2017-03-13writeback: fix memory leak in wb_queue_work()Tahsin Erdogan1-14/+21
When WB_registered flag is not set, wb_queue_work() skips queuing the work, but does not perform the necessary clean up. In particular, if work->auto_free is true, it should free the memory. The leak condition can be reprouced by following these steps: mount /dev/sdb /mnt/sdb /* In qemu console: device_del sdb */ umount /dev/sdb Above will result in a wb_queue_work() call on an unregistered wb and thus leak memory.

2016-08-09mm, writeback: flush plugged IO in wakeup_flusher_threads()Konstantin Khlebnikov1-0/+6
I've found funny live-lock between raid10 barriers during resync and memory controller hard limits. Inside mpage_readpages() task holds on to its plug bio which blocks the barrier in raid10. Its memory cgroup have no free memory thus the task goes into reclaimer but all reclaimable pages are dirty and cannot be written because raid10 is rebuilding and stuck on the barrier. Common flush of such IO in schedule() never happens, because the caller doesn't go to sleep. Lock is 'live' because changing memory limit or killing tasks which holds that stuck bio unblock whole progress. That was what happened in 3.18.x but I see no difference in upstream logic. Theoretically this might happen even without memory cgroup. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@yandex-team.ru> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-08-04writeback: Write dirty times for WB_SYNC_ALL writebackJan Kara1-0/+1
Currently we take care to handle I_DIRTY_TIME in vfs_fsync() and queue_io() so that inodes which have only dirty timestamps are properly written on fsync(2) and sync(2). However there are other call sites - most notably going through write_inode_now() - which expect inode to be clean after WB_SYNC_ALL writeback. This is not currently true as we do not clear I_DIRTY_TIME in __writeback_single_inode() even for WB_SYNC_ALL writeback in all the cases. This then resulted in the following oops because bdev_write_inode() did not clean the inode and writeback code later stumbled over a dirty inode with detached wb. general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC KASAN Modules linked in: CPU: 3 PID: 32 Comm: kworker/u10:1 Not tainted 4.6.0-rc3+ #349 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Workqueue: writeback wb_workfn (flush-11:0) task: ffff88006ccf1840 ti: ffff88006cda8000 task.ti: ffff88006cda8000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff818884d2>] [<ffffffff818884d2>] locked_inode_to_wb_and_lock_list+0xa2/0x750 RSP: 0018:ffff88006cdaf7d0 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: ffff88006ccf2050 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 000000114c8a8484 RDI: 0000000000000286 RBP: ffff88006cdaf820 R08: ffff88006ccf1840 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 000229915090805f R11: 0000000000000001 R12: ffff88006a72f5e0 R13: dffffc0000000000 R14: ffffed000d4e5eed R15: ffffffff8830cf40 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88006d500000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000003301bf8 CR3: 000000006368f000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000001ec9 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000600 Stack: ffff88006a72f680 ffff88006a72f768 ffff8800671230d8 03ff88006cdaf948 ffff88006a72f668 ffff88006a72f5e0 ffff8800671230d8 ffff88006cdaf948 ffff880065b90cc8 ffff880067123100 ffff88006cdaf970 ffffffff8188e12e Call Trace: [< inline >] inode_to_wb_and_lock_list fs/fs-writeback.c:309 [<ffffffff8188e12e>] writeback_sb_inodes+0x4de/0x1250 fs/fs-writeback.c:1554 [<ffffffff8188efa4>] __writeback_inodes_wb+0x104/0x1e0 fs/fs-writeback.c:1600 [<ffffffff8188f9ae>] wb_writeback+0x7ce/0xc90 fs/fs-writeback.c:1709 [< inline >] wb_do_writeback fs/fs-writeback.c:1844 [<ffffffff81891079>] wb_workfn+0x2f9/0x1000 fs/fs-writeback.c:1884 [<ffffffff813bcd1e>] process_one_work+0x78e/0x15c0 kernel/workqueue.c:2094 [<ffffffff813bdc2b>] worker_thread+0xdb/0xfc0 kernel/workqueue.c:2228 [<ffffffff813cdeef>] kthread+0x23f/0x2d0 drivers/block/aoe/aoecmd.c:1303 [<ffffffff867bc5d2>] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x50 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:392 Code: 05 94 4a a8 06 85 c0 0f 85 03 03 00 00 e8 07 15 d0 ff 41 80 3e 00 0f 85 64 06 00 00 49 8b 9c 24 88 01 00 00 48 89 d8 48 c1 e8 03 <42> 80 3c 28 00 0f 85 17 06 00 00 48 8b 03 48 83 c0 50 48 39 c3 RIP [< inline >] wb_get include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h:212 RIP [<ffffffff818884d2>] locked_inode_to_wb_and_lock_list+0xa2/0x750 fs/fs-writeback.c:281 RSP <ffff88006cdaf7d0> ---[ end trace 986a4d314dcb2694 ]--- Fix the problem by making sure __writeback_single_inode() writes inode only with dirty times in WB_SYNC_ALL mode.

