* kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: acquire the inode mutex safelyFrederic Weisbecker2009-09-142-36/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While searching a pathname, an inode mutex can be acquired in do_lookup() which calls reiserfs_lookup() which in turn acquires the write lock. On the other side reiserfs_fill_super() can acquire the write_lock and then call reiserfs_lookup_privroot() which can acquire an inode mutex (the root of the mount point). So we theoretically risk an AB - BA lock inversion that could lead to a deadlock. As for other lock dependencies found since the bkl to mutex conversion, the fix is to use reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe() which drops the lock dependency to the write lock.

* kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: unlock only when needed in search_by_keyFrederic Weisbecker2009-09-141-8/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | search_by_key() is the site which most requires the lock. This is mostly because it is a very central function and also because it releases/reaqcuires the write lock at least once each time it is called. Such release/reacquire creates a lot of contention in this place and also opens more the window which let another thread changing the tree. When it happens, the current path searching over the tree must be retried from the beggining (the root) which is a wasteful and time consuming recovery. This patch factorizes two release/reacquire sequences: - reading leaf nodes blocks - reading current block The latter immediately follows the former. The whole sequence is safe as a single unlocked section because we check just after if the tree has changed during these operations.

* kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: use mutex_lock in reiserfs_mutex_lock_safeFrederic Weisbecker2009-09-141-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe() is a hack to avoid any dependency between an internal reiserfs mutex and the write lock, it has been proposed to follow the old bkl logic. The code does the following: while (!mutex_trylock(m)) { reiserfs_write_unlock(s); schedule(); reiserfs_write_lock(s); } It then imitate the implicit behaviour of the lock when it was a Bkl and hadn't such dependency: mutex_lock(m) { if (fastpath) let's go else { wait_for_mutex() { schedule() { unlock_kernel() reacquire_lock_kernel() } } } } The problem is that by using such explicit schedule(), we don't benefit of the adaptive mutex spinning on owner. The logic in use now is: reiserfs_write_unlock(s); mutex_lock(m); // -> possible adaptive spinning reiserfs_write_lock(s); [ Impact: restore the use of adaptive spinning mutexes in reiserfs ] Cc: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Cc: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Alexander Beregalov <a.beregalov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | reiserfs_write_end() is a hot path in reiserfs. We have two wasteful write lock lock/release inside that can be gathered without changing the code logic. This patch factorizes them out in a single protected section, reducing the number of contentions inside.

* kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: reduce number of contentions in search_by_key()Frederic Weisbecker2009-09-141-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | search_by_key() is a central function in reiserfs which searches the patch in the fs tree from the root to a node given its key. It is the function that is most requesting the write lock because it's a path very often used. Also we forget to release the lock while reading the next tree node, making us holding the lock in a wasteful way. Then we release the lock while reading the current node and its childs, all-in-one. It should be safe because we have a reference to these blocks and even if we read a block that will be concurrently changed, we have an fs_changed check later that will make us retry the path from the root.

* kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: don't hold the write recursively in reiserfs_lookup()Frederic Weisbecker2009-09-141-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The write lock can be acquired recursively in reiserfs_lookup(). But we may want to *really* release the lock before possible rescheduling from a reiserfs_lookup() callee. Hence we want to only acquire the lock once (ie: not recursively).

* kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: lock only once on reiserfs_get_block()Frederic Weisbecker2009-09-141-8/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | reiserfs_get_block() is one of these sites where the write lock might be acquired recursively. It's a particular problem because this function is called very often. It's a hot spot which needs to reschedule() periodically while converting direct items to indirect ones because it can take some time. Then if we are applying the write lock release/reacquire pattern on schedule() here, it may not produce the desired effect since we may have locked in more than one depth. The solution is to use reiserfs_write_lock_once() which won't try to reacquire the lock recursively. Then the lock will be *really* released before schedule(). Also, we only release the lock if TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set to not create wasteful numerous contentions.

* kill-the-BKL/reiserfs: release the write lock inside get_neighbors()Frederic Weisbecker2009-09-141-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_neighbors() is used to get the left and/or right blocks against a given one in order to balance a tree. sb_bread() is used to read the buffer of these neighors blocks and while it waits for this operation, it might sleep. The bkl was released at this point, and then we can also release the write lock before calling sb_bread(). This is safe because if the filesystem is changed after this lock release, the function returns REPEAT_SEARCH (aka SCHEDULE_OCCURRED in the function header comments) in order to repeat the neighbhor research.

* kill-the-BKL/reiserfs: release write lock while rescheduling on ↵Frederic Weisbecker2009-09-141-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | prepare_for_delete_or_cut() prepare_for_delete_or_cut() can process several types of items, including indirect items, ie: items which contain no file data but pointers to unformatted nodes scattering the datas of a file. In this case it has to zero out these pointers to block numbers of unformatted nodes and release the bitmap from these block numbers. It can take some time, so a rescheduling() is performed between each block processed. We can safely release the write lock while rescheduling(), like the bkl did, because the code checks just after if the item has moved after sleeping.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix a deadlock reiserfs_dirty_inode() is the super_operations::dirty_inode() callback of reiserfs.

