* ext4: fix up remaining files with SPDX cleanupsTheodore Ts'o2017-12-171-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A number of ext4 source files were skipped due because their copyright permission statements didn't match the expected text used by the automated conversion utilities. I've added SPDX tags for the rest. While looking at some of these files, I've noticed that we have quite a bit of variation on the licenses that were used --- in particular some of the Red Hat licenses on the jbd2 files use a GPL2+ license, and we have some files that have a LGPL-2.1 license (which was quite surprising). I've not attempted to do any license changes. Even if it is perfectly legal to relicense to GPL 2.0-only for consistency's sake, that should be done with ext4 developer community discussion.

* jbd2: fix checkpoint list cleanupJan Kara2015-10-171-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike comments and expectation of callers journal_clean_one_cp_list() returned 1 not only if it freed the transaction but also if it freed some buffers in the transaction. That could make __jbd2_journal_clean_checkpoint_list() skip processing t_checkpoint_io_list and continue with processing the next transaction. This is mostly a cosmetic issue since the only result is we can sometimes free less memory than we could. But it's still worth fixing. Fix journal_clean_one_cp_list() to return 1 only if the transaction was really freed.

* jbd2: avoid infinite loop when destroying aborted journalJan Kara2015-07-281-6/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 6f6a6fda2945 "jbd2: fix ocfs2 corrupt when updating journal superblock fails" changed jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() to return EIO when the journal is aborted. That makes logic in jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() bail out which is fine, except that jbd2_journal_destroy() expects jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() to always make a progress in cleaning the journal. Without it jbd2_journal_destroy() just loops in an infinite loop. Fix jbd2_journal_destroy() to cleanup journal checkpoint lists of jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() fails with error.

* jbd2: fix ocfs2 corrupt when updating journal superblock failsJoseph Qi2015-06-151-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If updating journal superblock fails after journal data has been flushed, the error is omitted and this will mislead the caller as a normal case. In ocfs2, the checkpoint will be treated successfully and the other node can get the lock to update. Since the sb_start is still pointing to the old log block, it will rewrite the journal data during journal recovery by the other node. Thus the new updates will be overwritten and ocfs2 corrupts. So in above case we have to return the error, and ocfs2_commit_cache will take care of the error and prevent the other node to do update first. And only after recovering journal it can do the new updates.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Yuanhan has reported that when he is running fsync(2) heavy workload creating new files over ramdisk, significant amount of time is spent in __jbd2_journal_clean_checkpoint_list() trying to clean old transactions (but they cannot be cleaned up because flusher hasn't yet checkpointed those buffers). The workload can be generated by: fs_mark -d /fs/ram0/1 -D 2 -N 2560 -n 1000000 -L 1 -S 1 -s 4096 Reduce the amount of scanning by stopping to scan the transaction list once we find a transaction that cannot be checkpointed. Note that this way of cleaning is still enough to keep freeing space in the journal after fully checkpointed transactions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __process_buffer() is only called by jbd2_log_do_checkpoint(), and it had a very complex locking protocol where it would be called with the j_list_lock, and sometimes exit with the lock held (if the return code was 0), or release the lock. This was confusing both to humans and to smatch (which erronously complained that the lock was taken twice). Folding __process_buffer() to the caller allows us to simplify the control flow, making the resulting function easier to read and reason about, and dropping the compiled size of fs/jbd2/checkpoint.c by 150 bytes (over 4% of the text size).

It seems that we need to drop the checkpoint_mutex while sitting in jbd2_log_wait_commit, if we want to guarantee that progress can be made by jbd2_journal_commit_transaction(). There does not seem to be anything preempt-rt specific about this, other then perhaps increasing the odds of it happening.

* jbd2: issue cache flush after checkpointing even with internal journalJan Kara2012-03-131-63/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we reach jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail(), there is no guarantee that checkpointed buffers are on a stable storage - especially if buffers were written out by jbd2_log_do_checkpoint(), they are likely to be only in disk's caches. Thus when we update journal superblock effectively removing old transaction from journal, this write of superblock can get to stable storage before those checkpointed buffers which can result in filesystem corruption after a crash. Thus we must unconditionally issue a cache flush before we update journal superblock in these cases. A similar problem can also occur if journal superblock is written only in disk's caches, other transaction starts reusing space of the transaction cleaned from the log and power failure happens. Subsequent journal replay would still try to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update in-memory information only after that.

But in cfq, the async queue has a very low priority, and in our test, if there are too many sync queues and every queue is filled up with requests, the write request will be delayed for quite a long time and all the tasks which are waiting for journal space will end with errors like: INFO: task attr_set:3816 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

* jbd2: Fix oops in jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head()Jan Kara2011-06-131-12/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() can oops when trying to access journal_head returned by bh2jh(). This is caused for example by the following race: TASK1 TASK2 jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() ... processing t_forget list __jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(jh); if (!jh->b_transaction) { jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh); jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() jbd2_journal_grab_journal_head(bh) jbd_lock_bh_state(bh) __journal_try_to_free_buffer() jbd2_journal_put_journal_head(jh) jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head(bh); jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() in TASK2 sees that b_jcount == 0 and buffer is not part of any transaction and thus frees journal_head before TASK1 gets to doing so. Note that even buffer_head can be released by try_to_free_buffers() after jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() which adds even larger opportunity for oops (but I didn't see this happen in reality). Fix the problem by making transactions hold their own journal_head reference (in b_jcount). That way we don't have to remove journal_head explicitely via jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() and instead just remove journal_head when b_jcount drops to zero. The result of this is that [__]jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(), [__]jbd2_journal_unfile_buffer(), and __jdb2_journal_remove_checkpoint() can free journal_head which needs modification of a few callers. Also we have to be careful because once journal_head is removed, buffer_head might be freed as well. So we have to get our own buffer_head reference where it matters.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | All the blkdev_issue_* helpers can only sanely be used for synchronous caller. To issue cache flushes or barriers asynchronously the caller needs to set up a bio by itself with a completion callback to move the asynchronous state machine ahead. So drop the BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT flag that is always specified when calling blkdev_issue_* and also remove the now unused flags argument to blkdev_issue_flush and blkdev_issue_zeroout. For blkdev_issue_discard we need to keep it for the secure discard flag, which gains a more descriptive name and loses the bitops vs flag confusion.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a bit complicated because we are trying to optimize when we send barriers to the fs data disk. We could just throw in an extra barrier to the data disk whenever we send a barrier to the journal disk, but that's not always strictly necessary. We only need to send a barrier during a commit when there are data blocks which are must be written out due to an inode written in ordered mode, or if fsync() depends on the commit to force data blocks to disk. Finally, before we drop transactions from the beginning of the journal during a checkpoint operation, we need to guarantee that any blocks that were flushed out to the data disk are firmly on the rust platter before we drop the transaction from the journal.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 23f8b79e introducd a regression because it assumed that if there were no transactions ready to be checkpointed, that no progress could be made on making space available in the journal, and so the journal should be aborted. This assumption is false; it could be the case that simply calling jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() will recover the necessary space, or, for small journals, the currently committing transaction could be responsible for chewing up the required space in the log, so we need to wait for the currently committing transaction to finish before trying to force a checkpoint operation.

* jbd2: fix error handling for checkpoint ioHidehiro Kawai2008-10-101-12/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a checkpointing IO fails, current JBD2 code doesn't check the error and continue journaling. This means latest metadata can be lost from both the journal and filesystem. This patch leaves the failed metadata blocks in the journal space and aborts journaling in the case of jbd2_log_do_checkpoint(). To achieve this, we need to do: 1. don't remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list where in the case of __try_to_free_cp_buf() because it may be released or overwritten by a later transaction 2. jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() is the last chance, remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list and abort the journal 3. when checkpointing fails, don't update the journal super block to prevent the journaled contents from being cleaned. For safety, don't update j_tail and j_tail_sequence either 4. when checkpointing fails, notify this error to the ext4 layer so that ext4 don't clear the needs_recovery flag, otherwise the journaled contents are ignored and cleaned in the recovery phase 5. if the recovery fails, keep the needs_recovery flag 6. prevent jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() from being called between __jbd2_journal_drop_transaction() and jbd2_journal_abort() (a possible race issue between jbd2_log_do_checkpoint()s called by jbd2_journal_flush() and __jbd2_log_wait_for_space()) Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

Not only does it double the size of a spinlock but it changes locking to a potentially less optimal trylock. Put all of that under CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, and introduce a __raw_spin_is_contended that uses the lock data itself to determine whether there are waiters on the lock, to be used if CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK is not set. Rename need_lockbreak to spin_needbreak, make it use spin_is_contended to decouple it from the spinlock implementation, and make it typesafe (rwlocks do not have any need_lockbreak sites -- why do they even get bloated up with that break_lock then?).

* jbd2: Fix assertion failure in fs/jbd2/checkpoint.cJan Kara2008-01-281-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before we start committing a transaction, we call __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() to cleanup transaction's written-back buffers. If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :). We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a transaction in T_FINISHED state. The locking there is subtle though (as everywhere in JBD ;(). We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction can get to T_FINISHED state. Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary - checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a transaction must be already committed to be processed or from __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus transaction cannot change state either.
