Commit Message

Chao Yu June 29, 2019, 7:30 a.m. UTC
Some filesystems like erofs/reiserfs have the ability to pack tail
data into metadata, however iomap framework can only support mapping
inline data with IOMAP_INLINE type, it restricts that:
- inline data should be locating at page #0.
- inline size should equal to .i_size
So we can not use IOMAP_INLINE to handle tail-packing case.

This patch introduces new mapping type IOMAP_TAIL to map tail-packed
data for further use of erofs.

need flush_dcache_page(page) here for new page cache page since
it's generic iomap code (althrough not necessary for x86, arm), I am not sure...
see commit d2b2c6dd227b and c01778001a4f...

Wouldn't it be easier simply to fix the meaning of IOMAP_INLINE so that
it can be used at something other than offset 0 and length == isize?
IOWs, make it mean "use the *inline_data pointer to read/write data
as a direct memory access"?

I also don't really like the idea of leaving the write paths
unimplemented in core code, though I suppose as an erofs developer
you're not likely to have a good means for testing... :/

/me starts wondering if a better solution would be to invent iomaptestfs
which exists solely to test all iomap code with as little other
intelligence as possible...

Yes.  I vaguely remember Andreas pointed out some issues with a
general scheme, which is why we put the limits in.  If that is not just
me making things up we'll need to address them.  Either way just copy
and pasting code isn't very helpful.

Thanks for your reminding, these all codes were copied from
iomap_read_inline_data(), so I think we need a separated patch to fix this issue
if necessary.

Yes, just a reminder, it is good as it-is.

I thought about that, finally I implemented this by adding a new type because:
-  I checked fs.h, noticing that there are two separated flags:
FS_INLINE_DATA_FL and FS_NOTAIL_FL, I guess they are separated features, but not
sure about it...
- If we keep those restriction of inline data, maybe we can help to do sanity
check on inline data for most inline function callers additionally, since most
filesystems implement inline_data feature with restriction by default.

Anyway, I can change IOMAP_INLINE's restriction, and adjust erofs to use it if
there is no further concern on those restrictions.

Yes, I don't like it too, but previously I didn't add it because I'm not sure
that, recently we have potential user of IOMAP_TAIL's write path except
reiserfs, it may be out-of-{maintain,test} due to lack of user later....

Good idea, any plan on this fs? :)

Now, for erofs, as we don't support mapping hole, so I just inject code to force
covering IOMAP_HOLE path. :P

Not sure if that means that IOMAP_INLINE as is works for you now. In
any case, if the inline data isn't transparently copied into the page
cache at index 0, memory-mapped I/O isn't going to work.

The code further assumes that "packed" files consist of exactly one
IOMAP_INLINE mapping; no IOMAP_MAPPED or other mappings may follow. Is
it that assumption that's causing you trouble? If so, what's the
layout at the filesystem level you want to support?

Yes, that's the problem we met.

> layout at the filesystem level you want to support?

The layout which can support tail-merge one, it means if the data locating at
the tail of file has small enough size, we can inline the tail data into
metadata area. e.g.:

IOMAP_MAPPED [0, 8192]
IOMAP_INLINE (or maybe IOMAP_TAIL) [8192, 8200]

Ah, now I see. Let's generalize the IOMAP_INLINE code to support that
and rename it to IOMAP_TAIL then.

Okay, it's fine to me, let me refactor the RFC patch. ;)
