xfs: event tracing support Convert the old xfs tracing support that could only be used with the out of tree kdb and xfsidbg patches to use the generic event tracer. To use it make sure CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is enabled and then enable all xfs trace channels by: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/enable or alternatively enable single events by just doing the same in one event subdirectory, e.g. echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/xfs_ihold/enable or set more complex filters, etc. In Documentation/trace/events.txt all this is desctribed in more detail. To reads the events do a cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter, allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various spots in XFS. Take a look at http://lwn.net/Articles/346470/ for some examples. Also the btree tracing isn't included at all yet, as it will require additional core tracing features not in mainline yet, I plan to deliver it later. And the really nice thing about this patch is that it actually removes many lines of code while adding this nice functionality: fs/xfs/Makefile | 8 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_acl.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_aops.c | 52 - fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_aops.h | 2 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_buf.c | 117 +-- fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_buf.h | 33 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_fs_subr.c | 3 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_ioctl.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_ioctl32.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_iops.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_linux.h | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_lrw.c | 87 -- fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_lrw.h | 45 - fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_super.c | 104 --- fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_super.h | 7 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_sync.c | 1 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_trace.c | 75 ++ fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_trace.h | 1369 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_vnode.h | 4 fs/xfs/quota/xfs_dquot.c | 110 --- fs/xfs/quota/xfs_dquot.h | 21 fs/xfs/quota/xfs_qm.c | 40 - fs/xfs/quota/xfs_qm_syscalls.c | 4 fs/xfs/support/ktrace.c | 323 --------- fs/xfs/support/ktrace.h | 85 -- fs/xfs/xfs.h | 16 fs/xfs/xfs_ag.h | 14 fs/xfs/xfs_alloc.c | 230 +----- fs/xfs/xfs_alloc.h | 27 fs/xfs/xfs_alloc_btree.c | 1 fs/xfs/xfs_attr.c | 107 --- fs/xfs/xfs_attr.h | 10 fs/xfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c | 14 fs/xfs/xfs_attr_sf.h | 40 - fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.c | 507 +++------------ fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.h | 49 - fs/xfs/xfs_bmap_btree.c | 6 fs/xfs/xfs_btree.c | 5 fs/xfs/xfs_btree_trace.h | 17 fs/xfs/xfs_buf_item.c | 87 -- fs/xfs/xfs_buf_item.h | 20 fs/xfs/xfs_da_btree.c | 3 fs/xfs/xfs_da_btree.h | 7 fs/xfs/xfs_dfrag.c | 2 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2.c | 8 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_block.c | 20 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_leaf.c | 21 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_node.c | 27 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_sf.c | 26 fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_trace.c | 216 ------ fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_trace.h | 72 -- fs/xfs/xfs_filestream.c | 8 fs/xfs/xfs_fsops.c | 2 fs/xfs/xfs_iget.c | 111 --- fs/xfs/xfs_inode.c | 67 -- fs/xfs/xfs_inode.h | 76 -- fs/xfs/xfs_inode_item.c | 5 fs/xfs/xfs_iomap.c | 85 -- fs/xfs/xfs_iomap.h | 8 fs/xfs/xfs_log.c | 181 +---- fs/xfs/xfs_log_priv.h | 20 fs/xfs/xfs_log_recover.c | 1 fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c | 2 fs/xfs/xfs_quota.h | 8 fs/xfs/xfs_rename.c | 1 fs/xfs/xfs_rtalloc.c | 1 fs/xfs/xfs_rw.c | 3 fs/xfs/xfs_trans.h | 47 + fs/xfs/xfs_trans_buf.c | 62 - fs/xfs/xfs_vnodeops.c | 8 70 files changed, 2151 insertions(+), 2592 deletions(-) Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>

xfs: don't run shutdown callbacks on active iclogs When the log is shutdown, it currently walks all the iclogs and runs callbacks that are attached to the iclogs, regardless of whether the iclog is queued for IO completion or not. This creates a problem for contexts attaching callbacks to iclogs in that a racing shutdown can run the callbacks even before the attaching context has finished processing the iclog and releasing it for IO submission. If the callback processing of the iclog frees the structure that is attached to the iclog, then this leads to an UAF scenario that can only be protected against by holding the icloglock from the point callbacks are attached through to the release of the iclog. While we currently do this, it is not practical or sustainable. Hence we need to make shutdown processing the responsibility of the context that holds active references to the iclog. We know that the contexts attaching callbacks to the iclog must have active references to the iclog, and that means they must be in either ACTIVE or WANT_SYNC states. xlog_state_do_callback() will skip over iclogs in these states -except- when the log is shut down. xlog_state_do_callback() checks the state of the iclogs while holding the icloglock, therefore the reference count/state change that occurs in xlog_state_release_iclog() after the callbacks are atomic w.r.t. shutdown processing. We can't push the responsibility of callback cleanup onto the CIL context because we can have ACTIVE iclogs that have callbacks attached that have already been released. Hence we really need to internalise the cleanup of callbacks into xlog_state_release_iclog() processing. Indeed, we already have that internalisation via: xlog_state_release_iclog drop last reference ->SYNCING xlog_sync xlog_write_iclog if (log_is_shutdown) xlog_state_done_syncing() xlog_state_do_callback() <process shutdown on iclog that is now in SYNCING state> The problem is that xlog_state_release_iclog() aborts before doing anything if the log is already shut down. It assumes that the callbacks have already been cleaned up, and it doesn't need to do any cleanup. Hence the fix is to remove the xlog_is_shutdown() check from xlog_state_release_iclog() so that reference counts are correctly released from the iclogs, and when the reference count is zero we always transition to SYNCING if the log is shut down. Hence we'll always enter the xlog_sync() path in a shutdown and eventually end up erroring out the iclog IO and running xlog_state_do_callback() to process the callbacks attached to the iclog. This allows us to stop processing referenced ACTIVE/WANT_SYNC iclogs directly in the shutdown code, and in doing so gets rid of the UAF vector that currently exists. This then decouples the adding of callbacks to the iclogs from xlog_state_release_iclog() as we guarantee that xlog_state_release_iclog() will process the callbacks if the log has been shut down before xlog_state_release_iclog() has been called.

xfs: xlog_sync() manually adjusts grant head space When xlog_sync() rounds off the tail the iclog that is being flushed, it manually subtracts that space from the grant heads. This space is actually reserved by the transaction ticket that covers the xlog_sync() call from xlog_write(), but we don't plumb the ticket down far enough for it to account for the space consumed in the current log ticket. The grant heads are hot, so we really should be accounting this to the ticket is we can, rather than adding thousands of extra grant head updates every CIL commit. Interestingly, this actually indicates a potential log space overrun can occur when we force the log. By the time that xfs_log_force() pushes out an active iclog and consumes the roundoff space, the reservation for that roundoff space has been returned to the grant heads and is no longer covered by a reservation. In theory the roundoff added to log force on an already full log could push the write head past the tail. In practice, the CIL commit that writes to the log and needs the iclog pushed will have reserved space for roundoff, so when it releases the ticket there will still be physical space for the roundoff to be committed to the log, even though it is no longer reserved. This roundoff won't be enough space to allow a transaction to be woken if the log is full, so overruns should not actually occur in practice. That said, it indicates that we should not release the CIL context log ticket until after we've released the commit iclog. It also means that xlog_sync() still needs the direct grant head manipulation if we don't provide it with a ticket. Log forces are rare when we are in fast paths running 1.5 million transactions/s that make the grant heads hot, so let's optimise the hot case and pass CIL log tickets down to the xlog_sync() code.

THis is sufficient to violate on disk metadata/journal ordering. We have two options here. The first is to detect this case in some manner and ensure that the partial checkpoint write sets NEED_FLUSH when the iclog is already marked NEED_FUA and the log tail changes. This seems somewhat fragile and quite complex to get right, and it doesn't actually make it obvious what underlying problem it is actually addressing from reading the code. The second option seems much cleaner to me, because it is derived directly from the requirements of the C1 commit record in the iclog. That is, when we write this commit record to the iclog, we've guaranteed that the metadata/data ordering is correct for tail update purposes. Hence if we only write the log tail into the iclog for the *first* commit record rather than the log tail at the last release, we guarantee that the log tail does not move past where the the first commit record in the log expects it to be. IOWs, taking the first option means that replay of C1 becomes dependent on future operations doing the right thing, not just the C1 checkpoint itself doing the right thing. This makes log recovery almost impossible to reason about because now we have to take into account what might or might not have happened in the future when looking at checkpoints in the log rather than just having to reconstruct the past...

xfs: cover the log during log quiesce The log quiesce mechanism historically terminates by marking the log clean with an unmount record. The primary objective is to indicate that log recovery is no longer required after the quiesce has flushed all in-core changes and written back filesystem metadata. While this is perfectly fine, it is somewhat hacky as currently used in certain contexts. For example, filesystem freeze quiesces (i.e. cleans) the log and immediately redirties it with a dummy superblock transaction to ensure that log recovery runs in the event of a crash. While this functions correctly, cleaning the log from freeze context is clearly superfluous given the current redirtying behavior. Instead, the desired behavior can be achieved by simply covering the log. This effectively retires all on-disk log items from the active range of the log by issuing two synchronous and sequential dummy superblock update transactions that serve to update the on-disk log head and tail. The subtle difference is that the log technically remains dirty due to the lack of an unmount record, though recovery is effectively a no-op due to the content of the checkpoints being clean (i.e. the unmodified on-disk superblock). Log covering currently runs in the background and only triggers once the filesystem and log has idled. The purpose of the background mechanism is to prevent log recovery from replaying the most recently logged items long after those items may have been written back. In the quiesce path, the log has been deliberately idled by forcing the log and pushing the AIL until empty in a context where no further mutable filesystem operations are allowed. Therefore, we can cover the log as the final step in the log quiesce codepath to reflect that all previously active items have been successfully written back. This facilitates selective log covering from certain contexts (i.e. freeze) that only seek to quiesce, but not necessarily clean the log. Note that as a side effect of this change, log covering now occurs when cleaning the log as well. This is harmless, facilitates subsequent cleanups, and is mostly temporary as various operations switch to use explicit log covering.

xfs: reserve space and initialise xlog_op_header in item formatting Current xlog_write() adds op headers to the log manually for every log item region that is in the vector passed to it. While xlog_write() needs to stamp the transaction ID into the ophdr, we already know it's length, flags, clientid, etc at CIL commit time. This means the only time that xlog write really needs to format and reserve space for a new ophdr is when a region is split across two iclogs. Adding the opheader and accounting for it as part of the normal formatted item region means we simplify the accounting of space used by a transaction and we don't have to special case reserving of space in for the ophdrs in xlog_write(). It also means we can largely initialise the ophdr in transaction commit instead of xlog_write, making the xlog_write formatting inner loop much tighter. xlog_prepare_iovec() is now too large to stay as an inline function, so we move it out of line and into xfs_log.c.

xfs: push the AIL in xlog_grant_head_wake In the situation where the log is full and the CIL has not recently flushed, the AIL push threshold is throttled back to the where the last write of the head of the log was completed. This is stored in log->l_last_sync_lsn. Hence if the CIL holds > 25% of the log space pinned by flushes and/or aggregation in progress, we can get the situation where the head of the log lags a long way behind the reservation grant head. When this happens, the AIL push target is trimmed back from where the reservation grant head wants to push the log tail to, back to where the head of the log currently is. This means the push target doesn't reach far enough into the log to actually move the tail before the transaction reservation goes to sleep. When the CIL push completes, it moves the log head forward such that the AIL push target can now be moved, but that has no mechanism for puhsing the log tail. Further, if the next tail movement of the log is not large enough wake the waiter (i.e. still not enough space for it to have a reservation granted), we don't wake anything up, and hence we do not update the AIL push target to take into account the head of the log moving and allowing the push target to be moved forwards. To avoid this particular condition, if we fail to wake the first waiter on the grant head because we don't have enough space, push on the AIL again. This will pick up any movement of the log head and allow the push target to move forward due to completion of CIL pushing. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Darrick J.

Hence if the CIL holds > 25% of the log space pinned by flushes and/or aggregation in progress, we can get the situation where the head of the log lags a long way behind the reservation grant head. When this happens, the AIL push target is trimmed back from where the reservation grant head wants to push the log tail to, back to where the head of the log currently is. This means the push target doesn't reach far enough into the log to actually move the tail before the transaction reservation goes to sleep. When the CIL push completes, it moves the log head forward such that the AIL push target can now be moved, but that has no mechanism for puhsing the log tail. Further, if the next tail movement of the log is not large enough wake the waiter (i.e. still not enough space for it to have a reservation granted), we don't wake anything up, and hence we do not update the AIL push target to take into account the head of the log moving and allowing the push target to be moved forwards. To avoid this particular condition, if we fail to wake the first waiter on the grant head because we don't have enough space, push on the AIL again. This will pick up any movement of the log head and allow the push target to move forward due to completion of CIL pushing. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Darrick J.

This is required to maintain filesystem consistency across quiesce (freeze, read-only mount/remount) or unmount when lazy superblock accounting is enabled because individual transactions do not update the superblock directly. This mechanism works as expected for writable mounts, but xfs_log_sbcount() skips the update for read-only mounts. Read-only mounts otherwise still allow log recovery and write out an unmount record during log quiesce. If a read-only mount performs log recovery, it can modify the in-core superblock counters and write an unmount record when the filesystem unmounts without ever syncing the in-core counters. This leaves the filesystem with a clean log but in an inconsistent state with regard to lazy sb counters. Update xfs_log_sbcount() to use the same logic xfs_log_unmount_write() uses to determine when to write an unmount record. This ensures that lazy accounting is always synced before the log is cleaned. Refactor this logic into a new helper to distinguish between a writable filesystem and a writable log. Specifically, the log is writable unless the filesystem is mounted with the norecovery mount option, the underlying log device is read-only, or the filesystem is shutdown. Drop the freeze state check because the update is already allowed during the freezing process and no context calls this function on an already frozen fs. Also, retain the shutdown check in xfs_log_unmount_write() to catch the case where the preceding log force might have triggered a shutdown.

xfs: fix direct IO nested transaction deadlock. The direct IO path can do a nested transaction reservation when writing past the EOF. The first transaction is the append transaction for setting the filesize at IO completion, but we can also need a transaction for allocation of blocks. If the log is low on space due to reservations and small log, the append transaction can be granted after wating for space as the only active transaction in the system. This then attempts a reservation for an allocation, which there isn't space in the log for, and the reservation sleeps. The result is that there is nothing left in the system to wake up all the processes waiting for log space to come free. The stack trace that shows this deadlock is relatively innocuous: xlog_grant_head_wait xlog_grant_head_check xfs_log_reserve xfs_trans_reserve xfs_iomap_write_direct __xfs_get_blocks xfs_get_blocks_direct do_blockdev_direct_IO __blockdev_direct_IO xfs_vm_direct_IO generic_file_direct_write xfs_file_dio_aio_writ xfs_file_aio_write do_sync_write vfs_write This was discovered on a filesystem with a log of only 10MB, and a log stripe unit of 256k whih increased the base reservations by 512k. Hence a allocation transaction requires 1.2MB of log space to be available instead of only 260k, and so greatly increased the chance that there wouldn't be enough log space available for the nested transaction to succeed. The key to reproducing it is this mkfs command: mkfs.xfs -f -d agcount=16,su=256k,sw=12 -l su=256k,size=2560b $SCRATCH_DEV The test case was a 1000 fsstress processes running with random freeze and unfreezes every few seconds.

xfs: run callbacks before waking waiters in xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks Brian reported a null pointer dereference failure during unmount in xfs/006. He tracked the problem down to the AIL being torn down before a log shutdown had completed and removed all the items from the AIL. The failure occurred in this path while unmount was proceeding in another task: xfs_trans_ail_delete+0x102/0x130 [xfs] xfs_buf_item_done+0x22/0x30 [xfs] xfs_buf_ioend+0x73/0x4d0 [xfs] xfs_trans_committed_bulk+0x17e/0x2f0 [xfs] xlog_cil_committed+0x2a9/0x300 [xfs] xlog_cil_process_committed+0x69/0x80 [xfs] xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks+0xce/0xf0 [xfs] xlog_force_shutdown+0xdf/0x150 [xfs] xfs_do_force_shutdown+0x5f/0x150 [xfs] xlog_ioend_work+0x71/0x80 [xfs] process_one_work+0x1c5/0x390 worker_thread+0x30/0x350 kthread+0xd7/0x100 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 This is processing an EIO error to a log write, and it's triggering a force shutdown. This causes the log to be shut down, and then it is running attached iclog callbacks from the shutdown context. That means the fs and log has already been marked as xfs_is_shutdown/xlog_is_shutdown and so high level code will abort (e.g. xfs_trans_commit(), xfs_log_force(), etc) with an error because of shutdown. The umount would have been blocked waiting for a log force completion inside xfs_log_cover() -> xfs_sync_sb(). The first thing for this situation to occur is for xfs_sync_sb() to exit without waiting for the iclog buffer to be comitted to disk. The above trace is the completion routine for the iclog buffer, and it is shutting down the filesystem. xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks() does this: { struct xlog_in_core *iclog; LIST_HEAD(cb_list); spin_lock(&log->l_icloglock); iclog = log->l_iclog; do { if (atomic_read(&iclog->ic_refcnt)) { /* Reference holder will re-run iclog callbacks. */ continue; } list_splice_init(&iclog->ic_callbacks, &cb_list); >>>>>> wake_up_all(&iclog->ic_write_wait); >>>>>> wake_up_all(&iclog->ic_force_wait); } while ((iclog = iclog->ic_next) != log->l_iclog); wake_up_all(&log->l_flush_wait); spin_unlock(&log->l_icloglock); >>>>>> xlog_cil_process_committed(&cb_list); } This wakes any thread waiting on IO completion of the iclog (in this case the umount log force) before shutdown processes all the pending callbacks. That means the xfs_sync_sb() waiting on a sync transaction in xfs_log_force() on iclog->ic_force_wait will get woken before the callbacks attached to that iclog are run. This results in xfs_sync_sb() returning an error, and so unmount unblocks and continues to run whilst the log shutdown is still in progress. Normally this is just fine because the force waiter has nothing to do with AIL operations. But in the case of this unmount path, the log force waiter goes on to tear down the AIL because the log is now shut down and so nothing ever blocks it again from the wait point in xfs_log_cover(). Hence it's a race to see who gets to the AIL first - the unmount code or xlog_cil_process_committed() killing the superblock buffer. To fix this, we just have to change the order of processing in xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks() to run the callbacks before it wakes any task waiting on completion of the iclog.

This causes the log to be shut down, and then it is running attached iclog callbacks from the shutdown context.

xfs: limit iclog tail updates From the department of "generic/482 keeps on giving", we bring you another tail update race condition: iclog: S1 C1 +-----------------------+-----------------------+ S2 EOIC Two checkpoints in a single iclog. One is complete, the other just contains the start record and overruns into a new iclog. Timeline: Before S1: Cache flush, log tail = X At S1: Metadata stable, write start record and checkpoint At C1: Write commit record, set NEED_FUA Single iclog checkpoint, so no need for NEED_FLUSH Log tail still = X, so no need for NEED_FLUSH After C1, Before S2: Cache flush, log tail = X At S2: Metadata stable, write start record and checkpoint After S2: Log tail moves to X+1 At EOIC: End of iclog, more journal data to write Releases iclog Not a commit iclog, so no need for NEED_FLUSH Writes log tail X+1 into iclog. At this point, the iclog has tail X+1 and NEED_FUA set. There has been no cache flush for the metadata between X and X+1, and the iclog writes the new tail permanently to the log. THis is sufficient to violate on disk metadata/journal ordering. We have two options here. The first is to detect this case in some manner and ensure that the partial checkpoint write sets NEED_FLUSH when the iclog is already marked NEED_FUA and the log tail changes. This seems somewhat fragile and quite complex to get right, and it doesn't actually make it obvious what underlying problem it is actually addressing from reading the code. The second option seems much cleaner to me, because it is derived directly from the requirements of the C1 commit record in the iclog. That is, when we write this commit record to the iclog, we've guaranteed that the metadata/data ordering is correct for tail update purposes. Hence if we only write the log tail into the iclog for the *first* commit record rather than the log tail at the last release, we guarantee that the log tail does not move past where the the first commit record in the log expects it to be. IOWs, taking the first option means that replay of C1 becomes dependent on future operations doing the right thing, not just the C1 checkpoint itself doing the right thing. This makes log recovery almost impossible to reason about because now we have to take into account what might or might not have happened in the future when looking at checkpoints in the log rather than just having to reconstruct the past...

xfs: journal IO cache flush reductions Currently every journal IO is issued as REQ_PREFLUSH | REQ_FUA to guarantee the ordering requirements the journal has w.r.t. metadata writeback. THe two ordering constraints are: 1. we cannot overwrite metadata in the journal until we guarantee that the dirty metadata has been written back in place and is stable. 2. we cannot write back dirty metadata until it has been written to the journal and guaranteed to be stable (and hence recoverable) in the journal. The ordering guarantees of #1 are provided by REQ_PREFLUSH. This causes the journal IO to issue a cache flush and wait for it to complete before issuing the write IO to the journal. Hence all completed metadata IO is guaranteed to be stable before the journal overwrites the old metadata. The ordering guarantees of #2 are provided by the REQ_FUA, which ensures the journal writes do not complete until they are on stable storage. Hence by the time the last journal IO in a checkpoint completes, we know that the entire checkpoint is on stable storage and we can unpin the dirty metadata and allow it to be written back. This is the mechanism by which ordering was first implemented in XFS way back in 2002 by commit 95d97c36e5155075ba2eb22b17562cfcc53fcf96 ("Add support for drive write cache flushing") in the xfs-archive tree. A lot has changed since then, most notably we now use delayed logging to checkpoint the filesystem to the journal rather than write each individual transaction to the journal. Cache flushes on journal IO are necessary when individual transactions are wholly contained within a single iclog. However, CIL checkpoints are single transactions that typically span hundreds to thousands of individual journal writes, and so the requirements for device cache flushing have changed. That is, the ordering rules I state above apply to ordering of atomic transactions recorded in the journal, not to the journal IO itself. Hence we need to ensure metadata is stable before we start writing a new transaction to the journal (guarantee #1), and we need to ensure the entire transaction is stable in the journal before we start metadata writeback (guarantee #2). Hence we only need a REQ_PREFLUSH on the journal IO that starts a new journal transaction to provide #1, and it is not on any other journal IO done within the context of that journal transaction. The CIL checkpoint already issues a cache flush before it starts writing to the log, so we no longer need the iclog IO to issue a REQ_REFLUSH for us. Hence if XLOG_START_TRANS is passed to xlog_write(), we no longer need to mark the first iclog in the log write with REQ_PREFLUSH for this case. As an added bonus, this ordering mechanism works for both internal and external logs, meaning we can remove the explicit data device cache flushes from the iclog write code when using external logs. Given the new ordering semantics of commit records for the CIL, we need iclogs containing commit records to issue a REQ_PREFLUSH. We also require unmount records to do this. Hence for both XLOG_COMMIT_TRANS and XLOG_UNMOUNT_TRANS xlog_write() calls we need to mark the first iclog being written with REQ_PREFLUSH. For both commit records and unmount records, we also want them immediately on stable storage, so we want to also mark the iclogs that contain these records to be marked REQ_FUA. That means if a record is split across multiple iclogs, they are all marked REQ_FUA and not just the last one so that when the transaction is completed all the parts of the record are on stable storage. And for external logs, unmount records need a pre-write data device cache flush similar to the CIL checkpoint cache pre-flush as the internal iclog write code does not do this implicitly anymore. As an optimisation, when the commit record lands in the same iclog as the journal transaction starts, we don't need to wait for anything and can simply use REQ_FUA to provide guarantee #2. This means that for fsync() heavy workloads, the cache flush behaviour is completely unchanged and there is no degradation in performance as a result of optimise the multi-IO transaction case. The most notable sign that there is less IO latency on my test machine (nvme SSDs) is that the "noiclogs" rate has dropped substantially. This metric indicates that the CIL push is blocking in xlog_get_iclog_space() waiting for iclog IO completion to occur. With 8 iclogs of 256kB, the rate is appoximately 1 noiclog event to every 4 iclog writes. IOWs, every 4th call to xlog_get_iclog_space() is blocking waiting for log IO. With the changes in this patch, this drops to 1 noiclog event for every 100 iclog writes. Hence it is clear that log IO is completing much faster than it was previously, but it is also clear that for large iclog sizes, this isn't the performance limiting factor on this hardware. With smaller iclogs (32kB), however, there is a substantial difference. With the cache flush modifications, the journal is now running at over 4000 write IOPS, and the journal throughput is largely identical to the 256kB iclogs and the noiclog event rate stays low at about 1:50 iclog writes. The existing code tops out at about 2500 IOPS as the number of cache flushes dominate performance and latency. The noiclog event rate is about 1:4, and the performance variance is quite large as the journal throughput can fall to less than half the peak sustained rate when the cache flush rate prevents metadata writeback from keeping up and the log runs out of space and throttles reservations. As a result: logbsize fsmark create rate rm -rf before 32kb 152851+/-5.3e+04 5m28s patched 32kb 221533+/-1.1e+04 5m24s before 256kb 220239+/-6.2e+03 4m58s patched 256kb 228286+/-9.2e+03 5m06s The rm -rf times are included because I ran them, but the differences are largely noise. This workload is largely metadata read IO latency bound and the changes to the journal cache flushing doesn't really make any noticable difference to behaviour apart from a reduction in noiclog events from background CIL pushing.

xfs: xlog_sync() manually adjusts grant head space When xlog_sync() rounds off the tail the iclog that is being flushed, it manually subtracts that space from the grant heads. This space is actually reserved by the transaction ticket that covers the xlog_sync() call from xlog_write(), but we don't plumb the ticket down far enough for it to account for the space consumed in the current log ticket. The grant heads are hot, so we really should be accounting this to the ticket is we can, rather than adding thousands of extra grant head updates every CIL commit. Interestingly, this actually indicates a potential log space overrun can occur when we force the log. By the time that xfs_log_force() pushes out an active iclog and consumes the roundoff space, the reservation for that roundoff space has been returned to the grant heads and is no longer covered by a reservation. In theory the roundoff added to log force on an already full log could push the write head past the tail. In practice, the CIL commit that writes to the log and needs the iclog pushed will have reserved space for roundoff, so when it releases the ticket there will still be physical space for the roundoff to be committed to the log, even though it is no longer reserved. This roundoff won't be enough space to allow a transaction to be woken if the log is full, so overruns should not actually occur in practice. That said, it indicates that we should not release the CIL context log ticket until after we've released the commit iclog. It also means that xlog_sync() still needs the direct grant head manipulation if we don't provide it with a ticket. Log forces are rare when we are in fast paths running 1.5 million transactions/s that make the grant heads hot, so let's optimise the hot case and pass CIL log tickets down to the xlog_sync() code.

Indeed, we already have that internalisation via: xlog_state_release_iclog drop last reference ->SYNCING xlog_sync xlog_write_iclog if (log_is_shutdown) xlog_state_done_syncing() xlog_state_do_callback() <process shutdown on iclog that is now in SYNCING state> The problem is that xlog_state_release_iclog() aborts before doing anything if the log is already shut down. It assumes that the callbacks have already been cleaned up, and it doesn't need to do any cleanup. Hence the fix is to remove the xlog_is_shutdown() check from xlog_state_release_iclog() so that reference counts are correctly released from the iclogs, and when the reference count is zero we always transition to SYNCING if the log is shut down. Hence we'll always enter the xlog_sync() path in a shutdown and eventually end up erroring out the iclog IO and running xlog_state_do_callback() to process the callbacks attached to the iclog. This allows us to stop processing referenced ACTIVE/WANT_SYNC iclogs directly in the shutdown code, and in doing so gets rid of the UAF vector that currently exists. This then decouples the adding of callbacks to the iclogs from xlog_state_release_iclog() as we guarantee that xlog_state_release_iclog() will process the callbacks if the log has been shut down before xlog_state_release_iclog() has been called.

xfs: fix ordering violation between cache flushes and tail updates There is a race between the new CIL async data device metadata IO completion cache flush and the log tail in the iclog the flush covers being updated.

XFS (dm-3): metadata I/O error in "xlog_recover_items_pass2+0x55/0xc0" at daddr 0x37c00 len 32 error 117 Analysis of the logwrite replay shows that there were no writes to the data device between the FUA @ write 124 and the FUA at write @ 125, but log recovery @ 125 failed. The difference was the one log write @ 125 moved the tail of the log forwards from (1,8) to (1,32) and so the inode create intent in (1,8) was not replayed and so the inode cluster was zero on disk when replay of the first inode item in (1,32) was attempted. What this meant was that the journal write that occurred at @ 125 did not ensure that metadata completed before the iclog was written was correctly on stable storage. The tail of the log moved forward, so IO must have been completed between the two iclog writes. This means that there is a race condition between the unconditional async cache flush in the CIL push work and the tail LSN that is written to the iclog. This happens like so: CIL push work AIL push work ------------- ------------- Add to committing list start async data dev cache flush ..... <flush completes> <all writes to old tail lsn are stable> xlog_write .... push inode create buffer <start IO> ..... xlog_write(commit record) .... <IO completes> log tail moves xlog_assign_tail_lsn() start_lsn == commit_lsn <no iclog preflush!> xlog_state_release_iclog __xlog_state_release_iclog() <writes *new* tail_lsn into iclog> xlog_sync() .... submit_bio() <tail in log moves forward without flushing written metadata> Essentially, this can only occur if the commit iclog is issued without a cache flush. If the iclog bio is submitted with REQ_PREFLUSH, then it will guarantee that all the completed IO is one stable storage before the iclog bio with the new tail LSN in it is written to the log. IOWs, the tail lsn that is written to the iclog needs to be sampled *before* we issue the cache flush that guarantees all IO up to that LSN has been completed. To fix this without giving up the performance advantage of the flush/FUA optimisations (e.g. g/482 runtime halves with 5.14-rc1 compared to 5.13), we need to ensure that we always issue a cache flush if the tail LSN changes between the initial async flush and the commit record being written. THis requires sampling the tail_lsn before we start the flush, and then passing the sampled tail LSN to xlog_state_release_iclog() so it can determine if the the tail LSN has changed while writing the checkpoint. If the tail LSN has changed, then it needs to set the NEED_FLUSH flag on the iclog and we'll issue another cache flush before writing the iclog.

xfs: fix ordering violation between cache flushes and tail updates There is a race between the new CIL async data device metadata IO completion cache flush and the log tail in the iclog the flush covers being updated.

XFS (dm-3): metadata I/O error in "xlog_recover_items_pass2+0x55/0xc0" at daddr 0x37c00 len 32 error 117 Analysis of the logwrite replay shows that there were no writes to the data device between the FUA @ write 124 and the FUA at write @ 125, but log recovery @ 125 failed. The difference was the one log write @ 125 moved the tail of the log forwards from (1,8) to (1,32) and so the inode create intent in (1,8) was not replayed and so the inode cluster was zero on disk when replay of the first inode item in (1,32) was attempted. What this meant was that the journal write that occurred at @ 125 did not ensure that metadata completed before the iclog was written was correctly on stable storage. The tail of the log moved forward, so IO must have been completed between the two iclog writes. This means that there is a race condition between the unconditional async cache flush in the CIL push work and the tail LSN that is written to the iclog. This happens like so: CIL push work AIL push work ------------- ------------- Add to committing list start async data dev cache flush ..... <flush completes> <all writes to old tail lsn are stable> xlog_write .... push inode create buffer <start IO> ..... xlog_write(commit record) .... <IO completes> log tail moves xlog_assign_tail_lsn() start_lsn == commit_lsn <no iclog preflush!> xlog_state_release_iclog __xlog_state_release_iclog() <writes *new* tail_lsn into iclog> xlog_sync() .... submit_bio() <tail in log moves forward without flushing written metadata> Essentially, this can only occur if the commit iclog is issued without a cache flush. If the iclog bio is submitted with REQ_PREFLUSH, then it will guarantee that all the completed IO is one stable storage before the iclog bio with the new tail LSN in it is written to the log. IOWs, the tail lsn that is written to the iclog needs to be sampled *before* we issue the cache flush that guarantees all IO up to that LSN has been completed. To fix this without giving up the performance advantage of the flush/FUA optimisations (e.g. g/482 runtime halves with 5.14-rc1 compared to 5.13), we need to ensure that we always issue a cache flush if the tail LSN changes between the initial async flush and the commit record being written. THis requires sampling the tail_lsn before we start the flush, and then passing the sampled tail LSN to xlog_state_release_iclog() so it can determine if the the tail LSN has changed while writing the checkpoint. If the tail LSN has changed, then it needs to set the NEED_FLUSH flag on the iclog and we'll issue another cache flush before writing the iclog.

