As of commit 1b53e51a4a8f ("btrfs: don't commit transaction for every
subvol create") we started to make any fsync after creating a subvolume
to fallback to a transaction commit if the fsync is performed in the
same transaction that was used to create the subvolume. This happens
with the following at ioctl.c:create_subvol():
$ cat fs/btrfs/ioctl.c
(...)
/* Tree log can't currently deal with an inode which is a new root. */
btrfs_set_log_full_commit(trans);
(...)
Note that the comment is misleading as the problem is not that fsync can
not deal with the root inode of a new root, but that we can not log any
inode that belongs to a root that was not yet persisted because that would
make log replay fail since the root doesn't exist at log replay time.
The above simply makes any fsync fallback to a full transaction commit if
it happens in the same transaction used to create the subvolume - even if
it's an inode that belongs to any other subvolume. This is a brute force
solution and it doesn't necessarily improve performance for every workload
out there - it just moves a full transaction commit from one place, the
subvolume creation, to another - an fsync for any inode.
Just improve on this by making the fallback to a transaction commit only
for an fsync against an inode of the new subvolume, or for the directory
that contains the dentry that points to the new subvolume (in case anyone
attempts to fsync the directory in the same transaction).

Instead of using a inode pointer, use a btrfs_inode pointer in the log
context structure, as this is generally what we need and allows for some
internal APIs to take a btrfs_inode instead, making them more consistent
with most of the code base. This will later allow to help to remove a lot
of BTRFS_I() calls in btrfs_sync_file().

Do a cleanup in more headers:
- add forward declarations for types referenced by pointers
- add includes when types need them
This fixes potential compilation problems if the headers are reordered

When logging an inode and we require to copy items from subvolume leaves
to the log tree, we clone each subvolume leaf and than use that clone to
copy items to the log tree. This is required to avoid possible deadlocks
as stated in commit 796787c978ef ("btrfs: do not modify log tree while
holding a leaf from fs tree locked").
The cloning requires allocating an extent buffer (struct extent_buffer)
and then allocating pages (folios) to attach to the extent buffer. This
may be slow in case we are under memory pressure, and since we are doing
the cloning while holding a read lock on a subvolume leaf, it means we
can be blocking other operations on that leaf for significant periods of
time, which can increase latency on operations like creating other files,
renaming files, etc. Similarly because we're under a log transaction, we
may also cause extra delay on other tasks doing an fsync, because syncing
the log requires waiting for tasks that joined a log transaction to exit
the transaction.
So to improve this, for any inode logging operation that needs to copy
items from a subvolume leaf ("full sync" or "copy everything" bit set
in the inode), preallocate a dummy extent buffer before locking any
extent buffer from the subvolume tree, and even before joining a log
transaction, add it to the log context and then use it when we need to
copy items from a subvolume leaf to the log tree. This avoids making
other operations get extra latency when waiting to lock a subvolume
leaf that is used during inode logging and we are under heavy memory
pressure.

Currently we use the value 1 for BTRFS_LOG_FORCE_COMMIT, but that value
has a few inconveniences:
1) If it's ever used by btrfs_log_inode(), or any function down the call
chain, we have to remember to btrfs_set_log_full_commit(), which is
repetitive and has a chance to be forgotten in future use cases.
btrfs_log_inode_parent() only calls btrfs_set_log_full_commit() when
it gets a negative value from btrfs_log_inode();
2) Down the call chain of btrfs_log_inode(), we may have functions that
need to force a log commit, but can return either an error (negative
value), false (0) or true (1). So they are forced to return some
random negative to force a log commit - using BTRFS_LOG_FORCE_COMMIT
would make the intention more clear. Currently the only example is
flush_dir_items_batch().
So turn BTRFS_LOG_FORCE_COMMIT into a negative value. The chosen value
is -(MAX_ERRNO + 1), so that it does not overlap any errno value and makes
it easier to debug.

When logging a directory, we always set the inode's last_dir_index_offset
to the offset of the last dir index item we found. This is using an extra
field in the log context structure, and it makes more sense to update it
only after we insert dir index items, and we could directly update the
inode's last_dir_index_offset field instead.
So make this simpler by updating the inode's last_dir_index_offset only
when we actually insert dir index keys in the log tree, and getting rid
of the last_dir_item_offset field in the log context structure.

Many functions throughout btrfs take name buffer and name length
arguments. Most of these functions at the highest level are usually
called with these arguments extracted from a supplied dentry's name.
But the entire name can be passed instead, making each function a little
more elegant.
Each function whose arguments are currently the name and length
extracted from a dentry is herein converted to instead take a pointer to
the name in the dentry. The couple of calls to these calls without a
struct dentry are converted to create an appropriate qstr to pass in.
Additionally, every function which is only called with a name/len
extracted directly from a qstr is also converted.
This change has positive effect on stack consumption, frame of many
functions is reduced but this will be used in the future for fscrypt
related structures.

When logging a directory we start by flushing all its delayed items.
That results in adding dir index items to the subvolume btree, for new
dentries, and removing dir index items from the subvolume btree for any
dentries that were deleted.
This makes it straightforward to log a directory simply by iterating over
all the modified subvolume btree leaves, especially when we used to log
both dir index keys and dir item keys (before commit 339d035424849c
("btrfs: only copy dir index keys when logging a directory") and when we
used to copy old dir index entries for leaves modified in the current
transaction (before commit 732d591a5d6c12 ("btrfs: stop copying old dir
items when logging a directory")).
From an efficiency point of view this has a couple of drawbacks:
1) Adds extra latency, due to copying delayed items to the subvolume btree
and deleting dir index items from the btree.
Further if there are other tasks accessing the btree, which is common
(syscalls like creat, mkdir, rename, link, unlink, truncate, reflinks,
etc, finishing an ordered extent, etc), lock contention can cause
further delays, both to the task logging a directory and to the other
tasks accessing the btree;
2) More time spent overall flushing delayed items, if after logging the
directory further changes are done to the directory in the same
transaction.
For example, if we add 10 dentries to a directory, fsync it, add more
10 dentries, fsync it again, then add more 10 dentries and fsync it
again, then we end up inserting 3 batches of 10 items to the subvolume
btree. With the changes from this patch, we flush all the delayed items
to the btree only once - a single batch of 30 items, and outside the
logging code (transaction commit or when delayed items are flushed
asynchronously).
This change simply skips the flushing of delayed items every time we log a
directory. Instead we copy the delayed insertion items directly to the log
tree and delete delayed deletion items directly from the log tree.
Therefore avoiding changing first the subvolume btree and then scanning it
for new items to copy from it to the log tree and detecting deletions
by observing gaps in consecutive dir index keys in subvolume btree leaves.
Running the following tests on a non-debug kernel (Debian's default kernel
config), on a box with a NVMe device, a 12 cores Intel CPU and 64G of ram,
produced the results below.
The results compare a branch without this patch and all the other patches
it depends on versus the same branch with the patchset applied.
The patchset is comprised of the following patches:
btrfs: don't drop dir index range items when logging a directory
btrfs: remove the root argument from log_new_dir_dentries()
btrfs: update stale comment for log_new_dir_dentries()

When logging an inode, if we detect the inode has a reference that
conflicts with some other inode that got renamed, we log that other inode
while holding the log mutex of the current inode. We then find out if
there are other inodes that conflict with the first conflicting inode,
and log them while under the log mutex of the original inode. This is
fine because the recursion can only happen once.
For the upcoming work where we directly log delayed items without flushing
them first to the subvolume tree, this recursion adds a lot of complexity
and it's hard to keep lockdep happy about it.
So collect a list of conflicting inodes and then log the inodes after
unlocking the log mutex of the inode we started with.
Also limit the maximum number of conflict inodes we log to 10, to avoid
spending too much time logging (and maybe allocating too many list
elements too), as typically we don't have more than 1 or 2 conflicting
inodes - if we go over the limit, simply fallback to a transaction commit.
It is possible to have a very long list of conflicting inodes to be
intentionally created by a user if he/she creates a very long succession
of renames like this:
(...)
rename E to F
rename D to E
rename C to D
rename B to C
rename A to B
touch A (create a new file named A)
fsync A
If that happened for a sequence of hundreds or thousands of renames, it
could massively slow down the logging and cause other secondary effects
like for example blocking other fsync operations and transaction commits
for a very long time (assuming it wouldn't run into -ENOSPC or -ENOMEM
first). However such cases are very uncommon to happen in practice,
nevertheless it's better to be prepared for them and avoid chaos.
Such long sequence of conflicting inodes could be created before this
change.

