2010-04-29xfs: add a shrinker to background inode reclaimDave Chinner
On low memory boxes or those with highmem, kernel can OOM before the background reclaims inodes via xfssyncd. Add a shrinker to run inode reclaim so that it inode reclaim is expedited when memory is low. This is more complex than it needs to be because the VM folk don't want a context added to the shrinker infrastructure. Hence we need to add a global list of XFS mount structures so the shrinker can traverse them. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

2009-12-11xfs: simplify inode teardownChristoph Hellwig
Currently the reclaim code for the case where we don't reclaim the final reclaim is overly complicated. We know that the inode is clean but instead of just directly reclaiming the clean inode we go through the whole process of marking the inode reclaimable just to directly reclaim it from the calling context. Besides being overly complicated this introduces a race where iget could recycle an inode between marked reclaimable and actually being reclaimed leading to panics. This patch gets rid of the existing reclaim path, and replaces it with a simple call to xfs_ireclaim if the inode was clean. While we're at it we also use the slightly more lax xfs_inode_clean check we'd use later to determine if we need to flush the inode here. Finally get rid of xfs_reclaim function and place the remaining small bits of reclaim code directly into xfs_fs_destroy_inode.

2009-08-17xfs: fix locking in xfs_iget_cache_hitChristoph Hellwig
The locking in xfs_iget_cache_hit currently has numerous problems: - we clear the reclaim tag without i_flags_lock which protects modifications to it - we call inode_init_always which can sleep with pag_ici_lock held (this is oss.sgi.com BZ #819) - we acquire and drop i_flags_lock a lot and thus provide no consistency between the various flags we set/clear under it This patch fixes all that with a major revamp of the locking in the function. The new version acquires i_flags_lock early and only drops it once we need to call into inode_init_always or before calling xfs_ilock. This patch fixes a bug seen in the wild where we race modifying the reclaim tag.

2009-06-08xfs: remove SYNC_BDFLUSHChristoph Hellwig
SYNC_BDFLUSH is a leftover from IRIX and rather misnamed for todays code. Make xfs_sync_fsdata and xfs_dq_sync use the SYNC_TRYLOCK flag for not blocking on logs just as the inode sync code already does. For xfs_sync_fsdata it's a trivial 1:1 replacement, but for xfs_qm_sync I use the opportunity to decouple the non-blocking lock case from the different flushing modes, similar to the inode sync code.

2009-06-08xfs: remove SYNC_IOWAITChristoph Hellwig
We want to wait for all I/O to finish when we do data integrity syncs. So there is no reason to keep SYNC_WAIT separate from SYNC_IOWAIT. This causes a little change in behaviour for the ENOSPC flushing code which now does a second submission and wait of buffered I/O, but that should finish ASAP as we already did an asynchronous writeout earlier.

2009-06-08xfs: split xfs_sync_inodesChristoph Hellwig
xfs_sync_inodes is used to write back either file data or inode metadata. In general we always do these separately, except for one fishy case in xfs_fs_put_super that does both. So separate xfs_sync_inodes into separate xfs_sync_data and xfs_sync_attr functions. In xfs_fs_put_super we first call the data sync and then the attr sync as that was the previous order. The moved log force in that path doesn't make a difference because we will force the log again as part of the real unmount process. The filesystem readonly checks are not performed by the new function but instead moved into the callers, given that most callers alredy have it further up in the stack. Also add debug checks that we do not pass in incorrect flags in the new xfs_sync_data and xfs_sync_attr function and fix the one place that did pass in a wrong flag. Also remove a comment mentioning xfs_sync_inodes that has been incorrect for a while because we always take either the iolock or ilock in the sync path these days.

2009-04-06xfs: block callers of xfs_flush_inodes() correctlyDave Chinner
xfs_flush_inodes() currently uses a magic timeout to wait for some inodes to be flushed before returning. This isn't really reliable but used to be the best that could be done due to deadlock potential of waiting for the entire flush. Now the inode flush is safe to execute while we hold page and inode locks, we can wait for all the inodes to flush synchronously. Convert the wait mechanism to a completion to do this efficiently. This should remove all remaining spurious ENOSPC errors from the delayed allocation reservation path. This is extracted almost line for line from a larger patch from Mikulas Patocka.

2009-04-06xfs: make inode flush at ENOSPC synchronousDave Chinner
When we are writing to a single file and hit ENOSPC, we trigger a background flush of the inode and try again. Because we hold page locks and the iolock, the flush won't proceed until after we release these locks. This occurs once we've given up and ENOSPC has been reported. Hence if this one is the only dirty inode in the system, we'll get an ENOSPC prematurely. To fix this, remove the async flush from the allocation routines and move it to the top of the write path where we can do a synchronous flush and retry the write again. Only retry once as a second ENOSPC indicates that we really are ENOSPC. This avoids a page cache deadlock when trying to do this flush synchronously in the allocation layer that was identified by Mikulas Patocka.

2009-04-06xfs: use xfs_sync_inodes() for device flushingDave Chinner
Currently xfs_device_flush calls sync_blockdev() which is a no-op for XFS as all it's metadata is held in a different address to the one sync_blockdev() works on. Call xfs_sync_inodes() instead to flush all the delayed allocation blocks out. To do this as efficiently as possible, do it via two passes - one to do an async flush of all the dirty blocks and a second to wait for all the IO to complete. This requires some modification to the xfs-sync_inodes_ag() flush code to do efficiently. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
