2026-06-04mm: kick writeback flusher for IOCB_DONTCACHE with targeted dirty trackingJeff Layton1-1/+2
The IOCB_DONTCACHE writeback path in generic_write_sync() calls filemap_flush_range() on every write, submitting writeback inline in the writer's context. Perf lock contention profiling shows the performance problem is not lock contention but the writeback submission work itself — walking the page tree and submitting I/O blocks the writer for milliseconds, inflating p99.9 latency from 23ms (buffered) to 93ms (dontcache). Replace the inline filemap_flush_range() call with a flusher kick that drains dirty pages in the background. This moves writeback submission completely off the writer's hot path. To avoid flushing unrelated buffered dirty data, add a dedicated WB_start_dontcache bit and wb_check_start_dontcache() handler that uses the per-wb WB_DONTCACHE_DIRTY counter to determine how many pages to write back. The flusher writes back that many pages from the oldest dirty inodes (not restricted to dontcache-specific inodes). This helps preserve I/O batching while limiting the scope of expedited writeback. Like WB_start_all, the WB_start_dontcache bit coalesces multiple DONTCACHE writes into a single flusher wakeup without per-write allocations. Use test_and_clear_bit to atomically consume the kick request before reading the dirty counter and starting writeback, so that concurrent DONTCACHE writes during writeback can re-set the bit and schedule a follow-up flusher run. Read the dirty counter with wb_stat_sum() (aggregating per-CPU batches) rather than wb_stat() (which reads only the global counter) to ensure small writes below the percpu batch threshold are visible to the flusher. In filemap_dontcache_kick_writeback(), set the WB_start_dontcache bit inside the unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin/end section for correct cgroup writeback domain targeting, but defer the wb_wakeup() call until after the section ends, since wb_wakeup() uses spin_unlock_irq() which would unconditionally re-enable interrupts while the i_pages xa_lock may still be held under irqsave during a cgroup writeback switch. Pin the wb with wb_get() inside the RCU critical section before calling wb_wakeup() outside it, since cgroup bdi_writeback structures are RCU-freed and the wb pointer could become invalid after unlocked_inode_to_wb_end() drops the RCU read lock. Also add WB_REASON_DONTCACHE as a new writeback reason for tracing visibility. dontcache-bench results (same host, T6F_SKL_1920GBF, 251 GiB RAM, xfs on NVMe, fio io_uring): Buffered and direct I/O paths are unaffected by this patchset. All improvements are confined to the dontcache path: Single-stream throughput (MB/s): Before After Change seq-write/dontcache 298 897 +201% rand-write/dontcache 131 236 +80% Tail latency improvements (seq-write/dontcache): p99: 135,266 us -> 23,986 us (-82%) p99.9: 8,925,479 us -> 28,443 us (-99.7%) Multi-writer (4 jobs, sequential write): Before After Change dontcache aggregate (MB/s) 2,529 4,532 +79% dontcache p99 (us) 8,553 1,002 -88% dontcache p99.9 (us) 109,314 1,057 -99% Dontcache multi-writer throughput now matches buffered (4,532 vs 4,616 MB/s). 32-file write (Axboe test): Before After Change dontcache aggregate (MB/s) 1,548 3,499 +126% dontcache p99 (us) 10,170 602 -94% Peak dirty pages (MB) 1,837 213 -88% Dontcache now reaches 81% of buffered throughput (was 35%). Competing writers (dontcache vs buffered, separate files): Before After buffered writer 868 433 MB/s dontcache writer 415 433 MB/s Aggregate 1,284 866 MB/s Previously the buffered writer starved the dontcache writer 2:1. With per-bdi_writeback tracking, both writers now receive equal bandwidth. The aggregate matches the buffered-vs-buffered baseline (863 MB/s), indicating fair sharing regardless of I/O mode. The dontcache writer's p99.9 latency collapsed from 119 ms to 33 ms (-73%), eliminating the severe periodic stalls seen in the baseline. Both writers now share identical latency profiles, matching the buffered-vs-buffered pattern. The per-bdi_writeback dirty tracking dramatically reduces peak dirty pages in dontcache workloads, with the 32-file test dropping from 1.8 GB to 213 MB. Dontcache sequential write throughput triples and multi-writer throughput reaches parity with buffered I/O, with tail latencies collapsing by 1-2 orders of magnitude.

2026-06-01spi: fsl-lpspi: fix DMA termination issuesMark Brown3-1/+10
Carlos Song (OSS) <carlos.song@oss.nxp.com> says: This series fixes two issues in the fsl-lpspi DMA transfer error paths. Patch 1 replaces the deprecated dmaengine_terminate_all() with dmaengine_terminate_sync() across all error paths in fsl_lpspi_dma_transfer(). Patch 2 fixes a missing RX DMA channel termination when TX descriptor preparation fails. Since the RX channel is already submitted and issued before the TX descriptor is prepared, returning -EINVAL without terminating the RX channel leaves it running against buffers that the SPI core will unmap, potentially causing memory corruption.

