These patches add local caching for network filesystems such as NFS and AFS.

The patches can be grouped as:

 (A) 01-04

     Filesystem caching, including support for AFS.

 (B) 05

     Filesystem caching support for NFS; depends on (A) and upon the superblock
     sharing patches in Trond's tree.

 (C) 06-07

     CacheFiles: cache on files backend; depends on (A).

Note to Andrew Morton: I have not included the 64-bit inode number patches, the
dentry destruction patches or the NFS superblock sharing fix patches in this
patch set.

---
Changes in [try #12]:

 (*) [PATCH] FS-Cache: Release page->private after failed readahead
     [PATCH] FS-Cache: Make kAFS use FS-Cache
     [PATCH] NFS: Use local caching

     [*] Use invalidatepage() rather than releasepage() to forcibly invalidate
     	 a page that we failed to add to the pagecache.

     [*] Make AFS and NFS's releasepage() ops return false if the page is busy
     	 interacting with the cache rather than waiting for the cache
     	 interaction to complete.  invalidatepage() still waits.

 (*) [PATCH] FS-Cache: CacheFiles: A cache that backs onto a mounted filesystem

     [*] Fix a printk format warning.

 (*) [PATCH] NFS: Use local caching

     [*] Handle upstream changes to base version of nfs_release_page().

Changes in [try #11]:

 (*) Split up of the NFS superblock sharing patches into a set of smaller
     patches and reworked some of the contents as per Trond's suggestions.

 (*) [PATCH] NFS: Fix error handling

     [*] Fix error handling in earlier patches (the earlier patches are also in
     	 Trond's NFS tree, so I haven't rolled this in for the moment).

 (*) [PATCH] NFS: Secure the roots of the NFS subtrees in a shared superblock

     [*] Initialise the security on detached NFS roots manually since they're
     	 allocated with dcache_alloc_anon() not dcache_alloc_root().

 (*) [PATCH] FS-Cache: CacheFiles: A cache that backs onto a mounted filesystem

     [*] Don't use file structs when accessing the data storage backing files.
     	 Pass NULL as the file argument to prepare_write() and commit_write()
     	 calls.

     [*] Check for a bmap() inode op to prevent NFS being used as the cache
     	 backing store (and besides, we need bmap() available anyway).

     [*] Make the calls to the statfs() superblock op supply a dentry not a
     	 vfsmount.

     [*] CONFIG_CACHEFILES_DEBUG permits _enter(), _debug() and _exit() to be
     	 enabled dynamically.

     [*] debugging macros are checked by gcc for printf format compliance even
     	 when completely disabled.

 (*) [PATCH] FS-Cache: CacheFiles: ia64: missing copy_page export

     [*] Export copy_page() on IA-64 as we need that.

 (*) [PATCH] AUTOFS: Make sure all dentries refs are released before calling kill_anon_super()

     [*] Make sure autofs4 releases all its retained dentries in its kill_sb()
     	 op before calling kill_anon_super() rather than in the put_super() op.
     	 This prevents the next patch from oopsing it.

 (*) [PATCH] VFS: Destroy the dentries contributed by a superblock on unmounting

     [*] Optimise the destruction of the dentries attached to a superblock
     	 during unmounting.

Changes in [try #10]:

 (*) [PATCH] NFS: Permit filesystem to perform statfs with a known root dentry

     [*] Pass a dentry rather than a vfsmount to the statfs() op as the key by
     	 which to determine the filesystem.

 (*) [PATCH] NFS: Share NFS superblocks per-protocol per-server per-FSID

     [*] nfs4_pathname_string() needed an extra const.

 (*) [PATCH] FS-Cache: Release page->private in failed readahead

     [*] The comment header on the helper function is much expanded.  This
     	 states why there's a need to call the releasepage() op in the event of
     	 an error.

     [*] BUG() if the page is already locked when we try and lock it.

     [*] Don't set the page mapping pointer until we've locked the page.

     [*] The page is unlocked after try_to_release_page() is called.

 (*) The release-page patch now comes before the fscache-afs patch as well as
     the fscache-nfs patch.

Changes in [try #9]:

 (*) [PATCH] NFS: Permit filesystem to perform statfs with a known root dentry

     [*] Inclusions of linux/mount.h have been added where necessary to make
       	 allyesconfig build successfully.

 (*) [PATCH] NFS: Share NFS superblocks per-protocol per-server per-FSID

     [*] The exports from fs/namespace.c and fs/namei.c are no longer required.

 (*) [PATCH] FS-Cache: Release page->private in failed readahead

     [*] The try_to_release_page() is called instead of calling the
     	 releasepage() op directly.

     [*] The page is locked before try_to_release_page() is called.

     [*] The call to try_to_release_page() and page_cache_release() have been
     	 abstracted out into a helper function as this bit of code occurs
     	 twice..

In response to those who've asked, there are at least three reasons for
implementing superblock sharing:

 (1) As I understand what I've been told, NFSv4 requires a 1:1 mapping between
     server files and client files.  I suspect this has to do with the
     management of leases.

 (2) We can reduce the resource consumption on NFSv2 and NFSv3 clients as well
     as on NFSv4 clients by sharing superblocks that cover overlapping segments
     of the file space.

     Consider a machine that's used by a lot of people at the same time, each
     of whom has an automounted NFS homedir off of the same server - and in
     fact off of the same disk on the that server.  Currently, with Linus's
     tree, each one will get a separate superblock to represent them; with
     Trond's tree, each one will still get a separate superblock unless they
     share the same root filehandle; and with my patches, they'll get the same
     superblock.

     If two homedirs have a hard link between them (unlikely, I know, but by no
     means impossible, and probably more likely with, say, data such as NFS
     mounted git repositories), then you have the possibility of aliasing.
     This means that you can have two or more inodes in core that refer to the
     same server object, and each of these inodes can have pages that refer to
     the same remote pages on the server - aliasing again.  You _have_ to have
     two inodes because they're covered by separate superblocks.

     Aliasing is bad, generally, because you end up using more storage than
     you need to (pagecache and inode cache in this case), and you have the
     problem of keeping them in sync.  It's also twice as hard to keep two
     inodes up to date when they change on the server as to keep one up to
     date.

     If you can use the same superblock where possible, then you can cut out
     aliasing on that client since you can share dentries that have the same
     file handle (hard links or subtrees).

     Part of the problem with NFSv2 and NFSv3 is that you invoke mountd to get
     the filehandle to a subtree, but you may not be able to work out how two
     different subtrees relate.  The getsb patch permits the superblock to
     have more than one root, which allows us to defer this problem until we
     see the root of one subtree cropping up in another subtree - at which
     point we can splice the former into the latter.

 (3) In my local file caching patches (FS-Cache), I have two reasons for
     wanting this:

     (a) Unique keys.  I need a unique key to find an object in the cache.  If
     	 we can get inode aliases, then I end up with several inodes referring
     	 to the same cache object.  This also means that I have to use a fair
     	 bit of extra memory to keep track of the multiple cookie mappings in
     	 FS-Cache, and have to compare keys a lot to find duplicate mappings.

	 If I can assume that the _netfs_ will manage the 1:1 mapping, I can
	 use a lot less memory and save some processing capacity also.

	 I don't want to invent random keys to differentiate aliased
	 superblocks or inodes as that destroys the persistence capabilities
	 of the cache across power failures and reboots.

     (b) Callbacks.  I want a callback that the netfs passes to FS-Cache to
     	 permit the cache to update the metadata in the cache from netfs
     	 metadata at convenient times.  However, if there's more than one
     	 inode alias in core, which one should the cache use?

AFS doesn't have anything like these problems because mounts are always made
from the root of a volume, and AFS was designed with local caching in mind.

The getsb and statfs patches are a consequence of NFS being permitted to mount
arbitrary subtrees from the server.

