      xfs: remove need_start_rec parameter from xlog_write() · 3468bb1c
      Dave Chinner authored
      The CIL push is the only call to xlog_write that sets this variable
      to true. The other callers don't need a start rec, and they tell
      xlog_write what to do by passing the type of ophdr they need written
      in the flags field. The need_start_rec parameter essentially tells
      xlog_write to to write an extra ophdr with a XLOG_START_TRANS type,
      so get rid of the variable to do this and pass XLOG_START_TRANS as
      the flag value into xlog_write() from the CIL push.

      xfs: CIL checkpoint flushes caches unconditionally · bad77c37
      Dave Chinner authored
      Currently every journal IO is issued as REQ_PREFLUSH | REQ_FUA to
      guarantee the ordering requirements the journal has w.r.t. metadata
      writeback. THe two ordering constraints are:
      
      1. we cannot overwrite metadata in the journal until we guarantee
      that the dirty metadata has been written back in place and is
      stable.
      
      2. we cannot write back dirty metadata until it has been written to
      the journal and guaranteed to be stable (and hence recoverable) in
      the journal.
      
      These rules apply to the atomic transactions recorded in the
      journal, not to the journal IO itself. Hence we need to ensure
      metadata is stable before we start writing a new transaction to the
      journal (guarantee #1), and we need to ensure the entire transaction
      is stable in the journal before we start metadata writeback
      (guarantee #2).
      
      The ordering guarantees of #1 are currently provided by REQ_PREFLUSH
      being added to every iclog IO. This causes the journal IO to issue a
      cache flush and wait for it to complete before issuing the write IO
      to the journal. Hence all completed metadata IO is guaranteed to be
      stable before the journal overwrites the old metadata.
      
      However, for long running CIL checkpoints that might do a thousand
      journal IOs, we don't need every single one of these iclog IOs to
      issue a cache flush - the cache flush done before the first iclog is
      submitted is sufficient to cover the entire range in the log that
      the checkpoint will overwrite because the CIL space reservation
      guarantees the tail of the log (completed metadata) is already
      beyond the range of the checkpoint write.
      
      Hence we only need a full cache flush between closing off the CIL
      checkpoint context (i.e. when the push switches it out) and issuing
      the first journal IO. Rather than plumbing this through to the
      journal IO, we can start this cache flush the moment the CIL context
      is owned exclusively by the push worker. The cache flush can be in
      progress while we process the CIL ready for writing, hence
      reducing the latency of the initial iclog write. This is especially
      true for large checkpoints, where we might have to process hundreds
      of thousands of log vectors before we issue the first iclog write.
      In these cases, it is likely the cache flush has already been
      completed by the time we have built the CIL log vector chain.

      xfs: async blkdev cache flush · 0431d926
      Dave Chinner authored
      The new checkpoint cache flush mechanism requires us to issue an
      unconditional cache flush before we start a new checkpoint. We don't
      want to block for this if we can help it, and we have a fair chunk
      of CPU work to do between starting the checkpoint and issuing the
      first journal IO.
      
      Hence it makes sense to amortise the latency cost of the cache flush
      by issuing it asynchronously and then waiting for it only when we
      need to issue the first IO in the transaction.
      
      To do this, we need async cache flush primitives to submit the cache
      flush bio and to wait on it. The block layer has no such primitives
      for filesystems, so roll our own for the moment.

      xfs: rename struct xfs_eofblocks
      
      In the old days, struct xfs_eofblocks was an optional parameter to the

      a scan to files fitting specific criteria.  Nowadays it is used for all

      When we decide to mark an inode sick, clear the DONTCACHE flag so that
      the incore inode will be kept around until memory pressure forces it out
      of memory.  This increases the chances that the sick status will be
      caught by someone compiling a health report later on.

      xfs: only reset incore inode health state flags when reclaiming an inode · 255794c7
      Darrick J. Wong authored
      While running some fuzz tests on inode metadata, I noticed that the
      filesystem health report (as provided by xfs_spaceman) failed to report
      the file corruption even when spaceman was run immediately after running
      xfs_scrub to detect the corruption.  That isn't the intended behavior;
      one ought to be able to run scrub to detect errors in the ondisk
      metadata and be able to access to those reports for some time after the
      scrub.
      
