If you run xfstest 224 it you will get lots of messages about not being able to
delete inodes and that they will be cleaned up next mount. This is because
btrfs_block_rsv_check was not calling reserve_metadata_bytes with the ability to
flush, so if there was not enough space, it simply failed. But in truncate and
evict case we could easily flush space to try and get enough space to do our
work, so make btrfs_block_rsv_check take a flush argument to pass down to
reserve_metadata_bytes. Now xfstests 224 runs fine without all those
complaints. Thanks,

We have not been reserving enough space for checksums. We were just reserving
bytes for the checksum items themselves, we were not taking into account having
to cow the tree and such. This patch adds a csum_bytes counter to the inode for
keeping track of the number of bytes outstanding we have for checksums. Then we
calculate how many leaves would be required for the checksums we are given and
use that to reserve space. This adds a significant amount of bytes to our
reservations, but we will handle this later. Thanks,
Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>
We have been using bytes_reserved for metadata reservations, which is wrong
since we use that to keep track of outstanding reservations from the allocator.
This resulted in us doing a lot of silly things to make sure we don't allocate a
bunch of metadata chunks since we never had a real view of how much space was
actually in use by metadata.
This passes Arne's enospc test and xfstests as well as my own enospc tests.
Hopefully this will get us moving in the right direction. Thanks,

This fixes a regression introduced by commit cdcb725c05 ("Btrfs: check
if there is enough space for balancing smarter"). We can't do 64-bit
divides on 32-bit architectures.
In cases where we need to divide/multiply by 2 we should just left/right

do_div. Also make the counters u64 to match up with rw_devices.

We have a problem where if a user specifies discard but doesn't actually support

because this gets called (in a fashion) from the tree log recovery code, which
has a nice little BUG_ON(ret) after it, which causes us to fail the tree log
replay. So instead detect wether our devices support discard when we're adding
them and then don't issue discards if we know that the device doesn't support
it. And just for good measure set ret = 0 in btrfs_issue_discard just in case

This patch was originally from Tejun Heo. lockdep complains about the btrfs
locking because we sometimes take btree locks from two different trees at the
same time. The current classes are based only on level in the btree, which
isn't enough information for lockdep to figure out if the lock is safe.
This patch makes a class for each type of tree, and lumps all the FS trees that
actually have files and directories into the same class.

The btrfs metadata btree is the source of significant
lock contention, especially in the root node. This
commit changes our locking to use a reader/writer
lock.
The lock is built on top of rw spinlocks, and it
extends the lock tracking to remember if we have a
read lock or a write lock when we go to blocking. Atomics
count the number of blocking readers or writers at any
given time.
It removes all of the adaptive spinning from the old code
and uses only the spinning/blocking hints inside of btrfs
to decide when it should continue spinning.
In read heavy workloads this is dramatically faster. In write
heavy workloads we're still faster because of less contention
on the root node lock.
We suffer slightly in dbench because we schedule more often
during write locks, but all other benchmarks so far are improved.

don't actually reserve anything because

atomic_cmpxchg(reserved, 1, 0)
atomic_inc(outstanding)
atomic_add(0, reserved)

Because we've already joined the transaction we cannot commit the transaction

do the reservation the normal way before we join the transaction, that way we

I was testing with empty_cluster = 0 to try and reproduce a problem and kept
hitting early enospc panics. This was because our loop logic was a little
confused. So this is what I did
1) Make the loop variable the ultimate decider on wether we should loop again
isntead of checking to see if we had an uncached bg, empty size or empty
cluster.
2) Increment loop before checking to see what we are on to make the loop
definitions make more sense.
3) If we are on the chunk alloc loop don't set empty_size/empty_cluster to 0
unless we didn't actually allocate a chunk. If we did allocate a chunk we
should be able to easily setup a new cluster so clearing
empty_size/empty_cluster makes us less efficient.
This kept me from hitting panics while trying to reproduce the other problem.

$ mkfs.btrfs --mixed 2G.img
$ mount -oloop 2G.img /mnt/ut/

$ seq 1 256 | while read file_no; do echo $file_no; time cp 10M.file ${file_no}.copy; done
Up to '200.copy' it goes fast, but when disk fills-up each -ENOSPC
message takes 3 seconds to pop-up _every_ ENOSPC (and in usermode linux
it's even more: 30-60 seconds!). (Maybe, time depends on kernel's timer resolution).

