The writepage implementation in XFS still tries to deal with dirty but

the introduction of ->page_mkwrite these can't happen anymore, so remove the
code dealing with them.
Note that the all_bh variable which causes us to start I/O on all buffers on
the pages was controlled by the count of unmapped buffers, which also
included those not actually dirty. It's now unconditionally initialized to
0 but set to 1 for the case of small file size extensions. It probably can

Currently the xfs releasepage implementation has code to deal with converting

we always convert delayed and unwritten space when cleaning a page, or drop
the state from the buffers in block_invalidatepage. We still keep a WARN_ON

xfstests 194 first truncats a file back and then extends it again by
truncating it to a larger size. This causes discard_buffer to drop
the mapped, but not the uptodate bit and thus creates something that
xfs_page_state_convert takes for unmapped space created by mmap because
it doesn't check for the dirty bit, which also gets cleared by
discard_buffer and checked by other ->writepage implementations like
block_write_full_page. Handle this kind of buffers early, and unlike
Eric's first version of the patch simply ASSERT that the buffers is
dirty, given that the mmap write case can't happen anymore since the
introduction of ->page_mkwrite. The now dead code dealing with that
will be deleted in a follow on patch.

Follow the example of btrfs (and in slightly different form ext4) and refuse

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

We currently use block_invalidatepage() to clean up pages where I/O
fails in ->writepage(). Unfortunately, if the page has delalloc
regions on it, we fail to remove the delalloc regions when we
invalidate the page. This can result in tripping a BUG() in
xfs_get_blocks() later on if a direct IO read is done on that same
region - the delalloc extent is returned when none is supposed to be
there.
Fix this by truncating away the delalloc regions on the page before
invalidating it. Because they are delalloc, we can do this without
needing a transaction. Indeed - if we get ENOSPC errors, we have to
be able to do this truncation without a transaction as there is
no space left for block reservation (typically why we see a ENOSPC
in writeback).

The introduction of barriers to loop devices has created a new IO
order completion dependency that XFS does not handle. The loop
device implements barriers using fsync and so turns a log IO in the
XFS filesystem on the loop device into a data IO in the backing
filesystem. That is, the completion of log IOs in the loop
filesystem are now dependent on completion of data IO in the backing
filesystem.
This can cause deadlocks when a flush daemon issues a log force with
an inode locked because the IO completion of IO on the inode is
blocked by the inode lock. This in turn prevents further data IO
completion from occuring on all XFS filesystems on that CPU (due to
the shared nature of the completion queues). This then prevents the
log IO from completing because the log is waiting for data IO
completion as well.
The fix for this new completion order dependency issue is to make
the IO completion inode locking non-blocking. If the inode lock
can't be grabbed, simply requeue the IO completion back to the work
queue so that it can be processed later. This prevents the
completion queue from being blocked and allows data IO completion on
other inodes to proceed, hence avoiding completion order dependent
deadlocks.

Currently the locking in blockdev_direct_IO is a mess, we have three
different locking types and very confusing checks for some of them. The
most complicated one is DIO_OWN_LOCKING for reads, which happens to not
actually be used.
This patch gets rid of the DIO_OWN_LOCKING - as mentioned above the read
case is unused anyway, and the write side is almost identical to
DIO_NO_LOCKING. The difference is that DIO_NO_LOCKING always sets the
create argument for the get_blocks callback to zero, but we can easily
move that to the actual get_blocks callbacks. There are four users of the
DIO_NO_LOCKING mode: gfs already ignores the create argument and thus is
fine with the new version, ocfs2 only errors out if create were ever set,
and we can remove this dead code now, the block device code only ever uses
create for an error message if we are fully beyond the device which can
never happen, and last but not least XFS will need the new behavour for
writes.
Now we can replace the lock_type variable with a flags one, where no flag
means the DIO_NO_LOCKING behaviour and DIO_LOCKING is kept as the first
flag. Separate out the check for not allowing to fill holes into a
separate flag, although for now both flags always get set at the same
time.
Also revamp the documentation of the locking scheme to actually make
sense.

Convert the old xfs tracing support that could only be used with the
out of tree kdb and xfsidbg patches to use the generic event tracer.
To use it make sure CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is enabled and then enable
all xfs trace channels by:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/enable
or alternatively enable single events by just doing the same in one
event subdirectory, e.g.
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/xfs_ihold/enable
or set more complex filters, etc. In Documentation/trace/events.txt
all this is desctribed in more detail. To reads the events do a
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to
the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new
tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control
of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the
perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter,
allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various
spots in XFS. Take a look at
http://lwn.net/Articles/346470/
for some examples.
Also the btree tracing isn't included at all yet, as it will require
additional core tracing features not in mainline yet, I plan to
deliver it later.
And the really nice thing about this patch is that it actually removes
many lines of code while adding this nice functionality:

This is picking up on Felix's repost of Dave's patch to implement a
.dirty_inode method. We really need this notification because
the VFS keeps writing directly into the inode structure instead
of going through methods to update this state. In addition to
the long-known atime issue we now also have a caller in VM code
that updates c/mtime that way for shared writeable mmaps. And
I found another one that no one has noticed in practice in the FIFO
code.
So implement ->dirty_inode to set i_update_core whenever the
inode gets externally dirtied, and switch the c/mtime handling to
the same scheme we already use for atime (always picking up
the value from the Linux inode).
Note that this patch also removes the xfs_synchronize_atime call
in xfs_reclaim it was superflous as we already synchronize the time
when writing the inode via the log (xfs_inode_item_format) or the
normal buffers (xfs_iflush_int).
In addition also remove the I_CLEAR check before copying the Linux
timestamps - now that we always have the Linux inode available
we can always use the timestamps in it.
Also switch to just using file_update_time for regular reads/writes -
that will get us all optimization done to it for free and make
sure we notice early when it breaks.

Enable removing of corrupted pages through truncation
for a bunch of file systems: ext*, xfs, gfs2, ocfs2, ntfs
These should cover most server needs.
I chose the set of migration aware file systems for this
for now, assuming they have been especially audited.
But in general it should be safe for all file systems
on the data area that support read/write and truncate.
Caveat: the hardware error handler does not take i_mutex
for now before calling the truncate function. Is that ok?

The guarantees for O_SYNC are exactly the same as the ones we need to
make for an fsync call (and given that Linux O_SYNC is O_DSYNC the
equivalent is fdadatasync, but we treat both the same in XFS), except
with a range data writeout. Jan Kara has started unifying these two
path for filesystems using the generic helpers, and I've started to
look at XFS.
The actual transaction commited by xfs_fsync and xfs_write_sync_logforce
has a different transaction number, but actually is exactly the same.
We'll only use the fsync transaction going forward. One major difference
is that xfs_write_sync_logforce never issues a cache flush unless we
commit a transaction causing that as a side-effect, which is an obvious
bug in the O_SYNC handling. Second all the locking and i_update_size
vs i_update_core changes from 978b723712
never made it to xfs_write_sync_logforce, so we add them back.
To make xfs_fsync easily usable from the O_SYNC path, the filemap_fdatawait
call is moved up to xfs_file_fsync, so that we don't wait on the whole
file after we already waited for our portion in xfs_write.
We'll also use a plain call to filemap_write_and_wait_range instead
of the previous sync_page_rang which did it in two steps including
an half-hearted inode write out that doesn't help us.
Once we're done with this also remove the now useless i_update_size
tracking.

Unwritten extent conversion can recurse back into the filesystem due
to memory allocation. Memory reclaim requires I/O completions to be
processed to allow the callers to make progress. If the I/O
completion workqueue thread is doing the recursion, then we have a
deadlock situation.
Move unwritten extent completion into it's own workqueue so it
doesn't block I/O completions for normal delayed allocation or
overwrite data.

Hi.
I introduced "is_partially_uptodate" aops for XFS.
A page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not uptodate,
some buffers can be uptodate on pagesize != blocksize environment.
This aops checks that all buffers which correspond to a part of a file
that we want to read are uptodate. If so, we do not have to issue actual
read IO to HDD even if a page is not uptodate because the portion we
want to read are uptodate.
"block_is_partially_uptodate" function is already used by ext2/3/4.
With the following patch random read/write mixed workloads or random read
after random write workloads can be optimized and we can get performance
improvement.
I did a performance test using the sysbench.

The whole machinery to wait on I/O completion is related to the I/O path
and should be there instead of in xfs_vnode.c. Also give the functions

Once the Linux inode and the XFS inode are combined, we cannot rely on
just check if the linux inode exists as a method of determining if it is
valid or not. Hence we should always call xfs_mark_inode_dirty_sync()
instead as it does the correct checks to determine if the liinux inode is
in a valid state or not.

With the help from some tracing I found that we try to map extents beyond
eof when doing a direct I/O read. It appears that the way to inform the
generic direct I/O path (ie do_direct_IO()) that we have breached eof is
to return an unmapped buffer from xfs_get_blocks_direct(). This will cause
do_direct_IO() to jump to the hole handling code where is will check for
eof and then abort.
This problem was found because a direct I/O read was trying to map beyond
eof and was encountering delayed allocations. The delayed allocations
beyond eof are speculative allocations and they didn't get converted when
the direct I/O flushed the file because there was only enough space in the
current AG to convert and write out the dirty pages within eof. Note that
xfs_iomap_write_allocate() wont necessarily convert all the delayed
allocation passed to it - it will return after allocating the first extent
- so if the delayed allocation extends beyond eof then it will stay that
way.
