A large folio in the page cache can have folio->private == NULL when populated over a hole in f2fs_read_data_large_folio() (which skips f2fs_ffs_find_or_alloc() for unmapped blocks), or after f2fs_release_folio() calls ffs_detach_free() on a clean large folio while it remains in the page cache. When one of the PAGE_PRIVATE_SET_FUNC helpers is called on such a folio (for example via folio_mark_dirty() -> f2fs_dirty_data_folio() -> f2fs_update_dirty_folio() -> folio_set_f2fs_reference(), or redirty_blocks() -> folio_set_f2fs_gcing()), !folio->private is true, so it attaches (void *)BIT(PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER) (0x1) to folio->private. On the next statement: set_bit(PAGE_PRIVATE_##flagname, f2fs_folio_flags_addr(folio)); f2fs_folio_flags_addr(folio) calls f2fs_folio_has_ffs(folio), which checks only folio_test_large(folio) && private without checking PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER. Because folio->private is now 0x1, f2fs_folio_has_ffs(folio) returns true, f2fs_folio_flags_addr(folio) returns &((struct f2fs_folio_state *)0x1)->private_flags, and set_bit() dereferences that invalid address. Furthermore, even if f2fs_folio_has_ffs() checked PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER, attaching non-pointer bitmask flags directly to folio->private on a large folio conflicts with f2fs_ffs_find_or_alloc() in fs/f2fs/data.c: f2fs_bug_on(F2FS_F_SB(folio), test_bit(PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER, &private)); ... folio_attach_private(folio, ffs); which triggers f2fs_bug_on() and overwrites folio->private via an unpaired folio_attach_private(), losing the flags and leaking a folio reference count. Similarly, without checking PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER, ffs_detach_free() in fs/f2fs/data.c would treat a non-pointer bitmask on a large folio as a struct f2fs_folio_state pointer and pass it to kfree(). > static inline void set_page_private_##name(struct page *page) \ > { \ > @@ -2797,13 +2834,10 @@ static inline void set_page_private_##name(struct page *page) \ > #define PAGE_PRIVATE_CLEAR_FUNC(name, flagname) \ > static inline void folio_clear_f2fs_##name(struct folio *folio) \ > { \ > - unsigned long v = (unsigned long)folio->private; \ > - \ > - v &= ~(1UL << PAGE_PRIVATE_##flagname); \ > - if (v == (1UL << PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER)) \ > + clear_bit(PAGE_PRIVATE_##flagname, \ > + f2fs_folio_flags_addr(folio)); \ > + if (folio->private == (void *)BIT(PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER)) \ > folio_detach_private(folio); \ > - else \ > - folio->private = (void *)v; \ > } \ > static inline void clear_page_private_##name(struct page *page) \ > { \ > @@ -2826,7 +2860,7 @@ PAGE_PRIVATE_CLEAR_FUNC(atomic, ATOMIC_WRITE); > > static inline unsigned long folio_get_f2fs_data(struct folio *folio) > { > - unsigned long data = (unsigned long)folio->private; > + unsigned long data = f2fs_folio_get_private_flags(folio); > > if (!test_bit(PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER, &data)) > return 0; Because neither f2fs_ffs_find_or_alloc() (which allocates ffs with __GFP_ZERO) nor PAGE_PRIVATE_SET_FUNC ever sets PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER in ffs->private_flags, won't PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER always be 0 in f2fs_folio_get_private_flags(folio) whenever f2fs_folio_has_ffs(folio) is true? This appears to cause several issues for large folios with ffs attached: 1. folio_test_f2fs_nonpointer(folio) always returns false. In fs/f2fs/compress.c, f2fs_is_compressed_page() checks: if (!folio->private) return false; if (folio_test_f2fs_nonpointer(folio)) return false; f2fs_bug_on(F2FS_F_SB(folio), *((u32 *)folio->private) != F2FS_COMPRESSED_PAGE_MAGIC); return true; When CONFIG_F2FS_FS_COMPRESSION is enabled and large folio writes are enabled in later commits in this series ("f2fs: make GC migration large-folio aware" and "f2fs: allow large folio support to writeable files"), __has_merged_page() and f2fs_write_end_bio() call f2fs_is_compressed_page(folio) on large folios with ffs. Because folio_test_f2fs_nonpointer(folio) returns false, f2fs_is_compressed_page() triggers f2fs_bug_on() (setting SBI_NEED_FSCK) and returns true, causing f2fs_write_end_bio() to call f2fs_compress_write_end_io() and cast folio->private (struct f2fs_folio_state *) to struct compress_io_ctx *. Although a later commit in the series ("f2fs: make compressed files compatible with large folio") adds an explicit f2fs_folio_has_ffs(folio) check to f2fs_is_compressed_page(), the broken invariant affects the intermediate commits and leaves folio_test_f2fs_nonpointer() broken for large folios. 