xfs: don't run shutdown callbacks on active iclogs When the log is shutdown, it currently walks all the iclogs and runs callbacks that are attached to the iclogs, regardless of whether the iclog is queued for IO completion or not. This creates a problem for contexts attaching callbacks to iclogs in that a racing shutdown can run the callbacks even before the attaching context has finished processing the iclog and releasing it for IO submission. If the callback processing of the iclog frees the structure that is attached to the iclog, then this leads to an UAF scenario that can only be protected against by holding the icloglock from the point callbacks are attached through to the release of the iclog. While we currently do this, it is not practical or sustainable. Hence we need to make shutdown processing the responsibility of the context that holds active references to the iclog. We know that the contexts attaching callbacks to the iclog must have active references to the iclog, and that means they must be in either ACTIVE or WANT_SYNC states. xlog_state_do_callback() will skip over iclogs in these states -except- when the log is shut down. xlog_state_do_callback() checks the state of the iclogs while holding the icloglock, therefore the reference count/state change that occurs in xlog_state_release_iclog() after the callbacks are atomic w.r.t. shutdown processing. We can't push the responsibility of callback cleanup onto the CIL context because we can have ACTIVE iclogs that have callbacks attached that have already been released. Hence we really need to internalise the cleanup of callbacks into xlog_state_release_iclog() processing. Indeed, we already have that internalisation via: xlog_state_release_iclog drop last reference ->SYNCING xlog_sync xlog_write_iclog if (log_is_shutdown) xlog_state_done_syncing() xlog_state_do_callback() <process shutdown on iclog that is now in SYNCING state> The problem is that xlog_state_release_iclog() aborts before doing anything if the log is already shut down. It assumes that the callbacks have already been cleaned up, and it doesn't need to do any cleanup. Hence the fix is to remove the xlog_is_shutdown() check from xlog_state_release_iclog() so that reference counts are correctly released from the iclogs, and when the reference count is zero we always transition to SYNCING if the log is shut down. Hence we'll always enter the xlog_sync() path in a shutdown and eventually end up erroring out the iclog IO and running xlog_state_do_callback() to process the callbacks attached to the iclog. This allows us to stop processing referenced ACTIVE/WANT_SYNC iclogs directly in the shutdown code, and in doing so gets rid of the UAF vector that currently exists. This then decouples the adding of callbacks to the iclogs from xlog_state_release_iclog() as we guarantee that xlog_state_release_iclog() will process the callbacks if the log has been shut down before xlog_state_release_iclog() has been called.

xfs: run callbacks before waking waiters in xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks Brian reported a null pointer dereference failure during unmount in xfs/006. He tracked the problem down to the AIL being torn down before a log shutdown had completed and removed all the items from the AIL. The failure occurred in this path while unmount was proceeding in another task: xfs_trans_ail_delete+0x102/0x130 [xfs] xfs_buf_item_done+0x22/0x30 [xfs] xfs_buf_ioend+0x73/0x4d0 [xfs] xfs_trans_committed_bulk+0x17e/0x2f0 [xfs] xlog_cil_committed+0x2a9/0x300 [xfs] xlog_cil_process_committed+0x69/0x80 [xfs] xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks+0xce/0xf0 [xfs] xlog_force_shutdown+0xdf/0x150 [xfs] xfs_do_force_shutdown+0x5f/0x150 [xfs] xlog_ioend_work+0x71/0x80 [xfs] process_one_work+0x1c5/0x390 worker_thread+0x30/0x350 kthread+0xd7/0x100 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 This is processing an EIO error to a log write, and it's triggering a force shutdown. This causes the log to be shut down, and then it is running attached iclog callbacks from the shutdown context. That means the fs and log has already been marked as xfs_is_shutdown/xlog_is_shutdown and so high level code will abort (e.g. xfs_trans_commit(), xfs_log_force(), etc) with an error because of shutdown. The umount would have been blocked waiting for a log force completion inside xfs_log_cover() -> xfs_sync_sb(). The first thing for this situation to occur is for xfs_sync_sb() to exit without waiting for the iclog buffer to be comitted to disk. The above trace is the completion routine for the iclog buffer, and it is shutting down the filesystem. xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks() does this: { struct xlog_in_core *iclog; LIST_HEAD(cb_list); spin_lock(&log->l_icloglock); iclog = log->l_iclog; do { if (atomic_read(&iclog->ic_refcnt)) { /* Reference holder will re-run iclog callbacks. */ continue; } list_splice_init(&iclog->ic_callbacks, &cb_list); >>>>>> wake_up_all(&iclog->ic_write_wait); >>>>>> wake_up_all(&iclog->ic_force_wait); } while ((iclog = iclog->ic_next) != log->l_iclog); wake_up_all(&log->l_flush_wait); spin_unlock(&log->l_icloglock); >>>>>> xlog_cil_process_committed(&cb_list); } This wakes any thread waiting on IO completion of the iclog (in this case the umount log force) before shutdown processes all the pending callbacks. That means the xfs_sync_sb() waiting on a sync transaction in xfs_log_force() on iclog->ic_force_wait will get woken before the callbacks attached to that iclog are run. This results in xfs_sync_sb() returning an error, and so unmount unblocks and continues to run whilst the log shutdown is still in progress. Normally this is just fine because the force waiter has nothing to do with AIL operations. But in the case of this unmount path, the log force waiter goes on to tear down the AIL because the log is now shut down and so nothing ever blocks it again from the wait point in xfs_log_cover(). Hence it's a race to see who gets to the AIL first - the unmount code or xlog_cil_process_committed() killing the superblock buffer. To fix this, we just have to change the order of processing in xlog_state_shutdown_callbacks() to run the callbacks before it wakes any task waiting on completion of the iclog.

xfs: limit iclog tail updates From the department of "generic/482 keeps on giving", we bring you another tail update race condition: iclog: S1 C1 +-----------------------+-----------------------+ S2 EOIC Two checkpoints in a single iclog. One is complete, the other just contains the start record and overruns into a new iclog. Timeline: Before S1: Cache flush, log tail = X At S1: Metadata stable, write start record and checkpoint At C1: Write commit record, set NEED_FUA Single iclog checkpoint, so no need for NEED_FLUSH Log tail still = X, so no need for NEED_FLUSH After C1, Before S2: Cache flush, log tail = X At S2: Metadata stable, write start record and checkpoint After S2: Log tail moves to X+1 At EOIC: End of iclog, more journal data to write Releases iclog Not a commit iclog, so no need for NEED_FLUSH Writes log tail X+1 into iclog. At this point, the iclog has tail X+1 and NEED_FUA set. There has been no cache flush for the metadata between X and X+1, and the iclog writes the new tail permanently to the log. THis is sufficient to violate on disk metadata/journal ordering. We have two options here. The first is to detect this case in some manner and ensure that the partial checkpoint write sets NEED_FLUSH when the iclog is already marked NEED_FUA and the log tail changes. This seems somewhat fragile and quite complex to get right, and it doesn't actually make it obvious what underlying problem it is actually addressing from reading the code. The second option seems much cleaner to me, because it is derived directly from the requirements of the C1 commit record in the iclog. That is, when we write this commit record to the iclog, we've guaranteed that the metadata/data ordering is correct for tail update purposes. Hence if we only write the log tail into the iclog for the *first* commit record rather than the log tail at the last release, we guarantee that the log tail does not move past where the the first commit record in the log expects it to be. IOWs, taking the first option means that replay of C1 becomes dependent on future operations doing the right thing, not just the C1 checkpoint itself doing the right thing. This makes log recovery almost impossible to reason about because now we have to take into account what might or might not have happened in the future when looking at checkpoints in the log rather than just having to reconstruct the past...

xfs: xlog_sync() manually adjusts grant head space When xlog_sync() rounds off the tail the iclog that is being flushed, it manually subtracts that space from the grant heads. This space is actually reserved by the transaction ticket that covers the xlog_sync() call from xlog_write(), but we don't plumb the ticket down far enough for it to account for the space consumed in the current log ticket. The grant heads are hot, so we really should be accounting this to the ticket is we can, rather than adding thousands of extra grant head updates every CIL commit. Interestingly, this actually indicates a potential log space overrun can occur when we force the log. By the time that xfs_log_force() pushes out an active iclog and consumes the roundoff space, the reservation for that roundoff space has been returned to the grant heads and is no longer covered by a reservation. In theory the roundoff added to log force on an already full log could push the write head past the tail. In practice, the CIL commit that writes to the log and needs the iclog pushed will have reserved space for roundoff, so when it releases the ticket there will still be physical space for the roundoff to be committed to the log, even though it is no longer reserved. This roundoff won't be enough space to allow a transaction to be woken if the log is full, so overruns should not actually occur in practice. That said, it indicates that we should not release the CIL context log ticket until after we've released the commit iclog. It also means that xlog_sync() still needs the direct grant head manipulation if we don't provide it with a ticket. Log forces are rare when we are in fast paths running 1.5 million transactions/s that make the grant heads hot, so let's optimise the hot case and pass CIL log tickets down to the xlog_sync() code.

[XFS] Move AIL pushing into it's own thread When many hundreds to thousands of threads all try to do simultaneous transactions and the log is in a tail-pushing situation (i.e. full), we can get multiple threads walking the AIL list and contending on the AIL lock. The AIL push is, in effect, a simple I/O dispatch algorithm complicated by the ordering constraints placed on it by the transaction subsystem. It really does not need multiple threads to push on it - even when only a single CPU is pushing the AIL, it can push the I/O out far faster that pretty much any disk subsystem can handle. So, to avoid contention problems stemming from multiple list walkers, move the list walk off into another thread and simply provide a "target" to push to. When a thread requires a push, it sets the target and wakes the push thread, then goes to sleep waiting for the required amount of space to become available in the log. This mechanism should also be a lot fairer under heavy load as the waiters will queue in arrival order, rather than queuing in "who completed a push first" order. Also, by moving the pushing to a separate thread we can do more effectively overload detection and prevention as we can keep context from loop iteration to loop iteration. That is, we can push only part of the list each loop and not have to loop back to the start of the list every time we run. This should also help by reducing the number of items we try to lock and/or push items that we cannot move. Note that this patch is not intended to solve the inefficiencies in the AIL structure and the associated issues with extremely large list contents. That needs to be addresses separately; parallel access would cause problems to any new structure as well, so I'm only aiming to isolate the structure from unbounded parallelism here.

[XFS] Move AIL pushing into it's own thread When many hundreds to thousands of threads all try to do simultaneous transactions and the log is in a tail-pushing situation (i.e. full), we can get multiple threads walking the AIL list and contending on the AIL lock. The AIL push is, in effect, a simple I/O dispatch algorithm complicated by the ordering constraints placed on it by the transaction subsystem. It really does not need multiple threads to push on it - even when only a single CPU is pushing the AIL, it can push the I/O out far faster that pretty much any disk subsystem can handle. So, to avoid contention problems stemming from multiple list walkers, move the list walk off into another thread and simply provide a "target" to push to. When a thread requires a push, it sets the target and wakes the push thread, then goes to sleep waiting for the required amount of space to become available in the log. This mechanism should also be a lot fairer under heavy load as the waiters will queue in arrival order, rather than queuing in "who completed a push first" order. Also, by moving the pushing to a separate thread we can do more effectively overload detection and prevention as we can keep context from loop iteration to loop iteration. That is, we can push only part of the list each loop and not have to loop back to the start of the list every time we run. This should also help by reducing the number of items we try to lock and/or push items that we cannot move. Note that this patch is not intended to solve the inefficiencies in the AIL structure and the associated issues with extremely large list contents. That needs to be addresses separately; parallel access would cause problems to any new structure as well, so I'm only aiming to isolate the structure from unbounded parallelism here.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that should not be used in production yet. We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List (CIL) is for. The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable this tracking. To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space log required/used by the context checkpoint. To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item, rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL. Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point back at the memory buffer we just copied into. This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it again. The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update all the tickets, counters, etc correctly. Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time. Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event. Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during Io completion to complete the checkpoint. We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with. To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

What has happened here is that the AIL push thread has raced with the inodegc process modifying, committing and pinning the inode cluster buffer here in xfs_buf_delwri_submit_buffers() here: blk_start_plug(&plug); list_for_each_entry_safe(bp, n, buffer_list, b_list) { if (!wait_list) { if (xfs_buf_ispinned(bp)) { pinned++; continue; } Here >>>>>> if (!xfs_buf_trylock(bp)) continue; Basically, the AIL has found the buffer wasn't pinned and got the lock without blocking, but then the buffer was pinned. This implies the processing here was pre-empted between the pin check and the lock, because the pin count can only be increased while holding the buffer locked. Hence when it has gone to submit the IO, it has blocked waiting for the buffer to be unpinned. With all executing threads now waiting on the buffer to be unpinned, we normally get out of situations like this via the background log worker issuing a log force which will unpinned stuck buffers like this. But at this point in recovery, we haven't started the log worker. In fact, the first thing we do after processing intents and unlinked inodes is *start the log worker*. IOWs, we start it too late to have it break deadlocks like this.

xfs: log forces imply data device cache flushes After fixing the tail_lsn vs cache flush race, generic/482 continued to fail in a similar way where cache flushes were missing before iclog FUA writes. Tracing of iclog state changes during the fsstress workload portion of the test (via xlog_iclog* events) indicated that iclog writes were coming from two sources - CIL pushes and log forces (due to fsync/O_SYNC operations). All of the cases where a recovery problem was triggered indicated that the log force was the source of the iclog write that was not preceeded by a cache flush. This was an oversight in the modifications made in commit eef983ffeae7 ("xfs: journal IO cache flush reductions"). Log forces for fsync imply a data device cache flush has been issued if an iclog was flushed to disk and is indicated to the caller via the log_flushed parameter so they can elide the device cache flush if the journal issued one. The change in eef983ffeae7 results in iclogs only issuing a cache flush if XLOG_ICL_NEED_FLUSH is set on the iclog, but this was not added to the iclogs that the log force code flushes to disk. Hence log forces are no longer guaranteeing that a cache flush is issued, hence opening up a potential on-disk ordering failure. Log forces should also set XLOG_ICL_NEED_FUA as well to ensure that the actual iclogs it forces to the journal are also on stable storage before it returns to the caller. This patch introduces the xlog_force_iclog() helper function to encapsulate the process of taking a reference to an iclog, switching its state if WANT_SYNC and flushing it to stable storage correctly. Both xfs_log_force() and xfs_log_force_lsn() are converted to use it, as is xlog_unmount_write() which has an elaborate method of doing exactly the same "write this iclog to stable storage" operation. Further, if the log force code needs to wait on a iclog in the WANT_SYNC state, it needs to ensure that iclog also results in a cache flush being issued. This covers the case where the iclog contains the commit record of the CIL flush that the log force triggered, but it hasn't been written yet because there is still an active reference to the iclog. Note: this whole cache flush whack-a-mole patch is a result of log forces still being iclog state centric rather than being CIL sequence centric. Most of this nasty code will go away in future when log forces are converted to wait on CIL sequence push completion rather than iclog completion. With the CIL push algorithm guaranteeing that the CIL checkpoint is fully on stable storage when it completes, we no longer need to iterate iclogs and push them to ensure a CIL sequence push has completed and so all this nasty iclog iteration and flushing code will go away.

xfs: xlog_sync() manually adjusts grant head space When xlog_sync() rounds off the tail the iclog that is being flushed, it manually subtracts that space from the grant heads. This space is actually reserved by the transaction ticket that covers the xlog_sync() call from xlog_write(), but we don't plumb the ticket down far enough for it to account for the space consumed in the current log ticket. The grant heads are hot, so we really should be accounting this to the ticket is we can, rather than adding thousands of extra grant head updates every CIL commit. Interestingly, this actually indicates a potential log space overrun can occur when we force the log. By the time that xfs_log_force() pushes out an active iclog and consumes the roundoff space, the reservation for that roundoff space has been returned to the grant heads and is no longer covered by a reservation. In theory the roundoff added to log force on an already full log could push the write head past the tail. In practice, the CIL commit that writes to the log and needs the iclog pushed will have reserved space for roundoff, so when it releases the ticket there will still be physical space for the roundoff to be committed to the log, even though it is no longer reserved. This roundoff won't be enough space to allow a transaction to be woken if the log is full, so overruns should not actually occur in practice. That said, it indicates that we should not release the CIL context log ticket until after we've released the commit iclog. It also means that xlog_sync() still needs the direct grant head manipulation if we don't provide it with a ticket. Log forces are rare when we are in fast paths running 1.5 million transactions/s that make the grant heads hot, so let's optimise the hot case and pass CIL log tickets down to the xlog_sync() code.

