2014-05-20xfs: log vector rounding leaks log spaceDave Chinner1-6/+13
The addition of direct formatting of log items into the CIL linear buffer added alignment restrictions that the start of each vector needed to be 64 bit aligned. Hence padding was added in xlog_finish_iovec() to round up the vector length to ensure the next vector started with the correct alignment. This adds a small number of bytes to the size of the linear buffer that is otherwise unused. The issue is that we then use the linear buffer size to determine the log space used by the log item, and this includes the unused space. Hence when we account for space used by the log item, it's more than is actually written into the iclogs, and hence we slowly leak this space. This results on log hangs when reserving space, with threads getting stuck with these stack traces: Call Trace: [<ffffffff81d15989>] schedule+0x29/0x70 [<ffffffff8150d3a2>] xlog_grant_head_wait+0xa2/0x1a0 [<ffffffff8150d55d>] xlog_grant_head_check+0xbd/0x140 [<ffffffff8150ee33>] xfs_log_reserve+0x103/0x220 [<ffffffff814b7f05>] xfs_trans_reserve+0x2f5/0x310 ..... The 4 bytes is significant. Brain Foster did all the hard work in tracking down a reproducable leak to inode chunk allocation (it went away with the ikeep mount option). His rough numbers were that creating 50,000 inodes leaked 11 log blocks. This turns out to be roughly 800 inode chunks or 1600 inode cluster buffers. That works out at roughly 4 bytes per cluster buffer logged, and at that I started looking for a 4 byte leak in the buffer logging code. What I found was that a struct xfs_buf_log_format structure for an inode cluster buffer is 28 bytes in length. This gets rounded up to 32 bytes, but the vector length remains 28 bytes. Hence the CIL ticket reservation is decremented by 32 bytes (via lv->lv_buf_len) for that vector rather than 28 bytes which are written into the log. The fix for this problem is to separately track the bytes used by the log vectors in the item and use that instead of the buffer length when accounting for the log space that will be used by the formatted log item. Again, thanks to Brian Foster for doing all the hard work and long hours to isolate this leak and make finding the bug relatively simple.

2013-12-13xfs: format log items write directly into the linear CIL bufferChristoph Hellwig1-4/+37
Instead of setting up pointers to memory locations in iop_format which then get copied into the CIL linear buffer after return move the copy into the individual inode items. This avoids the need to always have a memory block in the exact same layout that gets written into the log around, and allow the log items to be much more flexible in their in-memory layouts. The only caveat is that we need to properly align the data for each iovec so that don't have structures misaligned in subsequent iovecs. Note that all log item format routines now need to be careful to modify the copy of the item that was placed into the CIL after calls to xlog_copy_iovec instead of the in-memory copy.

2013-10-23xfs: decouple log and transaction headersDave Chinner1-8/+2
xfs_trans.h has a dependency on xfs_log.h for a couple of structures. Most code that does transactions doesn't need to know anything about the log, but this dependency means that they have to include xfs_log.h. Decouple the xfs_trans.h and xfs_log.h header files and clean up the includes to be in dependency order. In doing this, remove the direct include of xfs_trans_reserve.h from xfs_trans.h so that we remove the dependency between xfs_trans.h and xfs_mount.h. Hence the xfs_trans.h include can be moved to the indicate the actual dependencies other header files have on it.

Introduce the inode create log item type for logical inode create logging. Instead of logging the changes in buffers, pass the range to be initialised through the log by a new transaction type. This reduces the amount of log space required to record initialisation during allocation from about 128 bytes per inode to a small fixed amount per inode extent to be initialised. This requires a new log item type to track it through the log and the AIL. This is a relatively simple item - most callbacks are noops as this item has the same life cycle as the transaction.

2013-06-27xfs: Introduce ordered log vector supportDave Chinner1-0/+2
And "ordered log vector" is a log vector that is used for tracking a log item through the CIL and into the AIL as part of the log checkpointing. These ordered log vectors are special in that they are not written to to journal in any way, and are not accounted to the checkpoint being written. The reason for this behaviour is to allow operations to attach items to transactions and have them follow the normal transactional lifecycle without actually having to write them to the journal. This allows logging of items that track high level logical changes and writing them to the log, while the physical items being modified pass through into the AIL and pin the tail of the log (and therefore the logical item in the log) until all the modified items are physically written to disk. IOWs, it allows us to write metadata without physically logging every individual change but still maintain the full transactional integrity guarantees we currently have w.r.t. crash recovery. This change modifies some of the CIL item insertion loops, as ordered log vectors introduce some new constraints as they don't track any data. One advantage of this change is that it combines two log vector chain walks into a single pass, so there is less overhead in the transaction commit pass as well. It also kills some unused code in the log vector walk loop when committing the CIL.

2012-02-22xfs: split tail_lsn assignments from log space wakeupsChristoph Hellwig1-2/+3
Currently xfs_log_move_tail has a tail_lsn argument that is horribly overloaded: it may contain either an actual lsn to assign to the log tail, 0 as a special case to use the last sync LSN, or 1 to indicate that no tail LSN assignment should be performed, and we should opportunisticly wake up at one task waiting for log space even if we did not move the LSN. Remove the tail lsn assigned from xfs_log_move_tail and make the two callers use xlog_assign_tail_lsn instead of the current variant of partially using the code in xfs_log_move_tail and partially opencoding it. Note that means we grow an addition lock roundtrip on the AIL lock for each bulk update or delete, which is still far less than what we had before introducing the bulk operations. If this proves to be a problem we can still add a variant of xlog_assign_tail_lsn that expects the lock to be held already. Also rename the remainder of xfs_log_move_tail to xfs_log_space_wake as that name describes its functionality much better.

2010-05-24xfs: Ensure inode allocation buffers are fully replayedDave Chinner1-0/+1
With delayed logging, we can get inode allocation buffers in the same transaction inode unlink buffers. We don't currently mark inode allocation buffers in the log, so inode unlink buffers take precedence over allocation buffers. The result is that when they are combined into the same checkpoint, only the unlinked inode chain fields are replayed, resulting in uninitialised inode buffers being detected when the next inode modification is replayed. To fix this, we need to ensure that we do not set the inode buffer flag in the buffer log item format flags if the inode allocation has not already hit the log. To avoid requiring a change to log recovery, we really need to make this a modification that relies only on in-memory sate. We can do this by checking during buffer log formatting (while the CIL cannot be flushed) if we are still in the same sequence when we commit the unlink transaction as the inode allocation transaction. If we are, then we do not add the inode buffer flag to the buffer log format item flags. This means the entire buffer will be replayed, not just the unlinked fields. We do this while CIL flusheѕ are locked out to ensure that we don't race with the sequence numbers changing and hence fail to put the inode buffer flag in the buffer format flags when we really need to.

2010-05-24xfs: Introduce delayed logging core codeDave Chinner1-1/+8
The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that should not be used in production yet. We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List (CIL) is for. The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable this tracking. To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space log required/used by the context checkpoint. To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item, rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL. Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point back at the memory buffer we just copied into. This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it again. The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update all the tickets, counters, etc correctly. Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time. Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event. Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during Io completion to complete the checkpoint. We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with. To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

writes. In addition flush the disk cache on fsync if the sync cached operation didn't sync the log to disk (this requires some additional bookeping in the transaction and log code). If the device doesn't claim to support barriers, the filesystem has an extern log volume or the trial superblock write with barriers enabled failed we disable barriers and print a warning. We should probably fail the mount completely, but that could lead to nasty boot failures for the root filesystem. Not enabled by default yet, needs more destructive testing first.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
