Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"There's a lot in this cycle.
Starting with bug fixes: To avoid livelocks between the logging code
and the quota code, we've disabled the ability of quotaoff to turn off
quota accounting. (Admins can still disable quota enforcement, but
truly turning off accounting requires a remount.) We've tried to do
this in a careful enough way that there shouldn't be any user visible
effects aside from quotaoff no longer randomly hanging the system.
We've also fixed some bugs in runtime log behavior that could trip up
log recovery if (otherwise unrelated) transactions manage to start and
commit concurrently; some bugs in the GETFSMAP ioctl where we would
incorrectly restrict the range of records output if the two xfs
devices are of different sizes; a bug that resulted in fallocate
funshare failing unnecessarily; and broken behavior in the xfs inode
cache when DONTCACHE is in play.
As for new features: we now batch inode inactivations in percpu
background threads, which sharply decreases frontend thread wait time
when performing file deletions and should improve overall directory
tree deletion times. This eliminates both the problem where closing an
unlinked file (especially on a frozen fs) can stall for a long time,
and should also ease complaints about direct reclaim bogging down on
unlinked file cleanup.
Starting with this release, we've enabled pipelining of the XFS log.
On workloads with high rates of metadata updates to different shards
of the filesystem, multiple threads can be used to format committed
log updates into log checkpoints.
Lastly, with this release, two new features have graduated to
supported status: inode btree counters (for faster mounts), and
support for dates beyond Y2038. Expect these to be enabled by default
in a future release of xfsprogs.
Summary:
- Fix a potential log livelock on busy filesystems when there's so
much work going on that we can't finish a quotaoff before filling
up the log by removing the ability to disable quota accounting.
- Introduce the ability to use per-CPU data structures in XFS so that
we can do a better job of maintaining CPU locality for certain
operations.
- Defer inode inactivation work to per-CPU lists, which will help us
batch that processing. Deletions of large sparse files will
*appear* to run faster, but all that means is that we've moved the
work to the backend.
- Drop the EXPERIMENTAL warnings from the y2038+ support and the
inode btree counters, since it's been nearly a year and no
complaints have come in.
- Remove more of our bespoke kmem* variants in favor of using the
standard Linux calls.
- Prepare for the addition of log incompat features in upcoming
cycles by actually adding code to support this.
- Small cleanups of the xattr code in preparation for landing support
for full logging of extended attribute updates in a future cycle.
- Replace the various log shutdown state and flag code all over xfs
with a single atomic bit flag.
- Fix a serious log recovery bug where log item replay can be skipped
based on the start lsn of a transaction even though the transaction
commit lsn is the key data point for that by enforcing start lsns
to appear in the log in the same order as commit lsns.
- Enable pipelining in the code that pushes log items to disk.
- Drop ->writepage.
- Fix some bugs in GETFSMAP where the last fsmap record reported for
a device could extend beyond the end of the device, and a separate
bug where query keys for one device could be applied to another.
- Don't let GETFSMAP query functions edit their input parameters.
- Small cleanups to the scrub code's handling of perag structures.
- Small cleanups to the incore inode tree walk code.
- Constify btree function parameters that aren't changed, so that
there will never again be confusion about range query functions
changing their input parameters.
- Standardize the format and names of tracepoint data attributes.
- Clean up all the mount state and feature flags to use wrapped
bitset functions instead of inconsistently open-coded flag checks.
- Fix some confusion between xfs_buf hash table key variable vs.
block number.
- Fix a mis-interaction with iomap where we reported shared delalloc
cow fork extents to iomap, which would cause the iomap unshare
operation to return IO errors unnecessarily.
- Fix DONTCACHE behavior"

