2009-02-04Btrfs: don't return congestion in write_cache_pages as oftenChris Mason
On fast devices that go from congested to uncongested very quickly, pdflush is waiting too often in congestion_wait, and the FS is backing off to easily in write_cache_pages. For now, fix this on the btrfs side by only checking congestion after some bios have already gone down. Longer term a real fix is needed for pdflush, but that is a larger project.

2009-02-04Btrfs: Only prep for btree deletion balances when nodes are mostly emptyChris Mason
Whenever an item deletion is done, we need to balance all the nodes in the tree to make sure we don't end up with an empty node if a pointer is deleted. This balance prep happens from the root of the tree down so we can drop our locks as we go. reada_for_balance was triggering read-ahead on neighboring nodes even when no balancing was required. This adds an extra check to avoid calling balance_level() and avoid reada_for_balance() when a balance won't be required. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-02-04Btrfs: fix btrfs_unlock_up_safe to walk the entire pathChris Mason
btrfs_unlock_up_safe would break out at the first NULL node entry or unlocked node it found in the path. Some of the callers have missing nodes at the lower levels of the path, so this commit fixes things to check all the nodes in the path before returning.

2009-02-04Btrfs: change btrfs_del_leaf to drop locks earlierChris Mason
btrfs_del_leaf does two things. First it removes the pointer in the parent, and then it frees the block that has the leaf. It has the parent node locked for both operations. But, it only needs the parent locked while it is deleting the pointer. After that it can safely free the block without the parent locked. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-02-04Btrfs: Change btrfs_truncate_inode_items to stop when it hits the inodeChris Mason
btrfs_truncate_inode_items is setup to stop doing btree searches when it has finished removing the items for the inode. It used to detect the end of the inode by looking for an objectid that didn't match the one we were searching for. But, this would result in an extra search through the btree, which adds extra balancing and cow costs to the operation. This commit adds a check to see if we found the inode item, which means we can stop searching early. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-02-04Btrfs: Don't try to compress pages past i_sizeChris Mason
The compression code had some checks to make sure we were only compressing bytes inside of i_size, but it wasn't catching every case. To make things worse, some incorrect math about the number of bytes remaining would make it try to compress more pages than the file really had. The fix used here is to fall back to the non-compression code in this case, which does all the proper cleanup of delalloc and other accounting. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-02-04Btrfs: join the transaction in __btrfs_setxattrJosef Bacik
With selinux on we end up calling __btrfs_setxattr when we create an inode, which calls btrfs_start_transaction(). The problem is we've already called that in btrfs_new_inode, and in btrfs_start_transaction we end up doing a wait_current_trans(). If btrfs-transaction has started committing it will wait for all handles to finish, while the other process is waiting for the transaction to commit. This is fixed by using btrfs_join_transaction, which won't wait for the transaction to commit. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com>

2009-02-04Btrfs: Make btrfs_drop_snapshot work in larger and more efficient chunksChris Mason
Every transaction in btrfs creates a new snapshot, and then schedules the snapshot from the last transaction for deletion. Snapshot deletion works by walking down the btree and dropping the reference counts on each btree block during the walk. If if a given leaf or node has a reference count greater than one, the reference count is decremented and the subtree pointed to by that node is ignored. If the reference count is one, walking continues down into that node or leaf, and the references of everything it points to are decremented. The old code would try to work in small pieces, walking down the tree until it found the lowest leaf or node to free and then returning. This was very friendly to the rest of the FS because it didn't have a huge impact on other operations. But it wouldn't always keep up with the rate that new commits added new snapshots for deletion, and it wasn't very optimal for the extent allocation tree because it wasn't finding leaves that were close together on disk and processing them at the same time. This changes things to walk down to a level 1 node and then process it in bulk. All the leaf pointers are sorted and the leaves are dropped in order based on their extent number. The extent allocation tree and commit code are now fast enough for this kind of bulk processing to work without slowing the rest of the FS down. Overall it does less IO and is better able to keep up with snapshot deletions under high load. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-02-04Btrfs: Change btree locking to use explicit blocking pointsChris Mason
Most of the btrfs metadata operations can be protected by a spinlock, but some operations still need to schedule. So far, btrfs has been using a mutex along with a trylock loop, most of the time it is able to avoid going for the full mutex, so the trylock loop is a big performance gain. This commit is step one for getting rid of the blocking locks entirely. btrfs_tree_lock takes a spinlock, and the code explicitly switches to a blocking lock when it starts an operation that can schedule. We'll be able get rid of the blocking locks in smaller pieces over time. Tracing allows us to find the most common cause of blocking, so we can start with the hot spots first. The basic idea is: btrfs_tree_lock() returns with the spin lock held btrfs_set_lock_blocking() sets the EXTENT_BUFFER_BLOCKING bit in the extent buffer flags, and then drops the spin lock. The buffer is still considered locked by all of the btrfs code. If btrfs_tree_lock gets the spinlock but finds the blocking bit set, it drops the spin lock and waits on a wait queue for the blocking bit to go away. Much of the code that needs to set the blocking bit finishes without actually blocking a good percentage of the time. So, an adaptive spin is still used against the blocking bit to avoid very high context switch rates. btrfs_clear_lock_blocking() clears the blocking bit and returns with the spinlock held again. btrfs_tree_unlock() can be called on either blocking or spinning locks, it does the right thing based on the blocking bit. ctree.c has a helper function to set/clear all the locked buffers in a path as blocking.