      After running the same sequence through an instrumented kernel, I
      discovered the reason why -- scrub igets the file, scans it, marks it
      sick, and ireleases the inode.  When the VFS lets go of the incore
      inode, it moves to RECLAIMABLE state.  If spaceman igets the incore
      inode before it moves to RECLAIM state, iget reinitializes the VFS
      state, clears the sick and checked masks, and hands back the inode.  At
      this point, the caller has the exact same incore inode, but with all the
      health state erased.
      
      In other words, we're erasing the incore inode's health state flags when
      we've decided NOT to sever the link between the incore inode and the
      ondisk inode.  This is wrong, so we need to remove the lines that zero
      the fields from xfs_iget_cache_hit.
      
      As a precaution, we add the same lines into xfs_reclaim_inode just after
      we sever the link between incore and ondisk inode.  Strictly speaking
      this isn't necessary because once an inode has gone through reclaim it
      must go through xfs_inode_alloc (which also zeroes the state) and
      xfs_iget is careful to check for mismatches between the inode it pulls
      out of the radix tree and the one it wants.

      xfs: clean up incore inode walk functions
      
      This ambitious series aims to cleans up redundant inode walk code in
      xfs_icache.c, hide implementation details of the quotaoff dquot release
      code, and eliminates indirect function calls from incore inode walks.
      
      The first thing it does is to move all the code that quotaoff calls to
      release dquots from all incore inodes into xfs_icache.c.  Next, it
      separates the goal of an inode walk from the actual radix tree tags that
      may or may not be involved and drops the kludgy XFS_ICI_NO_TAG thing.
      Finally, we split the speculative preallocation (blockgc) and quotaoff
      dquot release code paths into separate functions so that we can keep the
      implementations cohesive.
      
      Christoph suggested last cycle that we 'simply' change quotaoff not to
      allow deactivating quota entirely, but as these cleanups are to enable
      one major change in behavior (deferred inode inactivation) I do not want
      to add a second behavior change (quotaoff) as a dependency.
      
      To be blunt: Additional cleanups are not in scope for this series.
      
      Next, I made two observations about incore inode radix tree walks --
      since there's a 1:1 mapping between the walk goal and the per-inode
      processing function passed in, we can use the goal to make a direct call
      to the processing function.  Furthermore, the only caller to supply a
      nonzero iter_flags argument is quotaoff, and there's only one INEW flag.
      
      From that observation, I concluded that it's quite possible to remove
      two parameters from the xfs_inode_walk* function signatures -- the
      iter_flags, and the execute function pointer.  The middle of the series
      moves the INEW functionality into the one piece (quotaoff) that wants
      it, and removes the indirect calls.
      
      The final observation is that the inode reclaim walk loop is now almost
      the same as xfs_inode_walk, so it's silly to maintain two copies.  Merge
      the reclaim loop code into xfs_inode_walk.
      
      Lastly, refactor the per-ag radix tagging functions since there's
      duplicated code that can be consolidated.
      
      This series is a prerequisite for the next two patchsets, since deferred
      inode inactivation will add another inode radix tree tag and iterator
      function to xfs_inode_walk.
      
      v2: walk the vfs inode list when running quotaoff instead of the radix
          tree, then rework the (now completely internal) inode walk function
          to take the tag as the main parameter.
      v3: merge the reclaim loop into xfs_inode_walk, then consolidate the
          radix tree tagging functions
      v4: rebase to 5.13-rc4
      v5: combine with the quotaoff patchset, reorder functions to minimize
          forward declarations, split inode walk goals from radix tree tags
          to reduce conceptual confusion
      v6: start moving the inode cache code towards the xfs_icwalk prefix

      Which is fallout from agno -> perag conversions that were done in

      in xfs_difree_finobt() now, and it only uses the agi to get the
      current free inode count. We hold that in the perag structure, so
      there's not need to directly reference the raw AGI to get this
      information.
      
