[PATCH 0/9] Log and transaction cleanups, factoring and bug fixes

[Dave Chinner]

The following series is preparation for delayed logging patches. The cleanups
and factoring patches are mainly to make it simple to introduce the delayed
logging patches, especially as these changes really have nothing to do with
delayed logging. The cleanups and factoring patches should be no-ops from a
functionality point of view.

A couple of the patches are fixes for bugs that I've found as I've been working
through delayed logging prototypes.

The final two patches introduce a new log vector structure and factor
xlog_write(). This is probably the most complex of the changes - it should be a
no-op - so needs the most scrutiny. It's also one of the first changes I made -
it's been running through QA for the past month and a half so I think it is
all OK. I certainly found the factored code far easier to work with when it
came to debugging problems...

[PATCH 1/9] xfs: factor log item initialisation

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Each log item type does manual initialisation of the log item.
Delayed logging introduceѕ new fields that need initialisation, so
factor all the open coded initialisation into a common function
first.

Looks good.  While not really an obvious cleanup by itself I see where
it comes in useful later.

[PATCH 2/9] xfs: Add inode pin counts to traces

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

We don't record pin counts in inode events right now, and this makes
it difficult to track down problems related to pinning inodes. Add
the pin count to the inode trace class and add trace events for
pinning and unpinning inodes.

[PATCH 3/9] xfs: remove stale parameter from ->iop_unpin method

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

The staleness of a object being unpinned can be directly derived
from the object itself - there is no need to extract it from the
object then pass it as a parameter into IOP_UNPIN().

Re: [PATCH 3/9] xfs: remove stale parameter from ->iop_unpin method

Not quite as obvious as the description makes it sounds, as
we're removing the XFS_LID_BUF_STALE flag, and the buf item
which was the only place actually checking it is now switched
to the XFS_BLI_STALE flag in the xfs_buf_log_item, but as
these are set and cleared in exactly the same places it's fine
and a great cleanups.

[PATCH 4/9] xfs: fix reservation release commit flag in xfs_bmap_add_attrfork()

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

xfs_bmap_add_attrfork() passes XFS_TRANS_PERM_LOG_RES to xfs_trans_commit()
to indicate that the commit should release the permanent log reservation
as part of the commit. This is wrong - the correct flag is
XFS_TRANS_RELEASE_LOG_RES - and it is only by the chance that both these
flags have the value of 0x4 that the code is doing the right thing.

Fix it by changing to use the correct flag.

[PATCH 5/9] xfs: split out iclog writing from xfs_trans_commit()

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Split the the part of xfs_trans_commit() that deals with writing the
transaction into the iclog into a separate function. This isolates the
physical commit process from the logical commit operation and makes
it easier to insert different transaction commit paths without affecting
the existing algorithm adversely.

Yes, it is I didn't touch that part of the function, even though the
diff moves the whole thing about. Actually, the diff makes the
change look for more complex than it really is because it doesn't
keep it as three separate chunks of code that got moved....

> What about throwing the patch below in once you're rewriting it anyway?

I'll add it to the series and see how it goes.

Cheers,

Dave.

[PATCH 6/9] xfs: update and factor xfs_trans_committed()

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

The function header to xfs-trans_committed has long had this
comment:

 * THIS SHOULD BE REWRITTEN TO USE xfs_trans_next_item()

To prepare for different methods of committing items, convert the
code to use xfs_trans_next_item() and factor the code into smaller,
more digestible chunks.

Looks good,

A few nits left over from the old code that might be worth fixing
while you're at it:

Once you start reoerding the functions, can we also move
xfs_trans_committed above it's user?

If we want to keep the comment it should be moved above the

Once again, that's code I didn't touch but the diff has moved about.
I'll clean up the entire function given what the diff is doing...

[PATCH 7/9] xfs: log ticket reservation underestimates the number of iclogs

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

When allocation a ticket for a transaction, the ticket is initialised with the
worst case log space usage based on the number of bytes the transaction may
consume. Part of this calculation is the number of log headers required for the
iclog space used up by the transaction.

This calculation makes an undocumented assumption that if the transaction uses
the log header space reservation on an iclog, then it consumes either the
entire iclog or it completes. That is - the transaction that is first in an
iclog is the transaction that the log header reservation is accounted to. If
the transaction is larger than the iclog, then it will use the entire iclog
itself. Document this assumption.

Further, the current calculation uses the rule that we can fit iclog_size bytes
of transaction data into an iclog. This is in correct - the amount of space
available in an iclog for transaction data is the size of the iclog minus the
space used for log record headers. This means that the calculation is out by
512 bytes per 32k of log space the transaction can consume. This is rarely an
issue because maximally sized transactions are extremely uncommon, and for 4k
block size filesystems maximal transaction reservations are about 400kb. Hence
the error in this case is less than the size of an iclog, so that makes it even
harder to hit.

However, anyone using larger directory blocks (16k directory blocks push the
maximum transaction size to approx. 900k on a 4k block size filesystem) or
larger block size (e.g. 64k blocks push transactions to the 3-4MB size) could
see the error grow to more than an iclog and at this point the transaction is
guaranteed to get a reservation underrun and shutdown the filesystem.

