One problem that has plagued us is that a user will use up all of his space with
data, remove a bunch of that data, and then try to create a bunch of small files
and run out of space. This happens because all the chunks were allocated for
data since the metadata requirements were so low. But now there's a bunch of
empty data block groups and not enough metadata space to do anything. This
patch solves this problem by automatically deleting empty block groups. If we
notice the used count go down to 0 when deleting or on mount notice that a block
group has a used count of 0 then we will queue it to be deleted.
When the cleaner thread runs we will double check to make sure the block group
is still empty and then we will delete it. This patch has the side effect of no
longer having a bunch of BUG_ON()'s in the chunk delete code, which will be
helpful for both this and relocate. Thanks,

There were several problems about chunk mutex usage:
- Lock chunk mutex when updating metadata. It would cause the nested
deadlock because updating metadata might need allocate new chunks
that need acquire chunk mutex. We remove chunk mutex at this case,
because b-tree lock and other lock mechanism can help us.
- ABBA deadlock occured between device_list_mutex and chunk_mutex.
When we update device status, we must acquire device_list_mutex at the
beginning, and then we might get chunk_mutex during the device status
update because we need allocate new chunks for metadata COW. But at
most place, we acquire chunk_mutex at first and then acquire device list
mutex. We need change the lock order.
- Some place we needn't acquire chunk_mutex. For example we needn't get
chunk_mutex when we free a empty seed fs_devices structure.

One of my tests shows that when we really don't have space to reclaim via
flush_space and also run out of space, this async reclaim work loops on adding
itself into the workqueue and keeps writing something to disk according to
iostat's results, and these writes mainly comes from commit_transaction which
writes super_block. This's unacceptable as it can be bad to disks, especially
memeory storages.
This adds a check to avoid the above situation.

This has been reported and discussed for a long time, and this hang occurs in
both 3.15 and 3.16.
Btrfs now migrates to use kernel workqueue, but it introduces this hang problem.
Btrfs has a kind of work queued as an ordered way, which means that its
ordered_func() must be processed in the way of FIFO, so it usually looks like --
normal_work_helper(arg)
work = container_of(arg, struct btrfs_work, normal_work);
work->func() <---- (we name it work X)
for ordered_work in wq->ordered_list
ordered_work->ordered_func()
ordered_work->ordered_free()
The hang is a rare case, first when we find free space, we get an uncached block
group, then we go to read its free space cache inode for free space information,
so it will
file a readahead request
btrfs_readpages()
for page that is not in page cache
__do_readpage()
submit_extent_page()
btrfs_submit_bio_hook()
btrfs_bio_wq_end_io()
submit_bio()
end_workqueue_bio() <--(ret by the 1st endio)
queue a work(named work Y) for the 2nd
also the real endio()
So the hang occurs when work Y's work_struct and work X's work_struct happens
to share the same address.
A bit more explanation,
A,B,C -- struct btrfs_work
arg -- struct work_struct
kthread:
worker_thread()
pick up a work_struct from @worklist
process_one_work(arg)
worker->current_work = arg; <-- arg is A->normal_work
worker->current_func(arg)
normal_work_helper(arg)
A = container_of(arg, struct btrfs_work, normal_work);
A->func()
A->ordered_func()
A->ordered_free() <-- A gets freed
B->ordered_func()
submit_compressed_extents()
find_free_extent()
load_free_space_inode()
... <-- (the above readhead stack)
end_workqueue_bio()
btrfs_queue_work(work C)
B->ordered_free()
As if work A has a high priority in wq->ordered_list and there are more ordered
works queued after it, such as B->ordered_func(), its memory could have been
freed before normal_work_helper() returns, which means that kernel workqueue
code worker_thread() still has worker->current_work pointer to be work
A->normal_work's, ie. arg's address.
Meanwhile, work C is allocated after work A is freed, work C->normal_work
and work A->normal_work are likely to share the same address(I confirmed this
with ftrace output, so I'm not just guessing, it's rare though).
When another kthread picks up work C->normal_work to process, and finds our
kthread is processing it(see find_worker_executing_work()), it'll think
work C as a collision and skip then, which ends up nobody processing work C.
So the situation is that our kthread is waiting forever on work C.
Besides, there're other cases that can lead to deadlock, but the real problem
is that all btrfs workqueue shares one work->func, -- normal_work_helper,
so this makes each workqueue to have its own helper function, but only a
wraper pf normal_work_helper.
With this patch, I no long hit the above hang.

