      xfs: introduce xfs_buf_submit[_wait] · 595bff75
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      There is a lot of cookie-cutter code that looks like:
      
      	if (shutdown)
      		handle buffer error
      	xfs_buf_iorequest(bp)
      	error = xfs_buf_iowait(bp)
      	if (error)
      		handle buffer error
      
      spread through XFS. There's significant complexity now in
      xfs_buf_iorequest() to specifically handle this sort of synchronous
      IO pattern, but there's all sorts of nasty surprises in different
      error handling code dependent on who owns the buffer references and
      the locks.
      
      Pull this pattern into a single helper, where we can hide all the
      synchronous IO warts and hence make the error handling for all the
      callers much saner. This removes the need for a special extra
      reference to protect IO completion processing, as we can now hold a
      single reference across dispatch and waiting, simplifying the sync
      IO smeantics and error handling.
      
      In doing this, also rename xfs_buf_iorequest to xfs_buf_submit and
      make it explicitly handle on asynchronous IO. This forces all users
      to be switched specifically to one interface or the other and
      removes any ambiguity between how the interfaces are to be used. It
      also means that xfs_buf_iowait() goes away.

      xfs: xfs_buf_ioend and xfs_buf_iodone_work duplicate functionality · e8aaba9a
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      We do some work in xfs_buf_ioend, and some work in
      xfs_buf_iodone_work, but much of that functionality is the same.
      This work can all be done in a single function, leaving
      xfs_buf_iodone just a wrapper to determine if we should execute it
      by workqueue or directly. hence rename xfs_buf_iodone_work to
      xfs_buf_ioend(), and add a new xfs_buf_ioend_async() for places that
      need async processing.

      xfs: force the log before shutting down · a870fe6d
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      When we have marked the filesystem for shutdown, we want to prevent
      any further buffer IO from being submitted. However, we currently
      force the log after marking the filesystem as shut down, hence
      allowing IO to the log *after* we have marked both the filesystem
      and the log as in an error state.
      
      Clean this up by forcing the log before we mark the filesytem with
      an error. This replaces the pure CIL flush that we currently have
      which works around this same issue (i.e the CIL can't be flushed
      once the shutdown flags are set) and hence enables us to clean up
      the logic substantially.

      xfs: catch buffers written without verifiers attached · 400b9d88
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      We recently had a bug where buffers were slipping through log
      recovery without any verifier attached to them. This was resulting
      in on-disk CRC mismatches for valid data. Add some warning code to
      catch this occurrence so that we catch such bugs during development
      rather than not being aware they exist.
      
      Note that we cannot do this verification unconditionally as non-CRC
      filesystems don't always attach verifiers to the buffers being
      written. e.g. during log recovery we cannot identify all the
      different types of buffers correctly on non-CRC filesystems, so we
      can't attach the correct verifiers in all cases and so we don't
      attach any. Hence we don't want on non-CRC filesystems to avoid
      spamming the logs with false indications.

      Reports of a shutdown hang when fsyncing a directory have surfaced,

      number to come up will not get woken and hence stall the shutdown.
      
      Fix this by ensuring we call wake_up_all(&cil->xc_commit_wait) in
      the push abort handling, in the log shutdown code when waking all
      waiters, and adding a shutdown check in the sequence completion wait
      loops to ensure they abort when a wakeup due to a shutdown occurs.

      xfs: unmount does not wait for shutdown during unmount · 9c23eccc
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      And interesting situation can occur if a log IO error occurs during
      the unmount of a filesystem. The cases reported have the same
      signature - the update of the superblock counters fails due to a log
      write IO error:
      
      XFS (dm-16): xfs_do_force_shutdown(0x2) called from line 1170 of file fs/xfs/xfs_log.c.  Return address = 0xffffffffa08a44a1
      XFS (dm-16): Log I/O Error Detected.  Shutting down filesystem
      XFS (dm-16): Unable to update superblock counters. Freespace may not be correct on next mount.
      XFS (dm-16): xfs_log_force: error 5 returned.
      XFS (¿-¿¿¿): Please umount the filesystem and rectify the problem(s)
      
      It can be seen that the last line of output contains a corrupt
      device name - this is because the log and xfs_mount structures have
      already been freed by the time this message is printed. A kernel
      oops closely follows.
      
      The issue is that the shutdown is occurring in a separate IO
      completion thread to the unmount. Once the shutdown processing has
      started and all the iclogs are marked with XLOG_STATE_IOERROR, the
      log shutdown code wakes anyone waiting on a log force so they can
      process the shutdown error. This wakes up the unmount code that
      is doing a synchronous transaction to update the superblock
      counters.
      
