include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Btrfs: turbo charge fsync At least for the vm workload. Currently on fsync we will 1) Truncate all items in the log tree for the given inode if they exist and 2) Copy all items for a given inode into the log The problem with this is that for things like VMs you can have lots of extents from the fragmented writing behavior, and worst yet you may have only modified a few extents, not the entire thing. This patch fixes this problem by tracking which transid modified our extent, and then when we do the tree logging we find all of the extents we've modified in our current transaction, sort them and commit them. We also only truncate up to the xattrs of the inode and copy that stuff in normally, and then just drop any extents in the range we have that exist in the log already. Here are some numbers of a 50 meg fio job that does random writes and fsync()s after every write Original Patched SATA drive 82KB/s 140KB/s Fusion drive 431KB/s 2532KB/s So around 2-6 times faster depending on your hardware. There are a few corner cases, for example if you truncate at all we have to do it the old way since there is no way to be sure what is in the log is ok. This probably could be done smarter, but if you write-fsync-truncate-write-fsync you deserve what you get. All this work is in RAM of course so if your inode gets evicted from cache and you read it in and fsync it we'll do it the slow way if we are still in the same transaction that we last modified the inode in. The biggest cool part of this is that it requires no changes to the recovery code, so if you fsync with this patch and crash and load an old kernel, it will run the recovery and be a-ok. I have tested this pretty thoroughly with an fsync tester and everything comes back fine, as well as xfstests. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com>

Btrfs: tree logging unlink/rename fixes The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged without including operations on other files and directories in the FS. It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC. The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules to the tree logging. 1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink, but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory. Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when renaming to a different directory. mkdir foo/some_dir normal commit rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir mkdir foo/some_dir fsync foo/some_dir/some_file The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit 2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during the same transaction. 2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename when the directory they are being removed from was logged. 2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one 3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count of zero and redo the rm -rf mkdir f1/foo normal commit rm -rf f1/foo fsync(f1) The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the ugly details.

Btrfs: Mixed back reference (FORWARD ROLLING FORMAT CHANGE) This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata. Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS. When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time, the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure, and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0. The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out, and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records. When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by one. This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd. But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block. This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref item. We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees. This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow. The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root, and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference on a given block. This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached inodes whose inode numbers within a given range. This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref. The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large number of snapshots. This is a very large commit and was written in a number of pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

Btrfs: change how we mount subvolumes This work is in preperation for being able to set a different root as the default mounting root. There is currently a problem with how we mount subvolumes. We cannot currently mount a subvolume of a subvolume, you can only mount subvolumes/snapshots of the default subvolume. So say you take a snapshot of the default subvolume and call it snap1, and then take a snapshot of snap1 and call it snap2, so now you have / /snap1 /snap1/snap2 as your available volumes. Currently you can only mount / and /snap1, you cannot mount /snap1/snap2. To fix this problem instead of passing subvolid=<name> you must pass in subvolid=<treeid>, where <treeid> is the tree id that gets spit out via the subvolume listing you get from the subvolume listing patches (btrfs filesystem list). This allows us to mount /, /snap1 and /snap1/snap2 as the root volume. In addition to the above, we also now read the default dir item in the tree root to get the root key that it points to. For now this just points at what has always been the default subvolme, but later on I plan to change it to point at whatever root you want to be the new default root, so you can just set the default mount and not have to mount with -o subvolid=<treeid>. I tested this out with the above scenario and it worked perfectly. Thanks, mount -o subvol operates inside the selected subvolid. For example: mount -o subvol=snap1,subvolid=256 /dev/xxx /mnt /mnt will have the snap1 directory for the subvolume with id 256. mount -o subvol=snap /dev/xxx /mnt /mnt will be the snap directory of whatever the default subvolume is.

