From: Zhang Yi <[email protected]>
When truncating down an inode, we call xfs_truncate_page() to zero out
the tail partial block that beyond new EOF, which prevents exposing
stale data. But xfs_truncate_page() always assumes the blocksize is
i_blocksize(inode), it's not always true if we have a large allocation
unit for a file and we should aligned to this unitsize, e.g. realtime
inode should aligned to the rtextsize.
Current xfs_setattr_size() can't support zeroing out a large alignment
size on trucate down since the process order is wrong. We first do zero
out through xfs_truncate_page(), and then update inode size through
truncate_setsize() immediately. If the zeroed range is larger than a
folio, the write back path would not write back zeroed pagecache beyond
the EOF folio, so it doesn't write zeroes to the entire tail extent and
could expose stale data after an appending write into the next aligned
extent.
We need to adjust the order to zero out tail aligned blocks, write back
zeroed or cached data, update i_size and drop cache beyond aligned EOF
block, preparing for the fix of realtime inode and supporting the
upcoming forced alignment feature.

I'm not sure why we need to preserve the pagecache beyond eof having
zeroed and then written the post-eof blocks out to disk, but I'm
guessing this is why you open-code truncate_setsize?

At this point I wonder if these three truncate cases (down, up, and
unchanged) should just be broken out into three helpers without so much
twisty logic.
xfs_setattr_truncate_down():
xfs_truncate_page(..., &did_zeroing);
if (did_zeroing || extending_ondisk_eof)
filemap_write_and_wait_range(...);
truncate_setsize(...); /* or your opencoded version */
xfs_setattr_truncate_up():
xfs_zero_range(..., &did_zeroing);
truncate_setsize(...);
if (did_zeroing || extending_ondisk_eof)
filemap_write_and_wait_range(...);
xfs_setattr_truncate_unchanged():
truncate_setsize(...);
if (extending_ondisk_eof)
filemap_write_and_wait_range(...);
So then the callsite becomes:
if (newsize > oldsize)
xfs_settattr_truncate_up();
else if (newsize < oldsize)
xfs_setattr_truncate_down();
else
xfs_setattr_truncate_unchanged();
But, I dunno. Most of the code is really just extensive commenting.

This variable captures whether or not we need to write dirty file tail
data because we're extending the ondisk EOF, right?
I don't really like long names like any good 1980s C programmer, but
maybe we should name this something like "extending_ondisk_eof"?

Sure.

Maybe need_writeback would be a better name for the variable? Also no
need to initialize it to false at declaration time if it is

Any reason this open codes truncate_setsize()?

Lots of new logic for zeroing here. That makes xfs_setattr_size()
even longer than it already is. Can you lift this EOF zeroing logic
into it's own helper function so that it is clear that it is a
completely independent operation to the actual transaction that
changes the inode size. That would also allow the operations to be
broken up into:
if (newsize >= oldsize) {
/* do the simple stuff */
....
return error;
}
/* do the complex size reduction stuff without additional indenting */
-Dave.

Sure, this name looks better.

It's not equal to open codes truncate_setsize(), please look the truncate
start pos is aligned to rtextsize for realtime inode, we only drop page
cache that beyond the new aligned EOF block.
Thanks,
Yi.

Yeah, xfs_truncate_page() already done the zero out, if we keep passing the
newsize to truncate_pagecache() through truncate_setsize(), it would zero out
partial folio which cover the already zeroed blocks. What we should do at
this moment is just drop all the page cache beyond aligned EOF block, so I
roundup the newsize, just a small optimization.

Yeah, the extensive comments also bothers me, too. I will try to make