Currently we will return 1 or -EAGAIN if we decide we need to commit
the transaction rather than sync the log. In practice this doesn't
really matter, we interpret any !0 and !BTRFS_NO_LOG_SYNC as needing to
commit the transaction. However this makes it hard to figure out what
the correct thing to do is.
Fix this up by defining BTRFS_LOG_FORCE_COMMIT and using this in all the
places where we want to force the transaction to be committed.

During a rename or link operation, we need to determine if an inode was
previously logged or not, and if it was, do some update to the logged
inode. We used to rely exclusively on the logged_trans field of struct
btrfs_inode to determine that, but that was not reliable because the
value of that field is not persisted in the inode item, so it's lost
when an inode is evicted and loaded back again. That led to several
issues in the past, such as not persisting deletions (such as the case
fixed by commit 803f0f64d17769 ("Btrfs: fix fsync not persisting dentry
deletions due to inode evictions")), or resulting in losing a file
after an inode eviction followed by a rename (commit ecc64fab7d49c6
("btrfs: fix lost inode on log replay after mix of fsync, rename and
inode eviction")), besides other issues.
So the inode_logged() helper was introduced and used to determine if an
inode was possibly logged before in the current transaction, with the
caveat that it could return false positives, in the sense that even if an
inode was not logged before in the current transaction, it could still
return true, but never to return false in case the inode was logged.
>From a functional point of view that is fine, but from a performance
perspective it can introduce significant latencies to rename and link
operations, as they will end up doing inode logging even when it is not
necessary.
Recently on a 5.15 kernel, an openSUSE Tumbleweed user reported package
installations and upgrades, with the zypper tool, were often taking a
long time to complete. With strace it could be observed that zypper was
spending about 99% of its time on rename operations, and then with
further analysis we checked that directory logging was happening too
frequently. Taking into account that installation/upgrade of some of the
packages needed a few thousand file renames, the slowdown was very
noticeable for the user.
The issue was caused indirectly due to an excessive number of inode
evictions on a 5.15 kernel, about 100x more compared to a 5.13, 5.14 or
a 5.16-rc8 kernel. While triggering the inode evictions if something
outside btrfs' control, btrfs could still behave better by eliminating
the false positives from the inode_logged() helper.
So change inode_logged() to actually eliminate such false positives caused
by inode eviction and when an inode was never logged since the filesystem
was mounted, as both cases relate to when the logged_trans field of struct
btrfs_inode has a value of zero. When it can not determine if the inode
was logged based only on the logged_trans value, lookup for the existence
of the inode item in the log tree - if it's there then we known the inode
was logged, if it's not there then it can not have been logged in the
current transaction. Once we determine if the inode was logged, update
the logged_trans value to avoid future calls to have to search in the log
tree again.
Alternatively, we could start storing logged_trans in the on disk inode
item structure (struct btrfs_inode_item) in the unused space it still has,
but that would be a bit odd because:
1) We only care about logged_trans since the filesystem was mounted, we
don't care about its value from a previous mount. Having it persisted
in the inode item structure would not make the best use of the precious
unused space;
2) In order to get logged_trans persisted before inode eviction, we would
have to update the delayed inode when we finish logging the inode and
update its logged_trans in struct btrfs_inode, which makes it a bit
cumbersome since we need to check if the delayed inode exists, if not
create it and populate it and deal with any errors (-ENOMEM mostly).
This change is part of a patchset comprised of the following patches:
1/5 btrfs: add helper to delete a dir entry from a log tree
2/5 btrfs: pass the dentry to btrfs_log_new_name() instead of the inode
3/5 btrfs: avoid logging all directory changes during renames
4/5 btrfs: stop doing unnecessary log updates during a rename
5/5 btrfs: avoid inode logging during rename and link when possible
The following test script mimics part of what the zypper tool does during
package installations/upgrades. It does not triggers inode evictions, but
it's similar because it triggers false positives from the inode_logged()
helper, because the inodes have a logged_trans of 0, there's a log tree
due to a fsync of an unrelated file and the directory inode has its
last_trans field set to the current transaction:
$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/dev/nvme0n1
MNT=/mnt/nvme0n1
NUM_FILES=10000
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV
mount $DEV $MNT
mkdir $MNT/testdir
for ((i = 1; i <= $NUM_FILES; i++)); do
echo -n > $MNT/testdir/file_$i
done
sync
# Now do some change to an unrelated file and fsync it.
# This is just to create a log tree to make sure that inode_logged()
# does not return false when called against "testdir".
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite 0 4K" -c "fsync" $MNT/foo
# Do some change to testdir. This is to make sure inode_logged()
# will return true when called against "testdir", because its
# logged_trans is 0, it was changed in the current transaction
# and there's a log tree.
echo -n > $MNT/testdir/file_$((NUM_FILES + 1))
echo "Renaming $NUM_FILES files..."
start=$(date +%s%N)
for ((i = 1; i <= $NUM_FILES; i++)); do
mv $MNT/testdir/file_$i $MNT/testdir/file_$i-RPMDELETE
done
end=$(date +%s%N)
dur=$(( (end - start) / 1000000 ))

