This patch enhances writing dirty meta pages collectively in background. During the file data writes, it'd better avoid to write small dirty meta pages frequently. So let's give a chance to collect a number of dirty meta pages for a while. Signed-off-by:Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

Previously, f2fs doesn't support direct IOs with high performance, which throws every write requests via the buffered write path, resulting in highly performance degradation due to memory opeations like copy_from_user. This patch introduces a new direct IO path in which every write requests are processed by generic blockdev_direct_IO() with enhanced get_block function. The get_data_block() in f2fs handles: 1. if original data blocks are allocates, then give them to blockdev. 2. otherwise, a. preallocate requested block addresses b. do not use extent cache for better performance c. give the block addresses to blockdev This policy induces that: - new allocated data are sequentially written to the disk - updated data are randomly written to the disk. - f2fs gives consistency on its file meta, not file data.

This patch introduces new sysfs entries for users to control the policy of in-place-updates, namely IPU, in f2fs. Sometimes f2fs suffers from performance degradation due to its out-of-place update policy that produces many additional node block writes. If the storage performance is very dependant on the amount of data writes instead of IO patterns, we'd better drop this out-of-place update policy. This patch suggests 5 polcies and their triggering conditions as follows. [sysfs entry name = ipu_policy] 0: F2FS_IPU_FORCE all the time, 1: F2FS_IPU_SSR if SSR mode is activated, 2: F2FS_IPU_UTIL if FS utilization is over threashold, 3: F2FS_IPU_SSR_UTIL if SSR mode is activated and FS utilization is over threashold, 4: F2FS_IPU_DISABLE disable IPU. (=default option) [sysfs entry name = min_ipu_util] This parameter controls the threshold to trigger in-place-updates. The number indicates percentage of the filesystem utilization, and used by F2FS_IPU_UTIL and F2FS_IPU_SSR_UTIL policies. For more details, see need_inplace_update() in segment.h. Signed-off-by: -

This patch introduces f2fs_io_info to mitigate the complex parameter list. struct f2fs_io_info { enum page_type type; /* contains DATA/NODE/META/META_FLUSH */ int rw; /* contains R/RS/W/WS */ int rw_flag; /* contains REQ_META/REQ_PRIO */ } 1. f2fs_write_data_pages - DATA - WRITE_SYNC is set when wbc->WB_SYNC_ALL. 2. sync_node_pages - NODE - WRITE_SYNC all the time 3. sync_meta_pages - META - WRITE_SYNC all the time - REQ_META | REQ_PRIO all the time ** f2fs_submit_merged_bio() handles META_FLUSH. 4. ra_nat_pages, ra_sit_pages, ra_sum_pages - META - READ_SYNC Cc: Fan Li <fanofcode.li@samsung.com> Cc: Changman Lee <cm224.lee@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: -

Previously f2fs submits most of write requests using WRITE_SYNC, but f2fs_write_data_pages submits last write requests by sync_mode flags callers pass. This causes a performance problem since continuous pages with different sync flags can't be merged in cfq IO scheduler(thanks yu chao for pointing it out), and synchronous requests often take more time. This patch makes the following modifies to DATA writebacks: 1. every page will be written back using the sync mode caller pass. 2. only pages with the same sync mode can be merged in one bio request. These changes are restricted to DATA pages.Other types of writebacks are modified To remain synchronous. In my test with tiotest, f2fs sequence write performance is improved by about 7%-10% , and this patch has no obvious impact on other performance tests. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds unlikely() macro into the most of codes. The basic rule is to add that when: - checking unusual errors, - checking page mappings, - and the other unlikely conditions.

As we know, some of our branch condition will rarely be true. So we could add 'unlikely' to let compiler optimize these code, by this way we could drop unneeded 'jump' assemble code to improve performance. change log: o add *unlikely* as many as possible across the whole source files at once suggested by Jaegeuk Kim.

In find_fsync_dnodes() and recover_data(), our flow is like this: ->f2fs_submit_page_bio() -> f2fs_put_page() -> page_cache_release() ---- page->_count declined to zero. ->__free_pages() -> put_page_testzero() ---- page->_count will be declined again. We will get a segment fault in put_page_testzero when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is on, or return MM with a bad page with wrong _count num. So let's just release this page. Signed-off-by:

This patch integrates redundant bio operations on read and write IOs. 1. Move bio-related codes to the top of data.c. 2. Replace f2fs_submit_bio with f2fs_submit_merged_bio, which handles read bios additionally. 3. Introduce __submit_merged_bio to submit the merged bio. 4. Change f2fs_readpage to f2fs_submit_page_bio. 5. Introduce f2fs_submit_page_mbio to integrate previous submit_read_page and submit_write_page. Reviewed-by:

Previously f2fs allocates its own bi_private data structure all the time even though we don't use it. But, can we remove this bi_private allocation? This patch removes such the additional bi_private allocation. 1. Retrieve f2fs_sb_info from its page->mapping->host->i_sb. - This removes the usecases of bi_private in end_io. 2. Use bi_private only when we really need it. - The bi_private is used only when the checkpoint procedure is conducted. - When conducting the checkpoint, f2fs submits a META_FLUSH bio to wait its bio completion. - Since we have no dependancies to remove bi_private now, let's just use bi_private pointer as the completion pointer.

Add new inode flags F2FS_INLINE_DATA and FI_INLINE_DATA to indicate whether the inode has inline data. Inline data makes use of inode block's data indices region to save small file. Currently there are 923 data indices in an inode block. Since inline xattr has made use of the last 50 indices to save its data, there are 873 indices left which can be used for inline data. When FI_INLINE_DATA is set, the layout of inode block's indices region is like below: +-----------------+ | | Reserved. reserve_new_block() will make use of | i_addr[0] | i_addr[0] when we need to reserve a new data block | | to convert inline data into regular one's. |-----------------| | | Used by inline data. A file whose size is less than | i_addr[1~872] | 3488 bytes(~3.4k) and doesn't reserve extra | | blocks by fallocate() can be saved here. |-----------------| | | | i_addr[873~922] | Reserved for inline xattr | | +-----------------+ Signed-off-by:

Change log from v1: o add mark_page_accessed() not to reclaim the nat pages. This patch changes the policy of submitting read bios at ra_nat_pages. Previously, f2fs submits small read bios with block plugging. But, with this patch, f2fs itself merges read bios first and then submits a large bio, which can reduce the bio handling overheads.