2009-02-04Btrfs: hash_lock is no longer neededChris Mason
Before metadata is written to disk, it is updated to reflect that writeout has begun. Once this update is done, the block must be cow'd before it can be modified again. This update was originally synchronized by using a per-fs spinlock. Today the buffers for the metadata blocks are locked before writeout begins, and everyone that tests the flag has the buffer locked as well. So, the per-fs spinlock (called hash_lock for no good reason) is no longer required. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-02-04Btrfs: disable leak debugging checks in extent_io.cChris Mason
extent_io.c has debugging code to report and free leaked extent_state and extent_buffer objects at rmmod time. This helps track down leaks and it saves you from rebooting just to properly remove the kmem_cache object. But, the code runs under a fairly expensive spinlock and the checks to see if it is currently enabled are not entirely consistent. Some use #ifdef and some #if. This changes everything to #if and disables the leak checking. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-02-04Btrfs: sort references by byte number during btrfs_inc_refChris Mason
When a block goes through cow, we update the reference counts of everything that block points to. The internal pointers of the block can be in just about any order, and it is likely to have clusters of things that are close together and clusters of things that are not. To help reduce the seeks that come with updating all of these reference counts, sort them by byte number before actual updates are done. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-02-04Btrfs: async threads should try harder to find workChris Mason
Tracing shows the delay between when an async thread goes to sleep and when more work is added is often very short. This commit adds a little bit of delay and extra checking to the code right before we schedule out. It allows more work to be added to the worker without requiring notifications from other procs.

2009-01-28Btrfs: fix readdir on 32 bit machinesChris Mason
After btrfs_readdir has gone through all the directory items, it sets the directory f_pos to the largest possible int. This way applications that mix readdir with creating new files don't end up in an endless loop finding the new directory items as they go. It was a workaround for a bug in git, but the assumption was that if git could make this looping mistake than it would be a common problem. The largest possible int chosen was INT_LIMIT(typeof(file->f_pos), and it is possible for that to be a larger number than 32 bit glibc expects to come out of readdir. This patches switches that to INT_LIMIT(off_t), which should keep applications happy on 32 and 64 bit machines. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2009-01-27nfsd: only set file_lock.fl_lmops in nfsd4_lockt if a stateowner is foundJeff Layton
nfsd4_lockt does a search for a lockstateowner when building the lock struct to test. If one is found, it'll set fl_owner to it. Regardless of whether that happens, it'll also set fl_lmops. Given that this lock is basically a "lightweight" lock that's just used for checking conflicts, setting fl_lmops is probably not appropriate for it. This behavior exposed a bug in DLM's GETLK implementation where it wasn't clearing out the fields in the file_lock before filling in conflicting lock info. While we were able to fix this in DLM, it still seems pointless and dangerous to set the fl_lmops this way when we may have a NULL lockstateowner.

2009-01-26inotify: clean up inotify_read and fix locking problemsVegard Nossum
If userspace supplies an invalid pointer to a read() of an inotify instance, the inotify device's event list mutex is unlocked twice. This causes an unbalance which effectively leaves the data structure unprotected, and we can trigger oopses by accessing the inotify instance from different tasks concurrently. The best fix (contributed largely by Linus) is a total rewrite of the function in question: On Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 7:05 AM, Linus Torvalds wrote: > The thing to notice is that: > > - locking is done in just one place, and there is no question about it > not having an unlock. > > - that whole double-while(1)-loop thing is gone. > > - use multiple functions to make nesting and error handling sane > > - do error testing after doing the things you always need to do, ie do > this: > > mutex_lock(..) > ret = function_call(); > mutex_unlock(..) > > .. test ret here .. > > instead of doing conditional exits with unlocking or freeing. > > So if the code is written in this way, it may still be buggy, but at least > it's not buggy because of subtle "forgot to unlock" or "forgot to free" > issues. > > This _always_ unlocks if it locked, and it always frees if it got a > non-error kevent.

2009-01-22Btrfs: do less aggressive btree readaheadChris Mason
Just before reading a leaf, btrfs scans the node for blocks that are close by and reads them too. It tries to build up a large window of IO looking for blocks that are within a max distance from the top and bottom of the IO window. This patch changes things to just look for blocks within 64k of the target block. It will trigger less IO and make for lower latencies on the read size.