      The unmount path now sees all the iclogs are marked with
      XLOG_STATE_IOERROR and so never waits on them again, knowing that if
      it does, there will not be a wakeup trigger for it and we will hang
      the unmount if we do. Hence the unmount runs through all the
      remaining code and frees all the filesystem structures while the
      xlog_iodone() is still processing the shutdown. When the log
      shutdown processing completes, xfs_do_force_shutdown() emits the
      "Please umount the filesystem and rectify the problem(s)" message,
      and xlog_iodone() then aborts all the objects attached to the iclog.
      An iclog that has already been freed....
      
      The real issue here is that there is no serialisation point between
      the log IO and the unmount. We have serialisations points for log
      writes, log forces, reservations, etc, but we don't actually have
      any code that wakes for log IO to fully complete. We do that for all
      other types of object, so why not iclogbufs?
      
      Well, it turns out that we can easily do this. We've got xfs_buf
      handles, and that's what everyone else uses for IO serialisation.
      i.e. bp->b_sema. So, lets hold iclogbufs locked over IO, and only
      release the lock in xlog_iodone() when we are finished with the
      buffer. That way before we tear down the iclog, we can lock and
      unlock the buffer to ensure IO completion has finished completely
      before we tear it down.

      xfs: decouple log and transaction headers · 239880ef

      xfs_trans.h has a dependency on xfs_log.h for a couple of
      structures. Most code that does transactions doesn't need to know
      anything about the log, but this dependency means that they have to
      include xfs_log.h. Decouple the xfs_trans.h and xfs_log.h header
      files and clean up the includes to be in dependency order.
      
      In doing this, remove the direct include of xfs_trans_reserve.h from
      xfs_trans.h so that we remove the dependency between xfs_trans.h and
      xfs_mount.h. Hence the xfs_trans.h include can be moved to the
      indicate the actual dependencies other header files have on it.

      xfs: prevent deadlock trying to cover an active log · 2c6e24ce
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Recent analysis of a deadlocked XFS filesystem from a kernel
      crash dump indicated that the filesystem was stuck waiting for log
      space. The short story of the hang on the RHEL6 kernel is this:
      
      	- the tail of the log is pinned by an inode
      	- the inode has been pushed by the xfsaild
      	- the inode has been flushed to it's backing buffer and is
      	  currently flush locked and hence waiting for backing
      	  buffer IO to complete and remove it from the AIL
      	- the backing buffer is marked for write - it is on the
      	  delayed write queue
      	- the inode buffer has been modified directly and logged
      	  recently due to unlinked inode list modification
      	- the backing buffer is pinned in memory as it is in the
      	  active CIL context.
      	- the xfsbufd won't start buffer writeback because it is
      	  pinned
      	- xfssyncd won't force the log because it sees the log as
      	  needing to be covered and hence wants to issue a dummy
      	  transaction to move the log covering state machine along.
      
      Hence there is no trigger to force the CIL to the log and hence
      unpin the inode buffer and therefore complete the inode IO, remove
      it from the AIL and hence move the tail of the log along, allowing
      transactions to start again.
      
      Mainline kernels also have the same deadlock, though the signature
      is slightly different - the inode buffer never reaches the delayed
      write lists because xfs_buf_item_push() sees that it is pinned and
      hence never adds it to the delayed write list that the xfsaild
      flushes.
      
      There are two possible solutions here. The first is to simply force
      the log before trying to cover the log and so ensure that the CIL is
      emptied before we try to reserve space for the dummy transaction in
      the xfs_log_worker(). While this might work most of the time, it is
      still racy and is no guarantee that we don't get stuck in
      xfs_trans_reserve waiting for log space to come free. Hence it's not
      the best way to solve the problem.
      
      The second solution is to modify xfs_log_need_covered() to be aware
      of the CIL. We only should be attempting to cover the log if there
      is no current activity in the log - covering the log is the process
      of ensuring that the head and tail in the log on disk are identical
      (i.e. the log is clean and at idle). Hence, by definition, if there
      are items in the CIL then the log is not at idle and so we don't
      need to attempt to cover it.
      
      When we don't need to cover the log because it is active or idle, we
      issue a log force from xfs_log_worker() - if the log is idle, then
      this does nothing.  However, if the log is active due to there being
      items in the CIL, it will force the items in the CIL to the log and
      unpin them.
      
