Add checking for the path component length and verify it is <= the maximum
that the server advertizes via FileFsAttributeInformation.
With this patch cifs.ko will now return ENAMETOOLONG instead of ENOENT
when users to access an overlong path.
To test this, try to cd into a (non-existing) directory on a CIFS share
that has a too long name:
cd /mnt/aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
and it now should show a good error message from the shell:
bash: cd: /mnt/aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...aaaaaa: File name too long

The df for a SMB2 share triggers a GetInfo call for
FS_FULL_SIZE_INFORMATION. The values returned are used to populate
struct statfs.
The problem is that none of the information returned by the call
contains the total blocks available on the filesystem. Instead we use
the blocks available to the user ie. quota limitation when filling out
statfs.f_blocks. The information returned does contain Actual free units
on the filesystem and is used to populate statfs.f_bfree. For users with
quota enabled, it can lead to situations where the total free space
reported is more than the total blocks on the system ending up with df
reports like the following
# df -h /mnt/a
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
//192.168.22.10/a 2.5G -2.3G 2.5G - /mnt/a
To fix this problem, we instead populate both statfs.f_bfree with the
same value as statfs.f_bavail ie. CallerAvailableAllocationUnits. This
is similar to what is done already in the code for cifs and df now
reports the quota information for the user used to mount the share.
# df --si /mnt/a
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
//192.168.22.10/a 2.7G 101M 2.6G 4% /mnt/a

In a filesystem without finobt, the Space manager selects an AG to alloc a new
inode, where xfs_dialloc_ag_inobt() will search the AG for the free slot chunk.
When the new inode is in the same AG as its parent, the btree will be searched
starting on the parent's record, and then retried from the top if no slot is
available beyond the parent's record.
To exit this loop though, xfs_dialloc_ag_inobt() relies on the fact that the
btree must have a free slot available, once its callers relied on the
agi->freecount when deciding how/where to allocate this new inode.
In the case when the agi->freecount is corrupted, showing available inodes in an
AG, when in fact there is none, this becomes an infinite loop.
Add a way to stop the loop when a free slot is not found in the btree, making
the function to fall into the whole AG scan which will then, be able to detect
the corruption and shut the filesystem down.
As pointed by Brian, this might impact performance, giving the fact we
don't reset the search distance anymore when we reach the end of the
tree, giving it fewer tries before falling back to the whole AG search, but
it will only affect searches that start within 10 records to the end of the tree.

Torn write and tail overwrite detection both trigger only on
-EFSBADCRC errors. While this is the most likely failure scenario
for each condition, -EFSCORRUPTED is still possible in certain cases
depending on what ends up on disk when a torn write or partial tail
overwrite occurs. For example, an invalid log record h_len can lead
to an -EFSCORRUPTED error when running the log recovery CRC pass.
Therefore, update log head and tail verification to trigger the
associated head/tail fixups in the event of -EFSCORRUPTED errors
along with -EFSBADCRC. Also, -EFSCORRUPTED can currently be returned
from xlog_do_recovery_pass() before rhead_blk is initialized if the
first record encountered happens to be corrupted. This leads to an
incorrect 'first_bad' return value. Initialize rhead_blk earlier in
the function to address that problem as well.

Add an error injection tag to force log items in the AIL to the
pinned state. This option can be used by test infrastructure to
induce head behind tail conditions. Specifically, this is intended
to be used by xfstests to reproduce log recovery problems after
failed/corrupted log writes overwrite the last good tail LSN in the
log.
When enabled, AIL push attempts see log items in the AIL in the
pinned state. This stalls metadata writeback and thus prevents the
current tail of the log from moving forward. When disabled,
subsequent AIL pushes observe the log items in their appropriate
state and filesystem operation continues as normal.

If we consider the case where the tail (T) of the log is pinned long
enough for the head (H) to push and block behind the tail, we can
end up blocked in the following state without enough free space (f)
in the log to satisfy a transaction reservation:
0 phys. log N
[-------HffT---H'--T'---]
The last good record in the log (before H) refers to T. The tail
eventually pushes forward (T') leaving more free space in the log
for writes to H. At this point, suppose space frees up in the log
for the maximum of 8 in-core log buffers to start flushing out to
the log. If this pushes the head from H to H', these next writes
overwrite the previous tail T. This is safe because the items logged
from T to T' have been written back and removed from the AIL.
If the next log writes (H -> H') happen to fail and result in
partial records in the log, the filesystem shuts down having
overwritten T with invalid data. Log recovery correctly locates H on
the subsequent mount, but H still refers to the now corrupted tail
T. This results in log corruption errors and recovery failure.
Since the tail overwrite results from otherwise correct runtime
behavior, it is up to log recovery to try and deal with this
situation. Update log recovery tail verification to run a CRC pass
from the first record past the tail to the head. This facilitates
error detection at T and moves the recovery tail to the first good
record past H' (similar to truncating the head on torn write
detection). If corruption is detected beyond the range possibly
affected by the max number of iclogs, the log is legitimately
corrupted and log recovery failure is expected.

