* writeback: remove unused nonblocking and congestion checksWu Fengguang2009-12-031-12/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - no one is calling wb_writeback and write_cache_pages with wbc.nonblocking=1 any more - lumpy pageout will want to do nonblocking writeback without the congestion wait So remove the congestion checks as suggested by Chris.

* writeback: account IO throttling wait as iowaitWu Fengguang2009-10-091-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It makes sense to do IOWAIT when someone is blocked due to IO throttle, as suggested by Kame and Peter. There is an old comment for not doing IOWAIT on throttle, however it has been mismatching the code for a long time. If we stop accounting IOWAIT for 2.6.32, it could be an undesirable behavior change. So restore the io_schedule.

* writeback: pass in super_block to bdi_start_writeback()Jens Axboe2009-09-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes we only want to write pages from a specific super_block, so allow that to be passed in. This fixes a problem with commit 56a131dcf7ed36c3c6e36bea448b674ea85ed5bb causing writeback on all super_blocks on a bdi, where we only really want to sync a specific sb from writeback_inodes_sb().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Treat bdi_start_writeback(0) as a special request to do background write, and stop such work when we are below the background dirty threshold. Also simplify the (nr_pages <= 0) checks. Since we already pass in nr_pages=LONG_MAX for WB_SYNC_ALL and background writes, we don't need to worry about it being decreased to zero.

| * writeback: balance_dirty_pages() shall write more than dirtied pagesWu Fengguang2009-09-251-6/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some filesystem may choose to write much more than ratelimit_pages before calling balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_nr(). So it is safer to determine number to write based on real number of dirtied pages. Otherwise it is possible that loop { btrfs_file_write(): dirty 1024 pages balance_dirty_pages(): write up to 48 pages (= ratelimit_pages * 1.5) } in which the writeback rate cannot keep up with dirty rate, and the dirty pages go all the way beyond dirty_thresh. The increased write_chunk may make the dirtier more bumpy. So filesystems shall be take care not to dirty too much at a time (eg. > 4MB) without checking the ratelimit.

It's valuable for the hwpoison code to know whether one bad page can be dropped without losing data. It mainly judges by testing the PG_dirty bit after taking the page lock. So it becomes important that the dirtying of page and the marking of dirtiness are both done inside the page lock. Which is a common practice, but sadly not a rule. The noticeable exceptions are - mapped pages - pages with buffer_heads The above pages could go dirty at any time. Fortunately the hwpoison will unmap the page and release the buffer_heads beforehand anyway. Many other types of pages (eg. metadata pages) can also be dirtied at will by their owners, the hwpoison code cannot do meaningful things to them anyway. Only the dirtiness of pagecache pages owned by regular files are interested. v2: AK: Add comment about set_page_dirty rules (suggested by Peter Zijlstra) Acked-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh.dickins@tiscali.co.uk> Reviewed-by: WANG Cong <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

So the anon pages shall not be counted in both usage scenarios. Also rename to _reclaimable_pages: now they are counting the possibly reclaimable lru pages. It can greatly (and correctly) increase the slab scan rate under high memory pressure (when most file pages have been reclaimed and swap is full/absent), thus reduce false OOM kills.

* | mm: prevent balance_dirty_pages() from doing too much workRichard Kennedy2009-06-301-1/+4
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | balance_dirty_pages can overreact and move all of the dirty pages to writeback unnecessarily. balance_dirty_pages makes its decision to throttle based on the number of dirty plus writeback pages that are over the calculated limit,so it will continue to move pages even when there are plenty of pages in writeback and less than the threshold still dirty. This allows it to overshoot its limits and move all the dirty pages to writeback while waiting for the drives to catch up and empty the writeback list. A simple fio test easily demonstrates this problem. fio --name=f1 --directory=/disk1 --size=2G -rw=write --name=f2 --directory=/disk2 --size=1G --rw=write --startdelay=10 This is the simplest fix I could find, but I'm not entirely sure that it alone will be enough for all cases. But it certainly is an improvement on my desktop machine writing to 2 disks. Do we need something more for machines with large arrays where bdi_threshold * number_of_drives is greater than the dirty_ratio ?

The iozone benchmarks are performed on a 1200M file, with 8GB ram. iozone -i 0 -i 1 -i 2 -i 3 -i 4 -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m -b tmp.xls iozone -B -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m -b tmp.xls The performance regression is triggered by commit 1cf6e7d83bf3(mm: task dirty accounting fix), which makes more correct/thorough dirty accounting. The default 5/10 dirty ratios were picked (a) with the old dirty logic and (b) largely at random and (c) designed to be aggressive. In particular, that (a) means that having fixed some of the dirty accounting, maybe the real bug is now that it was always too aggressive, just hidden by an accounting issue. The enlarged 10/20 dirty ratios are just about enough to fix the regression.

Additionally, there is some inconsistency about when task_dirty_inc is called. It is used for dirty balancing, however it even gets called for __set_page_dirty_no_writeback.

* Fix page writeback thinko, causing Berkeley DB slowdownNick Piggin2009-02-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A bug was introduced into write_cache_pages cyclic writeout by commit 31a12666d8f0c22235297e1c1575f82061480029 ("mm: write_cache_pages cyclic fix"). The intention (and comments) is that we should cycle back and look for more dirty pages at the beginning of the file if there is no more work to be done. But the !done condition was dropped from the test. This means that any time the page writeout loop breaks (eg. due to nr_to_write == 0), we will set index to 0, then goto again. This will set done_index to index, then find done is set, so will proceed to the end of the function. When updating mapping->writeback_index for cyclic writeout, we now use done_index == 0, so we're always cycling back to 0. This seemed to be causing random mmap writes (slapadd and iozone) to start writing more pages from the LRU and writeout would slowdown, and caused bugzilla entry http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12604 about Berkeley DB slowing down dramatically. With this patch, iozone random write performance is increased nearly 5x on my system (iozone -B -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m on ext2).

