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.

2013-08-28ext4: 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.

2013-08-17ext4: fix lost truncate due to race with writebackJan Kara
The following race can lead to a loss of i_disksize update from truncate thus resulting in a wrong inode size if the inode size isn't updated again before inode is reclaimed: ext4_setattr() mpage_map_and_submit_extent() EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize = attr->ia_size; ... ... disksize = ((loff_t)mpd->first_page) << PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT /* False because i_size isn't * updated yet */ if (disksize > i_size_read(inode)) /* True, because i_disksize is * already truncated */ if (disksize > EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize) /* Overwrite i_disksize * update from truncate */ ext4_update_i_disksize() i_size_write(inode, attr->ia_size); For other places updating i_disksize such race cannot happen because i_mutex prevents these races. Writeback is the only place where we do not hold i_mutex and we cannot grab it there because of lock ordering. We fix the race by doing both i_disksize and i_size update in truncate atomically under i_data_sem and in mpage_map_and_submit_extent() we move the check against i_size under i_data_sem as well.

reaim workfile.dbase test easily triggers warning in ext4_da_update_reserve_space(): EXT4-fs warning (device ram0): ext4_da_update_reserve_space:365: ino 12, allocated 1 with only 0 reserved metadata blocks (releasing 1 blocks with reserved 9 data blocks) The problem is that (one of) tests creates file and then randomly writes to it with O_SYNC. That results in writing back pages of the file in random order so we create extents for written blocks say 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 - this last allocation also allocates new block for extents. Then we writeout block 1 so we have extents 0-2, 4, 6, 8 and we release indirect extent block because extents fit in the inode again. Then we writeout block 10 and we need to allocate indirect extent block again which triggers the warning because we don't have the reservation anymore. Fix the problem by giving back freed metadata blocks resulting from extent merging into inode's reservation pool. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2013-08-17ext4: add support for extent pre-cachingTheodore Ts'o
Add a new fiemap flag which forces the all of the extents in an inode to be cached in the extent_status tree. This is critically important when using AIO to a preallocated file, since if we need to read in blocks from the extent tree, the io_submit(2) system call becomes synchronous, and the AIO is no longer "A", which is bad. In addition, for most files which have an external leaf tree block, the cost of caching the information in the extent status tree will be less than caching the entire 4k block in the buffer cache. So it is generally a win to keep the extent information cached. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

In the bug fixes category, of note is a fix for on-line resizing file systems where the block size is smaller than the page size (i.e., file systems 1k blocks on x86, or more interestingly file systems with 4k blocks on Power or ia64 systems.) In the cleanup category, the ext4's punch hole implementation was significantly improved by Lukas Czerner, and now supports bigalloc file systems. In addition, Jan Kara significantly cleaned up the write submission code path. We also improved error checking and added a few sanity checks. In the optimizations category, two major optimizations deserve mention. The first is that ext4_writepages() is now used for nodelalloc and ext3 compatibility mode. This allows writes to be submitted much more efficiently as a single bio request, instead of being sent as individual 4k writes into the block layer (which then relied on the elevator code to coalesce the requests in the block queue). Secondly, the extent cache shrink mechanism, which was introduce in 3.9, no longer has a scalability bottleneck caused by the i_es_lru spinlock.

2013-07-01ext4: improve extent cache shrink mechanism to avoid to burn CPU timeZheng Liu
Now we maintain an proper in-order LRU list in ext4 to reclaim entries from extent status tree when we are under heavy memory pressure. For keeping this order, a spin lock is used to protect this list. But this lock burns a lot of CPU time. We can use the following steps to trigger it. % cd /dev/shm % dd if=/dev/zero of=ext4-img bs=1M count=2k % mkfs.ext4 ext4-img % mount -t ext4 -o loop ext4-img /mnt % cd /mnt % for ((i=0;i<160;i++)); do truncate -s 64g $i; done % for ((i=0;i<160;i++)); do cp $i /dev/null &; done % perf record -a -g % perf report This commit tries to fix this problem. Now a new member called i_touch_when is added into ext4_inode_info to record the last access time for an inode. Meanwhile we never need to keep a proper in-order LRU list. So this can avoid to burns some CPU time. When we try to reclaim some entries from extent status tree, we use list_sort() to get a proper in-order list. Then we traverse this list to discard some entries. In ext4_sb_info, we use s_es_last_sorted to record the last time of sorting this list. When we traverse the list, we skip the inode that is newer than this time, and move this inode to the tail of LRU list. When the head of the list is newer than s_es_last_sorted, we will sort the LRU list again. In this commit, we break the loop if s_extent_cache_cnt == 0 because that means that all extents in extent status tree have been reclaimed. Meanwhile in this commit, ext4_es_{un}register_shrinker()'s prototype is changed to save a local variable in these functions.

