2019-04-16xfs: implement per-inode writeback completion queuesDarrick J. Wong1-1/+0
When scheduling writeback of dirty file data in the page cache, XFS uses IO completion workqueue items to ensure that filesystem metadata only updates after the write completes successfully. This is essential for converting unwritten extents to real extents at the right time and performing COW remappings. Unfortunately, XFS queues each IO completion work item to an unbounded workqueue, which means that the kernel can spawn dozens of threads to try to handle the items quickly. These threads need to take the ILOCK to update file metadata, which results in heavy ILOCK contention if a large number of the work items target a single file, which is inefficient. Worse yet, the writeback completion threads get stuck waiting for the ILOCK while holding transaction reservations, which can use up all available log reservation space. When that happens, metadata updates to other parts of the filesystem grind to a halt, even if the filesystem could otherwise have handled it. Even worse, if one of the things grinding to a halt happens to be a thread in the middle of a defer-ops finish holding the same ILOCK and trying to obtain more log reservation having exhausted the permanent reservation, we now have an ABBA deadlock - writeback completion has a transaction reserved and wants the ILOCK, and someone else has the ILOCK and wants a transaction reservation. Therefore, we create a per-inode writeback io completion queue + work item. When writeback finishes, it can add the ioend to the per-inode queue and let the single worker item process that queue. This dramatically cuts down on the number of kworkers and ILOCK contention in the system, and seems to have eliminated an occasional deadlock I was seeing while running generic/476. Testing with a program that simulates a heavy random-write workload to a single file demonstrates that the number of kworkers drops from approximately 120 threads per file to 1, without dramatically changing write bandwidth or pagecache access latency. Note that we leave the xfs-conv workqueue's max_active alone because we still want to be able to run ioend processing for as many inodes as the system can handle. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

We can handle the existing cow mapping case as a special case directly in xfs_writepage_map, and share code for allocating delalloc blocks with regular I/O in xfs_map_blocks. This means we need to always call xfs_map_blocks for reflink inodes, but we can still skip most of the work if it turns out that there is no COW mapping overlapping the current block. As a subtle detail we need to start caching holes in the wpc to deal with the case of COW reservations between EOF. But we'll need that infrastructure later anyway, so this is no big deal.

Straight switch over to using iomap for direct I/O - we already have the non-COW dio path in write_begin for DAX and files with extent size hints, so nothing to add there.

This gets rid of xfs_get_blocks_direct and the last caller of xfs_get_blocks with the create flag set, so all that code can be removed. Last but not least I've removed a comment in xfs_filemap_fault that refers to xfs_get_blocks entirely instead of updating it - while the reference is correct, the whole DAX fault path looks different than the non-DAX one, so it seems rather pointless.

Furthermore, when we're doing non-cow writes to a part of a file that already has a CoW reservation (the cowextsz hint that we set up in a subsequent patch facilitates this), promote the write to copy-on-write so that the entire extent can get written out as a single extent on disk, thereby reducing post-CoW fragmentation.

Second it uses the block layer bio chaining mechanism to chain additional bios off this first one if needed instead of manually accounting for multiple bio completions in the ioend structure.

2016-04-06xfs: don't release bios on completion immediatelyDave Chinner1-2/+3
Completion of an ioend requires us to walk the bufferhead list to end writback on all the bufferheads. This, in turn, is needed so that we can end writeback on all the pages we just did IO on. To remove our dependency on bufferheads in writeback, we need to turn this around the other way - we need to walk the pages we've just completed IO on, and then walk the buffers attached to the pages and complete their IO. In doing this, we remove the requirement for the ioend to track bufferheads directly. To enable IO completion to walk all the pages we've submitted IO on, we need to keep the bios that we used for IO around until the ioend has been completed. We can do this simply by chaining the bios to the ioend at completion time, and then walking their pages directly just before destroying the ioend.

2016-04-06xfs: build bios directly in xfs_add_to_ioendDave Chinner1-0/+1
Currently adding a buffer to the ioend and then building a bio from the buffer list are two separate operations. We don't build the bios and submit them until the ioend is submitted, and this places a fixed dependency on bufferhead chaining in the ioend. The first step to removing the bufferhead chaining in the ioend is on the IO submission side. We can build the bio directly as we add the buffers to the ioend chain, thereby removing the need for a latter "buffer-to-bio" submission loop. This allows us to submit bios on large ioends as soon as we cannot add more data to the bio. These bios then get captured by the active plug, and hence will be dispatched as soon as either the plug overflows or we schedule away from the writeback context. This will reduce submission latency for large IOs, but will also allow more timely request queue based writeback blocking when the device becomes congested.

2016-02-27dax: give DAX clearing code correct bdevRoss Zwisler1-0/+1
dax_clear_blocks() needs a valid struct block_device and previously it was using inode->i_sb->s_bdev in all cases. This is correct for normal inodes on mounted ext2, ext4 and XFS filesystems, but is incorrect for DAX raw block devices and for XFS real-time devices. Instead, rename dax_clear_blocks() to dax_clear_sectors(), and change its arguments to take a bdev and a sector instead of an inode and a block. This better reflects what the function does, and it allows the filesystem and raw block device code to pass in an appropriate struct block_device.