Move inode inactivation to background work contexts so that it no
longer runs in the context that releases the final reference to an
inode. This will allow process work that ends up blocking on
inactivation to continue doing work while the filesytem processes
the inactivation in the background.
A typical demonstration of this is unlinking an inode with lots of
extents. The extents are removed during inactivation, so this blocks
the process that unlinked the inode from the directory structure. By
moving the inactivation to the background process, the userspace
applicaiton can keep working (e.g. unlinking the next inode in the
directory) while the inactivation work on the previous inode is
done by a different CPU.
The implementation of the queue is relatively simple. We use a
per-cpu lockless linked list (llist) to queue inodes for
inactivation without requiring serialisation mechanisms, and a work
item to allow the queue to be processed by a CPU bound worker
thread. We also keep a count of the queue depth so that we can
trigger work after a number of deferred inactivations have been
queued.
The use of a bound workqueue with a single work depth allows the
workqueue to run one work item per CPU. We queue the work item on
the CPU we are currently running on, and so this essentially gives
us affine per-cpu worker threads for the per-cpu queues. THis
maintains the effective CPU affinity that occurs within XFS at the
AG level due to all objects in a directory being local to an AG.
Hence inactivation work tends to run on the same CPU that last
accessed all the objects that inactivation accesses and this
maintains hot CPU caches for unlink workloads.
A depth of 32 inodes was chosen to match the number of inodes in an
inode cluster buffer. This hopefully allows sequential
allocation/unlink behaviours to defering inactivation of all the
inodes in a single cluster buffer at a time, further helping
maintain hot CPU and buffer cache accesses while running
inactivations.
A hard per-cpu queue throttle of 256 inode has been set to avoid
runaway queuing when inodes that take a long to time inactivate are
being processed. For example, when unlinking inodes with large
numbers of extents that can take a lot of processing to free.

If we don't need to inactivate an inode, we can detach the dquots and
move on to reclamation. This isn't strictly required here; it's a
preparation patch for deferred inactivation per reviewer request[1] to
move the creation of xfs_inode_needs_inactivation into a separate
change. Eventually this !need_inactive chunk will turn into the code
path for inodes that skip xfs_inactive and go straight to memory
reclaim.

This is just a simple wrapper around the per-ag inode allocation
that doesn't need to exist. The internal mechanism to select and
allocate within an AG does not need to be exposed outside
xfs_ialloc.c, and it being exposed simply makes it harder to follow
the code and simplify it.
This is simplified by internalising xf_dialloc_select_ag() and
xfs_dialloc_ag() into a single xfs_dialloc() function and then
xfs_dir_ialloc() can go away.

The legacy DMAPI fields were never set by upstream Linux XFS, and have no
way to be read using the kernel APIs. So instead of bloating the in-core
inode for them just copy them from the on-disk inode into the log when
logging the inode. The only caveat is that we need to make sure to zero
the fields for newly read or deleted inodes, which is solved using a new
flag in the inode.

When we allocate a new inode, we often need to add an attribute to
the inode as part of the create. This can happen as a result of
needing to add default ACLs or security labels before the inode is
made visible to userspace.
This is highly inefficient right now. We do the create transaction
to allocate the inode, then we do an "add attr fork" transaction to
modify the just created empty inode to set the inode fork offset to
allow attributes to be stored, then we go and do the attribute
creation.
This means 3 transactions instead of 1 to allocate an inode, and
this greatly increases the load on the CIL commit code, resulting in
excessive contention on the CIL spin locks and performance
degradation:
18.99% [kernel] [k] __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
3.57% [kernel] [k] do_raw_spin_lock
2.51% [kernel] [k] __raw_callee_save___pv_queued_spin_unlock
2.48% [kernel] [k] memcpy
2.34% [kernel] [k] xfs_log_commit_cil
The typical profile resulting from running fsmark on a selinux enabled
filesytem is adds this overhead to the create path:
- 15.30% xfs_init_security
- 15.23% security_inode_init_security
- 13.05% xfs_initxattrs

