xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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.

xfs: allocate log vector buffers outside CIL context lock
One of the problems we currently have with delayed logging is that
under serious memory pressure we can deadlock memory reclaim. THis
occurs when memory reclaim (such as run by kswapd) is reclaiming XFS
inodes and issues a log force to unpin inodes that are dirty in the
CIL.
The CIL is pushed, but this will only occur once it gets the CIL
context lock to ensure that all committing transactions are complete
and no new transactions start being committed to the CIL while the
push switches to a new context.
The deadlock occurs when the CIL context lock is held by a
committing process that is doing memory allocation for log vector
buffers, and that allocation is then blocked on memory reclaim
making progress. Memory reclaim, however, is blocked waiting for
a log force to make progress, and so we effectively deadlock at this
point.
To solve this problem, we have to move the CIL log vector buffer
allocation outside of the context lock so that memory reclaim can
always make progress when it needs to force the log. The problem
with doing this is that a CIL push can take place while we are
determining if we need to allocate a new log vector buffer for
an item and hence the current log vector may go away without
warning. That means we canot rely on the existing log vector being
present when we finally grab the context lock and so we must have a
replacement buffer ready to go at all times.
To ensure this, introduce a "shadow log vector" buffer that is
always guaranteed to be present when we gain the CIL context lock
and format the item. This shadow buffer may or may not be used
during the formatting, but if the log item does not have an existing
log vector buffer or that buffer is too small for the new
modifications, we swap it for the new shadow buffer and format
the modifications into that new log vector buffer.
The result of this is that for any object we modify more than once
in a given CIL checkpoint, we double the memory required
to track dirty regions in the log. For single modifications then
we consume the shadow log vectorwe allocate on commit, and that gets
consumed by the checkpoint. However, if we make multiple
modifications, then the second transaction commit will allocate a
shadow log vector and hence we will end up with double the memory
usage as only one of the log vectors is consumed by the CIL
checkpoint. The remaining shadow vector will be freed when th elog
item is freed.
This can probably be optimised in future - access to the shadow log
vector is serialised by the object lock (as opposited to the active
log vector, which is controlled by the CIL context lock) and so we
can probably free shadow log vector from some objects when the log
item is marked clean on removal from the AIL.

* the CIL and we need a CIL commit to occur to free memory.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* To avoid this, we need to move the memory allocation outside the
|
|
|
|
* xc_ctx_lock, but because the log vector buffers are disposable, that opens
|
|
|
|
* up a TOCTOU race condition w.r.t. the CIL committing and removing the log
|
|
|
|
* vector buffers between the check and the formatting of the item into the
|
|
|
|
* log vector buffer within the xc_ctx_lock.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* Because the log vector buffer needs to be unchanged during the CIL push
|
|
|
|
* process, we cannot share the buffer between the transaction commit (which
|
|
|
|
* modifies the buffer) and the CIL push context that is writing the changes
|
|
|
|
* into the log. This means skipping preallocation of buffer space is
|
|
|
|
* unreliable, but we most definitely do not want to be allocating and freeing
|
|
|
|
* buffers unnecessarily during commits when overwrites can be done safely.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* The simplest solution to this problem is to allocate a shadow buffer when a
|
|
|
|
* log item is committed for the second time, and then to only use this buffer
|
|
|
|
* if necessary. The buffer can remain attached to the log item until such time
|
|
|
|
* it is needed, and this is the buffer that is reallocated to match the size of
|
|
|
|
* the incoming modification. Then during the formatting of the item we can swap
|
|
|
|
* the active buffer with the new one if we can't reuse the existing buffer. We
|
|
|
|
* don't free the old buffer as it may be reused on the next modification if
|
|
|
|
* it's size is right, otherwise we'll free and reallocate it at that point.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* This function builds a vector for the changes in each log item in the
|
|
|
|
* transaction. It then works out the length of the buffer needed for each log
|
|
|
|
* item, allocates them and attaches the vector to the log item in preparation
|
|
|
|
* for the formatting step which occurs under the xc_ctx_lock.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* While this means the memory footprint goes up, it avoids the repeated
|
|
|
|
* alloc/free pattern that repeated modifications of an item would otherwise
|
|
|
|
* cause, and hence minimises the CPU overhead of such behaviour.

