2011-10-24exofs: Support for RAID5 read-4-write interface.Boaz Harrosh
The ore need suplied a r4w_get_page/r4w_put_page API from Filesystem so it can get cache pages to read-into when writing parial stripes. Also I commented out and NULLed the .writepage (singular) vector. Because it gives terrible write pattern to raid and is apparently not needed. Even in OOM conditions the system copes (even better) with out it. TODO: How to specify to write_cache_pages() to start or include a certain page? Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2011-10-14ore/exofs: Change ore_check_io APIBoaz Harrosh
Current ore_check_io API receives a residual pointer, to report partial IO. But it is actually not used, because in a multiple devices IO there is never a linearity in the IO failure. On the other hand if every failing device is reported through a received callback measures can be taken to handle only failed devices. One at a time. This will also be needed by the objects-layout-driver for it's error reporting facility. Exofs is not currently using the new information and keeps the old behaviour of failing the complete IO in case of an error. (No partial completion) TODO: Use an ore_check_io callback to set_page_error only the failing pages. And re-dirty write pages. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2011-10-14ore/exofs: Define new ore_verify_layoutBoaz Harrosh
All users of the ore will need to check if current code supports the given layout. For example RAID5/6 is not currently supported. So move all the checks from exofs/super.c to a new ore_verify_layout() to be used by ore users. Note that any new layout should be passed through the ore_verify_layout() because the ore engine will prepare and verify some internal members of ore_layout, and assumes it's called.

2011-10-14exofs: Support for short read/writesBoaz Harrosh
If at read/write_done the actual IO was shorter then requested, reported in returned ios->length. It is not an error. The reminder of the pages should just be unlocked but not marked uptodate or end_page_writeback. They will be re issued later by the VFS. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2011-10-14ore: Only IO one group at a time (API change)Boaz Harrosh
Usually a single IO is confined to one group of devices (group_width) and at the boundary of a raid group it can spill into a second group. Current code would allocate a full device_table size array at each io_state so it can comply to requests that span two groups. Needless to say that is very wasteful, specially when device_table count can get very large (hundreds even thousands), while a group_width is usually 8 or 10. * Change ore API to trim on IO that spans two raid groups. The user passes offset+length to ore_get_rw_state, the ore might trim on that length if spanning a group boundary. The user must check ios->length or ios->nrpages to see how much IO will be preformed. It is the responsibility of the user to re-issue the reminder of the IO. * Modify exofs To copy spilled pages on to the next IO. This means one last kick is needed after all coalescing of pages is done. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2011-10-03exofs: Rename struct ore_components comps => ocBoaz Harrosh

2011-08-06exofs: Rename raid engine from exofs/ios.c => oreBoaz Harrosh
ORE stands for "Objects Raid Engine" This patch is a mechanical rename of everything that was in ios.c and its API declaration to an ore.c and an osd_ore.h header. The ore engine will later be used by the pnfs objects layout driver. * File ios.c => ore.c * Declaration of types and API are moved from exofs.h to a new osd_ore.h * All used types are prefixed by ore_ from their exofs_ name. * Shift includes from exofs.h to osd_ore.h so osd_ore.h is independent, include it from exofs.h. Other than a pure rename there are no other changes. Next patch will move the ore into it's own module and will export the API to be used by exofs and later the layout driver Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2011-08-06exofs: ios: Move to a per inode components & device-tableBoaz Harrosh
Exofs raid engine was saving on memory space by having a single layout-info, single pid, and a single device-table, global to the filesystem. Then passing a credential and object_id info at the io_state level, private for each inode. It would also devise this contraption of rotating the device table view for each inode->ino to spread out the device usage. This is not compatible with the pnfs-objects standard, demanding that each inode can have it's own layout-info, device-table, and each object component it's own pid, oid and creds. So: Bring exofs raid engine to be usable for generic pnfs-objects use by: * Define an exofs_comp structure that holds obj_id and credential info. * Break up exofs_layout struct to an exofs_components structure that holds a possible array of exofs_comp and the array of devices + the size of the arrays. * Add a "comps" parameter to get_io_state() that specifies the ids creds and device array to use for each IO. This enables to keep the layout global, but the device-table view, creds and IDs at the inode level. It only adds two 64bit to each inode, since some of these members already existed in another form. * ios raid engine now access layout-info and comps-info through the passed pointers. Everything is pre-prepared by caller for generic access of these structures and arrays. At the exofs Level: * Super block holds an exofs_components struct that holds the device array, previously in layout. The devices there are in device-table order. The device-array is twice bigger and repeats the device-table twice so now each inode's device array can point to a random device and have a round-robin view of the table, making it compatible to previous exofs versions. * Each inode has an exofs_components struct that is initialized at load time, with it's own view of the device table IDs and creds. When doing IO this gets passed to the io_state together with the layout. While preforming this change. Bugs where found where credentials with the wrong IDs where used to access the different SB objects (super.c). As well as some dead code. It was never noticed because the target we use does not check the credentials. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2011-08-06exofs: Move exofs specific osd operations out of ios.cBoaz Harrosh

