      Btrfs: cache values for locking extents · 2c64c53d
      Chris Mason 提交于
      Many of the btrfs extent state tree users follow the same pattern.
      They lock an extent range in the tree, do some operation and then
      unlock.
      
      This translates to at least 2 rbtree searches, and maybe more if they
      are doing operations on the extent state tree.  A locked extent
      in the tree isn't going to be merged or changed, and so we can
      safely return the extent state structure as a cached handle.
      
      This changes set_extent_bit to give back a cached handle, and also
      changes both set_extent_bit and clear_extent_bit to use the cached
      handle if it is available.

      Btrfs: reduce CPU usage in the extent_state tree · 1edbb734
      Chris Mason 提交于
      Btrfs is currently mirroring some of the page state bits into
      its extent state tree.  The goal behind this was to use it in supporting
      blocksizes other than the page size.
      
      But, we don't currently support that, and we're using quite a lot of CPU
      on the rb tree and its spin lock.  This commit starts a series of
      cleanups to reduce the amount of work done in the extent state tree as
      part of each IO.
      
      This commit:
      
      * Adds the ability to lock an extent in the state tree and also set
      other bits.  The idea is to do locking and delalloc in one call
      
      * Removes the EXTENT_WRITEBACK and EXTENT_DIRTY bits.  Btrfs is using
      a combination of the page bits and the ordered write code for this
      instead.

      Btrfs: leave btree locks spinning more often · b9473439
      Chris Mason 提交于
      btrfs_mark_buffer dirty would set dirty bits in the extent_io tree
      for the buffers it was dirtying.  This may require a kmalloc and it
      was not atomic.  So, anyone who called btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty had to
      set any btree locks they were holding to blocking first.
      
      This commit changes dirty tracking for extent buffers to just use a flag
      in the extent buffer.  Now that we have one and only one extent buffer
      per page, this can be safely done without losing dirty bits along the way.
      
      This also introduces a path->leave_spinning flag that callers of
      btrfs_search_slot can use to indicate they will properly deal with a
      path returned where all the locks are spinning instead of blocking.
      
      Many of the btree search callers now expect spinning paths,
      resulting in better btree concurrency overall.

      Btrfs: Change btree locking to use explicit blocking points · b4ce94de
      Chris Mason 提交于
      Most of the btrfs metadata operations can be protected by a spinlock,
      but some operations still need to schedule.
      
      So far, btrfs has been using a mutex along with a trylock loop,
      most of the time it is able to avoid going for the full mutex, so
      the trylock loop is a big performance gain.
      
      This commit is step one for getting rid of the blocking locks entirely.
      btrfs_tree_lock takes a spinlock, and the code explicitly switches
      to a blocking lock when it starts an operation that can schedule.
      
      We'll be able get rid of the blocking locks in smaller pieces over time.
      Tracing allows us to find the most common cause of blocking, so we
      can start with the hot spots first.
      
      The basic idea is:
      
      btrfs_tree_lock() returns with the spin lock held
      
      btrfs_set_lock_blocking() sets the EXTENT_BUFFER_BLOCKING bit in
      the extent buffer flags, and then drops the spin lock.  The buffer is
      still considered locked by all of the btrfs code.
      
      If btrfs_tree_lock gets the spinlock but finds the blocking bit set, it drops
      the spin lock and waits on a wait queue for the blocking bit to go away.
      
      Much of the code that needs to set the blocking bit finishes without actually
      blocking a good percentage of the time.  So, an adaptive spin is still
      used against the blocking bit to avoid very high context switch rates.
      
      btrfs_clear_lock_blocking() clears the blocking bit and returns
      with the spinlock held again.
      
      btrfs_tree_unlock() can be called on either blocking or spinning locks,
      it does the right thing based on the blocking bit.
      
      ctree.c has a helper function to set/clear all the locked buffers in a
      path as blocking.

      Btrfs: fix nodatasum handling in balancing code · 17d217fe
      Yan Zheng 提交于
      Checksums on data can be disabled by mount option, so it's
      possible some data extents don't have checksums or have
      invalid checksums. This causes trouble for data relocation.
      This patch contains following things to make data relocation
      work.
      
      1) make nodatasum/nodatacow mount option only affects new
      files. Checksums and COW on data are only controlled by the
      inode flags.
      
      2) check the existence of checksum in the nodatacow checker.
      If checksums exist, force COW the data extent. This ensure that
      checksum for a given block is either valid or does not exist.
      
      3) update data relocation code to properly handle the case
      of checksum missing.

      Btrfs: Optimize compressed writeback and reads · 771ed689
      Chris Mason 提交于
      When reading compressed extents, try to put pages into the page cache
      for any pages covered by the compressed extent that readpages didn't already
      preload.
      
