This patch stops multiple block allocations if a nonzero
return code is received from gfs2_rbm_from_block. Without
this patch, if enough pressure is put on the file system,
you get a kernel warning quickly followed by:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
IP: [<ffffffffa04f47e8>] gfs2_alloc_blocks+0x2c8/0x880 [gfs2]
With this patch, things run normally.

When rgd->rd_free_clone is less than rgd->rd_reserved, the
unclaimed_blocks() calculation would wrap and produce
incorrect results. This patch checks for this condition
when this function is called from gfs2_mblk_search()
In addition, the use of this particular function in other
places in the code has been dropped by means of a general
clean up of gfs2_inplace_reserve(). This function is now
much easier to follow.
Also the setting of the rgd->rd_last_alloc field is corrected.

This patch improves the tracing of block reservations by
removing some corner cases and also providing more useful
detail in the traces.
A new field is added to the reservation structure to contain
the inode number. This is used since in certain contexts it is
not possible to access the inode itself to obtain this information.
As a result we can then display the inode number for all tracepoints
and also in case we dump the resource group.
The "del" tracepoint operation has been removed. This could be called
with the reservation rgrp set to NULL. That resulted in not printing
the device number, and thus making the information largely useless
anyway. Also, the conditional on the rgrp being NULL can then be
removed from the tracepoint. After this change, all the block
reservation tracepoint calls will be called with the rgrp information.
The existing ins,clm and tdel calls to the block reservation tracepoint
are sufficient to track the entire life of the block reservation.
In gfs2_block_alloc() the error detection is updated to print out
the inode number of the problematic inode. This can then be compared
against the information in the glock dump,tracepoints, etc.

When we get to the stage of allocating blocks, we know that the
resource group in question must contain enough free blocks, otherwise
gfs2_inplace_reserve() would have failed. So if we are left with only
free blocks which are reserved, then we must use those. This can happen
if another node has sneeked in and use some blocks reserved on this
node, for example. Generally this will happen very rarely and only
when the resouce group is nearly full.

This is part of a series of patches which are introducing the
gfs2_rbm structure throughout the block allocation code. The
main aim of this part is to create a search function which can
deal directly with struct gfs2_rbm. In this case it specifies
the initial position at which to start the search and also the
point at which the search terminates.
The net result of this is to clean up the search code and make
it rather more readable, and the various possible exceptions which
may occur during the search are partitioned into their own functions.
There are some bug fixes too. We should not be checking the reservations
while allocating extents - the time for that is when we are searching
for where to put the extent, not when we've already made that decision.
Also, rgblk_search had two uses, and in only one of those cases did
it make sense to check for reservations. This is fixed in the new
gfs2_rbm_find function, which has a cleaner interface.
The reservation checking has been improved by always checking for
contiguous reservations, and returning the first free block after
all contiguous reservations. This is done under the spin lock to
ensure consistancy of the tree.
The allocation of extents is now in all cases done by the existing
allocation code, and if there is an active reservation, that is updated
after the fact. Again this is done under the spin lock, since it entails
changing the lookup key for the reservation in question.

This patch introduces a new structure, gfs2_rbm, which is a
tuple of a resource group, a bitmap within the resource group
and an offset within that bitmap. This is designed to make
manipulating these sets of variables easier. There is also a
new helper function which converts this representation back
to a disk block address.
In addition, the rbtree nodes which are used for the reservations
were not being correctly initialised, which is now fixed. Also,
the tracing was not passing through the inode where it should
have been. That is mostly fixed aside from one corner case. This
needs to be revisited since there can also be a NULL rgrp in
some cases which results in the device being incorrect in the
trace.
This is intended to be the first step towards cleaning up some
of the allocation code, and some further bug fixes.

The rs_requested field is left over from the original allocation
code, however this should have been a parameter passed to the
various functions from gfs2_inplace_reserve() and not a member of the
reservation structure as the value is not required after the
initial allocation.
This also helps simplify the code since we no longer need to set
the rs_requested to zero. Also the gfs2_inplace_release()
function can also be simplified since the reservation structure
will always be defined when it is called, and the only remaining
task is to unlock the rgrp if required. It can also now be
called unconditionally too, resulting in a further simplification.

Pull GFS2 fixes from Steven Whitehouse:
"Here are three GFS2 fixes for the current kernel tree. These are all
related to the block reservation code which was added at the merge
window. That code will be getting an update at the forthcoming merge
window too. In the mean time though there are a few smaller issues
which should be fixed.
The first patch resolves an issue with write sizes of greater than 32
bits with the size hinting code. The second ensures that the
allocation data structure is initialised when using xattrs and the
third takes into account allocations which may have been made by other
nodes which affect a reservation on the local node."

