2012-05-14xfs: move xfsagino_t to xfs_types.hDave Chinner
Untangle the header file includes a bit by moving the definition of xfs_agino_t to xfs_types.h. This removes the dependency that xfs_ag.h has on xfs_inum.h, meaning we don't need to include xfs_inum.h everywhere we include xfs_ag.h.

2012-05-14xfs: use blocks for storing the desired IO sizeDave Chinner
Now that we pass block counts everywhere, and index buffers by block number and length in units of blocks, convert the desired IO size into block counts rather than bytes. Convert the code to use block counts, and those that need byte counts get converted at the time of use. Rename the b_desired_count variable to something closer to it's purpose - b_io_length - as it is only used to specify the length of an IO for a subset of the buffer. The only time this is used is for log IO - both writing iclogs and during log recovery. In all other cases, the b_io_length matches b_length, and hence a lot of code confuses the two. e.g. the buf item code uses the io count exclusively when it should be using the buffer length. Fix these apprpriately as they are found. Also, remove the XFS_BUF_{SET_}COUNT() macros that are just wrappers around the desired IO length. They only serve to make the code shouty loud, don't actually add any real value, and are often used incorrectly.

2012-05-14xfs: on-stack delayed write buffer listsChristoph Hellwig
Queue delwri buffers on a local on-stack list instead of a per-buftarg one, and write back the buffers per-process instead of by waking up xfsbufd. This is now easily doable given that we have very few places left that write delwri buffers: - log recovery: Only done at mount time, and already forcing out the buffers synchronously using xfs_flush_buftarg - quotacheck: Same story. - dquot reclaim: Writes out dirty dquots on the LRU under memory pressure. We might want to look into doing more of this via xfsaild, but it's already more optimal than the synchronous inode reclaim that writes each buffer synchronously. - xfsaild: This is the main beneficiary of the change. By keeping a local list of buffers to write we reduce latency of writing out buffers, and more importably we can remove all the delwri list promotions which were hitting the buffer cache hard under sustained metadata loads. The implementation is very straight forward - xfs_buf_delwri_queue now gets a new list_head pointer that it adds the delwri buffers to, and all callers need to eventually submit the list using xfs_buf_delwi_submit or xfs_buf_delwi_submit_nowait. Buffers that already are on a delwri list are skipped in xfs_buf_delwri_queue, assuming they already are on another delwri list. The biggest change to pass down the buffer list was done to the AIL pushing. Now that we operate on buffers the trylock, push and pushbuf log item methods are merged into a single push routine, which tries to lock the item, and if possible add the buffer that needs writeback to the buffer list. This leads to much simpler code than the previous split but requires the individual IOP_PUSH instances to unlock and reacquire the AIL around calls to blocking routines. Given that xfsailds now also handle writing out buffers, the conditions for log forcing and the sleep times needed some small changes. The most important one is that we consider an AIL busy as long we still have buffers to push, and the other one is that we do increment the pushed LSN for buffers that are under flushing at this moment, but still count them towards the stuck items for restart purposes. Without this we could hammer on stuck items without ever forcing the log and not make progress under heavy random delete workloads on fast flash storage devices.

2012-05-14xfs: do not add buffers to the delwri queue until pushedChristoph Hellwig
Instead of adding buffers to the delwri list as soon as they are logged, even if they can't be written until commited because they are pinned defer adding them to the delwri list until xfsaild pushes them. This makes the code more similar to other log items and prepares for writing buffers directly from xfsaild. The complication here is that we need to fail buffers that were added but not logged yet in xfs_buf_item_unpin, borrowing code from xfs_bioerror.

This means that the EFI item is never freed if it was in the push being cancelled. The problem is specific to delayed logging, but has uncovered a couple of problems with the handling of IOP_UNPIN(remove). Firstly, we cannot safely call xfs_trans_del_item() from IOP_UNPIN() in the CIL commit failure path or the iclog write failure path because for delayed loging we have no transaction context. Hence we must only call xfs_trans_del_item() if the log item being unpinned has an active log item descriptor. Secondly, xfs_trans_uncommit() does not handle log item descriptor freeing during the traversal of log items on a transaction. It can reference a freed log item descriptor when unpinning an EFI item. Hence it needs to use a safe list traversal method to allow items to be removed from the transaction during IOP_UNPIN().

