Currently in ext4 the length of zero-out chunk is set to 7 file system blocks. But if an inode has uninitailized extents from using fallocate to preallocate space, and the workload issues many random writes, this can cause a fragmented extent tree that will unnecessarily grow the extent tree. So create a new sysfs tunable, extent_max_zeroout_kb, which controls the maximum size where blocks will be zeroed out instead of creating a new uninitialized extent. The default of this has been sent to 32kb.

If an inode has more than 4 extents, but then later some of the extents are merged together, we can optimize the file system by moving the extents up into the inode, and discarding the extent tree block. This is important, because if there are a large number of inodes with an external extent tree blocks where the contents could fit in the inode, this can significantly increase the fsck time of the file system.

由 Ashish Sangwan 提交于
Whether to continue removing extents or not is decided by the return value of function ext4_ext_more_to_rm() which checks 2 conditions: a) if there are no more indexes to process. b) if the number of entries are decreased in the header of "depth -1". In case of hole punch, if the last block to be removed is not part of the last extent index than this index will not be deleted, hence the number of valid entries in the extent header of "depth - 1" will remain as it is and ext4_ext_more_to_rm will return 0 although the required blocks are not yet removed. This patch fixes the above mentioned problem as instead of removing the extents from the end of file, it starts removing the blocks from the particular extent from which removing blocks is actually required and continue backward until done.

When truncating a file, we unmap pages from userspace first, as that's usually more efficient than relying, page by page, on the fallback in truncate_inode_page() - particularly if the file is mapped many times. Do the same when punching a hole: 3.4 added truncate_pagecache_range() to do the unmap and trunc, so use it in ext4_ext_punch_hole(), instead of calling truncate_inode_pages_range() directly.

We are going to remove the EOFBLOCKS_FL flag in the future, so this is the first part of the removal. We can not remove it entirely just now, since the e2fsck is still checking for it and it might cause headache to some people. Instead, remove the restrictive checks now and the rest later, when the new e2fsck code is out and common enough. This is also needed because punch hole already breaks the EOFBLOCKS_FL semantics, so it might cause the some troubles. So simply remove it.

This commit rewrites ext4 punch hole implementation to use ext4_ext_remove_space() instead of its home gown way of doing this via ext4_ext_map_blocks(). There are several reasons for changing this. Firstly it is quite non obvious that punching hole needs to ext4_ext_map_blocks() to punch a hole, especially given that this function should map blocks, not unmap it. It also required a lot of new code in ext4_ext_map_blocks(). Secondly the design of it is not very effective. The reason is that we are trying to punch out blocks in ext4_ext_punch_hole() in opposite direction than in ext4_ext_rm_leaf() which causes the ext4_ext_rm_leaf() to iterate through the whole tree from the end to the start to find the requested extent for every extent we are going to punch out. And finally the current implementation does not use the existing code, but bring a lot of new code, which is IMO unnecessary since there already is some infrastructure we can use. Specifically ext4_ext_remove_space(). This commit changes ext4_ext_remove_space() to accept 'end' parameter so we can not only truncate to the end of file, but also remove the space in the middle of the file (punch a hole). Moreover, because the last block to punch out, might be in the middle of the extent, we have to split the extent at 'end + 1' so ext4_ext_rm_leaf() can easily either remove the whole fist part of split extent, or change its size. ext4_ext_remove_space() is then used to actually remove the space (extents) from within the hole, instead of ext4_ext_map_blocks(). Note that this also fix the issue with punch hole, where we would forget to remove empty index blocks from the extent tree, resulting in double free block error and file system corruption. This is simply because we now use different code path, where this problem does not exist. This has been tested with fsx running for several days and xfstests, plus xfstest #251 with '-o discard' run on the loop image (which converts discard requestes into punch hole to the backing file). All of it on 1K and 4K file system block size. Signed-off-by: NLukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: N"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Explicitly test for an extent whose length is zero, and flag that as a corrupted extent. This avoids a kernel BUG_ON assertion failure. Tested: Without this patch, the file system image found in tests/f_ext_zero_len/image.gz in the latest e2fsprogs sources causes a kernel panic.

We found performance regression when using bigalloc with "nodelalloc" (1MB cluster size): 1. mke2fs -C 1048576 -O ^has_journal,bigalloc /dev/sda 2. mount -o nodelalloc /dev/sda /test/ 3. time dd if=/dev/zero of=/test/io bs=1048576 count=1024 The "dd" will cost about 2 seconds to finish, but if we mke2fs without "bigalloc", "dd" will only cost less than 1 second. The reason is: when using ext4 with "nodelalloc", it will call ext4_find_delalloc_cluster() nearly everytime it call ext4_ext_map_blocks(), and ext4_find_delalloc_range() will also scan all pages in cluster because no buffer is "delayed". A cluster has 256 pages (1MB cluster), so it will scan 256 * 256k pags when creating a 1G file. That severely hurts the performance. Therefore, we return immediately from ext4_find_delalloc_range() in nodelalloc mode, since by definition there can't be any delalloc pages.

ext4_ext_insert_extent() (respectively ext4_ext_insert_index()) was using EXT_MAX_EXTENT() (resp. EXT_MAX_INDEX()) to determine how many entries needed to be moved beyond the insertion point. In practice this means that (320 - I) * 24 bytes were memmove()'d when I is the insertion point, rather than (#entries - I) * 24 bytes. This patch uses EXT_LAST_EXTENT() (resp. EXT_LAST_INDEX()) instead to only move existing entries. The code flow is also simplified slightly to highlight similarities and reduce code duplication in the insertion logic. This patch reduces system CPU consumption by over 25% on a 4kB synchronous append DIO write workload when used with the pre-2.6.39 x86_64 memmove() implementation. With the much faster 2.6.39 memmove() implementation we still see a decrease in system CPU usage between 2% and 7%. Note that the ext_debug() output changes with this patch, splitting some log information between entries. Users of the ext_debug() output should note that the "move %d" units changed from reporting the number of bytes moved to reporting the number of entries moved.

This patch introduces a fast path in ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized() for the case when the conversion can be performed by transferring the newly initialized blocks from the uninitialized extent into an adjacent initialized extent. Doing so removes the expensive invocations of memmove() which occur during extent insertion and the subsequent merge. In practice this should be the common case for clients performing append writes into files pre-allocated via fallocate(FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE). In such a workload performed via direct IO and when using a suboptimal implementation of memmove() (x86_64 prior to the 2.6.39 rewrite), this patch reduces kernel CPU consumption by 32%. Two new trace points are added to ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized() to offer visibility into its operations. No exit trace point has been added due to the multiplicity of return points. This can be revisited once the upstream cleanup is backported. Signed-off-by: NEric Gouriou <egouriou@google.com> Signed-off-by: N"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

When we want to convert the unitialized extent in direct write, we can either do it in ext4_end_io_nolock(AIO case) or in ext4_ext_direct_IO(non AIO case) and EXT4_I(inode)->cur_aio_dio is a guard for ext4_ext_map_blocks to find the right case. In e9e3bcec, we mistakenly change it by: - if (io) + if (io && !(io->flag & EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN)) { io->flag = EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN; - else + atomic_inc(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_aiodio_unwritten); + } else ext4_set_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_DIO_UNWRITTEN); So now if we map 2 blocks, and the first one set the EXT_IO_END_UNWRITTEN, the 2nd mapping will set inode state because of the check for the flag. This is wrong. Cc: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NTao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: N"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