The attached patch provides a filesystem-specific page bit that a filesystem
can synchronise upon.  This can be used, for example, by a netfs to synchronise
with CacheFS writing its pages to disk.

The PG_checked bit is replaced with PG_fs_misc, and various operations are
provided based upon that.  The *PageChecked() macros have also been replaced.

The attached patch adds a generic intermediary (FS-Cache) by which filesystems
may call on local caching capabilities, and by which local caching backends may

The patch also documents the netfs interface and the cache backend
interface provided by the facility.


There are a number of reasons why I'm not using i_mapping to do this.
These have been discussed a lot on the LKML and CacheFS mailing lists,
but to summarise the basics:

 (1) Most filesystems don't do hole reportage.  Holes in files are treated as
     blocks of zeros and can't be distinguished otherwise, making it difficult
     to distinguish blocks that have been read from the network and cached from
     those that haven't.

 (2) The backing inode must be fully populated before being exposed to
     userspace through the main inode because the VM/VFS goes directly to the
     backing inode and does not interrogate the front inode on VM ops.

     Therefore:

     (a) The backing inode must fit entirely within the cache.

     (b) All backed files currently open must fit entirely within the cache at
     	 the same time.

     (c) A working set of files in total larger than the cache may not be
     	 cached.

     (d) A file may not grow larger than the available space in the cache.

     (e) A file that's open and cached, and remotely grows larger than the
     	 cache is potentially stuffed.

 (3) Writes go to the backing filesystem, and can only be transferred to the
     network when the file is closed.

 (4) There's no record of what changes have been made, so the whole file must
     be written back.

 (5) The pages belong to the backing filesystem, and all metadata associated
     with that page are relevant only to the backing filesystem, and not
     anything stacked atop it.


The attached patch adds a generic core to which both networking filesystems and
caches may bind.  It transfers requests from networking filesystems to
appropriate caches if possible, or else gracefully denies them.

If this facility is disabled in the kernel configuration, then all its
operations will be trivially reducible to nothing by the compiler.

FS-Cache provides the following facilities:

 (1) Caches can be added / removed at any time, even whilst in use.

 (2) Adds a facility by which tags can be used to refer to caches, even if
     they're not mounted yet.

 (3) More than one cache can be used at once.  Caches can be selected
     explicitly by use of tags.

 (4) The netfs is provided with an interface that allows either party to
     withdraw caching facilities from a file (required for (1)).

 (5) A netfs may annotate cache objects that belongs to it.

 (6) Cache objects can be pinned and reservations made.

 (7) The interface to the netfs returns as few errors as possible, preferring
     rather to let the netfs remain oblivious.

 (8) Cookies are used to represent indices, files and other objects to the
     netfs.  The simplest cookie is just a NULL pointer - indicating nothing
     cached there.

 (9) The netfs is allowed to propose - dynamically - any index hierarchy it
     desires, though it must be aware that the index search function is
     recursive, stack space is limited, and indices can only be children of
     indices.

(10) Indices can be used to group files together to reduce key size and to make
     group invalidation easier.  The use of indices may make lookup quicker,
     but that's cache dependent.

(11) Data I/O is effectively done directly to and from the netfs's pages.  The
     netfs indicates that page A is at index B of the data-file represented by
     cookie C, and that it should be read or written.  The cache backend may or
     may not start I/O on that page, but if it does, a netfs callback will be
     invoked to indicate completion.  The I/O may be either synchronous or
     asynchronous.

(12) Cookies can be "retired" upon release.  At this point FS-Cache will mark
     them as obsolete and the index hierarchy rooted at that point will get
     recycled.

(13) The netfs provides a "match" function for index searches.  In addition to
     saying whether a match was made or not, this can also specify that an
     entry should be updated or deleted.


FS-Cache maintains a virtual indexing tree in which all indices, files, objects
and pages are kept.  Bits of this tree may actually reside in one or more
caches.

In the example above, you can see two netfs's being backed: NFS and AFS.  These
have different index hierarchies:

 (*) The NFS primary index will probably contain per-server indices.  Each
     server index is indexed by NFS file handles to get data file objects.
     Each data file objects can have an array of pages, but may also have
     further child objects, such as extended attributes and directory entries.
     Extended attribute objects themselves have page-array contents.

 (*) The AFS primary index contains per-cell indices.  Each cell index contains
     per-logical-volume indices.  Each of volume index contains up to three
     indices for the read-write, read-only and backup mirrors of those volumes.
     Each of these contains vnode data file objects, each of which contains an
     array of pages.

The very top index is the FS-Cache master index in which individual netfs's
have entries.

Any index object may reside in more than one cache, provided it only has index
children.  Any index with non-index object children will be assumed to only
reside in one cache.

Further changes [try #11] that have been made:

 (*) FSCACHE_NEGATIVE_COOKIE has been removed.  NULL should be used instead.

 (*) Add read/write context maintenance for in case the cache operation fails.

