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] 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: l_last_sync_lsn is really AIL state
The current implementation of xlog_assign_tail_lsn() assumes that
when the AIL is empty, the log tail matches the LSN of the last
written commit record. This is recorded in xlog_state_set_callback()
as log->l_last_sync_lsn when the iclog state changes to
XLOG_STATE_CALLBACK. This change is then immediately followed by
running the callbacks on the iclog which then insert the log items
into the AIL at the "commit lsn" of that checkpoint.
The AIL tracks log items via the start record LSN of the checkpoint,
not the commit record LSN. This is because we can pipeline multiple
checkpoints, and so the start record of checkpoint N+1 can be
written before the commit record of checkpoint N. i.e:
start N commit N
+-------------+------------+----------------+
start N+1 commit N+1
The tail of the log cannot be moved to the LSN of commit N when all
the items of that checkpoint are written back, because then the
start record for N+1 is no longer in the active portion of the log
and recovery will fail/corrupt the filesystem.
Hence when all the log items in checkpoint N are written back, the
tail of the log most now only move as far forwards as the start LSN
of checkpoint N+1.
Hence we cannot use the maximum start record LSN the AIL sees as a
replacement the pointer to the current head of the on-disk log
records. However, we currently only use the l_last_sync_lsn when the
AIL is empty - when there is no start LSN remaining, the tail of the
log moves to the LSN of the last commit record as this is where
recovery needs to start searching for recoverable records. THe next
checkpoint will have a start record LSN that is higher than
l_last_sync_lsn, and so everything still works correctly when new
checkpoints are written to an otherwise empty log.
l_last_sync_lsn is an atomic variable because it is currently
updated when an iclog with callbacks attached moves to the CALLBACK
state. While we hold the icloglock at this point, we don't hold the
AIL lock. When we assign the log tail, we hold the AIL lock, not the
icloglock because we have to look up the AIL. Hence it is an atomic
variable so it's not bound to a specific lock context.
However, the iclog callbacks are only used for CIL checkpoints. We
don't use callbacks with unmount record writes, so the
l_last_sync_lsn variable only gets updated when we are processing
CIL checkpoint callbacks. And those callbacks run under AIL lock
contexts, not icloglock context. The CIL checkpoint already knows
what the LSN of the iclog the commit record was written to (obtained
when written into the iclog before submission) and so we can update
the l_last_sync_lsn under the AIL lock in this callback. No other
iclog callbacks will run until the currently executing one
completes, and hence we can update the l_last_sync_lsn under the AIL
lock safely.
This means l_last_sync_lsn can move to the AIL as the "ail_head_lsn"
and it can be used to replace the atomic l_last_sync_lsn in the
iclog code. This makes tracking the log tail belong entirely to the
AIL, rather than being smeared across log, iclog and AIL state and
locking.

xfs: AIL doesn't need manual pushing
We have a mechanism that checks the amount of log space remaining
available every time we make a transaction reservation. If the
amount of space is below a threshold (25% free) we push on the AIL
to tell it to do more work. To do this, we end up calculating the
LSN that the AIL needs to push to on every reservation and updating
the push target for the AIL with that new target LSN.
This is silly and expensive. The AIL is perfectly capable of
calculating the push target itself, and it will always be running
when the AIL contains objects.
What the target does is determine if the AIL needs to do
any work before it goes back to sleep. If we haven't run out of
reservation space or memory (or some other push all trigger), it
will simply go back to sleep for a while if there is more than 25%
of the journal space free without doing anything.
If there are items in the AIL at a lower LSN than the target, it
will try to push up to the target or to the point of getting stuck
before going back to sleep and trying again soon after.`
Hence we can modify the AIL to calculate it's own 25% push target
before it starts a push using the same reserve grant head based
calculation as is currently used, and remove all the places where we
ask the AIL to push to a new 25% free target. We can also drop the
minimum free space size of 256BBs from the calculation because the
25% of a minimum sized log is *always going to be larger than
256BBs.
This does still require a manual push in certain circumstances.
These circumstances arise when the AIL is not full, but the
reservation grants consume the entire of the free space in the log.
In this case, we still need to push on the AIL to free up space, so
when we hit this condition (i.e. reservation going to sleep to wait
on log space) we do a single push to tell the AIL it should empty
itself. This will keep the AIL moving as new reservations come in
and want more space, rather than keep queuing them and having to
push the AIL repeatedly.
The reason for using the "push all" when grant space runs out is
that we can run out of grant space when there is more than 25% of
the log free. Small logs are notorious for this, and we have a hack
in the log callback code (xlog_state_set_callback()) where we push
the AIL because the *head* moved) to ensure that we kick the AIL
when we consume space in it because that can push us over the "less
than 25% available" available that starts tail pushing back up
again.
Hence when we run out of grant space and are going to sleep, we have
to consider that the grant space may be consuming almost all the log
space and there is almost nothing in the AIL. In this situation, the
AIL pins the tail and moving the tail forwards is the only way the
grant space will come available, so we have to force the AIL to push
everything to guarantee grant space will eventually be returned.
Hence triggering a "push all" just before sleeping removes all the
nasty corner cases we have in other parts of the code that work
around the "we didn't ask the AIL to push enough to free grant
space" condition that leads to log space hangs...