When doing a rename of a file, if the file or its old parent directory
were logged before, we log the new name of the file and then make sure
we log the old parent directory, to ensure that after a log replay the
old name of the file is deleted and the new name added.
The logging of the old parent directory can take some time, because it
will scan all leaves modified in the current transaction, check which
directory entries were already logged, copy the ones that were not
logged before, etc. In this rename context all we need to do is make
sure that the old name of the file is deleted on log replay, so instead
of triggering a directory log operation, we can just delete the old
directory entry from the log if it's there, or in case it isn't there,
just log a range item to signal log replay that the old name must be
deleted. So change btrfs_log_new_name() to do that.
This scenario is actually not uncommon to trigger, and recently on a
5.15 kernel, an openSUSE Tumbleweed user reported package installations
and upgrades, with the zypper tool, were often taking a long time to
complete, much more than usual. With strace it could be observed that
zypper was spending over 99% of its time on rename operations, and then
with further analysis we checked that directory logging was happening
too frequently and causing high latencies for the rename operations.
Taking into account that installation/upgrade of some of these packages
needed about a few thousand file renames, the slowdown was very noticeable
for the user.
The issue was caused indirectly due to an excessive number of inode
evictions on a 5.15 kernel, about 100x more compared to a 5.13, 5.14
or a 5.16-rc8 kernel. After an inode eviction we can't tell for sure,
in an efficient way, if an inode was previously logged in the current
transaction, so we are pessimistic and assume it was, because in case
it was we need to update the logged inode. More details on that in one
of the patches in the same series (subject "btrfs: avoid inode logging
during rename and link when possible"). Either way, in case the parent
directory was logged before, we currently do more work then necessary
during a rename, and this change minimizes that amount of work.
The following script mimics part of what a package installation/upgrade
with zypper does, which is basically renaming a lot of files, in some
directory under /usr, to a name with a suffix of "-RPMDELETE":
$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/dev/nvme0n1
MNT=/mnt/nvme0n1
NUM_FILES=10000
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV
mount $DEV $MNT
mkdir $MNT/testdir
for ((i = 1; i <= $NUM_FILES; i++)); do
echo -n > $MNT/testdir/file_$i
done
sync
# Do some change to testdir and fsync it.
echo -n > $MNT/testdir/file_$((NUM_FILES + 1))
xfs_io -c "fsync" $MNT/testdir
echo "Renaming $NUM_FILES files..."
start=$(date +%s%N)
for ((i = 1; i <= $NUM_FILES; i++)); do
mv $MNT/testdir/file_$i $MNT/testdir/file_$i-RPMDELETE
done
end=$(date +%s%N)
dur=$(( (end - start) / 1000000 ))
echo "Renames took $dur milliseconds"
umount $MNT

In the next patch in the series, there will be the need to access the old
name, and its length, of an inode when logging the inode during a rename.
So instead of passing the inode to btrfs_log_new_name() pass the dentry,
because from the dentry we can get the inode, the name and its length.
This will avoid passing 3 new parameters to btrfs_log_new_name() in the
next patch - the name, its length and an index number. This way we end
up passing only 1 new parameter, the index number.

