Ryusuke Konishi 050b4142c9 nilfs2: apply readahead for recovery on mount
This inserts readahead in the recovery code.  The readahead request is
issued per segment while searching the latest super root block.

This will shorten mount time after unclean unmount.  A measurement
shows the recovery time was reduced by more than 60 percent:

 e.g. real  0m11.586s -> 0m3.918s  (x 2.96)

Ryusuke Konishi db38d5ad32 nilfs2: add cache framework for persistent object allocator
This adds setup and cleanup routines of the persistent object
allocator cache.

According to ftrace analyses, accessing buffers of the DAT file
suffers indispensable overhead many times.  To mitigate the overhead,
This introduce cache framework for the persistent object allocator
(palloc) which the DAT file and ifile are using.

struct nilfs_palloc_cache represents the cache object per metadata
file using palloc.

The cache is initialized through nilfs_palloc_setup_cache() and
destroyed by nilfs_palloc_destroy_cache(); callers of the former
function will be added to individual allocators of DAT and ifile on
successive patches.

nilfs_palloc_destroy_cache() will be called from nilfs_mdt_destroy()
if the cache is attached to a metadata file.  A companion function
nilfs_palloc_clear_cache() is provided to allow releasing buffer head
references independently with the cleanup task.  This adjunctive
function will be used before invalidating pages of metadata file with
the cache.

Ryusuke Konishi 9cb4e0d2b9 nilfs2: move out mark_inode_dirty calls from bmap routines
Previously, nilfs_bmap_add_blocks() and nilfs_bmap_sub_blocks() called
mark_inode_dirty() after they changed the number of data blocks.

This moves these calls outside bmap outermost functions like
nilfs_bmap_insert() or nilfs_bmap_truncate().

This will mitigate overhead for truncate or delete operation since
they repeatedly remove set of blocks.  Nearly 10 percent improvement
was observed for removal of a large file:

 # dd if=/dev/zero of=/test/aaa bs=1M count=512
 # time rm /test/aaa

  real  2.968s -> 2.705s

lock_buffer() and unlock_buffer() uses in btree.c are eliminable

which never returns an on-the-fly buffer.

Although nilfs_clear_dirty_page() and nilfs_copy_back_pages() in

safe because these operations are protected by a log writer lock or
the metadata file semaphore of DAT.

Ryusuke Konishi 5399dd1fc8 nilfs2: fix kernel oops in error case of nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks
This fixes a kernel oops reported by Markus Trippelsdorf in the email
titled "[NILFS users] kernel Oops while running nilfs_cleanerd".

The oops was caused by a bug of error path in
nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() function, which was inlined in
nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments().

nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks checks duplication of blocks which will be
moved in garbage collection.  But, the check should have be done
within nilfs_ioctl_move_inode_block() to prevent list corruption among
buffers storing the target blocks.

To fix the kernel oops, this moves forward the duplication check
before the list insertion.

I also tested this for stable trees [2.6.30, 2.6.31].

Ryusuke Konishi 1f28fcd925 nilfs2: fix missing zero-fill initialization of btree node cache
This will fix file system corruption which infrequently happens after
mount.  The problem was reported from users with the title "[NILFS
users] Fail to mount NILFS." (Message-ID:
<200908211918.34720.yuri@itinteg.net>), and so forth.  I've also
experienced the corruption multiple times on kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31.

The problem turned out to be caused due to discordance between
mapping->nrpages of a btree node cache and the actual number of pages
hung on the cache; if the mapping->nrpages becomes zero even as it has
pages, truncate_inode_pages() returns without doing anything.  Usually
this is harmless except it may cause page leak, but garbage collection
fairly infrequently sees a stale page remained in the btree node cache
of DAT (i.e. disk address translation file of nilfs), and induces the
corruption.

I identified a missing initialization in btree node caches was the
root cause.  This corrects the bug.

I've tested this for kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31.

Actually, nilfs is NOT a filesystem came from other operating systems,
but a filesystem created purely for Linux.  Nor is it a flash
filesystem but that for generic block devices.

So, this moves nilfs outside the misc category as I responded in LKML

Ryusuke Konishi 0f3fe33b39 nilfs2: convert nilfs_bmap_lookup to an inline function
The nilfs_bmap_lookup() is now a wrapper function of
nilfs_bmap_lookup_at_level().

This moves the nilfs_bmap_lookup() to a header file converting it to
an inline function and gives an opportunity for optimization.

Ryusuke Konishi 2e0c2c7392 nilfs2: allow btree code to directly call dat operations
The current btree code is written so that btree functions call dat
operations via wrapper functions in bmap.c when they allocate, free,
or modify virtual block addresses.

This abstraction requires additional function calls and causes
frequent call of nilfs_bmap_get_dat() function since it is used in the
every wrapper function.

