Introduce a new check 'btrfs_compress_is_valid_type()' which not only checks the user-supplied value against known compression types, but also employs checks for too short values.

commit 272e5326c7837697882ce3162029ba893059b616 upstream. The compression property resets to NULL, instead of the old value if we fail to set the new compression parameter. $ btrfs prop get /btrfs compression compression=lzo $ btrfs prop set /btrfs compression zli ERROR: failed to set compression for /btrfs: Invalid argument $ btrfs prop get /btrfs compression This is because the compression property ->validate() is successful for 'zli' as the strncmp() used the length passed from the userspace. Fix it by using the expected string length in strncmp().

2018-05-17btrfs: property: Set incompat flag if lzo/zstd compression is setMisono Tomohiro
Incompat flag of LZO/ZSTD compression should be set at: 1. mount time (-o compress/compress-force) 2. when defrag is done 3. when property is set Currently 3. is missing and this commit adds this. This could lead to a filesystem that uses ZSTD but is not marked as such. If a kernel without a ZSTD support encounteres a ZSTD compressed extent, it will handle that but this could be confusing to the user. Typically the filesystem is mounted with the ZSTD option, but the discrepancy can arise when a filesystem is never mounted with ZSTD and then the property on some file is set (and some new extents are written). A simple mount with -o compress=zstd will fix that up on an unpatched kernel. Same goes for LZO, but this has been around for a very long time (2.6.37) so it's unlikely that a pre-LZO kernel would be used.

2018-03-26btrfs: Remove custom crc32c init codeNikolay Borisov
The custom crc32 init code was introduced in 14a958e678cd ("Btrfs: fix btrfs boot when compiled as built-in") to enable using btrfs as a built-in. However, later as pointed out by 60efa5eb2e88 ("Btrfs: use late_initcall instead of module_init") this wasn't enough and finally btrfs was switched to late_initcall which comes after the generic crc32c implementation is initiliased. The latter commit superseeded the former. Now that we don't have to maintain our own code let's just remove it and switch to using the generic implementation. Despite touching a lot of files the patch is really simple. Here is the gist of the changes: 1. Select LIBCRC32C rather than the low-level modules. 2. s/btrfs_crc32c/crc32c/g 3. replace hash.h with linux/crc32c.h 4. Move the btrfs namehash funcs to ctree.h and change the tree accordingly. I've tested this with btrfs being both a module and a built-in and xfstest doesn't complain. Does seem to fix the longstanding problem of not automatically selectiong the crc32c module when btrfs is used. Possibly there is a workaround in dracut. The modinfo confirms that now all the module dependencies are there: before: depends: zstd_compress,zstd_decompress,raid6_pq,xor,zlib_deflate after: depends: libcrc32c,zstd_compress,zstd_decompress,raid6_pq,xor,zlib_deflate Signed-off-by: Nikolay Borisov <nborisov@suse.com> Reviewed-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> [ add more info to changelog from mails ] Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>

2017-09-14Merge branch 'zstd-minimal' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs Pull zstd support from Chris Mason: "Nick Terrell's patch series to add zstd support to the kernel has been floating around for a while. After talking with Dave Sterba, Herbert and Phillip, we decided to send the whole thing in as one pull request. zstd is a big win in speed over zlib and in compression ratio over lzo, and the compression team here at FB has gotten great results using it in production. Nick will continue to update the kernel side with new improvements from the open source zstd userland code. Nick has a number of benchmarks for the main zstd code in his lib/zstd commit: I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using `silesia.tar` [3], which is 211,988,480 B large. Run the following commands for the benchmark: sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0 sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`. The MB/s is computed with 1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash) which includes the time to copy from userland. The Adjusted MB/s is computed with 1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)). The memory reported is the amount of memory the compressor requests. | Method | Size (B) | Time (s) | Ratio | MB/s | Adj MB/s | Mem (MB) | |----------|----------|----------|-------|---------|----------|----------| | none | 11988480 | 0.100 | 1 | 2119.88 | - | - | | zstd -1 | 73645762 | 1.044 | 2.878 | 203.05 | 224.56 | 1.23 | | zstd -3 | 66988878 | 1.761 | 3.165 | 120.38 | 127.63 | 2.47 | | zstd -5 | 65001259 | 2.563 | 3.261 | 82.71 | 86.07 | 2.86 | | zstd -10 | 60165346 | 13.242 | 3.523 | 16.01 | 16.13 | 13.22 | | zstd -15 | 58009756 | 47.601 | 3.654 | 4.45 | 4.46 | 21.61 | | zstd -19 | 54014593 | 102.835 | 3.925 | 2.06 | 2.06 | 60.15 | | zlib -1 | 77260026 | 2.895 | 2.744 | 73.23 | 75.85 | 0.27 | | zlib -3 | 72972206 | 4.116 | 2.905 | 51.50 | 52.79 | 0.27 | | zlib -6 | 68190360 | 9.633 | 3.109 | 22.01 | 22.24 | 0.27 | | zlib -9 | 67613382 | 22.554 | 3.135 | 9.40 | 9.44 | 0.27 | I benchmarked zstd decompression using the same method on the same machine.

