In the typical unmount case, the AIL is forced out by the unmount
sequence before the xfsaild task is stopped. Since AIL items are
removed on writeback completion, this means that the AIL
->ail_buf_list delwri queue has been drained. This is not always
true in the shutdown case, however.
It's possible for buffers to sit on a delwri queue for a period of
time across submission attempts if said items are locked or have
been relogged and pinned since first added to the queue. If the
attempt to log such an item results in a log I/O error, the error
processing can shutdown the fs, remove the item from the AIL, stale
the buffer (dropping the LRU reference) and clear its delwri queue
state. The latter bit means the buffer will be released from a
delwri queue on the next submission attempt, but this might never
occur if the filesystem has shutdown and the AIL is empty.
This means that such buffers are held indefinitely by the AIL delwri
queue across destruction of the AIL. Aside from being a memory leak,
these buffers can also hold references to in-core perag structures.
The latter problem manifests as a generic/475 failure, reproducing
the following asserts at unmount time:
XFS: Assertion failed: atomic_read(&pag->pag_ref) == 0,
file: fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c, line: 151
XFS: Assertion failed: atomic_read(&pag->pag_ref) == 0,
file: fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c, line: 132
To prevent this problem, clear the AIL delwri queue as a final step
before xfsaild() exit. The !empty state should never occur in the
normal case, so add an assert to catch unexpected problems going
forward.
[dgc: add comment explaining need for xfs_buf_delwri_cancel() after
calling xfs_buf_delwri_submit_nowait().]

Remove the verbose license text from XFS files and replace them
with SPDX tags. This does not change the license of any of the code,
merely refers to the common, up-to-date license files in LICENSES/
This change was mostly scripted. fs/xfs/Makefile and
fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_fs.h were modified by hand, the rest were detected
and modified by the following command:
for f in `git grep -l "GNU General" fs/xfs/` ; do
echo $f
cat $f | awk -f hdr.awk > $f.new
mv -f $f.new $f
done
And the hdr.awk script that did the modification (including
detecting the difference between GPL-2.0 and GPL-2.0+ licenses)
is as follows:
$ cat hdr.awk
BEGIN {
hdr = 1.0
tag = "GPL-2.0"
str = ""
}
/^ \* This program is free software/ {
hdr = 2.0;
next

Been hitting AIL ordering assert failures recently, but been unable
to trace them down because the system immediately hangs up onteh
spinlock that was held when this assert fires:
XFS: Assertion failed: XFS_LSN_CMP(prev_lip->li_lsn, lip->li_lsn) <= 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_trans_ail.c, line: 52
Move the assertions outside of the spinlock so the corpse can
be dissected. Thanks to Brian Foster for supplying a clean
way of doing this.

The log item flags contain a field that is protected by the AIL
lock - the XFS_LI_IN_AIL flag. We use non-atomic RMW operations to
set and clear these flags, but most of the updates and checks are
not done with the AIL lock held and so are susceptible to update
races.
Fix this by changing the log item flags to use atomic bitops rather
than be reliant on the AIL lock for update serialisation.

A umount hang is possible when a race occurs between the umount
process and the xfsaild kthread. The following sequences outline
the race:
xfsaild: kthread_should_stop()
=> return false, so xfsaild continue
umount: set_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP, &kthread->flags)
=> by kthread_stop()
umount: wake_up_process()
=> because xfsaild is still running, so 0 is returned
xfsaild: __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE)
xfsaild: schedule()
=> now, xfsaild will wait indefinitely
umount: wait_for_completion()
=> and umount will hang
To fix that, we need to check kthread_should_stop() after we set
the task state, so the xfsaild will either see the stop bit and
exit or the task state is reset to runnable by wake_up_process()
such that it isn't scheduled out indefinitely and detects the stop
bit at the next iteration.

Add an error injection tag to force log items in the AIL to the
pinned state. This option can be used by test infrastructure to
induce head behind tail conditions. Specifically, this is intended
to be used by xfstests to reproduce log recovery problems after
failed/corrupted log writes overwrite the last good tail LSN in the
log.
When enabled, AIL push attempts see log items in the AIL in the
pinned state. This stalls metadata writeback and thus prevents the
current tail of the log from moving forward. When disabled,
subsequent AIL pushes observe the log items in their appropriate
state and filesystem operation continues as normal.

