This patch makes us a bit less zealous about making sure we have enough free
metadata space by pearing down the size of new metadata chunks to 256mb instead
of 1gb. Also, we used to try an allocate metadata chunks when allocating data,
but that sort of thing is done elsewhere now so we can just remove it. With my
-ENOSPC test I used to have 3gb reserved for metadata out of 75gb, now I have
1.7gb. Thanks,

While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until
Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems,
since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the
great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC" comment. This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC
semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC
patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly
simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to
vfs_fsync_range and when not.
This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's
numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC
flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to
both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make
sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers.
This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can
just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only
places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and
network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the
full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for
lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe.
We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path
to make sure we always get these sane options.
Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a
O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for
the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional
O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

There is a problem where iget5_locked will look for an inode, not find it, and
then subsequently try to allocate it. Another CPU will have raced in and
allocated the inode instead, so when iget5_locked gets the inode spin lock again
and does a search, it finds the new inode. So it goes ahead and calls
destroy_inode on the inode it just allocated. The problem is we don't set
BTRFS_I(inode)->root until the new inode is completely initialized. This patch
makes us set root to NULL when alloc'ing a new inode, so when we get to
btrfs_destroy_inode and we see that root is NULL we can just free up the memory
and continue on. This fixes the panic

On an FS where all of the space has not been allocated into chunks yet,
the enospc can return enospc just because the existing metadata chunks
are full.
We get around this by allowing more metadata chunks to be allocated up
to a certain limit, and finding the right limit is a little fuzzy. The
problem is the reservations for delalloc would preallocate way too much
of the FS as metadata. We need to start saying no and just force some
IO to happen.
But we also need to let a reasonable amount of the FS become metadata.
This bumps the hard limit up, later releases will have a better system.

Currently compressed IO does not deal with not having its entire extent able to
be allocated. So if we have enough free space to allocate for the extent, but
its not contiguous, it will fail spectacularly. This patch fixes this by
falling back on uncompressed IO which lets us spread the delalloc extent across
multiple extents. I tested this by making us randomly think the reservation had
failed to make it fallback on the uncompressed io way and it seemed to work
fine. Thanks,

This patch changes a few things. Hopefully the comments are helpfull, but
I'll try and be as verbose here.
Problem:
My fedora box was taking 1 minute and 21 seconds to boot with btrfs as root.
Part of this problem was we pick the first block group we can find and start
caching it, even if it may not have enough free space. The other problem is
we only search for cached block groups the first time around, which we won't
find any cached block groups because this is a newly mounted fs, so we end up
caching several block groups during bootup, which with alot of fragmentation
takes around 30-45 seconds to complete, which bogs down the system. So
Solution:
1) Don't cache block groups willy-nilly at first. Instead try and figure out
which block group has the most free, and therefore will take the least amount
of time to cache.
2) Don't be so picky about cached block groups. The other problem is once
we've filled up a cluster, if the block group isn't finished caching the next
time we try and do the allocation we'll completely ignore the cluster and
start searching from the beginning of the space, which makes us cache more
block groups, which slows us down even more. So instead of skipping block
groups that are not finished caching when we have a hint, only skip the block
group if it hasn't started caching yet.
There is one other tweak in here. Before if we allocated a chunk and still
couldn't find new space, we'd end up switching the space info to force another
chunk allocation. This could make us end up with way too many chunks, so keep
track of this particular case.
With this patch and my previous cluster fixes my fedora box now boots in 43
seconds, and according to the bootchart is not held up by our block group
caching at all.

could return with a max_size set to 0, which will mean the next time we try to

Syncing the tree log is a 3 phase operation.
1) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for a given root.
2) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for the
tree of tree log roots.
3) write and wait for the super blocks (barriers here)
This isn't as efficient as it could be because there is
no requirement to wait for the blocks from step one to hit the disk
before we start writing the blocks from step two. This commit
changes the sequence so that we don't start waiting until
all the tree blocks from both steps one and two have been sent
to disk.

rpm has a habit of running fdatasync when the file hasn't
changed. We already detect if a file hasn't been changed
in the current transaction but it might have been sent to
the tree-log in this transaction and not changed since
the last call to fsync.
In this case, we want to avoid a tree log sync, which includes
a number of synchronous writes and barriers. This commit
extends the existing tracking of the last transaction to change
a file to also track the last sub-transaction.

