Once we decrement transaction->t_updates, if this is the last handle holding the transaction from closing, and once we release the t_handle_lock spinlock, it's possible for the transaction to commit and be released. In practice with normal kernels, this probably won't happen, since the commit happens in a separate kernel thread and it's unlikely this could all happen within the space of a few CPU cycles. On the other hand, with a real-time kernel, this could potentially happen, so save the tid found in transaction->t_tid before we release t_handle_lock. It would require an insane configuration, such as one where the jbd2 thread was set to a very high real-time priority, perhaps because a high priority real-time thread is trying to read or write to a file system. But some people who use real-time kernels have been known to do insane things, including controlling laser-wielding industrial robots. :-) Signed-off-by:"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

Currently if we pass range into ext4_zero_partial_blocks() which covers entire block we would attempt to zero it even though we should only zero unaligned part of the block. Fix this by checking whether the range covers the whole block skip zeroing if so. Signed-off-by:

The function ext4_write_inline_data_end() can return an error. So we need to assign it to a signed integer variable to check for an error return (since copied is an unsigned int). Signed-off-by: -

Both ext3 and ext4 htree_dirblock_to_tree() is just filling the in-core rbtree for use by call_filldir(). All updates of ->f_pos are done by the latter; bumping it here (on error) is obviously wrong - we might very well have it nowhere near the block we'd found an error in. Signed-off-by:

Some of the functions which modify the jbd2 superblock were not updating the checksum before calling jbd2_write_superblock(). Move the call to jbd2_superblock_csum_set() to jbd2_write_superblock(), so that the checksum is calculated consistently. Signed-off-by: -

In ext4 feature inline_data,it use the xattr's space to store the inline data in inode.When we calculate the inline data as the xattr,we add the pad.But in get_max_inline_xattr_value_size() function we count the free space without pad.It cause some contents are moved to a block even if it can be stored in the inode.

Now we maintain an proper in-order LRU list in ext4 to reclaim entries from extent status tree when we are under heavy memory pressure. For keeping this order, a spin lock is used to protect this list. But this lock burns a lot of CPU time. We can use the following steps to trigger it. % cd /dev/shm % dd if=/dev/zero of=ext4-img bs=1M count=2k % mkfs.ext4 ext4-img % mount -t ext4 -o loop ext4-img /mnt % cd /mnt % for ((i=0;i<160;i++)); do truncate -s 64g $i; done % for ((i=0;i<160;i++)); do cp $i /dev/null &; done % perf record -a -g % perf report This commit tries to fix this problem. Now a new member called i_touch_when is added into ext4_inode_info to record the last access time for an inode. Meanwhile we never need to keep a proper in-order LRU list. So this can avoid to burns some CPU time. When we try to reclaim some entries from extent status tree, we use list_sort() to get a proper in-order list. Then we traverse this list to discard some entries. In ext4_sb_info, we use s_es_last_sorted to record the last time of sorting this list. When we traverse the list, we skip the inode that is newer than this time, and move this inode to the tail of LRU list. When the head of the list is newer than s_es_last_sorted, we will sort the LRU list again. In this commit, we break the loop if s_extent_cache_cnt == 0 because that means that all extents in extent status tree have been reclaimed. Meanwhile in this commit, ext4_es_{un}register_shrinker()'s prototype is changed to save a local variable in these functions. Reported-by:Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@intel.com> Signed-off-by:

If memory allocation in ext4_mb_new_group_pa() is failed, it returns error code, ext4_mb_new_preallocation() propages it, but ext4_mb_new_blocks() ignores it. An observed result was: - allocation fail means ext4_mb_new_group_pa() does not update ext4_allocation_context; - ext4_mb_new_blocks() sets ext4_allocation_request->len (ar->len = ac->ac_b_ex.fe_len;) to number of blocks preallocated (512) instead of number of blocks requested (1); - that activates update cycle in ext4_splice_branch(): for (i = 1; i < blks; i++) <-- blks is 512 instead of 1 here *(where->p + i) = cpu_to_le32(current_block++); - it iterates 511 times and corrupts a chunk of memory including inode structure; - page fault happens at EXT4_SB(inode->i_sb) in ext4_mark_inode_dirty(); - system hangs with 'scheduling while atomic' BUG. The patch implements a check for ext4_mb_new_preallocation() error code and handles its failure as if ext4_mb_regular_allocator() fails.

