The iop_unlock method is called when comitting or cancelling a
transaction. In the latter case, the transaction may or may not be
aborted. While there is no known problem with the current code in
practice, this implementation is limited in that any log item
implementation that might want to differentiate between a commit and a
cancellation must rely on the aborted state. The aborted bit is only
set when the cancelled transaction is dirty, however. This means that
there is no way to distinguish between a commit and a clean transaction
cancellation.
For example, intent log items currently rely on this distinction. The
log item is either transferred to the CIL on commit or released on
transaction cancel. There is currently no possibility for a clean intent
log item in a transaction, but if that state is ever introduced a cancel
of such a transaction will immediately result in memory leaks of the
associated log item(s). This is an interface deficiency and landmine.
To clean this up, replace the iop_unlock method with an iop_release
method that is specific to transaction cancel. The existing
iop_committing method occurs at the same time as iop_unlock in the
commit path and there is no need for two separate callbacks here.
Overload the iop_committing method with the current commit time
iop_unlock implementations to eliminate the need for the latter and
further simplify the interface.

When retrying a failed inode or dquot buffer,
xfs_buf_resubmit_failed_buffers() clears all the failed flags from
the inde/dquot log items. In doing so, it also drops all the
reference counts on the buffer that the failed log items hold. This
means it can drop all the active references on the buffer and hence
free the buffer before it queues it for write again.
Putting the buffer on the delwri queue takes a reference to the
buffer (so that it hangs around until it has been written and
completed), but this goes bang if the buffer has already been freed.
Hence we need to add the buffer to the delwri queue before we remove
the failed flags from the log items attached to the buffer to ensure
it always remains referenced during the resubmit process.

The xfs_buf_log_item structure has a reference counter with slightly
tricky semantics. In the common case, a buffer is logged and
committed in a transaction, committed to the on-disk log (added to
the AIL) and then finally written back and removed from the AIL. The
bli refcount covers two potentially overlapping timeframes:
1. the bli is held in an active transaction
2. the bli is pinned by the log
The caveat to this approach is that the reference counter does not
purely dictate the lifetime of the bli. IOW, when a dirty buffer is
physically logged and unpinned, the bli refcount may go to zero as
the log item is inserted into the AIL. Only once the buffer is
written back can the bli finally be freed.
The above semantics means that it is not enough for the various
refcount decrementing contexts to release the bli on decrement to
zero. xfs_trans_brelse(), transaction commit (->iop_unlock()) and
unpin (->iop_unpin()) must all drop the associated reference and
make additional checks to determine if the current context is
responsible for freeing the item.
For example, if a transaction holds but does not dirty a particular
bli, the commit may drop the refcount to zero. If the bli itself is
clean, it is also not AIL resident and must be freed at this time.
The same is true for xfs_trans_brelse(). If the transaction dirties
a bli and then aborts or an unpin results in an abort due to a log
I/O error, the last reference count holder is expected to explicitly
remove the item from the AIL and release it (since an abort means
filesystem shutdown and metadata writeback will never occur).
This leads to fairly complex checks being replicated in a few
different places. Since ->iop_unlock() and xfs_trans_brelse() are
nearly identical, refactor the logic into a common helper that
implements and documents the semantics in one place. This patch does
not change behavior.

xfstests generic/388,475 occasionally reproduce assertion failures
in xfs_buf_item_unpin() when the final bli reference is dropped on
an invalidated buffer and the buffer is not locked as it is expected
to be. Invalidated buffers should remain locked on transaction
commit until the final unpin, at which point the buffer is removed
from the AIL and the bli is freed since stale buffers are not
written back.
The assert failures are associated with filesystem shutdown,
typically due to log I/O errors injected by the test. The
problematic situation can occur if the shutdown happens to cause a
race between an active transaction that has invalidated a particular
buffer and an I/O error on a log buffer that contains the bli
associated with the same (now stale) buffer.
Both transaction and log contexts acquire a bli reference. If the
transaction has already invalidated the buffer by the time the I/O
error occurs and ends up aborting due to shutdown, the transaction
and log hold the last two references to a stale bli. If the
transaction cancel occurs first, it treats the buffer as non-stale
due to the aborted state: the bli reference is dropped and the
buffer is released/unlocked. The log buffer I/O error handling
eventually calls into xfs_buf_item_unpin(), drops the final
reference to the bli and treats it as stale. The buffer wasn't left
locked by xfs_buf_item_unlock(), however, so the assert fails and
the buffer is double unlocked. The latter problem is mitigated by
the fact that the fs is shutdown and no further damage is possible.
->iop_unlock() of an invalidated buffer should behave consistently
with respect to the bli refcount, regardless of aborted state. If
the refcount remains elevated on commit, we know the bli is awaiting
an unpin (since it can't be in another transaction) and will be
handled appropriately on log buffer completion. If the final bli
reference of an invalidated buffer is dropped in ->iop_unlock(), we
can assume the transaction has aborted because invalidation implies
a dirty transaction. In the non-abort case, the log would have
acquired a bli reference in ->iop_pin() and prevented bli release at
->iop_unlock() time. In the abort case the item must be freed and
buffer unlocked because it wasn't pinned by the log.
Rework xfs_buf_item_unlock() to simplify the currently circuitous
and duplicate logic and leave invalidated buffers locked based on
bli refcount, regardless of aborted state. This ensures that a
pinned, stale buffer is always found locked when eventually
unpinned.

