2008-03-31[GFS2] Misc fixupsBob Peterson
This patch contains two small fixups that didn't fit elsewhere. They are: (1) get rid of temp variable in find_metapath. (2) Remove vestigial "ret" variable from gfs2_writepage_common. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-02-05Pagecache zeroing: zero_user_segment, zero_user_segments and zero_userChristoph Lameter
Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2) Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and makes code clearer. zero_user_segment(page, start, end) Same for a single segment. zero_user(page, start, length) Length variant for the case where we know the length. We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues: 1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable. 2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM. Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code. Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other functions defined in highmem.h. Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these functions are called. Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of lineSteven Whitehouse
It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note that OCFS2 use the same approach. In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add too much overhead.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Fix problems relating to execution of files on GFS2Steven Whitehouse
This patch fixes a couple of problems which affected the execution of files on GFS2. The first is that there was a corner case where inodes were not always uptodate at the point at which permissions checks were being carried out, this was resulting in refusal of execute permission, but only on the first lookup, subsequent requests worked correctly. The second was a problem relating to incorrect updating of file sizes which was introduced with the write_begin/end code for GFS2 a little while back.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Allow page migration for writeback and ordered pagesSteven Whitehouse
To improve performance on NUMA, we use the VM's standard page migration for writeback and ordered pages.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Remove function gfs2_get_blockBob Peterson
This patch is just a cleanup. Function gfs2_get_block() just calls function gfs2_block_map reversing the last two parameters. By reversing the parameters, gfs2_block_map() may be called directly and function gfs2_get_block may be eliminated altogether. Since this function is done for every block operation, this streamlines the code and makes it a little bit more efficient.

This is an addendum to the new AOPs work which moves the point at which we take the page lock so that we don't get it until the last possible moment. This resolves a conflict between starting transactions and the page lock. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Add writepages for GFS2 jdataSteven Whitehouse
This patch resolves a lock ordering issue where we had been getting a transaction lock in the wrong order with respect to the page lock. By using writepages rather than just writepage, it is then possible to start a transaction before locking the page, and thus matching the locking order elsewhere in the code.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Split gfs2_writepage into three casesSteven Whitehouse
This patch splits gfs2_writepage into separate functions for each of the three cases: writeback, ordered and journalled. As a result it becomes a lot easier to see what each one is doing. The common code is moved into gfs2_writepage_common. This fixes a performance bug where we were doing more work than strictly required in the ordered write case.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Introduce gfs2_set_aops()Steven Whitehouse
Just like ext3 we now have three sets of address space operations to cover the cases of writeback, ordered and journalled data writes. This means that the individual operations can now become less complicated as we are able to remove some of the tests for file data mode from the code.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Add gfs2_is_writeback()Steven Whitehouse
This adds a function "gfs2_is_writeback()" along the lines of the existing "gfs2_is_jdata()" in order to clean up the code and make the various tests for the inode mode more obvious. It also fixes the PageChecked() logic where we were resetting the flag too early in the case of an error path. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Remove useless i_cache from inodesSteven Whitehouse
The i_cache was designed to keep references to the indirect blocks used during block mapping so that they didn't have to be looked up continually. The idea failed because there are too many places where the i_cache needs to be freed, and this has in the past been the cause of many bugs. In addition there was no performance benefit being gained since the disk blocks in question were cached anyway. So this patch removes it in order to simplify the code to prepare for other changes which would otherwise have had to add further support for this feature.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Use ->page_mkwrite() for mmap()Steven Whitehouse
This cleans up the mmap() code path for GFS2 by implementing the page_mkwrite function for GFS2. We are thus able to use the generic filemap_fault function for our ->fault() implementation. This now means that shared writable mappings will be much more efficiently shared across the cluster if there is a reasonable proportion of read activity (the greater proportion, the better). As a side effect, it also reduces the size of the code, removes special cases from readpage and readpages, and makes the code path easier to follow.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Clean up internal read functionSteven Whitehouse
As requested by Christoph, this patch cleans up GFS2's internal read function so that it no longer uses the do_generic_mapping_read function. This function is obsolete and GFS2 is the last user of it. As a side effect the internal read code gets smaller and easier to read and gfs2_readpage is split into two. One function has the locking and the other function has the rest of the logic. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>

The problem would show while multiple nodes do simultaneous writes to the same file. Upon glock exclusive lock transfer, if the file is a sparse file with large file size where the indirect meta blocks span multiple array entries with "zero" entries in between.

This patch cleans up the code for writing journaled data into the log. It also removes the need to allocate a small "tag" structure for each block written into the log. Instead we just keep count of the outstanding I/O so that we can be sure that its all been written at the correct time. Another result of this patch is that a number of ll_rw_block() calls have become submit_bh() calls, closing some races at the same time. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2007-10-10[GFS2] Clean up ordered write codeSteven Whitehouse
The following patch removes the ordered write processing from databuf_lo_before_commit() and moves it to log.c. This has the effect of greatly simplyfying databuf_lo_before_commit() and well as potentially making the ordered write code more efficient. As a side effect of this, its now possible to remove ordered buffers from the ordered buffer list at any time, so we now make use of this in invalidatepage and releasepage to ensure timely release of these buffers.

