Now that we have all the dirty inodes attached to the cluster
buffer, we don't actually have to do radix tree lookups to find
them. Sure, the radix tree is efficient, but walking a linked list
of just the dirty inodes attached to the buffer is much better.
We are also no longer dependent on having a locked inode passed into
the function to determine where to start the lookup. This means we
can drop it from the function call and treat all inodes the same.
We also make xfs_iflush_cluster skip inodes marked with
XFS_IRECLAIM. This we avoid races with inodes that reclaim is
actively referencing or are being re-initialised by inode lookup. If
they are actually dirty, they'll get written by a future cluster
flush....
We also add a shutdown check after obtaining the flush lock so that
we catch inodes that are dirty in memory and may have inconsistent
state due to the shutdown in progress. We abort these inodes
directly and so they remove themselves directly from the buffer list
and the AIL rather than having to wait for the buffer to be failed
and callbacks run to be processed correctly.

Now we have a cached buffer on inode log items, we don't need
to do buffer lookups when flushing inodes anymore - all we need
to do is lock the buffer and we are ready to go.
This largely gets rid of the need for xfs_iflush(), which is
essentially just a mechanism to look up the buffer and flush the
inode to it. Instead, we can just call xfs_iflush_cluster() with a
few modifications to ensure it also flushes the inode we already
hold locked.
This allows the AIL inode item pushing to be almost entirely
non-blocking in XFS - we won't block unless memory allocation
for the cluster inode lookup blocks or the block device queues are
full.
Writeback during inode reclaim becomes a little more complex because
we now have to lock the buffer ourselves, but otherwise this change
is largely a functional no-op that removes a whole lot of code.

Once we have inodes pinning the cluster buffer and attached whenever
they are dirty, we no longer have a guarantee that the items are
flush locked when we lock the cluster buffer. Hence we cannot just
walk the buffer log item list and modify the attached inodes.
If the inode is not flush locked, we have to ILOCK it first and then
flush lock it to do all the prerequisite checks needed to avoid
races with other code. This is already handled by
xfs_ifree_get_one_inode(), so rework the inode iteration loop and
function to update all inodes in cache whether they are attached to
the buffer or not.
Note: we also remove the copying of the log item lsn to the
ili_flush_lsn as xfs_iflush_done() now uses the XFS_ISTALE flag to
trigger aborts and so flush lsn matching is not needed in IO
completion for processing freed inodes.

Now that dirty inode writeback doesn't cause read-modify-write
cycles on the inode cluster buffer under memory pressure, the need
to throttle memory reclaim to the rate at which we can clean dirty
inodes goes away. That is due to the fact that we no longer thrash
inode cluster buffers under memory pressure to clean dirty inodes.
This means inode writeback no longer stalls on memory allocation
or read IO, and hence can be done asynchronously without generating
memory pressure. As a result, blocking inode writeback in reclaim is
no longer necessary to prevent reclaim priority windup as cleaning
dirty inodes is no longer dependent on having memory reserves
available for the filesystem to make progress reclaiming inodes.
Hence we can convert inode reclaim to be non-blocking for shrinker
callouts, both for direct reclaim and kswapd.
On a vanilla kernel, running a 16-way fsmark create workload on a
4 node/16p/16GB RAM machine, I can reliably pin 14.75GB of RAM via
userspace mlock(). The OOM killer gets invoked at 15GB of
pinned RAM.
Without the inode cluster pinning, this non-blocking reclaim patch
triggers premature OOM killer invocation with the same memory
pinning, sometimes with as much as 45% of RAM being free. It's
trivially easy to trigger the OOM killer when reclaim does not
block.
With pinning inode clusters in RAM and then adding this patch, I can
reliably pin 14.5GB of RAM and still have the fsmark workload run to
completion. The OOM killer gets invoked 14.75GB of pinned RAM, which
is only a small amount of memory less than the vanilla kernel. It is
much more reliable than just with async reclaim alone.
simoops shows that allocation stalls go away when async reclaim is
used. Vanilla kernel:
Run time: 1924 seconds
Read latency (p50: 3,305,472) (p95: 3,723,264) (p99: 4,001,792)

Allocation latency (p50: 2,641,920) (p95: 3,911,680) (p99: 4,464,640)
work rate = 13.45/sec (avg 13.44/sec) (p50: 13.46) (p95: 13.58) (p99: 13.70)
alloc stall rate = 3.80/sec (avg: 2.59) (p50: 2.54) (p95: 2.96) (p99: 3.02)
With inode cluster pinning and async reclaim:
Run time: 1924 seconds
Read latency (p50: 3,305,472) (p95: 3,715,072) (p99: 3,977,216)

Allocation latency (p50: 2,748,416) (p95: 3,919,872) (p99: 4,448,256)
work rate = 13.28/sec (avg 13.32/sec) (p50: 13.26) (p95: 13.34) (p99: 13.34)
alloc stall rate = 0.02/sec (avg: 0.02) (p50: 0.01) (p95: 0.03) (p99: 0.03)
Latencies don't really change much, nor does the work rate. However,
allocation almost never stalls with these changes, whilst the
vanilla kernel is sometimes reporting 20 stalls/s over a 60s sample
period. This difference is due to inode reclaim being largely
non-blocking now.
IOWs, once we have pinned inode cluster buffers, we can make inode
reclaim non-blocking without a major risk of premature and/or
spurious OOM killer invocation, and without any changes to memory
reclaim infrastructure.