2016-02-15xfs: don't chain ioends during writepage submissionDave Chinner1-1/+1
Currently we can build a long ioend chain during ->writepages that gets attached to the writepage context. IO submission only then occurs when we finish all the writepage processing. This means we can have many ioends allocated and pending, and this violates the mempool guarantees that we need to give about forwards progress. i.e. we really should only have one ioend being built at a time, otherwise we may drain the mempool trying to allocate a new ioend and that blocks submission, completion and freeing of ioends that are already in progress. To prevent this situation from happening, we need to submit ioends for IO as soon as they are ready for dispatch rather than queuing them for later submission. This means the ioends have bios built immediately and they get queued on any plug that is current active. Hence if we schedule away from writeback, the ioends that have been built will make forwards progress due to the plug flushing on context switch. This will also prevent context switches from creating unnecessary IO submission latency. We can't completely avoid having nested IO allocation - when we have a block size smaller than a page size, we still need to hold the ioend submission until after we have marked the current page dirty. Hence we may need multiple ioends to be held while the current page is completely mapped and made ready for IO dispatch. We cannot avoid this problem - the current code already has this ioend chaining within a page so we can mostly ignore that it occurs.

2016-02-15xfs: Introduce writeback context for writepagesDave Chinner1-0/+2
xfs_vm_writepages() calls generic_writepages to writeback a range of a file, but then xfs_vm_writepage() clusters pages itself as it does not have any context it can pass between->writepage calls from __write_cache_pages(). Introduce a writeback context for xfs_vm_writepages() and call __write_cache_pages directly with our own writepage callback so that we can pass that context to each writepage invocation. This encapsulates the current mapping, whether it is valid or not, the current ioend and it's IO type and the ioend chain being built. This requires us to move the ioend submission up to the level where the writepage context is declared. This does mean we do not submit IO until we packaged the entire writeback range, but with the block plugging in the writepages call this is the way IO is submitted, anyway. It also means that we need to handle discontiguous page ranges. If the pages sent down by write_cache_pages to the writepage callback are discontiguous, we need to detect this and put each discontiguous page range into individual ioends. This is needed to ensure that the ioend accurately represents the range of the file that it covers so that file size updates during IO completion set the size correctly. Failure to take into account the discontiguous ranges results in files being too small when writeback patterns are non-sequential.

2015-11-03xfs: fix inode size update overflow in xfs_map_direct()Dave Chinner1-0/+2
Both direct IO and DAX pass an offset and count into get_blocks that will overflow a s64 variable when an IO goes into the last supported block in a file (i.e. at offset 2^63 - 1FSB bytes). This can be seen from the tracing: xfs_get_blocks_alloc: [...] offset 0x7ffffffffffff000 count 4096 xfs_gbmap_direct: [...] offset 0x7ffffffffffff000 count 4096 xfs_gbmap_direct_none:[...] offset 0x7ffffffffffff000 count 4096 0x7ffffffffffff000 + 4096 = 0x8000000000000000, and hence that overflows the s64 offset and we fail to detect the need for a filesize update and an ioend is not allocated. This is *mostly* avoided for direct IO because such extending IOs occur with full block allocation, and so the "IS_UNWRITTEN()" check still evaluates as true and we get an ioend that way. However, doing single sector extending IOs to this last block will expose the fact that file size updates will not occur after the first allocating direct IO as the overflow will then be exposed. There is one further complexity: the DAX page fault path also exposes the same issue in block allocation. However, page faults cannot extend the file size, so in this case we want to allocate the block but do not want to allocate an ioend to enable file size update at IO completion. Hence we now need to distinguish between the direct IO patch allocation and dax fault path allocation to avoid leaking ioend structures.

This replaces opencoded and less efficient code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO) and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO. The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating with the filesystems. Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara.

In addition to causing various problems with updates getting delayed for far too long this also drags in the unscalable VFS dirty tracking, and is one of the few remaining unlogged metadata updates.

2012-03-05xfs: use per-filesystem I/O completion workqueuesChristoph Hellwig1-2/+0
The new concurrency managed workqueues are cheap enough that we can create per-filesystem instead of global workqueues. This allows us to remove the trylock or defer scheme on the ilock, which is not helpful once we have outstanding log reservations until finishing a size update. Also allow the default concurrency on this workqueues so that I/O completions blocking on the ilock for one inode do not block process for another inode.

2011-10-11xfs: remove i_iocountChristoph Hellwig1-3/+0
We now have an i_dio_count filed and surrounding infrastructure to wait for direct I/O completion instead of i_icount, and we have never needed to iocount waits for buffered I/O given that we only set the page uptodate after finishing all required work. Thus remove i_iocount, and replace the actually needed waits with calls to inode_dio_wait.

2011-10-11xfs: defer AIO/DIO completionsChristoph Hellwig1-0/+1
We really shouldn't complete AIO or DIO requests until we have finished the unwritten extent conversion and size update. This means fsync never has to pick up any ioends as all work has been completed when signalling I/O completion.

2011-08-12xfs: remove subdirectoriesChristoph Hellwig1-0/+68
Use the move from Linux 2.6 to Linux 3.x as an excuse to kill the annoying subdirectories in the XFS source code. Besides the large amount of file rename the only changes are to the Makefile, a few files including headers with the subdirectory prefix, and the binary sysctl compat code that includes a header under fs/xfs/ from kernel/.
