It is good to see that interest is increasing in GFS2, and I'd like to thank all the contributors to this patch set. In addition to the usual set of bug fixes and clean ups, there are patches to improve inode creation performance when xattrs are required and some improvements to the transaction code which is intended to help improve scalability after further changes in due course. Journal extent mapping is also updated to make it more efficient and again, this is a foundation for future work in this area. The maximum number of ACLs has been increased to 300 (for a 4k block size) which means that even with a few additional xattrs from selinux, everything should fit within a single fs block. There is also a patch to bring GFS2's own copy of the writepages code up to the same level as the core VFS. Eventually we may be able to merge some of this code, since it is fairly similar.

2014-04-03bdi: avoid oops on device removalJan Kara
After commit 839a8e8660b6 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue") when device is removed while we are writing to it we crash in bdi_writeback_workfn() -> set_worker_desc() because bdi->dev is NULL. This can happen because even though bdi_unregister() cancels all pending flushing work, nothing really prevents new ones from being queued from balance_dirty_pages() or other places. Fix the problem by clearing BDI_registered bit in bdi_unregister() and checking it before scheduling of any flushing work.

2014-04-03backing_dev: fix hung task on syncDerek Basehore
bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() used the mod_delayed_work() function to schedule work to writeback dirty inodes. The problem with this is that it can delay work that is scheduled for immediate execution, such as the work from sync_inodes_sb(). This can happen since mod_delayed_work() can now steal work from a work_queue. This fixes the problem by using queue_delayed_work() instead. This is a regression caused by commit 839a8e8660b6 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue"). The reason that this causes a problem is that laptop-mode will change the delay, dirty_writeback_centisecs, to 60000 (10 minutes) by default. In the case that bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() races with sync_inodes_sb(), sync will be stopped for 10 minutes and trigger a hung task. Even if dirty_writeback_centisecs is not long enough to cause a hung task, we still don't want to delay sync for that long. We fix the problem by using queue_delayed_work() when we want to schedule writeback sometime in future. This function doesn't change the timer if it is already armed. For the same reason, we also change bdi_writeback_workfn() to immediately queue the work again in the case that the work_list is not empty. The same problem can happen if the sync work is run on the rescue worker.

2014-02-22Revert "writeback: do not sync data dirtied after sync start"Jan Kara
This reverts commit c4a391b53a72d2df4ee97f96f78c1d5971b47489. Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> has reported the commit may cause some inodes to be left out from sync(2). This is because we can call redirty_tail() for some inode (which sets i_dirtied_when to current time) after sync(2) has started or similarly requeue_inode() can set i_dirtied_when to current time if writeback had to skip some pages. The real problem is in the functions clobbering i_dirtied_when but fixing that isn't trivial so revert is a safer choice for now.

2014-02-06GFS2: journal data writepages updateSteven Whitehouse
GFS2 has carried what is more or less a copy of the write_cache_pages() for some time. It seems that this copy has slipped behind the core code over time. This patch brings it back uptodate, and in addition adds the tracepoint which would otherwise be missing. We could go further, and eliminate some or all of the code duplication here. The issue is that if we do that, then the function we need to split out from the existing write_cache_pages(), which will look a lot like gfs2_jdata_write_pagevec(), would land up putting quite a lot of extra variables on the stack. I know that has been a problem in the past in the writeback code path, which is why I've hesitated to do it here. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2013-12-14writeback: Fix data corruption on NFSJan Kara
Commit 4f8ad655dbc8 "writeback: Refactor writeback_single_inode()" added a condition to skip clean inode. However this is wrong in WB_SYNC_ALL mode because there we also want to wait for outstanding writeback on possibly clean inode. This was causing occasional data corruption issues on NFS because it uses sync_inode() to make sure all outstanding writes are flushed to the server before truncating the inode and with sync_inode() returning prematurely file was sometimes extended back by an outstanding write after it was truncated. So modify the test to also check for pages under writeback in WB_SYNC_ALL mode.

2013-11-13writeback: do not sync data dirtied after sync startJan Kara
When there are processes heavily creating small files while sync(2) is running, it can easily happen that quite some new files are created between WB_SYNC_NONE and WB_SYNC_ALL pass of sync(2). That can happen especially if there are several busy filesystems (remember that sync traverses filesystems sequentially and waits in WB_SYNC_ALL phase on one fs before starting it on another fs). Because WB_SYNC_ALL pass is slow (e.g. causes a transaction commit and cache flush for each inode in ext3), resulting sync(2) times are rather large. The following script reproduces the problem: function run_writers { for (( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )); do mkdir $1/dir$i for (( j = 0; j < 40000; j++ )); do dd if=/dev/zero of=$1/dir$i/$j bs=4k count=4 &>/dev/null done & done } for dir in "$@"; do run_writers $dir done sleep 40 time sync Fix the problem by disregarding inodes dirtied after sync(2) was called in the WB_SYNC_ALL pass. To allow for this, sync_inodes_sb() now takes a time stamp when sync has started which is used for setting up work for flusher threads. To give some numbers, when above script is run on two ext4 filesystems on simple SATA drive, the average sync time from 10 runs is 267.549 seconds with standard deviation 104.799426. With the patched kernel, the average sync time from 10 runs is 2.995 seconds with standard deviation 0.096.

