xfs: introduce in-memory inode unlink log items

To facilitate future improvements in inode logging and improving
inode cluster buffer locking order consistency, we need a new
mechanism for defering inode cluster buffer modifications during
unlinked list modifications.

The unlinked inode list buffer locking is complex. The unlinked
list is unordered - we add to the tail, remove from where-ever the
inode is in the list. Hence we might need to lock two inode buffers
here (previous inode in list and the one being removed). While we
can order the locking of these buffers correctly within the confines
of the unlinked list, there may be other inodes that need buffer
locking in the same transaction. e.g. O_TMPFILE being linked into a
directory also modifies the directory inode.

Hence we need a mechanism for defering unlinked inode list updates
until a point where we know that all modifications have been made
and all that remains is to lock and modify the cluster buffers.

We can do this by first observing that we serialise unlinked list
modifications by holding the AGI buffer lock. IOWs, the AGI is going
to be locked until the transaction commits any time we modify the
unlinked list. Hence it doesn't matter when in the unlink
transactions that we actually load, lock and modify the inode
cluster buffer.

We add an in-memory unlinked inode log item to defer the inode
cluster buffer update to transaction commit time where it can be
ordered with all the other inode cluster operations that need to be
done. Essentially all we need to do is record the inodes that need
to have their unlinked list pointer updated in a new log item that
we attached to the transaction.

This log item exists purely for the purpose of delaying the update
of the unlinked list pointer until the inode cluster buffer can be
locked in the correct order around the other inode cluster buffers.
It plays no part in the actual commit, and there's no change to
anything that is written to the log. i.e. the inode cluster buffers
still have to be fully logged here (not just ordered) as log
recovery depedends on this to replay mods to the unlinked inode
list.

Hence if we add a "precommit" hook into xfs_trans_commit()
to run a "precommit" operation on these iunlink log items, we can
delay the locking, modification and logging of the inode cluster
buffer until after all other modifications have been made. The
precommit hook reuires us to sort the items that are going to be run
so that we can lock precommit items in the correct order as we
perform the modifications they describe.

To make this unlinked inode list processing simpler and easier to
implement as a log item, we need to change the way we track the
unlinked list in memory. Starting from the observation that an inode
on the unlinked list is pinned in memory by the VFS, we can use the
xfs_inode itself to track the unlinked list. To do this efficiently,
we want the unlinked list to be a double linked list. The problem
here is that we need a list per AGI unlinked list, and there are 64
of these per AGI. The approach taken in this patchset is to shadow
the AGI unlinked list heads in the perag, and link inodes by agino,
hence requiring only 8 extra bytes per inode to track this state.

We can then use the agino pointers for lockless inode cache lookups
to retreive the inode. The aginos in the inode are modified only
under the AGI lock, just like the cluster buffer pointers, so we
don't need any extra locking here.  The i_next_unlinked field tracks
the on-disk value of the unlinked list, and the i_prev_unlinked is a
purely in-memory pointer that enables us to efficiently remove
inodes from the middle of the list.

This results in moving a lot of the unlink modification work into
the precommit operations on the unlink log item. Tracking all the
unlinked inodes in the inodes themselves also gets rid of the
unlinked list reference hash table that is used to track this back
pointer relationship. This greatly simplifies the the unlinked list
modification code, and removes memory allocations in this hot path
to track back pointers. This, overall, slightly reduces the CPU
overhead of the unlink path.

The result of this log item means that we move all the actual
manipulation of objects to be logged out of the iunlink path and
into the iunlink item. This allows for future optimisation of this
mechanism without needing changes to high level unlink path, as
well as making the unlink lock ordering predictable and synchronised
with other operations that may require inode cluster locking.

Now that we have a clean operation to update the di_next_unlinked
field of inode cluster buffers, we can easily defer this operation
to transaction commit time so we can order the inode cluster buffer
locking consistently.

To do this, we introduce a new in-memory log item to track the
unlinked list item modification that we are going to make. This
follows the same observations as the in-memory double linked list
used to track unlinked inodes in that the inodes on the list are
pinned in memory and cannot go away, and hence we can simply
reference them for the duration of the transaction without needing
to take active references or pin them or look them up.

This allows us to pass the xfs_inode to the transaction commit code
along with the modification to be made, and then order the logged
modifications via the ->iop_sort and ->iop_precommit operations
for the new log item type. As this is an in-memory log item, it
doesn't have formatting, CIL or AIL operational hooks - it exists
purely to run the inode unlink modifications and is then removed
from the transaction item list and freed once the precommit
operation has run.

For inodes that are dirty, we have an attached cluster buffer that
we want to use to track the dirty inode through the AIL.
Unfortunately, locking the cluster buffer and adding it to the
transaction when the inode is first logged in a transaction leads to
buffer lock ordering inversions.

The specific problem is ordering against the AGI buffer. When
modifying unlinked lists, the buffer lock order is AGI -> inode
cluster buffer as the AGI buffer lock serialises all access to the
unlinked lists. Unfortunately, functionality like xfs_droplink()
logs the inode before calling xfs_iunlink(), as do various directory
manipulation functions. The inode can be logged way down in the
stack as far as the bmapi routines and hence, without a major
rewrite of lots of APIs there's no way we can avoid the inode being
logged by something until after the AGI has been logged.

As we are going to be using ordered buffers for inode AIL tracking,
there isn't a need to actually lock that buffer against modification
as all the modifications are captured by logging the inode item
itself. Hence we don't actually need to join the cluster buffer into
the transaction until just before it is committed. This means we do
not perturb any of the existing buffer lock orders in transactions,
and the inode cluster buffer is always locked last in a transaction
that doesn't otherwise touch inode cluster buffers.

We do this by introducing a precommit log item method.  This commit
just introduces the mechanism; the inode item implementation is in
followup commits.

The precommit items need to be sorted into consistent order as we
may be locking multiple items here. Hence if we have two dirty
inodes in cluster buffers A and B, and some other transaction has
two separate dirty inodes in the same cluster buffers, locking them
in different orders opens us up to ABBA deadlocks. Hence we sort the
items on the transaction based on the presence of a sort log item
method.

Now we have forwards traversal via the incore inode in place, we now
need to add back pointers to the incore inode to entirely replace
the back reference cache. We use the same lookup semantics and
constraints as for the forwards pointer lookups during unlinks, and
so we can look up any inode in the unlinked list directly and update
the list pointers, forwards or backwards, at any time.

The only wrinkle in converting the unlinked list manipulations to
use in-core previous pointers is that log recovery doesn't have the
incore inode state built up so it can't just read in an inode and
release it to finish off the unlink. Hence we need to modify the
traversal in recovery to read one inode ahead before we
release the inode at the head of the list. This populates the
next->prev relationship sufficient to be able to replay the unlinked
list and hence greatly simplify the runtime code.

This recovery algorithm also requires that we actually remove inodes
from the unlinked list one at a time as background inode
inactivation will result in unlinked list removal racing with the
building of the in-memory unlinked list state. We could serialise
this by holding the AGI buffer lock when constructing the in memory
state, but all that does is lockstep background processing with list
building. It is much simpler to flush the inodegc immediately after
releasing the inode so that it is unlinked immediately and there is
no races present at all.

When an inode is on an unlinked list during normal operation, it is
guaranteed to be pinned in memory as it is either referenced by the
current unlink operation or it has a open file descriptor that
references it and has it pinned in memory. Hence to look up an inode
on the unlinked list, we can do a direct inode cache lookup and
always expect the lookup to succeed.

Add a function to do this lookup based on the agino that we use to
link the chain of unlinked inodes together so we can begin the
conversion the unlinked list manipulations to use in-memory inodes
rather than inode cluster buffers and remove the backref cache.

Use this lookup function to replace the on-disk inode buffer walk
when removing inodes from the unlinked list with an in-core inode
unlinked list walk.

xfs: per-ag conversions for 5.20

This series drives the perag down into the AGI, AGF and AGFL access
routines and unifies the perag structure initialisation with the
high level AG header read functions. This largely replaces the
xfs_mount/agno pair that is passed to all these functions with a
perag, and in most places we already have a perag ready to pass in.
There are a few places where perags need to be grabbed before
reading the AG header buffers - some of these will need to be driven
to higher layers to ensure we can run operations on AGs without
getting stuck part way through waiting on a perag reference.

The latter section of this patchset moves some of the AG geometry
information from the xfs_mount to the xfs_perag, and starts
converting code that requires geometry validation to use a perag
instead of a mount and having to extract the AGNO from the object
location. This also allows us to store the AG size in the perag and
then we can stop having to compare the agno against sb_agcount to
determine if the AG is the last AG and so has a runt size.  This
greatly simplifies some of the type validity checking we do and
substantially reduces the CPU overhead of type validity checking. It
also cuts over 1.2kB out of the binary size.

xfs: improve CIL scalability

This series aims to improve the scalability of XFS transaction
commits on large CPU count machines. My 32p machine hits contention
limits in xlog_cil_commit() at about 700,000 transaction commits a
section. It hits this at 16 thread workloads, and 32 thread
workloads go no faster and just burn CPU on the CIL spinlocks.

This patchset gets rid of spinlocks and global serialisation points
in the xlog_cil_commit() path. It does this by moving to a
combination of per-cpu counters, unordered per-cpu lists and
post-ordered per-cpu lists.

This results in transaction commit rates exceeding 1.4 million
commits/s under unlink certain workloads, and while the log lock
contention is largely gone there is still significant lock
contention in the VFS (dentry cache, inode cache and security layers)
at >600,000 transactions/s that still limit scalability.

The changes to the CIL accounting and behaviour, combined with the
structural changes to xlog_write() in prior patchsets make the
per-cpu restructuring possible and sane. This allows us to move to
precalculated reservation requirements that allow for reservation
stealing to be accounted across multiple CPUs accurately.

That is, instead of trying to account for continuation log opheaders
on a "growth" basis, we pre-calculate how many iclogs we'll need to
write out a maximally sized CIL checkpoint and steal that reserveD
that space one commit at a time until the CIL has a full
reservation. If we ever run a commit when we are already at the hard
limit (because post-throttling) we simply take an extra reservation
from each commit that is run when over the limit. Hence we don't
need to do space usage math in the fast path and so never need to
sum the per-cpu counters in this fast path.

Similarly, per-cpu lists have the problem of ordering - we can't
remove an item from a per-cpu list if we want to move it forward in
the CIL. We solve this problem by using an atomic counter to give
every commit a sequence number that is copied into the log items in
that transaction. Hence relogging items just overwrites the sequence
number in the log item, and does not move it in the per-cpu lists.
Once we reaggregate the per-cpu lists back into a single list in the
CIL push work, we can run it through list-sort() and reorder it back
into a globally ordered list. This costs a bit of CPU time, but now
that the CIL can run multiple works and pipelines properly, this is
not a limiting factor for performance. It does increase fsync
latency when the CIL is full, but workloads issuing large numbers of
fsync()s or sync transactions end up with very small CILs and so the
latency impact or sorting is not measurable for such workloads.

OVerall, this pushes the transaction commit bottleneck out to the
lockless reservation grant head updates. These atomic updates don't
start to be a limiting fact until > 1.5 million transactions/s are
being run, at which point the accounting functions start to show up
in profiles as the highest CPU users. Still, this series doubles
transaction throughput without increasing CPU usage before we get
to that cacheline contention breakdown point...

yet, so it makes sense to pass it the perag rather than pull a
reference from the buffer. This allows callers to be per-ag centric
rather than passing mount/agno pairs everywhere.

Whilst modifying the xfs_reflink_find_shared() function definition,
declare it static and remove the extern declaration as it is an
internal function only these days.

When xlog_sync() rounds off the tail the iclog that is being
flushed, it manually subtracts that space from the grant heads. This
space is actually reserved by the transaction ticket that covers
the xlog_sync() call from xlog_write(), but we don't plumb the
ticket down far enough for it to account for the space consumed in
the current log ticket.

The grant heads are hot, so we really should be accounting this to
the ticket is we can, rather than adding thousands of extra grant
head updates every CIL commit.

Interestingly, this actually indicates a potential log space overrun
can occur when we force the log. By the time that xfs_log_force()
pushes out an active iclog and consumes the roundoff space, the
reservation for that roundoff space has been returned to the grant
heads and is no longer covered by a reservation. In theory the
roundoff added to log force on an already full log could push the
write head past the tail. In practice, the CIL commit that writes to
the log and needs the iclog pushed will have reserved space for
roundoff, so when it releases the ticket there will still be
physical space for the roundoff to be committed to the log, even
though it is no longer reserved. This roundoff won't be enough space
to allow a transaction to be woken if the log is full, so overruns
should not actually occur in practice.