* mm: add dirty_background_bytes and dirty_bytes sysctlsDavid Rientjes2009-01-061-16/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change introduces two new sysctls to /proc/sys/vm: dirty_background_bytes and dirty_bytes. dirty_background_bytes is the counterpart to dirty_background_ratio and dirty_bytes is the counterpart to dirty_ratio. With growing memory capacities of individual machines, it's no longer sufficient to specify dirty thresholds as a percentage of the amount of dirtyable memory over the entire system. dirty_background_bytes and dirty_bytes specify quantities of memory, in bytes, that represent the dirty limits for the entire system. If either of these values is set, its value represents the amount of dirty memory that is needed to commence either background or direct writeback. When a `bytes' or `ratio' file is written, its counterpart becomes a function of the written value. For example, if dirty_bytes is written to be 8096, 8K of memory is required to commence direct writeback. dirty_ratio is then functionally equivalent to 8K / the amount of dirtyable memory: dirtyable_memory = free pages + mapped pages + file cache dirty_background_bytes = dirty_background_ratio * dirtyable_memory -or- dirty_background_ratio = dirty_background_bytes / dirtyable_memory AND dirty_bytes = dirty_ratio * dirtyable_memory -or- dirty_ratio = dirty_bytes / dirtyable_memory Only one of dirty_background_bytes and dirty_background_ratio may be specified at a time, and only one of dirty_bytes and dirty_ratio may be specified. When one sysctl is written, the other appears as 0 when read. The `bytes' files operate on a page size granularity since dirty limits are compared with ZVC values, which are in page units. Prior to this change, the minimum dirty_ratio was 5 as implemented by get_dirty_limits() although /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio would show any user written value between 0 and 100. This restriction is maintained, but dirty_bytes has a lower limit of only one page. Also prior to this change, the dirty_background_ratio could not equal or exceed dirty_ratio. This restriction is maintained in addition to restricting dirty_background_bytes. If either background threshold equals or exceeds that of the dirty threshold, it is implicitly set to half the dirty threshold.

* mm: write_cache_pages integrity fixNick Piggin2009-01-061-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In write_cache_pages, nr_to_write is heeded even for data-integrity syncs, so the function will return success after writing out nr_to_write pages, even if that was not sufficient to guarantee data integrity. The callers tend to set it to values that could break data interity semantics easily in practice. For example, nr_to_write can be set to mapping->nr_pages * 2, however if a file has a single, dirty page, then fsync is called, subsequent pages might be concurrently added and dirtied, then write_cache_pages might writeout two of these newly dirty pages, while not writing out the old page that should have been written out. Fix this by ignoring nr_to_write if it is a data integrity sync. This is a data integrity bug. The reason this has been done in the past is to avoid stalling sync operations behind page dirtiers. "If a file has one dirty page at offset 1000000000000000 then someone does an fsync() and someone else gets in first and starts madly writing pages at offset 0, we want to write that page at 1000000000000000. Somehow." What we do today is return success after an arbitrary amount of pages are written, whether or not we have provided the data-integrity semantics that the caller has asked for. Even this doesn't actually fix all stall cases completely: in the above situation, if the file has a huge number of pages in pagecache (but not dirty), then mapping->nrpages is going to be huge, even if pages are being dirtied. This change does indeed make the possibility of long stalls lager, and that's not a good thing, but lying about data integrity is even worse. We have to either perform the sync, or return -ELINUXISLAME so at least the caller knows what has happened. There are subsequent competing approaches in the works to solve the stall problems properly, without compromising data integrity.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In write_cache_pages, if ret signals a real error, but we still have some pages left in the pagevec, done would be set to 1, but the remaining pages would continue to be processed and ret will be overwritten in the process. It could easily be overwritten with success, and thus success will be returned even if there is an error. Thus the caller is told all writes succeeded, wheras in reality some did not. Fix this by bailing immediately if there is an error, and retaining the first error code. This is a data integrity bug.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We'd like to break out of the loop early in many situations, however the existing code has been setting mapping->writeback_index past the final page in the pagevec lookup for cyclic writeback. This is a problem if we don't process all pages up to the final page. Currently the code mostly keeps writeback_index reasonable and hacked around this by not breaking out of the loop or writing pages outside the range in these cases. Keep track of a real "done index" that enables us to terminate the loop in a much more flexible manner. Needed by the subsequent patch to preserve writepage errors, and then further patches to break out of the loop early for other reasons. However there are no functional changes with this patch alone.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In write_cache_pages, scanned == 1 is supposed to mean that cyclic writeback has circled through zero, thus we should not circle again. However it gets set to 1 after the first successful pagevec lookup. This leads to cases where not enough data gets written. Counterexample: file with first 10 pages dirty, writeback_index == 5, nr_to_write == 10. Then the 5 last pages will be found, and scanned will be set to 1, after writing those out, we will not cycle back to get the first 5. Rework this logic, now we'll always cycle unless we started off from index 0. When cycling, only write out as far as 1 page before the start page from the first cycle (so we don't write parts of the file twice).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.
