[BUG]
With current subpage RW support, the following script can hang the fs
with 64K page size.
# mkfs.btrfs -f -s 4k $dev
# mount $dev -o nospace_cache $mnt
# fsstress -w -n 50 -p 1 -s 1607749395 -d $mnt
The kernel will do an infinite loop in btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range().
[CAUSE]
In btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range() we:
- Truncate page cache range
- Lock extent io tree
- Wait any ordered extents in the range.
We exit the loop until we meet all the following conditions:
- No ordered extent in the lock range
- No page is in the lock range
The latter condition has a pitfall, it only works for sector size ==
PAGE_SIZE case.
While can't handle the following subpage case:
0 32K 64K 96K 128K
| |///////||//////| ||
lockstart=32K
lockend=96K - 1
In this case, although the range crosses 2 pages,
truncate_pagecache_range() will invalidate no page at all, but only zero
the [32K, 96K) range of the two pages.
Thus filemap_range_has_page(32K, 96K-1) will always return true, thus we
will never meet the loop exit condition.
[FIX]
Fix the problem by doing page alignment for the lock range.
Function filemap_range_has_page() has already handled lend < lstart
case, we only need to round up @lockstart, and round_down @lockend for
truncate_pagecache_range().
This modification should not change any thing for sector size ==
PAGE_SIZE case, as in that case our range is already page aligned.

When doing a fast fsync on a file, there is a race which can result in the
fsync returning success to user space without logging the inode and without
durably persisting new data.
The following example shows one possible scenario for this:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc
$ mount /dev/sdc /mnt
$ touch /mnt/bar
$ xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xab 0 1M" -c "fsync" /mnt/baz
# Now we have:
# file bar == inode 257
# file baz == inode 258
$ mv /mnt/baz /mnt/foo
# Now we have:
# file bar == inode 257
# file foo == inode 258
$ xfs_io -c "pwrite -S 0xcd 0 1M" /mnt/foo
# fsync bar before foo, it is important to trigger the race.
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/bar
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/foo
# After this:
# inode 257, file bar, is empty
# inode 258, file foo, has 1M filled with 0xcd
<power failure>
# Replay the log:
$ mount /dev/sdc /mnt
# After this point file foo should have 1M filled with 0xcd and not 0xab
The following steps explain how the race happens:
1) Before the first fsync of inode 258, when it has the "baz" name, its
->logged_trans is 0, ->last_sub_trans is 0 and ->last_log_commit is -1.
The inode also has the full sync flag set;
2) After the first fsync, we set inode 258 ->logged_trans to 6, which is
the generation of the current transaction, and set ->last_log_commit
to 0, which is the current value of ->last_sub_trans (done at
btrfs_log_inode()).
The full sync flag is cleared from the inode during the fsync.
The log sub transaction that was committed had an ID of 0 and when we
synced the log, at btrfs_sync_log(), we incremented root->log_transid
from 0 to 1;
3) During the rename:
We update inode 258, through btrfs_update_inode(), and that causes its
->last_sub_trans to be set to 1 (the current log transaction ID), and
->last_log_commit remains with a value of 0.
After updating inode 258, because we have previously logged the inode
in the previous fsync, we log again the inode through the call to
btrfs_log_new_name(). This results in updating the inode's
->last_log_commit from 0 to 1 (the current value of its
->last_sub_trans).
The ->last_sub_trans of inode 257 is updated to 1, which is the ID of
the next log transaction;
4) Then a buffered write against inode 258 is made. This leaves the value
of ->last_sub_trans as 1 (the ID of the current log transaction, stored
at root->log_transid);
5) Then an fsync against inode 257 (or any other inode other than 258),
happens. This results in committing the log transaction with ID 1,
which results in updating root->last_log_commit to 1 and bumping
root->log_transid from 1 to 2;
6) Then an fsync against inode 258 starts. We flush delalloc and wait only
for writeback to complete, since the full sync flag is not set in the
inode's runtime flags - we do not wait for ordered extents to complete.
Then, at btrfs_sync_file(), we call btrfs_inode_in_log() before the
ordered extent completes. The call returns true:
static inline bool btrfs_inode_in_log(...)
{
bool ret = false;
spin_lock(&inode->lock);
if (inode->logged_trans == generation &&
inode->last_sub_trans <= inode->last_log_commit &&
inode->last_sub_trans <= inode->root->last_log_commit)
ret = true;
spin_unlock(&inode->lock);
return ret;
}
generation has a value of 6 (fs_info->generation), ->logged_trans also
has a value of 6 (set when we logged the inode during the first fsync
and when logging it during the rename), ->last_sub_trans has a value
of 1, set during the rename (step 3), ->last_log_commit also has a
value of 1 (set in step 3) and root->last_log_commit has a value of 1,
which was set in step 5 when fsyncing inode 257.
As a consequence we don't log the inode, any new extents and do not
sync the log, resulting in a data loss if a power failure happens
after the fsync and before the current transaction commits.
Also, because we do not log the inode, after a power failure the mtime
and ctime of the inode do not match those we had before.
When the ordered extent completes before we call btrfs_inode_in_log(),
then the call returns false and we log the inode and sync the log,
since at the end of ordered extent completion we update the inode and
set ->last_sub_trans to 2 (the value of root->log_transid) and
->last_log_commit to 1.
This problem is found after removing the check for the emptiness of the
inode's list of modified extents in the recent commit 209ecbb858
("btrfs: remove stale comment and logic from btrfs_inode_in_log()"),
added in the 5.13 merge window. However checking the emptiness of the
list is not really the way to solve this problem, and was never intended
to, because while that solves the problem for COW writes, the problem
persists for NOCOW writes because in that case the list is always empty.
In the case of NOCOW writes, even though we wait for the writeback to
complete before returning from btrfs_sync_file(), we end up not logging
the inode, which has a new mtime/ctime, and because we don't sync the log,
we never issue disk barriers (send REQ_PREFLUSH to the device) since that
only happens when we sync the log (when we write super blocks at
btrfs_sync_log()). So effectively, for a NOCOW case, when we return from
btrfs_sync_file() to user space, we are not guaranteeing that the data is
durably persisted on disk.
Also, while the example above uses a rename exchange to show how the
problem happens, it is not the only way to trigger it. An alternative
could be adding a new hard link to inode 258, since that also results
in calling btrfs_log_new_name() and updating the inode in the log.
An example reproducer using the addition of a hard link instead of a
rename operation:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc
$ mount /dev/sdc /mnt
$ touch /mnt/bar
$ xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xab 0 1M" -c "fsync" /mnt/foo
$ ln /mnt/foo /mnt/foo_link
$ xfs_io -c "pwrite -S 0xcd 0 1M" /mnt/foo
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/bar
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/foo
<power failure>
# Replay the log:
$ mount /dev/sdc /mnt
# After this point file foo often has 1M filled with 0xab and not 0xcd
The reasons leading to the final fsync of file foo, inode 258, not
persisting the new data are the same as for the previous example with
a rename operation.
So fix by never skipping logging and log syncing when there are still any
ordered extents in flight. To avoid making the conditional if statement
that checks if logging an inode is needed harder to read, place all the
logic into an helper function with separate if statements to make it more
manageable and easier to read.
A test case for fstests will follow soon.
For NOCOW writes, the problem existed before commit b5e6c3e170
("btrfs: always wait on ordered extents at fsync time"), introduced in
kernel 4.19, then it went away with that commit since we started to always
wait for ordered extent completion before logging.
The problem came back again once the fast fsync path was changed again to
avoid waiting for ordered extent completion, in commit 487781796d
("btrfs: make fast fsyncs wait only for writeback"), added in kernel 5.10.
However, for COW writes, the race only happens after the recent
commit 209ecbb858 ("btrfs: remove stale comment and logic from
btrfs_inode_in_log()"), introduced in the 5.13 merge window. For NOCOW
writes, the bug existed before that commit. So tag 5.10+ as the release
for stable backports.

