If we process the last item in the leaf and hit an I/O error while
reading the next leaf, we return -EIO without having adjusted the
position. Since we have emitted dirents, getdents() will return
the byte count to the user instead of the error. Subsequent callers
will emit the last successful dirent again, and return -EIO again,
with the same result. Callers loop forever.
Instead, if we always increment ctx->pos after emitting or skipping
the dirent, we'll be sure that we won't hit the same one again. When
we go to process the next leaf, we won't have emitted any dirents
and the -EIO will be returned to the user properly. We also don't
need to track if we've emitted a dirent already or if we've changed
the position yet.

BTRFS is using a variety of slab caches to satisfy internal needs.
Those slab caches are always allocated with the SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT,
meaning allocations from the caches are going to be accounted as
SReclaimable. At the same time btrfs is not registering any shrinkers
whatsoever, thus preventing memory from the slabs to be shrunk. This
means those caches are not in fact reclaimable.
To fix this remove the SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT on all caches apart from the
inode cache, since this one is being freed by the generic VFS super_block
shrinker. Also set the transaction related caches as SLAB_TEMPORARY,
to better document the lifetime of the objects (it just translates
to SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT).

We reserve space for the inode update when we first reserve space for writing to
a file. However there are lots of ways that we can use this reservation and not
have it for subsequent ordered extents. Previously we'd fall through and try to
reserve metadata bytes for this, then we'd just steal the full reservation from
the delalloc_block_rsv, and if that didn't have enough space we'd steal the full
reservation from the global reserve. The problem with this is we can easily
just return ENOSPC and fallback to updating the inode item directly. In the
worst case (assuming 4k nodesize) we'd steal 64kib from the global reserve if we
fall all the way through, however if we just fallback and update the inode
directly we'd only steal 4k * BTRFS_PATH_MAX in the worst case which is 32kib.
We would have also just added the extent item for the inode so we likely will
have already cow'ed down most of the way to the leaf containing the inode item,
so we are more often than not only need one or two nodesize's worth of
reservations. Given the reservation for the extent itself is also a worst case
we will likely already have space to cover the inode update.
This change will make us behave better in the theoretical worst case, and much
better in the case that we don't have our reservation and cannot reserve more
metadata. Thanks,

So btrfs_block_rsv_migrate just unconditionally calls block_rsv_migrate_bytes.
Not only this but it unconditionally changes the size of the block_rsv. This
isn't a bug strictly speaking, but it makes truncate block rsv's look funny
because every time we migrate bytes over its size grows, even though we only
want it to be a specific size. So collapse this into one function that takes an
update_size argument and make truncate and evict not update the size for

Commit fe742fd4f9 ("Revert "btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared()"")
backed out the conversion to ->iterate_shared() for Btrfs because the
delayed inode handling in btrfs_real_readdir() is racy. However, we can
still do readdir in parallel if there are no delayed nodes.
This is a temporary fix which upgrades the shared inode lock to an
exclusive lock only when we have delayed items until we come up with a
more complete solution. While we're here, rename the
btrfs_{get,put}_delayed_items functions to make it very clear that
they're just for readdir.
Tested with xfstests and by doing a parallel kernel build:
while make tinyconfig && make -j4 && git clean dqfx; do
:
done
along with a bunch of parallel finds in another shell:
while true; do
for ((i=0; i<4; i++)); do

The value of ctx->pos in the last readdir call is supposed to be set to
INT_MAX due to 32bit compatibility, unless 'pos' is intentially set to a
larger value, then it's LLONG_MAX.
There's a report from PaX SIZE_OVERFLOW plugin that "ctx->pos++"
overflows (https://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4284), on a
64bit arch, where the value is 0x7fffffffffffffff ie. LLONG_MAX before
the increment.
We can get to that situation like that:
* emit all regular readdir entries
* still in the same call to readdir, bump the last pos to INT_MAX
* next call to readdir will not emit any entries, but will reach the
bump code again, finds pos to be INT_MAX and sets it to LLONG_MAX
Normally this is not a problem, but if we call readdir again, we'll find
'pos' set to LLONG_MAX and the unconditional increment will overflow.
The report from Victor at
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/49500) with debugging
print shows that pattern:

The jump from 7fffffff to 7fffffffffffffff happens when new dir entries
are not yet synced and are processed from the delayed list. Then the code
could go to the bump section again even though it might not emit any new
dir entries from the delayed list.
The fix avoids entering the "bump" section again once we've finished
emitting the entries, both for synced and delayed entries.