GFS2: Take account of blockages when using reserved blocks
GFS2: Fix missing allocation data for set/remove xattr
GFS2: Make write size hinting code common
|
|
The claim_reserved_blks() function was not taking account of
the possibility of "blockages" while performing allocation.
This can be caused by another node allocating something in
the same extent which has been reserved locally.
This patch tests for this condition and then skips the remainder
of the reservation in this case. This is a relatively rare event,
so that it should not affect the general performance improvement
which the block reservations provide.
The claim_reserved_blks() function also appears not to be able
to deal with reservations which cross bitmap boundaries, but
that can be dealt with in a future patch since we don't generate
boundary crossing reservations currently.

Since the moment writes to quota files are using block device page cache and
space for quota structures is reserved at the moment they are first accessed we
have no reason to sync quota before inode writeback. In fact this order is now
only harmful since quota information can easily change during inode writeback
(either because conversion of delayed-allocated extents or simply because of
allocation of new blocks for simple filesystems not using page_mkwrite).
So move syncing of quota information after writeback of inodes into ->sync_fs
method. This way we do not have to use ->quota_sync callback which is primarily
intended for use by quotactl syscall anyway and we get rid of calling
->sync_fs() twice unnecessarily. We skip quota syncing for OCFS2 since it does
proper quota journalling in all cases (unlike ext3, ext4, and reiserfs which
also support legacy non-journalled quotas) and thus there are no dirty quota
structures.

This patch reduces GFS2 file fragmentation by pre-reserving blocks. The
resulting improved on disk layout greatly speeds up operations in cases
which would have resulted in interlaced allocation of blocks previously.
A typical example of this is 10 parallel dd processes, each writing to a
file in a common dirctory.
The implementation uses an rbtree of reservations attached to each
resource group (and each inode).

This patch fixes buffer_head double free in following code path:
gfs2_block_map
=> gfs2_meta_inode_buffer
=> gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer
=> gfs2_meta_read
=> release_metapath
gfs2_block_map calls gfs2_meta_inode_buffer with &mp.mp_bh[0]
as an argument. mp.mp_bh are filled with zero at the beginning
of gfs2_block_map.
If gfs2_meta_inode_buffer returns non-zero value, gfs2_block_map
calls release_metapath to free buffers chained to mp.mp_bh.
release_metapath checks each slot of mp.mp_bh[i] and
free(with brelse) unless the slot is filled with NULL.
&mp.mp_bh[0] passed to gfs2_meta_inode_buffer is filled at
gfs2_meta_read. gfs2_meta_read is filled a buffer allocated with
gfs2_getbuf even if EIO occurs. When EIO occurs, the allocated buffer
is brelse'ed though the pointer(wrong poiner) points the brelse'ed is
passed back to caller via an argument bhp.
gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer, the caller also pass the wrong pointer
to its caller with EIO. Finally gfs2_block_map gets both EIO and
&mp.mp_bh[0] filled with the wrong pointer. release_metapath
calls brelse again on the wrong pointer.

Instead of reading in the resource groups when gfs2 is checking
for free space to allocate from, gfs2 can store the necessary infromation
in the resource group's lvb. Also, instead of searching for unlinked
inodes in every resource group that's checked for free space, gfs2 can
store the number of unlinked but inodes in the lvb, and only check for
unlinked inodes if it will find some.
The first time a resource group is locked, the lvb must initialized.
Since this involves counting the unlinked inodes in the resource group,
this takes a little extra time. But after that, if the resource group
is locked with GL_SKIP, the buffer head won't be read in unless it's
actually needed.
Enabling the resource groups lvbs is done via the rgrplvb mount option. If
this option isn't set, the lvbs will still be set and updated, but they won't
be verfied or used by the filesystem. To safely turn on this option, all of
the nodes mounting the filesystem must be running code with this patch, and
the filesystem must have been completely unmounted since they were updated.

For the glocks and glstats seq_files, which are exposed via debugfs
we should cache the most recent hash bucket, along with the offset
into that bucket. This allows us to restart from that point, rather
than having to begin at the beginning each time.
This is an idea from Eric Dumazet, however I've slightly extended it
so that if the position from which we are due to start is at any
point beyond the last cached point, we start from the last cached
point, plus whatever is the appropriate offset. I don't really expect
people to be lseeking around these files, but if they did so with only
positive offsets, then we'd still get some of the benefit of using a
cached offset.
With my simple test of around 200k entries in the file, I'm seeing
an approx 10x speed up.

When we read an invalid block from the journal, we should not call
withdraw, but simply print a message and return an error. It is
up to the caller to then handle that error. In the case of mount
that means a failed mount, rather than a withdraw (requiring a
reboot). In the case of recovering another nodes journal then
we return an error via the uevent.
