conv branch if you're
  interested"

fs, mm: account buffer_head to kmemcg

2018-08-17T23:20:30+00:00

The buffer_head can consume a significant amount of system memory and is
directly related to the amount of page cache.  In our production
environment we have observed that a lot of machines are spending a
significant amount of memory as buffer_head and can not be left as
system memory overhead.

Charging buffer_head is not as simple as adding __GFP_ACCOUNT to the
allocation.  The buffer_heads can be allocated in a memcg different from
the memcg of the page for which buffer_heads are being allocated.  One
concrete example is memory reclaim.  The reclaim can trigger I/O of
pages of any memcg on the system.  So, the right way to charge
buffer_head is to extract the memcg from the page for which buffer_heads
are being allocated and then use targeted memcg charging API.
