2012-11-15xfs: convert buffer verifiers to an ops structure.Dave Chinner
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>

2012-11-15xfs: add pre-write metadata buffer verifier callbacksDave Chinner
These verifiers are essentially the same code as the read verifiers, but do not require ioend processing. 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. Hooking up the write verifier for buffers obtained via xfs_trans_get_buf() will be done in a separate patch as that touches code in many different places rather than just the verifier functions.

2012-11-15xfs: verify superblocks as they are read from diskDave Chinner
Add a superblock verify callback function and pass it into the buffer read functions. Remove the now redundant verification code that is currently in use. Adding verification shows that secondary superblocks never have their "sb_inprogress" flag cleared by mkfs.xfs, so when validating the secondary superblocks during a grow operation we have to avoid checking this field. Even if we fix mkfs, we will still have to ignore this field for verification purposes unless a version of mkfs that does not have this bug was used.

2012-11-15xfs: uncached buffer reads need to return an errorDave Chinner
With verification being done as an IO completion callback, different errors can be returned from a read. Uncached reads only return a buffer or NULL on failure, which means the verification error cannot be returned to the caller. Split the error handling for these reads into two - a failure to get a buffer will still return NULL, but a read error will return a referenced buffer with b_error set rather than NULL. The caller is responsible for checking the error state of the buffer returned.

2012-11-15xfs: make buffer read verication an IO completion functionDave Chinner
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.

2012-11-08xfs: add background scanning to clear eofblocks inodesBrian Foster
Create a new mount workqueue and delayed_work to enable background scanning and freeing of eofblocks inodes. The scanner kicks in once speculative preallocation occurs and stops requeueing itself when no eofblocks inodes exist. The scan interval is based on the new 'speculative_prealloc_lifetime' tunable (default to 5m). The background scanner performs unfiltered, best effort scans (which skips inodes under lock contention or with a dirty cache mapping).

2012-10-17xfs: Bring some sanity to log unmountingDave Chinner
When unmounting the filesystem, there are lots of operations that need to be done in a specific order, and they are spread across across a couple of functions. We have to drain the AIL before we write the unmount record, and we have to shut down the background log work before we do either of them. But this is all split haphazardly across xfs_unmountfs() and xfs_log_unmount(). Move all the AIL flushing and log manipulations to xfs_log_unmount() so that the responisbilities of each function is clear and the operations they perform obvious.

Instead of starting and stopping background work on the xfs_mount_wq all at the same time, separate them to where they really are needed to start and stop. The xfs_sync_worker, only needs to be started after all the mount processing has completed successfully, while it needs to be stopped before the log is unmounted. The xfs_reclaim_worker is started on demand, and can be stopped before the unmount process does it's own inode reclaim pass. The xfs_flush_inodes work is run on demand, and so we really only need to ensure that it has stopped running before we start processing an unmount, freeze or remount,ro.

2012-07-29xfs: wait for the write the superblock on unmountMark Tinguely
v2: Add the xfs_buf_lock to xfs_quiesce_attr(). Add explaination why xfs_buf_lock() is used to wait for write. xfs_wait_buftarg() does not wait for the completion of the write of the uncached superblock. This write can race with the shutdown of the log and causes a panic if the write does not win the race. During the log write, xfsaild_push() will lock the buffer and set the XBF_ASYNC flag. Because the XBF_FLAG is set, complete() is not performed on the buffer's iowait entry, we cannot call xfs_buf_iowait() to wait for the write to complete. The buffer's lock is held until the write is complete, so we can block on a xfs_buf_lock() request to be notified that the write is complete.

2012-05-14xfs: implement freezing by emptying the AILChristoph Hellwig
Now that we write back all metadata either synchronously or through the AIL we can simply implement metadata freezing in terms of emptying the AIL. The implementation for this is fairly simply and straight-forward: A new routine is added that asks the xfsaild to push the AIL to the end and waits for it to complete and send a wakeup. The routine will then loop if the AIL is not actually empty, and continue to do so until the AIL is compeltely empty. We keep an inode reclaim pass in the freeze process to avoid having memory pressure have to reclaim inodes that require dirtying the filesystem to be reclaimed after the freeze has completed. This means we can also treat unmount in the exact same way as freeze. As an upside we can now remove the radix tree based inode writeback and xfs_unmountfs_writesb.

2011-01-04xfs: dynamic speculative EOF preallocationDave Chinner
Currently the size of the speculative preallocation during delayed allocation is fixed by either the allocsize mount option of a default size. We are seeing a lot of cases where we need to recommend using the allocsize mount option to prevent fragmentation when buffered writes land in the same AG. Rather than using a fixed preallocation size by default (up to 64k), make it dynamic by basing it on the current inode size. That way the EOF preallocation will increase as the file size increases. Hence for streaming writes we are much more likely to get large preallocations exactly when we need it to reduce fragementation.

Hence as the filesystem nears full, the maximum dynamic prealloc size іs reduced according to this table (based on 4k block size): freespace max prealloc size >5% full extent (8GB) 4-5% 2GB (8GB >> 2) 3-4% 1GB (8GB >> 3) 2-3% 512MB (8GB >> 4) 1-2% 256MB (8GB >> 5) <1% 128MB (8GB >> 6) This should reduce the amount of space held in speculative preallocation for such cases. The allocsize mount option turns off the dynamic behaviour and fixes the prealloc size to whatever the mount option specifies. i.e. the behaviour is unchanged.

2010-11-10xfs: fix per-ag reference counting in inode reclaim tree walkingDave Chinner
The walk fails to decrement the per-ag reference count when the non-blocking walk fails to obtain the per-ag reclaim lock, leading to an assert failure on debug kernels when unmounting a filesystem.

2010-10-18xfs: convert buffer cache hash to rbtreeDave Chinner
The buffer cache hash is showing typical hash scalability problems. In large scale testing the number of cached items growing far larger than the hash can efficiently handle. Hence we need to move to a self-scaling cache indexing mechanism. I have selected rbtrees for indexing becuse they can have O(log n) search scalability, and insert and remove cost is not excessive, even on large trees. Hence we should be able to cache large numbers of buffers without incurring the excessive cache miss search penalties that the hash is imposing on us. To ensure we still have parallel access to the cache, we need multiple trees. Rather than hashing the buffers by disk address to select a tree, it seems more sensible to separate trees by typical access patterns. Most operations use buffers from within a single AG at a time, so rather than searching lots of different lists, separate the buffer indexes out into per-AG rbtrees. This means that searches during metadata operation have a much higher chance of hitting cache resident nodes, and that updates of the tree are less likely to disturb trees being accessed on other CPUs doing independent operations.

2010-10-18xfs: serialise inode reclaim within an AGDave Chinner
Memory reclaim via shrinkers has a terrible habit of having N+M concurrent shrinker executions (N = num CPUs, M = num kswapds) all trying to shrink the same cache. When the cache they are all working on is protected by a single spinlock, massive contention an slowdowns occur. Wrap the per-ag inode caches with a reclaim mutex to serialise reclaim access to the AG. This will block concurrent reclaim in each AG but still allow reclaim to scan multiple AGs concurrently. Allow shrinkers to move on to the next AG if it can't get the lock, and if we can't get any AG, then start blocking on locks. To prevent reclaimers from continually scanning the same inodes in each AG, add a cursor that tracks where the last reclaim got up to and start from that point on the next reclaim. This should avoid only ever scanning a small number of inodes at the satart of each AG and not making progress. If we have a non-shrinker based reclaim pass, ignore the cursor and reset it to zero once we are done. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