2017-08-16btrfs: prepare for extensions in compression optionsDavid Sterba
This is a minimal patch intended to be backported to older kernels. We're going to extend the string specifying the compression method and this would fail on kernels before that change (the string is compared exactly). Relax the string matching only to the prefix, ie. ignoring anything that goes after "zlib" or "lzo", regardless of th format extension we decide to use. This applies to the mount options and properties. That way, patched old kernels could be booted on systems already utilizing the new compression spec. Applicable since commit 63541927c8d11, v3.14.

2017-08-16btrfs: rename variable holding per-inode compression typeDavid Sterba
This is preparatory for separating inode compression requested by defrag and set via properties. This will fix a usability bug when defrag will reset compression type to NONE. If the file has compression set via property, it will not apply anymore (until next mount or reset through command line). We're going to fix that by adding another variable just for the defrag call and won't touch the property. The defrag will have higher priority when deciding whether to compress the data.

2017-08-15btrfs: Add zstd supportNick Terrell
Add zstd compression and decompression support to BtrFS. zstd at its fastest level compresses almost as well as zlib, while offering much faster compression and decompression, approaching lzo speeds. I benchmarked btrfs with zstd compression against no compression, lzo compression, and zlib compression. I benchmarked two scenarios. Copying a set of files to btrfs, and then reading the files. Copying a tarball to btrfs, extracting it to btrfs, and then reading the extracted files. After every operation, I call `sync` and include the sync time. Between every pair of operations I unmount and remount the filesystem to avoid caching. The benchmark files can be found in the upstream zstd source repository under `contrib/linux-kernel/{btrfs-benchmark.sh,btrfs-extract-benchmark.sh}` [1] [2]. I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. The first compression benchmark is copying 10 copies of the unzipped Silesia corpus [3] into a BtrFS filesystem mounted with `-o compress-force=Method`. The decompression benchmark times how long it takes to `tar` all 10 copies into `/dev/null`. The compression ratio is measured by comparing the output of `df` and `du`. See the benchmark file [1] for details. I benchmarked multiple zstd compression levels, although the patch uses zstd level 1. | Method | Ratio | Compression MB/s | Decompression speed | |---------|-------|------------------|---------------------| | None | 0.99 | 504 | 686 | | lzo | 1.66 | 398 | 442 | | zlib | 2.58 | 65 | 241 | | zstd 1 | 2.57 | 260 | 383 | | zstd 3 | 2.71 | 174 | 408 | | zstd 6 | 2.87 | 70 | 398 | | zstd 9 | 2.92 | 43 | 406 | | zstd 12 | 2.93 | 21 | 408 | | zstd 15 | 3.01 | 11 | 354 | The next benchmark first copies `linux-4.11.6.tar` [4] to btrfs. Then it measures the compression ratio, extracts the tar, and deletes the tar. Then it measures the compression ratio again, and `tar`s the extracted files into `/dev/null`. See the benchmark file [2] for details. | Method | Tar Ratio | Extract Ratio | Copy (s) | Extract (s)| Read (s) | |--------|-----------|---------------|----------|------------|----------| | None | 0.97 | 0.78 | 0.981 | 5.501 | 8.807 | | lzo | 2.06 | 1.38 | 1.631 | 8.458 | 8.585 | | zlib | 3.40 | 1.86 | 7.750 | 21.544 | 11.744 | | zstd 1 | 3.57 | 1.85 | 2.579 | 11.479 | 9.389 | [1] https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/contrib/linux-kernel/btrfs-benchmark.sh [2] https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/contrib/linux-kernel/btrfs-extract-benchmark.sh [3] http://sun.aei.polsl.pl/~sdeor/index.php?page=silesia [4] https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/linux-4.11.6.tar.xz zstd source repository: https://github.com/facebook/zstd Signed-off-by: Nick Terrell <terrelln@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com>

2017-02-14btrfs: Make btrfs_ino take a struct btrfs_inodeNikolay Borisov
Currently btrfs_ino takes a struct inode and this causes a lot of internal btrfs functions which consume this ino to take a VFS inode, rather than btrfs' own struct btrfs_inode. In order to fix this "leak" of VFS structs into the internals of btrfs first it's necessary to eliminate all uses of struct inode for the purpose of inode. This patch does that by using BTRFS_I to convert an inode to btrfs_inode. With this problem eliminated subsequent patches will start eliminating the passing of struct inode altogether, eventually resulting in a lot cleaner code.

