We sometimes have to allocate new extent states when clearing or setting
new bits in an extent io tree. Generally we preallocate this before
taking the tree spin lock, but we can use this preallocated extent state
sometimes and then need to try to do a GFP_ATOMIC allocation under the
lock.
Unfortunately sometimes this fails, and then we hit the BUG_ON() and
bring the box down. This happens roughly 20 times a week in our fleet.
However the vast majority of callers use GFP_NOFS, which means that if
this GFP_ATOMIC allocation fails, we could simply drop the spin lock, go
back and allocate a new extent state with our given gfp mask, and begin
again from where we left off.
For the remaining callers that do not use GFP_NOFS, they are generally
using GFP_NOWAIT, which still allows for some reclaim. So allow these
allocations to attempt to happen outside of the spin lock so we don't
need to rely on GFP_ATOMIC allocations.
This in essence creates an infinite loop for anything that isn't
GFP_NOFS. To address this we may want to migrate to using mempools for
extent states so that we will always have emergency reserves in order to
make our allocations.

fleet that we can fail these allocations, and then often trip a
BUG_ON(!allocation), which isn't an ideal outcome. Begin to address
this by simply not using GFP_ATOMIC, which will allow us to do things
like actually allocate a extent state when doing
set_extent_bits(UPTODATE) in the endio handler.

[BACKGROUND]
When committing a transaction, we will update block group items for all
dirty block groups.
But in fact, dirty block groups don't always need to update their block
group items.
It's pretty common to have a metadata block group which experienced
several COW operations, but still have the same amount of used bytes.
In that case, we may unnecessarily COW a tree block doing nothing.
[ENHANCEMENT]
This patch will introduce btrfs_block_group::commit_used member to
remember the last used bytes, and use that new member to skip
unnecessary block group item update.
This would be more common for large filesystems, where metadata block
group can be as large as 1GiB, containing at most 64K metadata items.
In that case, if COW added and then deleted one metadata item near the
end of the block group, then it's completely possible we don't need to
touch the block group item at all.
[BENCHMARK]
The change itself can have quite a high chance (20~80%) to skip block
group item updates in lot of workloads.
As a result, it would result shorter time spent on
btrfs_write_dirty_block_groups(), and overall reduce the execution time
of the critical section of btrfs_commit_transaction().
Here comes a fio command, which will do random writes in 4K block size,
causing a very heavy metadata updates.
fio --filename=$mnt/file --size=512M --rw=randwrite --direct=1 --bs=4k \
--ioengine=libaio --iodepth=64 --runtime=300 --numjobs=4 \
--name=random_write --fallocate=none --time_based --fsync_on_close=1
The file size (512M) and number of threads (4) means 2GiB file size in
total, but during the full 300s run time, my dedicated SATA SSD is able
to write around 20~25GiB, which is over 10 times the file size.
Thus after we fill the initial 2G, we should not cause much block group
item updates.
Please note, the fio numbers by themselves don't have much change, but
if we look deeper, there is some reduced execution time, especially for
the critical section of btrfs_commit_transaction().
I added extra trace_printk() to measure the following per-transaction
execution time:
- Critical section of btrfs_commit_transaction()
By re-using the existing update_commit_stats() function, which
has already calculated the interval correctly.
- The while() loop for btrfs_write_dirty_block_groups()
Although this includes the execution time of btrfs_run_delayed_refs(),
it should still be representative overall.
Both result involves transid 7~30, the same amount of transaction
committed.
The result looks like this:
| Before | After | Diff
----------------------+-------------------+----------------+--------
Transaction interval | 229247198.5 | 215016933.6 | -6.2%
Block group interval | 23133.33333 | 18970.83333 | -18.0%
The change in block group item updates is more obvious, as skipped block
group item updates also mean less delayed refs.
And the overall execution time for that block group update loop is
pretty small, thus we can assume the extent tree is already mostly
cached. If we can skip an uncached tree block, it would cause more
obvious change.
Unfortunately the overall reduction in commit transaction critical
section is much smaller, as the block group item updates loop is not
really the major part, at least not for the above fio script.
But still we have a observable reduction in the critical section.

