2014-06-06xfs: Fix rounding in xfs_alloc_fix_len()Jan Kara1-10/+8
Rounding in xfs_alloc_fix_len() is wrong. As the comment states, the result should be a number of a form (k*prod+mod) however due to sign mistake the result is different. As a result allocations on raid arrays could be misaligned in some cases. This also seems to fix occasional assertion failure: XFS_WANT_CORRUPTED_GOTO(rlen <= flen, error0) in xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_size(). Also add an assertion that the result of xfs_alloc_fix_len() is of expected form.

2014-06-06xfs: kill xfs_buf_geterror()Dave Chinner1-1/+0
Most of the callers are just calling ASSERT(!xfs_buf_geterror()) which means they are checking for bp->b_error == 0. If bp is null in this case, we will assert fail, and hence it's no different in result to oopsing because of a null bp. In some cases, errors have already been checked for or the function returning the buffer can't return a buffer with an error, so it's just a redundant assert. Either way, the assert can either be removed. The other two non-assert callers can just test for a buffer and error properly.

2013-10-23xfs: decouple inode and bmap btree header filesDave Chinner1-4/+1
Currently the xfs_inode.h header has a dependency on the definition of the BMAP btree records as the inode fork includes an array of xfs_bmbt_rec_host_t objects in it's definition. Move all the btree format definitions from xfs_btree.h, xfs_bmap_btree.h, xfs_alloc_btree.h and xfs_ialloc_btree.h to xfs_format.h to continue the process of centralising the on-disk format definitions. With this done, the xfs inode definitions are no longer dependent on btree header files.

2013-10-23xfs: decouple log and transaction headersDave Chinner1-2/+4
xfs_trans.h has a dependency on xfs_log.h for a couple of structures. Most code that does transactions doesn't need to know anything about the log, but this dependency means that they have to include xfs_log.h. Decouple the xfs_trans.h and xfs_log.h header files and clean up the includes to be in dependency order. In doing this, remove the direct include of xfs_trans_reserve.h from xfs_trans.h so that we remove the dependency between xfs_trans.h and xfs_mount.h. Hence the xfs_trans.h include can be moved to the indicate the actual dependencies other header files have on it. Note that these are kernel only header files, so this does not translate to any userspace changes at all.

2013-10-23xfs: create a shared header file for format-related informationDave Chinner1-1/+2
All of the buffer operations structures are needed to be exported for xfs_db, so move them all to a common location rather than spreading them all over the place. They are verifying the on-disk format, so while xfs_format.h might be a good place, it is not part of the on disk format. Hence we need to create a new header file that we centralise these related definitions. Start by moving the bffer operations structures, and then also move all the other definitions that have crept into xfs_log_format.h and xfs_format.h as there was no other shared header file to put them in.

2013-05-20xfs: Avoid pathological backwards allocationJan Kara1-6/+18
Writing a large file using direct IO in 16 MB chunks sometimes results in a pathological allocation pattern where 16 MB chunks of large free extent are allocated to a file in a reversed order. So extents of a file look for example as: ext logical physical expected length flags 0 0 13 4550656 1 4550656 188136807 4550668 12562432 2 17113088 200699240 200699238 622592 3 17735680 182046055 201321831 4096 4 17739776 182041959 182050150 4096 5 17743872 182037863 182046054 4096 6 17747968 182033767 182041958 4096 7 17752064 182029671 182037862 4096 ... 6757 45400064 154381644 154389835 4096 6758 45404160 154377548 154385739 4096 6759 45408256 252951571 154381643 73728 eof This happens because XFS_ALLOCTYPE_THIS_BNO allocation fails (the last extent in the file cannot be further extended) so we fall back to XFS_ALLOCTYPE_NEAR_BNO allocation which picks end of a large free extent as the best place to continue the file. Since the chunk at the end of the free extent again cannot be further extended, this behavior repeats until the whole free extent is consumed in a reversed order. For data allocations this backward allocation isn't beneficial so make xfs_alloc_compute_diff() pick start of a free extent instead of its end for them. That avoids the backward allocation pattern. See thread at http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2013-03/msg00144.html for more details about the reproduction case and why this solution was chosen. Based on idea by Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>.

