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.

The xfs_defer_ops ->dop_pending list is used to track active
deferred operations once intents are logged. These items must be
aborted in the event of an error. The list is populated as intents
are logged and items are removed as they complete (or are aborted).
Now that xfs_defer_finish() cancels on error, there is no need to
ever access ->dop_pending outside of xfs_defer_finish(). The list is
only ever populated after xfs_defer_finish() begins and is either
completed or cancelled before it returns.
Remove ->dop_pending from xfs_defer_ops and replace it with a local
list in the xfs_defer_finish() path. Pass the local list to the
various helpers now that it is not accessible via dfops. Note that
we have to check for NULL in the abort case as the final tx roll
occurs outside of the scope of the new local list (once the dfops
has completed and thus drained the list).

The dop_low field enables the low free space allocation mode when a
previous allocation has detected difficulty allocating blocks. It
has historically been part of the xfs_defer_ops structure, which
means if enabled, it remains enabled across a set of transactions
until the deferred operations have completed and the dfops is reset.
Now that the dfops is embedded in the transaction, we can save a bit
more space by using a transaction flag rather than a standalone
boolean. Drop the ->dop_low field and replace it with a transaction
flag that is set at the same points, carried across rolling
transactions and cleared on completion of deferred operations. This
essentially emulates the behavior of ->dop_low and so should not
change behavior.

The AGFL fixup code executes before every block allocation/free and
rectifies the AGFL based on the current, dynamic allocation
requirements of the fs. The AGFL must hold a minimum number of
blocks to satisfy a worst case split of the free space btrees caused
by the impending allocation operation. The AGFL is also updated to
maintain the implicit requirement for a minimum number of free slots
to satisfy a worst case join of the free space btrees.
Since the AGFL caches individual blocks, AGFL reduction typically
involves multiple, single block frees. We've had reports of
transaction overrun problems during certain workloads that boil down
to AGFL reduction freeing multiple blocks and consuming more space
in the log than was reserved for the transaction.
Since the objective of freeing AGFL blocks is to ensure free AGFL
free slots are available for the upcoming allocation, one way to
address this problem is to release surplus blocks from the AGFL
immediately but defer the free of those blocks (similar to how
file-mapped blocks are unmapped from the file in one transaction and
freed via a deferred operation) until the transaction is rolled.
This turns AGFL reduction into an operation with predictable log
reservation consumption.
Add the capability to defer AGFL block frees when a deferred ops
list is available to the AGFL fixup code. Add a dfops pointer to the
transaction to carry dfops through various contexts to the allocator
context. Deferring AGFL frees is conditional behavior based on
whether the transaction pointer is populated. The long term
objective is to reuse the transaction pointer to clean up all
unrelated callchains that pass dfops on the stack along with a
transaction and in doing so, consistently defer AGFL blocks from the
allocator.
A bit of customization is required to handle deferred completion
processing because AGFL blocks are accounted against a per-ag
reservation pool and AGFL blocks are not inserted into the extent
busy list when freed (they are inserted when used and released back
to the AGFL). Reuse the majority of the existing deferred extent
free infrastructure and customize it appropriately to handle AGFL
blocks.
Note that this patch only adds infrastructure. It does not change
behavior because no callers have been updated to pass ->t_agfl_dfops
into the allocation code.

The filestreams allocator stores an xfs_fstrm_item structure in the MRU to
cache inode number to agno mappings for a particular length of time. Each
xfs_fstrm_item contains the internal MRU structure, an inode pointer and
agno value.
The inode pointer stored in the xfs_fstrm_item is not referenced, however,
which means the inode itself can be removed and reclaimed before the MRU
item is freed. If this occurs, xfs_fstrm_free_func() can access freed or
unrelated memory through xfs_fstrm_item->ip and crash.
The obvious solution is to grab an inode reference for xfs_fstrm_item.
The filestream mechanism only actually uses the inode pointer as a means
to access the xfs_mount, however. Rather than add unnecessary
complexity, simplify the implementation to store an xfs_mount pointer in
struct xfs_mru_cache, and pass it to the free callback. This also
requires updates to the tracepoint class to provide the associated data
via parameters rather than the inode and a minor hack to peek at the MRU
key to establish the inode number at free time.
Based on debugging work and an earlier patch from Brian Foster, who
also wrote most of this changelog.