This patch fixes an issue with the delalloc metadata space reservation
code. The problem is we used to free the reservation as soon as we
allocated the delalloc region. The problem with this is if we are not
inserting an inline extent, we don't actually insert the extent item until
after the ordered extent is written out. This patch does 3 things,
1) It moves the reservation clearing stuff into the ordered code, so when
we remove the ordered extent we remove the reservation.
2) It adds a EXTENT_DO_ACCOUNTING flag that gets passed when we clear
delalloc bits in the cases where we want to clear the metadata reservation
when we clear the delalloc extent, in the case that we do an inline extent
or we invalidate the page.
3) It adds another waitqueue to the space info so that when we start a fs
wide delalloc flush, anybody else who also hits that area will simply wait
for the flush to finish and then try to make their allocation.
This has been tested thoroughly to make sure we did not regress on
performance.

When compression is on, the cow_file_range code is farmed off to

But it is a delicate balance around when we clear flags and how. In
the past we cleared the delalloc flag immediately, which was safe
because the pages stayed locked.

Like the cluster allocating stuff, we can lockup the box with the normal
allocation path. This happens when we
1) Start to cache a block group that is severely fragmented, but has a decent
amount of free space.
2) Start to commit a transaction
3) Have the commit try and empty out some of the delalloc inodes with extents
that are relatively large.
The inodes will not be able to make the allocations because they will ask for
allocations larger than a contiguous area in the free space cache. So we will
wait for more progress to be made on the block group, but since we're in a
commit the caching kthread won't make any more progress and it already has
enough free space that wait_block_group_cache_progress will just return. So,
if we wait and fail to make the allocation the next time around, just loop and
go to the next block group. This keeps us from getting stuck in a softlockup.

The btrfs async worker threads are used for a wide variety of things,
including processing bio end_io functions. This means that when
the endio threads aren't running, the rest of the FS isn't
able to do the final processing required to clear PageWriteback.
The endio threads also try to exit as they become idle and
start more as the work piles up. The problem is that starting more
threads means kthreadd may need to allocate ram, and that allocation
may wait until the global number of writeback pages on the system is
below a certain limit.
The result of that throttling is that end IO threads wait on
kthreadd, who is waiting on IO to end, which will never happen.
This commit fixes the deadlock by handing off thread startup to a
dedicated thread. It also fixes a bug where the on-demand thread
creation was creating far too many threads because it didn't take into
account threads being started by other procs.

At the start of a transaction we do a btrfs_reserve_metadata_space() and
specify how many items we plan on modifying. Then once we've done our
modifications and such, just call btrfs_unreserve_metadata_space() for
the same number of items we reserved.
For keeping track of metadata needed for data I've had to add an extent_io op
for when we merge extents. This lets us track space properly when we are doing
sequential writes, so we don't end up reserving way more metadata space than
what we need.
The only place where the metadata space accounting is not done is in the
relocation code. This is because Yan is going to be reworking that code in the
near future, so running btrfs-vol -b could still possibly result in a ENOSPC
related panic. This patch also turns off the metadata_ratio stuff in order to
allow users to more efficiently use their disk space.
This patch makes it so we track how much metadata we need for an inode's
delayed allocation extents by tracking how many extents are currently
waiting for allocation. It introduces two new callbacks for the
extent_io tree's, merge_extent_hook and split_extent_hook. These help
us keep track of when we merge delalloc extents together and split them
up. Reservations are handled prior to any actually dirty'ing occurs,
and then we unreserve after we dirty.
btrfs_unreserve_metadata_for_delalloc() will make the appropriate
unreservations as needed based on the number of reservations we
currently have and the number of extents we currently have. Doing the
reservation outside of doing any of the actual dirty'ing lets us do
things like filemap_flush() the inode to try and force delalloc to
happen, or as a last resort actually start allocation on all delalloc
inodes in the fs. This has survived dbench, fs_mark and an fsx torture
test.

During releasepage, we try to drop any extent_state structs for the
bye offsets of the page we're releaseing. But the code was incorrectly
telling clear_extent_bit to delete the state struct unconditionallly.
Normally this would be fine because we have the page locked, but other
parts of btrfs will lock down an entire extent, the most common place
being IO completion.
releasepage was deleting the extent state without first locking the extent,
which may result in removing a state struct that another process had
locked down. The fix here is to leave the NODATASUM and EXTENT_LOCKED
bits alone in releasepage.

