Linus Torvalds e77819e57f vfs: move ACL cache lookup into generic code
This moves logic for checking the cached ACL values from low-level
filesystems into generic code.  The end result is a streamlined ACL
check that doesn't need to load the inode->i_op->check_acl pointer at
all for the common cached case.

The filesystems also don't need to check for a non-blocking RCU walk
case in their acl_check() functions, because that is all handled at a
VFS layer.

Markus Trippelsdorf 340a0a01b9 xfs: Fix wrong return value of xfs_file_aio_write
The fsync prototype change commit 02c24a8218 accidentally overwrote
the ssize_t return value of xfs_file_aio_write with 0 for SYNC type
writes. Fix this by checking if an error occured when calling
xfs_file_fsync and only change the return value in this case.
In addition xfs_file_fsync actually returns a normal negative error, so
fix this, too.

Josef Bacik 02c24a8218 fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlers
Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called
in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and
the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers.  Some
file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and
ocfs2.  For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make
sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each
individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.
Thanks,

Christoph Hellwig 72c5052ddc fs: move inode_dio_done to the end_io handler
For filesystems that delay their end_io processing we should keep our
i_dio_count until the the processing is done.  Enable this by moving
the inode_dio_done call to the end_io handler if one exist.  Note that
the actual move to the workqueue for ext4 and XFS is not done in
this patch yet, but left to the filesystem maintainers.  At least
for XFS it's not needed yet either as XFS has an internal equivalent
to i_dio_count.

Dave Chinner 8daaa83145 xfs: make use of new shrinker callout for the inode cache
Convert the inode reclaim shrinker to use the new per-sb shrinker
operations. This allows much bigger reclaim batches to be used, and
allows the XFS inode cache to be shrunk in proportion with the VFS
dentry and inode caches. This avoids the problem of the VFS caches
being shrunk significantly before the XFS inode cache is shrunk
resulting in imbalances in the caches during reclaim.

Dave Chinner af3e40228f xfs: convert AIL cursors to use struct list_head
The list of active AIL cursors uses a roll-your-own linked list with
special casing for the AIL push cursor. Simplify this code by
replacing the list with standard struct list_head lists, and use a
separate list_head to track the active cursors. This allows us to
treat the AIL push cursor as a generic cursor rather than as a
special case, further simplifying the code.

Further, fix the duplicate push cursor initialisation that the
special case handling was hiding, and clean up all the comments
around the active cursor list handling.

Dave Chinner 1d8c95a363 xfs: use a cursor for bulk AIL insertion
Delayed logging can insert tens of thousands of log items into the
AIL at the same LSN. When the committing of log commit records
occur, we can get insertions occurring at an LSN that is not at the
end of the AIL. If there are thousands of items in the AIL on the
tail LSN, each insertion has to walk the AIL to find the correct
place to insert the new item into the AIL. This can consume large
amounts of CPU time and block other operations from occurring while
the traversals are in progress.

To avoid this repeated walk, use a AIL cursor to record
where we should be inserting the new items into the AIL without
having to repeat the walk. The cursor infrastructure already
provides this functionality for push walks, so is a simple extension
of existing code. While this will not avoid the initial walk, it
will avoid repeating it tens of thousands of times during a single
checkpoint commit.

This version includes logic improvements from Christoph Hellwig.

J. Bruce Fields ad1a2c878c xfs: failure mapping nfs fh to inode should return ESTALE
On xfs exports, nfsd is incorrectly returning ENOENT instead of
ESTALE on attempts to use a filehandle of a deleted file (spotted
with pynfs test PUTFH3).  The ENOENT was coming from xfs_iget.

(It's tempting to wonder whether we should just map all xfs_iget
errors to ESTALE, but I don't believe so--xfs_iget can also return
ENOMEM at least, which we wouldn't want mapped to ESTALE.)

While we're at it, the other return of ENOENT in xfs_nfs_get_inode()
also looks wrong.

Mimi Zohar 9d8f13ba3f security: new security_inode_init_security API adds function callback
This patch changes the security_inode_init_security API by adding a
filesystem specific callback to write security extended attributes.
This change is in preparation for supporting the initialization of
multiple LSM xattrs and the EVM xattr.  Initially the callback function
walks an array of xattrs, writing each xattr separately, but could be
optimized to write multiple xattrs at once.

For existing security_inode_init_security() calls, which have not yet
been converted to use the new callback function, such as those in
reiserfs and ocfs2, this patch defines security_old_inode_init_security().

Christoph Hellwig 33b8f7c247 xfs: improve sync behaviour in the face of aggressive dirtying
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.

Christoph Hellwig 8f04c47aa9 xfs: split xfs_itruncate_finish
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

Dave Chinner 1316d4da3f xfs: unpin stale inodes directly in IOP_COMMITTED
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 de25c18 ("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.

Dave Chinner 4a33821236 xfs: prevent bogus assert when trying to remove non-existent attribute
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.

Dave Chinner df4368a146 xfs: clear XFS_IDIRTY_RELEASE on truncate down
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.

Dave Chinner 778e24bb6d xfs: reset inode per-lifetime state when recycling it
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.

Christoph Hellwig 55a7bc5a30 xfs: do not discard alloc btree blocks
Blocks for the allocation btree are allocated from and released to
the AGFL, and thus frequently reused.  Even worse we do not have an
easy way to avoid using an AGFL block when it is discarded due to
the simple FILO list of free blocks, and thus can frequently stall
on blocks that are currently undergoing a discard.

Add a flag to the busy extent tracking structure to skip the discard
for allocation btree blocks.  In normal operation these blocks are
reused frequently enough that there is no need to discard them
anyway, but if they spill over to the allocation btree as part of a
balance we "leak" blocks that we would otherwise discard.  We could
fix this by adding another flag and keeping these block in the
rbtree even after they aren't busy any more so that we could discard
them when they migrate out of the AGFL.  Given that this would cause
significant overhead I don't think it's worthwile for now.

Christoph Hellwig e84661aa84 xfs: add online discard support
Now that we have reliably tracking of deleted extents in a
transaction we can easily implement "online" discard support
which calls blkdev_issue_discard once a transaction commits.

The actual discard is a two stage operation as we first have
to mark the busy extent as not available for reuse before we
can start the actual discard.  Note that we don't bother
supporting discard for the non-delaylog mode.

Dave Chinner bf59170a66 xfs: obey minleft values during extent allocation correctly
When allocating an extent that is long enough to consume the
remaining free space in an AG, we need to ensure that the allocation
leaves enough space in the AG for any subsequent bmap btree blocks
that are needed to track the new extent. These have to be allocated
in the same AG as we only reserve enough blocks in an allocation
transaction for modification of the freespace trees in a single AG.

xfs_alloc_fix_minleft() has been considering blocks on the AGFL as
free blocks available for extent and bmbt block allocation, which is
not correct - blocks on the AGFL are there exclusively for the use
of the free space btrees. As a result, when minleft is less than the
number of blocks on the AGFL, xfs_alloc_fix_minleft() does not trim
the given extent to leave minleft blocks available for bmbt
allocation, and hence we can fail allocation during bmbt record
insertion.

