It's possible to reach a state where the cleaner kthread isn't able to
start a transaction to delete an unused block group due to lack of enough
free metadata space and due to lack of unallocated device space to allocate
a new metadata block group as well. If this happens try to use space from
the global block group reserve just like we do for unlink operations, so
that we don't reach a permanent state where starting a transaction for
filesystem operations (file creation, renames, etc) keeps failing with
-ENOSPC. Such an unfortunate state was observed on a machine where over
a dozen unused data block groups existed and the cleaner kthread was
failing to delete them due to ENOSPC error when attempting to start a
transaction, and even running balance with a -dusage=0 filter failed with
ENOSPC as well. Also unmounting and mounting again the filesystem didn't
help. Allowing the cleaner kthread to use the global block reserve to
delete the unused data block groups fixed the problem.

If we hit ENOSPC when setting up a space cache don't bother setting up any of
the other space cache's in this transaction, it'll just induce unnecessary

We have a mechanism to make sure we don't lose updates for ordered extents that
were logged in the transaction that is currently running. We add the ordered
extent to a transaction list and then the transaction waits on all the ordered
extents in that list. However are substantially large file systems this list
can be extremely large, and can give us soft lockups, since the ordered extents
don't remove themselves from the list when they do complete.
To fix this we simply add a counter to the transaction that is incremented any
time we have a logged extent that needs to be completed in the current
transaction. Then when the ordered extent finally completes it decrements the
per transaction counter and wakes up the transaction if we are the last ones.
This will eliminate the softlockup. Thanks,

The value of num_items that start_transaction() ultimately
always takes is a small one, so a 64 bit integer is overkill.
Also change num_items for btrfs_start_transaction() and
btrfs_start_transaction_lflush() as well.

This happened because the same transaction handle created a large number
of block groups and while finalizing their creation (inserting new items
and updating existing items in the chunk and device trees) a new metadata
extent had to be allocated and no free space was found in the current
metadata block groups, which made find_free_extent() attempt to allocate
a new block group via do_chunk_alloc(). However at do_chunk_alloc() we
ended up allocating a new system chunk too and exceeded the threshold
of 2Mb of reserved chunk bytes, which makes do_chunk_alloc() enter the
final part of block group creation again (at
btrfs_create_pending_block_groups()) and attempt to lock again the root
of the chunk tree when it's already write locked by the same task.
Similarly we can deadlock on extent tree nodes/leafs if while we are
running delayed references we end up creating a new metadata block group
in order to allocate a new node/leaf for the extent tree (as part of
a CoW operation or growing the tree), as btrfs_create_pending_block_groups
inserts items into the extent tree as well. In this case we get the
following trace:

When dropping a snapshot we need to account for the qgroup changes. If we drop
the snapshot in all one go then the backref code will fail to find blocks from
the snapshot we dropped since it won't be able to find the root in the fs root
cache. This can lead to us failing to find refs from other roots that pointed
at blocks in the now deleted root. To handle this we need to not remove the fs
roots from the cache until after we process the qgroup operations. Do this by
adding dropped roots to a list on the transaction, and letting the transaction
remove the roots at the same time it drops the commit roots. This will keep all
of the backref searching code in sync properly, and fixes a problem Mark was
seeing with snapshot delete and qgroups. Thanks,

When we clear the dirty bits in btrfs_delete_unused_bgs for extents
in the empty block group, it results in btrfs_finish_extent_commit being
unable to discard the freed extents.
The block group removal patch added an alternate path to forget extents
other than btrfs_finish_extent_commit. As a result, any extents that
would be freed when the block group is removed aren't discarded. In my
test run, with a large copy of mixed sized files followed by removal, it
left nearly 2/3 of extents undiscarded.
To clean up the block groups, we add the removed block group onto a list
that will be discarded after transaction commit.

This is used by later qgroup fix patches for snapshot.
As current snapshot accounting is done by btrfs_qgroup_inherit(), but
new extent oriented quota mechanism will account extent from
btrfs_copy_root() and other snapshot things, causing wrong result.
So add this ability to handle snapshot accounting.

This is because we don't do proper space reservation for the chunk block
reserve when we have multiple tasks allocating chunks in parallel.
So block group creation has 2 phases, and the first phase essentially
checks if there is enough space in the system space_info, allocating a
new system chunk if there isn't, while the second phase updates the
device, extent and chunk trees. However, because the updates to the
chunk tree happen in the second phase, if we have N tasks, each with
its own transaction handle, allocating new chunks in parallel and if
there is only enough space in the system space_info to allocate M chunks,
where M < N, none of the tasks ends up allocating a new system chunk in
the first phase and N - M tasks will get -ENOSPC when attempting to
update the chunk tree in phase 2 if they need to COW any nodes/leafs
from the chunk tree.
Fix this by doing proper reservation in the chunk block reserve.
The issue could be reproduced by running fstests generic/038 in a loop,
which eventually triggered the problem.

We loop through all of the dirty block groups during commit and write
the free space cache. In order to make sure the cache is currect, we do
this while no other writers are allowed in the commit.
If a large number of block groups are dirty, this can introduce long
stalls during the final stages of the commit, which can block new procs
trying to change the filesystem.
This commit changes the block group cache writeout to take appropriate
locks and allow it to run earlier in the commit. We'll still have to
redo some of the block groups, but it means we can get most of the work
out of the way without blocking the entire FS.

We can get into inconsistency between inodes and directory entries
after fsyncing a directory. The issue is that while a directory gets
the new dentries persisted in the fsync log and replayed at mount time,
the link count of the inode that directory entries point to doesn't
get updated, staying with an incorrect link count (smaller then the
correct value). This later leads to stale file handle errors when
accessing (including attempt to delete) some of the links if all the
other ones are removed, which also implies impossibility to delete the
parent directories, since the dentries can not be removed.
Another issue is that (unlike ext3/4, xfs, f2fs, reiserfs, nilfs2),
when fsyncing a directory, new files aren't logged (their metadata and
dentries) nor any child directories. So this patch fixes this issue too,
since it has the same resolution as the incorrect inode link count issue
mentioned before.
This is very easy to reproduce, and the following excerpt from my test

Btrfs will report NO_SPACE when we create and remove files for several times,
and we can't write to filesystem until mount it again.
Steps to reproduce:
1: Create a single-dev btrfs fs with default option
2: Write a file into it to take up most fs space
3: Delete above file
4: Wait about 100s to let chunk removed
5: goto 2
Script is like following:

# Recommend 1.2G space, too large disk will make test slow
DEV="/dev/sda16"
MNT="/mnt/tmp"
dev_size="$(lsblk -bn -o SIZE "$DEV")" || exit 2

Reason:
It is triggered by commit: 47ab2a6c68
which is used to remove empty block groups automatically, but the
reason is not in that patch. Code before works well because btrfs
don't need to create and delete chunks so many times with high
complexity.
Above bug is caused by many reason, any of them can trigger it.
Reason1:
When we remove some continuous chunks but leave other chunks after,
these disk space should be used by chunk-recreating, but in current
code, only first create will successed.

Currently any time we try to update the block groups on disk we will walk _all_
block groups and check for the ->dirty flag to see if it is set. This function
can get called several times during a commit. So if you have several terabytes
of data you will be a very sad panda as we will loop through _all_ of the block
groups several times, which makes the commit take a while which slows down the
rest of the file system operations.
This patch introduces a dirty list for the block groups that we get added to
when we dirty the block group for the first time. Then we simply update any
block groups that have been dirtied since the last time we called
btrfs_write_dirty_block_groups. This allows us to clean up how we write the
free space cache out so it is much cleaner. Thanks,

Liu Bo pointed out that my previous fix would lose the generation update in the
scenario I described. It is actually much worse than that, we could lose the
entire extent if we lose power right after the transaction commits. Consider
the following
write extent 0-4k
log extent in log tree
commit transaction
< power fail happens here
ordered extent completes
We would lose the 0-4k extent because it hasn't updated the actual fs tree, and
the transaction commit will reset the log so it isn't replayed. If we lose
power before the transaction commit we are save, otherwise we are not.
Fix this by keeping track of all extents we logged in this transaction. Then
when we go to commit the transaction make sure we wait for all of those ordered
extents to complete before proceeding. This will make sure that if we lose
power after the transaction commit we still have our data. This also fixes the
problem of the improperly updated extent generation. Thanks,