- 0.82% selinux_determine_inode_label
- 0.77% security_transition_sid
0.70% security_compute_sid.part.0
And fsmark creation rate performance drops by ~25%. The key point to
note here is that half the additional overhead comes from adding the
attribute fork to the newly created inode. That's crazy, considering
we can do this same thing at inode create time with a couple of
lines of code and no extra overhead.
So, if we know we are going to add an attribute immediately after
creating the inode, let's just initialise the attribute fork inside
the create transaction and chop that whole chunk of code out of
the create fast path. This completely removes the performance
drop caused by enabling SELinux, and the profile looks like:
- 8.99% xfs_init_security
- 9.00% security_inode_init_security
- 6.43% xfs_initxattrs
- 6.37% xfs_attr_set
- 5.45% xfs_attr_set_args
- 5.42% xfs_attr_set_shortform.constprop.0
- 4.51% xfs_trans_commit
- 4.54% __xfs_trans_commit
- 4.59% xfs_log_commit_cil
- 2.67% _raw_spin_lock
- 3.28% do_raw_spin_lock
3.08% __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
0.66% xfs_inode_item_format
- 0.90% xfs_attr_try_sf_addname
- 0.60% xfs_trans_alloc
- 2.35% selinux_inode_init_security
- 1.25% security_sid_to_context_force

__pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
- 0.84% selinux_determine_inode_label
- 0.83% security_transition_sid
0.86% security_compute_sid.part.0
Which indicates the XFS overhead of creating the selinux xattr has
been halved. This doesn't fix the CIL lock contention problem, just
means it's not a limiting factor for this workload. Lock contention
in the security subsystems is going to be an issue soon, though...

Files containing metadata (quota records, rt bitmap and summary info)
are fully managed by the filesystem, which means that all resource
cleanup must be explicit, not automatic. This means that they should
never be subjected automatic to post-eof truncation, nor should they be
freed automatically even if the link count drops to zero.
In other words, xfs_inactive() should leave these files alone. Add the
necessary predicate functions to make this happen. This adds a second
layer of prevention for the kinds of fs corruption that was fixed by
commit f4c32e87de7d. If we ever decide to support removing metadata
files, we should make all those metadata updates explicit.
Rearrange the order of #includes to fix compiler errors, since

With the recent rework of the inode cluster flushing, we no longer
ever wait on the the inode flush "lock". It was never a lock in the
first place, just a completion to allow callers to wait for inode IO
to complete. We now never wait for flush completion as all inode
flushing is non-blocking. Hence we can get rid of all the iflock
infrastructure and instead just set and check a state flag.

Now that we have all the dirty inodes attached to the cluster
buffer, we don't actually have to do radix tree lookups to find
them. Sure, the radix tree is efficient, but walking a linked list
of just the dirty inodes attached to the buffer is much better.
We are also no longer dependent on having a locked inode passed into
the function to determine where to start the lookup. This means we
can drop it from the function call and treat all inodes the same.
We also make xfs_iflush_cluster skip inodes marked with
XFS_IRECLAIM. This we avoid races with inodes that reclaim is
actively referencing or are being re-initialised by inode lookup. If
they are actually dirty, they'll get written by a future cluster
flush....
We also add a shutdown check after obtaining the flush lock so that
we catch inodes that are dirty in memory and may have inconsistent
state due to the shutdown in progress. We abort these inodes
directly and so they remove themselves directly from the buffer list
and the AIL rather than having to wait for the buffer to be failed
and callbacks run to be processed correctly.

Now we have a cached buffer on inode log items, we don't need
to do buffer lookups when flushing inodes anymore - all we need
to do is lock the buffer and we are ready to go.
This largely gets rid of the need for xfs_iflush(), which is
essentially just a mechanism to look up the buffer and flush the
inode to it. Instead, we can just call xfs_iflush_cluster() with a
few modifications to ensure it also flushes the inode we already
hold locked.
This allows the AIL inode item pushing to be almost entirely
non-blocking in XFS - we won't block unless memory allocation
for the cluster inode lookup blocks or the block device queues are
full.
Writeback during inode reclaim becomes a little more complex because
we now have to lock the buffer ourselves, but otherwise this change
is largely a functional no-op that removes a whole lot of code.