2013-06-04ext4: defer clearing of PageWriteback after extent conversionJan Kara
Currently PageWriteback bit gets cleared from put_io_page() called from ext4_end_bio(). This is somewhat inconvenient as extent tree is not fully updated at that time (unwritten extents are not marked as written) so we cannot read the data back yet. This design was dictated by lock ordering as we cannot start a transaction while PageWriteback bit is set (we could easily deadlock with ext4_da_writepages()). But now that we use transaction reservation for extent conversion, locking issues are solved and we can move PageWriteback bit clearing after extent conversion is done. As a result we can remove wait for unwritten extent conversion from ext4_sync_file() because it already implicitely happens through wait_on_page_writeback(). We implement deferring of PageWriteback clearing by queueing completed bios to appropriate io_end and processing all the pages when io_end is going to be freed instead of at the moment ext4_io_end() is called.

2013-06-04ext4: restructure writeback pathJan Kara
There are two issues with current writeback path in ext4. For one we don't necessarily map complete pages when blocksize < pagesize and thus needn't do any writeback in one iteration. We always map some blocks though so we will eventually finish mapping the page. Just if writeback races with other operations on the file, forward progress is not really guaranteed. The second problem is that current code structure makes it hard to associate all the bios to some range of pages with one io_end structure so that unwritten extents can be converted after all the bios are finished. This will be especially difficult later when io_end will be associated with reserved transaction handle. We restructure the writeback path to a relatively simple loop which first prepares extent of pages, then maps one or more extents so that no page is partially mapped, and once page is fully mapped it is submitted for IO. We keep all the mapping and IO submission information in mpage_da_data structure to somewhat reduce stack usage. Resulting code is somewhat shorter than the old one and hopefully also easier to read.

2013-05-28ext4: use ext4_zero_partial_blocks in punch_holeLukas Czerner
We're doing to get rid of ext4_discard_partial_page_buffers() since it is duplicating some code and also partially duplicating work of truncate_pagecache_range(), moreover the old implementation was much clearer. Now when the truncate_inode_pages_range() can handle truncating non page aligned regions we can use this to invalidate and zero out block aligned region of the punched out range and then use ext4_block_truncate_page() to zero the unaligned blocks on the start and end of the range. This will greatly simplify the punch hole code. Moreover after this commit we can get rid of the ext4_discard_partial_page_buffers() completely. We also introduce function ext4_prepare_punch_hole() to do come common operations before we attempt to do the actual punch hole on indirect or extent file which saves us some code duplication.

2013-04-19ext4: fix readdir error in the case of inline_data+dir_indexTao Ma
Zach reported a problem that if inline data is enabled, we don't tell the difference between the offset of '.' and '..'. And a getdents will fail if the user only want to get '.' and what's worse, if there is a conversion happens when the user calls getdents many times, he/she may get the same entry twice. In theory, a dir block would also fail if it is converted to a hashed-index based dir since f_pos will become a hash value, not the real one, but it doesn't happen. And a deep investigation shows that we uses a hash based solution even for a normal dir if the dir_index feature is enabled. So this patch just adds a new htree_inlinedir_to_tree for inline dir, and if we find that the hash index is supported, we will do like what we do for a dir block.

2013-04-12ext4: make ext4_bio_write_page() use BH_Async_Write flagsJan Kara
So far ext4_bio_write_page() attached all the pages to ext4_io_end structure. This makes that structure pretty heavy (1 KB for pointers + 16 bytes per page attached to the bio). Also later we would like to share ext4_io_end structure among several bios in case IO to a single extent needs to be split among several bios and pointing to pages from ext4_io_end makes this complex. We remove page pointers from ext4_io_end and use pointers from bio itself instead. This isn't as easy when blocksize < pagesize because then we can have several bios in flight for a single page and we have to be careful when to call end_page_writeback(). However this is a known problem already solved by block_write_full_page() / end_buffer_async_write() so we mimic its behavior here. We mark buffers going to disk with BH_Async_Write flag and in ext4_bio_end_io() we check whether there are any buffers with BH_Async_Write flag left. If there are not, we can call end_page_writeback().