2016-07-28mm: move most file-based accounting to the nodeMel Gorman1-2/+2
There are now a number of accounting oddities such as mapped file pages being accounted for on the node while the total number of file pages are accounted on the zone. This can be coped with to some extent but it's confusing so this patch moves the relevant file-based accounted. Due to throttling logic in the page allocator for reliable OOM detection, it is still necessary to track dirty and writeback pages on a per-zone basis.

2016-07-26fs/fs-writeback.c: inode writeback list tracking tracepointsBrian Foster1-2/+7
The per-sb inode writeback list tracks inodes currently under writeback to facilitate efficient sync processing. In particular, it ensures that sync only needs to walk through a list of inodes that were cleaned by the sync. Add a couple tracepoints to help identify when inodes are added/removed to and from the writeback lists. Piggyback off of the writeback lazytime tracepoint template as it already tracks the relevant inode information.

2016-07-26fs/fs-writeback.c: add a new writeback list for syncDave Chinner1-25/+81
wait_sb_inodes() currently does a walk of all inodes in the filesystem to find dirty one to wait on during sync. This is highly inefficient and wastes a lot of CPU when there are lots of clean cached inodes that we don't need to wait on. To avoid this "all inode" walk, we need to track inodes that are currently under writeback that we need to wait for. We do this by adding inodes to a writeback list on the sb when the mapping is first tagged as having pages under writeback. wait_sb_inodes() can then walk this list of "inodes under IO" and wait specifically just for the inodes that the current sync(2) needs to wait for. Define a couple helpers to add/remove an inode from the writeback list and call them when the overall mapping is tagged for or cleared from writeback. Update wait_sb_inodes() to walk only the inodes under writeback due to the sync. With this change, filesystem sync times are significantly reduced for fs' with largely populated inode caches and otherwise no other work to do. For example, on a 16xcpu 2GHz x86-64 server, 10TB XFS filesystem with a ~10m entry inode cache, sync times are reduced from ~7.3s to less than 0.1s when the filesystem is fully clean.

2016-05-20mm,writeback: don't use memory reserves for wb_start_writebackTetsuo Handa1-1/+2
When writeback operation cannot make forward progress because memory allocation requests needed for doing I/O cannot be satisfied (e.g. under OOM-livelock situation), we can observe flood of order-0 page allocation failure messages caused by complete depletion of memory reserves. This is caused by unconditionally allocating "struct wb_writeback_work" objects using GFP_ATOMIC from PF_MEMALLOC context. __alloc_pages_nodemask() { __alloc_pages_slowpath() { __alloc_pages_direct_reclaim() { __perform_reclaim() { current->flags |= PF_MEMALLOC; try_to_free_pages() { do_try_to_free_pages() { wakeup_flusher_threads() { wb_start_writeback() { kzalloc(sizeof(*work), GFP_ATOMIC) { /* ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS via PF_MEMALLOC */ } } } } } current->flags &= ~PF_MEMALLOC; } } } } Since I/O is stalling, allocating writeback requests forever shall deplete memory reserves. Fortunately, since wb_start_writeback() can fall back to wb_wakeup() when allocating "struct wb_writeback_work" failed, we don't need to allow wb_start_writeback() to use memory reserves.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov1-1/+1
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-03-20writeback, cgroup: fix use of the wrong bdi_writeback which mismatches the inodeTejun Heo1-10/+19
When cgroup writeback is in use, there can be multiple wb's (bdi_writeback's) per bdi and an inode may switch among them dynamically. In a couple places, the wrong wb was used leading to performing operations on the wrong list under the wrong lock corrupting the io lists. * writeback_single_inode() was taking @wb parameter and used it to remove the inode from io lists if it becomes clean after writeback. The callers of this function were always passing in the root wb regardless of the actual wb that the inode was associated with, which could also change while writeback is in progress. Fix it by dropping the @wb parameter and using inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() to determine and lock the associated wb. * After writeback_sb_inodes() writes out an inode, it re-locks @wb and inode to remove it from or move it to the right io list. It assumes that the inode is still associated with @wb; however, the inode may have switched to another wb while writeback was in progress. Fix it by using inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() to determine and lock the associated wb after writeback is complete. As the function requires the original @wb->list_lock locked for the next iteration, in the unlikely case where the inode has changed association, switch the locks.

