      [XFS] Concurrent Multi-File Data Streams · 2a82b8be
      David Chinner 提交于
      In media spaces, video is often stored in a frame-per-file format. When
      dealing with uncompressed realtime HD video streams in this format, it is
      crucial that files do not get fragmented and that multiple files a placed
      contiguously on disk.
      
      When multiple streams are being ingested and played out at the same time,
      it is critical that the filesystem does not cross the streams and
      interleave them together as this creates seek and readahead cache miss
      latency and prevents both ingest and playout from meeting frame rate
      targets.
      
      This patch set creates a "stream of files" concept into the allocator to
      place all the data from a single stream contiguously on disk so that RAID
      array readahead can be used effectively. Each additional stream gets
      placed in different allocation groups within the filesystem, thereby
      ensuring that we don't cross any streams. When an AG fills up, we select a
      new AG for the stream that is not in use.
      
      The core of the functionality is the stream tracking - each inode that we
      create in a directory needs to be associated with the directories' stream.
      Hence every time we create a file, we look up the directories' stream
      object and associate the new file with that object.
      
      Once we have a stream object for a file, we use the AG that the stream
      object point to for allocations. If we can't allocate in that AG (e.g. it
      is full) we move the entire stream to another AG. Other inodes in the same
      stream are moved to the new AG on their next allocation (i.e. lazy
      update).
      
      Stream objects are kept in a cache and hold a reference on the inode.
      Hence the inode cannot be reclaimed while there is an outstanding stream
      reference. This means that on unlink we need to remove the stream
      association and we also need to flush all the associations on certain
      events that want to reclaim all unreferenced inodes (e.g. filesystem
      freeze).

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