The struct xfs_agfl v5 header was originally introduced with
unexpected padding that caused the AGFL to operate with one less
slot than intended. The header has since been packed, but the fix
left an incompatibility for users who upgrade from an old kernel
with the unpacked header to a newer kernel with the packed header
while the AGFL happens to wrap around the end. The newer kernel
recognizes one extra slot at the physical end of the AGFL that the
previous kernel did not. The new kernel will eventually attempt to
allocate a block from that slot, which contains invalid data, and
cause a crash.
This condition can be detected by comparing the active range of the
AGFL to the count. While this detects a padding mismatch, it can
also trigger false positives for unrelated flcount corruption. Since
we cannot distinguish a size mismatch due to padding from unrelated
corruption, we can't trust the AGFL enough to simply repopulate the
empty slot.
Instead, avoid unnecessarily complex detection logic and and use a
solution that can handle any form of flcount corruption that slips
through read verifiers: distrust the entire AGFL and reset it to an
empty state. Any valid blocks within the AGFL are intentionally
leaked. This requires xfs_repair to rectify (which was already
necessary based on the state the AGFL was found in). The reset
mitigates the side effect of the padding mismatch problem from a
filesystem crash to a free space accounting inconsistency. The
generic approach also means that this patch can be safely backported
to kernels with or without a packed struct xfs_agfl.
Check the AGF for an invalid freelist count on initial read from
disk. If detected, set a flag on the xfs_perag to indicate that a
reset is required before the AGFL can be used. In the first
transaction that attempts to use a flagged AGFL, reset it to empty,
warn the user about the inconsistency and allow the freelist fixup
code to repopulate the AGFL with new blocks. The xfs_perag flag is
cleared to eliminate the need for repeated checks on each block
allocation operation.
This allows kernels that include the packing fix commit 96f859d52b
("libxfs: pack the agfl header structure so XFS_AGFL_SIZE is correct")
to handle older unpacked AGFL formats without a filesystem crash.

Replace the current linear list and the indirection array for the in-core
extent list with a b+tree to avoid the need for larger memory allocations
for the indirection array when lots of extents are present. The current
extent list implementations leads to heavy pressure on the memory
allocator when modifying files with a high extent count, and can lead
to high latencies because of that.
The replacement is a b+tree with a few quirks. The leaf nodes directly
store the extent record in two u64 values. The encoding is a little bit
different from the existing in-core extent records so that the start
offset and length which are required for lookups can be retreived with
simple mask operations. The inner nodes store a 64-bit key containing
the start offset in the first half of the node, and the pointers to the
next lower level in the second half. In either case we walk the node
from the beginninig to the end and do a linear search, as that is more
efficient for the low number of cache lines touched during a search
(2 for the inner nodes, 4 for the leaf nodes) than a binary search.
We store termination markers (zero length for the leaf nodes, an
otherwise impossible high bit for the inner nodes) to terminate the key
list / records instead of storing a count to use the available cache
lines as efficiently as possible.
One quirk of the algorithm is that while we normally split a node half and
half like usual btree implementations we just spill over entries added at
the very end of the list to a new node on its own. This means we get a
100% fill grade for the common cases of bulk insertion when reading an
inode into memory, and when only sequentially appending to a file. The
downside is a slightly higher chance of splits on the first random
insertions.
Both insert and removal manually recurse into the lower levels, but
the bulk deletion of the whole tree is still implemented as a recursive
function call, although one limited by the overall depth and with very
little stack usage in every iteration.
For the first few extents we dynamically grow the list from a single
extent to the next powers of two until we have a first full leaf block
and that building the actual tree.
The code started out based on the generic lib/btree.c code from Joern
Engel based on earlier work from Peter Zijlstra, but has since been
rewritten beyond recognition.

Ordered buffers pass through the logging infrastructure without ever
being written to the log. The way this works is that the ordered
buffer status is transferred to the log vector at commit time via
the ->iop_size() callback. In xlog_cil_insert_format_items(),
ordered log vectors bypass ->iop_format() processing altogether.
Therefore it is unnecessary for xfs_buf_item_format() to handle
ordered buffers. Remove the unnecessary logic and assert that an
ordered buffer never reaches this point.