Both set and clear_extent_bit allow passing a cached

was improperly bypassing some of the checks around making sure
the extent state fields were correct for a given operation.
The fix used here (from Yan Zheng) is to use the hit_next
goto target instead of jumping all the way down to start clearing
bits without making sure the cached state was exactly correct
for the operation we were doing.
This also fixes up the setting of the start variable for both
ops in the case where we find an overlapping extent that
begins before the range we want to change. In both cases
we were incorrectly going backwards from the original

fragment the free space so badly that we end up using all bitmaps to describe
the free space, use all the free space which would result in the bitmaps being
freed, but then go to add free space again as we delete things and immediately
add bitmaps since the extent threshold would still be 0. Now as we free
bitmaps the extent threshold will be ratcheted up to allow more extent entries

The box can get locked up in the allocator if we happen upon a block group
under these conditions:
1) During a commit, so caching threads cannot make progress
2) Our block group currently is in the middle of being cached
3) Our block group currently has plenty of free space in it
4) Our block group is so fragmented that it ends up having no free space chunks
larger than min_bytes calculated by btrfs_find_space_cluster.
What happens is we try and do btrfs_find_space_cluster, which fails because it
is unable to find enough free space chunks that are large than min_bytes and
are close enough together. Since the block group is not cached we do a
wait_block_group_cache_progress, which waits for the number of bytes we need,
except the block group already has _plenty_ of free space, its just severely
fragmented, so we loop and try again, ad infinitum. This patch keeps us from
waiting on the block group to finish caching if we failed to find a free space
cluster before. It also makes sure that we don't even try to find a free space
cluster if we are on our last loop in the allocator, since we will have tried
everything at this point at it is futile.

move the data nor room to allocate new chunks, we will panic. Change this by
checking to see if we have room to move this chunk around, and if not, return
-ENOSPC and move on to the next chunk. This will make sure we remove block
groups that are moveable, like if we have alot of empty metadata block groups,
and then that way we make room to be able to balance our data chunks as well.

called subvolA, subvolA can be accessed through both the original

The aim of this patch is enforcing there is only one access point to
each subvolume. Only the first directory entry (the one added when
the subvolume/snapshot was created) is treated as valid access point.
The first directory entry is distinguished by checking root forward
reference. If the corresponding root forward reference is missing,

Second, save when snapshot was created in root_key.offset. we can compare block

snapshot can't be the tree block's owner. So we can avoid reading the block.

When btrfs fills a delayed allocation, it tries to increase
the wbc nr_to_write to cover a big part of allocation. The
theory is that we're doing contiguous IO and writing a few
more blocks will save seeks overall at a very low cost.
The problem is that extent_write_cache_pages could ignore
the new higher nr_to_write if nr_to_write had already gone
down to zero. We fix that by rechecking the nr_to_write
for every page that is processed in the pagevec.
This updates the math around bumping the nr_to_write value
to make sure we don't leave a tiny amount of IO hanging
around for the very end of a new extent.

This patch gets rid of two limitations of async block group caching.

This patch introduces a data structure to track the progress of
caching. Base on the caching progress, we know which extents should

The logged file extents are also handled in a similar way.
This patch also changes how pinned extents are tracked. The old
code uses one tree to track pinned extents, and copy the pinned
extents tree at transaction commit time. This patch makes it use

When btrfs_get_extent is reading inline file items for readpage,
it needs to copy the inline extent into the page. If the
inline extent doesn't cover all of the page, that means there
is a hole in the file, or that our file is smaller than one
page.
readpage does zeroing for the case where the file is smaller than one

Data COW means that whenever we write to a file, we replace any old
extent pointers with new ones. There was a window where a readpage
might find the old extent pointers on disk and cache them in the
extent_map tree in ram in the middle of a given write replacing them.
Even though both the readpage and the write had their respective bytes
in the file locked, the extent readpage inserts may cover more bytes than
it had locked down.
This commit closes the race by keeping the new extent pinned in the extent
map tree until after the on-disk btree is properly setup with the new
extent pointers.

