2020-03-23btrfs: delayed-inode: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array memberGustavo A. R. Silva
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero." [1] This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

2018-10-15Btrfs: delayed-inode: use rb_first_cached for ins_root and del_rootLiu Bo
rb_first_cached() trades an extra pointer "leftmost" for doing the same job as rb_first() but in O(1). Functions manipulating delayed_item need to get the first entry, this converts it to use rb_first_cached(). For more details about the optimization see patch "Btrfs: delayed-refs: use rb_first_cached for href_root".

2018-03-26btrfs: add more __cold annotationsDavid Sterba
The __cold functions are placed to a special section, as they're expected to be called rarely. This could help i-cache prefetches or help compiler to decide which branches are more/less likely to be taken without any other annotations needed. Though we can't add more __exit annotations, it's still possible to add __cold (that's also added with __exit). That way the following function categories are tagged: - printf wrappers, error messages - exit helpers Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>

2016-11-30btrfs: increment ctx->pos for every emitted or skipped dirent in readdirJeff Mahoney
If we process the last item in the leaf and hit an I/O error while reading the next leaf, we return -EIO without having adjusted the position. Since we have emitted dirents, getdents() will return the byte count to the user instead of the error. Subsequent callers will emit the last successful dirent again, and return -EIO again, with the same result. Callers loop forever. Instead, if we always increment ctx->pos after emitting or skipping the dirent, we'll be sure that we won't hit the same one again. When we go to process the next leaf, we won't have emitted any dirents and the -EIO will be returned to the user properly. We also don't need to track if we've emitted a dirent already or if we've changed the position yet.

2016-06-25Btrfs: fix ->iterate_shared() by upgrading i_rwsem for delayed nodesOmar Sandoval
Commit fe742fd4f90f ("Revert "btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared()"") backed out the conversion to ->iterate_shared() for Btrfs because the delayed inode handling in btrfs_real_readdir() is racy. However, we can still do readdir in parallel if there are no delayed nodes. This is a temporary fix which upgrades the shared inode lock to an exclusive lock only when we have delayed items until we come up with a more complete solution. While we're here, rename the btrfs_{get,put}_delayed_items functions to make it very clear that they're just for readdir. Tested with xfstests and by doing a parallel kernel build: while make tinyconfig && make -j4 && git clean dqfx; do : done along with a bunch of parallel finds in another shell: while true; do for ((i=0; i<4; i++)); do find . >/dev/null & done wait done Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com>
2016-02-11btrfs: properly set the termination value of ctx->pos in readdirDavid Sterba
The value of ctx->pos in the last readdir call is supposed to be set to INT_MAX due to 32bit compatibility, unless 'pos' is intentially set to a larger value, then it's LLONG_MAX. There's a report from PaX SIZE_OVERFLOW plugin that "ctx->pos++" overflows (https://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4284), on a 64bit arch, where the value is 0x7fffffffffffffff ie. LLONG_MAX before the increment. We can get to that situation like that: * emit all regular readdir entries * still in the same call to readdir, bump the last pos to INT_MAX * next call to readdir will not emit any entries, but will reach the bump code again, finds pos to be INT_MAX and sets it to LLONG_MAX Normally this is not a problem, but if we call readdir again, we'll find 'pos' set to LLONG_MAX and the unconditional increment will overflow. The report from Victor at (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/49500) with debugging print shows that pattern: Overflow: e Overflow: 7fffffff Overflow: 7fffffffffffffff PAX: size overflow detected in function btrfs_real_readdir fs/btrfs/inode.c:5760 cicus.935_282 max, count: 9, decl: pos; num: 0; context: dir_context; CPU: 0 PID: 2630 Comm: polkitd Not tainted 4.2.3-grsec #1 Hardware name: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.

Then the code could go to the bump section again even though it might not emit any new dir entries from the delayed list. The fix avoids entering the "bump" section again once we've finished emitting the entries, both for synced and delayed entries.

2014-01-28Btrfs: introduce the delayed inode ref deletion for the single link inodeMiao Xie
The inode reference item is close to inode item, so we insert it simultaneously with the inode item insertion when we create a file/directory.. In fact, we also can handle the inode reference deletion by the same way. So we made this patch to introduce the delayed inode reference deletion for the single link inode(At most case, the file doesn't has hard link, so we don't take the hard link into account). This function is based on the delayed inode mechanism. After applying this patch, we can reduce the time of the file/directory deletion by ~10%.

