[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (merge window)

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

The most interesting "feature" in this patch set is the RCU glock
patch which has been a long time coming, but is finally here. That
patch contains most of the changes this time. The other patches ins
this set are mostly smaller bug fixes and performance improvements.

Steve.

Hi,

This time, most of the GFS2 patches are code clean up, although there
are a few bug fixes (fallocate/ail writeback/end of life inodes/nlink) and
some new features (new tracepoint & tracing flags, using the UUID field
in the generic superblock).

The changes can be broadly divided into three sets:

1. Bob's directory code clean up
2. My fsync/ail writeback fixes & clean up
3. inode.c/ops_inode.c clean up

Steve.

Hi,

Not a lot new this time... the addition of a cache for the directory hash table
improve directory read/lookup speed, automatic adjustment of the glock hold
time improves performance for some contention corner cases. S_NOSEC support
is another performance related change, plus a nice clean up from Eric
Sandeen,

Steve.

Hi,

Since the merge window is upon us, here is the current content of
the GFS2 git tree. A few things will be help back to the following
merge window in order to ensure a greater test time, but those currently
in the tree are ready for the current window.

Recently I've reconstituted the GFS2 git tree, so it can be pulled
(via http) from:

http://sucs.org/~rohan/git/gfs2-3.0-nmw

and viewed via gitweb at:

http://sucs.org/gitweb/

This is thanks to the Swansea University Computer Society for providing
a temporary (or possibly permanent) home for the GFS2 git trees. Please
treat their server kindly as this will only continue while it doesn't
generate too much traffic. I figure that there will not be too many
people pulling the GFS2 tree at once, but we'll see.

Some highlights of the current patch set:
 o Reduction in code of approx 400 lines
 o Big clean up (and speed up) in the resource group code
   - This is a nice base to build some forthcoming improvements on
   - It should improve performance with multi-threaded workloads
 o Some left-over fsync/writeback changes
 o Improvements to readahead when deallocating large directories

Any questions/concerns then please let me know as usual,

Steve.

Hi,

The main feature this time is clean up around the allocation and
resource group code. Otherwise the remainder is mostly small
bug fixes.

I've held back the glock stats patch and that will probably be
ready for the following merge window with a bit of luck,

Steve.

Hi,

Not a huge number of patches this time. Some notable new features
though:
 - Glock stats gathering (v. useful for performance analysis)
 - FITRIM ioctl support
 - Sorting the ordered write list (big performance increase when the workload
   doesn't result in the write requests being nicely ordered to start with)

Plus a few clean ups, and bug fixes in addition,

Steve.

Does the following fix the problem? If so then I'll roll that into the
tree before it gets pushed,

Hmm, ok. I'll look at this again. I'm not sure why DLM is still calling
itself EXPERIMENTAL since thats long since not been the case, maybe SCTP
still is, but I don't think GFS2 should be selecting EXPERIMENTAL
directly, anyway. It is rather easy to tie ones' self in knots with this
config language.... since GFS2_FS_LOCKING_DLM depends on NET && INET &&
(IPV6 || IPV6=n) && HOTPLUG then all those other deps must presumably be
set anyway, so I don't understand quite why DLM doesn't have those
available to it.

I'll dig around a bit and see if I can figure out whats going on here,

Steve.

Since the pending patch set doesn't affect the Kconfig at all, I don't
think that this issue needs to hold up merging the GFS2 tree. We'll
follow up with a fix for this later on,

Here's what we have now:

config GFS2_FS
        tristate "GFS2 file system support"
        depends on (64BIT || LBDAF)
        select DLM if GFS2_FS_LOCKING_DLM
        select CONFIGFS_FS if GFS2_FS_LOCKING_DLM
        select SYSFS if GFS2_FS_LOCKING_DLM
        select IP_SCTP if DLM_SCTP
        select FS_POSIX_ACL
        select CRC32
        select QUOTACTL

menuconfig DLM
        tristate "Distributed Lock Manager (DLM)"
        depends on EXPERIMENTAL && INET
        depends on SYSFS && CONFIGFS_FS && (IPV6 || IPV6=n)
        select IP_SCTP

Why does gfs2 Kconfig bother with SCTP at all?  It seems that line should
just be removed.  I'll also remove EXPERIMENTAL.  I don't understand the
vagaries of Kconfig, so a dumb question, how could sctp_do_peeloff
possibly be undefined if we're selecting SCTP.

