2015-02-16ocfs2: wait for orphan recovery first once append O_DIRECT write crashJoseph Qi1-0/+2
If one node has crashed with orphan entry leftover, another node which do append O_DIRECT write to the same file will override the i_dio_orphaned_slot. Then the old entry won't be cleaned forever. If this case happens, we let it wait for orphan recovery first.

2014-04-03ocfs2: improve fsync efficiency and fix deadlock between aio_write and sync_fileDarrick J. Wong1-0/+7
Currently, ocfs2_sync_file grabs i_mutex and forces the current journal transaction to complete. This isn't terribly efficient, since sync_file really only needs to wait for the last transaction involving that inode to complete, and this doesn't require i_mutex. Therefore, implement the necessary bits to track the newest tid associated with an inode, and teach sync_file to wait for that instead of waiting for everything in the journal to commit. Furthermore, only issue the flush request to the drive if jbd2 hasn't already done so. This also eliminates the deadlock between ocfs2_file_aio_write() and ocfs2_sync_file(). aio_write takes i_mutex then calls ocfs2_aiodio_wait() to wait for unaligned dio writes to finish. However, if that dio completion involves calling fsync, then we can get into trouble when some ocfs2_sync_file tries to take i_mutex. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

2011-07-28ocfs2: serialize unaligned aioMark Fasheh1-0/+3
Fix a corruption that can happen when we have (two or more) outstanding aio's to an overlapping unaligned region. Ext4 (e9e3bcecf44c04b9e6b505fd8e2eb9cea58fb94d) and xfs recently had to fix similar issues. In our case what happens is that we can have an outstanding aio on a region and if a write comes in with some bytes overlapping the original aio we may decide to read that region into a page before continuing (typically because of buffered-io fallback). Since we have no ordering guarantees with the aio, we can read stale or bad data into the page and then write it back out. If the i/o is page and block aligned, then we avoid this issue as there won't be any need to read data from disk. I took the same approach as Eric in the ext4 patch and introduced some serialization of unaligned async direct i/o. I don't expect this to have an effect on the most common cases of AIO. Unaligned aio will be slower though, but that's far more acceptable than data corruption. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org>
2010-09-10Track negative entries v3Goldwyn Rodrigues1-0/+1
Track negative dentries by recording the generation number of the parent directory in d_fsdata. The generation number for the parent directory is recorded in the inode_info, which increments every time the lock on the directory is dropped. If the generation number of the parent directory and the negative dentry matches, there is no need to perform the revalidate, else a revalidate is forced. This improves performance in situations where nodes look for the same non-existent file multiple times. Thanks Mark for explaining the DLM sequence.

Currently in the error path of ocfs2_symlink and ocfs2_mknod, we just call iput with the inode we failed with, but the inode wipe code will complain because we don't add the inode to orphan dir. One solution would be to lock the orphan dir during the entire transaction, but that's too heavy for a rare error path.

Similar ip_last_trans, ip_created_trans tracks the creation of a journal managed inode. This specifically tracks what transaction created the inode. This is so the code can know if the inode has ever been written to disk. This behavior is desirable for any journal managed object.

2009-04-03ocfs2: fix rare stale inode errors when exporting via nfswengang wang1-0/+1
For nfs exporting, ocfs2_get_dentry() returns the dentry for fh. ocfs2_get_dentry() may read from disk when the inode is not in memory, without any cross cluster lock. this leads to the file system loading a stale inode. This patch fixes above problem. Solution is that in case of inode is not in memory, we get the cluster lock(PR) of alloc inode where the inode in question is allocated from (this causes node on which deletion is done sync the alloc inode) before reading out the inode itsself. then we check the bitmap in the group (the inode in question allcated from) to see if the bit is clear. if it's clear then it's stale. if the bit is set, we then check generation as the existing code does. We have to read out the inode in question from disk first to know its alloc slot and allot bit. And if its not stale we read it out using ocfs2_iget(). The second read should then be from cache. And also we have to add a per superblock nfs_sync_lock to cover the lock for alloc inode and that for inode in question. this is because ocfs2_get_dentry() and ocfs2_delete_inode() lock on them in reverse order. nfs_sync_lock is locked in EX mode in ocfs2_get_dentry() and in PR mode in ocfs2_delete_inode(). so that mutliple ocfs2_delete_inode() can run concurrently in normal case.