The original code allocated new chunks by the number of the writable devices
and missing devices to make sure that any RAID levels on a degraded FS continue
to be honored, but it introduced a problem that it stopped us to allocating
new chunks, the steps to reproduce is following:
# mkfs.btrfs -m raid1 -d raid1 -f <dev0> <dev1>
# mkfs.btrfs -f <dev1> //Removing <dev1> from the original fs
# mount -o degraded <dev0> <mnt>
# dd if=/dev/null of=<mnt>/tmpfile bs=1M
It is because we allocate new chunks only on the writable devices, if we take
the number of missing devices into account, and want to allocate new chunks
with higher RAID level, we will fail becaue we don't have enough writable
device. Fix it by ignoring the number of missing devices when allocating
new chunks.

During its tree walk, btrfs_drop_snapshot() will skip any shared
subtrees it encounters. This is incorrect when we have qgroups
turned on as those subtrees need to have their contents
accounted. In particular, the case we're concerned with is when
removing our snapshot root leaves the subtree with only one root
reference.
In those cases we need to find the last remaining root and add
each extent in the subtree to the corresponding qgroup exclusive
counts.
This patch implements the shared subtree walk and a new qgroup
operation, BTRFS_QGROUP_OPER_SUB_SUBTREE. When an operation of
this type is encountered during qgroup accounting, we search for
any root references to that extent and in the case that we find
only one reference left, we go ahead and do the math on it's
exclusive counts.

This percpu counter @total_bytes_pinned is introduced to skip unnecessary
operations of 'commit transaction', it accounts for those space we may free
but are stuck in delayed refs.
And we zero out @space_info->total_bytes_pinned every transaction period so
we have a better idea of how much space we'll actually free up by committing
this transaction. However, we do the 'zero out' part a little earlier, before
we actually unpin space, so we end up returning ENOSPC when we actually have
free space that's just unpinned from committing transaction.
xfstests/generic/074 complained then.
This fixes it by actually accounting the percpu pinned number when 'unpin',
and since it's protected by space_info->lock, the race is gone now.

When we mounted the filesystem after the crash, we got the following
message:
BTRFS error (device xxx): block group xxxx has wrong amount of free space
BTRFS error (device xxx): failed to load free space cache for block group xxx
It is because we didn't update the metadata of the allocated space (in extent
tree) until the file data was written into the disk. During this time, there was
no information about the allocated spaces in either the extent tree nor the
free space cache. when we wrote out the free space cache at this time (commit
transaction), those spaces were lost. In fact, only the free space that is
used to store the file data had this problem, the others didn't because
the metadata of them is updated in the same transaction context.
There are many methods which can fix the above problem
- track the allocated space, and write it out when we write out the free
space cache
- account the size of the allocated space that is used to store the file
data, if the size is not zero, don't write out the free space cache.
The first one is complex and may make the performance drop down.
This patch chose the second method, we use a per-block-group variant to
account the size of that allocated space. Besides that, we also introduce
a per-block-group read-write semaphore to avoid the race between
the allocation and the free space cache write out.

We are currently allocating space_info objects in an array when we
allocate space_info. When a user does something like:
# btrfs balance start -mconvert=raid1 -dconvert=raid1 /mnt
# btrfs balance start -mconvert=single -dconvert=single /mnt -f
# btrfs balance start -mconvert=raid1 -dconvert=raid1 /
We can end up with memory corruption since the kobject hasn't
been reinitialized properly and the name pointer was left set.
The rationale behind allocating them statically was to avoid
creating a separate kobject container that just contained the
raid type. It used the index in the array to determine the index.
Ultimately, though, this wastes more memory than it saves in all
but the most complex scenarios and introduces kobject lifetime
questions.
This patch allocates the kobjects dynamically instead. Note that
we also remove the kobject_get/put of the parent kobject since
kobject_add and kobject_del do that internally.

