The buffer cache hash is showing typical hash scalability problems. In large scale testing the number of cached items growing far larger than the hash can efficiently handle. Hence we need to move to a self-scaling cache indexing mechanism. I have selected rbtrees for indexing becuse they can have O(log n) search scalability, and insert and remove cost is not excessive, even on large trees. Hence we should be able to cache large numbers of buffers without incurring the excessive cache miss search penalties that the hash is imposing on us. To ensure we still have parallel access to the cache, we need multiple trees. Rather than hashing the buffers by disk address to select a tree, it seems more sensible to separate trees by typical access patterns. Most operations use buffers from within a single AG at a time, so rather than searching lots of different lists, separate the buffer indexes out into per-AG rbtrees. This means that searches during metadata operation have a much higher chance of hitting cache resident nodes, and that updates of the tree are less likely to disturb trees being accessed on other CPUs doing independent operations.

Memory reclaim via shrinkers has a terrible habit of having N+M concurrent shrinker executions (N = num CPUs, M = num kswapds) all trying to shrink the same cache. When the cache they are all working on is protected by a single spinlock, massive contention an slowdowns occur. Wrap the per-ag inode caches with a reclaim mutex to serialise reclaim access to the AG. This will block concurrent reclaim in each AG but still allow reclaim to scan multiple AGs concurrently. Allow shrinkers to move on to the next AG if it can't get the lock, and if we can't get any AG, then start blocking on locks. To prevent reclaimers from continually scanning the same inodes in each AG, add a cursor that tracks where the last reclaim got up to and start from that point on the next reclaim. This should avoid only ever scanning a small number of inodes at the satart of each AG and not making progress. If we have a non-shrinker based reclaim pass, ignore the cursor and reset it to zero once we are done. Signed-off-by: NDave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: NAlex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>

Batch and optimise the per-ag inode lookup for reclaim to minimise scanning overhead. This involves gang lookups on the radix trees to get multiple inodes during each tree walk, and tighter validation of what inodes can be reclaimed without blocking befor we take any locks.

Under heavy multi-way parallel create workloads, the VFS struggles to write back all the inodes that have been changed in age order. The bdi flusher thread becomes CPU bound, spending 85% of it's time in the VFS code, mostly traversing the superblock dirty inode list to separate dirty inodes old enough to flush. We already keep an index of all metadata changes in age order - in the AIL - and continued log pressure will do age ordered writeback without any extra overhead at all. If there is no pressure on the log, the xfssyncd will periodically write back metadata in ascending disk address offset order so will be very efficient. Hence we can stop marking VFS inodes dirty during transaction commit or when changing timestamps during transactions. This will keep the inodes in the superblock dirty list to those containing data or unlogged metadata changes. However, the timstamp changes are slightly more complex than this - there are a couple of places that do unlogged updates of the timestamps, and the VFS need to be informed of these. Hence add a new function xfs_trans_ichgtime() for transactional changes, and leave xfs_ichgtime() for the non-transactional changes.

When we start taking a reference to the per-ag for every cached buffer in the system, kernel lockstat profiling on an 8-way create workload shows the mp->m_perag_lock has higher acquisition rates than the inode lock and has significantly more contention. That is, it becomes the highest contended lock in the system. The perag lookup is trivial to convert to lock-less RCU lookups because perag structures never go away. Hence the only thing we need to protect against is tree structure changes during a grow. This can be done simply by replacing the locking in xfs_perag_get() with RCU read locking. This removes the mp->m_perag_lock completely from this path. Signed-off-by: NDave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: NAlex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>

When commiting a transaction, we do a lock CIL state lock round trip on every single log vector we insert into the CIL. This is resulting in the lock being as hot as the inode and dcache locks on 8-way create workloads. Rework the insertion loops to bring the number of lock round trips to one per transaction for log vectors, and one more do the busy extents. Also change the allocation of the log vector buffer not to zero it as we copy over the entire allocated buffer anyway.

The implementation os ->kill_root only differ by either simply zeroing out the now unused buffer in the btree cursor in the inode allocation btree or using xfs_btree_setbuf in the allocation btree. Initially both of them used xfs_btree_setbuf, but the use in the ialloc btree was removed early on because it interacted badly with xfs_trans_binval. In addition to zeroing out the buffer in the cursor xfs_btree_setbuf updates the bc_ra array in the btree cursor, and calls xfs_trans_brelse on the buffer previous occupying the slot. The bc_ra update should be done for the alloc btree updated too, although the lack of it does not cause serious problems. The xfs_trans_brelse call on the other hand is effectively a no-op in the end - it keeps decrementing the bli_recur refcount until it hits zero, and then just skips out because the buffer will always be dirty at this point. So removing it for the allocation btree is just fine. So unify the code and move it to xfs_btree.c. While we're at it also replace the call to xfs_btree_setbuf with a NULL bp argument in xfs_btree_del_cursor with a direct call to xfs_trans_brelse given that the cursor is beeing freed just after this and the state updates are superflous. After this xfs_btree_setbuf is only used with a non-NULL bp argument and can thus be simplified. Signed-off-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: NAlex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>

In xfs_qm_dqflush we know that q_blkno must be initialized already from a previous xfs_qm_dqread. So instead of calling xfs_qm_dqtobp we can simply read the quota buffer directly. This also saves us from a duplicate xfs_qm_dqcheck call check and allows xfs_qm_dqtobp to be simplified now that it is always called for a newly initialized inode. In addition to that properly unwind all locks in xfs_qm_dqflush when xfs_qm_dqcheck fails. This mirrors a similar cleanup in the inode lookup done earlier.

akiphie points out that a.out core-dumps have that odd task struct dumping that was never used and was never really a good idea (it goes back into the mists of history, probably the original core-dumping code). Just remove it. Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write(). It probably doesn't matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ...

That also does the whole fsnotify and write statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ] And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even compile) Reported-by: Nakiphie <akiphie@lavabit.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This switch does not present the usual register interface of a PHY, it presents nothing. So a PHY scan will find nothing - it finds ID's of 0 for each PHY on the attached MII bus. After the FEC driver was changed to use phylib for supporting PHYs it no longer works on this particular board/switch setup. Add code support to use a fixed phy if no PHY is found on the MII bus.