Reclaim during quotacheck can lead to deadlocks on the dquot flush
lock:
- Quotacheck populates a local delwri queue with the physical dquot
buffers.
- Quotacheck performs the xfs_qm_dqusage_adjust() bulkstat and
dirties all of the dquots.
- Reclaim kicks in and attempts to flush a dquot whose buffer is
already queud on the quotacheck queue. The flush succeeds but
queueing to the reclaim delwri queue fails as the backing buffer is
already queued. The flush unlock is now deferred to I/O completion
of the buffer from the quotacheck queue.
- The dqadjust bulkstat continues and dirties the recently flushed
dquot once again.
- Quotacheck proceeds to the xfs_qm_flush_one() walk which requires
the flush lock to update the backing buffers with the in-core
recalculated values. It deadlocks on the redirtied dquot as the
flush lock was already acquired by reclaim, but the buffer resides
on the local delwri queue which isn't submitted until the end of
quotacheck.
This is reproduced by running quotacheck on a filesystem with a
couple million inodes in low memory (512MB-1GB) situations. This is
a regression as of commit 43ff2122e6 ("xfs: on-stack delayed write
buffer lists"), which removed a trylock and buffer I/O submission
from the quotacheck dquot flush sequence.
Quotacheck first resets and collects the physical dquot buffers in a
delwri queue. Then, it traverses the filesystem inodes via bulkstat,
updates the in-core dquots, flushes the corrected dquots to the
backing buffers and finally submits the delwri queue for I/O. Since
the backing buffers are queued across the entire quotacheck
operation, dquot reclaim cannot possibly complete a dquot flush
before quotacheck completes.
Therefore, quotacheck must submit the buffer for I/O in order to
cycle the flush lock and flush the dirty in-core dquot to the
buffer. Add a delwri queue buffer push mechanism to submit an
individual buffer for I/O without losing the delwri queue status and
use it from quotacheck to avoid the deadlock. This restores
quotacheck behavior to as before the regression was introduced.

Patch series "1G transparent hugepage support for device dax", v2.
The following series implements support for 1G trasparent hugepage on
x86 for device dax. The bulk of the code was written by Mathew Wilcox a
while back supporting transparent 1G hugepage for fs DAX. I have
forward ported the relevant bits to 4.10-rc. The current submission has
only the necessary code to support device DAX.
Comments from Dan Williams: So the motivation and intended user of this
functionality mirrors the motivation and users of 1GB page support in
hugetlbfs. Given expected capacities of persistent memory devices an
in-memory database may want to reduce tlb pressure beyond what they can
already achieve with 2MB mappings of a device-dax file. We have
customer feedback to that effect as Willy mentioned in his previous
version of these patches [1].
[1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/31/52
Comments from Nilesh @ Oracle:
There are applications which have a process model; and if you assume
10,000 processes attempting to mmap all the 6TB memory available on a
server; we are looking at the following:
processes : 10,000
memory : 6TB
pte @ 4k page size: 8 bytes / 4K of memory * #processes = 6TB / 4k * 8 * 10000 = 1.5GB * 80000 = 120,000GB
pmd @ 2M page size: 120,000 / 512 = ~240GB
pud @ 1G page size: 240GB / 512 = ~480MB
As you can see with 2M pages, this system will use up an exorbitant
amount of DRAM to hold the page tables; but the 1G pages finally brings
it down to a reasonable level. Memory sizes will keep increasing; so
this number will keep increasing.
An argument can be made to convert the applications from process model
to thread model, but in the real world that may not be always practical.
Hopefully this helps explain the use case where this is valuable.
This patch (of 3):
In preparation for adding the ability to handle PUD pages, convert
vm_operations_struct.pmd_fault to vm_operations_struct.huge_fault. The
vm_fault structure is extended to include a union of the different page
table pointers that may be needed, and three flag bits are reserved to
indicate which type of pointer is in the union.

We currently fall back from direct to buffered writes if we detect a
remaining shared extent in the iomap_begin callback. But by the time
iomap_begin is called for the potentially unaligned end block we might
have already written most of the data to disk, which we'd now write
again using buffered I/O. To avoid this reject all writes to reflinked
files before starting I/O so that we are guaranteed to only write the
data once.
The alternative would be to unshare the unaligned start and/or end block
before doing the I/O. I think that's doable, and will actually be
required to support reflinks on DAX file system. But it will take a
little more time and I'd rather get rid of the double write ASAP.