Log tail verification currently only occurs when torn writes are
detected at the head of the log. This was introduced because a
change in the head block due to torn writes can lead to a change in
the tail block (each log record header references the current tail)
and the tail block should be verified before log recovery proceeds.
Tail corruption is possible outside of torn write scenarios,
however. For example, partial log writes can be detected and cleared
during the initial head/tail block discovery process. If the partial
write coincides with a tail overwrite, the log tail is corrupted and
recovery fails.
To facilitate correct handling of log tail overwites, update log
recovery to always perform tail verification. This is necessary to
detect potential tail overwrite conditions when torn writes may not
have occurred. This changes normal (i.e., no torn writes) recovery
behavior slightly to detect and return CRC related errors near the
tail before actual recovery starts.

The high-level log recovery algorithm consists of two loops that
walk the physical log and process log records from the tail to the
head. The first loop handles the case where the tail is beyond the
head and processes records up to the end of the physical log. The
subsequent loop processes records from the beginning of the physical
log to the head.
Because log records can wrap around the end of the physical log, the
first loop mentioned above must handle this case appropriately.
Records are processed from in-core buffers, which means that this
algorithm must split the reads of such records into two partial
I/Os: 1.) from the beginning of the record to the end of the log and
2.) from the beginning of the log to the end of the record. This is
further complicated by the fact that the log record header and log
record data are read into independent buffers.
The current handling of each buffer correctly splits the reads when
either the header or data starts before the end of the log and wraps
around the end. The data read does not correctly handle the case
where the prior header read wrapped or ends on the physical log end
boundary. blk_no is incremented to or beyond the log end after the
header read to point to the record data, but the split data read
logic triggers, attempts to read from an invalid log block and
ultimately causes log recovery to fail. This can be reproduced
fairly reliably via xfstests tests generic/047 and generic/388 with
large iclog sizes (256k) and small (10M) logs.
If the record header read has pushed beyond the end of the physical
log, the subsequent data read is actually contiguous. Update the
data read logic to detect the case where blk_no has wrapped, mod it
against the log size to read from the correct address and issue one
contiguous read for the log data buffer. The log record is processed
as normal from the buffer(s), the loop exits after the current
iteration and the subsequent loop picks up with the first new record
after the start of the log.

When a buffer has been failed during writeback, the inode items into it
are kept flush locked, and are never resubmitted due the flush lock, so,
if any buffer fails to be written, the items in AIL are never written to
disk and never unlocked.
This causes unmount operation to hang due these items flush locked in AIL,
but this also causes the items in AIL to never be written back, even when
the IO device comes back to normal.
I've been testing this patch with a DM-thin device, creating a
filesystem larger than the real device.
When writing enough data to fill the DM-thin device, XFS receives ENOSPC
errors from the device, and keep spinning on xfsaild (when 'retry
forever' configuration is set).
At this point, the filesystem can not be unmounted because of the flush locked
items in AIL, but worse, the items in AIL are never retried at all
(once xfs_inode_item_push() will skip the items that are flush locked),
even if the underlying DM-thin device is expanded to the proper size.
This patch fixes both cases, retrying any item that has been failed
previously, using the infra-structure provided by the previous patch.

With the current code, XFS never re-submit a failed buffer for IO,
because the failed item in the buffer is kept in the flush locked state
forever.
To be able to resubmit an log item for IO, we need a way to mark an item
as failed, if, for any reason the buffer which the item belonged to
failed during writeback.
Add a new log item callback to be used after an IO completion failure
and make the needed clean ups.

When we do log recovery on a readonly mount, unlinked inode
processing does not happen due to the readonly checks in
xfs_inactive(), which are trying to prevent any I/O on a
readonly mount.
This is misguided - we do I/O on readonly mounts all the time,
for consistency; for example, log recovery. So do the same
RDONLY flag twiddling around xfs_log_mount_finish() as we
do around xfs_log_mount(), for the same reason.
This all cries out for a big rework but for now this is a
simple fix to an obvious problem.

