2011-07-20xfs: convert AIL cursors to use struct list_headDave Chinner
The list of active AIL cursors uses a roll-your-own linked list with special casing for the AIL push cursor. Simplify this code by replacing the list with standard struct list_head lists, and use a separate list_head to track the active cursors. This allows us to treat the AIL push cursor as a generic cursor rather than as a special case, further simplifying the code. Further, fix the duplicate push cursor initialisation that the special case handling was hiding, and clean up all the comments around the active cursor list handling.

2011-07-20xfs: remove confusing ail cursor wrapperDave Chinner
xfs_trans_ail_cursor_set() doesn't set the cursor to the current log item, it sets it to the next item. There is already a function for doing this - xfs_trans_ail_cursor_next() - and the _set function is simply a two line wrapper. Remove it and open code the setting of the cursor in the two locations that call it to remove the confusion.

2011-07-20xfs: use a cursor for bulk AIL insertionDave Chinner
Delayed logging can insert tens of thousands of log items into the AIL at the same LSN. When the committing of log commit records occur, we can get insertions occurring at an LSN that is not at the end of the AIL. If there are thousands of items in the AIL on the tail LSN, each insertion has to walk the AIL to find the correct place to insert the new item into the AIL. This can consume large amounts of CPU time and block other operations from occurring while the traversals are in progress. To avoid this repeated walk, use a AIL cursor to record where we should be inserting the new items into the AIL without having to repeat the walk. The cursor infrastructure already provides this functionality for push walks, so is a simple extension of existing code. While this will not avoid the initial walk, it will avoid repeating it tens of thousands of times during a single checkpoint commit. This version includes logic improvements from Christoph Hellwig.

2011-07-20xfs: failure mapping nfs fh to inode should return ESTALEJ. Bruce Fields
On xfs exports, nfsd is incorrectly returning ENOENT instead of ESTALE on attempts to use a filehandle of a deleted file (spotted with pynfs test PUTFH3). The ENOENT was coming from xfs_iget. (It's tempting to wonder whether we should just map all xfs_iget errors to ESTALE, but I don't believe so--xfs_iget can also return ENOMEM at least, which we wouldn't want mapped to ESTALE.) While we're at it, the other return of ENOENT in xfs_nfs_get_inode() also looks wrong. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>

This reverts commit 7a249cf83da1813cfa71cfe1e265b40045eceb47. That commit created a situation that could lead to a filesystem hang. As Dave Chinner pointed out, xfs_trans_alloc() could hold a reference to m_active_trans (i.e., keep it non-zero) and then wait for SB_FREEZE_TRANS to complete. Meanwhile a filesystem freeze request could set SB_FREEZE_TRANS and then wait for m_active_trans to drop to zero. Nobody benefits from this sequence of events...

2011-07-08xfs: improve sync behaviour in the face of aggressive dirtyingChristoph Hellwig
The following script from Wu Fengguang shows very bad behaviour in XFS when aggressively dirtying data during a sync on XFS, with sync times up to almost 10 times as long as ext4. A large part of the issue is that XFS writes data out itself two times in the ->sync_fs method, overriding the livelock protection in the core writeback code, and another issue is the lock-less xfs_ioend_wait call, which doesn't prevent new ioend from being queue up while waiting for the count to reach zero. This patch removes the XFS-internal sync calls and relies on the VFS to do it's work just like all other filesystems do. Note that the i_iocount wait which is rather suboptimal is simply removed here. We already do it in ->write_inode, which keeps the current supoptimal behaviour. We'll eventually need to remove that as well, but that's material for a separate commit. ------------------------------ snip ------------------------------ #!/bin/sh umount /dev/sda7 mkfs.xfs -f /dev/sda7 # mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda7 # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda7 mount /dev/sda7 /fs echo $((50<<20)) > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_bytes pid= for i in `seq 10` do dd if=/dev/zero of=/fs/zero-$i bs=1M count=1000 & pid="$pid $!" done sleep 1 tic=$(date +'%s') sync tac=$(date +'%s') echo echo sync time: $((tac-tic)) egrep '(Dirty|Writeback|NFS_Unstable)' /proc/meminfo pidof dd > /dev/null && { kill -9 $pid; echo sync NOT livelocked; } ------------------------------ snip ------------------------------ Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reported-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com> Reviewed-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Also remove the sync parameter from xfs_itruncate_data, which has been unessecary since the introduction of the busy extent list in 2002, and completely dead code since 2003 when the XFS_BMAPI_ASYNC parameter was made a no-op.