Currently we will abort the transaction if we get a random error (like
-EIO) while trying to remove the directory entries from the root log
during rename.
However since these are simply log tree related errors, we can mark the
trans as needing a full commit. Then if the error was truly
catastrophic we'll hit it during the normal commit and abort as
appropriate.

After the first time we log a directory in the current transaction, for
each directory item in a changed leaf of the subvolume tree, we have to
check if we previously logged the item, in order to overwrite it in case
its data changed or skip it in case its data hasn't changed.
Checking if we have logged each item before not only wastes times, but it
also adds lock contention on the log tree. So in order to minimize the
number of times we do such checks, keep track of the offset of the last
key we logged for a directory and, on the next time we log the directory,
skip the checks for any new keys that have an offset greater than the
offset we have previously saved. This is specially effective for index
keys, because the offset for these keys comes from a monotonically
increasing counter.
This patch is part of a patchset comprised of the following 5 patches:
btrfs: remove root argument from btrfs_log_inode() and its callees
btrfs: remove redundant log root assignment from log_dir_items()
btrfs: factor out the copying loop of dir items from log_dir_items()
btrfs: insert items in batches when logging a directory when possible
btrfs: keep track of the last logged keys when logging a directory
This is patch 5/5.
The following test was used on a non-debug kernel to measure the impact
it has on a directory fsync:
$ cat test-dir-fsync.sh
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/dev/nvme0n1
MNT=/mnt/nvme0n1

for ((i = 1; i <= $NUM_NEW_FILES; i++)); do
echo -n > $MNT/testdir/file_$i
done
# fsync the directory, this will log the new dir items and the inodes
# they point to, because these are new inodes.
start=$(date +%s%N)
xfs_io -c "fsync" $MNT/testdir
end=$(date +%s%N)
dur=$(( (end - start) / 1000000 ))
echo "dir fsync took $dur ms after adding $NUM_NEW_FILES files"
# sync to force transaction commit and wipeout the log.
sync
del_inc=$(( $NUM_NEW_FILES / $NUM_FILE_DELETES ))
for ((i = 1; i <= $NUM_NEW_FILES; i += $del_inc)); do
rm -f $MNT/testdir/file_$i
done
# fsync the directory, this will only log dir items, there are no
# dentries pointing to new inodes.
start=$(date +%s%N)
xfs_io -c "fsync" $MNT/testdir
end=$(date +%s%N)
dur=$(( (end - start) / 1000000 ))
echo "dir fsync took $dur ms after deleting $NUM_FILE_DELETES files"
umount $MNT

Currently regardless of a full or a fast fsync we always wait for ordered
extents to complete, and then start logging the inode after that. However
for fast fsyncs we can just wait for the writeback to complete, we don't
need to wait for the ordered extents to complete since we use the list of
modified extents maps to figure out which extents we must log and we can
get their checksums directly from the ordered extents that are still in
flight, otherwise look them up from the checksums tree.
Until commit b5e6c3e170b770 ("btrfs: always wait on ordered extents at
fsync time"), for fast fsyncs, we used to start logging without even
waiting for the writeback to complete first, we would wait for it to
complete after logging, while holding a transaction open, which lead to
performance issues when using cgroups and probably for other cases too,
as wait for IO while holding a transaction handle should be avoided as
much as possible. After that, for fast fsyncs, we started to wait for
ordered extents to complete before starting to log, which adds some
latency to fsyncs and we even got at least one report about a performance
drop which bisected to that particular change:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/20181109215148.GF23260@techsingularity.net/
This change makes fast fsyncs only wait for writeback to finish before
starting to log the inode, instead of waiting for both the writeback to
finish and for the ordered extents to complete. This brings back part of
the logic we had that extracts checksums from in flight ordered extents,
which are not yet in the checksums tree, and making sure transaction
commits wait for the completion of ordered extents previously logged
(by far most of the time they have already completed by the time a
transaction commit starts, resulting in no wait at all), to avoid any
data loss if an ordered extent completes after the transaction used to
log an inode is committed, followed by a power failure.
When there are no other tasks accessing the checksums and the subvolume
btrees, the ordered extent completion is pretty fast, typically taking
100 to 200 microseconds only in my observations. However when there are
other tasks accessing these btrees, ordered extent completion can take a
lot more time due to lock contention on nodes and leaves of these btrees.
I've seen cases over 2 milliseconds, which starts to be significant. In
particular when we do have concurrent fsyncs against different files there
is a lot of contention on the checksums btree, since we have many tasks
writing the checksums into the btree and other tasks that already started
the logging phase are doing lookups for checksums in the btree.
This change also turns all ranged fsyncs into full ranged fsyncs, which
is something we already did when not using the NO_HOLES features or when
doing a full fsync. This is to guarantee we never miss checksums due to
writeback having been triggered only for a part of an extent, and we end
up logging the full extent but only checksums for the written range, which
results in missing checksums after log replay. Allowing ranged fsyncs to
operate again only in the original range, when using the NO_HOLES feature
and doing a fast fsync is doable but requires some non trivial changes to
the writeback path, which can always be worked on later if needed, but I
don't think they are a very common use case.
Several tests were performed using fio for different numbers of concurrent
jobs, each writing and fsyncing its own file, for both sequential and
random file writes. The tests were run on bare metal, no virtualization,
on a box with 12 cores (Intel i7-8700), 64Gb of RAM and a NVMe device,
with a kernel configuration that is the default of typical distributions
(debian in this case), without debug options enabled (kasan, kmemleak,
slub debug, debug of page allocations, lock debugging, etc).
The following script that calls fio was used:
$ cat test-fsync.sh
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/dev/nvme0n1
MNT=/mnt/btrfs
MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o ssd -o space_cache=v2"

Since commit d4682ba03ef618 ("Btrfs: sync log after logging new name") we
started to commit logs, and fallback to transaction commits when we failed
to log the new names or commit the logs, after link and rename operations
when the target inodes (or their parents) were previously logged in the
current transaction. This was to avoid losing directories despite an
explicit fsync on them when they are ancestors of some inode that got a
new named logged, due to a link or rename operation. However that adds the
cost of starting IO and waiting for it to complete, which can cause higher
latencies for applications.
Instead of doing that, just make sure that when we log a new name for an
inode we don't mark any of its ancestors as logged, so that if any one
does an fsync against any of them, without doing any other change on them,
the fsync commits the log. This way we only pay the cost of a log commit
(or a transaction commit if something goes wrong or a new block group was
created) if the application explicitly asks to fsync any of the parent
directories.
Using dbench, which mixes several filesystems operations including renames,
revealed some significant latency gains. The following script that uses
dbench was used to test this:
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/dev/nvme0n1
MNT=/mnt/btrfs
MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o ssd -o space_cache=v2"
MKFS_OPTIONS="-m single -d single"
THREADS=16
echo "performance" | tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
mkfs.btrfs -f $MKFS_OPTIONS $DEV
mount $MOUNT_OPTIONS $DEV $MNT
dbench -t 300 -D $MNT $THREADS
umount $MNT
The test was run on bare metal, no virtualization, on a box with 12 cores
(Intel i7-8700), 64Gb of RAM and using a NVMe device, with a kernel
configuration that is the default of typical distributions (debian in this
case), without debug options enabled (kasan, kmemleak, slub debug, debug
of page allocations, lock debugging, etc).

The io_err field of struct btrfs_log_ctx is no longer used after the
recent simplification of the fast fsync path, where we now wait for
ordered extents to complete before logging the inode. We did this in
commit b5e6c3e170b7 ("btrfs: always wait on ordered extents at fsync
time") and commit a2120a473a80 ("btrfs: clean up the left over
logged_list usage") removed its last use.

btrfs_pin_log_trans defines the variable "ret" for return value, but it
is not modified after initialization. Further, I find that none of the
callers do handles the return value, so it is safe to drop the unneeded
"ret" and make it return void.

When we add a new name for an inode which was logged in the current
transaction, we update the inode in the log so that its new name and
ancestors are added to the log. However when we do this we do not persist
the log, so the changes remain in memory only, and as a consequence, any
ancestors that were created in the current transaction are updated such
that future calls to btrfs_inode_in_log() return true. This leads to a
subsequent fsync against such new ancestor directories returning
immediately, without persisting the log, therefore after a power failure
the new ancestor directories do not exist, despite fsync being called
against them explicitly.
Example:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
$ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
$ mkdir /mnt/A
$ mkdir /mnt/B
$ mkdir /mnt/A/C
$ touch /mnt/B/foo
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/B/foo
$ ln /mnt/B/foo /mnt/A/C/foo
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/A
<power failure>
After the power failure, directory "A" does not exist, despite the explicit
fsync on it.
Instead of fixing this by changing the behaviour of the explicit fsync on
directory "A" to persist the log instead of doing nothing, make the logging
of the new file name (which happens when creating a hard link or renaming)
persist the log. This approach not only is simpler, not requiring addition
of new fields to the inode in memory structure, but also gives us the same
behaviour as ext4, xfs and f2fs (possibly other filesystems too).
A test case for fstests follows soon.