When a buffer has been failed during writeback, the inode items into it
are kept flush locked, and are never resubmitted due the flush lock, so,
if any buffer fails to be written, the items in AIL are never written to
disk and never unlocked.
This causes unmount operation to hang due these items flush locked in AIL,
but this also causes the items in AIL to never be written back, even when
the IO device comes back to normal.
I've been testing this patch with a DM-thin device, creating a
filesystem larger than the real device.
When writing enough data to fill the DM-thin device, XFS receives ENOSPC
errors from the device, and keep spinning on xfsaild (when 'retry
forever' configuration is set).
At this point, the filesystem can not be unmounted because of the flush locked
items in AIL, but worse, the items in AIL are never retried at all
(once xfs_inode_item_push() will skip the items that are flush locked),
even if the underlying DM-thin device is expanded to the proper size.
This patch fixes both cases, retrying any item that has been failed
previously, using the infra-structure provided by the previous patch.

xfs_iflush_done uses an on-stack variable length array to pass the log
items to be deleted to xfs_trans_ail_delete_bulk. On-stack VLAs are a
nasty gcc extension that can lead to unbounded stack allocations, but
fortunately we can easily avoid them by simply open coding
xfs_trans_ail_delete_bulk in xfs_iflush_done, which is the only caller
of it except for the single-item xfs_trans_ail_delete.

The issue has been there for quite some time but it has been made
visible by only by 24ba16bb3d49 ("xfs: clear PF_NOFREEZE for xfsaild
kthread") because the suspend started seeing xfsaild.
The above commit has missed that the !xfs_ail_min branch might call
schedule with TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE without calling try_to_freeze so the pm
suspend would wake up the kernel thread over and over again without any
progress. What we want here is to use freezable_schedule instead to hide
the thread from the suspend.
While we are here also change schedule_timeout to freezable variant to
prevent from spurious wakeups by suspend.
[dchinner: re-add set_freezeable call so the freezer will account properly
for this kthread. ]

This reverts commit 24ba16bb3d499c49974669cd8429c3e4138ab102 as it
prevents machines from suspending. This regression occurs when the
xfsaild is idle on entry to suspend, and so there s no activity to
wake it from it's idle sleep and hence see that it is supposed to
freeze. Hence the freezer times out waiting for it and suspend is
cancelled.
There is no obvious fix for this short of freezing the filesystem
properly, so revert this change for now.

Since xfsaild has been converted to kthread in 0030807c, it calls
try_to_freeze() during every AIL push iteration. It however doesn't set
itself as freezable, and therefore this try_to_freeze() will never do
anything.
Before (hopefully eventually) kthread freezing gets converted to fileystem
freezing, we'd rather mark xfsaild freezable (as it can generate I/O
during suspend).

xfs_trans.h has a dependency on xfs_log.h for a couple of
structures. Most code that does transactions doesn't need to know
anything about the log, but this dependency means that they have to
include xfs_log.h. Decouple the xfs_trans.h and xfs_log.h header
files and clean up the includes to be in dependency order.
In doing this, remove the direct include of xfs_trans_reserve.h from
xfs_trans.h so that we remove the dependency between xfs_trans.h and
xfs_mount.h. Hence the xfs_trans.h include can be moved to the
indicate the actual dependencies other header files have on it.
Note that these are kernel only header files, so this does not
translate to any userspace changes at all.

xfsaild idle mode logic currently leads to a couple hangs:
1.) If xfsaild is rescheduled in during an incremental scan
(i.e., tout != 0) and the target has been updated since
the previous run, we can hit the new target and go into
idle mode with a still populated ail.
2.) A wake up is only issued when the target is pushed forward.
The wake up can race with xfsaild if it is currently in the
process of entering idle mode, causing future wake up
events to be lost.
These hangs have been reproduced and verified as fixed by
running xfstests 273 in a loop on a slightly modified upstream
kernel. The kernel is modified to re-enable idle mode as
previously implemented (when count == 0) and with a revert of
commit 670ce93f, which includes performance improvements that
make this harder to reproduce.
The solution, the algorithm for which has been outlined by
Dave Chinner, is to modify xfsaild to enter idle mode only when
the ail is empty and the push target has not been moved forward
since the last push.

xfs_trans_ail_delete_bulk() can be called from different contexts so
if the item is not in the AIL we need different shutdown for each
context. Pass in the shutdown method needed so the correct action
can be taken.

