* xfs: improve buffer cache hash scalabilityDave Chinner2010-09-022-8/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When doing large parallel file creates on a 16p machines, large amounts of time is being spent in _xfs_buf_find(). A system wide profile with perf top 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 A 70% drop in the CPU usage when looking up buffers. Unfortunately that does not result in an increase in performance underthis workload as contention on the inode_lock soaks up most of the reduction in CPU usage.

* xfs: don't do memory allocation under the CIL context lockDave Chinner2010-08-241-8/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Formatting items requires memory allocation when using delayed logging. Currently that memory allocation is done while holding the CIL context lock in read mode. This means that if memory allocation takes some time (e.g. enters reclaim), we cannot push on the CIL until the allocation(s) required by formatting complete. This can stall CIL pushes for some time, and once a push is stalled so are all new transaction commits. Fix this splitting the item formatting into two steps. The first step which does the allocation and memcpy() into the allocated buffer is now done outside the CIL context lock, and only the CIL insert is done inside the CIL context lock. This avoids the stall issue. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
* xfs: Reduce log force overhead for delayed loggingDave Chinner2010-08-243-118/+147
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Delayed logging adds some serialisation to the log force process to ensure that it does not deference a bad commit context structure when determining if a CIL push is necessary or not. It does this by grabing the CIL context lock exclusively, then dropping it before pushing the CIL if necessary. This causes serialisation of all log forces and pushes regardless of whether a force is necessary or not. As a result fsync heavy workloads (like dbench) can be significantly slower with delayed logging than without. To avoid this penalty, copy the current sequence from the context to the CIL structure when they are swapped. This allows us to do unlocked checks on the current sequence without having to worry about dereferencing context structures that may have already been freed. Hence we can remove the CIL context locking in the forcing code and only call into the push code if the current context matches the sequence we need to force. By passing the sequence into the push code, we can check the sequence again once we have the CIL lock held exclusive and abort if the sequence has already been pushed. This avoids a lock round-trip and unnecessary CIL pushes when we have racing push calls. The result is that the regression in dbench performance goes away - this change improves dbench performance on a ramdisk from ~2100MB/s to ~2500MB/s. This compares favourably to not using delayed logging which retuns ~2500MB/s for the same workload. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
* xfs: dummy transactions should not dirty VFS stateDave Chinner2010-08-244-51/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we need to cover the log, we issue dummy transactions to ensure the current log tail is on disk. Unfortunately we currently use the root inode in the dummy transaction, and the act of committing the transaction dirties the inode at the VFS level. 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 the log covering state machine to complete successfully and the filesystem now correctly enters a fully idle state about 90s after the last modification was made.

* xfs: ensure f_ffree returned by statfs() is non-negativeStuart Brodsky2010-08-241-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because of delayed updates to sb_icount field in the super block, it is possible to allocate over maxicount number of inodes. This causes the arithmetic to calculate a negative number of free inodes in user commands like df or stat -f. Since maxicount is a somewhat arbitrary number, a slight over allocation is not critical but user commands should be displayed as 0 or greater and never go negative. To do this the value in the stats buffer f_ffree is capped to never go negative.

* xfs: handle negative wbc->nr_to_write during sync writebackDave Chinner2010-08-241-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During data integrity (WB_SYNC_ALL) writeback, wbc->nr_to_write will go negative on inodes with more than 1024 dirty pages due to implementation details of write_cache_pages(). Currently XFS will abort page clustering in writeback once nr_to_write drops below zero, and so for data integrity writeback we will do very inefficient page at a time allocation and IO submission for inodes with large numbers of dirty pages. Fix this by only aborting the page clustering code when wbc->nr_to_write is negative and the sync mode is WB_SYNC_NONE.

* xfs: fix untrusted inode number lookupDave Chinner2010-08-241-6/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 7124fe0a5b619d65b739477b3b55a20bf805b06d ("xfs: validate untrusted inode numbers during lookup") changes the inode lookup code to do btree lookups for untrusted inode numbers. This change made an invalid assumption about the alignment of inodes and hence incorrectly calculated the first inode in the cluster. As a result, some inode numbers were being incorrectly considered invalid when they were actually valid. The issue was not picked up by the xfstests suite because it always runs fsr and dump (the two utilities that utilise the bulkstat interface) on cache hot inodes and hence the lookup code in the cold cache path was not sufficiently exercised to uncover this intermittent problem. Fix the issue by relaxing the btree lookup criteria and then checking if the record returned contains the inode number we are lookup for. If it we get an incorrect record, then the inode number is invalid. Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
* xfs: ensure we mark all inodes in a freed cluster XFS_ISTALEDave Chinner2010-08-241-23/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Under heavy load parallel metadata loads (e.g. dbench), we can fail to mark all the inodes in a cluster being freed as XFS_ISTALE as we skip inodes we cannot get the XFS_ILOCK_EXCL or the flush lock on. When this happens and the inode cluster buffer has already been marked stale and freed, inode reclaim can try to write the inode out as it is dirty and not marked stale. This can result in writing th metadata to an freed extent, or in the case it has already been overwritten trigger a magic number check failure and return an EUCLEAN error such as: Filesystem "ram0": inode 0x442ba1 background reclaim flush failed with 117 Fix this by ensuring that we hoover up all in memory inodes in the cluster and mark them XFS_ISTALE when freeing the cluster.

* xfs: unlock items before allowing the CIL to commitDave Chinner2010-08-243-5/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we commit a transaction using delayed logging, we need to unlock the items in the transaciton before we unlock the CIL context and allow it to be checkpointed. If we unlock them after we release the CIl context lock, the CIL can checkpoint and complete before we free the log items. This breaks stale buffer item unlock and unpin processing as there is an implicit assumption that the unlock will occur before the unpin. Also, some log items need to store the LSN of the transaction commit in the item (inodes and EFIs) and so can race with other transaction completions if we don't prevent the CIL from checkpointing before the unlock occurs.

We still can have errors after updating the file size in xfs_setattr, but these are real I/O errors and lead to a transaction abort and filesystem shutdown, so they are not an issue. Errors from ->write_begin and write_end can now be handled correctly because we can actually get rid of the delalloc extents while previous the buffer state was stipped in block_invalidatepage. There is still no error handling for ->direct_IO, because doing so will need some major restructuring given that we only have the iolock shared and do not hold i_mutex at all. Fortunately leaving the normally allocated blocks behind there is not a major issue and this will get cleaned up by xfs_free_eofblock later.

For a small I/O size direct I/O workload on a consumer grade SSD, such as the untar of a kernel tree inside qemu this patch gives speedups of about 5%.

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.

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we don't remove the XFS mount from the shrinker list until late in the unmount path. By this time, we have already torn down the internals of the filesystem (e.g. the per-ag structures), and hence if the shrinker is executed between the teardown and the unregistering, the shrinker will get NULL per-ag structure pointers and panic trying to dereference them. Fix this by removing the xfs mount from the shrinker list before tearing down it's internal structures.