Currently qgroups account for space by intercepting delayed ref updates to fs
trees. It does this by adding sequence numbers to delayed ref updates so that
it can figure out how the tree looked before the update so we can adjust the
counters properly. The problem with this is that it does not allow delayed refs
to be merged, so if you say are defragging an extent with 5k snapshots pointing
to it we will thrash the delayed ref lock because we need to go back and
manually merge these things together. Instead we want to process quota changes
when we know they are going to happen, like when we first allocate an extent, we
free a reference for an extent, we add new references etc. This patch
accomplishes this by only adding qgroup operations for real ref changes. We
only modify the sequence number when we need to lookup roots for bytenrs, this
reduces the amount of churn on the sequence number and allows us to merge
delayed refs as we add them most of the time. This patch encompasses a bunch of
architectural changes
1) qgroup ref operations: instead of tracking qgroup operations through the
delayed refs we simply add new ref operations whenever we notice that we need to
when we've modified the refs themselves.
2) tree mod seq: we no longer have this separation of major/minor counters.
this makes the sequence number stuff much more sane and we can remove some
locking that was needed to protect the counter.
3) delayed ref seq: we now read the tree mod seq number and use that as our
sequence. This means each new delayed ref doesn't have it's own unique sequence
number, rather whenever we go to lookup backrefs we inc the sequence number so
we can make sure to keep any new operations from screwing up our world view at
that given point. This allows us to merge delayed refs during runtime.
With all of these changes the delayed ref stuff is a little saner and the qgroup
accounting stuff no longer goes negative in some cases like it was before.

Before applying this patch, the task had to reclaim the metadata space
by itself if the metadata space was not enough. And When the task started
the space reclamation, all the other tasks which wanted to reserve the
metadata space were blocked. At some cases, they would be blocked for
a long time, it made the performance fluctuate wildly.
So we introduce the background metadata space reclamation, when the space
is about to be exhausted, we insert a reclaim work into the workqueue, the
worker of the workqueue helps us to reclaim the reserved space at the
background. By this way, the tasks needn't reclaim the space by themselves at
most cases, and even if the tasks have to reclaim the space or are blocked
for the space reclamation, they will get enough space more quickly.

Lets try this again. We can deadlock the box if we send on a box and try to
write onto the same fs with the app that is trying to listen to the send pipe.
This is because the writer could get stuck waiting for a transaction commit
which is being blocked by the send. So fix this by making sure looking at the
commit roots is always going to be consistent. We do this by keeping track of
which roots need to have their commit roots swapped during commit, and then
taking the commit_root_sem and swapping them all at once. Then make sure we
take a read lock on the commit_root_sem in cases where we search the commit root
to make sure we're always looking at a consistent view of the commit roots.
Previously we had problems with this because we would swap a fs tree commit root
and then swap the extent tree commit root independently which would cause the
backref walking code to screw up sometimes. With this patch we no longer
deadlock and pass all the weird send/receive corner cases. Thanks,

The issue here is that the initialization function of btrfs (super.c:init_btrfs_fs)
started using crc32c (from lib/libcrc32c.c). But when it needs to call crc32c (as
part of the properties initialization routine), the libcrc32c is not yet initialized,
so crc32c derreferenced a NULL pointer (lib/libcrc32c.c:tfm), causing the kernel
panic on boot.
The approach to fix this is to use crypto component directly to use its crc32c (which
is basically what lib/libcrc32c.c is, a wrapper around crypto). This is what ext4 is
doing as well, it uses crypto directly to get crc32c functionality.
Verified this works both when btrfs is built-in and when it's loadable kernel module.