2. folio_get_f2fs_data(folio) checks !test_bit(PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER, &data) on the value returned by f2fs_folio_get_private_flags(folio), so it will always return 0 when ffs is attached. Meanwhile, folio_set_f2fs_data() right below it was not updated for ffs and still bitwise-ORs data directly into folio->private, which would corrupt the ffs pointer if called on a large folio. Should PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER and the data helpers be handled consistently with ffs->private_flags? >[!NOTE] >Please ayudan-rate this review via `git notes` (see https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/ai-review-prompts.git/tree/README.md): >`git notes --ref=refs/notes/ai-review add -f -m "review-rating: " 5dc0bed5a4117aeba7c4f3561339538114aa9720` >If you have thoughts you'd like to share, add `comment: ` on a new line in the note body. >We scrape relationships between patches and notes from the mailing lists, so feel free to include the note text in your reply or push the notes ref to a public tree. > >🤖 AI review engine: google/gemini-3.1-pro-preview | 💬 Prompts: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/ai-review-prompts.git/tree/ (ef3d8ff5c6eb) To: None Cc: None Status: Disabled (SMTP not configured) Tokens used: In: 1834k · Cached: 9447k · Out: 58k View Review Map·View Raw Log ↑ Back to Summary Patch 2: f2fs: carry subpage offset and count in write IO Result: No regressions Reviewed ▶ Inline Review To: None Cc: None Status: Disabled (SMTP not configured) Tokens used: In: 1465k · Cached: 15035k · Out: 54k View Review Map·View Raw Log ↑ Back to Summary Patch 3: f2fs: support regular file buffered writes on large folios Result: Critical: 0 · High: 1 · Medium: 0 · Low: 0 Reviewed ▼ Inline Review Copy commit 928ef87eb1284ddf44f56c2de4f7b745e3348066 Author: Nanzhe Zhao f2fs: support regular file buffered writes on large folios This commit adds buffered write support for regular files backed by large folios by preallocating partial blocks and synchronously reading only the unaligned head and tail 4K subpages during write_begin. > diff --git a/fs/f2fs/data.c b/fs/f2fs/data.c > index 3a3852566a2a2..f01bf06a77b05 100644 > --- a/fs/f2fs/data.c > +++ b/fs/f2fs/data.c [ ... ] > @@ -1457,6 +1496,40 @@ static void f2fs_submit_page_read(struct inode *inode, struct fsverity_info *vi, > f2fs_submit_read_bio(sbi, bio, DATA); > } > > +/* > + * Synchronously read a single 4K subpage by reusing f2fs_submit_page_read() > + * so that iostat, trace, blk-crypto and post-read handling are all preserved. > + * The caller must have already allocated ffs for the folio. > + */ > +static int f2fs_submit_page_read_sync(struct inode *inode, struct folio *folio, > + pgoff_t index, block_t blkaddr) > +{ > + struct f2fs_folio_state *ffs = > + (struct f2fs_folio_state *)folio->private; > + > + /* Add bias so end_io does not call folio_end_read(). */ > + f2fs_update_read_folio_pending(folio, 1); > + > + /* > + * We are holding the folio lock, so use GFP_NOIO for the bio > + * allocation to avoid entering mm reclaim. > + */ > + f2fs_submit_page_read(inode, NULL, folio, index, blkaddr, > + REQ_OP_READ, true); > + > + /* Wait until all bios have completed (pending drops back to our bias). */ > + while (READ_ONCE(ffs->read_pages_pending) != 1) > + f2fs_io_schedule_timeout(DEFAULT_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT); > + > + /* Remove the bias. */ > + f2fs_update_read_folio_pending(folio, -1); Can waking up here as soon as ffs->read_pages_pending reaches 1 race with f2fs_finish_read_bio() in fs/f2fs/data.c and cause a NULL pointer dereference or use-after-free on the