2012-01-12mm: compaction: introduce sync-light migration for use by compactionMel Gorman
This patch adds a lightweight sync migrate operation MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT mode that avoids writing back pages to backing storage. Async compaction maps to MIGRATE_ASYNC while sync compaction maps to MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT. For other migrate_pages users such as memory hotplug, MIGRATE_SYNC is used. This avoids sync compaction stalling for an excessive length of time, particularly when copying files to a USB stick where there might be a large number of dirty pages backed by a filesystem that does not support ->writepages.

2012-01-12mm: compaction: determine if dirty pages can be migrated without blocking ↵Mel Gorman
within ->migratepage Asynchronous compaction is used when allocating transparent hugepages to avoid blocking for long periods of time. Due to reports of stalling, there was a debate on disabling synchronous compaction but this severely impacted allocation success rates. Part of the reason was that many dirty pages are skipped in asynchronous compaction by the following check; if (PageDirty(page) && !sync && mapping->a_ops->migratepage != migrate_page) rc = -EBUSY; This skips over all mapping aops using buffer_migrate_page() even though it is possible to migrate some of these pages without blocking. This patch updates the ->migratepage callback with a "sync" parameter. It is the responsibility of the callback to fail gracefully if migration would block.

2012-01-06NFS: Remove pNFS bloat from the generic write pathTrond Myklebust
We have no business doing any this in the standard write release path. Get rid of it, and put it in the pNFS layer. Also, while we're at it, get rid of the completely bogus unlock/relock semantics that were present in nfs_writeback_release_full(). It is not only unnecessary, but actually dangerous to release the write lock just in order to take it again in nfs_page_async_flush(). Better just to open code the pgio operations in a pnfs helper.

2011-10-18nfs: don't try to migrate pages with active requestsJeff Layton
nfs_find_and_lock_request will take a reference to the nfs_page and will then put it if the req is already locked. It's possible though that the reference will be the last one. That put then can kick off a whole series of reference puts: nfs_page nfs_open_context dentry inode If the inode ends up being deleted, then the VFS will call truncate_inode_pages. That function will try to take the page lock, but it was already locked when migrate_page was called. The code deadlocks. Fix this by simply refusing the migration request if PagePrivate is already set, indicating that the page is already associated with an active read or write request. We've had a customer test a backported version of this patch and the preliminary results seem good.

2011-10-18nfs: don't redirty inode when ncommit == 0 in nfs_commit_unstable_pagesJeff Layton
commit 420e3646 allowed the kernel to reduce the number of unnecessary commit calls by skipping the commit when there are a large number of outstanding pages. However, the current test in nfs_commit_unstable_pages does not handle the edge condition properly. When ncommit == 0, then that means that the kernel doesn't need to do anything more for the inode. The current test though in the WB_SYNC_NONE case will return true, and the inode will end up being marked dirty. Once that happens the inode will never be clean until there's a WB_SYNC_ALL flush. Fix this by immediately returning from nfs_commit_unstable_pages when ncommit == 0. Mike noticed this problem initially in RHEL5 (2.6.18-based kernel) which has a backported version of 420e3646. The inode cache there was growing very large. The inode cache was unable to be shrunk since the inodes were all marked dirty. Calling sync() would essentially "fix" the problem -- the WB_SYNC_ALL flush would result in the inodes all being marked clean. What I'm not clear on is how big a problem this is in mainline kernels as the writeback code there is very different. Either way, it seems incorrect to re-mark the inode dirty in this case.

The reverted commit was rendered obsolete by a VFS fix: commit 5547e8aac6f71505d621a612de2fca0dd988b439 (writeback: Update dirty flags in two steps). We now no longer need to worry about writeback_single_inode() missing our marking the inode for COMMIT in 'do_writepages()' call. Reverting this patch, fixes a performance regression in which the inode would continuously get queued to the dirty list, causing the writeback code to unnecessarily try to send a COMMIT.

It is up to the driver to have preallocated list headers for each destination it may need. pnfs_commit_list() is how the driver actually takes control, it is used instead of nfs_commit_list(). In order to pass information between the above functions, we create a union in nfs_page to hold a lseg (which is possible because the req is not on any list while in transition), and add some flags to indicate if we need to use the pnfs code.
