Log incompat feature flags in the superblock exist for one purpose: to
protect the contents of a dirty log from replay on a kernel that isn't
prepared to handle those dirty contents. This means that they can be
cleared if (a) we know the log is clean and (b) we know that there
aren't any other threads in the system that might be setting or relying
upon a log incompat flag.
Therefore, clear the log incompat flags when we've finished recovering
the log, when we're unmounting cleanly, remounting read-only, or
freezing; and provide a function so that subsequent patches can start
using this.

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.

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.

to log the superblock separately for any reason. Update the log
quiesce path to sync the superblock at least once for any mount

the two machines is core count per socket. Both are running
identical 16p/16GB virtual machine configurations
Machine A:
25.83% [k] xfs_agino_range
12.68% [k] __xfs_dir3_data_check

6.78% [k] xfs_dir2_data_entry_tag_p

2.31% [k] xfs_verify_dir_ino
2.02% [k] xfs_dabuf_map.constprop.0

2.18% [k] __xfs_dir3_data_check
2.02% [k] xfs_log_commit_cil
And takes around 5m30s to remove 50 million inodes.
Suspect is cacheline contention on m_sectbb_log which is used in one
of the macros in xfs_agino_range. This is a read-only variable but
shares a cacheline with m_active_trans which is a global atomic that
gets bounced all around the machine.
The workload is trying to run hundreds of thousands of transactions
per second and hence cacheline contention will be occurring on this
atomic counter. Hence xfs_agino_range() is likely just be an
innocent bystander as the cache coherency protocol fights over the
cacheline between CPU cores and sockets.
On machine A, this rearrangement of the struct xfs_mount
results in the profile changing to:
9.77% [kernel] [k] xfs_agino_range
6.27% [kernel] [k] __xfs_dir3_data_check
5.31% [kernel] [k] __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
4.54% [kernel] [k] xfs_buf_find
3.79% [kernel] [k] do_raw_spin_lock
3.39% [kernel] [k] xfs_verify_ino
2.73% [kernel] [k] __raw_callee_save___pv_queued_spin_unlock
Vastly less CPU usage in xfs_agino_range(), but still 3x the amount
of machine B and still runs substantially slower than it should.
Current rm -rf of 50 million files:
vanilla patched
machine A 13m20s 6m42s
machine B 5m30s 5m02s
It's an improvement, hence indicating that separation and further
optimisation of read-only global filesystem data is worthwhile, but
it clearly isn't the underlying issue causing this specific
performance degradation.

Shaokun Zhang reported that XFS was using substantial CPU time in
percpu_count_sum() when running a single threaded benchmark on
a high CPU count (128p) machine from xfs_mod_ifree(). The issue
is that the filesystem is empty when the benchmark runs, so inode
allocation is running with a very low inode free count.
With the percpu counter batching, this means comparisons when the
counter is less that 128 * 256 = 32768 use the slow path of adding
up all the counters across the CPUs, and this is expensive on high
CPU count machines.
The summing in xfs_mod_ifree() is only used to fire an assert if an
underrun occurs. The error is ignored by the higher level code.
Hence this is really just debug code and we don't need to run it
on production kernels, nor do we need such debug checks to return
error values just to trigger an assert.
Finally, xfs_mod_icount/xfs_mod_ifree are only called from
xfs_trans_unreserve_and_mod_sb(), so get rid of them and just
directly call the percpu_counter_add/percpu_counter_compare
functions. The compare functions are now run only on debug builds as
they are internal to ASSERT() checks and so only compiled in when
ASSERTs are active (CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=y or CONFIG_XFS_WARN=y).

threads that skipped the inode flush scan due to ratelimiting would

behavior and sporadic fstest regressions.
Therefore, make all the writer threads wait on a single inode flush,
which eliminates both the stampeding hordes of flushers and the small
window in which a write could fail with ENOSPC because it lost the

In addition, they complain that the lengthy xfs_flush_inodes scan traps

If there's thousands of threads trying to write to files on a full

i_delayed_blks) does not track allocated CoW staging extents or anything
going on with the realtime device. It will be used in the upcoming
summary counter scrub function to check the free block counts without
having to freeze the filesystem or walk all the inodes to find the
delayed allocations.

