* splice: only check do_wakeup in splice_to_pipe() for a real pipeJens Axboe2007-06-15
| | | | | | | | We only ever set do_wakeup to non-zero if the pipe has an inode backing, so it's pointless to check outside the pipe->inode check. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* splice: fix leak of pages on short splice to pipeJens Axboe2007-06-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | If the destination pipe is full and we already transferred data, we break out instead of waiting for more pipe room. The exit logic looks at spd->nr_pages to see if we moved everything inside the spd container, but we decrement that variable in the loop to decide when spd has emptied. Instead we want to compare to the original page count in the spd, so cache that in a local variable. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* splice: adjust balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() callJens Axboe2007-06-15
| | | | | | | | | As we have potentially dirtied more than 1 page, we should indicate as such to the dirty page balancing. So call balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_nr() and pass in the approximate number of pages we dirtied. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* splice: __generic_file_splice_read: fix read/truncate raceJens Axboe2007-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Original patch and description from Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>, merged and adapted to splice branch by me. Neils text follows: __generic_file_splice_read() currently samples the i_size at the start and doesn't do so again unless it needs to call ->readpage to load a page. After ->readpage it has to re-sample i_size as a truncate may have caused that page to be filled with zeros, and the read() call should not see these. However there are other activities that might cause ->readpage to be called on a page between the time that __generic_file_splice_read() samples i_size and when it finds that it has an uptodate page. These include at least read-ahead and possibly another thread performing a read So we must sample i_size *after* it has an uptodate page. Thus the current sampling at the start and after a read can be replaced with a sampling before page addition into spd. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* splice: __generic_file_splice_read: fix i_size_read() length checksHugh Dickins2007-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | __generic_file_splice_read's partial page check, at eof after readpage, not only got its calculations wrong, but also reused the loff variable: causing data corruption when splicing from a non-0 offset in the file's last page (revealed by ext2 -b 1024 testing on a loop of a tmpfs file).

* splice: move balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() outside of splice actorJens Axboe2007-06-08
| | | | | | | I've seen inode related deadlocks, so move this call outside of the actor itself, which may hold the inode lock. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* [PATCH] splice(): fix interaction with readaheadFengguang Wu2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Eric Dumazet, thank you for disclosing this bug. Readahead logic somehow fails to populate the page range with data. It can be because 1) the readahead routine is not always called in the following lines of fs/splice.c: if (!loff || nr_pages > 1) page_cache_readahead(mapping, &in->f_ra, in, index, nr_pages); 2) even called, page_cache_readahead() wont guarantee the pages are there. It wont submit readahead I/O for pages already in the radix tree, or when (ra_pages == 0), or after 256 cache hits. In your case, it should be because of the retried reads, which lead to excessive cache hits, and disables readahead at some time. And that _one_ failure of readahead blocks the whole read process. The application receives EAGAIN and retries the read, but __generic_file_splice_read() refuse to make progress: - in the previous invocation, it has allocated a blank page and inserted it into the radix tree, but never has the chance to start I/O for it: the test of SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK goes before that. - in the retried invocation, the readahead code will neither get out of the cache hit mode, nor will it submit I/O for an already existing page.

* Export __splice_from_pipe()Mark Fasheh2007-03-27
| | | | | | | | | Ocfs2 wants to implement it's own splice write actor so that it can better manage cluster / page locks.

* 2/2 splice: dont readpageNick Piggin2007-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | Splice does not need to readpage to bring the page uptodate before writing to it, because prepare_write will take care of that for us. Splice is also wrong to SetPageUptodate before the page is actually uptodate. This results in the old uninitialised memory leak. This gets fixed as a matter of course when removing the readpage logic. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* 1/2 splice: dont stealNick Piggin2007-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stealing pages with splice is problematic because we cannot just insert an uptodate page into the pagecache and hope the filesystem can take care of it later. We also cannot just ClearPageUptodate, then hope prepare_write does not write anything into the page, because I don't think prepare_write gives that guarantee. Remove support for SPLICE_F_MOVE for now. If we really want to bring it back, we might be able to do so with a the new filesystem buffered write aops APIs I'm working on. If we really don't want to bring it back, then we should decide that sooner rather than later, and remove the flag and all the stealing infrastructure before anybody starts using it.

