Needed to update to apply fixes for which the old branch was too
outdated.
The log grant ticket wait queues are currently protected by the log
grant lock. However, the queues are functionally independent from
each other, and operations on them only require serialisation
against other queue operations now that all of the other log
variables they use are atomic values.
Hence, we can make them independent of the grant lock by introducing
new locks just to protect the lists operations. because the lists
are independent, we can use a lock per list and ensure that reserve
and write head queuing do not contend.
To ensure forced shutdowns work correctly in conjunction with the
new fast paths, ensure that we check whether the log has been shut
down in the grant functions once we hold the relevant spin locks but
before we go to sleep. This is needed to co-ordinate correctly with
the wakeups that are issued on the ticket queues so we don't leave
any processes sleeping on the queues during a shutdown.

log->l_tail_lsn is currently protected by the log grant lock. The
lock is only needed for serialising readers against writers, so we
don't really need the lock if we make the l_tail_lsn variable an
atomic. Converting the l_tail_lsn variable to an atomic64_t means we
can start to peel back the grant lock from various operations.
Also, provide functions to safely crack an atomic LSN variable into
it's component pieces and to recombined the components into an
atomic variable. Use them where appropriate.
This also removes the need for explicitly holding a spinlock to read
the l_tail_lsn on 32 bit platforms.

The log grant queues are one of the few places left using sv_t
constructs for waiting. Given we are touching this code, we should
convert them to plain wait queues. While there, convert all the

Seeing as this removes the last users of the sv_t type, remove the

The xfaild often tries to rest to wait for congestion to pass of for
IO to complete, but is regularly woken in tail-pushing situations.
In severe cases, the xfsaild is getting woken tens of thousands of
times a second. Reduce the number needless wakeups by only waking
the xfsaild if the new target is larger than the old one. Further
make short sleeps uninterruptible as they occur when the xfsaild has

Now that the buffer reclaim infrastructure can handle different reclaim

Introduce a per-buftarg LRU for memory reclaim to operate on. This
is the last piece we need to put in place so that we can fully
control the buffer lifecycle. This allows XFS to be responsibile for
maintaining the working set of buffers under memory pressure instead
of relying on the VM reclaim not to take pages we need out from
underneath us.
The implementation introduces a b_lru_ref counter into the buffer.
This is currently set to 1 whenever the buffer is referenced and so is used to
determine if the buffer should be added to the LRU or not when freed.
Effectively it allows lazy LRU initialisation of the buffer so we do not need
to touch the LRU list and locks in xfs_buf_find().
Instead, when the buffer is being released and we drop the last
reference to it, we check the b_lru_ref count and if it is none zero
we re-add the buffer reference and add the inode to the LRU. The
b_lru_ref counter is decremented by the shrinker, and whenever the
shrinker comes across a buffer with a zero b_lru_ref counter, if
released the LRU reference on the buffer. In the absence of a lookup
race, this will result in the buffer being freed.
This counting mechanism is used instead of a reference flag so that
it is simple to re-introduce buffer-type specific reclaim reference
counts to prioritise reclaim more effectively. We still have all
those hooks in the XFS code, so this will provide the infrastructure
to re-implement that functionality.

As reported by Nick Piggin, XFS is suffering from long pauses under
highly concurrent workloads when hosted on ramdisks. The problem is
that an inode buffer is stuck in the pinned state in memory and as a
result either the inode buffer or one of the inodes within the
buffer is stopping the tail of the log from being moved forward.
The system remains in this state until a periodic log force issued
by xfssyncd causes the buffer to be unpinned. The main problem is
that these are stale buffers, and are hence held locked until the
transaction/checkpoint that marked them state has been committed to
disk. When the filesystem gets into this state, only the xfssyncd
can cause the async transactions to be committed to disk and hence
unpin the inode buffer.
This problem was encountered when scaling the busy extent list, but
only the blocking lock interface was fixed to solve the problem.
Extend the same fix to the buffer trylock operations - if we fail to
lock a pinned, stale buffer, then force the log immediately so that
when the next attempt to lock it comes around, it will have been
unpinned.

