2012-03-09GFS2: call gfs2_write_alloc_required for each chunkBenjamin Marzinski1-5/+8
gfs2_fallocate was calling gfs2_write_alloc_required() once at the start of the function. This caused problems since gfs2_write_alloc_required used a long unsigned int for the len, but gfs2_fallocate could allocate a much larger amount. This patch will move the call into the loop where the chunks are actually allocated and zeroed out. This will keep the allocation size under the limit, and also allow gfs2_fallocate to quickly skip over sections of the file that are already completely allocated. fallcate_chunk was also not correctly setting the file size. It was using the len veriable to find the last block written to, but by the time it was setting the size, the len variable had already been decremented to 0.

2012-03-09GFS2: Clean up log flush header writingSteven Whitehouse1-65/+66
We already send both a pre and post flush to the block device when writing a journal header. There is no need to wait for the previous I/O specifically when we do this, unless we've turned "barriers" off. As a side effect, this also cleans up the code path for flushing the journal and makes it more readable. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-03-08GFS2: Remove a __GFP_NOFAIL allocationSteven Whitehouse4-2/+25
In order to ensure that we've got enough buffer heads for flushing the journal, the orignal code used __GFP_NOFAIL when performing this allocation. Here we dispense with that in favour of using a mempool. This should improve efficiency in low memory conditions since flushing the journal is a good way to get memory back, we don't want to be spinning, waiting on memory allocations. The buffers which are allocated via this mempool are fairly short lived, so that we'll recycle them pretty quickly. Although there are other memory allocations which occur during the journal flush process, this is the one which can potentially require the most memory, so the most important one to fix. The amount of memory reserved is a fixed amount, and we should not need to scale it when there are a greater number of filesystems in use. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2012-03-05GFS2: make sure rgrps are up to date in func gfs2_blk2rgrpdBob Peterson1-10/+4
This patch adds a call to gfs2_rindex_update from function gfs2_blk2rgrpd and removes calls to it that are made redundant by it. The problem is that a gfs2_grow can add rgrps to the rindex, then put those rgrps into use, thus rendering the rindex we read in at mount time incomplete.

2012-03-05GFS2: Eliminate sd_rindex_mutexBob Peterson3-14/+10
Over time, we've slowly eliminated the use of sd_rindex_mutex. Up to this point, it was only used in two places: function gfs2_ri_total (which totals the file system size by reading and parsing the rindex file) and function gfs2_rindex_update which updates the rgrps in memory. Both of these functions have the rindex glock to protect them, so the rindex is unnecessary. Since gfs2_grow writes to the rindex via the meta_fs, the mutex is in the wrong order according to the normal rules. This patch eliminates the mutex entirely to avoid the problem.

2012-02-28GFS2: Sort the ordered write listBob Peterson1-0/+16
This patch sorts the ordered write list for GFS2 writes. This increases the throughput for simultaneous writes.