Btrfs writes go through delalloc to the data=ordered code. This
makes sure that all of the data is on disk before the metadata
that references it. The tracking means that we have to make sure
each page in an extent is fully written before we add that extent into
the on-disk btree.
This was done in the past by setting the EXTENT_ORDERED bit for the
range of an extent when it was added to the data=ordered code, and then
clearing the EXTENT_ORDERED bit in the extent state tree as each page
finished IO.
One of the reasons we had to do this was because sometimes pages are
magically dirtied without page_mkwrite being called. The EXTENT_ORDERED
bit is checked at writepage time, and if it isn't there, our page become
dirty without going through the proper path.
These bit operations make for a number of rbtree searches for each page,
and can cause considerable lock contention.
This commit switches from the EXTENT_ORDERED bit to use PagePrivate2.
As pages go into the ordered code, PagePrivate2 is set on each one.
This is a cheap operation because we already have all the pages locked
and ready to go.
As IO finishes, the PagePrivate2 bit is cleared and the ordered
accoutning is updated for each page.
At writepage time, if the PagePrivate2 bit is missing, we go into the
writepage fixup code to handle improperly dirtied pages.

Many of the btrfs extent state tree users follow the same pattern.
They lock an extent range in the tree, do some operation and then
unlock.
This translates to at least 2 rbtree searches, and maybe more if they
are doing operations on the extent state tree. A locked extent
in the tree isn't going to be merged or changed, and so we can
safely return the extent state structure as a cached handle.

Btrfs is currently mirroring some of the page state bits into
its extent state tree. The goal behind this was to use it in supporting
blocksizes other than the page size.
But, we don't currently support that, and we're using quite a lot of CPU
on the rb tree and its spin lock. This commit starts a series of
cleanups to reduce the amount of work done in the extent state tree as
part of each IO.
This commit:
* Adds the ability to lock an extent in the state tree and also set
other bits. The idea is to do locking and delalloc in one call
* Removes the EXTENT_WRITEBACK and EXTENT_DIRTY bits. Btrfs is using
a combination of the page bits and the ordered write code for this
instead.

As the extent state tree is manipulated, there are call backs
that are used to take extra actions when different state bits are set
or cleared. One example of this is a counter for the total number
of delayed allocation bytes in a single inode and in the whole FS.
When new states are inserted, this callback is being done before we
properly setup the new state. This hasn't caused problems before
because the lock bit was always done first, and the existing call backs
don't care about the lock bit.
This patch makes sure the state is properly setup before using the
callback, which is important for later optimizations that do more work
without using the lock bit.

There are two main users of the extent_map tree. The
first is regular file inodes, where it is evenly spread
between readers and writers.
The second is the chunk allocation tree, which maps blocks from
logical addresses to phyiscal ones, and it is 99.99% reads.

The btrfs io submission thread tries to back off congested devices in
favor of rotating off to another disk.
But, it tries to make sure it submits at least some IO before rotating
on (the others may be congested too), and so it has a magic number of
requests it tries to write before it hops.
This makes the magic number smaller. Testing shows that we're spending
too much time on congested devices and leaving the other devices idle.

When btrfs fills a large delayed allocation extent, it is a good idea

The btrfs worker thread spinlock was being used both for the
queueing of IO and for the processing of ordered events.
The ordered events never happen from end_io handlers, and so they
don't need to use the _irq version of spinlocks. This adds a
dedicated lock to the ordered lists so they don't have to run
with irqs off.

The async caching thread can end up looping forever if a given
search puts it at the last key in a leaf. It will end up calling
btrfs_next_leaf and then checking if it needs to politely drop
the read semaphore.
Most of the time this looping isn't noticed because it is able to
make progress the next time around. But, during log replay,
we wait on the async caching thread to finish, and the async thread
is waiting on the commit, and no progress is really made.
The fix used here is to copy the key out of the next leaf,
that way our search lands there properly.

Yan Zheng hit a problem where we tried to remove some free space but failed
because we couldn't find the free space entry. This is because the free space
was held within a bitmap that had a starting offset well before the actual
offset of the free space, and there were free space extents that were in the
same range as that offset, so tree_search_offset returned with NULL because we
couldn't find a free space extent that had that offset. This is fixed by
making sure that if we fail to find the entry, we re-search again with
bitmap_only set to 1 and do an offset_to_bitmap so we can get the appropriate
bitmap. A similar problem happens in btrfs_alloc_from_bitmap for the
clustering code, but that is not as bad since we will just go and redo our
cluster allocation.
Also this adds some debugging checks to make sure that the free space we are
trying to remove from the bitmap is in fact there. This can probably go away
after a while, but since this code is only used by the tree-logging stuff it
would be nice to run with it for a while to make sure there are no problems.

