| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In this patch we are actually moving to the ORE. (Object Raid Engine). objio_state holds a pointer to an ore_io_state. Once we have an ore_io_state at hand we can call the ore for reading/writing. We register on the done path to kick off the nfs io_done mechanism. Again for Ease of reviewing the old code is "#if 0" but is not removed so the diff command works better. The old code will be removed in the next patch. fs/exofs/Kconfig::ORE is modified to also be auto-included if PNFS_OBJLAYOUT is set. Since we now depend on ORE.

* exofs: Support for RAID5 read-4-write interface.Boaz Harrosh2011-10-241-2/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ore need suplied a r4w_get_page/r4w_put_page API from Filesystem so it can get cache pages to read-into when writing parial stripes. Also I commented out and NULLed the .writepage (singular) vector. Because it gives terrible write pattern to raid and is apparently not needed. Even in OOM conditions the system copes (even better) with out it. TODO: How to specify to write_cache_pages() to start or include a certain page? Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
* ore: RAID5 WriteBoaz Harrosh2011-10-244-16/+578
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is finally the RAID5 Write support. The bigger part of this patch is not the XOR engine itself, But the read4write logic, which is a complete mini prepare_for_striping reading engine that can read scattered pages of a stripe into cache so it can be used for XOR calculation. That is, if the write was not stripe aligned. The main algorithm behind the XOR engine is the 2 dimensional array: struct __stripe_pages_2d. A drawing might save 1000 words --- __stripe_pages_2d | n = pages_in_stripe_unit; w = group_width - parity; | pages array presented to the XOR lib | | V | __1_page_stripe[0].pages --> [c0][c1]..[cw][c_par] <---| | | __1_page_stripe[1].pages --> [c0][c1]..[cw][c_par] <--- | ... | ... | __1_page_stripe[n].pages --> [c0][c1]..[cw][c_par] ^ | data added columns first then row --- The pages are put on this array columns first. .i.e: p0-of-c0, p1-of-c0, ... pn-of-c0, p0-of-c1, ... So we are doing a corner turn of the pages. Note that pages will zigzag down and left. but are put sequentially in growing order. So when the time comes to XOR the stripe, only the beginning and end of the array need be checked. We scan the array and any NULL spot will be field by pages-to-be-read. The FS that wants to support RAID5 needs to supply an operations-vector that searches a given page in cache, and specifies if the page is uptodate or need reading. All these pages to be read are put on a slave ore_io_state and synchronously read. All the pages of a stripe are read in one IO, using the scatter gather mechanism. In write we constrain our IO to only be incomplete on a single stripe. Meaning either the complete IO is within a single stripe so we might have pages to read from both beginning or end of the strip. Or we have some reading to do at beginning but end at strip boundary. The left over pages are pushed to the next IO by the API already established by previous work, where an IO offset/length combination presented to the ORE might get the length truncated and the user must re-submit the leftover pages. (Both exofs and NFS support this) But any ORE user should make it's best effort to align it's IO before hand and avoid complications. A cached ore_layout->stripe_size member can be used for that calculation. (NOTE: that ORE demands that stripe_size may not be bigger then 32bit) What else? Well read it and tell me.

* ore: RAID5 readBoaz Harrosh2011-10-244-78/+455
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces the first stage of RAID5 support mainly the skip-over-raid-units when reading. For writes it inserts BLANK units, into where XOR blocks should be calculated and written to. It introduces the new "general raid maths", and the main additional parameters and components needed for raid5. Since at this stage it could corrupt future version that actually do support raid5. The enablement of raid5 mounting and setting of parity-count > 0 is disabled. So the raid5 code will never be used. Mounting of raid5 is only enabled later once the basic XOR write is also in. But if the patch "enable RAID5" is applied this code has been tested to be able to properly read raid5 volumes and is according to standard. Also it has been tested that the new maths still properly supports RAID0 and grouping code just as before. (BTW: I have found more bugs in the pnfs-obj RAID math fixed here) The ore.c file is getting too big, so new ore_raid.[hc] files are added that will include the special raid stuff that are not used in striping and mirrors. In future write support these will get bigger. When adding the ore_raid.c to Kbuild file I was forced to rename ore.ko to libore.ko. Is it possible to keep source file, say ore.c and module file ore.ko the same even if there are multiple files inside ore.ko? Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

* ore/exofs: Change ore_check_io APIBoaz Harrosh2011-10-142-23/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current ore_check_io API receives a residual pointer, to report partial IO. But it is actually not used, because in a multiple devices IO there is never a linearity in the IO failure. On the other hand if every failing device is reported through a received callback measures can be taken to handle only failed devices. One at a time. This will also be needed by the objects-layout-driver for it's error reporting facility. Exofs is not currently using the new information and keeps the old behaviour of failing the complete IO in case of an error. (No partial completion) TODO: Use an ore_check_io callback to set_page_error only the failing pages. And re-dirty write pages. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
* ore/exofs: Define new ore_verify_layoutBoaz Harrosh2011-10-143-53/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All users of the ore will need to check if current code supports the given layout. For example RAID5/6 is not currently supported. So move all the checks from exofs/super.c to a new ore_verify_layout() to be used by ore users. Note that any new layout should be passed through the ore_verify_layout() because the ore engine will prepare and verify some internal members of ore_layout, and assumes it's called.

