Allocations may need to read in block groups from the extent allocation tree, which will require a tree search and take locks on the extent allocation tree. But, those locks might already be held in other places, leading to deadlocks. Since the alloc_mutex serializes everything right now, it is safe to skip the btree locking while caching block groups. A better fix will be to either create a recursive lock or find a way to back off existing locks while caching block groups. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

This allows us to delete an unlinked inode with dirty pages from the list instead of forcing commit to write these out before deleting the inode. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

One lock per btree block can make for significant congestion if everyone has to wait for IO at the high levels of the btree. This drops locks held by a path when doing reads during a tree search. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Extent alloctions are still protected by a large alloc_mutex. Objectid allocations are covered by a objectid mutex Other btree operations are protected by a lock on individual btree nodes Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

The allocation trees and the chunk trees are serialized via their own dedicated mutexes. This means allocation location is still not very fine grained. The main FS btree is protected by locks on each block in the btree. Locks are taken top / down, and as processing finishes on a given level of the tree, the lock is released after locking the lower level. The end result of a search is now a path where only the lowest level is locked. Releasing or freeing the path drops any locks held. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

If a bio submission is after a lock holder waiting for the bio on the work queue, it is possible to deadlock. Move the bios into their own pool. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

mount -o thread_pool_size changes the default, which is min(num_cpus + 2, 8). Larger thread pools would make more sense on very large disk arrays. This mount option controls the max size of each thread pool. There are multiple thread pools, so the total worker count will be larger than the mount option.

This changes the worker thread pool to maintain a list of idle threads, avoiding a complex search for a good thread to wake up. Threads have two states: idle - we try to reuse the last thread used in hopes of improving the batching ratios busy - each time a new work item is added to a busy task, the task is rotated to the end of the line.

max_inline=0 used to force the max_inline size to one sector instead. Now it properly disables inline data items, while still being able to read any that happen to exist on disk. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Btrfs has been using workqueues to spread the checksumming load across other CPUs in the system. But, workqueues only schedule work on the same CPU that queued the work, giving them a limited benefit for systems with higher CPU counts. This code adds a generic facility to schedule work with pools of kthreads, and changes the bio submission code to queue bios up. The queueing is important to make sure large numbers of procs on the system don't turn streaming workloads into random workloads by sending IO down concurrently. The end result of all of this is much higher performance (and CPU usage) when doing checksumming on large machines. Two worker pools are created, one for writes and one for endio processing. The two could deadlock if we tried to service both from a single pool. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Allows to specify one or multiple device=/dev/foo options during mount so that ioctls on the control device can be avoided. Especially useful when trying to mount a multi-device setup as root. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

These ioctls let a user application hold a transaction open while it performs a series of operations. A final ioctl does a sync on the fs (closing the current transaction). This is the main requirement for Ceph's OSD to be able to keep the data it's storing in a btrfs volume consistent, and AFAICS it works just fine. The application would do something like fd = ::open("some/file", O_RDONLY); ::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_START); /* do a bunch of stuff */ ::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_END); or just ::close(fd); And to ensure it commits to disk, ::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_SYNC); When a transaction is held open, the trans_handle is attached to the struct file (via private_data) so that it will get cleaned up if the process dies unexpectedly. A held transaction is also ended on fsync() to avoid a deadlock. A misbehaving application could also deliberately hold a transaction open, effectively locking up the FS, so it may make sense to restrict something like this to root or something.

We need to invalidate an existing dcache entry after creating a new snapshot or subvolume, because a negative dache entry will stop us from accessing the new snapshot or subvolume. --- ctree.h | 23 +++++++++++++++++++++++ inode.c | 4 ++++ transaction.c | 4 ++++ 3 files changed, 31 insertions(+) Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

* Force chunk allocation when find_free_extent has to do a full scan * Record the max key at the start of defrag so it doesn't run forever * Block groups might not be contiguous, make a forward search for the next block group in extent-tree.c * Get rid of extra checks for total fs size * Fix relocate_one_reference to avoid relocating the same file data block twice when referenced by an older transaction * Use the open device count when allocating chunks so that we don't try to allocate from devices that don't exist Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

The extent_io writepage calls needed an extra check for discarding pages that started on th last byte in the file. btrfs_truncate_page needed checks to make sure the page was still part of the file after reading it, and most importantly, needed to wait for all IO to the page to finish before freeing the corresponding extents on disk.

When duplicate copies exist, writes are allowed to fail to one of those copies. This changeset includes a few changes that allow the FS to continue even when some IOs fail. It also adds verification of the parent generation number for btree blocks. This generation is stored in the pointer to a block, and it ensures that missed writes to are detected.
