Dave Chinner f661f1e0bf xfs: sync work is now only periodic log work
The only thing the periodic sync work does now is flush the AIL and
idle the log. These are really functions of the log code, so move
the work to xfs_log.c and rename it appropriately.

The only wart that this leaves behind is the xfssyncd_centisecs
sysctl, otherwise the xfssyncd is dead. Clean up any comments that
related to xfssyncd to reflect it's passing.

Dave Chinner 4c2d542f2e xfs: Do background CIL flushes via a workqueue
Doing background CIL flushes adds significant latency to whatever
async transaction that triggers it. To avoid blocking async
transactions on things like waiting for log buffer IO to complete,
move the CIL push off into a workqueue.  By moving the push work
into a workqueue, we remove all the latency that the commit adds
from the foreground transaction commit path. This also means that
single threaded workloads won't do the CIL push procssing, leaving
them more CPU to do more async transactions.

To do this, we need to keep track of the sequence number we have
pushed work for. This avoids having many transaction commits
attempting to schedule work for the same sequence, and ensures that
we only ever have one push (background or forced) in progress at a
time. It also means that we don't need to take the CIL lock in write
mode to check for potential background push races, which reduces
lock contention.

To avoid potential issues with "smart" IO schedulers, don't use the
workqueue for log force triggered flushes. Instead, do them directly
so that the log IO is done directly by the process issuing the log
force and so doesn't get stuck on IO elevator queue idling
incorrectly delaying the log IO from the workqueue.

Christoph Hellwig 09a423a3d6 xfs: split tail_lsn assignments from log space wakeups
Currently xfs_log_move_tail has a tail_lsn argument that is horribly
overloaded: it may contain either an actual lsn to assign to the log tail,
0 as a special case to use the last sync LSN, or 1 to indicate that no tail
LSN assignment should be performed, and we should opportunisticly wake up
at one task waiting for log space even if we did not move the LSN.

Remove the tail lsn assigned from xfs_log_move_tail and make the two callers
use xlog_assign_tail_lsn instead of the current variant of partially using
the code in xfs_log_move_tail and partially opencoding it.  Note that means
we grow an addition lock roundtrip on the AIL lock for each bulk update
or delete, which is still far less than what we had before introducing the
bulk operations.  If this proves to be a problem we can still add a variant
of xlog_assign_tail_lsn that expects the lock to be held already.

Also rename the remainder of xfs_log_move_tail to xfs_log_space_wake as
that name describes its functionality much better.

Dave Chinner da8a1a4a4d xfs: convert log tail checking to a warning
On the Power platform, the log tail debug checks fire excessively
causing the system to panic early in testing. The debug checks are
known to be racy, though on x86_64 there is no evidence that they
trigger at all.

We want to keep the checks active on debug systems to alert us to
problems with log space accounting, but we need to reduce the impact
of a racy check on testing on the Power platform.

As a result, convert the ASSERT conditions to warnings, and
allow them to fire only once per filesystem mount. This will prevent
false positives from interfering with testing, whilst still
providing us with the indication that they may be a problem with log
space accounting should that occur.

Dave Chinner d0eb2f38b2 xfs: convert grant head manipulations to lockless algorithm
The only thing that the grant lock remains to protect is the grant head
manipulations when adding or removing space from the log. These calculations
are already based on atomic variables, so we can already update them safely
without locks. However, the grant head manpulations require atomic multi-step
calculations to be executed, which the algorithms currently don't allow.

To make these multi-step calculations atomic, convert the algorithms to
compare-and-exchange loops on the atomic variables. That is, we sample the old
value, perform the calculation and use atomic64_cmpxchg() to attempt to update
the head with the new value. If the head has not changed since we sampled it,
it will succeed and we are done. Otherwise, we rerun the calculation again from
a new sample of the head.

This allows us to remove the grant lock from around all the grant head space
manipulations, and that effectively removes the grant lock from the log
completely. Hence we can remove the grant lock completely from the log at this
point.

Dave Chinner 3f16b98507 xfs: introduce new locks for the log grant ticket wait queues
The log grant ticket wait queues are currently protected by the log
grant lock.  However, the queues are functionally independent from
each other, and operations on them only require serialisation
against other queue operations now that all of the other log
variables they use are atomic values.

Hence, we can make them independent of the grant lock by introducing
new locks just to protect the lists operations. because the lists
are independent, we can use a lock per list and ensure that reserve
and write head queuing do not contend.