+			  ==========================
+			  FS-CACHE CACHE BACKEND API
+			  ==========================
+
+The FS-Cache system provides an API by which actual caches can be supplied to
+FS-Cache for it to then serve out to network filesystems and other interested
+parties.
+
+This API is declared in <linux/fscache-cache.h>.
+
+
+====================================
+INITIALISING AND REGISTERING A CACHE
+====================================
+
+To start off, a cache definition must be initialised and registered for each
+cache the backend wants to make available.  For instance, CacheFS does this in
+the fill_super() operation on mounting.
+
+The cache definition (struct fscache_cache) should be initialised by calling:
+
+	void fscache_init_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache,
+				struct fscache_cache_ops *ops,
+				const char *idfmt,
+				...)
+
+Where:
+
+ (*) "cache" is a pointer to the cache definition;
+
+ (*) "ops" is a pointer to the table of operations that the backend supports on
+     this cache;
+
+ (*) and a format and printf-style arguments for constructing a label for the
+     cache.
+
+
+The cache should then be registered with FS-Cache by passing a pointer to the
+previously initialised cache definition to:
+
+	int fscache_add_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache,
+			      struct fscache_object *fsdef,
+			      const char *tagname);
+
+Two extra arguments should also be supplied:
+
+ (*) "fsdef" which should point to the object representation for the FS-Cache
+     master index in this cache.  Netfs primary index entries will be created
+     here.
+
+ (*) "tagname" which, if given, should be a text string naming this cache.  If
+     this is NULL, the identifier will be used instead.  For CacheFS, the
+     identifier is set to name the underlying block device and the tag can be
+     supplied by mount.
+
+This function may return -ENOMEM if it ran out of memory or -EEXIST if the tag
+is already in use.  0 will be returned on success.
+
+
+=====================
+UNREGISTERING A CACHE
+=====================
+
+A cache can be withdrawn from the system by calling this function with a
+pointer to the cache definition:
+
+	void fscache_withdraw_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache)
+
+In CacheFS's case, this is called by put_super().
+
+
+==================
+FS-CACHE UTILITIES
+==================
+
+FS-Cache provides some utilities that a cache backend may make use of:
+
+ (*) Find the parent of an object:
+
+	struct fscache_object *
+	fscache_find_parent_object(struct fscache_object *object)
+
+     This allows a backend to find the logical parent of an index or data file
+     in the cache hierarchy.
+
+ (*) Note occurrence of an I/O error in a cache:
+
+	void fscache_io_error(struct fscache_cache *cache)
+
+     This tells FS-Cache that an I/O error occurred in the cache.  After this
+     has been called, only resource dissociation operations (object and page
+     release) will be passed from the netfs to the cache backend for the
+     specified cache.
+
+     This does not actually withdraw the cache.  That must be done separately.
+
+ (*) Get an extra reference to a read or write context:
+
+	void *fscache_get_context(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, void *context)
+
+     and release a reference:
+
+	void *fscache_put_context(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, void *context)
+
+     These should be used to maintain the presence of the read or write context
+     passed to the cache read/write functions.  This context must then be
+     passed to the I/O completion function.
+
+
+========================
+RELEVANT DATA STRUCTURES
+========================
+
+ (*) Index/Data file FS-Cache representation cookie:
+
+	struct fscache_cookie {
+		struct fscache_object_def	*def;
+		struct fscache_netfs		*netfs;
+		void				*netfs_data;
+		...
+	};
+
+     The fields that might be of use to the backend describe the object
+     definition, the netfs definition and the netfs's data for this cookie.
+     The object definition contain functions supplied by the netfs for loading
+     and matching index entries; these are required to provide some of the
+     cache operations.
+
+ (*) In-cache object representation:
+
+	struct fscache_object {
+		struct fscache_cache		*cache;
+		struct fscache_cookie		*cookie;
+		unsigned long			flags;
+	#define FSCACHE_OBJECT_RECYCLING	1
+		...
+	};
+
+     Structures of this type should be allocated by the cache backend and
+     passed to FS-Cache when requested by the appropriate cache operation.  In
+     the case of CacheFS, they're embedded in CacheFS's internal object
+     structures.
+
+     Each object contains a pointer to the cookie that represents the object it
+     is backing.  It also contains a flag that indicates whether the object is
+     being retired when put_object() is called.  This should be initialised by
+     calling fscache_object_init(object).
+
+
+================
+CACHE OPERATIONS
+================
+
+The cache backend provides FS-Cache with a table of operations that can be
+performed on the denizens of the cache.  These are held in a structure of type:
+
+	struct fscache_cache_ops
+
+ (*) Name of cache provider [mandatory]:
+
+	const char *name
+
+     This isn't strictly an operation, but should be pointed at a string naming
+     the backend.
+
+ (*) Object lookup [mandatory]:
+
+	struct fscache_object *(*lookup_object)(struct fscache_cache *cache,
+						struct fscache_object *parent,
+						struct fscache_cookie *cookie)
+
+     This method is used to look up an object in the specified cache, given a
+     pointer to the parent object and the cookie to which the object will be
+     attached.  This should instantiate that object in the cache if it can, or
+     return -ENOBUFS or -ENOMEM if it can't.
+
+ (*) Increment object refcount [mandatory]:
+
+	struct fscache_object *(*grab_object)(struct fscache_object *object)
+
+     This method is called to increment the reference count on an object.  It
+     may fail (for instance if the cache is being withdrawn) by returning NULL.
+     It should return the object pointer if successful.
+
+ (*) Lock/Unlock object [mandatory]:
+
+	void (*lock_object)(struct fscache_object *object)
+	void (*unlock_object)(struct fscache_object *object)
+
+     These methods are used to exclusively lock an object.  It must be possible
+     to schedule with the lock held, so a spinlock isn't sufficient.
+
+ (*) Pin/Unpin object [optional]:
+
+	int (*pin_object)(struct fscache_object *object)
+	void (*unpin_object)(struct fscache_object *object)
+
+     These methods are used to pin an object into the cache.  Once pinned an
+     object cannot be reclaimed to make space.  Return -ENOSPC if there's not
+     enough space in the cache to permit this.
+
+ (*) Update object [mandatory]:
+
+	int (*update_object)(struct fscache_object *object)
+
+     This is called to update the index entry for the specified object.  The
+     new information should be in object->cookie->netfs_data.  This can be
+     obtained by calling object->cookie->def->get_aux()/get_attr().
+
+ (*) Release object reference [mandatory]:
+
+	void (*put_object)(struct fscache_object *object)
+
+     This method is used to discard a reference to an object.  The object may
+     be destroyed when all the references held by FS-Cache are released.
+
+ (*) Synchronise a cache [mandatory]:
+
+	void (*sync)(struct fscache_cache *cache)
+
+     This is called to ask the backend to synchronise a cache with its backing
+     device.
+
+ (*) Dissociate a cache [mandatory]:
+
+	void (*dissociate_pages)(struct fscache_cache *cache)
+
+     This is called to ask a cache to perform any page dissociations as part of
+     cache withdrawal.
+
+ (*) Set the data size on a cache file [mandatory]:
+
+	int (*set_i_size)(struct fscache_object *object, loff_t i_size);
+
+     This is called to indicate to the cache the maximum size a file may reach.
+     The cache may use this to reserve space on the cache.  It may also return
+     -ENOBUFS to indicate that insufficient space is available to expand the
+     metadata used to track the data.  It should return 0 if successful or
+     -ENOMEM or -EIO on error.
+
+ (*) Reserve cache space for an object's data [optional]:
+
+	int (*reserve_space)(struct fscache_object *object, loff_t size);
+
+     This is called to request that cache space be reserved to hold the data
+     for an object and the metadata used to track it.  Zero size should be
+     taken as request to cancel a reservation.
+
+     This should return 0 if successful, -ENOSPC if there isn't enough space
+     available, or -ENOMEM or -EIO on other errors.
+
+     The reservation may exceed the size of the object, thus permitting future
+     expansion.  If the amount of space consumed by an object would exceed the
+     reservation, it's permitted to refuse requests to allocate pages, but not
+     required.  An object may be pruned down to its reservation size if larger
+     than that already.
+
+ (*) Request page be read from cache [mandatory]:
+
+	int (*read_or_alloc_page)(struct fscache_object *object,
+				  struct page *page,
+				  fscache_rw_complete_t end_io_func,
+				  void *end_io_data,
+				  gfp_t gfp)
+
+     This is called to attempt to read a netfs page from the cache, or to
+     reserve a backing block if not.  FS-Cache will have done as much checking
+     as it can before calling, but most of the work belongs to the backend.
+
+     If there's no page in the cache, then -ENODATA should be returned if the
+     backend managed to reserve a backing block; -ENOBUFS, -ENOMEM or -EIO if
+     it didn't.
+
+     If there is a page in the cache, then a read operation should be queued
+     and 0 returned.  When the read finishes, end_io_func() should be called
+     with the following arguments:
+
+	(*end_io_func)(object->cookie->netfs_data,
+		       page,
+		       end_io_data,
+		       error);
+
+     The mark_pages_cached() cookie operation should be called for the page if
+     any cache metadata is retained.  This will indicate to the netfs that the
+     page needs explicit uncaching.  This operation takes a pagevec, thus
+     allowing several pages to be marked at once.
+
+ (*) Request pages be read from cache [mandatory]:
+
+	int (*read_or_alloc_pages)(struct fscache_object *object,
+				   struct address_space *mapping,
+				   struct list_head *pages,
+				   unsigned *nr_pages,
+				   fscache_rw_complete_t end_io_func,
+				   void *end_io_data,
+				   gfp_t gfp)
+
+     This is like the previous operation, except it will be handed a list of
+     pages instead of one page.  Any pages on which a read operation is started
+     must be added to the page cache for the specified mapping and also to the
+     LRU.  Such pages must also be removed from the pages list and nr_pages
+     decremented per page.
+
+     If there was an error such as -ENOMEM, then that should be returned; else
+     if one or more pages couldn't be read or allocated, then -ENOBUFS should
+     be returned; else if one or more pages couldn't be read, then -ENODATA
+     should be returned.  If all the pages are dispatched then 0 should be
+     returned.
+
+ (*) Request page be allocated in the cache [mandatory]:
+
+	int (*allocate_page)(struct fscache_object *object,
+			     struct page *page,
+			     gfp_t gfp)
+
+     This is like read_or_alloc_page(), except that it shouldn't read from the
+     cache, even if there's data there that could be retrieved.  It should,
+     however, set up any internal metadata required such that write_page() can
+     write to the cache.
+
+     If there's no backing block available, then -ENOBUFS should be returned
+     (or -ENOMEM or -EIO if there were other problems).  If a block is
+     successfully allocated, then the netfs page should be marked and 0
+     returned.
+
+ (*) Request page be written to cache [mandatory]:
+
+	int (*write_page)(struct fscache_object *object,
+			  struct page *page,
+			  fscache_rw_complete_t end_io_func,
+			  void *end_io_data,
+			  gfp_t gfp)
+
+     This is called to write from a page on which there was a previously
+     successful read_or_alloc_page() call.  FS-Cache filters out pages that
+     don't have mappings.
+
+     If there's no backing block available, then -ENOBUFS should be returned
+     (or -ENOMEM or -EIO if there were other problems).
+
+     If the write operation could be queued, then 0 should be returned.  When
+     the write completes, end_io_func() should be called with the following
+     arguments:
+
+	(*end_io_func)(object->cookie->netfs_data,
+		       page,
+		       end_io_data,
+		       error);
+
+ (*) Discard retained per-page metadata [mandatory]:
+
+	void (*uncache_pages)(struct fscache_object *object,
+			      struct pagevec *pagevec)
+
+     This is called when one or more netfs pages are being evicted from the
+     pagecache.  The cache backend should tear down any internal representation
+     or tracking it maintains.