folio? In f2fs_finish_read_bio(), ffs->read_pages_pending is decremented before dec_cache_count() accesses the folio's mapping: if (folio_test_large(folio)) { struct f2fs_folio_state *ffs = (struct f2fs_folio_state *)folio->private; spin_lock_irqsave(&ffs->state_lock, flags); ffs->read_pages_pending -= nr_pages; finished = !ffs->read_pages_pending; spin_unlock_irqrestore(&ffs->state_lock, flags); } while (nr_pages--) dec_cache_count(F2FS_F_SB(folio), F2FS_RD_DATA); Because f2fs_submit_page_read_sync() biases read_pages_pending by +1, finished is false, so f2fs_finish_read_bio() does not hold the folio lock via folio_end_read(). Once read_pages_pending is decremented to 1 and ffs->state_lock is dropped, the waiting task in f2fs_write_begin() -> prepare_large_folio_write_begin() -> f2fs_submit_page_read_sync() can immediately wake up, remove the bias, and unlock and release the folio (for example on an error path into f2fs_write_failed(), or after f2fs_write_end() followed by truncation or eviction). If the folio is truncated or freed before f2fs_finish_read_bio() executes dec_cache_count(F2FS_F_SB(folio), F2FS_RD_DATA), won't F2FS_F_SB(folio) dereference a NULL folio->mapping or a freed folio? > + > + if (!f2fs_ffs_test_blk_uptodate(folio, index)) > + return -EIO; > + > + return 0; > +} [ ... ] To: None Cc: None Status: Disabled (SMTP not configured) Tokens used: In: 1787k · Cached: 21762k · Out: 47k View Review Map·View Raw Log ↑ Back to Summary Patch 4: f2fs: support atomic file large folios buffered write Result: Critical: 0 · High: 1 · Medium: 1 · Low: 0 Reviewed ▼ Inline Review Copy commit 421c38a2fd718b3ee600d299fc93a8b83ea493ee Author: Nanzhe Zhao f2fs: support atomic file large folios buffered write This commit adds buffered write support for atomic files backed by large folios by introducing prepare_large_folio_atomic_write_begin() and updating prepare_atomic_write_begin() and f2fs_write_begin(). > diff --git a/fs/f2fs/data.c b/fs/f2fs/data.c > index f01bf06a77b05..126cad81227f0 100644 > --- a/fs/f2fs/data.c > +++ b/fs/f2fs/data.c > @@ -4305,18 +4305,22 @@ static int __reserve_data_block(struct inode *inode, pgoff_t index, > } > > static int prepare_atomic_write_begin(struct f2fs_sb_info *sbi, > - struct folio *folio, loff_t pos, unsigned int len, > - block_t *blk_addr, bool *node_changed) > + struct inode *inode, pgoff_t index, > + block_t *blk_addr, bool *node_changed, > + bool check_reserved) > { > - struct inode *inode = folio->mapping->host; > struct inode *cow_inode = F2FS_I(inode)->cow_inode; > - pgoff_t index = folio->index; > int err = 0; > block_t ori_blk_addr = NULL_ADDR; > bool cow_has_reserved_block = false; > + bool append = ((loff_t)index << PAGE_SHIFT) >= i_size_read(inode); > > - /* If pos is beyond the end of file, reserve a new block in COW inode */ > - if ((pos & PAGE_MASK) >= i_size_read(inode)) > + /* > + * On the first attempt, an append write can skip the COW lookup and > + * reserve directly.

At reserve_block in prepare_atomic_write_begin(), when cow_has_reserved_block is false, __reserve_data_block() calls f2fs_reserve_block(): if (!cow_has_reserved_block) { err = __reserve_data_block(cow_inode, index, blk_addr, node_changed); if (err) return err; inc_atomic_write_cnt(inode); } If cow_inode already has NEW_ADDR at index, f2fs_reserve_block() returns 0 without allocating a new block, and inc_atomic_write_cnt(inode) increments atomic_write_cnt and sbi->current_atomic_write a second time. Since retried in f2fs_write_begin() is a local variable initialized to false on each f2fs_write_begin() call, cow_inode can already hold NEW_ADDR at an index >= (i_size_read(inode) >> PAGE_SHIFT) with check_reserved == false in several cases: 1. In generic_perform_write(), if prepare_large_folio_atomic_write_begin() reserves NEW_ADDR for multiple subpages in [start, end], and copy_folio_from_iter_atomic() copies only the first subpage before faulting on the next user page, f2fs_write_end() advances i_size only by the copied bytes. The next loop iteration in generic_perform_write() calls f2fs_write_begin() again with retried == false for the remaining subpages where ((loff_t)index << PAGE_SHIFT) >= i_size_read(inode) is still true. 2.

