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:

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.

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.

Now that we have a mechanism to guarantee that the callbacks
attached to an iclog are owned by the context that attaches them
until they drop their reference to the iclog via
xlog_state_release_iclog(), we can attach callbacks to the iclog at
any time we have an active reference to the iclog.
xlog_state_get_iclog_space() always guarantees that the commit
record will fit in the iclog it returns, so we can move this IO
callback setting to xlog_cil_set_ctx_write_state(), record the
commit iclog in the context and remove the need for the commit iclog
to be returned by xlog_write() altogether.
This, in turn, allows us to move the wakeup for ordered commit
record writes up into xlog_cil_set_ctx_write_state(), too, because
we have been guaranteed that this commit record will be physically
located in the iclog before any waiting commit record at a higher
sequence number will be granted iclog space.
This further cleans up the post commit record write processing in
the CIL push code, especially as xlog_state_release_iclog() will now
clean up the context when shutdown errors occur.

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.

The iclog callback processing done during a forced log shutdown has
different logic to normal runtime IO completion callback processing.
Separate out the shutdown callbacks into their own function and call
that from the shutdown code instead.
We don't need this shutdown specific logic in the normal runtime
completion code - we'll always run the shutdown version on shutdown,
and it will do what shutdown needs regardless of whether there are
racing IO completion callbacks scheduled or in progress. Hence we
can also simplify the normal IO completion callpath and only abort
if shutdown occurred while we actively were processing callbacks.
Further, separating out the IO completion logic from the shutdown
logic avoids callback race conditions from being triggered by log IO
completion after a shutdown. IO completion will now only run
callbacks on iclogs that are in the correct state for a callback to
be run, avoiding the possibility of running callbacks on a
referenced iclog that hasn't yet been submitted for IO.

The running of a forced shutdown is a bit of a mess. It does racy
checks for XFS_MOUNT_SHUTDOWN in xfs_do_force_shutdown(), then
does more racy checks in xfs_log_force_unmount() before finally
setting XFS_MOUNT_SHUTDOWN and XLOG_IO_ERROR under the
log->icloglock.
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. This means that we
always get a stack trace when trying to diagnose the cause of
shutdowns in the field, rather than just for SHUTDOWN_CORRUPT_INCORE
cases.

it is read without holding locks in many places and so using atomic

incompat feature flags, because they are flags that are temporarily set

Since it's possible that some other higher level thread is about to
start logging items protected by a log incompat flag, we create a rwsem
so that upper level threads can coordinate this with the log. It would

Essentially, we are taking a multi-order allocation from kmem_alloc()
(which has an open coded no fail, no warn loop) and then
reallocating it out to 64kB using krealloc(__GFP_NOFAIL) and that is
then triggering the above warning.
This is a regression caused by converting this code from an open
coded no fail/no warn reallocation loop to using __GFP_NOFAIL.
What we actually need here is kvrealloc(), so that if contiguous
page allocation fails we fall back to vmalloc() and we don't
get nasty warnings happening in XFS.

This patch prepares scrub to deal with the possibility of tearing down
entire AGs by changing the order of resource acquisition to match the
rest of the XFS codebase. In other words, scrub now grabs AG resources
in order of: perag structure, then AGI/AGF/AGFL buffers, then btree
cursors; and releases them in reverse order.
This requires us to distinguish xchk_ag_init callers -- some are
responding to a user request to check AG metadata, in which case we can
return ENOENT to userspace; but other callers have an ondisk reference
to an AG that they're trying to cross-reference. In this second case,
the lack of an AG means there's ondisk corruption, since ondisk metadata
cannot point into nonexistent space.

