When allocating data blocks, if the first try (goal allocation) fails and
stream allocation is on, it tries a global goal starting from the last
group we used (s_mb_last_group). This helps cluster large files together
to reduce free space fragmentation, and the data block contiguity also
accelerates write-back to disk.
However, when multiple processes allocate blocks, having just one global
goal means they all fight over the same group. This drastically lowers
the chances of extents merging and leads to much worse file fragmentation.
To mitigate this multi-process contention, we now employ multiple global
goals, with the number of goals being the minimum between the number of
possible CPUs and one-quarter of the filesystem's total block group count.
To ensure a consistent goal for each inode, we select the corresponding
goal by taking the inode number modulo the total number of goals.

After we optimized the block group lock, we found another lock
contention issue when running will-it-scale/fallocate2 with multiple
processes. The fallocate's block allocation and the truncate's block
release were fighting over the s_md_lock. The problem is, this lock
protects totally different things in those two processes: the list of
freed data blocks (s_freed_data_list) when releasing, and where to start
looking for new blocks (mb_last_group) when allocating.
Now we only need to track s_mb_last_group and no longer need to track
s_mb_last_start, so we don't need the s_md_lock lock to ensure that the
two are consistent. Since s_mb_last_group is merely a hint and doesn't
require strong synchronization, READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE is sufficient.
Besides, the s_mb_last_group data type only requires ext4_group_t
(i.e., unsigned int), rendering unsigned long superfluous.

When ext4 allocates blocks, we used to just go through the block groups
one by one to find a good one. But when there are tons of block groups
(like hundreds of thousands or even millions) and not many have free space
(meaning they're mostly full), it takes a really long time to check them
all, and performance gets bad. So, we added the "mb_optimize_scan" mount
option (which is on by default now). It keeps track of some group lists,
so when we need a free block, we can just grab a likely group from the
right list. This saves time and makes block allocation much faster.
But when multiple processes or containers are doing similar things, like
constantly allocating 8k blocks, they all try to use the same block group
in the same list. Even just two processes doing this can cut the IOPS in
half. For example, one container might do 300,000 IOPS, but if you run two
at the same time, the total is only 150,000.
Since we can already look at block groups in a non-linear way, the first
and last groups in the same list are basically the same for finding a block
right now. Therefore, add an ext4_try_lock_group() helper function to skip
the current group when it is locked by another process, thereby avoiding
contention with other processes. This helps ext4 make better use of having
multiple block groups.
Also, to make sure we don't skip all the groups that have free space
when allocating blocks, we won't try to skip busy groups anymore when
ac_criteria is CR_ANY_FREE.

In a discussion over a proposed patch, "ext4: replace strcpy() with
'.' assignment"[1], I had asserted that directory entries in ext4 were
not NUL terminated, and hence it was safe to replace strcpy() with a
direct assignment. As it turns out, this was incorrect. It's true
for all all directory entries *except* for '.' and '..' where the
kernel was using strcmp() and where e2fsck actually checks and offers
to fix things if '.' and '..' are not NUL terminated.

We can't change this without breaking old kernel versions, but in the

de->name_len and de->name[0,1] instead of strcmp(). This has the side

In ext4_io_end_defer_completion(), check if io_end->list_vec is empty to
avoid adding an io_end that requires no conversion to the

worker. An ext4_emergency_state() check is also added to avoid attempting
to abort the journal in an emergency state.
Additionally, ext4_put_io_end_defer() is refactored to call
ext4_io_end_defer_completion() directly instead of being open-coded.
This also prevents starting an unnecessary worker when EXT4_IO_END_FAILED
is set but data_err=abort is not enabled.
This ensures that the check in ext4_put_io_end_defer() is consistent with
the check in ext4_end_bio(). Otherwise, we might add an io_end to the
i_rsv_conversion_list and then call ext4_finish_bio(), after which the
inode could be freed before ext4_end_io_rsv_work() is called, triggering

means after it knows "cmp <= 0" is true, it has to check the value of
"sorted" and "cmp". The checking of "cmp" here would be redundant since
it has already checked it.
Observing from the logic, when "cmp == 0" the branch is going to be true,
no need to check "cmp == 0" again, so we only need to take shortcut when
"cmp == 0", on the other hand, we'll check "sorted" when "cmp < 0".