2007-07-19mm: merge populate and nopage into fault (fixes nonlinear)Nick Piggin
Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings. ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping. The hitch here is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation). Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing to be doing. This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and ->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if everyone switches over. The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two. After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway. NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed. This should be implemented with ->fault, and no users have hit mainline yet.

2007-07-09[GFS2] Journaled file write/unstuff bugRobert Peterson
This patch is for bugzilla bug 283162, which uncovered a number of bugs pertaining to writing to files that have the journaled bit on. These bugs happen most often when writing to the meta_fs because the files are always journaled. So operations like gfs2_grow were particularly vulnerable, although many of the problems could be recreated with normal files after setting the journaled bit on. The problems fixed are: -GFS2 wasn't ever writing unstuffed journaled data blocks to their in-place location on disk. Now it does. -If you unmounted too quickly after doing IO to a journaled file, GFS2 was crashing because you would discard a buffer whose bufdata was still on the active items list. GFS2 now deals with this gracefully. -GFS2 was losing track of the bufdata for journaled data blocks, and it wasn't getting freed, causing an error when you tried to unmount the module. GFS2 now frees all the bufdata structures. -There was a memory corruption occurring because GFS2 wrote twice as many log entries for journaled buffers. -It was occasionally trying to write journal headers in buffers that weren't currently mapped.

2007-07-09[GFS2] fix jdata issuesBenjamin Marzinski
This is a patch for the first three issues of RHBZ #238162 The first issue is that when you allocate a new page for a file, it will not start off uptodate. This makes sense, since you haven't written anything to that part of the file yet. Unfortunately, gfs2_pin() checks to make sure that the buffers are uptodate. The solution to this is to mark the buffers uptodate in gfs2_commit_write(), after they have been zeroed out and have the data written into them. I'm pretty confident with this fix, although it's not completely obvious that there is no problem with marking the buffers uptodate here. The second issue is simply that you can try to pin a data buffer that is already on the incore log, and thus, already pinned. This patch checks to see if this buffer is already on the log, and exits databuf_lo_add() if it is, just like buf_lo_add() does. The third issue is that gfs2_log_flush() doesn't do it's block accounting correctly. Both metadata and journaled data are logged, but gfs2_log_flush() only compares the number of metadata blocks with the number of blocks to commit to the ondisk journal. This patch also counts the journaled data blocks. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2007-07-09[GFS2] Clean up inode number handlingSteven Whitehouse
This patch cleans up the inode number handling code. The main difference is that instead of looking up the inodes using a struct gfs2_inum_host we now use just the no_addr member of this structure. The tests relating to no_formal_ino can then be done by the calling code. This has advantages in that we want to do different things in different code paths if the no_formal_ino doesn't match. In the NFS patch we want to return -ESTALE, but in the ->lookup() path, its a bug in the fs if the no_formal_ino doesn't match and thus we can withdraw in this case. In order to later fix bz #201012, we need to be able to look up an inode without knowing no_formal_ino, as the only information that is known to us is the on-disk location of the inode in question. This patch will also help us to fix bz #236099 at a later date by cleaning up a lot of the code in that area. There are no user visible changes as a result of this patch and there are no changes to the on-disk format either. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2007-07-09[GFS2] Addendum patch 2 for gfs2_growRobert Peterson
This addendum patch 2 corrects three things: 1. It fixes a stupid mistake in the previous addendum that broke gfs2. Ref: https://www.redhat.com/archives/cluster-devel/2007-May/msg00162.html 2. It fixes a problem that Dave Teigland pointed out regarding the external declarations in ops_address.h being in the wrong place. 3. It recasts a couple more %llu printks to (unsigned long long) as requested by Steve Whitehouse.

To avoid code redundancy, I separated out the operational "guts" into a new function called read_rindex_entry. Then I made two functions: the closer-to-original gfs2_ri_update (without the special condition checks) and gfs2_ri_update_special that's designed with that condition in mind. (I don't like the name, but if you have a suggestion, I'm all ears).

2007-07-09[GFS2] kernel changes to support new gfs2_grow commandRobert Peterson
This is another revision of my gfs2 kernel patch that allows gfs2_grow to function properly. Steve Whitehouse expressed some concerns about the previous patch and I restructured it based on his comments. The previous patch was doing the statfs_change at file close time, under its own transaction. The current patch does the statfs_change inside the gfs2_commit_write function, which keeps it under the umbrella of the inode transaction. I can't call ri_update to re-read the rindex file during the transaction because the transaction may have outstanding unwritten buffers attached to the rgrps that would be otherwise blown away. So instead, I created a new function, gfs2_ri_total, that will re-read the rindex file just to total the file system space for the sake of the statfs_change. The ri_update will happen later, when gfs2 realizes the version number has changed, as it happened before my patch. Since the statfs_change is happening at write_commit time and there may be multiple writes to the rindex file for one grow operation. So one consequence of this restructuring is that instead of getting one kernel message to indicate the change, you may see several. For example, before when you did a gfs2_grow, you'd get a single message like: GFS2: File system extended by 247876 blocks (968MB) Now you get something like: GFS2: File system extended by 207896 blocks (812MB) GFS2: File system extended by 39980 blocks (156MB) This version has also been successfully run against the hours-long "gfs2_fsck_hellfire" test that does several gfs2_grow and gfs2_fsck while interjecting file system damage.

