The commit 63b1898fff ("XArray: Disallow sibling entries of nodes")
modified the xas_descend function in such a way that it was no longer
being compiled as an inline function, because it increased the size of
xas_descend(), and the compiler no longer optimizes it as inline. This
had a negative impact on performance, xas_descend is called frequently to
traverse downwards in the xarray tree, making it a hot function.
Inlining xas_descend has been shown to significantly improve performance
by approximately 4.95% in the iozone write test.

If we created a new node to replace an entry which had search marks set,
we were setting the search mark on every entry in that node. That works
fine when we're splitting to order 0, but when splitting to a larger
order, we must not set the search marks on the sibling entries.

It can be used after xas_load to check the order of loaded entries.
Compared to xa_get_order, it saves an XA_STATE and avoid a rewalk.
Added new test for xas_get_order, to make the test work, we have to export
xas_get_order with EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.
Also fix a sparse warning by checking the slot value with xa_entry instead
of accessing it directly, as suggested by Matthew Wilcox.

Adds a new line to the docstrings of functions wrapping __xa_alloc() and
__xa_alloc_cyclic(), informing about the necessity of flag XA_FLAGS_ALLOC
being set previously.
The documentation so far says that functions wrapping __xa_alloc() and
__xa_alloc_cyclic() are supposed to return either -ENOMEM or -EBUSY in
case of an error. If the xarray has been initialized without the flag
XA_FLAGS_ALLOC, however, they fail with a different, undocumented error
code.
As hinted at in Documentation/core-api/xarray.rst, wrappers around these
functions should only be invoked when the flag has been set. The
functions' documentation should reflect that as well.

It is possible for xa_load() to observe a sibling entry pointing to
another sibling entry. An example:
Thread A: Thread B:
xa_store_range(xa, entry, 188, 191, gfp);
xa_load(xa, 191);
entry = xa_entry(xa, node, 63);
[entry is a sibling of 188]
xa_store_range(xa, entry, 184, 191, gfp);
if (xa_is_sibling(entry))
offset = xa_to_sibling(entry);
entry = xa_entry(xas->xa, node, offset);
[entry is now a sibling of 184]
It is sufficient to go around this loop until we hit a non-sibling entry.
Sibling entries always point earlier in the node, so we are guaranteed
to terminate this search.

The xarray.c file contains the only call to radix_tree_node_rcu_free(),
and it comes with its own extern declaration for it. This means the
function definition causes a missing-prototype warning:
lib/radix-tree.c:288:6: error: no previous prototype for 'radix_tree_node_rcu_free' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
Instead, move the declaration for this function to a new header that can
be included by both, and do the same for the radix_tree_node_cachep
variable that has the same underlying problem but does not cause a warning
with gcc.

If xas_split_alloc() fails to allocate the necessary nodes to complete the
xarray entry split, it sets the xa_state to -ENOMEM, which xas_nomem()
then interprets as "Please allocate more memory", not as "Please free
any unnecessary memory" (which was the intended outcome). It's confusing
to use xas_nomem() to free memory in this context, so call xas_destroy()
instead.

There is a race between xas_split() and xas_load() which can result in
the wrong page being returned, and thus data corruption. Fortunately,
it's hard to hit (syzbot took three months to find it) and often guarded
with VM_BUG_ON().
The anatomy of this race is:
thread A thread B
order-9 page is stored at index 0x200
lookup of page at index 0x274
page split starts
load of sibling entry at offset 9
stores nodes at offsets 8-15
load of entry at offset 8
The entry at offset 8 turns out to be a node, and so we descend into it,
and load the page at index 0x234 instead of 0x274. This is hard to fix
on the split side; we could replace the entire node that contains the
order-9 page instead of replacing the eight entries. Fixing it on
the lookup side is easier; just disallow sibling entries that point
to nodes. This cannot ever be a useful thing as the descent would not
know the correct offset to use within the new node.
The test suite continues to pass, but I have not added a new test for
this bug.

When splitting a value entry, we may need to add the new nodes to the LRU
list and remove the parent node from the LRU list. The WARN_ON checks
in shadow_lru_isolate() catch this oversight. This bug was latent
until we stopped splitting folios in shrink_page_list() with commit
820c4e2e6f ("mm/vmscan: Free non-shmem folios without splitting them").
That allows the creation of large shadow entries, and subsequently when
trying to page in a small page, we will split the large shadow entry
in __filemap_add_folio().

If there is already an entry present that is of order >= XA_CHUNK_SHIFT
when we call xas_create_range(), xas_create_range() will misinterpret
that entry as a node and dereference xa_node->parent, generally leading
to a crash that looks something like this:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000001:

It's deterministically reproducable once you know what the problem is,

The workingset will add the xa_node to the shadow_nodes list. So the

set up the xa_node reclaim context correctly.