* ore: Support for partial component tableBoaz Harrosh2011-10-142-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Users like the objlayout-driver would like to only pass a partial device table that covers the IO in question. For example exofs divides the file into raid-group-sized chunks and only serves group_width number of devices at a time. The partiality is communicated by setting ore_componets->first_dev and the array covers all logical devices from oc->first_dev upto (oc->first_dev + oc->numdevs) The ore_comp_dev() API receives a logical device index and returns the actual present device in the table. An out-of-range dev_index will BUG. Logical device index is the theoretical device index as if all the devices of a file are present. .i.e: total_devs = group_width * mirror_p1 * group_count 0 <= dev_index < total_devs Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
* ore: Support for short read/writesBoaz Harrosh2011-10-141-7/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Memory conditions and max_bio constraints might cause us to not comply to the full length of the requested IO. Instead of failing the complete IO we can issue a shorter read/write and report how much was actually executed in the ios->length member. All users must check ios->length at IO_done or upon return of ore_read/write and re-issue the reminder of the bytes. Because other wise there is no error returned like before. This is part of the effort to support the pnfs-obj layout driver. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | Now that each ore_io_state covers only a single raid group. A single striping_info math is needed.

* ore: Only IO one group at a time (API change)Boaz Harrosh2011-10-142-51/+154
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Usually a single IO is confined to one group of devices (group_width) and at the boundary of a raid group it can spill into a second group. Current code would allocate a full device_table size array at each io_state so it can comply to requests that span two groups. Needless to say that is very wasteful, specially when device_table count can get very large (hundreds even thousands), while a group_width is usually 8 or 10. * Change ore API to trim on IO that spans two raid groups. The user passes offset+length to ore_get_rw_state, the ore might trim on that length if spanning a group boundary. The user must check ios->length or ios->nrpages to see how much IO will be preformed. It is the responsibility of the user to re-issue the reminder of the IO. * Modify exofs To copy spilled pages on to the next IO. This means one last kick is needed after all coalescing of pages is done. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
* ore/exofs: Change the type of the devices array (API change)Boaz Harrosh2011-10-043-42/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the pNFS obj-LD the device table at the layout level needs to point to a device_cache node, where it is possible and likely that many layouts will point to the same device-nodes. In Exofs we have a more orderly structure where we have a single array of devices that repeats twice for a round-robin view of the device table This patch moves to a model that can be used by the pNFS obj-LD where struct ore_components holds an array of ore_dev-pointers. (ore_dev is newly defined and contains a struct osd_dev *od member) Each pointer in the array of pointers will point to a bigger user-defined dev_struct. That can be accessed by use of the container_of macro. In Exofs an __alloc_dev_table() function allocates the ore_dev-pointers array as well as an exofs_dev array, in one allocation and does the addresses dance to set everything pointing correctly. It still keeps the double allocation trick for the inodes round-robin view of the table. The device table is always allocated dynamically, also for the single device case. So it is unconditionally freed at umount. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

The case where num_devices is not divisible by mirror_count+1 is perfectly fine since the rotating device view will eventually use all the devices it can get.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ORE stands for "Objects Raid Engine" This patch is a mechanical rename of everything that was in ios.c and its API declaration to an ore.c and an osd_ore.h header. The ore engine will later be used by the pnfs objects layout driver. * File ios.c => ore.c * Declaration of types and API are moved from exofs.h to a new osd_ore.h * All used types are prefixed by ore_ from their exofs_ name. * Shift includes from exofs.h to osd_ore.h so osd_ore.h is independent, include it from exofs.h. Other than a pure rename there are no other changes. Next patch will move the ore into it's own module and will export the API to be used by exofs and later the layout driver Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
| * exofs: ios: Move to a per inode components & device-tableBoaz Harrosh2011-08-064-183/+218
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Exofs raid engine was saving on memory space by having a single layout-info, single pid, and a single device-table, global to the filesystem. Then passing a credential and object_id info at the io_state level, private for each inode. It would also devise this contraption of rotating the device table view for each inode->ino to spread out the device usage. This is not compatible with the pnfs-objects standard, demanding that each inode can have it's own layout-info, device-table, and each object component it's own pid, oid and creds. So: Bring exofs raid engine to be usable for generic pnfs-objects use by: * Define an exofs_comp structure that holds obj_id and credential info. * Break up exofs_layout struct to an exofs_components structure that holds a possible array of exofs_comp and the array of devices + the size of the arrays. * Add a "comps" parameter to get_io_state() that specifies the ids creds and device array to use for each IO. This enables to keep the layout global, but the device-table view, creds and IDs at the inode level. It only adds two 64bit to each inode, since some of these members already existed in another form. * ios raid engine now access layout-info and comps-info through the passed pointers. Everything is pre-prepared by caller for generic access of these structures and arrays. At the exofs Level: * Super block holds an exofs_components struct that holds the device array, previously in layout. The devices there are in device-table order. The device-array is twice bigger and repeats the device-table twice so now each inode's device array can point to a random device and have a round-robin view of the table, making it compatible to previous exofs versions. * Each inode has an exofs_components struct that is initialized at load time, with it's own view of the device table IDs and creds. When doing IO this gets passed to the io_state together with the layout. While preforming this change. Bugs where found where credentials with the wrong IDs where used to access the different SB objects (super.c). As well as some dead code. It was never noticed because the target we use does not check the credentials. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