In commit d77815461f ("btrfs: Avoid trucating page or punching hole
in a already existed hole."), existing holes can be skipped by calling
find_first_non_hole() to adjust start and len. However, if the given len
is invalid and large, when an EXTENT_MAP_HOLE extent is found, len will
not be set to zero because (em->start + em->len) is less than
(start + len). Then the ret will be 1 but len will not be set to 0.
The propagated non-zero ret will result in fallocate failure.
In the while-loop of btrfs_replace_file_extents(), len is not updated
every time before it calls find_first_non_hole(). That is, after
btrfs_drop_extents() successfully drops the last non-hole file extent,
it may fail with ENOSPC when attempting to drop a file extent item
representing a hole. The problem can happen. After it calls
find_first_non_hole(), the cur_offset will be adjusted to be larger
than or equal to end. However, since the len is not set to zero, the
break-loop condition (ret && !len) will not be met. After it leaves the
while-loop, fallocate will return 1, which is an unexpected return
value.
We're not able to construct a reproducible way to let
btrfs_drop_extents() fail with ENOSPC after it drops the last non-hole
file extent but with remaining holes left. However, it's quite easy to
fix. We just need to update and check the len every time before we call
find_first_non_hole(). To make the while loop more readable, we also
pull the variable updates to the bottom of loop like this:
while (cur_offset < end) {
...
// update cur_offset & len
// advance cur_offset & len in hole-punching case if needed
}

