      jbd2: fix BH_JWrite setting in checkpointing code · 96c86678
      Jan Kara 提交于
      BH_JWrite bit should be set when buffer is written to the journal. So
      checkpointing shouldn't set this bit when writing out buffer. This didn't
      cause any observable bug since BH_JWrite bit is used only for debugging
      purposes but it's good to have this consistent.

      jbd2: issue cache flush after checkpointing even with internal journal · 79feb521
      Jan Kara 提交于
      When we reach jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail(), there is no guarantee that
      checkpointed buffers are on a stable storage - especially if buffers were
      written out by jbd2_log_do_checkpoint(), they are likely to be only in disk's
      caches. Thus when we update journal superblock effectively removing old
      transaction from journal, this write of superblock can get to stable storage
      before those checkpointed buffers which can result in filesystem corruption
      after a crash. Thus we must unconditionally issue a cache flush before we
      update journal superblock in these cases.
      
      A similar problem can also occur if journal superblock is written only in
      disk's caches, other transaction starts reusing space of the transaction
      cleaned from the log and power failure happens. Subsequent journal replay would
      still try to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already
      overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when
      updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update
      in-memory information only after that.

      jbd2: protect all log tail updates with j_checkpoint_mutex · a78bb11d
      Jan Kara 提交于
      There are some log tail updates that are not protected by j_checkpoint_mutex.
      Some of these are harmless because they happen during startup or shutdown but
      updates in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() and jbd2_journal_flush() can
      really race with other log tail updates (e.g. someone doing
      jbd2_journal_flush() with someone running jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail()). So
      protect all log tail updates with j_checkpoint_mutex.

      jbd2: split updating of journal superblock and marking journal empty · 24bcc89c
      Jan Kara 提交于
      There are three case of updating journal superblock. In the first case, we want
      to mark journal as empty (setting s_sequence to 0), in the second case we want
      to update log tail, in the third case we want to update s_errno. Split these
      cases into separate functions. It makes the code slightly more straightforward
      and later patches will make the distinction even more important.

      ext4: don't release page refs in ext4_end_bio() · b43d17f3
      Curt Wohlgemuth 提交于
      We can clear PageWriteback on each page when the IO
      completes, but we can't release the references on the page
      until we convert any uninitialized extents.
      
      Without this patch, the use of the dioread_nolock mount
      option can break buffered writes, because extents may
      not be converted by the time a subsequent buffered read
      comes in; if the page is not in the page cache, a read
      will return zeros if the extent is still uninitialized.
      
      I tested this with a (temporary) patch that adds a call
      to msleep(1000) at the start of ext4_end_io_work(), to delay
      processing of each DIO-unwritten work queue item.  With this
      msleep(), a simple workload of
      
        fallocate
        write
        fadvise
        read
      
      will fail without this patch, succeeds with it.

      ext4: fix race between sync and completed io work · 491caa43
      Jeff Moyer 提交于
      The following command line will leave the aio-stress process unkillable
      on an ext4 file system (in my case, mounted on /mnt/test):
      
      aio-stress -t 20 -s 10 -O -S -o 2 -I 1000 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.20 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.19 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.18 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.17 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.16 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.15 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.14 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.13 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.12 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.11 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.10 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.9 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.8 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.7 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.6 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.5 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.4 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.3 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.2
      
      This is using the aio-stress program from the xfstests test suite.
      That particular command line tells aio-stress to do random writes to
      20 files from 20 threads (one thread per file).  The files are NOT
      preallocated, so you will get writes to random offsets within the
      file, thus creating holes and extending i_size.  It also opens the
      file with O_DIRECT and O_SYNC.
      
      On to the problem.  When an I/O requires unwritten extent conversion,
      it is queued onto the completed_io_list for the ext4 inode.  Two code
      paths will pull work items from this list.  The first is the
      ext4_end_io_work routine, and the second is ext4_flush_completed_IO,
      which is called via the fsync path (and O_SYNC handling, as well).
      There are two issues I've found in these code paths.  First, if the
      fsync path beats the work routine to a particular I/O, the work
      routine will free the io_end structure!  It does not take into account
      the fact that the io_end may still be in use by the fsync path.  I've
      fixed this issue by adding yet another IO_END flag, indicating that
      the io_end is being processed by the fsync path.
      
      The second problem is that the work routine will make an assignment to
      io->flag outside of the lock.  I have witnessed this result in a hang
      at umount.  Moving the flag setting inside the lock resolved that
      problem.
      
      The problem was introduced by commit b82e384c ("ext4: optimize
      locking for end_io extent conversion"), which first appeared in 3.2.
      As such, the fix should be backported to that release (probably along
      with the unwritten extent conversion race fix).

      ext4: clean up the flags passed to __blockdev_direct_IO · 93ef8541
      Jeff Moyer 提交于
      For extent-based files, you can perform DIO to holes, as mentioned in
      the comments in ext4_ext_direct_IO.  However, that function passes
      DIO_SKIP_HOLES to __blockdev_direct_IO, which is *really* confusing to
      the uninitiated reader.  The key, here, is that the get_block function
      passed in, ext4_get_block_write, completely ignores the create flag
      that is passed to it (the create flag is passed in from the direct I/O
      code, which uses the DIO_SKIP_HOLES flag to determine whether or not
      it should be cleared).
      
      This is a long-winded way of saying that the DIO_SKIP_HOLES flag is
      ultimately ignored.  So let's remove it.

      Users who tried to use the ext4 file system driver is being used for
      the ext2 or ext3 file systems (via the CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23

      recognized by ext2 or ext3 but which have since been removed in ext4.
      
      So teach ext4 to recognize them and give a warning that the mount
      option was removed.