Dave Chinner 44396476a0 xfs: reset buffer pointers before freeing them
When we free a vmapped buffer, we need to ensure the vmap address
and length we free is the same as when it was allocated. In various
places in the log code we change the memory the buffer is pointing
to before issuing IO, but we never reset the buffer to point back to
it's original memory (or no memory, if that is the case for the
buffer).

As a result, when we free the buffer it points to memory that is
owned by something else and attempts to unmap and free it. Because
the range does not match any known mapped range, it can trigger
BUG_ON() traps in the vmap code, and potentially corrupt the vmap
area tracking.

Fix this by always resetting these buffers to their original state
before freeing them.

Dave Chinner ee58abdfcc xfs: avoid getting stuck during async inode flushes
When the underlying inode buffer is locked and xfs_sync_inode_attr()
is doing a non-blocking flush, xfs_iflush() can return EAGAIN.  When
this happens, clear the error rather than returning it to
xfs_inode_ag_walk(), as returning EAGAIN will result in the AG walk
delaying for a short while and trying again. This can result in
background walks getting stuck on the one AG until inode buffer is
unlocked by some other means.

This behaviour was noticed when analysing event traces followed by
code inspection and verification of the fix via further traces.

Dave Chinner 7ac956576d xfs: fix race condition in AIL push trigger
The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One is caused by a
race condition in determining whether there is a psh in progress or
not.

The XFS_AIL_PUSHING_BIT is used to determine whether a push is
currently in progress.  When the AIL push work completes, it checked
whether the target changed and cleared the PUSHING bit to allow a
new push to be requeued. The race condition is as follows:

	Thread 1		push work

	smp_wmb()
				smp_rmb()
				check ailp->xa_target unchanged
	update ailp->xa_target
	test/set PUSHING bit
	does not queue
				clear PUSHING bit
				does not requeue

Now that the push target is updated, new attempts to push the AIL
will not trigger as the push target will be the same, and hence
despite trying to push the AIL we won't ever wake it again.

The fix is to ensure that the AIL push work clears the PUSHING bit
before it checks if the target is unchanged.

As a result, both push triggers operate on the same test/set bit
criteria, so even if we race in the push work and miss the target
update, the thread requesting the push will still set the PUSHING
bit and queue the push work to occur. For safety sake, the same
queue check is done if the push work detects the target change,
though only one of the two will will queue new work due to the use
of test_and_set_bit() checks.

We cannot copy a 64 bit LSN without the possibility of corrupting
the result when racing with another updating thread. We have
function to do this update safely without needing to care about
32/64 bit issues - xfs_trans_ail_copy_lsn() - so use that when

Also move the reading of the target in the push work inside the AIL

Dave Chinner 50e86686df xfs: always push the AIL to the target
The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One of the problems
discovered is a target mismatch between the item pushing loop and
the target itself.

The push trigger checks for the target increasing (i.e. new target >
current) while the push loop only pushes items that have a LSN <
current. As a result, we can get the situation where the push target
is X, the items at the tail of the AIL have LSN X and they don't get
pushed. The push work then completes thinking it is done, and cannot
be restarted until the push target increases to >= X + 1. If the
push target then never increases (because the tail is not moving),
then we never run the push work again and we stall.

Fix it by making sure log items with a LSN that matches the target
exactly are pushed during the loop.

Dave Chinner 228d62dd3f xfs: ensure reclaim cursor is reset correctly at end of AG
On a 32 bit highmem PowerPC machine, the XFS inode cache was growing
without bound and exhausting low memory causing the OOM killer to be
triggered. After some effort, the problem was reproduced on a 32 bit
x86 highmem machine.

The problem is that the per-ag inode reclaim index cursor was not
getting reset to the start of the AG if the radix tree tag lookup
found no more reclaimable inodes. Hence every further reclaim
attempt started at the same index beyond where any reclaimable
inodes lay, and no further background reclaim ever occurred from the
AG.

Without background inode reclaim the VM driven cache shrinker
simply cannot keep up with cache growth, and OOM is the result.

While the change that exposed the problem was the conversion of the
inode reclaim to use work queues for background reclaim, it was not
the cause of the bug. The bug was introduced when the cursor code
was added, just waiting for some weird configuration to strike....

Christoph Hellwig e26f0501cf xfs: do not immediately reuse busy extent ranges
Every time we reallocate a busy extent, we cause a synchronous log force
to occur to ensure the freeing transaction is on disk before we continue
and use the newly allocated extent.  This is extremely sub-optimal as we
have to mark every transaction with blocks that get reused as synchronous.

Instead of searching the busy extent list after deciding on the extent to
allocate, check each candidate extent during the allocation decisions as
to whether they are in the busy list.  If they are in the busy list, we
trim the busy range out of the extent we have found and determine if that
trimmed range is still OK for allocation. In many cases, this check can
be incorporated into the allocation extent alignment code which already
does trimming of the found extent before determining if it is a valid
candidate for allocation.

Based on earlier patches from Dave Chinner.

list insert from xfs_free_ag_extent which is used both by AGFL refills

Christoph Hellwig 957935dcd8 xfs: fix xfs_debug warnings
For a CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=n build gcc complains about statements with no
effect in xfs_debug:

fs/xfs/quota/xfs_qm_syscalls.c: In function 'xfs_qm_scall_trunc_qfiles':
fs/xfs/quota/xfs_qm_syscalls.c:291:3: warning: statement with no effect

The reason for that is that the various new xfs message functions have a
return value which is never used, and in case of the non-debug build
xfs_debug the macro evaluates to a plain 0 which produces the above
warnings.  This can be fixed by turning xfs_debug into an inline function
instead of a macro, but in addition to that I've also changed all the
message helpers to return void as we never use their return values.

Dave Chinner da8a1a4a4d xfs: convert log tail checking to a warning
On the Power platform, the log tail debug checks fire excessively
causing the system to panic early in testing. The debug checks are
known to be racy, though on x86_64 there is no evidence that they
trigger at all.

We want to keep the checks active on debug systems to alert us to
problems with log space accounting, but we need to reduce the impact
of a racy check on testing on the Power platform.

As a result, convert the ASSERT conditions to warnings, and
allow them to fire only once per filesystem mount. This will prevent
false positives from interfering with testing, whilst still
providing us with the indication that they may be a problem with log
space accounting should that occur.

Dave Chinner fd074841cf xfs: push the AIL from memory reclaim and periodic sync
When we are short on memory, we want to expedite the cleaning of
dirty objects.  Hence when we run short on memory, we need to kick
the AIL flushing into action to clean as many dirty objects as
quickly as possible.  To implement this, sample the lsn of the log
item at the head of the AIL and use that as the push target for the
AIL flush.

Further, we keep items in the AIL that are dirty that are not
tracked any other way, so we can get objects sitting in the AIL that
don't get written back until the AIL is pushed. Hence to get the
filesystem to the idle state, we might need to push the AIL to flush
out any remaining dirty objects sitting in the AIL. This requires
the same push mechanism as the reclaim push.