And then, as we are waiting, journal_commit_transaction can run, and if the JBD2_FLUSHED bit is set, then we will also try to take the same checkpoint_mutex. It seems that we need to drop the checkpoint_mutex while sitting in jbd2_log_wait_commit, if we want to guarantee that progress can be made by jbd2_journal_commit_transaction(). There does not seem to be anything preempt-rt specific about this, other then perhaps increasing the odds of it happening. Signed-off-by:

Commit 18888cf0: "ext4: speed up truncate/unlink by not using bforget() unless needed" removed the use of EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET in the most important codepath for file systems using extents, but a similar optimization also can be done for file systems using indirect blocks, and for the two special cases in the ext4 extents code.

For a file systems with a very large number of block groups, if all of the block group bitmaps are in memory and the file system is relatively badly fragmented, it's possible ext4_mb_regular_allocator() to take a long time trying to find a good match. This is especially true if the tuning parameter mb_max_to_scan has been sent to a very large number. So add a cond_resched() to avoid soft lockup warnings and to provide better system responsiveness. For ext4_free_blocks(), if we are deleting a large range of blocks, and data=journal is enabled so that EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET is passed, the loop to call sb_find_get_block() and to call ext4_forget() can take over 10-15 milliseocnds or more. So it's better to add a cond_resched() here a well. Signed-off-by:

Rename ext4_da_writepages() to ext4_writepages() and use it for all modes. We still need to iterate over all the pages in the case of data=journalling, but in the case of nodelalloc/data=ordered (which is what file systems mounted using ext3 backwards compatibility will use) this will allow us to use a much more efficient I/O submission path.

Now that we clear PageWriteback after extent conversion, there's no need to wait for io_end processing in ext4_evict_inode(). Running AIO/DIO keeps file reference until aio_complete() is called so ext4_evict_inode() cannot be called. For io_end structures resulting from buffered IO waiting is happening because we wait for PageWriteback in truncate_inode_pages(). Reviewed-by:

We don't have to wait for extent conversion in ext4_punch_hole() as buffered IO for the punched range has been flushed and waited upon (thus all extent conversions for that range have completed). Also we wait for all DIO to finish using inode_dio_wait() so there cannot be any extent conversions pending due to direct IO. Also remove ext4_flush_unwritten_io() since it's unused now. Reviewed-by:

After removal of ext4_flush_unwritten_io() call, ext4_file_sync() doesn't need i_mutex anymore. Forcing of transaction commits doesn't need i_mutex as there's nothing inode specific in that code apart from grabbing transaction ids from the inode. So remove the lock. Reviewed-by:

Just use the generic function instead of duplicating it. We only need to reshuffle the read-only check a bit (which is there to prevent writing to a filesystem which has been remounted read-only after error I assume). Reviewed-by:

Since PageWriteback bit is now cleared after extents are converted from unwritten to written ones, we have full exclusion of writeback path from truncate (truncate_inode_pages() waits for PageWriteback bits to get cleared on all invalidated pages). Exclusion from DIO path is achieved by inode_dio_wait() call in ext4_setattr(). So there's no need to wait for extent convertion in ext4_truncate() anymore. Reviewed-by:

Make sure extent conversion after DIO happens while i_dio_count is still elevated so that inode_dio_wait() waits until extent conversion is done. This removes the need for explicit waiting for extent conversion in some cases. Reviewed-by:

Currently PageWriteback bit gets cleared from put_io_page() called from ext4_end_bio(). This is somewhat inconvenient as extent tree is not fully updated at that time (unwritten extents are not marked as written) so we cannot read the data back yet. This design was dictated by lock ordering as we cannot start a transaction while PageWriteback bit is set (we could easily deadlock with ext4_da_writepages()). But now that we use transaction reservation for extent conversion, locking issues are solved and we can move PageWriteback bit clearing after extent conversion is done. As a result we can remove wait for unwritten extent conversion from ext4_sync_file() because it already implicitely happens through wait_on_page_writeback(). We implement deferring of PageWriteback clearing by queueing completed bios to appropriate io_end and processing all the pages when io_end is going to be freed instead of at the moment ext4_io_end() is called.

Now that we have extent conversions with reserved transaction, we have to prevent extent conversions without reserved transaction (from DIO code) to block these (as that would effectively void any transaction reservation we did). So split lists, work items, and work queues to reserved and unreserved parts. Reviewed-by:

Later we would like to clear PageWriteback bit only after extent conversion from unwritten to written extents is performed. However it is not possible to start a transaction after PageWriteback is set because that violates lock ordering (and is easy to deadlock). So we have to reserve a transaction before locking pages and sending them for IO and later we use the transaction for extent conversion from ext4_end_io(). Reviewed-by:
