2021-08-20gfs2: don't stop reads while withdraw in progressBob Peterson
When gfs2 withdraws a file system, it calls signal_our_withdraw which triggers another node to replay the withdrawing node's journal. Then it waits until it knows the journal has been replayed. Part of this wait is to repeatedly call check_journal_clean which calls gfs2_jdesc_check, which checks to see if the journal is sane. As part of its sanity checks it needs to re-read its journal's metadata. But with today's code, any attempt to re-read the metadata results in -EIO because of a check for the file system withdraw in function gfs2_meta_wait. This patch adds an additional check for SDF_WITHDRAW_IN_PROG, to tell if the read is done while the withdraw is in progress. In that case we allow the metadata read to not be rejected. Therefore the metadata check is done properly, so the withdraw sequence can finish normally. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

2021-04-03gfs2: don't create empty buffers for NO_CREATEBob Peterson
Before this patch, function gfs2_getbuf would create empty buffers when it was given the NO_CREATE directive from gfs2_journal_wipe. This is a waste of time: the buffer_head is only used by gfs2_remove_from_journal to determine if the buffer is pinned (which it won't be if it's newly created) and if there's an associated bd element (same story). This patch removes the useless buffer assignment. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com>
2020-10-15gfs2: Wipe jdata and ail1 in gfs2_journal_wipe, formerly gfs2_meta_wipeBob Peterson
Before this patch, when blocks were freed, it called gfs2_meta_wipe to take the metadata out of the pending journal blocks. It did this mostly by calling another function called gfs2_remove_from_journal. This is shortsighted because it does not do anything with jdata blocks which may also be in the journal. This patch expands the function so that it wipes out jdata blocks from the journal as well, and it wipes it from the ail1 list if it hasn't been written back yet. Since it now processes jdata blocks as well, the function has been renamed from gfs2_meta_wipe to gfs2_journal_wipe. New function gfs2_ail1_wipe wants a static view of the ail list, so it locks the sd_ail_lock when removing items. To accomplish this, function gfs2_remove_from_journal no longer locks the sd_ail_lock, and it's now the caller's responsibility to do so. I was going to make sd_ail_lock locking conditional, but the practice is generally frowned upon.

2020-05-06gfs2: fix withdraw sequence deadlockBob Peterson
After a gfs2 file system withdraw, any attempt to read metadata is automatically rejected by function gfs2_meta_read() except for reads of the journal inode. This turns out to be a problem because function signal_our_withdraw() repeatedly calls check_journal_clean() which reads the metadata (both its dinode and indirect blocks) to see if the entire journal is mapped. The dinode read works, but reading the indirect blocks returns -EIO which gets sent back up and causes a consistency error. This results in withdraw-from-withdraw, which becomes a deadlock. This patch changes the test in gfs2_meta_read() to allow all metadata reads for the journal. Instead of checking the journal block, it now checks for the journal inode glock which is the same for all blocks in the journal. This allows check_journal_clean() to properly check the journal without trying to withdraw recursively.

2020-02-27gfs2: Force withdraw to replay journals and wait for it to finishBob Peterson
When a node withdraws from a file system, it often leaves its journal in an incomplete state. This is especially true when the withdraw is caused by io errors writing to the journal. Before this patch, a withdraw would try to write a "shutdown" record to the journal, tell dlm it's done with the file system, and none of the other nodes know about the problem. Later, when the problem is fixed and the withdrawn node is rebooted, it would then discover that its own journal was incomplete, and replay it. However, replaying it at this point is almost guaranteed to introduce corruption because the other nodes are likely to have used affected resource groups that appeared in the journal since the time of the withdraw. Replaying the journal later will overwrite any changes made, and not through any fault of dlm, which was instructed during the withdraw to release those resources. This patch makes file system withdraws seen by the entire cluster. Withdrawing nodes dequeue their journal glock to allow recovery. The remaining nodes check all the journals to see if they are clean or in need of replay. They try to replay dirty journals, but only the journals of withdrawn nodes will be "not busy" and therefore available for replay. Until the journal replay is complete, no i/o related glocks may be given out, to ensure that the replay does not cause the aforementioned corruption: We cannot allow any journal replay to overwrite blocks associated with a glock once it is held. The "live" glock which is now used to signal when a withdraw occurs. When a withdraw occurs, the node signals its withdraw by dequeueing the "live" glock and trying to enqueue it in EX mode, thus forcing the other nodes to all see a demote request, by way of a "1CB" (one callback) try lock. The "live" glock is not granted in EX; the callback is only just used to indicate a withdraw has occurred. Note that all nodes in the cluster must wait for the recovering node to finish replaying the withdrawing node's journal before continuing. To this end, it checks that the journals are clean multiple times in a retry loop. Also note that the withdraw function may be called from a wide variety of situations, and therefore, we need to take extra precautions to make sure pointers are valid before using them in many circumstances. We also need to take care when glocks decide to withdraw, since the withdraw code now uses glocks. Also, before this patch, if a process encountered an error and decided to withdraw, if another process was already withdrawing, the second withdraw would be silently ignored, which set it free to unlock its glocks. That's correct behavior if the original withdrawer encounters further errors down the road. But if secondary waiters don't wait for the journal replay, unlocking glocks will allow other nodes to use them, despite the fact that the journal containing those blocks is being replayed. The replay needs to finish before our glocks are released to other nodes. IOW, secondary withdraws need to wait for the first withdraw to finish. For example, if an rgrp glock is unlocked by a process that didn't wait for the first withdraw, a journal replay could introduce file system corruption by replaying a rgrp block that has already been granted to a different cluster node.