This patch also renames xfs_trans_ail_tail() to xfs_ail_min_lsn() to
match the new xfs_ail_max_lsn() function introduced in this patch.
Similarly for xfs_trans_ail_push -> xfs_ail_push.

Dave Chinner a7b339f1b8 xfs: introduce background inode reclaim work
Background inode reclaim needs to run more frequently that the XFS
syncd work is run as 30s is too long between optimal reclaim runs.
Add a new periodic work item to the xfs syncd workqueue to run a
fast, non-blocking inode reclaim scan.

Background inode reclaim is kicked by the act of marking inodes for
reclaim.  When an AG is first marked as having reclaimable inodes,
the background reclaim work is kicked. It will continue to run
periodically untill it detects that there are no more reclaimable
inodes. It will be kicked again when the first inode is queued for
reclaim.

To ensure shrinker based inode reclaim throttles to the inode
cleaning and reclaim rate but still reclaim inodes efficiently, make it kick the
background inode reclaim so that when we are low on memory we are
trying to reclaim inodes as efficiently as possible. This kick shoul
d not be necessary, but it will protect against failures to kick the
background reclaim when inodes are first dirtied.

To provide the rate throttling, make the shrinker pass do
synchronous inode reclaim so that it blocks on inodes under IO. This
means that the shrinker will reclaim inodes rather than just
skipping over them, but it does not adversely affect the rate of
reclaim because most dirty inodes are already under IO due to the
background reclaim work the shrinker kicked.

These two modifications solve one of the two OOM killer invocations
Chris Mason reported recently when running a stress testing script.
The particular workload trigger for the OOM killer invocation is
where there are more threads than CPUs all unlinking files in an
extremely memory constrained environment. Unlike other solutions,
this one does not have a performance impact on performance when
memory is not constrained or the number of concurrent threads
operating is <= to the number of CPUs.

Dave Chinner 89e4cb550a xfs: convert ENOSPC inode flushing to use new syncd workqueue
On of the problems with the current inode flush at ENOSPC is that we
queue a flush per ENOSPC event, regardless of how many are already
queued. Thi can result in    hundreds of queued flushes, most of
which simply burn CPU scanned and do no real work. This simply slows
down allocation at ENOSPC.

We really only need one active flush at a time, and we can easily
implement that via the new xfs_syncd_wq. All we need to do is queue
a flush if one is not already active, then block waiting for the
currently active flush to complete. The result is that we only ever
have a single ENOSPC inode flush active at a time and this greatly
reduces the overhead of ENOSPC processing.

On my 2p test machine, this results in tests exercising ENOSPC
conditions running significantly faster - 042 halves execution time,
083 drops from 60s to 5s, etc - while not introducing test
regressions.

This allows us to remove the old xfssyncd threads and infrastructure
as they are no longer used.

Dave Chinner c6d09b666d xfs: introduce a xfssyncd workqueue
All of the work xfssyncd does is background functionality. There is
no need for a thread per filesystem to do this work - it can al be
managed by a global workqueue now they manage concurrency
effectively.

Introduce a new gglobal xfssyncd workqueue, and convert the periodic
work to use this new functionality. To do this, use a delayed work
construct to schedule the next running of the periodic sync work
for the filesystem. When the sync work is complete, queue a new
delayed work for the next running of the sync work.

For laptop mode, we wait on completion for the sync works, so ensure
that the sync work queuing interface can flush and wait for work to
complete to enable the work queue infrastructure to replace the
current sequence number and wakeup that is used.

Because the sync work does non-trivial amounts of work, mark the
new work queue as CPU intensive.

Dave Chinner e828776a8a xfs: fix extent format buffer allocation size
When formatting an inode item, we have to allocate a separate buffer
to hold extents when there are delayed allocation extents on the
inode and it is in extent format. The allocation size is derived
from the in-core data fork representation, which accounts for
delayed allocation extents, while the on-disk representation does
not contain any delalloc extents.

As a result of this mismatch, the allocated buffer can be far larger
than needed to hold the real extent list which, due to the fact the
inode is in extent format, is limited to the size of the literal
area of the inode. However, we can have thousands of delalloc
extents, resulting in an allocation size orders of magnitude larger
than is needed to hold all the real extents.

Fix this by limiting the size of the buffer being allocated to the
size of the literal area of the inodes in the filesystem (i.e. the
maximum size an inode fork can grow to).

Dave Chinner 0e6e847ffe xfs: stop using the page cache to back the buffer cache
Now that the buffer cache has it's own LRU, we do not need to use
the page cache to provide persistent caching and reclaim
infrastructure. Convert the buffer cache to use alloc_pages()
instead of the page cache. This will remove all the overhead of page
cache management from setup and teardown of the buffers, as well as
needing to mark pages accessed as we find buffers in the buffer
cache.

By avoiding the page cache, we also remove the need to keep state in
the page_private(page) field for persistant storage across buffer
free/buffer rebuild and so all that code can be removed. This also
fixes the long-standing problem of not having enough bits in the
page_private field to track all the state needed for a 512
sector/64k page setup.

It also removes the need for page locking during reads as the pages
are unique to the buffer and nobody else will be attempting to
access them.

Finally, it removes the buftarg address space lock as a point of
global contention on workloads that allocate and free buffers
quickly such as when creating or removing large numbers of inodes in
parallel. This remove the 16TB limit on filesystem size on 32 bit
machines as the page index (32 bit) is no longer used for lookups
of metadata buffers - the buffer cache is now solely indexed by disk
address which is stored in a 64 bit field in the buffer.

Dave Chinner 704b2907c2 xfs: register the inode cache shrinker before quotachecks
During mount, we can do a quotacheck that involves a bulkstat pass
on all inodes. If there are more inodes in the filesystem than can
be held in memory, we require the inode cache shrinker to run to
ensure that we don't run out of memory.

Unfortunately, the inode cache shrinker is not registered until we
get to the end of the superblock setup process, which is after a
quotacheck is run if it is needed. Hence we need to register the
inode cache shrinker earlier in the mount process so that we don't
OOM during mount. This requires that we also initialise the syncd
work before we register the shrinker, so we nee dto juggle that
around as well.

While there, make sure that we have set up the block sizes in the
VFS superblock correctly before the quotacheck is run so that any
inodes that are cached as a result of the quotacheck have their
block size fields set up correctly.

Dave Chinner 7401aafd50 xfs: xfs_trans_read_buf() should return an error on failure
When inside a transaction and we fail to read a buffer,
xfs_trans_read_buf returns a null buffer pointer and no error.
xfs_do_da_buf() checks the error return, but not the buffer, and as
a result this read failure condition causes a panic when it attempts
to dereference the non-existant buffer.

Make xfs_trans_read_buf() return the same error for this situation
regardless of whether it is in a transaction or not. This means
every caller does not need to check both the error return and the
buffer before proceeding to use the buffer.

Dave Chinner 1bfd8d0419 xfs: introduce inode cluster buffer trylocks for xfs_iflush
There is an ABBA deadlock between synchronous inode flushing in
xfs_reclaim_inode and xfs_icluster_free. xfs_icluster_free locks the
buffer, then takes inode ilocks, whilst synchronous reclaim takes
the ilock followed by the buffer lock in xfs_iflush().