+			  General Filesystem Caching
+			  ==========================
+
+========
+OVERVIEW
+========
+
+This facility is a general purpose cache for network filesystems, though it
+could be used for caching other things such as ISO9660 filesystems too.
+
+FS-Cache mediates between cache backends (such as CacheFS) and network
+filesystems:

+	|         |                        +--------------+
+	+---------+
+
+
+FS-Cache does not follow the idea of completely loading every netfs file
+opened in its entirety into a cache before permitting it to be accessed and
+then serving the pages out of that cache rather than the netfs inode because:
+
+ (1) It must be practical to operate without a cache.
+
+ (2) The size of any accessible file must not be limited to the size of the
+     cache.
+
+ (3) The combined size of all opened files (this includes mapped libraries)
+     must not be limited to the size of the cache.
+
+ (4) The user should not be forced to download an entire file just to do a
+     one-off access of a small portion of it (such as might be done with the
+     "file" program).
+
+It instead serves the cache out in PAGE_SIZE chunks as and when requested by
+the netfs('s) using it.
+
+
+FS-Cache provides the following facilities:
+
+ (1) More than one cache can be used at once.  Caches can be selected
+     explicitly by use of tags.
+
+ (2) Caches can be added / removed at any time.
+
+ (3) The netfs is provided with an interface that allows either party to
+     withdraw caching facilities from a file (required for (2)).
+
+ (4) The interface to the netfs returns as few errors as possible, preferring
+     rather to let the netfs remain oblivious.
+
+ (5) Cookies are used to represent indices, files and other objects to the
+     netfs.  The simplest cookie is just a NULL pointer - indicating nothing
+     cached there.
+
+ (6) The netfs is allowed to propose - dynamically - any index hierarchy it
+     desires, though it must be aware that the index search function is
+     recursive, stack space is limited, and indices can only be children of
+     indices.
+
+ (7) Data I/O is done direct to and from the netfs's pages.  The netfs
+     indicates that page A is at index B of the data-file represented by cookie
+     C, and that it should be read or written.  The cache backend may or may
+     not start I/O on that page, but if it does, a netfs callback will be
+     invoked to indicate completion.  The I/O may be either synchronous or
+     asynchronous.
+
+ (8) Cookies can be "retired" upon release.  At this point FS-Cache will mark
+     them as obsolete and the index hierarchy rooted at that point will get
+     recycled.
+
+ (9) The netfs provides a "match" function for index searches.  In addition to
+     saying whether a match was made or not, this can also specify that an
+     entry should be updated or deleted.
+
+
+FS-Cache maintains a virtual indexing tree in which all indices, files, objects
+and pages are kept.  Bits of this tree may actually reside in one or more
+caches.

+
+In the example above, you can see two netfs's being backed: NFS and AFS.  These
+have different index hierarchies:
+
+ (*) The NFS primary index contains per-server indices.  Each server index is
+     indexed by NFS file handles to get data file objects.  Each data file
+     objects can have an array of pages, but may also have further child
+     objects, such as extended attributes and directory entries.  Extended
+     attribute objects themselves have page-array contents.
+
+ (*) The AFS primary index contains per-cell indices.  Each cell index contains
+     per-logical-volume indices.  Each of volume index contains up to three
+     indices for the read-write, read-only and backup mirrors of those volumes.
+     Each of these contains vnode data file objects, each of which contains an
+     array of pages.
+
+The very top index is the FS-Cache master index in which individual netfs's
+have entries.
+
+Any index object may reside in more than one cache, provided it only has index
+children.  Any index with non-index object children will be assumed to only
+reside in one cache.