xfs: journal IO cache flush reductions Currently every journal IO is issued as REQ_PREFLUSH | REQ_FUA to guarantee the ordering requirements the journal has w.r.t. metadata writeback. THe two ordering constraints are: 1. we cannot overwrite metadata in the journal until we guarantee that the dirty metadata has been written back in place and is stable. 2. we cannot write back dirty metadata until it has been written to the journal and guaranteed to be stable (and hence recoverable) in the journal. The ordering guarantees of #1 are provided by REQ_PREFLUSH. This causes the journal IO to issue a cache flush and wait for it to complete before issuing the write IO to the journal. Hence all completed metadata IO is guaranteed to be stable before the journal overwrites the old metadata. The ordering guarantees of #2 are provided by the REQ_FUA, which ensures the journal writes do not complete until they are on stable storage. Hence by the time the last journal IO in a checkpoint completes, we know that the entire checkpoint is on stable storage and we can unpin the dirty metadata and allow it to be written back. This is the mechanism by which ordering was first implemented in XFS way back in 2002 by commit 95d97c36e5155075ba2eb22b17562cfcc53fcf96 ("Add support for drive write cache flushing") in the xfs-archive tree. A lot has changed since then, most notably we now use delayed logging to checkpoint the filesystem to the journal rather than write each individual transaction to the journal. Cache flushes on journal IO are necessary when individual transactions are wholly contained within a single iclog. However, CIL checkpoints are single transactions that typically span hundreds to thousands of individual journal writes, and so the requirements for device cache flushing have changed. That is, the ordering rules I state above apply to ordering of atomic transactions recorded in the journal, not to the journal IO itself. Hence we need to ensure metadata is stable before we start writing a new transaction to the journal (guarantee #1), and we need to ensure the entire transaction is stable in the journal before we start metadata writeback (guarantee #2). Hence we only need a REQ_PREFLUSH on the journal IO that starts a new journal transaction to provide #1, and it is not on any other journal IO done within the context of that journal transaction. The CIL checkpoint already issues a cache flush before it starts writing to the log, so we no longer need the iclog IO to issue a REQ_REFLUSH for us. Hence if XLOG_START_TRANS is passed to xlog_write(), we no longer need to mark the first iclog in the log write with REQ_PREFLUSH for this case. As an added bonus, this ordering mechanism works for both internal and external logs, meaning we can remove the explicit data device cache flushes from the iclog write code when using external logs. Given the new ordering semantics of commit records for the CIL, we need iclogs containing commit records to issue a REQ_PREFLUSH. We also require unmount records to do this. Hence for both XLOG_COMMIT_TRANS and XLOG_UNMOUNT_TRANS xlog_write() calls we need to mark the first iclog being written with REQ_PREFLUSH. For both commit records and unmount records, we also want them immediately on stable storage, so we want to also mark the iclogs that contain these records to be marked REQ_FUA. That means if a record is split across multiple iclogs, they are all marked REQ_FUA and not just the last one so that when the transaction is completed all the parts of the record are on stable storage. And for external logs, unmount records need a pre-write data device cache flush similar to the CIL checkpoint cache pre-flush as the internal iclog write code does not do this implicitly anymore. As an optimisation, when the commit record lands in the same iclog as the journal transaction starts, we don't need to wait for anything and can simply use REQ_FUA to provide guarantee #2. This means that for fsync() heavy workloads, the cache flush behaviour is completely unchanged and there is no degradation in performance as a result of optimise the multi-IO transaction case. The most notable sign that there is less IO latency on my test machine (nvme SSDs) is that the "noiclogs" rate has dropped substantially. This metric indicates that the CIL push is blocking in xlog_get_iclog_space() waiting for iclog IO completion to occur. With 8 iclogs of 256kB, the rate is appoximately 1 noiclog event to every 4 iclog writes. IOWs, every 4th call to xlog_get_iclog_space() is blocking waiting for log IO. With the changes in this patch, this drops to 1 noiclog event for every 100 iclog writes. Hence it is clear that log IO is completing much faster than it was previously, but it is also clear that for large iclog sizes, this isn't the performance limiting factor on this hardware. With smaller iclogs (32kB), however, there is a substantial difference. With the cache flush modifications, the journal is now running at over 4000 write IOPS, and the journal throughput is largely identical to the 256kB iclogs and the noiclog event rate stays low at about 1:50 iclog writes. The existing code tops out at about 2500 IOPS as the number of cache flushes dominate performance and latency. The noiclog event rate is about 1:4, and the performance variance is quite large as the journal throughput can fall to less than half the peak sustained rate when the cache flush rate prevents metadata writeback from keeping up and the log runs out of space and throttles reservations. As a result: logbsize fsmark create rate rm -rf before 32kb 152851+/-5.3e+04 5m28s patched 32kb 221533+/-1.1e+04 5m24s before 256kb 220239+/-6.2e+03 4m58s patched 256kb 228286+/-9.2e+03 5m06s The rm -rf times are included because I ran them, but the differences are largely noise. This workload is largely metadata read IO latency bound and the changes to the journal cache flushing doesn't really make any noticable difference to behaviour apart from a reduction in noiclog events from background CIL pushing.

xfs: sync lazy sb accounting on quiesce of read-only mounts xfs_log_sbcount() syncs the superblock specifically to accumulate the in-core percpu superblock counters and commit them to disk. This is required to maintain filesystem consistency across quiesce (freeze, read-only mount/remount) or unmount when lazy superblock accounting is enabled because individual transactions do not update the superblock directly. This mechanism works as expected for writable mounts, but xfs_log_sbcount() skips the update for read-only mounts. Read-only mounts otherwise still allow log recovery and write out an unmount record during log quiesce. If a read-only mount performs log recovery, it can modify the in-core superblock counters and write an unmount record when the filesystem unmounts without ever syncing the in-core counters. This leaves the filesystem with a clean log but in an inconsistent state with regard to lazy sb counters. Update xfs_log_sbcount() to use the same logic xfs_log_unmount_write() uses to determine when to write an unmount record. This ensures that lazy accounting is always synced before the log is cleaned. Refactor this logic into a new helper to distinguish between a writable filesystem and a writable log. Specifically, the log is writable unless the filesystem is mounted with the norecovery mount option, the underlying log device is read-only, or the filesystem is shutdown. Drop the freeze state check because the update is already allowed during the freezing process and no context calls this function on an already frozen fs. Also, retain the shutdown check in xfs_log_unmount_write() to catch the case where the preceding log force might have triggered a shutdown.

xfs: cover the log during log quiesce The log quiesce mechanism historically terminates by marking the log clean with an unmount record. The primary objective is to indicate that log recovery is no longer required after the quiesce has flushed all in-core changes and written back filesystem metadata. While this is perfectly fine, it is somewhat hacky as currently used in certain contexts. For example, filesystem freeze quiesces (i.e. cleans) the log and immediately redirties it with a dummy superblock transaction to ensure that log recovery runs in the event of a crash. While this functions correctly, cleaning the log from freeze context is clearly superfluous given the current redirtying behavior. Instead, the desired behavior can be achieved by simply covering the log. This effectively retires all on-disk log items from the active range of the log by issuing two synchronous and sequential dummy superblock update transactions that serve to update the on-disk log head and tail. The subtle difference is that the log technically remains dirty due to the lack of an unmount record, though recovery is effectively a no-op due to the content of the checkpoints being clean (i.e. the unmodified on-disk superblock). Log covering currently runs in the background and only triggers once the filesystem and log has idled. The purpose of the background mechanism is to prevent log recovery from replaying the most recently logged items long after those items may have been written back. In the quiesce path, the log has been deliberately idled by forcing the log and pushing the AIL until empty in a context where no further mutable filesystem operations are allowed. Therefore, we can cover the log as the final step in the log quiesce codepath to reflect that all previously active items have been successfully written back. This facilitates selective log covering from certain contexts (i.e. freeze) that only seek to quiesce, but not necessarily clean the log. Note that as a side effect of this change, log covering now occurs when cleaning the log as well. This is harmless, facilitates subsequent cleanups, and is mostly temporary as various operations switch to use explicit log covering.

xfs: cover the log during log quiesce The log quiesce mechanism historically terminates by marking the log clean with an unmount record. The primary objective is to indicate that log recovery is no longer required after the quiesce has flushed all in-core changes and written back filesystem metadata. While this is perfectly fine, it is somewhat hacky as currently used in certain contexts. For example, filesystem freeze quiesces (i.e. cleans) the log and immediately redirties it with a dummy superblock transaction to ensure that log recovery runs in the event of a crash. While this functions correctly, cleaning the log from freeze context is clearly superfluous given the current redirtying behavior. Instead, the desired behavior can be achieved by simply covering the log. This effectively retires all on-disk log items from the active range of the log by issuing two synchronous and sequential dummy superblock update transactions that serve to update the on-disk log head and tail. The subtle difference is that the log technically remains dirty due to the lack of an unmount record, though recovery is effectively a no-op due to the content of the checkpoints being clean (i.e. the unmodified on-disk superblock). Log covering currently runs in the background and only triggers once the filesystem and log has idled. The purpose of the background mechanism is to prevent log recovery from replaying the most recently logged items long after those items may have been written back. In the quiesce path, the log has been deliberately idled by forcing the log and pushing the AIL until empty in a context where no further mutable filesystem operations are allowed. Therefore, we can cover the log as the final step in the log quiesce codepath to reflect that all previously active items have been successfully written back. This facilitates selective log covering from certain contexts (i.e. freeze) that only seek to quiesce, but not necessarily clean the log. Note that as a side effect of this change, log covering now occurs when cleaning the log as well.

[XFS] Move AIL pushing into it's own thread When many hundreds to thousands of threads all try to do simultaneous transactions and the log is in a tail-pushing situation (i.e. full), we can get multiple threads walking the AIL list and contending on the AIL lock. The AIL push is, in effect, a simple I/O dispatch algorithm complicated by the ordering constraints placed on it by the transaction subsystem. It really does not need multiple threads to push on it - even when only a single CPU is pushing the AIL, it can push the I/O out far faster that pretty much any disk subsystem can handle. So, to avoid contention problems stemming from multiple list walkers, move the list walk off into another thread and simply provide a "target" to push to. When a thread requires a push, it sets the target and wakes the push thread, then goes to sleep waiting for the required amount of space to become available in the log. This mechanism should also be a lot fairer under heavy load as the waiters will queue in arrival order, rather than queuing in "who completed a push first" order. Also, by moving the pushing to a separate thread we can do more effectively overload detection and prevention as we can keep context from loop iteration to loop iteration. That is, we can push only part of the list each loop and not have to loop back to the start of the list every time we run. This should also help by reducing the number of items we try to lock and/or push items that we cannot move. Note that this patch is not intended to solve the inefficiencies in the AIL structure and the associated issues with extremely large list contents. That needs to be addresses separately; parallel access would cause problems to any new structure as well, so I'm only aiming to isolate the structure from unbounded parallelism here.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that should not be used in production yet. We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List (CIL) is for. The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable this tracking. To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space log required/used by the context checkpoint. To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item, rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL. Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point back at the memory buffer we just copied into. This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it again. The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update all the tickets, counters, etc correctly. Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time. Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event. Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during Io completion to complete the checkpoint. We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with. To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

xfs: prevent deadlock trying to cover an active log Recent analysis of a deadlocked XFS filesystem from a kernel crash dump indicated that the filesystem was stuck waiting for log space. The short story of the hang on the RHEL6 kernel is this: - the tail of the log is pinned by an inode - the inode has been pushed by the xfsaild - the inode has been flushed to it's backing buffer and is currently flush locked and hence waiting for backing buffer IO to complete and remove it from the AIL - the backing buffer is marked for write - it is on the delayed write queue - the inode buffer has been modified directly and logged recently due to unlinked inode list modification - the backing buffer is pinned in memory as it is in the active CIL context. - the xfsbufd won't start buffer writeback because it is pinned - xfssyncd won't force the log because it sees the log as needing to be covered and hence wants to issue a dummy transaction to move the log covering state machine along. Hence there is no trigger to force the CIL to the log and hence unpin the inode buffer and therefore complete the inode IO, remove it from the AIL and hence move the tail of the log along, allowing transactions to start again. Mainline kernels also have the same deadlock, though the signature is slightly different - the inode buffer never reaches the delayed write lists because xfs_buf_item_push() sees that it is pinned and hence never adds it to the delayed write list that the xfsaild flushes. There are two possible solutions here. The first is to simply force the log before trying to cover the log and so ensure that the CIL is emptied before we try to reserve space for the dummy transaction in the xfs_log_worker(). While this might work most of the time, it is still racy and is no guarantee that we don't get stuck in xfs_trans_reserve waiting for log space to come free. Hence it's not the best way to solve the problem. The second solution is to modify xfs_log_need_covered() to be aware of the CIL. We only should be attempting to cover the log if there is no current activity in the log - covering the log is the process of ensuring that the head and tail in the log on disk are identical (i.e. the log is clean and at idle). Hence, by definition, if there are items in the CIL then the log is not at idle and so we don't need to attempt to cover it. When we don't need to cover the log because it is active or idle, we issue a log force from xfs_log_worker() - if the log is idle, then this does nothing. However, if the log is active due to there being items in the CIL, it will force the items in the CIL to the log and unpin them. In the case of the above deadlock scenario, instead of xfs_log_worker() getting stuck in xfs_trans_reserve() attempting to cover the log, it will instead force the log, thereby unpinning the inode buffer, allowing IO to be issued and complete and hence removing the inode that was pinning the tail of the log from the AIL. At that point, everything will start moving along again. i.e. the xfs_log_worker turns back into a watchdog that can alleviate deadlocks based around pinned items that prevent the tail of the log from being moved...

xfs: ensure that sync updates the log tail correctly Updates to the VFS layer removed an extra ->sync_fs call into the filesystem during the sync process (from the quota code). Unfortunately the sync code was unknowingly relying on this call to make sure metadata buffers were flushed via a xfs_buftarg_flush() call to move the tail of the log forward in memory before the final transactions of the sync process were issued. As a result, the old code would write a very recent log tail value to the log by the end of the sync process, and so a subsequent crash would leave nothing for log recovery to do. Hence in qa test 182, log recovery only replayed a small handle for inode fsync transactions in this case. However, with the removal of the extra ->sync_fs call, the log tail was now not moved forward with the inode fsync transactions near the end of the sync procese the first (and only) buftarg flush occurred after these transactions went to disk. The result is that log recovery now sees a large number of transactions for metadata that is already on disk. This usually isn't a problem, but when the transactions include inode chunk allocation, the inode create transactions and all subsequent changes are replayed as we cannt rely on what is on disk is valid. As a result, if the inode was written and contains unlogged changes, the unlogged changes are lost, thereby violating sync semantics. The fix is to always issue a transaction after the buftarg flush occurs is the log iѕ not idle or covered. This results in a dummy transaction being written that contains the up-to-date log tail value, which will be very recent. Indeed, it will be at least as recent as the old code would have left on disk, so log recovery will behave exactly as it used to in this situation.

The short story of the hang on the RHEL6 kernel is this: - the tail of the log is pinned by an inode - the inode has been pushed by the xfsaild - the inode has been flushed to it's backing buffer and is currently flush locked and hence waiting for backing buffer IO to complete and remove it from the AIL - the backing buffer is marked for write - it is on the delayed write queue - the inode buffer has been modified directly and logged recently due to unlinked inode list modification - the backing buffer is pinned in memory as it is in the active CIL context. - the xfsbufd won't start buffer writeback because it is pinned - xfssyncd won't force the log because it sees the log as needing to be covered and hence wants to issue a dummy transaction to move the log covering state machine along. Hence there is no trigger to force the CIL to the log and hence unpin the inode buffer and therefore complete the inode IO, remove it from the AIL and hence move the tail of the log along, allowing transactions to start again. Mainline kernels also have the same deadlock, though the signature is slightly different - the inode buffer never reaches the delayed write lists because xfs_buf_item_push() sees that it is pinned and hence never adds it to the delayed write list that the xfsaild flushes. There are two possible solutions here. The first is to simply force the log before trying to cover the log and so ensure that the CIL is emptied before we try to reserve space for the dummy transaction in the xfs_log_worker(). While this might work most of the time, it is still racy and is no guarantee that we don't get stuck in xfs_trans_reserve waiting for log space to come free. Hence it's not the best way to solve the problem. The second solution is to modify xfs_log_need_covered() to be aware of the CIL. We only should be attempting to cover the log if there is no current activity in the log - covering the log is the process of ensuring that the head and tail in the log on disk are identical (i.e. the log is clean and at idle). Hence, by definition, if there are items in the CIL then the log is not at idle and so we don't need to attempt to cover it. When we don't need to cover the log because it is active or idle, we issue a log force from xfs_log_worker() - if the log is idle, then this does nothing. However, if the log is active due to there being items in the CIL, it will force the items in the CIL to the log and unpin them. In the case of the above deadlock scenario, instead of xfs_log_worker() getting stuck in xfs_trans_reserve() attempting to cover the log, it will instead force the log, thereby unpinning the inode buffer, allowing IO to be issued and complete and hence removing the inode that was pinning the tail of the log from the AIL. At that point, everything will start moving along again. i.e. the xfs_log_worker turns back into a watchdog that can alleviate deadlocks based around pinned items that prevent the tail of the log from being moved...

