      ext4: minor defrag code improvements · d412df53
      Eric Whitney authored 
      Modify the error returns for two file types that can't be defragged to
more clearly communicate those restrictions to a caller.  When the
defrag code is applied to swap files, return -ETXTBSY, and when applied
to quota files, return -EOPNOTSUPP.  Move an extent tree search whose
results are only occasionally required to the site always requiring them
for improved efficiency.  Address a few typos.

      ext4: limit the number of retries after discarding preallocations blocks · 80fa46d6
      Theodore Ts'o authored 
      This patch avoids threads live-locking for hours when a large number
threads are competing over the last few free extents as they blocks
getting added and removed from preallocation pools.  From our bug
reporter:

   A reliable way for triggering this has multiple writers
   continuously write() to files when the filesystem is full, while
   small amounts of space are freed (e.g. by truncating a large file
   -1MiB at a time). In the local filesystem, this can be done by
   simply not checking the return code of write (0) and/or the error
   (ENOSPACE) that is set. Over NFS with an async mount, even clients
   with proper error checking will behave this way since the linux NFS
   client implementation will not propagate the server errors [the
   write syscalls immediately return success] until the file handle is
   closed. This leads to a situation where NFS clients send a
   continuous stream of WRITE rpcs which result in ERRNOSPACE -- but
   since the client isn't seeing this, the stream of writes continues
   at maximum network speed.

   When some space does appear, multiple writers will all attempt to
   claim it for their current write. For NFS, we may see dozens to
   hundreds of threads that do this.

   The real-world scenario of this is database backup tooling (in
   particular, github.com/mdkent/percona-xtrabackup) which may write
   large files (>1TiB) to NFS for safe keeping. Some temporary files
   are written, rewound, and read back -- all before closing the file
   handle (the temp file is actually unlinked, to trigger automatic
   deletion on close/crash.) An application like this operating on an
   async NFS mount will not see an error code until TiB have been
   written/read.

   The lockup was observed when running this database backup on large
   filesystems (64 TiB in this case) with a high number of block
   groups and no free space. Fragmentation is generally not a factor
   in this filesystem (~thousands of large files, mostly contiguous
   except for the parts written while the filesystem is at capacity.)

      ext4: fix bug in extents parsing when eh_entries == 0 and eh_depth > 0 · 29a5b8a1
      Luís Henriques authored 
      When walking through an inode extents, the ext4_ext_binsearch_idx() function
assumes that the extent header has been previously validated.  However, there
are no checks that verify that the number of entries (eh->eh_entries) is
non-zero when depth is > 0.  And this will lead to problems because the
EXT_FIRST_INDEX() and EXT_LAST_INDEX() will return garbage and result in this:

      ext4: use buckets for cr 1 block scan instead of rbtree · 83e80a6e
      Jan Kara authored 
      Using rbtree for sorting groups by average fragment size is relatively
expensive (needs rbtree update on every block freeing or allocation) and
leads to wide spreading of allocations because selection of block group
is very sentitive both to changes in free space and amount of blocks
allocated. Furthermore selecting group with the best matching average
fragment size is not necessary anyway, even more so because the
variability of fragment sizes within a group is likely large so average
is not telling much. We just need a group with large enough average
fragment size so that we have high probability of finding large enough
free extent and we don't want average fragment size to be too big so
that we are likely to find free extent only somewhat larger than what we
need.

So instead of maintaing rbtree of groups sorted by fragment size keep
bins (lists) or groups where average fragment size is in the interval
[2^i, 2^(i+1)). This structure requires less updates on block allocation
/ freeing, generally avoids chaotic spreading of allocations into block
groups, and still is able to quickly (even faster that the rbtree)
provide a block group which is likely to have a suitably sized free
space extent.

