While creating new inode, we do not allocate and account nid atomically,

In order to avoid that, reuse nm_i::available_nids for accounting free nids
and make nid allocation and counting being atomical during node creation.

During free nid allocation, in order to do preallocation, we will tag free
nid entry as allocated one and still leave it in free nid list, for other
allocators who want to grab free nids, it needs to traverse the free nid
list for lookup. It becomes overhead in scenario of allocating free nid
intensively by multithreads.
This patch splits free nid list to two list: {free,alloc}_nid_list, to
keep free nids and preallocated free nids separately, after that, traverse
latency will be gone, besides split nid_cnt for separate statistic.
Additionally, introduce __insert_nid_to_list and __remove_nid_from_list for

During nid allocation, it needs to exclude building and allocating flow
of free nids, this is because while building free nid cache, there are two
steps: a) load free nids from unused nat entries in NAT pages, b) update
free nid cache by checking nat journal. The two steps should be atomical,
otherwise an used nid can be allocated as free one after a) and before b).

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

ra_node_page() is used to read ahead one node page. Comparing to regular
read, it's faster because it doesn't wait for IO completion.
But if it is called twice for reading the same block, and the IO request
from the first call hasn't been completed before the second call, the second
call will have to wait until the read is over.
Here use the code in __do_page_cache_readahead() to solve this problem.
It does nothing when someone else already puts the page in mapping. The

nat_tree_lock will be held to avoid inconsistent condition in between
nid cache and nat cache caused by racing among nat entry shrinker,

But this way may cause low efficient when updating nat cache, because it

Here, we reorder lock and update flow as below to enhance accessing
concurrency:
- get_node_info
- down_read(nat_tree_lock)
- lookup nat cache --- hit -> unlock & return
- lookup journal cache --- hit -> unlock & goto update
- up_read(nat_tree_lock)

- up_write(nat_tree_lock)

In curseg cache, f2fs caches two different parts:
- datas of current summay block, i.e. summary entries, footer info.
- journal info, i.e. sparse nat/sit entries or io stat info.
With this approach, 1) it may cause higher lock contention when we access
or update both of the parts of cache since we use the same mutex lock
curseg_mutex to protect the cache. 2) current summary block with last
journal info will be writebacked into device as a normal summary block
when flushing, however, we treat journal info as valid one only in current
summary, so most normal summary blocks contain junk journal data, it wastes
remaining space of summary block.
So, in order to fix above issues, we split curseg cache into two parts:
a) current summary block, protected by original mutex lock curseg_mutex
b) journal cache, protected by newly introduced r/w semaphore journal_rwsem
When loading curseg cache during ->mount, we store summary info and
journal info into different caches; When doing checkpoint, we combine
datas of two cache into current summary block for persisting.

f2fs use single bio buffer per type data (META/NODE/DATA) for caching
writes locating in continuous block address as many as possible, after
submitting, these writes may be still cached in bio buffer, so we have
to flush cached writes in bio buffer by calling f2fs_submit_merged_bio.
Unfortunately, in the scenario of high concurrency, bio buffer could be
flushed by someone else before we submit it as below reasons:
a) there is no space in bio buffer.
b) add a request of different type (SYNC, ASYNC).
c) add a discontinuous block address.
For this condition, f2fs_submit_merged_bio will be devastating, because
it could break the following merging of writes in bio buffer, split one
big bio into two smaller one.
This patch introduces f2fs_submit_merged_bio_cond which can do a
conditional submitting with bio buffer, before submitting it will judge
whether:
- page in DATA type bio buffer is matching with specified page;
- page in DATA type bio buffer is belong to specified inode;
- page in NODE type bio buffer is belong to specified inode;
If there is no eligible page in bio buffer, we will skip submitting step,
result in gaining more chance to merge consecutive block IOs in bio cache.

