2015-07-04ext4: correctly migrate a file with a hole at the beginningEryu Guan
Currently ext4_ind_migrate() doesn't correctly handle a file which contains a hole at the beginning of the file. This caused the migration to be done incorrectly, and then if there is a subsequent following delayed allocation write to the "hole", this would reclaim the same data blocks again and results in fs corruption. # assmuing 4k block size ext4, with delalloc enabled # skip the first block and write to the second block xfs_io -fc "pwrite 4k 4k" -c "fsync" /mnt/ext4/testfile # converting to indirect-mapped file, which would move the data blocks # to the beginning of the file, but extent status cache still marks # that region as a hole chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile # delayed allocation writes to the "hole", reclaim the same data block # again, results in i_blocks corruption xfs_io -c "pwrite 0 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile umount /mnt/ext4 e2fsck -nf /dev/sda6 ...

2015-07-03ext4: be more strict when migrating to non-extent based fileEryu Guan
Currently the check in ext4_ind_migrate() is not enough before doing the real conversion: a) delayed allocated extents could bypass the check on eh->eh_entries and eh->eh_depth This can be demonstrated by this script xfs_io -fc "pwrite 0 4k" -c "pwrite 8k 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile where testfile has two extents but still be converted to non-extent based file format. b) only extent length is checked but not the offset, which would result in data lose (delalloc) or fs corruption (nodelalloc), because non-extent based file only supports at most (12 + 2^10 + 2^20 + 2^30) blocks This can be demostrated by xfs_io -fc "pwrite 5T 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile sync If delalloc is enabled, dmesg prints EXT4-fs warning (device dm-4): ext4_block_to_path:105: block 1342177280 > max in inode 53 EXT4-fs (dm-4): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 53 at logical offset 1342177280 with max blocks 1 with error 5 EXT4-fs (dm-4): This should not happen!! Data will be lost If delalloc is disabled, e2fsck -nf shows corruption Inode 53, i_size is 5497558142976, should be 4096. Fix? no Fix the two issues by a) forcing all delayed allocation blocks to be allocated before checking eh->eh_depth and eh->eh_entries b) limiting the last logical block of the extent is within direct map Signed-off-by: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

2013-02-08ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start()Theodore Ts'o
So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass context information for logging purposes. The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is: T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter echo 1 > $EVENT/enable ./run-my-fs-benchmark cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms. Having longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an fsync() or an O_SYNC operation. Here is an example line from the trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over 1.2 seconds: postmark-2917 [000] .... 196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32 tid 570 type 2 line_no 2541 interval 311 sync 0 requested_blocks 1 dirtied_blocks 0 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2012-11-28ext4: rationalize ext4_extents.h inclusionTheodore Ts'o
Previously, ext4_extents.h was being included at the end of ext4.h, which was bad for a number of reasons: (a) it was not being included in the expected place, and (b) it caused the header to be included multiple times. There were #ifdef's to prevent this from causing any problems, but it still was unnecessary. By moving the function declarations that were in ext4_extents.h to ext4.h, which is standard practice for where the function declarations for the rest of ext4.h can be found, we can remove ext4_extents.h from being included in ext4.h at all, and then we can only include ext4_extents.h where it is needed in ext4's source files. It should be possible to move a few more things into ext4.h, and further reduce the number of source files that need to #include ext4_extents.h, but that's a cleanup for another day.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from ext4_free_blocks(). This simplifies the code in a large number of places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into a single place. Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the conversion. As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks.

2009-06-13ext4: teach the inode allocator to use a goal inode numberAndreas Dilger
Enhance the inode allocator to take a goal inode number as a paremeter; if it is specified, it takes precedence over Orlov or parent directory inode allocation algorithms. The extents migration function uses the goal inode number so that the extent trees allocated the migration function use the correct flex_bg. In the future, the goal inode functionality will also be used to allocate an adjacent inode for the extended attributes. Also, for testing purposes the goal inode number can be specified via /sys/fs/{dev}/inode_goal. This can be useful for testing inode allocation beyond 2^32 blocks on very large filesystems.

2009-01-07ext4: Allow ext4 to run without a journalFrank Mayhar
A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run without a journal. Since that time I've integrated the excellent comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs. We're currently running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without a journal. It just so happens that running without a journal is slightly faster for most everything. We did iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2 which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens to bypass the page cache. Results: ext2 ext4, default ext4, no journal initial writes 13.0 MB/s 15.4 MB/s 15.7 MB/s rewrites 13.1 MB/s 15.6 MB/s 15.9 MB/s reads 15.2 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s re-reads 15.3 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s random readers 5.6 MB/s 5.6 MB/s 5.7 MB/s random writers 5.1 MB/s 5.3 MB/s 5.4 MB/s So it seems that, so far, this was a useful exercise.

The migrate ioctl writes to the filsystem, so we need to elevate the write count. Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2008-08-19ext4: journal credits reservation fixes for extent file writepageMingming Cao
This patch modified the writepage/write_begin credit calculation for extent files, to use the credits caculation helper function. The current calculation of how many index/leaf blocks should be accounted is too conservetive, it always considered the worse case, where the tree level is 5, and in the case of multiple chunk allocations, it always assumed no blocks were dirtied in common across the allocations. This path uses the accurate depth of the inode with some extras to calculate the index blocks, and also less conservative in the case of multiple allocation accounting.

Move ext4 headers out of include/linux. This is just the trivial move, there's some more thing that could be done later. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2008-04-29ext4: Fix race between migration and mmap writeAneesh Kumar K.V
Fail migrate if we allocated new blocks via mmap write. If we write to holes in the file via mmap, we end up allocating new blocks. This block allocation happens without taking inode->i_mutex. Since migrate is protected by i_mutex and migrate expects that no new blocks get allocated during migrate, fail migrate if new blocks get allocated. We can't take inode->i_mutex in the mmap write path because that would result in a locking order violation between i_mutex and mmap_sem. Also adding a separate rw_sempahore for protection is really high overhead for a rare operation such as migrate.