The ceph guys keep running into problems where we have space reserved in our
orphan block rsv when freeing it up. This is because they tend to do snapshots
alot, so their truncates tend to use a bunch of space, so when we go to do
things like update the inode we have to steal reservation space in order to make
the reservation happen. This happens because truncate can use as much space as
it freaking feels like, but we still have to hold space for removing the orphan
item and updating the inode, which will definitely always happen. So in order
to fix this we need to split all of the reservation stuf up. So with this patch
we have
1) The orphan block reserve which only holds the space for deleting our orphan
item when everything is over.
2) The truncate block reserve which gets allocated and used specifically for the
space that the truncate will use on a per truncate basis.
3) The transaction will always have 1 item's worth of data reserved so we can
update the inode normally.
Hopefully this will make the ceph problem go away. Thanks,

We use trans_mutex for lots of things, here's a basic list
1) To serialize trans_handles joining the currently running transaction
2) To make sure that no new trans handles are started while we are committing
3) To protect the dead_roots list and the transaction lists
Really the serializing trans_handles joining is not too hard, and can really get
bogged down in acquiring a reference to the transaction. So replace the
trans_mutex with a trans_lock spinlock and use it to do the following
1) Protect fs_info->running_transaction. All trans handles have to do is check
this, and then take a reference of the transaction and keep on going.
2) Protect the fs_info->trans_list. This doesn't get used too much, basically
it just holds the current transactions, which will usually just be the currently
committing transaction and the currently running transaction at most.
3) Protect the dead roots list. This is only ever processed by splicing the
list so this is relatively simple.
4) Protect the fs_info->reloc_ctl stuff. This is very lightweight and was using
the trans_mutex before, so this is a pretty straightforward change.
5) Protect fs_info->no_trans_join. Because we don't hold the trans_lock over
the entirety of the commit we need to have a way to block new people from
creating a new transaction while we're doing our work. So we set no_trans_join
and in join_transaction we test to see if that is set, and if it is we do a
wait_on_commit.
6) Make the transaction use count atomic so we don't need to take locks to
modify it when we're dropping references.
7) Add a commit_lock to the transaction to make sure multiple people trying to
commit the same transaction don't race and commit at the same time.
8) Make open_ioctl_trans an atomic so we don't have to take any locks for ioctl
trans.
I have tested this with xfstests, but obviously it is a pretty hairy change so
lots of testing is greatly appreciated. Thanks,

- Fix the bug of the cpu recursion spinlock, reported by Chris Mason
Changelog V1 -> V2:
- break up the global rb-tree, use a list to manage the delayed nodes,
which is created for every directory and file, and used to manage the
delayed directory name index items and the delayed inode item.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed nodes.
Compare with Ext3/4, the performance of file creation and deletion on btrfs
is very poor. the reason is that btrfs must do a lot of b+ tree insertions,
such as inode item, directory name item, directory name index and so on.
If we can do some delayed b+ tree insertion or deletion, we can improve the
performance, so we made this patch which implemented delayed directory name
index insertion/deletion and delayed inode update.
Implementation:
- introduce a delayed root object into the filesystem, that use two lists to
manage the delayed nodes which are created for every file/directory.
One is used to manage all the delayed nodes that have delayed items. And the
other is used to manage the delayed nodes which is waiting to be dealt with
by the work thread.
- Every delayed node has two rb-tree, one is used to manage the directory name
index which is going to be inserted into b+ tree, and the other is used to
manage the directory name index which is going to be deleted from b+ tree.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed operation. This worker is used
to deal with the works of the delayed directory name index items insertion
and deletion and the delayed inode update.
When the delayed items is beyond the lower limit, we create works for some
delayed nodes and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then
go back.
When the delayed items is beyond the upper bound, we create works for all
the delayed nodes that haven't been dealt with, and insert them into the work
queue of the worker, and then wait for that the untreated items is below some
threshold value.
- When we want to insert a directory name index into b+ tree, we just add the
information into the delayed inserting rb-tree.
And then we check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items
balance. (The balance policy is above.)
- When we want to delete a directory name index from the b+ tree, we search it
in the inserting rb-tree at first. If we look it up, just drop it. If not,
add the key of it into the delayed deleting rb-tree.
Similar to the delayed inserting rb-tree, we also check the number of the
delayed items and do delayed items balance.
(The same to inserting manipulation)
- When we want to update the metadata of some inode, we cached the data of the
inode into the delayed node. the worker will flush it into the b+ tree after
dealing with the delayed insertion and deletion.
- We will move the delayed node to the tail of the list after we access the
delayed node, By this way, we can cache more delayed items and merge more
inode updates.
- If we want to commit transaction, we will deal with all the delayed node.
- the delayed node will be freed when we free the btrfs inode.
- Before we log the inode items, we commit all the directory name index items
and the delayed inode update.
I did a quick test by the benchmark tool[1] and found we can improve the
performance of file creation by ~15%, and file deletion by ~20%.

When a btrfs disk is created by mixed data & metadata option, it will have no
pure data or pure metadata space info.
In btrfs's for-linus branch, commit 78b1ea13838039cd88afdd62519b40b344d6c920
(Btrfs: fix OOPS of empty filesystem after balance) initializes space infos at
the very beginning. The problem is this initialization does not take the mixed
case into account, which will cause btrfs will easily get into ENOSPC in mixed
case.