Btrfs: Add zlib compression support This is a large change for adding compression on reading and writing, both for inline and regular extents. It does some fairly large surgery to the writeback paths. Compression is off by default and enabled by mount -o compress. Even when the -o compress mount option is not used, it is possible to read compressed extents off the disk. If compression for a given set of pages fails to make them smaller, the file is flagged to avoid future compression attempts later. * While finding delalloc extents, the pages are locked before being sent down to the delalloc handler. This allows the delalloc handler to do complex things such as cleaning the pages, marking them writeback and starting IO on their behalf. * Inline extents are inserted at delalloc time now. This allows us to compress the data before inserting the inline extent, and it allows us to insert an inline extent that spans multiple pages. * All of the in-memory extent representations (extent_map.c, ordered-data.c etc) are changed to record both an in-memory size and an on disk size, as well as a flag for compression. From a disk format point of view, the extent pointers in the file are changed to record the on disk size of a given extent and some encoding flags. Space in the disk format is allocated for compression encoding, as well as encryption and a generic 'other' field. Neither the encryption or the 'other' field are currently used. In order to limit the amount of data read for a single random read in the file, the size of a compressed extent is limited to 128k. This is a software only limit, the disk format supports u64 sized compressed extents. In order to limit the ram consumed while processing extents, the uncompressed size of a compressed extent is limited to 256k. This is a software only limit and will be subject to tuning later. Checksumming is still done on compressed extents, and it is done on the uncompressed version of the data. This way additional encodings can be layered on without having to figure out which encoding to checksum. Compression happens at delalloc time, which is basically singled threaded because it is usually done by a single pdflush thread. This makes it tricky to spread the compression load across all the cpus on the box. We'll have to look at parallel pdflush walks of dirty inodes at a later time. Decompression is hooked into readpages and it does spread across CPUs nicely. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block. This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref item. We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees. This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow. The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root, and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference on a given block. This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached inodes whose inode numbers within a given range. This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref. The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large number of snapshots. This is a very large commit and was written in a number of pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

Btrfs: Mixed back reference (FORWARD ROLLING FORMAT CHANGE) This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata. Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS. When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time, the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure, and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0. The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out, and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records. When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by one.

Btrfs: tree logging unlink/rename fixes The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged without including operations on other files and directories in the FS. It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC. The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules to the tree logging. 1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink, but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory. Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when renaming to a different directory. mkdir foo/some_dir normal commit rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir mkdir foo/some_dir fsync foo/some_dir/some_file The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit 2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during the same transaction. 2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename when the directory they are being removed from was logged. 2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one 3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count of zero and redo the rm -rf mkdir f1/foo normal commit rm -rf f1/foo fsync(f1) The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the ugly details.

Btrfs: Change btree locking to use explicit blocking points Most of the btrfs metadata operations can be protected by a spinlock, but some operations still need to schedule. So far, btrfs has been using a mutex along with a trylock loop, most of the time it is able to avoid going for the full mutex, so the trylock loop is a big performance gain. This commit is step one for getting rid of the blocking locks entirely. btrfs_tree_lock takes a spinlock, and the code explicitly switches to a blocking lock when it starts an operation that can schedule. We'll be able get rid of the blocking locks in smaller pieces over time. Tracing allows us to find the most common cause of blocking, so we can start with the hot spots first. The basic idea is: btrfs_tree_lock() returns with the spin lock held btrfs_set_lock_blocking() sets the EXTENT_BUFFER_BLOCKING bit in the extent buffer flags, and then drops the spin lock. The buffer is still considered locked by all of the btrfs code. If btrfs_tree_lock gets the spinlock but finds the blocking bit set, it drops the spin lock and waits on a wait queue for the blocking bit to go away. Much of the code that needs to set the blocking bit finishes without actually blocking a good percentage of the time. So, an adaptive spin is still used against the blocking bit to avoid very high context switch rates. btrfs_clear_lock_blocking() clears the blocking bit and returns with the spinlock held again. btrfs_tree_unlock() can be called on either blocking or spinning locks, it does the right thing based on the blocking bit. ctree.c has a helper function to set/clear all the locked buffers in a path as blocking.