Queue delwri buffers on a local on-stack list instead of a per-buftarg one,
and write back the buffers per-process instead of by waking up xfsbufd.
This is now easily doable given that we have very few places left that write
delwri buffers:
- log recovery:
Only done at mount time, and already forcing out the buffers
synchronously using xfs_flush_buftarg
- quotacheck:
Same story.
- dquot reclaim:
Writes out dirty dquots on the LRU under memory pressure. We might
want to look into doing more of this via xfsaild, but it's already
more optimal than the synchronous inode reclaim that writes each
buffer synchronously.
- xfsaild:
This is the main beneficiary of the change. By keeping a local list
of buffers to write we reduce latency of writing out buffers, and
more importably we can remove all the delwri list promotions which
were hitting the buffer cache hard under sustained metadata loads.
The implementation is very straight forward - xfs_buf_delwri_queue now gets
a new list_head pointer that it adds the delwri buffers to, and all callers
need to eventually submit the list using xfs_buf_delwi_submit or
xfs_buf_delwi_submit_nowait. Buffers that already are on a delwri list are
skipped in xfs_buf_delwri_queue, assuming they already are on another delwri
list. The biggest change to pass down the buffer list was done to the AIL
pushing. Now that we operate on buffers the trylock, push and pushbuf log
item methods are merged into a single push routine, which tries to lock the
item, and if possible add the buffer that needs writeback to the buffer list.
This leads to much simpler code than the previous split but requires the
individual IOP_PUSH instances to unlock and reacquire the AIL around calls
to blocking routines.
Given that xfsailds now also handle writing out buffers, the conditions for
log forcing and the sleep times needed some small changes. The most
important one is that we consider an AIL busy as long we still have buffers
to push, and the other one is that we do increment the pushed LSN for
buffers that are under flushing at this moment, but still count them towards
the stuck items for restart purposes. Without this we could hammer on stuck
items without ever forcing the log and not make progress under heavy random
delete workloads on fast flash storage devices.
[ Dave Chinner:
- rebase on previous patches.
- improved comments for XBF_DELWRI_Q handling
- fix XBF_ASYNC handling in queue submission (test 106 failure)
- rename delwri submit function buffer list parameters for clarity
- xfs_efd_item_push() should return XFS_ITEM_PINNED ]

Now that we write back all metadata either synchronously or through
the AIL we can simply implement metadata freezing in terms of
emptying the AIL.
The implementation for this is fairly simply and straight-forward:
A new routine is added that asks the xfsaild to push the AIL to the
end and waits for it to complete and send a wakeup. The routine will
then loop if the AIL is not actually empty, and continue to do so
until the AIL is compeltely empty.
We keep an inode reclaim pass in the freeze process to avoid having
memory pressure have to reclaim inodes that require dirtying the
filesystem to be reclaimed after the freeze has completed. This
means we can also treat unmount in the exact same way as freeze.
As an upside we can now remove the radix tree based inode writeback
and xfs_unmountfs_writesb.
[ Dave Chinner:
- Cleaned up commit message.
- Added inode reclaim passes back into freeze.
- Cleaned up wakeup mechanism to avoid the use of a new
sleep counter variable. ]

Provide a variant of xlog_assign_tail_lsn that has the AIL lock already
held. By doing so we do an additional atomic_read + atomic_set under
the lock, which comes down to two instructions.
Switch xfs_trans_ail_update_bulk and xfs_trans_ail_delete_bulk to the
new version to reduce the number of lock roundtrips, and prepare for
a new addition that would require a third lock roundtrip in
xfs_trans_ail_delete_bulk. This addition is also the reason for
slightly rearranging the conditionals and relying on xfs_log_space_wake
for checking that the filesystem has been shut down internally.

There is no reason to wake up log space waiters when unlocking inodes or
dquots, and the commit log has no explanation for this function either.
Given that we now have exact log space wakeups everywhere we can assume
the reason for this function was to paper over log space races in earlier
XFS versions.

Currently xfs_log_move_tail has a tail_lsn argument that is horribly
overloaded: it may contain either an actual lsn to assign to the log tail,
0 as a special case to use the last sync LSN, or 1 to indicate that no tail
LSN assignment should be performed, and we should opportunisticly wake up
at one task waiting for log space even if we did not move the LSN.
Remove the tail lsn assigned from xfs_log_move_tail and make the two callers
use xlog_assign_tail_lsn instead of the current variant of partially using
the code in xfs_log_move_tail and partially opencoding it. Note that means
we grow an addition lock roundtrip on the AIL lock for each bulk update
or delete, which is still far less than what we had before introducing the
bulk operations. If this proves to be a problem we can still add a variant
of xlog_assign_tail_lsn that expects the lock to be held already.
Also rename the remainder of xfs_log_move_tail to xfs_log_space_wake as
that name describes its functionality much better.

Currently we have a few issues with the way the workqueue code is used to
implement AIL pushing:
- it accidentally uses the same workqueue as the syncer action, and thus
can be prevented from running if there are enough sync actions active
in the system.
- it doesn't use the HIGHPRI flag to queue at the head of the queue of
work items
At this point I'm not confident enough in getting all the workqueue flags and
tweaks right to provide a perfectly reliable execution context for AIL
pushing, which is the most important piece in XFS to make forward progress
when the log fills.
Revert back to use a kthread per filesystem which fixes all the above issues
at the cost of having a task struct and stack around for each mounted
filesystem. In addition this also gives us much better ways to diagnose
any issues involving hung AIL pushing and removes a small amount of code.

items flush into the same buffers that may be pinned directly due operations
on the unlinked inode list operating directly on buffers. To do this add a

If an item was locked we should not update xa_last_pushed_lsn and thus skip
it when restarting the AIL scan as we need to be able to lock and write it
out as soon as possible. Otherwise heavy lock contention might starve AIL
pushing too easily, especially given the larger backoff once we moved
xa_last_pushed_lsn all the way to the target lsn.