2011-01-11xfs: fix error handling for synchronous writesChristoph Hellwig
If we get an IO error on a synchronous superblock write, we attach an error release function to it so that when the last reference goes away the release function is called and the buffer is invalidated and unlocked. The buffer is left locked until the release function is called so that other concurrent users of the buffer will be locked out until the buffer error is fully processed. Unfortunately, for the superblock buffer the filesyetm itself holds a reference to the buffer which prevents the reference count from dropping to zero and the release function being called. As a result, once an IO error occurs on a sync write, the buffer will never be unlocked and all future attempts to lock the buffer will hang. To make matters worse, this problems is not unique to such buffers; if there is a concurrent _xfs_buf_find() running, the lookup will grab a reference to the buffer and then wait on the buffer lock, preventing the reference count from ever falling to zero and hence unlocking the buffer. As such, the whole b_relse function implementation is broken because it cannot rely on the buffer reference count falling to zero to unlock the errored buffer. The synchronous write error path is the only path that uses this callback - it is used to ensure that the synchronous waiter gets the buffer error before the error state is cleared from the buffer by the release function. Given that the only sychronous buffer writes now go through xfs_bwrite and the error path in question can only occur for a write of a dirty, logged buffer, we can move most of the b_relse processing to happen inline in xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks, just like a normal I/O completion. In addition to that we make sure the error is not cleared in xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks, so that xfs_bwrite can reliably check it. Given that xfs_bwrite keeps the buffer locked until it has waited for it and checked the error this allows to reliably propagate the error to the caller, and make sure that the buffer is reliably unlocked. Given that xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks was the only instance of the b_relse callback we can remove it entirely. Based on earlier patches by Dave Chinner and Ajeet Yadav.

The means the item list walk is never dependent on knowing the next item on the list and hence allows callbacks to remove items from the list as well. This allows callbacks to do bulk operations by scanning the list for identical callbacks, consuming them all and then processing them in bulk, negating the need for multiple callbacks of that type.

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 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.

2010-05-24xfs: Ensure inode allocation buffers are fully replayedDave Chinner
With delayed logging, we can get inode allocation buffers in the same transaction inode unlink buffers. We don't currently mark inode allocation buffers in the log, so inode unlink buffers take precedence over allocation buffers. The result is that when they are combined into the same checkpoint, only the unlinked inode chain fields are replayed, resulting in uninitialised inode buffers being detected when the next inode modification is replayed. To fix this, we need to ensure that we do not set the inode buffer flag in the buffer log item format flags if the inode allocation has not already hit the log. To avoid requiring a change to log recovery, we really need to make this a modification that relies only on in-memory sate. We can do this by checking during buffer log formatting (while the CIL cannot be flushed) if we are still in the same sequence when we commit the unlink transaction as the inode allocation transaction. If we are, then we do not add the inode buffer flag to the buffer log format item flags. This means the entire buffer will be replayed, not just the unlinked fields. We do this while CIL flusheѕ are locked out to ensure that we don't race with the sequence numbers changing and hence fail to put the inode buffer flag in the buffer format flags when we really need to.

They XFS_BLI_ prefix is used for both in-memory and on-disk flag feilds, but have overlapping values for different flags. Rename the buffer log format flags to use the XFS_BLF_* prefix to avoid confusing them with the in-memory XFS_BLI_* prefixed flags.

2010-05-24xfs: modify buffer item reference countingDave Chinner
The buffer log item reference counts used to take referenceѕ for every transaction, similar to the pin counting. This is symmetric (like the pin/unpin) with respect to transaction completion, but with dleayed logging becomes assymetric as the pinning becomes assymetric w.r.t. transaction completion. To make both cases the same, allow the buffer pinning to take a reference to the buffer log item and always drop the reference the transaction has on it when being unlocked. This is balanced correctly because the unpin operation always drops a reference to the log item. Hence reference counting becomes symmetric w.r.t. item pinning as well as w.r.t active transactions and as a result the reference counting model remain consistent between normal and delayed logging.

2010-05-19xfs: remove stale parameter from ->iop_unpin methodDave Chinner
The staleness of a object being unpinned can be directly derived from the object itself - there is no need to extract it from the object then pass it as a parameter into IOP_UNPIN(). This means we can kill the XFS_LID_BUF_STALE flag - it is set, checked and cleared in the same places XFS_BLI_STALE flag in the xfs_buf_log_item so it is now redundant and hence safe to remove.