2016-03-20writeback, cgroup: fix premature wb_put() in locked_inode_to_wb_and_lock_list()Tejun Heo1-3/+5
locked_inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() wb_get()'s the wb associated with the target inode, unlocks inode, locks the wb's list_lock and verifies that the inode is still associated with the wb. To prevent the wb going away between dropping inode lock and acquiring list_lock, the wb is pinned while inode lock is held. The wb reference is put right after acquiring list_lock citing that the wb won't be dereferenced anymore. This isn't true. If the inode is still associated with the wb, the inode has reference and it's safe to return the wb; however, if inode has been switched, the wb still needs to be unlocked which is a dereference and can lead to use-after-free if it it races with wb destruction. Fix it by putting the reference after releasing list_lock.

2016-03-03writeback: flush inode cgroup wb switches instead of pinning super_blockTejun Heo1-13/+41
If cgroup writeback is in use, inodes can be scheduled for asynchronous wb switching. Before 5ff8eaac1636 ("writeback: keep superblock pinned during cgroup writeback association switches"), this could race with umount leading to super_block being destroyed while inodes are pinned for wb switching. 5ff8eaac1636 fixed it by bumping s_active while wb switches are in flight; however, this allowed in-flight wb switches to make umounts asynchronous when the userland expected synchronosity - e.g. fsck immediately following umount may fail because the device is still busy. This patch removes the problematic super_block pinning and instead makes generic_shutdown_super() flush in-flight wb switches. wb switches are now executed on a dedicated isw_wq so that they can be flushed and isw_nr_in_flight keeps track of the number of in-flight wb switches so that flushing can be avoided in most cases. v2: Move cgroup_writeback_umount() further below and add MS_ACTIVE check in inode_switch_wbs() as Jan an Al suggested.

If cgroup writeback is in use, an inode is associated with a cgroup for writeback. If the inode's main dirtier changes to another cgroup, the association gets updated asynchronously. Nothing was pinning the superblock while such switches are in progress and superblock could go away while async switching is pending or in progress leading to crashes like the following. kernel BUG at fs/jbd2/transaction.c:319! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC CPU: 1 PID: 29158 Comm: kworker/1:10 Not tainted 4.5.0-rc3 #51 Hardware name: Google Google, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 Workqueue: events inode_switch_wbs_work_fn task: ffff880213dbbd40 ti: ffff880209264000 task.ti: ffff880209264000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff803e6922>] [<ffffffff803e6922>] start_this_handle+0x382/0x3e0 RSP: 0018:ffff880209267c30 EFLAGS: 00010202 ...

2015-11-05mm/filemap.c: make global sync not clear error status of individual inodesJunichi Nomura1-1/+6
filemap_fdatawait() is a function to wait for on-going writeback to complete but also consume and clear error status of the mapping set during writeback. The latter functionality is critical for applications to detect writeback error with system calls like fsync(2)/fdatasync(2). However filemap_fdatawait() is also used by sync(2) or FIFREEZE ioctl, which don't check error status of individual mappings. As a result, fsync() may not be able to detect writeback error if events happen in the following order: Application System admin ---------------------------------------------------------- write data on page cache Run sync command writeback completes with error filemap_fdatawait() clears error fsync returns success (but the data is not on disk) This patch adds filemap_fdatawait_keep_errors() for call sites where writeback error is not handled so that they don't clear error status.

