The only reason for adding glocks to the journal was to keep track of which locks required a log flush prior to release. We add a flag to the glock to allow this check to be made in a simpler way. This reduces the size of a glock (by 12 bytes on i386, 24 on x86_64) and means that we can avoid extra work during the journal flush. Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

This patch resolves a lock ordering issue where we had been getting a transaction lock in the wrong order with respect to the page lock. By using writepages rather than just writepage, it is then possible to start a transaction before locking the page, and thus matching the locking order elsewhere in the code.

The i_cache was designed to keep references to the indirect blocks used during block mapping so that they didn't have to be looked up continually. The idea failed because there are too many places where the i_cache needs to be freed, and this has in the past been the cause of many bugs. In addition there was no performance benefit being gained since the disk blocks in question were cached anyway. So this patch removes it in order to simplify the code to prepare for other changes which would otherwise have had to add further support for this feature.

This patch cleans up the code for writing journaled data into the log. It also removes the need to allocate a small "tag" structure for each block written into the log. Instead we just keep count of the outstanding I/O so that we can be sure that its all been written at the correct time. Another result of this patch is that a number of ll_rw_block() calls have become submit_bh() calls, closing some races at the same time. Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

The following alters gfs2_trans_add_revoke() to take a struct gfs2_bufdata as an argument. This eliminates the memory allocation which was previously required by making use of the already existing struct gfs2_bufdata. It makes some sanity checks to ensure that the gfs2_bufdata has been removed from all the lists before its recycled as a revoke structure. This saves one memory allocation and one free per revoke structure. Also as a result, and to simplify the locking, since there is no longer any blocking code in gfs2_trans_add_revoke() we must hold the log lock whenever this function is called. This reduces the amount of times we take and unlock the log lock. Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

The following patch removes the ordered write processing from databuf_lo_before_commit() and moves it to log.c. This has the effect of greatly simplyfying databuf_lo_before_commit() and well as potentially making the ordered write code more efficient. As a side effect of this, its now possible to remove ordered buffers from the ordered buffer list at any time, so we now make use of this in invalidatepage and releasepage to ensure timely release of these buffers.

This patch fixes some bugs relating to journaled data files by cleaning up the gfs2_invalidatepage() and gfs2_releasepage() functions.

This reverts part of an earlier patch which tried to reclaim gfs2_bufdata structures too early and resulted in a "use after free" case (this bit from me).

This patch passes all my nasty tests that were causing the code to fail under one circumstance or another. Here is a complete summary of all changes from today's git tree, in order of appearance: 1. There are now separate variables for metadata buffer accounting. 2. Variable sd_log_num_hdrs is no longer needed, since the header accounting is taken care of by the reserve/refund sequence. 3. Fixed a tiny grammatical problem in a comment. 4. Added a new function "calc_reserved" to calculate the reserved log space. This isn't entirely necessary, but it has two benefits: First, it simplifies the gfs2_log_refund function greatly. Second, it allows for easier debugging because I could sprinkle the code with calls to this function to make sure the accounting is proper (by adding asserts and printks) at strategic point of the code. 5. In log_pull_tail there apparently was a kludge to fix up the accounting based on a "pull" parameter. The buffer accounting is now done properly, so the kludge was removed. 6. File sync operations were making a call to gfs2_log_flush that writes another journal header. Since that header was unplanned for (reserved) by the reserve/refund sequence, the free space had to be decremented so that when log_pull_tail gets called, the free space is be adjusted properly. (Did I hear you call that a kludge? well, maybe, but a lot more justifiable than the one I removed). 7. In the gfs2_log_shutdown code, it optionally syncs the log by specifying the PULL parameter to log_write_header. I'm not sure this is necessary anymore. It just seems to me there could be cases where shutdown is called while there are outstanding log buffers. 8. In the (data)buf_lo_before_commit functions, I changed some offset values from being calculated on the fly to being constants. That simplified some code and we might as well let the compiler do the calculation once rather than redoing those cycles at run time. 9. This version has my rewritten databuf_lo_add function. This version is much more like its predecessor, buf_lo_add, which makes it easier to understand. Again, this might not be necessary, but it seems as if this one works as well as the previous one, maybe even better, so I decided to leave it in. 10. In databuf_lo_before_commit, a previous data corruption problem was caused by going off the end of the buffer. The proper solution is to have the proper limit in place, rather than stopping earlier. (Thus my previous attempt to fix it is wrong). If you don't wrap the buffer, you're stopping too early and that causes more log buffer accounting problems. 11. In lops.h there are two new (previously mentioned) constants for figuring out the data offset for the journal buffers. 12. There are also two new functions, buf_limit and databuf_limit to calculate how many entries will fit in the buffer. 13. In function gfs2_meta_wipe, it needs to distinguish between pinned metadata buffers and journaled data buffers for proper journal buffer accounting. It can't use the JDATA gfs2_inode flag because it's sometimes passed the "real" inode and sometimes the "metadata inode" and the inode flags will be random bits in a metadata gfs2_inode. It needs to base its decision on which was passed in. Signed-off-by: NBob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

