xfs: open code inc_inode_iversion when logging an inode
xfs: increase inode cluster size for v5 filesystems
xfs: fix unlock in xfs_bmap_add_attrfork
xfs: update maintainers
Michael L Semon reported that generic/069 runtime increased on v5
superblocks by 100% compared to v4 superblocks. his perf-based
analysis pointed directly at the timestamp updates being done by the
write path in this workload. The append writers are doing 4-byte
writes, so there are lots of timestamp updates occurring.
The thing is, they aren't being triggered by timestamp changes -
they are being triggered by the inode change counter needing to be
updated. That is, every write(2) system call needs to bump the inode
version count, and it does that through the timestamp update
mechanism. Hence for v5 filesystems, test generic/069 is running 3
orders of magnitude more timestmap update transactions on v5
filesystems due to the fact it does a huge number of *4 byte*
write(2) calls.
This isn't a real world scenario we really need to address - anyone
doing such sequential IO should be using fwrite(3), not write(2).
i.e. fwrite(3) buffers the writes in userspace to minimise the
number of write(2) syscalls, and the problem goes away.
However, there is a small change we can make to improve the
situation - removing the expensive lock operation on the change
counter update. All inode version counter changes in XFS occur
under the ip->i_ilock during a transaction, and therefore we
don't actually need the spin lock that provides exclusive access to
it through inc_inode_iversion().
Hence avoid the lock and just open code the increment ourselves when
logging the inode.

v5 filesystems use 512 byte inodes as a minimum, so read inodes in
clusters that are effectively half the size of a v4 filesystem with
256 byte inodes. For v5 fielsystems, scale the inode cluster size
with the size of the inode so that we keep a constant 32 inodes per
cluster ratio for all inode IO.
This only works if mkfs.xfs sets the inode alignment appropriately
for larger inode clusters, so this functionality is made conditional
on mkfs doing the right thing. xfs_repair needs to know about
the inode alignment changes, too.
Wall time:
create bulkstat find+stat ls -R unlink
v4 237s 161s 173s 201s 299s
v5 235s 163s 205s 31s 356s
patched 234s 160s 182s 29s 317s
System time:
create bulkstat find+stat ls -R unlink
v4 2601s 2490s 1653s 1656s 2960s
v5 2637s 2497s 1681s 20s 3216s
patched 2613s 2451s 1658s 20s 3007s
So, wall time same or down across the board, system time same or
down across the board, and cache hit rates all improve except for
the ls -R case which is a pure cold cache directory read workload
on v5 filesystems...
So, this patch removes most of the performance and CPU usage
differential between v4 and v5 filesystems on traversal related
workloads.
Note: while this patch is currently for v5 filesystems only, there
is no reason it can't be ported back to v4 filesystems. This hasn't
been done here because bringing the code back to v4 requires
forwards and backwards kernel compatibility testing. i.e. to
deterine if older kernels(*) do the right thing with larger inode
alignments but still only using 8k inode cluster sizes. None of this
testing and validation on v4 filesystems has been done, so for the
moment larger inode clusters is limited to v5 superblocks.
(*) a current default config v4 filesystem should mount just fine on
2.6.23 (when lazy-count support was introduced), and so if we change
the alignment emitted by mkfs without a feature bit then we have to
make sure it works properly on all kernels since 2.6.23. And if we
allow it to be changed when the lazy-count bit is not set, then it's
all kernels since v2 logs were introduced that need to be tested for
compatibility...

When there are processes heavily creating small files while sync(2) is
running, it can easily happen that quite some new files are created
between WB_SYNC_NONE and WB_SYNC_ALL pass of sync(2). That can happen
especially if there are several busy filesystems (remember that sync
traverses filesystems sequentially and waits in WB_SYNC_ALL phase on one
fs before starting it on another fs). Because WB_SYNC_ALL pass is slow
(e.g. causes a transaction commit and cache flush for each inode in
ext3), resulting sync(2) times are rather large.
The following script reproduces the problem:
function run_writers
{
for (( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )); do
mkdir $1/dir$i
for (( j = 0; j < 40000; j++ )); do
dd if=/dev/zero of=$1/dir$i/$j bs=4k count=4 &>/dev/null
done &
done
}
for dir in "$@"; do
run_writers $dir
done
sleep 40
time sync
Fix the problem by disregarding inodes dirtied after sync(2) was called
in the WB_SYNC_ALL pass. To allow for this, sync_inodes_sb() now takes
a time stamp when sync has started which is used for setting up work for
flusher threads.
To give some numbers, when above script is run on two ext4 filesystems
on simple SATA drive, the average sync time from 10 runs is 267.549
seconds with standard deviation 104.799426. With the patched kernel,
the average sync time from 10 runs is 2.995 seconds with standard
deviation 0.096.

Removing an inode from the namespace involves removing the directory
entry and dropping the link count on the inode. Removing the
directory entry can result in locking an AGF (directory blocks were
freed) and removing a link count can result in placing the inode on
an unlinked list which results in locking an AGI.
The big problem here is that we have an ordering constraint on AGF
and AGI locking - inode allocation locks the AGI, then can allocate
a new extent for new inodes, locking the AGF after the AGI.
Similarly, freeing the inode removes the inode from the unlinked
list, requiring that we lock the AGI first, and then freeing the
inode can result in an inode chunk being freed and hence freeing
disk space requiring that we lock an AGF.
Hence the ordering that is imposed by other parts of the code is AGI
before AGF. This means we cannot remove the directory entry before
we drop the inode reference count and put it on the unlinked list as
this results in a lock order of AGF then AGI, and this can deadlock
against inode allocation and freeing. Therefore we must drop the
link counts before we remove the directory entry.
This is still safe from a transactional point of view - it is not
until we get to xfs_bmap_finish() that we have the possibility of
multiple transactions in this operation. Hence as long as we remove
the directory entry and drop the link count in the first transaction
of the remove operation, there are no transactional constraints on
the ordering here.
Change the ordering of the operations in the xfs_remove() function
to align the ordering of AGI and AGF locking to match that of the
rest of the code.