2007-05-01[GFS2] Fix bz 231380, unlock page before dequeing glocks in gfs2_commit_writeJosef Whiter
If we are writing a file, and in the middle of writing the file another node attempts to get a shared lock on that file (by doing a du for example) the process doing the writing will hang waiting on lock_page. The reason for this is because when we have waiters on a exclusive glock, we will go through and flush out all dirty pages associated with that inode and release the lock. The problem is that when we flush the dirty pages, we could hit a page that we have locked durring the generic_file_buffered_write part of this operation. This patch unlocks the page before we go to dequeue the lock and locks it immediatly afterwards, since generic_file_buffered_write needs the page locked when the commit_write is completed. This patch resolves the problem, however if somebody sees a better way to do this please don't hesistate to yell.

2007-03-07[GFS2] fix hangup when multiple processes are trying to write to the same fileJosef Whiter
This fixes a problem I encountered while running bonnie++. When you have one thread that opens a file and starts to write to it, and then another thread that tries to open and write to the same file, the second thread will loop forever trying to grab the inode lock for that inode. Basically we come in through generic_buffered_file_write, which calls gfs2_prepare_write, which then attempts to grab the glock. Because we don't own the lock, gfs2_prepare_write gets GLR_TRYFAILED, which returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE to generic_buffered_file_write. At this point generic_buffered_file_write loops around again and immediately retries the prepare_write. This means that the second process never gets off of the processor in order to allow the process that holds the lock to finish its work and let go of the lock. This patch makes gfs2_glock_nq schedule() if it gets back a GLR_TRYFAILED, which resolves this problem.

2007-02-05[GFS2] Add writepages for "data=writeback" mountsSteven Whitehouse
It occurred to me that although a gfs2 specific writepages for ordered writes and journaled data would be tricky, by hooking writepages only for "data=writeback" mounts we could take advantage of not needing buffer heads (we don't use them on the read side, nor have we for some time) and create much larger I/Os for the block layer. Using blktrace both before and after, its possible to see that for large I/Os, most of the requests generated through writepages are now 1024 sectors after this patch is applied as opposed to 8 sectors before.

2007-02-05[GFS2] Fail over to readpage for stuffed filesSteven Whitehouse
This is partially derrived from a patch written by Russell Cattelan. It fixes a bug where there is a race between readpages and truncate by ignoring readpages for stuffed files. This is ok because a stuffed file will never be more than one block (minus sizeof(struct gfs2_dinode)) in size and block size is always less than page size, so we do not lose anything efficiency-wise by not doing readahead for stuffed files. They will have already been "read ahead" by the action of reading the inode in, in the first place. This is the remaining part of the fix for Red Hat bugzilla #218966 which had not yet made it upstream.

2007-02-05[GFS2] Fix DIO deadlockSteven Whitehouse
This patch fixes Red Hat bugzilla #212627 in which a deadlock occurs due to trying to take the i_mutex while holding a glock. The correct locking order is defined as i_mutex -> glock in all cases. I've left dealing with allocating writes. I know that we need to do that, but for now this should do the trick. We don't need to take the i_mutex on write, because the VFS has already taken it for us. On read we don't need it since the glock is enough protection. The reason that I've made some of the checks into a separate function is that we'll need to do the checks again in the allocating write case eventually, so this is partly in preparation for this. Likewise the return value test of != 1 might look a bit odd and thats because we'll need a third return value in case of requiring an allocation. I've made the change to deferred mode on the glock to ensure flushing read caches on other nodes. I notice that (using blktrace to look at whats going on) we appear to do a better job of large I/Os than ext3 after this patch (in terms of not splitting up the I/Os).

2006-10-20[GFS2] Fix bmap to map extents properlySteven Whitehouse
This fix means that bmap will map extents of the length requested by the VFS rather than guessing at it, or just mapping one block at a time. The other callers of gfs2_block_map are audited to ensure they send the correct max extent lengths (i.e. set bh->b_size correctly). Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-10-12[GFS2] Pass the correct value to kunmap_atomicRussell Cattelan

2006-10-12[GFS2] Fix uninitialised variableSteven Whitehouse
This fixes a bug where, in certain cases an uninitialised variable could cause a dereference of a NULL pointer in gfs2_commit_write(). Also a typo in a comment is fixed at the same time. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-10-12[GFS2] Fix a size calculation errorRussell Cattelan
Fix a size calculation error. The size was incorrect being computed as a negative length and then being passed to an unsigned parameter. This in turn would cause the allocator to think it needed enough meta data to store a gigabyte file for every file created.
