Dave Chinner 93f958f9c4 xfs: cull unnecessary icdinode fields
Now that the struct xfs_icdinode is not directly related to the
on-disk format, we can cull things in it we really don't need to
store:

	- magic number never changes
	- padding is not necessary
	- next_unlinked is never used
	- inode number is redundant
	- uuid is redundant
	- lsn is accessed directly from dinode
	- inode CRC is only accessed directly from dinode

Hence we can remove these from the struct xfs_icdinode and redirect
the code that uses them to the xfs_dinode appripriately.  This
reduces the size of the struct icdinode from 152 bytes to 88 bytes,
and removes a fair chunk of unnecessary code, too.

Dave Chinner 3987848c7c xfs: remove timestamps from incore inode
The struct xfs_inode has two copies of the current timestamps in it,
one in the vfs inode and one in the struct xfs_icdinode. Now that we
no longer log the struct xfs_icdinode directly, we don't need to
keep the timestamps in this structure. instead we can copy them
straight out of the VFS inode when formatting the inode log item or
the on-disk inode.

This reduces the struct xfs_inode in size by 24 bytes.

Dave Chinner f8d55aa052 xfs: introduce inode log format object
We currently carry around and log an entire inode core in the
struct xfs_inode. A lot of the information in the inode core is
duplicated in the VFS inode, but we cannot remove this duplication
of infomration because the inode core is logged directly in
xfs_inode_item_format().

Add a new function xfs_inode_item_format_core() that copies the
inode core data into a struct xfs_icdinode that is pulled directly
from the log vector buffer. This means we no longer directly
copy the inode core, but copy the structures one member at a time.
This will be slightly less efficient than copying, but will allow us
to remove duplicate and unnecessary items from the struct xfs_inode.

To enable us to do this, call the new structure a xfs_log_dinode,
so that we know it's different to the physical xfs_dinode and the
in-core xfs_icdinode.

Dave Chinner fc0561cefc xfs: optimise away log forces on timestamp updates for fdatasync
xfs: timestamp updates cause excessive fdatasync log traffic

Sage Weil reported that a ceph test workload was writing to the
log on every fdatasync during an overwrite workload. Event tracing
showed that the only metadata modification being made was the
timestamp updates during the write(2) syscall, but fdatasync(2)
is supposed to ignore them. The key observation was that the
transactions in the log all looked like this:

INODE: #regs: 4   ino: 0x8b  flags: 0x45   dsize: 32

And contained a flags field of 0x45 or 0x85, and had data and
attribute forks following the inode core. This means that the
timestamp updates were triggering dirty relogging of previously
logged parts of the inode that hadn't yet been flushed back to
disk.

There are two parts to this problem. The first is that XFS relogs
dirty regions in subsequent transactions, so it carries around the
fields that have been dirtied since the last time the inode was
written back to disk, not since the last time the inode was forced
into the log.

The second part is that on v5 filesystems, the inode change count
update during inode dirtying also sets the XFS_ILOG_CORE flag, so
on v5 filesystems this makes a timestamp update dirty the entire
inode.

As a result when fdatasync is run, it looks at the dirty fields in
the inode, and sees more than just the timestamp flag, even though
the only metadata change since the last fdatasync was just the
timestamps. Hence we force the log on every subsequent fdatasync
even though it is not needed.

To fix this, add a new field to the inode log item that tracks
changes since the last time fsync/fdatasync forced the log to flush
the changes to the journal. This flag is updated when we dirty the
inode, but we do it before updating the change count so it does not
carry the "core dirty" flag from timestamp updates. The fields are
zeroed when the inode is marked clean (due to writeback/freeing) or
when an fsync/datasync forces the log. Hence if we only dirty the
timestamps on the inode between fsync/fdatasync calls, the fdatasync
will not trigger another log force.

Over 100 runs of the test program:

Ext4 baseline:
	runtime: 1.63s +/- 0.24s
	avg lat: 1.59ms +/- 0.24ms
	iops: ~2000

Mark Tinguely 52177937e9 xfs: xfs_iflush_done checks the wrong log item callback
Commit 3013683 ("xfs: remove all the inodes on a buffer from the AIL
in bulk") made the xfs inode flush callback more efficient by
combining all the inode writes on the buffer and the deletions of
the inode log item from AIL.