The DLM_SCTP is historical. There used to be such a thing, but that
config option went away, and there is now run time selection of the DLM
transport. So that the GFS2 Kconfig should have been updated, however
that appears not to be enough on its own to resolve the issue,

Steve.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/8/222 seems to have caused this by adding
the new dependency on the sctp module without any Kconfig changes.

Should that patch have added depends IP_SCTP to the dlm and gfs2?

That looks ok to me. I've put it in the GFS2 -fixes tree, and if

It is in the GFS2 -nmw tree now, so it will be in linux-next shortly.
I'll merge up the -fixes tree shortly, but I'm expecting one more patch
for that very shortly,

[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (merge window)

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

Since the merge window appears to be fast approaching, here are the
current GFS2 patches. This time there are two main themes, one is
updates to the log code, mostly on the writing side. The other is
preparation for some block reservation work which will probably
land in the subsequent merge window.

There is of course the usual collection of cleanup and bug fixes
as well. See the individual patches for the detailed descriptions,

Steve.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 01/24] GFS2: Drop "pull" argument from log_write_header()

[Steven Whitehouse]

The "pull" argument to log_write_header() is only used
for debug purposes and it is not really needed any more. There
are other tests for this particular problem, so I think we can
dispose of it in order to simplify the code.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 02/24] GFS2: Make gfs2_log_fake_buf() write the buffer too

[Steven Whitehouse]

Since we always write the buffer directly after this function
returns, we might as well merge it into here. This is a clean
up in preparation for some further updates to the log code
which are coming soon.

This patch just fixes a bunch of function parameter comments.
Slowly, over the years, the comments have gotten out of date
(mostly my fault, as I haven't been good at keeping them up to date).
This patch rectifies some of that.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 08/24] GFS2: Change variable blk to biblk

[Steven Whitehouse]

From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

In the resource group code, we have no less than three different
kinds of block references: block relative to the file system (u64),
block relative to the rgrp (u32), and block relative to the bitmap.
This is a small step to making the code more readable; it renames
variable blk to biblk to solidify in my mind that it's relative to
the bitmap and nothing else.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 09/24] GFS2: Use variable rather than qa to determine if unstuff necessary

[Steven Whitehouse]

From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

In the future, the qadata structure will be eliminated and merged
back in with the block reservation structure, after we extend the
lifespan of that. This patch is a step forward in eliminating the
qadata structure. It adds a variable to the do_grow function to
determine when unstuffing is necessary, and has been done.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 10/24] GFS2: Clean up log write code path

[Steven Whitehouse]

Prior to this patch, we have two ways of sending i/o to the log.
One of those is used when we need to allocate both the data
to be written itself and also a buffer head to submit it. This
is done via sb_getblk and friends. This is used mostly for writing
log headers.

The other method is used when writing blocks which have some
in-place counterpart. This is the case for all the metadata
blocks which are journalled, and when journaled data is in use,
for unescaped journalled data blocks.

This patch replaces both of those two methods, and about half
a dozen separate i/o submission points with a single i/o
submission function. We also go direct to bio rather than
using buffer heads, since this allows us to build i/o
requests of the maximum size for the block device in
question. It also reduces the memory required for flushing
the log, which can be very useful in low memory situations.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 11/24] GFS2: Remove duplicate log code

[Steven Whitehouse]

The main part of this patch merges the two functions used to
write metadata and data buffers to the log. Most of the code
is common between the two functions, so this provides a nice
clean up, and makes the code more readable.

The gfs2_get_log_desc() function is also extended to take two more
arguments, and thus avoid having to set the length and data1
fields of this strucuture as a separate operation.

Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 12/24] GFS2: Remove bd_list_tr

[Steven Whitehouse]

This is another clean up in the logging code. This per-transaction
list was largely unused. Its main function was to ensure that the
number of buffers in a transaction was correct, however that counter
was only used to check the number of buffers in the bd_list_tr, plus
an assert at the end of each transaction. With the assert now changed
to use the calculated buffer counts, we can remove both bd_list_tr and
its associated counter.

