      jbd2: Remove __GFP_NOFAIL from jbd2 layer · 47def826
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      __GFP_NOFAIL is going away, so add our own retry loop.  Also add
      jbd2__journal_start() and jbd2__journal_restart() which take a gfp
      mask, so that file systems can optionally (re)start transaction
      handles using GFP_KERNEL.  If they do this, then they need to be
      prepared to handle receiving an PTR_ERR(-ENOMEM) error, and be ready
      to reflect that error up to userspace.

      jbd2/ocfs2: Fix block checksumming when a buffer is used in several transactions · 13ceef09
      Jan Kara 提交于
      OCFS2 uses t_commit trigger to compute and store checksum of the just
      committed blocks. When a buffer has b_frozen_data, checksum is computed
      for it instead of b_data but this can result in an old checksum being
      written to the filesystem in the following scenario:
      
      1) transaction1 is opened
      2) handle1 is opened
      3) journal_access(handle1, bh)
          - This sets jh->b_transaction to transaction1
      4) modify(bh)
      5) journal_dirty(handle1, bh)
      6) handle1 is closed
      7) start committing transaction1, opening transaction2
      8) handle2 is opened
      9) journal_access(handle2, bh)
          - This copies off b_frozen_data to make it safe for transaction1 to commit.
            jh->b_next_transaction is set to transaction2.
      10) jbd2_journal_write_metadata() checksums b_frozen_data
      11) the journal correctly writes b_frozen_data to the disk journal
      12) handle2 is closed
          - There was no dirty call for the bh on handle2, so it is never queued for
            any more journal operation
      13) Checkpointing finally happens, and it just spools the bh via normal buffer
      writeback.  This will write b_data, which was never triggered on and thus
      contains a wrong (old) checksum.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by calling the trigger at the moment data is
      frozen for journal commit - i.e., either when b_frozen_data is created by
      do_get_write_access or just before we write a buffer to the log if
      b_frozen_data does not exist. We also rename the trigger to t_frozen as
      that better describes when it is called.

      jbd2: Fix a race between checkpointing code and journal_get_write_access() · f91d1d04
      Jan Kara 提交于
      The following race can happen:
      
       CPU1                          CPU2
                                     checkpointing code checks the buffer, adds
                                       it to an array for writeback
       do_get_write_access()
       ...
       lock_buffer()
       unlock_buffer()
                                     flush_batch() submits the buffer for IO
       __jbd2_journal_file_buffer()
      
      So a buffer under writeout is returned from
      do_get_write_access(). Since the filesystem code relies on the fact
      that journaled buffers cannot be written out, it does not take the
      buffer lock and so it can modify buffer while it is under
      writeout. That can lead to a filesystem corruption if we crash at the
      right moment.
      
      We fix the problem by clearing the buffer dirty bit under buffer_lock
      even if the buffer is on BJ_None list. Actually, we clear the dirty
      bit regardless the list the buffer is in and warn about the fact if
      the buffer is already journalled.

      jbd2: Avoid possible NULL dereference in jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_truncate() · 7f5aa215
      Jan Kara 提交于
      If we race with commit code setting i_transaction to NULL, we could
      possibly dereference it.  Proper locking requires the journal pointer
      (to access journal->j_list_lock), which we don't have.  So we have to
      change the prototype of the function so that filesystem passes us the
      journal pointer.  Also add a more detailed comment about why the
      function jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_truncate() does what it does and
      how it should be used.

      jbd2: Add buffer triggers · e06c8227
      Joel Becker 提交于
      Filesystems often to do compute intensive operation on some
      metadata.  If this operation is repeated many times, it can be very
      expensive.  It would be much nicer if the operation could be performed
      once before a buffer goes to disk.
      
      This adds triggers to jbd2 buffer heads.  Just before writing a metadata
      buffer to the journal, jbd2 will optionally call a commit trigger associated
      with the buffer.  If the journal is aborted, an abort trigger will be
      called on any dirty buffers as they are dropped from pending
      transactions.
      
      ocfs2 will use this feature.
      
      Initially I tried to come up with a more generic trigger that could be
      used for non-buffer-related events like transaction completion.  It
      doesn't tie nicely, because the information a buffer trigger needs
      (specific to a journal_head) isn't the same as what a transaction
      trigger needs (specific to a tranaction_t or perhaps journal_t).  So I
      implemented a buffer set, with the understanding that
      journal/transaction wide triggers should be implemented separately.
      
      There is only one trigger set allowed per buffer.  I can't think of any
      reason to attach more than one set.  Contrast this with a journal or
      transaction in which multiple places may want to watch the entire
      transaction separately.
      
      The trigger sets are considered static allocation from the jbd2
      perspective.  ocfs2 will just have one trigger set per block type,
      setting the same set on every bh of the same type.

      jbd2: improve jbd2 fsync batching · e07f7183
      Josef Bacik 提交于
      This patch removes the static sleep time in favor of a more self
      optimizing approach where we measure the average amount of time it
      takes to commit a transaction to disk and the ammount of time a
      transaction has been running.  If somebody does a sync write or an
      fsync() traditionally we would sleep for 1 jiffies, which depending on
      the value of HZ could be a significant amount of time compared to how
      long it takes to commit a transaction to the underlying storage.  With
      this patch instead of sleeping for a jiffie, we check to see if the
      amount of time this transaction has been running is less than the
      average commit time, and if it is we sleep for the delta using
      schedule_hrtimeout to give us a higher precision sleep time.  This
      greatly benefits high end storage where you could end up sleeping for
      longer than it takes to commit the transaction and therefore sitting
      idle instead of allowing the transaction to be committed by keeping
      the sleep time to a minimum so you are sure to always be doing
      something.