2009-04-03ocfs2: Optimize inode allocation by remembering last groupTao Ma1-0/+4
In ocfs2, the inode block search looks for the "emptiest" inode group to allocate from. So if an inode alloc file has many equally (or almost equally) empty groups, new inodes will tend to get spread out amongst them, which in turn can put them all over the disk. This is undesirable because directory operations on conceptually "nearby" inodes force a large number of seeks. So we add ip_last_used_group in core directory inodes which records the last used allocation group. Another field named ip_last_used_slot is also added in case inode stealing happens. When claiming new inode, we passed in directory's inode so that the allocation can use this information.

2009-01-05ocfs2: Implementation of local and global quota file handlingJan Kara1-0/+2
For each quota type each node has local quota file. In this file it stores changes users have made to disk usage via this node. Once in a while this information is synced to global file (and thus with other nodes) so that limits enforcement at least aproximately works. Global quota files contain all the information about usage and limits. It's mostly handled by the generic VFS code (which implements a trie of structures inside a quota file). We only have to provide functions to convert structures from on-disk format to in-memory one. We also have to provide wrappers for various quota functions starting transactions and acquiring necessary cluster locks before the actual IO is really started.

2009-01-05ocfs2: Wrap inode block reads in a dedicated function.Joel Becker1-2/+14
The ocfs2 code currently reads inodes off disk with a simple ocfs2_read_block() call. Each place that does this has a different set of sanity checks it performs. Some check only the signature. A couple validate the block number (the block read vs di->i_blkno). A couple others check for VALID_FL. Only one place validates i_fs_generation. A couple check nothing. Even when an error is found, they don't all do the same thing. We wrap inode reading into ocfs2_read_inode_block(). This will validate all the above fields, going readonly if they are invalid (they never should be). ocfs2_read_inode_block_full() is provided for the places that want to pass read_block flags. Every caller is passing a struct inode with a valid ip_blkno, so we don't need a separate blkno argument either. We will remove the validation checks from the rest of the code in a later commit, as they are no longer necessary.

The only functional change is moving to Jan's inode-based ordered data mode. It's better, too. Because JBD2 reads and writes JBD journals, this is compatible with any existing filesystem. It can even interact with JBD-based ocfs2 as long as the journal is formated for JBD. We provide a compatibility option so that paranoid people can still use JBD for the time being.

The extent map code was ripped out earlier because of an inability to deal with holes. This patch adds back a simpler caching scheme requiring far less code. Our old extent map caching was designed back when meta data block caching in Ocfs2 didn't work very well, resulting in many disk reads. These days our metadata caching is much better, resulting in no un-necessary disk reads. As a result, extent caching doesn't have to be as fancy, nor does it have to cache as many extents.

2006-09-24ocfs2: Remove i_generation from inode lock namesMark Fasheh1-1/+7
OCFS2 puts inode meta data in the "lock value block" provided by the DLM. Typically, i_generation is encoded in the lock name so that a deleted inode on and a new one in the same block don't share the same lvb. Unfortunately, that scheme means that the read in ocfs2_read_locked_inode() is potentially thrown away as soon as the meta data lock is taken - we cannot encode the lock name without first knowing i_generation, which requires a disk read. This patch encodes i_generation in the inode meta data lvb, and removes the value from the inode meta data lock name. This way, the read can be covered by a lock, and at the same time we can distinguish between an up to date and a stale LVB. This will help cold-cache stat(2) performance in particular. Since this patch changes the protocol version, we take the opportunity to do a minor re-organization of two of the LVB fields. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