2010-05-19xfs: factor log item initialisationDave Chinner
Each log item type does manual initialisation of the log item. Delayed logging introduces new fields that need initialisation, so factor all the open coded initialisation into a common function first. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
2010-02-02xfs: Don't issue buffer IO direct from AIL push V2Dave Chinner
All buffers logged into the AIL are marked as delayed write. When the AIL needs to push the buffer out, it issues an async write of the buffer. This means that IO patterns are dependent on the order of buffers in the AIL. Instead of flushing the buffer, promote the buffer in the delayed write list so that the next time the xfsbufd is run the buffer will be flushed by the xfsbufd. Return the state to the xfsaild that the buffer was promoted so that the xfsaild knows that it needs to cause the xfsbufd to run to flush the buffers that were promoted. Using the xfsbufd for issuing the IO allows us to dispatch all buffer IO from the one queue. This means that we can make much more enlightened decisions on what order to flush buffers to disk as we don't have multiple places issuing IO. Optimisations to xfsbufd will be in a future patch. Version 2 - kill XFS_ITEM_FLUSHING as it is now unused. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

2009-12-14xfs: event tracing supportChristoph Hellwig
Convert the old xfs tracing support that could only be used with the out of tree kdb and xfsidbg patches to use the generic event tracer. To use it make sure CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is enabled and then enable all xfs trace channels by: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/enable or alternatively enable single events by just doing the same in one event subdirectory, e.g. echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/xfs_ihold/enable or set more complex filters, etc. In Documentation/trace/events.txt all this is desctribed in more detail. To reads the events do a cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter, allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various spots in XFS. Take a look at http://lwn.net/Articles/346470/ for some examples. Also the btree tracing isn't included at all yet, as it will require additional core tracing features not in mainline yet, I plan to deliver it later. And the really nice thing about this patch is that it actually removes many lines of code while adding this nice functionality: fs/xfs/Makefile | 8 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_acl.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_aops.c | 52 - fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_aops.h | 2 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_buf.c | 117 +-- fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_buf.h | 33 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_fs_subr.c | 3 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_ioctl.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_ioctl32.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_iops.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_linux.h | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_lrw.c | 87 -- fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_lrw.h | 45 - fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_super.c | 104 --- fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_super.h | 7 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_sync.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_trace.c | 75 ++ fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_trace.h | 1369 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_vnode.h | 4 fs/xfs/quota/xfs_dquot.c | 110 --- fs/xfs/quota/xfs_dquot.h | 21 fs/xfs/quota/xfs_qm.c | 40 - fs/xfs/quota/xfs_qm_syscalls.c | 4 fs/xfs/support/ktrace.c | 323 --------- fs/xfs/support/ktrace.h | 85 -- fs/xfs/xfs.h | 16 fs/xfs/xfs_ag.h | 14 fs/xfs/xfs_alloc.c | 230 +----- fs/xfs/xfs_alloc.h | 27 fs/xfs/xfs_alloc_btree.c | 1 fs/xfs/xfs_attr.c | 107 --- fs/xfs/xfs_attr.h | 10 fs/xfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c | 14 fs/xfs/xfs_attr_sf.h | 40 - fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.c | 507 +++------------ fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.h | 49 - fs/xfs/xfs_bmap_btree.c | 6 fs/xfs/xfs_btree.c | 5 fs/xfs/xfs_btree_trace.h | 17 fs/xfs/xfs_buf_item.c | 87 -- fs/xfs/xfs_buf_item.h | 20 fs/xfs/xfs_da_btree.c | 3 fs/xfs/xfs_da_btree.h | 7 fs/xfs/xfs_dfrag.c | 2 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2.c | 8 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_block.c | 20 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_leaf.c | 21 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_node.c | 27 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_sf.c | 26 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_trace.c | 216 ------ fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_trace.h | 72 -- fs/xfs/xfs_filestream.c | 8 fs/xfs/xfs_fsops.c | 2 fs/xfs/xfs_iget.c | 111 --- fs/xfs/xfs_inode.c | 67 -- fs/xfs/xfs_inode.h | 76 -- fs/xfs/xfs_inode_item.c | 5 fs/xfs/xfs_iomap.c | 85 -- fs/xfs/xfs_iomap.h | 8 fs/xfs/xfs_log.c | 181 +---- fs/xfs/xfs_log_priv.h | 20 fs/xfs/xfs_log_recover.c | 1 fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c | 2 fs/xfs/xfs_quota.h | 8 fs/xfs/xfs_rename.c | 1 fs/xfs/xfs_rtalloc.c | 1 fs/xfs/xfs_rw.c | 3 fs/xfs/xfs_trans.h | 47 + fs/xfs/xfs_trans_buf.c | 62 - fs/xfs/xfs_vnodeops.c | 8 70 files changed, 2151 insertions(+), 2592 deletions(-) Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