[BACKGROUND]
In theory init_btrfs_fs() and exit_btrfs_fs() should match their
sequence, thus normally they should look like this:
init_btrfs_fs() | exit_btrfs_fs()
----------------------+------------------------
init_A(); |
init_B(); |
init_C(); |
| exit_C();
| exit_B();
| exit_A();
So is for the error path of init_btrfs_fs().
But it's not the case, some exit functions don't match their init
functions sequence in init_btrfs_fs().
Furthermore in init_btrfs_fs(), we need to have a new error label for
each new init function we added. This is not really expandable,
especially recently we may add several new functions to init_btrfs_fs().
[ENHANCEMENT]
The patch will introduce the following things to enhance the situation:
- struct init_sequence
Just a wrapper of init and exit function pointers.
The init function must use int type as return value, thus some init
functions need to be updated to return 0.
The exit function can be NULL, as there are some init sequence just
outputting a message.
- struct mod_init_seq[] array
This is a const array, recording all the initialization we need to do
in init_btrfs_fs(), and the order follows the old init_btrfs_fs().
- bool mod_init_result[] array
This is a bool array, recording if we have initialized one entry in
mod_init_seq[].
The reason to split mod_init_seq[] and mod_init_result[] is to avoid
section mismatch in reference.
All init function are in .init.text, but if mod_init_seq[] records
the @initialized member it can no longer be const, thus will be put
into .data section, and cause modpost warning.
For init_btrfs_fs() we just call all init functions in their order in
mod_init_seq[] array, and after each call, setting corresponding
mod_init_result[] to true.
For exit_btrfs_fs() and error handling path of init_btrfs_fs(), we just
iterate mod_init_seq[] in reverse order, and skip all uninitialized
entry.
With this patch, init_btrfs_fs()/exit_btrfs_fs() will be much easier to
expand and will always follow the strict order.

I have observed the following case play out and lead to unnecessary
relocations:
1. write a file across multiple block groups
2. delete the file
3. several block groups fall below the reclaim threshold
4. reclaim the first, moving extents into the others
5. reclaim the others which are now actually very full, leading to poor
reclaim behavior with lots of writing, allocating new block groups,
etc.
I believe the risk of missing some reasonable reclaims is worth it
when traded off against the savings of avoiding overfull reclaims.
Going forward, it could be interesting to make the check more advanced
(zoned aware, fragmentation aware, etc...) so that it can be a really
strong signal both at extent delete and reclaim time.

As we delete extents from a block group, at some deletion we cross below
the reclaim threshold. It is possible we are still in the middle of
deleting more extents and might soon hit 0. If the block group is empty
by the time the reclaim worker runs, we will still relocate it.
This works just fine, as relocating an empty block group ultimately
results in properly deleting it. However, we have more direct ways of
removing empty block groups in the cleaner thread. Those are either
async discard or the unused_bgs list. In fact, when we decide whether to
relocate a block group during extent deletion, we do check for emptiness
and prefer the discard/unused_bgs mechanisms when possible.
Not using relocation for this case reduces some modest overhead from
empty bg relocation:
- extra transactions
- extra metadata use/churn for creating relocation metadata
- trying to read the extent tree to look for extents (and in this case
finding none)