When we dirty an inode, we are going to have to write it disk at
some point in the near future. This requires the inode cluster
backing buffer to be present in memory. Unfortunately, under severe
memory pressure we can reclaim the inode backing buffer while the
inode is dirty in memory, resulting in stalling the AIL pushing
because it has to do a read-modify-write cycle on the cluster
buffer.
When we have no memory available, the read of the cluster buffer
blocks the AIL pushing process, and this causes all sorts of issues
for memory reclaim as it requires inode writeback to make forwards
progress. Allocating a cluster buffer causes more memory pressure,
and results in more cluster buffers to be reclaimed, resulting in
more RMW cycles to be done in the AIL context and everything then
backs up on AIL progress. Only the synchronous inode cluster
writeback in the the inode reclaim code provides some level of
forwards progress guarantees that prevent OOM-killer rampages in
this situation.
Fix this by pinning the inode backing buffer to the inode log item
when the inode is first dirtied (i.e. in xfs_trans_log_inode()).
This may mean the first modification of an inode that has been held
in cache for a long time may block on a cluster buffer read, but
we can do that in transaction context and block safely until the
buffer has been allocated and read.
Once we have the cluster buffer, the inode log item takes a
reference to it, pinning it in memory, and attaches it to the log
item for future reference. This means we can always grab the cluster
buffer from the inode log item when we need it.
When the inode is finally cleaned and removed from the AIL, we can
drop the reference the inode log item holds on the cluster buffer.
Once all inodes on the cluster buffer are clean, the cluster buffer
will be unpinned and it will be available for memory reclaim to
reclaim again.
This avoids the issues with needing to do RMW cycles in the AIL
pushing context, and hence allows complete non-blocking inode
flushing to be performed by the AIL pushing context.

The inode log item is kind of special in that it can be aggregating
new changes in memory at the same time time existing changes are
being written back to disk. This means there are fields in the log
item that are accessed concurrently from contexts that don't share
any locking at all.
e.g. updating ili_last_fields occurs at flush time under the
ILOCK_EXCL and flush lock at flush time, under the flush lock at IO
completion time, and is read under the ILOCK_EXCL when the inode is
logged. Hence there is no actual serialisation between reading the
field during logging of the inode in transactions vs clearing the
field in IO completion.
We currently get away with this by the fact that we are only
clearing fields in IO completion, and nothing bad happens if we
accidentally log more of the inode than we actually modify. Worst
case is we consume a tiny bit more memory and log bandwidth.
However, if we want to do more complex state manipulations on the
log item that requires updates at all three of these potential
locations, we need to have some mechanism of serialising those
operations. To do this, introduce a spinlock into the log item to
serialise internal state.
This could be done via the xfs_inode i_flags_lock, but this then
leads to potential lock inversion issues where inode flag updates
need to occur inside locks that best nest inside the inode log item
locks (e.g. marking inodes stale during inode cluster freeing).
Using a separate spinlock avoids these sorts of problems and
simplifies future code.
This does not touch the use of ili_fields in the item formatting
code - that is entirely protected by the ILOCK_EXCL at this point in
time, so it remains untouched.

In tracking down a problem in this patchset, I discovered we are
reclaiming dirty stale inodes. This wasn't discovered until inodes
were always attached to the cluster buffer and then the rcu callback
that freed inodes was assert failing because the inode still had an
active pointer to the cluster buffer after it had been reclaimed.
Debugging the issue indicated that this was a pre-existing issue
resulting from the way the inodes are handled in xfs_inactive_ifree.
When we free a cluster buffer from xfs_ifree_cluster, all the inodes
in cache are marked XFS_ISTALE. Those that are clean have nothing
else done to them and so eventually get cleaned up by background
reclaim. i.e. it is assumed we'll never dirty/relog an inode marked
XFS_ISTALE.
On journal commit dirty stale inodes as are handled by both
buffer and inode log items to run though xfs_istale_done() and
removed from the AIL (buffer log item commit) or the log item will
simply unpin it because the buffer log item will clean it. What happens
to any specific inode is entirely dependent on which log item wins
the commit race, but the result is the same - stale inodes are
clean, not attached to the cluster buffer, and not in the AIL. Hence
inode reclaim can just free these inodes without further care.
However, if the stale inode is relogged, it gets dirtied again and
relogged into the CIL. Most of the time this isn't an issue, because
relogging simply changes the inode's location in the current
checkpoint. Problems arise, however, when the CIL checkpoints
between two transactions in the xfs_inactive_ifree() deferops
processing. This results in the XFS_ISTALE inode being redirtied
and inserted into the CIL without any of the other stale cluster
buffer infrastructure being in place.
Hence on journal commit, it simply gets unpinned, so it remains
dirty in memory. Everything in inode writeback avoids XFS_ISTALE
inodes so it can't be written back, and it is not tracked in the AIL
so there's not even a trigger to attempt to clean the inode. Hence
the inode just sits dirty in memory until inode reclaim comes along,
sees that it is XFS_ISTALE, and goes to reclaim it. This reclaiming
of a dirty inode caused use after free, list corruptions and other
nasty issues later in this patchset.
Hence this patch addresses a violation of the "never log XFS_ISTALE
inodes" caused by the deferops processing rolling a transaction
and relogging a stale inode in xfs_inactive_free. It also adds a
bunch of asserts to catch this problem in debug kernels so that
we don't reintroduce this problem in future.