+			===============================
+			FS-CACHE NETWORK FILESYSTEM API
+			===============================
+
+There's an API by which a network filesystem can make use of the FS-Cache
+facilities.  This is based around a number of principles:
+
+ (1) Caches can store a number of different object types.  There are two main
+     object types: indices and files.  The first is a special type used by
+     FS-Cache to make finding objects faster and to make retiring of groups of
+     objects easier.
+
+ (2) Every index, file or other object is represented by a cookie.  This cookie
+     may or may not have anything associated with it, but the netfs doesn't
+     need to care.
+
+ (3) Barring the top-level index (one entry per cached netfs), the index
+     hierarchy for each netfs is structured according the whim of the netfs.
+
+This API is declared in <linux/fscache.h>.
+
+This document contains the following sections:
+
+	 (1) Network filesystem definition
+	 (2) Index definition
+	 (3) Object definition
+	 (4) Network filesystem (un)registration
+	 (5) Cache tag lookup
+	 (6) Index registration
+	 (7) Data file registration
+	 (8) Miscellaneous object registration
+	 (9) Setting the data file size
+	(10) Page alloc/read/write
+	(11) Page uncaching
+	(12) Index and data file update
+	(13) Miscellaneous cookie operations
+	(14) Cookie unregistration
+	(15) Index and data file invalidation
+
+
+=============================
+NETWORK FILESYSTEM DEFINITION
+=============================
+
+FS-Cache needs a description of the network filesystem.  This is specified
+using a record of the following structure:
+
+	struct fscache_netfs {
+		uint32_t			version;
+		const char			*name;
+		struct fscache_netfs_operations	*ops;
+		struct fscache_cookie		*primary_index;
+		...
+	};
+
+This first three fields should be filled in before registration, and the fourth
+will be filled in by the registration function; any other fields should just be
+ignored and are for internal use only.
+
+The fields are:
+
+ (1) The name of the netfs (used as the key in the toplevel index).
+
+ (2) The version of the netfs (if the name matches but the version doesn't, the
+     entire in-cache hierarchy for this netfs will be scrapped and begun
+     afresh).
+
+ (3) The operations table is defined as follows:
+
+	struct fscache_netfs_operations {
+	};
+
+     Currently there aren't any functions here.
+
+ (4) The cookie representing the primary index will be allocated according to
+     another parameter passed into the registration function.
+
+For example, kAFS (linux/fs/afs/) uses the following definitions to describe
+itself:
+
+	static struct fscache_netfs_operations afs_cache_ops = {
+	};
+
+	struct fscache_netfs afs_cache_netfs = {
+		.version	= 0,
+		.name		= "afs",
+		.ops		= &afs_cache_ops,
+	};
+
+
+================
+INDEX DEFINITION
+================
+
+Indices are used for two purposes:
+
+ (1) To aid the finding of a file based on a series of keys (such as AFS's
+     "cell", "volume ID", "vnode ID").
+
+ (2) To make it easier to discard a subset of all the files cached based around
+     a particular key - for instance to mirror the removal of an AFS volume.
+
+However, since it's unlikely that any two netfs's are going to want to define
+their index hierarchies in quite the same way, FS-Cache tries to impose as few
+restraints as possible on how an index is structured and where it is placed in
+the tree.  The netfs can even mix indices and data files at the same level, but
+it's not recommended.
+
+Each index entry consists of a key of indeterminate length plus some auxilliary
+data, also of indeterminate length.
+
+There are some limits on indices:
+
+ (1) Any index containing non-index objects should be restricted to a single
+     cache.  Any such objects created within an index will be created in the
+     first cache only.  The cache in which an index is created can be
+     controlled by cache tags (see below).
+
+ (2) The entry data must be atomically journallable, so it is limited to about
+     400 bytes at present.  At least 400 bytes will be available.
+
+ (3) The depth of the index tree should be judged with care as the search
+     function is recursive.  Too many layers will run the kernel out of stack.
+
+
+=================
+OBJECT DEFINITION
+=================
+
+To define an object, a structure of the following type should be filled out:
+
+	struct fscache_object_def
+	{
+		uint8_t name[16];
+		uint8_t type;
+
+		struct fscache_cache_tag *(*select_cache)(
+			const void *parent_netfs_data,
+			const void *cookie_netfs_data);
+
+		uint16_t (*get_key)(const void *cookie_netfs_data,
+				    void *buffer,
+				    uint16_t bufmax);
+
+		void (*get_attr)(const void *cookie_netfs_data,
+				 uint64_t *size);
+
+		uint16_t (*get_aux)(const void *cookie_netfs_data,
+				    void *buffer,
+				    uint16_t bufmax);
+
+		fscache_checkaux_t (*check_aux)(void *cookie_netfs_data,
+						const void *data,
+						uint16_t datalen);
+
+		void (*get_context)(void *cookie_netfs_data, void *context);
+
+		void (*put_context)(void *cookie_netfs_data, void *context);
+
+		void (*mark_pages_cached)(void *cookie_netfs_data,
+					  struct address_space *mapping,
+					  struct pagevec *cached_pvec);
+
+		void (*now_uncached)(void *cookie_netfs_data);
+	};
+
+This has the following fields:
+
+ (1) The type of the object [mandatory].
+
+     This is one of the following values:
+
+	(*) FSCACHE_COOKIE_TYPE_INDEX
+
+	    This defines an index, which is a special FS-Cache type.
+
+	(*) FSCACHE_COOKIE_TYPE_DATAFILE
+
+	    This defines an ordinary data file.
+
+	(*) Any other value between 2 and 255
+
+	    This defines an extraordinary object such as an XATTR.
+
+ (2) The name of the object type (NUL terminated unless all 16 chars are used)
+     [optional].
+
+ (3) A function to select the cache in which to store an index [optional].
+
+     This function is invoked when an index needs to be instantiated in a cache
+     during the instantiation of a non-index object.  Only the immediate index
+     parent for the non-index object will be queried.  Any indices above that
+     in the hierarchy may be stored in multiple caches.  This function does not
+     need to be supplied for any non-index object or any index that will only
+     have index children.
+
+     If this function is not supplied or if it returns NULL then the first
+     cache in the parent's list will be chosed, or failing that, the first
+     cache in the master list.
+
+ (4) A function to retrieve an object's key from the netfs [mandatory].
+
+     This function will be called with the netfs data that was passed to the
+     cookie acquisition function and the maximum length of key data that it may
+     provide.  It should write the required key data into the given buffer and
+     return the quantity it wrote.
+
+ (5) A function to retrieve attribute data from the netfs [optional].
+
+     This function will be called with the netfs data that was passed to the
+     cookie acquisition function.  It should return the size of the file if
+     this is a data file.  The size may be used to govern how much cache must
+     be reserved for this file in the cache.
+
+     If the function is absent, a file size of 0 is assumed.
+
+ (6) A function to retrieve auxilliary data from the netfs [optional].
+
+     This function will be called with the netfs data that was passed to the
+     cookie acquisition function and the maximum length of auxilliary data that
+     it may provide.  It should write the auxilliary data into the given buffer
+     and return the quantity it wrote.
+
+     If this function is absent, the auxilliary data length will be set to 0.
+
+     The length of the auxilliary data buffer may be dependent on the key
+     length.  A netfs mustn't rely on being able to provide more than 400 bytes
+     for both.
+
+ (7) A function to check the auxilliary data [optional].
+
+     This function will be called to check that a match found in the cache for
+     this object is valid.  For instance with AFS it could check the auxilliary
+     data against the data version number returned by the server to determine
+     whether the index entry in a cache is still valid.
+
+     If this function is absent, it will be assumed that matching objects in a
+     cache are always valid.
+
+     If present, the function should return one of the following values:
+
+	(*) FSCACHE_CHECKAUX_OKAY		- the entry is okay as is
+	(*) FSCACHE_CHECKAUX_NEEDS_UPDATE	- the entry requires update
+	(*) FSCACHE_CHECKAUX_OBSOLETE		- the entry should be deleted
+
+     This function can also be used to extract data from the auxilliary data in
+     the cache and copy it into the netfs's structures.
+
+ (8) A pair of functions to manage contexts for the completion callback
+     [optional].
+
+     The cache read/write functions are passed a context which is then passed
+     to the I/O completion callback function.  To ensure this context remains
+     valid until after the I/O completion is called, two functions may be
+     provided: one to get an extra reference on the context, and one to drop a
+     reference to it.
+
+     If the context is not used or is a type of object that won't go out of
+     scope, then these functions are not required.  These functions are not
+     required for indices as indices may not contain data.  These functions may
+     be called in interrupt context and so may not sleep.
+
+ (9) A function to mark a page as retaining cache metadata [mandatory].
+
+     This is called by the cache to indicate that it is retaining in-memory
+     information for this page and that the netfs should uncache the page when
+     it has finished.  This does not indicate whether there's data on the disk
+     or not.  Note that several pages at once may be presented for marking.
+
+     kAFS and NFS use the PG_private bit on the page structure for this, but
+     that may not be appropriate in all cases.
+
+     This function is not required for indices as they're not permitted data.
+
+(10) A function to unmark all the pages retaining cache metadata [mandatory].
+
+     This is called by FS-Cache to indicate that a backing store is being
+     unbound from a cookie and that all the marks on the pages should be
+     cleared to prevent confusion.  Note that the cache will have torn down all
+     its tracking information so that the pages don't need to be explicitly
+     uncached.
+
+     This function is not required for indices as they're not permitted data.
+
+
+===================================
+NETWORK FILESYSTEM (UN)REGISTRATION
+===================================
+
+The first step is to declare the network filesystem to the cache.  This also
+involves specifying the layout of the primary index (for AFS, this would be the
+"cell" level).
+
+The registration function is:
+
+	int fscache_register_netfs(struct fscache_netfs *netfs);
+
+It just takes a pointer to the netfs definition.  It returns 0 or an error as
+appropriate.
+
+For kAFS, registration is done as follows:
+
+	ret = fscache_register_netfs(&afs_cache_netfs);
+
+The last step is, of course, unregistration:
+
+	void fscache_unregister_netfs(struct fscache_netfs *netfs);
+
+
+================
+CACHE TAG LOOKUP
+================
+
+FS-Cache permits the use of more than one cache.  To permit particular index
+subtrees to be bound to particular caches, the second step is to look up cache
+representation tags.  This step is optional; it can be left entirely up to
+FS-Cache as to which cache should be used.  The problem with doing that is that
+FS-Cache will always pick the first cache that was registered.
+
+To get the representation for a named tag:
+
+	struct fscache_cache_tag *fscache_lookup_cache_tag(const char *name);
+
+This takes a text string as the name and returns a representation of a tag.  It
+will never return an error.  It may return a dummy tag, however, if it runs out
+of memory; this will inhibit caching with this tag.
+
+Any representation so obtained must be released by passing it to this function:
+
+	void fscache_release_cache_tag(struct fscache_cache_tag *tag);
+
+The tag will be retrieved by FS-Cache when it calls the object definition
+operation select_cache().
+
+
+==================
+INDEX REGISTRATION
+==================
+
+The third step is to inform FS-Cache about part of an index hierarchy that can
+be used to locate files.  This is done by requesting a cookie for each index in
+the path to the file:
+
+	struct fscache_cookie *
+	fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *parent,
+			       struct fscache_object_def *def,
+			       void *netfs_data);
+
+This function creates an index entry in the index represented by parent,
+filling in the index entry by calling the operations pointed to by def.
+
+Note that this function never returns an error - all errors are handled
+internally.  It may also return NULL to indicate no cookie.  It is quite
+acceptable to pass this token back to this function as the parent to another
+acquisition (or even to the relinquish cookie, read page and write page
+functions - see below).
+
+Note also that no indices are actually created in a cache until a non-index
+object needs to be created somewhere down the hierarchy.  Furthermore, an index
+may be created in several different caches independently at different times.
+This is all handled transparently, and the netfs doesn't see any of it.
+
+For example, with AFS, a cell would be added to the primary index.  This index
+entry would have a dependent inode containing a volume location index for the
+volume mappings within this cell:
+
+	cell->cache =
+		fscache_acquire_cookie(afs_cache_netfs.primary_index,
+				       &afs_cell_cache_index_def,
+				       cell);
+
+Then when a volume location was accessed, it would be entered into the cell's
+index and an inode would be allocated that acts as a volume type and hash chain
+combination:
+
+	vlocation->cache =
+		fscache_acquire_cookie(cell->cache,
+				       &afs_vlocation_cache_index_def,
+				       vlocation);
+
+And then a particular flavour of volume (R/O for example) could be added to
+that index, creating another index for vnodes (AFS inode equivalents):
+
+	volume->cache =
+		fscache_acquire_cookie(vlocation->cache,
+				       &afs_volume_cache_index_def,
+				       volume);
+
+
+======================
+DATA FILE REGISTRATION
+======================
+
+The fourth step is to request a data file be created in the cache.  This is
+identical to index cookie acquisition.  The only difference is that the type in
+the object definition should be something other than index type.
+
+	vnode->cache =
+		fscache_acquire_cookie(volume->cache,
+				       &afs_vnode_cache_object_def,
+				       vnode);
+
+
+=================================
+MISCELLANEOUS OBJECT REGISTRATION
+=================================
+
+An optional step is to request an object of miscellaneous type be created in
+the cache.  This is almost identical to index cookie acquisition.  The only
+difference is that the type in the object definition should be something other
+than index type.  Whilst the parent object could be an index, it's more likely
+it would be some other type of object such as a data file.
+
+	xattr->cache =
+		fscache_acquire_cookie(vnode->cache,
+				       &afs_xattr_cache_object_def,
+				       xattr);
+
+Miscellaneous objects might be used to store extended attributes or directory
+entries for example.
+
+
+==========================
+SETTING THE DATA FILE SIZE
+==========================
+
+The fifth step is to set the size of the file.  This doesn't automatically
+reserve any space in the cache, but permits the cache to adjust its metadata
+for data tracking appropriately:
+
+	int fscache_set_i_size(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, loff_t i_size);
+
+The cache will return -ENOBUFS if there is no backing cache or if there is no
+space to allocate any extra metadata required in the cache.
+
+Note that attempts to read or write data pages in the cache over this size may
+be rebuffed with -ENOBUFS.
+
+
+=====================
+PAGE READ/ALLOC/WRITE
+=====================
+
+And the sixth step is to store and retrieve pages in the cache.  There are
+three functions that are used to do this.
+
+Note:
+
+ (1) A page should not be re-read or re-allocated without uncaching it first.
+
+ (2) A read or allocated page must be uncached when the netfs page is released
+     from the pagecache.
+
+ (3) A page should only be written to the cache if previous read or allocated.
+
+This permits the cache to maintain its page tracking in proper order.
+
+
+PAGE READ
+---------
+
+Firstly, the netfs should ask FS-Cache to examine the caches and read the
+contents cached for a particular page of a particular file if present, or else
+allocate space to store the contents if not:
+
+	typedef
+	void (*fscache_rw_complete_t)(struct page *page,
+				      void *context,
+				      int error);
+
+	int fscache_read_or_alloc_page(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
+				       struct page *page,
+				       fscache_rw_complete_t end_io_func,
+				       void *end_io_data,
+				       gfp_t gfp);
+
+The cookie argument must specify a cookie for an object that isn't an index,
+the page specified will have the data loaded into it (and is also used to
+specify the page number), and the gfp argument is used to control how any
+memory allocations made are satisfied.
+
+If the cookie indicates the inode is not cached:
+
+ (1) The function will return -ENOBUFS.
+
+Else if there's a copy of the page resident in the cache:
+
+ (1) The mark_pages_cached() cookie operation will be called on that page.
+
+ (2) The function will submit a request to read the data from the cache's
+     backing device directly into the page specified.
+
+ (3) The function will return 0.
+
+ (4) When the read is complete, end_io_func() will be invoked with:
+
+     (*) The netfs data supplied when the cookie was created.
+
+     (*) The page descriptor.
+
+     (*) The context argument passed to the above function.  This will be
+     	 maintained with the get_context/put_context functions mentioned above.
+
+     (*) An argument that's 0 on success or negative for an error code.
+
+     If an error occurs, it should be assumed that the page contains no usable
+     data.
+
+     end_io_func() will be called in process context if the read is results in
+     an error, but it might be called in interrupt context if the read is
+     successful.
+
+Otherwise, if there's not a copy available in cache, but the cache may be able
+to store the page:
+
+ (1) The mark_pages_cached() cookie operation will be called on that page.
+
+ (2) A block may be reserved in the cache and attached to the object at the
+     appropriate place.
+
+ (3) The function will return -ENODATA.
+
+This function may also return -ENOMEM or -EINTR, in which case it won't have
+read any data from the cache.
+
+
+PAGE ALLOCATE
+-------------
+
+Alternatively, if there's not expected to be any data in the cache for a page
+because the file has been extended, a block can simply be allocated instead:
+
+	int fscache_alloc_page(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
+			       struct page *page,
+			       gfp_t gfp);
+
+This is similar to the fscache_read_or_alloc_page() function, except that it
+never reads from the cache.  It will return 0 if a block has been allocated,
+rather than -ENODATA as the other would.  One or the other must be performed
+before writing to the cache.
+
+The mark_pages_cached() cookie operation will be called on the page if
+successful.
+
+
+PAGE WRITE
+----------
+
+Secondly, if the netfs changes the contents of the page (either due to an
+initial download or if a user performs a write), then the page should be
+written back to the cache:
+
+	int fscache_write_page(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
+			       struct page *page,
+			       fscache_rw_complete_t end_io_func,
+			       void *context,
+			       gfp_t gfp);
+
+The cookie argument must specify a data file cookie, the page specified should
+contain the data to be written (and is also used to specify the page number),
+and the gfp argument is used to control how any memory allocations made are
+satisfied.
+
+The page must have first been read or allocated successfully and must not have
+been uncached before writing is performed.
+
+If the cookie indicates the inode is not cached then:
+
+ (1) The function will return -ENOBUFS.
+
+Else if space can be allocated in the cache to hold this page:
+
+ (1) The function will submit a request to write the data to cache's backing
+     device directly from the page specified.
+
+ (2) The function will return 0.
+
+ (3) When the write is complete the end_io_func() will be invoked with:
+
+     (*) The netfs data supplied when the cookie was created.
+
+     (*) The page descriptor.
+
+     (*) The context argument passed to the function.  This will be maintained
+     	 with the get_context/put_context functions mentioned above.
+
+     (*) An argument that's 0 on success or negative for an error.
+
+     If an error occurs, it can be assumed that the page has not been written
+     to the cache, and that either there's a block containing the old data or
+     no block at all in the cache.
+
+     end_io_func() might be called in interrupt context.
+
+Else if there's no space available in the cache, -ENOBUFS will be returned.
+
+
+MULTIPLE PAGE READ
+------------------
+
+A facility is provided to read several pages at once, as requested by the
+readpages() address space operation:
+
+	int fscache_read_or_alloc_pages(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
+					struct address_space *mapping,
+					struct list_head *pages,
+					int *nr_pages,
+					fscache_rw_complete_t end_io_func,
+					void *context,
+					gfp_t gfp);
+
+This works in a similar way to fscache_read_or_alloc_page(), except:
+
+ (1) Any page it can retrieve data for is removed from pages and nr_pages and
+     dispatched for reading to the disk.  Reads of adjacent pages on disk may
+     be merged for greater efficiency.
+
+ (2) The mark_pages_cached() cookie operation will be called on several pages
+     at once if they're being read or allocated.
+
+ (3) If there was an general error, then that error will be returned.
+
+     Else if some pages couldn't be allocated or read, then -ENOBUFS will be
+     returned.
+
+     Else if some pages couldn't be read but were allocated, then -ENODATA will
+     be returned.
+
+     Otherwise, if all pages had reads dispatched, then 0 will be returned, the
+     list will be empty and *nr_pages will be 0.
+
+ (4) end_io_func will be called once for each page being read as the reads
+     complete.  It will be called in process context if error != 0, but it may
+     be called in interrupt context if there is no error.
+
+Note that a return of -ENODATA, -ENOBUFS or any other error does not preclude
+some of the pages being read and some being allocated.  Those pages will have
+been marked appropriately and will need uncaching.
+
+
+==============
+PAGE UNCACHING
+==============
+
+To uncache a page, this function should be called:
+
+	void fscache_uncache_page(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
+				  struct page *page);
+
+This function permits the cache to release any in-memory representation it
+might be holding for this netfs page.  This function must be called once for
+each page on which the read or write page functions above have been called to
+make sure the cache's in-memory tracking information gets torn down.
+
+Note that pages can't be explicitly deleted from the a data file.  The whole
+data file must be retired (see the relinquish cookie function below).
+
+Furthermore, note that this does not cancel the asynchronous read or write
+operation started by the read/alloc and write functions.
+
+There is another unbinding operation similar to the above that takes a set of
+pages to unbind in one go:
+
+	void fscache_uncache_pagevec(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
+				     struct pagevec *pagevec);
+
+
+==========================
+INDEX AND DATA FILE UPDATE
+==========================
+
+To request an update of the index data for an index or other object, the
+following function should be called:
+
+	void fscache_update_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie);
+
+This function will refer back to the netfs_data pointer stored in the cookie by
+the acquisition function to obtain the data to write into each revised index
+entry.  The update method in the parent index definition will be called to
+transfer the data.
+
+Note that partial updates may happen automatically at other times, such as when
+data blocks are added to a data file object.
+
+
+===============================
+MISCELLANEOUS COOKIE OPERATIONS
+===============================
+
+There are a number of operations that can be used to control cookies:
+
+ (*) Cookie pinning:
+
+	int fscache_pin_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie);
+	void fscache_unpin_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie);
+
+     These operations permit data cookies to be pinned into the cache and to
+     have the pinning removed.  They are not permitted on index cookies.
+
+     The pinning function will return 0 if successful, -ENOBUFS in the cookie
+     isn't backed by a cache, -EOPNOTSUPP if the cache doesn't support pinning,
+     -ENOSPC if there isn't enough space to honour the operation, -ENOMEM or
+     -EIO if there's any other problem.
+
+ (*) Data space reservation:
+
+	int fscache_reserve_space(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, loff_t size);
+
+     This permits a netfs to request cache space be reserved to store up to the
+     given amount of a file.  It is permitted to ask for more than the current
+     size of the file to allow for future file expansion.
+
+     If size is given as zero then the reservation will be cancelled.
+
+     The function will return 0 if successful, -ENOBUFS in the cookie isn't
+     backed by a cache, -EOPNOTSUPP if the cache doesn't support reservations,
+     -ENOSPC if there isn't enough space to honour the operation, -ENOMEM or
+     -EIO if there's any other problem.
+
+     Note that this doesn't pin an object in a cache; it can still be culled to
+     make space if it's not in use.
+
+
+=====================
+COOKIE UNREGISTRATION
+=====================
+
+To get rid of a cookie, this function should be called.
+
+	void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
+				       int retire);
+
+If retire is non-zero, then the object will be marked for recycling, and all
+copies of it will be removed from all active caches in which it is present.
+Not only that but all child objects will also be retired.
+
+If retire is zero, then the object may be available again when next the
+acquisition function is called.  Retirement here will overrule the pinning on a
+cookie.
+
+One very important note - relinquish must NOT be called for a cookie unless all
+the cookies for "child" indices, objects and pages have been relinquished
+first.
+
+
+================================
+INDEX AND DATA FILE INVALIDATION
+================================
+
+There is no direct way to invalidate an index subtree or a data file.  To do
+this, the caller should relinquish and retire the cookie they have, and then
+acquire a new one.

The attached patch causes read_cache_pages() to release page-private data on a
page for which add_to_page_cache() fails or the filler function fails. This
permits pages with caching references associated with them to be cleaned up.

The invalidatepage() address space op is called (indirectly) to do the honours.

The attached patch makes the kAFS filesystem in fs/afs/ use FS-Cache, and
through it any attached caches.  The kAFS filesystem will use caching
automatically if it's available.

  6 siblings, 2 replies; 11+ messages in thread
From: David Howells @ 2006-08-18 15:35 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: torvalds, akpm, steved, trond.myklebust
  Cc: linux-fsdevel, linux-cachefs, nfsv4, linux-kernel

The attached patch makes it possible for the NFS filesystem to make use of the
network filesystem local caching service (FS-Cache).

To be able to use this, an updated mount program is required.  This can be
obtained from:

	http://people.redhat.com/steved/cachefs/util-linux/

To mount an NFS filesystem to use caching, add an "fsc" option to the mount:

	mount warthog:/ /a -o fsc

  To: torvalds, akpm, steved, trond.myklebust
  Cc: linux-fsdevel, linux-cachefs, nfsv4, linux-kernel

This one-line patch fixes the missing export of copy_page introduced
by the cachefile patches.  This patch is not yet upstream, but is required
for cachefile on ia64.  It will be pushed upstream when cachefile goes
upstream.

Add a cache backend that permits a mounted filesystem to be used as a backing
store for the cache.


CacheFiles uses a userspace daemon to do some of the cache management - such as
reaping stale nodes and culling.  This is called cachefilesd and lives in
/sbin.  The source for the daemon can be downloaded from:

	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/cachefs/cachefilesd.c

And an example configuration from:

	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/cachefs/cachefilesd.conf

The filesystem and data integrity of the cache are only as good as those of the
filesystem providing the backing services.  Note that CacheFiles does not
attempt to journal anything since the journalling interfaces of the various
filesystems are very specific in nature.

CacheFiles creates a proc-file - "/proc/fs/cachefiles" - that is used for
communication with the daemon.  Only one thing may have this open at once, and
whilst it is open, a cache is at least partially in existence.  The daemon
opens this and sends commands down it to control the cache.

CacheFiles is currently limited to a single cache.

CacheFiles attempts to maintain at least a certain percentage of free space on
the filesystem, shrinking the cache by culling the objects it contains to make
space if necessary - see the "Cache Culling" section.  This means it can be
placed on the same medium as a live set of data, and will expand to make use of
spare space and automatically contract when the set of data requires more
space.


============
REQUIREMENTS
============

The use of CacheFiles and its daemon requires the following features to be
available in the system and in the cache filesystem:

	- dnotify.