When committing a transaction or a log, we look for btree extents that
need to be durably persisted by searching for ranges in a io tree that
have some bits set (EXTENT_DIRTY or EXTENT_NEW). We then attempt to clear
those bits and set the EXTENT_NEED_WAIT bit, with calls to the function
convert_extent_bit, and then start writeback for the extents.
That function however can return an error (at the moment only -ENOMEM
is possible, specially when it does GFP_ATOMIC allocation requests
through alloc_extent_state_atomic) - that means the ranges didn't got
the EXTENT_NEED_WAIT bit set (or at least not for the whole range),
which in turn means a call to btrfs_wait_marked_extents() won't find
those ranges for which we started writeback, causing a transaction
commit or a log commit to persist a new superblock without waiting
for the writeback of extents in that range to finish first.
Therefore if a crash happens after persisting the new superblock and
before writeback finishes, we have a superblock pointing to roots that
weren't fully persisted or roots that point to nodes or leafs that weren't
fully persisted, causing all sorts of unexpected/bad behaviour as we endup
reading garbage from disk or the content of some node/leaf from a past
generation that got cowed or deleted and is no longer valid (for this later
case we end up getting error messages like "parent transid verify failed on
X wanted Y found Z" when reading btree nodes/leafs from disk).

Truncates and renames are often used to replace old versions of a file
with new versions. Applications often expect this to be an atomic
replacement, even if they haven't done anything to make sure the new
version is fully on disk.
Btrfs has strict flushing in place to make sure that renaming over an
old file with a new file will fully flush out the new file before
allowing the transaction commit with the rename to complete.
This ordering means the commit code needs to be able to lock file pages,
and there are a few paths in the filesystem where we will try to end a
transaction with the page lock held. It's rare, but these things can
deadlock.
This patch removes the ordered flushes and switches to a best effort
filemap_flush like ext4 uses. It's not perfect, but it should fix the
deadlocks.

Lets try this again. We can deadlock the box if we send on a box and try to
write onto the same fs with the app that is trying to listen to the send pipe.
This is because the writer could get stuck waiting for a transaction commit
which is being blocked by the send. So fix this by making sure looking at the
commit roots is always going to be consistent. We do this by keeping track of
which roots need to have their commit roots swapped during commit, and then
taking the commit_root_sem and swapping them all at once. Then make sure we
take a read lock on the commit_root_sem in cases where we search the commit root
to make sure we're always looking at a consistent view of the commit roots.
Previously we had problems with this because we would swap a fs tree commit root
and then swap the extent tree commit root independently which would cause the
backref walking code to screw up sometimes. With this patch we no longer
deadlock and pass all the weird send/receive corner cases. Thanks,

So I have an awful exercise script that will run snapshot, balance and
send/receive in parallel. This sometimes would crash spectacularly and when it
came back up the fs would be completely hosed. Turns out this is because of a
bad interaction of balance and send/receive. Send will hold onto its entire
path for the whole send, but its blocks could get relocated out from underneath
it, and because it doesn't old tree locks theres nothing to keep this from
happening. So it will go to read in a slot with an old transid, and we could
have re-allocated this block for something else and it could have a completely
different transid. But because we think it is invalid we clear uptodate and
re-read in the block. If we do this before we actually write out the new block
we could write back stale data to the fs, and boom we're screwed.
Now we definitely need to fix this disconnect between send and balance, but we
really really need to not allow ourselves to accidently read in stale data over
new data. So make sure we check if the extent buffer is not under io before
clearing uptodate, this will kick back EIO to the caller instead of reading in
stale data and keep us from corrupting the fs. Thanks,

Looking into some performance related issues with large amounts of metadata
revealed that we can have some pretty huge swings in fsync() performance. If we
have a lot of delayed refs backed up (as you will tend to do with lots of
metadata) fsync() will wander off and try to run some of those delayed refs
which can result in reading from disk and such. Since the actual act of fsync()
doesn't create any delayed refs there is no need to make it throttle on delayed
ref stuff, that will be handled by other people. With this patch we get much
smoother fsync performance with large amounts of metadata. Thanks,

Two reasons:
- btrfs_end_transaction_dmeta() is the same as btrfs_end_transaction_throttle()
so it is unnecessary.
- All the delayed items should be dealt in the current transaction, so the
workers should not commit the transaction, instead, deal with the delayed
items as many as possible.
So we can remove btrfs_end_transaction_dmeta()

The reason of the problem is that the relocation root creation stole
the reserved space, which was reserved for orphan item deletion.
There are several ways to fix this problem, one is to increasing
the reserved space size of the space balace, and then we can use
that space to create the relocation tree for each fs/file trees.
But it is hard to calculate the suitable size because we doesn't
know how many fs/file trees we need relocate.
We fixed this problem by reserving the space for relocation root creation
actively since the space it need is very small (one tree block, used for
root node copy), then we use that reserved space to create the
relocation tree. If we don't reserve space for relocation tree creation,
we will use the reserved space of the balance.

