At the start of a transaction we do a btrfs_reserve_metadata_space() and specify how many items we plan on modifying. Then once we've done our modifications and such, just call btrfs_unreserve_metadata_space() for the same number of items we reserved. For keeping track of metadata needed for data I've had to add an extent_io op for when we merge extents. This lets us track space properly when we are doing sequential writes, so we don't end up reserving way more metadata space than what we need. The only place where the metadata space accounting is not done is in the relocation code. This is because Yan is going to be reworking that code in the near future, so running btrfs-vol -b could still possibly result in a ENOSPC related panic. This patch also turns off the metadata_ratio stuff in order to allow users to more efficiently use their disk space. This patch makes it so we track how much metadata we need for an inode's delayed allocation extents by tracking how many extents are currently waiting for allocation. It introduces two new callbacks for the extent_io tree's, merge_extent_hook and split_extent_hook. These help us keep track of when we merge delalloc extents together and split them up. Reservations are handled prior to any actually dirty'ing occurs, and then we unreserve after we dirty. btrfs_unreserve_metadata_for_delalloc() will make the appropriate unreservations as needed based on the number of reservations we currently have and the number of extents we currently have. Doing the reservation outside of doing any of the actual dirty'ing lets us do things like filemap_flush() the inode to try and force delalloc to happen, or as a last resort actually start allocation on all delalloc inodes in the fs. This has survived dbench, fs_mark and an fsx torture test. Signed-off-by: NJosef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Data COW means that whenever we write to a file, we replace any old extent pointers with new ones. There was a window where a readpage might find the old extent pointers on disk and cache them in the extent_map tree in ram in the middle of a given write replacing them. Even though both the readpage and the write had their respective bytes in the file locked, the extent readpage inserts may cover more bytes than it had locked down. This commit closes the race by keeping the new extent pinned in the extent map tree until after the on-disk btree is properly setup with the new extent pointers.

Btrfs is currently mirroring some of the page state bits into its extent state tree. The goal behind this was to use it in supporting blocksizes other than the page size. But, we don't currently support that, and we're using quite a lot of CPU on the rb tree and its spin lock. This commit starts a series of cleanups to reduce the amount of work done in the extent state tree as part of each IO. This commit: * Adds the ability to lock an extent in the state tree and also set other bits. The idea is to do locking and delalloc in one call * Removes the EXTENT_WRITEBACK and EXTENT_DIRTY bits. Btrfs is using a combination of the page bits and the ordered write code for this instead. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

There are two main users of the extent_map tree. The first is regular file inodes, where it is evenly spread between readers and writers. The second is the chunk allocation tree, which maps blocks from logical addresses to phyiscal ones, and it is 99.99% reads. The mapping tree is a point of lock contention during heavy IO workloads, so this commit switches things to a rw lock. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

The Btrfs set_extent_bit call currently searches the rbtree every time it needs to find more extent_state objects to fill the requested operation. This adds a simple test with rb_next to see if the next object in the tree was adjacent to the one we just found. If so, we skip the search and just use the next object.

This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata. Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS. When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time, the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure, and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0. The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out, and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records. When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by one. This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd. But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block. This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref item. We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees. This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow. The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root, and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference on a given block. This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached inodes whose inode numbers within a given range. This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref. The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large number of snapshots. This is a very large commit and was written in a number of pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

The btrfs fallocate call takes an extent lock on the entire range being fallocated, and then runs through insert_reserved_extent on each extent as they are allocated. The problem with this is that btrfs_drop_extents may decide to try and take the same extent lock fallocate was already holding. The solution used here is to push down knowledge of the range that is already locked going into btrfs_drop_extents. It turns out that at least one other caller had the same bug.

Btrfs fallocate was incorrectly starting a transaction with a lock held on the extent_io tree for the file, which could deadlock. Strictly speaking it was using join_transaction which would be safe, but it is better to move the transaction outside of the lock. When preallocated extents are overwritten, btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty was being called on an unlocked buffer. This was triggering an assertion and oops because the lock is supposed to be held. The bug was calling btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty on a leaf after btrfs_del_item had been run. btrfs_del_item takes care of dirtying things, so the solution is a to skip the btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty call in this case.

