      xfs: fix shutdown hang on invalid inode during create · 9f87832a
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      When the new inode verify in xfs_iread() fails, the create
      transaction is aborted and a shutdown occurs. The subsequent unmount
      then hangs in xfs_wait_buftarg() on a buffer that has an elevated
      hold count. Debug showed that it was an AGI buffer getting stuck:
      
      [   22.576147] XFS (vdb): buffer 0x2/0x1, hold 0x2 stuck
      [   22.976213] XFS (vdb): buffer 0x2/0x1, hold 0x2 stuck
      [   23.376206] XFS (vdb): buffer 0x2/0x1, hold 0x2 stuck
      [   23.776325] XFS (vdb): buffer 0x2/0x1, hold 0x2 stuck
      
      The trace of this buffer leading up to the shutdown (trimmed for
      brevity) looks like:

      xfs_buf_rele:        bno 0x2 nblks 0x1 hold 3 caller xfs_buf_item_unlock
      
      And that is the AGI buffer from cold cache read into memory to
      transaction abort. You can see at transaction abort the bli is dirty
      and only has a single reference. The item is not pinned, and it's
      not in the AIL. Hence the only reference to it is this transaction.
      
      The problem is that the xfs_buf_item_unlock() call is dropping the
      last reference to the xfs_buf_log_item attached to the buffer (which
      holds a reference to the buffer), but it is not freeing the
      xfs_buf_log_item. Hence nothing will ever release the buffer, and
      the unmount hangs waiting for this reference to go away.
      
      The fix is simple - xfs_buf_item_unlock needs to detect the last
      reference going away in this case and free the xfs_buf_log_item to
      release the reference it holds on the buffer.

      xfs: fix _xfs_buf_find oops on blocks beyond the filesystem end · eb178619
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      When _xfs_buf_find is passed an out of range address, it will fail
      to find a relevant struct xfs_perag and oops with a null
      dereference. This can happen when trying to walk a filesystem with a
      metadata inode that has a partially corrupted extent map (i.e. the
      block number returned is corrupt, but is otherwise intact) and we
      try to read from the corrupted block address.
      
      In this case, just fail the lookup. If it is readahead being issued,
      it will simply not be done, but if it is real read that fails we
      will get an error being reported.  Ideally this case should result
      in an EFSCORRUPTED error being reported, but we cannot return an
      error through xfs_buf_read() or xfs_buf_get() so this lookup failure
      may result in ENOMEM or EIO errors being reported instead.

      xfs: drop buffer io reference when a bad bio is built · d69043c4
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Error handling in xfs_buf_ioapply_map() does not handle IO reference
      counts correctly. We increment the b_io_remaining count before
      building the bio, but then fail to decrement it in the failure case.
      This leads to the buffer never running IO completion and releasing
      the reference that the IO holds, so at unmount we can leak the
      buffer. This leak is captured by this assert failure during unmount:
      
      XFS: Assertion failed: atomic_read(&pag->pag_ref) == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c, line: 273
      
      This is not a new bug - the b_io_remaining accounting has had this
      problem for a long, long time - it's just very hard to get a
      zero length bio being built by this code...
      
      Further, the buffer IO error can be overwritten on a multi-segment
      buffer by subsequent bio completions for partial sections of the
      buffer. Hence we should only set the buffer error status if the
      buffer is not already carrying an error status. This ensures that a
      partial IO error on a multi-segment buffer will not be lost. This
      part of the problem is a regression, however.

      xfs: convert buffer verifiers to an ops structure. · 1813dd64
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      To separate the verifiers from iodone functions and associate read
      and write verifiers at the same time, introduce a buffer verifier
      operations structure to the xfs_buf.
      
      This avoids the need for assigning the write verifier, clearing the
      iodone function and re-running ioend processing in the read
      verifier, and gets rid of the nasty "b_pre_io" name for the write
      verifier function pointer. If we ever need to, it will also be
      easier to add further content specific callbacks to a buffer with an
      ops structure in place.
      
      We also avoid needing to export verifier functions, instead we
      can simply export the ops structures for those that are needed
      outside the function they are defined in.
      
      This patch also fixes a directory block readahead verifier issue
      it exposed.
      
      This patch also adds ops callbacks to the inode/alloc btree blocks
      initialised by growfs. These will need more work before they will
      work with CRCs.

      Add a callback to the buffer write path to enable verification of
      the buffer and CRC calculation prior to issuing the write to the

      If the callback function detects some kind of failure or error
      condition, it must mark the buffer with an error so that the caller
      can take appropriate action. In the case of xfs_buf_ioapply(), a
      corrupt metadta buffer willt rigger a shutdown of the filesystem,
      because something is clearly wrong and we can't allow corrupt
      metadata to be written to disk.

      xfs: uncached buffer reads need to return an error · eab4e633
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      With verification being done as an IO completion callback, different
      errors can be returned from a read. Uncached reads only return a
      buffer or NULL on failure, which means the verification error cannot
      be returned to the caller.
      
      Split the error handling for these reads into two - a failure to get
      a buffer will still return NULL, but a read error will return a
      referenced buffer with b_error set rather than NULL. The caller is
      responsible for checking the error state of the buffer returned.

      xfs: make buffer read verication an IO completion function · c3f8fc73
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Add a verifier function callback capability to the buffer read
      interfaces.  This will be used by the callers to supply a function
      that verifies the contents of the buffer when it is read from disk.
      This patch does not provide callback functions, but simply modifies
      the interfaces to allow them to be called.
      
      The reason for adding this to the read interfaces is that it is very
      difficult to tell fom the outside is a buffer was just read from
      disk or whether we just pulled it out of cache. Supplying a callbck
      allows the buffer cache to use it's internal knowledge of the buffer
      to execute it only when the buffer is read from disk.
      
      It is intended that the verifier functions will mark the buffer with
      an EFSCORRUPTED error when verification fails. This allows the
      reading context to distinguish a verification error from an IO
      error, and potentially take further actions on the buffer (e.g.
      attempt repair) based on the error reported.

      xfs: fix race while discarding buffers [V4] · 6fb8a90a
      Carlos Maiolino 提交于
      While xfs_buftarg_shrink() is freeing buffers from the dispose list (filled with
      buffers from lru list), there is a possibility to have xfs_buf_stale() racing
      with it, and removing buffers from dispose list before xfs_buftarg_shrink() does
      it.
      
      This happens because xfs_buftarg_shrink() handle the dispose list without
      locking and the test condition in xfs_buf_stale() checks for the buffer being in
      *any* list:
      
      if (!list_empty(&bp->b_lru))
      
      If the buffer happens to be on dispose list, this causes the buffer counter of
      lru list (btp->bt_lru_nr) to be decremented twice (once in xfs_buftarg_shrink()
      and another in xfs_buf_stale()) causing a wrong account usage of the lru list.
      
      This may cause xfs_buftarg_shrink() to return a wrong value to the memory
      shrinker shrink_slab(), and such account error may also cause an underflowed
      value to be returned; since the counter is lower than the current number of
      items in the lru list, a decrement may happen when the counter is 0, causing
      an underflow on the counter.
      
      The fix uses a new flag field (and a new buffer flag) to serialize buffer
      handling during the shrink process. The new flag field has been designed to use
      btp->bt_lru_lock/unlock instead of xfs_buf_lock/unlock mechanism.

      Just about all callers of xfs_buf_read() and xfs_buf_get() use XBF_DONTBLOCK.
      This is used to make memory allocation use GFP_NOFS rather than GFP_KERNEL to
      avoid recursion through memory reclaim back into the filesystem.
      
      All the blocking get calls in growfs occur inside a transaction, even though
      they are no part of the transaction, so all allocation will be GFP_NOFS due to
      the task flag PF_TRANS being set. The blocking read calls occur during log
      recovery, so they will probably be unaffected by converting to GFP_NOFS
      allocations.
      
      Hence make XBF_DONTBLOCK behaviour always occur for buffers and kill the flag.

      xfs: kill xfs_buf_btoc · 795cac72
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      xfs_buf_btoc and friends are simple macros that do basic block
      to page index conversion and vice versa. These aren't widely used,
      and we use open coded masking and shifting everywhere else. Hence
      remove the macros and open code the work they do.
      
      Also, use of PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE|SHIFT|MASK} for these macros is now
      incorrect - we are using pages directly and not the page cache, so
      use PAGE_{SIZE|MASK|SHIFT} instead.

      xfs: use blocks for storing the desired IO size · aa0e8833
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Now that we pass block counts everywhere, and index buffers by block
      number and length in units of blocks, convert the desired IO size
      into block counts rather than bytes. Convert the code to use block
      counts, and those that need byte counts get converted at the time of
      use.
      
      Rename the b_desired_count variable to something closer to it's
      purpose - b_io_length - as it is only used to specify the length of
      an IO for a subset of the buffer.  The only time this is used is for
      log IO - both writing iclogs and during log recovery. In all other
      cases, the b_io_length matches b_length, and hence a lot of code
      confuses the two. e.g. the buf item code uses the io count
      exclusively when it should be using the buffer length. Fix these
      apprpriately as they are found.
      
      Also, remove the XFS_BUF_{SET_}COUNT() macros that are just wrappers
      around the desired IO length. They only serve to make the code
      shouty loud, don't actually add any real value, and are often used
      incorrectly.

      xfs: fix incorrect b_offset initialisation · ead360c5
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Because we no longer use the page cache for buffering, there is no
      direct block number to page offset relationship anymore.
      xfs_buf_get_pages is still setting up b_offset as if there was some
      relationship, and that is leading to incorrectly setting up
      *uncached* buffers that don't overwrite b_offset once they've had
      pages allocated.
      
      For cached buffers, the first block of the buffer is always at offset
      zero into the allocated memory. This is true for sub-page sized
      buffers, as well as for multiple-page buffers.
      
      For uncached buffers, b_offset is only non-zero when we are
      associating specific memory to the buffers, and that is set
      correctly by the code setting up the buffer.
      
      Hence remove the setting of b_offset in xfs_buf_get_pages, because
      it is now always the wrong thing to do.

      xfs: check for buffer errors before waiting · 0e95f19a
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      If we call xfs_buf_iowait() on a buffer that failed dispatch due to
      an IO error, it will wait forever for an Io that does not exist.
      This is hndled in xfs_buf_read, but there is other code that calls
      xfs_buf_iowait directly that doesn't.
      
      Rather than make the call sites have to handle checking for dispatch
      errors and then checking for completion errors, make
      xfs_buf_iowait() check for dispatch errors on the buffer before
      waiting. This means we handle both dispatch and completion errors
      with one set of error handling at the caller sites.

      xfs: fix buffer lookup race on allocation failure · fe2429b0
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      When memory allocation fails to add the page array or tht epages to
      a buffer during xfs_buf_get(), the buffer is left in the cache in a
      partially initialised state. There is enough state left for the next
      lookup on that buffer to find the buffer, and for the buffer to then
      be used without finishing the initialisation.  As a result, when an
      attempt to do IO on the buffer occurs, it fails with EIO because
      there are no pages attached to the buffer.
      
      We cannot remove the buffer from the cache immediately and free it,
      because there may already be a racing lookup that is blocked on the
      buffer lock. Hence the moment we unlock the buffer to then free it,
      the other user is woken and we have a use-after-free situation.
      
      To avoid this race condition altogether, allocate the pages for the
      buffer before we insert it into the cache.  This then means that we
      don't have an allocation  failure case to deal after the buffer is
      already present in the cache, and hence avoid the problem
      altogether.  In most cases we won't have racing inserts for the same
      buffer, and so won't increase the memory pressure allocation before
      insertion may entail.

      xfs: on-stack delayed write buffer lists · 43ff2122
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Queue delwri buffers on a local on-stack list instead of a per-buftarg one,
      and write back the buffers per-process instead of by waking up xfsbufd.
      
      This is now easily doable given that we have very few places left that write
      delwri buffers:
      
       - log recovery:
      	Only done at mount time, and already forcing out the buffers
      	synchronously using xfs_flush_buftarg
      
       - quotacheck:
      	Same story.
      
       - dquot reclaim:
      	Writes out dirty dquots on the LRU under memory pressure.  We might
      	want to look into doing more of this via xfsaild, but it's already
      	more optimal than the synchronous inode reclaim that writes each
      	buffer synchronously.
      
       - xfsaild:
      	This is the main beneficiary of the change.  By keeping a local list
      	of buffers to write we reduce latency of writing out buffers, and
      	more importably we can remove all the delwri list promotions which
      	were hitting the buffer cache hard under sustained metadata loads.
      
      The implementation is very straight forward - xfs_buf_delwri_queue now gets
      a new list_head pointer that it adds the delwri buffers to, and all callers
      need to eventually submit the list using xfs_buf_delwi_submit or
      xfs_buf_delwi_submit_nowait.  Buffers that already are on a delwri list are
      skipped in xfs_buf_delwri_queue, assuming they already are on another delwri
      list.  The biggest change to pass down the buffer list was done to the AIL
      pushing. Now that we operate on buffers the trylock, push and pushbuf log
      item methods are merged into a single push routine, which tries to lock the
      item, and if possible add the buffer that needs writeback to the buffer list.
      This leads to much simpler code than the previous split but requires the
      individual IOP_PUSH instances to unlock and reacquire the AIL around calls
      to blocking routines.
      
      Given that xfsailds now also handle writing out buffers, the conditions for
      log forcing and the sleep times needed some small changes.  The most
      important one is that we consider an AIL busy as long we still have buffers
      to push, and the other one is that we do increment the pushed LSN for
      buffers that are under flushing at this moment, but still count them towards
      the stuck items for restart purposes.  Without this we could hammer on stuck
      items without ever forcing the log and not make progress under heavy random
      delete workloads on fast flash storage devices.
      
      [ Dave Chinner:
      	- rebase on previous patches.
      	- improved comments for XBF_DELWRI_Q handling
      	- fix XBF_ASYNC handling in queue submission (test 106 failure)
      	- rename delwri submit function buffer list parameters for clarity
      	- xfs_efd_item_push() should return XFS_ITEM_PINNED ]

      There is no reason to export two functions for entering the

      * Update try_to_freeze() to return bool and relay the return value of
        __refrigerator() if freezing().
      
      * Convert all refrigerator() users to try_to_freeze().
      
      * Update documentation accordingly.
