I don't think this is right. If you return an error from ->readpage, I'm
pretty sure you're supposed to unlock that page. Looking at
generic_file_buffered_read():
error = mapping->a_ops->readpage(filp, page);
if (unlikely(error)) {
if (error == AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE) {
put_page(page);
error = 0;
goto find_page;
}
goto readpage_error;
}
...
readpage_error:
put_page(page);
goto out;
...
out:
ra->prev_pos = prev_index;
ra->prev_pos <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
ra->prev_pos |= prev_offset;
*ppos = ((loff_t)index << PAGE_SHIFT) + offset;
file_accessed(filp);
return written ? written : error;
so we don't call unlock_page() in generic code, which means the next time
we try to get this page, we'll do ...
page = find_get_page(mapping, index);
...
if (!PageUptodate(page)) {
error = wait_on_page_locked_killable(page);
and presumably we'll wait forever because nobody is going to unlock this
page?

Not for this patch, obviously, but why do you go to the effort of using
iomap_readpage() to implement gfs2_readpage(), but don't use iomap for
gfs2_readahead()? Far more pages are brought in through ->readahead
than are brought in through ->readpage.

Again, future work, but you probably want to pass in &gh here so you
don't have to eat up another 32 bytes or so of stack space on an unused
gfs2_holder.

I'm wondering if we want to do this in common code rather than making it
something special only a few filesystems do (either because they care
about workloads with many threads accessing the same file, or because
their per-file locks are very heavy-weight).