Btrfs is using WRITE_SYNC_PLUG to send down synchronous IOs with a higher priority. But, the checksumming helper threads prevent it from being fully effective. There are two problems. First, a big queue of pending checksumming will delay the synchronous IO behind other lower priority writes. Second, the checksumming uses an ordered async work queue. The ordering makes sure that IOs are sent to the block layer in the same order they are sent to the checksumming threads. Usually this gives us less seeky IO. But, when we start mixing IO priorities, the lower priority IO can delay the higher priority IO. This patch solves both problems by adding a high priority list to the async helper threads, and a new btrfs_set_work_high_prio(), which is used to make put a new async work item onto the higher priority list. The ordering is still done on high priority IO, but all of the high priority bios are ordered separately from the low priority bios. This ordering is purely an IO optimization, it is not involved in data or metadata integrity. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Renames and truncates are both common ways to replace old data with new data. The filesystem can make an effort to make sure the new data is on disk before actually replacing the old data. This is especially important for rename, which many application use as though it were atomic for both the data and the metadata involved. The current btrfs code will happily replace a file that is fully on disk with one that was just created and still has pending IO. If we crash after transaction commit but before the IO is done, we'll end up replacing a good file with a zero length file. The solution used here is to create a list of inodes that need special ordering and force them to disk before the commit is done. This is similar to the ext3 style data=ordering, except it is only done on selected files. Btrfs is able to get away with this because it does not wait on commits very often, even for fsync (which use a sub-commit). For renames, we order the file when it wasn't already on disk and when it is replacing an existing file. Larger files are sent to filemap_flush right away (before the transaction handle is opened). For truncates, we order if the file goes from non-zero size down to zero size. This is a little different, because at the time of the truncate the file has no dirty bytes to order. But, we flag the inode so that it is added to the ordered list on close (via release method). We also immediately add it to the ordered list of the current transaction so that we can try to flush down any writes the application sneaks in before commit.

The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged without including operations on other files and directories in the FS. It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC. The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules to the tree logging. 1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink, but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory. Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when renaming to a different directory. mkdir foo/some_dir normal commit rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir mkdir foo/some_dir fsync foo/some_dir/some_file The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit 2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during the same transaction. 2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename when the directory they are being removed from was logged. 2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one 3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count of zero and redo the rm -rf mkdir f1/foo normal commit rm -rf f1/foo fsync(f1) The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the ugly details.

btrfs_mark_buffer dirty would set dirty bits in the extent_io tree for the buffers it was dirtying. This may require a kmalloc and it was not atomic. So, anyone who called btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty had to set any btree locks they were holding to blocking first. This commit changes dirty tracking for extent buffers to just use a flag in the extent buffer. Now that we have one and only one extent buffer per page, this can be safely done without losing dirty bits along the way. This also introduces a path->leave_spinning flag that callers of btrfs_search_slot can use to indicate they will properly deal with a path returned where all the locks are spinning instead of blocking. Many of the btree search callers now expect spinning paths, resulting in better btree concurrency overall. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

The extent allocation tree maintains a reference count and full back reference information for every extent allocated in the filesystem. For subvolume and snapshot trees, every time a block goes through COW, the new copy of the block adds a reference on every block it points to. If a btree node points to 150 leaves, then the COW code needs to go and add backrefs on 150 different extents, which might be spread all over the extent allocation tree. These updates currently happen during btrfs_cow_block, and most COWs happen during btrfs_search_slot. btrfs_search_slot has locks held on both the parent and the node we are COWing, and so we really want to avoid IO during the COW if we can. This commit adds an rbtree of pending reference count updates and extent allocations. The tree is ordered by byte number of the extent and byte number of the parent for the back reference. The tree allows us to: 1) Modify back references in something close to disk order, reducing seeks 2) Significantly reduce the number of modifications made as block pointers are balanced around 3) Do all of the extent insertion and back reference modifications outside of the performance critical btrfs_search_slot code. #3 has the added benefit of greatly reducing the btrfs stack footprint. The extent allocation tree modifications are done without the deep (and somewhat recursive) call chains used in the past. These delayed back reference updates must be done before the transaction commits, and so the rbtree is tied to the transaction. Throttling is implemented to help keep the queue of backrefs at a reasonable size. Since there was a similar mechanism in place for the extent tree extents, that is removed and replaced by the delayed reference tree.

This is a step in the direction of better -ENOSPC handling. Instead of checking the global bytes counter we check the space_info bytes counters to make sure we have enough space. If we don't we go ahead and try to allocate a new chunk, and then if that fails we return -ENOSPC. This patch adds two counters to btrfs_space_info, bytes_delalloc and bytes_may_use. bytes_delalloc account for extents we've actually setup for delalloc and will be allocated at some point down the line. bytes_may_use is to keep track of how many bytes we may use for delalloc at some point. When we actually set the extent_bit for the delalloc bytes we subtract the reserved bytes from the bytes_may_use counter. This keeps us from not actually being able to allocate space for any delalloc bytes. Signed-off-by: NJosef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com>

To improve performance, btrfs_sync_log merges tree log sync requests. But it wrongly merges sync requests for different tree logs. If multiple tree logs are synced at the same time, only one of them actually gets synced. This patch has following changes to fix the bug: Move most tree log related fields in btrfs_fs_info to btrfs_root. This allows merging sync requests separately for each tree log. Don't insert root item into the log root tree immediately after log tree is allocated. Root item for log tree is inserted when log tree get synced for the first time. This allows syncing the log root tree without first syncing all log trees. At tree-log sync, btrfs_sync_log first sync the log tree; then updates corresponding root item in the log root tree; sync the log root tree; then update the super block.