We have a race between marking that an inode needs to be logged, either
at btrfs_set_inode_last_trans() or at btrfs_page_mkwrite(), and between
btrfs_sync_log(). The following steps describe how the race happens.
1) We are at transaction N;
2) Inode I was previously fsynced in the current transaction so it has:
inode->logged_trans set to N;
3) The inode's root currently has:
root->log_transid set to 1
root->last_log_commit set to 0
Which means only one log transaction was committed to far, log
transaction 0. When a log tree is created we set ->log_transid and
->last_log_commit of its parent root to 0 (at btrfs_add_log_tree());
4) One more range of pages is dirtied in inode I;
5) Some task A starts an fsync against some other inode J (same root), and
so it joins log transaction 1.
Before task A calls btrfs_sync_log()...
6) Task B starts an fsync against inode I, which currently has the full
sync flag set, so it starts delalloc and waits for the ordered extent
to complete before calling btrfs_inode_in_log() at btrfs_sync_file();
7) During ordered extent completion we have btrfs_update_inode() called
against inode I, which in turn calls btrfs_set_inode_last_trans(),
which does the following:
spin_lock(&inode->lock);
inode->last_trans = trans->transaction->transid;
inode->last_sub_trans = inode->root->log_transid;
inode->last_log_commit = inode->root->last_log_commit;
spin_unlock(&inode->lock);
So ->last_trans is set to N and ->last_sub_trans set to 1.
But before setting ->last_log_commit...
8) Task A is at btrfs_sync_log():
- it increments root->log_transid to 2
- starts writeback for all log tree extent buffers
- waits for the writeback to complete
- writes the super blocks
- updates root->last_log_commit to 1
It's a lot of slow steps between updating root->log_transid and
root->last_log_commit;
9) The task doing the ordered extent completion, currently at
btrfs_set_inode_last_trans(), then finally runs:
inode->last_log_commit = inode->root->last_log_commit;
spin_unlock(&inode->lock);
Which results in inode->last_log_commit being set to 1.
The ordered extent completes;
10) Task B is resumed, and it calls btrfs_inode_in_log() which returns
true because we have all the following conditions met:
inode->logged_trans == N which matches fs_info->generation &&
inode->last_subtrans (1) <= inode->last_log_commit (1) &&
inode->last_subtrans (1) <= root->last_log_commit (1) &&
list inode->extent_tree.modified_extents is empty
And as a consequence we return without logging the inode, so the
existing logged version of the inode does not point to the extent
that was written after the previous fsync.
It should be impossible in practice for one task be able to do so much
progress in btrfs_sync_log() while another task is at
btrfs_set_inode_last_trans() right after it reads root->log_transid and
before it reads root->last_log_commit. Even if kernel preemption is enabled
we know the task at btrfs_set_inode_last_trans() can not be preempted
because it is holding the inode's spinlock.
However there is another place where we do the same without holding the
spinlock, which is in the memory mapped write path at:
vm_fault_t btrfs_page_mkwrite(struct vm_fault *vmf)
{
(...)
BTRFS_I(inode)->last_trans = fs_info->generation;
BTRFS_I(inode)->last_sub_trans = BTRFS_I(inode)->root->log_transid;
BTRFS_I(inode)->last_log_commit = BTRFS_I(inode)->root->last_log_commit;
(...)
So with preemption happening after setting ->last_sub_trans and before
setting ->last_log_commit, it is less of a stretch to have another task
do enough progress at btrfs_sync_log() such that the task doing the memory
mapped write ends up with ->last_sub_trans and ->last_log_commit set to
the same value. It is still a big stretch to get there, as the task doing
btrfs_sync_log() has to start writeback, wait for its completion and write
the super blocks.
So fix this in two different ways:
1) For btrfs_set_inode_last_trans(), simply set ->last_log_commit to the
value of ->last_sub_trans minus 1;
2) For btrfs_page_mkwrite() only set the inode's ->last_sub_trans, just
like we do for buffered and direct writes at btrfs_file_write_iter(),
which is all we need to make sure multiple writes and fsyncs to an
inode in the same transaction never result in an fsync missing that
the inode changed and needs to be logged. Turn this into a helper
function and use it both at btrfs_page_mkwrite() and at
btrfs_file_write_iter() - this also fixes the problem that at
btrfs_page_mkwrite() we were setting those fields without the
protection of the inode's spinlock.
This is an extremely unlikely race to happen in practice.