2013-09-11writeback: fix occasional slow sync(1)Jan Kara
In case when system contains no dirty pages, wakeup_flusher_threads() will submit WB_SYNC_NONE writeback for 0 pages so wb_writeback() exits immediately without doing anything, even though there are dirty inodes in the system. Thus sync(1) will write all the dirty inodes from a WB_SYNC_ALL writeback pass which is slow. Fix the problem by using get_nr_dirty_pages() in wakeup_flusher_threads() instead of calculating number of dirty pages manually. That function also takes number of dirty inodes into account.

2013-07-09writeback: Do not sort b_io list only because of block device inodeJan Kara
It is very likely that block device inode will be part of BDI dirty list as well. However it doesn't make sence to sort inodes on the b_io list just because of this inode (as it contains buffers all over the device anyway). So save some CPU cycles which is valuable since we hold relatively contented wb->list_lock. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2013-07-02sync: don't block the flusher thread waiting on IODave Chinner
When sync does it's WB_SYNC_ALL writeback, it issues data Io and then immediately waits for IO completion. This is done in the context of the flusher thread, and hence completely ties up the flusher thread for the backing device until all the dirty inodes have been synced. On filesystems that are dirtying inodes constantly and quickly, this means the flusher thread can be tied up for minutes per sync call and hence badly affect system level write IO performance as the page cache cannot be cleaned quickly. We already have a wait loop for IO completion for sync(2), so cut this out of the flusher thread and delegate it to wait_sb_inodes(). Hence we can do rapid IO submission, and then wait for it all to complete. Effect of sync on fsmark before the patch: FSUse% Count Size Files/sec App Overhead ..... 0 640000 4096 35154.6 1026984 0 720000 4096 36740.3 1023844 0 800000 4096 36184.6 916599 0 880000 4096 1282.7 1054367 0 960000 4096 3951.3 918773 0 1040000 4096 40646.2 996448 0 1120000 4096 43610.1 895647 0 1200000 4096 40333.1 921048 And a single sync pass took: real 0m52.407s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.090s After the patch, there is no impact on fsmark results, and each individual sync(2) operation run concurrently with the same fsmark workload takes roughly 7s: real 0m6.930s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.039s IOWs, sync is 7-8x faster on a busy filesystem and does not have an adverse impact on ongoing async data write operations.

2013-04-30writeback: set worker desc to identify writeback workers in task dumpsTejun Heo
Writeback has been recently converted to use workqueue instead of its private thread pool implementation. One negative side effect of this conversion is that there's no easy to tell which backing device a writeback work item was working on at the time of task dump, be it sysrq-t, BUG, WARN or whatever, which, according to our writeback brethren, is important in tracking down issues with a lot of mounted file systems on a lot of different devices. This patch restores that information using the new worker description facility. bdi_writeback_workfn() calls set_work_desc() to identify which bdi it's working on. The description is printed out together with the worqueue name and worker function as in the following example dump.

2013-04-01writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueueTejun Heo
Writeback implements its own worker pool - each bdi can be associated with a worker thread which is created and destroyed dynamically. The worker thread for the default bdi is always present and serves as the "forker" thread which forks off worker threads for other bdis. there's no reason for writeback to implement its own worker pool when using unbound workqueue instead is much simpler and more efficient. This patch replaces custom worker pool implementation in writeback with an unbound workqueue. The conversion isn't too complicated but the followings are worth mentioning. * bdi_writeback->last_active, task and wakeup_timer are removed. delayed_work ->dwork is added instead. Explicit timer handling is no longer necessary. Everything works by either queueing / modding / flushing / canceling the delayed_work item. * bdi_writeback_thread() becomes bdi_writeback_workfn() which runs off bdi_writeback->dwork. On each execution, it processes bdi->work_list and reschedules itself if there are more things to do. The function also handles low-mem condition, which used to be handled by the forker thread. If the function is running off a rescuer thread, it only writes out limited number of pages so that the rescuer can serve other bdis too. This preserves the flusher creation failure behavior of the forker thread. * INIT_LIST_HEAD(&bdi->bdi_list) is used to tell bdi_writeback_workfn() about on-going bdi unregistration so that it always drains work_list even if it's running off the rescuer. Note that the original code was broken in this regard. Under memory pressure, a bdi could finish unregistration with non-empty work_list. * The default bdi is no longer special. It now is treated the same as any other bdi and bdi_cap_flush_forker() is removed. * BDI_pending is no longer used. Removed. * Some tracepoints become non-applicable. The following TPs are removed - writeback_nothread, writeback_wake_thread, writeback_wake_forker_thread, writeback_thread_start, writeback_thread_stop. Everything, including devices coming and going away and rescuer operation under simulated memory pressure, seems to work fine in my test setup.

Add tracepoints for page dirtying, writeback_single_inode start, inode dirtying and writeback. For the latter two inode events, a pair of events are defined to denote start and end of the operations (the starting one has _start suffix and the one w/o suffix happens after the operation is complete). These inode ops are FS specific and can be non-trivial and having enclosing tracepoints is useful for external tracers. This is part of tracepoint additions to improve visiblity into dirtying / writeback operations for io tracer and userland. v2: writeback_dirty_inode[_start] TPs may be called for files on pseudo FSes w/ unregistered bdi.

