      GFS2: Add allocation parameters structure · 7b9cff46
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch adds a structure to contain allocation parameters with
      the intention of future expansion of this structure. The idea is
      that we should be able to add more information about the allocation
      in the future in order to allow the allocator to make a better job
      of placing the requests on-disk.
      
      There is no functional difference from applying this patch.

      GFS2: Clean up reservation removal · af5c2697
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      The reservation for an inode should be cleared when it is truncated so
      that we can start again at a different offset for future allocations.
      We could try and do better than that, by resetting the search based on
      where the truncation started from, but this is only a first step.
      
      In addition, there are three callers of gfs2_rs_delete() but only one
      of those should really be testing the value of i_writecount. While
      we get away with that in the other cases currently, I think it would
      be better if we made that test specific to the one case which
      requires it.

      GFS2: dirty inode correctly in gfs2_write_end · 0c901809
      Benjamin Marzinski 提交于
      GFS2 was only setting I_DIRTY_DATASYNC on files that it wrote to, when
      it actually increased the file size.  If gfs2_fsync was called without
      I_DIRTY_DATASYNC set, it didn't flush the incore data to the log before
      returning, so any metadata or journaled data changes were not getting
      fsynced. This meant that writes to the middle of files were not always
      getting fsynced properly.
      
      This patch makes gfs2 set I_DIRTY_DATASYNC whenever metadata has been
      updated during a write. It also make gfs2_sync flush the incore log
      if I_DIRTY_PAGES is set, and the file is using data journalling. This
      will make sure that all incore logged data gets written to disk before
      returning from a fsync.

      locks: protect most of the file_lock handling with i_lock · 1c8c601a
      Jeff Layton 提交于
      Having a global lock that protects all of this code is a clear
      scalability problem. Instead of doing that, move most of the code to be
      protected by the i_lock instead. The exceptions are the global lists
      that the ->fl_link sits on, and the ->fl_block list.
      
      ->fl_link is what connects these structures to the
      global lists, so we must ensure that we hold those locks when iterating
      over or updating these lists.
      
      Furthermore, sound deadlock detection requires that we hold the
      blocked_list state steady while checking for loops. We also must ensure
      that the search and update to the list are atomic.
      
      For the checking and insertion side of the blocked_list, push the
      acquisition of the global lock into __posix_lock_file and ensure that
      checking and update of the  blocked_list is done without dropping the
      lock in between.
      
      On the removal side, when waking up blocked lock waiters, take the
      global lock before walking the blocked list and dequeue the waiters from
      the global list prior to removal from the fl_block list.
      
      With this, deadlock detection should be race free while we minimize
      excessive file_lock_lock thrashing.
      
      Finally, in order to avoid a lock inversion problem when handling
      /proc/locks output we must ensure that manipulations of the fl_block
      list are also protected by the file_lock_lock.

      GFS2: Add atomic_open support · 6d4ade98
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      I've restricted atomic_open to only operate on regular files, although
      I still don't understand why atomic_open should not be possible also for
      directories on GFS2. That can always be added in later though, if it
      makes sense.
      
      The ->atomic_open function can be passed negative dentries, which
      in most cases means either ENOENT (->lookup) or a call to d_instantiate
      (->create). In the GFS2 case though, we need to actually perform the
      look up, since we do not know whether there has been a new inode created
      on another node. The look up calls d_splice_alias which then tries to
      rehash the dentry - so the solution here is to simply check for that
      in d_splice_alias. The same issue is likely to affect any other cluster
      filesystem implementing ->atomic_open

      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.

      resource group (GFS2 equivalent of a block group).
      
      If you are creating a set of directories, each of which will contain a
      job running on a different node, then by setting +T on the parent
      directory before creating the subdirectories, each will land up in a
      different resource group, and thus resource group contention between

      GFS2: Don't call file_accessed() with a shared glock · 3d162688
      Benjamin Marzinski 提交于
      file_accessed() was being called by gfs2_mmap() with a shared glock. If it
      needed to update the atime, it was crashing because it dirtied the inode in
      gfs2_dirty_inode() without holding an exclusive lock. gfs2_dirty_inode()
      checked if the caller was already holding a glock, but it didn't make sure that
      the glock was in the exclusive state. Now, instead of calling file_accessed()
      while holding the shared lock in gfs2_mmap(), file_accessed() is called after
      grabbing and releasing the glock to update the inode.  If file_accessed() needs
      to update the atime, it will grab an exclusive lock in gfs2_dirty_inode().
      
      gfs2_dirty_inode() now also checks to make sure that if the calling process has
      already locked the glock, it has an exclusive lock.

      The rs_requested field is left over from the original allocation

      This also helps simplify the code since we no longer need to set
      the rs_requested to zero. Also the gfs2_inplace_release()
      function can also be simplified since the reservation structure
      will always be defined when it is called, and the only remaining

      gfs2_fallocate was calling gfs2_write_alloc_required() once at the start of
      the function. This caused problems since gfs2_write_alloc_required used a

      chunks are actually allocated and zeroed out. This will keep the allocation
      size under the limit, and also allow gfs2_fallocate to quickly skip over
      sections of the file that are already completely allocated.
      
      fallcate_chunk was also not correctly setting the file size.  It was using the

      GFS2: FITRIM ioctl support · 66fc061b
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      The FITRIM ioctl provides an alternative way to send discard requests to
      the underlying device. Using the discard mount option results in every
      freed block generating a discard request to the block device. This can
      be slow, since many block devices can only process discard requests of
      larger sizes, and also such operations can be time consuming.
      
      Rather than using the discard mount option, FITRIM allows a sweep of the
      filesystem on an occasional basis, and also to optionally avoid sending
      down discard requests for smaller regions.
      
      In GFS2 FITRIM will work at resource group granularity. There is a flag
      for each resource group which keeps track of which resource groups have
      been trimmed. This flag is reset whenever a deallocation occurs in the
      resource group, and set whenever a successful FITRIM of that resource
      group has taken place. This helps to reduce repeated discard requests
      for the same block ranges, again improving performance.

      it called gfs2_rindex_update. However, if the file being fallocated was
      the rindex itself, it was already locked at that point. By calling
      gfs2_rindex_update at an earlier point in time, we bring rindex up to date

      GFS2: O_(D)SYNC support for fallocate · 4442f2e0
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      Add sync of metadata after fallocate for O_SYNC files to ensure that we
      meet expectations for everything being on disk in this case.
      Unfortunately, the offset and len parameters are modified during the
      course of the fallocate function, so I've had to add a couple of new
      variables to call generic_write_sync() at the end.
      
      I know that potentially this will sync data as well within the range,
      but I think that is a fairly harmless side-effect overall, since we
      would not normally expect there to be any dirty data within the range in
      question.