This reverts commit 15bec0ff5a9ba6d203178fa8772259df6207942a.
Previously, we skip dentry block writes when wbc is SYNC_NONE with no memory
pressure and the number of dirty pages is pretty small.
But, we didn't skip for normal data writes, which gives us not much big impact
on overall performance.
Moreover, by skipping some data writes, kworker falls into infinite loop to try
to write blocks, when many dir inodes have only one dentry block.
So, this patch removes skipping data writes.

decade, finally there's a solution and code to go with it.

writeback: update wb_over_bg_thresh() to use wb_domain aware operations
...
Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear. For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi. To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.
This patch moves bandwidth related fields from backing_dev_info into
bdi_writeback.
* The moved fields are: bw_time_stamp, dirtied_stamp, written_stamp,
write_bandwidth, avg_write_bandwidth, dirty_ratelimit,
balanced_dirty_ratelimit, completions and dirty_exceeded.
* writeback_chunk_size() and over_bground_thresh() now take @wb
instead of @bdi.
* bdi_writeout_fraction(bdi, ...) -> wb_writeout_fraction(wb, ...)
bdi_dirty_limit(bdi, ...) -> wb_dirty_limit(wb, ...)
bdi_position_ration(bdi, ...) -> wb_position_ratio(wb, ...)
bdi_update_writebandwidth(bdi, ...) -> wb_update_write_bandwidth(wb, ...)
[__]bdi_update_bandwidth(bdi, ...) -> [__]wb_update_bandwidth(wb, ...)
bdi_{max|min}_pause(bdi, ...) -> wb_{max|min}_pause(wb, ...)
bdi_dirty_limits(bdi, ...) -> wb_dirty_limits(wb, ...)
* Init/exits of the relocated fields are moved to bdi_wb_init/exit()
respectively. Note that explicit zeroing is dropped in the process
as wb's are cleared in entirety anyway.
* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
uses of bdi->stat[] are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.stat[]
introducing no behavior changes.

1. inode(x) | CP | inode(x) | dnode(F)
2. inode(x) | CP | inode(F) | dnode(F)
3. inode(x) | CP | dnode(F) | inode(x) | inode(F)
4. inode(x) | CP | dnode(F) | inode(F)
5. CP | inode(x) | dnode(F) | inode(DF)
6. CP | inode(DF) | dnode(F)
7. CP | dnode(F) | inode(DF)
8. CP | dnode(F) | inode(x) | inode(DF)
For example, #3, the three conditions should be changed as follows.
inode(x) | CP | dnode(F) | inode(x) | inode(F)
a) x o o o o
b) x x x x o
c) x o o x o
If f2fs_sync_file stops ------^,
it should write inode(F) --------------^
So, the need_inode_block_update should return true, since
c) get_nat_flag(e, HAS_LAST_FSYNC), is false.
For example, #8,
CP | alloc | dnode(F) | inode(x) | inode(DF)
a) o x x x x
b) x x x o
c) o o x o
If f2fs_sync_file stops -------^,
it should write inode(DF) --------------^
Note that, the roll-forward policy should follow this rule, which means,
if there are any missing blocks, we doesn't need to recover that inode.

This patch introduces a flag in the nat entry structure to merge various
information such as checkpointed and fsync_done marks.
Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
In commit aec71382c6 ("f2fs: refactor flush_nat_entries codes for reducing NAT
writes"), we descripte the issue as below:
"Although building NAT journal in cursum reduce the read/write work for NAT
block, but previous design leave us lower performance when write checkpoint
frequently for these cases:
1. if journal in cursum has already full, it's a bit of waste that we flush all
nat entries to page for persistence, but not to cache any entries.
2. if journal in cursum is not full, we fill nat entries to journal util
journal is full, then flush the left dirty entries to disk without merge
journaled entries, so these journaled entries may be flushed to disk at next
checkpoint but lost chance to flushed last time."
Actually, we have the same problem in using SIT journal area.
In this patch, firstly we will update sit journal with dirty entries as many as
possible. Secondly if there is no space in sit journal, we will remove all
entries in journal and walk through the whole dirty entry bitmap of sit,
accounting dirty sit entries located in same SIT block to sit entry set. All
entry sets are linked to list sit_entry_set in sm_info, sorted ascending order
by count of entries in set. Later we flush entries in set which have fewest
entries into journal as many as we can, and then flush dense set with merged
entries to disk.
In this way we can use sit journal area more effectively, also we will reduce
SIT update, result in gaining in performance and saving lifetime of flash
device.
In my testing environment, it shows this patch can help to reduce SIT block
update obviously.