This should make the code easier to understand as well as shrinking
a couple of structures.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 13/24] GFS2: Remove unused argument from gfs2_internal_read

[Steven Whitehouse]

From: Andrew Price <anprice@redhat.com>

gfs2_internal_read accepts an unused ra_state argument, left over from
when we did readahead on the rindex. Since there are currently no plans
to add back this readahead, this patch removes the ra_state parameter
and updates the functions which call gfs2_internal_read accordingly.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 15/24] GFS2: Eliminate needless parameter from function gfs2_setbit

[Steven Whitehouse]

From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

This patch eliminates parameter "buf1" from function gfs2_setbit.
This is possible because it was always passed in as bi->bi_bh->b_data.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 17/24] GFS2: eliminate log elements and simplify

[Steven Whitehouse]

From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

This patch eliminates the gfs2_log_element data structure and
rolls its two components into the gfs2_bufdata. This makes the code
easier to understand and makes it easier to migrate to a rbtree
to keep the list sorted.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 18/24] GFS2: Fix sgid propagation when using ACLs

[Steven Whitehouse]

This cleans up the mode setting code when creating inodes. The
SGID bit was being reset by setattr_copy() when the user creating a
subdirectory was not in the owning group. When ACLs are in use this
SGID bit should have been propagated if the ACL allows creation of
a subdirectory. GFS2's behaviour now matches that of the other ACL
supporting filesystems in this regard.

+                           ------------------
+
+The stats are divided into two sets: those relating to the
+super block and those relating to an individual glock. The
+super block stats are done on a per cpu basis in order to
+try and reduce the overhead of gathering them. They are also
+further divided by glock type. All timings are in nanoseconds.
+
+In the case of both the super block and glock statistics,
+the same information is gathered in each case. The super
+block timing statistics are used to provide default values for
+the glock timing statistics, so that newly created glocks
+should have, as far as possible, a sensible starting point.
+The per-glock counters are initialised to zero when the
+glock is created. The per-glock statistics are lost when
+the glock is ejected from memory.
+
+The statistics are divided into three pairs of mean and
+variance, plus two counters. The mean/variance pairs are
+smoothed exponential estimates and the algorithm used is
+one which will be very familiar to those used to calculation
+of round trip times in network code. See "TCP/IP Illustrated,
+Volume 1", W. Richard Stevens, sect 21.3, "Round-Trip Time Measurement",
+p. 299 and onwards. Also, Volume 2, Sect. 25.10, p. 838 and onwards.
+Unlike the TCP/IP Illustrated case, the mean and variance are
+not scaled, but are in units of integer nanoseconds.
+
+The three pairs of mean/variance measure the following
+things:
+
+ 1. DLM lock time (non-blocking requests)
+ 2. DLM lock time (blocking requests)
+ 3. Inter-request time (again to the DLM)
+
+A non-blocking request is one which will complete right
+away, whatever the state of the DLM lock in question. That
+currently means any requests when (a) the current state of
+the lock is exclusive, i.e. a lock demotion (b) the requested
+state is either null or unlocked (again, a demotion) or (c) the
+"try lock" flag is set. A blocking request covers all the other
+lock requests.
+
+There are two counters. The first is there primarily to show
+how many lock requests have been made, and thus how much data
+has gone into the mean/variance calculations. The other counter
+is counting queuing of holders at the top layer of the glock
+code. Hopefully that number will be a lot larger than the number
+of dlm lock requests issued.
+
+So why gather these statistics? There are several reasons
+we'd like to get a better idea of these timings:
+
+1. To be able to better set the glock "min hold time"
+2. To spot performance issues more easily
+3. To improve the algorithm for selecting resource groups for
+allocation (to base it on lock wait time, rather than blindly
+using a "try lock")
+
+Due to the smoothing action of the updates, a step change in
+some input quantity being sampled will only fully be taken
+into account after 8 samples (or 4 for the variance) and this
+needs to be carefully considered when interpreting the
+results.
+
+Knowing both the time it takes a lock request to complete and
+the average time between lock requests for a glock means we
+can compute the total percentage of the time for which the
+node is able to use a glock vs. time that the rest of the
+cluster has its share. That will be very useful when setting
+the lock min hold time.
+
+Great care has been taken to ensure that we
+measure exactly the quantities that we want, as accurately
+as possible. There are always inaccuracies in any
+measuring system, but I hope this is as accurate as we
+can reasonably make it.
+
+Per sb stats can be found here:
+/sys/kernel/debug/gfs2/<fsname>/sbstats
+Per glock stats can be found here:
+/sys/kernel/debug/gfs2/<fsname>/glstats
+
+Assuming that debugfs is mounted on /sys/kernel/debug and also
+that <fsname> is replaced with the name of the gfs2 filesystem
+in question.
+
+The abbreviations used in the output as are follows:
+
+srtt     - Smoothed round trip time for non-blocking dlm requests
+srttvar  - Variance estimate for srtt
+srttb    - Smoothed round trip time for (potentially) blocking dlm requests
+srttvarb - Variance estimate for srttb
+sirt     - Smoothed inter-request time (for dlm requests)
+sirtvar  - Variance estimate for sirt
+dlm      - Number of dlm requests made (dcnt in glstats file)
+queue    - Number of glock requests queued (qcnt in glstats file)
+
+The sbstats file contains a set of these stats for each glock type (so 8 lines
+for each type) and for each cpu (one column per cpu). The glstats file contains
+a set of these stats for each glock in a similar format to the glocks file, but
+using the format mean/variance for each of the timing stats.
+
+The gfs2_glock_lock_time tracepoint prints out the current values of the stats
+for the glock in question, along with some addition information on each dlm
+reply that is received:
+