The initial loop in this patch should be looping through all
the log items on the buffer to see which items have
xfs_iflush_done as their callback function. But currently,
only the log item passed to the function has its callback
compared to xfs_iflush_done. If the log item pointer passed to
the function does have the xfs_iflush_done callback function,
then all the log items on the buffer are removed from the
li_bio_list on the buffer b_fspriv and could be removed from
the AIL even though they may have not been written yet.

This problem is masked by the fact that currently all inodes on a
buffer will have the same calback function - either xfs_iflush_done
or xfs_istale_done - and hence the bug cannot manifest in any way.
Still, we need to remove the landmine so that if we add new
callbacks in future this doesn't cause us problems.

Christoph Hellwig bde7cff67c xfs: format log items write directly into the linear CIL buffer
Instead of setting up pointers to memory locations in iop_format which then
get copied into the CIL linear buffer after return move the copy into
the individual inode items.  This avoids the need to always have a memory
block in the exact same layout that gets written into the log around, and
allow the log items to be much more flexible in their in-memory layouts.

The only caveat is that we need to properly align the data for each
iovec so that don't have structures misaligned in subsequent iovecs.

Note that all log item format routines now need to be careful to modify
the copy of the item that was placed into the CIL after calls to
xlog_copy_iovec instead of the in-memory copy.

Christoph Hellwig 43ff2122e6 xfs: on-stack delayed write buffer lists
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 ]

Christoph Hellwig 4c46819a80 xfs: do not write the buffer from xfs_iflush
Instead of writing the buffer directly from inside xfs_iflush return it to

remove the pincount check in xfs_iflush that all non-blocking callers already
implement and the now unused flags parameter.

Christoph Hellwig 8a9c9980f2 xfs: log timestamp updates
Timestamps on regular files are the last metadata that XFS does not update
transactionally.  Now that we use the delaylog mode exclusively and made
the log scode scale extremly well there is no need to bypass that code for
timestamp updates.  Logging all updates allows to drop a lot of code, and
will allow for further performance improvements later on.

Note that this patch drops optimized handling of fdatasync - it will be
added back in a separate commit.

Christoph Hellwig 5b03ff1b24 xfs: remove xfs_trans_unlocked_item
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.

Christoph Hellwig f392e6319a xfs: replace i_pin_wait with a bit waitqueue
Replace i_pin_wait, which is only used during synchronous inode flushing
with a bit waitqueue.  This trades off a much smaller inode against
slightly slower wakeup performance, and saves 12 (32-bit) or 20 (64-bit)
bytes in the XFS inode.

Christoph Hellwig 474fce0675 xfs: replace i_flock with a sleeping bitlock
We almost never block on i_flock, the exception is synchronous inode
flushing.  Instead of bloating the inode with a 16/24-byte completion
that we abuse as a semaphore just implement it as a bitlock that uses
a bit waitqueue for the rare sleeping path.  This primarily is a
tradeoff between a much smaller inode and a faster non-blocking
path vs faster wakeups, and we are much better off with the former.

A small downside is that we will lose lockdep checking for i_flock, but
given that it's always taken inside the ilock that should be acceptable.

Note that for example the inode writeback locking is implemented in a
very similar way.

of maintaining it.  Also introduce a few helpers to consolidate the places

Christoph Hellwig ddc3415aba xfs: simplify xfs_trans_ijoin* again
There is no reason to keep a reference to the inode even if we unlock
it during transaction commit because we never drop a reference between
the ijoin and commit.  Also use this fact to merge xfs_trans_ijoin_ref
back into xfs_trans_ijoin - the third argument decides if an unlock
is needed now.

I'm actually starting to wonder if allowing inodes to be unlocked
at transaction commit really is worth the effort.  The only real
benefit is that they can be unlocked earlier when commiting a
synchronous transactions, but that could be solved by doing the
log force manually after the unlock, too.