Theoretically, our total inodes number is the same as total node number, but
there are three node ids are reserved in f2fs, they are 0, 1 (node nid), and 2

number calculated in ->statfs is wrong.
This patch indroduces F2FS_RESERVED_NODE_NUM and then fixes this issue by

I think we need to let the dirty node pages remain in the page cache instead
of rewriting them in their places.
So, after done with successful recovery, write_checkpoint will flush all of them
through the normal write path.
Through this, we can avoid potential error cases in terms of block allocation.

There are two rules when EIO is occurred.
1. don't write any checkpoint data to preserve the previous checkpoint
2. don't lose the cached dentry/node/meta pages
So, at first, this patch adds set_page_dirty in f2fs_write_end_io's failure.
Then, writing checkpoint/dentry/node blocks is not allowed.
Note that, for the data pages, we can't just throw away by redirtying them.
Otherwise, kworker can fall into infinite loop to flush them.

aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have
mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is
visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead
when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be
noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse
the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is
visible.
The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use
grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial
allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed()
helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may
called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically.
The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used
by most filesystems.
find_get_page
find_lock_page
find_or_create_page
grab_cache_page_nowait
grab_cache_page_write_begin
All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper
pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its
behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then
old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core
function.
Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling
mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already
done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the
mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page
gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might
have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the
filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the
timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking
pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems
have consistent behaviour in this regard.
The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done
multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the
file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the
async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even
hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact
of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be
more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO"
to not hit the disk.
The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA
artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall
times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the
variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable
do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync
results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.
The performance results are reported based on a run with no profiling.
Profile data is based on a separate run with oprofile running.

Previously, the free nid list was controlled by MAX_FREE_NIDS, while the nat
cache was managed by NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD.
However, this approach cannot be applied dynamically according to the system.
So, this patch adds ram_thresh that users can specify the threshold, which is
in order of 1 / 1024.
For example, if the total ram size is 4GB and the value is set to 10 by default,
f2fs tries to control the number of free nids and nat caches not to consume over
10 * (4GB / 1024) = 10MB.

When considering a bunch of data writes with very frequent fsync calls, we
are able to think the following performance regression.
N: Node IO, D: Data IO, IO scheduler: cfq
Issue pending IOs
D1 D2 D3 D4
D1 D2 D3 D4 N1
D2 D3 D4 N1 N2
N1 D3 D4 N2 D1
--> N1 can be selected by cfq becase of the same priority of N and D.
Then D3 and D4 would be delayed, resuling in performance degradation.
So, when processing the fsync call, it'd better give higher priority to data IOs
than node IOs by assigning WRITE and WRITE_SYNC respectively.
This patch improves the random wirte performance with frequent fsync calls by up
to 10%.

The truncate_partial_nodes puts pages incorrectly in the following two cases.
Note that the value for argc 'depth' can only be 2 or 3.
Please see truncate_inode_blocks() and truncate_partial_nodes().
1) An err is occurred in the first 'for' loop
When err is occurred with depth = 2, pages[0] is invalid, so this page doesn't
need to be put. There is no problem, however, when depth is 3, it doesn't put
the pages correctly where pages[0] is valid and pages[1] is invalid.
In this case, depth is set to 2 (ref to statemnt depth = i + 1), and then
'goto fail'.
In label 'fail', for (i = depth - 3; i >= 0; i--) cannot meet the condition
because i = -1, so pages[0] cann't be put.
2) An err happened in the second 'for' loop
Now we've got pages[0] with depth = 2, or we've got pages[0] and pages[1]
with depth = 3. When an err is detected, we need 'goto fail' to put such
the pages.
When depth is 2, in label 'fail', for (i = depth - 3; i >= 0; i--) cann't
meet the condition because i = -1, so pages[0] cann't be put.
When depth is 3, in label 'fail', for (i = depth - 3; i >= 0; i--) can
only put pages[0], pages[1] also cann't be put.
Note that 'depth' has been changed before first 'goto fail' (ref to statemnt
depth = i + 1), so passing this modified 'depth' to the tracepoint,
trace_f2fs_truncate_partial_nodes, is also incorrect.

