Darrick J. Wong b005b448da xfs: fix deadlock and streamline xfs_getfsmap performance
[ Upstream commit 8ffa90e1145c70c7ac47f14b59583b2296d89e72 ]

Refactor xfs_getfsmap to improve its performance: instead of indirectly
calling a function that copies one record to userspace at a time, create
a shadow buffer in the kernel and copy the whole array once at the end.
On the author's computer, this reduces the runtime on his /home by ~20%.

This also eliminates a deadlock when running GETFSMAP against the
realtime device.  The current code locks the rtbitmap to create
fsmappings and copies them into userspace, having not released the
rtbitmap lock.  If the userspace buffer is an mmap of a sparse file that
itself resides on the realtime device, the write page fault will recurse
into the fs for allocation, which will deadlock on the rtbitmap lock.

Fixes: 4c934c7dd6 ("xfs: report realtime space information via the rtbitmap")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
