| * jbd2: clear BH_Delay & BH_Unwritten in journal_unmap_bufferEric Sandeen2012-02-201-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | journal_unmap_buffer()'s zap_buffer: code clears a lot of buffer head state ala discard_buffer(), but does not touch _Delay or _Unwritten as discard_buffer() does. This can be problematic in some areas of the ext4 code which assume that if they have found a buffer marked unwritten or delay, then it's a live one. Perhaps those spots should check whether it is mapped as well, but if jbd2 is going to tear down a buffer, let's really tear it down completely. Without this I get some fsx failures on sub-page-block filesystems up until v3.2, at which point 4e96b2dbbf1d7e81f22047a50f862555a6cb87cb and 189e868fa8fdca702eb9db9d8afc46b5cb9144c9 make the failures go away, because buried within that large change is some more flag clearing. I still think it's worth doing in jbd2, since ->invalidatepage leads here directly, and it's the right place to clear away these flags.

* jbd2: add debugging information to jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata()Theodore Ts'o2011-09-041-6/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add debugging information in case jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() is called with a buffer_head which didn't have jbd2_journal_get_write_access() called on it, or if the journal_head has the wrong transaction in it. In addition, return an error code. This won't change anything for ocfs2, which will BUG_ON() the non-zero exit code. For ext4, the caller of this function is ext4_handle_dirty_metadata(), and on seeing a non-zero return code, will call __ext4_journal_stop(), which will print the function and line number of the (buggy) calling function and abort the journal. This will allow us to recover instead of bug halting, which is better from a robustness and reliability point of view. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
* jbd2: Fix oops in jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head()Jan Kara2011-06-131-32/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() can oops when trying to access journal_head returned by bh2jh(). This is caused for example by the following race: TASK1 TASK2 jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() ... processing t_forget list __jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(jh); if (!jh->b_transaction) { jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh); jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() jbd2_journal_grab_journal_head(bh) jbd_lock_bh_state(bh) __journal_try_to_free_buffer() jbd2_journal_put_journal_head(jh) jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head(bh); jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() in TASK2 sees that b_jcount == 0 and buffer is not part of any transaction and thus frees journal_head before TASK1 gets to doing so. Note that even buffer_head can be released by try_to_free_buffers() after jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() which adds even larger opportunity for oops (but I didn't see this happen in reality). Fix the problem by making transactions hold their own journal_head reference (in b_jcount). That way we don't have to remove journal_head explicitely via jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() and instead just remove journal_head when b_jcount drops to zero. The result of this is that [__]jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(), [__]jbd2_journal_unfile_buffer(), and __jdb2_journal_remove_checkpoint() can free journal_head which needs modification of a few callers. Also we have to be careful because once journal_head is removed, buffer_head might be freed as well. So we have to get our own buffer_head reference where it matters.

* jbd2: fix sending of data flush on journal commitJan Kara2011-05-241-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In data=ordered mode, it's theoretically possible (however rare) that an inode is filed to transaction's t_inode_list and a flusher thread writes all the data and inode is reclaimed before the transaction starts to commit. In such a case, we could erroneously omit sending a flush to file system device when it is different from the journal device (because data can still be in disk cache only). Fix the problem by setting a flag in a transaction when some inode is added to it and then send disk flush in the commit code when the flag is set.

* jbd2: Fix the wrong calculation of t_max_wait in update_t_max_waitTao Ma2011-05-231-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | t_max_wait is added in commit 8e85fb3f to indicate how long we were waiting for new transaction to start. In commit 6d0bf005, it is moved to another function named update_t_max_wait to avoid a build warning. But the wrong thing is that the original 'ts' is initialized in the start of function start_this_handle and we can calculate t_max_wait in the right way. while with this change, ts is initialized within the function and t_max_wait can never be calculated right. This patch moves the initialization of ts to the original beginning of start_this_handle and pass it to function update_t_max_wait so that it can be calculated right and the build warning is avoided also.

