      [XFS] Fix oops in xfs_file_readdir() · 450790a2
      David Chinner 提交于
      When xfs_file_readdir() exactly fills a buffer, it can move it's index
      past the end of the buffer and dereference it even though the result of
      the dereference is never used. On some platforms this causes an oops.

      [XFS] keep i_nlink updated and use proper accessors · 4188c78d
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      To get the read-only bind mounts in -mm to work correctly with XFS we need
      to call the drop_nlink and inc_nlink helpers to monitor the link count.
      Add calls to these to xfs_bumplink and xfs_droplink and stop copying over
      di_nlink to i_nlink in xfs_validate_fields and vn_revalidate.

      [XFS] stop updating inode->i_blocks · 222096ae
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      The VFS doesn't use i_blocks, it's only used by generic_fillattr and the
      generic quota code which XFS doesn't use. In XFS there is one use to check
      whether we have an inline or out of line sumlink, but we can replace that
      with a check of the XFS_IFINLINE inode flag.

      [XFS] Move AIL pushing into it's own thread · 249a8c11
      David Chinner 提交于
      When many hundreds to thousands of threads all try to do simultaneous
      transactions and the log is in a tail-pushing situation (i.e. full), we
      can get multiple threads walking the AIL list and contending on the AIL
      lock.
      
      The AIL push is, in effect, a simple I/O dispatch algorithm complicated by
      the ordering constraints placed on it by the transaction subsystem. It
      really does not need multiple threads to push on it - even when only a
      single CPU is pushing the AIL, it can push the I/O out far faster that
      pretty much any disk subsystem can handle.
      
      So, to avoid contention problems stemming from multiple list walkers, move
      the list walk off into another thread and simply provide a "target" to
      push to. When a thread requires a push, it sets the target and wakes the
      push thread, then goes to sleep waiting for the required amount of space
      to become available in the log.
      
      This mechanism should also be a lot fairer under heavy load as the waiters
      will queue in arrival order, rather than queuing in "who completed a push
      first" order.
      
      Also, by moving the pushing to a separate thread we can do more
      effectively overload detection and prevention as we can keep context from
      loop iteration to loop iteration. That is, we can push only part of the
      list each loop and not have to loop back to the start of the list every
      time we run. This should also help by reducing the number of items we try
      to lock and/or push items that we cannot move.
      
      Note that this patch is not intended to solve the inefficiencies in the
      AIL structure and the associated issues with extremely large list
      contents. That needs to be addresses separately; parallel access would
      cause problems to any new structure as well, so I'm only aiming to isolate
      the structure from unbounded parallelism here.
