When adjusting the enospc rules for relocation I ran into a deadlock because we
were relocating the only system chunk and that forced us to try and allocate a
new system chunk while holding locks in the chunk tree, which caused us to
deadlock. To fix this I've moved all of the dev extent addition and chunk
addition out to the delayed chunk completion stuff. We still keep the in-memory
stuff which makes sure everything is consistent.
One change I had to make was to search the commit root of the device tree to
find a free dev extent, and hold onto any chunk em's that we allocated in that
transaction so we do not allocate the same dev extent twice. This has the side
effect of fixing a bug with balance that has been there ever since balance
existed. Basically you can free a block group and it's dev extent and then
immediately allocate that dev extent for a new block group and write stuff to
that dev extent, all within the same transaction. So if you happen to crash
during a balance you could come back to a completely broken file system. This
patch should keep these sort of things from happening in the future since we
won't be able to allocate free'd dev extents until after the transaction
commits. This has passed all of the xfstests and my super annoying stress test
followed by a balance. Thanks,

Dave has this fs_mark script that can make btrfs abort with sufficient amount of
ram. This is because with more ram we can keep more dirty metadata in cache
which in a round about way makes for many more pending delayed refs. What
happens is we end up not throttling the transaction enough so when we go to
commit the transaction when we've completely filled the file system we'll
abort() because we use all of the space in the global reserve and we still have
delayed refs to run. To fix this we need to make the delayed ref flushing and
the transaction throttling dependant upon the number of delayed refs that we
have instead of how much reserved space is left in the global reserve. With
this patch we not only stop aborting transactions but we also get a smoother run
speed with fs_mark and it makes us about 10% faster. Thanks,

I hit a hang when run_delayed_refs returned an error in the beginning of
btrfs_commit_transaction. If we decide we need to commit the transaction in
btrfs_end_transaction we'll set BLOCKED and start to commit, but if we get an
error this early on we'll just exit without committing. This is fine, except
that anybody else who tried to start a transaction will sit in
wait_current_trans() since we're set to BLOCKED and we never set it to something
else and woke people up. To fix this we want to check for trans->aborted
everywhere we wait for the transaction state to change, and make
btrfs_abort_transaction() wake up any waiters there may be. All the callers
will notice that the transaction has aborted and exit out properly. Thanks,

Before applying this patch, we flushed the log tree of the fs/file

especially on the hard disk. This patch improved this problem by wrapping
the above two flushes by the same blk_plug.
By test, the performance of the sync write went up ~60%(2.9MB/s -> 4.6MB/s)
on my scsi disk whose disk buffer was enabled.

We used 3 variants to track the state of the transaction, it was complex
and wasted the memory space. Besides that, it was hard to understand that
which types of the transaction handles should be blocked in each transaction
state, so the developers often made mistakes.
This patch improved the above problem. In this patch, we define 6 states
for the transaction,
enum btrfs_trans_state {
TRANS_STATE_RUNNING = 0,
TRANS_STATE_BLOCKED = 1,
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START = 2,
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING = 3,
TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED = 4,
TRANS_STATE_COMPLETED = 5,
TRANS_STATE_MAX = 6,
}
and just use 1 variant to track those state.
In order to make the blocked handle types for each state more clear,
we introduce a array:
unsigned int btrfs_blocked_trans_types[TRANS_STATE_MAX] = {
[TRANS_STATE_RUNNING] = 0U,
[TRANS_STATE_BLOCKED] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START),
[TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START |
__TRANS_ATTACH),
[TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START |
__TRANS_ATTACH |
__TRANS_JOIN),
[TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START |
__TRANS_ATTACH |
__TRANS_JOIN |
__TRANS_JOIN_NOLOCK),
[TRANS_STATE_COMPLETED] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START |
__TRANS_ATTACH |
__TRANS_JOIN |
__TRANS_JOIN_NOLOCK),
}
it is very intuitionistic.
Besides that, because we remove ->in_commit in transaction structure, so
the lock ->commit_lock which was used to protect it is unnecessary, remove
->commit_lock.