Checksums on data can be disabled by mount option, so it's possible some data extents don't have checksums or have invalid checksums. This causes trouble for data relocation. This patch contains following things to make data relocation work. 1) make nodatasum/nodatacow mount option only affects new files. Checksums and COW on data are only controlled by the inode flags. 2) check the existence of checksum in the nodatacow checker. If checksums exist, force COW the data extent. This ensure that checksum for a given block is either valid or does not exist. 3) update data relocation code to properly handle the case of checksum missing.

When reading compressed extents, try to put pages into the page cache for any pages covered by the compressed extent that readpages didn't already preload. Add an async work queue to handle transformations at delayed allocation processing time. Right now this is just compression. The workflow is: 1) Find offsets in the file marked for delayed allocation 2) Lock the pages 3) Lock the state bits 4) Call the async delalloc code The async delalloc code clears the state lock bits and delalloc bits. It is important this happens before the range goes into the work queue because otherwise it might deadlock with other work queue items that try to lock those extent bits. The file pages are compressed, and if the compression doesn't work the pages are written back directly. An ordered work queue is used to make sure the inodes are written in the same order that pdflush or writepages sent them down. This changes extent_write_cache_pages to let the writepage function update the wbc nr_written count. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Make sure we keep page->mapping NULL on the pages we're getting via alloc_page. It gets set so a few of the callbacks can do the right thing, but in general these pages don't have a mapping. Don't try to truncate compressed inline items in btrfs_drop_extents. The whole compressed item must be preserved. Don't try to create multipage inline compressed items. When we try to overwrite just the first page of the file, we would have to read in and recow all the pages after it in the same compressed inline items. For now, only create single page inline items. Make sure we lock pages in the correct order during delalloc. The search into the state tree for delalloc bytes can return bytes before the page we already have locked.

This is a large change for adding compression on reading and writing, both for inline and regular extents. It does some fairly large surgery to the writeback paths. Compression is off by default and enabled by mount -o compress. Even when the -o compress mount option is not used, it is possible to read compressed extents off the disk. If compression for a given set of pages fails to make them smaller, the file is flagged to avoid future compression attempts later. * While finding delalloc extents, the pages are locked before being sent down to the delalloc handler. This allows the delalloc handler to do complex things such as cleaning the pages, marking them writeback and starting IO on their behalf. * Inline extents are inserted at delalloc time now. This allows us to compress the data before inserting the inline extent, and it allows us to insert an inline extent that spans multiple pages. * All of the in-memory extent representations (extent_map.c, ordered-data.c etc) are changed to record both an in-memory size and an on disk size, as well as a flag for compression. From a disk format point of view, the extent pointers in the file are changed to record the on disk size of a given extent and some encoding flags. Space in the disk format is allocated for compression encoding, as well as encryption and a generic 'other' field. Neither the encryption or the 'other' field are currently used. In order to limit the amount of data read for a single random read in the file, the size of a compressed extent is limited to 128k. This is a software only limit, the disk format supports u64 sized compressed extents. In order to limit the ram consumed while processing extents, the uncompressed size of a compressed extent is limited to 256k. This is a software only limit and will be subject to tuning later. Checksumming is still done on compressed extents, and it is done on the uncompressed version of the data. This way additional encodings can be layered on without having to figure out which encoding to checksum. Compression happens at delalloc time, which is basically singled threaded because it is usually done by a single pdflush thread. This makes it tricky to spread the compression load across all the cpus on the box. We'll have to look at parallel pdflush walks of dirty inodes at a later time. Decompression is hooked into readpages and it does spread across CPUs nicely. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

The offset field in struct btrfs_extent_ref records the position inside file that file extent is referenced by. In the new back reference system, tree leaves holding references to file extent are recorded explicitly. We can scan these tree leaves very quickly, so the offset field is not required. This patch also makes the back reference system check the objectid when extents are in deleting. Signed-off-by: NYan Zheng <zheng.yan@oracle.com>

This patch makes btrfs count space allocated to file in bytes instead of 512 byte sectors. Everything else in btrfs uses a byte count instead of sector sizes or blocks sizes, so this fits better. Signed-off-by: NYan Zheng <zheng.yan@oracle.com>
