Recent work in the pgio layer made it possible for there to be more than one
request per page. This caused a subtle change in commit behavior, because
write.c:nfs_commit_unstable_pages compares the number of *pages* waiting for
writeback against the number of requests on a commit list to choose when to
send a COMMIT in a non-blocking flush.
This is probably hard to hit in normal operation - you have to be using
rsize/wsize < PAGE_SIZE, or pnfs with lots of boundaries that are not page
aligned to have a noticeable change in behavior.

Commit 6094f83864
"nfs: allow coalescing of subpage requests" got rid of the requirement
that requests cover whole pages, but it made some incorrect assumptions.
It turns out that callers of this interface can map adjacent requests
(by file position as seen by req_offset + req->wb_bytes) to different pages,
even when they could share a page. An example is the direct I/O interface -
iov_iter_get_pages_alloc may return one segment with a partial page filled
and the next segment (which is adjacent in the file position) starts with a
new page.

Adjacent requests that share the same page are allowed, but should only
use one entry in the page vector. This avoids overruning the page
vector - it is sized based on how many bytes there are, not by
request count.
This fixes issues that manifest as "Redzone overwritten" bugs (the
vector overrun) and hangs waiting on page read / write, as it waits on
the same page more than once.
This also adds bounds checking to the page vector with a graceful failure
(WARN_ON_ONCE and pgio error returned to application).

It is currently not possible for various wait_on_bit functions
to implement a timeout.
While the "action" function that is called to do the waiting
could certainly use schedule_timeout(), there is no way to carry
forward the remaining timeout after a false wake-up.
As false-wakeups a clearly possible at least due to possible
hash collisions in bit_waitqueue(), this is a real problem.
The 'action' function is currently passed a pointer to the word
containing the bit being waited on. No current action functions
use this pointer. So changing it to something else will be a
little noisy but will have no immediate effect.
This patch changes the 'action' function to take a pointer to
the "struct wait_bit_key", which contains a pointer to the word
containing the bit so nothing is really lost.
It also adds a 'private' field to "struct wait_bit_key", which
is initialized to zero.
An action function can now implement a timeout with something
like
static int timed_out_waiter(struct wait_bit_key *key)
{
unsigned long waited;
if (key->private == 0) {
key->private = jiffies;
if (key->private == 0)
key->private -= 1;
}
waited = jiffies - key->private;
if (waited > 10 * HZ)
return -EAGAIN;
schedule_timeout(waited - 10 * HZ);
return 0;
}
If any other need for context in a waiter were found it would be
easy to use ->private for some other purpose, or even extend
"struct wait_bit_key".
My particular need is to support timeouts in nfs_release_page()
to avoid deadlocks with loopback mounted NFS.
While wait_on_bit_timeout() would be a cleaner interface, it
will not meet my need. I need the timeout to be sensitive to
the state of the connection with the server, which could change.
So I need to use an 'action' interface.

The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action'
function to be provided which does the actual waiting.
There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical.
Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one
which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule().
So:
Rename wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock to
wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action
to make it explicit that they need an action function.
Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io
which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use
a standard one.
The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made
based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action
function.
All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which
can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their
action functions have been discarded.
wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the
event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and
interpolate their own error code as appropriate.
The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was
ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used
fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function.
David Howells confirms this should be uniformly
"uninterruptible"
The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS
which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call.
A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action'
functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan'
field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan).
As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they
will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack. So
the distinction will still be visible, only with different
function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the
gfs2/glock.c case).
Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action
functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS. CIFS also now
uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware
schedule call as NFS.

Change nfs_find_and_lock_request so nfs_page_async_flush can handle multiple
requests in a page. There is only one request for a page the first time
nfs_page_async_flush is called, but if a write or commit fails, async_flush
is called again and there may be multiple requests associated with the page.
The solution is to merge all the requests in a page group into a single
request before calling nfs_pageio_add_request.
Rename nfs_find_and_lock_request to nfs_lock_and_join_requests and
change it to first lock all requests for the page, then cancel and merge

Add "page groups" - a circular list of nfs requests (struct nfs_page)
that all reference the same page. This gives nfs read and write paths
the ability to account for sub-page regions independently. This
somewhat follows the design of struct buffer_head's sub-page
accounting.
Only "head" requests are ever added/removed from the inode list in
the buffered write path. "head" and "sub" requests are treated the
same through the read path and the rest of the write/commit path.
Requests are given an extra reference across the life of the list.
Page groups are never rejoined after being split. If the read/write
request fails and the client falls back to another path (ie revert
to MDS in PNFS case), the already split requests are pushed through
the recoalescing code again, which may split them further and then
coalesce them into properly sized requests on the wire. Fragmentation
shouldn't be a problem with the current design, because we flush all
requests in page group when a non-contiguous request is added, so
the only time resplitting should occur is on a resend of a read or
write.
This patch lays the groundwork for sub-page splitting, but does not
actually do any splitting. For now all page groups have one request
as pg_test functions don't yet split pages. There are several related
patches that are needed support multiple requests per page group.

This is a step toward allowing pg_test to inform the the
coalescing code to reduce the size of requests so they may fit in
whatever scheme the pg_test callback wants to define.
For now, just return the size of the request if there is space, or 0
if there is not. This shouldn't change any behavior as it acts
the same as when the pg_test functions returned bool.

At this point the read and write structures look identical, so combine
them into something shared by both.

What we have here is two functions that look identical. Let's share
some more code!

Once again, these two functions look identical in the read and write
case. Time to combine them together!

Most of this code is the same for both the read and write paths, so
combine everything and use the rw_ops when necessary.

These functions are almost identical on both the read and write side.
FLUSH_COND_STABLE will never be set for the read path, so leaving it in
the generic code won't hurt anything.

At this point, the read and write versions of this function look
identical so both should use the same function.

Write adds a little bit of code dealing with flush flags, but since
"how" will always be 0 when reading we can share the code.

The read and write paths set up this struct in exactly the same way, so
create a single shared struct.

Combining these functions will let me make a single nfs_rw_common_ops
struct (see the next patch).
