2012-02-22xfs: remove xfs_trans_unlocked_itemChristoph Hellwig1-5/+1
There is no reason to wake up log space waiters when unlocking inodes or dquots, and the commit log has no explanation for this function either. Given that we now have exact log space wakeups everywhere we can assume the reason for this function was to paper over log space races in earlier XFS versions.

Replace i_pin_wait, which is only used during synchronous inode flushing with a bit waitqueue.

2012-01-17xfs: replace i_flock with a sleeping bitlockChristoph Hellwig1-2/+2
We almost never block on i_flock, the exception is synchronous inode flushing. Instead of bloating the inode with a 16/24-byte completion that we abuse as a semaphore just implement it as a bitlock that uses a bit waitqueue for the rare sleeping path. This primarily is a tradeoff between a much smaller inode and a faster non-blocking path vs faster wakeups, and we are much better off with the former. A small downside is that we will lose lockdep checking for i_flock, but given that it's always taken inside the ilock that should be acceptable. Note that for example the inode writeback locking is implemented in a very similar way.

2011-10-11xfs: simplify xfs_trans_ijoin* againChristoph Hellwig1-3/+1
There is no reason to keep a reference to the inode even if we unlock it during transaction commit because we never drop a reference between the ijoin and commit. Also use this fact to merge xfs_trans_ijoin_ref back into xfs_trans_ijoin - the third argument decides if an unlock is needed now. I'm actually starting to wonder if allowing inodes to be unlocked at transaction commit really is worth the effort. The only real benefit is that they can be unlocked earlier when commiting a synchronous transactions, but that could be solved by doing the log force manually after the unlock, too.

2011-07-06xfs: unpin stale inodes directly in IOP_COMMITTEDDave Chinner1-6/+8
When inodes are marked stale in a transaction, they are treated specially when the inode log item is being inserted into the AIL. It tries to avoid moving the log item forward in the AIL due to a race condition with the writing the underlying buffer back to disk. The was "fixed" in commit de25c18 ("xfs: avoid moving stale inodes in the AIL"). To avoid moving the item forward, we return a LSN smaller than the commit_lsn of the completing transaction, thereby trying to trick the commit code into not moving the inode forward at all. I'm not sure this ever worked as intended - it assumes the inode is already in the AIL, but I don't think the returned LSN would have been small enough to prevent moving the inode. It appears that the reason it worked is that the lower LSN of the inodes meant they were inserted into the AIL and flushed before the inode buffer (which was moved to the commit_lsn of the transaction). The big problem is that with delayed logging, the returning of the different LSN means insertion takes the slow, non-bulk path. Worse yet is that insertion is to a position -before- the commit_lsn so it is doing a AIL traversal on every insertion, and has to walk over all the items that have already been inserted into the AIL. It's expensive. To compound the matter further, with delayed logging inodes are likely to go from clean to stale in a single checkpoint, which means they aren't even in the AIL at all when we come across them at AIL insertion time. Hence these were all getting inserted into the AIL when they simply do not need to be as inodes marked XFS_ISTALE are never written back. Transactional/recovery integrity is maintained in this case by the other items in the unlink transaction that were modified (e.g. the AGI btree blocks) and committed in the same checkpoint. So to fix this, simply unpin the stale inodes directly in xfs_inode_item_committed() and return -1 to indicate that the AIL insertion code does not need to do any further processing of these inodes.

2011-04-08xfs: fix extent format buffer allocation sizeDave Chinner1-27/+40
When formatting an inode item, we have to allocate a separate buffer to hold extents when there are delayed allocation extents on the inode and it is in extent format. The allocation size is derived from the in-core data fork representation, which accounts for delayed allocation extents, while the on-disk representation does not contain any delalloc extents. As a result of this mismatch, the allocated buffer can be far larger than needed to hold the real extent list which, due to the fact the inode is in extent format, is limited to the size of the literal area of the inode. However, we can have thousands of delalloc extents, resulting in an allocation size orders of magnitude larger than is needed to hold all the real extents. Fix this by limiting the size of the buffer being allocated to the size of the literal area of the inodes in the filesystem (i.e. the maximum size an inode fork can grow to).

