2013-09-05f2fs: optimize gc for better performanceJin Xu
This patch improves the gc efficiency by optimizing the victim selection policy. With this optimization, the random re-write performance could increase up to 20%. For f2fs, when disk is in shortage of free spaces, gc will selects dirty segments and moves valid blocks around for making more space available. The gc cost of a segment is determined by the valid blocks in the segment. The less the valid blocks, the higher the efficiency. The ideal victim segment is the one that has the most garbage blocks. Currently, it searches up to 20 dirty segments for a victim segment. The selected victim is not likely the best victim for gc when there are much more dirty segments. Why not searching more dirty segments for a better victim? The cost of searching dirty segments is negligible in comparison to moving blocks. In this patch, it enlarges the MAX_VICTIM_SEARCH to 4096 to make the search more aggressively for a possible better victim. Since it also applies to victim selection for SSR, it will likely improve the SSR efficiency as well. The test case is simple. It creates as many files until the disk full. The size for each file is 32KB. Then it writes as many as 100000 records of 4KB size to random offsets of random files in sync mode. The testing was done on a 2GB partition of a SDHC card. Let's see the test result of f2fs without and with the patch. --------------------------------------- 2GB partition, SDHC create 52023 files of size 32768 bytes random re-write 100000 records of 4KB --------------------------------------- | file creation (s) | rewrite time (s) | gc count | gc garbage blocks | [no patch] 341 4227 1174 174840 [patched] 324 2958 645 106682 It's obvious that, with the patch, f2fs finishes the test in 20+% less time than without the patch. And internally it does much less gc with higher efficiency than before. Since the performance improvement is related to gc, it might not be so obvious for other tests that do not trigger gc as often as this one ( This is because f2fs selects dirty segments for SSR use most of the time when free space is in shortage). The well-known iozone test tool was not used for benchmarking the patch becuase it seems do not have a test case that performs random re-write on a full disk. This patch is the revised version based on the suggestion from Jaegeuk Kim.

2013-09-05f2fs: merge more bios of node block writesJaegeuk Kim
Previously, we experience bio traces as follows when running simple sequential write test. f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500104928, size = 4K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499922208, size = 368K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499914752, size = 140K -> total 512K The first one is to write an indirect node block, and the others are to write direct node blocks. The reason why there are two separate bios for direct node blocks is: 0. initial state ------------------ ------------------ | | |xxxxxxxx | ------------------ ------------------ 1. write 368K ------------------ ------------------ | | |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW| ------------------ ------------------ 2. write 140K ------------------ ------------------ |WWWWWWW | |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW| ------------------ ------------------ This is because f2fs_write_node_pages tries to write just 512K totally, so that we can lose the chance to merge more bios nicely. After this patch is applied, we can get the following bio traces. f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500103168, size = 8K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500111368, size = 4K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500107272, size = 512K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500108296, size = 512K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500109320, size = 500K And finally, we can improve the sequential write performance, from 458.775 MB/s to 479.945 MB/s on SSD.

2013-09-04direct-io: Implement generic deferred AIO completionsChristoph Hellwig
Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user context using a workqueue. This replaces opencoded and less efficient code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO) and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO. The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating with the filesystems. Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara. I'm not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion.

2013-09-04vfs: allow umount to handle mountpoints without revalidating themJeff Layton
Christopher reported a regression where he was unable to unmount a NFS filesystem where the root had gone stale. The problem is that d_revalidate handles the root of the filesystem differently from other dentries, but d_weak_revalidate does not. We could simply fix this by making d_weak_revalidate return success on IS_ROOT dentries, but there are cases where we do want to revalidate the root of the fs. A umount is really a special case. We generally aren't interested in anything but the dentry and vfsmount that's attached at that point. If the inode turns out to be stale we just don't care since the intent is to stop using it anyway. Try to handle this situation better by treating umount as a special case in the lookup code. Have it resolve the parent using normal means, and then do a lookup of the final dentry without revalidating it. In most cases, the final lookup will come out of the dcache, but the case where there's a trailing symlink or !LAST_NORM entry on the end complicates things a bit.

