2010-10-06xfs: properly account for reclaimed inodesJohannes Weiner
When marking an inode reclaimable, a per-AG counter is increased, the inode is tagged reclaimable in its per-AG tree, and, when this is the first reclaimable inode in the AG, the AG entry in the per-mount tree is also tagged. When an inode is finally reclaimed, however, it is only deleted from the per-AG tree. Neither the counter is decreased, nor is the parent tree's AG entry untagged properly. Since the tags in the per-mount tree are not cleared, the inode shrinker iterates over all AGs that have had reclaimable inodes at one point in time. The counters on the other hand signal an increasing amount of slab objects to reclaim. Since "70e60ce xfs: convert inode shrinker to per-filesystem context" this is not a real issue anymore because the shrinker bails out after one iteration. But the problem was observable on a machine running v2.6.34, where the reclaimable work increased and each process going into direct reclaim eventually got stuck on the xfs inode shrinking path, trying to scan several million objects. Fix this by properly unwinding the reclaimable-state tracking of an inode when it is reclaimed.

2010-09-10xfs: log IO completion workqueue is a high priority queueDave Chinner
The workqueue implementation in 2.6.36-rcX has changed, resulting in the workqueues no longer having dedicated threads for work processing. This has caused severe livelocks under heavy parallel create workloads because the log IO completions have been getting held up behind metadata IO completions. Hence log commits would stall, memory allocation would stall because pages could not be cleaned, and lock contention on the AIL during inode IO completion processing was being seen to slow everything down even further. By making the log Io completion workqueue a high priority workqueue, they are queued ahead of all data/metadata IO completions and processed before the data/metadata completions. Hence the log never gets stalled, and operations needed to clean memory can continue as quickly as possible. This avoids the livelock conditions and allos the system to keep running under heavy load as per normal.

2010-09-03xfs: Make fiemap work with sparse filesTao Ma
In xfs_vn_fiemap, we set bvm_count to fi_extent_max + 1 and want to return fi_extent_max extents, but actually it won't work for a sparse file. The reason is that in xfs_getbmap we will calculate holes and set it in 'out', while out is malloced by bmv_count(fi_extent_max+1) which didn't consider holes. So in the worst case, if 'out' vector looks like [hole, extent, hole, extent, hole, ... hole, extent, hole], we will only return half of fi_extent_max extents. This patch add a new parameter BMV_IF_NO_HOLES for bvm_iflags. So with this flags, we don't use our 'out' in xfs_getbmap for a hole. The solution is a bit ugly by just don't increasing index of 'out' vector. I felt that it is not easy to skip it at the very beginning since we have the complicated check and some function like xfs_getbmapx_fix_eof_hole to adjust 'out'.

2010-09-02xfs: improve buffer cache hash scalabilityDave Chinner
When doing large parallel file creates on a 16p machines, large amounts of time is being spent in _xfs_buf_find(). A system wide profile with perf top shows this: 1134740.00 19.3% _xfs_buf_find 733142.00 12.5% __ticket_spin_lock The problem is that the hash contains 45,000 buffers, and the hash table width is only 256 buffers. That means we've got around 200 buffers per chain, and searching it is quite expensive. The hash table size needs to increase. Secondly, every time we do a lookup, we promote the buffer we find to the head of the hash chain. This is causing cachelines to be dirtied and causes invalidation of cachelines across all CPUs that may have walked the hash chain recently. hence every walk of the hash chain is effectively a cold cache walk. Remove the promotion to avoid this invalidation. The results are: 1045043.00 21.2% __ticket_spin_lock 326184.00 6.6% _xfs_buf_find A 70% drop in the CPU usage when looking up buffers. Unfortunately that does not result in an increase in performance underthis workload as contention on the inode_lock soaks up most of the reduction in CPU usage.

2010-08-24xfs: dummy transactions should not dirty VFS stateDave Chinner
When we need to cover the log, we issue dummy transactions to ensure the current log tail is on disk. Unfortunately we currently use the root inode in the dummy transaction, and the act of committing the transaction dirties the inode at the VFS level. As a result, the VFS writeback of the dirty inode will prevent the filesystem from idling long enough for the log covering state machine to complete. The state machine gets stuck in a loop issuing new dummy transactions to cover the log and never makes progress. To avoid this problem, the dummy transactions should not cause externally visible state changes. To ensure this occurs, make sure that dummy transactions log an unchanging field in the superblock as it's state is never propagated outside the filesystem. This allows the log covering state machine to complete successfully and the filesystem now correctly enters a fully idle state about 90s after the last modification was made.

2010-08-24xfs: ensure f_ffree returned by statfs() is non-negativeStuart Brodsky
Because of delayed updates to sb_icount field in the super block, it is possible to allocate over maxicount number of inodes. This causes the arithmetic to calculate a negative number of free inodes in user commands like df or stat -f. Since maxicount is a somewhat arbitrary number, a slight over allocation is not critical but user commands should be displayed as 0 or greater and never go negative. To do this the value in the stats buffer f_ffree is capped to never go negative.

2010-08-24xfs: handle negative wbc->nr_to_write during sync writebackDave Chinner
During data integrity (WB_SYNC_ALL) writeback, wbc->nr_to_write will go negative on inodes with more than 1024 dirty pages due to implementation details of write_cache_pages(). Currently XFS will abort page clustering in writeback once nr_to_write drops below zero, and so for data integrity writeback we will do very inefficient page at a time allocation and IO submission for inodes with large numbers of dirty pages. Fix this by only aborting the page clustering code when wbc->nr_to_write is negative and the sync mode is WB_SYNC_NONE.

I_CLEAR and I_FREEING never get set at the same time with the current code, so we can switch to setting i_flags to I_FREEING | I_CLEAR instead of I_CLEAR without loss of information.

2010-08-09xfs: new truncate sequenceChristoph Hellwig
Convert XFS to the new truncate sequence. We still can have errors after updating the file size in xfs_setattr, but these are real I/O errors and lead to a transaction abort and filesystem shutdown, so they are not an issue. Errors from ->write_begin and write_end can now be handled correctly because we can actually get rid of the delalloc extents while previous the buffer state was stipped in block_invalidatepage. There is still no error handling for ->direct_IO, because doing so will need some major restructuring given that we only have the iolock shared and do not hold i_mutex at all. Fortunately leaving the normally allocated blocks behind there is not a major issue and this will get cleaned up by xfs_free_eofblock later. Note: the patch is against Al's vfs.git tree as that contains the nessecary preparations. I'd prefer to get it applied there so that we can get some testing in linux-next.

Our current handling of direct I/O completions is rather suboptimal, because we defer it to a workqueue more often than needed, and we perform a much to aggressive flush of the workqueue in case unwritten extent conversions happen. This patch changes the direct I/O reads to not even use a completion handler, as we don't bother to use it at all, and to perform the unwritten extent conversions in caller context for synchronous direct I/O. For a small I/O size direct I/O workload on a consumer grade SSD, such as the untar of a kernel tree inside qemu this patch gives speedups of about 5%.

2010-07-26xfs: move aio completion after unwritten extent conversionChristoph Hellwig

Without that a read could race to see see the extent still unwritten and return zeros. For synchronous I/O we already take care of that by flushing the xfsconvertd workqueue (which might be a bit of overkill). To do that add iocb and result fields to struct xfs_ioend, so that we can call aio_complete from xfs_end_io after the extent conversion has happened. Note that we need a new result field as io_error is used for positive errno values, while the AIO code can return negative error values and positive transfer sizes.

2010-07-26xfs: kill the b_strat callback in xfs_bufChristoph Hellwig
The b_strat callback is used by xfs_buf_iostrategy to perform additional checks before submitting a buffer. It is used in xfs_bwrite and when writing out delayed buffers. In xfs_bwrite it we can de-virtualize the call easily as b_strat is set a few lines above the call to xfs_buf_iostrategy. For the delayed buffers the rationale is a bit more complicated: - there are three callers of xfs_buf_delwri_queue, which places buffers on the delwri list: (1) xfs_bdwrite - this sets up b_strat, so it's fine (2) xfs_buf_iorequest. None of the callers can have XBF_DELWRI set: - xlog_bdstrat is only used for log buffers, which are never delwri - _xfs_buf_read explicitly clears the delwri flag - xfs_buf_iodone_work retries log buffers only - xfsbdstrat - only used for reads, superblock writes without the delwri flag, log I/O and file zeroing with explicitly allocated buffers. - xfs_buf_iostrategy - only calls xfs_buf_iorequest if b_strat is not set (3) xfs_buf_unlock - only puts the buffer on the delwri list if the DELWRI flag is already set. The DELWRI flag is only ever set in xfs_bwrite, xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks, or xfs_trans_log_buf. For xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks and xfs_trans_log_buf we require an initialized buf item, which means b_strat was set to xfs_bdstrat_cb in xfs_buf_item_init. Conclusion: we can just get rid of the callback and replace it with explicit calls to xfs_bdstrat_cb.