Since the move to the new truncate sequence we call xfs_setattr to
truncate down excessively instanciated blocks. As shown by the testcase
in kernel.org BZ #22452 that doesn't work too well. Due to the confusion
of the internal inode size, and the VFS inode i_size it zeroes data that
it shouldn't.
But full blown truncate seems like overkill here. We only instanciate
delayed allocations in the write path, and given that we never released
the iolock we can't have converted them to real allocations yet either.
The only nasty case is pre-existing preallocation which we need to skip.
We already do this for page discard during writeback, so make the delayed
allocation block punching a generic function and call it from the failed
write path as well as xfs_aops_discard_page. The callers are
responsible for ensuring that partial blocks are not truncated away,
and that they hold the ilock.
Based on a fix originally from Christoph Hellwig. This version used
filesystem blocks as the range unit.

With delayed logging greatly increasing the sustained parallelism of inode
operations, the inode cache locking is showing significant read vs write
contention when inode reclaim runs at the same time as lookups. There is
also a lot more write lock acquistions than there are read locks (4:1 ratio)
so the read locking is not really buying us much in the way of parallelism.
To avoid the read vs write contention, change the cache to use RCU locking on
the read side. To avoid needing to RCU free every single inode, use the built
in slab RCU freeing mechanism. This requires us to be able to detect lookups of
freed inodes, so enѕure that ever freed inode has an inode number of zero and
the XFS_IRECLAIM flag set. We already check the XFS_IRECLAIM flag in cache hit
lookup path, but also add a check for a zero inode number as well.
We canthen convert all the read locking lockups to use RCU read side locking
and hence remove all read side locking.

The XFS iolock needs to be re-initialised to a new lock class before
it enters reclaim to prevent lockdep false positives. Unfortunately,
this is not sufficient protection as inodes in the XFS_IRECLAIMABLE
state can be recycled and not re-initialised before being reused.
We need to re-initialise the lock state when transfering out of
XFS_IRECLAIMABLE state to XFS_INEW, but we need to keep the same
class as if the inode was just allocated. Hence we need a specific
lockdep class variable for the iolock so that both initialisations
use the same class.
While there, add a specific class for inodes in the reclaim state so
that it is easy to tell from lockdep reports what state the inode
was in that generated the report.

After recent blkdev_get() modifications, open_by_devnum() and

blkdev_get_by_dev() is identical to open_by_devnum().
blkdev_get_by_path() is slightly different in that it doesn't
automatically add %FMODE_EXCL to @mode.
All users are converted. Most conversions are mechanical and don't
introduce any behavior difference. There are several exceptions.
* btrfs now sets FMODE_EXCL in btrfs_device->mode, so there's no
reason to OR it explicitly on blkdev_put().
* gfs2, nilfs2 and the generic mount_bdev() now set FMODE_EXCL in
sb->s_mode.
* With the above changes, sb->s_mode now always should contain
FMODE_EXCL. WARN_ON_ONCE() added to kill_block_super() to detect

Over time, block layer has accumulated a set of APIs dealing with bdev
open, close, claim and release.
* blkdev_get/put() are the primary open and close functions.
* bd_claim/release() deal with exclusive open.
* open/close_bdev_exclusive() are combination of open and claim and
the other way around, respectively.
* bd_link/unlink_disk_holder() to create and remove holder/slave
symlinks.
* open_by_devnum() wraps bdget() + blkdev_get().
The interface is a bit confusing and the decoupling of open and claim
makes it impossible to properly guarantee exclusive access as
in-kernel open + claim sequence can disturb the existing exclusive
open even before the block layer knows the current open if for another
exclusive access. Reorganize the interface such that,
* blkdev_get() is extended to include exclusive access management.
@holder argument is added and, if is @FMODE_EXCL specified, it will
gain exclusive access atomically w.r.t. other exclusive accesses.
* blkdev_put() is similarly extended. It now takes @mode argument and
if @FMODE_EXCL is set, it releases an exclusive access. Also, when
the last exclusive claim is released, the holder/slave symlinks are
removed automatically.
* bd_claim/release() and close_bdev_exclusive() are no longer
necessary and either made static or removed.
* bd_link_disk_holder() remains the same but bd_unlink_disk_holder()
is no longer necessary and removed.
* open_bdev_exclusive() becomes a simple wrapper around lookup_bdev()
and blkdev_get(). It also has an unexpected extra bdev_read_only()
test which probably should be moved into blkdev_get().
* open_by_devnum() is modified to take @holder argument and pass it to
blkdev_get().
Most of bdev open/close operations are unified into blkdev_get/put()
and most exclusive accesses are tested atomically at the open time (as
it should). This cleans up code and removes some, both valid and
invalid, but unnecessary all the same, corner cases.
open_bdev_exclusive() and open_by_devnum() can use further cleanup -
rename to blkdev_get_by_path() and blkdev_get_by_devt() and drop
special features. Well, let's leave them for another day.
Most conversions are straight-forward. drbd conversion is a bit more
involved as there was some reordering, but the logic should stay the
same.