2015-10-12writeback: bdi_writeback iteration must not skip dying onesTejun Heo1-9/+22
bdi_for_each_wb() is used in several places to wake up or issue writeback work items to all wb's (bdi_writeback's) on a given bdi. The iteration is performed by walking bdi->cgwb_tree; however, the tree only indexes wb's which are currently active. For example, when a memcg gets associated with a different blkcg, the old wb is removed from the tree so that the new one can be indexed. The old wb starts dying from then on but will linger till all its inodes are drained. As these dying wb's may still host dirty inodes, writeback operations which affect all wb's must include them. bdi_for_each_wb() skipping dying wb's led to sync(2) missing and failing to sync the inodes belonging to those wb's. This patch adds a RCU protected @bdi->wb_list which lists all wb's beloinging to that bdi. wb's are added on creation and removed on release rather than on the start of destruction. bdi_for_each_wb() usages are replaced with list_for_each[_continue]_rcu() iterations over @bdi->wb_list and bdi_for_each_wb() and its helpers are removed. v2: Updated as per Jan. last_wb ref leak in bdi_split_work_to_wbs() fixed and unnecessary list head severing in cgwb_bdi_destroy() removed.

2015-09-19fs-writeback: unplug before cond_resched in writeback_sb_inodesChris Mason1-1/+16
Commit 505a666ee3fc ("writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and writeback_inodes_wb()") has us holding a plug during writeback_sb_inodes, which increases the merge rate when relatively contiguous small files are written by the filesystem. It helps both on flash and spindles. For an fs_mark workload creating 4K files in parallel across 8 drives, this commit improves performance ~9% more by unplugging before calling cond_resched(). cond_resched() doesn't trigger an implicit unplug, so explicitly getting the IO down to the device before scheduling reduces latencies for anyone waiting on clean pages. It also cuts down on how often we use kblockd to unplug, which means less work bouncing from one workqueue to another.

We had to revert the pluggin in writeback_sb_inodes() because the wb->list_lock is held, but we could easily plug at a higher level before taking that lock, and unplug after releasing it. This does that. Chris will run performance numbers, just to verify that this approach is comparable to the alternative (we could just drop and re-take the lock around the blk_finish_plug() rather than these two commits. I'd have preferred waiting for actual performance numbers before picking one approach over the other, but I don't want to release rc1 with the known "sleeping function called from invalid context" issue, so I'll pick this cleanup version for now. But if the numbers show that we really want to plug just at the writeback_sb_inodes() level, and we should just play ugly games with the spinlock, we'll switch to that.

2015-09-11Revert "writeback: plug writeback at a high level"Linus Torvalds1-3/+4
This reverts commit d353d7587d02116b9732d5c06615aed75a4d3a47. Doing the block layer plug/unplug inside writeback_sb_inodes() is broken, because that function is actually called with a spinlock held: wb->list_lock, as pointed out by Chris Mason. Chris suggested just dropping and re-taking the spinlock around the blk_finish_plug() call (the plgging itself can happen under the spinlock), and that would technically work, but is just disgusting. We do something fairly similar - but not quite as disgusting because we at least have a better reason for it - in writeback_single_inode(), so it's not like the caller can depend on the lock being held over the call, but in this case there just isn't any good reason for that "release and re-take the lock" pattern. [ In general, we should really strive to avoid the "release and retake" pattern for locks, because in the general case it can easily cause subtle bugs when the caller caches any state around the call that might be invalidated by dropping the lock even just temporarily. ] But in this case, the plugging should be easy to just move up to the callers before the spinlock is taken, which should even improve the effectiveness of the plug. So there is really no good reason to play games with locking here. I'll send off a test-patch so that Dave Chinner can verify that that plug movement works. In the meantime this just reverts the problematic commit and adds a comment to the function so that we hopefully don't make this mistake again.

