The inode scanner tries to reduce contention on the AGI header buffer lock by grabbing references to consecutive allocated inodes. Batching stops as soon as we encounter an unallocated inode. This is unfortunate because in the worst case performance collapses to the old "one at a time" behavior if every other inode is free. This is correct behavior, but we could do better. Unallocated inodes by definition have nothing to scan, which means the iscan can ignore them as long as someone ensures that the scan data will reflect another thread allocating the inode and adding interesting metadata to that inode. That mechanism is, of course, the live update hooks. Therefore, extend the batching mechanism to track unallocated inodes adjacent to the scan cursor. The _want_live_update predicate can tell the caller's live update hook to incorporate all live updates to what the scanner thinks is an unallocated inode if (after dropping the AGI) some other thread allocates one of those inodes and begins using it. Note that we cannot just copy the ir_free bitmap into the scan cursor because the batching stops if iget says the inode is in an intermediate state (e.g. on the inactivation list) and cannot be igrabbed.

After observing xfs_scrub taking forever to rebuild parent pointers on a pptrs enabled filesystem, I decided to profile what the system was doing. It turns out that when there are a lot of threads trying to scan the filesystem, most of our time is spent contending on AGI buffer locks. Given that we're walking the inobt records anyway, we can often tell ahead of time when there's a bunch of (up to 64) consecutive inodes that we could grab all at once. Do this to amortize the cost of taking the AGI lock across as many inodes as we possibly can. On the author's system this seems to improve parallel throughput from barely one and a half cores to slightly sublinear scaling. The obvious antipattern here of course is where the freemask has every other bit set (e.g. all 0xA's) Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

Online directory and parent repairs on parent-pointer equipped filesystems have shown that starting a large number of parallel iscans causes a lot of AGI buffer contention. Try to reduce this by making it so that iscans scan wrap around the end of the filesystem, and using a rotor to stagger where each scanner begins. Surprisingly, this boosts CPU utilization (on the author's test machines) from effectively single-threaded to 160%. Not great, but see the next patch. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Certain types of filesystem metadata can only be checked by scanning every file in the entire filesystem. Specific examples of this include quota counts, file link counts, and reverse mappings of file extents. Directory and parent pointer reconstruction may also fall into this category. File scanning is much trickier than scanning AG metadata because we have to take inode locks in the same order as the rest of [VX]FS, we can't be holding buffer locks when we do that, and scanning the whole filesystem takes time. Earlier versions of the online repair patchset relied heavily on fsfreeze as a means to quiesce the filesystem so that we could take locks in the proper order without worrying about concurrent updates from other writers. Reviewers of those patches opined that freezing the entire fs to check and repair something was not sufficiently better than unmounting to run fsck offline. I don't agree with that 100%, but the message was clear: find a way to repair things that minimizes the quiet period where nobody can write to the filesystem. Generally, building btree indexes online can be split into two phases: a collection phase where we compute the records that will be put into the new btree; and a construction phase, where we construct the physical btree blocks and persist them. While it's simple to hold resource locks for the entirety of the two phases to ensure that the new index is consistent with the rest of the system, we don't need to hold resource locks during the collection phase if we have a means to receive live updates of other work going on elsewhere in the system. The goal of this patch, then, is to enable online fsck to learn about metadata updates going on in other threads while it constructs a shadow copy of the metadata records to verify or correct the real metadata. To minimize the overhead when online fsck isn't running, we use srcu notifiers because they prioritize fast access to the notifier call chain (particularly when the chain is empty) at a cost to configuring notifiers. Online fsck should be relatively infrequent, so this is acceptable. The intended usage model is fairly simple. Code that modifies a metadata structure of interest should declare a xfs_hook_chain structure in some well defined place, and call xfs_hook_call whenever an update happens. Online fsck code should define a struct notifier_block and use xfs_hook_add to attach the block to the chain, along with a function to be called. This function should synchronize with the fsck scanner to update whatever in-memory data the scanner is collecting. When finished, xfs_hook_del removes the notifier from the list and waits for them all to complete. Originally, I selected srcu notifiers over blocking notifiers to implement live hooks because they seemed to have fewer impacts to scalability. The per-call cost of srcu_notifier_call_chain is higher (19ns) than blocking_notifier_ (4ns) in the single threaded case, but blocking notifiers use an rwsem to stabilize the list. Cacheline bouncing for that rwsem is costly to runtime code when there are a lot of CPUs running regular filesystem operations. If there are no hooks installed, this is a total waste of CPU time. Therefore, I stuck with srcu notifiers, despite trading off single threaded performance for multithreaded performance. I also wasn't thrilled with the very high teardown time for srcu notifiers, since the caller has to wait for the next rcu grace period. This can take a long time if there are a lot of CPUs. Then I discovered the jump label implementation of static keys. Jump labels use kernel code patching to replace a branch with a nop sled when the key is disabled. IOWs, they can eliminate the overhead of _call_chain when there are no hooks enabled. This makes blocking notifiers competitive again -- scrub runs faster because teardown of the chain is a lot cheaper, and runtime code only pays the rwsem locking overhead when scrub is actually running. With jump labels enabled, calls to empty notifier chains are elided from the call sites when there are no hooks registered, which means that the overhead is 0.36ns when fsck is not running. This is perfect for most of the architectures that XFS is expected to run on (e.g. x86, powerpc, arm64, s390x, riscv). For architectures that don't support jump labels (e.g. m68k) the runtime overhead of checking the static key is an atomic counter read. This isn't great, but it's still cheaper than taking a shared rwsem. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

