The inode btree verifier code is shared between the inode btree and
free inode btree because the underlying metadata formats are
essentially equivalent. A side effect of this is that the verifier
cannot determine whether a particular btree block should have an
inobt or finobt magic value.
This logic allows an unfortunate xfs_repair bug to escape detection
where certain level > 0 nodes of the finobt are stamped with inobt
magic by xfs_repair finobt reconstruction. This is fortunately not a
severe problem since the inode btree magic values do not contribute
to any changes in kernel behavior, but we do need a means to detect
and prevent this problem in the future.
Add a field to xfs_buf_ops to store the v4 and v5 superblock magic
values expected by a particular verifier. Add a helper to check an
on-disk magic value against the value expected by the verifier. Call
the helper from the shared [f]inobt verifier code for magic value
verification. This ensures that the inode btree blocks each have the
appropriate magic value based on specific tree type and superblock
version.

If a caller supplies buffer ops when trying to read a buffer and the

Note that current XFS code is careful to assign buffer ops after a

For the new growfs work, we want to ensure that we serialise
secondary superblock updates with other operations (e.g. scrub)

To solve this, introduce a "oneshot" buffer which will be marshalled
through the cache but then released once the last current reference
goes away. If the buffer is already cached, then we ignore the
"one-shot" behaviour and leave the buffer in the state it was prior

By splitting the b_fspriv field into two different fields (b_log_item
and b_li_list). It's possible to get rid of an old ABI workaround, by
using the new b_log_item field to store xfs_buf_log_item separated from
the log items attached to the buffer, which will be linked in the new
b_li_list field.
This way, there is no more need to reorder the log items list to place
the buf_log_item at the beginning of the list, simplifying a bit the
logic to handle buffer IO.
This also opens the possibility to change buffer's log items list into a
proper list_head.
b_log_item field is still defined as a void *, because it is still used
by the log buffers to store xlog_in_core structures, and there is no

XFS uses a fixed reference count for certain types of buffers in the
internal LRU cache. These reference counts dictate how aggressively
certain buffers are reclaimed vs. others. While the reference counts
implements priority across different buffer types, all buffers
(other than uncached buffers) are typically cached for at least one
reclaim cycle.
We've had at least one bug recently that has been hidden by a
released buffer sitting around in the LRU. Users hitting the problem
were able to reproduce under enough memory pressure to cause
aggressive reclaim in a particular window of time.
To support future xfstests cases, add an error injection tag to
hardcode the buffer reference count to zero. When enabled, this
bypasses caching of associated buffers and facilitates test cases
that depend on this behavior.

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.

We've had user reports of unmount hangs in xfs_wait_buftarg() that
analysis shows is due to btp->bt_io_count == -1. bt_io_count
represents the count of in-flight asynchronous buffers and thus
should always be >= 0. xfs_wait_buftarg() waits for this value to
stabilize to zero in order to ensure that all untracked (with
respect to the lru) buffers have completed I/O processing before
unmount proceeds to tear down in-core data structures.
The value of -1 implies an I/O accounting decrement race. Indeed,
the fact that xfs_buf_ioacct_dec() is called from xfs_buf_rele()
(where the buffer lock is no longer held) means that bp->b_flags can
be updated from an unsafe context. While a user-level reproducer is
currently not available, some intrusive hacks to run racing buffer
lookups/ioacct/releases from multiple threads was used to
successfully manufacture this problem.
Existing callers do not expect to acquire the buffer lock from
xfs_buf_rele(). Therefore, we can not safely update ->b_flags from
this context. It turns out that we already have separate buffer
state bits and associated serialization for dealing with buffer LRU
state in the form of ->b_state and ->b_lock. Therefore, replace the
_XBF_IN_FLIGHT flag with a ->b_state variant, update the I/O
accounting wrappers appropriately and make sure they are used with
the correct locking. This ensures that buffer in-flight state can be
modified at buffer release time without racing with modifications
from a buffer lock holder.

On filesystems with a lot of metadata and in metadata intensive workloads
xfs_buf_find() is showing up at the top of the CPU cycles trace. Most of
the CPU time is spent on CPU cache misses while traversing the rbtree.
As the buffer cache does not need any kind of ordering, but fast lookups
a hashtable is the natural data structure to use. The rhashtable
infrastructure provides a self-scaling hashtable implementation and
allows lookups to proceed while the table is going through a resize
operation.
This reduces the CPU-time spent for the lookups to 1/3 even for small
filesystems with a relatively small number of cached buffers, with
possibly much larger gains on higher loaded filesystems.