Previously, we experience bio traces as follows when running simple sequential
write test.
f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500104928, size = 4K
f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499922208, size = 368K
f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499914752, size = 140K
-> total 512K
The first one is to write an indirect node block, and the others are to write
direct node blocks.
The reason why there are two separate bios for direct node blocks is:
0. initial state
------------------ ------------------
| | |xxxxxxxx |
------------------ ------------------
1. write 368K
------------------ ------------------
| | |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW|
------------------ ------------------
2. write 140K
------------------ ------------------
|WWWWWWW | |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW|
------------------ ------------------
This is because f2fs_write_node_pages tries to write just 512K totally, so that
we can lose the chance to merge more bios nicely.
After this patch is applied, we can get the following bio traces.
f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500103168, size = 8K
f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500111368, size = 4K
f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500107272, size = 512K
f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500108296, size = 512K
f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500109320, size = 500K
And finally, we can improve the sequential write performance,

This patch adds the support of security labels for f2fs, which will be used
by Linus Security Models (LSMs).
Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Security_Modules:
"Linux Security Modules (LSM) is a framework that allows the Linux kernel to
support a variety of computer security models while avoiding favoritism toward
any single security implementation. The framework is licensed under the terms of
the GNU General Public License and is standard part of the Linux kernel since
Linux 2.6. AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO Linux are the currently accepted
modules in the official kernel.".

I found a bug when testing power-off-recovery as follows.
[Bug Scenario]
1. create a file
2. fsync the file
3. reboot w/o any sync
4. try to recover the file
- found its fsync mark
- found its dentry mark
: try to recover its dentry
- get its file name
- get its parent inode number
: here we got zero value
The reason why we get the wrong parent inode number is that we didn't
synchronize the inode page with its newly created inode information perfectly.
Especially, previous f2fs stores fi->i_pino and writes it to the cached
node page in a wrong order, which incurs the zero-valued i_pino during the
recovery.
So, this patch modifies the creation flow to fix the synchronization order of
inode page with its inode.

Currently f2fs recovers the dentry of fsynced files.
When power-off-recovery is conducted, this newly recovered inode should increase
node block count as well as inode block count.
This patch resolves this inconsistency that results in:
1. create a file
2. write data
3. fsync
4. reboot without sync
5. mount and recover the file
6. node block count is 1 and inode block count is 2
: fall into the inconsistent state
7. unlink the file
: trigger the following BUG_ON

Currently there is no way to truncate partial page where the end
truncate point is not at the end of the page. This is because it was not
needed and the functionality was enough for file system truncate
operation to work properly. However more file systems now support punch
hole feature and it can benefit from mm supporting truncating page just
up to the certain point.
Specifically, with this functionality truncate_inode_pages_range() can
be changed so it supports truncating partial page at the end of the
range (currently it will BUG_ON() if 'end' is not at the end of the
page).
This commit changes the invalidatepage() address space operation
prototype to accept range to be invalidated and update all the instances
for it.
We also change the block_invalidatepage() in the same way and actually
make a use of the new length argument implementing range invalidation.
Actual file system implementations will follow except the file systems
where the changes are really simple and should not change the behaviour
in any way .Implementation for truncate_page_range() which will be able
to accept page unaligned ranges will follow as well.