xfs: ensure that sync updates the log tail correctly Updates to the VFS layer removed an extra ->sync_fs call into the filesystem during the sync process (from the quota code). Unfortunately the sync code was unknowingly relying on this call to make sure metadata buffers were flushed via a xfs_buftarg_flush() call to move the tail of the log forward in memory before the final transactions of the sync process were issued. As a result, the old code would write a very recent log tail value to the log by the end of the sync process, and so a subsequent crash would leave nothing for log recovery to do. Hence in qa test 182, log recovery only replayed a small handle for inode fsync transactions in this case. However, with the removal of the extra ->sync_fs call, the log tail was now not moved forward with the inode fsync transactions near the end of the sync procese the first (and only) buftarg flush occurred after these transactions went to disk. The result is that log recovery now sees a large number of transactions for metadata that is already on disk. This usually isn't a problem, but when the transactions include inode chunk allocation, the inode create transactions and all subsequent changes are replayed as we cannt rely on what is on disk is valid. As a result, if the inode was written and contains unlogged changes, the unlogged changes are lost, thereby violating sync semantics. The fix is to always issue a transaction after the buftarg flush occurs is the log iѕ not idle or covered. This results in a dummy transaction being written that contains the up-to-date log tail value, which will be very recent. Indeed, it will be at least as recent as the old code would have left on disk, so log recovery will behave exactly as it used to in this situation.

xfs: cover the log during log quiesce The log quiesce mechanism historically terminates by marking the log clean with an unmount record. The primary objective is to indicate that log recovery is no longer required after the quiesce has flushed all in-core changes and written back filesystem metadata. While this is perfectly fine, it is somewhat hacky as currently used in certain contexts. For example, filesystem freeze quiesces (i.e. cleans) the log and immediately redirties it with a dummy superblock transaction to ensure that log recovery runs in the event of a crash. While this functions correctly, cleaning the log from freeze context is clearly superfluous given the current redirtying behavior. Instead, the desired behavior can be achieved by simply covering the log. This effectively retires all on-disk log items from the active range of the log by issuing two synchronous and sequential dummy superblock update transactions that serve to update the on-disk log head and tail. The subtle difference is that the log technically remains dirty due to the lack of an unmount record, though recovery is effectively a no-op due to the content of the checkpoints being clean (i.e. the unmodified on-disk superblock). Log covering currently runs in the background and only triggers once the filesystem and log has idled. The purpose of the background mechanism is to prevent log recovery from replaying the most recently logged items long after those items may have been written back. In the quiesce path, the log has been deliberately idled by forcing the log and pushing the AIL until empty in a context where no further mutable filesystem operations are allowed. Therefore, we can cover the log as the final step in the log quiesce codepath to reflect that all previously active items have been successfully written back. This facilitates selective log covering from certain contexts (i.e. freeze) that only seek to quiesce, but not necessarily clean the log. Note that as a side effect of this change, log covering now occurs when cleaning the log as well. This is harmless, facilitates subsequent cleanups, and is mostly temporary as various operations switch to use explicit log covering.

xfs: log shutdown triggers should only shut down the log We've got a mess on our hands. 1. xfs_trans_commit() cannot cancel transactions because the mount is shut down - that causes dirty, aborted, unlogged log items to sit unpinned in memory and potentially get written to disk before the log is shut down. Hence xfs_trans_commit() can only abort transactions when xlog_is_shutdown() is true. 2. xfs_force_shutdown() is used in places to cause the current modification to be aborted via xfs_trans_commit() because it may be impractical or impossible to cancel the transaction directly, and hence xfs_trans_commit() must cancel transactions when xfs_is_shutdown() is true in this situation. But we can't do that because of #1. 3. Log IO errors cause log shutdowns by calling xfs_force_shutdown() to shut down the mount and then the log from log IO completion. 4. xfs_force_shutdown() can result in a log force being issued, which has to wait for log IO completion before it will mark the log as shut down. If #3 races with some other shutdown trigger that runs a log force, we rely on xfs_force_shutdown() silently ignoring #3 and avoiding shutting down the log until the failed log force completes. 5. To ensure #2 always works, we have to ensure that xfs_force_shutdown() does not return until the the log is shut down. But in the case of #4, this will result in a deadlock because the log Io completion will block waiting for a log force to complete which is blocked waiting for log IO to complete.... So the very first thing we have to do here to untangle this mess is dissociate log shutdown triggers from mount shutdowns. We already have xlog_forced_shutdown, which will atomically transistion to the log a shutdown state. Due to internal asserts it cannot be called multiple times, but was done simply because the only place that could call it was xfs_do_force_shutdown() (i.e. the mount shutdown!) and that could only call it once and once only. So the first thing we do is remove the asserts. We then convert all the internal log shutdown triggers to call xlog_force_shutdown() directly instead of xfs_force_shutdown(). This allows the log shutdown triggers to shut down the log without needing to care about mount based shutdown constraints. This means we shut down the log independently of the mount and the mount may not notice this until it's next attempt to read or modify metadata. At that point (e.g. xfs_trans_commit()) it will see that the log is shutdown, error out and shutdown the mount. To ensure that all the unmount behaviours and asserts track correctly as a result of a log shutdown, propagate the shutdown up to the mount if it is not already set. This keeps the mount and log state in sync, and saves a huge amount of hassle where code fails because of a log shutdown but only checks for mount shutdowns and hence ends up doing the wrong thing. Cleaning up that mess is an exercise for another day. This enables us to address the other problems noted above in followup patches.

xfs: unmount does not wait for shutdown during unmount And interesting situation can occur if a log IO error occurs during the unmount of a filesystem. The cases reported have the same signature - the update of the superblock counters fails due to a log write IO error: XFS (dm-16): xfs_do_force_shutdown(0x2) called from line 1170 of file fs/xfs/xfs_log.c. Return address = 0xffffffffa08a44a1 XFS (dm-16): Log I/O Error Detected. Shutting down filesystem XFS (dm-16): Unable to update superblock counters. Freespace may not be correct on next mount. XFS (dm-16): xfs_log_force: error 5 returned. XFS (¿-¿¿¿): Please umount the filesystem and rectify the problem(s) It can be seen that the last line of output contains a corrupt device name - this is because the log and xfs_mount structures have already been freed by the time this message is printed. A kernel oops closely follows. The issue is that the shutdown is occurring in a separate IO completion thread to the unmount. Once the shutdown processing has started and all the iclogs are marked with XLOG_STATE_IOERROR, the log shutdown code wakes anyone waiting on a log force so they can process the shutdown error. This wakes up the unmount code that is doing a synchronous transaction to update the superblock counters. The unmount path now sees all the iclogs are marked with XLOG_STATE_IOERROR and so never waits on them again, knowing that if it does, there will not be a wakeup trigger for it and we will hang the unmount if we do. Hence the unmount runs through all the remaining code and frees all the filesystem structures while the xlog_iodone() is still processing the shutdown. When the log shutdown processing completes, xfs_do_force_shutdown() emits the "Please umount the filesystem and rectify the problem(s)" message, and xlog_iodone() then aborts all the objects attached to the iclog. An iclog that has already been freed.... The real issue here is that there is no serialisation point between the log IO and the unmount. We have serialisations points for log writes, log forces, reservations, etc, but we don't actually have any code that wakes for log IO to fully complete. We do that for all other types of object, so why not iclogbufs? Well, it turns out that we can easily do this. We've got xfs_buf handles, and that's what everyone else uses for IO serialisation. i.e. bp->b_sema. So, lets hold iclogbufs locked over IO, and only release the lock in xlog_iodone() when we are finished with the buffer. That way before we tear down the iclog, we can lock and unlock the buffer to ensure IO completion has finished completely before we tear it down.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that should not be used in production yet. We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List (CIL) is for. The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable this tracking. To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space log required/used by the context checkpoint. To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item, rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL. Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point back at the memory buffer we just copied into. This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it again. The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update all the tickets, counters, etc correctly. Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time. Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event. Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during Io completion to complete the checkpoint. We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with. To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

xfs: checksum log record ext headers based on record size The first 4 bytes of every basic block in the physical log is stamped with the current lsn. To support this mechanism, the log record header (first block of each new log record) contains space for the original first byte of each log record block before it is replaced with the lsn. The log record header has space for 32k worth of blocks. The version 2 log adds new extended record headers for each additional 32k worth of blocks beyond what is supported by the record header. The log record checksum incorporates the log record header, the extended headers and the record payload. xlog_cksum() checksums the extended headers based on log->l_iclog_heads, which specifies the number of extended headers in a log record based on the log buffer size mount option. The log buffer size is variable, however, and thus means the checksum can be calculated differently based on how a filesystem is mounted. This is problematic if a filesystem crashes and recovery occurs on a subsequent mount using a different log buffer size. For example, crash an active filesystem that is mounted with the default (32k) logbsize, attempt remount/recovery using '-o logbsize=64k' and the mount fails on or warns about log checksum failures. To avoid this problem, update xlog_cksum() to calculate the checksum based on the size of the log buffer according to the log record. The size is already included in the h_size field of the log record header and thus is available at log recovery time. Extended log record headers are also only written when the log record is large enough to require them. This makes checksum calculation of log records consistent with the extended record header mechanism as well as how on-disk records are checksummed with various log buffer size mount options.

xfs: journal IO cache flush reductions Currently every journal IO is issued as REQ_PREFLUSH | REQ_FUA to guarantee the ordering requirements the journal has w.r.t. metadata writeback. THe two ordering constraints are: 1. we cannot overwrite metadata in the journal until we guarantee that the dirty metadata has been written back in place and is stable. 2. we cannot write back dirty metadata until it has been written to the journal and guaranteed to be stable (and hence recoverable) in the journal. The ordering guarantees of #1 are provided by REQ_PREFLUSH. This causes the journal IO to issue a cache flush and wait for it to complete before issuing the write IO to the journal. Hence all completed metadata IO is guaranteed to be stable before the journal overwrites the old metadata. The ordering guarantees of #2 are provided by the REQ_FUA, which ensures the journal writes do not complete until they are on stable storage. Hence by the time the last journal IO in a checkpoint completes, we know that the entire checkpoint is on stable storage and we can unpin the dirty metadata and allow it to be written back. This is the mechanism by which ordering was first implemented in XFS way back in 2002 by commit 95d97c36e5155075ba2eb22b17562cfcc53fcf96 ("Add support for drive write cache flushing") in the xfs-archive tree. A lot has changed since then, most notably we now use delayed logging to checkpoint the filesystem to the journal rather than write each individual transaction to the journal. Cache flushes on journal IO are necessary when individual transactions are wholly contained within a single iclog. However, CIL checkpoints are single transactions that typically span hundreds to thousands of individual journal writes, and so the requirements for device cache flushing have changed. That is, the ordering rules I state above apply to ordering of atomic transactions recorded in the journal, not to the journal IO itself. Hence we need to ensure metadata is stable before we start writing a new transaction to the journal (guarantee #1), and we need to ensure the entire transaction is stable in the journal before we start metadata writeback (guarantee #2). Hence we only need a REQ_PREFLUSH on the journal IO that starts a new journal transaction to provide #1, and it is not on any other journal IO done within the context of that journal transaction. The CIL checkpoint already issues a cache flush before it starts writing to the log, so we no longer need the iclog IO to issue a REQ_REFLUSH for us. Hence if XLOG_START_TRANS is passed to xlog_write(), we no longer need to mark the first iclog in the log write with REQ_PREFLUSH for this case. As an added bonus, this ordering mechanism works for both internal and external logs, meaning we can remove the explicit data device cache flushes from the iclog write code when using external logs. Given the new ordering semantics of commit records for the CIL, we need iclogs containing commit records to issue a REQ_PREFLUSH. We also require unmount records to do this. Hence for both XLOG_COMMIT_TRANS and XLOG_UNMOUNT_TRANS xlog_write() calls we need to mark the first iclog being written with REQ_PREFLUSH. For both commit records and unmount records, we also want them immediately on stable storage, so we want to also mark the iclogs that contain these records to be marked REQ_FUA. That means if a record is split across multiple iclogs, they are all marked REQ_FUA and not just the last one so that when the transaction is completed all the parts of the record are on stable storage. And for external logs, unmount records need a pre-write data device cache flush similar to the CIL checkpoint cache pre-flush as the internal iclog write code does not do this implicitly anymore. As an optimisation, when the commit record lands in the same iclog as the journal transaction starts, we don't need to wait for anything and can simply use REQ_FUA to provide guarantee #2. This means that for fsync() heavy workloads, the cache flush behaviour is completely unchanged and there is no degradation in performance as a result of optimise the multi-IO transaction case. The most notable sign that there is less IO latency on my test machine (nvme SSDs) is that the "noiclogs" rate has dropped substantially. This metric indicates that the CIL push is blocking in xlog_get_iclog_space() waiting for iclog IO completion to occur. With 8 iclogs of 256kB, the rate is appoximately 1 noiclog event to every 4 iclog writes. IOWs, every 4th call to xlog_get_iclog_space() is blocking waiting for log IO. With the changes in this patch, this drops to 1 noiclog event for every 100 iclog writes. Hence it is clear that log IO is completing much faster than it was previously, but it is also clear that for large iclog sizes, this isn't the performance limiting factor on this hardware. With smaller iclogs (32kB), however, there is a substantial difference. With the cache flush modifications, the journal is now running at over 4000 write IOPS, and the journal throughput is largely identical to the 256kB iclogs and the noiclog event rate stays low at about 1:50 iclog writes. The existing code tops out at about 2500 IOPS as the number of cache flushes dominate performance and latency. The noiclog event rate is about 1:4, and the performance variance is quite large as the journal throughput can fall to less than half the peak sustained rate when the cache flush rate prevents metadata writeback from keeping up and the log runs out of space and throttles reservations. As a result: logbsize fsmark create rate rm -rf before 32kb 152851+/-5.3e+04 5m28s patched 32kb 221533+/-1.1e+04 5m24s before 256kb 220239+/-6.2e+03 4m58s patched 256kb 228286+/-9.2e+03 5m06s The rm -rf times are included because I ran them, but the differences are largely noise. This workload is largely metadata read IO latency bound and the changes to the journal cache flushing doesn't really make any noticable difference to behaviour apart from a reduction in noiclog events from background CIL pushing.

Hence we only need a REQ_PREFLUSH on the journal IO that starts a new journal transaction to provide #1, and it is not on any other journal IO done within the context of that journal transaction. The CIL checkpoint already issues a cache flush before it starts writing to the log, so we no longer need the iclog IO to issue a REQ_REFLUSH for us. Hence if XLOG_START_TRANS is passed to xlog_write(), we no longer need to mark the first iclog in the log write with REQ_PREFLUSH for this case. As an added bonus, this ordering mechanism works for both internal and external logs, meaning we can remove the explicit data device cache flushes from the iclog write code when using external logs. Given the new ordering semantics of commit records for the CIL, we need iclogs containing commit records to issue a REQ_PREFLUSH. We also require unmount records to do this. Hence for both XLOG_COMMIT_TRANS and XLOG_UNMOUNT_TRANS xlog_write() calls we need to mark the first iclog being written with REQ_PREFLUSH. For both commit records and unmount records, we also want them immediately on stable storage, so we want to also mark the iclogs that contain these records to be marked REQ_FUA. That means if a record is split across multiple iclogs, they are all marked REQ_FUA and not just the last one so that when the transaction is completed all the parts of the record are on stable storage. And for external logs, unmount records need a pre-write data device cache flush similar to the CIL checkpoint cache pre-flush as the internal iclog write code does not do this implicitly anymore. As an optimisation, when the commit record lands in the same iclog as the journal transaction starts, we don't need to wait for anything and can simply use REQ_FUA to provide guarantee #2. This means that for fsync() heavy workloads, the cache flush behaviour is completely unchanged and there is no degradation in performance as a result of optimise the multi-IO transaction case. The most notable sign that there is less IO latency on my test machine (nvme SSDs) is that the "noiclogs" rate has dropped substantially. This metric indicates that the CIL push is blocking in xlog_get_iclog_space() waiting for iclog IO completion to occur. With 8 iclogs of 256kB, the rate is appoximately 1 noiclog event to every 4 iclog writes. IOWs, every 4th call to xlog_get_iclog_space() is blocking waiting for log IO. With the changes in this patch, this drops to 1 noiclog event for every 100 iclog writes. Hence it is clear that log IO is completing much faster than it was previously, but it is also clear that for large iclog sizes, this isn't the performance limiting factor on this hardware. With smaller iclogs (32kB), however, there is a substantial difference. With the cache flush modifications, the journal is now running at over 4000 write IOPS, and the journal throughput is largely identical to the 256kB iclogs and the noiclog event rate stays low at about 1:50 iclog writes. The existing code tops out at about 2500 IOPS as the number of cache flushes dominate performance and latency. The noiclog event rate is about 1:4, and the performance variance is quite large as the journal throughput can fall to less than half the peak sustained rate when the cache flush rate prevents metadata writeback from keeping up and the log runs out of space and throttles reservations. As a result: logbsize fsmark create rate rm -rf before 32kb 152851+/-5.3e+04 5m28s patched 32kb 221533+/-1.1e+04 5m24s before 256kb 220239+/-6.2e+03 4m58s patched 256kb 228286+/-9.2e+03 5m06s The rm -rf times are included because I ran them, but the differences are largely noise. This workload is largely metadata read IO latency bound and the changes to the journal cache flushing doesn't really make any noticable difference to behaviour apart from a reduction in noiclog events from background CIL pushing.

