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.

2010-05-24xfs: enable background pushing of the CILDave Chinner
If we let the CIL grow without bound, it will grow large enough to violate recovery constraints (must be at least one complete transaction in the log at all times) or take forever to write out through the log buffers. Hence we need a check during asynchronous transactions as to whether the CIL needs to be pushed. We track the amount of log space the CIL consumes, so it is relatively simple to limit it on a pure size basis. Make the limit the minimum of just under half the log size (recovery constraint) or 8MB of log space (which is an awful lot of metadata).

2010-05-24xfs: Introduce delayed logging core codeDave Chinner
The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that should not be used in production yet. We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List (CIL) is for. The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable this tracking. To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space log required/used by the context checkpoint. To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item, rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL. Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point back at the memory buffer we just copied into. This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it again. The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update all the tickets, counters, etc correctly. Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time. Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event. Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during Io completion to complete the checkpoint. We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with. To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

2010-05-24xfs: Improve scalability of busy extent trackingDave Chinner
When we free a metadata extent, we record it in the per-AG busy extent array so that it is not re-used before the freeing transaction hits the disk. This array is fixed size, so when it overflows we make further allocation transactions synchronous because we cannot track more freed extents until those transactions hit the disk and are completed. Under heavy mixed allocation and freeing workloads with large log buffers, we can overflow this array quite easily. Further, the array is sparsely populated, which means that inserts need to search for a free slot, and array searches often have to search many more slots that are actually used to check all the busy extents. Quite inefficient, really. To enable this aspect of extent freeing to scale better, we need a structure that can grow dynamically. While in other areas of XFS we have used radix trees, the extents being freed are at random locations on disk so are better suited to being indexed by an rbtree. So, use a per-AG rbtree indexed by block number to track busy extents. This incures a memory allocation when marking an extent busy, but should not occur too often in low memory situations. This should scale to an arbitrary number of extents so should not be a limitation for features such as in-memory aggregation of transactions. However, there are still situations where we can't avoid allocating busy extents (such as allocation from the AGFL). To minimise the overhead of such occurences, we need to avoid doing a synchronous log force while holding the AGF locked to ensure that the previous transactions are safely on disk before we use the extent. We can do this by marking the transaction doing the allocation as synchronous rather issuing a log force. Because of the locking involved and the ordering of transactions, the synchronous transaction provides the same guarantees as a synchronous log force because it ensures that all the prior transactions are already on disk when the synchronous transaction hits the disk. i.e. it preserves the free->allocate order of the extent correctly in recovery. By doing this, we avoid holding the AGF locked while log writes are in progress, hence reducing the length of time the lock is held and therefore we increase the rate at which we can allocate and free from the allocation group, thereby increasing overall throughput. The only problem with this approach is that when a metadata buffer is marked stale (e.g. a directory block is removed), then buffer remains pinned and locked until the log goes to disk. The issue here is that if that stale buffer is reallocated in a subsequent transaction, the attempt to lock that buffer in the transaction will hang waiting the log to go to disk to unlock and unpin the buffer. Hence if someone tries to lock a pinned, stale, locked buffer we need to push on the log to get it unlocked ASAP. Effectively we are trading off a guaranteed log force for a much less common trigger for log force to occur. Ideally we should not reallocate busy extents. That is a much more complex fix to the problem as it involves direct intervention in the allocation btree searches in many places. This is left to a future set of modifications. Finally, now that we track busy extents in allocated memory, we don't need the descriptors in the transaction structure to point to them. We can replace the complex busy chunk infrastructure with a simple linked list of busy extents. This allows us to remove a large chunk of code, making the overall change a net reduction in code size.

2010-05-24xfs: make the log ticket ID available outside the log infrastructureDave Chinner
The ticket ID is needed to uniquely identify transactions when doing busy extent matching. Delayed logging changes the lifecycle of busy extents with respect to the transaction structure lifecycle. Hence we can no longer use the transaction structure as a means of determining the owner of the busy extent as it may be freed and reused while the busy extent is still active. This commit provides the infrastructure to access the xlog_tid_t held in the ticket from a transaction handle. This avoids the need for callers to peek into the transaction and log structures to find this out.

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: simplify XLOG_SECTOR_ROUND*()Alex Elder
XLOG_SECTOR_ROUNDUP_BBCOUNT() is defined in "fs/xfs/xfs_log_recover.c" in an overly-complicated way. It is basically roundup(), but that is not at all clear from its definition. (Actually, there is another macro round_up() that applies for power-of-two-based masks which I'll be using here.) The operands in XLOG_SECTOR_ROUNDUP_BBCOUNT() are basically the block number (bbs) and the log sector basic block mask (log->l_sectbb_mask). I'll call them B and M for this discussion. The macro computes is value this way: M && (B & M) ? (B + M + 1) & ~M : B Put another way, we can break it into 3 cases: 1) ! M -> B # 0 mask, no effect 2) ! (B & M) -> B # sector aligned 3) M && (B & M) -> (B + M + 1) & ~M # round up otherwise The round_up() macro is cleverly defined using a value, v, and a power-of-2, p, and the result is the nearest multiple of p greater than or equal to v. Its value is computed something like this: ((v - 1) | (p - 1)) + 1 Let's consider using this in the context of the 3 cases above. When p = 2^0 = 1, the result boils down to ((v - 1) | 0) + 1, so it just translates any value v to itself. That handles case (1) above. When p = 2^n, n > 0, we know that (p - 1) will be a mask with all n bits 0..n-1 set. The condition in this case occurs when none of those mask bits is set in the value v provided. If that is the case, subtracting 1 from v will have 1's in all those lower bits (at least). Therefore, OR-ing the mask with that decremented value has no effect, so adding the 1 back again will just translate the v to itself. This handles case (2). Otherwise, the value v is greater than some multiple of p, and decrementing it will produce a result greater than or equal to that multiple. OR-ing in the mask will produce a value 1 less than the next multiple of p, so finally adding 1 back will result in the desired rounded-up value. This handles case (3). Hopefully this is convincing. While I was at it, I converted XLOG_SECTOR_ROUNDDOWN_BLKNO() to use the round_down() macro.

2010-05-19xfs: fix min bufsize bugs in two placesAlex Elder
This fixes a bug in two places that I found by inspection. In xlog_find_verify_cycle() and xlog_write_log_records(), the code attempts to allocate a buffer to hold as many blocks as possible. It gives up if the number of blocks to be allocated gets too small. Right now it uses log->l_sectbb_log as that lower bound, but I'm sure it's supposed to be the actual log sector size instead. That is, the lower bound should be (1 << log->l_sectbb_log). Also define a simple macro xlog_sectbb(log) to represent the number of basic blocks in a sector for the given log. (No change from original submission; I have implemented Christoph's suggestion about storing l_sectsize rather than l_sectbb_log in a new, separate patch in this series.)