2013-04-21xfs: add CRC checks to the AGFDave Chinner1-24/+56
The AGF already has some self identifying fields (e.g. the sequence number) so we only need to add the uuid to it to identify the filesystem it belongs to. The location is fixed based on the sequence number, so there's no need to add a block number, either. Hence the only additional fields are the CRC and LSN fields. These are unlogged, so place some space between the end of the logged fields and them so that future expansion of the AGF for logged fields can be placed adjacent to the existing logged fields and hence not complicate the field-derived range based logging we currently have.

2012-11-15xfs: convert buffer verifiers to an ops structure.Dave Chinner1-12/+16
To separate the verifiers from iodone functions and associate read and write verifiers at the same time, introduce a buffer verifier operations structure to the xfs_buf. This avoids the need for assigning the write verifier, clearing the iodone function and re-running ioend processing in the read verifier, and gets rid of the nasty "b_pre_io" name for the write verifier function pointer. If we ever need to, it will also be easier to add further content specific callbacks to a buffer with an ops structure in place. We also avoid needing to export verifier functions, instead we can simply export the ops structures for those that are needed outside the function they are defined in. This patch also fixes a directory block readahead verifier issue it exposed. This patch also adds ops callbacks to the inode/alloc btree blocks initialised by growfs. These will need more work before they will work with CRCs. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Phil White <pwhite@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Myers <bpm@sgi.com>

Hence factor the read verifier functions and add a new write verifier wrapper that is used as the callback. This is done as one large patch for all verifiers rather than one patch per verifier as the change is largely mechanical. This includes hooking up the write verifier via the read verifier function.

2012-11-15xfs: make buffer read verication an IO completion functionDave Chinner1-2/+2
Add a verifier function callback capability to the buffer read interfaces. This will be used by the callers to supply a function that verifies the contents of the buffer when it is read from disk. This patch does not provide callback functions, but simply modifies the interfaces to allow them to be called. The reason for adding this to the read interfaces is that it is very difficult to tell fom the outside is a buffer was just read from disk or whether we just pulled it out of cache. Supplying a callbck allows the buffer cache to use it's internal knowledge of the buffer to execute it only when the buffer is read from disk. It is intended that the verifier functions will mark the buffer with an EFSCORRUPTED error when verification fails. This allows the reading context to distinguish a verification error from an IO error, and potentially take further actions on the buffer (e.g. attempt repair) based on the error reported.

2012-10-18xfs: move allocation stack switch up to xfs_bmapi_allocateDave Chinner1-41/+1
Switching stacks are xfs_alloc_vextent can cause deadlocks when we run out of worker threads on the allocation workqueue. This can occur because xfs_bmap_btalloc can make multiple calls to xfs_alloc_vextent() and even if xfs_alloc_vextent() fails it can return with the AGF locked in the current allocation transaction. If we then need to make another allocation, and all the allocation worker contexts are exhausted because the are blocked waiting for the AGF lock, holder of the AGF cannot get it's xfs-alloc_vextent work completed to release the AGF. Hence allocation effectively deadlocks. To avoid this, move the stack switch one layer up to xfs_bmapi_allocate() so that all of the allocation attempts in a single switched stack transaction occur in a single worker context. This avoids the problem of an allocation being blocked waiting for a worker thread whilst holding the AGF.

2012-03-27xfs: fix fstrim offset calculationsDave Chinner1-1/+1
xfs_ioc_fstrim() doesn't treat the incoming offset and length correctly. It treats them as a filesystem block address, rather than a disk address. This is wrong because the range passed in is a linear representation, while the filesystem block address notation is a sparse representation. Hence we cannot convert the range direct to filesystem block units and then use that for calculating the range to trim. While this sounds dangerous, the problem is limited to calculating what AGs need to be trimmed. The code that calcuates the actual ranges to trim gets the right result (i.e. only ever discards free space), even though it uses the wrong ranges to limit what is trimmed. Hence this is not a bug that endangers user data. Fix this by treating the range as a disk address range and use the appropriate functions to convert the range into the desired formats for calculations. Further, fix the first free extent lookup (the longest) to actually find the largest free extent. Currently this lookup uses a <= lookup, which results in finding the extent to the left of the largest because we can never get an exact match on the largest extent. This is due to the fact that while we know it's size, we don't know it's location and so the exact match fails and we move one record to the left to get the next largest extent. Instead, use a >= search so that the lookup returns the largest extent regardless of the fact we don't get an exact match on it.