Christoph Hellwig pointed out that there's a potentially nasty race when
performing simultaneous nearby directio cow writes:
"Thread 1 writes a range from B to c
" B --------- C
p
"a little later thread 2 writes from A to B
" A --------- B
p
[editor's note: the 'p' denote cowextsize boundaries, which I added to
make this more clear]
"but the code preallocates beyond B into the range where thread
"1 has just written, but ->end_io hasn't been called yet.
"But once ->end_io is called thread 2 has already allocated
"up to the extent size hint into the write range of thread 1,
"so the end_io handler will splice the unintialized blocks from
"that preallocation back into the file right after B."
We can avoid this race by ensuring that thread 1 cannot accidentally
remap the blocks that thread 2 allocated (as part of speculative
preallocation) as part of t2's write preparation in t1's end_io handler.
The way we make this happen is by taking advantage of the unwritten
extent flag as an intermediate step.
Recall that when we begin the process of writing data to shared blocks,
we create a delayed allocation extent in the CoW fork:
D: --RRRRRRSSSRRRRRRRR---
C: ------DDDDDDD---------
When a thread prepares to CoW some dirty data out to disk, it will now
convert the delalloc reservation into an /unwritten/ allocated extent in
the cow fork. The da conversion code tries to opportunistically
allocate as much of a (speculatively prealloc'd) extent as possible, so
we may end up allocating a larger extent than we're actually writing
out:
D: --RRRRRRSSSRRRRRRRR---
U: ------UUUUUUU---------
Next, we convert only the part of the extent that we're actively
planning to write to normal (i.e. not unwritten) status:
D: --RRRRRRSSSRRRRRRRR---
U: ------UURRUUU---------
If the write succeeds, the end_cow function will now scan the relevant
range of the CoW fork for real extents and remap only the real extents
into the data fork:
D: --RRRRRRRRSRRRRRRRR---
U: ------UU--UUU---------
This ensures that we never obliterate valid data fork extents with
unwritten blocks from the CoW fork.

Pull XFS support for shared data extents from Dave Chinner:
"This is the second part of the XFS updates for this merge cycle. This
pullreq contains the new shared data extents feature for XFS.
Given the complexity and size of this change I am expecting - like the
addition of reverse mapping last cycle - that there will be some
follow-up bug fixes and cleanups around the -rc3 stage for issues that
I'm sure will show up once the code hits a wider userbase.
What it is:
At the most basic level we are simply adding shared data extents to
XFS - i.e. a single extent on disk can now have multiple owners. To do
this we have to add new on-disk features to both track the shared
extents and the number of times they've been shared. This is done by
the new "refcount" btree that sits in every allocation group. When we
share or unshare an extent, this tree gets updated.
Along with this new tree, the reverse mapping tree needs to be updated
to track each owner or a shared extent. This also needs to be updated
ever share/unshare operation. These interactions at extent allocation
and freeing time have complex ordering and recovery constraints, so
there's a significant amount of new intent-based transaction code to
ensure that operations are performed atomically from both the runtime
and integrity/crash recovery perspectives.
We also need to break sharing when writes hit a shared extent - this
is where the new copy-on-write implementation comes in. We allocate
new storage and copy the original data along with the overwrite data
into the new location. We only do this for data as we don't share
metadata at all - each inode has it's own metadata that tracks the
shared data extents, the extents undergoing CoW and it's own private
extents.
Of course, being XFS, nothing is simple - we use delayed allocation
for CoW similar to how we use it for normal writes. ENOSPC is a
significant issue here - we build on the reservation code added in
4.8-rc1 with the reverse mapping feature to ensure we don't get
spurious ENOSPC issues part way through a CoW operation. These
mechanisms also help minimise fragmentation due to repeated CoW
operations. To further reduce fragmentation overhead, we've also
introduced a CoW extent size hint, which indicates how large a region
we should allocate when we execute a CoW operation.
With all this functionality in place, we can hook up .copy_file_range,
.clone_file_range and .dedupe_file_range and we gain all the
capabilities of reflink and other vfs provided functionality that
enable manipulation to shared extents. We also added a fallocate mode
that explicitly unshares a range of a file, which we implemented as an
explicit CoW of all the shared extents in a file.
As such, it's a huge chunk of new functionality with new on-disk
format features and internal infrastructure. It warns at mount time as
an experimental feature and that it may eat data (as we do with all
new on-disk features until they stabilise). We have not released
userspace suport for it yet - userspace support currently requires
download from Darrick's xfsprogs repo and build from source, so the
access to this feature is really developer/tester only at this point.
Initial userspace support will be released at the same time the kernel
with this code in it is released.
The new code causes 5-6 new failures with xfstests - these aren't
serious functional failures but things the output of tests changing
slightly due to perturbations in layouts, space usage, etc. OTOH,
we've added 150+ new tests to xfstests that specifically exercise this
new functionality so it's got far better test coverage than any
functionality we've previously added to XFS.
Darrick has done a pretty amazing job getting us to this stage, and
special mention also needs to go to Christoph (review, testing,
improvements and bug fixes) and Brian (caught several intricate bugs
during review) for the effort they've also put in.
Summary:
