[PATCH v4 0/2] ext4, jbd2: journal cycled record transactions between each mount

[PATCH v4 0/2] ext4, jbd2: journal cycled record transactions between each mount

[Zhang Yi]

From: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@huawei.com>

v3->v4:
 - Remove journal_cycle_record mount option, always enable it on ext4.
v2->v3:
 - Prevent warning if mount old image with journal_cycle_record enabled.
 - Limit this mount option into ext4 iamge only.
v1->v2:
 - Fix the format type warning.
 - Add more check of journal_cycle_record mount options in remount.

Hello!

This patch set is the fourth edition of the journal_cycle_record mount
option. It save journal head for a clean unmounted file system in the
journal super block, which could let us record journal transactions
between each mount continuously. It could help us to do journal
backtrack and find root cause from a corrupted filesystem. Current
filesystem's corruption analysis is difficult and less useful
information, especially on the real products. It is useful to some
extent, especially for the cases of doing fuzzy tests and deploy in
some shout-runing products.

I will send out the corresponding e2fsprogs part v2 separately, all of
these have done below test cases and also passed xfstests in auto mode.
 - Mount a filesystem with empty journal.
 - Mount a filesystem with journal ended in an unrecovered complete
   transaction.
 - Mount a filesystem with journal ended in an incomplete transaction.
 - Mount a corrupted filesystem with out of bound journal s_head.
 - Mount old filesystem without journal s_head set.

Any comments are welcome.

Thanks!
Yi.

[PATCH v4 1/2] jbd2: continue to record log between each mount

[Zhang Yi]

From: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@huawei.com>

For a newly mounted file system, the journal committing thread always
record new transactions from the start of the journal area, no matter
whether the journal was clean or just has been recovered. So the logdump
code in debugfs cannot dump continuous logs between each mount, it is
disadvantageous to analysis corrupted file system image and locate the
file system inconsistency bugs.

If we get a corrupted file system in the running products and want to
find out what has happened, besides lookup the system log, one effective
way is to backtrack the journal log. But we may not always run e2fsck
before each mount and the default fsck -a mode also cannot always
checkout all inconsistencies, so it could left over some inconsistencies
into the next mount until we detect it. Finally, transactions in the
journal may probably discontinuous and some relatively new transactions
has been covered, it becomes hard to analyse. If we could record
transactions continuously between each mount, we could acquire more
useful info from the journal. Like this:

 |Previous mount checkpointed/recovered logs|Current mount logs         |
 |{------}{---}{--------} ... {------}| ... |{======}{========}...000000|

And yes the journal area is limited and cannot record everything, the
problematic transaction may also be covered even if we do this, but
this is still useful for fuzzy tests and short-running products.

This patch save the head blocknr in the superblock after flushing the
journal or unmounting the file system, let the next mount could continue
to record new transaction behind it. This change is backward compatible
because the old kernel does not care about the head blocknr of the
journal. It is also fine if we mount a clean old image without valid
head blocknr, we fail back to set it to s_first just like before.
Finally, for the case of mount an unclean file system, we could also get
the journal head easily after scanning/replaying the journal, it will
continue to record new transaction after the recovered transactions.

[PATCH v4 2/2] ext4: add journal cycled recording support

[Zhang Yi]

From: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@huawei.com>

Always enable 'JBD2_CYCLE_RECORD' journal option on ext4, letting the
jbd2 continue to record new journal transactions from the recovered
journal head or the checkpointed transactions in the previous mount.

Do we need update document/filesystems/ext4/journal.rst ?