      ext4: Replace hackish ext4_mb_poll_new_transaction with commit callback · 3e624fc7

      The multiblock allocator needs to be able to release blocks (and issue

      blocks is committed.  Previously this was done via a polling mechanism
      when blocks are allocated or freed.  A much better way of doing things

      to be freed directly to the transaction structure.

      jbd2: fix race between jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() and jbd2 commit transaction · 530576bb
      Mingming Cao 提交于
      journal_try_to_free_buffers() could race with jbd commit transaction
      when the later is holding the buffer reference while waiting for the
      data buffer to flush to disk. If the caller of
      journal_try_to_free_buffers() request tries hard to release the buffers,
      it will treat the failure as error and return back to the caller. We
      have seen the directo IO failed due to this race.  Some of the caller of
      releasepage() also expecting the buffer to be dropped when passed with
      GFP_KERNEL mask to the releasepage()->journal_try_to_free_buffers().
      
      With this patch, if the caller is passing the GFP_KERNEL to indicating
      this call could wait, in case of try_to_free_buffers() failed, let's
      waiting for journal_commit_transaction() to finish commit the current
      committing transaction , then try to free those buffers again with
      journal locked.

      jbd2: fix possible journal overflow issues · 1dfc3220
      Josef Bacik 提交于
      There are several cases where the running transaction can get buffers
      added to its BJ_Metadata list which it never dirtied, which makes its
      t_nr_buffers counter end up larger than its t_outstanding_credits
      counter.
      
      This will cause issues when starting new transactions as while we are
      logging buffers we decrement t_outstanding_buffers, so when
      t_outstanding_buffers goes negative, we will report that we need less
      space in the journal than we actually need, so transactions will be
      started even though there may not be enough room for them.  In the worst
      case scenario (which admittedly is almost impossible to reproduce) this
      will result in the journal running out of space.
      
      The fix is to only refile buffers from the committing transaction to the
      running transactions BJ_Modified list when b_modified is set on that
      journal, which is the only way to be sure if the running transaction has
      modified that buffer.
      
      This patch also fixes an accounting error in journal_forget, it is
      possible that we can call journal_forget on a buffer without having
      modified it, only gotten write access to it, so instead of freeing a
      credit, we only do so if the buffer was modified.  The assert will help
      catch if this problem occurs.  Without these two patches I could hit
      this assert within minutes of running postmark, with them this issue no
      longer arises.

      jbd2: fix the way the b_modified flag is cleared · 9fc7c63a
      Josef Bacik 提交于
      Currently at the start of a journal commit we loop through all of the buffers
      on the committing transaction and clear the b_modified flag (the flag that is
      set when a transaction modifies the buffer) under the j_list_lock.
      
      The problem is that everywhere else this flag is modified only under the jbd2
      lock buffer flag, so it will race with a running transaction who could
      potentially set it, and have it unset by the committing transaction.
      
      This is also a big waste, you can have several thousands of buffers that you
      are clearing the modified flag on when you may not need to.  This patch
      removes this code and instead clears the b_modified flag upon entering
      do_get_write_access/journal_get_create_access, so if that transaction does
      indeed use the buffer then it will be accounted for properly, and if it does
      not then we know we didn't use it.
      
      That will be important for the next patch in this series.  Tested thoroughly
      by myself using postmark/iozone/bonnie++.

      [PATCH] jbd2: journal_dirty_data re-check for unmapped buffers · 9b57988d
      Eric Sandeen 提交于
      When running several fsx's and other filesystem stress tests, we found
      cases where an unmapped buffer was still being sent to submit_bh by the
      ext3 dirty data journaling code.
      
      I saw this happen in two ways, both related to another thread doing a
      truncate which would unmap the buffer in question.
      
      Either we would get into journal_dirty_data with a bh which was already
      unmapped (although journal_dirty_data_fn had checked for this earlier, the
      state was not locked at that point), or it would get unmapped in the middle
      of journal_dirty_data when we dropped locks to call sync_dirty_buffer.
      
      By re-checking for mapped state after we've acquired the bh state lock, we
      should avoid these races.  If we find a buffer which is no longer mapped,
      we essentially ignore it, because journal_unmap_buffer has already decided
      that this buffer can go away.
      
      I've also added tracepoints in these two cases, and made a couple other
      tracepoint changes that I found useful in debugging this.

      [PATCH] ext3/4: fix J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0) in journal_stop() · 3e2a532b
      OGAWA Hirofumi 提交于
      A disk generated some I/O error, after it, I hitted
      J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0) in journal_stop().
      
      It seems to happened on ext3_truncate() path from stack trace. Then,
      maybe the following case may trigger J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0).
      
      ext3_truncate()
          -> ext3_free_branches()
              -> ext3_journal_test_restart()
      	    -> ext3_journal_restart()
                      -> journal_restart()
                      transaction->t_updates--;
                      /* another process aborted journal */
                          -> start_this_handle()
      		    returns -EROFS without transaction->t_updates++;
      
          -> ext3_journal_stop()
              -> journal_stop()
      	J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0)
      
      If journal was aborted in middle of journal_restart(), ext3_truncate()
      may trigger J_ASSERT().
