2014-07-05ext4: disable synchronous transaction batching if max_batch_time==0Eric Sandeen

2013-12-08jbd2: don't BUG but return ENOSPC if a handle runs out of spaceTheodore Ts'o
If a handle runs out of space, we currently stop the kernel with a BUG in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(). This makes it hard to figure out what might be going on. So return an error of ENOSPC, so we can let the file system layer figure out what is going on, to make it more likely we can get useful debugging information). This should make it easier to debug problems such as the one which was reported by: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44731 The only two callers of this function are ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() and ocfs2_journal_dirty(). The ocfs2 function will trigger a BUG_ON(), which means there will be no change in behavior. The ext4 function will call ext4_error_inode() which will print the useful debugging information and then handle the situation using ext4's error handling mechanisms (i.e., which might mean halting the kernel or remounting the file system read-only). Also, since both file systems already call WARN_ON(), drop the WARN_ON from jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() to avoid two stack traces from being displayed.

2013-07-01jbd2: invalidate handle if jbd2_journal_restart() failsTheodore Ts'o

Enforce this with by treating a handle which has a NULL transaction pointer as an aborted handle, and issue a kernel warning if jbd2_journal_extent(), jbd2_journal_get_write_access(), jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), etc. is called with an invalid handle. This commit also fixes a bug where jbd2_journal_stop() would trip over a kernel jbd2 assertion check when trying to free an invalid handle.

2013-07-01jbd2: fix theoretical race in jbd2__journal_restartTheodore Ts'o
Once we decrement transaction->t_updates, if this is the last handle holding the transaction from closing, and once we release the t_handle_lock spinlock, it's possible for the transaction to commit and be released. In practice with normal kernels, this probably won't happen, since the commit happens in a separate kernel thread and it's unlikely this could all happen within the space of a few CPU cycles. On the other hand, with a real-time kernel, this could potentially happen, so save the tid found in transaction->t_tid before we release t_handle_lock. It would require an insane configuration, such as one where the jbd2 thread was set to a very high real-time priority, perhaps because a high priority real-time thread is trying to read or write to a file system. But some people who use real-time kernels have been known to do insane things, including controlling laser-wielding industrial robots. :-) Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

2013-06-04jbd2: transaction reservation supportJan Kara
In some cases we cannot start a transaction because of locking constraints and passing started transaction into those places is not handy either because we could block transaction commit for too long. Transaction reservation is designed to solve these issues. It reserves a handle with given number of credits in the journal and the handle can be later attached to the running transaction without blocking on commit or checkpointing. Reserved handles do not block transaction commit in any way, they only reduce maximum size of the running transaction (because we have to always be prepared to accomodate request for attaching reserved handle).

2013-06-04jbd2: cleanup needed free block estimates when starting a transactionJan Kara
__jbd2_log_space_left() and jbd_space_needed() were kind of odd. jbd_space_needed() accounted also credits needed for currently committing transaction while it didn't account for credits needed for control blocks. __jbd2_log_space_left() then accounted for control blocks as a fraction of free space. Since results of these two functions are always only compared against each other, this works correct but is somewhat strange. Move the estimates so that jbd_space_needed() returns number of blocks needed for a transaction including control blocks and __jbd2_log_space_left() returns free space in the journal (with the committing transaction already subtracted).

2013-06-04jbd2: refine waiting for shadow buffersJan Kara
Currently when we add a buffer to a transaction, we wait until the buffer is removed from BJ_Shadow list (so that we prevent any changes to the buffer that is just written to the journal). This can take unnecessarily long as a lot happens between the time the buffer is submitted to the journal and the time when we remove the buffer from BJ_Shadow list. (e.g. We wait for all data buffers in the transaction, we issue a cache flush, etc.) Also this creates a dependency of do_get_write_access() on transaction commit (namely waiting for data IO to complete) which we want to avoid when implementing transaction reservation. So we modify commit code to set new BH_Shadow flag when temporary shadowing buffer is created and we clear that flag once IO on that buffer is complete. This allows do_get_write_access() to wait only for BH_Shadow bit and thus removes the dependency on data IO completion.

2013-04-21jbd2: trace when lock_buffer in do_get_write_access takes a long timeTheodore Ts'o
While investigating interactivity problems it was clear that processes sometimes stall for long periods of times if an attempt is made to lock a buffer which is undergoing writeback.

2013-04-03ext4/jbd2: don't wait (forever) for stale tid caused by wraparoundTheodore Ts'o
In the case where an inode has a very stale transaction id (tid) in i_datasync_tid or i_sync_tid, it's possible that after a very large (2**31) number of transactions, that the tid number space might wrap, causing tid_geq()'s calculations to fail. Commit deeeaf13 "jbd2: fix fsync() tid wraparound bug", later modified by commit e7b04ac0 "jbd2: don't wake kjournald unnecessarily", attempted to fix this problem, but it only avoided kjournald spinning forever by fixing the logic in jbd2_log_start_commit(). Unfortunately, in the codepaths in fs/ext4/fsync.c and fs/ext4/inode.c that might call jbd2_log_start_commit() with a stale tid, those functions will subsequently call jbd2_log_wait_commit() with the same stale tid, and then wait for a very long time. To fix this, we replace the calls to jbd2_log_start_commit() and jbd2_log_wait_commit() with a call to a new function, jbd2_complete_transaction(), which will correctly handle stale tid's. As a bonus, jbd2_complete_transaction() will avoid locking j_state_lock for writing unless a commit needs to be started. This should have a small (but probably not measurable) improvement for ext4's scalability.

2013-03-11jbd2: fix use after free in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata()Jan Kara
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() didn't get a reference to journal_head it was working with. This is OK in most of the cases since the journal head should be attached to a transaction but in rare occasions when we are journalling data, __ext4_journalled_writepage() can race with jbd2_journal_invalidatepage() stripping buffers from a page and thus journal head can be freed under hands of jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(). Fix the problem by getting own journal head reference in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() (and also in jbd2_journal_set_triggers() which can possibly have the same issue).

2013-02-09jbd2: use module parameters instead of debugfs for jbd_debugTheodore Ts'o
There are multiple reasons to move away from debugfs. First of all, we are only using it for a single parameter, and it is much more complicated to set up (some 30 lines of code compared to 3), and one more thing that might fail while loading the jbd2 module. Secondly, as a module paramter it can be specified as a boot option if jbd2 is built into the kernel, or as a parameter when the module is loaded, and it can also be manipulated dynamically under /sys/module/jbd2/parameters/jbd2_debug. So it is more flexible. Ultimately we want to move away from using jbd_debug() towards tracepoints, but for now this is still a useful simplification of the code base.

2013-02-08jbd2: add tracepoints which provide per-handle statistics Theodore Ts'o
Handles which stay open a long time are problematic when it comes time to close down a transaction so it can be committed.

2013-02-06jbd2: track request delay statisticsTheodore Ts'o
Track the delay between when we first request that the commit begin and when it actually begins, so we can see how much of a gap exists. In theory, this should just be the remaining scheduling quantuum of the thread which requested the commit (assuming it was not a synchronous operation which triggered the commit request) plus scheduling overhead; however, it's possible that real time processes might get in the way of letting the kjournald thread from executing.