We need to fill inode when we found a node for it in delayed_nodes_tree.
But we did not fill the ->last_trans currently, it will cause the test
of xfstest/generic/311 fail. Scenario of the 311 is shown as below:
Problem:
(1). test_fd = open(fname, O_RDWR|O_DIRECT)
(2). pwrite(test_fd, buf, 4096, 0)
(3). close(test_fd)
(4). drop_all_caches() <-------- "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches"
(5). test_fd = open(fname, O_RDWR|O_DIRECT)
(6). fsync(test_fd);
<-------- we did not get the correct log entry for the file
Reason:
When we re-open this file in (5), we would find a node
in delayed_nodes_tree and fill the inode we are lookup with the
information. But the ->last_trans is not filled, then the fsync()
will check the ->last_trans and found it's 0 then say this inode
is already in our tree which is commited, not recording the extents
for it.
Fix:
This patch fill the ->last_trans properly and set the
runtime_flags if needed in this situation. Then we can get the
log entries we expected after (6) and generic/311 passed.

Commit 1d52c78afb (Btrfs: try not to ENOSPC on log replay) added a
check to skip delayed inode updates during log replay because it
confuses the enospc code. But the delayed processing will end up
ignoring delayed refs from log replay because the inode itself wasn't
put through the delayed code.
This can end up triggering a warning at commit time:
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 778 at fs/btrfs/delayed-inode.c:1410 btrfs_assert_delayed_root_empty+0x32/0x34()
Which is repeated for each commit because we never process the delayed
inode ref update.
The fix used here is to change btrfs_delayed_delete_inode_ref to return
an error if we're currently in log replay. The caller will do the ref
deletion immediately and everything will work properly.

This has been reported and discussed for a long time, and this hang occurs in
both 3.15 and 3.16.
Btrfs now migrates to use kernel workqueue, but it introduces this hang problem.
Btrfs has a kind of work queued as an ordered way, which means that its
ordered_func() must be processed in the way of FIFO, so it usually looks like --
normal_work_helper(arg)
work = container_of(arg, struct btrfs_work, normal_work);
work->func() <---- (we name it work X)
for ordered_work in wq->ordered_list
ordered_work->ordered_func()
ordered_work->ordered_free()
The hang is a rare case, first when we find free space, we get an uncached block
group, then we go to read its free space cache inode for free space information,
so it will
file a readahead request
btrfs_readpages()
for page that is not in page cache
__do_readpage()
submit_extent_page()
btrfs_submit_bio_hook()
btrfs_bio_wq_end_io()
submit_bio()
end_workqueue_bio() <--(ret by the 1st endio)
queue a work(named work Y) for the 2nd
also the real endio()
So the hang occurs when work Y's work_struct and work X's work_struct happens
to share the same address.
A bit more explanation,
A,B,C -- struct btrfs_work
arg -- struct work_struct
kthread:
worker_thread()
pick up a work_struct from @worklist
process_one_work(arg)
worker->current_work = arg; <-- arg is A->normal_work
worker->current_func(arg)
normal_work_helper(arg)
A = container_of(arg, struct btrfs_work, normal_work);
A->func()
A->ordered_func()
A->ordered_free() <-- A gets freed
B->ordered_func()
submit_compressed_extents()
find_free_extent()
load_free_space_inode()
... <-- (the above readhead stack)
end_workqueue_bio()
btrfs_queue_work(work C)
B->ordered_free()
As if work A has a high priority in wq->ordered_list and there are more ordered
works queued after it, such as B->ordered_func(), its memory could have been
freed before normal_work_helper() returns, which means that kernel workqueue
code worker_thread() still has worker->current_work pointer to be work
A->normal_work's, ie. arg's address.
Meanwhile, work C is allocated after work A is freed, work C->normal_work
and work A->normal_work are likely to share the same address(I confirmed this
with ftrace output, so I'm not just guessing, it's rare though).
When another kthread picks up work C->normal_work to process, and finds our
kthread is processing it(see find_worker_executing_work()), it'll think
work C as a collision and skip then, which ends up nobody processing work C.
So the situation is that our kthread is waiting forever on work C.
Besides, there're other cases that can lead to deadlock, but the real problem
is that all btrfs workqueue shares one work->func, -- normal_work_helper,
so this makes each workqueue to have its own helper function, but only a
wraper pf normal_work_helper.
With this patch, I no long hit the above hang.