xfs: log shutdown triggers should only shut down the log We've got a mess on our hands. 1. xfs_trans_commit() cannot cancel transactions because the mount is shut down - that causes dirty, aborted, unlogged log items to sit unpinned in memory and potentially get written to disk before the log is shut down. Hence xfs_trans_commit() can only abort transactions when xlog_is_shutdown() is true. 2. xfs_force_shutdown() is used in places to cause the current modification to be aborted via xfs_trans_commit() because it may be impractical or impossible to cancel the transaction directly, and hence xfs_trans_commit() must cancel transactions when xfs_is_shutdown() is true in this situation. But we can't do that because of #1. 3. Log IO errors cause log shutdowns by calling xfs_force_shutdown() to shut down the mount and then the log from log IO completion. 4. xfs_force_shutdown() can result in a log force being issued, which has to wait for log IO completion before it will mark the log as shut down. If #3 races with some other shutdown trigger that runs a log force, we rely on xfs_force_shutdown() silently ignoring #3 and avoiding shutting down the log until the failed log force completes. 5. To ensure #2 always works, we have to ensure that xfs_force_shutdown() does not return until the the log is shut down. But in the case of #4, this will result in a deadlock because the log Io completion will block waiting for a log force to complete which is blocked waiting for log IO to complete.... So the very first thing we have to do here to untangle this mess is dissociate log shutdown triggers from mount shutdowns. We already have xlog_forced_shutdown, which will atomically transistion to the log a shutdown state. Due to internal asserts it cannot be called multiple times, but was done simply because the only place that could call it was xfs_do_force_shutdown() (i.e. the mount shutdown!) and that could only call it once and once only. So the first thing we do is remove the asserts. We then convert all the internal log shutdown triggers to call xlog_force_shutdown() directly instead of xfs_force_shutdown(). This allows the log shutdown triggers to shut down the log without needing to care about mount based shutdown constraints. This means we shut down the log independently of the mount and the mount may not notice this until it's next attempt to read or modify metadata. At that point (e.g. xfs_trans_commit()) it will see that the log is shutdown, error out and shutdown the mount. To ensure that all the unmount behaviours and asserts track correctly as a result of a log shutdown, propagate the shutdown up to the mount if it is not already set. This keeps the mount and log state in sync, and saves a huge amount of hassle where code fails because of a log shutdown but only checks for mount shutdowns and hence ends up doing the wrong thing. Cleaning up that mess is an exercise for another day. This enables us to address the other problems noted above in followup patches.

xfs: journal IO cache flush reductions Currently every journal IO is issued as REQ_PREFLUSH | REQ_FUA to guarantee the ordering requirements the journal has w.r.t. metadata writeback. THe two ordering constraints are: 1. we cannot overwrite metadata in the journal until we guarantee that the dirty metadata has been written back in place and is stable. 2. we cannot write back dirty metadata until it has been written to the journal and guaranteed to be stable (and hence recoverable) in the journal. The ordering guarantees of #1 are provided by REQ_PREFLUSH. This causes the journal IO to issue a cache flush and wait for it to complete before issuing the write IO to the journal. Hence all completed metadata IO is guaranteed to be stable before the journal overwrites the old metadata. The ordering guarantees of #2 are provided by the REQ_FUA, which ensures the journal writes do not complete until they are on stable storage. Hence by the time the last journal IO in a checkpoint completes, we know that the entire checkpoint is on stable storage and we can unpin the dirty metadata and allow it to be written back. This is the mechanism by which ordering was first implemented in XFS way back in 2002 by commit 95d97c36e5155075ba2eb22b17562cfcc53fcf96 ("Add support for drive write cache flushing") in the xfs-archive tree. A lot has changed since then, most notably we now use delayed logging to checkpoint the filesystem to the journal rather than write each individual transaction to the journal. Cache flushes on journal IO are necessary when individual transactions are wholly contained within a single iclog.

With the cache flush modifications, the journal is now running at over 4000 write IOPS, and the journal throughput is largely identical to the 256kB iclogs and the noiclog event rate stays low at about 1:50 iclog writes. The existing code tops out at about 2500 IOPS as the number of cache flushes dominate performance and latency. The noiclog event rate is about 1:4, and the performance variance is quite large as the journal throughput can fall to less than half the peak sustained rate when the cache flush rate prevents metadata writeback from keeping up and the log runs out of space and throttles reservations. As a result: logbsize fsmark create rate rm -rf before 32kb 152851+/-5.3e+04 5m28s patched 32kb 221533+/-1.1e+04 5m24s before 256kb 220239+/-6.2e+03 4m58s patched 256kb 228286+/-9.2e+03 5m06s The rm -rf times are included because I ran them, but the differences are largely noise. This workload is largely metadata read IO latency bound and the changes to the journal cache flushing doesn't really make any noticable difference to behaviour apart from a reduction in noiclog events from background CIL pushing.

When generic/475 runs, it starts fsstress in the background, waits a few seconds, and substitutes a dm-error device to simulate a disk falling out of a machine. If the fsstress encounters EIO on a pure data write, it will exit but the filesystem will still be online. The next thing the test does is unmount the filesystem, which tries to clean the log, free the CIL, and wait for iclog IO completion. If an iclog was being written when the dm-error switch occurred, it can race with log unmounting as follows: Thread 1 Thread 2 xfs_log_unmount xfs_log_clean xfs_log_quiesce xlog_ioend_work <observe error> xlog_force_shutdown test_and_set_bit(XLOG_IOERROR) xfs_log_force <log is shut down, nop> xfs_log_umount_write <log is shut down, nop> xlog_dealloc_log xlog_cil_destroy <wait for iclogs> spin_lock(&log->l_cilp->xc_push_lock) <KABOOM> Therefore, free the CIL after waiting for the iclogs to complete. I /think/ this race has existed for quite a few years now, though I don't remember the ~2014 era logging code well enough to know if it was a real threat then or if the actual race was exposed only more recently.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that should not be used in production yet. We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List (CIL) is for. The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable this tracking. To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space log required/used by the context checkpoint. To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item, rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL. Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point back at the memory buffer we just copied into. This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it again. The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update all the tickets, counters, etc correctly. Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time. Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event. Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during Io completion to complete the checkpoint. We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with. To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

xfs: log ticket region debug is largely useless xlog_tic_add_region() is used to trace the regions being added to a log ticket to provide information in the situation where a ticket reservation overrun occurs. The information gathered is stored int the ticket, and dumped if xlog_print_tic_res() is called. For a front end struct xfs_trans overrun, the ticket only contains reservation tracking information - the ticket is never handed to the log so has no regions attached to it. The overrun debug information in this case comes from xlog_print_trans(), which walks the items attached to the transaction and dumps their attached formatted log vectors directly. It also dumps the ticket state, but that only contains reservation accounting and nothing else. Hence xlog_print_tic_res() never dumps region or overrun information from this path. xlog_tic_add_region() is actually called from xlog_write(), which means it is being used to track the regions seen in a CIL checkpoint log vector chain. In looking at CIL behaviour recently, I've seen 32MB checkpoints regularly exceed 250,000 regions in the LV chain. The log ticket debug code can track *15* regions. IOWs, if there is a ticket overrun in the CIL code, the ticket region tracking code is going to be completely useless for determining what went wrong. The only thing it can tell us is how much of an overrun occurred, and we really don't need extra debug information in the log ticket to tell us that. Indeed, the main place we call xlog_tic_add_region() is also adding up the number of regions and the space used so that xlog_write() knows how much will be written to the log. This is exactly the same information that log ticket is storing once we take away the useless region tracking array. Hence xlog_tic_add_region() is not useful, but can be called 250,000 times a CIL push... Just strip all that debug "information" out of the of the log ticket and only have it report reservation space information when an overrun occurs.

xfs: xlog_sync() manually adjusts grant head space When xlog_sync() rounds off the tail the iclog that is being flushed, it manually subtracts that space from the grant heads. This space is actually reserved by the transaction ticket that covers the xlog_sync() call from xlog_write(), but we don't plumb the ticket down far enough for it to account for the space consumed in the current log ticket. The grant heads are hot, so we really should be accounting this to the ticket is we can, rather than adding thousands of extra grant head updates every CIL commit. Interestingly, this actually indicates a potential log space overrun can occur when we force the log. By the time that xfs_log_force() pushes out an active iclog and consumes the roundoff space, the reservation for that roundoff space has been returned to the grant heads and is no longer covered by a reservation. In theory the roundoff added to log force on an already full log could push the write head past the tail. In practice, the CIL commit that writes to the log and needs the iclog pushed will have reserved space for roundoff, so when it releases the ticket there will still be physical space for the roundoff to be committed to the log, even though it is no longer reserved. This roundoff won't be enough space to allow a transaction to be woken if the log is full, so overruns should not actually occur in practice. That said, it indicates that we should not release the CIL context log ticket until after we've released the commit iclog. It also means that xlog_sync() still needs the direct grant head manipulation if we don't provide it with a ticket. Log forces are rare when we are in fast paths running 1.5 million transactions/s that make the grant heads hot, so let's optimise the hot case and pass CIL log tickets down to the xlog_sync() code.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that should not be used in production yet. We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List (CIL) is for. The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable this tracking. To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space log required/used by the context checkpoint. To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item, rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL. Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point back at the memory buffer we just copied into. This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it again. The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update all the tickets, counters, etc correctly. Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time. Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event. Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during Io completion to complete the checkpoint. We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with. To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

xfs: log shutdown triggers should only shut down the log We've got a mess on our hands. 1. xfs_trans_commit() cannot cancel transactions because the mount is shut down - that causes dirty, aborted, unlogged log items to sit unpinned in memory and potentially get written to disk before the log is shut down. Hence xfs_trans_commit() can only abort transactions when xlog_is_shutdown() is true. 2. xfs_force_shutdown() is used in places to cause the current modification to be aborted via xfs_trans_commit() because it may be impractical or impossible to cancel the transaction directly, and hence xfs_trans_commit() must cancel transactions when xfs_is_shutdown() is true in this situation. But we can't do that because of #1. 3. Log IO errors cause log shutdowns by calling xfs_force_shutdown() to shut down the mount and then the log from log IO completion. 4. xfs_force_shutdown() can result in a log force being issued, which has to wait for log IO completion before it will mark the log as shut down. If #3 races with some other shutdown trigger that runs a log force, we rely on xfs_force_shutdown() silently ignoring #3 and avoiding shutting down the log until the failed log force completes. 5. To ensure #2 always works, we have to ensure that xfs_force_shutdown() does not return until the the log is shut down. But in the case of #4, this will result in a deadlock because the log Io completion will block waiting for a log force to complete which is blocked waiting for log IO to complete.... So the very first thing we have to do here to untangle this mess is dissociate log shutdown triggers from mount shutdowns. We already have xlog_forced_shutdown, which will atomically transistion to the log a shutdown state. Due to internal asserts it cannot be called multiple times, but was done simply because the only place that could call it was xfs_do_force_shutdown() (i.e. the mount shutdown!) and that could only call it once and once only. So the first thing we do is remove the asserts. We then convert all the internal log shutdown triggers to call xlog_force_shutdown() directly instead of xfs_force_shutdown(). This allows the log shutdown triggers to shut down the log without needing to care about mount based shutdown constraints. This means we shut down the log independently of the mount and the mount may not notice this until it's next attempt to read or modify metadata. At that point (e.g. xfs_trans_commit()) it will see that the log is shutdown, error out and shutdown the mount. To ensure that all the unmount behaviours and asserts track correctly as a result of a log shutdown, propagate the shutdown up to the mount if it is not already set. This keeps the mount and log state in sync, and saves a huge amount of hassle where code fails because of a log shutdown but only checks for mount shutdowns and hence ends up doing the wrong thing. Cleaning up that mess is an exercise for another day. This enables us to address the other problems noted above in followup patches.

xfs: limit iclog tail updates From the department of "generic/482 keeps on giving", we bring you another tail update race condition: iclog: S1 C1 +-----------------------+-----------------------+ S2 EOIC Two checkpoints in a single iclog. One is complete, the other just contains the start record and overruns into a new iclog. Timeline: Before S1: Cache flush, log tail = X At S1: Metadata stable, write start record and checkpoint At C1: Write commit record, set NEED_FUA Single iclog checkpoint, so no need for NEED_FLUSH Log tail still = X, so no need for NEED_FLUSH After C1, Before S2: Cache flush, log tail = X At S2: Metadata stable, write start record and checkpoint After S2: Log tail moves to X+1 At EOIC: End of iclog, more journal data to write Releases iclog Not a commit iclog, so no need for NEED_FLUSH Writes log tail X+1 into iclog. At this point, the iclog has tail X+1 and NEED_FUA set. There has been no cache flush for the metadata between X and X+1, and the iclog writes the new tail permanently to the log. THis is sufficient to violate on disk metadata/journal ordering. We have two options here. The first is to detect this case in some manner and ensure that the partial checkpoint write sets NEED_FLUSH when the iclog is already marked NEED_FUA and the log tail changes. This seems somewhat fragile and quite complex to get right, and it doesn't actually make it obvious what underlying problem it is actually addressing from reading the code. The second option seems much cleaner to me, because it is derived directly from the requirements of the C1 commit record in the iclog. That is, when we write this commit record to the iclog, we've guaranteed that the metadata/data ordering is correct for tail update purposes. Hence if we only write the log tail into the iclog for the *first* commit record rather than the log tail at the last release, we guarantee that the log tail does not move past where the the first commit record in the log expects it to be. IOWs, taking the first option means that replay of C1 becomes dependent on future operations doing the right thing, not just the C1 checkpoint itself doing the right thing. This makes log recovery almost impossible to reason about because now we have to take into account what might or might not have happened in the future when looking at checkpoints in the log rather than just having to reconstruct the past...

By contrast, if the log is active or only partially covered at unmount time, a final superblock sync would doubly serve as the one or two remaining syncs required to cover the log. This duplicate covering sequence is unnecessary because the filesystem remains consistent if a crash occurs at any point. The superblock will either be recovered in the event of a crash or written back before the log is quiesced and potentially cleaned with an unmount record.

xfs: xlog_sync() manually adjusts grant head space When xlog_sync() rounds off the tail the iclog that is being flushed, it manually subtracts that space from the grant heads. This space is actually reserved by the transaction ticket that covers the xlog_sync() call from xlog_write(), but we don't plumb the ticket down far enough for it to account for the space consumed in the current log ticket. The grant heads are hot, so we really should be accounting this to the ticket is we can, rather than adding thousands of extra grant head updates every CIL commit. Interestingly, this actually indicates a potential log space overrun can occur when we force the log. By the time that xfs_log_force() pushes out an active iclog and consumes the roundoff space, the reservation for that roundoff space has been returned to the grant heads and is no longer covered by a reservation. In theory the roundoff added to log force on an already full log could push the write head past the tail. In practice, the CIL commit that writes to the log and needs the iclog pushed will have reserved space for roundoff, so when it releases the ticket there will still be physical space for the roundoff to be committed to the log, even though it is no longer reserved. This roundoff won't be enough space to allow a transaction to be woken if the log is full, so overruns should not actually occur in practice. That said, it indicates that we should not release the CIL context log ticket until after we've released the commit iclog. It also means that xlog_sync() still needs the direct grant head manipulation if we don't provide it with a ticket. Log forces are rare when we are in fast paths running 1.5 million transactions/s that make the grant heads hot, so let's optimise the hot case and pass CIL log tickets down to the xlog_sync() code.

xfs: event tracing support Convert the old xfs tracing support that could only be used with the out of tree kdb and xfsidbg patches to use the generic event tracer. To use it make sure CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is enabled and then enable all xfs trace channels by: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/enable or alternatively enable single events by just doing the same in one event subdirectory, e.g. echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/xfs_ihold/enable or set more complex filters, etc. In Documentation/trace/events.txt all this is desctribed in more detail. To reads the events do a cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter, allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various spots in XFS. Take a look at http://lwn.net/Articles/346470/ for some examples. Also the btree tracing isn't included at all yet, as it will require additional core tracing features not in mainline yet, I plan to deliver it later.

xfs: event tracing support Convert the old xfs tracing support that could only be used with the out of tree kdb and xfsidbg patches to use the generic event tracer. To use it make sure CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is enabled and then enable all xfs trace channels by: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/enable or alternatively enable single events by just doing the same in one event subdirectory, e.g. echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/xfs_ihold/enable or set more complex filters, etc. In Documentation/trace/events.txt all this is desctribed in more detail. To reads the events do a cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter, allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various spots in XFS.

