      invalidatepage now accepts range to invalidate and there are two file
      system using jbd2 also implementing punch hole feature which can benefit
      from this. We need to implement the same thing for jbd2 layer in order to

      mm: change invalidatepage prototype to accept length · d47992f8
      Lukas Czerner 提交于
      Currently there is no way to truncate partial page where the end
      truncate point is not at the end of the page. This is because it was not
      needed and the functionality was enough for file system truncate
      operation to work properly. However more file systems now support punch
      hole feature and it can benefit from mm supporting truncating page just
      up to the certain point.
      
      Specifically, with this functionality truncate_inode_pages_range() can
      be changed so it supports truncating partial page at the end of the
      range (currently it will BUG_ON() if 'end' is not at the end of the
      page).
      
      This commit changes the invalidatepage() address space operation
      prototype to accept range to be invalidated and update all the instances
      for it.
      
      We also change the block_invalidatepage() in the same way and actually
      make a use of the new length argument implementing range invalidation.
      
      Actual file system implementations will follow except the file systems
      where the changes are really simple and should not change the behaviour
      in any way .Implementation for truncate_page_range() which will be able
      to accept page unaligned ranges will follow as well.

      ext4: introduce reserved space · 27dd4385
      Lukas Czerner 提交于
      Currently in ENOSPC condition when writing into unwritten space, or
      punching a hole, we might need to split the extent and grow extent tree.
      However since we can not allocate any new metadata blocks we'll have to
      zero out unwritten part of extent or punched out part of extent, or in
      the worst case return ENOSPC even though use actually does not allocate
      any space.
      
      Also in delalloc path we do reserve metadata and data blocks for the
      time we're going to write out, however metadata block reservation is
      very tricky especially since we expect that logical connectivity implies
      physical connectivity, however that might not be the case and hence we
      might end up allocating more metadata blocks than previously reserved.
      So in future, metadata reservation checks should be removed since we can
      not assure that we do not under reserve.
      
      And this is where reserved space comes into the picture. When mounting
      the file system we slice off a little bit of the file system space (2%
      or 4096 clusters, whichever is smaller) which can be then used for the
      cases mentioned above to prevent costly zeroout, or unexpected ENOSPC.
      
      The number of reserved clusters can be set via sysfs, however it can
      never be bigger than number of free clusters in the file system.
      
      Note that this patch fixes the failure of xfstest 274 as expected.

      ext4: implementation of a new ioctl called EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT · 393d1d1d
      Dr. Tilmann Bubeck 提交于
      Add a new ioctl, EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT which swaps i_blocks and
      associated attributes (like i_blocks, i_size, i_flags, ...) from the
      specified inode with inode EXT4_BOOT_LOADER_INO (#5). This is
      typically used to store a boot loader in a secure part of the
      filesystem, where it can't be changed by a normal user by accident.
      The data blocks of the previous boot loader will be associated with
      the given inode.
      
      This usercode program is a simple example of the usage:
      
      int main(int argc, char *argv[])
      {
        int fd;
        int err;
      
        if ( argc != 2 ) {
          printf("usage: ext4-swap-boot-inode FILE-TO-SWAP\n");
          exit(1);
        }
      
        fd = open(argv[1], O_WRONLY);
        if ( fd < 0 ) {
          perror("open");
          exit(1);
        }
      
        err = ioctl(fd, EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT);
        if ( err < 0 ) {
          perror("ioctl");
          exit(1);
        }
      
        close(fd);

      ext4: fix data=journal fast mount/umount hang · 2b405bfa
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      In data=journal mode, if we unmount the file system before a
      transaction has a chance to complete, when the journal inode is being
      evicted, we can end up calling into jbd2_log_wait_commit() for the
      last transaction, after the journalling machinery has been shut down.
      
      Arguably we should adjust ext4_should_journal_data() to return FALSE
      for the journal inode, but the only place it matters is
      ext4_evict_inode(), and so to save a bit of CPU time, and to make the
      patch much more obviously correct by inspection(tm), we'll fix it by
      explicitly not trying to waiting for a journal commit when we are
      evicting the journal inode, since it's guaranteed to never succeed in
      this case.
      
      This can be easily replicated via: 
      
           mount -t ext4 -o data=journal /dev/vdb /vdb ; umount /vdb

      ext4: fix ext4_evict_inode() racing against workqueue processing code · 1ada47d9
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      Commit 84c17543 (ext4: move work from io_end to inode) triggered a
      regression when running xfstest #270 when the file system is mounted
      with dioread_nolock.
      
      The problem is that after ext4_evict_inode() calls ext4_ioend_wait(),
      this guarantees that last io_end structure has been freed, but it does
      not guarantee that the workqueue structure, which was moved into the
      inode by commit 84c17543, is actually finished.  Once
      ext4_flush_completed_IO() calls ext4_free_io_end() on CPU #1, this
      will allow ext4_ioend_wait() to return on CPU #2, at which point the
      evict_inode() codepath can race against the workqueue code on CPU #1
      accessing EXT4_I(inode)->i_unwritten_work to find the next item of
      work to do.
      
