55a7bc5a30 xfs: do not discard alloc btree blocks
Blocks for the allocation btree are allocated from and released to
the AGFL, and thus frequently reused.  Even worse we do not have an
easy way to avoid using an AGFL block when it is discarded due to
the simple FILO list of free blocks, and thus can frequently stall
on blocks that are currently undergoing a discard.

Add a flag to the busy extent tracking structure to skip the discard
for allocation btree blocks.  In normal operation these blocks are
reused frequently enough that there is no need to discard them
anyway, but if they spill over to the allocation btree as part of a
balance we "leak" blocks that we would otherwise discard.  We could
fix this by adding another flag and keeping these block in the
rbtree even after they aren't busy any more so that we could discard
them when they migrate out of the AGFL.  Given that this would cause
significant overhead I don't think it's worthwile for now.

97d3ac75e5 xfs: exact busy extent tracking
Update the extent tree in case we have to reuse a busy extent, so that it
always is kept uptodate.  This is done by replacing the busy list searches
with a new xfs_alloc_busy_reuse helper, which updates the busy extent tree
in case of a reuse.  This allows us to allow reusing metadata extents
unconditionally, and thus avoid log forces especially for allocation btree
blocks.

a870acd9b2 xfs: optimize AGFL refills
While we need to make sure we do not reuse busy extents, there is no need
to force out busy extents when moving them between the AGFL and the
freespace btree as we still take care of that when doing the real allocation.

To avoid the log force when just moving extents from the different free
space tracking structures, move the busy search out of
xfs_alloc_get_freelist into the callers that need it, and move the busy
list insert from xfs_free_ag_extent which is used both by AGFL refills
and real allocation to xfs_free_extent, which is only used by the latter.

c0e59e1ac0 xfs: remove the ->kill_root btree operation
The implementation os ->kill_root only differ by either simply
zeroing out the now unused buffer in the btree cursor in the inode
allocation btree or using xfs_btree_setbuf in the allocation btree.

Initially both of them used xfs_btree_setbuf, but the use in the
ialloc btree was removed early on because it interacted badly with
xfs_trans_binval.

In addition to zeroing out the buffer in the cursor xfs_btree_setbuf
updates the bc_ra array in the btree cursor, and calls
xfs_trans_brelse on the buffer previous occupying the slot.

The bc_ra update should be done for the alloc btree updated too,
although the lack of it does not cause serious problems.  The
xfs_trans_brelse call on the other hand is effectively a no-op in
the end - it keeps decrementing the bli_recur refcount until it hits
zero, and then just skips out because the buffer will always be
dirty at this point.  So removing it for the allocation btree is
just fine.

So unify the code and move it to xfs_btree.c.  While we're at it
also replace the call to xfs_btree_setbuf with a NULL bp argument in
xfs_btree_del_cursor with a direct call to xfs_trans_brelse given
that the cursor is beeing freed just after this and the state
updates are superflous.  After this xfs_btree_setbuf is only used
with a non-NULL bp argument and can thus be simplified.

288699feca xfs: drop dmapi hooks
Dmapi support was never merged upstream, but we still have a lot of hooks
bloating XFS for it, all over the fast pathes of the filesystem.

This patch drops over 700 lines of dmapi overhead.  If we'll ever get HSM
support in mainline at least the namespace events can be done much saner
in the VFS instead of the individual filesystem, so it's not like this
is much help for future work.

ed3b4d6cdc xfs: Improve scalability of busy extent tracking
When we free a metadata extent, we record it in the per-AG busy
extent array so that it is not re-used before the freeing
transaction hits the disk. This array is fixed size, so when it
overflows we make further allocation transactions synchronous
because we cannot track more freed extents until those transactions
hit the disk and are completed. Under heavy mixed allocation and
freeing workloads with large log buffers, we can overflow this array
quite easily.

Further, the array is sparsely populated, which means that inserts
need to search for a free slot, and array searches often have to
search many more slots that are actually used to check all the
busy extents. Quite inefficient, really.

To enable this aspect of extent freeing to scale better, we need
a structure that can grow dynamically. While in other areas of
XFS we have used radix trees, the extents being freed are at random
locations on disk so are better suited to being indexed by an rbtree.