When doing an fsync we flush all delalloc, lock the inode (VFS lock), flush
any new delalloc that might have been created before taking the lock and
then wait either for the ordered extents to complete or just for the
writeback to complete (depending on whether the full sync flag is set or
not). We then start logging the inode and assume that while we are doing it
no one else is touching the inode's file extent items (or adding new ones).
That is generally true because all operations that modify an inode acquire
the inode's lock first, including buffered and direct IO writes. However
there is one exception: memory mapped writes, which do not and can not
acquire the inode's lock.
This can cause two types of issues: ending up logging file extent items
with overlapping ranges, which is detected by the tree checker and will
result in aborting the transaction when starting writeback for a log
tree's extent buffers, or a silent corruption where we log a version of
the file that never existed.
Scenario 1 - logging overlapping extents
The following steps explain how we can end up with file extents items with
overlapping ranges in a log tree due to a race between a fsync and memory
mapped writes:
1) Task A starts an fsync on inode X, which has the full sync runtime flag
set. First it starts by flushing all delalloc for the inode;
2) Task A then locks the inode and flushes any other delalloc that might
have been created after the previous flush and waits for all ordered
extents to complete;
3) In the inode's root we have the following leaf:
Leaf N, generation == current transaction id:
---------------------------------------------------------
| (...) [ file extent item, offset 640K, length 128K ] |
---------------------------------------------------------
The last file extent item in leaf N covers the file range from 640K to
768K;
4) Task B does a memory mapped write for the page corresponding to the
file range from 764K to 768K;
5) Task A starts logging the inode. At copy_inode_items_to_log() it uses
btrfs_search_forward() to search for leafs modified in the current
transaction that contain items for the inode. It finds leaf N and copies
all the inode items from that leaf into the log tree.
Now the log tree has a copy of the last file extent item from leaf N.
At the end of the while loop at copy_inode_items_to_log(), we have the
minimum key set to:
min_key.objectid = <inode X number>
min_key.type = BTRFS_EXTENT_DATA_KEY
min_key.offset = 640K
Then we increment the key's offset by 1 so that the next call to
btrfs_search_forward() leaves us at the first key greater than the key
we just processed.
But before btrfs_search_forward() is called again...
6) Dellaloc for the page at offset 764K, dirtied by task B, is started.
It can be started for several reasons:
- The async reclaim task is attempting to satisfy metadata or data
reservation requests, and it has reached a point where it decided
to flush delalloc;
- Due to memory pressure the VMM triggers writeback of dirty pages;
- The system call sync_file_range(2) is called from user space.
7) When the respective ordered extent completes, it trims the length of
the existing file extent item for file offset 640K from 128K to 124K,
and a new file extent item is added with a key offset of 764K and a
length of 4K;
8) Task A calls btrfs_search_forward(), which returns us a path pointing
to the leaf (can be leaf N or some other) containing the new file extent
item for file offset 764K.
We end up copying this item to the log tree, which overlaps with the
last copied file extent item, which covers the file range from 640K to
768K.
When writeback is triggered for log tree's extent buffers, the issue
will be detected by the tree checker which will dump a trace and an
error message on dmesg/syslog. If the writeback is triggered when
syncing the log, which typically is, then we also end up aborting the
current transaction.
This is the same type of problem fixed in 0c713cbab6 ("Btrfs: fix race
between ranged fsync and writeback of adjacent ranges").
Scenario 2 - logging a version of the file that never existed
This scenario only happens when using the NO_HOLES feature and results in
a silent corruption, in the sense that is not detectable by 'btrfs check'
or the tree checker:
1) We have an inode I with a size of 1M and two file extent items, one
covering an extent with disk_bytenr == X for the file range [0, 512K)
and another one covering another extent with disk_bytenr == Y for the
file range [512K, 1M);
2) A hole is punched for the file range [512K, 1M);
3) Task A starts an fsync of inode I, which has the full sync runtime flag
set. It starts by flushing all existing delalloc, locks the inode (VFS
lock), starts any new delalloc that might have been created before
taking the lock and waits for all ordered extents to complete;
4) Some other task does a memory mapped write for the page corresponding to
the file range [640K, 644K) for example;
5) Task A then logs all items of the inode with the call to
copy_inode_items_to_log();
6) In the meanwhile delalloc for the range [640K, 644K) is started. It can
be started for several reasons:
- The async reclaim task is attempting to satisfy metadata or data
reservation requests, and it has reached a point where it decided
to flush delalloc;
- Due to memory pressure the VMM triggers writeback of dirty pages;
- The system call sync_file_range(2) is called from user space.
7) The ordered extent for the range [640K, 644K) completes and a file
extent item for that range is added to the subvolume tree, pointing
to a 4K extent with a disk_bytenr == Z;
8) Task A then calls btrfs_log_holes(), to scan for implicit holes in
the subvolume tree. It finds two implicit holes:
- one for the file range [512K, 640K)
- one for the file range [644K, 1M)
As a result we end up neither logging a hole for the range [640K, 644K)
nor logging the file extent item with a disk_bytenr == Z.
This means that if we have a power failure and replay the log tree we
end up getting the following file extent layout:
[ disk_bytenr X ] [ hole ] [ disk_bytenr Y ] [ hole ]
0 512K 512K 640K 640K 644K 644K 1M
Which does not corresponding to any layout the file ever had before
the power failure. The only two valid layouts would be:
[ disk_bytenr X ] [ hole ]
0 512K 512K 1M
and
[ disk_bytenr X ] [ hole ] [ disk_bytenr Z ] [ hole ]
0 512K 512K 640K 640K 644K 644K 1M
This can be fixed by serializing memory mapped writes with fsync, and there
are two ways to do it:
1) Make a fsync lock the entire file range, from 0 to (u64)-1 / LLONG_MAX
in the inode's io tree. This prevents the race but also blocks any reads
during the duration of the fsync, which has a negative impact for many
common workloads;
2) Make an fsync write lock the i_mmap_lock semaphore in the inode. This
semaphore was recently added by Josef's patch set:
btrfs: add a i_mmap_lock to our inode
btrfs: cleanup inode_lock/inode_unlock uses
btrfs: exclude mmaps while doing remap
btrfs: exclude mmap from happening during all fallocate operations
and is used to solve races between memory mapped writes and
clone/dedupe/fallocate. This also makes us have the same behaviour we
have regarding other writes (buffered and direct IO) and fsync - block
them while the inode logging is in progress.
This change uses the second approach due to the performance impact of the
first one.

