* xfs: clean up busy extent namingDave Chinner2012-05-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the busy extent tracking has been moved out of the allocation files, clean up the namespace it uses to "xfs_extent_busy" rather than a mix of "xfs_busy" and "xfs_alloc_busy".

* xfs: move busy extent handling to it's own fileDave Chinner2012-05-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To make it easier to handle userspace code merges, move all the busy extent handling out of the allocation code and into it's own file. The userspace code does not need the busy extent code, so this simplifies the merging of the kernel code into the userspace xfsprogs library. Because the busy extent code has been almost completely rewritten over the past couple of years, also update the copyright on this new file to include the authors that made all those changes.

* xfs: simplify xfs_trans_ijoin* againChristoph Hellwig2011-10-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no reason to keep a reference to the inode even if we unlock it during transaction commit because we never drop a reference between the ijoin and commit. Also use this fact to merge xfs_trans_ijoin_ref back into xfs_trans_ijoin - the third argument decides if an unlock is needed now. I'm actually starting to wonder if allowing inodes to be unlocked at transaction commit really is worth the effort. The only real benefit is that they can be unlocked earlier when commiting a synchronous transactions, but that could be solved by doing the log force manually after the unlock, too.

* xfs: use a cursor for bulk AIL insertionDave Chinner2011-07-201-4/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Delayed logging can insert tens of thousands of log items into the AIL at the same LSN. When the committing of log commit records occur, we can get insertions occurring at an LSN that is not at the end of the AIL. If there are thousands of items in the AIL on the tail LSN, each insertion has to walk the AIL to find the correct place to insert the new item into the AIL. This can consume large amounts of CPU time and block other operations from occurring while the traversals are in progress. To avoid this repeated walk, use a AIL cursor to record where we should be inserting the new items into the AIL without having to repeat the walk. The cursor infrastructure already provides this functionality for push walks, so is a simple extension of existing code. While this will not avoid the initial walk, it will avoid repeating it tens of thousands of times during a single checkpoint commit. This version includes logic improvements from Christoph Hellwig.

* Revert "xfs: fix filesystsem freeze race in xfs_trans_alloc"Alex Elder2011-07-111-10/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 7a249cf83da1813cfa71cfe1e265b40045eceb47. That commit created a situation that could lead to a filesystem hang. As Dave Chinner pointed out, xfs_trans_alloc() could hold a reference to m_active_trans (i.e., keep it non-zero) and then wait for SB_FREEZE_TRANS to complete. Meanwhile a filesystem freeze request could set SB_FREEZE_TRANS and then wait for m_active_trans to drop to zero. Nobody benefits from this sequence of events...

| | | | | | | | | | | | As pointed out by Jan xfs_trans_alloc can race with a concurrent filesystem freeze when it sleeps during the memory allocation. Fix this by moving the wait_for_freeze call after the memory allocation. This means moving the freeze into the low-level _xfs_trans_alloc helper, which thus grows a new argument. Also fix up some comments in that area while at it. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com> Reviewed-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>
* xfs: unpin stale inodes directly in IOP_COMMITTEDDave Chinner2011-07-061-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When inodes are marked stale in a transaction, they are treated specially when the inode log item is being inserted into the AIL. It tries to avoid moving the log item forward in the AIL due to a race condition with the writing the underlying buffer back to disk. The was "fixed" in commit de25c18 ("xfs: avoid moving stale inodes in the AIL"). To avoid moving the item forward, we return a LSN smaller than the commit_lsn of the completing transaction, thereby trying to trick the commit code into not moving the inode forward at all. I'm not sure this ever worked as intended - it assumes the inode is already in the AIL, but I don't think the returned LSN would have been small enough to prevent moving the inode. It appears that the reason it worked is that the lower LSN of the inodes meant they were inserted into the AIL and flushed before the inode buffer (which was moved to the commit_lsn of the transaction). The big problem is that with delayed logging, the returning of the different LSN means insertion takes the slow, non-bulk path. Worse yet is that insertion is to a position -before- the commit_lsn so it is doing a AIL traversal on every insertion, and has to walk over all the items that have already been inserted into the AIL. It's expensive. To compound the matter further, with delayed logging inodes are likely to go from clean to stale in a single checkpoint, which means they aren't even in the AIL at all when we come across them at AIL insertion time. Hence these were all getting inserted into the AIL when they simply do not need to be as inodes marked XFS_ISTALE are never written back. Transactional/recovery integrity is maintained in this case by the other items in the unlink transaction that were modified (e.g. the AGI btree blocks) and committed in the same checkpoint. So to fix this, simply unpin the stale inodes directly in xfs_inode_item_committed() and return -1 to indicate that the AIL insertion code does not need to do any further processing of these inodes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we have reliably tracking of deleted extents in a transaction we can easily implement "online" discard support which calls blkdev_issue_discard once a transaction commits. The actual discard is a two stage operation as we first have to mark the busy extent as not available for reuse before we can start the actual discard. Note that we don't bother supporting discard for the non-delaylog mode. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>

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

* xfs: bulk AIL insertion during transaction commitDave Chinner2010-12-201-1/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When inserting items into the AIL from the transaction committed callbacks, we take the AIL lock for every single item that is to be inserted. For a CIL checkpoint commit, this can be tens of thousands of individual inserts, yet almost all of the items will be inserted at the same point in the AIL because they have the same index. To reduce the overhead and contention on the AIL lock for such operations, introduce a "bulk insert" operation which allows a list of log items with the same LSN to be inserted in a single operation via a list splice. To do this, we need to pre-sort the log items being committed into a temporary list for insertion. The complexity is that not every log item will end up with the same LSN, and not every item is actually inserted into the AIL. Items that don't match the commit LSN will be inserted and unpinned as per the current one-at-a-time method (relatively rare), while items that are not to be inserted will be unpinned and freed immediately. Items that are to be inserted at the given commit lsn are placed in a temporary array and inserted into the AIL in bulk each time the array fills up. As a result of this, we trade off AIL hold time for a significant reduction in traffic. lock_stat output shows that the worst case hold time is unchanged, but contention from AIL inserts drops by an order of magnitude and the number of lock traversal decreases significantly.