During fiemap, when determining if a data extent is shared or not, if we
don't find the extent is directly shared, then we need to determine if
it's shared through subtrees. For that we need to resolve the indirect
reference we found in order to figure out the path in the inode's fs tree,
which is a path starting at the fs tree's root node and going down to the
leaf that contains the file extent item that points to the data extent.
We then proceed to determine if any extent buffer in that path is shared
with other trees or not.
However when the generation of the data extent is more recent than the
last generation used to snapshot the root, we don't need to determine
the path, since the data extent can not be shared through snapshots.
For this case we currently still determine the leaf of that path (at
find_parent_nodes(), but then stop determining the other nodes in the
path (at btrfs_is_data_extent_shared()) as it's pointless.
So do the check of the data extent's generation earlier, at
find_parent_nodes(), before trying to resolve the indirect reference to
determine the leaf in the path. This saves us from doing one expensive
b+tree search in the fs tree of our target inode, as well as other minor
work.
The following test was run on a non-debug kernel (Debian's default kernel
config):
$ cat test-fiemap.sh

That's a -46.4% total reduction for the metadata not cached case, and
a -47.0% reduction for the cached metadata case.
The test is somewhat limited in the sense the gains may be higher in
practice, because in the test the filesystem is small, so we have small
fs and extent trees, plus there's no concurrent access to the trees as
well, therefore no lock contention there.

We then proceed to determine if any extent buffer in that path is shared

Currently whenever we find the data extent that a file extent item points
to is not directly shared, we always resolve the path in the fs tree, and
then check if any extent buffer in the path is shared. This is a lot of
work and when we have file extent items that belong to the same leaf, we
have the same path, so we only need to calculate it once.
This change does that, it keeps track of the current and previous leaf,
and when we find that a data extent is not directly shared, we try to
compute the fs tree path only once and then use it for every other file
extent item in the same leaf, using the existing cached path result for
the leaf as long as the cache results are valid.
This saves us from doing expensive b+tree searches in the fs tree of our

Move the static functions to lookup and store sharedness check of an
extent buffer to a location above find_all_parents(), because in the
next patch the lookup function will be used by find_all_parents().
The store function is also moved just because it's the counter part
to the lookup function and it's best to have their definitions close
together.

