2010-04-29xfs: add a shrinker to background inode reclaimDave Chinner
On low memory boxes or those with highmem, kernel can OOM before the background reclaims inodes via xfssyncd. Add a shrinker to run inode reclaim so that it inode reclaim is expedited when memory is low. This is more complex than it needs to be because the VM folk don't want a context added to the shrinker infrastructure. Hence we need to add a global list of XFS mount structures so the shrinker can traverse them. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

2010-03-05xfs: check for more work before sleeping in xfssyncdDave Chinner
xfssyncd processes a queue of work by detaching the queue and then iterating over all the work items. It then sleeps for a time period or until new work comes in. If new work is queued while xfssyncd is actively processing the detached work queue, it will not process that new work until after a sleep timeout or the next work event queued wakes it. Fix this by checking the work queue again before going to sleep.

2010-03-01xfs: fix locking for inode cache radix tree tag updatesChristoph Hellwig
The radix-tree code requires it's users to serialize tag updates against other updates to the tree. While XFS protects tag updates against each other it does not serialize them against updates of the tree contents, which can lead to tag corruption. Fix the inode cache to always take pag_ici_lock in exclusive mode when updating radix tree tags.

2010-02-06xfs: Use delayed write for inodes rather than async V2Dave Chinner
We currently do background inode flush asynchronously, resulting in inodes being written in whatever order the background writeback issues them. Not only that, there are also blocking and non-blocking asynchronous inode flushes, depending on where the flush comes from. This patch completely removes asynchronous inode writeback. It removes all the strange writeback modes and replaces them with either a synchronous flush or a non-blocking delayed write flush. That is, inode flushes will only issue IO directly if they are synchronous, and background flushing may do nothing if the operation would block (e.g. on a pinned inode or buffer lock). Delayed write flushes will now result in the inode buffer sitting in the delwri queue of the buffer cache to be flushed by either an AIL push or by the xfsbufd timing out the buffer. This will allow accumulation of dirty inode buffers in memory and allow optimisation of inode cluster writeback at the xfsbufd level where we have much greater queue depths than the block layer elevators. We will also get adjacent inode cluster buffer IO merging for free when a later patch in the series allows sorting of the delayed write buffers before dispatch. This effectively means that any inode that is written back by background writeback will be seen as flush locked during AIL pushing, and will result in the buffers being pushed from there. This writeback path is currently non-optimal, but the next patch in the series will fix that problem. A side effect of this delayed write mechanism is that background inode reclaim will no longer directly flush inodes, nor can it wait on the flush lock. The result is that inode reclaim must leave the inode in the reclaimable state until it is clean. Hence attempts to reclaim a dirty inode in the background will simply skip the inode until it is clean and this allows other mechanisms (i.e. xfsbufd) to do more optimal writeback of the dirty buffers. As a result, the inode reclaim code has been rewritten so that it no longer relies on the ambiguous return values of xfs_iflush() to determine whether it is safe to reclaim an inode. Portions of this patch are derived from patches by Christoph Hellwig. Version 2: - cleanup reclaim code as suggested by Christoph - log background reclaim inode flush errors - just pass sync flags to xfs_iflush Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
2010-02-06xfs: Make inode reclaim states explicitDave Chinner
A.K.A.: don't rely on xfs_iflush() return value in reclaim We have gradually been moving checks out of the reclaim code because they are duplicated in xfs_iflush(). We've had a history of problems in this area, and many of them stem from the overloading of the return values from xfs_iflush() and interaction with inode flush locking to determine if the inode is safe to reclaim. With the desire to move to delayed write flushing of inodes and non-blocking inode tree reclaim walks, the overloading of the return value of xfs_iflush makes it very difficult to determine the correct thing to do next. This patch explicitly re-adds the checks to the inode reclaim code, removing the reliance on the return value of xfs_iflush() to determine what to do next. It also means that we can clearly document all the inode states that reclaim must handle and hence we can easily see that we handled all the necessary cases. This also removes the need for the xfs_inode_clean() check in xfs_iflush() as all callers now check this first (safely).

2009-12-14xfs: event tracing supportChristoph Hellwig
Convert the old xfs tracing support that could only be used with the out of tree kdb and xfsidbg patches to use the generic event tracer. To use it make sure CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is enabled and then enable all xfs trace channels by: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/enable or alternatively enable single events by just doing the same in one event subdirectory, e.g. echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/xfs_ihold/enable or set more complex filters, etc. In Documentation/trace/events.txt all this is desctribed in more detail. To reads the events do a cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter, allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various spots in XFS. Take a look at http://lwn.net/Articles/346470/ for some examples. Also the btree tracing isn't included at all yet, as it will require additional core tracing features not in mainline yet, I plan to deliver it later.