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.

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.

Under heavy multi-way parallel create workloads, the VFS struggles
to write back all the inodes that have been changed in age order.
The bdi flusher thread becomes CPU bound, spending 85% of it's time
in the VFS code, mostly traversing the superblock dirty inode list
to separate dirty inodes old enough to flush.
We already keep an index of all metadata changes in age order - in
the AIL - and continued log pressure will do age ordered writeback
without any extra overhead at all. If there is no pressure on the
log, the xfssyncd will periodically write back metadata in ascending
disk address offset order so will be very efficient.
Hence we can stop marking VFS inodes dirty during transaction commit
or when changing timestamps during transactions. This will keep the
inodes in the superblock dirty list to those containing data or
unlogged metadata changes.
However, the timstamp changes are slightly more complex than this -
there are a couple of places that do unlogged updates of the
timestamps, and the VFS need to be informed of these. Hence add a
new function xfs_trans_ichgtime() for transactional changes,
and leave xfs_ichgtime() for the non-transactional changes.

The perag lookup is trivial to convert to lock-less RCU lookups

When marking an inode reclaimable, a per-AG counter is increased, the
inode is tagged reclaimable in its per-AG tree, and, when this is the
first reclaimable inode in the AG, the AG entry in the per-mount tree
is also tagged.
When an inode is finally reclaimed, however, it is only deleted from
the per-AG tree. Neither the counter is decreased, nor is the parent
tree's AG entry untagged properly.
Since the tags in the per-mount tree are not cleared, the inode
shrinker iterates over all AGs that have had reclaimable inodes at one
point in time.
The counters on the other hand signal an increasing amount of slab
objects to reclaim. Since "70e60ce xfs: convert inode shrinker to
per-filesystem context" this is not a real issue anymore because the
shrinker bails out after one iteration.
But the problem was observable on a machine running v2.6.34, where the
reclaimable work increased and each process going into direct reclaim
eventually got stuck on the xfs inode shrinking path, trying to scan
several million objects.
Fix this by properly unwinding the reclaimable-state tracking of an
inode when it is reclaimed.

stall, memory allocation would stall because pages could not be
cleaned, and lock contention on the AIL during inode IO completion
processing was being seen to slow everything down even further.
By making the log Io completion workqueue a high priority workqueue,
they are queued ahead of all data/metadata IO completions and
processed before the data/metadata completions. Hence the log never
gets stalled, and operations needed to clean memory can continue as
quickly as possible. This avoids the livelock conditions and allos

calculate holes and set it in 'out', while out is malloced by
bmv_count(fi_extent_max+1) which didn't consider holes. So in the
worst case, if 'out' vector looks like
[hole, extent, hole, extent, hole, ... hole, extent, hole],
we will only return half of fi_extent_max extents.
This patch add a new parameter BMV_IF_NO_HOLES for bvm_iflags.
So with this flags, we don't use our 'out' in xfs_getbmap for

shows this:
1134740.00 19.3% _xfs_buf_find
733142.00 12.5% __ticket_spin_lock
The problem is that the hash contains 45,000 buffers, and the hash table width
is only 256 buffers. That means we've got around 200 buffers per chain, and
searching it is quite expensive. The hash table size needs to increase.
Secondly, every time we do a lookup, we promote the buffer we find to the head
of the hash chain. This is causing cachelines to be dirtied and causes
invalidation of cachelines across all CPUs that may have walked the hash chain
recently. hence every walk of the hash chain is effectively a cold cache walk.
Remove the promotion to avoid this invalidation.
The results are:
1045043.00 21.2% __ticket_spin_lock
326184.00 6.6% _xfs_buf_find