By splitting the b_fspriv field into two different fields (b_log_item

using the new b_log_item field to store xfs_buf_log_item separated from

This way, there is no more need to reorder the log items list to place
the buf_log_item at the beginning of the list, simplifying a bit the
logic to handle buffer IO.
This also opens the possibility to change buffer's log items list into a
proper list_head.
b_log_item field is still defined as a void *, because it is still used

xfs_buf_item_unlock() historically checked the dirty state of the
buffer by manually checking the buffer log formats for dirty
segments. The introduction of ordered buffers invalidated this check
because ordered buffers have dirty bli's but no dirty (logged)
segments. The check was updated to accommodate ordered buffers by
looking at the bli state first and considering the blf only if the
bli is clean.
This logic is safe but unnecessary. There is no valid case where the
bli is clean yet the blf has dirty segments. The bli is set dirty
whenever the blf is logged (via xfs_trans_log_buf()) and the blf is
cleared in the only place BLI_DIRTY is cleared (xfs_trans_binval()).
Remove the conditional blf dirty checks and replace with an assert
that should catch any discrepencies between bli and blf dirty

When a buffer has been failed during writeback, the inode items into it
are kept flush locked, and are never resubmitted due the flush lock, so,
if any buffer fails to be written, the items in AIL are never written to
disk and never unlocked.
This causes unmount operation to hang due these items flush locked in AIL,
but this also causes the items in AIL to never be written back, even when
the IO device comes back to normal.
I've been testing this patch with a DM-thin device, creating a
filesystem larger than the real device.
When writing enough data to fill the DM-thin device, XFS receives ENOSPC
errors from the device, and keep spinning on xfsaild (when 'retry
forever' configuration is set).
At this point, the filesystem can not be unmounted because of the flush locked
items in AIL, but worse, the items in AIL are never retried at all
(once xfs_inode_item_push() will skip the items that are flush locked),
even if the underlying DM-thin device is expanded to the proper size.
This patch fixes both cases, retrying any item that has been failed
previously, using the infra-structure provided by the previous patch.

When a buffer is modified, logged and committed, it ultimately ends
up sitting on the AIL with a dirty bli waiting for metadata
writeback. If another transaction locks and invalidates the buffer
(freeing an inode chunk, for example) in the meantime, the bli is
flagged as stale, the dirty state is cleared and the bli remains in
the AIL.
If a shutdown occurs before the transaction that has invalidated the
buffer is committed, the transaction is ultimately aborted. The log
items are flagged as such and ->iop_unlock() handles the aborted
items. Because the bli is clean (due to the invalidation),
->iop_unlock() unconditionally releases it. The log item may still
reside in the AIL, however, which means the I/O completion handler
may still run and attempt to access it. This results in assert
failure due to the release of the bli while still present in the AIL
and a subsequent NULL dereference and panic in the buffer I/O
completion handling. This can be reproduced by running generic/388
in repetition.
To avoid this problem, update xfs_buf_item_unlock() to first check
whether the bli is aborted and if so, remove it from the AIL before
it is released. This ensures that the bli is no longer accessed
during the shutdown sequence after it has been freed.

A retry_timeout_seconds of 0 means "retry forever," but a

retry_timeout_seconds < 0 is disallowed, while max_retries == -1

Make this consistent across the error configs, such that a value of

This makes retry_timeout a signed long to accommodate the -1, even

One of the problems we currently have with delayed logging is that
under serious memory pressure we can deadlock memory reclaim. THis
occurs when memory reclaim (such as run by kswapd) is reclaiming XFS
inodes and issues a log force to unpin inodes that are dirty in the
CIL.
The CIL is pushed, but this will only occur once it gets the CIL
context lock to ensure that all committing transactions are complete
and no new transactions start being committed to the CIL while the
push switches to a new context.
The deadlock occurs when the CIL context lock is held by a
committing process that is doing memory allocation for log vector
buffers, and that allocation is then blocked on memory reclaim
making progress. Memory reclaim, however, is blocked waiting for
a log force to make progress, and so we effectively deadlock at this
point.
To solve this problem, we have to move the CIL log vector buffer
allocation outside of the context lock so that memory reclaim can
always make progress when it needs to force the log. The problem
with doing this is that a CIL push can take place while we are
determining if we need to allocate a new log vector buffer for
an item and hence the current log vector may go away without
warning. That means we canot rely on the existing log vector being
present when we finally grab the context lock and so we must have a
replacement buffer ready to go at all times.
To ensure this, introduce a "shadow log vector" buffer that is
always guaranteed to be present when we gain the CIL context lock
and format the item. This shadow buffer may or may not be used
during the formatting, but if the log item does not have an existing
log vector buffer or that buffer is too small for the new
modifications, we swap it for the new shadow buffer and format
the modifications into that new log vector buffer.
The result of this is that for any object we modify more than once
in a given CIL checkpoint, we double the memory required
to track dirty regions in the log. For single modifications then
we consume the shadow log vectorwe allocate on commit, and that gets
consumed by the checkpoint. However, if we make multiple
modifications, then the second transaction commit will allocate a
shadow log vector and hence we will end up with double the memory
usage as only one of the log vectors is consumed by the CIL
checkpoint. The remaining shadow vector will be freed when th elog
item is freed.
This can probably be optimised in future - access to the shadow log
vector is serialised by the object lock (as opposited to the active
log vector, which is controlled by the CIL context lock) and so we
can probably free shadow log vector from some objects when the log
item is marked clean on removal from the AIL.