      In the case of the above deadlock scenario, instead of
      xfs_log_worker() getting stuck in xfs_trans_reserve() attempting to
      cover the log, it will instead force the log, thereby unpinning the
      inode buffer, allowing IO to be issued and complete and hence
      removing the inode that was pinning the tail of the log from the
      AIL. At that point, everything will start moving along again. i.e.
      the xfs_log_worker turns back into a watchdog that can alleviate
      deadlocks based around pinned items that prevent the tail of the log
      from being moved...

      xfs: Fix a deadlock in xfs_log_commit_cil() code path · 297aa637
      Chandra Seetharaman 提交于
      While testing and rearranging pquota/gquota code, I stumbled
      on a xfs_shutdown() during a mount. But the mount just hung.
      
      Debugged and found that there is a deadlock involving
      &log->l_cilp->xc_ctx_lock.
      
      It is in a code path where &log->l_cilp->xc_ctx_lock is first
      acquired in read mode and some levels down the same semaphore
      is being acquired in write mode causing a deadlock.
      
      This is the stack:
      xfs_log_commit_cil -> acquires &log->l_cilp->xc_ctx_lock in read mode
        xlog_print_tic_res
          xfs_force_shutdown
            xfs_log_force_umount
              xlog_cil_force
                xlog_cil_force_lsn
                  xlog_cil_push_foreground
                    xlog_cil_push - tries to acquire same semaphore in write mode
      
      This patch fixes the deadlock by changing the reason code for
      xfs_force_shutdown in xlog_print_tic_res() to SHUTDOWN_LOG_IO_ERROR.
      
      SHUTDOWN_LOG_IO_ERROR is the right reason code to be set since
      we are in the log path.

      xfs: Introduce ordered log vector support · fd63875c
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      And "ordered log vector" is a log vector that is used for
      tracking a log item through the CIL and into the AIL as part of the
      log checkpointing. These ordered log vectors are special in that
      they are not written to to journal in any way, and are not accounted
      to the checkpoint being written.
      
      The reason for this behaviour is to allow operations to attach items
      to transactions and have them follow the normal transactional
      lifecycle without actually having to write them to the journal. This
      allows logging of items that track high level logical changes and
      writing them to the log, while the physical items being modified
      pass through into the AIL and pin the tail of the log (and therefore
      the logical item in the log) until all the modified items are
      physically written to disk.
      
      IOWs, it allows us to write metadata without physically logging
      every individual change but still maintain the full transactional
      integrity guarantees we currently have w.r.t. crash recovery.
      
      This change modifies some of the CIL item insertion loops, as
      ordered log vectors introduce some new constraints as they don't
      track any data. One advantage of this change is that it combines
      two log vector chain walks into a single pass, so there is less
      overhead in the transaction commit pass as well. It also kills some
      unused code in the log vector walk loop when committing the CIL.

      xfs: fix sparse reported log CRC endian issue · f9668a09
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Not a bug as such, just warning noise from the xlog_cksum()
      returning a __be32 type when it should be returning a __le32 type.

      Because the CRC always returns the calcuation LE format, even on BE
      systems. So rather than always having to byte swap it everywhere and
      have all the force casts and anootations for sparse, it seems simpler to
      just make it a __le32 everywhere....

      xfs: fix direct IO nested transaction deadlock. · 437a255a
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      The direct IO path can do a nested transaction reservation when
      writing past the EOF. The first transaction is the append
      transaction for setting the filesize at IO completion, but we can
      also need a transaction for allocation of blocks. If the log is low
      on space due to reservations and small log, the append transaction
      can be granted after wating for space as the only active transaction
      in the system. This then attempts a reservation for an allocation,
      which there isn't space in the log for, and the reservation sleeps.
      The result is that there is nothing left in the system to wake up
      all the processes waiting for log space to come free.
      
      The stack trace that shows this deadlock is relatively innocuous:
      
       xlog_grant_head_wait
       xlog_grant_head_check
       xfs_log_reserve
       xfs_trans_reserve
       xfs_iomap_write_direct
       __xfs_get_blocks
       xfs_get_blocks_direct
       do_blockdev_direct_IO
       __blockdev_direct_IO
       xfs_vm_direct_IO
       generic_file_direct_write
       xfs_file_dio_aio_writ
       xfs_file_aio_write
       do_sync_write
       vfs_write
      
      This was discovered on a filesystem with a log of only 10MB, and a
      log stripe unit of 256k whih increased the base reservations by
      512k. Hence a allocation transaction requires 1.2MB of log space to
      be available instead of only 260k, and so greatly increased the
      chance that there wouldn't be enough log space available for the
      nested transaction to succeed. The key to reproducing it is this
      mkfs command:
      
      mkfs.xfs -f -d agcount=16,su=256k,sw=12 -l su=256k,size=2560b $SCRATCH_DEV
      
      The test case was a 1000 fsstress processes running with random
      freeze and unfreezes every few seconds. Thanks to Eryu Guan
      (eguan@redhat.com) for writing the test that found this on a system
      with a somewhat unique default configuration....

      xfs: add CRC checks to the log · 0e446be4
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Implement CRCs for the log buffers.  We re-use a field in
      struct xlog_rec_header that was used for a weak checksum of the
      log buffer payload in debug builds before.
      