There's a small window where a deadlock can happen between fallocate and
mmap. This is described in detail by Filipe:
"""
When doing a fallocate operation we lock the inode, flush delalloc within
the target range, wait for any ordered extents to complete and then lock
the file range. Before we lock the range and after we flush delalloc,
there is a time window where another task can come in and do a memory
mapped write for a page within the fallocate range.
This means that after fallocate locks the range, there can be a dirty page
in the range. More often than not, this does not cause any problem.
The exception is when we are low on available metadata space, because an
fallocate operation needs to start a transaction while holding the file
range locked, either through btrfs_prealloc_file_range() or through the
call to btrfs_fallocate_update_isize(). If that's the case, we can end up
in a deadlock. The following list of steps explains how that happens:
1) A fallocate operation starts, locks the inode, flushes delalloc in the
range and waits for ordered extents in the range to complete;
2) Before the fallocate task locks the file range, another task does a
memory mapped write for a page in the fallocate target range. This is
possible since memory mapped writes do not (and can not) lock the
inode;
3) The fallocate task locks the file range. At this point there is one
dirty page in the range (due to the memory mapped write);
4) When the fallocate task attempts to start a transaction, it blocks when
attempting to reserve metadata space, since we are low on available
metadata space. Before blocking (wait on its reservation ticket), it
starts the async reclaim task (if not running already);
5) The async reclaim task is not able to release space through any other
means, so it decides to flush delalloc for inodes with dirty pages.
It finds that the inode used in the fallocate operation has a dirty
page and therefore queues a job (fs_info->flush_workers workqueue) to
flush delalloc for that inode and waits on that job to complete;
6) The flush job blocks when attempting to lock the file range because
it is currently locked by the fallocate task;
7) The fallocate task keeps waiting for its metadata reservation, waiting
for a wakeup on its reservation ticket. The async reclaim task is
waiting on the flush job, which in turn is waiting for locking the file
range that is currently locked by the fallocate task. So unless some
other task is able to release enough metadata space, for example an
ordered extent for some other inode completes, we end up in a deadlock
between all these tasks.

A few places we intermix btrfs_inode_lock with a inode_unlock, and some
places we just use inode_lock/inode_unlock instead of btrfs_inode_lock.
None of these places are using this incorrectly, but as we adjust some
of these callers it would be nice to keep everything consistent, so
convert everybody to use btrfs_inode_lock/btrfs_inode_unlock.

Enable zone append writing for zoned mode. When using zone append, a
bio is issued to the start of a target zone and the device decides to
place it inside the zone. Upon completion the device reports the actual
written position back to the host.
Three parts are necessary to enable zone append mode. First, modify the
bio to use REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND in btrfs_submit_bio_hook() and adjust the
bi_sector to point the beginning of the zone.
Second, record the returned physical address (and disk/partno) to the
ordered extent in end_bio_extent_writepage() after the bio has been
completed. We cannot resolve the physical address to the logical address
because we can neither take locks nor allocate a buffer in this end_bio
context. So, we need to record the physical address to resolve it later
in btrfs_finish_ordered_io().
And finally, rewrite the logical addresses of the extent mapping and
checksum data according to the physical address using btrfs_rmap_block.
If the returned address matches the originally allocated address, we can
skip this rewriting process.