I was noticing the slab redzone stuff going off every once and a while during
transaction aborts. This was caused by two things
1) We would walk the pending snapshots and set their error to -ECANCELED. We
don't need to do this, the snapshot stuff waits for a transaction commit and if
there is a problem we just free our pending snapshot object and exit. Doing
this was causing us to touch the pending snapshot object after the thing had
already been freed.
2) We were freeing the transaction manually with wanton disregard for it's
use_count reference counter. To fix this I cleaned up the transaction freeing
loop to either wait for the transaction commit to finish if it was in the middle
of that (since it will be cleaned and freed up there) or to do the cleanup
oursevles.
I also moved the global "kill all things dirty everywhere" stuff outside of the
transaction cleanup loop since that only needs to be done once. With this patch
I'm no longer seeing slab corruption because of use after frees. Thanks,

When adjusting the enospc rules for relocation I ran into a deadlock because we
were relocating the only system chunk and that forced us to try and allocate a
new system chunk while holding locks in the chunk tree, which caused us to
deadlock. To fix this I've moved all of the dev extent addition and chunk
addition out to the delayed chunk completion stuff. We still keep the in-memory
stuff which makes sure everything is consistent.
One change I had to make was to search the commit root of the device tree to
find a free dev extent, and hold onto any chunk em's that we allocated in that
transaction so we do not allocate the same dev extent twice. This has the side
effect of fixing a bug with balance that has been there ever since balance
existed. Basically you can free a block group and it's dev extent and then
immediately allocate that dev extent for a new block group and write stuff to
that dev extent, all within the same transaction. So if you happen to crash
during a balance you could come back to a completely broken file system. This
patch should keep these sort of things from happening in the future since we
won't be able to allocate free'd dev extents until after the transaction
commits. This has passed all of the xfstests and my super annoying stress test
followed by a balance. Thanks,

We used 3 variants to track the state of the transaction, it was complex
and wasted the memory space. Besides that, it was hard to understand that
which types of the transaction handles should be blocked in each transaction
state, so the developers often made mistakes.
This patch improved the above problem. In this patch, we define 6 states
for the transaction,
enum btrfs_trans_state {
TRANS_STATE_RUNNING = 0,
TRANS_STATE_BLOCKED = 1,
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START = 2,
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING = 3,
TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED = 4,
TRANS_STATE_COMPLETED = 5,
TRANS_STATE_MAX = 6,
}
and just use 1 variant to track those state.
In order to make the blocked handle types for each state more clear,
we introduce a array:
unsigned int btrfs_blocked_trans_types[TRANS_STATE_MAX] = {
[TRANS_STATE_RUNNING] = 0U,
[TRANS_STATE_BLOCKED] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START),
[TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START |
__TRANS_ATTACH),
[TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START |
__TRANS_ATTACH |
__TRANS_JOIN),
[TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START |
__TRANS_ATTACH |
__TRANS_JOIN |
__TRANS_JOIN_NOLOCK),
[TRANS_STATE_COMPLETED] = (__TRANS_USERSPACE |
__TRANS_START |
__TRANS_ATTACH |
__TRANS_JOIN |
__TRANS_JOIN_NOLOCK),
}
it is very intuitionistic.
Besides that, because we remove ->in_commit in transaction structure, so
the lock ->commit_lock which was used to protect it is unnecessary, remove
->commit_lock.