To ensure forced shutdowns work correctly in conjunction with the
new fast paths, ensure that we check whether the log has been shut
down in the grant functions once we hold the relevant spin locks but
before we go to sleep. This is needed to co-ordinate correctly with
the wakeups that are issued on the ticket queues so we don't leave
any processes sleeping on the queues during a shutdown.

Dave Chinner 80168676eb xfs: force background CIL push under sustained load
I have been seeing occasional pauses in transaction throughput up to
30s long under heavy parallel workloads. The only notable thing was
that the xfsaild was trying to be active during the pauses, but
making no progress. It was running exactly 20 times a second (on the
50ms no-progress backoff), and the number of pushbuf events was
constant across this time as well.  IOWs, the xfsaild appeared to be
stuck on buffers that it could not push out.

Further investigation indicated that it was trying to push out inode
buffers that were pinned and/or locked. The xfsbufd was also getting
woken at the same frequency (by the xfsaild, no doubt) to push out
delayed write buffers. The xfsbufd was not making any progress
because all the buffers in the delwri queue were pinned. This scan-
and-make-no-progress dance went one in the trace for some seconds,
before the xfssyncd came along an issued a log force, and then
things started going again.

However, I noticed something strange about the log force - there
were way too many IO's issued. 516 log buffers were written, to be
exact. That added up to 129MB of log IO, which got me very
interested because it's almost exactly 25% of the size of the log.
He delayed logging code is suppose to aggregate the minimum of 25%
of the log or 8MB worth of changes before flushing. That's what
really puzzled me - why did a log force write 129MB instead of only
8MB?

Essentially what has happened is that no CIL pushes had occurred
since the previous tail push which cleared out 25% of the log space.
That caused all the new transactions to block because there wasn't
log space for them, but they kick the xfsaild to push the tail.
However, the xfsaild was not making progress because there were
buffers it could not lock and flush, and the xfsbufd could not flush
them because they were pinned. As a result, both the xfsaild and the
xfsbufd could not move the tail of the log forward without the CIL
first committing.

The cause of the problem was that the background CIL push, which
should happen when 8MB of aggregated changes have been committed, is
being held off by the concurrent transaction commit load. The
background push does a down_write_trylock() which will fail if there
is a concurrent transaction commit holding the push lock in read
mode. With 8 CPUs all doing transactions as fast as they can, there
was enough concurrent transaction commits to hold off the background
push until tail-pushing could no longer free log space, and the halt
would occur.

It should be noted that there is no reason why it would halt at 25%
of log space used by a single CIL checkpoint. This bug could
definitely violate the "no transaction should be larger than half
the log" requirement and hence result in corruption if the system
crashed under heavy load. This sort of bug is exactly the reason why
delayed logging was tagged as experimental....

The fix is to start blocking background pushes once the threshold
has been exceeded. Rework the threshold calculations to keep the
amount of log space a CIL checkpoint can use to below that of the
AIL push threshold to avoid the problem completely.

Dave Chinner a44f13edf0 xfs: Reduce log force overhead for delayed logging
Delayed logging adds some serialisation to the log force process to
ensure that it does not deference a bad commit context structure
when determining if a CIL push is necessary or not. It does this by
grabing the CIL context lock exclusively, then dropping it before
pushing the CIL if necessary. This causes serialisation of all log
forces and pushes regardless of whether a force is necessary or not.
As a result fsync heavy workloads (like dbench) can be significantly
slower with delayed logging than without.

To avoid this penalty, copy the current sequence from the context to
the CIL structure when they are swapped. This allows us to do
unlocked checks on the current sequence without having to worry
about dereferencing context structures that may have already been
freed. Hence we can remove the CIL context locking in the forcing
code and only call into the push code if the current context matches
the sequence we need to force.

By passing the sequence into the push code, we can check the
sequence again once we have the CIL lock held exclusive and abort if
the sequence has already been pushed. This avoids a lock round-trip
and unnecessary CIL pushes when we have racing push calls.

The result is that the regression in dbench performance goes away -
this change improves dbench performance on a ramdisk from ~2100MB/s
to ~2500MB/s. This compares favourably to not using delayed logging
which retuns ~2500MB/s for the same workload.

Dave Chinner df806158b0 xfs: enable background pushing of the CIL
If we let the CIL grow without bound, it will grow large enough to violate
recovery constraints (must be at least one complete transaction in the log at
all times) or take forever to write out through the log buffers. Hence we need
a check during asynchronous transactions as to whether the CIL needs to be
pushed.

We track the amount of log space the CIL consumes, so it is relatively simple
to limit it on a pure size basis. Make the limit the minimum of just under half
the log size (recovery constraint) or 8MB of log space (which is an awful lot
of metadata).