To support subpage sector size, data also need extra info to make sure
which sectors in a page are uptodate/dirty/...
This patch will make pages for data inodes get btrfs_subpage structure
attached, and detached when the page is freed.
This patch also slightly changes the timing when
set_page_extent_mapped() is called to make sure:
- We have page->mapping set
page->mapping->host is used to grab btrfs_fs_info, thus we can only
call this function after page is mapped to an inode.
One call site attaches pages to inode manually, thus we have to modify
the timing of set_page_extent_mapped() a bit.
- As soon as possible, before other operations
Since memory allocation can fail, we have to do extra error handling.
Calling set_page_extent_mapped() as soon as possible can simply the
error handling for several call sites.
The idea is pretty much the same as iomap_page, but with more bitmaps
for btrfs specific cases.
Currently the plan is to switch iomap if iomap can provide sector
aligned write back (only write back dirty sectors, but not the full
page, data balance require this feature).
So we will stick to btrfs specific bitmap for now.

Often an fsync needs to fallback to a transaction commit for several
reasons (to ensure consistency after a power failure, a new block group
was allocated or a temporary error such as ENOMEM or ENOSPC happened).
In that case the log is marked as needing a full commit and any concurrent
tasks attempting to log inodes or commit the log will also fallback to the
transaction commit. When this happens they all wait for the task that first
started the transaction commit to finish the transaction commit - however
they wait until the full transaction commit happens, which is not needed,
as they only need to wait for the superblocks to be persisted and not for
unpinning all the extents pinned during the transaction's lifetime, which
even for short lived transactions can be a few thousand and take some
significant amount of time to complete - for dbench workloads I have
observed up to 4~5 milliseconds of time spent unpinning extents in the
worst cases, and the number of pinned extents was between 2 to 3 thousand.
So allow fsync tasks to skip waiting for the unpinning of extents when
they call btrfs_commit_transaction() and they were not the task that
started the transaction commit (that one has to do it, the alternative
would be to offload the transaction commit to another task so that it
could avoid waiting for the extent unpinning or offload the extent
unpinning to another task).
This patch is part of a patchset comprised of the following patches:
btrfs: remove unnecessary directory inode item update when deleting dir entry
btrfs: stop setting nbytes when filling inode item for logging
btrfs: avoid logging new ancestor inodes when logging new inode
btrfs: skip logging directories already logged when logging all parents
btrfs: skip logging inodes already logged when logging new entries
btrfs: remove unnecessary check_parent_dirs_for_sync()
btrfs: make concurrent fsyncs wait less when waiting for a transaction commit
After applying the entire patchset, dbench shows improvements in respect
to throughput and latency. The script used to measure it is the following:

fallocate() is implemented by reserving actual extent instead of
reservations. This can result in exposing the sequential write
constraint of host-managed zoned block devices to the application, which
would break the POSIX semantic for the fallocated file. To avoid this,
report fallocate() as not supported when in ZONED mode for now.
In the future, we may be able to implement "in-memory" fallocate() in
ZONED mode by utilizing space_info->bytes_may_use or similar, so this
returns EOPNOTSUPP.