xfs: AIL doesn't need manual pushing
We have a mechanism that checks the amount of log space remaining
available every time we make a transaction reservation. If the
amount of space is below a threshold (25% free) we push on the AIL
to tell it to do more work. To do this, we end up calculating the
LSN that the AIL needs to push to on every reservation and updating
the push target for the AIL with that new target LSN.
This is silly and expensive. The AIL is perfectly capable of
calculating the push target itself, and it will always be running
when the AIL contains objects.
What the target does is determine if the AIL needs to do
any work before it goes back to sleep. If we haven't run out of
reservation space or memory (or some other push all trigger), it
will simply go back to sleep for a while if there is more than 25%
of the journal space free without doing anything.
If there are items in the AIL at a lower LSN than the target, it
will try to push up to the target or to the point of getting stuck
before going back to sleep and trying again soon after.`
Hence we can modify the AIL to calculate it's own 25% push target
before it starts a push using the same reserve grant head based
calculation as is currently used, and remove all the places where we
ask the AIL to push to a new 25% free target. We can also drop the
minimum free space size of 256BBs from the calculation because the
25% of a minimum sized log is *always going to be larger than
256BBs.
This does still require a manual push in certain circumstances.
These circumstances arise when the AIL is not full, but the
reservation grants consume the entire of the free space in the log.
In this case, we still need to push on the AIL to free up space, so
when we hit this condition (i.e. reservation going to sleep to wait
on log space) we do a single push to tell the AIL it should empty
itself. This will keep the AIL moving as new reservations come in
and want more space, rather than keep queuing them and having to
push the AIL repeatedly.
The reason for using the "push all" when grant space runs out is
that we can run out of grant space when there is more than 25% of
the log free. Small logs are notorious for this, and we have a hack
in the log callback code (xlog_state_set_callback()) where we push
the AIL because the *head* moved) to ensure that we kick the AIL
when we consume space in it because that can push us over the "less
than 25% available" available that starts tail pushing back up
again.
Hence when we run out of grant space and are going to sleep, we have
to consider that the grant space may be consuming almost all the log
space and there is almost nothing in the AIL. In this situation, the
AIL pins the tail and moving the tail forwards is the only way the
grant space will come available, so we have to force the AIL to push
everything to guarantee grant space will eventually be returned.
Hence triggering a "push all" just before sleeping removes all the
nasty corner cases we have in other parts of the code that work
around the "we didn't ask the AIL to push enough to free grant
space" condition that leads to log space hangs...