2026-05-28mm/vmscan: add balance_pgdat begin/end tracepointsBunyod Suvonov1-0/+52
Vmscan has six main reclaim entry points: try_to_free_pages() for direct reclaim, try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages() for memcg reclaim, mem_cgroup_shrink_node() for memcg soft limit reclaim, node_reclaim() for node reclaim, shrink_all_memory() for hibernation reclaim, and balance_pgdat() for kswapd reclaim. All of them, except for shrink_all_memory() and balance_pgdat(), already have begin/end tracepoints. This makes it harder to trace which reclaim path is responsible for memory reclaim activity, because kswapd reclaim cannot be identified as cleanly as other reclaim entry points, even though it is the main background reclaim path under memory pressure. There may be no need to trace shrink_all_memory() as it is primarily used during hibernation. So this patch adds the missing tracepoint pair for balance_pgdat(). The begin tracepoint records the node id, requested reclaim order, and the requested classzone bound (highest_zoneidx). The end tracepoint records the node id, the reclaim order that balance_pgdat() finished with, the requested classzone bound, and nr_reclaimed. Together, they show the requested reclaim order and classzone bound, whether reclaim fell back to a lower order, and how much reclaim work was done. The end tracepoint also records highest_zoneidx even though it does not change within a balance_pgdat() invocation. This keeps the end event self-contained, so users can analyze reclaim results directly from end events without depending on begin/end correlation, which is less convenient when tracing is filtered or records are dropped. It also makes it straightforward to relate nr_reclaimed and the final reclaim order to the requested classzone bound.

2026-05-26blk-mq: add tracepoint block_rq_tag_waitAaron Tomlin1-0/+59
In high-performance storage environments, particularly when utilising RAID controllers with shared tag sets (BLK_MQ_F_TAG_HCTX_SHARED), severe latency spikes can occur when fast devices (SSDs) are starved of hardware tags when sharing the same blk_mq_tag_set. Currently, diagnosing this specific hardware queue contention is difficult. When a CPU thread exhausts the tag pool, blk_mq_get_tag() forces the current thread to block uninterruptible via io_schedule(). While this can be inferred via sched:sched_switch or dynamically traced by attaching a kprobe to blk_mq_mark_tag_wait(), there is no dedicated, out-of-the-box observability for this event. This patch introduces the block_rq_tag_wait tracepoint in the tag allocation slow-path. It triggers immediately before the task state is altered to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE (ensuring safety for PREEMPT_RT locks). It exposes the exact hardware context (hctx) that is starved, the specific pool experiencing starvation (driver, software scheduler, or reserved), and the exact pool depth. This provides storage engineers with a zero-configuration, low-overhead mechanism to definitively identify shared-tag bottlenecks. For example, userspace can trivially replicate tag starvation counters using bpftrace: # bpftrace -e 'tracepoint:block:block_rq_tag_wait { @tag_waits[cpu] = count(); }' Attaching 1 probe... ^C @tag_waits[4]: 12 @tag_waits[12]: 87 Signed-off-by: Aaron Tomlin <atomlin@atomlin.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260525005123.722277-1-atomlin@atomlin.com Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Fix this by consolidating the place at which a folio is marked uptodate in one place and having that look at what's attached to folio->private and decide how to clean it up and then set the new group. Also, the content shouldn't be flushed if group is NULL, even if a group is specified in the netfs_group parameter, as that would be the case for a new folio. A filesystem should always specify netfs_group or never specify netfs_group. The Sashiko auto-review tool noted that it was theoretically possible that the fpos >= ctx->zero_point section might leak if it modified a streaming write folio. This is unlikely, but with a network filesystem, third party changes can happen. It also pointed out that __netfs_set_group() would leak if called multiple times on the same folio from the "whole folio modify section".

2026-05-12netfs: Fix streaming write being overwrittenDavid Howells1-0/+3
In order to avoid reading whilst writing, netfslib will allow "streaming writes" in which dirty data is stored directly into folios without reading them first. Such folios are marked dirty but may not be marked uptodate. If a folio is entirely written by a streaming write, uptodate will be set, otherwise it will have a netfs_folio struct attached to ->private recording the dirty region. In the event that a partially written streaming write page is to be overwritten entirely by a single write(), netfs_perform_write() will try to copy over it, but doesn't discard the netfs_folio if it succeeds; further, it doesn't correctly handle a partial copy that overwrites some of the dirty data. Fix this by the following: (1) If the folio is successfully overwritten, free the netfs_folio struct before marking the page uptodate. (2) If the copy to the folio partially fails, but short of the dirty data, just ignore the copy. (3) If the copy partially fails and overwrites some of the dirty data, accept the copy, update the netfs_folio struct to record the new data. If the folio is now filled, free the netfs_folio and set uptodate, otherwise return a partial write.

