If an error occurs during jbd cache initialisation it is possible for the journal_head_cache to be NULL when journal_destroy_journal_head_cache is called. Replace the J_ASSERT with an if block to handle the situation correctly. Note that even with this fix things will break badly if jbd is statically compiled in and cache initialisation fails.

There are several cases where the running transaction can get buffers added to its BJ_Metadata list which it never dirtied, which makes its t_nr_buffers counter end up larger than its t_outstanding_credits counter. This will cause issues when starting new transactions as while we are logging buffers we decrement t_outstanding_buffers, so when t_outstanding_buffers goes negative, we will report that we need less space in the journal than we actually need, so transactions will be started even though there may not be enough room for them. In the worst case scenario (which admittedly is almost impossible to reproduce) this will result in the journal running out of space. The fix is to only refile buffers from the committing transaction to the running transactions BJ_Modified list when b_modified is set on that journal, which is the only way to be sure if the running transaction has modified that buffer. This patch also fixes an accounting error in journal_forget, it is possible that we can call journal_forget on a buffer without having modified it, only gotten write access to it, so instead of freeing a credit, we only do so if the buffer was modified. The assert will help catch if this problem occurs. Without these two patches I could hit this assert within minutes of running postmark, with them this issue no longer arises.

Currently at the start of a journal commit we loop through all of the buffers on the committing transaction and clear the b_modified flag (the flag that is set when a transaction modifies the buffer) under the j_list_lock. The problem is that everywhere else this flag is modified only under the jbd lock buffer flag, so it will race with a running transaction who could potentially set it, and have it unset by the committing transaction. This is also a big waste, you can have several thousands of buffers that you are clearing the modified flag on when you may not need to. This patch removes this code and instead clears the b_modified flag upon entering do_get_write_access/journal_get_create_access, so if that transaction does indeed use the buffer then it will be accounted for properly, and if it does not then we know we didn't use it. That will be important for the next patch in this series. Tested thoroughly by myself using postmark/iozone/bonnie++.

Some devices - notably dm and md - can change their behaviour in response to BIO_RW_BARRIER requests. They might start out accepting such requests but on reconfiguration, they find out that they cannot any more. ext3 (and other filesystems) deal with this by always testing if BIO_RW_BARRIER requests fail with EOPNOTSUPP, and retrying the write requests without the barrier (probably after waiting for any pending writes to complete). However there is a bug in the handling for this for ext3. When ext3 (jbd actually) decides to submit a BIO_RW_BARRIER request, it sets the buffer_ordered flag on the buffer head. If the request completes successfully, the flag STAYS SET. Other code might then write the same buffer_head after the device has been reconfigured to not accept barriers. This write will then fail, but the "other code" is not ready to handle EOPNOTSUPP errors and the error will be treated as fatal. This can be seen without having to reconfigure a device at exactly the wrong time by putting: if (buffer_ordered(bh)) printk("OH DEAR, and ordered buffer\n"); in the while loop in "commit phase 5" of journal_commit_transaction. If it ever prints the "OH DEAR ..." message (as it does sometimes for me), then that request could (in different circumstances) have failed with EOPNOTSUPP, but that isn't tested for. My proposed fix is to clear the buffer_ordered flag after it has been used, as in the following patch.

The break_lock data structure and code for spinlocks is quite nasty. Not only does it double the size of a spinlock but it changes locking to a potentially less optimal trylock. Put all of that under CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, and introduce a __raw_spin_is_contended that uses the lock data itself to determine whether there are waiters on the lock, to be used if CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK is not set. Rename need_lockbreak to spin_needbreak, make it use spin_is_contended to decouple it from the spinlock implementation, and make it typesafe (rwlocks do not have any need_lockbreak sites -- why do they even get bloated up with that break_lock then?).

Before we start committing a transaction, we call __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() to cleanup transaction's written-back buffers. If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :). We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a transaction in T_FINISHED state. The locking there is subtle though (as everywhere in JBD ;(). We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction can get to T_FINISHED state. Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary - checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a transaction must be already committed to be processed or from __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus transaction cannot change state either. Better be safe if something changes in future...

Note from Mingming's JBD2 fix: Noticed all warnings are occurs when the debug level is 0. Then found the "jbd2: Move jbd2-debug file to debugfs" patch http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=0f49d5d019afa4e94253bfc92f0daca3badb990b changed the jbd2_journal_enable_debug from int type to u8, makes the jbd_debug comparision is always true when the debugging level is 0. Thus the compile warning occurs. Thought about changing the jbd2_journal_enable_debug data type back to int, but can't, because the jbd2-debug is moved to debug fs, where calling debugfs_create_u8() to create the debugfs entry needs the value to be u8 type. Even if we changed the data type back to int, the code is still buggy, kernel should not print jbd2 debug message if the jbd2_journal_enable_debug is set to 0. But this is not the case. The fix is change the level of debugging to 1. The same should fixed in ext3/JBD, but currently ext3 jbd-debug via /proc fs is broken, so we probably should fix it all together.

The jbd-debug file used to be located in /proc/sys/fs/jbd-debug, but create_proc_entry() does not do lookups on file names that are more that one directory deep. This causes the entry creation to fail and hence, no proc file is created. Instead of fixing this on procfs might as well move the jbd2-debug file to debugfs which would be the preferred location for this kind of tunable.

This patch marks a number of allocations that are either short-lived such as network buffers or are reclaimable such as inode allocations. When something like updatedb is called, long-lived and unmovable kernel allocations tend to be spread throughout the address space which increases fragmentation. This patch groups these allocations together as much as possible by adding a new MIGRATE_TYPE. The MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE type is for allocations that can be reclaimed on demand, but not moved. i.e. they can be migrated by deleting them and re-reading the information from elsewhere.

In the current jbd code, if a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is dirty and not locked, the buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list, submitted to the IO and waited for IO completion. But the fsstress test showed the case that when a buffer was already submitted to the IO just before the buffer_dirty(bh) check, the buffer was not waited for IO completion.

When running several fsx's and other filesystem stress tests, we found cases where an unmapped buffer was still being sent to submit_bh by the ext3 dirty data journaling code. I saw this happen in two ways, both related to another thread doing a truncate which would unmap the buffer in question. Either we would get into journal_dirty_data with a bh which was already unmapped (although journal_dirty_data_fn had checked for this earlier, the state was not locked at that point), or it would get unmapped in the middle of journal_dirty_data when we dropped locks to call sync_dirty_buffer. By re-checking for mapped state after we've acquired the bh state lock, we should avoid these races. If we find a buffer which is no longer mapped, we essentially ignore it, because journal_unmap_buffer has already decided that this buffer can go away. I've also added tracepoints in these two cases, and made a couple other tracepoint changes that I found useful in debugging this.