xfs: allocate log vector buffers outside CIL context lock
One of the problems we currently have with delayed logging is that
under serious memory pressure we can deadlock memory reclaim. THis
occurs when memory reclaim (such as run by kswapd) is reclaiming XFS
inodes and issues a log force to unpin inodes that are dirty in the
CIL.
The CIL is pushed, but this will only occur once it gets the CIL
context lock to ensure that all committing transactions are complete
and no new transactions start being committed to the CIL while the
push switches to a new context.
The deadlock occurs when the CIL context lock is held by a
committing process that is doing memory allocation for log vector
buffers, and that allocation is then blocked on memory reclaim
making progress. Memory reclaim, however, is blocked waiting for
a log force to make progress, and so we effectively deadlock at this
point.
To solve this problem, we have to move the CIL log vector buffer
allocation outside of the context lock so that memory reclaim can
always make progress when it needs to force the log. The problem
with doing this is that a CIL push can take place while we are
determining if we need to allocate a new log vector buffer for
an item and hence the current log vector may go away without
warning. That means we canot rely on the existing log vector being
present when we finally grab the context lock and so we must have a
replacement buffer ready to go at all times.
To ensure this, introduce a "shadow log vector" buffer that is
always guaranteed to be present when we gain the CIL context lock
and format the item. This shadow buffer may or may not be used
during the formatting, but if the log item does not have an existing
log vector buffer or that buffer is too small for the new
modifications, we swap it for the new shadow buffer and format
the modifications into that new log vector buffer.
The result of this is that for any object we modify more than once
in a given CIL checkpoint, we double the memory required
to track dirty regions in the log. For single modifications then
we consume the shadow log vectorwe allocate on commit, and that gets
consumed by the checkpoint. However, if we make multiple
modifications, then the second transaction commit will allocate a
shadow log vector and hence we will end up with double the memory
usage as only one of the log vectors is consumed by the CIL
checkpoint. The remaining shadow vector will be freed when th elog
item is freed.
This can probably be optimised in future - access to the shadow log
vector is serialised by the object lock (as opposited to the active
log vector, which is controlled by the CIL context lock) and so we
can probably free shadow log vector from some objects when the log
item is marked clean on removal from the AIL.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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.

xfs: allocate log vector buffers outside CIL context lock
One of the problems we currently have with delayed logging is that
under serious memory pressure we can deadlock memory reclaim. THis
occurs when memory reclaim (such as run by kswapd) is reclaiming XFS
inodes and issues a log force to unpin inodes that are dirty in the
CIL.
The CIL is pushed, but this will only occur once it gets the CIL
context lock to ensure that all committing transactions are complete
and no new transactions start being committed to the CIL while the
push switches to a new context.
The deadlock occurs when the CIL context lock is held by a
committing process that is doing memory allocation for log vector
buffers, and that allocation is then blocked on memory reclaim
making progress. Memory reclaim, however, is blocked waiting for
a log force to make progress, and so we effectively deadlock at this
point.
To solve this problem, we have to move the CIL log vector buffer
allocation outside of the context lock so that memory reclaim can
always make progress when it needs to force the log. The problem
with doing this is that a CIL push can take place while we are
determining if we need to allocate a new log vector buffer for
an item and hence the current log vector may go away without
warning. That means we canot rely on the existing log vector being
present when we finally grab the context lock and so we must have a
replacement buffer ready to go at all times.
To ensure this, introduce a "shadow log vector" buffer that is
always guaranteed to be present when we gain the CIL context lock
and format the item. This shadow buffer may or may not be used
during the formatting, but if the log item does not have an existing
log vector buffer or that buffer is too small for the new
modifications, we swap it for the new shadow buffer and format
the modifications into that new log vector buffer.
The result of this is that for any object we modify more than once
in a given CIL checkpoint, we double the memory required
to track dirty regions in the log. For single modifications then
we consume the shadow log vectorwe allocate on commit, and that gets
consumed by the checkpoint. However, if we make multiple
modifications, then the second transaction commit will allocate a
shadow log vector and hence we will end up with double the memory
usage as only one of the log vectors is consumed by the CIL
checkpoint. The remaining shadow vector will be freed when th elog
item is freed.
This can probably be optimised in future - access to the shadow log
vector is serialised by the object lock (as opposited to the active
log vector, which is controlled by the CIL context lock) and so we
can probably free shadow log vector from some objects when the log
item is marked clean on removal from the AIL.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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.

