2013-03-12ext4: use s_extent_max_zeroout_kb value as number of kbLukas Czerner1-1/+1
Currently when converting extent to initialized, we have to decide whether to zeroout part/all of the uninitialized extent in order to avoid extent tree growing rapidly. The decision is made by comparing the size of the extent with the configurable value s_extent_max_zeroout_kb which is in kibibytes units. However when converting it to number of blocks we currently use it as it was in bytes. This is obviously bug and it will result in ext4 _never_ zeroout extents, but rather always split and convert parts to initialized while leaving the rest uninitialized in default setting. Fix this by using s_extent_max_zeroout_kb as kibibytes. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
2013-03-10ext4: update reserved space after the 'correction'Lukas Czerner1-3/+9
Currently in ext4_ext_map_blocks() in delayed allocation writeback we would update the reservation and after that check whether we claimed cluster outside of the range of the allocation and if so, we'll give the block back to the reservation pool. However this also means that if the number of reserved data block dropped to zero before the correction, we would release all the metadata reservation as well, however we might still need it because the we're not done with the delayed allocation and there might be more blocks to come. This will result in error messages such as: EXT4-fs warning (device sdb): ext4_da_update_reserve_space:361: ino 12, allocated 1 with only 0 reserved metadata blocks (releasing 1 blocks with reserved 1 data blocks) This will only happen on bigalloc file system and it can be easily reproduced using fiemap-tester from xfstests like this: ./src/fiemap-tester -m DHDHDHDHD -S -p0 /mnt/test/file Or using xfstests such as 225. Fix this by doing the correction first and updating the reservation after that so that we do not accidentally decrease i_reserved_data_blocks to zero.

2013-03-10ext4: fix the wrong number of the allocated blocks in ext4_split_extent()Zheng Liu1-1/+5
This commit fixes a wrong return value of the number of the allocated blocks in ext4_split_extent. When the length of blocks we want to allocate is greater than the length of the current extent, we return a wrong number. Let's see what happens in the following case when we call ext4_split_extent(). map: [48, 72] ex: [32, 64, u] 'ex' will be split into two parts: ex1: [32, 47, u] ex2: [48, 64, w] 'map->m_len' is returned from this function, and the value is 24. But the real length is 16. So it should be fixed. Meanwhile in this commit we use right length of the allocated blocks when get_reserved_cluster_alloc in ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents is called.

2013-03-10ext4: update extent status tree after an extent is zeroed outZheng Liu1-4/+31
When we try to split an extent, this extent could be zeroed out and mark as initialized. But we don't know this in ext4_map_blocks because it only returns a length of allocated extent. Meanwhile we will mark this extent as uninitialized because we only check m_flags. This commit update extent status tree when we try to split an unwritten extent. We don't need to worry about the status of this extent because we always mark it as initialized.

2013-03-10ext4: fix wrong m_len value after unwritten extent conversionZheng Liu1-0/+4
The ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents() function was assuming the return value of ext4_ext_map_blocks() is equal to map->m_len. This incorrect assumption was harmless until we started use status tree as a extent cache because we need to update status tree according to 'm_len' value. Meanwhile this commit marks EXT4_MAP_MAPPED flag after unwritten extent conversion. It shouldn't cause a bug because we update status tree according to checking EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN flag. But it should be fixed.

2013-03-04ext4: disable merging of uninitialized extentsDmitry Monakhov1-3/+5
Derived from Jan's patch:http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ext4/36470 Merging of uninitialized extents creates all sorts of interesting race possibilities when writeback / DIO races with fallocate. Thus ext4_convert_unwritten_extents_endio() has to deal with a case where extent to be converted needs to be split out first. That isn't nice for two reasons: 1) It may need allocation of extent tree block so ENOSPC is possible. 2) It complicates end_io handling code So we disable merging of uninitialized extents which allows us to simplify the code. Extents will get merged after they are converted to initialized ones.