      The btree cursor being passed to xfs_check_agi_freecount() has a
      reference to the perag being operated on, so use that directly in
      xfs_check_agi_freecount() rather than passing an AGI.

      work to do actually use perags in all the places we need to.
      
      There's a lot of code that iterates ag numbers and then
      looks up perags from that, often multiple times for the same perag
      in the one operation. If we want to use reference counted perags for
      access control, then we need to convert all these uses to perag
      iterators, not agno iterators.
      
      [Patches 1-4]
      
      The first step of this is consolidating all the perag management -
      init, free, get, put, etc into a common location. THis is spread all
      over the place right now, so move it all into libxfs/xfs_ag.[ch].
      This does expose kernel only bits of the perag to libxfs and hence
      userspace, so the structures and code is rearranged to minimise the
      number of ifdefs that need to be added to the userspace codebase.
      The perag iterator in xfs_icache.c is promoted to a first class API
      and expanded to the needs of the code as required.
      
      [Patches 5-10]
      
      These are the first basic perag iterator conversions and changes to
      pass the perag down the stack from those iterators where
      appropriate. A lot of this is obvious, simple changes, though in
      some places we stop passing the perag down the stack because the
      code enters into an as yet unconverted subsystem that still uses raw
      AGs.
      
      [Patches 11-16]
      
      These replace the agno passed in the btree cursor for per-ag btree
      operations with a perag that is passed to the cursor init function.
      The cursor takes it's own reference to the perag, and the reference
      is dropped when the cursor is deleted. Hence we get reference
      coverage for the entire time the cursor is active, even if the code
      that initialised the cursor drops it's reference before the cursor
      or any of it's children (duplicates) have been deleted.
      
      The first patch adds the perag infrastructure for the cursor, the
      next four patches convert a btree cursor at a time, and the last
      removes the agno from the cursor once it is unused.
      
      [Patches 17-21]
      
      These patches are a demonstration of the simplifications and
      cleanups that come from plumbing the perag through interfaces that
      select and then operate on a specific AG. In this case the inode
      allocation algorithm does up to three walks across all AGs before it
      either allocates an inode or fails. Two of these walks are purely
      just to select the AG, and even then it doesn't guarantee inode
      allocation success so there's a third walk if the selected AG
      allocation fails.
      
      These patches collapse the selection and allocation into a single
      loop, simplifies the error handling because xfs_dir_ialloc() always
      returns ENOSPC if no AG was selected for inode allocation or we fail
      to allocate an inode in any AG, gets rid of xfs_dir_ialloc()
      wrapper, converts inode allocation to run entirely from a single
      perag instance, and then factors xfs_dialloc() into a much, much
      simpler loop which is easy to understand.
      
      Hence we end up with the same inode allocation logic, but it only
      needs two complete iterations at worst, makes AG selection and
      allocation atomic w.r.t. shrink and chops out out over 100 lines of
      code from this hot code path.
      
      [Patch 22]
      
      Converts the unlink path to pass perags through it.
      
      There's more conversion work to be done, but this patchset gets
      through a large chunk of it in one hit. Most of the iterators are
      converted, so once this is solidified we can move on to converting
      these to active references for being able to free perags while the
      fs is still active.

      xfs: buffer cache bulk page allocation
      
      This patchset makes use of the new bulk page allocation interface to
      reduce the overhead of allocating large numbers of pages in a
      loop.
      
      The first two patches are refactoring buffer memory allocation and
      converting the uncached buffer path to use the same page allocation
      path, followed by converting the page allocation path to use bulk
      allocation.
      
      The rest of the patches are then consolidation of the page
      allocation and freeing code to simplify the code and remove a chunk
      of unnecessary abstraction. This is largely based on a series of
      changes made by Christoph Hellwig.