frequently, but it is unnecessary because:
- It made the transaction commit spend more time, and delayed the

snapshot creation, btrfs doesn't commit the transaction on its

We used ->num_joined track if there were some writers which join the current

as flush the ordered operations. But it is unnecessary because we will do it

Besides that, tracking ->num_joined would make the committer drop into the while
loop when there are lots of internal writers(TRANS_JOIN).

btrfs_commit_transaction has the following loop before we commit the
transaction.
do {
// attempt to do some useful stuff and/or sleep
} while (atomic_read(&cur_trans->num_writers) > 1 ||
(should_grow && cur_trans->num_joined != joined));
This is used to prevent from the TRANS_START to get in the way of a
committing transaction. But it does not prevent from TRANS_JOIN, that
is we would do this loop for a long time if some writers JOIN the
current transaction endlessly.
Because we need join the current transaction to do some useful stuff,
we can not block TRANS_JOIN here. So we introduce a external writer
counter, which is used to count the TRANS_USERSPACE/TRANS_START writers.
If the external writer counter is zero, we can break the above loop.
In order to make the code more clear, we don't use enum variant
to define the type of the transaction handle, use bitmask instead.

Sequence numbers for delayed refs have been introduced in the first version
of the qgroup patch set. To solve the problem of find_all_roots on a busy
file system, the tree mod log was introduced. The sequence numbers for that
were simply shared between those two users.
However, at one point in qgroup's quota accounting, there's a statement
accessing the previous sequence number, that's still just doing (seq - 1)
just as it would have to in the very first version.
To satisfy that requirement, this patch makes the sequence number counter 64
bit and splits it into a major part (used for qgroup sequence number
counting) and a minor part (incremented for each tree modification in the
log). This enables us to go exactly one major step backwards, as required
for qgroups, while still incrementing the sequence counter for tree mod log
insertions to keep track of their order. Keeping them in a single variable
means there's no need to change all the code dealing with comparisons of two
sequence numbers.
The sequence number is reset to 0 on commit (not new in this patch), which
ensures we won't overflow the two 32 bit counters.
Without this fix, the qgroup tracking can occasionally go wrong and WARN_ONs
from the tree mod log code may happen.

For created snapshots, the full root_item is copied from the source
root and afterwards selectively modified. The current code forgets
to clear the field received_uuid. The only problem is that it is
confusing when you look at it with 'btrfs subv list', since for
writable snapshots, the contents of the snapshot can be completely
unrelated to the previously received snapshot.
The receiver ignores such snapshots anyway because he also checks
the field stransid in the root_item and that value used to be reset
to zero for all created snapshots.
This commit changes two things:
- clear the received_uuid field for new writable snapshots.
- don't clear the send/receive related information like the stransid
for read-only snapshots (which makes them useable as a parent for
the automatic selection of parents in the receive code).

Testing my enospc log code I managed to abort a transaction during mount, which
put me into an infinite loop. This is because of two things, first we don't
reset trans_no_join if we abort during transaction commit, which will force
anybody trying to start a transaction to just loop endlessly waiting for it to
be set to 0. But this is still just a symptom, the second issue is we don't set
the fs state to error during errors on mount. This is because we don't want to
do the flip read only thing during mount, but we still really want to set the fs
state to an error to keep us from even getting to the trans_no_join check. So
fix both of these things, make sure to reset trans_no_join if we abort during a
commit, and make sure we set the fs state to error no matter if we're mounting
or not. This should keep us from getting into this infinite loop again.

With more than one btrfs volume mounted, it can be very difficult to find
out which volume is hitting an error. btrfs_error() will print this, but
it is currently rigged as more of a fatal error handler, while many of
the printk()s are currently for debugging and yet-unhandled cases.
This patch just changes the functions where the device information is
already available. Some cases remain where the root or fs_info is not
passed to the function emitting the error.
This may introduce some confusion with volumes backed by multiple devices
emitting errors referring to the primary device in the set instead of the
one on which the error occurred.
Use btrfs_printk(fs_info, format, ...) rather than writing the device
string every time, and introduce macro wrappers ala XFS for brevity.
Since the function already cannot be used for continuations, print a
newline as part of the btrfs_printk() message rather than at each caller.