      The new checksumming uses the crc32c checksum we will use elsewhere
      in XFS, and also protects the record header and addition cycle data.
      
      Due to this there are some interesting changes in xlog_sync, as we
      need to do the cycle wrapping for the split buffer case much earlier,
      as we would touch the buffer after generating the checksum otherwise.
      
      The CRC calculation is always enabled, even for non-CRC filesystems,
      as adding this CRC does not change the log format. On non-CRC
      filesystems, only issue an alert if a CRC mismatch is found and
      allow recovery to continue - this will act as an indicator that
      log recovery problems are a result of log corruption. On CRC enabled
      filesystems, however, log recovery will fail.
      
      Note that existing debug kernels will write a simple checksum value
      to the log, so the first time this is run on a filesystem taht was
      last used on a debug kernel it will through CRC mismatch warning
      errors. These can be ignored.
      
      Initially based on a patch from Dave Chinner, then modified
      significantly by Christoph Hellwig.  Modified again by Dave Chinner
      to get to this version.

      xfs: make buffer read verication an IO completion function · c3f8fc73
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Add a verifier function callback capability to the buffer read
      interfaces.  This will be used by the callers to supply a function
      that verifies the contents of the buffer when it is read from disk.
      This patch does not provide callback functions, but simply modifies
      the interfaces to allow them to be called.
      
      The reason for adding this to the read interfaces is that it is very
      difficult to tell fom the outside is a buffer was just read from
      disk or whether we just pulled it out of cache. Supplying a callbck
      allows the buffer cache to use it's internal knowledge of the buffer
      to execute it only when the buffer is read from disk.
      
      It is intended that the verifier functions will mark the buffer with
      an EFSCORRUPTED error when verification fails. This allows the
      reading context to distinguish a verification error from an IO
      error, and potentially take further actions on the buffer (e.g.
      attempt repair) based on the error reported.

      xfs: only update the last_sync_lsn when a transaction completes · 7e9620f2
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      The log write code stamps each iclog with the current tail LSN in
      the iclog header so that recovery knows where to find the tail of
      thelog once it has found the head. Normally this is taken from the
      first item on the AIL - the log item that corresponds to the oldest
      active item in the log.
      
      The problem is that when the AIL is empty, the tail lsn is dervied
      from the the l_last_sync_lsn, which is the LSN of the last iclog to
      be written to the log. In most cases this doesn't happen, because
      the AIL is rarely empty on an active filesystem. However, when it
      does, it opens up an interesting case when the transaction being
      committed to the iclog spans multiple iclogs.
      
      That is, the first iclog is stamped with the l_last_sync_lsn, and IO
      is issued. Then the next iclog is setup, the changes copied into the
      iclog (takes some time), and then the l_last_sync_lsn is stamped
      into the header and IO is issued. This is still the same
      transaction, so the tail lsn of both iclogs must be the same for log
      recovery to find the entire transaction to be able to replay it.
      
      The problem arises in that the iclog buffer IO completion updates
      the l_last_sync_lsn with it's own LSN. Therefore, If the first iclog
      completes it's IO before the second iclog is filled and has the tail
      lsn stamped in it, it will stamp the LSN of the first iclog into
      it's tail lsn field. If the system fails at this point, log recovery
      will not see a complete transaction, so the transaction will no be
      replayed.
      
      The fix is simple - the l_last_sync_lsn is updated when a iclog
      buffer IO completes, and this is incorrect. The l_last_sync_lsn
      shoul dbe updated when a transaction is completed by a iclog buffer
      IO. That is, only iclog buffers that have transaction commit
      callbacks attached to them should update the l_last_sync_lsn. This
      means that the last_sync_lsn will only move forward when a commit
      record it written, not in the middle of a large transaction that is
      rolling through multiple iclog buffers.

      When unmounting the filesystem, there are lots of operations that
      need to be done in a specific order, and they are spread across
      across a couple of functions. We have to drain the AIL before we
      write the unmount record, and we have to shut down the background
      log work before we do either of them.
      
      But this is all split haphazardly across xfs_unmountfs() and
      xfs_log_unmount(). Move all the AIL flushing and log manipulations
      to xfs_log_unmount() so that the responisbilities of each function
      is clear and the operations they perform obvious.
