ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start()
So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass context information for logging purposes. The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is: T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter echo 1 > $EVENT/enable ./run-my-fs-benchmark cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms. Having longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an fsync() or an O_SYNC operation. Here is an example line from the trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over 1.2 seconds: postmark-2917 [000] .... 196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32 tid 570 type 2 line_no 2541 interval 311 sync 0 requested_blocks 1 dirtied_blocks 0 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