This patch implements a live file scanner for online fsck functions that require the ability to walk a filesystem to gather metadata records and stay informed about metadata changes to files that have already been visited. The iscan structure consists of two inode number cursors: one to track which inode we want to visit next, and a second one to track which inodes have already been visited. This second cursor is key to capturing live updates to files previously scanned while the main thread continues scanning -- any inode greater than this value hasn't been scanned and can go on its way; any other update must be incorporated into the collected data. It is critical for the scanning thraad to hold exclusive access on the inode until after marking the inode visited. This new code is a separate patch from the patchsets adding callers for the sake of enabling the author to move patches around his tree with ease. The intended usage model for this code is roughly: xchk_iscan_start(iscan, 0, 0); while ((error = xchk_iscan_iter(sc, iscan, &ip)) == 1) { xfs_ilock(ip, ...); /* capture inode metadata */ xchk_iscan_mark_visited(iscan, ip); xfs_iunlock(ip, ...); xfs_irele(ip); } xchk_iscan_stop(iscan); if (error) return error; Hook functions for live updates can then do: if (xchk_iscan_want_live_update(...)) /* update the captured inode metadata */ Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

A data corruption problem was reported by CoreOS image builders when using reflink based disk image copies and then converting them to qcow2 images. The converted images failed the conversion verification step, and it was isolated down to the fact that qemu-img uses SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA to find the data it is supposed to copy. The reproducer allowed me to isolate the issue down to a region of the file that had overlapping data and COW fork extents, and the problem was that the COW fork extent was being reported in it's entirity by xfs_seek_iomap_begin() and so skipping over the real data fork extents in that range. This was somewhat hidden by the fact that 'xfs_bmap -vvp' reported all the extents correctly, and reading the file completely (i.e. not using seek to skip holes) would map the file correctly and all the correct data extents are read. Hence the problem is isolated to just the xfs_seek_iomap_begin() implementation. Instrumentation with trace_printk made the problem obvious: we are passing the wrong length to xfs_trim_extent() in xfs_seek_iomap_begin(). We are passing the end_fsb, not the maximum length of the extent we want to trim the map too. Hence the COW extent map never gets trimmed to the start of the next data fork extent, and so the seek code treats the entire COW fork extent as unwritten and skips entirely over the data fork extents in that range.

mrlock was an rwsem wrapper that also recorded whether the lock was held for read or write. Now that we can ask the generic code whether the lock is held for read or write, we can remove this wrapper and use an rwsem directly. As the comment says, we can't use lockdep to assert that the ILOCK is held for write, because we might be in a workqueue, and we aren't able to tell lockdep that we do in fact own the lock.