We'll be able get rid of the blocking locks in smaller pieces over time. Tracing allows us to find the most common cause of blocking, so we can start with the hot spots first. The basic idea is: btrfs_tree_lock() returns with the spin lock held btrfs_set_lock_blocking() sets the EXTENT_BUFFER_BLOCKING bit in the extent buffer flags, and then drops the spin lock. The buffer is still considered locked by all of the btrfs code. If btrfs_tree_lock gets the spinlock but finds the blocking bit set, it drops the spin lock and waits on a wait queue for the blocking bit to go away. Much of the code that needs to set the blocking bit finishes without actually blocking a good percentage of the time. So, an adaptive spin is still used against the blocking bit to avoid very high context switch rates. btrfs_clear_lock_blocking() clears the blocking bit and returns with the spinlock held again. btrfs_tree_unlock() can be called on either blocking or spinning locks, it does the right thing based on the blocking bit. ctree.c has a helper function to set/clear all the locked buffers in a path as blocking.

Btrfs: tree logging unlink/rename fixes The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged without including operations on other files and directories in the FS. It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC. The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules to the tree logging. 1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink, but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory. Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when renaming to a different directory. mkdir foo/some_dir normal commit rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir mkdir foo/some_dir fsync foo/some_dir/some_file The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit 2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during the same transaction. 2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename when the directory they are being removed from was logged. 2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one 3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count of zero and redo the rm -rf mkdir f1/foo normal commit rm -rf f1/foo fsync(f1) The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the ugly details.

Btrfs: Mixed back reference (FORWARD ROLLING FORMAT CHANGE) This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata. Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS. When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time, the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure, and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0. The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out, and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records. When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by one. This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd. But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block. This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref item. We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees. This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow. The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root, and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference on a given block. This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached inodes whose inode numbers within a given range. This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref. The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large number of snapshots. This is a very large commit and was written in a number of pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

This patch adds a few new rules to the tree logging. 1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink, but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory. Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when renaming to a different directory. mkdir foo/some_dir normal commit rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir mkdir foo/some_dir fsync foo/some_dir/some_file The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit 2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during the same transaction. 2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename when the directory they are being removed from was logged. 2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one 3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count of zero and redo the rm -rf mkdir f1/foo normal commit rm -rf f1/foo fsync(f1) The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the ugly details.

Btrfs: move data checksumming into a dedicated tree Btrfs stores checksums for each data block. Until now, they have been stored in the subvolume trees, indexed by the inode that is referencing the data block. This means that when we read the inode, we've probably read in at least some checksums as well. But, this has a few problems: * The checksums are indexed by logical offset in the file. When compression is on, this means we have to do the expensive checksumming on the uncompressed data. It would be faster if we could checksum the compressed data instead. * If we implement encryption, we'll be checksumming the plain text and storing that on disk. This is significantly less secure. * For either compression or encryption, we have to get the plain text back before we can verify the checksum as correct. This makes the raid layer balancing and extent moving much more expensive. * It makes the front end caching code more complex, as we have touch the subvolume and inodes as we cache extents. * There is potentitally one copy of the checksum in each subvolume referencing an extent. The solution used here is to store the extent checksums in a dedicated tree. This allows us to index the checksums by phyiscal extent start and length. It means: * The checksum is against the data stored on disk, after any compression or encryption is done. * The checksum is stored in a central location, and can be verified without following back references, or reading inodes. This makes compression significantly faster by reducing the amount of data that needs to be checksummed. It will also allow much faster raid management code in general. The checksums are indexed by a key with a fixed objectid (a magic value in ctree.h) and offset set to the starting byte of the extent. This allows us to copy the checksum items into the fsync log tree directly (or any other tree), without having to invent a second format for them. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Btrfs: Mixed back reference (FORWARD ROLLING FORMAT CHANGE) This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata. Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS. When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time, the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure, and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0. The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out, and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records. When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by one. This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd. But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block. This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref item. We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees. This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow. The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root, and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference on a given block. This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached inodes whose inode numbers within a given range. This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref. The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large number of snapshots. This is a very large commit and was written in a number of pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