This patch reduces number of block groups used when untarring archive
with medium sized files (size somewhat above 64k which is default
mballoc limit for avoiding locality group preallocation) to about half
and thus improves write speeds for eMMC flash significantly.

      ext4: use locality group preallocation for small closed files · a9f2a293
      Jan Kara authored 
      Curently we don't use any preallocation when a file is already closed
when allocating blocks (from writeback code when converting delayed
allocation). However for small files, using locality group preallocation
is actually desirable as that is not specific to a particular file.
Rather it is a method to pack small files together to reduce
fragmentation and for that the fact the file is closed is actually even
stronger hint the file would benefit from packing. So change the logic
to allow locality group preallocation in this case.

      ext4: make directory inode spreading reflect flexbg size · 613c5a85
      Jan Kara authored 
      Currently the Orlov inode allocator searches for free inodes for a
directory only in flex block groups with at most inodes_per_group/16
more directory inodes than average per flex block group. However with
growing size of flex block group this becomes unnecessarily strict.
Scale allowed difference from average directory count per flex block
group with flex block group size as we do with other metrics.

      ext4: avoid unnecessary spreading of allocations among groups · 1940265e
      Jan Kara authored 
      mb_set_largest_free_order() updates lists containing groups with largest
chunk of free space of given order. The way it updates it leads to
always moving the group to the tail of the list. Thus allocations
looking for free space of given order effectively end up cycling through
all groups (and due to initialization in last to first order). This
spreads allocations among block groups which reduces performance for
rotating disks or low-end flash media. Change
mb_set_largest_free_order() to only update lists if the order of the
largest free chunk in the group changed.

      ext4: make mballoc try target group first even with mb_optimize_scan · 4fca50d4
      Jan Kara authored 
      One of the side-effects of mb_optimize_scan was that the optimized
functions to select next group to try were called even before we tried
the goal group. As a result we no longer allocate files close to
corresponding inodes as well as we don't try to expand currently
allocated extent in the same group. This results in reaim regression
with workfile.disk workload of upto 8% with many clients on my test
machine:

                     baseline               mb_optimize_scan
Hmean     disk-1       2114.16 (   0.00%)     2099.37 (  -0.70%)

Hmean     disk-321   255844.84 (   0.00%)   245412.84 *  -4.08%*

Also this is causing huge regression (time increased by a factor of 5 or
so) when untarring archive with lots of small files on some eMMC storage
cards.

Fix the problem by making sure we try goal group first.

      Makefile.extrawarn: re-enable -Wformat for clang; take 2 · b0839b28
      Nick Desaulniers authored 
      -Wformat was recently re-enabled for builds with clang, then quickly
re-disabled, due to concerns stemming from the frequency of default
argument promotion related warning instances.

commit 258fafcd ("Makefile.extrawarn: re-enable -Wformat for clang")
commit 21f9c8a1 ("Revert "Makefile.extrawarn: re-enable -Wformat for clang"")

ISO WG14 has ratified N2562 to address default argument promotion
explicitly for printf, as part of the upcoming ISO C2X standard.

The behavior of clang was changed in clang-16 to not warn for the cited
cases in all language modes.

Add a version check, so that users of clang-16 now get the full effect
of -Wformat. For older clang versions, re-enable flags under the
-Wformat group that way users still get some useful checks related to
format strings, without noisy default argument promotion warnings. I
intentionally omitted -Wformat-y2k and -Wformat-security from being
re-enabled, which are also part of -Wformat in clang-16.

      Pull gpio fixes from Bartosz Golaszewski:
 "A a set of fixes from the GPIO subsystem.

  Most are small driver fixes except the realtek-otto driver patch which
  is pretty big but addresses a significant flaw that can cause the CPU
  to stay infinitely busy on uncleared ISR on some platforms.

  Summary:
   - MAINTAINERS update
   - fix resource leaks in gpio-mockup and gpio-pxa
   - add missing locking in gpio-pca953x
   - use 32-bit I/O in gpio-realtek-otto
   - make irq_chip structures immutable in four more drivers"