As a result, the VFS writeback of the dirty inode will prevent the
filesystem from idling long enough for the log covering state
machine to complete. The state machine gets stuck in a loop issuing
new dummy transactions to cover the log and never makes progress.
To avoid this problem, the dummy transactions should not cause
externally visible state changes. To ensure this occurs, make sure
that dummy transactions log an unchanging field in the superblock as
it's state is never propagated outside the filesystem. This allows

If we write into an unwritten extent using AIO we need to complete the AIO
request after the extent conversion has finished. Without that a read could
race to see see the extent still unwritten and return zeros. For synchronous
I/O we already take care of that by flushing the xfsconvertd workqueue (which
might be a bit of overkill).
To do that add iocb and result fields to struct xfs_ioend, so that we can
call aio_complete from xfs_end_io after the extent conversion has happened.
Note that we need a new result field as io_error is used for positive errno
values, while the AIO code can return negative error values and positive
transfer sizes.

Filesystems with unwritten extent support must not complete an AIO request
until the transaction to convert the extent has been commited. That means
the aio_complete calls needs to be moved into the ->end_io callback so
that the filesystem can control when to call it exactly.
This makes a bit of a mess out of dio_complete and the ->end_io callback
prototype even more complicated.

The b_strat callback is used by xfs_buf_iostrategy to perform additional
checks before submitting a buffer. It is used in xfs_bwrite and when
writing out delayed buffers. In xfs_bwrite it we can de-virtualize the
call easily as b_strat is set a few lines above the call to
xfs_buf_iostrategy. For the delayed buffers the rationale is a bit
more complicated:
- there are three callers of xfs_buf_delwri_queue, which places buffers
on the delwri list:
(1) xfs_bdwrite - this sets up b_strat, so it's fine
(2) xfs_buf_iorequest. None of the callers can have XBF_DELWRI set:
- xlog_bdstrat is only used for log buffers, which are never delwri
- _xfs_buf_read explicitly clears the delwri flag
- xfs_buf_iodone_work retries log buffers only
- xfsbdstrat - only used for reads, superblock writes without the
delwri flag, log I/O and file zeroing with explicitly allocated
buffers.
- xfs_buf_iostrategy - only calls xfs_buf_iorequest if b_strat is
not set
(3) xfs_buf_unlock
- only puts the buffer on the delwri list if the DELWRI flag is
already set. The DELWRI flag is only ever set in xfs_bwrite,
xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks, or xfs_trans_log_buf. For
xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks and xfs_trans_log_buf we require
an initialized buf item, which means b_strat was set to
xfs_bdstrat_cb in xfs_buf_item_init.
Conclusion: we can just get rid of the callback and replace it with
explicit calls to xfs_bdstrat_cb.

Since Linux 2.6.33 the kernel has support for real O_SYNC, which made
the osyncisosync option a no-op. Warn the users about this and remove

When CONFIG_XFS_POSIX_ACL is not set "xfs_check_acl" is #defined
to NULL - which breaks the code attempting to add a tracepoint

Only define the tracepoint when the function exists.

xfs_ireclaim has to get and put te pag structure because it is only
called with the inode to reclaim. The one caller of this function
already has a reference on the pag and a pointer to is, so move the
radix tree delete to the caller and remove xfs_ireclaim completely.
This avoids a xfs_perag_get/put on every inode being reclaimed.
The overhead was noticed in a bug report at:

xfs_buf_read() fails to detect dispatch errors before attempting to
wait on sychronous IO. If there was an error, it will get stuck
forever, waiting for an I/O that was never started. Make sure the
error is detected correctly.
Further, such a failure can leave locked pages in the page cache
which will cause a later operation to hang on the page. Ensure that
we correctly process pages in the buffers when we get a dispatch
error.