The commit message notes that existing data should be read for partial head and tail subpages, and prepare_large_folio_write_begin() uses find_next_valid_block() to only zero or read unaligned boundary blocks. Here, the loop processes every block in [start, end]: 1. For full 4KB subpages in [start, end] that are about to be completely overwritten by copy_folio_from_iter_atomic(), existing blocks are synchronously read from disk via f2fs_submit_page_read_sync(). 2. For NEW_ADDR blocks (or existing blocks read in), every subpage in [start, end] is marked uptodate in ffs->state (and via folio_mark_uptodate() if all subpages in the folio become uptodate) before generic_perform_write() copies user data into the folio: fs/f2fs/data.c:f2fs_write_end() { if (!folio_test_uptodate(folio)) { if (unlikely(copied != len)) { copied = 0; } else if (folio_test_large(folio)) { f2fs_ffs_mark_subrange_uptodate(folio, offset_in_folio(folio, pos), len); } else { /* This should be come from len == PAGE_SIZE */ folio_mark_uptodate(folio); } } } If all subpages of the folio become uptodate inside prepare_large_folio_atomic_write_begin(), f2fs_ffs_mark_subrange_uptodate() marks the entire folio uptodate before user data is copied. Then at the balance label, f2fs_balance_fs_folio_locked() can unlock the uptodate folio with zeroed data visible to concurrent readers, and if copy_folio_from_iter_atomic() faults part-way through (copied != len), f2fs_write_end() sees folio_test_uptodate(folio) == true and skips resetting copied = 0, leaving unwritten zeroed bytes marked uptodate. Similarly, if [start, end] covers only part of a large folio (so folio_test_uptodate(folio) stays false while ffs->state bits for [start, end] are set) and copy_folio_from_iter_atomic() performs a short copy and faults, f2fs_write_end() sets copied = 0 but does not clear the uptodate bits in ffs->state, leaving partially modified subpages marked uptodate in ffs->state. Also, at this commit in the series, f2fs_submit_page_read_sync() adds a bias of 1 to ffs->read_pages_pending and checks f2fs_ffs_test_blk_uptodate(folio, index) before returning, which fails with -EIO until later commit bca3a5fa0cb1 ("f2fs: support partial uptodate large folio read") updates f2fs_finish_read_bio() to set per-block uptodate bits in ffs->state. Should prepare_large_folio_atomic_write_begin() only read or zero partial head and tail subpages like prepare_large_folio_write_begin() does, leaving the written range to be marked uptodate in f2fs_write_end() after copy_folio_from_iter_atomic() succeeds?

In f2fs, out-of-place writes set PG_writeback and stage the folio into sbi->write_io[DATA] without immediately submitting the bio to the block layer. Because of this, f2fs_write_cache_pages() and the internal retry path in f2fs_write_cache_folios() call f2fs_folio_wait_writeback(), which flushes cached bios via f2fs_submit_merged_write_folio() and f2fs_submit_merged_ipu_write() before calling folio_wait_writeback(). However, writeback_iter() -> writeback_get_folio() -> folio_prepare_writeback() calls raw folio_wait_writeback() under folio_lock() when wbc->sync_mode == WB_SYNC_ALL and both PG_writeback and PG_dirty are set, without flushing sbi->write_io[DATA]. For example, during foreground GC (do_garbage_collect() -> gc_data_segment() -> move_data_page()) migrating one block of a large folio that has another dirty subpage, move_data_page() sees remaining dirty subpages via f2fs_ffs_clear_subrange_dirty_and_test(), calls folio_mark_dirty(), stages the block in sbi->write_io[DATA][COLD].bio via f2fs_do_write_data_page() (setting PG_writeback), and unlocks the folio. If a concurrent WB_SYNC_ALL thread enters writeback_iter(), it locks the folio and sleeps in folio_wait_writeback() waiting for the unsubmitted bio, while gc_data_segment() blocks on folio_lock() when it encounters the next block of that large folio before do_garbage_collect() can submit the cached bio. A similar stall can occur if f2fs_write_folio_dirty_range() submits one subpage into sbi->write_io[DATA], hits an error on a later subpage, redirties and unlocks the folio at out: with PG_writeback still held by the pending subpage, and then stalls on a subsequent folio before reaching f2fs_submit_merged_write_cond() at the end of f2fs_write_cache_folios(). > + struct f2fs_folio_state *ffs = NULL; > + u64 isize; > + size_t poff; > + pgoff_t end_index; > + bool verity_in_progress; > + int folio_submitted = 0; > + bool bias_added = false; > + > + submitted = 0; > + retry = false; > + > + if (err) { > + folio_redirty_for_writepage(wbc, folio); > + goto retry_out; > + } > + > + if (atomic_read(&sbi->wb_sync_req[DATA]) && > + wbc->sync_mode == WB_SYNC_NONE) { > + folio_redirty_for_writepage(wbc, folio); > + /* > + * A WB_SYNC_ALL writeback is in progress, so defer > + * this writeback.