Now that we defer inode inactivation, we've decoupled the process of
unlinking or closing an inode from the process of inactivating it. In
theory this should lead to better throughput since we now inactivate the
queued inodes in batches instead of one at a time.
Unfortunately, one of the primary risks with this decoupling is the loss
of rate control feedback between the frontend and background threads.
In other words, a rm -rf /* thread can run the system out of memory if
it can queue inodes for inactivation and jump to a new CPU faster than
the background threads can actually clear the deferred work. The
workers can get scheduled off the CPU if they have to do IO, etc.
To solve this problem, we configure a shrinker so that it will activate
the /second/ time the shrinkers are called. The custom shrinker will
queue all percpu deferred inactivation workers immediately and set a
flag to force frontend callers who are releasing a vfs inode to wait for
the inactivation workers.
On my test VM with 560M of RAM and a 2TB filesystem, this seems to solve
most of the OOMing problem when deleting 10 million inodes.

Other parts of XFS have learned to call xfs_blockgc_free_{space,quota}
to try to free speculative preallocations when space is tight. This
means that file writes, transaction reservation failures, quota limit
enforcement, and the EOFBLOCKS ioctl all call this function to free
space when things are tight.
Since inode inactivation is now a background task, this means that the
filesystem can be hanging on to unlinked but not yet freed space. Add
this to the list of things that xfs_blockgc_free_* makes writer threads
scan for when they cannot reserve space.

Now that we have made the inactivation of unlinked inodes a background
task to increase the throughput of file deletions, we need to be a
little more careful about how long of a delay we can tolerate.
On a mostly empty filesystem, the risk of the allocator making poor
decisions due to fragmentation of the free space on account a lengthy
delay in background updates is minimal because there's plenty of space.
However, if free space is tight, we want to deallocate unlinked inodes
as quickly as possible to avoid fallocate ENOSPC and to give the
allocator the best shot at optimal allocations for new writes.
Therefore, queue the percpu worker immediately if the filesystem is more
than 95% full. This follows the same principle that XFS becomes less
aggressive about speculative allocations and lazy cleanup (and more
precise about accounting) when nearing full.

Move inode inactivation to background work contexts so that it no
longer runs in the context that releases the final reference to an
inode. This will allow process work that ends up blocking on
inactivation to continue doing work while the filesytem processes
the inactivation in the background.
A typical demonstration of this is unlinking an inode with lots of
extents. The extents are removed during inactivation, so this blocks
the process that unlinked the inode from the directory structure. By
moving the inactivation to the background process, the userspace
applicaiton can keep working (e.g. unlinking the next inode in the
directory) while the inactivation work on the previous inode is
done by a different CPU.
The implementation of the queue is relatively simple. We use a
per-cpu lockless linked list (llist) to queue inodes for
inactivation without requiring serialisation mechanisms, and a work
item to allow the queue to be processed by a CPU bound worker
thread. We also keep a count of the queue depth so that we can
trigger work after a number of deferred inactivations have been
queued.
The use of a bound workqueue with a single work depth allows the
workqueue to run one work item per CPU. We queue the work item on
the CPU we are currently running on, and so this essentially gives
us affine per-cpu worker threads for the per-cpu queues. THis
maintains the effective CPU affinity that occurs within XFS at the
AG level due to all objects in a directory being local to an AG.
Hence inactivation work tends to run on the same CPU that last
accessed all the objects that inactivation accesses and this
maintains hot CPU caches for unlink workloads.
A depth of 32 inodes was chosen to match the number of inodes in an
inode cluster buffer. This hopefully allows sequential
allocation/unlink behaviours to defering inactivation of all the
inodes in a single cluster buffer at a time, further helping
maintain hot CPU and buffer cache accesses while running
inactivations.
A hard per-cpu queue throttle of 256 inode has been set to avoid
runaway queuing when inodes that take a long to time inactivate are
being processed. For example, when unlinking inodes with large
numbers of extents that can take a lot of processing to free.

The inode inactivation and CIL tracking percpu structures are
per-xfs_mount structures. That means when we get a CPU dead
notification, we need to then iterate all the per-cpu structure
instances to process them. Rather than keeping linked lists of
per-cpu structures in each subsystem, add a list of all xfs_mounts
that the generic xfs_cpu_dead() function will iterate and call into
each subsystem appropriately.
This allows us to handle both per-mount and global XFS percpu state
from xfs_cpu_dead(), and avoids the need to link subsystem
structures that can be easily found from the xfs_mount into their
own global lists.