To ensure this, introduce a "shadow log vector" buffer that is
always guaranteed to be present when we gain the CIL context lock
and format the item. This shadow buffer may or may not be used
during the formatting, but if the log item does not have an existing
log vector buffer or that buffer is too small for the new
modifications, we swap it for the new shadow buffer and format
the modifications into that new log vector buffer.
The result of this is that for any object we modify more than once
in a given CIL checkpoint, we double the memory required
to track dirty regions in the log. For single modifications then
we consume the shadow log vectorwe allocate on commit, and that gets
consumed by the checkpoint. However, if we make multiple
modifications, then the second transaction commit will allocate a
shadow log vector and hence we will end up with double the memory
usage as only one of the log vectors is consumed by the CIL
checkpoint. The remaining shadow vector will be freed when th elog
item is freed.
This can probably be optimised in future - access to the shadow log
vector is serialised by the object lock (as opposited to the active
log vector, which is controlled by the CIL context lock) and so we
can probably free shadow log vector from some objects when the log
item is marked clean on removal from the AIL.

xfs: allocate log vector buffers outside CIL context lock
One of the problems we currently have with delayed logging is that
under serious memory pressure we can deadlock memory reclaim. THis
occurs when memory reclaim (such as run by kswapd) is reclaiming XFS
inodes and issues a log force to unpin inodes that are dirty in the
CIL.
The CIL is pushed, but this will only occur once it gets the CIL
context lock to ensure that all committing transactions are complete
and no new transactions start being committed to the CIL while the
push switches to a new context.
The deadlock occurs when the CIL context lock is held by a
committing process that is doing memory allocation for log vector
buffers, and that allocation is then blocked on memory reclaim
making progress. Memory reclaim, however, is blocked waiting for
a log force to make progress, and so we effectively deadlock at this
point.
To solve this problem, we have to move the CIL log vector buffer
allocation outside of the context lock so that memory reclaim can
always make progress when it needs to force the log. The problem
with doing this is that a CIL push can take place while we are
determining if we need to allocate a new log vector buffer for
an item and hence the current log vector may go away without
warning. That means we canot rely on the existing log vector being
present when we finally grab the context lock and so we must have a
replacement buffer ready to go at all times.
To ensure this, introduce a "shadow log vector" buffer that is
always guaranteed to be present when we gain the CIL context lock

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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.

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.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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

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.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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.