2011-03-26xfs: introduce inode cluster buffer trylocks for xfs_iflushDave Chinner1-3/+3
There is an ABBA deadlock between synchronous inode flushing in xfs_reclaim_inode and xfs_icluster_free. xfs_icluster_free locks the buffer, then takes inode ilocks, whilst synchronous reclaim takes the ilock followed by the buffer lock in xfs_iflush(). To avoid this deadlock, separate the inode cluster buffer locking semantics from the synchronous inode flush semantics, allowing callers to attempt to lock the buffer but still issue synchronous IO if it can get the buffer. This requires xfs_iflush() calls that currently use non-blocking semantics to pass SYNC_TRYLOCK rather than 0 as the flags parameter. This allows xfs_reclaim_inode to avoid the deadlock on the buffer lock and detect the failure so that it can drop the inode ilock and restart the reclaim attempt on the inode. This allows xfs_ifree_cluster to obtain the inode lock, mark the inode stale and release it and hence defuse the deadlock situation. It also has the pleasant side effect of avoiding IO in xfs_reclaim_inode when it tries to next reclaim the inode as it is now marked stale.

2010-12-20xfs: remove all the inodes on a buffer from the AIL in bulkDave Chinner1-16/+74
When inode buffer IO completes, usually all of the inodes are removed from the AIL. This involves processing them one at a time and taking the AIL lock once for every inode. When all CPUs are processing inode IO completions, this causes excessive amount sof contention on the AIL lock. Instead, change the way we process inode IO completion in the buffer IO done callback. Allow the inode IO done callback to walk the list of IO done callbacks and pull all the inodes off the buffer in one go and then process them as a batch. Once all the inodes for removal are collected, take the AIL lock once and do a bulk removal operation to minimise traffic on the AIL lock.

2010-12-01xfs: avoid moving stale inodes in the AILDave Chinner1-6/+25
When an inode has been marked stale because the cluster is being freed, we don't want to (re-)insert this inode into the AIL. There is a race condition where the cluster buffer may be unpinned before the inode is inserted into the AIL during transaction committed processing. If the buffer is unpinned before the inode item has been committed and inserted, then it is possible for the buffer to be released and hence processthe stale inode callbacks before the inode is inserted into the AIL. In this case, we then insert a clean, stale inode into the AIL which will never get removed by an IO completion. It will, however, get reclaimed and that triggers an assert in xfs_inode_free() complaining about freeing an inode still in the AIL. This race can be avoided by not moving stale inodes forward in the AIL during transaction commit completion processing. This closes the race condition by ensuring we never insert clean stale inodes into the AIL. It is safe to do this because a dirty stale inode, by definition, must already be in the AIL.

2010-10-18xfs: don't use vfs writeback for pure metadata modificationsDave Chinner1-9/+0
Under heavy multi-way parallel create workloads, the VFS struggles to write back all the inodes that have been changed in age order. The bdi flusher thread becomes CPU bound, spending 85% of it's time in the VFS code, mostly traversing the superblock dirty inode list to separate dirty inodes old enough to flush. We already keep an index of all metadata changes in age order - in the AIL - and continued log pressure will do age ordered writeback without any extra overhead at all. If there is no pressure on the log, the xfssyncd will periodically write back metadata in ascending disk address offset order so will be very efficient. Hence we can stop marking VFS inodes dirty during transaction commit or when changing timestamps during transactions. This will keep the inodes in the superblock dirty list to those containing data or unlogged metadata changes. However, the timstamp changes are slightly more complex than this - there are a couple of places that do unlogged updates of the timestamps, and the VFS need to be informed of these. Hence add a new function xfs_trans_ichgtime() for transactional changes, and leave xfs_ichgtime() for the non-transactional changes.