During fiemap we process all the file extent items of an inode, by their
file offset order (left to right b+tree order), and then check if the data
extent they point at is shared or not. Until now we didn't cache those
results, we only did it for b+tree nodes/leaves since for each unique
b+tree path we have access to hundreds of file extent items. However, it
is also common to repeat checking the sharedness of a particular data
extent in a very short time window, and the cases that lead to that are
the following:
1) COW writes.
If have a file extent item like this:
[ bytenr X, offset = 0, num_bytes = 512K ]
file offset 0 512K
Then a 4K write into file offset 64K happens, we end up with the
following file extent item layout:
[ bytenr X, offset = 0, num_bytes = 64K ]
file offset 0 64K
[ bytenr Y, offset = 0, num_bytes = 4K ]
file offset 64K 68K
[ bytenr X, offset = 68K, num_bytes = 444K ]
file offset 68K 512K
So during fiemap we well check for the sharedness of the data extent
with bytenr X twice. Typically for COW writes and for at least
moderately updated files, we end up with many file extent items that
point to different sections of the same data extent.
2) Writing into a NOCOW file after a snapshot is taken.
This happens if the target extent was created in a generation older
than the generation where the last snapshot for the root (the tree the
inode belongs to) was made.
This leads to a scenario like the previous one.
3) Writing into sections of a preallocated extent.
For example if a file has the following layout:
[ bytenr X, offset = 0, num_bytes = 1M, type = prealloc ]
0 1M
After doing a 4K write into file offset 0 and another 4K write into
offset 512K, we get the following layout:
[ bytenr X, offset = 0, num_bytes = 4K, type = regular ]
0 4K
[ bytenr X, offset = 4K, num_bytes = 508K, type = prealloc ]
4K 512K
[ bytenr X, offset = 512K, num_bytes = 4K, type = regular ]
512K 516K
[ bytenr X, offset = 516K, num_bytes = 508K, type = prealloc ]
516K 1M
So we end up with 4 consecutive file extent items pointing to the data
extent at bytenr X.
4) Hole punching in the middle of an extent.
For example if a file has the following file extent item:
[ bytenr X, offset = 0, num_bytes = 8M ]
0 8M
And then hole is punched for the file range [4M, 6M[, we our file
extent item split into two:
[ bytenr X, offset = 0, num_bytes = 4M ]
0 4M
[ 2M hole, implicit or explicit depending on NO_HOLES feature ]
4M 6M
[ bytenr X, offset = 6M, num_bytes = 2M ]
6M 8M
Again, we end up with two file extent items pointing to the same
data extent.
5) When reflinking (clone and deduplication) within the same file.
This is probably the least common case of all.
In cases 1, 2, 4 and 4, when we have multiple file extent items that point
to the same data extent, their distance is usually short, typically
separated by a few slots in a b+tree leaf (or across sibling leaves). For
case 5, the distance can vary a lot, but it's typically the less common
case.
This change caches the result of the sharedness checks for data extents,
but only for the last 8 extents that we notice that our inode refers to
with multiple file extent items. Whenever we want to check if a data
extent is shared, we lookup the cache which consists of doing a linear
scan of an 8 elements array, and if we find the data extent there, we
return the result and don't check the extent tree and delayed refs.
The array/cache is small so that doing the search has no noticeable
negative impact on the performance in case we don't have file extent items
within a distance of 8 slots that point to the same data extent.
Slots in the cache/array are overwritten in a simple round robin fashion,
as that approach fits very well.
Using this simple approach with only the last 8 data extents seen is
effective as usually when multiple file extents items point to the same
data extent, their distance is within 8 slots. It also uses very little
memory and the time to cache a result or lookup the cache is negligible.
The following test was run on non-debug kernel (Debian's default kernel
config) to measure the impact in the case of COW writes (first example
given above), where we run fiemap after overwriting 33% of the blocks of
a file:
$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/dev/sdi
MNT=/mnt/sdi
umount $DEV &> /dev/null
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV
mount $DEV $MNT
FILE_SIZE=$((1 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024))
# Create the file full of 1M extents.
xfs_io -f -s -c "pwrite -b 1M -S 0xab 0 $FILE_SIZE" $MNT/foobar
block_count=$((FILE_SIZE / 4096))
# Overwrite about 33% of the file blocks.
overwrite_count=$((block_count / 3))
echo -e "\nOverwriting $overwrite_count 4K blocks (out of $block_count)..."
RANDOM=123
for ((i = 1; i <= $overwrite_count; i++)); do
off=$(((RANDOM % block_count) * 4096))
xfs_io -c "pwrite -S 0xcd $off 4K" $MNT/foobar > /dev/null
echo -ne "\r$i blocks overwritten..."
done
echo -e "\n"
# Unmount and mount to clear all cached metadata.
umount $MNT
mount $DEV $MNT
start=$(date +%s%N)
filefrag $MNT/foobar
end=$(date +%s%N)
dur=$(( (end - start) / 1000000 ))
echo "fiemap took $dur milliseconds"
umount $MNT
Result before applying this patch:
fiemap took 128 milliseconds
Result after applying this patch:
fiemap took 92 milliseconds (-28.1%)
The test is somewhat limited in the sense the gains may be higher in
practice, because in the test the filesystem is small, so we have small
fs and extent trees, plus there's no concurrent access to the trees as
well, therefore no lock contention there.