An example reproducer for this is:

$ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
$ mkdir /mnt/dir
$ touch /mnt/dir/foo
$ sync
$ mv /mnt/dir/foo /mnt/dir/bar
$ touch /mnt/dir/foo
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/dir/bar
This is because while logging the inode of file bar we end up logging its
parent directory (since its inode has an unlink_trans field matching the
current transaction id due to the rename operation), which in turn logs
the inodes for all its new dentries, so that the new inode for the new
file named foo gets logged which in turn triggered another logging attempt
for the inode we are fsync'ing, since that inode had an old name that
corresponds to the name of the new inode.
So fix this by ensuring that when logging the inode for a new dentry that
has a name matching an old name of some other inode, we don't log again
the original inode that we are fsync'ing.

If we delete a snapshot, fsync its parent directory and crash/power fail
before the next transaction commit, on the next mount when we attempt to
replay the log tree of the root containing the parent directory we will
fail and prevent the filesystem from mounting, which is solvable by wiping
out the log trees with the btrfs-zero-log tool but very inconvenient as
we will lose any data and metadata fsynced before the parent directory
was fsynced.
For example:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc
$ mount /dev/sdc /mnt
$ mkdir /mnt/testdir
$ btrfs subvolume snapshot /mnt /mnt/testdir/snap
$ btrfs subvolume delete /mnt/testdir/snap
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/testdir
< crash / power failure and reboot >
$ mount /dev/sdc /mnt
mount: mount(2) failed: No such file or directory
And in dmesg/syslog we get the following message and trace:

This happens because when we are replaying the log and processing the
directory entry pointing to the snapshot in the subvolume tree, we treat
its btrfs_dir_item item as having a location with a key type matching
BTRFS_INODE_ITEM_KEY, which is wrong because the type matches
BTRFS_ROOT_ITEM_KEY and therefore must be processed differently, as the
object id refers to a root number and not to an inode in the root
containing the parent directory.
So fix this by triggering a transaction commit if an fsync against the
parent directory is requested after deleting a snapshot. This is the
simplest approach for a rare use case. Some alternative that avoids the
transaction commit would require more code to explicitly delete the
snapshot at log replay time (factoring out common code from ioctl.c:
btrfs_ioctl_snap_destroy()), special care at fsync time to remove the
log tree of the snapshot's root from the log root of the root of tree
roots, amongst other steps.
A test case for xfstests that triggers the issue follows.

We can get into inconsistency between inodes and directory entries
after fsyncing a directory. The issue is that while a directory gets
the new dentries persisted in the fsync log and replayed at mount time,
the link count of the inode that directory entries point to doesn't
get updated, staying with an incorrect link count (smaller then the
correct value). This later leads to stale file handle errors when
accessing (including attempt to delete) some of the links if all the
other ones are removed, which also implies impossibility to delete the
parent directories, since the dentries can not be removed.
Another issue is that (unlike ext3/4, xfs, f2fs, reiserfs, nilfs2),
when fsyncing a directory, new files aren't logged (their metadata and
dentries) nor any child directories. So this patch fixes this issue too,
since it has the same resolution as the incorrect inode link count issue
mentioned before.
This is very easy to reproduce, and the following excerpt from my test
case for xfstests shows how:

# of our file remained with a link count of 1.

Fsck, without this fix, also complains about the wrong link count:

unresolved ref dir 258 index 2 namelen 5 name foo_2 filetype 1 errors 4, no inode ref
unresolved ref dir 258 index 3 namelen 5 name foo_3 filetype 1 errors 4, no inode ref
So fix this by logging the inodes that the dentries point to when
fsyncing a directory.