On one of our gluster clusters we noticed some pretty big lag spikes. This
turned out to be because our transaction commit was taking like 3 minutes to
complete. This is because we have like 30 gigs of metadata, so our global
reserve would end up being the max which is like 512 mb. So our throttling code
would allow a ridiculous amount of delayed refs to build up and then they'd all
get run at transaction commit time, and for a cold mounted file system that
could take up to 3 minutes to run. So fix the throttling to be based on both
the size of the global reserve and how long it takes us to run delayed refs.
This patch tracks the time it takes to run delayed refs and then only allows 1
seconds worth of outstanding delayed refs at a time. This way it will auto-tune
itself from cold cache up to when everything is in memory and it no longer has
to go to disk. This makes our transaction commits take much less time to run.

Currently we have two rb-trees, one for delayed ref heads and one for all of the
delayed refs, including the delayed ref heads. When we process the delayed refs
we have to hold onto the delayed ref lock for all of the selecting and merging
and such, which results in quite a bit of lock contention. This was solved by
having a waitqueue and only one flusher at a time, however this hurts if we get
a lot of delayed refs queued up.
So instead just have an rb tree for the delayed ref heads, and then attach the
delayed ref updates to an rb tree that is per delayed ref head. Then we only
need to take the delayed ref lock when adding new delayed refs and when
selecting a delayed ref head to process, all the rest of the time we deal with a
per delayed ref head lock which will be much less contentious.
The locking rules for this get a little more complicated since we have to lock
up to 3 things to properly process delayed refs, but I will address that problem
later. For now this passes all of xfstests and my overnight stress tests.

@full is not protected within global_rsv.lock, so we may think global_rsv
is already full but in fact it's not, so we miss the opportunity to return
free space to global_rsv directly when we release other block_rsvs.

We can starve out the transaction commit with a bunch of caching threads all
running at the same time. This is because we will only drop the
extent_commit_sem if we need_resched(), which isn't likely to happen since we
will be reading a lot from the disk so have already schedule()'ed plenty. Alex
observed that he could starve out a transaction commit for up to a minute with
32 caching threads all running at once. This will allow us to drop the
extent_commit_sem to allow the transaction commit to swap the commit_root out
and then all the cachers will start back up. Here is an explanation provided by
Igno
So, just to fill in what happens in this loop:
mutex_unlock(&caching_ctl->mutex);
cond_resched();
goto again;
where 'again:' takes caching_ctl->mutex and fs_info->extent_commit_sem
again:
again:
mutex_lock(&caching_ctl->mutex);
/* need to make sure the commit_root doesn't disappear */
down_read(&fs_info->extent_commit_sem);
So, if I'm reading the code correct, there can be a fair amount of
concurrency here: there may be multiple 'caching kthreads' per filesystem
active, while there's one fs_info->extent_commit_sem per filesystem
AFAICS.
So, what happens if there are a lot of CPUs all busy holding the
->extent_commit_sem rwsem read-locked and a writer arrives? They'd all
rush to try to release the fs_info->extent_commit_sem, and they'd block in
the down_read() because there's a writer waiting.
So there's a guarantee of forward progress. This should answer akpm's
concern I think.

We met the following oops when doing space balance:

The reason of this problem is that we initialized the raid kobject when we added
a block group into a empty raid list. As we know, when we mounted a btrfs filesystem,
the raid list was empty, we would initialize the raid kobject when we added the first
block group. But if there was not data stored in the block group, the block group
would be freed when doing balance, and the raid list would be empty. And then if we
allocated a new block group and added it into the raid list, we would initialize
the raid kobject again, the oops happened.
Fix this problem by initializing the raid kobject just when mounting the fs.

The way how we process delayed refs is
1) get a bunch of head refs,
2) pick up one head ref,
3) go one node back for any delayed ref updates.
The head ref is also linked in the same rbtree as the delayed ref is,
so in 1) stage, we have to walk one by one including not only head refs, but
delayed refs.
When we have a great number of delayed refs pending to process,
this'll cost time a lot.
Here we introduce a head ref specific rbtree, it only has head refs, so troubles
go away.
