The new backref format has restriction on type of backref item. If a tree
block isn't referenced by its owner tree, full backrefs must be used for the
pointers in it. When a tree block loses its owner tree's reference, backrefs
for the pointers in it should be updated to full backrefs. Current
btrfs_drop_snapshot misses the code that updates backrefs, so it's unsafe for
general use.
This patch adds backrefs update code to btrfs_drop_snapshot. It isn't a
problem in the restricted form btrfs_drop_snapshot is used today, but for
general snapshot deletion this update is required.

Using Eric Sandeen's xfstest for fallocate, you can easily trigger a ENOSPC
panic on btrfs. This is because we do not account for data we may use when
doing the fallocate. This patch fixes the problem by properly reserving space,
and then just freeing it when we are done. The reservation stuff was made with
delalloc in mind, so its a little crude for this case, but it keeps the box

write_dev_supers is called in sequence. First is it called with wait == 0,
which starts IO on all of the super blocks for a given device. Then it is
called with wait == 1 to make sure they all reach the disk.
It doesn't currently pin the buffers between the two calls, and it also
assumes the buffers won't go away between the two calls, leading to
an oops if the VM manages to free the buffers in the middle of the sync.
This fixes that assumption and updates the code to return an error if things

On multi-device filesystems, btrfs writes supers to all of the devices
before considering a sync complete. There wasn't any additional
locking between super writeout and the device list management code
because device management was done inside a transaction and
super writeout only happened with no transation writers running.
With the btrfs fsync log and other async transaction updates, this
has been racey for some time. This adds a mutex to protect
the device list. The existing volume mutex could not be reused due to

The btrfs IO submission threads try to service a bunch of devices with a small
number of threads. They do a congestion check to try and avoid waiting
on requests for a busy device.
The checks make sure we've sent a few requests down to a given device just so
that we aren't bouncing between busy devices without actually sending down
any IO. The counter used to decide if we can switch to the next device
is somewhat overloaded. It is also being used to decide if we've done
a good batch of requests between the WRITE_SYNC or regular priority lists.
It may get reset to zero often, leaving us hammering on a busy device
instead of moving on to another disk.
This commit adds a new counter for the number of bios sent while
servicing a device. It doesn't get reset or fiddled with. On
multi-device filesystems, this fixes IO stalls in streaming
write workloads.

Btrfs uses dedicated threads to submit bios when checksumming is on,
which allows us to make sure the threads dedicated to checksumming don't get
stuck waiting for requests. For each btrfs device, there are
two lists of bios. One list is for WRITE_SYNC bios and the other
is for regular priority bios.
The IO submission threads used to process all of the WRITE_SYNC bios first and
then switch to the regular bios. This commit makes sure we don't completely
starve the regular bios by rotating between the two lists.
WRITE_SYNC bios are still favored 2:1 over the regular bios, and this tries
to run in batches to avoid seeking. Benchmarking shows this eliminates
stalls during streaming buffered writes on both multi-device and
single device filesystems.
If the regular bios starve, the system can end up with a large amount of ram
pinned down in writeback pages. If we are a little more fair between the two
classes, we're able to keep throughput up and make progress on the bulk of
our dirty ram.

With the new back reference code, the cost of a balance has gone down

When the delayed reference code was added, some checks were added
to avoid extra balancing while the delayed references were being flushed.
This made for less efficient btrees, but it reduced the chances of
loops where no forward progress was made because the balances made
more delayed ref updates.
With the new dead root removal code and the mixed back references,
the extent allocation tree is no longer using precise back refs, and
the delayed reference updates don't carry the risk of looping forever
anymore. So, the balance avoidance is no longer required.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata.
Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER
BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS.
When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all
extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time,
the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure,
and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts
and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0.
The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out,
and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that
are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the
transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records.
When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the
new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference
count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents
the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by
one.
This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference
counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd.
But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block.
This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref
item.
We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new
back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which
tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer
by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it
only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees.
This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these
fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow.
The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common
case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root,
and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference
on a given block.
This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached
inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached
inodes whose inode numbers within a given range.
This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data
structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one
is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are
referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref.
The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large
number of snapshots.
This is a very large commit and was written in a number of
pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were
squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a
bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

In commit code, we scan buffers attached to a transaction. During this

But checking for buffer_jbd(bh) isn't enough because a new journal head
could get attached to our buffer head. So add a check whether the journal
head remained the same and whether it's still at the same transaction and