2011-08-06exofs: Add offset/length to exofs_get_io_stateBoaz Harrosh
In future raid code we will need to know the IO offset/length and if it's a read or write to determine some of the array sizes we'll need. So add a new exofs_get_rw_state() API for use when writeing/reading. All other simple cases are left using the old way. The major change to this is that now we need to call exofs_get_io_state later at inode.c::read_exec and inode.c::write_exec when we actually know these things. So this patch is kept separate so I can test things apart from other changes. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

2011-03-15exofs: Write sbi->s_nextid as part of the Create commandBoaz Harrosh
Before when creating a new inode, we'd set the sb->s_dirt flag, and sometime later the system would write out s_nextid as part of the sb_info. Also on inode sync we would force the sb sync as well. Define the s_nextid as a new partition attribute and set it every time we create a new object. At mount we read it from it's new place. We now never set sb->s_dirt anywhere in exofs. write_super is actually never called. The call to exofs_write_super from exofs_put_super is also removed because the VFS always calls ->sync_fs before calling ->put_super twice. To stay backward-and-forward compatible we also write the old s_nextid in the super_block object at unmount, and support zero length attribute on mount. This also fixes a BUG where in layouts when group_width was not a divisor of EXOFS_SUPER_ID (0x10000) the s_nextid was not read from the device it was written to. Because of the sliding window layout trick, and because the read was always done from the 0 device but the write was done via the raid engine that might slide the device view. Now we read and write through the raid engine. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

2011-03-15exofs: simple fsync race fixNick Piggin
It is incorrect to test inode dirty bits without participating in the inode writeback protocol. Inode writeback sets I_SYNC and clears I_DIRTY_?, then writes out the particular bits, then clears I_SYNC when it is done. BTW. it may not completely write all pages out, so I_DIRTY_PAGES would get set again. This is a standard pattern used throughout the kernel's writeback caches (I_SYNC ~= I_WRITEBACK, if that makes it clearer). And so it is not possible to determine an inode's dirty status just by checking I_DIRTY bits. Especially not for the purpose of data integrity syncs. Missing the check for these bits means that fsync can complete while writeback to the inode is underway. Inode writeback functions get this right, so call into them rather than try to shortcut things by testing dirty state improperly.

This reverts commit 115e19c53501edc11f730191f7f047736815ae3d. Apparently setting inode->bdi to one's own sb->s_bdi stops VFS from sending *read-aheads*. This problem was bisected to this commit. A revert fixes it. I'll investigate farther why is this happening for the next Kernel, but for now a revert.

2010-10-25exofs: Remove inode->i_count manipulation in exofs_new_inodeBoaz Harrosh
exofs_new_inode() was incrementing the inode->i_count and decrementing it in create_done(), in a bad attempt to make sure the inode will still be there when the asynchronous create_done() finally arrives. This was very stupid because iput() was not called, and if it was actually needed, it would leak the inode. However all this is not needed, because at exofs_evict_inode() we already wait for create_done() by waiting for the object_created event. Therefore remove the superfluous ref counting and just Thicken the comment at exofs_evict_inode() a bit. While at it change places that open coded wait_obj_created() to call the already available wrapper.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-02-28exofs: Error recovery if object is missing from storageBoaz Harrosh
If an object is referenced by a directory but does not exist on a target, it is a very serious corruption that means: 1. Either a power failure with very slim chance of it happening. Because the directory update is always submitted much after object creation, but if a directory is written to one device and the object creation to another it might theoretically happen. 2. It only ever happened to me while developing with BUGs causing file corruption. Crashes could also cause it but they are more like case 1. In any way the object does not exist, so data is surely lost. If there is a mix-up in the obj-id or data-map, then lost objects can be salvaged by off-line fsck. The only recoverable information is the directory name. By letting it appear as a regular empty file, with date==0 (1970 Jan 1st) ownership to root, we enable recovery of the only useful information. And also enable deletion or over-write. I can see how this can hurt. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