With the code as it stands today, b_retries never increments because
it gets reset to 0 in the error callback.
Remove that, and fix a similar problem where the first retry time
was constantly being overwritten, which defeated the timeout tunable
as well. We now only set first retry time if a non-zero timeout is
set, to match the behavior of only incrementing retries if a retry
value is set.
This way max retries & timeouts consistently take effect after a
tunable is set, rather than acting retroactively on a buffer which
has failed at some point in the past and has accumulated state from
those prior failures.
Thanks to dchinner for talking through this with me.

Fix up a couple places where extra flag manipulation occurs.
In the first case we clear XBF_ASYNC and then immediately reset it -
so don't bother clearing in the first place.
In the 2nd case we are at a point in the function where the buffer
must already be async, so there is no need to reset it.
Add consistent spacing around the " | " while we're at it.

Multi-block buffers are logged based on buffer offset in
xfs_trans_log_buf(). xfs_buf_item_log() ultimately walks each mapping in
the buffer and marks the associated range to be logged in the
xfs_buf_log_format bitmap for that mapping. This code is broken,
however, in that it marks the actual buffer offsets of the associated
range in each bitmap rather than shifting to the byte range for that
particular mapping.
For example, on a 4k fsb fs, buffer offset 4096 refers to the first byte
of the second mapping in the buffer. This means byte 0 of the second log
format bitmap should be tagged as dirty. Instead, the current code marks
byte offset 4096 of the second log format bitmap, which is invalid and
potentially out of range of the mapping.
As a result of this, the log item format code invoked at transaction
commit time is not be able to correctly identify what parts of the
buffer to copy into log vectors. This can lead to NULL log vector
pointer dereferences in CIL push context if the item format code was not
able to locate any dirty ranges at all. This crash has been reproduced
on a 4k FSB filesystem using 16k directory blocks where an unlink
operation happened not to log anything in the first block of the
mapping. The logged offsets were all over 4k, marked as such in the
subsequent log format mappings, and thus left the transaction with an
xfs_log_item that is marked DIRTY but without any logged regions.
Further, even when the logged regions are marked correctly in the buffer
log format bitmaps, the format code doesn't copy the correct ranges of
the buffer into the log. This means that any logged region beyond the
first block of a multi-block buffer is subject to corruption after a
crash and log recovery sequence. This is due to a failure to convert the
mapping bm_len field from basic blocks to bytes in the buffer offset
tracking code in xfs_buf_item_format().
Update xfs_buf_item_log() to convert buffer offsets to segment relative
offsets when logging multi-block buffers. This ensures that the modified
regions of a buffer are logged correctly and avoids the aforementioned
crash. Also update xfs_buf_item_format() to correctly track the source
offset into the buffer for the log vector formatting code. This ensures
that the correct data is copied into the log.

If we take "retry forever" literally on metadata IO errors, we can
hang at unmount, once it retries those writes forever. This is the
default behavior, unfortunately.
Add an error configuration option for this behavior and default it
to "fail" so that an unmount will trigger actuall errors, a shutdown
and allow the unmount to succeed. It will be noisy, though, as it
will log the errors and shutdown that occurs.
To fix this, we need to mark the filesystem as being in the process
of unmounting. Do this with a mount flag that is added at the
appropriate time (i.e. before the blocking AIL sync). We also need
to add this flag if mount fails after the initial phase of log
recovery has been run.

On reception of an error, we can fail immediately, perform some
bound amount of retries or retry indefinitely. The current behaviour
we have is to retry forever.
However, we'd like the ability to choose how long the filesystem
should try after an error, it can either fail immediately, retry a
few times, or retry forever. This is implemented by using
max_retries sysfs attribute, to hold the amount of times we allow
the filesystem to retry after an error. Being -1 a special case
where the filesystem will retry indefinitely.
Add both a maximum retry count and a retry timeout so that we can
bound by time and/or physical IO attempts.
Finally, plumb these into xfs_buf_iodone error processing so that
the error behaviour follows the selected configuration.

With the error configuration handle for async metadata write errors
in place, we can now add initial support to the IO error processing
in xfs_buf_iodone_error().
Add an infrastructure function to look up the configuration handle,
and rearrange the error handling to prepare the way for different
error handling conigurations to be used.