In two places, the gfs2_io_error_bh macro is called while holding the sd_ail_lock spin lock. This isn't allowed because gfs2_io_error_bh withdraws the filesystem, which can sleep because it issues a uevent.

2017-08-23block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions indexChristoph Hellwig
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code). For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists once per block device. But given that the block layer also does partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is used for said remapping in generic_make_request. Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all over the stack.

2017-07-21gfs2: add flag REQ_PRIO for metadata I/OColy Li
When gfs2 does metadata I/O, only REQ_META is used as a metadata hint of the bio. But flag REQ_META is just a hint for block trace, not for block layer code to handle a bio as metadata request. For some of metadata I/Os of gfs2, A REQ_PRIO flag on the metadata bio would be very informative to block layer code. For example, if bcache is used as a I/O cache for gfs2, it will be possible for bcache code to get the hint and cache the pre-fetched metadata blocks on cache device. This behavior may be helpful to improve metadata I/O performance if the following requests hit the cache. Here are the locations in gfs2 code where a REQ_PRIO flag should be added, - All places where REQ_READAHEAD is used, gfs2 code uses this flag for metadata read ahead. - In gfs2_meta_rq() where the first metadata block is read in. - In gfs2_write_buf_to_page(), read in quota metadata blocks to have them up to date. These metadata blocks are probably to be accessed again in future, adding a REQ_PRIO flag may have bcache to keep such metadata in fast cache device. For system without a cache layer, REQ_PRIO can still provide hint to block layer to handle metadata requests more properly.

2017-07-17GFS2: Prevent double brelse in gfs2_meta_indirect_bufferBob Peterson
Before this patch, problems reading in indirect buffers would send an IO error back to the caller, and release the buffer_head with brelse() in function gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer, however, it would still return the address of the buffer_head it released. After the error was discovered, function gfs2_block_map would call function release_metapath to free all buffers. That checked: if (mp->mp_bh[i] == NULL) but since the value was set after the error, it was non-zero, so brelse was called a second time. This resulted in the following error: kernel: WARNING: at fs/buffer.c:1224 __brelse+0x3a/0x40() (Tainted: G W -- ------------ ) kernel: Hardware name: RHEV Hypervisor kernel: VFS: brelse: Trying to free free buffer This patch changes gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer so it only sets the buffer_head pointer in cases where it isn't released.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch.

This can be more efficient on some kinds of block devices. Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>
2015-11-16gfs2: Extended attribute readaheadAndreas Gruenbacher
When gfs2 allocates an inode and its extended attribute block next to each other at inode create time, the inode's directory entry indicates that in de_rahead. In that case, we can readahead the extended attribute block when we read in the inode. Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>
2015-09-03GFS2: Move glock superblock pointer to field gl_nameBob Peterson
What uniquely identifies a glock in the glock hash table is not gl_name, but gl_name and its superblock pointer. This patch makes the gl_name field correspond to a unique glock identifier. That will allow us to simplify hashing with a future patch, since the hash algorithm can then take the gl_name and hash its components in one operation.

2014-06-04mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where ↵Mel Gorman
possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.

2014-02-24GFS2: Move log buffer accounting to transactionSteven Whitehouse
Now we have a master transaction into which other transactions are merged, the accounting can be done using this master transaction. We no longer require the superblock fields which were being used for this function. In addition, this allows for a clean up in calc_reserved() making it rather easier understand. Also, by reducing the number of variables used to track the buffers being added and removed from the journal, a number of error checks are now no longer required.

2014-01-03GFS2: Use only a single address space for rgrpsSteven Whitehouse
Prior to this patch, GFS2 had one address space for each rgrp, stored in the glock. This patch changes them to use a single address space in the super block. This therefore saves (sizeof(struct address_space) * nr_of_rgrps) bytes of memory and for large filesystems, that can be significant. It would be nice to be able to do something similar and merge the inode metadata address space into the same global address space. However, that is rather more complicated as the on-disk location doesn't have a 1:1 mapping with the inodes in general. So while it could be done, it will be a more complicated operation as it requires changing a lot more code paths. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2013-12-13GFS2: Fix slab memory leak in gfs2_bufdataBob Peterson
This patch fixes a slab memory leak that sometimes can occur for files with a very short lifespan. The problem occurs when a dinode is deleted before it has gotten to the journal properly. In the leak scenario, the bd object is pinned for journal committment (queued to the metadata buffers queue: sd_log_le_buf) but is subsequently unpinned and dequeued before it finds its way to the ail or the revoke queue. In this rare circumstance, the bd object needs to be freed from slab memory, or it is forgotten. We have to be very careful how we do it, though, because multiple processes can call gfs2_remove_from_journal. In order to avoid double-frees, only the process that does the unpinning is allowed to free the bd.

2013-06-19GFS2: aggressively issue revokes in gfs2_log_flushBenjamin Marzinski
This patch looks at all the outstanding blocks in all the transactions on the log, and moves the completed ones to the ail2 list. Then it issues revokes for these blocks. This will hopefully speed things up in situations where there is a lot of contention for glocks, especially if they are acquired serially. revoke_lo_before_commit will issue at most one log block's full of these preemptive revokes. The amount of reserved log space that gfs2_log_reserve() ignores has been incremented to allow for this extra block. This patch also consolidates the common revoke instructions into one function, gfs2_add_revoke().

2013-04-08GFS2: replace gfs2_ail structure with gfs2_transBenjamin Marzinski
In order to allow transactions and log flushes to happen at the same time, gfs2 needs to move the transaction accounting and active items list code into the gfs2_trans structure. As a first step toward this, this patch removes the gfs2_ail structure, and handles the active items list in the gfs_trans structure. This keeps gfs2 from allocating an ail structure on log flushes, and gives us a struture that can later be used to store the transaction accounting outside of the gfs2 superblock structure. With this patch, at the end of a transaction, gfs2 will add the gfs2_trans structure to the superblock if there is not one already. This structure now has the active items fields that were previously in gfs2_ail. This is not necessary in the case where the transaction was simply used to add revokes, since these are never written outside of the journal, and thus, don't need an active items list. Also, in order to make sure that the transaction structure is not removed while it's still in use by gfs2_trans_end, unlocking the sd_log_flush_lock has to happen slightly later in ending the transaction.

2013-01-29GFS2: Merge gfs2_attach_bufdata() into trans.cSteven Whitehouse
The locking in gfs2_attach_bufdata() was type specific (data/meta) which made the function rather confusing. This patch moves the core of gfs2_attach_bufdata() into trans.c renaming it gfs2_alloc_bufdata() and moving the locking into gfs2_trans_add_data()/gfs2_trans_add_meta() As a result all of the locking related to adding data and metadata to the journal is now in these two functions. This should help to clarify what is going on, and give us some opportunities to simplify in some cases. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2012-06-28GFS2: Fixing double brelse'ing bh allocated in gfs2_meta_read when EIO occursMasatake YAMATO
This patch fixes buffer_head double free in following code path: gfs2_block_map => gfs2_meta_inode_buffer => gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer => gfs2_meta_read => release_metapath gfs2_block_map calls gfs2_meta_inode_buffer with &mp.mp_bh[0] as an argument. mp.mp_bh are filled with zero at the beginning of gfs2_block_map. If gfs2_meta_inode_buffer returns non-zero value, gfs2_block_map calls release_metapath to free buffers chained to mp.mp_bh. release_metapath checks each slot of mp.mp_bh[i] and free(with brelse) unless the slot is filled with NULL. &mp.mp_bh[0] passed to gfs2_meta_inode_buffer is filled at gfs2_meta_read. gfs2_meta_read is filled a buffer allocated with gfs2_getbuf even if EIO occurs. When EIO occurs, the allocated buffer is brelse'ed though the pointer(wrong poiner) points the brelse'ed is passed back to caller via an argument bhp. gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer, the caller also pass the wrong pointer to its caller with EIO. Finally gfs2_block_map gets both EIO and &mp.mp_bh[0] filled with the wrong pointer. release_metapath calls brelse again on the wrong pointer.

2012-04-24GFS2: Remove bd_list_trSteven Whitehouse
This is another clean up in the logging code. This per-transaction list was largely unused. Its main function was to ensure that the number of buffers in a transaction was correct, however that counter was only used to check the number of buffers in the bd_list_tr, plus an assert at the end of each transaction. With the assert now changed to use the calculated buffer counts, we can remove both bd_list_tr and its associated counter. This should make the code easier to understand as well as shrinking a couple of structures. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2011-11-08GFS2: Fix up REQ flagsSteven Whitehouse
Christoph has split up REQ_PRIO from REQ_META. That means that we can drop REQ_PRIO from places where is it not needed. I'm not at all sure that the combination WRITE_FLUSH_FUA | REQ_PRIO makes any kind of sense, anyway. In addition, I've added REQ_META to one place in the code where it was missing. REQ_PRIO has been left for read/writes triggered by glock acquisition and writeback only. We can adjust it again if required, but these are the most important points from a performance perspective.