Newly allocated XFS metadata buffers are added to the LRU once the hold
count is released, which typically occurs after I/O completion. There is
no other mechanism at current that tracks the existence or I/O state of
a new buffer. Further, readahead I/O tends to be submitted
asynchronously by nature, which means the I/O can remain in flight and
actually complete long after the calling context is gone. This means
that file descriptors or any other holds on the filesystem can be
released, allowing the filesystem to be unmounted while I/O is still in
flight. When I/O completion occurs, core data structures may have been
freed, causing completion to run into invalid memory accesses and likely
to panic.
This problem is reproduced on XFS via directory readahead. A filesystem
is mounted, a directory is opened/closed and the filesystem immediately
unmounted. The open/close cycle triggers a directory readahead that if
delayed long enough, runs buffer I/O completion after the unmount has
completed.
To address this problem, add a mechanism to track all in-flight,
asynchronous buffers using per-cpu counters in the buftarg. The buffer
is accounted on the first I/O submission after the current reference is
acquired and unaccounted once the buffer is returned to the LRU or
freed. Update xfs_wait_buftarg() to wait on all in-flight I/O before
walking the LRU list. Once in-flight I/O has completed and the workqueue
has drained, all new buffers should have been released onto the LRU.

XFS traditionally sends all buffer I/O completion work to a single

Currently the report of a bio error from completion
immediately marks the buffer with an error. The issue is that this
is racy w.r.t. synchronous IO - the submitter can see b_error being
set before the IO is complete, and hence we cannot differentiate
between submission failures and completion failures.
Add an internal b_io_error field protected by the b_lock to catch IO
completion errors, and only propagate that to the buffer during
final IO completion handling. Hence we can tell in xfs_buf_iorequest
if we've had a submission failure bey checking bp->b_error before
dropping our b_io_remaining reference - that reference will prevent
b_io_error values from being propagated to b_error in the event that
completion races with submission.

We do some work in xfs_buf_ioend, and some work in
xfs_buf_iodone_work, but much of that functionality is the same.
This work can all be done in a single function, leaving
xfs_buf_iodone just a wrapper to determine if we should execute it
by workqueue or directly. hence rename xfs_buf_iodone_work to
xfs_buf_ioend(), and add a new xfs_buf_ioend_async() for places that
need async processing.

Convert all the errors the core XFs code to negative error signs
like the rest of the kernel and remove all the sign conversion we
do in the interface layers.
Errors for conversion (and comparison) found via searches like:
$ git grep " E" fs/xfs
$ git grep "return E" fs/xfs
$ git grep " E[A-Z].*;$" fs/xfs
Negation points found via searches like:
$ git grep "= -[a-z,A-Z]" fs/xfs
$ git grep "return -[a-z,A-D,F-Z]" fs/xfs
$ git grep " -[a-z].*;" fs/xfs

Most of the callers are just calling ASSERT(!xfs_buf_geterror())
which means they are checking for bp->b_error == 0. If bp is null in
this case, we will assert fail, and hence it's no different in
result to oopsing because of a null bp. In some cases, errors have
already been checked for or the function returning the buffer can't
return a buffer with an error, so it's just a redundant assert.
Either way, the assert can either be removed.
The other two non-assert callers can just test for a buffer and
error properly.

Many/most callers of xfs_update_cksum() pass bp->b_addr and
BBTOB(bp->b_length) as the first 2 args. Add a helper
which can just accept the bp and the crc offset, and work
it out on its own, for brevity.

Some time ago, mkfs.xfs started picking the storage physical
sector size as the default filesystem "sector size" in order
to avoid RMW costs incurred by doing IOs at logical sector
size alignments.
However, this means that for a filesystem made with i.e.
a 4k sector size on an "advanced format" 4k/512 disk,
512-byte direct IOs are no longer allowed. This means
that XFS has essentially turned this AF drive into a hard
4K device, from the filesystem on up.
XFS's mkfs-specified "sector size" is really just controlling
the minimum size & alignment of filesystem metadata.
There is no real need to tightly couple XFS's minimal
metadata size to the minimum allowed direct IO size;
XFS can continue doing metadata in optimal sizes, but
still allow smaller DIOs for apps which issue them,
for whatever reason.
This patch adds a new field to the xfs_buftarg, so that
we now track 2 sizes:
1) The metadata sector size, which is the minimum unit and
alignment of IO which will be performed by metadata operations.
2) The device logical sector size
The first is used internally by the file system for metadata
alignment and IOs.
The second is used for the minimum allowed direct IO alignment.
This has passed xfstests on filesystems made with 4k sectors,
including when run under the patch I sent to ignore
XFS_IOC_DIOINFO, and issue 512 DIOs anyway. I also directly
tested end of block behavior on preallocated, sparse, and
existing files when we do a 512 IO into a 4k file on a
4k-sector filesystem, to be sure there were no unexpected
behaviors.