After build_free_nids() searches free nid candidates from nat pages and
current journal blocks, it checks all the candidates if they are allocated
so that the nat cache has its nid with an allocated block address.
In this procedure, previously we used
list_for_each_entry_safe(fnid, next_fnid, &nm_i->free_nid_list, list).
But, this is not covered by free_nid_list_lock, resulting in null pointer bug.
This patch moves this checking routine inside add_free_nid() in order not to use
the spin_lock.

Directly drop the free_nid cache when nm_i->fcnt > 2 * MAX_FREE_NIDS
Since there is NOT nmi->free_nid_list_lock spinlock protection between
a sequential calling of alloc_nid() and alloc_nid_failed(), some other
threads may already add new free_nid to the free_nid_list during this
period.
We need to make sure nmi->fcnt is never > 2 * MAX_FREE_NIDS.

When testing f2fs on an SSD, I found some 128 page IOs followed by 1 page IO
were issued by f2fs_write_node_pages.
This means that there were some mishandling flows which degrades performance.
Previous f2fs_write_node_pages determines the number of pages to be written,
nr_to_write, as follows.
1. The bio_get_nr_vecs returns 129 pages.
2. The bio_alloc makes a room for 128 pages.
3. The initial 128 pages go into one bio.
4. The existing bio is submitted, and a new bio is prepared for the last 1 page.
5. Finally, sync_node_pages submits the last 1 page bio.
The problem is from the use of bio_get_nr_vecs, so this patch replace it
with max_hw_blocks using queue_max_sectors.

try_to_free_nats() is usually called with parameter nr_shrink as
"nm_i->nat_cnt - NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD"
by flush_nat_entries() during checkpointing process.
However, this is inconsistent with the actual threshold check as
"if (nm_i->nat_cnt < 2 * NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD)"
, which will ignore the free_nats requests when
NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD < nm_i->nat_cnt < 2 * NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD
So fix the threshold check condition.

We call lock_page when we need to update a page after readpage.
Between grab and lock page, the page can be truncated by other thread.
So, we should check the page after lock_page whether it was truncated or not.

In order to avoid build_free_nid lock contention, let's change the order of
function calls as follows.
At first, check whether there is enough free nids.
- If available, just get a free nid with spin_lock without any overhead.
- Otherwise, conduct build_free_nids.
: scan nat pages, journal nat entries, and nat cache entries.
We should consider carefullly not to serve free nids intermediately made by
build_free_nids.
We can get stable free nids only after build_free_nids is done.

In the previous version, f2fs uses global locks according to the usage types,
such as directory operations, block allocation, block write, and so on.
Reference the following lock types in f2fs.h.
enum lock_type {
RENAME, /* for renaming operations */
DENTRY_OPS, /* for directory operations */
DATA_WRITE, /* for data write */
DATA_NEW, /* for data allocation */
DATA_TRUNC, /* for data truncate */
NODE_NEW, /* for node allocation */
NODE_TRUNC, /* for node truncate */
NODE_WRITE, /* for node write */
NR_LOCK_TYPE,
};
In that case, we lose the performance under the multi-threading environment,
since every types of operations must be conducted one at a time.
In order to address the problem, let's share the locks globally with a mutex
array regardless of any types.
So, let users grab a mutex and perform their jobs in parallel as much as
possbile.
For this, I propose a new global lock scheme as follows.
0. Data structure
- f2fs_sb_info -> mutex_lock[NR_GLOBAL_LOCKS]
- f2fs_sb_info -> node_write
1. mutex_lock_op(sbi)
- try to get an avaiable lock from the array.
- returns the index of the gottern lock variable.
2. mutex_unlock_op(sbi, index of the lock)
- unlock the given index of the lock.
3. mutex_lock_all(sbi)
- grab all the locks in the array before the checkpoint.
4. mutex_unlock_all(sbi)
- release all the locks in the array after checkpoint.
5. block_operations()
- call mutex_lock_all()
- sync_dirty_dir_inodes()
- grab node_write
- sync_node_pages()
Note that,
the pairs of mutex_lock_op()/mutex_unlock_op() and
mutex_lock_all()/mutex_unlock_all() should be used together.