2013-03-04ext4: ext4_split_extent should take care of extent zerooutDmitry Monakhov1-6/+17
When ext4_split_extent_at() ends up doing zeroout & conversion to initialized instead of split & conversion, ext4_split_extent() gets confused and can wrongly mark the extent back as uninitialized resulting in end IO code getting confused from large unwritten extents and may result in data loss. The example of problematic behavior is: lblk len lblk len ext4_split_extent() (ex=[1000,30,uninit], map=[1010,10]) ext4_split_extent_at() (split [1000,30,uninit] at 1020) ext4_ext_insert_extent() -> ENOSPC ext4_ext_zeroout() -> extent [1000,30] is now initialized ext4_split_extent_at() (split [1000,30,init] at 1010, MARK_UNINIT1 | MARK_UNINIT2) -> extent is split and parts marked as uninitialized Fix the problem by rechecking extent type after the first ext4_split_extent_at() returns. None of split_flags can not be applied to initialized extent so this patch also add BUG_ON to prevent similar issues in future.

2013-02-18ext4: lookup block mapping in extent status treeZheng Liu1-1/+8
After tracking all extent status, we already have a extent cache in memory. Every time we want to lookup a block mapping, we can first try to lookup it in extent status tree to avoid a potential disk I/O. A new function called ext4_es_lookup_extent is defined to finish this work. When we try to lookup a block mapping, we always call ext4_map_blocks and/or ext4_da_map_blocks. So in these functions we first try to lookup a block mapping in extent status tree. A new flag EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_PUT_HOLE is used in ext4_da_map_blocks in order not to put a hole into extent status tree because this hole will be converted to delayed extent in the tree immediately.

2013-02-18ext4: track all extent status in extent status treeZheng Liu1-5/+15
By recording the phycisal block and status, extent status tree is able to track the status of every extents. When we call _map_blocks functions to lookup an extent or create a new written/unwritten/delayed extent, this extent will be inserted into extent status tree. We don't load all extents from disk in alloc_inode() because it costs too much memory, and if a file is opened and closed frequently it will takes too much time to load all extent information. So currently when we create/lookup an extent, this extent will be inserted into extent status tree. Hence, the extent status tree may not comprehensively contain all of the extents found in the file. Here a condition we need to take care is that an extent might contains unwritten and delayed status simultaneously because an extent is delayed allocated and could be allocated by fallocate. At this time we need to keep delayed status because later we need to update delayed reservation space using it.

2013-02-08ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start()Theodore Ts'o1-5/+6
So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass context information for logging purposes. The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is: T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter echo 1 > $EVENT/enable ./run-my-fs-benchmark cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms. Having longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an fsync() or an O_SYNC operation. Here is an example line from the trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over 1.2 seconds: postmark-2917 [000] .... 196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32 tid 570 type 2 line_no 2541 interval 311 sync 0 requested_blocks 1 dirtied_blocks 0 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

This patch add supports for indirect file support punching hole. It is almost the same as ext4_ext_punch_hole. First, we invalidate all pages between this hole, and then we try to deallocate all blocks of this hole. A recursive function is used to handle deallocation of blocks. In this function, it iterates over the entries in inode's i_blocks or indirect blocks, and try to free the block for each one of them. After applying this patch, xfstest #255 will not pass w/o extent because indirect-based file doesn't support unwritten extents.

2012-11-28ext4: rationalize ext4_extents.h inclusionTheodore Ts'o1-0/+1
Previously, ext4_extents.h was being included at the end of ext4.h, which was bad for a number of reasons: (a) it was not being included in the expected place, and (b) it caused the header to be included multiple times. There were #ifdef's to prevent this from causing any problems, but it still was unnecessary. By moving the function declarations that were in ext4_extents.h to ext4.h, which is standard practice for where the function declarations for the rest of ext4.h can be found, we can remove ext4_extents.h from being included in ext4.h at all, and then we can only include ext4_extents.h where it is needed in ext4's source files. It should be possible to move a few more things into ext4.h, and further reduce the number of source files that need to #include ext4_extents.h, but that's a cleanup for another day.

2012-11-28ext4: prevent race while walking extent tree for fiemapLukas Czerner1-60/+76
Currently ext4_ext_walk_space() only takes i_data_sem for read when searching for the extent at given block with ext4_ext_find_extent(). Then it drops the lock and the extent tree can be changed at will. However later on we're searching for the 'next' extent, but the extent tree might already have changed, so the information might not be accurate. In fact we can hit BUG_ON(end <= start) if the extent got inserted into the tree after the one we found and before the block we were searching for. This has been reproduced by running xfstests 225 in loop on s390x architecture, but theoretically we could hit this on any other architecture as well, but probably not as often. Moreover the extent currently in delayed allocation might be allocated after we search the extent tree and before we search extent status tree delayed buffers resulting in those delayed buffers being completely missed, even though completely written and allocated. We fix all those problems in several steps: 1. remove unnecessary callback indirection 2. rename functions ext4_ext_walk_space -> ext4_fill_fiemap_extents ext4_ext_fiemap_cb -> ext4_find_delayed_extent 3. move fiemap_fill_next_extent() into ext4_fill_fiemap_extents() 4. hold the i_data_sem for: ext4_ext_find_extent() ext4_ext_next_allocated_block() ext4_find_delayed_extent() 5. call fiemap_fill_next_extent after releasing the i_data_sem 6. move path reinitialization into the critical section.

My diagnosis: We already protect extent tree with i_data_sem, truncate and punch_hole should wait for DIO, so the only data we have to protect is end_io->flags modification, but only flush_completed_IO and end_io_work modified this flags and we can serialize them via i_completed_io_lock. Currently all these games with mutex_trylock result in the following deadlock truncate: kworker: ext4_setattr ext4_end_io_work mutex_lock(i_mutex) inode_dio_wait(inode) ->BLOCK DEADLOCK<- mutex_trylock() inode_dio_done() #TEST_CASE1_BEGIN MNT=/mnt_scrach unlink $MNT/file fallocate -l $((1024*1024*1024)) $MNT/file aio-stress -I 100000 -O -s 100m -n -t 1 -c 10 -o 2 -o 3 $MNT/file sleep 2 truncate -s 0 $MNT/file #TEST_CASE1_END Or use 286's xfstests https://github.com/dmonakhov/xfstests/blob/devel/286 This patch makes state machine simple and clean: (1) xxx_end_io schedule final extent conversion simply by calling ext4_add_complete_io(), which append it to ei->i_completed_io_list NOTE1: because of (2A) work should be queued only if ->i_completed_io_list was empty, otherwise the work is scheduled already. (2) ext4_flush_completed_IO is responsible for handling all pending end_io from ei->i_completed_io_list Flushing sequence consists of following stages: A) LOCKED: Atomically drain completed_io_list to local_list B) Perform extents conversion C) LOCKED: move converted io's to to_free list for final deletion This logic depends on context which we was called from. D) Final end_io context destruction NOTE1: i_mutex is no longer required because end_io->flags modification is protected by ei->ext4_complete_io_lock Full list of changes: - Move all completion end_io related routines to page-io.c in order to improve logic locality - Move open coded logic from various xx_end_xx routines to ext4_add_complete_io() - remove EXT4_IO_END_FSYNC - Improve SMP scalability by removing useless i_mutex which does not protect io->flags anymore. - Reduce lock contention on i_completed_io_lock by optimizing list walk. - Rename ext4_end_io_nolock to end4_end_io and make it static - Check flush completion status to ext4_ext_punch_hole(). Because it is not good idea to punch blocks from corrupted inode. Changes since V3 (in request to Jan's comments): Fall back to active flush_completed_IO() approach in order to prevent performance issues with nolocked DIO reads.