Unmount and run xfs_repair After analyzing the disk image, it was found that the corruption was triggered by the fact that extent was recorded in both inode datafork and AGF btree blocks. After a long time of reproduction and analysis, we found that the reason of free sapce btree corruption was that the AGF btree was not recovered correctly. Consider the following situation, Checkpoint A and Checkpoint B are in the same record and share the same start LSN1, buf items of same object (AGF btree block) is included in both Checkpoint A and Checkpoint B. If the buf item in Checkpoint A has been recovered and updates metadata LSN permanently, then the buf item in Checkpoint B cannot be recovered, because log recovery skips items with a metadata LSN >= the current LSN of the recovery item. If there is still an inode item in Checkpoint B that records the Extent X, the Extent X will be recorded in both inode datafork and AGF btree block after Checkpoint B is recovered. Such transaction can be seen when allocing enxtent for inode bmap, it record both the addition of extent to the inode extent list and the removing extent from the AGF. |------------Record (LSN1)------------------|---Record (LSN2)---| |-------Checkpoint A----------|----------Checkpoint B-----------| | Buf Item(Extent X) | Buf Item / Inode item(Extent X) | | Extent X is freed | Extent X is allocated | After commit 12818d24 ("xfs: rework log recovery to submit buffers on LSN boundaries") was introduced, we submit buffers on lsn boundaries during log recovery. The above problem can be avoided under normal paths, but it's not guaranteed under abnormal paths. Consider the following process, if an error was encountered after recover buf item in Checkpoint A and before recover buf item in Checkpoint B, buffers that have been added to the buffer_list will still be submitted, this violates the submits rule on lsn boundaries. So buf item in Checkpoint B cannot be recovered on the next mount due to current lsn of transaction equal to metadata lsn on disk. The detailed process of the problem is as follows. First Mount: xlog_do_recovery_pass error = xlog_recover_process xlog_recover_process_data xlog_recover_process_ophdr xlog_recovery_process_trans ... /* recover buf item in Checkpoint A */ xlog_recover_buf_commit_pass2 xlog_recover_do_reg_buffer /* add buffer of agf btree block to buffer_list */ xfs_buf_delwri_queue(bp, buffer_list) ... ==> Encounter read IO error and return /* submit buffers regardless of error */ if (!list_empty(&buffer_list)) xfs_buf_delwri_submit(&buffer_list); <buf items of agf btree block in Checkpoint A recovery success> Second Mount: xlog_do_recovery_pass error = xlog_recover_process xlog_recover_process_data xlog_recover_process_ophdr xlog_recovery_process_trans ... /* recover buf item in Checkpoint B */ xlog_recover_buf_commit_pass2 /* buffer of agf btree block wouldn't added to buffer_list due to lsn equal to current_lsn */ if (XFS_LSN_CMP(lsn, current_lsn) >= 0) goto out_release <buf items of agf btree block in Checkpoint B wouldn't recovery> In order to make sure that submits buffers on lsn boundaries in the abnormal paths, we need to check error status before submit buffers that have been added from the last record processed. If error status exist, buffers in the bufffer_list should not be writen to disk. Canceling the buffers in the buffer_list directly isn't correct, unlike any other place where write list was canceled, these buffers has been initialized by xfs_buf_item_init() during recovery and held by buf item, buf items will not be released in xfs_buf_delwri_cancel(), it's not easy to solve. If the filesystem has been shut down, then delwri list submission will error out all buffers on the list via IO submission/completion and do all the correct cleanup automatically. So shutting down the filesystem could prevents buffers in the bufffer_list from being written to disk.

when a ifdef is used in the below manner, second one could be considered as duplicate. ifdef DEFINE_A ...code block... ifdef DEFINE_A ...code block... endif ...code block... endif In the xfs code two such patterns were seen. Hence removing these ifdefs. No functional change is intended here. It only aims to improve code readability. Reviewed-by: "Darrick J.

While testing a 64k-blocksize filesystem, I noticed that xfs/709 fails to rebuild the inode btree with a bunch of "Corruption remains" messages. It turns out that when the inode chunk size is smaller than a single filesystem block, no block alignments constraints are necessary for inode chunk allocations, and sb_spino_align is zero. Hence we can skip the check. Fixes: dbfbf3bd ("xfs: repair inode btrees") Signed-off-by: "Darrick J.

Noticed by inspection, simple factoring allows the same allocation routine to be used for both transaction and recovery contexts. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: "Darrick J. Wong" <djwong@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Chandan Babu R <chandanbabu@kernel.org>