Fix this by adjusting the calculation to calculate the correct number of iclogs
required and account for them all up front.

[PATCH 8/9] xfs: introduce new internal log vector structure

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

The current log IO vector structure is a flat array and not
extensible. To make it possible to keep separate log IO vectors for
individual log items, we need a method of chaining log IO vectors
together.

Introduce a new log vector type that can be used to wrap the
existing log IO vectors on use that internally to the log. This
means that the existing external interface (xfs_log_write) does not
change and hence no changes to the transaction commit code are
required.

This initial use of the new log vectors does not use the chaining
capability of the new log vector structure - it is not needed to
implement the flat vector array the current transaction commit path
creates.

Given that we don't need it yet I wonder if it would be a better idea
to postponed it to the start of the actual delayed logging series?

patch 9 would be nice to have before, but that might be a bit too much
rebase work.  Anyway, looking into a real review soon.

Yes, it could be. I wanted to get it out separate from the delayed
logging patches so I could concentrate on them separately. I put it
in this series because it's been unchanged for some time now and
doesn't appear to cause any problems at all.

> patch 9 would be nice to have before, but that might be a bit too much

Yeah, that's what I didn't want to do. The code as it stands in
these patches is actually tested with chained log vectors (the next
patch in the series contains all the delayed logging stuff which I
haven't split yet), so I didn't want to propose code for the dev tree
that I wasn't actually testing....

Cheers,

Dave.

I can't see an anonymous union involved anywhere here, and initializing
these normally works just fine (see patch below).

Ah, I killed that union for this patch set - I was using embedded
arrays to cut down on memory allocations for the delayed logging so
there was a:

	union {
		struct xfs_log_iovec	*lv_iovecp;
		struct xfs_log_iovec	lv_iovec[0];
	};

in the structure. I decided that the union wasn't necessary for
these patches (and can be avoided entirely, anyway) but I forgot to
fix up the setup of the structure to remove those comments. I'll
update it as you've suggested.

Cheers,

Dave.

[PATCH 9/9] xfs: factor xlog_write and make use of new log vector structure

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

xlog_write is a mess that takes a lot of effort to understand. It is
a mass of nested loops with 4 space indents to get it to fit in 80 columns
and lots of funky variables that aren't obvious what they mean or do.

Break it down into understandable chunks, format them properly and propagate
the new log vector structure into it to support chaining of log vectors.

This looks good to me, but I have a bit of a hard time to verify it.

As mention before I think this would be much better off as one
patch to split up xlog_write to go in before patch 8, and a separate
one to deal with the xfs_log_vecs, which could in fact be merged into
the existing patch 8, just to be reordered to be last - or even first
of the actual delayed logging series.

I went through the simpler ones, and at least 2 and 4, if not 1-4 is
something I'd like to see in 2.6.34 still.

Yeah, that's a bogus assert. I found it yesterday on test 113 ;)

The issue is that test 113 is the first QA test that is
semi-reliably creating a transaction with more than one chunk of log
item descriptors. The original assert was:

	ASSERT(!xfs_lic_are_all_free(licp));

before it called xfs_trans_chunk_committed() and ran the commit
processing on all the items in the chunk. It then freed the chunk.
This makes sense - there should be items in the chunk being freed.

I made the bogus assumption when cleaning up the code that after
committed processing on all the items that all the items in the
chunk would be marked as freed. However, nothing cleans up the log
item descriptors in the committed item processing, so the items in
the chunk are all still marked as used.

The fix is to either remove the assert or invert the condition....

Cheers,

Dave.

[PATCH 0/9] Log and transaction cleanups, factoring and bug fixes V2

[Dave Chinner]

The following series is preparation for delayed logging patches. The cleanups
and factoring patches are mainly to make it simple to introduce the delayed
logging patches, especially as these changes really have nothing to do with
delayed logging. The cleanups and factoring patches should be no-ops from a
functionality point of view.

A couple of the patches are fixes for bugs that I've found as I've been working
through delayed logging prototypes.

Patches 8 (reservation bug fix) and 9 (new cleanup) of the series still
require review.

Version 2:
- drop log vector changes from the series
- fix bogus assert in xfs_trans_committed() changes
- Added Christoph's _xfs_trans_commit() cleanup patch
- Added further cleanup of the xfs_trans_committed() code as suggested by
  Christoph.


These changes are also available in the git repository at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/xfs.git trans-cleanup

Christoph Hellwig (1):
      xfs: clean up xfs_trans_commit logic even more

[PATCH 4/9] xfs: fix reservation release commit flag in xfs_bmap_add_attrfork()

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

xfs_bmap_add_attrfork() passes XFS_TRANS_PERM_LOG_RES to xfs_trans_commit()
to indicate that the commit should release the permanent log reservation
as part of the commit. This is wrong - the correct flag is
XFS_TRANS_RELEASE_LOG_RES - and it is only by the chance that both these
flags have the value of 0x4 that the code is doing the right thing.

Fix it by changing to use the correct flag.
