Darrick J. Wong acc8f8628c xfs: attach dquot buffer to dquot log item buffer 
Ever since 6.12-rc1, I've observed a pile of warnings from the kernel
when running fstests with quotas enabled:

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 458580 at mm/page_alloc.c:4221 __alloc_pages_noprof+0xc9c/0xf18

This corresponds to the line:

	WARN_ON_ONCE(current->flags & PF_MEMALLOC);

within the NOFAIL checks.  What's happening here is that the XFS AIL is
trying to write a disk quota update back into the filesystem, but for
that it needs to read the ondisk buffer for the dquot.  The buffer is
not in memory anymore, probably because it was evicted.  Regardless, the
buffer cache tries to allocate a new buffer, but those allocations are
NOFAIL.  The AIL thread has marked itself PF_MEMALLOC (aka noreclaim)
since commit 43ff2122e6 ("xfs: on-stack delayed write buffer lists")
presumably because reclaim can push on XFS to push on the AIL.

An easy way to fix this probably would have been to drop the NOFAIL flag
from the xfs_buf allocation and open code a retry loop, but then there's
still the problem that for bs>ps filesystems, the buffer itself could
require up to 64k worth of pages.

Inode items had similar behavior (multi-page cluster buffers that we
don't want to allocate in the AIL) which we solved by making transaction
precommit attach the inode cluster buffers to the dirty log item.  Let's
solve the dquot problem in the same way.

So: Make a real precommit handler to read the dquot buffer and attach it
to the log item; pass it to dqflush in the push method; and have the
iodone function detach the buffer once we've flushed everything.  Add a
state flag to the log item to track when a thread has entered the
precommit -> push mechanism to skip the detaching if it turns out that
the dquot is very busy, as we don't hold the dquot lock between log item
commit and AIL push).

Reading and attaching the dquot buffer in the precommit hook is inspired
by the work done for inode cluster buffers some time ago.

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 reStructuredText 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.