This patch is for bugzilla bug 283162, which uncovered a number of bugs pertaining to writing to files that have the journaled bit on. These bugs happen most often when writing to the meta_fs because the files are always journaled. So operations like gfs2_grow were particularly vulnerable, although many of the problems could be recreated with normal files after setting the journaled bit on. The problems fixed are: -GFS2 wasn't ever writing unstuffed journaled data blocks to their in-place location on disk. Now it does. -If you unmounted too quickly after doing IO to a journaled file, GFS2 was crashing because you would discard a buffer whose bufdata was still on the active items list. GFS2 now deals with this gracefully. -GFS2 was losing track of the bufdata for journaled data blocks, and it wasn't getting freed, causing an error when you tried to unmount the module. GFS2 now frees all the bufdata structures. -There was a memory corruption occurring because GFS2 wrote twice as many log entries for journaled buffers. -It was occasionally trying to write journal headers in buffers that weren't currently mapped.

This is a patch for the first three issues of RHBZ #238162 The first issue is that when you allocate a new page for a file, it will not start off uptodate. This makes sense, since you haven't written anything to that part of the file yet. Unfortunately, gfs2_pin() checks to make sure that the buffers are uptodate. The solution to this is to mark the buffers uptodate in gfs2_commit_write(), after they have been zeroed out and have the data written into them. I'm pretty confident with this fix, although it's not completely obvious that there is no problem with marking the buffers uptodate here. The second issue is simply that you can try to pin a data buffer that is already on the incore log, and thus, already pinned. This patch checks to see if this buffer is already on the log, and exits databuf_lo_add() if it is, just like buf_lo_add() does. The third issue is that gfs2_log_flush() doesn't do it's block accounting correctly. Both metadata and journaled data are logged, but gfs2_log_flush() only compares the number of metadata blocks with the number of blocks to commit to the ondisk journal. This patch also counts the journaled data blocks. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

This fixes a bug which resulted in poor performance due to flushing the journal too often. The code path in question was via the inode_go_sync() function in glops.c. The solution is not to flush the journal immediately when inodes are ejected from memory, but batch up the work for glockd to deal with later on. This means that glocks may now live on beyond the end of the lifetime of their inodes (but not very much longer in the normal case). Also fixed in this patch is a bug (which was hidden by the bug mentioned above) in calculation of the number of free journal blocks. The gfs2_logd process has been altered to be more responsive to the journal filling up. We now wake it up when the number of uncommitted journal blocks has reached the threshold level rather than trying to flush directly at the end of each transaction. This again means doing fewer, but larger, log flushes in general. Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

This fix means that bmap will map extents of the length requested by the VFS rather than guessing at it, or just mapping one block at a time. The other callers of gfs2_block_map are audited to ensure they send the correct max extent lengths (i.e. set bh->b_size correctly). Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