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 23/24] GFS2: Add rgrp information to block_alloc trace point

[Steven Whitehouse]

From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

This is a second attempt at a patch that adds rgrp information to the
block allocation trace point for GFS2. As suggested, the patch was
modified to list the rgrp information _after_ the fields that exist today.

Again, the reason for this patch is to allow us to trace and debug
problems with the block reservations patch, which is still in the works.
We can debug problems with reservations if we can see what block allocations
result from the block reservations. It may also be handy in figuring out
if there are problems in rgrp free space accounting. In other words,
we can use it to track the rgrp and its free space along side the allocations
that are taking place.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 24/24] GFS2: Fix quota adjustment return code

[Steven Whitehouse]

From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

This patch changes function gfs2_adjust_quota so that it properly
returns a good (zero) return code on the normal path through the code.
Without this, mounting GFS2 with -o quota=account periodically gave
this error message: GFS2: fsid=cluster:fs: gfs2_quotad: sync error -5

[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (merge window)

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

As usual, here is the content of the GFS2 tree prior to sending
a merge request. Not a huge number of patches this time, but some
interesting features nonetheless.

A number of the earlier patches are aimed at cleaning up the resource
group code for the later patch which implements block reservations.
In addition to that, there are a few patches aimed at improving
the time taken to dump (the potentially rather large) glock debugfs
file. Beyond that there are a couple of bug fixes and thats about it
this time,

Steve.

Hi,

We've collected up a goodly number of patches in the -nmw tree now
and we can hold off any further changes until the following merge
window, so here is the current tree content.

The major feature this time is the "rbm" conversion in the resource
group code. The new struct gfs2_rbm specifies the location of an
allocatable block in (resource group, bitmap, offset) form. There
are a number of added helper functions, and later patches then
rewrite some of the resource group code in terms of this new
structure. Not only does this give us a nice code clean up, but
it also removes some of the previous restructions where extents
could not cross bitmap boundaries, for example.

In addition to that, there are a few bug fixes and clean ups, but
the rbm work is by far the majority of this patch set in terms of
number of changed lines.

Steve.

Hi,

So yes, this is a bit early, but the tree seems to have settled down
now, and I'd like to hold off any further feature patches until the
subsequent merge window at this stage.

The main feature this time is the new Orlov allocator and the patches
leading up to it which allow us to allocate new inodes from their own
allocation context, rather than borrowing that of their parent directory.
It is this change which then allows us to choose a different location
for subdirectories when required. This works exactly as per the ext3
implementation from the users point of view.

In addition to that, we've got a speed up in gfs2_rbm_from_block()
from Bob Peterson, three locking related improvements from Dave
Teigland plus a selection of smaller bug fixes and clean ups.

Steve.

This is one of the smallest collections of patches for the merge
window for some time. There are some clean ups relating to the
transaction code and the shrinker, which are mostly in preparation
for further development, but also make the code much easier to
follow in these areas.

There is a patch which allows the use of ->writepages even in the
default ordered write mode for all writebacks. This results in
sending larger i/os to the block layer, and a subsequent increase
in performance. It also reduces the number of different i/o paths
by one.

There is also a bug fix reinstating the withdraw ack system which
somehow got lost when the lock modules were merged into GFS2.

And thats all this time around,

Steve.

Hi,

Since the merge window is coming up soon, I'm posting the content of
the GFS2 -nmw tree as usual. There is not a whole lot of change this
time - there are some further changes which are in the works, but those
will be held over until next time.

Here there are some clean ups to inode creation, the addition of an
origin (local or remote) indicator to glock demote requests, removal
of one of the remaining GFP_NOFAIL allocations during log flushes,
one minor clean up, and a one liner bug fix,

Steve.