xfs: AIL needs asynchronous CIL forcing The AIL pushing is stalling on log forces when it comes across pinned items. This is happening on removal workloads where the AIL is dominated by stale items that are removed from AIL when the checkpoint that marks the items stale is committed to the journal. This results is relatively few items in the AIL, but those that are are often pinned as directories items are being removed from are still being logged. As a result, many push cycles through the CIL will first issue a blocking log force to unpin the items. This can take some time to complete, with tracing regularly showing push delays of half a second and sometimes up into the range of several seconds. Sequences like this aren't uncommon: .... 399.829437: xfsaild: last lsn 0x11002dd000 count 101 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 270ms delay> 400.099622: xfsaild: target 0x11002f3600, prev 0x11002f3600, last lsn 0x0 400.099623: xfsaild: first lsn 0x11002f3600 400.099679: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100305000 count 16 stuck 11 flushing 0 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 500ms delay> 400.589348: xfsaild: target 0x110032e600, prev 0x11002f3600, last lsn 0x0 400.589349: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100305000 400.589595: xfsaild: last lsn 0x110032e600 count 156 stuck 101 flushing 30 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 460ms delay> 400.950341: xfsaild: target 0x1100353000, prev 0x110032e600, last lsn 0x0 400.950343: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100317c00 400.950436: xfsaild: last lsn 0x110033d200 count 105 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 200ms delay> 401.142333: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100353000, last lsn 0x0 401.142334: xfsaild: first lsn 0x110032e600 401.142535: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100353000 count 122 stuck 101 flushing 8 tout 10 <wanted 10ms, got 10ms delay> 401.154323: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x1100353000 401.154328: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100353000 401.154389: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100353000 count 101 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 300ms delay> 401.451525: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x0 401.451526: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100353000 401.451804: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100377200 count 170 stuck 22 flushing 122 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 500ms delay> 401.933581: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x0 .... In each of these cases, every AIL pass saw 101 log items stuck on the AIL (pinned) with very few other items being found. Each pass, a log force was issued, and delay between last/first is the sleep time + the sync log force time. Some of these 101 items pinned the tail of the log. The tail of the log does slowly creep forward (first lsn), but the problem is that the log is actually out of reservation space because it's been running so many transactions that stale items that never reach the AIL but consume log space. Hence we have a largely empty AIL, with long term pins on items that pin the tail of the log that don't get pushed frequently enough to keep log space available. The problem is the hundreds of milliseconds that we block in the log force pushing the CIL out to disk. The AIL should not be stalled like this - it needs to run and flush items that are at the tail of the log with minimal latency. What we really need to do is trigger a log flush, but then not wait for it at all - we've already done our waiting for stuff to complete when we backed off prior to the log force being issued. Even if we remove the XFS_LOG_SYNC from the xfs_log_force() call, we still do a blocking flush of the CIL and that is what is causing the issue. Hence we need a new interface for the CIL to trigger an immediate background push of the CIL to get it moving faster but not to wait on that to occur. While the CIL is pushing, the AIL can also be pushing. We already have an internal interface to do this - xlog_cil_push_now() - but we need a wrapper for it to be used externally. xlog_cil_force_seq() can easily be extended to do what we need as it already implements the synchronous CIL push via xlog_cil_push_now(). Add the necessary flags and "push current sequence" semantics to xlog_cil_force_seq() and convert the AIL pushing to use it. One of the complexities here is that the CIL push does not guarantee that the commit record for the CIL checkpoint is written to disk. The current log force ensures this by submitting the current ACTIVE iclog that the commit record was written to. We need the CIL to actually write this commit record to disk for an async push to ensure that the checkpoint actually makes it to disk and unpins the pinned items in the checkpoint on completion. Hence we need to pass down to the CIL push that we are doing an async flush so that it can switch out the commit_iclog if necessary to get written to disk when the commit iclog is finally released.

xfs: validate metadata LSNs against log on v5 superblocks Since the onset of v5 superblocks, the LSN of the last modification has been included in a variety of on-disk data structures. This LSN is used to provide log recovery ordering guarantees (e.g., to ensure an older log recovery item is not replayed over a newer target data structure). While this works correctly from the point a filesystem is formatted and mounted, userspace tools have some problematic behaviors that defeat this mechanism. For example, xfs_repair historically zeroes out the log unconditionally (regardless of whether corruption is detected). If this occurs, the LSN of the filesystem is reset and the log is now in a problematic state with respect to on-disk metadata structures that might have a larger LSN. Until either the log catches up to the highest previously used metadata LSN or each affected data structure is modified and written out without incident (which resets the metadata LSN), log recovery is susceptible to filesystem corruption. This problem is ultimately addressed and repaired in the associated userspace tools. The kernel is still responsible to detect the problem and notify the user that something is wrong. Check the superblock LSN at mount time and fail the mount if it is invalid. From that point on, trigger verifier failure on any metadata I/O where an invalid LSN is detected. This results in a filesystem shutdown and guarantees that we do not log metadata changes with invalid LSNs on disk. Since this is a known issue with a known recovery path, present a warning to instruct the user how to recover.

xfs: Introduce delayed logging core code The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that should not be used in production yet. We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List (CIL) is for. The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable this tracking. To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space log required/used by the context checkpoint. To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item, rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL. Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point back at the memory buffer we just copied into. This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it again. The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update all the tickets, counters, etc correctly. Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time. Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event. Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during Io completion to complete the checkpoint. We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with. To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

xfs: log forces imply data device cache flushes After fixing the tail_lsn vs cache flush race, generic/482 continued to fail in a similar way where cache flushes were missing before iclog FUA writes. Tracing of iclog state changes during the fsstress workload portion of the test (via xlog_iclog* events) indicated that iclog writes were coming from two sources - CIL pushes and log forces (due to fsync/O_SYNC operations). All of the cases where a recovery problem was triggered indicated that the log force was the source of the iclog write that was not preceeded by a cache flush. This was an oversight in the modifications made in commit eef983ffeae7 ("xfs: journal IO cache flush reductions"). Log forces for fsync imply a data device cache flush has been issued if an iclog was flushed to disk and is indicated to the caller via the log_flushed parameter so they can elide the device cache flush if the journal issued one. The change in eef983ffeae7 results in iclogs only issuing a cache flush if XLOG_ICL_NEED_FLUSH is set on the iclog, but this was not added to the iclogs that the log force code flushes to disk. Hence log forces are no longer guaranteeing that a cache flush is issued, hence opening up a potential on-disk ordering failure. Log forces should also set XLOG_ICL_NEED_FUA as well to ensure that the actual iclogs it forces to the journal are also on stable storage before it returns to the caller. This patch introduces the xlog_force_iclog() helper function to encapsulate the process of taking a reference to an iclog, switching its state if WANT_SYNC and flushing it to stable storage correctly. Both xfs_log_force() and xfs_log_force_lsn() are converted to use it, as is xlog_unmount_write() which has an elaborate method of doing exactly the same "write this iclog to stable storage" operation. Further, if the log force code needs to wait on a iclog in the WANT_SYNC state, it needs to ensure that iclog also results in a cache flush being issued. This covers the case where the iclog contains the commit record of the CIL flush that the log force triggered, but it hasn't been written yet because there is still an active reference to the iclog. Note: this whole cache flush whack-a-mole patch is a result of log forces still being iclog state centric rather than being CIL sequence centric. Most of this nasty code will go away in future when log forces are converted to wait on CIL sequence push completion rather than iclog completion. With the CIL push algorithm guaranteeing that the CIL checkpoint is fully on stable storage when it completes, we no longer need to iterate iclogs and push them to ensure a CIL sequence push has completed and so all this nasty iclog iteration and flushing code will go away.

xfs: AIL needs asynchronous CIL forcing The AIL pushing is stalling on log forces when it comes across pinned items. This is happening on removal workloads where the AIL is dominated by stale items that are removed from AIL when the checkpoint that marks the items stale is committed to the journal. This results is relatively few items in the AIL, but those that are are often pinned as directories items are being removed from are still being logged. As a result, many push cycles through the CIL will first issue a blocking log force to unpin the items. This can take some time to complete, with tracing regularly showing push delays of half a second and sometimes up into the range of several seconds. Sequences like this aren't uncommon: .... 399.829437: xfsaild: last lsn 0x11002dd000 count 101 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 270ms delay> 400.099622: xfsaild: target 0x11002f3600, prev 0x11002f3600, last lsn 0x0 400.099623: xfsaild: first lsn 0x11002f3600 400.099679: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100305000 count 16 stuck 11 flushing 0 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 500ms delay> 400.589348: xfsaild: target 0x110032e600, prev 0x11002f3600, last lsn 0x0 400.589349: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100305000 400.589595: xfsaild: last lsn 0x110032e600 count 156 stuck 101 flushing 30 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 460ms delay> 400.950341: xfsaild: target 0x1100353000, prev 0x110032e600, last lsn 0x0 400.950343: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100317c00 400.950436: xfsaild: last lsn 0x110033d200 count 105 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 200ms delay> 401.142333: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100353000, last lsn 0x0 401.142334: xfsaild: first lsn 0x110032e600 401.142535: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100353000 count 122 stuck 101 flushing 8 tout 10 <wanted 10ms, got 10ms delay> 401.154323: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x1100353000 401.154328: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100353000 401.154389: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100353000 count 101 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 300ms delay> 401.451525: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x0 401.451526: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100353000 401.451804: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100377200 count 170 stuck 22 flushing 122 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 500ms delay> 401.933581: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x0 .... In each of these cases, every AIL pass saw 101 log items stuck on the AIL (pinned) with very few other items being found. Each pass, a log force was issued, and delay between last/first is the sleep time + the sync log force time. Some of these 101 items pinned the tail of the log. The tail of the log does slowly creep forward (first lsn), but the problem is that the log is actually out of reservation space because it's been running so many transactions that stale items that never reach the AIL but consume log space. Hence we have a largely empty AIL, with long term pins on items that pin the tail of the log that don't get pushed frequently enough to keep log space available. The problem is the hundreds of milliseconds that we block in the log force pushing the CIL out to disk. The AIL should not be stalled like this - it needs to run and flush items that are at the tail of the log with minimal latency. What we really need to do is trigger a log flush, but then not wait for it at all - we've already done our waiting for stuff to complete when we backed off prior to the log force being issued. Even if we remove the XFS_LOG_SYNC from the xfs_log_force() call, we still do a blocking flush of the CIL and that is what is causing the issue. Hence we need a new interface for the CIL to trigger an immediate background push of the CIL to get it moving faster but not to wait on that to occur. While the CIL is pushing, the AIL can also be pushing. We already have an internal interface to do this - xlog_cil_push_now() - but we need a wrapper for it to be used externally. xlog_cil_force_seq() can easily be extended to do what we need as it already implements the synchronous CIL push via xlog_cil_push_now(). Add the necessary flags and "push current sequence" semantics to xlog_cil_force_seq() and convert the AIL pushing to use it. One of the complexities here is that the CIL push does not guarantee that the commit record for the CIL checkpoint is written to disk. The current log force ensures this by submitting the current ACTIVE iclog that the commit record was written to. We need the CIL to actually write this commit record to disk for an async push to ensure that the checkpoint actually makes it to disk and unpins the pinned items in the checkpoint on completion. Hence we need to pass down to the CIL push that we are doing an async flush so that it can switch out the commit_iclog if necessary to get written to disk when the commit iclog is finally released.

xfs: xfs_log_force_lsn isn't passed a LSN In doing an investigation into AIL push stalls, I was looking at the log force code to see if an async CIL push could be done instead. This lead me to xfs_log_force_lsn() and looking at how it works. xfs_log_force_lsn() is only called from inode synchronisation contexts such as fsync(), and it takes the ip->i_itemp->ili_last_lsn value as the LSN to sync the log to. This gets passed to xlog_cil_force_lsn() via xfs_log_force_lsn() to flush the CIL to the journal, and then used by xfs_log_force_lsn() to flush the iclogs to the journal. The problem is that ip->i_itemp->ili_last_lsn does not store a log sequence number. What it stores is passed to it from the ->iop_committing method, which is called by xfs_log_commit_cil(). The value this passes to the iop_committing method is the CIL context sequence number that the item was committed to. As it turns out, xlog_cil_force_lsn() converts the sequence to an actual commit LSN for the related context and returns that to xfs_log_force_lsn(). xfs_log_force_lsn() overwrites it's "lsn" variable that contained a sequence with an actual LSN and then uses that to sync the iclogs. This caused me some confusion for a while, even though I originally wrote all this code a decade ago. ->iop_committing is only used by a couple of log item types, and only inode items use the sequence number it is passed. Let's clean up the API, CIL structures and inode log item to call it a sequence number, and make it clear that the high level code is using CIL sequence numbers and not on-disk LSNs for integrity synchronisation purposes.

xfs: log forces imply data device cache flushes After fixing the tail_lsn vs cache flush race, generic/482 continued to fail in a similar way where cache flushes were missing before iclog FUA writes. Tracing of iclog state changes during the fsstress workload portion of the test (via xlog_iclog* events) indicated that iclog writes were coming from two sources - CIL pushes and log forces (due to fsync/O_SYNC operations). All of the cases where a recovery problem was triggered indicated that the log force was the source of the iclog write that was not preceeded by a cache flush. This was an oversight in the modifications made in commit eef983ffeae7 ("xfs: journal IO cache flush reductions"). Log forces for fsync imply a data device cache flush has been issued if an iclog was flushed to disk and is indicated to the caller via the log_flushed parameter so they can elide the device cache flush if the journal issued one. The change in eef983ffeae7 results in iclogs only issuing a cache flush if XLOG_ICL_NEED_FLUSH is set on the iclog, but this was not added to the iclogs that the log force code flushes to disk. Hence log forces are no longer guaranteeing that a cache flush is issued, hence opening up a potential on-disk ordering failure. Log forces should also set XLOG_ICL_NEED_FUA as well to ensure that the actual iclogs it forces to the journal are also on stable storage before it returns to the caller. This patch introduces the xlog_force_iclog() helper function to encapsulate the process of taking a reference to an iclog, switching its state if WANT_SYNC and flushing it to stable storage correctly. Both xfs_log_force() and xfs_log_force_lsn() are converted to use it, as is xlog_unmount_write() which has an elaborate method of doing exactly the same "write this iclog to stable storage" operation. Further, if the log force code needs to wait on a iclog in the WANT_SYNC state, it needs to ensure that iclog also results in a cache flush being issued. This covers the case where the iclog contains the commit record of the CIL flush that the log force triggered, but it hasn't been written yet because there is still an active reference to the iclog. Note: this whole cache flush whack-a-mole patch is a result of log forces still being iclog state centric rather than being CIL sequence centric.

xfs: AIL needs asynchronous CIL forcing The AIL pushing is stalling on log forces when it comes across pinned items. This is happening on removal workloads where the AIL is dominated by stale items that are removed from AIL when the checkpoint that marks the items stale is committed to the journal. This results is relatively few items in the AIL, but those that are are often pinned as directories items are being removed from are still being logged. As a result, many push cycles through the CIL will first issue a blocking log force to unpin the items. This can take some time to complete, with tracing regularly showing push delays of half a second and sometimes up into the range of several seconds. Sequences like this aren't uncommon: .... 399.829437: xfsaild: last lsn 0x11002dd000 count 101 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 270ms delay> 400.099622: xfsaild: target 0x11002f3600, prev 0x11002f3600, last lsn 0x0 400.099623: xfsaild: first lsn 0x11002f3600 400.099679: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100305000 count 16 stuck 11 flushing 0 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 500ms delay> 400.589348: xfsaild: target 0x110032e600, prev 0x11002f3600, last lsn 0x0 400.589349: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100305000 400.589595: xfsaild: last lsn 0x110032e600 count 156 stuck 101 flushing 30 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 460ms delay> 400.950341: xfsaild: target 0x1100353000, prev 0x110032e600, last lsn 0x0 400.950343: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100317c00 400.950436: xfsaild: last lsn 0x110033d200 count 105 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 200ms delay> 401.142333: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100353000, last lsn 0x0 401.142334: xfsaild: first lsn 0x110032e600 401.142535: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100353000 count 122 stuck 101 flushing 8 tout 10 <wanted 10ms, got 10ms delay> 401.154323: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x1100353000 401.154328: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100353000 401.154389: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100353000 count 101 stuck 101 flushing 0 tout 20 <wanted 20ms, got 300ms delay> 401.451525: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x0 401.451526: xfsaild: first lsn 0x1100353000 401.451804: xfsaild: last lsn 0x1100377200 count 170 stuck 22 flushing 122 tout 50 <wanted 50ms, got 500ms delay> 401.933581: xfsaild: target 0x1100361600, prev 0x1100361600, last lsn 0x0 .... In each of these cases, every AIL pass saw 101 log items stuck on the AIL (pinned) with very few other items being found. Each pass, a log force was issued, and delay between last/first is the sleep time + the sync log force time. Some of these 101 items pinned the tail of the log. The tail of the log does slowly creep forward (first lsn), but the problem is that the log is actually out of reservation space because it's been running so many transactions that stale items that never reach the AIL but consume log space. Hence we have a largely empty AIL, with long term pins on items that pin the tail of the log that don't get pushed frequently enough to keep log space available. The problem is the hundreds of milliseconds that we block in the log force pushing the CIL out to disk. The AIL should not be stalled like this - it needs to run and flush items that are at the tail of the log with minimal latency. What we really need to do is trigger a log flush, but then not wait for it at all - we've already done our waiting for stuff to complete when we backed off prior to the log force being issued. Even if we remove the XFS_LOG_SYNC from the xfs_log_force() call, we still do a blocking flush of the CIL and that is what is causing the issue. Hence we need a new interface for the CIL to trigger an immediate background push of the CIL to get it moving faster but not to wait on that to occur. While the CIL is pushing, the AIL can also be pushing. We already have an internal interface to do this - xlog_cil_push_now() - but we need a wrapper for it to be used externally. xlog_cil_force_seq() can easily be extended to do what we need as it already implements the synchronous CIL push via xlog_cil_push_now(). Add the necessary flags and "push current sequence" semantics to xlog_cil_force_seq() and convert the AIL pushing to use it. One of the complexities here is that the CIL push does not guarantee that the commit record for the CIL checkpoint is written to disk. The current log force ensures this by submitting the current ACTIVE iclog that the commit record was written to. We need the CIL to actually write this commit record to disk for an async push to ensure that the checkpoint actually makes it to disk and unpins the pinned items in the checkpoint on completion. Hence we need to pass down to the CIL push that we are doing an async flush so that it can switch out the commit_iclog if necessary to get written to disk when the commit iclog is finally released.