To avoid this deadlock, separate the inode cluster buffer locking
semantics from the synchronous inode flush semantics, allowing
callers to attempt to lock the buffer but still issue synchronous IO
if it can get the buffer. This requires xfs_iflush() calls that
currently use non-blocking semantics to pass SYNC_TRYLOCK rather
than 0 as the flags parameter.

This allows xfs_reclaim_inode to avoid the deadlock on the buffer
lock and detect the failure so that it can drop the inode ilock and
restart the reclaim attempt on the inode. This allows
xfs_ifree_cluster to obtain the inode lock, mark the inode stale and
release it and hence defuse the deadlock situation. It also has the
pleasant side effect of avoiding IO in xfs_reclaim_inode when it
tries to next reclaim the inode as it is now marked stale.

With the plugging now being explicitly controlled by the

Currently we return iodes from xfs_ialloc with just a single reference held.
But we need two references, as one is dropped during transaction commit and
the second needs to be transfered to the VFS.  Change xfs_ialloc to use
xfs_iget plus xfs_trans_ijoin_ref to grab two references to the inode,
and remove the now superflous IHOLD calls from all callers.  This also
greatly simplifies the error handling in xfs_create and also allow to remove
xfs_trans_iget as no other callers are left.

Eric Paris 2a7dba391e fs/vfs/security: pass last path component to LSM on inode creation
SELinux would like to implement a new labeling behavior of newly created
inodes.  We currently label new inodes based on the parent and the creating
process.  This new behavior would also take into account the name of the
new object when deciding the new label.  This is not the (supposed) full path,
just the last component of the path.

This is very useful because creating /etc/shadow is different than creating
/etc/passwd but the kernel hooks are unable to differentiate these
operations.  We currently require that userspace realize it is doing some
difficult operation like that and than userspace jumps through SELinux hoops
to get things set up correctly.  This patch does not implement new
behavior, that is obviously contained in a seperate SELinux patch, but it
does pass the needed name down to the correct LSM hook.  If no such name
exists it is fine to pass NULL.

bpm@sgi.com 24446fc66f xfs: xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real should init br_startblock
When filling in the middle of a previous delayed allocation in
xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real, set br_startblock of the new delay
extent to the right to nullstartblock instead of 0 before inserting
the extent into the ifork (xfs_iext_insert), rather than setting
br_startblock afterward.

Adding the extent into the ifork with br_startblock=0 can lead to
the extent being copied into the btree by xfs_bmap_extent_to_btree
if we happen to convert from extents format to btree format before
updating br_startblock with the correct value.  The unexpected
addition of this delay extent to the btree can cause subsequent
XFS_WANT_CORRUPTED_GOTO filesystem shutdown in several
xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real cases where we are converting a delay
extent to real and unexpectedly find an extent already inserted.
For example:

911         case BMAP_LEFT_FILLING:
912                 /*
913                  * Filling in the first part of a previous delayed allocation.
914                  * The left neighbor is not contiguous.
915                  */
916                 trace_xfs_bmap_pre_update(ip, idx, state, _THIS_IP_);
917                 xfs_bmbt_set_startoff(ep, new_endoff);
918                 temp = PREV.br_blockcount - new->br_blockcount;
919                 xfs_bmbt_set_blockcount(ep, temp);
920                 xfs_iext_insert(ip, idx, 1, new, state);
921                 ip->i_df.if_lastex = idx;
922                 ip->i_d.di_nextents++;
923                 if (cur == NULL)
924                         rval = XFS_ILOG_CORE | XFS_ILOG_DEXT;
925                 else {
926                         rval = XFS_ILOG_CORE;
927                         if ((error = xfs_bmbt_lookup_eq(cur, new->br_startoff,
928                                         new->br_startblock, new->br_blockcount,
929                                         &i)))
930                                 goto done;
931                         XFS_WANT_CORRUPTED_GOTO(i == 0, done);

With the bogus extent in the btree we shutdown the filesystem at
931.  The conversion from extents to btree format happens when the
number of extents in the inode increases above ip->i_df.if_ext_max.
xfs_bmap_extent_to_btree copies extents from the ifork into the
btree, ignoring all delalloc extents which are denoted by
br_startblock having some value of nullstartblock.

Rework the loop control logic into an unwind stack that all the

Dave Chinner 5315837dae xfs: limit extsize to size of AGs and/or MAXEXTLEN
The extent size hint can be set to larger than an AG. This means
that the alignment process can push the range to be allocated
outside the bounds of the AG, resulting in assert failures or
corrupted bmbt records. Similarly, if the extsize is larger than the
maximum extent size supported, the alignment process will produce
extents that are too large to fit into the bmbt records, resulting
in a different type of assert/corruption failure.

Fix this by limiting extsize at the time іt is set firstly to be

Dave Chinner 4ce159890c xfs: prevent extsize alignment from exceeding maximum extent size
When doing delayed allocation, if the allocation size is for a
maximally sized extent, extent size alignment can push it over this
limit. This results in an assert failure in xfs_bmbt_set_allf() as
the extent length is too large to find in the extent record.

Fix this by ensuring that we allow for space that extent size
alignment requires (up to 2 * (extsize -1) blocks as we have to
handle both head and tail alignment) when limiting the maximum size
of the extent.

Dave Chinner 14b064ceaa xfs: limit extent length for allocation to AG size
Delayed allocation extents can be larger than AGs, so when trying to
convert a large range we may scan every AG inside
xfs_bmap_alloc_nullfb() trying to find an AG with a size larger than
an AG. We should stop when we find the first AG with a maximum
possible allocation size. This causes excessive CPU usage when there
are lots of AGs.

The same problem occurs when doing preallocation of a range larger
than an AG.

Fix the problem by limiting real allocation lengths to the maximum
that an AG can support. This means if we have empty AGs, we'll stop
the search at the first of them. If there are no empty AGs, we'll
still scan them all, but that is a different problem....

The cause of the leak is that the "remove" parameter of IOP_UNPIN()
is never set when a CIL push is aborted. This means that the EFI
item is never freed if it was in the push being cancelled. The
problem is specific to delayed logging, but has uncovered a couple
of problems with the handling of IOP_UNPIN(remove).

Firstly, we cannot safely call xfs_trans_del_item() from IOP_UNPIN()
in the CIL commit failure path or the iclog write failure path
because for delayed loging we have no transaction context. Hence we
must only call xfs_trans_del_item() if the log item being unpinned
has an active log item descriptor.

Secondly, xfs_trans_uncommit() does not handle log item descriptor
freeing during the traversal of log items on a transaction. It can
reference a freed log item descriptor when unpinning an EFI item.
Hence it needs to use a safe list traversal method to allow items to
be removed from the transaction during IOP_UNPIN().

