2009-09-14block: use blkdev_issue_discard in blk_ioctl_discardChristoph Hellwig
blk_ioctl_discard duplicates large amounts of code from blkdev_issue_discard, the only difference between the two is that blkdev_issue_discard needs to send a barrier discard request and blk_ioctl_discard a non-barrier one, and blk_ioctl_discard needs to wait on the request. To facilitates this add a flags argument to blkdev_issue_discard to control both aspects of the behaviour. This will be very useful later on for using the waiting funcitonality for other callers.

2009-09-14Seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requestsNikanth Karthikesan
Currently, there is a single in_flight counter measuring the number of requests in the request_queue. But some monitoring tools would like to know how many read requests and write requests are in progress. Split the current in_flight counter into two seperate counters for read and write. This information is exported as a sysfs attribute, as changing the currently available stat files would break the existing tools.

2009-09-11ext4: Fix initalization of s_flex_groupsTheodore Ts'o
The s_flex_groups array should have been initialized using atomic_add to sum up the free counts from the block groups that make up a flex_bg. By using atomic_set, the value of the s_flex_groups array was set to the values of the last block group in the flex_bg. The impact of this bug is that the block and inode allocation algorithms might not pick the best flex_bg for new allocation. Thanks to Damien Guibouret for pointing out this problem!

2009-09-11Btrfs: zero page past end of inline file itemsChris Mason
When btrfs_get_extent is reading inline file items for readpage, it needs to copy the inline extent into the page. If the inline extent doesn't cover all of the page, that means there is a hole in the file, or that our file is smaller than one page. readpage does zeroing for the case where the file is smaller than one page, but nobody is currently zeroing for the case where there is a hole after the inline item. This commit changes btrfs_get_extent to zero fill the page past the end of the inline item. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2009-09-11Btrfs: Fix extent replacment raceChris Mason
Data COW means that whenever we write to a file, we replace any old extent pointers with new ones. There was a window where a readpage might find the old extent pointers on disk and cache them in the extent_map tree in ram in the middle of a given write replacing them. Even though both the readpage and the write had their respective bytes in the file locked, the extent readpage inserts may cover more bytes than it had locked down. This commit closes the race by keeping the new extent pinned in the extent map tree until after the on-disk btree is properly setup with the new extent pointers.