When we do a fast fsync, we start all ordered operations and then while
they're running in parallel we visit the list of modified extent maps
and construct their matching file extent items and write them to the
log btree. After that, in btrfs_sync_log() we wait for all the ordered
operations to finish (via btrfs_wait_logged_extents).
The problem with this is that we were completely ignoring errors that
can happen in the extent write path, such as -ENOSPC, a temporary -ENOMEM
or -EIO errors for example. When such error happens, it means we have parts
of the on disk extent that weren't written to, and so we end up logging
file extent items that point to these extents that contain garbage/random
data - so after a crash/reboot plus log replay, we get our inode's metadata
pointing to those extents.
This worked in contrast with the full (non-fast) fsync path, where we
start all ordered operations, wait for them to finish and then write
to the log btree. In this path, after each ordered operation completes
we check if it's flagged with an error (BTRFS_ORDERED_IOERR) and return
-EIO if so (via btrfs_wait_ordered_range).
So if an error happens with any ordered operation, just return a -EIO
error to userspace, so that it knows that not all of its previous writes
were durably persisted and the application can take proper action (like
redo the writes for e.g.) - and definitely not leave any file extent items
in the log refer to non fully written extents.

While we're doing a full fsync (when the inode has the flag
BTRFS_INODE_NEEDS_FULL_SYNC set) that is ranged too (covers only a
portion of the file), we might have ordered operations that are started
before or while we're logging the inode and that fall outside the fsync
range.
Therefore when a full ranged fsync finishes don't remove every extent
map from the list of modified extent maps - as for some of them, that
fall outside our fsync range, their respective ordered operation hasn't
finished yet, meaning the corresponding file extent item wasn't inserted
into the fs/subvol tree yet and therefore we didn't log it, and we must
let the next fast fsync (one that checks only the modified list) see this
extent map and log a matching file extent item to the log btree and wait
for its ordered operation to finish (if it's still ongoing).
A test case for xfstests follows.

We might commit the log sub-transaction which didn't contain the metadata we
logged. It was because we didn't record the log transid and just select
the current log sub-transaction to commit, but the right one might be
committed by the other task already. Actually, we needn't do anything
and it is safe that we go back directly in this case.
This patch improves the log sync by the above idea. We record the transid
of the log sub-transaction in which we log the metadata, and the transid
of the log sub-transaction we have committed. If the committed transid
is >= the transid we record when logging the metadata, we just go back.

It is possible that many tasks sync the log tree at the same time, but
only one task can do the sync work, the others will wait for it. But those
wait tasks didn't get the result of the log sync, and returned 0 when they
ended the wait. It caused those tasks skipped the error handle, and the
serious problem was they told the users the file sync succeeded but in
fact they failed.
This patch fixes this problem by introducing a log context structure,
we insert it into the a global list. When the sync fails, we will set
the error number of every log context in the list, then the waiting tasks
get the error number of the log context and handle the error if need.

rpm has a habit of running fdatasync when the file hasn't
changed. We already detect if a file hasn't been changed
in the current transaction but it might have been sent to
the tree-log in this transaction and not changed since
the last call to fsync.
In this case, we want to avoid a tree log sync, which includes
a number of synchronous writes and barriers. This commit
extends the existing tracking of the last transaction to change
a file to also track the last sub-transaction.
The end result is that rpm -ivh and -Uvh are roughly twice as fast,
and on par with ext3.

The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged
without including operations on other files and directories in the FS.
It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to
fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC.
The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked
if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory
in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules
to the tree logging.
1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync
log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory
where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink,
but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory.
Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the
directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when
renaming to a different directory.
mkdir foo/some_dir
normal commit
rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir
mkdir foo/some_dir
fsync foo/some_dir/some_file
The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording
it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone
unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit
2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync
log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during
the same transaction.
2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename
when the directory they are being removed from was logged.
2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging
a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one
3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count
of zero and redo the rm -rf
mkdir f1/foo
normal commit
rm -rf f1/foo
fsync(f1)
The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never
called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must
be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire
directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the
ugly details.

File syncs and directory syncs are optimized by copying their
items into a special (copy-on-write) log tree. There is one log tree per
subvolume and the btrfs super block points to a tree of log tree roots.
After a crash, items are copied out of the log tree and back into the
subvolume. See tree-log.c for all the details.