      Fix this by calling cancel_work_sync() in ext4_ioend_wait(), which
      will be renamed ext4_ioend_shutdown(), since it is only used by
      ext4_evict_inode().  Also, move the call to ext4_ioend_shutdown()
      until after truncate_inode_pages() and filemap_write_and_wait() are
      called, to make sure all dirty pages have been written back and
      flushed from the page cache first.

      mm: only enforce stable page writes if the backing device requires it · 1d1d1a76
      Darrick J. Wong 提交于
      Create a helper function to check if a backing device requires stable
      page writes and, if so, performs the necessary wait.  Then, make it so
      that all points in the memory manager that handle making pages writable
      use the helper function.  This should provide stable page write support
      to most filesystems, while eliminating unnecessary waiting for devices
      that don't require the feature.
      
      Before this patchset, all filesystems would block, regardless of whether
      or not it was necessary.  ext3 would wait, but still generate occasional
      checksum errors.  The network filesystems were left to do their own
      thing, so they'd wait too.
      
      After this patchset, all the disk filesystems except ext3 and btrfs will
      wait only if the hardware requires it.  ext3 (if necessary) snapshots
      pages instead of blocking, and btrfs provides its own bdi so the mm will
      never wait.  Network filesystems haven't been touched, so either they
      provide their own stable page guarantees or they don't block at all.
      The blocking behavior is back to what it was before 3.0 if you don't
      have a disk requiring stable page writes.
      
      Here's the result of using dbench to test latency on ext2:
      
      3.8.0-rc3:
       Operation      Count    AvgLat    MaxLat
       ----------------------------------------
       WriteX        109347     0.028    59.817
       ReadX         347180     0.004     3.391
       Flush          15514    29.828   287.283
      
      Throughput 57.429 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=287.290 ms
      
      3.8.0-rc3 + patches:
       WriteX        105556     0.029     4.273
       ReadX         335004     0.005     4.112
       Flush          14982    30.540   298.634
      
      Throughput 55.4496 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=298.650 ms
      
      As you can see, the maximum write latency drops considerably with this
      patch enabled.  The other filesystems (ext3/ext4/xfs/btrfs) behave
      similarly, but see the cover letter for those results.

      ext4: lookup block mapping in extent status tree · d100eef2
      Zheng Liu 提交于
      After tracking all extent status, we already have a extent cache in
      memory.  Every time we want to lookup a block mapping, we can first
      try to lookup it in extent status tree to avoid a potential disk I/O.
      
      A new function called ext4_es_lookup_extent is defined to finish this
      work.  When we try to lookup a block mapping, we always call
      ext4_map_blocks and/or ext4_da_map_blocks.  So in these functions we
      first try to lookup a block mapping in extent status tree.
      
      A new flag EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_PUT_HOLE is used in ext4_da_map_blocks
      in order not to put a hole into extent status tree because this hole
      will be converted to delayed extent in the tree immediately.

      ext4: track all extent status in extent status tree · f7fec032
      Zheng Liu 提交于
      By recording the phycisal block and status, extent status tree is able
      to track the status of every extents.  When we call _map_blocks
      functions to lookup an extent or create a new written/unwritten/delayed
      extent, this extent will be inserted into extent status tree.
      
      We don't load all extents from disk in alloc_inode() because it costs
      too much memory, and if a file is opened and closed frequently it will
      takes too much time to load all extent information.  So currently when
      we create/lookup an extent, this extent will be inserted into extent
      status tree.  Hence, the extent status tree may not comprehensively
      contain all of the extents found in the file.
      
      Here a condition we need to take care is that an extent might contains
      unwritten and delayed status simultaneously because an extent is delayed
      allocated and could be allocated by fallocate.  At this time we need to
      keep delayed status because later we need to update delayed reservation
      space using it.

      ext4: let ext4_ext_map_blocks return EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN flag · a25a4e1a
      Zheng Liu 提交于
      This commit lets ext4_ext_map_blocks return EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN flag
      because in later commit ext4_map_blocks needs to use this flag to
      determine the extent status.

      ext4: add physical block and status member into extent status tree · fdc0212e
      Zheng Liu 提交于
      This commit adds two members in extent_status structure to let it record
      physical block and extent status.  Here es_pblk is used to record both
      of them because physical block only has 48 bits.  So extent status could
      be stashed into it so that we can save some memory.  Now written,
      unwritten, delayed and hole are defined as status.
      
      Due to new member is added into extent status tree, all interfaces need
      to be adjusted.

      ext4: grab page before starting transaction handle in write_begin() · 47564bfb
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The grab_cache_page_write_begin() function can potentially sleep for a
      long time, since it may need to do memory allocation which can block
      if the system is under significant memory pressure, and because it may
      be blocked on page writeback.  If it does take a long time to grab the
      page, it's better that we not hold an active jbd2 handle.
      
      So grab a handle on the page first, and _then_ start the transaction
      handle.
      
      This commit fixes the following long transaction handle hold time:
      
      postmark-2917  [000] ....   196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32

      ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start() · 9924a92a
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for
      long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass
      context information for logging purposes.
      
      The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is:
      
         T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
         EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats
         echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter
         echo 1 > $EVENT/enable
      
         ./run-my-fs-benchmark
      
         cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles
      
      This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms.  Having
      longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong
      time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an
      fsync() or an O_SYNC operation.  Here is an example line from the
      trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over
      1.2 seconds:
      
      postmark-2917  [000] ....   196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32 
         tid 570 type 2 line_no 2541 interval 311 sync 0 requested_blocks 1