xfs: xlog_cil_force_lsn doesn't always wait correctly
When running a tight mount/unmount loop on an older kernel, RedHat
QE found that unmount would occasionally hang in
xfs_buf_unpin_wait() on the superblock buffer. Tracing and other
debug work by Eric Sandeen indicated that it was hanging on the
writing of the superblock during unmount immediately after logging
the superblock counters in a synchronous transaction. Further debug
indicated that the synchronous transaction was not waiting for
completion correctly, and we narrowed it down to
xlog_cil_force_lsn() returning NULLCOMMITLSN and hence not pushing
the transaction in the iclog buffer to disk correctly.
While this unmount superblock write code is now very different in
mainline kernels, the xlog_cil_force_lsn() code is identical, and it
was bisected to the backport of commit f876e44 ("xfs: always do log
forces via the workqueue"). This commit made the CIL push
asynchronous for log forces and hence exposed a race condition that
couldn't occur on a synchronous push.
Essentially, the xlog_cil_force_lsn() relied implicitly on the fact
that the sequence push would be complete by the time
xlog_cil_push_now() returned, resulting in the context being pushed
being in the committing list. When it was made asynchronous, it was
recognised that there was a race condition in detecting whether an
asynchronous push has started or not and code was added to handle
it.
Unfortunately, the fix was not quite right and left a race condition
where it it would detect an empty CIL while a push was in progress
before the context had been added to the committing list. This was
incorrectly seen as a "nothing to do" condition and so would tell
xfs_log_force_lsn() that there is nothing to wait for, and hence it
would push the iclogbufs in memory.
The fix is simple, but explaining the logic and the race condition
is a lot more complex. The fix is to add the context to the
committing list before we start emptying the CIL. This allows us to
detect the difference between an empty "do nothing" push and a push
that has not started by adding a discrete "emptying the CIL" state
to avoid the transient, incorrect "empty" condition that the
(unchanged) waiting code was seeing.

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

(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

the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides
the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

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.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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

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.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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

xfs: prevent deadlock trying to cover an active log
Recent analysis of a deadlocked XFS filesystem from a kernel
crash dump indicated that the filesystem was stuck waiting for log
space. The short story of the hang on the RHEL6 kernel is this:
- the tail of the log is pinned by an inode
- the inode has been pushed by the xfsaild
- the inode has been flushed to it's backing buffer and is
currently flush locked and hence waiting for backing
buffer IO to complete and remove it from the AIL
- the backing buffer is marked for write - it is on the
delayed write queue
- the inode buffer has been modified directly and logged
recently due to unlinked inode list modification
- the backing buffer is pinned in memory as it is in the
active CIL context.
- the xfsbufd won't start buffer writeback because it is
pinned
- xfssyncd won't force the log because it sees the log as
needing to be covered and hence wants to issue a dummy
transaction to move the log covering state machine along.
Hence there is no trigger to force the CIL to the log and hence
unpin the inode buffer and therefore complete the inode IO, remove
it from the AIL and hence move the tail of the log along, allowing
transactions to start again.
Mainline kernels also have the same deadlock, though the signature
is slightly different - the inode buffer never reaches the delayed
write lists because xfs_buf_item_push() sees that it is pinned and
hence never adds it to the delayed write list that the xfsaild
flushes.
There are two possible solutions here. The first is to simply force
the log before trying to cover the log and so ensure that the CIL is
emptied before we try to reserve space for the dummy transaction in
the xfs_log_worker(). While this might work most of the time, it is
still racy and is no guarantee that we don't get stuck in
xfs_trans_reserve waiting for log space to come free. Hence it's not
the best way to solve the problem.
The second solution is to modify xfs_log_need_covered() to be aware
of the CIL. We only should be attempting to cover the log if there
is no current activity in the log - covering the log is the process
of ensuring that the head and tail in the log on disk are identical
(i.e. the log is clean and at idle). Hence, by definition, if there
are items in the CIL then the log is not at idle and so we don't
need to attempt to cover it.
When we don't need to cover the log because it is active or idle, we
issue a log force from xfs_log_worker() - if the log is idle, then
this does nothing. However, if the log is active due to there being
items in the CIL, it will force the items in the CIL to the log and
unpin them.
In the case of the above deadlock scenario, instead of
xfs_log_worker() getting stuck in xfs_trans_reserve() attempting to
cover the log, it will instead force the log, thereby unpinning the
inode buffer, allowing IO to be issued and complete and hence
removing the inode that was pinning the tail of the log from the
AIL. At that point, everything will start moving along again. i.e.
the xfs_log_worker turns back into a watchdog that can alleviate
deadlocks based around pinned items that prevent the tail of the log
from being moved...