Pull DAX updates part two from Darrick Wong:
"This time around, we're hoisting the DONTCACHE flag from XFS into the
VFS so that we can make the incore DAX mode changes become effective
sooner.
We can't change the file data access mode on a live inode because we
don't have a safe way to change the file ops pointers. The incore
state change becomes effective at inode loading time, which can happen
if the inode is evicted. Therefore, we're making it so that
filesystems can ask the VFS to evict the inode as soon as the last
holder drops.
The per-fs changes to make this call this will be in subsequent pull
requests from Ted and myself.
Summary:

struct xfs_inode. Switch to a single counter in the xfs_ifork structure
where it uses up padding at the end of the structure. This simplifies
various bits of code that just wants the number of extents counter and
can now directly dereference it.

Call the data/attr local fork verifiers as soon as we are ready for them.
This keeps them close to the code setting up the forks, and avoids a
few branches later on. Also open code xfs_inode_verify_forks in the

DAX effective mode (S_DAX) changes requires inode eviction.
XFS has an advisory flag (XFS_IDONTCACHE) to prevent caching of the
inode if no other additional references are taken. We lift this flag to
the VFS layer and change the behavior slightly by allowing the flag to
remain even if multiple references are taken.
This will expedite the eviction of inodes to change S_DAX.

The functionality in xfs_diflags_to_linux() and xfs_diflags_to_iflags() are
nearly identical. The only difference is that *_to_linux() is called after
inode setup and disallows changing the DAX flag.
Combining them can be done with a flag which indicates if this is the initial
setup to allow the DAX flag to be properly set only at init time.
So remove xfs_diflags_to_linux() and call the modified xfs_diflags_to_iflags()
directly.
While we are here simplify xfs_diflags_to_iflags() to take struct xfs_inode and
use xfs_ip2xflags() to ensure future diflags are included correctly.

Widen the incore inode's i_delayed_blks counter to be a 64-bit integer.
This is necessary to fix an integer overflow problem that can be
reproduced easily now that we use the counter to track blocks that are
assigned to the inode in memory but not on disk. This includes actual
delalloc reservations as well as real extents in the COW fork that
are waiting to be remapped into the data fork.
These 'delayed mapping' blocks can easily exceed 2^32 blocks if one
creates a very large sparse file of size approximately 2^33 bytes with
one byte written every 2^23 bytes, sets a very large COW extent size
hint of 2^23 blocks, reflinks the first file into a second file, and
then writes a single byte every 2^23 blocks in the original file.
When this happens, we'll try to create approximately 1024 2^23 extent
reservations in the COW fork, which will overflow the counter and cause
problems.
Note that on x64 we end up filling a 4-byte gap in the structure so this
doesn't increase the incore size.

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.

Use a rhashtable to cache the unlinked list incore. This should speed
up unlinked processing considerably when there are a lot of inodes on
the unlinked list because iunlink_remove no longer has to traverse an
entire bucket list to find which inode points to the one being removed.
The incore list structure records "X.next_unlinked = Y" relations, with
the rhashtable using Y to index the records. This makes finding the
inode X that points to a inode Y very quick. If our cache fails to find
anything we can always fall back on the old method.
FWIW this drastically reduces the amount of time it takes to remove
inodes from the unlinked list. I wrote a program to open a lot of
O_TMPFILE files and then close them in the same order, which takes
a very long time if we have to traverse the unlinked lists. With the
ptach, I see:

Opened 193531 files in 6.33s.
Closed 193531 files in 5.86s

struct xfs_defer_ops has now been reduced to a single list_head. The
external dfops mechanism is unused and thus everywhere a (permanent)
transaction is accessible the associated dfops structure is as well.
Remove the xfs_defer_ops structure and fold the list_head into the
transaction. Also remove the last remnant of external dfops in
xfs_trans_dup().

We have a few places that already check if an inode has actual data in
the COW fork to avoid work on reflink inodes that do not actually have
outstanding COW blocks. There are a few more places that can avoid
working if doing the same check, so add a documented helper for this
condition and use it in all places where it makes sense.