Btrfs: do not flush csum items of unchanged file data during treelog The current code relogs the entire inode every time during fsync log, and it is much better suited to small files rather than large ones. During my performance test, the fsync performace of large files sucks, and we can ascribe this to the tremendous amount of csum infos of the large ones, cause we have to flush all of these csum infos into log trees even when there are only _one_ change in the whole file data. Apparently, to optimize fsync, we need to create a filter to skip the unnecessary csum ones, that is, the corresponding file data remains unchanged before this fsync. Here I have some test results to show, I use sysbench to do "random write + fsync". === sysbench --test=fileio --num-threads=1 --file-num=2 --file-block-size=4K --file-total-size=8G --file-test-mode=rndwr --file-io-mode=sync --file-extra-flags= [prepare, run] === Sysbench args: - Number of threads: 1 - Extra file open flags: 0 - 2 files, 4Gb each - Block size 4Kb - Number of random requests for random IO: 10000 - Read/Write ratio for combined random IO test: 1.50 - Periodic FSYNC enabled, calling fsync() each 100 requests. - Calling fsync() at the end of test, Enabled. - Using synchronous I/O mode - Doing random write test Sysbench results: === Operations performed: 0 Read, 10000 Write, 200 Other = 10200 Total Read 0b Written 39.062Mb Total transferred 39.062Mb === a) without patch: (*SPEED* : 451.01Kb/sec) 112.75 Requests/sec executed b) with patch: (*SPEED* : 4.7533Mb/sec) 1216.84 Requests/sec executed PS: I've made a _sub transid_ stuff patch, but it does not perform as effectively as this patch, and I'm wanderring where the problem is and trying to improve it more.

This allows us to copy the checksum items into the fsync log tree directly (or any other tree), without having to invent a second format for them. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Btrfs: move data checksumming into a dedicated tree Btrfs stores checksums for each data block. Until now, they have been stored in the subvolume trees, indexed by the inode that is referencing the data block. This means that when we read the inode, we've probably read in at least some checksums as well. But, this has a few problems: * The checksums are indexed by logical offset in the file. When compression is on, this means we have to do the expensive checksumming on the uncompressed data. It would be faster if we could checksum the compressed data instead. * If we implement encryption, we'll be checksumming the plain text and storing that on disk. This is significantly less secure. * For either compression or encryption, we have to get the plain text back before we can verify the checksum as correct. This makes the raid layer balancing and extent moving much more expensive. * It makes the front end caching code more complex, as we have touch the subvolume and inodes as we cache extents. * There is potentitally one copy of the checksum in each subvolume referencing an extent. The solution used here is to store the extent checksums in a dedicated tree. This allows us to index the checksums by phyiscal extent start and length. It means: * The checksum is against the data stored on disk, after any compression or encryption is done. * The checksum is stored in a central location, and can be verified without following back references, or reading inodes. This makes compression significantly faster by reducing the amount of data that needs to be checksummed. It will also allow much faster raid management code in general. The checksums are indexed by a key with a fixed objectid (a magic value in ctree.h) and offset set to the starting byte of the extent. This allows us to copy the checksum items into the fsync log tree directly (or any other tree), without having to invent a second format for them. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Btrfs: turbo charge fsync At least for the vm workload. Currently on fsync we will 1) Truncate all items in the log tree for the given inode if they exist and 2) Copy all items for a given inode into the log The problem with this is that for things like VMs you can have lots of extents from the fragmented writing behavior, and worst yet you may have only modified a few extents, not the entire thing. This patch fixes this problem by tracking which transid modified our extent, and then when we do the tree logging we find all of the extents we've modified in our current transaction, sort them and commit them. We also only truncate up to the xattrs of the inode and copy that stuff in normally, and then just drop any extents in the range we have that exist in the log already. Here are some numbers of a 50 meg fio job that does random writes and fsync()s after every write Original Patched SATA drive 82KB/s 140KB/s Fusion drive 431KB/s 2532KB/s So around 2-6 times faster depending on your hardware. There are a few corner cases, for example if you truncate at all we have to do it the old way since there is no way to be sure what is in the log is ok. This probably could be done smarter, but if you write-fsync-truncate-write-fsync you deserve what you get. All this work is in RAM of course so if your inode gets evicted from cache and you read it in and fsync it we'll do it the slow way if we are still in the same transaction that we last modified the inode in. The biggest cool part of this is that it requires no changes to the recovery code, so if you fsync with this patch and crash and load an old kernel, it will run the recovery and be a-ok. I have tested this pretty thoroughly with an fsync tester and everything comes back fine, as well as xfstests. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com>