2013-03-07Btrfs: improve the delayed inode throttlingChris Mason
The delayed inode code batches up changes to the btree in hopes of doing them in bulk. As the changes build up, processes kick off worker threads and wait for them to make progress. The current code kicks off an async work queue item for each delayed node, which creates a lot of churn. It also uses a fixed 1 HZ waiting period for the throttle, which allows us to build a lot of pending work and can slow down the commit. This changes us to watch a sequence counter as it is bumped during the operations. We kick off fewer work items and have each work item do more work.

2012-07-23Btrfs: flush delayed inodes if we're short on spaceJosef Bacik
Those crazy gentoo guys have been complaining about ENOSPC errors on their portage volumes. This is because doing things like untar tends to create lots of new files which will soak up all the reservation space in the delayed inodes. Usually this gets papered over by the fact that we will try and commit the transaction, however if this happens in the wrong spot or we choose not to commit the transaction you will be screwed. So add the ability to expclitly flush delayed inodes to free up space. Please test this out guys to make sure it works since as usual I cannot reproduce.

2011-06-17Btrfs: avoid delayed metadata items during commitsChris Mason
Snapshot creation has two phases. One is the initial snapshot setup, and the second is done during commit, while nobody is allowed to modify the root we are snapshotting. The delayed metadata insertion code can break that rule, it does a delayed inode update on the inode of the parent of the snapshot, and delayed directory item insertion. This makes sure to run the pending delayed operations before we record the snapshot root, which avoids corruptions. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2011-05-21btrfs: implement delayed inode items operationMiao Xie
Changelog V5 -> V6: - Fix oom when the memory load is high, by storing the delayed nodes into the root's radix tree, and letting btrfs inodes go. Changelog V4 -> V5: - Fix the race on adding the delayed node to the inode, which is spotted by Chris Mason. - Merge Chris Mason's incremental patch into this patch. - Fix deadlock between readdir() and memory fault, which is reported by Itaru Kitayama. Changelog V3 -> V4: - Fix nested lock, which is reported by Itaru Kitayama, by updating space cache inode in time. Changelog V2 -> V3: - Fix the race between the delayed worker and the task which does delayed items balance, which is reported by Tsutomu Itoh. - Modify the patch address David Sterba's comment. - Fix the bug of the cpu recursion spinlock, reported by Chris Mason Changelog V1 -> V2: - break up the global rb-tree, use a list to manage the delayed nodes, which is created for every directory and file, and used to manage the delayed directory name index items and the delayed inode item. - introduce a worker to deal with the delayed nodes. Compare with Ext3/4, the performance of file creation and deletion on btrfs is very poor. the reason is that btrfs must do a lot of b+ tree insertions, such as inode item, directory name item, directory name index and so on. If we can do some delayed b+ tree insertion or deletion, we can improve the performance, so we made this patch which implemented delayed directory name index insertion/deletion and delayed inode update. Implementation: - introduce a delayed root object into the filesystem, that use two lists to manage the delayed nodes which are created for every file/directory. One is used to manage all the delayed nodes that have delayed items. And the other is used to manage the delayed nodes which is waiting to be dealt with by the work thread. - Every delayed node has two rb-tree, one is used to manage the directory name index which is going to be inserted into b+ tree, and the other is used to manage the directory name index which is going to be deleted from b+ tree. - introduce a worker to deal with the delayed operation. This worker is used to deal with the works of the delayed directory name index items insertion and deletion and the delayed inode update. When the delayed items is beyond the lower limit, we create works for some delayed nodes and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then go back. When the delayed items is beyond the upper bound, we create works for all the delayed nodes that haven't been dealt with, and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then wait for that the untreated items is below some threshold value. - When we want to insert a directory name index into b+ tree, we just add the information into the delayed inserting rb-tree. And then we check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items balance. (The balance policy is above.) - When we want to delete a directory name index from the b+ tree, we search it in the inserting rb-tree at first. If we look it up, just drop it. If not, add the key of it into the delayed deleting rb-tree. Similar to the delayed inserting rb-tree, we also check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items balance. (The same to inserting manipulation) - When we want to update the metadata of some inode, we cached the data of the inode into the delayed node. the worker will flush it into the b+ tree after dealing with the delayed insertion and deletion. - We will move the delayed node to the tail of the list after we access the delayed node, By this way, we can cache more delayed items and merge more inode updates. - If we want to commit transaction, we will deal with all the delayed node. - the delayed node will be freed when we free the btrfs inode. - Before we log the inode items, we commit all the directory name index items and the delayed inode update. I did a quick test by the benchmark tool[1] and found we can improve the performance of file creation by ~15%, and file deletion by ~20%.