We used ->num_joined track if there were some writers which join the current
transaction when the committer was sleeping. If some writers joined the current
transaction, we has to continue the while loop to do some necessary stuff, such
as flush the ordered operations. But it is unnecessary because we will do it
after the while loop.
Besides that, tracking ->num_joined would make the committer drop into the while
loop when there are lots of internal writers(TRANS_JOIN).
So we remove ->num_joined and don't track if there are some writers which join
the current transaction when the committer is sleeping.

btrfs_commit_transaction has the following loop before we commit the
transaction.
do {
// attempt to do some useful stuff and/or sleep
} while (atomic_read(&cur_trans->num_writers) > 1 ||
(should_grow && cur_trans->num_joined != joined));
This is used to prevent from the TRANS_START to get in the way of a
committing transaction. But it does not prevent from TRANS_JOIN, that
is we would do this loop for a long time if some writers JOIN the
current transaction endlessly.
Because we need join the current transaction to do some useful stuff,
we can not block TRANS_JOIN here. So we introduce a external writer
counter, which is used to count the TRANS_USERSPACE/TRANS_START writers.
If the external writer counter is zero, we can break the above loop.
In order to make the code more clear, we don't use enum variant
to define the type of the transaction handle, use bitmask instead.

Each time pick one dead root from the list and let the caller know if
it's needed to continue. This should improve responsiveness during
umount and balance which at some point waits for cleaning all currently
queued dead roots.
A new dead root is added to the end of the list, so the snapshots
disappear in the order of deletion.

There are two problems in the space reservation of the snapshot/
subvolume creation.
- don't reserve the space for the root item insertion
- the space which is reserved in the qgroup is different with
the free space reservation. we need reserve free space for
7 items, but in qgroup reservation, we need reserve space only
for 3 items.
So we implement new metadata reservation functions for the
snapshot/subvolume creation.

Since we have grabbed the parent inode at the beginning of the
snapshot creation, and both sync and async snapshot creation
release it after the pending snapshots are actually created,
it is safe to access the parent inode directly during the snapshot
creation, we needn't use dget_parent/dput to fix the parent dentry
and get the dir inode.

In some cases, we need commit the current transaction, but don't want
to start a new one if there is no running transaction, so we introduce
the function - btrfs_attach_transaction(), which can catch the current
transaction, and return -ENOENT if there is no running transaction.
But no running transaction doesn't mean the current transction completely,
because we removed the running transaction before it completes. In some
cases, it doesn't matter. But in some special cases, such as freeze fs, we
hope the transaction is fully on disk, it will introduce some bugs, for
example, we may feeze the fs and dump the data in the disk, if the transction
doesn't complete, we would dump inconsistent data. So we need fix the above
problem for those cases.
We fixes this problem by introducing a function:
btrfs_attach_transaction_barrier()
if we hope all the transaction is fully on the disk, even they are not
running, we can use this function.

Miao made the ordered operations stuff run async, which introduced a
deadlock where we could get somebody (sync) racing in and committing the
transaction while a commit was already happening. The new committer would
try and flush ordered operations which would hang waiting for the commit to
finish because it is done asynchronously and no longer inherits the callers
trans handle. To fix this we need to make the ordered operations list a per
transaction list. We can get new inodes added to the ordered operation list
by truncating them and then having another process writing to them, so this
makes it so that anybody trying to add an ordered operation _must_ start a
transaction in order to add itself to the list, which will keep new inodes
from getting added to the ordered operations list after we start committing.
This should fix the deadlock and also keeps us from doing a lot more work
than we need to during commit. Thanks,

If we start running low on metadata space we will try to allocate a chunk,

In some places(such as: evicting inode), we just can not flush the reserved
space of delalloc, flushing the delayed directory index and delayed inode
is OK, but we don't try to flush those things and just go back when there is
no enough space to be reserved. This patch fixes this problem.
We defined 3 types of the flush operations: NO_FLUSH, FLUSH_LIMIT and FLUSH_ALL.
If we can in the transaction, we should not flush anything, or the deadlock
would happen, so use NO_FLUSH. If we flushing the reserved space of delalloc
would cause deadlock, use FLUSH_LIMIT. In the other cases, FLUSH_ALL is used,
and we will flush all things.