This is a tidy up of the GFS2 bmap code. The main change is that the bh is passed to gfs2_block_map allowing the flags to be set directly rather than having to repeat that code several times in ops_address.c. At the same time, the extent mapping code from gfs2_extent_map has been moved into gfs2_block_map. This allows all calls to gfs2_block_map to map extents in the case that no allocation is taking place. As a result reads and non-allocating writes should be faster. A quick test with postmark appears to support this. There is a limit on the number of blocks mapped in a single bmap call in that it will only ever map blocks which are pointed to from a single pointer block. So in other words, it will never try to do additional i/o in order to satisfy read-ahead. The maximum number of blocks is thus somewhat less than 512 (the GFS2 4k block size minus the header divided by sizeof(u64)). I've further limited the mapping of "normal" blocks to 32 blocks (to avoid extra work) since readpages() will currently read a maximum of 32 blocks ahead (128k). Some further work will probably be needed to set a suitable value for DIO as well, but for now thats left at the maximum 512 (see ops_address.c:gfs2_get_block_direct). There is probably a lot more that can be done to improve bmap for GFS2, but this is a good first step. Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

As per comments from Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@linux01.gwdg.de> this updates the copyright message to say "version" in full rather than "v.2". Also incore.h has been updated to remove forward structure declarations which are not required. The gfs2_quota_lvb structure has now had endianess annotations added to it. Also quota.c has been updated so that we now store the lvb data locally in endian independant format to avoid needing a structure in host endianess too. As a result the endianess conversions are done as required at various points and thus the conversion routines in lvb.[ch] are no longer required. I've moved the one remaining constant in lvb.h thats used into lm.h and removed the unused lvb.[ch]. I have not changed the HIF_ constants. That is left to a later patch which I hope will unify the gh_flags and gh_iflags fields of the struct gfs2_holder.

log_refund() incorrectly assumed that if a transaction had been touched, it always committed buffers to the incore log. Thus, when you got around to flushing the log, you would need one more block than you committed, to account for the header. So it automatically set reserved to 1, which had the effect of making sdp->sd_log_blks_reserved one greater when you got to gfs2_log_flush(). However, if you don't actually commit anything to the incore log between flushes, you don't need the header, because you aren't writing anything out. With this patch, log_refund() only increments reservered to account for the header if something has been committed since the last flush. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin E.

Mmapped files were able to trigger a lock ordering bug. Private maps do not need to take the glock so early on. Shared maps do unfortunately, however we can get around that by adding a flag into the flags for the struct gfs2_file. This only works because we are taking an exclusive lock at this point, so we know that nobody else can be racing with us.

This patch fixes the way we have been dealing with unlinked, but still open files. It removes all limits (other than memory for inodes, as per every other filesystem) on numbers of these which we can support on GFS2. It also means that (like other fs) its the responsibility of the last process to close the file to deallocate the storage, rather than the person who did the unlinking. Note that with GFS2, those two events might take place on different nodes. Also there are a number of other changes: o We use the Linux inode subsystem as it was intended to be used, wrt allocating GFS2 inodes o The Linux inode cache is now the point which we use for local enforcement of only holding one copy of the inode in core at once (previous to this we used the glock layer). o We no longer use the unlinked "special" file. We just ignore it completely. This makes unlinking more efficient. o We now use the 4th block allocation state. The previously unused state is used to track unlinked but still open inodes. o gfs2_inoded is no longer needed o Several fields are now no longer needed (and removed) from the in core struct gfs2_inode o Several fields are no longer needed (and removed) from the in core superblock There are a number of future possible optimisations and clean ups which have been made possible by this patch.

This adds readpages support (and also corrects a small bug in the readpage error path at the same time). Hopefully this will improve performance by allowing GFS to submit larger lumps of I/O at a time. In order to simplify the setting of BH_Boundary, it currently gets set when we hit the end of a indirect pointer block. There is always a boundary at this point with the current allocation code. It doesn't get all the boundaries right though, so there is still room for improvement in this. See comments in fs/gfs2/ops_address.c for further information about readpages with GFS2.