2012-02-28GFS2: FITRIM ioctl supportSteven Whitehouse7-36/+152
The FITRIM ioctl provides an alternative way to send discard requests to the underlying device. Using the discard mount option results in every freed block generating a discard request to the block device. This can be slow, since many block devices can only process discard requests of larger sizes, and also such operations can be time consuming. Rather than using the discard mount option, FITRIM allows a sweep of the filesystem on an occasional basis, and also to optionally avoid sending down discard requests for smaller regions. In GFS2 FITRIM will work at resource group granularity. There is a flag for each resource group which keeps track of which resource groups have been trimmed. This flag is reset whenever a deallocation occurs in the resource group, and set whenever a successful FITRIM of that resource group has taken place. This helps to reduce repeated discard requests for the same block ranges, again improving performance. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-02-28GFS2: Move two functions from log.c to lops.cSteven Whitehouse3-101/+97
gfs2_log_get_buf() and gfs2_log_fake_buf() are both used only in lops.c, so move them next to their callers and they can then become static. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-02-28GFS2: glock statistics gatheringSteven Whitehouse5-19/+431
The stats are divided into two sets: those relating to the super block and those relating to an individual glock. The super block stats are done on a per cpu basis in order to try and reduce the overhead of gathering them. They are also further divided by glock type. In the case of both the super block and glock statistics, the same information is gathered in each case. The super block statistics are used to provide default values for most of the glock statistics, so that newly created glocks should have, as far as possible, a sensible starting point. The statistics are divided into three pairs of mean and variance, plus two counters. The mean/variance pairs are smoothed exponential estimates and the algorithm used is one which will be very familiar to those used to calculation of round trip times in network code. The three pairs of mean/variance measure the following things: 1. DLM lock time (non-blocking requests) 2. DLM lock time (blocking requests) 3. Inter-request time (again to the DLM) A non-blocking request is one which will complete right away, whatever the state of the DLM lock in question. That currently means any requests when (a) the current state of the lock is exclusive (b) the requested state is either null or unlocked or (c) the "try lock" flag is set. A blocking request covers all the other lock requests. There are two counters. The first is there primarily to show how many lock requests have been made, and thus how much data has gone into the mean/variance calculations. The other counter is counting queueing of holders at the top layer of the glock code. Hopefully that number will be a lot larger than the number of dlm lock requests issued. So why gather these statistics? There are several reasons we'd like to get a better idea of these timings: 1. To be able to better set the glock "min hold time" 2. To spot performance issues more easily 3. To improve the algorithm for selecting resource groups for allocation (to base it on lock wait time, rather than blindly using a "try lock") Due to the smoothing action of the updates, a step change in some input quantity being sampled will only fully be taken into account after 8 samples (or 4 for the variance) and this needs to be carefully considered when interpreting the results. Knowing both the time it takes a lock request to complete and the average time between lock requests for a glock means we can compute the total percentage of the time for which the node is able to use a glock vs. time that the rest of the cluster has its share. That will be very useful when setting the lock min hold time. The other point to remember is that all times are in nanoseconds. Great care has been taken to ensure that we measure exactly the quantities that we want, as accurately as possible. There are always inaccuracies in any measuring system, but I hope this is as accurate as we can reasonably make it. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-02-28GFS2: Read resource groups on mountSteven Whitehouse4-20/+17
This makes mount take slightly longer, but at the same time, the first write to the filesystem will be faster too. It also means that if there is a problem in the resource index, then we can refuse to mount rather than having to try and report that when the first write occurs. In addition, to avoid recursive locking, we hvae to take account of instances when the rindex glock may already be held when we are trying to update the rbtree of resource groups.

2012-02-28GFS2: Ensure rindex is uptodate for fallocateBob Peterson1-0/+5
This patch fixes a problem whereby gfs2_grow was failing and causing GFS2 to assert. The problem was that when GFS2's fallocate operation tried to acquire an "allocation" it made sure the rindex was up to date, and if not, it called gfs2_rindex_update. However, if the file being fallocated was the rindex itself, it was already locked at that point. By calling gfs2_rindex_update at an earlier point in time, we bring rindex up to date and thereby avoid trying to lock it when the "allocation" is acquired.

2012-01-11GFS2: let spectator mount do read only recoveryDavid Teigland3-2/+5
Previously, a spectator mount would not even attempt to do journal recovery for a failed node. This meant that if all mounted nodes were spectators, everyone would be stuck after a node failed, all waiting for recovery to be performed. This is unnecessary since the failed node had a clean journal. Instead, allow a spectator mount to do a partial "read only" recovery, which means it will check if the failed journal is clean, and if so, report a successful recovery. If the failed journal is not clean, it reports that journal recovery failed. This makes it work the same as a read only mount on a read only block device.

Clean up gfs2_alloc_blocks so that it takes the full extent length rather than just the number of non-inode blocks as an argument. That will only make a difference in the inode allocation case for now. Also, this fixes the extent length handling around gfs2_alloc_extent() so that multi block allocations will work again. The rd_last_alloc block is set to the final block in the allocated extent (as per the update to i_goal, but referenced to a different start point).

2011-11-21GFS2: move toward a generic multi-block allocatorBob Peterson6-39/+39
This patch is a revision of the one I previously posted. I tried to integrate all the suggestions Steve gave. The purpose of the patch is to change function gfs2_alloc_block (allocate either a dinode block or an extent of data blocks) to a more generic gfs2_alloc_blocks function that can allocate both a dinode _and_ an extent of data blocks in the same call. This will ultimately help us create a multi-block reservation scheme to reduce file fragmentation. This patch moves more toward a generic multi-block allocator that takes a pointer to the number of data blocks to allocate, plus whether or not to allocate a dinode. In theory, it could be called to allocate (1) a single dinode block, (2) a group of one or more data blocks, or (3) a dinode plus several data blocks.

2011-11-21GFS2: O_(D)SYNC support for fallocateSteven Whitehouse1-0/+5
Add sync of metadata after fallocate for O_SYNC files to ensure that we meet expectations for everything being on disk in this case. Unfortunately, the offset and len parameters are modified during the course of the fallocate function, so I've had to add a couple of new variables to call generic_write_sync() at the end. I know that potentially this will sync data as well within the range, but I think that is a fairly harmless side-effect overall, since we would not normally expect there to be any dirty data within the range in question.