| * exofs: Add offset/length to exofs_get_io_stateBoaz Harrosh2011-08-063-16/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In future raid code we will need to know the IO offset/length and if it's a read or write to determine some of the array sizes we'll need. So add a new exofs_get_rw_state() API for use when writeing/reading. All other simple cases are left using the old way. The major change to this is that now we need to call exofs_get_io_state later at inode.c::read_exec and inode.c::write_exec when we actually know these things. So this patch is kept separate so I can test things apart from other changes. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

(I know that was really stupid). Then much later when "register bdi" was added (By Jens) it was registering the pointer to sbi->bdi before the realloc. We never saw this problem because up till now the realloc did not do anything since the device table was small enough to fit in the original allocation. But once we starting testing with large device tables (Bigger then 28) we noticed the crash of writeback operating on a deallocated pointer. * Avoid the all mess by allocating the device-table as a second array and get rid of the variable-sized structure and the rest of this mess. * Take the chance to clean near by structures and comments. * Add a needed dprint on startup to indicate the loaded layout. * Also move the bdi registration to the very end because it will only fail in a low memory, which will probably fail before hand. There are many more likely causes to not load before that. This way the error handling is made simpler.

* | fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlersJosef Bacik2011-07-201-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

* | exofs: deprecate the commands pending counterBoaz Harrosh2011-03-151-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One leftover from the days of IBM's original code, is an SB counter that counts in-flight asynchronous commands. And a piece of code that waits for the counter to reach zero at unmount. I guess it might have been needed then, cause of some reference missing or something. I'm not removing it yet but am putting a warning message if ever this counter triggers at unmount. If I'll never see it triggers or reported I'll remove the counter for good. (I had this print as a debug output for a long time and never had it trigger) Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
* | exofs: Write sbi->s_nextid as part of the Create commandBoaz Harrosh2011-03-155-31/+141
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before when creating a new inode, we'd set the sb->s_dirt flag, and sometime later the system would write out s_nextid as part of the sb_info. Also on inode sync we would force the sb sync as well. Define the s_nextid as a new partition attribute and set it every time we create a new object. At mount we read it from it's new place. We now never set sb->s_dirt anywhere in exofs. write_super is actually never called. The call to exofs_write_super from exofs_put_super is also removed because the VFS always calls ->sync_fs before calling ->put_super twice. To stay backward-and-forward compatible we also write the old s_nextid in the super_block object at unmount, and support zero length attribute on mount. This also fixes a BUG where in layouts when group_width was not a divisor of EXOFS_SUPER_ID (0x10000) the s_nextid was not read from the device it was written to. Because of the sliding window layout trick, and because the read was always done from the 0 device but the write was done via the raid engine that might slide the device view. Now we read and write through the raid engine. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
* | exofs: Add option to mount by osdnameBoaz Harrosh2011-03-151-4/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If /dev/osd* devices are shuffled because more devices where added, and/or login order has changed. It is hard to mount the FS you want. Add an option to mount by osdname. osdname is any osd-device's osdname as specified to the mkfs.exofs command when formatting the osd-devices. The new mount format is: OPT="osdname=$UUID0,pid=$PID,_netdev" mount -t exofs -o $OPT $DEV_OSD0 $MOUNTDIR if "osdname=" is specified in options above $DEV_OSD0 is ignored and can be empty. Also while at it: Removed some old unused Opt_* enums. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

* | exofs: simple fsync race fixNick Piggin2011-03-152-6/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is incorrect to test inode dirty bits without participating in the inode writeback protocol. Inode writeback sets I_SYNC and clears I_DIRTY_?, then writes out the particular bits, then clears I_SYNC when it is done. BTW. it may not completely write all pages out, so I_DIRTY_PAGES would get set again. This is a standard pattern used throughout the kernel's writeback caches (I_SYNC ~= I_WRITEBACK, if that makes it clearer). And so it is not possible to determine an inode's dirty status just by checking I_DIRTY bits. Especially not for the purpose of data integrity syncs. Missing the check for these bits means that fsync can complete while writeback to the inode is underway. Inode writeback functions get this right, so call into them rather than try to shortcut things by testing dirty state improperly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 115e19c53501edc11f730191f7f047736815ae3d. Apparently setting inode->bdi to one's own sb->s_bdi stops VFS from sending *read-aheads*. This problem was bisected to this commit. A revert fixes it. I'll investigate farther why is this happening for the next Kernel, but for now a revert. I'm sending to stable@kernel.org as well, since it exists also in 2.6.37. 2.6.36 is good and does not have this patch.