When the folio is unlocked for f2fs_balance_fs() or during the f2fs_io_schedule_timeout() backoff when f2fs_trylock_op() fails on WB_SYNC_ALL, a concurrent checkpoint or GC can fail and set CP_ERROR_FLAG. Jumping to retry: bypasses the f2fs_cp_error(sbi) check above, so instead of recording -EIO via mapping_set_error() and handling the dirty state for cp_error (as f2fs_write_single_data_page() does on every retry in f2fs_write_cache_pages()), writeback proceeds into block allocation or redirties the folio on error without setting the mapping error. > + pos = folio_pos(folio); > + end_pos = pos + folio_size(folio); > + isize = i_size_read(inode); > + verity_in_progress = f2fs_verity_in_progress(inode); > + poff = 0; > + end_index = 0; > + > + if (retry) { > + > + if (unlikely(folio->mapping != mapping)) > + goto retry_out; > + > + if (!folio_test_dirty(folio)) > + goto retry_out; > + > + if (folio_test_writeback(folio)) { > + if (wbc->sync_mode == WB_SYNC_NONE) > + goto retry_out; > + f2fs_folio_wait_writeback(folio, true, true); > + } > + > + if (!folio_clear_dirty_for_io(folio)) > + goto retry_out; > + } > + > + /* To avoid dealing with the complexity for one subrange is in bio > + * while we trylock_op failed before writing another subrange. > + * Try to lock_op before any subrange write for the folio. > + */ > + if (!op_locked) { > + if (!f2fs_trylock_op(sbi, &lc)) { > + folio_redirty_for_writepage(wbc, folio); > + err = 0; > + if (wbc->sync_mode != WB_SYNC_ALL) > + goto retry_out; > + > + retry = true; > + folio_unlock(folio); > + f2fs_io_schedule_timeout(DEFAULT_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT); > + folio_lock(folio); > + goto retry; > + } > + op_locked = true; > + } > + > + if (!verity_in_progress) { > + poff = offset_in_folio(folio, isize); > + end_index = isize >> PAGE_SHIFT; > + > + if (folio->index > end_index || > + (folio->index == end_index && poff == 0)) > + goto out; Does jumping to out: here (as well as jumping to retry_out: in the f2fs_cp_error(sbi) branch when errors != MOUNT_ERRORS_READONLY) leave stale PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE tags in mapping->i_pages? writeback_iter() (via folio_prepare_writeback() -> folio_clear_dirty_for_io()) and the retry path clear PG_dirty on the folio while leaving PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE set in the xarray until folio_start_writeback() or folio_redirty_for_writepage() is called. When a folio is at or beyond isize and jumps to out: before folio_start_writeback() is called, or when f2fs_cp_error(sbi) drops the dirty state and jumps to retry_out:, the folio is unlocked with PG_dirty == 0 without ever calling folio_start_writeback() / folio_end_writeback(). That leaves PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE set on a clean folio in mapping->i_pages, causing VFS writeback (__writeback_single_inode()) to see mapping_tagged(mapping, PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY) and repeatedly requeue the inode via redirty_tail_locked() while __f2fs_write_data_pages() immediately returns 0 on WB_SYNC_NONE because get_dirty_pages(inode) is 0. > + > + if (end_pos > isize) { > + folio_zero_segment(folio, poff, folio_size(folio)); > + end_pos = isize; > + } > + } > + > + folio_start_writeback(folio); > + > + /* > + * Large folios can be submitted as multiple bios, which may > + * complete while we are still submitting the remaining dirty > + * ranges.