xfs: xfs_log_force_lsn isn't passed a LSN In doing an investigation into AIL push stalls, I was looking at the log force code to see if an async CIL push could be done instead. This lead me to xfs_log_force_lsn() and looking at how it works. xfs_log_force_lsn() is only called from inode synchronisation contexts such as fsync(), and it takes the ip->i_itemp->ili_last_lsn value as the LSN to sync the log to. This gets passed to xlog_cil_force_lsn() via xfs_log_force_lsn() to flush the CIL to the journal, and then used by xfs_log_force_lsn() to flush the iclogs to the journal. The problem is that ip->i_itemp->ili_last_lsn does not store a log sequence number. What it stores is passed to it from the ->iop_committing method, which is called by xfs_log_commit_cil(). The value this passes to the iop_committing method is the CIL context sequence number that the item was committed to. As it turns out, xlog_cil_force_lsn() converts the sequence to an actual commit LSN for the related context and returns that to xfs_log_force_lsn(). xfs_log_force_lsn() overwrites it's "lsn" variable that contained a sequence with an actual LSN and then uses that to sync the iclogs. This caused me some confusion for a while, even though I originally wrote all this code a decade ago. ->iop_committing is only used by a couple of log item types, and only inode items use the sequence number it is passed. Let's clean up the API, CIL structures and inode log item to call it a sequence number, and make it clear that the high level code is using CIL sequence numbers and not on-disk LSNs for integrity synchronisation purposes.

This gets passed to xlog_cil_force_lsn() via xfs_log_force_lsn() to flush the CIL to the journal, and then used by xfs_log_force_lsn() to flush the iclogs to the journal. The problem is that ip->i_itemp->ili_last_lsn does not store a log sequence number. What it stores is passed to it from the ->iop_committing method, which is called by xfs_log_commit_cil(). The value this passes to the iop_committing method is the CIL context sequence number that the item was committed to. As it turns out, xlog_cil_force_lsn() converts the sequence to an actual commit LSN for the related context and returns that to xfs_log_force_lsn(). xfs_log_force_lsn() overwrites it's "lsn" variable that contained a sequence with an actual LSN and then uses that to sync the iclogs. This caused me some confusion for a while, even though I originally wrote all this code a decade ago. ->iop_committing is only used by a couple of log item types, and only inode items use the sequence number it is passed. Let's clean up the API, CIL structures and inode log item to call it a sequence number, and make it clear that the high level code is using CIL sequence numbers and not on-disk LSNs for integrity synchronisation purposes.

xfs: rework per-iclog header CIL reservation For every iclog that a CIL push will use up, we need to ensure we have space reserved for the iclog header in each iclog. It is extremely difficult to do this accurately with a per-cpu counter without expensive summing of the counter in every commit. However, we know what the maximum CIL size is going to be because of the hard space limit we have, and hence we know exactly how many iclogs we are going to need to write out the CIL. We are constrained by the requirement that small transactions only have reservation space for a single iclog header built into them. At commit time we don't know how much of the current transaction reservation is made up of iclog header reservations as calculated by xfs_log_calc_unit_res() when the ticket was reserved. As larger reservations have multiple header spaces reserved, we can steal more than one iclog header reservation at a time, but we only steal the exact number needed for the given log vector size delta. As a result, we don't know exactly when we are going to steal iclog header reservations, nor do we know exactly how many we are going to need for a given CIL. To make things simple, start by calculating the worst case number of iclog headers a full CIL push will require. Record this into an atomic variable in the CIL. Then add a byte counter to the log ticket that records exactly how much iclog header space has been reserved in this ticket by xfs_log_calc_unit_res(). This tells us exactly how much space we can steal from the ticket at transaction commit time. Now, at transaction commit time, we can check if the CIL has a full iclog header reservation and, if not, steal the entire reservation the current ticket holds for iclog headers. This minimises the number of times we need to do atomic operations in the fast path, but still guarantees we get all the reservations we need.

xfs: log ticket reservation underestimates the number of iclogs When allocation a ticket for a transaction, the ticket is initialised with the worst case log space usage based on the number of bytes the transaction may consume. Part of this calculation is the number of log headers required for the iclog space used up by the transaction. This calculation makes an undocumented assumption that if the transaction uses the log header space reservation on an iclog, then it consumes either the entire iclog or it completes. That is - the transaction that is first in an iclog is the transaction that the log header reservation is accounted to. If the transaction is larger than the iclog, then it will use the entire iclog itself. Document this assumption. Further, the current calculation uses the rule that we can fit iclog_size bytes of transaction data into an iclog. This is in correct - the amount of space available in an iclog for transaction data is the size of the iclog minus the space used for log record headers. This means that the calculation is out by 512 bytes per 32k of log space the transaction can consume. This is rarely an issue because maximally sized transactions are extremely uncommon, and for 4k block size filesystems maximal transaction reservations are about 400kb. Hence the error in this case is less than the size of an iclog, so that makes it even harder to hit. However, anyone using larger directory blocks (16k directory blocks push the maximum transaction size to approx. 900k on a 4k block size filesystem) or larger block size (e.g. 64k blocks push transactions to the 3-4MB size) could see the error grow to more than an iclog and at this point the transaction is guaranteed to get a reservation underrun and shutdown the filesystem. Fix this by adjusting the calculation to calculate the correct number of iclogs required and account for them all up front.

xfs: log shutdown triggers should only shut down the log We've got a mess on our hands. 1. xfs_trans_commit() cannot cancel transactions because the mount is shut down - that causes dirty, aborted, unlogged log items to sit unpinned in memory and potentially get written to disk before the log is shut down. Hence xfs_trans_commit() can only abort transactions when xlog_is_shutdown() is true. 2. xfs_force_shutdown() is used in places to cause the current modification to be aborted via xfs_trans_commit() because it may be impractical or impossible to cancel the transaction directly, and hence xfs_trans_commit() must cancel transactions when xfs_is_shutdown() is true in this situation. But we can't do that because of #1. 3. Log IO errors cause log shutdowns by calling xfs_force_shutdown() to shut down the mount and then the log from log IO completion. 4. xfs_force_shutdown() can result in a log force being issued, which has to wait for log IO completion before it will mark the log as shut down. If #3 races with some other shutdown trigger that runs a log force, we rely on xfs_force_shutdown() silently ignoring #3 and avoiding shutting down the log until the failed log force completes. 5. To ensure #2 always works, we have to ensure that xfs_force_shutdown() does not return until the the log is shut down. But in the case of #4, this will result in a deadlock because the log Io completion will block waiting for a log force to complete which is blocked waiting for log IO to complete.... So the very first thing we have to do here to untangle this mess is dissociate log shutdown triggers from mount shutdowns. We already have xlog_forced_shutdown, which will atomically transistion to the log a shutdown state. Due to internal asserts it cannot be called multiple times, but was done simply because the only place that could call it was xfs_do_force_shutdown() (i.e. the mount shutdown!) and that could only call it once and once only. So the first thing we do is remove the asserts. We then convert all the internal log shutdown triggers to call xlog_force_shutdown() directly instead of xfs_force_shutdown(). This allows the log shutdown triggers to shut down the log without needing to care about mount based shutdown constraints. This means we shut down the log independently of the mount and the mount may not notice this until it's next attempt to read or modify metadata. At that point (e.g. xfs_trans_commit()) it will see that the log is shutdown, error out and shutdown the mount. To ensure that all the unmount behaviours and asserts track correctly as a result of a log shutdown, propagate the shutdown up to the mount if it is not already set. This keeps the mount and log state in sync, and saves a huge amount of hassle where code fails because of a log shutdown but only checks for mount shutdowns and hence ends up doing the wrong thing. Cleaning up that mess is an exercise for another day. This enables us to address the other problems noted above in followup patches.

xfs: make forced shutdown processing atomic The running of a forced shutdown is a bit of a mess.

Move the checking and setting of XFS_MOUNT_SHUTDOWN into xfs_do_force_shutdown() so we only process a shutdown once and once only. Serialise this with the mp->m_sb_lock spinlock so that the state change is atomic and won't race. Move all the mount specific shutdown state changes from xfs_log_force_unmount() to xfs_do_force_shutdown() so they are done atomically with setting XFS_MOUNT_SHUTDOWN. Then get rid of the racy xlog_is_shutdown() check from xlog_force_shutdown(), and gate the log shutdown on the test_and_set_bit(XLOG_IO_ERROR) test under the icloglock. This means that the log is shutdown once and once only, and code that needs to prevent races with shutdown can do so by holding the icloglock and checking the return value of xlog_is_shutdown(). This results in a predictable shutdown execution process - we set the shutdown flags once and process the shutdown once rather than the current "as many concurrent shutdowns as can race to the flag setting" situation we have now. Also, now that shutdown is atomic, alway emit a stack trace when the error level for the filesystem is high enough.

xfs: log shutdown triggers should only shut down the log We've got a mess on our hands. 1. xfs_trans_commit() cannot cancel transactions because the mount is shut down - that causes dirty, aborted, unlogged log items to sit unpinned in memory and potentially get written to disk before the log is shut down. Hence xfs_trans_commit() can only abort transactions when xlog_is_shutdown() is true. 2. xfs_force_shutdown() is used in places to cause the current modification to be aborted via xfs_trans_commit() because it may be impractical or impossible to cancel the transaction directly, and hence xfs_trans_commit() must cancel transactions when xfs_is_shutdown() is true in this situation. But we can't do that because of #1. 3. Log IO errors cause log shutdowns by calling xfs_force_shutdown() to shut down the mount and then the log from log IO completion. 4. xfs_force_shutdown() can result in a log force being issued, which has to wait for log IO completion before it will mark the log as shut down. If #3 races with some other shutdown trigger that runs a log force, we rely on xfs_force_shutdown() silently ignoring #3 and avoiding shutting down the log until the failed log force completes. 5. To ensure #2 always works, we have to ensure that xfs_force_shutdown() does not return until the the log is shut down. But in the case of #4, this will result in a deadlock because the log Io completion will block waiting for a log force to complete which is blocked waiting for log IO to complete.... So the very first thing we have to do here to untangle this mess is dissociate log shutdown triggers from mount shutdowns. We already have xlog_forced_shutdown, which will atomically transistion to the log a shutdown state. Due to internal asserts it cannot be called multiple times, but was done simply because the only place that could call it was xfs_do_force_shutdown() (i.e. the mount shutdown!) and that could only call it once and once only. So the first thing we do is remove the asserts. We then convert all the internal log shutdown triggers to call xlog_force_shutdown() directly instead of xfs_force_shutdown(). This allows the log shutdown triggers to shut down the log without needing to care about mount based shutdown constraints. This means we shut down the log independently of the mount and the mount may not notice this until it's next attempt to read or modify metadata. At that point (e.g. xfs_trans_commit()) it will see that the log is shutdown, error out and shutdown the mount. To ensure that all the unmount behaviours and asserts track correctly as a result of a log shutdown, propagate the shutdown up to the mount if it is not already set. This keeps the mount and log state in sync, and saves a huge amount of hassle where code fails because of a log shutdown but only checks for mount shutdowns and hence ends up doing the wrong thing. Cleaning up that mess is an exercise for another day. This enables us to address the other problems noted above in followup patches.

xfs: order CIL checkpoint start records Because log recovery depends on strictly ordered start records as well as strictly ordered commit records. This is a zero day bug in the way XFS writes pipelined transactions to the journal which is exposed by fixing the zero day bug that prevents the CIL from pipelining checkpoints. This re-introduces explicit concurrent commits back into the on-disk journal and hence out of order start records. The XFS journal commit code has never ordered start records and we have relied on strict commit record ordering for correct recovery ordering of concurrently written transactions. Unfortunately, root cause analysis uncovered the fact that log recovery uses the LSN of the start record for transaction commit processing. Hence, whilst the commits are processed in strict order by recovery, the LSNs associated with the commits can be out of order and so recovery may stamp incorrect LSNs into objects and/or misorder intents in the AIL for later processing. This can result in log recovery failures and/or on disk corruption, sometimes silent. Because this is a long standing log recovery issue, we can't just fix log recovery and call it good. This still leaves older kernels susceptible to recovery failures and corruption when replaying a log from a kernel that pipelines checkpoints. There is also the issue that in-memory ordering for AIL pushing and data integrity operations are based on checkpoint start LSNs, and if the start LSN is incorrect in the journal, it is also incorrect in memory. Hence there's really only one choice for fixing this zero-day bug: we need to strictly order checkpoint start records in ascending sequence order in the log, the same way we already strictly order commit records.

xfs: xfs_do_force_shutdown needs to block racing shutdowns When we call xfs_forced_shutdown(), the caller often expects the filesystem to be completely shut down when it returns. However, if we have racing xfs_forced_shutdown() calls, the first caller sets the mount shutdown flag then goes to shutdown the log. The second caller sees the mount shutdown flag and returns immediately - it does not wait for the log to be shut down. Unfortunately, xfs_forced_shutdown() is used in some places that expect it to completely shut down the filesystem before it returns (e.g. xfs_trans_log_inode()). As such, returning before the log has been shut down leaves us in a place where the transaction failed to complete correctly but we still call xfs_trans_commit(). This situation arises because xfs_trans_log_inode() does not return an error and instead calls xfs_force_shutdown() to ensure that the transaction being committed is aborted. Unfortunately, we have a race condition where xfs_trans_commit() needs to check xlog_is_shutdown() because it can't abort log items before the log is shut down, but it needs to use xfs_is_shutdown() because xfs_forced_shutdown() does not block waiting for the log to shut down. To fix this conundrum, first we make all calls to xfs_forced_shutdown() block until the log is also shut down. This means we can then safely use xfs_forced_shutdown() as a mechanism that ensures the currently running transaction will be aborted by xfs_trans_commit() regardless of the shutdown check it uses.

xfs: validate metadata LSNs against log on v5 superblocks Since the onset of v5 superblocks, the LSN of the last modification has been included in a variety of on-disk data structures. This LSN is used to provide log recovery ordering guarantees (e.g., to ensure an older log recovery item is not replayed over a newer target data structure). While this works correctly from the point a filesystem is formatted and mounted, userspace tools have some problematic behaviors that defeat this mechanism. For example, xfs_repair historically zeroes out the log unconditionally (regardless of whether corruption is detected). If this occurs, the LSN of the filesystem is reset and the log is now in a problematic state with respect to on-disk metadata structures that might have a larger LSN. Until either the log catches up to the highest previously used metadata LSN or each affected data structure is modified and written out without incident (which resets the metadata LSN), log recovery is susceptible to filesystem corruption. This problem is ultimately addressed and repaired in the associated userspace tools. The kernel is still responsible to detect the problem and notify the user that something is wrong. Check the superblock LSN at mount time and fail the mount if it is invalid. From that point on, trigger verifier failure on any metadata I/O where an invalid LSN is detected. This results in a filesystem shutdown and guarantees that we do not log metadata changes with invalid LSNs on disk.