Today, if xfs_sb_read_verify encounters a v4 superblock
with junk past v4 fields which includes data in sb_crc,
it will be treated as a failing checksum and a significant
corruption.
There are known prior bugs which leave junk at the end
of the V4 superblock; we don't need to actually fail the
verification in this case if other checks pan out ok.
So if this is a secondary superblock, and the primary
superblock doesn't indicate that this is a V5 filesystem,
don't treat this as an actual checksum failure.
We should probably check the garbage condition as
we do in xfs_repair, and possibly warn about it
or self-heal, but that's a different scope of work.
Stable folks: This can go back to v3.10, which is what
introduced the sb CRC checking that is tripped up by old,

Page cache allocation doesn't always go through ->begin_write and
hence we don't always get the opportunity to set the allocation
context to GFP_NOFS. Failing to do this means we open up the direct
relcaim stack to recurse into the filesystem and consume a
significant amount of stack.
On RHEL6.4 kernels we are seeing ra_submit() and
generic_file_splice_read() from an nfsd context recursing into the
filesystem via the inode cache shrinker and evicting inodes. This is
causing truncation to be run (e.g EOF block freeing) and causing
bmap btree block merges and free space btree block splits to occur.
These btree manipulations are occurring with the call chain already
30 functions deep and hence there is not enough stack space to
complete such operations.
To avoid these specific overruns, we need to prevent the page cache
allocation from recursing via direct reclaim. We can do that because
the allocation functions take the allocation context from that which
is stored in the mapping for the inode. We don't set that right now,
so the default is GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE, which is effectively a
GFP_KERNEL context. We need it to be the equivalent of GFP_NOFS, so
when we initialise an inode, set the mapping gfp mask appropriately.
This makes the use of AOP_FLAG_NOFS redundant from other parts of
the XFS IO path, so get rid of it.

Conversion from on-disk structures to in-core header structures
currently relies on magic number checks. If the magic number is
wrong, but one of the supported values, we do the wrong thing with
the encode/decode operation. Split these functions so that there are
discrete operations for the specific directory format we are
handling.
In doing this, move all the header encode/decode functions to
xfs_da_format.c as they are directly manipulating the on-disk
format. It should be noted that all the growth in binary size is
from xfs_da_format.c - the rest of the code actaully shrinks.

The remaining non-vectorised code for the directory structure is the
node format blocks. This is shared with the attribute tree, and so
is slightly more complex to vectorise.
Introduce a "non-directory" directory ops structure that is attached
to all non-directory inodes so that attribute operations can be
vectorised for all inodes.
Once we do this, we can vectorise all the da btree operations.
Because this patch adds more infrastructure than it removes the

Next step in the vectorisation process is the leaf block

Because of all the shuffling of code and having to pass more state

Lots of the dir code now goes through switches to determine what is
the correct on-disk format to parse. It generally involves a
"xfs_sbversion_hasfoo" check, deferencing the superblock version and
feature fields and hence touching several cache lines per operation
in the process. Some operations do multiple checks because they nest
conditional operations and they don't pass the information in a
direct fashion between each other.
Hence, add an ops vector to the xfs_inode structure that is
configured when the inode is initialised to point to all the correct
decode and encoding operations. This will significantly reduce the
branchiness and cacheline footprint of the directory object decoding
and encoding.
This is the first patch in a series of conversion patches. It will
introduce the ops structure, the setup of it and add the first
operation to the vector. Subsequent patches will convert directory
ops one at a time to keep the changes simple and obvious.
Just this patch shows the benefit of such an approach on code size.
Just converting the two shortform dir operations as this patch does
decreases the built binary size by ~1500 bytes:
$ size fs/xfs/xfs.o.orig fs/xfs/xfs.o.p1
text data bss dec hex filename
794490 96802 1096 892388 d9de4 fs/xfs/xfs.o.orig
792986 96802 1096 890884 d9804 fs/xfs/xfs.o.p1
$
That's a significant decrease in the instruction cache footprint of
the directory code for such a simple change, and indicates that this
approach is definitely worth pursuing further.

files and clean up the includes to be in dependency order.
In doing this, remove the direct include of xfs_trans_reserve.h from

When xfs_growfs_data_private() is updating backup superblocks,
it bails out on the first error encountered, whether reading or
writing:
* If we get an error writing out the alternate superblocks,
* just issue a warning and continue. The real work is
* already done and committed.
This can cause a problem later during repair, because repair
looks at all superblocks, and picks the most prevalent one
as correct. If we bail out early in the backup superblock
loop, we can end up with more "bad" matching superblocks than
good, and a post-growfs repair may revert the filesystem to
the old geometry.
With the combination of superblock verifiers and old bugs,
we're more likely to encounter read errors due to verification.
And perhaps even worse, we don't even properly write any of the
newly-added superblocks in the new AGs.
Even with this change, growfs will still say:
xfs_growfs: XFS_IOC_FSGROWFSDATA xfsctl failed: Structure needs cleaning
data blocks changed from 319815680 to 335216640
which might be confusing to the user, but it at least communicates
that something has gone wrong, and dmesg will probably highlight
the need for an xfs_repair.
And this is still best-effort; if verifiers fail on more than
half the backup supers, they may still "win" - but that's probably
best left to repair to more gracefully handle by doing its own
strict verification as part of the backup super "voting."

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...
