2012-05-06Btrfs: avoid sleeping in verify_parent_transid while atomicChris Mason
verify_parent_transid needs to lock the extent range to make sure no IO is underway, and so it can safely clear the uptodate bits if our checks fail. But, a few callers are using it with spinlocks held. Most of the time, the generation numbers are going to match, and we don't want to switch to a blocking lock just for the error case. This adds an atomic flag to verify_parent_transid, and changes it to return EAGAIN if it needs to block to properly verifiy things. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2012-05-04Btrfs: fix page leak when allocing extent buffersJosef Bacik
If we happen to alloc a extent buffer and then alloc a page and notice that page is already attached to an extent buffer, we will only unlock it and free our existing eb. Any pages currently attached to that eb will be properly freed, but we don't do the page_cache_release() on the page where we noticed the other extent buffer which can cause us to leak pages and I hope cause the weird issues we've been seeing in this area.

2012-04-27Btrfs: reduce lock contention during extent insertionChris Mason
We're spending huge amounts of time on lock contention during end_io processing because we unconditionally assume we are overwriting an existing extent in the file for each IO. This checks to see if we are outside i_size, and if so, it uses a less expensive readonly search of the btree to look for existing extents. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2012-04-27Btrfs: avoid deadlocks from GFP_KERNEL allocations during btrfs_real_readdirChris Mason
Btrfs has an optimization where it will preallocate dentries during readdir to fill in enough information to open the inode without an extra lookup. But, we're calling d_alloc, which is doing GFP_KERNEL allocations, and that leads to deadlocks because our readdir code has tree locks held. For now, disable this optimization. We'll fix the gfp mask in the next merge window. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2012-04-27Btrfs: do not start delalloc inodes during syncJosef Bacik
btrfs_start_delalloc_inodes will just walk the list of delalloc inodes and start writing them out, but it doesn't splice the list or anything so as long as somebody is doing work on the box you could end up in this section _forever_. So just remove it, it's not needed anyway since sync will start writeback on all inodes anyway, all we need to do is wait for ordered extents and then we can commit the transaction. In my horrible torture test sync goes from taking 4 minutes to about 1.5 minutes. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2012-04-18Btrfs: fix that check_int_data mount option was ignoredStefan Behrens
The bitfield member mount_opt was too small by one bit to hold the mount option that enabled to include data extents in the integrity checker.

2012-04-18btrfs: don't return EINTRArne Jansen
It is basically a good thing if we are interruptible when waiting for free space, but the generality in which it is implemented currently leads to system calls being interruptible that are not documented this way. For example git can't handle interrupted unlink(), leading to corrupt repos under space pressure. Instead we raise the bar to only be interruptible by SIGKILL.

2012-04-18Btrfs: always store the mirror we read the eb fromJosef Bacik
A user reported a panic where we were trying to fix a bad mirror but the mirror number we were giving was 0, which is invalid. This is because we don't do the transid verification until after the read, so as far as the read code is concerned the read was a success. So instead store the mirror we read from so that if there is some failure post read we know which mirror to try next and which mirror needs to be fixed if we find a good copy of the block.

2012-04-18Btrfs: Make free_ipath() deal gracefully with NULL pointersJesper Juhl
Make free_ipath() behave like most other freeing functions in the kernel and gracefully do nothing when passed a NULL pointer. Besides this making the bahaviour consistent with functions such as kfree(), vfree(), btrfs_free_path() etc etc, it also fixes a real NULL deref issue in fs/btrfs/ioctl.c::btrfs_ioctl_ino_to_path(). In that function we have this code: ... ipath = init_ipath(size, root, path); if (IS_ERR(ipath)) { ret = PTR_ERR(ipath); ipath = NULL; goto out; } ... out: btrfs_free_path(path); free_ipath(ipath); ... If we ever take the true branch of that 'if' statement we'll end up passing a NULL pointer to free_ipath() which will subsequently dereference it and we'll go "Boom" :-( This patch will avoid that.

It turns out that we don't load the free space cache if we're in a commit for deadlock reasons, but since we're reading the cache and it hasn't changed yet we are safe reading the inode and free space item from the commit root, so do that and remove all of the deadlock checks so we don't unnecessarily skip loading the free space cache.

These are already shipping in the sles kernel, and they give btrfs the ability to abort transactions and go readonly on errors. It involves a lot of churn as they clarify BUG_ONs, and remove the ones we now properly deal with. Josef reworked the way our metadata interacts with the page cache. page->private now points to the btrfs extent_buffer object, which makes everything faster. He changed it so we write an whole extent buffer at a time instead of allowing individual pages to go down,, which will be important for the raid5/6 code (for the 3.5 merge window ;) Josef also made us more aggressive about dropping pages for metadata blocks that were freed due to COW. Overall, our metadata caching is much faster now. We've integrated my patch for metadata bigger than the page size. This allows metadata blocks up to 64KB in size. In practice 16K and 32K seem to work best. For workloads with lots of metadata, this cuts down the size of the extent allocation tree dramatically and fragments much less. Scrub was updated to support the larger block sizes, which ended up being a fairly large change (thanks Stefan Behrens). We also have an assortment of fixes and updates, especially to the balancing code (Ilya Dryomov), the back ref walker (Jan Schmidt) and the defragging code (Liu Bo)."