2012-03-22xfs: introduce an allocation workqueueDave Chinner1-1/+33
We currently have significant issues with the amount of stack that allocation in XFS uses, especially in the writeback path. We can easily consume 4k of stack between mapping the page, manipulating the bmap btree and allocating blocks from the free list. Not to mention btree block readahead and other functionality that issues IO in the allocation path. As a result, we can no longer fit allocation in the writeback path in the stack space provided on x86_64. To alleviate this problem, introduce an allocation workqueue and move all allocations to a seperate context. This can be easily added as an interposing layer into xfs_alloc_vextent(), which takes a single argument structure and does not return until the allocation is complete or has failed. To do this, add a work structure and a completion to the allocation args structure. This allows xfs_alloc_vextent to queue the args onto the workqueue and wait for it to be completed by the worker. This can be done completely transparently to the caller. The worker function needs to ensure that it sets and clears the PF_TRANS flag appropriately as it is being run in an active transaction context. Work can also be queued in a memory reclaim context, so a rescuer is needed for the workqueue.

2011-05-24xfs: do not discard alloc btree blocksChristoph Hellwig1-3/+6
Blocks for the allocation btree are allocated from and released to the AGFL, and thus frequently reused. Even worse we do not have an easy way to avoid using an AGFL block when it is discarded due to the simple FILO list of free blocks, and thus can frequently stall on blocks that are currently undergoing a discard. Add a flag to the busy extent tracking structure to skip the discard for allocation btree blocks. In normal operation these blocks are reused frequently enough that there is no need to discard them anyway, but if they spill over to the allocation btree as part of a balance we "leak" blocks that we would otherwise discard. We could fix this by adding another flag and keeping these block in the rbtree even after they aren't busy any more so that we could discard them when they migrate out of the AGFL. Given that this would cause significant overhead I don't think it's worthwile for now. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
2011-05-24xfs: add online discard supportChristoph Hellwig1-3/+25
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>
2011-05-19xfs: obey minleft values during extent allocation correctlyDave Chinner1-1/+0
When allocating an extent that is long enough to consume the remaining free space in an AG, we need to ensure that the allocation leaves enough space in the AG for any subsequent bmap btree blocks that are needed to track the new extent. These have to be allocated in the same AG as we only reserve enough blocks in an allocation transaction for modification of the freespace trees in a single AG. xfs_alloc_fix_minleft() has been considering blocks on the AGFL as free blocks available for extent and bmbt block allocation, which is not correct - blocks on the AGFL are there exclusively for the use of the free space btrees. As a result, when minleft is less than the number of blocks on the AGFL, xfs_alloc_fix_minleft() does not trim the given extent to leave minleft blocks available for bmbt allocation, and hence we can fail allocation during bmbt record insertion.

2011-04-28xfs: exact busy extent trackingChristoph Hellwig1-155/+218
Update the extent tree in case we have to reuse a busy extent, so that it always is kept uptodate. This is done by replacing the busy list searches with a new xfs_alloc_busy_reuse helper, which updates the busy extent tree in case of a reuse. This allows us to allow reusing metadata extents unconditionally, and thus avoid log forces especially for allocation btree blocks.

2011-04-28xfs: do not immediately reuse busy extent rangesChristoph Hellwig1-79/+328
Every time we reallocate a busy extent, we cause a synchronous log force to occur to ensure the freeing transaction is on disk before we continue and use the newly allocated extent. This is extremely sub-optimal as we have to mark every transaction with blocks that get reused as synchronous. Instead of searching the busy extent list after deciding on the extent to allocate, check each candidate extent during the allocation decisions as to whether they are in the busy list. If they are in the busy list, we trim the busy range out of the extent we have found and determine if that trimmed range is still OK for allocation. In many cases, this check can be incorporated into the allocation extent alignment code which already does trimming of the found extent before determining if it is a valid candidate for allocation.

2011-04-28xfs: optimize AGFL refillsChristoph Hellwig1-27/+4
While we need to make sure we do not reuse busy extents, there is no need to force out busy extents when moving them between the AGFL and the freespace btree as we still take care of that when doing the real allocation. To avoid the log force when just moving extents from the different free space tracking structures, move the busy search out of xfs_alloc_get_freelist into the callers that need it, and move the busy list insert from xfs_free_ag_extent which is used both by AGFL refills and real allocation to xfs_free_extent, which is only used by the latter.