This is basically four patchsets from Tejun, that improve our buffered cgroup writeback. It was dependent on the other cgroup changes, but they went in earlier in this cycle. Series 1 is set of 5 patches that has cgroup writeback updates: - bdi_writeback iteration fix which could lead to some wb's being skipped or repeated during e.g. sync under memory pressure. - Simplification of wb work wait mechanism. - Writeback tracepoints updated to report cgroup. Series 2 is is a set of updates for the CFQ cgroup writeback handling: cfq has always charged all async IOs to the root cgroup. It didn't have much choice as writeback didn't know about cgroups and there was no way to tell who to blame for a given writeback IO. writeback finally grew support for cgroups and now tags each writeback IO with the appropriate cgroup to charge it against. This patchset updates cfq so that it follows the blkcg each bio is tagged with. Async cfq_queues are now shared across cfq_group, which is per-cgroup, instead of per-request_queue cfq_data. This makes all IOs follow the weight based IO resource distribution implemented by cfq. - Switched from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_NOWAIT as suggested by Jeff. - Other misc review points addressed, acks added and rebased. Series 3 is the blkcg policy cleanup patches: This patchset contains assorted cleanups for blkcg_policy methods and blk[c]g_policy_data handling. - alloc/free added for blkg_policy_data. exit dropped. - alloc/free added for blkcg_policy_data. - blk-throttle's async percpu allocation is replaced with direct allocation. - all methods now take blk[c]g_policy_data instead of blkcg_gq or blkcg. And finally, series 4 is a set of patches cleaning up the blkcg stats handling: blkcg's stats have always been somwhat of a mess. This patchset tries to improve the situation a bit. - The following patches added to consolidate blkcg entry point and blkg creation. This is in itself is an improvement and helps colllecting common stats on bio issue. - per-blkg stats now accounted on bio issue rather than request completion so that bio based and request based drivers can behave the same way.

2015-08-18writeback: bdi_for_each_wb() iteration is memcg ID based not blkcgTejun Heo1-3/+3
wb's (bdi_writeback's) are currently keyed by memcg ID; however, in an earlier implementation, wb's were keyed by blkcg ID. bdi_for_each_wb() walks bdi->cgwb_tree in the ascending ID order and allows iterations to start from an arbitrary ID which is used to interrupt and resume iterations. Unfortunately, while changing wb to be keyed by memcg ID instead of blkcg, bdi_for_each_wb() was missed and is still assuming that wb's are keyed by blkcg ID. This doesn't affect iterations which don't get interrupted but bdi_split_work_to_wbs() makes use of iteration resuming on allocation failures and thus may incorrectly skip or repeat wb's. Fix it by changing bdi_for_each_wb() to take memcg IDs instead of blkcg IDs and updating bdi_split_work_to_wbs() accordingly.

2015-08-17inode: rename i_wb_list to i_io_listDave Chinner1-23/+23
There's a small consistency problem between the inode and writeback naming. Writeback calls the "for IO" inode queues b_io and b_more_io, but the inode calls these the "writeback list" or i_wb_list. This makes it hard to an new "under writeback" list to the inode, or call it an "under IO" list on the bdi because either way we'll have writeback on IO and IO on writeback and it'll just be confusing. I'm getting confused just writing this! So, rename the inode "for IO" list variable to i_io_list so we can add a new "writeback list" in a subsequent patch.

2015-08-17sync: serialise per-superblock sync operationsDave Chinner1-0/+11
When competing sync(2) calls walk the same filesystem, they need to walk the list of inodes on the superblock to find all the inodes that we need to wait for IO completion on. However, when multiple wait_sb_inodes() calls do this at the same time, they contend on the the inode_sb_list_lock and the contention causes system wide slowdowns. In effect, concurrent sync(2) calls can take longer and burn more CPU than if they were serialised. Stop the worst of the contention by adding a per-sb mutex to wrap around wait_sb_inodes() so that we only execute one sync(2) IO completion walk per superblock superblock at a time and hence avoid contention being triggered by concurrent sync(2) calls.