The inode reference item is close to inode item, so we insert it simultaneously
with the inode item insertion when we create a file/directory.. In fact, we also
can handle the inode reference deletion by the same way. So we made this patch to
introduce the delayed inode reference deletion for the single link inode(At most
case, the file doesn't has hard link, so we don't take the hard link into account).
This function is based on the delayed inode mechanism. After applying this patch,
we can reduce the time of the file/directory deletion by ~10%.

The current code kicks off an async work queue item for each delayed
node, which creates a lot of churn. It also uses a fixed 1 HZ waiting
period for the throttle, which allows us to build a lot of pending
work and can slow down the commit.
This changes us to watch a sequence counter as it is bumped during the
operations. We kick off fewer work items and have each work item do
more work.

We're running into having 50-100 orphans left over with xfstests 83
because of ENOSPC when trying to start the transaction for the inode update.
But in fact, it makes no sense in updating the inode for the new size while
we're deleting the stupid thing. This patch fixes this problem.

In some places(such as: evicting inode), we just can not flush the reserved
space of delalloc, flushing the delayed directory index and delayed inode
is OK, but we don't try to flush those things and just go back when there is
no enough space to be reserved. This patch fixes this problem.
We defined 3 types of the flush operations: NO_FLUSH, FLUSH_LIMIT and FLUSH_ALL.
If we can in the transaction, we should not flush anything, or the deadlock
would happen, so use NO_FLUSH. If we flushing the reserved space of delalloc
would cause deadlock, use FLUSH_LIMIT. In the other cases, FLUSH_ALL is used,
and we will flush all things.

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
"This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace
support. This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces
enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user
namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the
filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs,
nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review.
The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into
subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and
from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values
come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network.
Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user
namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues.
The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit
union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int.
Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to
handle those places with simple trivial patches.
Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing
quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before.
Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts
for most of the code size growth in my git tree.
Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from
"capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing
root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to
non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications.
While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code
I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process
netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed
usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty.
Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no
problems from identical code from different trees showing up in
linux-next.
After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to
win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

Sometimes we need choose the method of the reservation according to the type
of the block reservation, such as the reservation for the delayed inode update.
Now we identify the type just by comparing the address of the reservation
variants, it is very ugly if it is a temporary one because we need compare it
with all the common reservation variants. So we add a new "type" field to keep
the type the reservation variants.

Miao pointed this out while I was working on an orphan problem that messing

doesn't work out right. Turns out we've been doing this forever where we
have different parts of the bit field protected by either no lock at all or
different locks which could cause all sorts of weird problems including the
issue I was hitting. So instead make a runtime_flags thing that we use the
normal bit operations on that are all atomic so we can keep having our
no/different locking for the different flags and then make force_compress
it's own thing so it can be treated normally. Thanks,

People have been reporting ENOSPC crashes in finish_ordered_io. This is because
we try to steal from the delalloc block rsv to satisfy a reservation to update
the inode. The problem with this is we don't explicitly save space for updating
the inode when doing delalloc. This is kind of a problem and we've gotten away
with this because way back when we just stole from the delalloc reserve without
any questions, and this worked out fine because generally speaking the leaf had
been modified either by the mtime update when we did the original write or
because we just updated the leaf when we inserted the file extent item, only on
rare occasions had the leaf not actually been modified, and that was still ok
because we'd just use a block or two out of the over-reservation that is
delalloc.
Then came the delayed inode stuff. This is amazing, except it wants a full
reservation for updating the inode since it may do it at some point down the
road after we've written the blocks and we have to recow everything again. This
worked out because the delayed inode stuff just stole from the global reserve,
that is until recently when I changed that because it caused other problems.
So here we are, we're doing everything right and being screwed for it. So take
an extra reservation for the inode at delalloc reservation time and carry it
through the life of the delalloc reservation. If we need it we can steal it in
the delayed inode stuff. If we have already stolen it try and do a normal
metadata reservation. If that fails try to steal from the delalloc reservation.
If _that_ fails we'll get a WARN_ON() so I can start thinking of a better way to
solve this and in the meantime we'll steal from the global reserve.
With this patch I ran xfstests 13 in a loop for a couple of hours and didn't see
any problems.