2010-02-02xfs: Don't issue buffer IO direct from AIL push V2Dave Chinner1-83/+15
All buffers logged into the AIL are marked as delayed write. When the AIL needs to push the buffer out, it issues an async write of the buffer. This means that IO patterns are dependent on the order of buffers in the AIL. Instead of flushing the buffer, promote the buffer in the delayed write list so that the next time the xfsbufd is run the buffer will be flushed by the xfsbufd. Return the state to the xfsaild that the buffer was promoted so that the xfsaild knows that it needs to cause the xfsbufd to run to flush the buffers that were promoted. Using the xfsbufd for issuing the IO allows us to dispatch all buffer IO from the one queue. This means that we can make much more enlightened decisions on what order to flush buffers to disk as we don't have multiple places issuing IO. Optimisations to xfsbufd will be in a future patch.

2010-02-06xfs: Use delayed write for inodes rather than async V2Dave Chinner1-3/+7
We currently do background inode flush asynchronously, resulting in inodes being written in whatever order the background writeback issues them. Not only that, there are also blocking and non-blocking asynchronous inode flushes, depending on where the flush comes from. This patch completely removes asynchronous inode writeback. It removes all the strange writeback modes and replaces them with either a synchronous flush or a non-blocking delayed write flush. That is, inode flushes will only issue IO directly if they are synchronous, and background flushing may do nothing if the operation would block (e.g. on a pinned inode or buffer lock). Delayed write flushes will now result in the inode buffer sitting in the delwri queue of the buffer cache to be flushed by either an AIL push or by the xfsbufd timing out the buffer. This will allow accumulation of dirty inode buffers in memory and allow optimisation of inode cluster writeback at the xfsbufd level where we have much greater queue depths than the block layer elevators. We will also get adjacent inode cluster buffer IO merging for free when a later patch in the series allows sorting of the delayed write buffers before dispatch. This effectively means that any inode that is written back by background writeback will be seen as flush locked during AIL pushing, and will result in the buffers being pushed from there. This writeback path is currently non-optimal, but the next patch in the series will fix that problem. A side effect of this delayed write mechanism is that background inode reclaim will no longer directly flush inodes, nor can it wait on the flush lock. The result is that inode reclaim must leave the inode in the reclaimable state until it is clean. Hence attempts to reclaim a dirty inode in the background will simply skip the inode until it is clean and this allows other mechanisms (i.e. xfsbufd) to do more optimal writeback of the dirty buffers. As a result, the inode reclaim code has been rewritten so that it no longer relies on the ambiguous return values of xfs_iflush() to determine whether it is safe to reclaim an inode. Portions of this patch are derived from patches by Christoph Hellwig.

To reads the events do a cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter, allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various spots in XFS.

Also the btree tracing isn't included at all yet, as it will require additional core tracing features not in mainline yet, I plan to deliver it later.

2009-10-08xfs: implement ->dirty_inode to fix timestamp handlingChristoph Hellwig1-7/+11
This is picking up on Felix's repost of Dave's patch to implement a .dirty_inode method. We really need this notification because the VFS keeps writing directly into the inode structure instead of going through methods to update this state. In addition to the long-known atime issue we now also have a caller in VM code that updates c/mtime that way for shared writeable mmaps. And I found another one that no one has noticed in practice in the FIFO code. So implement ->dirty_inode to set i_update_core whenever the inode gets externally dirtied, and switch the c/mtime handling to the same scheme we already use for atime (always picking up the value from the Linux inode). Note that this patch also removes the xfs_synchronize_atime call in xfs_reclaim it was superflous as we already synchronize the time when writing the inode via the log (xfs_inode_item_format) or the normal buffers (xfs_iflush_int). In addition also remove the I_CLEAR check before copying the Linux timestamps - now that we always have the Linux inode available we can always use the timestamps in it. Also switch to just using file_update_time for regular reads/writes - that will get us all optimization done to it for free and make sure we notice early when it breaks.