At find_parent_nodes(), at its last step, when iterating over all direct
references, we are checking if we have a share context and if we have
a reference with a different root from the one in the share context.
However that logic is pointless because of two reasons:
1) After the previous patch in the series (subject "btrfs: remove roots
ulist when checking data extent sharedness"), the roots argument is
always NULL when using a share check context (struct share_check), so
this code is never triggered;
2) Even before that previous patch, we could not hit this code because
if we had a reference with a root different from the one in our share
context, then we would have exited earlier when doing either of the
following:
- Adding a second direct ref to the direct refs red black tree
resulted in extent_is_shared() returning true when called from
add_direct_ref() -> add_prelim_ref(), after processing delayed
references or while processing references in the extent tree;
- When adding a second reference to the indirect refs red black
tree (same as above, extent_is_shared() returns true);
- If we only have one indirect reference and no direct references,
then when resolving it at resolve_indirect_refs() we immediately
return that the target extent is shared, therefore never reaching
that loop that iterates over all direct references at
find_parent_nodes();
- If we have 1 indirect reference and 1 direct reference, then we
also exit early because extent_is_shared() ends up returning true
when called through add_prelim_ref() (by add_direct_ref() or
add_indirect_ref()) or add_delayed_refs(). Same applies as when
having a combination of direct, indirect and indirect with missing
key references.
This logic had been obsoleted since commit 3ec4d3238a ("btrfs:
allow backref search checks for shared extents"), which introduced the
early exits in case an extent is shared.
So just remove that logic, and assert at find_parent_nodes() that when we
have a share context we don't have a roots ulist and that we haven't found
the extent to be directly shared after processing delayed references and
all references from the extent tree.

Currently btrfs_is_data_extent_shared() is passing a ulist for the roots
argument of find_parent_nodes(), however it does not use that ulist for
anything and for this context that list always ends up with at most one
element.
Since find_parent_nodes() is able to deal with a NULL ulist for its roots
argument, make btrfs_is_data_extent_shared() pass it NULL and avoid the
burden of allocating memory for the unnused roots ulist, initializing it,
releasing it and allocating one struct ulist_node for it during the call
to find_parent_nodes().

When calling btrfs_is_data_extent_shared() we pass two ulists that were
allocated by the caller. This is because the single caller, fiemap, calls
btrfs_is_data_extent_shared() multiple times and the ulists can be reused,
instead of allocating new ones before each call and freeing them after
each call.
Now that we have a context structure/object that we pass to
btrfs_is_data_extent_shared(), we can move those ulists to it, and hide
their allocation and the context's allocation in a helper function, as
well as the freeing of the ulists and the context object. This allows to
reduce the number of parameters passed to btrfs_is_data_extent_shared(),
the need to pass the ulists from extent_fiemap() to fiemap_process_hole()
and having the caller deal with allocating and releasing the ulists.
Also rename one of the ulists from 'tmp' / 'tmp_ulist' to 'refs', since
that's a much better name as it reflects what the list is used for (and
matching the argument name for find_parent_nodes()).

Right now we are using a struct btrfs_backref_shared_cache to pass state
across multiple btrfs_is_data_extent_shared() calls. The structure's name
closely follows its current purpose, which is to cache previous checks
for the sharedness of metadata extents. However we will start using the
structure for more things other than caching sharedness checks, so rename
it to struct btrfs_backref_share_check_ctx.

Currently we pass a root and an inode number as arguments for
btrfs_is_data_extent_shared() and the inode number is always from an
inode that belongs to that root (it wouldn't make sense otherwise).
In every context that we call btrfs_is_data_extent_shared() (fiemap only),
we have an inode available, so directly pass the inode to the function
instead of a root and inode number. This reduces the number of parameters
and it makes the function's signature conform to most other functions we
have.

When doing backref walking to determine if an extent is shared, we are
testing if the inode number, stored in the 'inum' field of struct
share_check, is 0. However that can never be case, since the all instances
of the structure are created at btrfs_is_data_extent_shared(), which
always initializes it with the inode number from a fs tree (and the number
for any inode from any tree can never be 0). So remove the checks.

At btrfs_clone_extent_buffer(), before allocating the pages array for the
new extent buffer we are calling memset() to zero out the pages array of
the extent buffer. This is pointless however, because the extent buffer
already has every element in its pages array pointing to NULL, as it was
allocated with kmem_cache_zalloc(). The memset() was introduced with
commit dd137dd1f2 ("btrfs: factor out allocating an array of pages"),
but even before that commit we already depended on the pages array being
initialized to NULL for the error paths that need to call
btrfs_release_extent_buffer().
So remove the memset(), it's useless and slightly increases the object
text size.