We all keep getting those stupid warnings from use_block_rsv when running
stress.sh, and it's because the delayed insertion stuff is being stupid. It's
not the delayed insertion stuffs fault, it's all just stupid. When marking an
inode dirty for oh say updating the time on it, we just do a
btrfs_join_transaction, which doesn't reserve any space. This is stupid because
we're going to have to have space reserve to make this change, but we do it
because it's fast because chances are we're going to call it over and over again
and it doesn't matter. Well thanks to the delayed insertion stuff this is
mostly the case, so we do actually need to make this reservation. So if
trans->bytes_reserved is 0 then try to do a normal reservation. If not return
ENOSPC which will make the btrfs_dirty_inode start a proper transaction which
will let it do the whole ENOSPC dance and reserve enough space for the delayed
insertion to steal the reservation from the transaction.
The other stupid thing we do is not reserve space for the inode when writing to
the thing. Usually this is ok since we have to update the time so we'd have
already done all this work before we get to the endio stuff, so it doesn't
matter. But this is stupid because we could write the data after the
transaction commits where we changed the mtime of the inode so we have to cow
all the way down to the inode anyway. This used to be masked by the delalloc
reservation stuff, but because we delay the update it doesn't get masked in this
case. So again the delayed insertion stuff bites us in the ass. So if our
trans->block_rsv is delalloc, just steal the reservation from the delalloc
reserve. Hopefully this won't bite us in the ass, but I've said that before.
With this patch stress.sh no longer spits out those stupid warnings (famous last
words). Thanks,

delayed insertion reservations since we will know that only the delayed

The btrfs metadata btree is the source of significant
lock contention, especially in the root node. This
commit changes our locking to use a reader/writer
lock.
The lock is built on top of rw spinlocks, and it
extends the lock tracking to remember if we have a
read lock or a write lock when we go to blocking. Atomics
count the number of blocking readers or writers at any
given time.
It removes all of the adaptive spinning from the old code
and uses only the spinning/blocking hints inside of btrfs
to decide when it should continue spinning.
In read heavy workloads this is dramatically faster. In write
heavy workloads we're still faster because of less contention
on the root node lock.
We suffer slightly in dbench because we schedule more often
during write locks, but all other benchmarks so far are improved.

Snapshot creation has two phases. One is the initial snapshot setup,
and the second is done during commit, while nobody is allowed to modify
the root we are snapshotting.
The delayed metadata insertion code can break that rule, it does a
delayed inode update on the inode of the parent of the snapshot,
and delayed directory item insertion.
This makes sure to run the pending delayed operations before we
record the snapshot root, which avoids corruptions.

- Fix the bug of the cpu recursion spinlock, reported by Chris Mason
Changelog V1 -> V2:
- break up the global rb-tree, use a list to manage the delayed nodes,
which is created for every directory and file, and used to manage the
delayed directory name index items and the delayed inode item.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed nodes.
Compare with Ext3/4, the performance of file creation and deletion on btrfs
is very poor. the reason is that btrfs must do a lot of b+ tree insertions,
such as inode item, directory name item, directory name index and so on.
If we can do some delayed b+ tree insertion or deletion, we can improve the
performance, so we made this patch which implemented delayed directory name
index insertion/deletion and delayed inode update.
Implementation:
- introduce a delayed root object into the filesystem, that use two lists to
manage the delayed nodes which are created for every file/directory.
One is used to manage all the delayed nodes that have delayed items. And the
other is used to manage the delayed nodes which is waiting to be dealt with
by the work thread.
- Every delayed node has two rb-tree, one is used to manage the directory name
index which is going to be inserted into b+ tree, and the other is used to
manage the directory name index which is going to be deleted from b+ tree.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed operation. This worker is used
to deal with the works of the delayed directory name index items insertion
and deletion and the delayed inode update.
When the delayed items is beyond the lower limit, we create works for some
delayed nodes and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then
go back.
When the delayed items is beyond the upper bound, we create works for all
the delayed nodes that haven't been dealt with, and insert them into the work
queue of the worker, and then wait for that the untreated items is below some
threshold value.
- When we want to insert a directory name index into b+ tree, we just add the
information into the delayed inserting rb-tree.
And then we check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items
balance. (The balance policy is above.)
- When we want to delete a directory name index from the b+ tree, we search it
in the inserting rb-tree at first. If we look it up, just drop it. If not,
add the key of it into the delayed deleting rb-tree.
Similar to the delayed inserting rb-tree, we also check the number of the
delayed items and do delayed items balance.
(The same to inserting manipulation)
- When we want to update the metadata of some inode, we cached the data of the
inode into the delayed node. the worker will flush it into the b+ tree after
dealing with the delayed insertion and deletion.
- We will move the delayed node to the tail of the list after we access the
delayed node, By this way, we can cache more delayed items and merge more
inode updates.
- If we want to commit transaction, we will deal with all the delayed node.
- the delayed node will be freed when we free the btrfs inode.
- Before we log the inode items, we commit all the directory name index items