2009-09-11Btrfs: Use PagePrivate2 to track pages in the data=ordered code.Chris Mason
Btrfs writes go through delalloc to the data=ordered code. This makes sure that all of the data is on disk before the metadata that references it. The tracking means that we have to make sure each page in an extent is fully written before we add that extent into the on-disk btree. This was done in the past by setting the EXTENT_ORDERED bit for the range of an extent when it was added to the data=ordered code, and then clearing the EXTENT_ORDERED bit in the extent state tree as each page finished IO. One of the reasons we had to do this was because sometimes pages are magically dirtied without page_mkwrite being called. The EXTENT_ORDERED bit is checked at writepage time, and if it isn't there, our page become dirty without going through the proper path. These bit operations make for a number of rbtree searches for each page, and can cause considerable lock contention. This commit switches from the EXTENT_ORDERED bit to use PagePrivate2. As pages go into the ordered code, PagePrivate2 is set on each one. This is a cheap operation because we already have all the pages locked and ready to go. As IO finishes, the PagePrivate2 bit is cleared and the ordered accoutning is updated for each page. At writepage time, if the PagePrivate2 bit is missing, we go into the writepage fixup code to handle improperly dirtied pages. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: use a cached state for extent state operations during delallocChris Mason
This changes the btrfs code to find delalloc ranges in the extent state tree to use the new state caching code from set/test bit. It reduces one of the biggest causes of rbtree searches in the writeback path. test_range_bit is also modified to take the cached state as a starting point while searching. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: don't lock bits in the extent tree during writepageChris Mason
At writepage time, we have the page locked and we have the extent_map entry for this extent pinned in the extent_map tree. So, the page can't go away and its mapping can't change. There is no need for the extra extent_state lock bits during writepage. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: cache values for locking extentsChris Mason
Many of the btrfs extent state tree users follow the same pattern. They lock an extent range in the tree, do some operation and then unlock. This translates to at least 2 rbtree searches, and maybe more if they are doing operations on the extent state tree. A locked extent in the tree isn't going to be merged or changed, and so we can safely return the extent state structure as a cached handle. This changes set_extent_bit to give back a cached handle, and also changes both set_extent_bit and clear_extent_bit to use the cached handle if it is available. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: reduce CPU usage in the extent_state treeChris Mason
Btrfs is currently mirroring some of the page state bits into its extent state tree. The goal behind this was to use it in supporting blocksizes other than the page size. But, we don't currently support that, and we're using quite a lot of CPU on the rb tree and its spin lock. This commit starts a series of cleanups to reduce the amount of work done in the extent state tree as part of each IO. This commit: * Adds the ability to lock an extent in the state tree and also set other bits. The idea is to do locking and delalloc in one call * Removes the EXTENT_WRITEBACK and EXTENT_DIRTY bits. Btrfs is using a combination of the page bits and the ordered write code for this instead. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: Fix new state initialization orderChris Mason
As the extent state tree is manipulated, there are call backs that are used to take extra actions when different state bits are set or cleared. One example of this is a counter for the total number of delayed allocation bytes in a single inode and in the whole FS. When new states are inserted, this callback is being done before we properly setup the new state. This hasn't caused problems before because the lock bit was always done first, and the existing call backs don't care about the lock bit. This patch makes sure the state is properly setup before using the callback, which is important for later optimizations that do more work without using the lock bit.

2009-09-11Btrfs: switch extent_map to a rw lockChris Mason
There are two main users of the extent_map tree. The first is regular file inodes, where it is evenly spread between readers and writers. The second is the chunk allocation tree, which maps blocks from logical addresses to phyiscal ones, and it is 99.99% reads. The mapping tree is a point of lock contention during heavy IO workloads, so this commit switches things to a rw lock. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: tweak congestion backoffChris Mason
The btrfs io submission thread tries to back off congested devices in favor of rotating off to another disk. But, it tries to make sure it submits at least some IO before rotating on (the others may be congested too), and so it has a magic number of requests it tries to write before it hops. This makes the magic number smaller. Testing shows that we're spending too much time on congested devices and leaving the other devices idle. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: use larger nr_to_write for larger extentsChris Mason
When btrfs fills a large delayed allocation extent, it is a good idea to try and convince the write_cache_pages caller to go ahead and write a good chunk of that extent. The extra IO is basically free because we know it is contiguous. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: reduce worker thread spin_lock_irq hold timesChris Mason

2009-09-11Btrfs: keep irqs on more often in the worker threadsChris Mason
The btrfs worker thread spinlock was being used both for the queueing of IO and for the processing of ordered events. The ordered events never happen from end_io handlers, and so they don't need to use the _irq version of spinlocks. This adds a dedicated lock to the ordered lists so they don't have to run with irqs off. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: optimize set extent bitChris Mason
The Btrfs set_extent_bit call currently searches the rbtree every time it needs to find more extent_state objects to fill the requested operation. This adds a simple test with rb_next to see if the next object in the tree was adjacent to the one we just found. If so, we skip the search and just use the next object. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-09-11Btrfs: Allow worker threads to exit when idleChris Mason
The Btrfs worker threads don't currently die off after they have been idle for a while, leading to a lot of threads sitting around doing nothing for each mount. Also, they are unable to start atomically (from end_io hanlders). This commit reworks the worker threads so they can be started from end_io handlers (just setting a flag that asks for a thread to be added at a later date) and so they can exit if they have been idle for a long time.

2009-09-11writeback: switch to per-bdi threads for flushing dataJens Axboe
This gets rid of pdflush for bdi writeout and kupdated style cleaning. pdflush writeout suffers from lack of locality and also requires more threads to handle the same workload, since it has to work in a non-blocking fashion against each queue. This also introduces lumpy behaviour and potential request starvation, since pdflush can be starved for queue access if others are accessing it. A sample ffsb workload that does random writes to files is about 8% faster here on a simple SATA drive during the benchmark phase.

2009-09-11ext4: Fix async commit mode to be safe by using a barrierTheodore Ts'o
Previously the journal_async_commit mount option was equivalent to using barrier=0 (and just as unsafe). This patch fixes it so that we eliminate the barrier before the commit block (by not using ordered mode), and explicitly issuing an empty barrier bio after writing the commit block. Because of the journal checksum, it is safe to do this; if the journal blocks are not all written before a power failure, the checksum in the commit block will prevent the last transaction from being replayed. Using the fs_mark benchmark, using journal_async_commit shows a 50% improvement: FSUse% Count Size Files/sec App Overhead 8 1000 10240 30.5 28242 vs. FSUse% Count Size Files/sec App Overhead 8 1000 10240 45.8 28620 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2009-09-10binfmt_elf: fix PT_INTERP bss handlingRoland McGrath
In fs/binfmt_elf.c, load_elf_interp() calls padzero() for .bss even if the PT_LOAD has no PROT_WRITE and no .bss. This generates EFAULT. Here is a small test case. (Yes, there are other, useful PT_INTERP which have only .text and no .data/.bss.) ----- ptinterp.S _start: .globl _start nop int3 ----- $ gcc -m32 -nostartfiles -nostdlib -o ptinterp ptinterp.S $ gcc -m32 -Wl,--dynamic-linker=ptinterp -o hello hello.c $ ./hello Segmentation fault # during execve() itself After applying the patch: $ ./hello Trace trap # user-mode execution after execve() finishes If the ELF headers are actually self-inconsistent, then dying is fine. But having no PROT_WRITE segment is perfectly normal and correct if there is no segment with p_memsz > p_filesz (i.e. bss). John Reiser suggested checking for PROT_WRITE in the bss logic. I think it makes most sense to simply apply the bss logic only when there is bss. This patch looks less trivial than it is due to some reindentation. It just moves the "if (last_bss > elf_bss) {" test up to include the partial-page bss logic as well as the more-pages bss logic.

2009-09-10UBIFS: check ubifs_scan error codes betterArtem Bityutskiy
The 'ubifs_scan()' function returns -EUCLEAN if something is corrupted and recovery is needed, otherwise it returns other error codes. However, in few places UBIFS does not check the error codes and runs recovery. This patch changes this behavior and makes UBIFS start recovery only on -EUCLEAN errors.

2009-09-10UBIFS: do not print scary error messages needlesslyArtem Bityutskiy
At the moment UBIFS print large and scary error messages and flash dumps in case of nearly any corruption, even if it is a recoverable corruption. For example, if the master node is corrupted, ubifs_scan() prints error dumps, then UBIFS recovers just fine and goes on. This patch makes UBIFS print scary error messages only in real cases, which are not recoverable. It adds 'quiet' argument to the 'ubifs_scan()' function, so the caller may ask 'ubi_scan()' not to print error messages if the caller is able to do recovery.

2009-09-09ext4: Clarify the locking details in mballocAneesh Kumar K.V
We don't need to take the alloc_sem lock when we are adding new groups, since mballoc won't see the new group added until we bump sbi->s_groups_count. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2009-09-09ext4: check for need init flag in ext4_mb_load_buddyAneesh Kumar K.V
We should check for need init flag with the group's alloc_sem held, to make sure while we are loading the buddy cache and holding a reference to it, a file system resize can't add new blocks to same group. The patch also drops the need init flag check in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() because doing the check without holding alloc_sem is racy.