So, use a per-AG rbtree indexed by block number to track busy
extents.  This incures a memory allocation when marking an extent
busy, but should not occur too often in low memory situations. This
should scale to an arbitrary number of extents so should not be a
limitation for features such as in-memory aggregation of
transactions.

However, there are still situations where we can't avoid allocating
busy extents (such as allocation from the AGFL). To minimise the
overhead of such occurences, we need to avoid doing a synchronous
log force while holding the AGF locked to ensure that the previous
transactions are safely on disk before we use the extent. We can do
this by marking the transaction doing the allocation as synchronous
rather issuing a log force.

Because of the locking involved and the ordering of transactions,
the synchronous transaction provides the same guarantees as a
synchronous log force because it ensures that all the prior
transactions are already on disk when the synchronous transaction
hits the disk. i.e. it preserves the free->allocate order of the
extent correctly in recovery.

By doing this, we avoid holding the AGF locked while log writes are
in progress, hence reducing the length of time the lock is held and
therefore we increase the rate at which we can allocate and free
from the allocation group, thereby increasing overall throughput.

The only problem with this approach is that when a metadata buffer is
marked stale (e.g. a directory block is removed), then buffer remains
pinned and locked until the log goes to disk. The issue here is that
if that stale buffer is reallocated in a subsequent transaction, the
attempt to lock that buffer in the transaction will hang waiting
the log to go to disk to unlock and unpin the buffer. Hence if
someone tries to lock a pinned, stale, locked buffer we need to
push on the log to get it unlocked ASAP. Effectively we are trading
off a guaranteed log force for a much less common trigger for log
force to occur.

Ideally we should not reallocate busy extents. That is a much more
complex fix to the problem as it involves direct intervention in the
allocation btree searches in many places. This is left to a future
set of modifications.

Finally, now that we track busy extents in allocated memory, we
don't need the descriptors in the transaction structure to point to
them. We can replace the complex busy chunk infrastructure with a
simple linked list of busy extents. This allows us to remove a large
chunk of code, making the overall change a net reduction in code
size.

a862e0fdcb xfs: Don't directly reference m_perag in allocation code
Start abstracting the perag references so that the indexing of the
structures is not directly coded into all the places that uses the
perag structures. This will allow us to separate the use of the
perag structure and the way it is indexed and hence avoid the known
deadlocks related to growing a busy filesystem.

0b1b213fcf xfs: event tracing support
Convert the old xfs tracing support that could only be used with the
out of tree kdb and xfsidbg patches to use the generic event tracer.

To use it make sure CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is enabled and then enable
all xfs trace channels by:

   echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/enable

or alternatively enable single events by just doing the same in one
event subdirectory, e.g.

   echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/xfs_ihold/enable

or set more complex filters, etc. In Documentation/trace/events.txt
all this is desctribed in more detail.  To reads the events do a

   cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to
the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new
tracing facility also employ.  This allows a very fine-grained control
of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the
perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter,
     allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various
     spots in XFS.  Take a look at

    http://lwn.net/Articles/346470/

for some examples.

Also the btree tracing isn't included at all yet, as it will require
additional core tracing features not in mainline yet, I plan to
deliver it later.

And the really nice thing about this patch is that it actually removes
many lines of code while adding this nice functionality:

Always use the generic xfs_btree_block type instead of the short / long

the length of a short / long form block. The rationale for this is that we
will grow more btree block header variants to support CRCs and other RAS
information, and always accessing them through the same datatype with
unions for the short / long form pointers makes implementing this much
easier.

kill various macros dealing with them and inline the logic into the
get_minrecs / get_maxrecs / get_dmaxrecs methods in xfs_bmap_btree.c.

Note that all these new helpers take an xfs_mount * argument which will be
needed to determine the size of a btree block once we add support for
extended btree blocks with CRCs and other RAS information.

687b890a18 [XFS] implement generic xfs_btree_lshift
Make the btree left shift code generic. Based on a patch from David
Chinner with lots of changes to follow the original btree implementations
more closely. While this loses some of the generic helper routines for
inserting/moving/removing records it also solves some of the one off bugs
in the original code and makes it easier to verify.