I found there was a orphan transaction after the freeze operation was done.
It is because the transaction may not be committed when the transaction handle
end even though it is the last handle of the current transaction. This design
avoid committing the transaction frequently, but also introduce the above

So I add btrfs_attach_transaction() which can catch the current transaction

anything.
This function also can be used to instead of btrfs_join_transaction_freeze()
because it don't increase the writer counter and don't start a new transaction,
so it also can fix the deadlock between sync and freeze.
Besides that, it is used to instead of btrfs_join_transaction() in

So we have lots of places where we try to preallocate chunks in order to

historically meant that we're constantly tweaking when we should allocate a
new chunk, and historically we have gotten this horribly wrong so we way
over allocate either metadata or data. To try and keep this from happening
we are going to make it so that the block group item insertion is done out

When we delete a inode, we will remove all the delayed items including delayed
inode update, and then truncate all the relative metadata. If there is lots of
metadata, we will end the current transaction, and start a new transaction to
truncate the left metadata. In this way, we will leave a inode item that its
link counter is > 0, and also may leave some directory index items in fs/file tree
after the current transaction ends. In other words, the metadata in this fs/file tree
is inconsistent. If we create a snapshot for this tree now, we will find a inode with
corrupted metadata in the new snapshot, and we won't continue to drop the left metadata,
because its link counter is not 0.
We fix this problem by updating the inode item before the current transaction ends.

This is based on Josef's "Btrfs: turbo charge fsync".
The current btrfs checks if an inode is in log by comparing
root's last_log_commit to inode's last_sub_trans[2].
But the problem is that this root->last_log_commit is shared among
inodes.
Say we have N inodes to be logged, after the first inode,
root's last_log_commit is updated and the N-1 remained files will
be skipped.
This fixes the bug by keeping a local copy of root's last_log_commit
inside each inode and this local copy will be maintained itself.

There is weird logic I had to put in place to make sure that when we were
adding csums that we'd used the delalloc block rsv instead of the global
block rsv. Part of this meant that we had to free up our transaction
reservation before we ran the delayed refs since csum deletion happens
during the delayed ref work. The problem with this is that when we release
a reservation we will add it to the global reserve if it is not full in
order to keep us going along longer before we have to force a transaction
commit. By releasing our reservation before we run delayed refs we don't
get the opportunity to drain down the global reserve for the work we did, so
we won't refill it as often. This isn't a problem per-se, it just results
in us possibly committing transactions more and more often, and in rare
cases could cause those WARN_ON()'s to pop in use_block_rsv because we ran
out of space in our block rsv.
This also helps us by holding onto space while the delayed refs run so we
don't end up with as many people trying to do things at the same time, which
again will help us not force commits or hit the use_block_rsv warnings.

We use trans_mutex for lots of things, here's a basic list
1) To serialize trans_handles joining the currently running transaction
2) To make sure that no new trans handles are started while we are committing
3) To protect the dead_roots list and the transaction lists
Really the serializing trans_handles joining is not too hard, and can really get
bogged down in acquiring a reference to the transaction. So replace the
trans_mutex with a trans_lock spinlock and use it to do the following
1) Protect fs_info->running_transaction. All trans handles have to do is check
this, and then take a reference of the transaction and keep on going.
2) Protect the fs_info->trans_list. This doesn't get used too much, basically
it just holds the current transactions, which will usually just be the currently
committing transaction and the currently running transaction at most.
3) Protect the dead roots list. This is only ever processed by splicing the
list so this is relatively simple.
4) Protect the fs_info->reloc_ctl stuff. This is very lightweight and was using
the trans_mutex before, so this is a pretty straightforward change.
5) Protect fs_info->no_trans_join. Because we don't hold the trans_lock over
the entirety of the commit we need to have a way to block new people from
creating a new transaction while we're doing our work. So we set no_trans_join
and in join_transaction we test to see if that is set, and if it is we do a
wait_on_commit.
6) Make the transaction use count atomic so we don't need to take locks to
modify it when we're dropping references.
7) Add a commit_lock to the transaction to make sure multiple people trying to
commit the same transaction don't race and commit at the same time.
8) Make open_ioctl_trans an atomic so we don't have to take any locks for ioctl
trans.

- 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%.

