This reverts commit 7a249cf8. 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...

Simplify the confusing xfs_dir2_leaf structure. It is supposed to describe an XFS dir2 leaf format btree block, but due to the variable sized nature of almost all elements in it it can't actuall do anything close to that job. Remove the members that are after the first variable sized array, given that they could only be used for sizeof expressions that can as well just use the underlying types directly, and make the ents array a real C99 variable sized array. Also factor out the xfs_dir2_leaf_size, to make the sizing of a leaf entry which already was convoluted somewhat readable after using the longer type names in the sizeof expressions.

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>

Split the guts of xfs_itruncate_finish that loop over the existing extents and calls xfs_bunmapi on them into a new helper, xfs_itruncate_externs. Make xfs_attr_inactive call it directly instead of xfs_itruncate_finish, which allows to simplify the latter a lot, by only letting it deal with the data fork. As a result xfs_itruncate_finish is renamed to xfs_itruncate_data to make its use case more obvious. 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. I can't actually see why the xfs_attr_inactive needs to set the transaction sync, but let's keep this patch simple and without changes in behaviour. Also avoid passing a useless argument to xfs_isize_check, and make it private to xfs_inode.c.

Instead of using the complicated checks left over from IRIX where we can to truncate the pagecache just call xfs_tosspages (aka truncate_inode_pages) directly as we want to get rid of all data after i_size, and truncate_inode_pages handles incorrect alignments and too large offsets just fine.

When inodes are marked stale in a transaction, they are treated specially when the inode log item is being inserted into the AIL. It tries to avoid moving the log item forward in the AIL due to a race condition with the writing the underlying buffer back to disk. The was "fixed" in commit de25c181 ("xfs: avoid moving stale inodes in the AIL"). To avoid moving the item forward, we return a LSN smaller than the commit_lsn of the completing transaction, thereby trying to trick the commit code into not moving the inode forward at all. I'm not sure this ever worked as intended - it assumes the inode is already in the AIL, but I don't think the returned LSN would have been small enough to prevent moving the inode. It appears that the reason it worked is that the lower LSN of the inodes meant they were inserted into the AIL and flushed before the inode buffer (which was moved to the commit_lsn of the transaction). The big problem is that with delayed logging, the returning of the different LSN means insertion takes the slow, non-bulk path. Worse yet is that insertion is to a position -before- the commit_lsn so it is doing a AIL traversal on every insertion, and has to walk over all the items that have already been inserted into the AIL. It's expensive. To compound the matter further, with delayed logging inodes are likely to go from clean to stale in a single checkpoint, which means they aren't even in the AIL at all when we come across them at AIL insertion time. Hence these were all getting inserted into the AIL when they simply do not need to be as inodes marked XFS_ISTALE are never written back. Transactional/recovery integrity is maintained in this case by the other items in the unlink transaction that were modified (e.g. the AGI btree blocks) and committed in the same checkpoint. So to fix this, simply unpin the stale inodes directly in xfs_inode_item_committed() and return -1 to indicate that the AIL insertion code does not need to do any further processing of these inodes.

If the attribute fork on an inode is in btree format and has multiple levels (i.e node format rather than leaf format), then a lookup failure will trigger an assert failure in xfs_da_path_shift if the flag XFS_DA_OP_OKNOENT is not set. This flag is used to indicate to the directory btree code that not finding an entry is not a fatal error. In the case of doing a lookup for a directory name removal, this is valid as a user cannot insert an arbitrary name to remove from the directory btree. However, in the case of the attribute tree, a user has direct control over the attribute name and can ask for any random name to be removed without any validation. In this case, fsstress is asking for a non-existent user.selinux attribute to be removed, and that is causing xfs_da_path_shift() to fall off the bottom of the tree where it asserts that a lookup failure is allowed. Because the flag is not set, we die a horrible death on a debug enable kernel. Prevent this assert from firing on attribute removes by adding the op_flag XFS_DA_OP_OKNOENT to atribute removal operations. Discovered when testing on a SELinux enabled system by fsstress in test 070 by trying to remove a non-existent user.selinux attribute.

When an inode is truncated down, speculative preallocation is removed from the inode. This should also reset the state bits for controlling whether preallocation is subsequently removed when the file is next closed. The flag is not being cleared, so repeated operations on a file that first involve a truncate (e.g. multiple repeated dd invocations on a file) give different file layouts for the second and subsequent invocations. Fix this by clearing the XFS_IDIRTY_RELEASE state bit when the XFS_ITRUNCATED bit is detected in xfs_release() and hence ensure that speculative delalloc is removed on files that have been truncated down.

XFS inodes has several per-lifetime state fields that determine the behaviour of the inode. These state fields are not all reset when an inode is reused from the reclaimable state. This can lead to unexpected behaviour of the new inode such as speculative preallocation not being truncated away in the expected manner for local files until the inode is subsequently truncated, freed or cycles out of the cache. It can also lead to an inode being considered to be a filestream inode or having been truncated when that is not the case. Rework the reinitialisation of the inode when it is recycled to ensure that it is pristine before it is reused. While there, also fix the resetting of state flags in the recycling error paths so the inode does not become unreclaimable.

There's no reason not to support cache flushing on external log devices. The only thing this really requires is flushing the data device first both in fsync and log commits. A side effect is that we also have to remove the barrier write test during mount, which has been superflous since the new FLUSH+FUA code anyway. Also use the chance to flush the RT subvolume write cache before the fsync commit, which is required for correct semantics.
