The kernel work consumed a lot of CPU, and I found they are running journal
work, The journal is reclaiming source and flush btree node with surprising
frequency.
Through further analysis, we found that in btree_flush_write(), we try to
get a btree node with the smallest fifo idex to flush by traverse all the
btree nodein c->bucket_hash, after we getting it, since no locker protects
it, this btree node may have been written to cache device by other works,
and if this occurred, we retry to traverse in c->bucket_hash and get
another btree node. When the problem occurrd, the retry times is very high,
and we consume a lot of CPU in looking for a appropriate btree node.
In this patch, we try to record 128 btree nodes with the smallest fifo idex
in heap, and pop one by one when we need to flush btree node. It greatly
reduces the time for the loop to find the appropriate BTREE node, and also
reduce the occupancy of CPU.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

The previous code artificially limited writeback rate to 1000000
blocks/second (NSEC_PER_MSEC), which is a rate that can be met on fast
hardware. The rate limiting code works fine (though with decreased
precision) up to 3 orders of magnitude faster, so use NSEC_PER_SEC.
Additionally, ensure that uint32_t is used as a type for rate throughout
the rate management so that type checking/clamp_t can work properly.
bch_next_delay should be rewritten for increased precision and better
handling of high rates and long sleep periods, but this is adequate for
now.

There are many code paths opencoding kvmalloc. Let's use the helper
instead. The main difference to kvmalloc is that those users are
usually not considering all the aspects of the memory allocator. E.g.
allocation requests <= 32kB (with 4kB pages) are basically never failing
and invoke OOM killer to satisfy the allocation. This sounds too
disruptive for something that has a reasonable fallback - the vmalloc.
On the other hand those requests might fallback to vmalloc even when the
memory allocator would succeed after several more reclaim/compaction
attempts previously. There is no guarantee something like that happens
though.
This patch converts many of those places to kv[mz]alloc* helpers because
they are more conservative.

Background writeback works by scanning the btree for dirty data and
adding those keys into a fixed size buffer, then for each dirty key in
the keybuf writing it to the backing device.
When read_dirty() finishes and it's time to scan for more dirty data, we
need to wait for the outstanding writeback IO to finish - they still
take up slots in the keybuf (so that foreground writes can check for
them to avoid races) - without that wait, we'll continually rescan when
we'll be able to add at most a key or two to the keybuf, and that takes
locks that starves foreground IO. Doh.

Some of bcache's utility code has made it into the rest of the kernel,
so drop the bcache versions.
Bcache used to have a workaround for allocating from a bio set under
generic_make_request() (if you allocated more than once, the bios you
already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you
submitted, and you'd risk deadlock) - bcache would mask out __GFP_WAIT
when allocating bios under generic_make_request() so that allocation
could fail and it could retry from workqueue. But bio_alloc_bioset() has
a workaround now, so we can drop this hack and the associated error
handling.

The tracepoints were reworked to be more sensible, and fixed a null
pointer deref in one of the tracepoints.
Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a
performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it
was changed to an empty inline function.
Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as
part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even
on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.
