71a8c87fb3 [XFS] Remove xfs_iext_irec_compact_full()
Yet another bug was found in xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and while the
source of the bug was found it wasn't an easy task to track it down
because the conditions are very difficult to reproduce.

A HUGE thank-you goes to Russell Cattelan and Eric Sandeen for their
significant effort in tracking down the source of this corruption.

xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() are almost
identical - they both compact indirect extent lists by moving extents from
subsequent buffers into earlier ones. xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() only
moves extents if all of the extents in the next buffer will fit into the
empty space in the buffer before it. xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() will go
a step further and move part of the next buffer if all the extents wont
fit. It will then shift the remaining extents in the next buffer up to the
start of the buffer. The bug here was that we did not update er_extoff and
this caused extent list corruption.

It does not appear that this extra functionality gains us much. Calling
xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() instead will do a good enough job at
compacting the indirect list and will be quicker too.

For the case in xfs_iext_indirect_to_direct() the total number of extents
in the indirect list will fit into one buffer so we will never need the
extra functionality of xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() there.

Also xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() doesn't need to do a memmove() (the
buffers will never overlap) so we don't want the performance hit that can
incur.

f1ccd29551 [XFS] Fix extent list corruption in xfs_iext_irec_compact_full().
If we don't move all the records from the next buffer into the current
buffer then we need to update the er_extoff field of the next buffer as we
shift the remaining records to the start of the buffer.

9e2b2dc413 CRED: Introduce credential access wrappers
The patches that are intended to introduce copy-on-write credentials for 2.6.28
require abstraction of access to some fields of the task structure,
particularly for the case of one task accessing another's credentials where RCU
will have to be observed.

Introduced here are trivial no-op versions of the desired accessors for current
and other tasks so that other subsystems can start to be converted over more
easily.

Wrappers are introduced into a new header (linux/cred.h) for UID/GID,
EUID/EGID, SUID/SGID, FSUID/FSGID, cap_effective and current's subscribed
user_struct.  These wrappers are macros because the ordering between header
files mitigates against making them inline functions.

linux/cred.h is #included from linux/sched.h.

Further, XFS is modified such that it no longer defines and uses parameterised
versions of current_fs[ug]id(), thus getting rid of the namespace collision
otherwise incurred.

5695ef46ef [XFS] Use KM_NOFS for debug trace buffers
Use KM_NOFS to prevent recursion back into the filesystem which can cause
deadlocks.

In the case of xfs_iread() we hold the lock on the inode cluster buffer
while allocating memory for the trace buffers. If we recurse back into XFS
to flush data that may require a transaction to allocate extents which
needs log space. This can deadlock with the xfsaild thread which can't
push the tail of the log because it is trying to get the inode cluster
buffer lock.

dff35fd41f [XFS] update timestamp in xfs_ialloc manually
In xfs_ialloc we just want to set all timestamps to the current time. We
don't need to mark the inode dirty like xfs_ichgtime does, and we don't
need nor want the opimizations in xfs_ichgtime that I will introduce in
the next patch.

So just opencode the timestamp update in xfs_ialloc, and remove the new
unused XFS_ICHGTIME_ACC case in xfs_ichgtime.

41be8bed1f [XFS] sanitize xfs_initialize_vnode
Sanitize setting up the Linux indode.

Setting up the xfs_inode <-> inode link is opencoded in xfs_iget_core now
because that's the only place it needs to be done, xfs_initialize_vnode is
renamed to xfs_setup_inode and loses all superflous paramaters. The check
for I_NEW is removed because it always is true and the di_mode check moves
into xfs_iget_core because it's only needed there.

xfs_set_inodeops and xfs_revalidate_inode are merged into xfs_setup_inode
and the whole things is moved into xfs_iops.c where it belongs.

6785073ba1 [XFS] Use KM_NOFS for incore inode extent tree allocation V2
If we allow incore extent tree allocations to recurse into the
filesystem under memory pressure, new delayed allocations through
xfs_iomap_write_delay() can deadlock on themselves if memory
reclaim tries to write back dirty pages from that inode.

It will deadlock in xfs_iomap_write_allocate() trying to take the
ilock we already hold. This can also show up as complex ABBA deadlocks
when multiple threads are triggering memory reclaim when trying to
allocate extents.

The main cause of this is the fact that delayed allocation is not done in
a transaction, so KM_NOFS is not automatically added to the allocations to
prevent this recursion.

Mark all allocations done for the incore inode extent tree as KM_NOFS to
ensure they never recurse back into the filesystem.

Version 2: o KM_NOFS implies KM_SLEEP, so just use KM_NOFS

6278debdf9 [XFS] fix extent corruption in xfs_iext_irec_compact_full()
This function is used to compact the indirect extent list by moving
extents from one page to the previous to fill them up. After we move some
extents to an earlier page we need to shuffle the remaining extents to the
start of the page. The actual bug here is the second argument to memmove()
needs to index past the extents, that were copied to the previous page,
and move the remaining extents. For pages that are already full (ie
ext_avail == 0) the compaction code has no net effect so don't do it.

bad5584332 [XFS] Remove the xfs_icluster structure
Remove the xfs_icluster structure and replace with a radix tree lookup.

We don't need to keep a list of inodes in each cluster around anymore as
we can look them up quickly when we need to. The only time we need to do
this now is during inode writeback.

Factor the inode cluster writeback code out of xfs_iflush and convert it
to use radix_tree_gang_lookup() instead of walking a list of inodes built
when we first read in the inodes.

This remove 3 pointers from each xfs_inode structure and the xfs_icluster
structure per inode cluster. Hence we reduce the cache footprint of the
xfs_inodes by between 5-10% depending on cluster sparseness.

To be truly efficient we need a radix_tree_gang_lookup_range() call to
stop searching once we are past the end of the cluster instead of trying
to find a full cluster's worth of inodes.

Before (ia64):

$ cat /sys/slab/xfs_inode/object_size 536

a3f74ffb6d [XFS] Don't block pdflush when writing back inodes
When pdflush is writing back inodes, it can get stuck on inode cluster
buffers that are currently under I/O. This occurs when we write data to
multiple inodes in the same inode cluster at the same time.

Effectively, delayed allocation marks the inode dirty during the data
writeback. Hence if the inode cluster was flushed during the writeback of
the first inode, the writeback of the second inode will block waiting for
the inode cluster write to complete before writing it again for the newly
dirtied inode.

Basically, we want to avoid this from happening so we don't block pdflush
and slow down all of writeback. Hence we introduce a non-blocking async
inode flush flag that pdflush uses. If this flag is set, we use
non-blocking operations (e.g. try locks) whereever we can to avoid
blocking or extra I/O being issued.

that embedds and xfs_icdinode_core and XFS_DFORK_* operates on an

swapping while the other doesn't. Instead of having the current mess with
the CFORK macros that have byteswapping and non-byteswapping version
(which are inconsistantly named while we're at it) just define each family
of the macros to stand by itself and simplify the whole matter.

A few direct references to the CFORK variants were cleaned up to use IFORK
or DFORK to make this possible.

CONFIG_XFS_RT is off. This should be safe because mount checks in
xfs_rtmount_init:

so if we get mounted w/o CONFIG_XFS_RT, no realtime inodes should be
encountered after that.

Defining XFS_IS_REALTIME_INODE to 0 saves a bit of stack space,
presumeably gcc can optimize around the various "if (0)" type checks:

xfs_alloc_file_space -8 xfs_bmap_adjacent -16 xfs_bmapi -8
xfs_bmap_rtalloc -16 xfs_bunmapi -28 xfs_free_file_space -64 xfs_imap +8
<-- ? hmm. xfs_iomap_write_direct -12 xfs_qm_dqusage_adjust -4
xfs_qm_vop_chown_reserve -4

5d51eff453 [XFS] Fix inode allocation latency
The log force added in xfs_iget_core() has been a performance issue since
it was introduced for tight loops that allocate then unlink a single file.
under heavy writeback, this can introduce unnecessary latency due tothe
log I/o getting stuck behind bulk data writes.