During fiemap and lseek (hole and data seeking), there's no point in
iterating the inode's io tree to count delalloc bits if the inode's
delalloc bytes counter has a value of zero, as that counter is updated
whenever we set a range for delalloc or clear a range from delalloc.
So skip the counting and io tree iteration if the inode's delalloc bytes
counter has a value of zero. This helps save time when processing a file
range corresponding to a hole or prealloc (unwritten) extent.
This patch is part of a series comprised of the following patches:
btrfs: get the next extent map during fiemap/lseek more efficiently
btrfs: skip unnecessary extent map searches during fiemap and lseek
btrfs: skip unnecessary delalloc search during fiemap and lseek

If we have no outstanding extents it means we don't have any extent maps
corresponding to delalloc that is flushing, as when an ordered extent is
created we increment the number of outstanding extents to 1 and when we
remove the ordered extent we decrement them by 1. So skip extent map tree
searches if the number of outstanding ordered extents is 0, saving time as
the tree is not empty if we have previously made some reads or flushed
delalloc, as in those cases it can have a very large number of extent maps
for files with many extents.
This helps save time when processing a file range corresponding to a hole
or prealloc (unwritten) extent.

At find_delalloc_subrange(), when we need to get the next extent map, we
do a full search on the extent map tree (a red black tree). This is fine
but it's a lot more efficient to simply use rb_next(), which typically
requires iterating over less nodes of the tree and never needs to compare
the ranges of nodes with the one we are looking for.
So add a public helper to extent_map.{h,c} to get the extent map that
immediately follows another extent map, using rb_next(), and use that
helper at find_delalloc_subrange().

For Btrfs RAID56, we have a caching system for btrfs raid bios (rbio).
We call cache_rbio_pages() to mark a qualified rbio ready for cache.
The timing happens at:
- finish_rmw()
At this timing, we have already read all necessary sectors, along with
the rbio sectors, we have covered all data stripes.
- __raid_recover_end_io()
At this timing, we have rebuild the rbio, thus all data sectors
involved (either from stripe or bio list) are uptodate now.
Thus at the timing of cache_rbio_pages(), we should have all data
sectors uptodate.
This patch will make it explicit that all data sectors are uptodate at
cache_rbio_pages() timing, mostly to prepare for the incoming
verification at RMW time.
This patch will add:
- Extra ASSERT()s in cache_rbio_pages()
This is to make sure all data sectors, which are not covered by bio,
are already uptodate.
- Extra ASSERT()s in steal_rbio()
Since only cached rbio can be stolen, thus every data sector should
already be uptodate in the source rbio.
- Update __raid_recover_end_io() to update recovered sector->uptodate
Previously __raid_recover_end_io() will only mark failed sectors
uptodate if it's doing an RMW.
But this can trigger new ASSERT()s, as for recovery case, a recovered
failed sector will not be marked uptodate, and trigger ASSERT() in
later cache_rbio_pages() call.

Currently inside alloc_rbio(), we allocate a larger memory to contain
the following members:
- struct btrfs_raid_rbio itself
- stripe_pages array
- bio_sectors array
- stripe_sectors array
- finish_pointers array
Then update rbio pointers to point the extra space after the rbio
structure itself.
Thus it introduced a complex CONSUME_ALLOC() macro to help the thing.
This is too hacky, and is going to make later pointers expansion harder.
This patch will change it to use regular kcalloc() for each pointer
inside btrfs_raid_bio, making the later expansion much easier.
And introduce a helper free_raid_bio_pointers() to free up all the
pointer members in btrfs_raid_bio, which will be used in both
free_raid_bio() and error path of alloc_rbio().