checking page->mapping is correct and page->index is within EOF.
However, we've known for a long time that this is not sufficient to
protect against races with invalidations done by operations that do
not change EOF. e.g. hole punching and other fallocate() based
direct extent manipulations. The way we protect against these
races is we wrap the page fault operations in a XFS_MMAPLOCK_SHARED
lock so they serialise against fallocate and truncate before calling
into the filemap function that processes the fault.
Do the same for XFS's ->map_pages implementation to close this
potential data corruption issue.

When logging quota block count updates during a reflink operation, we
only log the /delta/ of the block count changes to the dquot. Since we
now know ahead of time the extent type of both dmap and smap (and that
they have the same length), we know that we only need to reserve quota
blocks for dmap's blockcount if we're mapping it into a hole.

Now that we've reworked xfs_reflink_remap_extent to remap only one
extent per transaction, we actually know if the extent being removed is
an allocated mapping. This means that we now know ahead of time if
we're going to be touching the data fork.
Since we only need blocks for a bmbt split if we're going to update the
data fork, we only need to get quota reservation if we know we're going
to touch the data fork.

The existing reflink remapping loop has some structural problems that
need addressing:
The biggest problem is that we create one transaction for each extent in
the source file without accounting for the number of mappings there are
for the same range in the destination file. In other words, we don't
know the number of remap operations that will be necessary and we
therefore cannot guess the block reservation required. On highly
fragmented filesystems (e.g. ones with active dedupe) we guess wrong,
run out of block reservation, and fail.
The second problem is that we don't actually use the bmap intents to
their full potential -- instead of calling bunmapi directly and having
to deal with its backwards operation, we could call the deferred ops
xfs_bmap_unmap_extent and xfs_refcount_decrease_extent instead. This
makes the frontend loop much simpler.
Solve all of these problems by refactoring the remapping loops so that
we only perform one remapping operation per transaction, and each
operation only tries to remap a single extent from source to dest.

The data fork scrubber calls filemap_write_and_wait to flush dirty pages
and delalloc reservations out to disk prior to checking the data fork's
extent mappings. Unfortunately, this means that scrub can consume the
EIO/ENOSPC errors that would otherwise have stayed around in the address
space until (we hope) the writer application calls fsync to persist data
and collect errors. The end result is that programs that wrote to a
file might never see the error code and proceed as if nothing were
wrong.
xfs_scrub is not in a position to notify file writers about the
writeback failure, and it's only here to check metadata, not file
contents. Therefore, if writeback fails, we should stuff the error code
back into the address space so that an fsync by the writer application
can pick that up.

The rmapbt extent swap algorithm remaps individual extents between
the source inode and the target to trigger reverse mapping metadata
updates. If either inode straddles a format or other bmap allocation
boundary, the individual unmap and map cycles can trigger repeated
bmap block allocations and frees as the extent count bounces back
and forth across the boundary. While net block usage is bound across
the swap operation, this behavior can prematurely exhaust the
transaction block reservation because it continuously drains as the
transaction rolls. Each allocation accounts against the reservation
and each free returns to global free space on transaction roll.
The previous workaround to this problem attempted to detect this
boundary condition and provide surplus block reservation to
acommodate it. This is insufficient because more remaps can occur
than implied by the extent counts; if start offset boundaries are
not aligned between the two inodes, for example.
To address this problem more generically and dynamically, add a
transaction accounting mode that returns freed blocks to the
transaction reservation instead of the superblock counters on
transaction roll and use it when the rmapbt based algorithm is
active. This allows the chain of remap transactions to preserve the
block reservation based own its own frees and prevent premature
exhaustion regardless of the remap pattern. Note that this is only
safe for superblocks with lazy sb accounting, but the latter is
required for v5 supers and the rmap feature depends on v5.

Using a mutex for "print this warning only once" is so overdesigned as
to be actively offensive to my sensitive stomach.
Just use "pr_info_once()" that already does this, although in a
(harmlessly) racy manner that can in theory cause the message to be
printed twice if more than one CPU races on that "is this the first
time" test.
[ If somebody really cares about that harmless data race (which sounds
very unlikely indeed), that person can trivially fix printk_once() by
using a simple atomic access, preferably with an optimistic non-atomic
test first before even bothering to treat the pointless "make sure it
is _really_ just once" case.
A mutex is most definitely never the right primitive to use for
something like this. ]
Yes, this is a small and meaningless detail in a code path that hardly
matters. But let's keep some code quality standards here, and not
accept outrageously bad code.