There are several occasions where we do not update the inode's number of
used bytes atomically, resulting in a concurrent stat(2) syscall to report
a value of used blocks that does not correspond to a valid value, that is,
a value that does not match neither what we had before the operation nor
what we get after the operation completes.
In extreme cases it can result in stat(2) reporting zero used blocks, which
can cause problems for some userspace tools where they can consider a file
with a non-zero size and zero used blocks as completely sparse and skip
reading data, as reported/discussed a long time ago in some threads like
the following:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2016-07/msg00001.html
The cases where this can happen are the following:
-> Case 1
If we do a write (buffered or direct IO) against a file region for which
there is already an allocated extent (or multiple extents), then we have a
short time window where we can report a number of used blocks to stat(2)
that does not take into account the file region being overwritten. This
short time window happens when completing the ordered extent(s).
This happens because when we drop the extents in the write range we
decrement the inode's number of bytes and later on when we insert the new
extent(s) we increment the number of bytes in the inode, resulting in a
short time window where a stat(2) syscall can get an incorrect number of
used blocks.
If we do writes that overwrite an entire file, then we have a short time
window where we report 0 used blocks to stat(2).
Example reproducer:
$ cat reproducer-1.sh
#!/bin/bash
MNT=/mnt/sdi
DEV=/dev/sdi
stat_loop()
{
trap "wait; exit" SIGTERM
local filepath=$1
local expected=$2
local got
while :; do
got=$(stat -c %b $filepath)
if [ $got -ne $expected ]; then
echo -n "ERROR: unexpected used blocks"
echo " (got: $got expected: $expected)"
fi
done
}
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.xfs -f $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.ext4 -F $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.f2fs -f $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.reiserfs -f $DEV > /dev/null
mount $DEV $MNT
xfs_io -f -s -c "pwrite -b 64K 0 64K" $MNT/foobar >/dev/null
expected=$(stat -c %b $MNT/foobar)
# Create a process to keep calling stat(2) on the file and see if the
# reported number of blocks used (disk space used) changes, it should
# not because we are not increasing the file size nor punching holes.
stat_loop $MNT/foobar $expected &
loop_pid=$!
for ((i = 0; i < 50000; i++)); do
xfs_io -s -c "pwrite -b 64K 0 64K" $MNT/foobar >/dev/null
done
kill $loop_pid &> /dev/null
wait
umount $DEV
$ ./reproducer-1.sh
ERROR: unexpected used blocks (got: 0 expected: 128)
ERROR: unexpected used blocks (got: 0 expected: 128)
(...)
Note that since this is a short time window where the race can happen, the
reproducer may not be able to always trigger the bug in one run, or it may
trigger it multiple times.
-> Case 2
If we do a buffered write against a file region that does not have any
allocated extents, like a hole or beyond EOF, then during ordered extent
completion we have a short time window where a concurrent stat(2) syscall
can report a number of used blocks that does not correspond to the value
before or after the write operation, a value that is actually larger than
the value after the write completes.
This happens because once we start a buffered write into an unallocated
file range we increment the inode's 'new_delalloc_bytes', to make sure
any stat(2) call gets a correct used blocks value before delalloc is
flushed and completes. However at ordered extent completion, after we
inserted the new extent, we increment the inode's number of bytes used
with the size of the new extent, and only later, when clearing the range
in the inode's iotree, we decrement the inode's 'new_delalloc_bytes'
counter with the size of the extent. So this results in a short time
window where a concurrent stat(2) syscall can report a number of used
blocks that accounts for the new extent twice.
Example reproducer:
$ cat reproducer-2.sh
#!/bin/bash
MNT=/mnt/sdi
DEV=/dev/sdi
stat_loop()
{
trap "wait; exit" SIGTERM
local filepath=$1

offset=$(($i * $write_size))

blocks_used=$(stat -c %b $MNT/foobar)
# Fsync the file to trigger writeback and keep calling stat(2) on it
# to see if the number of blocks used changes.
stat_loop $MNT/foobar $blocks_used &

ERROR: unexpected used blocks (got: 265472 expected: 265344)

(...)
Note that since this is a short time window where the race can happen, the
reproducer may not be able to always trigger the bug in one run, or it may
trigger it multiple times.
-> Case 3
Another case where such problems happen is during other operations that
replace extents in a file range with other extents. Those operations are
extent cloning, deduplication and fallocate's zero range operation.
The cause of the problem is similar to the first case. When we drop the
extents from a range, we decrement the inode's number of bytes, and later
on, after inserting the new extents we increment it. Since this is not
done atomically, a concurrent stat(2) call can see and return a number of
used blocks that is smaller than it should be, does not match the number
of used blocks before or after the clone/deduplication/zero operation.
Like for the first case, when doing a clone, deduplication or zero range
operation against an entire file, we end up having a time window where we
can report 0 used blocks to a stat(2) call.
Example reproducer:
$ cat reproducer-3.sh
#!/bin/bash
MNT=/mnt/sdi
DEV=/dev/sdi
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.xfs -f -m reflink=1 $DEV > /dev/null
mount $DEV $MNT
extent_size=$((64 * 1024))
num_extents=16384
file_size=$(($extent_size * $num_extents))
# File foo has many small extents.
xfs_io -f -s -c "pwrite -S 0xab -b $extent_size 0 $file_size" $MNT/foo \
> /dev/null
# File bar has much less extents and has exactly the same data as foo.
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xab 0 $file_size" $MNT/bar > /dev/null
expected=$(stat -c %b $MNT/foo)
# Now deduplicate bar into foo. While the deduplication is in progres,
# the number of used blocks/file size reported by stat should not change
xfs_io -c "dedupe $MNT/bar 0 0 $file_size" $MNT/foo > /dev/null &
dedupe_pid=$!
while [ -n "$(ps -p $dedupe_pid -o pid=)" ]; do
used=$(stat -c %b $MNT/foo)
if [ $used -ne $expected ]; then
echo "Unexpected blocks used: $used (expected: $expected)"
fi
done
umount $DEV
$ ./reproducer-3.sh
Unexpected blocks used: 2076800 (expected: 2097152)
Unexpected blocks used: 2097024 (expected: 2097152)
Unexpected blocks used: 2079872 (expected: 2097152)
(...)
Note that since this is a short time window where the race can happen, the
reproducer may not be able to always trigger the bug in one run, or it may
trigger it multiple times.
So fix this by:
1) Making btrfs_drop_extents() not decrement the VFS inode's number of
bytes, and instead return the number of bytes;
2) Making any code that drops extents and adds new extents update the
inode's number of bytes atomically, while holding the btrfs inode's
spinlock, which is also used by the stat(2) callback to get the inode's
number of bytes;
3) For ranges in the inode's iotree that are marked as 'delalloc new',
corresponding to previously unallocated ranges, increment the inode's
number of bytes when clearing the 'delalloc new' bit from the range,
in the same critical section that decrements the inode's
'new_delalloc_bytes' counter, delimited by the btrfs inode's spinlock.
An alternative would be to have btrfs_getattr() wait for any IO (ordered
extents in progress) and locking the whole range (0 to (u64)-1) while it
it computes the number of blocks used. But that would mean blocking
stat(2), which is a very used syscall and expected to be fast, waiting
for writes, clone/dedupe, fallocate, page reads, fiemap, etc.

