[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 0/6 v2] ocfs2: Avoid pending orphaned inodes

[Jan Kara]

  Hello,

  here is a second version of my patchset to solve a deadlocks when we do not
defer dropping of inode reference from downconvert worker. I have tested the
patches (also with lockdep enabled) and they seem to work fine. Comments are
welcome!

[Jan Kara]

The flag was never set, delete it.

[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 2/6] ocfs2: Move dquot_initialize() in ocfs2_delete_inode() somewhat later

[Jan Kara]

Move dquot_initalize() call in ocfs2_delete_inode() after the moment we
verify inode is actually a sane one to delete. We certainly don't want
to initialize quota for system inodes etc. This also avoids calling into
quota code from downconvert thread.

Add more details into the comment why bailing out from
ocfs2_delete_inode() when we are in downconvert thread is OK.

[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 3/6] quota: Provide function to grab quota structure reference

[Jan Kara]

Provide dqgrab() function to get quota structure reference when we are
sure it already has at least one active reference. Make use of this
function inside quota code.

[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 4/6] ocfs2: Implement delayed dropping of last dquot reference

[Jan Kara]

We cannot drop last dquot reference from downconvert thread as that
creates the following deadlock:

NODE 1                                  NODE2
holds dentry lock for 'foo'
holds inode lock for GLOBAL_BITMAP_SYSTEM_INODE
                                        dquot_initialize(bar)
                                          ocfs2_dquot_acquire()
                                            ocfs2_inode_lock(USER_QUOTA_SYSTEM_INODE)
                                            ...
downconvert thread (triggered from another
node or a different process from NODE2)
  ocfs2_dentry_post_unlock()
    ...
    iput(foo)
      ocfs2_evict_inode(foo)
        ocfs2_clear_inode(foo)
          dquot_drop(inode)
            ...
	    ocfs2_dquot_release()
              ocfs2_inode_lock(USER_QUOTA_SYSTEM_INODE)
               - blocks
                                            finds we need more space in
                                            quota file
                                            ...
                                            ocfs2_extend_no_holes()
                                              ocfs2_inode_lock(GLOBAL_BITMAP_SYSTEM_INODE)
                                                - deadlocks waiting for
                                                  downconvert thread

We solve the problem by postponing dropping of the last dquot reference
to a workqueue if it happens from the downconvert thread.

[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 5/6] ocfs2: Avoid blocking in ocfs2_mark_lockres_freeing() in downconvert thread

[Jan Kara]

If we are dropping last inode reference from downconvert thread, we will
end up calling ocfs2_mark_lockres_freeing() which can block if the lock
we are freeing is queued thus creating an A-A deadlock. Luckily, since
we are the downconvert thread, we can immediately dequeue the lock and
thus avoid waiting in this case.

[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 5/6] ocfs2: Avoid blocking in ocfs2_mark_lockres_freeing() in downconvert thread

[Srinivas Eeda]

I like the idea of dc_task handling queued basts in 
ocfs2_mark_lockres_freeing.

I am wondering if we should call lockres->l_ops->post_unlock(osb, 
lockres) ? Would there be another node waiting for a bast response ?

  Ah, right. Somehow I missed that. I'll send fixed version in a moment.

  Actually it doesn't matter in practice because the locks for which we can
hit this path don't have ->post_unlock() method. But still I agree we
should be consistent.

[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 6/6] ocfs2: Revert iput deferring code in ocfs2_drop_dentry_lock

[Jan Kara]

From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@suse.de>

The following patches are reverted in this patch because these
patches caused performance regression in the remote unlink() calls.

ea455f8ab68338ba69f5d3362b342c115bea8e13 - ocfs2: Push out dropping
of dentry lock to ocfs2_wq
f7b1aa69be138ad9d7d3f31fa56f4c9407f56b6a - ocfs2: Fix deadlock on umount
5fd131893793567c361ae64cbeb28a2a753bbe35 - ocfs2: Don't oops in
ocfs2_kill_sb on a failed mount

Previous patches in this series removed the possible deadlocks from
downconvert thread so the above patches shouldn't be needed anymore.

The regression is caused because these patches delay the iput() in case
of dentry unlocks. This also delays the unlocking of the open lockres.
The open lockresource is required to test if the inode can be wiped from
disk or not. When the deleting node does not get the open lock, it marks
it as orphan (even though it is not in use by another node/process)
and causes a journal checkpoint. This delays operations following the
inode eviction. This also moves the inode to the orphaned inode
which further causes more I/O and a lot of unneccessary orphans.

The following script can be used to generate the load causing issues:
declare -a create
declare -a remove
declare -a iterations=(1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024 2048 4096 8192 16384)
unique="`mktemp -u XXXXX`"
script="/tmp/idontknow-${unique}.sh"
cat <<EOF > "${script}"
for n in {1..8}; do mkdir -p test/dir\${n}
  eval touch test/dir\${n}/foo{1.."\$1"}
done
EOF
chmod 700 "${script}"

function fcreate ()
{
  exec 2>&1 /usr/bin/time --format=%E "${script}" "$1"
}

function fremove ()
{
  exec 2>&1 /usr/bin/time --format=%E ssh node2 "cd `pwd`; rm -Rf test*"
}

function fcp ()
{
  exec 2>&1 /usr/bin/time --format=%E ssh node3 "cd `pwd`; cp -R test test.new"
}

echo -------------------------------------------------
echo "| # files | create #s | copy #s | remove #s |"

for ((x=0; x < ${#iterations[*]} ; x++)) do
  create[$x]="`fcreate ${iterations[$x]}`"

  printf "| %8d | %9s | %9s | %9s |\n" ${iterations[$x]} ${create[$x]} ${copy[$x]} ${remove[$x]}
done
rm "${script}"
