v2: Add the xfs_buf_lock to xfs_quiesce_attr(). Add explaination why xfs_buf_lock() is used to wait for write. xfs_wait_buftarg() does not wait for the completion of the write of the uncached superblock. This write can race with the shutdown of the log and causes a panic if the write does not win the race. During the log write, xfsaild_push() will lock the buffer and set the XBF_ASYNC flag. Because the XBF_FLAG is set, complete() is not performed on the buffer's iowait entry, we cannot call xfs_buf_iowait() to wait for the write to complete. The buffer's lock is held until the write is complete, so we can block on a xfs_buf_lock() request to be notified that the write is complete.

xfsaild idle mode logic currently leads to a couple hangs: 1.) If xfsaild is rescheduled in during an incremental scan (i.e., tout != 0) and the target has been updated since the previous run, we can hit the new target and go into idle mode with a still populated ail. 2.) A wake up is only issued when the target is pushed forward. The wake up can race with xfsaild if it is currently in the process of entering idle mode, causing future wake up events to be lost. These hangs have been reproduced and verified as fixed by running xfstests 273 in a loop on a slightly modified upstream kernel. The kernel is modified to re-enable idle mode as previously implemented (when count == 0) and with a revert of commit 670ce93f, which includes performance improvements that make this harder to reproduce. The solution, the algorithm for which has been outlined by Dave Chinner, is to modify xfsaild to enter idle mode only when the ail is empty and the push target has not been moved forward since the last push.

An inode that enters xfs_inactive has been removed from all global lists but the inode hash, and can't be recycled in xfs_iget before it has been marked reclaimable. Thus taking the iolock in here is not nessecary at all, and given the amount of lockdep false positives it has triggered already I'd rather remove the locking. The only change outside of xfs_inactive is relaxing an assert in xfs_itruncate_extents.

If the b_iodone handler is run in calling context in xfs_buf_iorequest we can run into a recursion where xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks keeps calling back into xfs_buf_iorequest because an I/O error happened, which keeps calling back into xfs_buf_iorequest. This chain will usually not take long because the filesystem gets shut down because of log I/O errors, but even over a short time it can cause stack overflows if run on the same context. As a short term workaround make sure we always call the iodone handler in workqueue context.

discontigous buffer in separate buffer format structures. This means log recovery will recover all the changes on a per segment basis without requiring any knowledge of the fact that it was logged from a compound buffer. To do this, we need to be able to determine what buffer segment any given offset into the compound buffer sits over. This enables us to translate the dirty bitmap in the number of separate buffer format structures required. We also need to be able to determine the number of bitmap elements that a given buffer segment has, as this determines the size of the buffer format structure. Hence we need to be able to determine the both the start offset into the buffer and the length of a given segment to be able to calculate this. With this information, we can preallocate, build and format the correct log vector array for each segment in a compound buffer to appear exactly the same as individually logged buffers in the log.

To support discontiguous buffers in the buffer cache, we need to separate the cache index variables from the I/O map. While this is currently a 1:1 mapping, discontiguous buffer support will break this relationship. However, for caching purposes, we can still treat them the same as a contiguous buffer - the block number of the first block and the length of the buffer - as that is still a unique representation. Also, the only way we will ever access the discontiguous regions of buffers is via bulding the complete buffer in the first place, so using the initial block number and entire buffer length is a sane way to index the buffers. Add a block mapping vector construct to the xfs_buf and use it in the places where we are doing IO instead of the current b_bn/b_length variables.

The struct xfs_buf_log_format wants to think the dirty bitmap is variable sized. In fact, it is variable size on disk simply due to the way we map it from the in-memory structure, but we still just use a fixed size memory allocation for the in-memory structure. Hence it makes no sense to set the function up as a variable sized structure when we already know it's maximum size, and we always allocate it as such. Simplify the structure by making the dirty bitmap a fixed sized array and just using the size of the structure for the allocation size. This will make it much simpler to allocate and manipulate an array of format structures for discontiguous buffer support. The previous struct xfs_buf_log_item size according to /proc/slabinfo was 224 bytes. pahole doesn't give the same size because of the variable size definition. With this modification, pahole reports the same as /proc/slabinfo: /* size: 224, cachelines: 4, members: 6 */ Because the xfs_buf_log_item size is now determined by the maximum supported block size we introduce a dependency on xfs_alloc_btree.h. Avoid this dependency by moving the idefines for the maximum block sizes supported to xfs_types.h with all the other max/min type defines to avoid any new dependencies.

Commit de1cbee4 which removed b_file_offset in favor of b_bn introduced a bug causing xfs_buf_allocate_memory() to overestimate the number of necessary pages. The problem is that xfs_buf_alloc() sets b_bn to -1 and thus effectively every buffer is straddling a page boundary which causes xfs_buf_allocate_memory() to allocate two pages and use vmalloc() for access which is unnecessary. Dave says xfs_buf_alloc() doesn't need to set b_bn to -1 anymore since the buffer is inserted into the cache only after being fully initialized now. So just make xfs_buf_alloc() fill in proper block number from the beginning.

An inode in the AIL can be flush locked and marked stale if a cluster free transaction occurs at the right time. The inode item is then marked as flushing, which causes xfsaild to spin and leaves the filesystem stalled. This is reproduced by running xfstests 273 in a loop for an extended period of time. Check for stale inodes before the flush lock. This marks the inode as pinned, leads to a log flush and allows the filesystem to proceed.