There are dueling comments in the xfs code about intent
for log writes when unmounting a readonly filesystem.
In xfs_mountfs, we see the intent:
/*
* Now the log is fully replayed, we can transition to full read-only
* mode for read-only mounts. This will sync all the metadata and clean
* the log so that the recovery we just performed does not have to be
* replayed again on the next mount.
*/
and it calls xfs_quiesce_attr(), but by the time we get to
xfs_log_unmount_write(), it returns early for a RDONLY mount:
* Don't write out unmount record on read-only mounts.
Because of this, sequential ro mounts of a filesystem with
a dirty log will replay the log each time, which seems odd.
Fix this by writing an unmount record even for RO mounts, as long
as norecovery wasn't specified (don't write a clean log record
if a dirty log may still be there!) and the log device is
writable.

Commit d618ebaf0aa8 ("f2fs: enable small discard by default") enables
f2fs to issue 4K size discard in real-time discard mode. However, issuing
smaller discard may cost more lifetime but releasing less free space in
flash device. Since f2fs has ability of separating hot/cold data and
garbage collection, we can expect that small-sized invalid region would
expand soon with OPU, deletion or garbage collection on valid datas, so
it's better to delay or skip issuing smaller size discards, it could help
to reduce overmuch consumption of IO bandwidth and lifetime of flash
storage.
This patch makes f2fs selectng 64K size as its default minimal
granularity, and issue discard with the size which is not smaller than
minimal granularity. Also it exposes discard granularity as sysfs entry
for configuration in different scenario.
Jaegeuk Kim:
We must issue all the accumulated discard commands when fstrim is called.
So, I've added pend_list_tag[] to indicate whether we should issue the
commands or not. If tag sets P_ACTIVE or P_TRIM, we have to issue them.
P_TRIM is set once at a time, given fstrim trigger.
In addition, issue_discard_thread is calling too much due to the number of
discard commands remaining in the pending list. I added a timer to control
it likewise gc_thread.

Commit 38851cc19adb ("Btrfs: implement unlocked dio write") implemented
unlocked dio write, allowing multiple dio writers to write to
non-overlapping, and non-eof-extending regions. In doing so it also
introduced a broken memory barrier. It is broken due to 2 things:
1. Memory barriers _MUST_ always be paired, this is clearly not the case
here
2. Checkpatch actually produces a warning if a memory barrier is
introduced that doesn't have a comment explaining how it's being
paired.
Specifically for inode::i_dio_count that's wrapped inside
inode_dio_begin, there is no explicit barrier semantics attached, so
removing is fine as the atomic is used in common the waiter/wakeup
pattern.

btrfs_alloc_dev_extent currently unconditionally sets the uuid in the
leaf block header the function is working with. This is unnecessary
since this operation is peformed by the core btree handling code
(splitting a node, allocating a new btree block etc). So let's remove
it.