Currently on fsync we will 1) Truncate all items in the log tree for the given inode if they exist and 2) Copy all items for a given inode into the log The problem with this is that for things like VMs you can have lots of extents from the fragmented writing behavior, and worst yet you may have only modified a few extents, not the entire thing. This patch fixes this problem by tracking which transid modified our extent, and then when we do the tree logging we find all of the extents we've modified in our current transaction, sort them and commit them. We also only truncate up to the xattrs of the inode and copy that stuff in normally, and then just drop any extents in the range we have that exist in the log already. Here are some numbers of a 50 meg fio job that does random writes and fsync()s after every write Original Patched SATA drive 82KB/s 140KB/s Fusion drive 431KB/s 2532KB/s So around 2-6 times faster depending on your hardware. There are a few corner cases, for example if you truncate at all we have to do it the old way since there is no way to be sure what is in the log is ok. This probably could be done smarter, but if you write-fsync-truncate-write-fsync you deserve what you get. All this work is in RAM of course so if your inode gets evicted from cache and you read it in and fsync it we'll do it the slow way if we are still in the same transaction that we last modified the inode in. The biggest cool part of this is that it requires no changes to the recovery code, so if you fsync with this patch and crash and load an old kernel, it will run the recovery and be a-ok. I have tested this pretty thoroughly with an fsync tester and everything comes back fine, as well as xfstests. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com>

Btrfs: tree logging unlink/rename fixes The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged without including operations on other files and directories in the FS. It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC. The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules to the tree logging. 1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink, but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory. Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when renaming to a different directory. mkdir foo/some_dir normal commit rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir mkdir foo/some_dir fsync foo/some_dir/some_file The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit 2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during the same transaction. 2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename when the directory they are being removed from was logged. 2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one 3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count of zero and redo the rm -rf mkdir f1/foo normal commit rm -rf f1/foo fsync(f1) The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the ugly details.

btrfs: implement delayed inode items operation Changelog V5 -> V6: - Fix oom when the memory load is high, by storing the delayed nodes into the root's radix tree, and letting btrfs inodes go. Changelog V4 -> V5: - Fix the race on adding the delayed node to the inode, which is spotted by Chris Mason. - Merge Chris Mason's incremental patch into this patch. - Fix deadlock between readdir() and memory fault, which is reported by Itaru Kitayama. Changelog V3 -> V4: - Fix nested lock, which is reported by Itaru Kitayama, by updating space cache inode in time. Changelog V2 -> V3: - Fix the race between the delayed worker and the task which does delayed items balance, which is reported by Tsutomu Itoh. - Modify the patch address David Sterba's comment. - Fix the bug of the cpu recursion spinlock, reported by Chris Mason Changelog V1 -> V2: - break up the global rb-tree, use a list to manage the delayed nodes, which is created for every directory and file, and used to manage the delayed directory name index items and the delayed inode item. - introduce a worker to deal with the delayed nodes. Compare with Ext3/4, the performance of file creation and deletion on btrfs is very poor. the reason is that btrfs must do a lot of b+ tree insertions, such as inode item, directory name item, directory name index and so on. If we can do some delayed b+ tree insertion or deletion, we can improve the performance, so we made this patch which implemented delayed directory name index insertion/deletion and delayed inode update. Implementation: - introduce a delayed root object into the filesystem, that use two lists to manage the delayed nodes which are created for every file/directory. One is used to manage all the delayed nodes that have delayed items. And the other is used to manage the delayed nodes which is waiting to be dealt with by the work thread. - Every delayed node has two rb-tree, one is used to manage the directory name index which is going to be inserted into b+ tree, and the other is used to manage the directory name index which is going to be deleted from b+ tree. - introduce a worker to deal with the delayed operation. This worker is used to deal with the works of the delayed directory name index items insertion and deletion and the delayed inode update. When the delayed items is beyond the lower limit, we create works for some delayed nodes and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then go back. When the delayed items is beyond the upper bound, we create works for all the delayed nodes that haven't been dealt with, and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then wait for that the untreated items is below some threshold value. - When we want to insert a directory name index into b+ tree, we just add the information into the delayed inserting rb-tree. And then we check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items balance. (The balance policy is above.) - When we want to delete a directory name index from the b+ tree, we search it in the inserting rb-tree at first. If we look it up, just drop it. If not, add the key of it into the delayed deleting rb-tree. Similar to the delayed inserting rb-tree, we also check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items balance. (The same to inserting manipulation) - When we want to update the metadata of some inode, we cached the data of the inode into the delayed node. the worker will flush it into the b+ tree after dealing with the delayed insertion and deletion. - We will move the delayed node to the tail of the list after we access the delayed node, By this way, we can cache more delayed items and merge more inode updates. - If we want to commit transaction, we will deal with all the delayed node. - the delayed node will be freed when we free the btrfs inode. - Before we log the inode items, we commit all the directory name index items and the delayed inode update. I did a quick test by the benchmark tool[1] and found we can improve the performance of file creation by ~15%, and file deletion by ~20%.

There are a few corner cases, for example if you truncate at all we have to do it the old way since there is no way to be sure what is in the log is ok. This probably could be done smarter, but if you write-fsync-truncate-write-fsync you deserve what you get. All this work is in RAM of course so if your inode gets evicted from cache and you read it in and fsync it we'll do it the slow way if we are still in the same transaction that we last modified the inode in. The biggest cool part of this is that it requires no changes to the recovery code, so if you fsync with this patch and crash and load an old kernel, it will run the recovery and be a-ok. I have tested this pretty thoroughly with an fsync tester and everything comes back fine, as well as xfstests. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com>

Btrfs: turbo charge fsync At least for the vm workload. Currently on fsync we will 1) Truncate all items in the log tree for the given inode if they exist and 2) Copy all items for a given inode into the log The problem with this is that for things like VMs you can have lots of extents from the fragmented writing behavior, and worst yet you may have only modified a few extents, not the entire thing. This patch fixes this problem by tracking which transid modified our extent, and then when we do the tree logging we find all of the extents we've modified in our current transaction, sort them and commit them. We also only truncate up to the xattrs of the inode and copy that stuff in normally, and then just drop any extents in the range we have that exist in the log already.

Btrfs: tree logging unlink/rename fixes The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged without including operations on other files and directories in the FS. It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC. The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules to the tree logging. 1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink, but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory. Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when renaming to a different directory. mkdir foo/some_dir normal commit rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir mkdir foo/some_dir fsync foo/some_dir/some_file The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit 2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during the same transaction. 2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename when the directory they are being removed from was logged. 2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one 3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count of zero and redo the rm -rf mkdir f1/foo normal commit rm -rf f1/foo fsync(f1) The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the ugly details.

Btrfs: tree logging unlink/rename fixes The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged without including operations on other files and directories in the FS. It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC. The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules to the tree logging. 1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink, but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory. Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when renaming to a different directory. mkdir foo/some_dir normal commit rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir mkdir foo/some_dir fsync foo/some_dir/some_file The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording it in its new location (foo2).

Btrfs: Mixed back reference (FORWARD ROLLING FORMAT CHANGE) This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata. Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS. When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time, the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure, and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0. The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out, and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records. When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by one. This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd. But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block. This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref item. We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees. This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow. The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root, and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference on a given block. This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached inodes whose inode numbers within a given range. This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref. The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large number of snapshots. This is a very large commit and was written in a number of pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.
