Reflink should force the log out to disk if the filesystem was mounted with wsync, the same as most other operations in xfs. [Note: XFS_MOUNT_WSYNC is set when the admin mounts the filesystem with either the 'wsync' or 'sync' mount options, which effectively means that we're classifying reflink/dedupe as IO operations and making them synchronous when required.] Fixes: 3fc9f5e4 ("xfs: remove xfs_reflink_remap_range") Signed-off-by:

Qian Cai reports seemingly random buffer read verifier errors during filesystem writeback. This was isolated to a recent patch that factored out some inode cluster freeing code and happened to cast an unsigned inode number type to a signed value. If the inode number value overflows, we can skip marking in-core inodes associated with the underlying buffer stale at the time the physical inodes are freed. If such an inode happens to be dirty, xfsaild will eventually attempt to write it back over non-inode blocks. The invalidation of the underlying inode buffer causes writeback to read the buffer from disk. This fails the read verifier (preventing eventual corruption) if the buffer no longer looks like an inode cluster. Analysis by Dave Chinner. Fix up the helper to use the proper type for inode number values. Fixes: 5806165a ("xfs: factor inode lookup from xfs_ifree_cluster") Reported-by:

A customer reported rcu stalls and softlockup warnings on a computer with many CPU cores and many many more IO threads trying to write to a filesystem that is totally out of space. Subsequent analysis pointed to the many many IO threads calling xfs_flush_inodes -> sync_inodes_sb, which causes a lot of wb_writeback_work to be queued. The writeback worker spends so much time trying to wake the many many threads waiting for writeback completion that it trips the softlockup detector, and (in this case) the system automatically reboots. In addition, they complain that the lengthy xfs_flush_inodes scan traps all of those threads in uninterruptible sleep, which hampers their ability to kill the program or do anything else to escape the situation. If there's thousands of threads trying to write to files on a full filesystem, each of those threads will start separate copies of the inode flush scan. This is kind of pointless since we only need one scan, so rate limit the inode flush. Signed-off-by:

If the inode buffer backing a particular inode is locked, xfs_iflush() returns -EAGAIN and xfs_inode_item_push() skips the inode. It still returns success to xfsaild, however, which bypasses the xfsaild backoff heuristic. Update xfs_inode_item_push() to return locked status if the inode buffer couldn't be locked. Signed-off-by:

A dquot flush currently blocks on the buffer lock for the underlying dquot buffer. In turn, this causes xfsaild to block rather than continue processing other items in the meantime. Update xfs_qm_dqflush() to trylock the buffer, similar to how inode buffers are handled, and return -EAGAIN if the lock fails. Fix up any callers that don't currently handle the error properly.

In commit f467cad9, I added the ability to force a recalculation of the filesystem summary counters if they seemed incorrect. This was done (not entirely correctly) by tweaking the log code to write an unmount record without the UMOUNT_TRANS flag set. At next mount, the log recovery code will fail to find the unmount record and go into recovery, which triggers the recalculation. What actually gets written to the log is what ought to be an unmount record, but without any flags set to indicate what kind of record it actually is. This worked to trigger the recalculation, but we shouldn't write bogus log records when we could simply write nothing.

There's lots of indent in this code which makes it a bit hard to follow. We are also going to completely rework the inode lookup code as part of the inode reclaim rework, so factor out the inode lookup code from the inode cluster freeing code. Based on prototype code from Christoph Hellwig. Signed-off-by:

We currently wake anything waiting on the log tail to move whenever the log item at the tail of the log is removed. Historically this was fine behaviour because there were very few items at any given LSN. But with delayed logging, there may be thousands of items at any given LSN, and we can't move the tail until they are all gone. Hence if we are removing them in near tail-first order, we might be waking up processes waiting on the tail LSN to change (e.g. log space waiters) repeatedly without them being able to make progress. This also occurs with the new sync push waiters, and can result in thousands of spurious wakeups every second when under heavy direct reclaim pressure. To fix this, check that the tail LSN has actually changed on the AIL before triggering wakeups. This will reduce the number of spurious wakeups when doing bulk AIL removal and make this code much more efficient. Signed-off-by:

The XFS inode item slab actually reclaimed by inode shrinker callbacks from the memory reclaim subsystem. These should be marked as reclaimable so the mm subsystem has the full picture of how much memory it can actually reclaim from the XFS slab caches. Signed-off-by:
-
Dave Chinner authored
The buffer cache shrinker frees more than just the xfs_buf slab objects - it also frees the pages attached to the buffers. Make sure the memory reclaim code accounts for this memory being freed correctly, similar to how the inode shrinker accounts for pages freed from the page cache due to mapping invalidation. We also need to make sure that the mm subsystem knows these are reclaimable objects. We provide the memory reclaim subsystem with a a shrinker to reclaim xfs_bufs, so we should really mark the slab that way. We also have a lot of xfs_bufs in a busy system, spread them around like we do inodes. Signed-off-by:

Running metadata intensive workloads, I've been seeing the AIL pushing getting stuck on pinned buffers and triggering log forces. The log force is taking a long time to run because the log IO is getting throttled by wbt_wait() - the block layer writeback throttle. It's being throttled because there is a huge amount of metadata writeback going on which is filling the request queue. IOWs, we have a priority inversion problem here. Mark the log IO bios with REQ_IDLE so they don't get throttled by the block layer writeback throttle. When we are forcing the CIL, we are likely to need to to tens of log IOs, and they are issued as fast as they can be build and IO completed. Hence REQ_IDLE is appropriate - it's an indication that more IO will follow shortly. And because we also set REQ_SYNC, the writeback throttle will now treat log IO the same way it treats direct IO writes - it will not throttle them at all. Hence we solve the priority inversion problem caused by the writeback throttle being unable to distinguish between high priority log IO and background metadata writeback. Signed-off-by:

In certain situations the background CIL push can be indefinitely delayed. While we have workarounds from the obvious cases now, it doesn't solve the underlying issue. This issue is that there is no upper limit on the CIL where we will either force or wait for a background push to start, hence allowing the CIL to grow without bound until it consumes all log space. To fix this, add a new wait queue to the CIL which allows background pushes to wait for the CIL context to be switched out. This happens when the push starts, so it will allow us to block incoming transaction commit completion until the push has started. This will only affect processes that are running modifications, and only when the CIL threshold has been significantly overrun. This has no apparent impact on performance, and doesn't even trigger until over 45 million inodes had been created in a 16-way fsmark test on a 2GB log. That was limiting at 64MB of log space used, so the active CIL size is only about 3% of the total log in that case. The concurrent removal of those files did not trigger the background sleep at all.

The current CIL size aggregation limit is 1/8th the log size. This means for large logs we might be aggregating at least 250MB of dirty objects in memory before the CIL is flushed to the journal. With CIL shadow buffers sitting around, this means the CIL is often consuming >500MB of temporary memory that is all allocated under GFP_NOFS conditions. Flushing the CIL can take some time to do if there is other IO ongoing, and can introduce substantial log force latency by itself. It also pins the memory until the objects are in the AIL and can be written back and reclaimed by shrinkers. Hence this threshold also tends to determine the minimum amount of memory XFS can operate in under heavy modification without triggering the OOM killer. Modify the CIL space limit to prevent such huge amounts of pinned metadata from aggregating. We can have 2MB of log IO in flight at once, so limit aggregation to 16x this size. This threshold was chosen as it little impact on performance (on 16-way fsmark) or log traffic but pins a lot less memory on large logs especially under heavy memory pressure. An aggregation limit of 8x had 5-10% performance degradation and a 50% increase in log throughput for the same workload, so clearly that was too small for highly concurrent workloads on large logs. This was found via trace analysis of AIL behaviour. e.g. insertion from a single CIL flush: xfs_ail_insert: old lsn 0/0 new lsn 1/3033090 type XFS_LI_INODE flags IN_AIL $ grep xfs_ail_insert /mnt/scratch/s.t |grep "new lsn 1/3033090" |wc -l 1721823 $ So there were 1.7 million objects inserted into the AIL from this CIL checkpoint, the first at 2323.392108, the last at 2325.667566 which was the end of the trace (i.e. it hadn't finished). Clearly a major problem. Signed-off-by:

Separate out the unmount record writing from the rest of the ticket and log state futzing necessary to make it work. This is a no-op, just makes the code cleaner and places the unmount record formatting and writing alongside the commit record formatting and writing code.

xfs_log_done() does two separate things. Firstly, it triggers commit records to be written for permanent transactions, and secondly it releases or regrants transaction reservation space. Since delayed logging was introduced, transactions no longer write directly to the log, hence they never have the XLOG_TIC_INITED flag cleared on them. Hence transactions never write commit records to the log and only need to modify reservation space. Split up xfs_log_done into two parts, and only call the parts of the operation needed for the context xfs_log_done() is currently being called from. Signed-off-by:

Commit and unmount records records do not need start records to be written, so rearrange the logic in xlog_write() to remove the need to check for XLOG_TIC_INITED to determine if we should account for the space used by a start record. Signed-off-by:
-
Dave Chinner authored
The xlog_write() function iterates over iclogs until it completes writing all the log vectors passed in. The ticket tracks whether a start record has been written or not, so only the first iclog gets a start record. We only ever pass single use tickets to xlog_write() so we only ever need to write a start record once per xlog_write() call. Hence we don't need to store whether we should write a start record in the ticket as the callers provide all the information we need to determine if a start record should be written. For the moment, we have to ensure that we clear the XLOG_TIC_INITED appropriately so the code in xfs_log_done() still works correctly for committing transactions. (darrick: Note the slight behavior change that we always deduct the size of the op header from the ticket, even for unmount records) Signed-off-by:

The assertion trips when another thread initiates a fsmap request (which uses an empty transaction) after the freezer waited for m_active_trans to hit zero but before the the freezer executes the WARN_ON just prior to calling xfs_log_quiesce. The lengthy delays in freezing happen because the freezer calls xfs_wait_buftarg to clean out the buffer lru list. Meanwhile, the GETFSMAP caller is continuing to grab and release buffers, which means that it can take a very long time for the buffer lru list to empty out. We fix both of these races by calling sb_start_write to obtain freeze protection while using empty transactions for GETFSMAP and for metadata scrubbing. The other two users occur during mount, during which time we cannot fs freeze. Signed-off-by:

If the bio_add_page() call fails, we proceed to write out a partially constructed log buffer. This corrupts the physical log such that log recovery is not possible. Worse, persistent occurrences of this error eventually lead to a BUG_ON() failure in bio_split() as iclogs wrap the end of the physical log, which triggers log recovery on subsequent mount. Rather than warn about writing out a corrupted log buffer, shutdown the fs as is done for any log I/O related error. This preserves the consistency of the physical log such that log recovery succeeds on a subsequent mount. Note that this was observed on a 64k page debug kernel without upstream commit 59bb4798 ("mm, sl[aou]b: guarantee natural alignment for kmalloc(power-of-two)"), which demonstrated frequent iclog bio overflows due to unaligned (slab allocated) iclog data buffers.

The dirattr btree checking code uses the altpath substructure of the dirattr state structure to check the sibling pointers of dir/attr tree blocks. At the end of sibling checks, xfs_da3_path_shift could have changed multiple levels of buffer pointers in the altpath structure. Although we release the leaf level buffer, this isn't enough -- we also need to release the node buffers that are unique to the altpath. Not releasing all of the altpath buffers leaves them locked to the transaction. This is suboptimal because we should release resources when we don't need them anymore. Fix the function to loop all levels of the altpath, and fix the return logic so that we always run the loop. Signed-off-by:

When quotacheck runs, it zeroes all the timer fields in every dquot. Unfortunately, it also does this to the root dquot, which erases any preconfigured grace intervals and warning limits that the administrator may have set. Worse yet, the incore copies of those variables remain set. This cache coherence problem manifests itself as the grace interval mysteriously being reset back to the defaults at the /next/ mount. Fix it by not resetting the root disk dquot's timer and warning fields. Signed-off-by:
