This is a regression caused by converting this code from an open coded no fail/no warn reallocation loop to using __GFP_NOFAIL. What we actually need here is kvrealloc(), so that if contiguous page allocation fails we fall back to vmalloc() and we don't get nasty warnings happening in XFS.

This patch prepares scrub to deal with the possibility of tearing down entire AGs by changing the order of resource acquisition to match the rest of the XFS codebase. In other words, scrub now grabs AG resources in order of: perag structure, then AGI/AGF/AGFL buffers, then btree cursors; and releases them in reverse order. This requires us to distinguish xchk_ag_init callers -- some are responding to a user request to check AG metadata, in which case we can return ENOENT to userspace; but other callers have an ondisk reference to an AG that they're trying to cross-reference. In this second case, the lack of an AG means there's ondisk corruption, since ondisk metadata cannot point into nonexistent space. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Now that we defer inode inactivation, we've decoupled the process of unlinking or closing an inode from the process of inactivating it. In theory this should lead to better throughput since we now inactivate the queued inodes in batches instead of one at a time. Unfortunately, one of the primary risks with this decoupling is the loss of rate control feedback between the frontend and background threads. In other words, a rm -rf /* thread can run the system out of memory if it can queue inodes for inactivation and jump to a new CPU faster than the background threads can actually clear the deferred work. The workers can get scheduled off the CPU if they have to do IO, etc. To solve this problem, we configure a shrinker so that it will activate the /second/ time the shrinkers are called. The custom shrinker will queue all percpu deferred inactivation workers immediately and set a flag to force frontend callers who are releasing a vfs inode to wait for the inactivation workers. On my test VM with 560M of RAM and a 2TB filesystem, this seems to solve most of the OOMing problem when deleting 10 million inodes. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

When we're servicing an INUMBERS or BULKSTAT request or running quotacheck, grab an empty transaction so that we can use its inherent recursive buffer locking abilities to detect inode btree cycles without hitting ABBA buffer deadlocks.

In xfs_trans_alloc, if the block reservation call returns ENOSPC, we call xfs_blockgc_free_space with a NULL icwalk structure to try to free space. Each frontend thread that encounters this situation starts its own walk of the inode cache to see if it can find anything, which is wasteful since we don't have any additional selection criteria. For this one common case, create a function that reschedules all pending background work immediately and flushes the workqueue so that the scan can run in parallel. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Other parts of XFS have learned to call xfs_blockgc_free_{space,quota} to try to free speculative preallocations when space is tight. This means that file writes, transaction reservation failures, quota limit enforcement, and the EOFBLOCKS ioctl all call this function to free space when things are tight. Since inode inactivation is now a background task, this means that the filesystem can be hanging on to unlinked but not yet freed space. Add this to the list of things that xfs_blockgc_free_* makes writer threads scan for when they cannot reserve space. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Now that we have made the inactivation of unlinked inodes a background task to increase the throughput of file deletions, we need to be a little more careful about how long of a delay we can tolerate. On a mostly empty filesystem, the risk of the allocator making poor decisions due to fragmentation of the free space on account a lengthy delay in background updates is minimal because there's plenty of space. However, if free space is tight, we want to deallocate unlinked inodes as quickly as possible to avoid fallocate ENOSPC and to give the allocator the best shot at optimal allocations for new writes. Therefore, queue the percpu worker immediately if the filesystem is more than 95% full. This follows the same principle that XFS becomes less aggressive about speculative allocations and lazy cleanup (and more precise about accounting) when nearing full. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Move inode inactivation to background work contexts so that it no longer runs in the context that releases the final reference to an inode. This will allow process work that ends up blocking on inactivation to continue doing work while the filesytem processes the inactivation in the background. A typical demonstration of this is unlinking an inode with lots of extents. The extents are removed during inactivation, so this blocks the process that unlinked the inode from the directory structure. By moving the inactivation to the background process, the userspace applicaiton can keep working (e.g. unlinking the next inode in the directory) while the inactivation work on the previous inode is done by a different CPU. The implementation of the queue is relatively simple. We use a per-cpu lockless linked list (llist) to queue inodes for inactivation without requiring serialisation mechanisms, and a work item to allow the queue to be processed by a CPU bound worker thread. We also keep a count of the queue depth so that we can trigger work after a number of deferred inactivations have been queued. The use of a bound workqueue with a single work depth allows the workqueue to run one work item per CPU. We queue the work item on the CPU we are currently running on, and so this essentially gives us affine per-cpu worker threads for the per-cpu queues. THis maintains the effective CPU affinity that occurs within XFS at the AG level due to all objects in a directory being local to an AG. Hence inactivation work tends to run on the same CPU that last accessed all the objects that inactivation accesses and this maintains hot CPU caches for unlink workloads. A depth of 32 inodes was chosen to match the number of inodes in an inode cluster buffer. This hopefully allows sequential allocation/unlink behaviours to defering inactivation of all the inodes in a single cluster buffer at a time, further helping maintain hot CPU and buffer cache accesses while running inactivations. A hard per-cpu queue throttle of 256 inode has been set to avoid runaway queuing when inodes that take a long to time inactivate are being processed. For example, when unlinking inodes with large numbers of extents that can take a lot of processing to free.

If we don't need to inactivate an inode, we can detach the dquots and move on to reclamation. This isn't strictly required here; it's a preparation patch for deferred inactivation per reviewer request[1] to move the creation of xfs_inode_needs_inactivation into a separate change. Eventually this !need_inactive chunk will turn into the code path for inodes that skip xfs_inactive and go straight to memory reclaim.

The inode inactivation and CIL tracking percpu structures are per-xfs_mount structures. That means when we get a CPU dead notification, we need to then iterate all the per-cpu structure instances to process them. Rather than keeping linked lists of per-cpu structures in each subsystem, add a list of all xfs_mounts that the generic xfs_cpu_dead() function will iterate and call into each subsystem appropriately. This allows us to handle both per-mount and global XFS percpu state from xfs_cpu_dead(), and avoids the need to link subsystem structures that can be easily found from the xfs_mount into their own global lists.

We need to move to per-cpu state for both deferred inode inactivation and CIL tracking, but to do that we need to handle CPUs being removed from the system by the hot-plug code. Introduce generic XFS infrastructure to handle CPU hotplug events that is set up at module init time and torn down at module exit time. Initially, we only need CPU dead notifications, so we only set up a callback for these notifications. The infrastructure can be updated in future for other CPU hotplug state machine notifications easily if ever needed.

Since commit 1b6b26ae ("pipe: fix and clarify pipe write wakeup logic") we have sanitized the pipe write logic, and would only try to wake up readers if they needed it. In particular, if the pipe already had data in it before the write, there was no point in trying to wake up a reader, since any existing readers must have been aware of the pre-existing data already. Doing extraneous wakeups will only cause potential thundering herd problems. However, it turns out that some Android libraries have misused the EPOLL interface, and expected "edge triggered" be to "any new write will trigger it". Even if there was no edge in sight. Quoting Sandeep Patil: "The commit 1b6b26ae ('pipe: fix and clarify pipe write wakeup logic') changed pipe write logic to wakeup readers only if the pipe was empty at the time of write. However, there are libraries that relied upon the older behavior for notification scheme similar to what's described in [1] One such library 'realm-core'[2] is used by numerous Android applications. The library uses a similar notification mechanism as GNU Make but it never drains the pipe until it is full. When Android moved to v5.10 kernel, all applications using this library stopped working. The library has since been fixed[3] but it will be a while before all applications incorporate the updated library" Our regression rule for the kernel is that if applications break from new behavior, it's a regression, even if it was because the application did something patently wrong. Also note the original report [4] by Michal Kerrisk about a test for this epoll behavior - but at that point we didn't know of any actual broken use case. So add the extraneous wakeup, to approximate the old behavior. [ I say "approximate", because the exact old behavior was to do a wakeup not for each write(), but for each pipe buffer chunk that was filled in. The behavior introduced by this change is not that - this is just "every write will cause a wakeup, whether necessary or not", which seems to be sufficient for the broken library use. ] It's worth noting that this adds the extraneous wakeup only for the write side, while the read side still considers the "edge" to be purely about reading enough from the pipe to allow further writes. See commit f467a6a6 ("pipe: fix and clarify pipe read wakeup logic") for the pipe read case, which remains that "only wake up if the pipe was full, and we read something from it".