2009-12-11xfs: simplify inode teardownChristoph Hellwig
Currently the reclaim code for the case where we don't reclaim the final reclaim is overly complicated. We know that the inode is clean but instead of just directly reclaiming the clean inode we go through the whole process of marking the inode reclaimable just to directly reclaim it from the calling context. Besides being overly complicated this introduces a race where iget could recycle an inode between marked reclaimable and actually being reclaimed leading to panics. This patch gets rid of the existing reclaim path, and replaces it with a simple call to xfs_ireclaim if the inode was clean. While we're at it we also use the slightly more lax xfs_inode_clean check we'd use later to determine if we need to flush the inode here. Finally get rid of xfs_reclaim function and place the remaining small bits of reclaim code directly into xfs_fs_destroy_inode.

2009-06-08xfs: split xfs_sync_inodesChristoph Hellwig
xfs_sync_inodes is used to write back either file data or inode metadata. In general we always do these separately, except for one fishy case in xfs_fs_put_super that does both. So separate xfs_sync_inodes into separate xfs_sync_data and xfs_sync_attr functions. In xfs_fs_put_super we first call the data sync and then the attr sync as that was the previous order. The moved log force in that path doesn't make a difference because we will force the log again as part of the real unmount process. The filesystem readonly checks are not performed by the new function but instead moved into the callers, given that most callers alredy have it further up in the stack. Also add debug checks that we do not pass in incorrect flags in the new xfs_sync_data and xfs_sync_attr function and fix the one place that did pass in a wrong flag. Also remove a comment mentioning xfs_sync_inodes that has been incorrect for a while because we always take either the iolock or ilock in the sync path these days.

2009-04-06xfs: make inode flush at ENOSPC synchronousDave Chinner
When we are writing to a single file and hit ENOSPC, we trigger a background flush of the inode and try again. Because we hold page locks and the iolock, the flush won't proceed until after we release these locks. This occurs once we've given up and ENOSPC has been reported. Hence if this one is the only dirty inode in the system, we'll get an ENOSPC prematurely. To fix this, remove the async flush from the allocation routines and move it to the top of the write path where we can do a synchronous flush and retry the write again. Only retry once as a second ENOSPC indicates that we really are ENOSPC. This avoids a page cache deadlock when trying to do this flush synchronously in the allocation layer that was identified by Mikulas Patocka.

Avoid them by checking for the the XFS_INEW() flag once we have a reference on the inode. This flag is cleared once the inode is properly initialised.

2008-10-30[XFS] avoid all reclaimable inodes in xfs_sync_inodes_agDavid Chinner
If we are syncing data in xfs_sync_inodes_ag(), the VFS inode must still be referencable as the dirty data state is carried on the VFS inode. hence if we can't get a reference via igrab(), the inode must be in reclaim which implies that it has no dirty data attached. Leave such inodes to the reclaim code to flush the dirty inode state to disk and so avoid attempting to access the VFS inode when it may not exist in xfs_sync_inodes_ag(). Version 4: o don't reference linux inode until after igrab() succeeds Version 3: o converted unlock/rele to an xfs_iput() call. Version 2: o change igrab logic to be more linear o remove initial reclaimable inode check now that we are using igrab() failure to find reclaimable inodes o assert that igrab failure occurs only on reclaimable inodes o clean up inode locking - only grab the iolock if we are doing a SYNC_DELWRI call and we have a dirty inode.

2008-10-30[XFS] Prevent looping in xfs_sync_inodes_agDavid Chinner
If the last block of the AG has inodes in it and the AG is an exactly power-of-2 size then the last inode in the AG points to the last block in the AG. If we try to find the next inode in the AG by adding one to the inode number, we increment the inode number past the size of the AG. The result is that the macro XFS_INO_TO_AGINO() will strip the AG portion of the inode number and return an inode number of zero. That is, instead of terminating the lookup loop because we hit the inode number went outside the valid range for the AG, the search index returns to zero and we start traversing the radix tree from the start again. This results in an endless loop in xfs_sync_inodes_ag(). Fix it be detecting if the new search index decreases as a result of incrementing the current inode number. That indicate an overflow and hence that we have finished processing the AG so we can terminate the loop.

2008-10-30[XFS] kill deleted inodes listDavid Chinner
Now that the deleted inodes list is unused, kill it. This also removes the i_reclaim list head from the xfs_inode, shrinking it by two pointers.

2008-10-30[XFS] Kill SYNC_CLOSEDavid Chinner
SYNC_CLOSE is only ever used and checked in conjunction with SYNC_WAIT, and this only done in one spot. The only thing this does is make XFS_bflush() calls to the data buftargs. This will happen very shortly afterwards the xfs_sync() call anyway in the unmount path via the xfs_close_devices(), so this code is redundant and can be removed. That only user of SYNC_CLOSE is now gone, so kill the flag completely.