2013-09-04vfs: call d_op->d_prune() before unhashing dentryYan, Zheng
The d_prune dentry operation is used to notify filesystem when VFS about to prune a hashed dentry from the dcache. There are three code paths that prune dentries: shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree(), prune_dcache_sb() and d_prune_aliases(). For the d_prune_aliases() case, VFS unhashes the dentry first, then call the d_prune dentry operation. This confuses ceph_d_prune() (ceph uses the d_prune dentry operation to maintain a flag indicating whether the complete contents of a directory are in the dcache, pruning unhashed dentry does not affect dir's completeness) This patch fixes the issue by calling the d_prune dentry operation in d_prune_aliases(), before unhashing the dentry. Also make VFS only call the d_prune dentry operation for hashed dentry, to avoid calling the d_prune dentry operation twice when dentry is pruned by d_prune_aliases().

2013-09-03Merge branch 'lockref' (locked reference counts)Linus Torvalds
Merge lockref infrastructure code by me and Waiman Long. I already merged some of the preparatory patches that didn't actually do any semantic changes earlier, but this merges the actual _reason_ for those preparatory patches. The "lockref" structure is a combination "spinlock and reference count" that allows optimized reference count accesses. In particular, it guarantees that the reference count will be updated AS IF the spinlock was held, but using atomic accesses that cover both the reference count and the spinlock words, we can often do the update without actually having to take the lock. This allows us to avoid the nastiest cases of spinlock contention on large machines under heavy pathname lookup loads. When updating the dentry reference counts on a large system, we'll still end up with the cache line bouncing around, but that's much less noticeable than actually having to spin waiting for the lock. * lockref: lockref: implement lockless reference count updates using cmpxchg() lockref: uninline lockref helper functions vfs: reimplement d_rcu_to_refcount() using lockref_get_or_lock() vfs: use lockref_get_not_zero() for optimistic lockless dget_parent() lockref: add 'lockref_get_or_lock() helper

2013-09-02vfs: reimplement d_rcu_to_refcount() using lockref_get_or_lock()Linus Torvalds
This moves __d_rcu_to_refcount() from <linux/dcache.h> into fs/namei.c and re-implements it using the lockref infrastructure instead. It also adds a lot of comments about what is actually going on, because turning a dentry that was looked up using RCU into a long-lived reference counted entry is one of the more subtle parts of the rcu walk. We also used to be _particularly_ subtle in unlazy_walk() where we re-validate both the dentry and its parent using the same sequence count. We used to do it by nesting the locks and then verifying the sequence count just once. That was silly, because nested locking is expensive, but the sequence count check is not. So this just re-validates the dentry and the parent separately, avoiding the nested locking, and making the lockref lookup possible.

We do that by using lockref_get_not_zero(), and then re-checking the parent pointer after getting a valid reference. [ This is a re-implementation of a chunk from the original patch by Waiman Long: "dcache: Enable lockless update of dentry's refcount".

2013-08-29vfs: make the dentry cache use the lockref infrastructureWaiman Long
This just replaces the dentry count/lock combination with the lockref structure that contains both a count and a spinlock, and does the mechanical conversion to use the lockref infrastructure. There are no semantic changes here, it's purely syntactic. The reference lockref implementation uses the spinlock exactly the same way that the old dcache code did, and the bulk of this patch is just expanding the internal "d_count" use in the dcache code to use "d_lockref.count" instead. This is purely preparation for the real change to make the reference count updates be lockless during the 3.12 merge window. [ As with the previous commit, this is a rewritten version of a concept originally from Waiman, so credit goes to him, blame for any errors goes to me. Waiman's patch had some semantic differences for taking advantage of the lockless update in dget_parent(), while this patch is intentionally a pure search-and-replace change with no semantic changes. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2013-08-28ext4: allow specifying external journal by pathname mount optionEric Sandeen
It's always been a hassle that if an external journal's device number changes, the filesystem won't mount. And since boot-time enumeration can change, device number changes aren't unusual. The current mechanism to update the journal location is by passing in a mount option w/ a new devnum, but that's a hassle; it's a manual approach, fixing things after the fact. Adding a mount option, "-o journal_path=/dev/$DEVICE" would help, since then we can do i.e. # mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/$JOURNAL_LABEL ... and it'll mount even if the devnum has changed, as shown here: # losetup /dev/loop0 journalfile # mke2fs -L mylabel-journal -O journal_dev /dev/loop0 # mkfs.ext4 -L mylabel -J device=/dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1 Change the journal device number: # losetup -d /dev/loop0 # losetup /dev/loop1 journalfile And today it will fail: # mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so # dmesg | tail -n 1 [17343.240702] EXT4-fs (sdb1): error: couldn't read superblock of external journal But with this new mount option, we can specify the new path: # mount -o journal_path=/dev/loop1 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test # (which does update the encoded device number, incidentally): # umount /dev/sdb1 # dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdb1 | grep "Journal device" dumpe2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010) Journal device: 0x0701 But best of all we can just always mount by journal-path, and it'll always work: # mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/mylabel-journal /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test # So the journal_path option can be specified in fstab, and as long as the disk is available somewhere, and findable by label (or by UUID), we can mount.