	- extended attributes (xattrs).

	- openat() and friends.

	- bmap() support on files in the filesystem (FIBMAP ioctl).

	- The use of bmap() to detect a partial page at the end of the file.

It is strongly recommended that the "dir_index" option is enabled on Ext3
filesystems being used as a cache.


=============
CONFIGURATION
=============

The cache is configured by a script in /etc/cachefilesd.conf.  These commands
set up cache ready for use.  The following script commands are available:

 (*) brun <N>%
 (*) bcull <N>%
 (*) bstop <N>%

	Configure the culling limits.  Optional.  See the section on culling
	The defaults are 7%, 5% and 1% respectively.

 (*) dir <path>

	Specify the directory containing the root of the cache.  Mandatory.

 (*) tag <name>

	Specify a tag to FS-Cache to use in distinguishing multiple caches.
	Optional.  The default is "CacheFiles".

 (*) debug <mask>

	Specify a numeric bitmask to control debugging in the kernel module.
	Optional.  The default is zero (all off).


==================
STARTING THE CACHE
==================

The cache is started by running the daemon.  The daemon opens the cache proc
file, configures the cache and tells it to begin caching.  At that point the
cache binds to fscache and the cache becomes live.

The daemon is run as follows:

	/sbin/cachefilesd [-d]* [-s] [-n] [-f <configfile>]

The flags are:

 (*) -d

	Increase the debugging level.  This can be specified multiple times and
	is cumulative with itself.

 (*) -s

	Send messages to stderr instead of syslog.

 (*) -n

	Don't daemonise and go into background.

 (*) -f <configfile>

	Use an alternative configuration file rather than the default one.


===============
THINGS TO AVOID
===============

Do not mount other things within the cache as this will cause problems.  The
kernel module contains its own very cut-down path walking facility that ignores
mountpoints, but the daemon can't avoid them.

Do not create, rename or unlink files and directories in the cache whilst the
cache is active, as this may cause the state to become uncertain.

Renaming files in the cache might make objects appear to be other objects (the
filename is part of the lookup key).

Do not change or remove the extended attributes attached to cache files by the
cache as this will cause the cache state management to get confused.

Do not create files or directories in the cache, lest the cache get confused or
serve incorrect data.

Do not chmod files in the cache.  The module creates things with minimal
permissions to prevent random users being able to access them directly.


=============
CACHE CULLING
=============

The cache may need culling occasionally to make space.  This involves
discarding objects from the cache that have been used less recently than
anything else.  Culling is based on the access time of data objects.  Empty
directories are culled if not in use.

Cache culling is done on the basis of the percentage of blocks available in the
underlying filesystem.  There are three "limits":

 (*) brun

     If the amount of available space in the cache rises above this limit, then
     culling is turned off.

 (*) bcull

     If the amount of available space in the cache falls below this limit, then
     culling is started.

 (*) bstop

     If the amount of available space in the cache falls below this limit, then
     no further allocation of disk space is permitted until culling has raised
     the amount above this limit again.

These must be configured thusly:

	0 <= bstop < bcull < brun < 100

Note that these are percentages of available space, and do _not_ appear as 100
minus the percentage displayed by the "df" program.

The userspace daemon scans the cache to build up a table of cullable objects.
These are then culled in least recently used order.  A new scan of the cache is
started as soon as space is made in the table.  Objects will be skipped if
their atimes have changed or if the kernel module says it is still using them.


===============
CACHE STRUCTURE
===============

The CacheFiles module will create two directories in the directory it was
given:

 (*) cache/

 (*) graveyard/

The active cache objects all reside in the first directory.  The CacheFiles
kernel module moves any retired or culled objects that it can't simply unlink
to the graveyard from which the daemon will actually delete them.

The daemon uses dnotify to monitor the graveyard directory, and will delete
anything that appears therein.


The module represents index objects as directories with the filename "I..." or
"J...".  Note that the "cache/" directory is itself a special index.

Data objects are represented as files if they have no children, or directories
if they do.  Their filenames all begin "D..." or "E...".  If represented as a
directory, data objects will have a file in the directory called "data" that
actually holds the data.

Special objects are similar to data objects, except their filenames begin
"S..." or "T...".


If an object has children, then it will be represented as a directory.
Immediately in the representative directory are a collection of directories
named for hash values of the child object keys with an '@' prepended.  Into
this directory, if possible, will be placed the representations of the child
objects:

	INDEX     INDEX      INDEX                             DATA FILES
	========= ========== ================================= ================
	cache/@4a/I03nfs/@30/Ji000000000000000--fHg8hi8400
	cache/@4a/I03nfs/@30/Ji000000000000000--fHg8hi8400/@75/Es0g000w...DB1ry
	cache/@4a/I03nfs/@30/Ji000000000000000--fHg8hi8400/@75/Es0g000w...N22ry
	cache/@4a/I03nfs/@30/Ji000000000000000--fHg8hi8400/@75/Es0g000w...FP1ry


If the key is so long that it exceeds NAME_MAX with the decorations added on to
it, then it will be cut into pieces, the first few of which will be used to
make a nest of directories, and the last one of which will be the objects
inside the last directory.  The names of the intermediate directories will have
'+' prepended:

	J1223/@23/+xy...z/+kl...m/Epqr


Note that keys are raw data, and not only may they exceed NAME_MAX in size,
they may also contain things like '/' and NUL characters, and so they may not
be suitable for turning directly into a filename.

To handle this, CacheFiles will use a suitably printable filename directly and
"base-64" encode ones that aren't directly suitable.  The two versions of
object filenames indicate the encoding:

	OBJECT TYPE	PRINTABLE	ENCODED
	===============	===============	===============
	Index		"I..."		"J..."
	Data		"D..."		"E..."
	Special		"S..."		"T..."

Intermediate directories are always "@" or "+" as appropriate.


Each object in the cache has an extended attribute label that holds the object
type ID (required to distinguish special objects) and the auxiliary data from
the netfs.  The latter is used to detect stale objects in the cache and update
or retire them.


Note that CacheFiles will erase from the cache any file it doesn't recognise or
any file of an incorrect type (such as a FIFO file or a device file).

+OVERVIEW
+========
+
+CacheFiles is a caching backend that's meant to use as a cache a directory on
+an already mounted filesystem of a local type (such as Ext3).
+
+CacheFiles uses a userspace daemon to do some of the cache management - such as
+reaping stale nodes and culling.  This is called cachefilesd and lives in
+/sbin.
+
+The filesystem and data integrity of the cache are only as good as those of the

+attempt to journal anything since the journalling interfaces of the various
+filesystems are very specific in nature.

+whilst it is open, a cache is at least partially in existence.  The daemon
+opens this and sends commands down it to control the cache.
+
+CacheFiles is currently limited to a single cache.
+
+CacheFiles attempts to maintain at least a certain percentage of free space on

+	OR'd into the mask to collect various information:
+
+		1	Turn on trace of function entry (_enter() macros)
+		2	Turn on trace of function exit (_leave() macros)
+		4	Turn on trace of internal debug points (_debug())
+
+	This mask can also be set through /proc/sys/fs/cachefiles/debug.

Why don't you use the function declaration style that is used in the
rest of the NFS client?  All the parameters belong on one line, don't
they?

Actually, the NFS client has several different styles, and mine's not without
precedent, eg:

extern int nfs3_setxattr(struct dentry *, const char *,
			const void *, size_t, int);

extern ssize_t nfs_direct_IO(int, struct kiocb *, const struct iovec *, loff_t,
			unsigned long);

static inline loff_t
nfs_size_to_loff_t(__u64 size)

> All the parameters belong on one line, don't they?

Depends how much you want to upset those people who tremble with anxiety at
the sight of a line longer than 80 chars.

Normally, one wraps the line if it exceeds 80 columns...