* xfs: unlock items before allowing the CIL to commitDave Chinner2010-08-241-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we commit a transaction using delayed logging, we need to unlock the items in the transaciton before we unlock the CIL context and allow it to be checkpointed. If we unlock them after we release the CIl context lock, the CIL can checkpoint and complete before we free the log items. This breaks stale buffer item unlock and unpin processing as there is an implicit assumption that the unlock will occur before the unpin. Also, some log items need to store the LSN of the transaction commit in the item (inodes and EFIs) and so can race with other transaction completions if we don't prevent the CIL from checkpointing before the unlock occurs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we need to either call IHOLD or xfs_trans_ihold on an inode when joining it to a transaction via xfs_trans_ijoin. This patches instead makes xfs_trans_ijoin usable on it's own by doing an implicity xfs_trans_ihold, which also allows us to drop the third argument. For the case where we want to hold a reference on the inode a xfs_trans_ijoin_ref wrapper is added which does the IHOLD and marks the inode for needing an xfs_iput. In addition to the cleaner interface to the caller this also simplifies the implementation. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

* xfs: simplify log item descriptor trackingChristoph Hellwig2010-07-261-69/+131
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we track log item descriptor belonging to a transaction using a complex opencoded chunk allocator. This code has been there since day one and seems to work around the lack of an efficient slab allocator. This patch replaces it with dynamically allocated log item descriptors from a dedicated slab pool, linked to the transaction by a linked list. This allows to greatly simplify the log item descriptor tracking to the point where it's just a couple hundred lines in xfs_trans.c instead of a separate file. The external API has also been simplified while we're at it - the xfs_trans_add_item and xfs_trans_del_item functions to add/ delete items from a transaction have been simplified to the bare minium, and the xfs_trans_find_item function is replaced with a direct dereference of the li_desc field. All debug code walking the list of log items in a transaction is down to a simple list_for_each_entry. Note that we could easily use a singly linked list here instead of the double linked list from list.h as the fastpath only does deletion from sequential traversal. But given that we don't have one available as a library function yet I use the list.h functions for simplicity.

* xfs: Introduce delayed logging core codeDave Chinner2010-05-241-6/+97

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: Improve scalability of busy extent trackingDave Chinner2010-05-241-30/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we free a metadata extent, we record it in the per-AG busy extent array so that it is not re-used before the freeing transaction hits the disk. This array is fixed size, so when it overflows we make further allocation transactions synchronous because we cannot track more freed extents until those transactions hit the disk and are completed. Under heavy mixed allocation and freeing workloads with large log buffers, we can overflow this array quite easily. Further, the array is sparsely populated, which means that inserts need to search for a free slot, and array searches often have to search many more slots that are actually used to check all the busy extents. Quite inefficient, really. To enable this aspect of extent freeing to scale better, we need a structure that can grow dynamically. While in other areas of XFS we have used radix trees, the extents being freed are at random locations on disk so are better suited to being indexed by an rbtree. So, use a per-AG rbtree indexed by block number to track busy extents. This incures a memory allocation when marking an extent busy, but should not occur too often in low memory situations. This should scale to an arbitrary number of extents so should not be a limitation for features such as in-memory aggregation of transactions. However, there are still situations where we can't avoid allocating busy extents (such as allocation from the AGFL). To minimise the overhead of such occurences, we need to avoid doing a synchronous log force while holding the AGF locked to ensure that the previous transactions are safely on disk before we use the extent. We can do this by marking the transaction doing the allocation as synchronous rather issuing a log force. Because of the locking involved and the ordering of transactions, the synchronous transaction provides the same guarantees as a synchronous log force because it ensures that all the prior transactions are already on disk when the synchronous transaction hits the disk. i.e. it preserves the free->allocate order of the extent correctly in recovery. By doing this, we avoid holding the AGF locked while log writes are in progress, hence reducing the length of time the lock is held and therefore we increase the rate at which we can allocate and free from the allocation group, thereby increasing overall throughput. The only problem with this approach is that when a metadata buffer is marked stale (e.g. a directory block is removed), then buffer remains pinned and locked until the log goes to disk. The issue here is that if that stale buffer is reallocated in a subsequent transaction, the attempt to lock that buffer in the transaction will hang waiting the log to go to disk to unlock and unpin the buffer. Hence if someone tries to lock a pinned, stale, locked buffer we need to push on the log to get it unlocked ASAP. Effectively we are trading off a guaranteed log force for a much less common trigger for log force to occur. Ideally we should not reallocate busy extents. That is a much more complex fix to the problem as it involves direct intervention in the allocation btree searches in many places. This is left to a future set of modifications. Finally, now that we track busy extents in allocated memory, we don't need the descriptors in the transaction structure to point to them. We can replace the complex busy chunk infrastructure with a simple linked list of busy extents. This allows us to remove a large chunk of code, making the overall change a net reduction in code size.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bring the ail lock inside the struct xfs_ail.
