<title>btrfs: allocate eb-attached btree pages as movable</title>

<id>urn:sha1:23fd95663b070cf781f37b8058a8c055f168110b</id>
<content type='text'>
Extent buffer pages allocated by alloc_extent_buffer() are attached to
btree_inode-&gt;i_mapping (the buffer_tree path), reach the LRU, and are
served by the btree_migrate_folio aops in fs/btrfs/disk-io.c. They are
migratable in practice once their owning extent buffer hits refs == 1,
which happens naturally. The buddy allocator classifies them by GFP,
however, and bare GFP_NOFS lands them in MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pageblocks.

The result: every btree_inode page we read in pins an unmovable pageblock
from the page-superblock allocator's perspective, even though the page
itself can be moved.

Have each caller of btrfs_alloc_page_array, btrfs_alloc_folio_array,
and alloc_eb_folio_array pass in the full GFP mask directly, instead
of having the functions calculate it from boolean flags.

The alloc_extent_buffer call site passes GFP_NOFS | __GFP_NOFAIL |
__GFP_MOVABLE. All other call sites pass plain GFP_NOFS.

Three categories of caller stay on bare GFP_NOFS, deliberately:

  - alloc_dummy_extent_buffer / btrfs_clone_extent_buffer: the
    resulting eb is EXTENT_BUFFER_UNMAPPED, folio-&gt;mapping stays NULL,
    the folios never enter LRU, never get migrate_folio aops. Tagging
    them __GFP_MOVABLE would violate the page allocator's migrability
    contract and they would defeat compaction in MOVABLE pageblocks
    where isolate_migratepages_block skips non-LRU non-movable_ops
    pages outright.

  - btrfs_alloc_page_array callers in fs/btrfs/raid56.c (stripe
    pages), fs/btrfs/inode.c (encoded reads), fs/btrfs/ioctl.c (io_uring
    encoded reads), fs/btrfs/relocation.c (relocation buffers): same
    contract violation. raid56 stripe_pages additionally persist in
    the stripe cache (RBIO_CACHE_SIZE=1024) well beyond a single I/O,
    so they are not transient enough to hand-wave the contract.

  - btrfs_alloc_folio_array caller in fs/btrfs/scrub.c (stripe
    folios): same -- stripe-&gt;folios[] are private buffers freed via
    folio_put in release_scrub_stripe.

This change targets the dominant fragmentation source observed on the
page-superblock series: ~28 GB of btree_inode pages parked across
many tainted superpageblocks on a 250 GB test system with btrfs root,
preventing 1 GiB hugepage allocation from those regions. With the
movable hint, those pages now land in MOVABLE pageblocks where the
existing background defragger drains them through the standard
PB_has_movable gate, no LRU-sample fallback needed.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix printf format warning for bprintf

   sunrpc uses a trace_printk() that triggers a printf warning during
   the compile. Move the __printf() attribute around for when debugging
   is not enabled the warning will go away

 - Remove redundant check for EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED in
   event_filter_write()

   The FREED flag is checked in the call to event_file_file() and then
   checked again right afterward, which is unneeded

 - Clean up event_file_file() and event_file_data() helpers

   These helper functions played a different role in the past, but now
   with eventfs, the READ_ONCE() isn't needed. Simplify the code a bit
   and also add a warning to event_file_data() if the file or its data
   is not present

 - Remove updating file-&gt;private_data in tracing open

   All access to the file private data is handled by the helper
   functions, which do not use file-&gt;private_data. Stop updating it on
   open

 - Show ENUM names in function arguments via BTF in function tracing

   When showing the function arguments when func-args option is set for
   function tracing, if one of the arguments is found to be an enum,
   show the name of the enum instead of its number

 - Add new trace_call__##name() API for tracepoints

   Tracepoints are enabled via static_branch() blocks, where when not
   enabled, there's only a nop that is in the code where the execution
   will just skip over it. When tracing is enabled, the nop is converted
   to a direct jump to the tracepoint code. Sometimes more calculations
   are required to be performed to update the parameters of the
   tracepoint. In this case, trace_##name##_enabled() is called which is
   a static_branch() that gets enabled only when the tracepoint is
   enabled. This allows the extra calculations to also be skipped by the
   nop:

	if (trace_foo_enabled()) {
		x = bar();
		trace_foo(x);
	}

   Where the x=bar() is only performed when foo is enabled. The problem
   with this approach is that there's now two static_branch() calls. One
   for checking if the tracepoint is enabled, and then again to know if
   the tracepoint should be called. The second one is redundant

   Introduce trace_call__foo() that will call the foo() tracepoint
   directly without doing a static_branch():

	if (trace_foo_enabled()) {
		x = bar();
		trace_call__foo();
	}

 - Update various locations to use the new trace_call__##name() API

 - Move snapshot code out of trace.c

   Cleaning up trace.c to not be a "dump all", move the snapshot code
   out of it and into a new trace_snapshot.c file

 - Clean up some "%*.s" to "%*s"

 - Allow boot kernel command line options to be called multiple times

   Have options like:

	ftrace_filter=foo ftrace_filter=bar ftrace_filter=zoo

   Equal to:

	ftrace_filter=foo,bar,zoo

 - Fix ipi_raise event CPU field to be a CPU field

   The ipi_raise target_cpus field is defined as a __bitmask(). There is
   now a __cpumask() field definition. Update the field to use that

 - Have hist_field_name() use a snprintf() and not a series of strcat()

   It's safer to use snprintf() that a series of strcat()

 - Fix tracepoint regfunc balancing

   A tracepoint can define a "reg" and "unreg" function that gets called
   before the tracepoint is enabled, and after it is disabled
   respectively. But on error, after the "reg" func is called and the
   tracepoint is not enabled, the "unreg" function is not called to tear
   down what the "reg" function performed

 - Fix output that shows what histograms are enabled

   Event variables are displayed incorrectly in the histogram output

   Instead of "sched.sched_wakeup.$var", it is showing
   "$sched.sched_wakeup.var" where the '$' is in the incorrect location

 - Some other simple cleanups

 - "ocfs2/dlm: fix two bugs in dlm_match_regions()" (Junrui Luo)

 - "cleanup the RAID5 XOR library" (Christoph Hellwig)

   A quite far-reaching cleanup to this code. I can't do better than to
   quote Christoph:

     "The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
      now. The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography
      and not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations
      sitting in include/asm-generic and the arch implementations
      sitting in an asm/ header in theory. The latter doesn't work for
      many cases, so architectures often build the code directly into
      the core kernel, or create another module for the architecture
      code.

      Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
      architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric
      Biggers has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After
      that it changes to better calling conventions that allow for
      smarter architecture implementations (although none is contained
      here yet), and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call
      overhead"

Commit 2932ba8d9c99 ("slab: Introduce kmalloc_obj() and family")
introduced, among many others, the kzalloc_objs() helper, which has some
benefits over kcalloc(). Namely, internal introspection of the allocated
type now becomes possible, allowing for future alignment-aware choices
to be made by the allocator and future hardening work that can be type
sensitive. Dropping 'sizeof' comes also as a nice side-effect.

Moreover, this also allows us to be in line with the recent tree-wide
migration to the kmalloc_obj() and family of helpers. See
commit 69050f8d6d07 ("treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for
non-scalar types").

We have several call sites doing the same work to calculate the size of
a bio:

	struct bio_vec *bvec;
	u32 bio_size = 0;
	int i;

	bio_for_each_bvec_all(bvec, bio, i)
		bio_size += bvec-&gt;bv_len;

We can use a common helper instead of open-coding it everywhere.

This also allows us to constify the @bio_size variables used in all the
call sites.

Use the new xor_gen helper instead of open coding the loop around
xor_blocks.  This helper is very similar to the existing run_xor helper in
btrfs, except that the destination buffer is passed explicitly.

<title>btrfs: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d7447f2dce46e1237e7908f49703803ffc0ef19f</id>
<content type='text'>
Replace trace_foo() with the new trace_call__foo() at sites already
guarded by trace_foo_enabled(), avoiding a redundant
static_branch_unlikely() re-evaluation inside the tracepoint.
trace_call__foo() calls the tracepoint callbacks directly without
utilizing the static branch again.