xfs: l_last_sync_lsn is really AIL state
The current implementation of xlog_assign_tail_lsn() assumes that
when the AIL is empty, the log tail matches the LSN of the last
written commit record. This is recorded in xlog_state_set_callback()
as log->l_last_sync_lsn when the iclog state changes to
XLOG_STATE_CALLBACK. This change is then immediately followed by
running the callbacks on the iclog which then insert the log items
into the AIL at the "commit lsn" of that checkpoint.
The AIL tracks log items via the start record LSN of the checkpoint,
not the commit record LSN. This is because we can pipeline multiple
checkpoints, and so the start record of checkpoint N+1 can be
written before the commit record of checkpoint N. i.e:
start N commit N
+-------------+------------+----------------+
start N+1 commit N+1
The tail of the log cannot be moved to the LSN of commit N when all
the items of that checkpoint are written back, because then the
start record for N+1 is no longer in the active portion of the log
and recovery will fail/corrupt the filesystem.
Hence when all the log items in checkpoint N are written back, the
tail of the log most now only move as far forwards as the start LSN
of checkpoint N+1.
Hence we cannot use the maximum start record LSN the AIL sees as a
replacement the pointer to the current head of the on-disk log
records. However, we currently only use the l_last_sync_lsn when the
AIL is empty - when there is no start LSN remaining, the tail of the
log moves to the LSN of the last commit record as this is where
recovery needs to start searching for recoverable records. THe next
checkpoint will have a start record LSN that is higher than
l_last_sync_lsn, and so everything still works correctly when new
checkpoints are written to an otherwise empty log.
l_last_sync_lsn is an atomic variable because it is currently
updated when an iclog with callbacks attached moves to the CALLBACK
state. While we hold the icloglock at this point, we don't hold the
AIL lock. When we assign the log tail, we hold the AIL lock, not the
icloglock because we have to look up the AIL. Hence it is an atomic
variable so it's not bound to a specific lock context.
However, the iclog callbacks are only used for CIL checkpoints. We
don't use callbacks with unmount record writes, so the
l_last_sync_lsn variable only gets updated when we are processing
CIL checkpoint callbacks. And those callbacks run under AIL lock
contexts, not icloglock context. The CIL checkpoint already knows
what the LSN of the iclog the commit record was written to (obtained
when written into the iclog before submission) and so we can update
the l_last_sync_lsn under the AIL lock in this callback. No other
iclog callbacks will run until the currently executing one
completes, and hence we can update the l_last_sync_lsn under the AIL
lock safely.
This means l_last_sync_lsn can move to the AIL as the "ail_head_lsn"
and it can be used to replace the atomic l_last_sync_lsn in the
iclog code. This makes tracking the log tail belong entirely to the
AIL, rather than being smeared across log, iclog and AIL state and
locking.

xfs: Properly retry failed inode items in case of error during buffer writeback
When a buffer has been failed during writeback, the inode items into it
are kept flush locked, and are never resubmitted due the flush lock, so,
if any buffer fails to be written, the items in AIL are never written to
disk and never unlocked.
This causes unmount operation to hang due these items flush locked in AIL,
but this also causes the items in AIL to never be written back, even when
the IO device comes back to normal.
I've been testing this patch with a DM-thin device, creating a
filesystem larger than the real device.
When writing enough data to fill the DM-thin device, XFS receives ENOSPC
errors from the device, and keep spinning on xfsaild (when 'retry
forever' configuration is set).
At this point, the filesystem can not be unmounted because of the flush locked
items in AIL, but worse, the items in AIL are never retried at all
(once xfs_inode_item_push() will skip the items that are flush locked),
even if the underlying DM-thin device is expanded to the proper size.
This patch fixes both cases, retrying any item that has been failed
previously, using the infra-structure provided by the previous patch.

xfs: Properly retry failed inode items in case of error during buffer writeback
When a buffer has been failed during writeback, the inode items into it
are kept flush locked, and are never resubmitted due the flush lock, so,
if any buffer fails to be written, the items in AIL are never written to
disk and never unlocked.
This causes unmount operation to hang due these items flush locked in AIL,
but this also causes the items in AIL to never be written back, even when
the IO device comes back to normal.
I've been testing this patch with a DM-thin device, creating a
filesystem larger than the real device.
When writing enough data to fill the DM-thin device, XFS receives ENOSPC
errors from the device, and keep spinning on xfsaild (when 'retry
forever' configuration is set).
At this point, the filesystem can not be unmounted because of the flush locked
items in AIL, but worse, the items in AIL are never retried at all
(once xfs_inode_item_push() will skip the items that are flush locked),
even if the underlying DM-thin device is expanded to the proper size.
This patch fixes both cases, retrying any item that has been failed
previously, using the infra-structure provided by the previous patch.