Fix this latency problem by avoinding the need for the log force by moving
the place we mark linux inode dirty to the transaction commit rather than
on transaction completion.

This also closes a potential hole in the sync code where a linux inode is
not dirty between the time it is modified and the time the log buffer has
been written to disk.

c319b58b13 [XFS] Make xfs_bulkstat() to report unlinked but referenced inodes
We need xfs_bulkstat() to report inode stat for inodes with link count
zero but reference count non zero.

The fix here:

http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2007-09/msg00266.html

changed this behavior and made xfs_bulkstat() to filter all unlinked
inodes including those that are not destroyed yet but held by reference.

The attached patch returns back to the original behavior by marking the
on-disk inode buffer "dirty" when di_mode is cleared (at that time both
inode link and reference counter are zero).

xfs_iocore_t is a structure embedded in xfs_inode. Except for one field it
just duplicates fields already in xfs_inode, and there is nothing this
abstraction buys us on XFS/Linux. This patch removes it and shrinks source

c734c79bc3 [XFS] Don't wait for pending I/Os when purging blocks beyond eof.
On last close of a file we purge blocks beyond eof. The same code is used
when we truncate the file size down. In this case we need to wait for any
pending I/Os for dirty pages beyond the new eof. For the last close case
we are not changing the file size and therefore do not need to wait for
any I/Os to complete. This fixes a performance bottleneck where writes
into the page cache and cache flushes can become mutually exclusive.

859d718279 [XFS] get_bulkall() could return incorrect inode state
In the following scenario xfs_bulkstat() returns incorrect stale inode
state:

1. File_A is created and its inode synced to disk. 2. File_A is unlinked
and doesn't exist anymore. 3. Filesystem sync is invoked. 4. File_B is
created. File_B happens to reclaim File_A's inode. 5. xfs_bulkstat() is
called and detects File_B but reports the

incorrect File_A inode state.

Explanation for the incorrect inode state is that inodes are not
immediately synced on file create for performance reasons. This leaves the
on-disk inode buffer uninitialized (or with old state from a previous
generation inode) and this is what xfs_bulkstat() would report.

The patch marks the on-disk inode buffer "dirty" on unlink. When the inode
is reclaimed (by a new file create), xfs_bulkstat() would filter this
inode by the "dirty" mark. Once the inode is flushed to disk, the on-disk
buffer "dirty" mark is automatically removed and a following
xfs_bulkstat() would return the correct inode state.

Marking the on-disk inode buffer "dirty" on unlink is achieved by setting
the on-disk di_nlink field to 0. Note that the in-core di_nlink has
already been set to 0 and a corresponding transaction logged by
xfs_droplink(). This is an exception from the rule that any on-disk inode
buffer changes has to be followed by a disk write (inode flush).
Synchronizing the in-core to on-disk di_nlink values in advance (before
the actual inode flush to disk) should be fine in this case because the
inode is already unlinked and it would never change its di_nlink again for
this inode generation.

All flags are added to xfs_mount's m_flag instead. Note that the 32bit
inode flag was duplicated in both of them, but only cleared in the mount
when it was not nessecary due to the filesystem beeing small enough. Two
flags are still required here - one to indicate the mount option setting,
and one to indicate if it applies or not.

da353b0d64 [XFS] Radix tree based inode caching
One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing it's incore
inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default hash sizes chosen can
only ever be a tradeoff between memory consumption and the maximum
realistic size of the cache.

As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a filesystem
needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize mount option to
allow decent scalability with inode cache operations.

A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is based
on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain conditions (sparse
cluster cache population) this can become a limitation long before the
inode hash is causing issues.

The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash and
replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability limitations of the
hashes. It also reduces the size of the inodes by 3 pointers....

347d1c0195 [XFS] dinode endianess annotations
Biggest bit is duplicating the dinode structure so we have one annotated for
native endianess and one for disk endianess. The other significant change
is that xfs_xlate_dinode_core is split into one helper per direction to
allow for proper annotations, everything else is trivial.

As a sidenode splitting out the incore dinode means we can move it into
xfs_inode.h in a later patch and severely improving on the include hell in
xfs.