That is writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle() needn't wait for the lock. - writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle() grabs s_umount lock when it want to start writeback, it may bring us deadlock problem when doing umount. In order to fix the problem, ext4 and btrfs implemented their own writeback functions instead of writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle(), but it introduced the redundant code, it is better to implement a new writeback_inodes_sb(_nr)_if_idle(). The name of these two functions is cumbersome, so rename them to try_to_writeback_inodes_sb(_nr). This idea came from Christoph Hellwig. Some code is from the patch of Kamal Mostafa.

2012-11-26writeback: put unused inodes to LRU after writeback completionJan Kara
Commit 169ebd90131b ("writeback: Avoid iput() from flusher thread") removed iget-iput pair from inode writeback. As a side effect, inodes that are dirty during iput_final() call won't be ever added to inode LRU (iput_final() doesn't add dirty inodes to LRU and later when the inode is cleaned there's noone to add the inode there). Thus inodes are effectively unreclaimable until someone looks them up again. The practical effect of this bug is limited by the fact that inodes are pinned by a dentry for long enough that the inode gets cleaned. But still the bug can have nasty consequences leading up to OOM conditions under certain circumstances. Following can easily reproduce the problem: for (( i = 0; i < 1000; i++ )); do mkdir $i for (( j = 0; j < 1000; j++ )); do touch $i/$j echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches done done then one needs to run 'sync; ls -lR' to make inodes reclaimable again. We fix the issue by inserting unused clean inodes into the LRU after writeback finishes in inode_sync_complete().

2012-09-19ext4: fix potential deadlock in ext4_nonda_switch()Theodore Ts'o
In ext4_nonda_switch(), if the file system is getting full we used to call writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle(). The problem is that we can be holding i_mutex already, and this causes a potential deadlock when writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle() when it tries to take s_umount. (See lockdep output below). As it turns out we don't need need to hold s_umount; the fact that we are in the middle of the write(2) system call will keep the superblock pinned. Unfortunately writeback_inodes_sb() checks to make sure s_umount is taken, and the VFS uses a different mechanism for making sure the file system doesn't get unmounted out from under us. The simplest way of dealing with this is to just simply grab s_umount using a trylock, and skip kicking the writeback flusher thread in the very unlikely case that we can't take a read lock on s_umount without blocking. Also, we now check the cirteria for kicking the writeback thread before we decide to whether to fall back to non-delayed writeback, so if there are any outstanding delayed allocation writes, we try to get them resolved as soon as possible.

2012-05-06writeback: Avoid iput() from flusher threadJan Kara
Doing iput() from flusher thread (writeback_sb_inodes()) can create problems because iput() can do a lot of work - for example truncate the inode if it's the last iput on unlinked file. Some filesystems depend on flusher thread progressing (e.g. because they need to flush delay allocated blocks to reduce allocation uncertainty) and so flusher thread doing truncate creates interesting dependencies and possibilities for deadlocks. We get rid of iput() in flusher thread by using the fact that I_SYNC inode flag effectively pins the inode in memory. So if we take care to either hold i_lock or have I_SYNC set, we can get away without taking inode reference in writeback_sb_inodes(). As a side effect of these changes, we also fix possible use-after-free in wb_writeback() because inode_wait_for_writeback() call could try to reacquire i_lock on the inode that was already free.

2012-05-06writeback: Refactor writeback_single_inode()Jan Kara
The code in writeback_single_inode() is relatively complex. The list requeing logic makes sense only for flusher thread but not really for sync_inode() or write_inode_now() callers. Also when we want to get rid of inode references held by flusher thread, we will need a special I_SYNC handling there. So separate part of writeback_single_inode() which does the real writeback work into __writeback_single_inode() and make writeback_single_inode() do only stuff necessary for callers writing only one inode, moving the special list handling into writeback_sb_inodes(). As a sideeffect this fixes a possible race where we could skip some inode during sync(2) because other writer refiled it from b_io to b_dirty list. Also I_SYNC handling is moved into the callers of __writeback_single_inode() to make locking easier.

Also inode_wait_for_writeback() doesn't need wb->list_lock for anything. It was just taking it to make usage convenient for callers but with writeback_single_inode() changing it's not very convenient anymore. So remove the lock from that function.

Instead of clearing I_DIRTY_PAGES and resetting it when we didn't succeed in writing them all, just clear the bit only when we succeeded writing all the pages. We also move the clearing of the bit close to other i_state handling to separate it from writeback list handling. This is desirable because list handling will differ for flusher thread and other writeback_single_inode() callers in future. No filesystem plays any tricks with I_DIRTY_PAGES (like checking it in ->writepages or ->write_inode implementation) so this movement is safe.

However this makes sense only if the caller is flusher thread. For other callers of writeback_single_inode() it doesn't really make sense and may be even wrong - flusher thread may be doing WB_SYNC_ALL writeback in parallel.