After ext4 supports large folios, reserving journal credits for one
maximum-ordered folio based on the worst case cenario during the
writeback process can easily exceed the maximum transaction credits.
Additionally, reserving journal credits for one page is also no
longer appropriate.
Currently, the folio writeback process can either extend the journal
credits or initiate a new transaction if the currently reserved journal
credits are insufficient. Therefore, it can be modified to reserve
credits for only one extent at the outset. In most cases involving
continuous mapping, these credits are generally adequate, and we may
only need to perform some basic credit expansion. However, in extreme
cases where the block size and folio size differ significantly, or when
the folios are sufficiently discontinuous, it may be necessary to
restart a new transaction and resubmit the folios.

After large folios are supported on ext4, writing back a sufficiently
large and discontinuous folio may consume a significant number of
journal credits, placing considerable strain on the journal. For
example, in a 20GB filesystem with 1K block size and 1MB journal size,
writing back a 2MB folio could require thousands of credits in the
worst-case scenario (when each block is discontinuous and distributed
across different block groups), potentially exceeding the journal size.
This issue can also occur in ext4_write_begin() and ext4_page_mkwrite()
when delalloc is not enabled.
Fix this by ensuring that there are sufficient journal credits before
allocating an extent in mpage_map_one_extent() and
ext4_block_write_begin(). If there are not enough credits, return
-EAGAIN, exit the current mapping loop, restart a new handle and a new
transaction, and allocating blocks on this folio again in the next
iteration.

When mapping a discontinuous folio in mpage_map_and_submit_extent(),
some buffers may have already be mapped. If we exit the mapping loop
prematurely, the folio data within the mapped range will not be written
back, and the file's disk size will not be updated. Once the transaction
that includes this range of extents is committed, this can lead to stale

- Fix possible UAF on error path in filter_free_subsystem_filters()
When freeing a subsystem filter, the filter for the subsystem is
passed in to be freed and all the events within the subsystem will
have their filter freed too. In order to free without waiting for RCU
synchronization, list items are allocated to hold what is going to be
freed to free it via a call_rcu(). If the allocation of these items
fails, it will call the synchronization directly and free after that
(causing a bit of delay for the user).
The subsystem filter is first added to this list and then the filters
for all the events under the subsystem. The bug is if one of the
allocations of the list items for the event filters fail to allocate,
it jumps to the "free_now" label which will free the subsystem
filter, then all the items on the allocated list, and then the event
filters that were not added to the list yet. But because the
subsystem filter was added first, it gets freed twice.
The solution is to add the subsystem filter after the events, and
then if any of the allocations fail it will not try to free any of
them twice

Pull RISC-V Fixes for 5.16-rc4
- .rodata is no longer linkd into PT_DYNAMIC.
It was not supposed to be there in the first place and resulted in
invalid (but unused) entries. This manifests as at least warnings in
llvm-readelf
- A fix for runtime constants with all-0 upper 32-bits. This should
only manifest on MMU=n kernels
- A fix for context save/restore on systems using the T-Head vector
extensions
- A fix for a conflicting "+r"/"r" register constraint in the VDSO
getrandom syscall wrapper, which is undefined behavior in clang
- A fix for a missing register clobber in the RVV raid6 implementation.
This manifests as a NULL pointer reference on some compilers, but
could trigger in other ways
- Misaligned accesses from userspace at faulting addresses are now
handled correctly
- A fix for an incorrect optimization that allowed access_ok() to mark
invalid addresses as accessible, which can result in userspace
triggering BUG()s
- A few fixes for build warnings, and an update to Drew's email address

Pull io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
- Two tweaks for a recent fix: fixing a memory leak if multiple iovecs
were initially mapped but only the first was used and hence turned
into a UBUF rathan than an IOVEC iterator, and catching a case where
a retry would be done even if the previous segment wasn't full
- Small series fixing an issue making the vm unhappy if debugging is
turned on, hitting a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE()
- Fix a resource leak in io_import_dmabuf() in the error handling case,
which is a regression in this merge window
- Mark fallocate as needing to be write serialized, as is already done
for truncate and buffered writes