When ffs_find_dirty_range() finds a second dirty range in the same folio, submitted still holds the count from the previous range(s), so folio_submitted += submitted and nwritten += submitted add the earlier ranges' counts again on each subsequent iteration (including when a later range errors out before submitting any block).

When pos < isize < end_pos and !verity_in_progress, the code earlier clamps end_pos = isize so ffs_find_dirty_range() only writes subpages up to isize. At out:, when err == 0, f2fs_ffs_clear_subrange_dirty_and_test() is called with length end_pos - folio_pos(folio) (i.e. isize - folio_pos(folio)) rather than folio_size(folio).

However, f2fs_ffs_mark_subrange_dirty() in fs/f2fs/data.c requires all subpages in the range to already be uptodate: /* * Mark the given range dirty for writeback. * * Callers must guarantee that the corresponding subpages are already * uptodate: a dirty subpage always holds the latest data, whose * on-disk copy may be stale. */ void f2fs_ffs_mark_subrange_dirty(struct folio *folio, size_t offset, size_t len) In both do_shared_fault() and wp_page_shared(), the folio is unlocked and mapping->invalidate_lock is not held before calling do_page_mkwrite() -> f2fs_vm_page_mkwrite(). In that window, a concurrent hole punch (f2fs_punch_hole() -> truncate_pagecache_range() -> truncate_inode_partial_folio() -> f2fs_invalidate_folio()) or truncation on another subpage of the same large folio can clear the uptodate bits in ffs->state for the invalidated subpages and call folio_clear_uptodate(folio). Because the faulting thread holds a folio reference (or another subpage is dirty), folio_split() in truncate_inode_partial_folio() fails and leaves the folio in inode->i_mapping with !folio_test_uptodate(folio) and cleared per-block uptodate bits in ffs->state. Similarly, f2fs_write_folio_dirty_range() -> f2fs_clear_truncated_page_state() can clear a subpage's uptodate bit in ffs->state and clear folio uptodate. When f2fs_vm_page_mkwrite() then locks the folio, checking only the faulted subpage at pidx succeeds if that subpage is still uptodate in ffs->state. It then re-allocates blocks over the invalidated hole via f2fs_get_block_mkwrite(), marks the non-uptodate subpages dirty in ffs->state, and returns VM_FAULT_LOCKED while !folio_test_uptodate(folio) (allowing do_shared_fault() -> finish_fault() to install PTEs for the non-uptodate folio). Since f2fs_vm_page_mkwrite() dirties the entire [0, dirty_len) range, should it still verify that the folio (or every subpage in [0, dirty_len)) is uptodate before allocating blocks and marking the range dirty?

While subsequent patches in this series update truncate_partial_data_page(), fill_zero(), and __clone_blkaddrs() to mark subpages dirty via f2fs_ffs_mark_subrange_dirty(), what happens when f2fs_defragment_range() or f2fs_migrate_blocks() encounters a large folio?

Similarly, if a file had large folios populated while immutable and then had FS_IMMUTABLE_FL cleared via f2fs_fileattr_set() (which leaves AS_LARGE_FOLIO_SUPPORT and cached large folios in inode->i_mapping), both f2fs_defragment_range() and f2fs_swap_activate() -> check_swap_activate() -> f2fs_migrate_blocks() can receive a large folio with ffs attached.

In check_swap_activate(), f2fs_migrate_blocks() returns 0 without migrating the unaligned extent and jumps to goto retry, resulting in an unbounded loop.