2026-05-12netfs: Fix netfs_invalidate_folio() to clear dirty bit if all changes goneDavid Howells1-0/+4
If a streaming write is made, this will leave the relevant modified folio in a not-uptodate, but dirty state with a netfs_folio struct hung off of folio->private indicating the dirty range. Subsequently truncating the file such that the dirty data in the folio is removed, but the first part of the folio theoretically remains will cause the netfs_folio struct to be discarded... but will leave the dirty flag set. If the folio is then read via mmap(), netfs_read_folio() will see that the page is dirty and jump to netfs_read_gaps() to fill in the missing bits. netfs_read_gaps(), however, expects there to be a netfs_folio struct present and can oops because truncate removed it. Fix this by calling folio_cancel_dirty() in netfs_invalidate_folio() in the event that all the dirty data in the folio is erased (as nfs does). Also add some tracepoints to log modifications to a dirty page. This can be reproduced with something like: dd if=/dev/zero of=/xfstest.test/foo bs=1M count=1 umount /xfstest.test mount /xfstest.test xfs_io -c "w 0xbbbf 0xf96c" \ -c "truncate 0xbbbf" \ -c "mmap -r 0xb000 0x11000" \ -c "mr 0xb000 0x11000" \ /xfstest.test/foo with fscaching disabled (otherwise streaming writes are suppressed) and a change to netfs_perform_write() to disallow streaming writes if the fd is open O_RDWR: if (//(file->f_mode & FMODE_READ) || <--- comment this out netfs_is_cache_enabled(ctx)) { It should be reproducible even without this change, but if prevents the above trivial xfs_io command from reproducing it. Note that the initial dd is important: the file must start out sufficiently large that the zero-point logic doesn't just clear the gaps because it knows there's nothing in the file to read yet. Unmounting and mounting is needed to clear the pagecache (there are other ways to do that that may also work). This was initially reproduced with the generic/522 xfstest on some patches that remove the FMODE_READ restriction.

The trace event btrfs_sync_file() is called in an atomic context (all trace events are) and its call to dput(), which is needed due to the call to dget_parent(), can sleep, triggering a kernel splat. This can be reproduced by enabling the trace event and running btrfs/056 from fstests for example.

2026-05-01hrtimer: Provide hrtimer_start_range_ns_user()Thomas Gleixner1-0/+13
Calvin reported an odd NMI watchdog lockup which claims that the CPU locked up in user space. He provided a reproducer, which set's up a timerfd based timer and then rearms it in a loop with an absolute expiry time of 1ns. As the expiry time is in the past, the timer ends up as the first expiring timer in the per CPU hrtimer base and the clockevent device is programmed with the minimum delta value. If the machine is fast enough, this ends up in a endless loop of programming the delta value to the minimum value defined by the clock event device, before the timer interrupt can fire, which starves the interrupt and consequently triggers the lockup detector because the hrtimer callback of the lockup mechanism is never invoked. The clockevents code already has a last resort mechanism to prevent that, but it's sensible to catch such issues before trying to reprogram the clock event device. Provide a variant of hrtimer_start_range_ns(), which sanity checks the timer after queueing it. It does not so before because the timer might be armed and therefore needs to be dequeued. also we optimize for the latest possible point to check, so that the clock event prevention is avoided as much as possible. If the timer is already expired _before_ the clock event is reprogrammed, remove the timer from the queue and signal to the caller that the operation failed by returning false. That allows the caller to take immediate action without going through the loops and hoops of the hrtimer interrupt. The queueing code can't invoke the timer callback as the caller might hold a lock which is taken in the callback. Add a tracepoint which allows to analyze the expired at start situation.

Fix this by just discarding the packet; we will send another CHALLENGE packet and thereby elicit a further response.

If skb_unshare() fails to unshare a packet due to allocation failure in rxrpc_input_packet(), the skb pointer in the parent (rxrpc_io_thread()) will be NULL'd out. This will likely cause the call to trace_rxrpc_rx_done() to oops. Fix this by moving the unsharing down to where rxrpc_input_call_event() calls rxrpc_input_call_packet(). There are a number of places prior to that where we ignore DATA packets for a variety of reasons (such as the call already being complete) for which an unshare is then avoided. And with that, rxrpc_input_packet() doesn't need to take a pointer to the pointer to the packet, so change that to just a pointer.

Since commit 2bd82484bb4c ("xps: fix xps for stacked devices"), skb->napi_id shares storage with sender_cpu. RX tracepoints using net_dev_rx_verbose_template read skb->napi_id directly and can therefore report sender_cpu values as if they were NAPI IDs. For example, on the loopback path this can report 1 as napi_id, where 1 comes from raw_smp_processor_id() + 1 in the XPS path: # bpftrace -e 'tracepoint:net:netif_rx_entry{ print(args->napi_id); }' # taskset -c 0 ping -c 1 ::1 Report only valid NAPI IDs in these tracepoints and use 0 otherwise.