2013-08-28ext4: mark group corrupt on group descriptor checksumDarrick J. Wong
If the group descriptor fails validation, mark the whole blockgroup corrupt so that the inode/block allocators skip this group. The previous approach takes the risk of writing to a damaged group descriptor; hopefully it was never the case that the [ib]bitmap fields pointed to another valid block and got dirtied, since the memset would fill the page with 1s.

2013-08-28ext4: mark block group as corrupt on inode bitmap errorDarrick J. Wong

2013-08-28ext4: mark block group as corrupt on block bitmap errorDarrick J. Wong
When we notice a block-bitmap corruption (because of device failure or something else), we should mark this group as corrupt and prevent further block allocations/deallocations from it. Currently, we end up generating one error message for every block in the bitmap. This potentially could make the system unstable as noticed in some bugs. With this patch, the error will be printed only the first time and mark the entire block group as corrupted. This prevents future access allocations/deallocations from it. Also tested by corrupting the block bitmap and forcefully introducing the mb_free_blocks error: (1) create a largefile (2Gb) $ dd if=/dev/zero of=largefile oflag=direct bs=10485760 count=200 (2) umount filesystem. use dumpe2fs to see which block-bitmaps are in use by largefile and note their block numbers (3) use dd to zero-out the used block bitmaps $ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdc4 bs=4096 seek=14 count=8 oflag=direct (4) mount the FS and delete the largefile. (5) recreate the largefile. verify that the new largefile does not get any blocks from the groups marked as bad. Without the patch, we will see mb_free_blocks error for each bit in each zero'ed out bitmap at (4). With the patch, we only see the error once per blockgroup: [ 309.706803] EXT4-fs error (device sdb4): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:735: group 15: 32768 clusters in bitmap, 0 in gd. blk grp corrupted.

2013-08-28ext4: error out if verifying the block bitmap failsDarrick J. Wong
The block bitmap verification code assumes that calling ext4_error() either panics the system or makes the fs readonly. However, this is not always true: when 'errors=continue' is specified, an error is printed but we don't return any indication of error to the caller, which is (probably) the block allocator, which pretends that the crud we read in off the disk is a usable bitmap. Yuck. A block bitmap that fails the check should at least return no bitmap to the caller. The block allocator should be told to go look in a different group, but that's a separate issue. The easiest way to reproduce this is to modify bg_block_bitmap (on a ^flex_bg fs) to point to a block outside the block group; or you can create a metadata_csum filesystem and zero out the block bitmaps.

After applied the commit (4a092d73), we have reduced the number of source files that need to #include ext4_extents.h. But we can do better. This commit defines ext4_zeroout_es() in extents.c and move EXT_MAX_BLOCKS into ext4.h in order not to include ext4_extents.h in indirect.c and ioctl.c. Meanwhile we just need to include this file in extent_status.c when ES_AGGRESSIVE_TEST is defined. Otherwise, this commit removes a duplicated declaration in trace/events/ext4.h. After applied this patch, we just need to include ext4_extents.h file in {super,migrate,move_extents,extents}.c, and it is easy for us to define a new extent disk layout.

2013-08-28Revert "fs: Allow unprivileged linkat(..., AT_EMPTY_PATH) aka flink"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit bb2314b47996491bbc5add73633905c3120b6268. It wasn't necessarily wrong per se, but we're still busily discussing the exact details of this all, so I'm going to revert it for now. It's true that you can already do flink() through /proc and that flink() isn't new. But as Brad Spengler points out, some secure environments do not mount proc, and flink adds a new interface that can avoid path lookup of the source for those kinds of environments. We may re-do this (and even mark it for stable backporting back in 3.11 and possibly earlier) once the whole discussion about the interface is done.