Currently all filesystems except XFS implement fallocate asynchronously,
while XFS forced a commit.  Both of these are suboptimal - in case of O_SYNC
I/O we really want our allocation on disk, especially for the !KEEP_SIZE
case where we actually grow the file with user-visible zeroes.  On the
other hand always commiting the transaction is a bad idea for fast-path
uses of fallocate like for example in recent Samba versions.   Given
that block allocation is a data plane operation anyway change it from
an inode operation to a file operation so that we have the file structure
available that lets us check for O_SYNC.

This also includes moving the code around for a few of the filesystems,
and remove the already unnedded S_ISDIR checks given that we only wire
up fallocate for regular files.

Dave Chinner 73efe4a4dd xfs: prevent NMI timeouts in cmn_err
We currently have a global error message buffer in cmn_err that is
protected by a spin lock that disables interrupts.  Recently there
have been reports of NMI timeouts occurring when the console is
being flooded by SCSI error reports due to cmn_err() getting stuck
trying to print to the console while holding this lock (i.e. with
interrupts disabled). The NMI watchdog is seeing this CPU as
non-responding and so is triggering a panic.  While the trigger for
the reported case is SCSI errors, pretty much anything that spams
the kernel log could cause this to occur.

Realistically the only reason that we have the intemediate message
buffer is to prepend the correct kernel log level prefix to the log
message. The only reason we have the lock is to protect the global
message buffer and the only reason the message buffer is global is
to keep it off the stack. Hence if we can avoid needing a global
message buffer we avoid needing the lock, and we can do this with a
small amount of cleanup and some preprocessor tricks:

	1. clean up xfs_cmn_err() panic mask functionality to avoid
	   needing debug code in xfs_cmn_err()
	2. remove the couple of "!" message prefixes that still exist that
	   the existing cmn_err() code steps over.
	3. redefine CE_* levels directly to KERN_*
	4. redefine cmn_err() and friends to use printk() directly
	   via variable argument length macros.

By doing this, we can completely remove the cmn_err() code and the
lock that is causing the problems, and rely solely on printk()
serialisation to ensure that we don't get garbled messages.

A series of followup patches is really needed to clean up all the
cmn_err() calls and related messages properly, but that results in a
series that is not easily back portable to enterprise kernels. Hence
this initial fix is only to address the direct problem in the lowest
impact way possible.

Christoph Hellwig bfc60177f8 xfs: fix error handling for synchronous writes
If we get an IO error on a synchronous superblock write, we attach an
error release function to it so that when the last reference goes away
the release function is called and the buffer is invalidated and
unlocked. The buffer is left locked until the release function is
called so that other concurrent users of the buffer will be locked out
until the buffer error is fully processed.

Unfortunately, for the superblock buffer the filesyetm itself holds a
reference to the buffer which prevents the reference count from
dropping to zero and the release function being called. As a result,
once an IO error occurs on a sync write, the buffer will never be
unlocked and all future attempts to lock the buffer will hang.

To make matters worse, this problems is not unique to such buffers;
if there is a concurrent _xfs_buf_find() running, the lookup will grab
a reference to the buffer and then wait on the buffer lock, preventing
the reference count from ever falling to zero and hence unlocking the
buffer.

As such, the whole b_relse function implementation is broken because it
cannot rely on the buffer reference count falling to zero to unlock the
errored buffer. The synchronous write error path is the only path that
uses this callback - it is used to ensure that the synchronous waiter
gets the buffer error before the error state is cleared from the buffer
by the release function.

Given that the only sychronous buffer writes now go through xfs_bwrite
and the error path in question can only occur for a write of a dirty,
logged buffer, we can move most of the b_relse processing to happen
inline in xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks, just like a normal I/O completion.
In addition to that we make sure the error is not cleared in
xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks, so that xfs_bwrite can reliably check it.
Given that xfs_bwrite keeps the buffer locked until it has waited for
it and checked the error this allows to reliably propagate the error
to the caller, and make sure that the buffer is reliably unlocked.

Given that xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks was the only instance of the
b_relse callback we can remove it entirely.

Dave Chinner c58efdb442 xfs: ensure log covering transactions are synchronous
To ensure the log is covered and the filesystem idles correctly, we
need to ensure that dummy transactions hit the disk and do not stay
pinned in memory.  If the superblock is pinned in memory, it can't
be flushed so the log covering cannot make progress. The result is
dependent on timing - more oftent han not we continue to issues a
log covering transaction every 36s rather than idling after ~90s.

Fix this by making the log covering transaction synchronous. To
avoid additional log force from xfssyncd, make the log covering
transaction take the place of the existing log force in the xfssyncd
background sync process.

Dave Chinner eda7798272 xfs: serialise unaligned direct IOs
When two concurrent unaligned, non-overlapping direct IOs are issued
to the same block, the direct Io layer will race to zero the block.
The result is that one of the concurrent IOs will overwrite data
written by the other IO with zeros. This is demonstrated by the
xfsqa test 240.

To avoid this problem, serialise all unaligned direct IOs to an
inode with a big hammer. We need a big hammer approach as we need to
serialise AIO as well, so we can't just block writes on locks.
Hence, the big hammer is calling xfs_ioend_wait() while holding out
other unaligned direct IOs from starting.

We don't bother trying to serialised aligned vs unaligned IOs as
they are overlapping IO and the result of concurrent overlapping IOs
is undefined - the result of either IO is a valid result so we let
them race. Hence we only penalise unaligned IO, which already has a
major overhead compared to aligned IO so this isn't a major problem.

Dave Chinner 487f84f3f8 xfs: introduce xfs_rw_lock() helpers for locking the inode
We need to obtain the i_mutex, i_iolock and i_ilock during the read
and write paths. Add a set of wrapper functions to neatly
encapsulate the lock ordering and shared/exclusive semantics to make
the locking easier to follow and get right.

Note that this changes some of the exclusive locking serialisation in
that serialisation will occur against the i_mutex instead of the
XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL. This does not change any behaviour, and it is
arguably more efficient to use the mutex for such serialisation than
the rw_sem.

Nick Piggin fa0d7e3de6 fs: icache RCU free inodes
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:

- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
  permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
  to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
  the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
  page lock to follow page->mapping.

The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.

In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.

The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

Dave Chinner d0eb2f38b2 xfs: convert grant head manipulations to lockless algorithm
The only thing that the grant lock remains to protect is the grant head
manipulations when adding or removing space from the log. These calculations
are already based on atomic variables, so we can already update them safely
without locks. However, the grant head manpulations require atomic multi-step
calculations to be executed, which the algorithms currently don't allow.

To make these multi-step calculations atomic, convert the algorithms to
compare-and-exchange loops on the atomic variables. That is, we sample the old
value, perform the calculation and use atomic64_cmpxchg() to attempt to update
the head with the new value. If the head has not changed since we sampled it,
it will succeed and we are done. Otherwise, we rerun the calculation again from
a new sample of the head.

This allows us to remove the grant lock from around all the grant head space
manipulations, and that effectively removes the grant lock from the log
completely. Hence we can remove the grant lock completely from the log at this
point.