When f2fs_write_single_data_page() writes back an order-0 folio that had gcing set (by BG_GC or f2fs_defragment_range()), it first calls f2fs_do_write_data_page() with fio.need_lock = LOCK_RETRY: if (err == -EAGAIN) { err = f2fs_do_write_data_page(&fio); if (err == -EAGAIN) { f2fs_bug_on(sbi, compr_blocks); fio.need_lock = LOCK_REQ; err = f2fs_do_write_data_page(&fio); } } If f2fs_trylock_op() fails under cp_rwsem contention in the LOCK_RETRY attempt, f2fs_do_write_data_page() jumps to out_writepage -> out and clears gcing on the folio before the LOCK_REQ retry or the redirty_out path runs. For a large folio where the migrating subpage was the only dirty subpage, its dirty bit in ffs->state was already cleared before calling f2fs_do_write_data_page(), so f2fs_ffs_has_dirty_subpage() also returns false and clears gcing before the retry or redirty_out path. Similarly, in move_data_page() (FG_GC), if f2fs_do_write_data_page() fails and no other subpage is dirty, f2fs_do_write_data_page() clears gcing, and move_data_page() then redirties the subpage when is_dirty is true without restoring gcing (or if an unrelated subpage in the large folio is dirty from a normal write, f2fs_ffs_has_dirty_subpage() returns true and leaves gcing set on the folio even when FG_GC fails, while early returns like FAULT_SKIP_WRITE bypass out: altogether). Losing the gcing flag on a migrating folio allows f2fs_should_update_outplace() to permit in-place writes back to the victim segment, changes segment routing in __get_segment_type_6(), and alters F2FS_WB_CP_DATA accounting in f2fs_is_cp_guaranteed(). > diff --git a/fs/f2fs/gc.c b/fs/f2fs/gc.c > index c66ca03d0d5a3..c3e01f6811b4a 100644 > --- a/fs/f2fs/gc.c > +++ b/fs/f2fs/gc.c [ ... ] > @@ -1558,28 +1567,37 @@ static int move_data_page(struct inode *inode, block_t bidx, int gc_type, > .need_lock = LOCK_REQ, > .io_type = FS_GC_DATA_IO, > }; > - bool is_dirty = folio_test_dirty(folio); > + bool is_dirty = f2fs_ffs_test_blk_dirty(folio, bidx); > > retry: > f2fs_folio_wait_writeback(folio, true, true); > > + if (large) > + f2fs_ffs_mark_subrange_dirty(folio, foff, PAGE_SIZE); > folio_mark_dirty(folio); > if (folio_clear_dirty_for_io(folio)) { > - inode_dec_dirty_block(inode); > - f2fs_remove_dirty_inode(inode); > + if (!large) { > + inode_dec_dirty_block(inode); > + f2fs_remove_dirty_inode(inode); > + } else if (f2fs_ffs_clear_subrange_dirty_and_test(folio, > + foff, PAGE_SIZE)) { > + folio_mark_dirty(folio); > + } > } > > folio_set_f2fs_gcing(folio); > > err = f2fs_do_write_data_page(&fio); Could re-marking the large folio dirty here while queueing a single subpage into sbi->write_io cause an AB-BA deadlock between foreground GC and a concurrent WB_SYNC_ALL writeback thread? Consider a large folio with multiple dirty subpages where at least two blocks reside in a victim segment being migrated by FG_GC (do_garbage_collect() -> gc_data_segment() -> move_data_page()): 1. For the first subpage, move_data_page() calls f2fs_ffs_clear_subrange_dirty_and_test(), which returns true because another subpage is still dirty, and then calls folio_mark_dirty(folio). 2. f2fs_do_write_data_page() calls __folio_start_writeback(folio, folio_test_dirty(folio)) with keep_write true (leaving both PG_dirty / PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY / PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE and PG_writeback set on the folio) and queues the block into the cached BIO in sbi->write_io[DATA][COLD] via f2fs_outplace_write_data() -> f2fs_submit_page_write(). 3. move_data_page() unlocks the folio via f2fs_folio_put(folio, true) without submitting the merged BIO in sbi->write_io[DATA][COLD] (which is normally flushed either when move_data_page() calls f2fs_folio_wait_writeback() on the next subpage under folio_lock, or at the end of do_garbage_collect() via f2fs_submit_merged_write()). 