Dave Chinner 71e330b593 xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code
The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as
such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount
option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that
should not be used in production yet.

We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not
yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List
(CIL) is for.

The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log
vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit
Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable
this tracking.

To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed
logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context
for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction
completion.  This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space
log required/used by the context checkpoint.

To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item,
rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new
log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to
allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the
second to fill them out.  This log vector chain can then be passed
to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL.

Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just
a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly
more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point
back at the memory buffer we just copied into.

This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not
already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be
pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it
again.

The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space
the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the
transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex
becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the
checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update
all the tickets, counters, etc correctly.

Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach
the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live
until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in
time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time.

Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space
used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the
space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be
triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event.

Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the
transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it
to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a
commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket
and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during
Io completion to complete the checkpoint.

We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight
checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure
that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct
sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The
second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only
flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with.

To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the
checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for
the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides
the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

respect to the transaction structure lifecycle. Hence we can no longer use

This commit provides the infrastructure to access the xlog_tid_t held in the

into the transaction and log structures to find this out.

Christoph Hellwig 0b1b213fcf xfs: event tracing support
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:

Dave Chinner cc09c0dc57 [XFS] Fix double free of log tickets
When an I/O error occurs during an intermediate commit on a rolling
transaction, xfs_trans_commit() will free the transaction structure
and the related ticket. However, the duplicate transaction that
gets used as the transaction continues still contains a pointer
to the ticket. Hence when the duplicate transaction is cancelled
and freed, we free the ticket a second time.

Add reference counting to the ticket so that we hold an extra
reference to the ticket over the transaction commit. We drop the
extra reference once we have checked that the transaction commit
did not return an error, thus avoiding a double free on commit
error.

Credit to Nick Piggin for tripping over the problem.

Lachlan McIlroy 31bd61f2bb [XFS] Move memory allocations for log tracing out of the critical path
Memory allocations for log->l_grant_trace and iclog->ic_trace are done on
demand when the first event is logged. In xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we
call xlog_trace_iclog() under a spinlock and allocating memory here can
cause us to sleep with a spinlock held and deadlock the system.

For the log grant tracing we use KM_NOSLEEP but that means we can lose
trace entries. Since there is no locking to serialize the log grant
tracing we could race and have multiple allocations and leak memory.

So move the allocations to where we initialize the log/iclog structures.
Use KM_NOFS to avoid recursing into the filesystem and drop log->l_trace
since it's not even used.

Matthew Wilcox d748c62367 [XFS] Convert l_flushsema to a sv_t
The l_flushsema doesn't exactly have completion semantics, nor mutex
semantics. It's used as a list of tasks which are waiting to be notified
that a flush has completed. It was also being used in a way that was
potentially racy, depending on the semaphore implementation.

By using a sv_t instead of a semaphore we avoid the need for a separate
counter, since we know we just need to wake everything on the queue.

Original waitqueue implementation from Matthew Wilcox. Cleanup and
conversion to sv_t by Christoph Hellwig.

Rather than use the icloglock for protecting the iclog completion callback
chain, use a new per-iclog lock so that walking the callback chain doesn't
require holding a global lock.

This reduces contention on the icloglock during transaction commit and log
I/O completion by reducing the number of times we need to hold the global
icloglock during these operations.

David Chinner 155cc6b784 [XFS] Use atomics for iclog reference counting
Now that we update the log tail LSN less frequently on transaction
completion, we pass the contention straight to the global log state lock
(l_iclog_lock) during transaction completion.

We currently have to take this lock to decrement the iclog reference
count. there is a reference count on each iclog, so we need to take þhe
global lock for all refcount changes.

When large numbers of processes are all doing small trnasctions, the iclog
reference counts will be quite high, and the state change that absolutely
requires the l_iclog_lock is the except rather than the norm.

Change the reference counting on the iclogs to use atomic_inc/dec so that
we can use atomic_dec_and_lock during transaction completion and avoid the
need for grabbing the l_iclog_lock for every reference count decrement
except the one that matters - the last.

except we pass the cycle and block arguments explicitly instead of a
log paramter. The latter two variants only had 2, respectively one
user anyway.
- the GET_CYCLE is replaced by a xlog_get_cycle inline with exactly the
same calling conventions.
- GET_CLIENT_ID is replaced by xlog_get_client_id which leaves away
the unused arch argument. Instead of conditional defintions
depending on host endianess we now do an unconditional swap and shift
then, which generates equal code.
- the unused XLOG_SET macro is removed.