Dave Chinner 3f16b98507 xfs: introduce new locks for the log grant ticket wait queues
The log grant ticket wait queues are currently protected by the log
grant lock.  However, the queues are functionally independent from
each other, and operations on them only require serialisation
against other queue operations now that all of the other log
variables they use are atomic values.

Hence, we can make them independent of the grant lock by introducing
new locks just to protect the lists operations. because the lists
are independent, we can use a lock per list and ensure that reserve
and write head queuing do not contend.

To ensure forced shutdowns work correctly in conjunction with the
new fast paths, ensure that we check whether the log has been shut
down in the grant functions once we hold the relevant spin locks but
before we go to sleep. This is needed to co-ordinate correctly with
the wakeups that are issued on the ticket queues so we don't leave
any processes sleeping on the queues during a shutdown.

Dave Chinner 2ced19cbae xfs: make AIL tail pushing independent of the grant lock

the tail lsn, last sync lsn and the reserve grant head. Most of the callers
already hold the grant lock but have to drop it before calling
xlog_grant_push_ail(). This is a left over from when the AIL tail pushing was
done in line and hence xlog_grant_push_ail had to drop the grant lock. AIL push
is now done in another thread and hence we can safely hold the grant lock over
the entire xlog_grant_push_ail call.

Push the grant lock outside of xlog_grant_push_ail() to simplify the locking
and synchronisation needed for tail pushing.  This will reduce traffic on the
grant lock by itself, but this is only one step in preparing for the complete
removal of the grant lock.

While there, clean up the formatting of xlog_grant_push_ail() to match the

Dave Chinner 0e57f6a36f xfs: bulk AIL insertion during transaction commit
When inserting items into the AIL from the transaction committed
callbacks, we take the AIL lock for every single item that is to be
inserted. For a CIL checkpoint commit, this can be tens of thousands
of individual inserts, yet almost all of the items will be inserted
at the same point in the AIL because they have the same index.

To reduce the overhead and contention on the AIL lock for such
operations, introduce a "bulk insert" operation which allows a list
of log items with the same LSN to be inserted in a single operation
via a list splice. To do this, we need to pre-sort the log items
being committed into a temporary list for insertion.

The complexity is that not every log item will end up with the same
LSN, and not every item is actually inserted into the AIL. Items
that don't match the commit LSN will be inserted and unpinned as per
the current one-at-a-time method (relatively rare), while items that
are not to be inserted will be unpinned and freed immediately. Items
that are to be inserted at the given commit lsn are placed in a
temporary array and inserted into the AIL in bulk each time the
array fills up.

As a result of this, we trade off AIL hold time for a significant
reduction in traffic. lock_stat output shows that the worst case
hold time is unchanged, but contention from AIL inserts drops by an
order of magnitude and the number of lock traversal decreases
significantly.

Dave Chinner 430cbeb86f xfs: add a lru to the XFS buffer cache
Introduce a per-buftarg LRU for memory reclaim to operate on. This
is the last piece we need to put in place so that we can fully
control the buffer lifecycle. This allows XFS to be responsibile for
maintaining the working set of buffers under memory pressure instead
of relying on the VM reclaim not to take pages we need out from
underneath us.

The implementation introduces a b_lru_ref counter into the buffer.
This is currently set to 1 whenever the buffer is referenced and so is used to
determine if the buffer should be added to the LRU or not when freed.
Effectively it allows lazy LRU initialisation of the buffer so we do not need
to touch the LRU list and locks in xfs_buf_find().

Instead, when the buffer is being released and we drop the last
reference to it, we check the b_lru_ref count and if it is none zero
we re-add the buffer reference and add the inode to the LRU. The
b_lru_ref counter is decremented by the shrinker, and whenever the
shrinker comes across a buffer with a zero b_lru_ref counter, if
released the LRU reference on the buffer. In the absence of a lookup
race, this will result in the buffer being freed.

This counting mechanism is used instead of a reference flag so that
it is simple to re-introduce buffer-type specific reclaim reference
counts to prioritise reclaim more effectively. We still have all
those hooks in the XFS code, so this will provide the infrastructure
to re-implement that functionality.

error, even though error injection is not active.

Kill this overhead when error injection is not active by adding a
global counter of active error traps and only calling into
xfs_error_test when fault injection is active.

Dave Chinner de25c1818c xfs: avoid moving stale inodes in the AIL
When an inode has been marked stale because the cluster is being
freed, we don't want to (re-)insert this inode into the AIL. There
is a race condition where the cluster buffer may be unpinned before
the inode is inserted into the AIL during transaction committed
processing. If the buffer is unpinned before the inode item has been
committed and inserted, then it is possible for the buffer to be
released and hence processthe stale inode callbacks before the inode
is inserted into the AIL.

In this case, we then insert a clean, stale inode into the AIL which
will never get removed by an IO completion. It will, however, get
reclaimed and that triggers an assert in xfs_inode_free()
complaining about freeing an inode still in the AIL.

This race can be avoided by not moving stale inodes forward in the AIL
during transaction commit completion processing. This closes the
race condition by ensuring we never insert clean stale inodes into
the AIL. It is safe to do this because a dirty stale inode, by
definition, must already be in the AIL.

Dave Chinner 309c848002 xfs: delayed alloc blocks beyond EOF are valid after writeback
There is an assumption in the parts of XFS that flushing a dirty
file will make all the delayed allocation blocks disappear from an
inode. That is, that after calling xfs_flush_pages() then
ip->i_delayed_blks will be zero.

This is an invalid assumption as we may have specualtive
preallocation beyond EOF and they are recorded in
ip->i_delayed_blks. A flush of the dirty pages of an inode will not
change the state of these blocks beyond EOF, so a non-zero
deeelalloc block count after a flush is valid.

The bmap code has an invalid ASSERT() that needs to be removed, and
the swapext code has a bug in that while it swaps the data forks
around, it fails to swap the i_delayed_blks counter associated with
the fork and hence can get the block accounting wrong.

Dave Chinner 90810b9e82 xfs: push stale, pinned buffers on trylock failures
As reported by Nick Piggin, XFS is suffering from long pauses under
highly concurrent workloads when hosted on ramdisks. The problem is
that an inode buffer is stuck in the pinned state in memory and as a
result either the inode buffer or one of the inodes within the
buffer is stopping the tail of the log from being moved forward.

The system remains in this state until a periodic log force issued
by xfssyncd causes the buffer to be unpinned. The main problem is
that these are stale buffers, and are hence held locked until the
transaction/checkpoint that marked them state has been committed to
disk. When the filesystem gets into this state, only the xfssyncd
can cause the async transactions to be committed to disk and hence
unpin the inode buffer.

This problem was encountered when scaling the busy extent list, but
only the blocking lock interface was fixed to solve the problem.
Extend the same fix to the buffer trylock operations - if we fail to
lock a pinned, stale buffer, then force the log immediately so that
when the next attempt to lock it comes around, it will have been
unpinned.

Dave Chinner c726de4409 xfs: fix failed write truncation handling.
Since the move to the new truncate sequence we call xfs_setattr to
truncate down excessively instanciated blocks.  As shown by the testcase
in kernel.org BZ #22452 that doesn't work too well.  Due to the confusion
of the internal inode size, and the VFS inode i_size it zeroes data that
it shouldn't.