In order to use multi-index entries for huge pages in the page cache, we
need to be able to split a multi-index entry (eg if a file is truncated in
the middle of a huge page entry). This version does not support splitting
more than one level of the tree at a time. This is an acceptable
limitation for the page cache as we do not expect to support order-12
pages in the near future.

Patch series "Fix read-only THP for non-tmpfs filesystems".
As described more verbosely in the [3/3] changelog, we can inadvertently
put an order-0 page in the page cache which occupies 512 consecutive
entries. Users are running into this if they enable the
READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS config option; see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206569 and Qian Cai has also
reported it here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200616013309.GB815@lca.pw/
This is a rather intrusive way of fixing the problem, but has the
advantage that I've actually been testing it with the THP patches, which
means that it sees far more use than it does upstream -- indeed, Song has
been entirely unable to reproduce it. It also has the advantage that it
removes a few patches from my gargantuan backlog of THP patches.
This patch (of 3):
This function returns the order of the entry at the index. We need this
because there isn't space in the shadow entry to encode its order.

xas_for_each_marked() is using entry == NULL as a termination condition
of the iteration. When xas_for_each_marked() is used protected only by
RCU, this can however race with xas_store(xas, NULL) in the following
way:
TASK1 TASK2
page_cache_delete() find_get_pages_range_tag()
xas_for_each_marked()
xas_find_marked()
off = xas_find_chunk()
xas_store(&xas, NULL)
xas_init_marks(&xas);
...
rcu_assign_pointer(*slot, NULL);
entry = xa_entry(off);
And thus xas_for_each_marked() terminates prematurely possibly leading
to missed entries in the iteration (translating to missing writeback of
some pages or a similar problem).
If we find a NULL entry that has been marked, skip it (unless we're trying
to allocate an entry).

Since a283348629 ("page cache: Finish XArray conversion"), on most
major Linux distributions, the page cache doesn't correctly transition
when the hot data set is changing, and leaves the new pages thrashing
indefinitely instead of kicking out the cold ones.
On a freshly booted, freshly ssh'd into virtual machine with 1G RAM
running stock Arch Linux:
[root@ham ~]# ./reclaimtest.sh

104029/153600 workingset-a
120268/153600 workingset-b
workingset-b is a 600M file on a 1G host that is otherwise entirely
idle. No matter how often it's being accessed, it won't get cached.
While investigating, I noticed that the non-resident information gets
aggressively reclaimed - /proc/vmstat::workingset_nodereclaim. This is
a problem because a workingset transition like this relies on the
non-resident information tracked in the page cache tree of evicted
file ranges: when the cache faults are refaults of recently evicted
cache, we challenge the existing active set, and that allows a new
workingset to establish itself.
Tracing the shrinker that maintains this memory revealed that all page
cache tree nodes were allocated to the root cgroup. This is a problem,
because 1) the shrinker sizes the amount of non-resident information
it keeps to the size of the cgroup's other memory and 2) on most major
Linux distributions, only kernel threads live in the root cgroup and
everything else gets put into services or session groups:
[root@ham ~]# cat /proc/self/cgroup
0::/user.slice/user-0.slice/session-c1.scope
As a result, we basically maintain no non-resident information for the
workloads running on the system, thus breaking the caching algorithm.
Looking through the code, I found the culprit in the above-mentioned
patch: when switching from the radix tree to xarray, it dropped the
__GFP_ACCOUNT flag from the tree node allocations - the flag that
makes sure the allocated memory gets charged to and tracked by the
cgroup of the calling process - in this case, the one doing the fault.
To fix this, allow xarray users to specify per-tree flag that makes
xarray allocate nodes using __GFP_ACCOUNT. Then restore the page cache
tree annotation to request such cgroup tracking for the cache nodes.
With this patch applied, the page cache correctly converges on new
workingsets again after just a few iterations:
[root@ham ~]# ./reclaimtest.sh

This differs slightly from the IDR equivalent in five ways.
1. It can allocate up to UINT_MAX instead of being limited to INT_MAX,
like xa_alloc(). Also like xa_alloc(), it will write to the 'id'
pointer before placing the entry in the XArray.
2. The 'next' cursor is allocated separately from the XArray instead
of being part of the IDR. This saves memory for all the users which
do not use the cyclic allocation API and suits some users better.
3. It returns -EBUSY instead of -ENOSPC.
4. It will attempt to wrap back to the minimum value on memory allocation
failure as well as on an -EBUSY error, assuming that a user would
rather allocate a small ID than suffer an ID allocation failure.
5. It reports whether it has wrapped, which is important to some users.

A lot of places want to allocate IDs starting at 1 instead of 0.
While the xa_alloc() API supports this, it's not very efficient if lots
of IDs are allocated, due to having to walk down to the bottom of the
tree to see if ID 1 is available, then all the way over to the next
non-allocated ID. This method marks ID 0 as being occupied which wastes
one slot in the XArray, but preserves xa_empty() as working.