      Add an async work queue to handle transformations at delayed allocation processing
      time.  Right now this is just compression.  The workflow is:
      
      1) Find offsets in the file marked for delayed allocation
      2) Lock the pages
      3) Lock the state bits
      4) Call the async delalloc code
      
      The async delalloc code clears the state lock bits and delalloc bits.  It is
      important this happens before the range goes into the work queue because
      otherwise it might deadlock with other work queue items that try to lock
      those extent bits.
      
      The file pages are compressed, and if the compression doesn't work the
      pages are written back directly.
      
      An ordered work queue is used to make sure the inodes are written in the same
      order that pdflush or writepages sent them down.
      
      This changes extent_write_cache_pages to let the writepage function
      update the wbc nr_written count.

      Btrfs: nuke fs wide allocation mutex V2 · 25179201
      Josef Bacik 提交于
      This patch removes the giant fs_info->alloc_mutex and replaces it with a bunch
      of little locks.
      
      There is now a pinned_mutex, which is used when messing with the pinned_extents
      extent io tree, and the extent_ins_mutex which is used with the pending_del and
      extent_ins extent io trees.
      
      The locking for the extent tree stuff was inspired by a patch that Yan Zheng
      wrote to fix a race condition, I cleaned it up some and changed the locking
      around a little bit, but the idea remains the same.  Basically instead of
      holding the extent_ins_mutex throughout the processing of an extent on the
      extent_ins or pending_del trees, we just hold it while we're searching and when
      we clear the bits on those trees, and lock the extent for the duration of the
      operations on the extent.
      
      Also to keep from getting hung up waiting to lock an extent, I've added a
      try_lock_extent so if we cannot lock the extent, move on to the next one in the
      tree and we'll come back to that one.  I have tested this heavily and it does
      not appear to break anything.  This has to be applied on top of my
      find_free_extent redo patch.
      
      I tested this patch on top of Yan's space reblancing code and it worked fine.
      The only thing that has changed since the last version is I pulled out all my
      debugging stuff, apparently I forgot to run guilt refresh before I sent the
      last patch out.  Thank you,

      Btrfs: Add zlib compression support · c8b97818
      Chris Mason 提交于
      This is a large change for adding compression on reading and writing,
      both for inline and regular extents.  It does some fairly large
      surgery to the writeback paths.
      
      Compression is off by default and enabled by mount -o compress.  Even
      when the -o compress mount option is not used, it is possible to read
      compressed extents off the disk.
      
      If compression for a given set of pages fails to make them smaller, the
      file is flagged to avoid future compression attempts later.
      
      * While finding delalloc extents, the pages are locked before being sent down
      to the delalloc handler.  This allows the delalloc handler to do complex things
      such as cleaning the pages, marking them writeback and starting IO on their
      behalf.
      
      * Inline extents are inserted at delalloc time now.  This allows us to compress
      the data before inserting the inline extent, and it allows us to insert
      an inline extent that spans multiple pages.
      
      * All of the in-memory extent representations (extent_map.c, ordered-data.c etc)
      are changed to record both an in-memory size and an on disk size, as well
      as a flag for compression.
      
      From a disk format point of view, the extent pointers in the file are changed
      to record the on disk size of a given extent and some encoding flags.
      Space in the disk format is allocated for compression encoding, as well
      as encryption and a generic 'other' field.  Neither the encryption or the
      'other' field are currently used.
      
      In order to limit the amount of data read for a single random read in the
      file, the size of a compressed extent is limited to 128k.  This is a
      software only limit, the disk format supports u64 sized compressed extents.
      
      In order to limit the ram consumed while processing extents, the uncompressed
      size of a compressed extent is limited to 256k.  This is a software only limit
      and will be subject to tuning later.
      
      Checksumming is still done on compressed extents, and it is done on the
      uncompressed version of the data.  This way additional encodings can be
      layered on without having to figure out which encoding to checksum.
      
      Compression happens at delalloc time, which is basically singled threaded because
      it is usually done by a single pdflush thread.  This makes it tricky to
      spread the compression load across all the cpus on the box.  We'll have to
      look at parallel pdflush walks of dirty inodes at a later time.
      
      Decompression is hooked into readpages and it does spread across CPUs nicely.

      Btrfs: extent_map and data=ordered fixes for space balancing · 5b21f2ed
      Zheng Yan 提交于
      * Add an EXTENT_BOUNDARY state bit to keep the writepage code
      from merging data extents that are in the process of being
      relocated.  This allows us to do accounting for them properly.
      
      * The balancing code relocates data extents indepdent of the underlying
      inode.  The extent_map code was modified to properly account for
      things moving around (invalidating extent_map caches in the inode).
      
      * Don't take the drop_mutex in the create_subvol ioctl.  It isn't
      required.
      
      * Fix walking of the ordered extent list to avoid races with sys_unlink
      
      * Change the lock ordering rules.  Transaction start goes outside
      the drop_mutex.  This allows btrfs_commit_transaction to directly
      drop the relocation trees.
