Subject: [PATCH v10 02/35] netfs: Fix read progress reporting
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2026 15:40:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260824144130.759997-3-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260824144130.759997-1-dhowells@redhat.com>

For really big read RPC ops that span multiple folios, netfslib allows the
filesystem to give progress notifications to wake up the collector thread
to do a collection of folios that have now been fetched, even if the RPC is
still ongoing, thereby allowing the application to make progress.

This works by taking the current rreq->cleaned_to value (which indicates
which folios have been unlocked) and adding the stashed size of the next
folio to it.  cleaned_to, however, is subject to 64-bit tearing on a 32-bit
arch.

Fix this by stashing the next progress notification point as a size_t
(which won't tear) to be added to rreq->start (which won't change), with
the collector thread calculating that from cleaned_to plus the next folio
size.

Further, however, if the folios are small, the collector thread gets
constantly woken up - which has a negative performance impact on the
system.

Fix that too by setting a minimum trigger of 256KiB or the size of the
folio at the front of the queue, whichever is larger.

Also, make sure rreq->cleaned_to is initialised up front, along with
rreq->collected_to and stream->collected_to.

Fixes: e2d46f2ec332 ("netfs: Change the read result collector to only use one work item")