The recent ->lookup() deadlock correction required the directory inode
mutex to be dropped while waiting for expire completion. We were
concerned about side effects from this change and one has been identified.
I saw several error messages.
They cause autofs to become quite confused and don't really point to the
actual problem.
Things like:
handle_packet_missing_direct:1376: can't find map entry for (43,1827932)
which is usually totally fatal (although in this case it wouldn't be
except that I treat is as such because it normally is).
do_mount_direct: direct trigger not valid or already mounted
/test/nested/g3c/s1/ss1
which is recoverable, however if this problem is at play it can cause
autofs to become quite confused as to the dependencies in the mount tree
because mount triggers end up mounted multiple times. It's hard to
accurately check for this over mounting case and automount shouldn't need
to if the kernel module is doing its job.
There was one other message, similar in consequence of this last one but I
can't locate a log example just now.
When checking if a mount has already completed prior to adding a new mount
request to the wait queue we check if the dentry is hashed and, if so, if
it is a mount point. But, if a mount successfully completed while we
slept on the wait queue mutex the dentry must exist for the mount to have
completed so the test is not really needed.
Mounts can also be done on top of a global root dentry, so for the above
case, where a mount request completes and the wait queue entry has already
been removed, the hashed test returning false can cause an incorrect
callback to the daemon. Also, d_mountpoint() is not sufficient to check
if a mount has completed for the multi-mount case when we don't have a
real mount at the base of the tree.

OK, that's probably the easiest way to do that, as much as I don't like it...
Since iget() et.al. will not accept I_FREEING (will wait to go away
and restart), and since we'd better have serialization between new/free
on fs data structures anyway, we can afford simply skipping I_FREEING
et.al. in insert_inode_locked().
We do that from new_inode, so it won't race with free_inode in any interesting
ways and it won't race with iget (of any origin; nfsd or in case of fs
corruption a lookup) since both still will wait for I_LOCK.

The nobh_truncate_page() function is used by ext2, exofs, and jfs. Of
these three, only ext2 and jfs's get_block() function pays attention
to bh->b_size --- which is normally always the filesystem blocksize
except when the get_block() function is called by either
mpage_readpage(), mpage_readpages(), or the direct I/O routines in
fs/direct_io.c.
Unfortunately, nobh_truncate_page() does not initialize map_bh before
calling the filesystem-supplied get_block() function. So ext2 and jfs
will try to calculate the number of blocks to map by taking stack
garbage and shifting it left by inode->i_blkbits. This should be
*mostly* harmless (except the filesystem will do some unnneeded work)
unless the stack garbage is less than filesystem's blocksize, in which
case maxblocks will be zero, and the attempt to find out whether or
not the filesystem has a hole at a given logical block will fail, and
the page cache entry might not get zero'ed out.
Also if the stack garbage in in map_bh->state happens to have the
BH_Mapped bit set, there could be an attempt to call readpage() on a
non-existent page, which could cause nobh_truncate_page() to return an
error when it should not.
Fix this by initializing map_bh->state and map_bh->size.
Fortunately, it's probably fairly unlikely that ext2 and jfs users
mount with nobh these days.

Btrfs: Fix oops and use after free during space balancing
Btrfs: set device->total_disk_bytes when adding new device
The btrfs allocator uses list_for_each to walk the available block
groups when searching for free blocks. It starts off with a hint
to help find the best block group for a given allocation.
The hint is resolved into a block group, but we don't properly check
to make sure the block group we find isn't in the middle of being
freed due to filesystem shrinking or balancing. If it is being
freed, the list pointers in it are bogus and can't be trusted. But,
the code happily goes along and uses them in the list_for_each loop,
leading to all kinds of fun.
The fix used here is to check to make sure the block group we find really
is on the list before we use it. list_del_init is used when removing
it from the list, so we can do a proper check.
The allocation clustering code has a similar bug where it will trust
the block group in the current free space cluster. If our allocation
flags have changed (going from single spindle dup to raid1 for example)
because the drives in the FS have changed, we're not allowed to use
the old block group any more.
The fix used here is to check the current cluster against the
current allocation flags.

The flat loader uses an architecture's flat_stack_align() to align the
stack but assumes word-alignment is enough for the data sections.
However, on the Xtensa S6000 we have registers up to 128bit width
which can be used from userspace and therefor need userspace stack and
data-section alignment of at least this size.
This patch drops flat_stack_align() and uses the same alignment that
is required for slab caches, ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN, or wordsize if it's
not defined by the architecture.
It also fixes m32r which was obviously kaput, aligning an
uninitialized stack entry instead of the stack pointer.