2016-12-06btrfs: take an fs_info directly when the root is not used otherwiseJeff Mahoney
There are loads of functions in btrfs that accept a root parameter but only use it to obtain an fs_info pointer. Let's convert those to just accept an fs_info pointer directly. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>

2016-07-26btrfs: simpilify btrfs_subvol_inherit_propsJeff Mahoney
We just need a superblock, but we look it up using two different roots depending on the call site. Let's just use a superblock pointer initialized at the outset. This is mostly for Coccinelle not to choke on my root push up set. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>

2015-10-21btrfs: cleanup iterating over prop_handlers arrayByongho Lee
This patch eliminates the last item of prop_handlers array which is used to check end of array and instead uses ARRAY_SIZE macro. Though this is a very tiny optimization, using ARRAY_SIZE macro is a good practice to iterate array.

There are some op tables that can be easily made const, similarly the sysfs feature and raid tables. This is motivated by PaX CONSTIFY plugin. Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.cz>
2014-01-28Btrfs: add support for inode propertiesFilipe David Borba Manana
This change adds infrastructure to allow for generic properties for inodes. Properties are name/value pairs that can be associated with inodes for different purposes. They are stored as xattrs with the prefix "btrfs." Properties can be inherited - this means when a directory inode has inheritable properties set, these are added to new inodes created under that directory. Further, subvolumes can also have properties associated with them, and they can be inherited from their parent subvolume. Naturally, directory properties have priority over subvolume properties (in practice a subvolume property is just a regular property associated with the root inode, objectid 256, of the subvolume's fs tree). This change also adds one specific property implementation, named "compression", whose values can be "lzo" or "zlib" and it's an inheritable property. The corresponding changes to btrfs-progs were also implemented. A patch with xfstests for this feature will follow once there's agreement on this change/feature. Further, the script at the bottom of this commit message was used to do some benchmarks to measure any performance penalties of this feature. Basically the tests correspond to: Test 1 - create a filesystem and mount it with compress-force=lzo, then sequentially create N files of 64Kb each, measure how long it took to create the files, unmount the filesystem, mount the filesystem and perform an 'ls -lha' against the test directory holding the N files, and report the time the command took. Test 2 - create a filesystem and don't use any compression option when mounting it - instead set the compression property of the subvolume's root to 'lzo'. Then create N files of 64Kb, and report the time it took. The unmount the filesystem, mount it again and perform an 'ls -lha' like in the former test. This means every single file ends up with a property (xattr) associated to it. Test 3 - same as test 2, but uses 4 properties - 3 are duplicates of the compression property, have no real effect other than adding more work when inheriting properties and taking more btree leaf space. Test 4 - same as test 3 but with 10 properties per file. Results (in seconds, and averages of 5 runs each), for different N numbers of files follow. * Without properties (test 1) file creation time ls -lha time 10 000 files 3.49 0.76 100 000 files 47.19 8.37 1 000 000 files 518.51 107.06 * With 1 property (compression property set to lzo - test 2) file creation time ls -lha time 10 000 files 3.63 0.93 100 000 files 48.56 9.74 1 000 000 files 537.72 125.11 * With 4 properties (test 3) file creation time ls -lha time 10 000 files 3.94 1.20 100 000 files 52.14 11.48 1 000 000 files 572.70 142.13 * With 10 properties (test 4) file creation time ls -lha time 10 000 files 4.61 1.35 100 000 files 58.86 13.83 1 000 000 files 656.01 177.61 The increased latencies with properties are essencialy because of: *) When creating an inode, we now synchronously write 1 more item (an xattr item) for each property inherited from the parent dir (or subvolume). This could be done in an asynchronous way such as we do for dir intex items (delayed-inode.c), which could help reduce the file creation latency; *) With properties, we now have larger fs trees. For this particular test each xattr item uses 75 bytes of leaf space in the fs tree. This could be less by using a new item for xattr items, instead of the current btrfs_dir_item, since we could cut the 'location' and 'type' fields (saving 18 bytes) and maybe 'transid' too (saving a total of 26 bytes per xattr item) from the btrfs_dir_item type. Also tried batching the xattr insertions (ignoring proper hash collision handling, since it didn't exist) when creating files that inherit properties from their parent inode/subvolume, but the end results were (surprisingly) essentially the same.