2015-08-17writeback: plug writeback at a high levelDave Chinner1-0/+3
Doing writeback on lots of little files causes terrible IOPS storms because of the per-mapping writeback plugging we do. This essentially causes imeediate dispatch of IO for each mapping, regardless of the context in which writeback is occurring. IOWs, running a concurrent write-lots-of-small 4k files using fsmark on XFS results in a huge number of IOPS being issued for data writes. Metadata writes are sorted and plugged at a high level by XFS, so aggregate nicely into large IOs. However, data writeback IOs are dispatched in individual 4k IOs, even when the blocks of two consecutively written files are adjacent. Test VM: 8p, 8GB RAM, 4xSSD in RAID0, 100TB sparse XFS filesystem, metadata CRCs enabled.

2015-06-02writeback: disassociate inodes from dying bdi_writebacksTejun Heo1-0/+7
For the purpose of foreign inode detection, wb's (bdi_writeback's) are identified by the associated memcg ID. As we create a separate wb for each memcg, this is enough to identify the active wb's; however, when blkcg is enabled or disabled higher up in the hierarchy, the mapping between memcg and blkcg changes which in turn creates a new wb to service the new mapping. The old wb is unlinked from index and released after all references are drained. The foreign inode detection logic can't detect this condition because both the old and new wb's point to the same memcg and thus never decides to move inodes attached to the old wb to the new one. This patch adds logic to initiate switching immediately in wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode() if the associated wb is dying. We can make the usual foreign detection logic to distinguish the different wb's mapped to the memcg but the dying wb is never gonna be in active service again and there's no point in tracking the usage history and reaching the switch verdict after enough data points are collected. It's already known that the wb has to be switched.

2015-06-02writeback: implement foreign cgroup inode bdi_writeback switchingTejun Heo1-2/+84
As concurrent write sharing of an inode is expected to be very rare and memcg only tracks page ownership on first-use basis severely confining the usefulness of such sharing, cgroup writeback tracks ownership per-inode. While the support for concurrent write sharing of an inode is deemed unnecessary, an inode being written to by different cgroups at different points in time is a lot more common, and, more importantly, charging only by first-use can too readily lead to grossly incorrect behaviors (single foreign page can lead to gigabytes of writeback to be incorrectly attributed). To resolve this issue, cgroup writeback detects the majority dirtier of an inode and transfers the ownership to it. The previous patches implemented the foreign condition detection mechanism and laid the groundwork. This patch implements the actual switching. With the previously implemented [unlocked_]inode_to_wb_and_list_lock() and wb stat transaction, grabbing wb->list_lock, inode->i_lock and mapping->tree_lock gives us full exclusion against all wb operations on the target inode. inode_switch_wb_work_fn() grabs all the locks and transfers the inode atomically along with its RECLAIMABLE and WRITEBACK stats.

With the previous three patches, all operations which acquire wb from inode are either under one of inode->i_lock, mapping->tree_lock or wb->list_lock or protected by unlocked_inode_to_wb transaction. This will be depended upon by foreign inode wb switching. This patch adds lockdep assertion to inode_to_wb() so that usages outside the above list locks can be caught easily. There are three exceptions. * locked_inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() is holding wb->list_lock but the wb may not be the inode's. Ensuring that is the function's role after all. Updated to deref inode->i_wb directly. * inode_wb_stat_unlocked_begin() is usually protected by combination of !I_WB_SWITCH and rcu_read_lock(). Updated to deref inode->i_wb directly. * inode_congested() wants to test whether inode->i_wb is set before starting the transaction. Added inode_to_wb_is_valid() which tests inode->i_wb directly. v5: might_lock() removed. It annotates that the lock is grabbed w/ irq enabled which isn't the case and triggering lockdep warning spuriously. v4: might_lock() added to unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin(). v3: inode_congested() conversion added. v2: locked_inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() was missing in the first version.