START_SYNC will start a sync/commit, but not wait for it to
complete. Any modification started after the ioctl returns is
guaranteed not to be included in the commit. If a non-NULL
pointer is passed, the transaction id will be returned to
userspace.
WAIT_SYNC will wait for any in-progress commit to complete. If a
transaction id is specified, the ioctl will block and then
return (success) when the specified transaction has committed.
If it has already committed when we call the ioctl, it returns
immediately. If the specified transaction doesn't exist, it
returns EINVAL.
If no transaction id is specified, WAIT_SYNC will wait for the
currently committing transaction to finish it's commit to disk.
If there is no currently committing transaction, it returns
success.
These ioctls are useful for applications which want to impose an
ordering on when fs modifications reach disk, but do not want to
wait for the full (slow) commit process to do so.
Picky callers can take the transid returned by START_SYNC and
feed it to WAIT_SYNC, and be certain to wait only as long as
necessary for the transaction _they_ started to reach disk.
Sloppy callers can START_SYNC and WAIT_SYNC without a transid,
and provided they didn't wait too long between the calls, they
will get the same result. However, if a second commit starts
before they call WAIT_SYNC, they may end up waiting longer for
it to commit as well. Even so, a START_SYNC+WAIT_SYNC still
guarantees that any operation completed before the START_SYNC
reaches disk.

2) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for the

3) write and wait for the super blocks (barriers here)
This isn't as efficient as it could be because there is
no requirement to wait for the blocks from step one to hit the disk
before we start writing the blocks from step two. This commit
changes the sequence so that we don't start waiting until

In this case, we want to avoid a tree log sync, which includes

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.

To avoid deadlocks and reduce latencies during some critical operations, some
transaction writers are allowed to jump into the running transaction and make
it run a little longer, while others sit around and wait for the commit to
finish.
This is a bit unfair, especially when the callers that jump in do a bunch
of IO that makes all the others procs on the box wait. This commit
reduces the stalls this produces by pre-reading file extent pointers
during btrfs_finish_ordered_io before the transaction is joined.
It also tunes the drop_snapshot code to politely wait for transactions

new delayed refs being flooded into the queue while we're trying to

The extent allocation tree maintains a reference count and full
back reference information for every extent allocated in the
filesystem. For subvolume and snapshot trees, every time
a block goes through COW, the new copy of the block adds a reference
on every block it points to.
If a btree node points to 150 leaves, then the COW code needs to go
and add backrefs on 150 different extents, which might be spread all
over the extent allocation tree.
These updates currently happen during btrfs_cow_block, and most COWs
happen during btrfs_search_slot. btrfs_search_slot has locks held
on both the parent and the node we are COWing, and so we really want
to avoid IO during the COW if we can.
This commit adds an rbtree of pending reference count updates and extent
allocations. The tree is ordered by byte number of the extent and byte number
of the parent for the back reference. The tree allows us to:
1) Modify back references in something close to disk order, reducing seeks
2) Significantly reduce the number of modifications made as block pointers
are balanced around
3) Do all of the extent insertion and back reference modifications outside
of the performance critical btrfs_search_slot code.
#3 has the added benefit of greatly reducing the btrfs stack footprint.
The extent allocation tree modifications are done without the deep
(and somewhat recursive) call chains used in the past.
These delayed back reference updates must be done before the transaction
commits, and so the rbtree is tied to the transaction. Throttling is
implemented to help keep the queue of backrefs at a reasonable size.
Since there was a similar mechanism in place for the extent tree
extents, that is removed and replaced by the delayed reference tree.

The block group structs are referenced in many different
places, and it's not safe to free while balancing. So, those block
group structs were simply leaked instead.
This patch replaces the block group pointer in the inode with the starting byte
offset of the block group and adds reference counting to the block group
struct.

Before, all snapshots and subvolumes lived in a single flat directory. This
was awkward and confusing because the single flat directory was only writable
with the ioctls.
This commit changes the ioctls to create subvols and snapshots at any
point in the directory tree. This requires making separate ioctls for
snapshot and subvol creation instead of a combining them into one.
The subvol ioctl does:
btrfsctl -S subvol_name parent_dir
After the ioctl is done subvol_name lives inside parent_dir.
The snapshot ioctl does:
btrfsctl -s path_for_snapshot root_to_snapshot
path_for_snapshot can be an absolute or relative path. btrfsctl breaks it up
into directory and basename components.
root_to_snapshot can be any file or directory in the FS. The snapshot
is taken of the entire root where that file lives.

This is the same way the transaction code makes sure that all the
other tree blocks are safely on disk. There's an extent_io tree
for each root, and any blocks allocated to the tree logs are
recorded in that tree.
At tree-log sync, the extent_io tree is walked to flush down the
dirty pages and wait for them.
The main benefit is less time spent walking the tree log and skipping
clean pages, and getting sequential IO down to the drive.