There are several bugs at error path of create_snapshot() when the
transaction commitment failed.
- access the freed transaction handler. At the end of the
transaction commitment, the transaction handler was freed, so we
should not access it after the transaction commitment.
- we were not aware of the error which happened during the snapshot
creation if we submitted a async transaction commitment.
- pending snapshot access vs pending snapshot free. when something
wrong happened after we submitted a async transaction commitment,
the transaction committer would cleanup the pending snapshots and
free them. But the snapshot creators were not aware of it, they
would access the freed pending snapshots.
This patch fixes the above problems by:
- remove the dangerous code that accessed the freed handler
- assign ->error if the error happens during the snapshot creation
- the transaction committer doesn't free the pending snapshots,
just assigns the error number and evicts them before we unblock
the transaction.

In some cases, we need commit the current transaction, but don't want
to start a new one if there is no running transaction, so we introduce
the function - btrfs_attach_transaction(), which can catch the current
transaction, and return -ENOENT if there is no running transaction.
But no running transaction doesn't mean the current transction completely,
because we removed the running transaction before it completes. In some
cases, it doesn't matter. But in some special cases, such as freeze fs, we
hope the transaction is fully on disk, it will introduce some bugs, for
example, we may feeze the fs and dump the data in the disk, if the transction
doesn't complete, we would dump inconsistent data. So we need fix the above
problem for those cases.
We fixes this problem by introducing a function:
btrfs_attach_transaction_barrier()
if we hope all the transaction is fully on the disk, even they are not

Miao made the ordered operations stuff run async, which introduced a
deadlock where we could get somebody (sync) racing in and committing the
transaction while a commit was already happening. The new committer would
try and flush ordered operations which would hang waiting for the commit to
finish because it is done asynchronously and no longer inherits the callers
trans handle. To fix this we need to make the ordered operations list a per
transaction list. We can get new inodes added to the ordered operation list
by truncating them and then having another process writing to them, so this
makes it so that anybody trying to add an ordered operation _must_ start a
transaction in order to add itself to the list, which will keep new inodes
from getting added to the ordered operations list after we start committing.
This should fix the deadlock and also keeps us from doing a lot more work
than we need to during commit. Thanks,

The defrag operation can take very long, we want to have a way how to
cancel it. The code checks for a pending signal at safe points in the
defrag loops and returns EAGAIN. This means a user can press ^C after
running 'btrfs fi defrag', woks for both defrag modes, files and root.
Returning from the command was instant in my light tests, but may take
longer depending on the aging factor of the filesystem.

The entry point at the defrag ioctl always sets "cache only" to 0;
the codepaths haven't run for a long time as far as I can
tell. Chris says they're dead code, so remove them.

I hit a deadlock where transaction commit was waiting on num_writers to be
0. This happened because somebody came into btrfs_commit_transaction and
noticed we had aborted and it went to cleanup_transaction. This shouldn't
happen because cleanup_transaction is really to fixup a bad commit, it
doesn't do the normal trans handle cleanup things. So if we have an error
just do the normal btrfs_end_transaction dance and return. Once we are in
the actual commit path we can use cleanup_transaction and be good to go.

There is no lock to protect fs_info->fs_state, it will introduce
some problems, such as the value may be covered by the other task
when several tasks modify it. For example:
Task0 - CPU0 Task1 - CPU1
mov %fs_state rax
or $0x1 rax
mov %fs_state rax
or $0x2 rax
mov rax %fs_state
mov rax %fs_state
The expected value is 3, but in fact, it is 2.
Though this problem doesn't happen now (because there is only one
flag currently), the code is error prone, if we add other flags,
the above problem will happen to a certainty.
Now we use bit operation for it to fix the above problem.
In this way, we can make the code more robust and be easy to
add new flags.

We forget to check the return value of btrfs_run_ordered_operations() when
flushing all the pending stuffs, fix it.

If we start running low on metadata space we will try to allocate a chunk,
which could then try to allocate a chunk to add the device entry. The thing
is we allocate a chunk before we try really hard to make the allocation, so
we should be able to find space for the device entry. Add a flag to the
trans handle so we know we're currently allocating a chunk so we can just
bail out if we try to allocate another chunk. Thanks,

Since we do not want to delay the async transaction commit, we should
use common work, not delayed work.

We clear the transaction object and the trans handle when they are about to be
freed, it is unnecessary, cleanup it.