But full blown truncate seems like overkill here.  We only instanciate
delayed allocations in the write path, and given that we never released
the iolock we can't have converted them to real allocations yet either.

The only nasty case is pre-existing preallocation which we need to skip.
We already do this for page discard during writeback, so make the delayed
allocation block punching a generic function and call it from the failed
write path as well as xfs_aops_discard_page. The callers are
responsible for ensuring that partial blocks are not truncated away,
and that they hold the ilock.

Based on a fix originally from Christoph Hellwig. This version used
filesystem blocks as the range unit.

Dave Chinner 1a3e8f3da0 xfs: convert inode cache lookups to use RCU locking
With delayed logging greatly increasing the sustained parallelism of inode
operations, the inode cache locking is showing significant read vs write
contention when inode reclaim runs at the same time as lookups. There is
also a lot more write lock acquistions than there are read locks (4:1 ratio)
so the read locking is not really buying us much in the way of parallelism.

To avoid the read vs write contention, change the cache to use RCU locking on
the read side. To avoid needing to RCU free every single inode, use the built
in slab RCU freeing mechanism. This requires us to be able to detect lookups of
freed inodes, so enѕure that ever freed inode has an inode number of zero and
the XFS_IRECLAIM flag set. We already check the XFS_IRECLAIM flag in cache hit
lookup path, but also add a check for a zero inode number as well.

We canthen convert all the read locking lockups to use RCU read side locking
and hence remove all read side locking.

This patch uses basic RCU freeing rather than SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU.

Dave Chinner 6e857567db xfs: don't truncate prealloc from frequently accessed inodes
A long standing problem for streaming writeѕ through the NFS server
has been that the NFS server opens and closes file descriptors on an
inode for every write. The result of this behaviour is that the
->release() function is called on every close and that results in
XFS truncating speculative preallocation beyond the EOF.  This has
an adverse effect on file layout when multiple files are being
written at the same time - they interleave their extents and can
result in severe fragmentation.

To avoid this problem, keep track of ->release calls made on a dirty
inode. For most cases, an inode is only going to be opened once for
writing and then closed again during it's lifetime in cache. Hence
if there are multiple ->release calls when the inode is dirty, there
is a good chance that the inode is being accessed by the NFS server.
Hence set a flag the first time ->release is called while there are
delalloc blocks still outstanding on the inode.

If this flag is set when ->release is next called, then do no
truncate away the speculative preallocation - leave it there so that
subsequent writes do not need to reallocate the delalloc space. This
will prevent interleaving of extents of different inodes written
concurrently to the same AG.

If we get this wrong, it is not a big deal as we truncate
speculative allocation beyond EOF anyway in xfs_inactive() when the
inode is thrown out of the cache.

Dave Chinner 055388a318 xfs: dynamic speculative EOF preallocation
Currently the size of the speculative preallocation during delayed
allocation is fixed by either the allocsize mount option of a
default size. We are seeing a lot of cases where we need to
recommend using the allocsize mount option to prevent fragmentation
when buffered writes land in the same AG.

Rather than using a fixed preallocation size by default (up to 64k),
make it dynamic by basing it on the current inode size. That way the
EOF preallocation will increase as the file size increases.  Hence
for streaming writes we are much more likely to get large
preallocations exactly when we need it to reduce fragementation.

For default settings, the size of the initial extents is determined
by the number of parallel writers and the amount of memory in the
machine. For 4GB RAM and 4 concurrent 32GB file writes:

Because it is hard to take back specualtive preallocation, cases
where there are large slow growing log files on a nearly full
filesystem may cause premature ENOSPC. Hence as the filesystem nears
full, the maximum dynamic prealloc size іs reduced according to this
table (based on 4k block size):

freespace       max prealloc size
  >5%             full extent (8GB)
  4-5%             2GB (8GB >> 2)
  3-4%             1GB (8GB >> 3)
  2-3%           512MB (8GB >> 4)
  1-2%           256MB (8GB >> 5)
  <1%            128MB (8GB >> 6)

This should reduce the amount of space held in speculative
preallocation for such cases.

The allocsize mount option turns off the dynamic behaviour and fixes
the prealloc size to whatever the mount option specifies. i.e. the
behaviour is unchanged.

Samuel Kvasnica 576ecb8e2b xfs: fix exporting with left over 64-bit inodes
We now support mounting and using filesystems with 64-bit inodes
even when not mounted with the inode64 option (which now only
controls if we allocate new inodes in that space or not).  Make sure
we always use large NFS file handles when exporting a filesystem
that may contain 64-bit inodes.  Note that this only affects newly
generated file handles, any outstanding 32-bit file handle is still
accepted.

Tejun Heo d4d7762995 block: clean up blkdev_get() wrappers and their users
After recent blkdev_get() modifications, open_by_devnum() and
open_bdev_exclusive() are simple wrappers around blkdev_get().
Replace them with blkdev_get_by_dev() and blkdev_get_by_path().

blkdev_get_by_dev() is identical to open_by_devnum().
blkdev_get_by_path() is slightly different in that it doesn't
automatically add %FMODE_EXCL to @mode.

All users are converted.  Most conversions are mechanical and don't
introduce any behavior difference.  There are several exceptions.

* btrfs now sets FMODE_EXCL in btrfs_device->mode, so there's no
  reason to OR it explicitly on blkdev_put().

* gfs2, nilfs2 and the generic mount_bdev() now set FMODE_EXCL in
  sb->s_mode.

* With the above changes, sb->s_mode now always should contain
  FMODE_EXCL.  WARN_ON_ONCE() added to kill_block_super() to detect
  errors.

The new blkdev_get_*() functions are with proper docbook comments.
While at it, add function description to blkdev_get() too.

Tejun Heo e525fd89d3 block: make blkdev_get/put() handle exclusive access
Over time, block layer has accumulated a set of APIs dealing with bdev
open, close, claim and release.

* blkdev_get/put() are the primary open and close functions.

* bd_claim/release() deal with exclusive open.

* open/close_bdev_exclusive() are combination of open and claim and
  the other way around, respectively.

* bd_link/unlink_disk_holder() to create and remove holder/slave
  symlinks.

* open_by_devnum() wraps bdget() + blkdev_get().

The interface is a bit confusing and the decoupling of open and claim
makes it impossible to properly guarantee exclusive access as
in-kernel open + claim sequence can disturb the existing exclusive
open even before the block layer knows the current open if for another
exclusive access.  Reorganize the interface such that,

* blkdev_get() is extended to include exclusive access management.
  @holder argument is added and, if is @FMODE_EXCL specified, it will
  gain exclusive access atomically w.r.t. other exclusive accesses.

* blkdev_put() is similarly extended.  It now takes @mode argument and
  if @FMODE_EXCL is set, it releases an exclusive access.  Also, when
  the last exclusive claim is released, the holder/slave symlinks are
  removed automatically.

* bd_claim/release() and close_bdev_exclusive() are no longer
  necessary and either made static or removed.