Hi,

There are a few bug fixes for various, mostly very minor corner
cases, plus some interesting new features. The new features
include atomic_open whose main benefit will be the reduction in
locking overhead in case of combined lookup/create and open operations,
sorting the log buffer lists by block number to improve the efficiency
of AIL writeback, and agressively issuing revokes in gfs2_log_flush
to reduce overhead when dropping glocks,

Steve.

Hi,

This is the smallest merge window patch set for GFS2 for quite
some time. Only one of the patches (moving gfs2_sync_meta) is
a non-bug fix patch, although the merge ordered and writeback
writepage patch is also a nice clean up.

A couple of the patches are quite recently added, due to my only
having recently returned from holiday, so I'll give them a couple
of extra days in -next before sending the pull request.

Steve.

Hi,

I'm just back from firstly Edinburgh, and secondly holiday, and the
merge window is again upon us. I've added in the three pending patches
which were under test while I was away and then that should be it for
this time.

The main feature of interest this time is quota updates. There are
some clean ups and some patches to use the new generic lru list
code. There is still plenty of scope for some further changes in
due course - faster lookups of quota structures is very much
on the todo list. Also, a start has been made towards the more tricky
issue of using the generic lru code with glocks, but that will
have to be completed in a subsequent merge window.

The other, more minor feature, is that there have been a number of
performance patches which relate to block allocation. In particular
they will improve performance when the disk is nearly full,

Steve.

Hi,

Here are the pending patches for the merge window which are currently
in the GFS2 tree.

The main topics this time are allocation, in the form of Bob's
improvements when searching resource groups and several updates
to quotas which should increase scalability. The quota changes
follow on from those in the last merge window, and there will
likely be further work to come in this area in due course.

There are also a few patches which help to improve efficiency
of adding entries into directories, and clean up some of that
code.

One on-disk change is included this time, which is to write some
additional information which should be useful to fsck and
also potentially for debugging.

Other than that, its just a few small random bug fixes and
clean ups,

Steve.

[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (merge window)

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

Here is the current content of the GFS2 -nmw tree for the
current merge window.

One of the main highlights this time, is not the patches themselves
but instead the widening contributor base. It is good to see that
interest is increasing in GFS2, and I'd like to thank all the
contributors to this patch set.

In addition to the usual set of bug fixes and clean ups, there are
patches to improve inode creation performance when xattrs are required
and some improvements to the transaction code which is intended to help
improve scalability after further changes in due course. Journal extent
mapping is also updated to make it more efficient and again, this is a
foundation for future work in this area.

The maximum number of ACLs has been increased to 300 (for a 4k block size)
which means that even with a few additional xattrs from selinux,
everything should fit within a single fs block. There is also a patch
to bring GFS2's own copy of the writepages code up to the same level as
the core VFS. Eventually we may be able to merge some of this code, since
it is fairly similar.

The other major change this time, is bringing consistency to the printing
of messages via fs_<level>, pr_<level> macros. 

Steve.

Hi,

This must be about the smallest merge window patch set ever for GFS2.
It is probably also the first one without a single patch from me. That
is down to a combination of factors, and I have some things in the works
that are not quite ready yet, that I hope to put in next time around.

Returning to what is here this time... we have 3 patches which fix
various warnings. Two are bug fixes (for quotas and also a
rare recovery race condition). The final patch, from Ben Marzinski,
is an important change in the freeze code which has been in
progress for some time. This removes the need to take and drop the
transaction lock for every single transaction, when the only time it
was used, was at file system freeze time. Ben's patch integrates the
freeze operation into the journal flush code as an alternative with
lower overheads and also lands up resolving some difficult to fix races
at the same time,

Steve.

Hi,

Not a huge amount this time... just four patches. This time we have a couple
of bug fixes, one relating to bad i_goal values which are now ignored (i_goal
is basically a hint so it is safe to so this) and another relating to the
saving of the dirent location during rename. There is one performance
improvement, which is an optimisation in rgblk_free so that multiple block
deallocations will now be more efficient, and one clean up patch to use
_RET_IP_ rather than writing it out longhand,

Steve.

Hi,

In contrast to recent merge windows, there are a number of interesting features
this time. There is a set of patches to improve performance in relation to
block reservations. Some correctness fixes for fallocate, and an update
to the freeze/thaw code which greatly simplyfies this code path. In
addition there is a set of clean ups from Al Viro too,

Steve.