There are many arguments for __btrfs_drop_extents() and its wrapper
btrfs_drop_extents(), which makes it hard to add more arguments to it and
requires changing every caller. I have added a couple myself back in 2014
commit 1acae57b16 ("Btrfs: faster file extent item replace operations")
and therefore know firsthand that it is a bit cumbersome to add additional
arguments to these functions.
Since I will need to add more arguments in a subsequent bug fix, this
change is preparatory work and adds a data structure that holds all the
arguments, for both input and output, that are passed to this function,
with some comments in the structure's definition mentioning what each
field is and how it relates to other fields.
Callers of this function need only to zero out the content of the
structure and setup only the fields they need. This also removes the
need to have both __btrfs_drop_extents() and btrfs_drop_extents(), so
now we have a single function named btrfs_drop_extents() that takes a
pointer to this new data structure (struct btrfs_drop_extents_args).

When doing a buffered write, through one of the write family syscalls, we
look for ranges which currently don't have allocated extents and set the
'delalloc new' bit on them, so that we can report a correct number of used
blocks to the stat(2) syscall until delalloc is flushed and ordered extents
complete.
However there are a few other places where we can do a buffered write
against a range that is mapped to a hole (no extent allocated) and where
we do not set the 'new delalloc' bit. Those places are:
- Doing a memory mapped write against a hole;
- Cloning an inline extent into a hole starting at file offset 0;
- Calling btrfs_cont_expand() when the i_size of the file is not aligned
to the sector size and is located in a hole. For example when cloning
to a destination offset beyond EOF.
So after such cases, until the corresponding delalloc range is flushed and
the respective ordered extents complete, we can report an incorrect number
of blocks used through the stat(2) syscall.
In some cases we can end up reporting 0 used blocks to stat(2), which is a
particular bad value to report as it may mislead tools to think a file is
completely sparse when its i_size is not zero, making them skip reading
any data, an undesired consequence for tools such as archivers and other
backup tools, as reported a long time ago in the following thread (and
other past threads):
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2016-07/msg00001.html
Example reproducer:
$ cat reproducer.sh
#!/bin/bash
MNT=/mnt/sdi
DEV=/dev/sdi
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.xfs -f $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.ext4 -F $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.f2fs -f $DEV > /dev/null
mount $DEV $MNT
xfs_io -f -c "truncate 64K" \

-c "munmap" \

blocks_used=$(stat -c %b $MNT/foo)
echo "blocks used: $blocks_used"
if [ $blocks_used -eq 0 ]; then
echo "ERROR: blocks used is 0"
fi
umount $DEV
$ ./reproducer.sh
blocks used: 0
ERROR: blocks used is 0
So move the logic that decides to set the 'delalloc bit' bit into the
function btrfs_set_extent_delalloc(), since that is what we use for all
those missing cases as well as for the cases that currently work well.
This change is also preparatory work for an upcoming patch that fixes
other problems related to tracking and reporting the number of bytes used
by an inode.

Commit 8d875f95da ("btrfs: disable strict file flushes for
renames and truncates") eliminated the notion of ordered operations and
instead BTRFS_INODE_ORDERED_DATA_CLOSE only remained as a flag
indicating that a file's content should be synced to disk in case a
file is truncated and any writes happen to it concurrently. In fact
this intendend behavior was broken until it was fixed in
f6dc45c7a9 ("Btrfs: fix filemap_flush call in btrfs_file_release").
All things considered let's give the flag a more descriptive name. Also
slightly reword comments.