xfs: allocate log vector buffers outside CIL context lock
One of the problems we currently have with delayed logging is that
under serious memory pressure we can deadlock memory reclaim. THis
occurs when memory reclaim (such as run by kswapd) is reclaiming XFS
inodes and issues a log force to unpin inodes that are dirty in the
CIL.
The CIL is pushed, but this will only occur once it gets the CIL
context lock to ensure that all committing transactions are complete
and no new transactions start being committed to the CIL while the
push switches to a new context.
The deadlock occurs when the CIL context lock is held by a
committing process that is doing memory allocation for log vector
buffers, and that allocation is then blocked on memory reclaim
making progress. Memory reclaim, however, is blocked waiting for
a log force to make progress, and so we effectively deadlock at this
point.
To solve this problem, we have to move the CIL log vector buffer
allocation outside of the context lock so that memory reclaim can
always make progress when it needs to force the log. The problem
with doing this is that a CIL push can take place while we are
determining if we need to allocate a new log vector buffer for
an item and hence the current log vector may go away without
warning. That means we canot rely on the existing log vector being
present when we finally grab the context lock and so we must have a
replacement buffer ready to go at all times.
To ensure this, introduce a "shadow log vector" buffer that is
always guaranteed to be present when we gain the CIL context lock
and format the item. This shadow buffer may or may not be used
during the formatting, but if the log item does not have an existing
log vector buffer or that buffer is too small for the new
modifications, we swap it for the new shadow buffer and format
the modifications into that new log vector buffer.
The result of this is that for any object we modify more than once
in a given CIL checkpoint, we double the memory required
to track dirty regions in the log. For single modifications then
we consume the shadow log vectorwe allocate on commit, and that gets
consumed by the checkpoint. However, if we make multiple
modifications, then the second transaction commit will allocate a
shadow log vector and hence we will end up with double the memory
usage as only one of the log vectors is consumed by the CIL
checkpoint. The remaining shadow vector will be freed when th elog
item is freed.
This can probably be optimised in future - access to the shadow log
vector is serialised by the object lock (as opposited to the active
log vector, which is controlled by the CIL context lock) and so we
can probably free shadow log vector from some objects when the log
item is marked clean on removal from the AIL.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
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.

xfs: xlog_cil_force_lsn doesn't always wait correctly
When running a tight mount/unmount loop on an older kernel, RedHat
QE found that unmount would occasionally hang in
xfs_buf_unpin_wait() on the superblock buffer. Tracing and other
debug work by Eric Sandeen indicated that it was hanging on the
writing of the superblock during unmount immediately after logging
the superblock counters in a synchronous transaction. Further debug
indicated that the synchronous transaction was not waiting for
completion correctly, and we narrowed it down to
xlog_cil_force_lsn() returning NULLCOMMITLSN and hence not pushing
the transaction in the iclog buffer to disk correctly.
While this unmount superblock write code is now very different in
mainline kernels, the xlog_cil_force_lsn() code is identical, and it
was bisected to the backport of commit f876e44 ("xfs: always do log
forces via the workqueue"). This commit made the CIL push
asynchronous for log forces and hence exposed a race condition that
couldn't occur on a synchronous push.
Essentially, the xlog_cil_force_lsn() relied implicitly on the fact
that the sequence push would be complete by the time
xlog_cil_push_now() returned, resulting in the context being pushed
being in the committing list. When it was made asynchronous, it was
recognised that there was a race condition in detecting whether an
asynchronous push has started or not and code was added to handle
it.
Unfortunately, the fix was not quite right and left a race condition
where it it would detect an empty CIL while a push was in progress
before the context had been added to the committing list. This was
incorrectly seen as a "nothing to do" condition and so would tell
xfs_log_force_lsn() that there is nothing to wait for, and hence it
would push the iclogbufs in memory.
The fix is simple, but explaining the logic and the race condition
is a lot more complex. The fix is to add the context to the
committing list before we start emptying the CIL. This allows us to
detect the difference between an empty "do nothing" push and a push
that has not started by adding a discrete "emptying the CIL" state
to avoid the transient, incorrect "empty" condition that the
(unchanged) waiting code was seeing.

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.