* kill-the-BKL/reiserfs: provide a tool to lock only once the write lockFrederic Weisbecker2009-09-141-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes we don't want to recursively hold the per superblock write lock because we want to be sure it is actually released when we come to sleep. This patch introduces the necessary tools for that. reiserfs_write_lock_once() does the same job than reiserfs_write_lock() except that it won't try to acquire recursively the lock if the current task already owns it. Also the lock_depth before the call of this function is returned. reiserfs_write_unlock_once() unlock only if reiserfs_write_lock_once() returned a depth equal to -1, ie: only if it actually locked.

* reiserfs: kill-the-BKLFrederic Weisbecker2009-09-1411-44/+245
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is an attempt to remove the Bkl based locking scheme from reiserfs and is intended. It is a bit inspired from an old attempt by Peter Zijlstra: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0704.2/2174.html The bkl is heavily used in this filesystem to prevent from concurrent write accesses on the filesystem. Reiserfs makes a deep use of the specific properties of the Bkl: - It can be acqquired recursively by a same task - It is released on the schedule() calls and reacquired when schedule() returns The two properties above are a roadmap for the reiserfs write locking so it's very hard to simply replace it with a common mutex. - We need a recursive-able locking unless we want to restructure several blocks of the code. - We need to identify the sites where the bkl was implictly relaxed (schedule, wait, sync, etc...) so that we can in turn release and reacquire our new lock explicitly. Such implicit releases of the lock are often required to let other resources producer/consumer do their job or we can suffer unexpected starvations or deadlocks. So the new lock that replaces the bkl here is a per superblock mutex with a specific property: it can be acquired recursively by a same task, like the bkl. For such purpose, we integrate a lock owner and a lock depth field on the superblock information structure. The first axis on this patch is to turn reiserfs_write_(un)lock() function into a wrapper to manage this mutex. Also some explicit calls to lock_kernel() have been converted to reiserfs_write_lock() helpers. The second axis is to find the important blocking sites (schedule...(), wait_on_buffer(), sync_dirty_buffer(), etc...) and then apply an explicit release of the write lock on these locations before blocking. Then we can safely wait for those who can give us resources or those who need some. Typically this is a fight between the current writer, the reiserfs workqueue (aka the async commiter) and the pdflush threads. The third axis is a consequence of the second. The write lock is usually on top of a lock dependency chain which can include the journal lock, the flush lock or the commit lock. So it's dangerous to release and trying to reacquire the write lock while we still hold other locks. This is fine with the bkl: T1 T2 lock_kernel() mutex_lock(A) unlock_kernel() // do something lock_kernel() mutex_lock(A) -> already locked by T1 schedule() (and then unlock_kernel()) lock_kernel() mutex_unlock(A) .... This is not fine with a mutex: T1 T2 mutex_lock(write) mutex_lock(A) mutex_unlock(write) // do something mutex_lock(write) mutex_lock(A) -> already locked by T1 schedule() mutex_lock(write) -> already locked by T2 deadlock The solution in this patch is to provide a helper which releases the write lock and sleep a bit if we can't lock a mutex that depend on it. It's another simulation of the bkl behaviour. The last axis is to locate the fs callbacks that are called with the bkl held, according to Documentation/filesystem/Locking. Those are: - reiserfs_remount - reiserfs_fill_super - reiserfs_put_super Reiserfs didn't need to explicitly lock because of the context of these callbacks. But now we must take care of that with the new locking. After this patch, reiserfs suffers from a slight performance regression (for now). On UP, a high volume write with dd reports an average of 27 MB/s instead of 30 MB/s without the patch applied.

It is then released through ext2_set_link() but only if old_dir != new_dir. Failing that, the pkmap reference count is never decremented and the page remains pinned forever. Repeat that a couple times with highmem pages and all pkmap slots get exhausted, and every further kmap() calls end up stalling on the pkmap_map_wait queue at which point the whole system comes to a halt.

This resolve a bug, but it isn't completed and the dentry is still there. When we want to use it again, ocfs2_dentry_revalidate doesn't catch it and return true. That make future ocfs2_dentry_lock panic out. One bug is http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1162. The resolution is to add a check for dentry->d_fsdata in revalidate process and return false if dentry->d_fsdata is NULL, so that a new ocfs2_lookup will be called again.

But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC. The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex. Even if we remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(), another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the tracee resumes. With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and we do not hold it throughout, instead: - introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred. - install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(), and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop(). or, if exec fails, free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

Since the rewrite that terminating byte was skipped if your filename is exactly a multiple of event_size. Ouch! So add one byte to name_size before we round up and use clear_user to set userspace to zero like /dev/zero does instead of copying the strange nul_inotify_event. I can't quite convince myself len_to_zero will never exceed 16 and even if it doesn't clear_user should be more efficient and a more accurate reflection of what the code is trying to do.