* bd_link_disk_holder() remains the same but bd_unlink_disk_holder()
  is no longer necessary and removed.

* open_bdev_exclusive() becomes a simple wrapper around lookup_bdev()
  and blkdev_get().  It also has an unexpected extra bdev_read_only()
  test which probably should be moved into blkdev_get().

* open_by_devnum() is modified to take @holder argument and pass it to
  blkdev_get().

Most of bdev open/close operations are unified into blkdev_get/put()
and most exclusive accesses are tested atomically at the open time (as
it should).  This cleans up code and removes some, both valid and
invalid, but unnecessary all the same, corner cases.

open_bdev_exclusive() and open_by_devnum() can use further cleanup -
rename to blkdev_get_by_path() and blkdev_get_by_devt() and drop
special features.  Well, let's leave them for another day.

Most conversions are straight-forward.  drbd conversion is a bit more
involved as there was some reordering, but the logic should stay the
same.

Christoph Hellwig ece413f59f xfs: remove incorrect assert in xfs_vm_writepage
In commit 20cb52ebd1, titled
"xfs: simplify xfs_vm_writepage" I added an assert that any !mapped and
uptodate buffers are not dirty.  That asserts turns out to trigger a lot
when running fsx on filesystems with small block sizes.  The reason for
that is that the assert is simply incorrect.  !mapped and uptodate
just mean this buffer covers a hole, and whenever we do a set_page_dirty
we mark all blocks in the page dirty, no matter if they have data or
not.  So remove the assert, and update the comment above the condition
to match reality.

The delayed write buffer split trace currently issues a trace for
every buffer it scans. These buffers are not necessarily queued for
delayed write. Indeed, when buffers are pinned, there can be
thousands of traces of buffers that aren't actually queued for
delayed write and the ones that are are lost in the noise. Move the
trace point to record only buffers that are split out for IO to be
issued on.

Wu Fengguang 1b430beee5 writeback: remove nonblocking/encountered_congestion references
This removes more dead code that was somehow missed by commit 0d99519efe
(writeback: remove unused nonblocking and congestion checks).  There are
no behavior change except for the removal of two entries from one of the
ext4 tracing interface.

The nonblocking checks in ->writepages are no longer used because the
flusher now prefer to block on get_request_wait() than to skip inodes on
IO congestion.  The latter will lead to more seeky IO.

The nonblocking checks in ->writepage are no longer used because it's
redundant with the WB_SYNC_NONE check.

We no long set ->nonblocking in VM page out and page migration, because
a) it's effectively redundant with WB_SYNC_NONE in current code
b) it's old semantic of "Don't get stuck on request queues" is mis-behavior:
   that would skip some dirty inodes on congestion and page out others, which
   is unfair in terms of LRU age.

Inspired by Christoph Hellwig. Thanks!

Instead of always assigning an increasing inode number in new_inode
move the call to assign it into those callers that actually need it.
For now callers that need it is estimated conservatively, that is
the call is added to all filesystems that do not assign an i_ino
by themselves.  For a few more filesystems we can avoid assigning
any inode number given that they aren't user visible, and for others
it could be done lazily when an inode number is actually needed,
but that's left for later patches.

Christoph Hellwig d276734d93 xfs: fix bogus m_maxagi check in xfs_iget
These days inode64 should only control which AGs we allocate new
inodes from, while we still try to support reading all existing
inodes.  To make this actually work the check ontop of xfs_iget
needs to be relaxed to allow inodes in all allocation groups instead
of just those that we allow allocating inodes from.  Note that we
can't simply remove the check - it prevents us from accessing
invalid data when fed invalid inode numbers from NFS or bulkstat.

Christoph Hellwig 1b0407125f xfs: do not use xfs_mod_incore_sb_batch for per-cpu counters
Update the per-cpu counters manually in xfs_trans_unreserve_and_mod_sb
and remove support for per-cpu counters from xfs_mod_incore_sb_batch
to simplify it.  And added benefit is that we don't have to take
m_sb_lock for transactions that only modify per-cpu counters.

Fail the mount if we can't allocate memory for the per-CPU counters.
This is consistent with how we handle everything else in the mount
path and makes the superblock counter modification a lot simpler.

Dave Chinner 50f59e8eed xfs: pack xfs_buf structure more tightly
pahole reports the struct xfs_buf has quite a few holes in it, so
packing the structure better will reduce the size of it by 16 bytes.
Also, move all the fields used in cache lookups into the first
cacheline.

Before on x86_64:

        /* size: 320, cachelines: 5 */
	/* sum members: 298, holes: 6, sum holes: 22 */

After on x86_64:

        /* size: 304, cachelines: 5 */
	/* padding: 6 */
	/* last cacheline: 48 bytes */

Dave Chinner 74f75a0cb7 xfs: convert buffer cache hash to rbtree
The buffer cache hash is showing typical hash scalability problems.
In large scale testing the number of cached items growing far larger
than the hash can efficiently handle. Hence we need to move to a
self-scaling cache indexing mechanism.

I have selected rbtrees for indexing becuse they can have O(log n)
search scalability, and insert and remove cost is not excessive,
even on large trees. Hence we should be able to cache large numbers
of buffers without incurring the excessive cache miss search
penalties that the hash is imposing on us.

To ensure we still have parallel access to the cache, we need
multiple trees. Rather than hashing the buffers by disk address to
select a tree, it seems more sensible to separate trees by typical
access patterns. Most operations use buffers from within a single AG
at a time, so rather than searching lots of different lists,
separate the buffer indexes out into per-AG rbtrees. This means that
searches during metadata operation have a much higher chance of
hitting cache resident nodes, and that updates of the tree are less
likely to disturb trees being accessed on other CPUs doing
independent operations.

Dave Chinner 69b491c214 xfs: serialise inode reclaim within an AG
Memory reclaim via shrinkers has a terrible habit of having N+M
concurrent shrinker executions (N = num CPUs, M = num kswapds) all
trying to shrink the same cache. When the cache they are all working
on is protected by a single spinlock, massive contention an
slowdowns occur.

Wrap the per-ag inode caches with a reclaim mutex to serialise
reclaim access to the AG. This will block concurrent reclaim in each
AG but still allow reclaim to scan multiple AGs concurrently. Allow
shrinkers to move on to the next AG if it can't get the lock, and if
we can't get any AG, then start blocking on locks.

To prevent reclaimers from continually scanning the same inodes in
each AG, add a cursor that tracks where the last reclaim got up to
and start from that point on the next reclaim. This should avoid
only ever scanning a small number of inodes at the satart of each AG
and not making progress. If we have a non-shrinker based reclaim
pass, ignore the cursor and reset it to zero once we are done.

Dave Chinner e3a20c0b02 xfs: batch inode reclaim lookup
Batch and optimise the per-ag inode lookup for reclaim to minimise
scanning overhead. This involves gang lookups on the radix trees to
get multiple inodes during each tree walk, and tighter validation of
what inodes can be reclaimed without blocking befor we take any
locks.

This is based on ideas suggested in a proof-of-concept patch
posted by Nick Piggin.
