      Btrfs: add initial tracepoint support for btrfs · 1abe9b8a
      liubo 提交于
      Tracepoints can provide insight into why btrfs hits bugs and be greatly
      helpful for debugging, e.g

         flush-btrfs-2-7821  [001]  2155.824241: btrfs_cow_block: root = 2(EXTENT_TREE), refs = 2, orig_buf = 29388800 (orig_level = 0), cow_buf = 29396992 (cow_level = 0)

      Here is what I have added:
      
      1) ordere_extent:
              btrfs_ordered_extent_add
              btrfs_ordered_extent_remove
              btrfs_ordered_extent_start
              btrfs_ordered_extent_put
      
      These provide critical information to understand how ordered_extents are
      updated.
      
      2) extent_map:
              btrfs_get_extent
      
      extent_map is used in both read and write cases, and it is useful for tracking
      how btrfs specific IO is running.
      
      3) writepage:
              __extent_writepage
              btrfs_writepage_end_io_hook
      
      Pages are cirtical resourses and produce a lot of corner cases during writeback,
      so it is valuable to know how page is written to disk.
      
      4) inode:
              btrfs_inode_new
              btrfs_inode_request
              btrfs_inode_evict
      
      These can show where and when a inode is created, when a inode is evicted.
      
      5) sync:
              btrfs_sync_file
              btrfs_sync_fs
      
      These show sync arguments.
      
      6) transaction:
              btrfs_transaction_commit
      
      In transaction based filesystem, it will be useful to know the generation and
      who does commit.
      
      7) back reference and cow:
      	btrfs_delayed_tree_ref
      	btrfs_delayed_data_ref
      	btrfs_delayed_ref_head
      	btrfs_cow_block
      
      Btrfs natively supports back references, these tracepoints are helpful on
      understanding btrfs's COW mechanism.
      
      8) chunk:
      	btrfs_chunk_alloc
      	btrfs_chunk_free
      
      Chunk is a link between physical offset and logical offset, and stands for space
      infomation in btrfs, and these are helpful on tracing space things.
      
      9) reserved_extent:
      	btrfs_reserved_extent_alloc
      	btrfs_reserved_extent_free
      
      These can show how btrfs uses its space.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      Btrfs: Mixed back reference (FORWARD ROLLING FORMAT CHANGE) · 5d4f98a2
      Yan Zheng 提交于
      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.

      Btrfs: make sure btrfs_update_delayed_ref doesn't increase ref_mod · 1a81af4d
      Chris Mason 提交于
      btrfs_update_delayed_ref is optimized to add and remove different
      references in one pass through the delayed ref tree.  It is a zero
      sum on the total number of refs on a given extent.
      
      But, the code was recording an extra ref in the head node.  This
      never made it down to the disk but was used when deciding if it was
      safe to free the extent while dropping snapshots.
      
      The fix used here is to make sure the ref_mod count is unchanged
      on the head ref when btrfs_update_delayed_ref is called.

      Btrfs: process the delayed reference queue in clusters · c3e69d58
      Chris Mason 提交于
      The delayed reference queue maintains pending operations that need to
      be done to the extent allocation tree.  These are processed by
      finding records in the tree that are not currently being processed one at
      a time.
      
      This is slow because it uses lots of time searching through the rbtree
      and because it creates lock contention on the extent allocation tree
      when lots of different procs are running delayed refs at the same time.
      
      This commit changes things to grab a cluster of refs for processing,
      using a cursor into the rbtree as the starting point of the next search.
      This way we walk smoothly through the rbtree.

      Btrfs: do extent allocation and reference count updates in the background · 56bec294
      Chris Mason 提交于
      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.