This patch provides a band aid to improve the 'out of the box'
behaviour of btrfs for disks that are detected as being an ssd. In a
general purpose mixed workload scenario, the current ssd mode causes
overallocation of available raw disk space for data, while leaving
behind increasing amounts of unused fragmented free space. This
situation leads to early ENOSPC problems which are harming user
experience and adoption of btrfs as a general purpose filesystem.
This patch modifies the data extent allocation behaviour of the ssd mode
to make it behave identical to nossd mode. The metadata behaviour and
additional ssd_spread option stay untouched so far.
Recommendations for future development are to reconsider the current
oversimplified nossd / ssd distinction and the broken detection
mechanism based on the rotational attribute in sysfs and provide
experienced users with a more flexible way to choose allocator behaviour
for data and metadata, optimized for certain use cases, while keeping
sane 'out of the box' default settings. The internals of the current
btrfs code have more potential than what currently gets exposed to the
user to choose from.
The SSD story...
In the first year of btrfs development, around early 2008, btrfs
gained a mount option which enables specific functionality for
filesystems on solid state devices. The first occurance of this
functionality is in commit e18e4809, labeled "Add mount -o ssd, which
includes optimizations for seek free storage".
The effect on allocating free space for doing (data) writes is to
'cluster' writes together, writing them out in contiguous space, as
opposed to a 'tetris' way of putting all separate writes into any free
space fragment that fits (which is what the -o nossd behaviour does).
A somewhat simplified explanation of what happens is that, when for
example, the 'cluster' size is set to 2MiB, when we do some writes, the
data allocator will search for a free space block that is 2MiB big, and
put the writes in there. The ssd mode itself might allow a 2MiB cluster
to be composed of multiple free space extents with some existing data in
between, while the additional ssd_spread mount option kills off this
option and requires fully free space.
The idea behind this is (commit 536ac8ae): "The [...] clusters make it
more likely a given IO will completely overwrite the ssd block, so it
doesn't have to do an internal rwm cycle."; ssd block meaning nand erase
block. So, effectively this means applying a "locality based algorithm"
and trying to outsmart the actual ssd.
Since then, various changes have been made to the involved code, but the
basic idea is still present, and gets activated whenever the ssd mount
option is active. This also happens by default, when the rotational flag
as seen at /sys/block/<device>/queue/rotational is set to 0.
However, there's a number of problems with this approach.
First, what the optimization is trying to do is outsmart the ssd by
assuming there is a relation between the physical address space of the
block device as seen by btrfs and the actual physical storage of the
ssd, and then adjusting data placement. However, since the introduction
of the Flash Translation Layer (FTL) which is a part of the internal
controller of an ssd, these attempts are futile. The use of good quality
FTL in consumer ssd products might have been limited in 2008, but this
situation has changed drastically soon after that time. Today, even the
flash memory in your automatic cat feeding machine or your grandma's
wheelchair has a full featured one.
Second, the behaviour as described above results in the filesystem being
filled up with badly fragmented free space extents because of relatively
small pieces of space that are freed up by deletes, but not selected
again as part of a 'cluster'. Since the algorithm prefers allocating a
new chunk over going back to tetris mode, the end result is a filesystem
in which all raw space is allocated, but which is composed of
underutilized chunks with a 'shotgun blast' pattern of fragmented free
space. Usually, the next problematic thing that happens is the
filesystem wanting to allocate new space for metadata, which causes the
filesystem to fail in spectacular ways.
Third, the default mount options you get for an ssd ('ssd' mode enabled,
'discard' not enabled), in combination with spreading out writes over
the full address space and ignoring freed up space leads to worst case
behaviour in providing information to the ssd itself, since it will
never learn that all the free space left behind is actually free. There
are two ways to let an ssd know previously written data does not have to
be preserved, which are sending explicit signals using discard or
fstrim, or by simply overwriting the space with new data. The worst
case behaviour is the btrfs ssd_spread mount option in combination with
not having discard enabled. It has a side effect of minimizing the reuse
of free space previously written in.
Fourth, the rotational flag in /sys/ does not reliably indicate if the
device is a locally attached ssd. For example, iSCSI or NBD displays as
non-rotational, while a loop device on an ssd shows up as rotational.
The combination of the second and third problem effectively means that
despite all the good intentions, the btrfs ssd mode reliably causes the
ssd hardware and the filesystem structures and performance to be choked
to death. The clickbait version of the title of this story would have
been "Btrfs ssd optimizations considered harmful for ssds".
The current nossd 'tetris' mode (even still without discard) allows a
pattern of overwriting much more previously used space, causing many
more implicit discards to happen because of the overwrite information
the ssd gets. The actual location in the physical address space, as seen
from the point of view of btrfs is irrelevant, because the actual writes
to the low level flash are reordered anyway thanks to the FTL.
Changes made in the code
1. Make ssd mode data allocation identical to tetris mode, like nossd.
2. Adjust and clean up filesystem mount messages so that we can easily
identify if a kernel has this patch applied or not, when providing
support to end users. Also, make better use of the *_and_info helpers to
only trigger messages on actual state changes.
Backporting notes
Notes for whoever wants to backport this patch to their 4.9 LTS kernel:
* First apply commit 951e7966 "btrfs: drop the nossd flag when
remounting with -o ssd", or fixup the differences manually.
* The rest of the conflicts are because of the fs_info refactoring. So,
for example, instead of using fs_info, it's root->fs_info in
extent-tree.c

Although this bio has no data attached, it will reach this condition
(bio->bi_opf & REQ_PREFLUSH) and then update the flush_gen of dev_state
in __btrfsic_submit_bio. So we should still submit it through integrity
checker. Otherwise, the integrity checker will throw the following warning
when I mount a newly created btrfs filesystem.