This removes the wrapper functions and makes them available from
btree.c and direct.c, which will increase the opportunity of
compiler optimization.

Jiro SEKIBA 1cf58fa840 nilfs2: shorten freeze period due to GC in write operation v3
This is a re-revised patch to shorten freeze period.
This version include a fix of the bug Konishi-san mentioned last time.

When GC is runnning, GC moves live block to difference segments.
Copying live blocks into memory is done in a transaction,
however it is not necessarily to be in the transaction.
This patch will get the nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() out from
transaction lock and put it before the transaction.

I ran sysbench fileio test against nilfs partition.
I copied some DVD/CD images and created snapshot to create live blocks
before starting the benchmark.

Followings are summary of rc8 and rc8 w/ the patch of per-request
statistics, which is min/max and avg.  I ran each test three times and
bellow is average of those numers.

According to this benchmark result, average time is slightly degrated.
However, worstcase (max) result is significantly improved.
This can address a few seconds write freeze.

Jiro SEKIBA 1dfa27105a nilfs2: stop using periodic write_super callback
This removes nilfs_write_super and commit super block in nilfs
internal thread, instead of periodic write_super callback.

VFS layer calls ->write_super callback periodically.  However,
it looks like that calling back is ommited when disk I/O is busy.
And when cleanerd (nilfs GC) is runnig, disk I/O tend to be busy thus
nilfs superblock is not synchronized as nilfs designed.

To avoid it, syncing superblock by nilfs thread instead of pdflush.

Ryusuke Konishi 1435110467 nilfs2: always lookup disk block address before reading metadata block
The current metadata file code skips disk address lookup for its data
block if the buffer has a mapped flag.

This has a potential risk to cause read request to be performed
against the stale block address that GC moved, and it may lead to meta
data corruption.  The mapped flag is safe if the buffer has an
uptodate flag, otherwise it may prevent necessary update of disk
address in the next read.

This will avoid the potential problem by ensuring disk address lookup
before reading metadata block even for buffers with the mapped flag.

This turns out to be a bug brought by an -rc1 patch ("nilfs2: simplify
remaining sget() use").

In the patch, a new "put resource" function, nilfs_put_sbinfo()
was introduced to delay freeing nilfs_sb_info struct.

But the nilfs_put_sbinfo() mistakenly used atomic_dec_and_test()
function to check the reference count, and it caused the nilfs_sb_info
was freed when user mounted a snapshot twice.

This bug also suggests there was unseen memory leak in usual mount
/umount operations for nilfs.

Ryusuke Konishi a97778457f nilfs2: fix oops due to inconsistent state in page with discrete b-tree nodes
Andrea Gelmini gave me a report that a kernel oops hit on a nilfs
filesystem with a 1KB block size when doing rsync.

This turned out to be caused by an inconsistency of dirty state
between a page and its buffers storing b-tree node blocks.

If the page had multiple buffers split over multiple logs, and if the
logs were written at a time, a dirty flag remained in the page even
every dirty flag in the buffers was cleared.

This will fix the failure by dropping the dirty flag properly for
pages with the discrete multiple b-tree nodes.

Ryusuke Konishi e59399d010 nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount function
nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance.  Even
though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or
remount, the mount state was not properly protected in
nilfs_remount().

Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem;
nilfs_get_sb() holds:

  1. bdev->bd_mount_sem
  2. sb->s_umount  (sget acquires)

and nilfs_remount() holds:

  1. sb->s_umount  (locked by the caller in vfs)
  2. bdev->bd_mount_sem

To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting
super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount
state protection in nilfs_remount().

With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and
the lock order reversal will be resolved.  And the new rw-semaphore,
nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the
modification from nilfs_error function.

Ryusuke Konishi 003ff182fd nilfs2: allow future expansion of metadata read out via get info ioctl
Nilfs has some ioctl commands to read out metadata from meta data
files:

 - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_CPINFO for checkpoint file,
 - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_SUINFO for segment usage file, and
 - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_VINFO for Disk Address Transalation (DAT) file,
   respectively.

Every routine on these metadata files is implemented so that it allows
future expansion of on-disk format.  But, the above ioctl commands do
not support expansion even though nilfs_argv structure can handle
arbitrary size for data exchanged via ioctl.

This allows future expansion of the following structures which give
basic format of the "get information" ioctls:

 - struct nilfs_cpinfo
 - struct nilfs_suinfo
 - struct nilfs_vinfo

So, this introduces forward compatility of such ioctl commands.

In this patch, a sanity check in nilfs_ioctl_get_info() function is
changed to accept larger data structure [1], and metadata read
routines are rewritten so that they become compatible for larger
structures; the routines will just ignore the remaining fields which
the current version of nilfs doesn't know.

[1] The ioctl function already has another upper limit (PAGE_SIZE
    against a structure, which appears in nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy
    function), and this will not cause security problem.