The async block group caching code uses the commit_root pointer
to get a stable version of the extent allocation tree for scanning.
This copy of the tree root isn't going to change and it significantly
reduces the complexity of the scanning code.
During a commit, we have a loop where we update the extent allocation
tree root. We need to loop because updating the root pointer in
the tree of tree roots may allocate blocks which may change the
extent allocation tree.
Right now the commit_root pointer is changed inside this loop. It
is more correct to change the commit_root pointer only after all the
looping is done.

We are racy with async block caching and unpinning extents. This patch makes
things much less complicated by only unpinning the extent if the block group is
cached. We check the block_group->cached var under the block_group->lock spin
lock. If it is set to BTRFS_CACHE_FINISHED then we update the pinned counters,
and unpin the extent and add the free space back. If it is not set to this, we
start the caching of the block group so the next time we unpin extents we can
unpin the extent. This keeps us from racing with the async caching threads,
lets us kill the fs wide async thread counter, and keeps us from having to set
DELALLOC bits for every extent we hit if there are caching kthreads going.
One thing that needed to be changed was btrfs_free_super_mirror_extents. Now
instead of just looking for LOCKED extents, we also look for DIRTY extents,
since we could have left some extents pinned in the previous transaction that
will never get freed now that we are unmounting, which would cause us to leak
memory. So btrfs_free_super_mirror_extents has been changed to
btrfs_free_pinned_extents, and it will clear the extents locked for the super
mirror, and any remaining pinned extents that may be present. Thank you,

Allocating new block group is easy when the disk has plenty of space.
But things get difficult as the disk fills up, especially if
the FS has been run through btrfs-vol -b. The balance operation
is likely to make the total bytes available on the device greater
than the largest extent we'll actually be able to allocate.
But the device extent allocation code incorrectly assumes that a device
with 5G free will be able to allocate a 5G extent. It isn't normally a
problem because device extents don't get freed unless btrfs-vol -b
is run.
This fixes the device extent allocator to remember the largest free
extent it can find, and then uses that value as a fallback.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
Btrfs allocates individual extents from block groups, and each
block group has a specific type. It may hold metadata, data
mirrored or striped etc.
When we balance space (btrfs-vol -b) or remove a drive (btrfs-vol -r)
we free block groups. Once a block group is freed, the space it was
using on the device may be available for use by new block groups.
btrfs_remove_block_group was clearing the flag that said
'our devices are full, don't even try to allocate new block groups',
but it was only clearing that flag for a specific type of block group.
This commit clears the full flag for all of the types of block groups,
making it much more likely that we'll be able to balance space when
the drive is close to full.

This patch moves the caching of the block group off to a kthread in order to
allow people to allocate sooner. Instead of blocking up behind the caching
mutex, we instead kick of the caching kthread, and then attempt to make an
allocation. If we cannot, we wait on the block groups caching waitqueue, which
the caching kthread will wake the waiting threads up everytime it finds 2 meg
worth of space, and then again when its finished caching. This is how I tested
the speedup from this
mkfs the disk
mount the disk
fill the disk up with fs_mark
unmount the disk
mount the disk
time touch /mnt/foo
Without my changes this took 11 seconds on my box, with these changes it now
takes 1 second.
Another change thats been put in place is we lock the super mirror's in the
pinned extent map in order to keep us from adding that stuff as free space when
caching the block group. This doesn't really change anything else as far as the
pinned extent map is concerned, since for actual pinned extents we use
EXTENT_DIRTY, but it does mean that when we unmount we have to go in and unlock
those extents to keep from leaking memory.
I've also added a check where when we are reading block groups from disk, if the
amount of space used == the size of the block group, we go ahead and mark the
block group as cached. This drastically reduces the amount of time it takes to
cache the block groups. Using the same test as above, except doing a dd to a
file and then unmounting, it used to take 33 seconds to umount, now it takes 3
seconds.
This version uses the commit_root in the caching kthread, and then keeps track
of how many async caching threads are running at any given time so if one of the
async threads is still running as we cross transactions we can wait until its
finished before handling the pinned extents. Thank you,

Currently btrfs has a problem where it can use a ridiculous amount of RAM simply
tracking free space. As free space gets fragmented, we end up with thousands of
entries on an rb-tree per block group, which usually spans 1 gig of area. Since
we currently don't ever flush free space cache back to disk this gets to be a
bit unweildly on large fs's with lots of fragmentation.
This patch solves this problem by using PAGE_SIZE bitmaps for parts of the free
space cache. Initially we calculate a threshold of extent entries we can
handle, which is however many extent entries we can cram into 16k of ram. The
maximum amount of RAM that should ever be used to track 1 gigabyte of diskspace
will be 32k of RAM, which scales much better than we did before.
Once we pass the extent threshold, we start adding bitmaps and using those
instead for tracking the free space. This patch also makes it so that any free
space thats less than 4 * sectorsize we go ahead and put into a bitmap. This is
nice since we try and allocate out of the front of a block group, so if the
front of a block group is heavily fragmented and then has a huge chunk of free
space at the end, we go ahead and add the fragmented areas to bitmaps and use a
normal extent entry to track the big chunk at the back of the block group.
I've also taken the opportunity to revamp how we search for free space.
Previously we indexed free space via an offset indexed rb tree and a bytes
indexed rb tree. I've dropped the bytes indexed rb tree and use only the offset
indexed rb tree. This cuts the number of tree operations we were doing
previously down by half, and gives us a little bit of a better allocation
pattern since we will always start from a specific offset and search forward
from there, instead of searching for the size we need and try and get it as
close as possible to the offset we want.
I've given this a healthy amount of testing pre-new format stuff, as well as
post-new format stuff. I've booted up my fedora box which is installed on btrfs
with this patch and ran with it for a few days without issues. I've not seen
any performance regressions in any of my tests.
Since the last patch Yan Zheng fixed a problem where we could have overlapping
entries, so updating their offset inline would cause problems. Thanks,

It was never actually doing anything anyway (see the loop condition),
and it would be difficult to make it work for RAID[56].
Even if it was actually working, it's checking for the wrong thing
anyway. Instead of checking whether we list a block which _doesn't_ land
at the relevant physical location, it should be checking that we _have_
listed all the logical blocks which refer to the required physical
location on all devices.
This function is only called from remove_sb_from_cache() to ensure that
we reserve the logical blocks which would reside at the same physical
location as the superblock copies. So listing more blocks than we need
is actually OK.
With RAID[56] we're going to throw away an entire stripe for each block

an oops if the VM manages to free the buffers in the middle of the sync.
This fixes that assumption and updates the code to return an error if things

On multi-device filesystems, btrfs writes supers to all of the devices
before considering a sync complete. There wasn't any additional
locking between super writeout and the device list management code
because device management was done inside a transaction and
super writeout only happened with no transation writers running.
With the btrfs fsync log and other async transaction updates, this
has been racey for some time. This adds a mutex to protect
the device list. The existing volume mutex could not be reused due to
transaction lock ordering requirements.

The btrfs IO submission threads try to service a bunch of devices with a small
number of threads. They do a congestion check to try and avoid waiting
on requests for a busy device.
The checks make sure we've sent a few requests down to a given device just so
that we aren't bouncing between busy devices without actually sending down
any IO. The counter used to decide if we can switch to the next device
is somewhat overloaded. It is also being used to decide if we've done
a good batch of requests between the WRITE_SYNC or regular priority lists.
It may get reset to zero often, leaving us hammering on a busy device
instead of moving on to another disk.
This commit adds a new counter for the number of bios sent while
servicing a device. It doesn't get reset or fiddled with. On
multi-device filesystems, this fixes IO stalls in streaming
write workloads.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
Btrfs uses dedicated threads to submit bios when checksumming is on,
which allows us to make sure the threads dedicated to checksumming don't get
stuck waiting for requests. For each btrfs device, there are
two lists of bios. One list is for WRITE_SYNC bios and the other
is for regular priority bios.
The IO submission threads used to process all of the WRITE_SYNC bios first and
then switch to the regular bios. This commit makes sure we don't completely
starve the regular bios by rotating between the two lists.
WRITE_SYNC bios are still favored 2:1 over the regular bios, and this tries
to run in batches to avoid seeking. Benchmarking shows this eliminates
stalls during streaming buffered writes on both multi-device and
single device filesystems.
If the regular bios starve, the system can end up with a large amount of ram
pinned down in writeback pages. If we are a little more fair between the two
classes, we're able to keep throughput up and make progress on the bulk of
our dirty ram.