* jbd2: call __jbd2_log_start_commit with j_state_lock write lockedTheodore Ts'o2011-02-121-7/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On an SMP ARM system running ext4, I've received a report that the first J_ASSERT in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction has been triggering: J_ASSERT(journal->j_running_transaction != NULL); While investigating possible causes for this problem, I noticed that __jbd2_log_start_commit() is getting called with j_state_lock only read-locked, in spite of the fact that it's possible for it might j_commit_request. Fix this by grabbing the necessary information so we can test to see if we need to start a new transaction before dropping the read lock, and then calling jbd2_log_start_commit() which will grab the write lock.

* | jbd2/ocfs2: Fix block checksumming when a buffer is used in several transactionsJan Kara2010-07-161-3/+6
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OCFS2 uses t_commit trigger to compute and store checksum of the just committed blocks. When a buffer has b_frozen_data, checksum is computed for it instead of b_data but this can result in an old checksum being written to the filesystem in the following scenario: 1) transaction1 is opened 2) handle1 is opened 3) journal_access(handle1, bh) - This sets jh->b_transaction to transaction1 4) modify(bh) 5) journal_dirty(handle1, bh) 6) handle1 is closed 7) start committing transaction1, opening transaction2 8) handle2 is opened 9) journal_access(handle2, bh) - This copies off b_frozen_data to make it safe for transaction1 to commit. jh->b_next_transaction is set to transaction2. 10) jbd2_journal_write_metadata() checksums b_frozen_data 11) the journal correctly writes b_frozen_data to the disk journal 12) handle2 is closed - There was no dirty call for the bh on handle2, so it is never queued for any more journal operation 13) Checkpointing finally happens, and it just spools the bh via normal buffer writeback. This will write b_data, which was never triggered on and thus contains a wrong (old) checksum. This patch fixes the problem by calling the trigger at the moment data is frozen for journal commit - i.e., either when b_frozen_data is created by do_get_write_access or just before we write a buffer to the log if b_frozen_data does not exist. We also rename the trigger to t_frozen as that better describes when it is called.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following race can happen: CPU1 CPU2 checkpointing code checks the buffer, adds it to an array for writeback do_get_write_access() ... lock_buffer() unlock_buffer() flush_batch() submits the buffer for IO __jbd2_journal_file_buffer() So a buffer under writeout is returned from do_get_write_access(). Since the filesystem code relies on the fact that journaled buffers cannot be written out, it does not take the buffer lock and so it can modify buffer while it is under writeout. That can lead to a filesystem corruption if we crash at the right moment. We fix the problem by clearing the buffer dirty bit under buffer_lock even if the buffer is on BJ_None list. Actually, we clear the dirty bit regardless the list the buffer is in and warn about the fact if the buffer is already journalled.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the static sleep time in favor of a more self optimizing approach where we measure the average amount of time it takes to commit a transaction to disk and the ammount of time a transaction has been running. If somebody does a sync write or an fsync() traditionally we would sleep for 1 jiffies, which depending on the value of HZ could be a significant amount of time compared to how long it takes to commit a transaction to the underlying storage. With this patch instead of sleeping for a jiffie, we check to see if the amount of time this transaction has been running is less than the average commit time, and if it is we sleep for the delta using schedule_hrtimeout to give us a higher precision sleep time. This greatly benefits high end storage where you could end up sleeping for longer than it takes to commit the transaction and therefore sitting idle instead of allowing the transaction to be committed by keeping the sleep time to a minimum so you are sure to always be doing something.

* | jbd2: Add buffer triggersJoel Becker2009-01-051-0/+47
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Filesystems often to do compute intensive operation on some metadata. If this operation is repeated many times, it can be very expensive. It would be much nicer if the operation could be performed once before a buffer goes to disk. This adds triggers to jbd2 buffer heads. Just before writing a metadata buffer to the journal, jbd2 will optionally call a commit trigger associated with the buffer. If the journal is aborted, an abort trigger will be called on any dirty buffers as they are dropped from pending transactions. ocfs2 will use this feature. Initially I tried to come up with a more generic trigger that could be used for non-buffer-related events like transaction completion. It doesn't tie nicely, because the information a buffer trigger needs (specific to a journal_head) isn't the same as what a transaction trigger needs (specific to a tranaction_t or perhaps journal_t). So I implemented a buffer set, with the understanding that journal/transaction wide triggers should be implemented separately. There is only one trigger set allowed per buffer. I can't think of any reason to attach more than one set. Contrast this with a journal or transaction in which multiple places may want to watch the entire transaction separately. The trigger sets are considered static allocation from the jbd2 perspective. ocfs2 will just have one trigger set per block type, setting the same set on every bh of the same type.