2015-06-02writeback: implement unlocked_inode_to_wb transaction and use it for stat ↵Tejun Heo1-6/+111
updates The mechanism for detecting whether an inode should switch its wb (bdi_writeback) association is now in place. This patch build the framework for the actual switching. This patch adds a new inode flag I_WB_SWITCHING, which has two functions. First, the easy one, it ensures that there's only one switching in progress for a give inode. Second, it's used as a mechanism to synchronize wb stat updates. The two stats, WB_RECLAIMABLE and WB_WRITEBACK, aren't event counters but track the current number of dirty pages and pages under writeback respectively. As such, when an inode is moved from one wb to another, the inode's portion of those stats have to be transferred together; unfortunately, this is a bit tricky as those stat updates are percpu operations which are performed without holding any lock in some places. This patch solves the problem in a similar way as memcg. Each such lockless stat updates are wrapped in transaction surrounded by unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin/end(). During normal operation, they map to rcu_read_lock/unlock(); however, if I_WB_SWITCHING is asserted, mapping->tree_lock is grabbed across the transaction. In turn, the switching path sets I_WB_SWITCHING and waits for a RCU grace period to pass before actually starting to switch, which guarantees that all stat update paths are synchronizing against mapping->tree_lock. This patch still doesn't implement the actual switching. v3: Updated on top of the recent cancel_dirty_page() updates. unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin() now nests inside mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() to match the locking order. v2: The i_wb access transaction will be used for !stat accesses too.

cgroup writeback currently assumes that inode to wb association doesn't change; however, with the planned foreign inode wb switching mechanism, the association will change dynamically. When an inode needs to be put on one of the IO lists of its wb, the current code simply calls inode_to_wb() and locks the returned wb; however, with the planned wb switching, the association may change before locking the wb and may even get released. This patch implements [locked_]inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() which pins the associated wb while holding i_lock, releases it, acquires wb->list_lock and verifies that the association hasn't changed inbetween. As the association will be protected by both locks among other things, this guarantees that the wb is the inode's associated wb until the list_lock is released.

While the support for concurrent write sharing of an inode is deemed unnecessary, an inode being written to by different cgroups at different points in time is a lot more common, and, more importantly, charging only by first-use can too readily lead to grossly incorrect behaviors (single foreign page can lead to gigabytes of writeback to be incorrectly attributed). To resolve this issue, cgroup writeback detects the majority dirtier of an inode and will transfer the ownership to it. To avoid unnnecessary oscillation, the detection mechanism keeps track of history and gives out the switch verdict only if the foreign usage pattern is stable over a certain amount of time and/or writeback attempts. The detection mechanism has fairly low space and computation overhead. It adds 8 bytes to struct inode (one int and two u16's) and minimal amount of calculation per IO. The detection mechanism converges to the correct answer usually in several seconds of IO time when there's a clear majority dirtier. Even when there isn't, it can reach an acceptable answer fairly quickly under most circumstances. Please see wb_detach_inode() for more details. This patch only implements detection. Following patches will implement actual switching. v2: wbc_account_io() now checks whether the wbc is associated with a wb before dereferencing it. This can happen when pageout() is writing pages directly without going through the usual writeback path.

2015-06-02writeback: make writeback_control track the inode being written backTejun Heo1-2/+35
Currently, for cgroup writeback, the IO submission paths directly associate the bio's with the blkcg from inode_to_wb_blkcg_css(); however, it'd be necessary to keep more writeback context to implement foreign inode writeback detection. wbc (writeback_control) is the natural fit for the extra context - it persists throughout the writeback of each inode and is passed all the way down to IO submission paths. This patch adds wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode(), wbc_detach_inode(), and wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode() which are used to associate wbc with the inode being written back. IO submission paths now use wbc_init_bio() instead of directly associating bio's with blkcg themselves. This leaves inode_to_wb_blkcg_css() w/o any user. The function is removed. wbc currently only tracks the associated wb (bdi_writeback). Future patches will add more for foreign inode detection. The association is established under i_lock which will be depended upon when migrating foreign inodes to other wb's. As currently, once established, inode to wb association never changes, going through wbc when initializing bio's doesn't cause any behavior changes. v2: submit_blk_blkcg() now checks whether the wbc is associated with a wb before dereferencing it. This can happen when pageout() is writing pages directly without going through the usual writeback path.