Add a mode where XFS never overwrites existing blocks in place. This
is to aid debugging our COW code, and also put infatructure in place
for things like possible future support for zoned block devices, which
can't support overwrites.
This mode is enabled globally by doing a:
echo 1 > /sys/fs/xfs/debug/always_cow
Note that the parameter is global to allow running all tests in xfstests
easily in this mode, which would not easily be possible with a per-fs
sysfs file.
In always_cow mode persistent preallocations are disabled, and fallocate
will fail when called with a 0 mode (with our without
FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE), and not create unwritten extent for zeroed space
when called with FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE or FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.
There are a few interesting xfstests failures when run in always_cow
mode:
- generic/392 fails because the bytes used in the file used to test
hole punch recovery are less after the log replay. This is
because the blocks written and then punched out are only freed
with a delay due to the logging mechanism.
- xfs/170 will fail as the already fragile file streams mechanism
doesn't seem to interact well with the COW allocator
- xfs/180 xfs/182 xfs/192 xfs/198 xfs/204 and xfs/208 will claim
the file system is badly fragmented, but there is not much we
can do to avoid that when always writing out of place
- xfs/205 fails because overwriting a file in always_cow mode
will require new space allocation and the assumption in the
test thus don't work anymore.
- xfs/326 fails to modify the file at all in always_cow mode after
injecting the refcount error, leading to an unexpected md5sum
after the remount, but that again is expected

Use a rhashtable to cache the unlinked list incore. This should speed
up unlinked processing considerably when there are a lot of inodes on
the unlinked list because iunlink_remove no longer has to traverse an
entire bucket list to find which inode points to the one being removed.
The incore list structure records "X.next_unlinked = Y" relations, with
the rhashtable using Y to index the records. This makes finding the
inode X that points to a inode Y very quick. If our cache fails to find
anything we can always fall back on the old method.
FWIW this drastically reduces the amount of time it takes to remove
inodes from the unlinked list. I wrote a program to open a lot of
O_TMPFILE files and then close them in the same order, which takes
a very long time if we have to traverse the unlinked lists. With the
ptach, I see:

Opened 193531 files in 6.33s.
Closed 193531 files in 5.86s

The realtime summary is a two-dimensional array on disk, effectively:
u32 rsum[log2(number of realtime extents) + 1][number of blocks in the bitmap]
rsum[log][bbno] is the number of extents of size 2**log which start in
bitmap block bbno.
xfs_rtallocate_extent_near() uses xfs_rtany_summary() to check whether
rsum[log][bbno] != 0 for any log level. However, the summary array is
stored in row-major order (i.e., like an array in C), so all of these
entries are not adjacent, but rather spread across the entire summary
file. In the worst case (a full bitmap block), xfs_rtany_summary() has
to check every level.
This means that on a moderately-used realtime device, an allocation will
waste a lot of time finding, reading, and releasing buffers for the
realtime summary. In particular, one of our storage services (which runs
on servers with 8 very slow CPUs and 15 8 TB XFS realtime filesystems)
spends almost 5% of its CPU cycles in xfs_rtbuf_get() and
xfs_trans_brelse() called from xfs_rtany_summary().
One solution would be to also store the summary with the dimensions
swapped. However, this would require a disk format change to a very old
component of XFS.
Instead, we can cache the minimum size which contains any extents. We do
so lazily; rather than guaranteeing that the cache contains the precise
minimum, it always contains a loose lower bound which we tighten when we
read or update a summary block. This only uses a few kilobytes of memory
and is already serialized via the realtime bitmap and summary inode
locks, so the cost is minimal. With this change, the same workload only
spends 0.2% of its CPU cycles in the realtime allocator.