The AIL push code will issue a log force on ever single push loop
that it exits and has encountered pinned items. It doesn't rescan
these pinned items until it revisits the AIL from the start. Hence
we only need to force the log once per walk from the start of the
AIL to the target LSN.
This results in numbers like this:
xs_push_ail_flush..... 1456
xs_log_force......... 1485
For an 8-way 50M inode create workload - almost all the log forces
are coming from the AIL pushing code.
Reduce the number of log forces by only forcing the log if the
previous walk found pinned buffers. This reduces the numbers to:
xs_push_ail_flush..... 665
xs_log_force......... 682
For the same test.

In xfs_ail_splice(), if a cursor is provided it is updated to
point to the last item on the list being spliced into the AIL.
But if the AIL was found to be empty, the cursor (if provided)
is just initialized instead.
There is no reason the empty AIL case needs to be treated any
differently. And treating it the same way allows this code
to be rearranged a bit, with a somewhat tidier result.

The list of active AIL cursors uses a roll-your-own linked list with
special casing for the AIL push cursor. Simplify this code by
replacing the list with standard struct list_head lists, and use a
separate list_head to track the active cursors. This allows us to
treat the AIL push cursor as a generic cursor rather than as a
special case, further simplifying the code.
Further, fix the duplicate push cursor initialisation that the
special case handling was hiding, and clean up all the comments
around the active cursor list handling.

xfs_trans_ail_cursor_set() doesn't set the cursor to the current log

simply a two line wrapper. Remove it and open code the setting of

Delayed logging can insert tens of thousands of log items into the
AIL at the same LSN. When the committing of log commit records
occur, we can get insertions occurring at an LSN that is not at the
end of the AIL. If there are thousands of items in the AIL on the
tail LSN, each insertion has to walk the AIL to find the correct
place to insert the new item into the AIL. This can consume large
amounts of CPU time and block other operations from occurring while
the traversals are in progress.
To avoid this repeated walk, use a AIL cursor to record
where we should be inserting the new items into the AIL without
having to repeat the walk. The cursor infrastructure already
provides this functionality for push walks, so is a simple extension
of existing code. While this will not avoid the initial walk, it
will avoid repeating it tens of thousands of times during a single
checkpoint commit.
This version includes logic improvements from Christoph Hellwig.

The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One is caused by a
race condition in determining whether there is a psh in progress or
not.
The XFS_AIL_PUSHING_BIT is used to determine whether a push is
currently in progress. When the AIL push work completes, it checked
whether the target changed and cleared the PUSHING bit to allow a
new push to be requeued. The race condition is as follows:
Thread 1 push work
smp_wmb()
smp_rmb()
check ailp->xa_target unchanged
update ailp->xa_target
test/set PUSHING bit
does not queue
clear PUSHING bit
does not requeue
Now that the push target is updated, new attempts to push the AIL
will not trigger as the push target will be the same, and hence
despite trying to push the AIL we won't ever wake it again.
The fix is to ensure that the AIL push work clears the PUSHING bit
before it checks if the target is unchanged.
As a result, both push triggers operate on the same test/set bit
criteria, so even if we race in the push work and miss the target
update, the thread requesting the push will still set the PUSHING
bit and queue the push work to occur. For safety sake, the same
queue check is done if the push work detects the target change,
though only one of the two will will queue new work due to the use
of test_and_set_bit() checks.

The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One of the problems
noticed was that updates of the push target are not 32 bit safe as
the target is a 64 bit value.
We cannot copy a 64 bit LSN without the possibility of corrupting
the result when racing with another updating thread. We have
function to do this update safely without needing to care about
32/64 bit issues - xfs_trans_ail_copy_lsn() - so use that when
updating the AIL push target.
Also move the reading of the target in the push work inside the AIL
lock, and use XFS_LSN_CMP() for the unlocked comparison during work
termination to close read holes as well.

The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One of the problems
discovered is a target mismatch between the item pushing loop and
the target itself.
The push trigger checks for the target increasing (i.e. new target >
current) while the push loop only pushes items that have a LSN <
current. As a result, we can get the situation where the push target
is X, the items at the tail of the AIL have LSN X and they don't get
pushed. The push work then completes thinking it is done, and cannot
be restarted until the push target increases to >= X + 1. If the
push target then never increases (because the tail is not moving),
then we never run the push work again and we stall.
Fix it by making sure log items with a LSN that matches the target
exactly are pushed during the loop.