2012-09-28ext4: fix unwritten counter leakageDmitry Monakhov1-7/+14
ext4_set_io_unwritten_flag() will increment i_unwritten counter, so once we mark end_io with EXT4_END_IO_UNWRITTEN we have to revert it back on error path. - add missed error checks to prevent counter leakage - ext4_end_io_nolock() will clear EXT4_END_IO_UNWRITTEN flag to signal that conversion finished. - add BUG_ON to ext4_free_end_io() to prevent similar leakage in future.

2012-09-19ext4: speed up truncate/unlink by not using bforget() unless neededAndrey Sidorov1-2/+5
Do not iterate over data blocks scanning for bh's to forget as they're never exist. This improves time taken by unlink / truncate syscall. Tested by continuously truncating file that is being written by dd. Another test is rm -rf of linux tree while tar unpacks it. With ordered data mode condition unlikely(!tbh) was always met in ext4_free_blocks. With journal data mode tbh was found only few times, so optimisation is also possible.

2012-08-17ext4: make the zero-out chunk size tunableZheng Liu1-12/+13
Currently in ext4 the length of zero-out chunk is set to 7 file system blocks. But if an inode has uninitailized extents from using fallocate to preallocate space, and the workload issues many random writes, this can cause a fragmented extent tree that will unnecessarily grow the extent tree. So create a new sysfs tunable, extent_max_zeroout_kb, which controls the maximum size where blocks will be zeroed out instead of creating a new uninitialized extent. The default of this has been sent to 32kb.

2012-08-17ext4: collapse a single extent tree block into the inode if possibleTheodore Ts'o1-14/+58
If an inode has more than 4 extents, but then later some of the extents are merged together, we can optimize the file system by moving the extents up into the inode, and discarding the extent tree block. This is important, because if there are a large number of inodes with an external extent tree blocks where the contents could fit in the inode, this can significantly increase the fsck time of the file system.

Commit 968dee7722: "ext4: fix hole punch failure when depth is greater than 0" introduced a regression in v3.5.1/v3.6-rc1 which caused kernel crashes when users ran run "rm -rf" on large directory hierarchy on ext4 filesystems on RAID devices: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 Process rm (pid: 18229, threadinfo ffff8801276bc000, task ffff880123631710) Call Trace: [<ffffffff81236483>] ? __ext4_handle_dirty_metadata+0x83/0x110 [<ffffffff812353d3>] ext4_ext_truncate+0x193/0x1d0 [<ffffffff8120a8cf>] ? ext4_mark_inode_dirty+0x7f/0x1f0 [<ffffffff81207e05>] ext4_truncate+0xf5/0x100 [<ffffffff8120cd51>] ext4_evict_inode+0x461/0x490 [<ffffffff811a1312>] evict+0xa2/0x1a0 [<ffffffff811a1513>] iput+0x103/0x1f0 [<ffffffff81196d84>] do_unlinkat+0x154/0x1c0 [<ffffffff8118cc3a>] ? sys_newfstatat+0x2a/0x40 [<ffffffff81197b0b>] sys_unlinkat+0x1b/0x50 [<ffffffff816135e9>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Code: 8b 4d 20 0f b7 41 02 48 8d 04 40 48 8d 04 81 49 89 45 18 0f b7 49 02 48 83 c1 01 49 89 4d 00 e9 ae f8 ff ff 0f 1f 00 49 8b 45 28 <48> 8b 40 28 49 89 45 20 e9 85 f8 ff ff 0f 1f 80 00 00 00 RIP [<ffffffff81233164>] ext4_ext_remove_space+0xa34/0xdf0 This could be reproduced as follows: The problem in commit 968dee7722 was that caused the variable 'i' to be left uninitialized if the truncate required more space than was available in the journal. This resulted in the function ext4_ext_truncate_extend_restart() returning -EAGAIN, which caused ext4_ext_remove_space() to restart the truncate operation after starting a new jbd2 handle.
