jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() can oops when trying to access
journal_head returned by bh2jh(). This is caused for example by the
following race:
TASK1 TASK2
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
...
processing t_forget list
__jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(jh);
if (!jh->b_transaction) {
jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh);
jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers()
jbd2_journal_grab_journal_head(bh)
jbd_lock_bh_state(bh)
__journal_try_to_free_buffer()
jbd2_journal_put_journal_head(jh)
jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head(bh);
jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() in TASK2 sees that b_jcount == 0 and
buffer is not part of any transaction and thus frees journal_head
before TASK1 gets to doing so. Note that even buffer_head can be
released by try_to_free_buffers() after
jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() which adds even larger opportunity for
oops (but I didn't see this happen in reality).
Fix the problem by making transactions hold their own journal_head
reference (in b_jcount). That way we don't have to remove journal_head
explicitely via jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() and instead just
remove journal_head when b_jcount drops to zero. The result of this is
that [__]jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(),
[__]jbd2_journal_unfile_buffer(), and
__jdb2_journal_remove_checkpoint() can free journal_head which needs
modification of a few callers. Also we have to be careful because once
journal_head is removed, buffer_head might be freed as well. So we
have to get our own buffer_head reference where it matters.

In data=ordered mode, it's theoretically possible (however rare) that
an inode is filed to transaction's t_inode_list and a flusher thread
writes all the data and inode is reclaimed before the transaction
starts to commit. In such a case, we could erroneously omit sending a
flush to file system device when it is different from the journal
device (because data can still be in disk cache only).
Fix the problem by setting a flag in a transaction when some inode is added
to it and then send disk flush in the commit code when the flag is set.

This fixes a hang seen in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode
on a lot of Power 6 systems running with ext4. When we get
in the hung state, all I/O to the disk in question gets blocked
where we stay indefinitely. Looking at the task list, I can see
we are stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode waiting on a

dump additional data if we were stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode
for longer than 30 minutes. When it hit, I was able to see that
i_flags was 0, suggesting we missed the wake up.
This patch changes i_flags to be an unsigned long, uses bit operators
to access it, and adds barriers around the accesses. Prior to applying
this patch, we were regularly hitting this hang on numerous systems
in our test environment. After applying the patch, the hangs no longer
occur.

Fsync performance for small files achieved by cfq on high-end disks is
lower than what deadline can achieve, due to idling introduced between
the sync write happening in process context and the journal commit.
Moreover, when competing with a sequential reader, a process writing
small files and fsync-ing them is starved.
This patch fixes the two problems by:
- marking journal commits as WRITE_SYNC, so that they get the REQ_NOIDLE
flag set,
- force all queues that have REQ_NOIDLE requests to be put in the noidle
tree.
Having the queue associated to the fsync-ing process and the one associated
to journal commits in the noidle tree allows:
- switching between them without idling,
- fairness vs. competing idling queues, since they will be serviced only
after the noidle tree expires its slice.

This is a bit complicated because we are trying to optimize when we
send barriers to the fs data disk. We could just throw in an extra
barrier to the data disk whenever we send a barrier to the journal
disk, but that's not always strictly necessary.
We only need to send a barrier during a commit when there are data
blocks which are must be written out due to an inode written in
ordered mode, or if fsync() depends on the commit to force data blocks
to disk. Finally, before we drop transactions from the beginning of
the journal during a checkpoint operation, we need to guarantee that
any blocks that were flushed out to the data disk are firmly on the
rust platter before we drop the transaction from the journal.