* [PATCH] Remove SUID when splicing into an inodeJens Axboe2006-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | Originally from Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com> generic_file_splice_write() does not remove S_ISUID or S_ISGID. This is inconsistent with the way we generally write to files.

* [PATCH] Introduce generic_file_splice_write_nolock()Mark Fasheh2006-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | This allows file systems to manage their own i_mutex locking while still re-using the generic_file_splice_write() logic.

* [PATCH] Take i_mutex in splice_from_pipe()Mark Fasheh2006-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The splice_actor may be calling ->prepare_write() and ->commit_write(). We want i_mutex on the inode being written to before calling those so that we don't race i_size changes. The double locking behavior is done elsewhere in splice.c, and if we eventually want _nolock variants of generic_file_splice_write(), fs modules might have to replicate the nasty locking code. We introduce inode_double_lock() and inode_double_unlock() to consolidate the locking rules into one set of functions.

* [PATCH] splice: fix problems with sys_tee()Jens Axboe2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several issues noticed/fixed: - We cannot reliably block in link_pipe() while holding both input and output mutexes. So do preparatory checks before locking down both mutexes and doing the link. - The ipipe->nrbufs vs i check was bad, because we could have dropped the ipipe lock in-between. This causes us to potentially look at unknown buffers if we were racing with someone else reading this pipe. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
* [PATCH] splice: retrieve mapping after locking the pageJens Axboe2006-06-23

* [PATCH] splice: redo page lookup if add_to_page_cache() returns -EEXISTJens Axboe2006-05-04
| | | | | | | | | This can happen quite easily, if several processes are trying to splice the same file at the same time. It's not a failure, it just means someone raced with us in allocating this file page. So just dump the allocated page and relookup the original. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

* [PATCH] splice: fix unlocking of page on error ->prepare_write()Jens Axboe2006-05-04

* [PATCH] splice: fix page LRU accountingJens Axboe2006-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we rely on the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU flag being set correctly to know whether we need to fiddle with page LRU state after stealing it, however for some origins we just don't know if the page is on the LRU list or not.

* [PATCH] vmsplice: fix badly placed end paranthesisJens Axboe2006-05-02

* [PATCH] vmsplice: allow user to pass in gift pagesJens Axboe2006-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | If SPLICE_F_GIFT is set, the user is basically giving this pages away to the kernel. That means we can steal them for eg page cache uses instead of copying it.

* [PATCH] pipe: enable atomic copying of pipe data to/from user spaceJens Axboe2006-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pipe ->map() method uses kmap() to virtually map the pages, which is both slow and has known scalability issues on SMP. This patch enables atomic copying of pipe pages, by pre-faulting data and using kmap_atomic() instead. lmbench bw_pipe and lat_pipe measurements agree this is a Good Thing. Here are results from that on a UP machine with highmem (1.5GiB of RAM), running first a UP kernel, SMP kernel, and SMP kernel patched.

* [PATCH] pipe: introduce ->pin() buffer operationJens Axboe2006-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The ->map() function is really expensive on highmem machines right now, since it has to use the slower kmap() instead of kmap_atomic(). Splice rarely needs to access the virtual address of a page, so it's a waste of time doing it. Introduce ->pin() to take over the responsibility of making sure the page data is valid. ->map() is then reduced to just kmap(). That way we can also share a most of the pipe buffer ops between pipe.c and splice.c Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
* [PATCH] splice: fix bugs in pipe_to_file()Jens Axboe2006-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Found by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>, fixed by me. - Only allow full pages to go to the page cache. - Check page != buf->page instead of using PIPE_BUF_FLAG_STOLEN. - Remember to clear 'stolen' if add_to_page_cache() fails. And as a cleanup on that: - Make the bottom fall-through logic a little less convoluted. Also make the steal path hold an extra reference to the page, so we don't have to differentiate between stolen and non-stolen at the end. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
* [PATCH] splice: fix bugs with stealing regular pipe pagesJens Axboe2006-04-30
| | | | | | | | | - Check that page has suitable count for stealing in the regular pipes. - pipe_to_file() assumes that the page is locked on succesful steal, so do that in the pipe steal hook - Missing unlock_page() in add_to_page_cache() failure. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

* [PATCH] Add support for the sys_vmsplice syscallJens Axboe2006-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | sys_splice() moves data to/from pipes with a file input/output. sys_vmsplice() moves data to a pipe, with the input being a user address range instead.