* ext4: Replace hackish ext4_mb_poll_new_transaction with commit callbackTheodore Ts'o2008-10-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The multiblock allocator needs to be able to release blocks (and issue a blkdev discard request) when the transaction which freed those blocks is committed. Previously this was done via a polling mechanism when blocks are allocated or freed. A much better way of doing things is to create a jbd2 callback function and attaching the list of blocks to be freed directly to the transaction structure.

* jbd2: Implement data=ordered mode handling via inodesJan Kara2008-07-121-0/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds necessary framework into JBD2 to be able to track inodes with each transaction and write-out their dirty data during transaction commit time. This new ordered mode brings all sorts of advantages such as possibility to get rid of journal heads and buffer heads for data buffers in ordered mode, better ordering of writes on transaction commit, simplification of some JBD code, no more anonymous pages when truncate of data being committed happens. Also with this new ordered mode, delayed allocation on ordered mode is much simpler. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
* jbd2: fix race between jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() and jbd2 commit ↵Mingming Cao2008-07-141-4/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | transaction journal_try_to_free_buffers() could race with jbd commit transaction when the later is holding the buffer reference while waiting for the data buffer to flush to disk. If the caller of journal_try_to_free_buffers() request tries hard to release the buffers, it will treat the failure as error and return back to the caller. We have seen the directo IO failed due to this race. Some of the caller of releasepage() also expecting the buffer to be dropped when passed with GFP_KERNEL mask to the releasepage()->journal_try_to_free_buffers(). With this patch, if the caller is passing the GFP_KERNEL to indicating this call could wait, in case of try_to_free_buffers() failed, let's waiting for journal_commit_transaction() to finish commit the current committing transaction , then try to free those buffers again with journal locked.

* jbd2: fix possible journal overflow issuesJosef Bacik2008-04-171-3/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are several cases where the running transaction can get buffers added to its BJ_Metadata list which it never dirtied, which makes its t_nr_buffers counter end up larger than its t_outstanding_credits counter. This will cause issues when starting new transactions as while we are logging buffers we decrement t_outstanding_buffers, so when t_outstanding_buffers goes negative, we will report that we need less space in the journal than we actually need, so transactions will be started even though there may not be enough room for them. In the worst case scenario (which admittedly is almost impossible to reproduce) this will result in the journal running out of space. The fix is to only refile buffers from the committing transaction to the running transactions BJ_Modified list when b_modified is set on that journal, which is the only way to be sure if the running transaction has modified that buffer. This patch also fixes an accounting error in journal_forget, it is possible that we can call journal_forget on a buffer without having modified it, only gotten write access to it, so instead of freeing a credit, we only do so if the buffer was modified. The assert will help catch if this problem occurs. Without these two patches I could hit this assert within minutes of running postmark, with them this issue no longer arises.

* jbd2: fix the way the b_modified flag is clearedJosef Bacik2008-04-171-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently at the start of a journal commit we loop through all of the buffers on the committing transaction and clear the b_modified flag (the flag that is set when a transaction modifies the buffer) under the j_list_lock. The problem is that everywhere else this flag is modified only under the jbd2 lock buffer flag, so it will race with a running transaction who could potentially set it, and have it unset by the committing transaction. This is also a big waste, you can have several thousands of buffers that you are clearing the modified flag on when you may not need to. This patch removes this code and instead clears the b_modified flag upon entering do_get_write_access/journal_get_create_access, so if that transaction does indeed use the buffer then it will be accounted for properly, and if it does not then we know we didn't use it. That will be important for the next patch in this series. Tested thoroughly by myself using postmark/iozone/bonnie++.