Previously the journal_async_commit mount option was equivalent to
using barrier=0 (and just as unsafe). This patch fixes it so that we
eliminate the barrier before the commit block (by not using ordered
mode), and explicitly issuing an empty barrier bio after writing the
commit block. Because of the journal checksum, it is safe to do this;
if the journal blocks are not all written before a power failure, the
checksum in the commit block will prevent the last transaction from
being replayed.
Using the fs_mark benchmark, using journal_async_commit shows a 50%
improvement:

Filesystems often to do compute intensive operation on some
metadata. If this operation is repeated many times, it can be very
expensive. It would be much nicer if the operation could be performed
once before a buffer goes to disk.
This adds triggers to jbd2 buffer heads. Just before writing a metadata
buffer to the journal, jbd2 will optionally call a commit trigger associated
with the buffer. If the journal is aborted, an abort trigger will be
called on any dirty buffers as they are dropped from pending
transactions.
ocfs2 will use this feature.
Initially I tried to come up with a more generic trigger that could be
used for non-buffer-related events like transaction completion. It
doesn't tie nicely, because the information a buffer trigger needs
(specific to a journal_head) isn't the same as what a transaction
trigger needs (specific to a tranaction_t or perhaps journal_t). So I
implemented a buffer set, with the understanding that
journal/transaction wide triggers should be implemented separately.
There is only one trigger set allowed per buffer. I can't think of any
reason to attach more than one set. Contrast this with a journal or
transaction in which multiple places may want to watch the entire
transaction separately.
The trigger sets are considered static allocation from the jbd2
perspective. ocfs2 will just have one trigger set per block type,
setting the same set on every bh of the same type.

This patch removes the static sleep time in favor of a more self
optimizing approach where we measure the average amount of time it
takes to commit a transaction to disk and the ammount of time a
transaction has been running. If somebody does a sync write or an
fsync() traditionally we would sleep for 1 jiffies, which depending on
the value of HZ could be a significant amount of time compared to how
long it takes to commit a transaction to the underlying storage. With
this patch instead of sleeping for a jiffie, we check to see if the
amount of time this transaction has been running is less than the
average commit time, and if it is we sleep for the delta using
schedule_hrtimeout to give us a higher precision sleep time. This
greatly benefits high end storage where you could end up sleeping for
longer than it takes to commit the transaction and therefore sitting
idle instead of allowing the transaction to be committed by keeping
the sleep time to a minimum so you are sure to always be doing
something.

The multiblock allocator needs to be able to release blocks (and issue
a blkdev discard request) when the transaction which freed those
blocks is committed. Previously this was done via a polling mechanism
when blocks are allocated or freed. A much better way of doing things

to be freed directly to the transaction structure.

If the journal doesn't abort when it gets an IO error in file data
blocks, the file data corruption will spread silently. Because
most of applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(),
they don't notice the IO error. It's scary for mission critical
systems. On the other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets
an IO error in file data blocks, the system will easily become
inoperable. So this patch introduces a filesystem option to
determine whether it aborts the journal or just call printk() when
it gets an IO error in file data.
If you mount an ext4 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file
data write error. If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't
abort, just call printk(). data_err=ignore is the default.
Here is the corresponding patch of the ext3 version:

Currently, original metadata buffers are dirtied when they are
unfiled whether the journal has aborted or not. Eventually these
buffers will be written-back to the filesystem by pdflush. This
means some metadata buffers are written to the filesystem without
journaling if the journal aborts. So if both journal abort and
system crash happen at the same time, the filesystem would become
inconsistent state. Additionally, replaying journaled metadata
can overwrite the latest metadata on the filesystem partly.
Because, if the journal gets aborted, journaled metadata are
preserved and replayed during the next mount not to lose
uncheckpointed metadata. This would also break the consistency
of the filesystem.
This patch prevents original metadata buffers from being dirtied
on abort by clearing BH_JBDDirty flag from those buffers. Thus,
no metadata buffers are written to the filesystem without journaling.

If we failed to write metadata buffers to the journal space and
succeeded to write the commit record, stale data can be written
back to the filesystem as metadata in the recovery phase.
To avoid this, when we failed to write out metadata buffers,
abort the journal before writing the commit record.
We can also avoid this kind of corruption by using the journal
checksum feature because it can detect invalid metadata blocks in the
journal and avoid them from being replayed. So we don't need to care
about asynchronous commit record writeout with a checksum.