2009-09-01xfs: simplify xfs_trans_igetChristoph Hellwig1-2/+0
xfs_trans_iget is a wrapper for xfs_iget that adds the inode to the transaction after it is read. Except when the inode already is in the inode cache, in which case it returns the existing locked inode with increment lock recursion counts. Now, no one in the tree every decrements these lock recursion counts, so any user of this gets a potential double unlock when both the original owner of the inode and the xfs_trans_iget caller unlock it. When looking back in a git bisect in the historic XFS tree there was only one place that decremented these counts, xfs_trans_iput. Introduced in commit ca25df7a840f426eb566d52667b6950b92bb84b5 by Adam Sweeney in 1993, and removed in commit 19f899a3ab155ff6a49c0c79b06f2f61059afaf3 by Steve Lord in 2003. And as long as it didn't slip through git bisects cracks never actually used in that time frame. A quick audit of the callers of xfs_trans_iget shows that no caller really relies on this behaviour fortunately - xfs_ialloc allows this inode from disk so it must not be there before, and all the RT allocator routines only every add each RT bitmap inode once. In addition to removing lots of code and reducing the size of the inode item this patch also avoids the double inode cache lookup in each create/mkdir/mknod transaction.

2009-09-01xfs: merge fsync and O_SYNC handlingChristoph Hellwig1-8/+0
The guarantees for O_SYNC are exactly the same as the ones we need to make for an fsync call (and given that Linux O_SYNC is O_DSYNC the equivalent is fdadatasync, but we treat both the same in XFS), except with a range data writeout. Jan Kara has started unifying these two path for filesystems using the generic helpers, and I've started to look at XFS. The actual transaction commited by xfs_fsync and xfs_write_sync_logforce has a different transaction number, but actually is exactly the same. We'll only use the fsync transaction going forward. One major difference is that xfs_write_sync_logforce never issues a cache flush unless we commit a transaction causing that as a side-effect, which is an obvious bug in the O_SYNC handling. Second all the locking and i_update_size vs i_update_core changes from 978b7237123d007b9fa983af6e0e2fa8f97f9934 never made it to xfs_write_sync_logforce, so we add them back. To make xfs_fsync easily usable from the O_SYNC path, the filemap_fdatawait call is moved up to xfs_file_fsync, so that we don't wait on the whole file after we already waited for our portion in xfs_write. We'll also use a plain call to filemap_write_and_wait_range instead of the previous sync_page_rang which did it in two steps including an half-hearted inode write out that doesn't help us. Once we're done with this also remove the now useless i_update_size tracking.

2008-12-01[XFS] embededd struct xfs_imap into xfs_inodeChristoph Hellwig1-3/+3
Most uses of struct xfs_imap are to map and inode to a buffer. To avoid copying around the inode location information we should just embedd a strcut xfs_imap into the xfs_inode. To make sure it doesn't bloat an inode the im_len is changed to a ushort, which is fine as that's what the users exepect anyway.

2008-12-01[XFS] kill xfs_dinode_core_tChristoph Hellwig1-1/+1
Now that we have a separate xfs_icdinode_t for the in-core inode which gets logged there is no need anymore for the xfs_dinode vs xfs_dinode_core split - the fact that part of the structure gets logged through the inode log item and a small part not can better be described in a comment. All sizeof operations on the dinode_core either really wanted the icdinode and are switched to that one, or had already added the size of the agi unlinked list pointer. Later both will be replaced with helpers once we get the larger CRC-enabled dinode. Removing the data and attribute fork unions also has the advantage that xfs_dinode.h doesn't need to pull in every header under the sun. While we're at it also add some more comments describing the dinode structure.

2008-10-30[XFS] Finish removing the mount pointer from the AIL APIDavid Chinner1-17/+12
Change all the remaining AIL API functions that are passed struct xfs_mount pointers to pass pointers directly to the struct xfs_ail being used. With this conversion, all external access to the AIL is via the struct xfs_ail. Hence the operation and referencing of the AIL is almost entirely independent of the xfs_mount that is using it - it is now much more tightly tied to the log and the items it is tracking in the log than it is tied to the xfs_mount.