2013-04-10ext4: introduce reserved spaceLukas Czerner
Currently in ENOSPC condition when writing into unwritten space, or punching a hole, we might need to split the extent and grow extent tree. However since we can not allocate any new metadata blocks we'll have to zero out unwritten part of extent or punched out part of extent, or in the worst case return ENOSPC even though use actually does not allocate any space. Also in delalloc path we do reserve metadata and data blocks for the time we're going to write out, however metadata block reservation is very tricky especially since we expect that logical connectivity implies physical connectivity, however that might not be the case and hence we might end up allocating more metadata blocks than previously reserved. So in future, metadata reservation checks should be removed since we can not assure that we do not under reserve. And this is where reserved space comes into the picture. When mounting the file system we slice off a little bit of the file system space (2% or 4096 clusters, whichever is smaller) which can be then used for the cases mentioned above to prevent costly zeroout, or unexpected ENOSPC. The number of reserved clusters can be set via sysfs, however it can never be bigger than number of free clusters in the file system. Note that this patch fixes the failure of xfstest 274 as expected.

2013-04-08ext4: implementation of a new ioctl called EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOTDr. Tilmann Bubeck
Add a new ioctl, EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT which swaps i_blocks and associated attributes (like i_blocks, i_size, i_flags, ...) from the specified inode with inode EXT4_BOOT_LOADER_INO (#5). This is typically used to store a boot loader in a secure part of the filesystem, where it can't be changed by a normal user by accident. The data blocks of the previous boot loader will be associated with the given inode. This usercode program is a simple example of the usage: int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int fd; int err; if ( argc != 2 ) { printf("usage: ext4-swap-boot-inode FILE-TO-SWAP\n"); exit(1); } fd = open(argv[1], O_WRONLY); if ( fd < 0 ) { perror("open"); exit(1); } err = ioctl(fd, EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT); if ( err < 0 ) { perror("ioctl"); exit(1); } close(fd); exit(0); } [ Modified by Theodore Ts'o to fix a number of bugs in the original code.] Signed-off-by: Dr. Tilmann Bubeck <t.bubeck@reinform.de> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Currently on many places in ext4 we're using ext4_get_group_no_and_offset() even though we're only interested in knowing the block group of the particular block, not the offset within the block group so we can use more efficient way to compute block group.

2013-04-04ext4: make ext4_block_in_group() much more efficientLukas Czerner
Currently in when getting the block group number for a particular block in ext4_block_in_group() we're using ext4_get_group_no_and_offset() which uses do_div() to get the block group and the remainer which is offset within the group. We don't need all of that in ext4_block_in_group() as we only need to figure out the group number. This commit changes ext4_block_in_group() to calculate group number directly. This shows as a big improvement with regards to cpu utilization. Measuring fallocate -l 15T on fresh file system with perf showed that 23% of cpu time was spend in the ext4_get_group_no_and_offset(). With this change it completely disappears from the list only bumping the occurrence of ext4_init_block_bitmap() which is the biggest user of ext4_block_in_group() by 4%. As the result of this change on my system the fallocate call was approx. 10% faster. However since there is '-g' option in mkfs which allow us setting different groups size (mostly for developers) I've introduced new per file system flag whether we have a standard block group size or not. The flag is used to determine whether we can use the bit shift optimization or not. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2013-04-04ext4: support simple conversion of extent-mapped inodes to use i_blocksTheodore Ts'o
In order to make it simpler to test the code which support i_blocks/indirect-mapped inodes, support the conversion of inodes which are less than 12 blocks and which are contained in no more than a single extent. The primary intended use of this code is to converting freshly created zero-length files and empty directories. Note that the version of chattr in e2fsprogs 1.42.7 and earlier has a check that prevents the clearing of the extent flag. A simple patch which allows "chattr -e <file>" to work will be checked into the e2fsprogs git repository. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Move common code in ext4_ind_punch_hole() and ext4_ext_punch_hole() into ext4_punch_hole(). This saves over 150 lines of code. This also fixes a potential bug when the punch_hole() code is racing against indirect-to-extents or extents-to-indirect migation. We are currently using i_mutex to protect against changes to the inode flag; specifically, the append-only, immutable, and extents inode flags. So we need to take i_mutex before deciding whether to use the extents-specific or indirect-specific punch_hole code. Also, there was a missing call to ext4_inode_block_unlocked_dio() in the indirect punch codepath. This was added in commit 02d262dffcf4c to block DIO readers racing against the punch operation in the codepath for extent-mapped inodes, but it was missing for indirect-block mapped inodes. One of the advantages of refactoring the code is that it makes such oversights much less likely. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