4. Before GC locks the folio for the second subpage, a concurrent WB_SYNC_ALL writeback (such as fsync() or sync()) enters f2fs_write_cache_folios() -> writeback_iter() -> writeback_get_folio() -> folio_prepare_writeback(), which locks the folio and sees both folio_test_dirty(folio) and folio_test_writeback(folio) set. 5. folio_prepare_writeback() calls generic folio_wait_writeback(folio) while holding folio_lock(folio). Unlike f2fs_folio_wait_writeback(), generic folio_wait_writeback() does not call f2fs_submit_merged_write_folio() to flush the cached BIO in sbi->write_io[DATA][COLD]. 6. When gc_data_segment() moves to the next block of the same folio, move_data_page() -> f2fs_get_lock_data_folio() blocks on folio_lock(folio) held by the writeback thread, while the writeback thread waits indefinitely in folio_wait_writeback(folio) for the GC thread to submit the cached BIO. > if (err) { > - folio_clear_f2fs_gcing(folio); > if (err == -ENOMEM) { > memalloc_retry_wait(GFP_NOFS); > goto retry; > } > - if (is_dirty) > + if (is_dirty) { > + if (large) > + f2fs_ffs_mark_subrange_dirty(folio, foff, PAGE_SIZE); > folio_mark_dirty(folio); > + } > } > } > out: [ ... ] To: None Cc: None Status: Disabled (SMTP not configured) Tokens used: In: 1894k · Cached: 22026k · Out: 76k View Review Map·View Raw Log ↑ Back to Summary Patch 9: f2fs: optimize small block size large folio read Result: Critical: 0 · High: 1 · Medium: 0 · Low: 0 Reviewed ▼ Inline Review Copy commit ec87e8e9211921ee45324f3294d311bcd0175dad Author: Nanzhe Zhao f2fs: optimize small block size large folio read This commit batches read_pages_pending and iostat updates across contiguous mapped blocks in f2fs_read_data_large_folio() and switches f2fs_finish_read_bio() and f2fs_read_data_large_folio() to check f2fs_folio_has_ffs(). > diff --git a/fs/f2fs/data.c b/fs/f2fs/data.c > index b3ada22cb0cbe..b805dbe2c1875 100644 > --- a/fs/f2fs/data.c > +++ b/fs/f2fs/data.c > @@ -158,7 +158,7 @@ static void f2fs_finish_read_bio(struct bio *bio, bool in_task) > continue; > } > > - if (folio_test_large(folio)) { > + if (f2fs_folio_has_ffs(folio)) { > struct f2fs_folio_state *ffs = > (struct f2fs_folio_state *)folio->private; > Can f2fs_folio_has_ffs() treat a non-pointer PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER flag value on folio->private as a struct f2fs_folio_state pointer?

Doesn't this cause f2fs_defragment_range() to silently skip migrating blocks in large folios, cause check_swap_activate() to loop on goto retry until free sections are exhausted (-ENOSPC), and leave PG_dirty large folios with zero dirty subpage bits and unincremented inode->dirty_pages if the loop exits on error before filemap_fdatawrite()?

In fs/f2fs/file.c:f2fs_vm_page_mkwrite(), f2fs_convert_inline_inode() is called before acquiring filemap_invalidate_lock_shared() or the folio lock, and without holding inode_lock: err = f2fs_convert_inline_inode(inode); if (err) goto out; In fs/f2fs/inline.c:f2fs_convert_inline_inode(), the initial f2fs_has_inline_data(inode) check is unlocked: if (!f2fs_has_inline_data(inode)) return 0; ... folio = f2fs_grab_cache_folio(inode->i_mapping, 0, false); if (IS_ERR(folio)) return PTR_ERR(folio); f2fs_bug_on(sbi, folio_test_large(folio)); f2fs_lock_op(sbi, &lc); ... if (f2fs_has_inline_data(inode)) err = f2fs_convert_inline_folio(&dn, folio); If thread A enters f2fs_vm_page_mkwrite()->f2fs_convert_inline_inode() on an inline file whose mapping supports large folios and passes the initial !f2fs_has_inline_data(inode) check, thread B can concurrently convert the inline inode (clearing FI_INLINE_DATA), truncate or evict index 0, and perform a buffered write via f2fs_write_begin() that allocates a large folio at index 0: fgp |= fgf_set_order(f2fs_has_inline_data(inode) ? PAGE_SIZE : len); folio = f2fs_filemap_get_folio(mapping, index, fgp, mapping_gfp_mask(mapping)); When thread A then calls f2fs_grab_cache_folio(inode->i_mapping, 0, false), it gets the newly installed large folio at index 0 and hits f2fs_bug_on(sbi, folio_test_large(folio)) before reaching the serialized f2fs_has_inline_data(inode) check under f2fs_get_inode_cache(). Should the folio_test_large(folio) check be moved inside the if (f2fs_has_inline_data(inode)) block?