278d0ca14e [XFS] implement generic xfs_btree_update
From: Dave Chinner <dgc@sgi.com>

The most complicated part here is the lastrec tracking for the alloc
btree. Most logic is in the update_lastrec method which has to do some
hopefully good enough dirty magic to maintain it.

[hch: split out from bigger patch and a rework of the lastrec

logic]

From: Dave Chinner <dgc@sgi.com>

Note that there are many > 80 char lines introduced due to the
xfs_btree_key casts. But the places where this happens is throw-away code
once the whole btree code gets merged into a common implementation.

The same is true for the temporary xfs_alloc_log_keys define to the new
name. All old users will be gone after a few patches.

From: Dave Chinner <dgc@sgi.com>

Because this is the first major generic btree routine this patch includes
some infrastrucure, first a few routines to deal with a btree block that
can be either in short or long form, second xfs_btree_read_buf_block,
which is the new central routine to read a btree block given a cursor, and
third the new xfs_btree_ptr_addr routine to calculate the address for a
given btree pointer record.

65f1eaeac0 [XFS] add helpers for addressing entities inside a btree block
Add new helpers in xfs_btree.c to find the record, key and block pointer
entries inside a btree block. To implement this genericly the
->get_maxrecs methods and two new xfs_btree_ops entries for the key and
record sizes are used. Also add a big comment describing how the
addressing inside a btree block works.

Note that these helpers are unused until users are introduced in the next
patches and this patch will thus cause some harmless compiler warnings.

561f7d1739 [XFS] split up xfs_btree_init_cursor
xfs_btree_init_cursor contains close to little shared code for the
different btrees and will get even more non-common code in the future.
Split it up into one routine per btree type.

Because xfs_btree_dup_cursor needs to call the init routine for a generic
btree cursor add a new btree operation vector that contains a dup_cursor
method that initializes a new cursor based on an existing one.

The btree operations vector is based on an idea and code from Dave Chinner
and will grow more entries later during this series.

92821e2ba4 [XFS] Lazy Superblock Counters
When we have a couple of hundred transactions on the fly at once, they all
typically modify the on disk superblock in some way.
create/unclink/mkdir/rmdir modify inode counts, allocation/freeing modify
free block counts.

When these counts are modified in a transaction, they must eventually lock
the superblock buffer and apply the mods. The buffer then remains locked
until the transaction is committed into the incore log buffer. The result
of this is that with enough transactions on the fly the incore superblock
buffer becomes a bottleneck.

The result of contention on the incore superblock buffer is that
transaction rates fall - the more pressure that is put on the superblock
buffer, the slower things go.

The key to removing the contention is to not require the superblock fields
in question to be locked. We do that by not marking the superblock dirty
in the transaction. IOWs, we modify the incore superblock but do not
modify the cached superblock buffer. In short, we do not log superblock
modifications to critical fields in the superblock on every transaction.
In fact we only do it just before we write the superblock to disk every
sync period or just before unmount.

This creates an interesting problem - if we don't log or write out the
fields in every transaction, then how do the values get recovered after a
crash? the answer is simple - we keep enough duplicate, logged information
in other structures that we can reconstruct the correct count after log
recovery has been performed.

It is the AGF and AGI structures that contain the duplicate information;
after recovery, we walk every AGI and AGF and sum their individual
counters to get the correct value, and we do a transaction into the log to
correct them. An optimisation of this is that if we have a clean unmount
record, we know the value in the superblock is correct, so we can avoid
the summation walk under normal conditions and so mount/recovery times do
not change under normal operation.

One wrinkle that was discovered during development was that the blocks
used in the freespace btrees are never accounted for in the AGF counters.
This was once a valid optimisation to make; when the filesystem is full,
the free space btrees are empty and consume no space. Hence when it
matters, the "accounting" is correct. But that means the when we do the
AGF summations, we would not have a correct count and xfs_check would
complain. Hence a new counter was added to track the number of blocks used
by the free space btrees. This is an *on-disk format change*.

As a result of this, lazy superblock counters are a mkfs option and at the
moment on linux there is no way to convert an old filesystem. This is
possible - xfs_db can be used to twiddle the right bits and then
xfs_repair will do the format conversion for you. Similarly, you can
convert backwards as well. At some point we'll add functionality to
xfs_admin to do the bit twiddling easily....