File syncs and directory syncs are optimized by copying their
items into a special (copy-on-write) log tree. There is one log tree per
subvolume and the btrfs super block points to a tree of log tree roots.
After a crash, items are copied out of the log tree and back into the
subvolume. See tree-log.c for all the details.

Commit 597:466b27332893 (btrfs_start_transaction: wait for commits in
progress) breaks the transaction start/stop ioctls by making
btrfs_start_transaction conditionally wait for the next transaction to
start. If an application artificially is holding a transaction open,
things deadlock.
This workaround maintains a count of open ioctl-initiated transactions in
fs_info, and avoids wait_current_trans() if any are currently open (in
start_transaction() and btrfs_throttle()). The start transaction ioctl
uses a new btrfs_start_ioctl_transaction() that _does_ call
wait_current_trans(), effectively pushing the join/wait decision to the
outer ioctl-initiated transaction.
This more or less neuters btrfs_throttle() when ioctl-initiated
transactions are in use, but that seems like a pretty fundamental
consequence of wrapping lots of write()'s in a transaction. Btrfs has no
way to tell if the application considers a given operation as part of it's
transaction.
Obviously, if the transaction start/stop ioctls aren't being used, there
is no effect on current behavior.

To check whether a given file extent is referenced by multiple snapshots, the
checker walks down the fs tree through dead root and checks all tree blocks in
the path.
We can easily detect whether a given tree block is directly referenced by other
snapshot. We can also detect any indirect reference from other snapshot by
checking reference's generation. The checker can always detect multiple
references, but can't reliably detect cases of single reference. So btrfs may
do file data cow even there is only one reference.

A large reference cache is directly related to a lot of work pending
for the cleaner thread. This throttles back new operations based on
the size of the reference cache so the cleaner thread will be able to keep
up.
Overall, this actually makes the FS faster because the cleaner thread will
be more likely to find things in cache.

btrfs_commit_transaction has to loop waiting for any writers in the
transaction to finish before it can proceed. btrfs_start_transaction
should be polite and not join a transaction that is in the process
of being finished off.
There are a few places that can't wait, basically the ones doing IO that
might be needed to finish the transaction. For them, btrfs_join_transaction
is added.

The old data=ordered code would force commit to wait until
all the data extents from the transaction were fully on disk. This
introduced large latencies into the commit and stalled new writers
in the transaction for a long time.
The new code changes the way data allocations and extents work:
* When delayed allocation is filled, data extents are reserved, and
the extent bit EXTENT_ORDERED is set on the entire range of the extent.
A struct btrfs_ordered_extent is allocated an inserted into a per-inode
rbtree to track the pending extents.
* As each page is written EXTENT_ORDERED is cleared on the bytes corresponding
to that page.
* When all of the bytes corresponding to a single struct btrfs_ordered_extent
are written, The previously reserved extent is inserted into the FS
btree and into the extent allocation trees. The checksums for the file
data are also updated.

The btree defragger wasn't making forward progress because the new key wasn't
being saved by the btrfs_search_forward function.
This also disables the automatic btree defrag, it wasn't scaling well to
huge filesystems. The auto-defrag needs to be done differently.

The existing throttle mechanism was often not sufficient to prevent
new writers from coming in and making a given transaction run forever.
This adds an explicit wait at the end of most operations so they will
allow the current transaction to close.
There is no wait inside file_write, inode updates, or cow filling, all which
have different deadlock possibilities.
This is a temporary measure until better asynchronous commit support is
added. This code leads to stalls as it waits for data=ordered
writeback, and it really needs to be fixed.

There is now extent_map for mapping offsets in the file to disk and
extent_io for state tracking, IO submission and extent_bufers.
The new extent_map code shifts from [start,end] pairs to [start,len], and
pushes the locking out into the caller. This allows a few performance
optimizations and is easier to use.
A number of extent_map usage bugs were fixed, mostly with failing
to remove extent_map entries when changing the file.

It is very difficult to create a consistent snapshot of the btree when
other writers may update the btree before the commit is done.
This changes the snapshot creation to happen during the commit, while
no other updates are possible.

This forces file data extents down the disk along with the metadata that
references them. The current implementation is fairly simple, and just
writes out all of the dirty pages in an inode before the commit.