2010-07-26xfs: simplify xfs_vm_writepageChristoph Hellwig
The writepage implementation in XFS still tries to deal with dirty but unmapped buffers which used to caused by writes through shared mmaps. Since the introduction of ->page_mkwrite these can't happen anymore, so remove the code dealing with them. Note that the all_bh variable which causes us to start I/O on all buffers on the pages was controlled by the count of unmapped buffers, which also included those not actually dirty. It's now unconditionally initialized to 0 but set to 1 for the case of small file size extensions. It probably can be removed entirely, but that's left for another patch.

2010-07-26xfs: simplify xfs_vm_releasepageChristoph Hellwig
Currently the xfs releasepage implementation has code to deal with converting delayed allocated and unwritten space. But we never get called for those as we always convert delayed and unwritten space when cleaning a page, or drop the state from the buffers in block_invalidatepage. We still keep a WARN_ON on those cases for now, but remove all the case dealing with it, which allows to fold xfs_page_state_convert into xfs_vm_writepage and remove the !startio case from the whole writeback path.

2010-07-26xfs: fix corruption case for block size < page sizeEric Sandeen
xfstests 194 first truncats a file back and then extends it again by truncating it to a larger size. This causes discard_buffer to drop the mapped, but not the uptodate bit and thus creates something that xfs_page_state_convert takes for unmapped space created by mmap because it doesn't check for the dirty bit, which also gets cleared by discard_buffer and checked by other ->writepage implementations like block_write_full_page. Handle this kind of buffers early, and unlike Eric's first version of the patch simply ASSERT that the buffers is dirty, given that the mmap write case can't happen anymore since the introduction of ->page_mkwrite. The now dead code dealing with that will be deleted in a follow on patch.

2010-07-26xfs: simplify inode to transaction joiningChristoph Hellwig
Currently we need to either call IHOLD or xfs_trans_ihold on an inode when joining it to a transaction via xfs_trans_ijoin. This patches instead makes xfs_trans_ijoin usable on it's own by doing an implicity xfs_trans_ihold, which also allows us to drop the third argument. For the case where we want to hold a reference on the inode a xfs_trans_ijoin_ref wrapper is added which does the IHOLD and marks the inode for needing an xfs_iput. In addition to the cleaner interface to the caller this also simplifies the implementation. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Get rid of the xfs_buf_pin/xfs_buf_unpin/xfs_buf_ispin helpers and opencode them in their only callers, just like we did for the inode pinning a while ago. Also remove duplicate trace points - the bufitem tracepoints cover all the information that is present in a buffer tracepoint.

2010-07-26xfs: simplify log item descriptor trackingChristoph Hellwig
Currently we track log item descriptor belonging to a transaction using a complex opencoded chunk allocator. This code has been there since day one and seems to work around the lack of an efficient slab allocator. This patch replaces it with dynamically allocated log item descriptors from a dedicated slab pool, linked to the transaction by a linked list. This allows to greatly simplify the log item descriptor tracking to the point where it's just a couple hundred lines in xfs_trans.c instead of a separate file. The external API has also been simplified while we're at it - the xfs_trans_add_item and xfs_trans_del_item functions to add/ delete items from a transaction have been simplified to the bare minium, and the xfs_trans_find_item function is replaced with a direct dereference of the li_desc field. All debug code walking the list of log items in a transaction is down to a simple list_for_each_entry. Note that we could easily use a singly linked list here instead of the double linked list from list.h as the fastpath only does deletion from sequential traversal. But given that we don't have one available as a library function yet I use the list.h functions for simplicity.

Dmapi support was never merged upstream, but we still have a lot of hooks bloating XFS for it, all over the fast pathes of the filesystem. This patch drops over 700 lines of dmapi overhead. If we'll ever get HSM support in mainline at least the namespace events can be done much saner in the VFS instead of the individual filesystem, so it's not like this is much help for future work.

2010-07-20xfs: track AGs with reclaimable inodes in per-ag radix treeDave Chinner
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16348 When the filesystem grows to a large number of allocation groups, the summing of recalimable inodes gets expensive. In many cases, most AGs won't have any reclaimable inodes and so we are wasting CPU time aggregating over these AGs. This is particularly important for the inode shrinker that gets called frequently under memory pressure. To avoid the overhead, track AGs with reclaimable inodes in the per-ag radix tree so that we can find all the AGs with reclaimable inodes via a simple gang tag lookup. This involves setting the tag when the first reclaimable inode is tracked in the AG, and removing the tag when the last reclaimable inode is removed from the tree. Then the summation process becomes a loop walking the radix tree summing AGs with the reclaim tag set. This significantly reduces the overhead of scanning - a 6400 AG filesystea now only uses about 25% of a cpu in kswapd while slab reclaim progresses instead of being permanently stuck at 100% CPU and making little progress. Clean filesystems filesystems will see no overhead and the overhead only increases linearly with the number of dirty AGs.