That said, it indicates that we should not release the CIL context
log ticket until after we've released the commit iclog. It also
means that xlog_sync() still needs the direct grant head
manipulation if we don't provide it with a ticket. Log forces are
rare when we are in fast paths running 1.5 million transactions/s
that make the grant heads hot, so let's optimise the hot case and
pass CIL log tickets down to the xlog_sync() code.

Adding a list_sort() call to the CIL push work while the xc_ctx_lock
is held exclusively has resulted in fairly long lock hold times and
that stops all front end transaction commits from making progress.

We can move the sorting out of the xc_ctx_lock if we can transfer
the ordering information to the log vectors as they are detached
from the log items and then we can sort the log vectors.  With these
changes, we can move the list_sort() call to just before we call
xlog_write() when we aren't holding any locks at all.

So that we can remove the cil_lock which is a global serialisation
point. We've already got ordering sorted, so all we need to do is
treat the CIL list like the busy extent list and reconstruct it
before the push starts.

This is what we're trying to avoid:

 -   75.35%     1.83%  [kernel]            [k] xfs_log_commit_cil
    - 46.35% xfs_log_commit_cil

          - 67.30% do_raw_spin_lock
               66.96% __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath

Which happens on a 32p system when running a 32-way 'rm -rf'
workload. After this patch:

-   20.90%     3.23%  [kernel]               [k] xfs_log_commit_cil
   - 17.67% xfs_log_commit_cil

         - 2.12% xfs_buf_item_release
            - 1.03% xfs_buf_unlock

              0.64% __kmalloc
        0.50% xfs_buf_item_size

It kinda looks like the workload is running out of log space all
the time. But all the spinlock contention is gone and the
transaction commit rate has gone from 800k/s to 1.3M/s so the amount
of real work being done has gone up a *lot*.

Before we split the ordered CIL up into per cpu lists, we need a
mechanism to track the order of the items in the CIL. We need to do
this because there are rules around the order in which related items
must physically appear in the log even inside a single checkpoint
transaction.

An example of this is intents - an intent must appear in the log
before it's intent done record so that log recovery can cancel the
intent correctly. If we have these two records misordered in the
CIL, then they will not be recovered correctly by journal replay.

We also will not be able to move items to the tail of
the CIL list when they are relogged, hence the log items will need
some mechanism to allow the correct log item order to be recreated
before we write log items to the hournal.

Hence we need to have a mechanism for recording global order of
transactions in the log items  so that we can recover that order
from un-ordered per-cpu lists.

Do this with a simple monotonic increasing commit counter in the CIL
context. Each log item in the transaction gets stamped with the
current commit order ID before it is added to the CIL. If the item
is already in the CIL, leave it where it is instead of moving it to
the tail of the list and instead sort the list before we start the
push work.

Now that we have the CIL percpu structures in place, implement the
space used counter as a per-cpu counter.

We have to be really careful now about ensuring that the checks and
updates run without arbitrary delays, which means they need to run
with pre-emption disabled. We do this by careful placement of
the get_cpu_ptr/put_cpu_ptr calls to access the per-cpu structures
for that CPU.

We need to be able to reliably detect that the CIL has reached
the hard limit threshold so we can take extra reservations for the
iclog headers when the space used overruns the original reservation.
hence we factor out xlog_cil_over_hard_limit() from
xlog_cil_push_background().

The global CIL space used is an atomic variable that is backed by
per-cpu aggregation to minimise the number of atomic updates we do
to the global state in the fast path. While we are under the soft
limit, we aggregate only when the per-cpu aggregation is over the
proportion of the soft limit assigned to that CPU. This means that
all CPUs can use all but one byte of their aggregation threshold
and we will not go over the soft limit.

Hence once we detect that we've gone over both a per-cpu aggregation
threshold and the soft limit, we know that we have only
exceeded the soft limit by one per-cpu aggregation threshold. Even
if all CPUs hit this at the same time, we can't be over the hard
limit, so we can run an aggregation back into the atomic counter
at this point and still be under the hard limit.

At this point, we will be over the soft limit and hence we'll
aggregate into the global atomic used space directly rather than the
per-cpu counters, hence providing accurate detection of hard limit
excursion for accounting and reservation purposes.

Hence we get the best of both worlds - lockless, scalable per-cpu
fast path plus accurate, atomic detection of hard limit excursion.