With the new back reference code, the cost of a balance has gone down

Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
When the delayed reference code was added, some checks were added
to avoid extra balancing while the delayed references were being flushed.
This made for less efficient btrees, but it reduced the chances of
loops where no forward progress was made because the balances made
more delayed ref updates.
With the new dead root removal code and the mixed back references,
the extent allocation tree is no longer using precise back refs, and
the delayed reference updates don't carry the risk of looping forever
anymore. So, the balance avoidance is no longer required.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata.
Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER
BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS.
When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all
extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time,
the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure,
and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts
and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0.
The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out,
and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that
are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the
transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records.
When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the
new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference
count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents
the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by
one.
This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference
counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd.
But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block.
This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref
item.
We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new
back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which
tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer
by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it
only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees.
This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these
fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow.
The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common
case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root,
and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference
on a given block.
This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached
inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached
inodes whose inode numbers within a given range.
This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data
structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one
is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are
referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref.
The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large
number of snapshots.
This is a very large commit and was written in a number of
pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were
squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a
bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

Btrfs: Fix oops and use after free during space balancing
Btrfs: set device->total_disk_bytes when adding new device
The btrfs allocator uses list_for_each to walk the available block
groups when searching for free blocks. It starts off with a hint
to help find the best block group for a given allocation.
The hint is resolved into a block group, but we don't properly check
to make sure the block group we find isn't in the middle of being
freed due to filesystem shrinking or balancing. If it is being
freed, the list pointers in it are bogus and can't be trusted. But,
the code happily goes along and uses them in the list_for_each loop,
leading to all kinds of fun.
The fix used here is to check to make sure the block group we find really
is on the list before we use it. list_del_init is used when removing
it from the list, so we can do a proper check.
The allocation clustering code has a similar bug where it will trust
the block group in the current free space cluster. If our allocation
flags have changed (going from single spindle dup to raid1 for example)
because the drives in the FS have changed, we're not allowed to use
the old block group any more.
The fix used here is to check the current cluster against the
current allocation flags.

After a transaction commit, the old root of the subvol btrees are sent through

Snapshot deletion will pause when a transaction commit has started, which
helps to avoid a huge amount of delayed reference count updates piling up
as the transaction is trying to close.
But, this pause happens after the snapshot deletion process has asked other
procs on the system to throttle back a bit so that it can make progress.

Btrfs fallocate was incorrectly starting a transaction with a lock held

Btrfs is using WRITE_SYNC_PLUG to send down synchronous IOs with a
higher priority. But, the checksumming helper threads prevent it
from being fully effective.
There are two problems. First, a big queue of pending checksumming
will delay the synchronous IO behind other lower priority writes. Second,
the checksumming uses an ordered async work queue. The ordering makes sure
that IOs are sent to the block layer in the same order they are sent
to the checksumming threads. Usually this gives us less seeky IO.
But, when we start mixing IO priorities, the lower priority IO can delay
the higher priority IO.
This patch solves both problems by adding a high priority list to the async
helper threads, and a new btrfs_set_work_high_prio(), which is used
to make put a new async work item onto the higher priority list.
The ordering is still done on high priority IO, but all of the high
priority bios are ordered separately from the low priority bios. This
ordering is purely an IO optimization, it is not involved in data
or metadata integrity.

Part of reducing fsync/O_SYNC/O_DIRECT latencies is using WRITE_SYNC for
writes we plan on waiting on in the near future. This patch
mirrors recent changes in other filesystems and the generic code to
use WRITE_SYNC when WB_SYNC_ALL is passed and to use WRITE_SYNC for
other latency critical writes.
Btrfs uses async worker threads for checksumming before the write is done,
and then again to actually submit the bios. The bio submission code just
runs a per-device list of bios that need to be sent down the pipe.
This list is split into low priority and high priority lists so the
WRITE_SYNC IO happens first.

Because btrfs is copy-on-write, we end up picking new locations for
blocks very often. This makes it fairly difficult to maintain perfect
read patterns over time, but we can at least do some optimizations
for writes.
This is done today by remembering the last place we allocated and
trying to find a free space hole big enough to hold more than just one
allocation. The end result is that we tend to write sequentially to
the drive.
This happens all the time for metadata and it happens for data
when mounted -o ssd. But, the way we record it is fairly racey
and it tends to fragment the free space over time because we are trying
to allocate fairly large areas at once.
This commit gets rid of the races by adding a free space cluster object
with dedicated locking to make sure that only one process at a time
is out replacing the cluster.
The free space fragmentation is somewhat solved by allowing a cluster
to be comprised of smaller free space extents. This part definitely
adds some CPU time to the cluster allocations, but it allows the allocator
to consume the small holes left behind by cow.
