2011-05-24jbd2: Add function jbd2_trans_will_send_data_barrier()Jan Kara
Provide a function which returns whether a transaction with given tid will send a flush to the filesystem device. The function will be used by ext4 to detect whether fsync needs to send a separate flush or not. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2011-05-24jbd2: fix sending of data flush on journal commitJan Kara
In data=ordered mode, it's theoretically possible (however rare) that an inode is filed to transaction's t_inode_list and a flusher thread writes all the data and inode is reclaimed before the transaction starts to commit. In such a case, we could erroneously omit sending a flush to file system device when it is different from the journal device (because data can still be in disk cache only). Fix the problem by setting a flag in a transaction when some inode is added to it and then send disk flush in the commit code when the flag is set.

2011-05-23jbd2: Fix the wrong calculation of t_max_wait in update_t_max_waitTao Ma
t_max_wait is added in commit 8e85fb3f to indicate how long we were waiting for new transaction to start. In commit 6d0bf005, it is moved to another function named update_t_max_wait to avoid a build warning. But the wrong thing is that the original 'ts' is initialized in the start of function start_this_handle and we can calculate t_max_wait in the right way. while with this change, ts is initialized within the function and t_max_wait can never be calculated right. This patch moves the initialization of ts to the original beginning of start_this_handle and pass it to function update_t_max_wait so that it can be calculated right and the build warning is avoided also.

2011-05-08jbd2: Fix forever sleeping process in do_get_write_access()Jan Kara
In do_get_write_access() we wait on BH_Unshadow bit for buffer to get from shadow state. The waking code in journal_commit_transaction() has a bug because it does not issue a memory barrier after the buffer is moved from the shadow state and before wake_up_bit() is called. Thus a waitqueue check can happen before the buffer is actually moved from the shadow state and waiting process may never be woken. Fix the problem by issuing proper barrier.

2011-05-01jbd2: fix fsync() tid wraparound bugTheodore Ts'o
If an application program does not make any changes to the indirect blocks or extent tree, i_datasync_tid will not get updated. If there are enough commits (i.e., 2**31) such that tid_geq()'s calculations wrap, and there isn't a currently active transaction at the time of the fdatasync() call, this can end up triggering a BUG_ON in fs/jbd2/commit.c: J_ASSERT(journal->j_running_transaction != NULL); It's pretty rare that this can happen, since it requires the use of fdatasync() plus *very* frequent and excessive use of fsync(). But with the right workload, it can. We fix this by replacing the use of tid_geq() with an equality test, since there's only one valid transaction id that we is valid for us to wait until it is commited: namely, the currently running transaction (if it exists).

2011-04-05jbd2: fix potential memory leak on transaction commitZhang Huan
There is potential memory leak of journal head in function jbd2_journal_commit_transaction. The problem is that JBD2 will not reclaim the journal head of commit record if error occurs or journal is abotred. I use the following script to reproduce this issue, on a RHEL6 system. I found it very easy to reproduce with async commit enabled. mount /dev/sdb /mnt -o journal_checksum,journal_async_commit touch /mnt/xxx echo offline > /sys/block/sdb/device/state sync umount /mnt rmmod ext4 rmmod jbd2 Removal of the jbd2 module will make slab complaining that "cache `jbd2_journal_head': can't free all objects".

2011-02-12jbd2: call __jbd2_log_start_commit with j_state_lock write lockedTheodore Ts'o
On an SMP ARM system running ext4, I've received a report that the first J_ASSERT in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction has been triggering: J_ASSERT(journal->j_running_transaction != NULL); While investigating possible causes for this problem, I noticed that __jbd2_log_start_commit() is getting called with j_state_lock only read-locked, in spite of the fact that it's possible for it might j_commit_request. Fix this by grabbing the necessary information so we can test to see if we need to start a new transaction before dropping the read lock, and then calling jbd2_log_start_commit() which will grab the write lock.

2010-10-28jbd2: Fix I/O hang in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inodeBrian King
This fixes a hang seen in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode on a lot of Power 6 systems running with ext4. When we get in the hung state, all I/O to the disk in question gets blocked where we stay indefinitely. Looking at the task list, I can see we are stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode waiting on a wake up. I added some debug code to detect this scenario and dump additional data if we were stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode for longer than 30 minutes. When it hit, I was able to see that i_flags was 0, suggesting we missed the wake up. This patch changes i_flags to be an unsigned long, uses bit operators to access it, and adds barriers around the accesses. Prior to applying this patch, we were regularly hitting this hang on numerous systems in our test environment. After applying the patch, the hangs no longer occur.

2010-09-20cfq: improve fsync performance for small filesCorrado Zoccolo
Fsync performance for small files achieved by cfq on high-end disks is lower than what deadline can achieve, due to idling introduced between the sync write happening in process context and the journal commit. Moreover, when competing with a sequential reader, a process writing small files and fsync-ing them is starved. This patch fixes the two problems by: - marking journal commits as WRITE_SYNC, so that they get the REQ_NOIDLE flag set, - force all queues that have REQ_NOIDLE requests to be put in the noidle tree. Having the queue associated to the fsync-ing process and the one associated to journal commits in the noidle tree allows: - switching between them without idling, - fairness vs. competing idling queues, since they will be serviced only after the noidle tree expires its slice.

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.

2010-09-10JBD2: Allow feature checks before journal recoveryPatrick J. LoPresti
Before we start accessing a huge (> 16 TiB) OCFS2 volume, we need to confirm that its journal supports 64-bit offsets. In particular, we need to check the journal's feature bits before recovering the journal. This is not possible with JBD2 at present, because the journal superblock (where the feature bits reside) is not loaded from disk until the journal is recovered. This patch loads the journal superblock in jbd2_journal_check_used_features() if it has not already been loaded, allowing us to check the feature bits before journal recovery.

2010-08-04jbd2: Remove t_handle_lock from start_this_handle()Theodore Ts'o
This should remove the last exclusive lock from start_this_handle(), so that we should now be able to start multiple transactions at the same time on large SMP systems. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2010-08-04jbd2: Change j_state_lock to be a rwlock_tTheodore Ts'o
Lockstat reports have shown that j_state_lock is a major source of lock contention, especially on systems with more than 4 CPU cores. So change it to be a read/write spinlock. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2010-08-02jbd2: Use atomic variables to avoid taking t_handle_lock in jbd2_journal_stopTheodore Ts'o
By using an atomic_t for t_updates and t_outstanding credits, this should allow us to not need to take transaction t_handle_lock in jbd2_journal_stop(). Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