(Once I decide where to put the common code) After RAID0 patch the outer (input) bio was never used as a bio, but was simply a page carrier into the raid engine.

2010-02-28exofs: RAID0 supportBoaz Harrosh
We now support striping over mirror devices. Including variable sized stripe_unit. Some limits: * stripe_unit must be a multiple of PAGE_SIZE * stripe_unit * stripe_count is maximum upto 32-bit (4Gb) Tested RAID0 over mirrors, RAID0 only, mirrors only. All check. Design notes: * I'm not using a vectored raid-engine mechanism yet. Following the pnfs-objects-layout data-map structure, "Mirror" is just a private case of "group_width" == 1, and RAID0 is a private case of "Mirrors" == 1. The performance lose of the general case over the particular special case optimization is totally negligible, also considering the extra code size. * In general I added a prepare_stripes() stage that divides the to-be-io pages to the participating devices, the previous exofs_ios_write/read, now becomes _write/read_mirrors and a new write/read upper layer loops on all devices calling _write/read_mirrors. Effectively the prepare_stripes stage is the all secret. Also truncate need fixing to accommodate for striping. * In a RAID0 arrangement, in a regular usage scenario, if all inode layouts will start at the same device, the small files fill up the first device and the later devices stay empty, the farther the device the emptier it is. To fix that, each inode will start at a different stripe_unit, according to it's obj_id modulus number-of-stripe-units. And will then span all stripe-units in the same incrementing order wrapping back to the beginning of the device table. We call it a stripe-units moving window. Special consideration was taken to keep all devices in a mirror arrangement identical. So a broken osd-device could just be cloned from one of the mirrors and no FS scrubbing is needed. (We do that by rotating stripe-unit at a time and not a single device at a time.) TODO: We no longer verify object_length == inode->i_size in exofs_iget. (since i_size is stripped on multiple objects now). I should introduce a multiple-device attribute reading, and use it in exofs_iget. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2010-02-28exofs: Define on-disk per-inode optional layout attributeBoaz Harrosh
* Layouts describe the way a file is spread on multiple devices. The layout information is stored in the objects attribute introduced in this patch. * There can be multiple generating function for the layout. Currently defined: - No attribute present - use below moving-window on global device table, all devices. (This is the only one currently used in exofs) - an obj_id generated moving window - the obj_id is a randomizing factor in the otherwise global map layout. - An explicit layout stored, including a data_map and a device index list. - More might be defined in future ... * There are two attributes defined of the same structure: A-data-files-layout - This layout is used by data-files. If present at a directory, all files of that directory will be created with this layout. A-meta-data-layout - This layout is used by a directory and other meta-data information. Also inherited at creation of subdirectories. * At creation time inodes are created with the layout specified above. A usermode utility may change the creation layout on a give directory or file. Which in the case of directories, will also apply to newly created files/subdirectories, children of that directory. In the simple unaltered case of a newly created exofs, no layout attributes are present, and all layouts adhere to the layout specified at the device-table. * In case of a future file system loaded in an old exofs-driver. At iget(), the generating_function is inspected and if not supported will return an IO error to the application and the inode will not be loaded. So not to damage any data. Note: After this patch we do not yet support any type of layout only the RAID0 patch that enables striping at the super-block level will add support for RAID0 layouts above. This way we are past and future compatible and fully bisectable. * Access to the device table is done by an accessor since it will change according to above information.

2010-02-28exofs: Move layout related members to a layout structureBoaz Harrosh
* Abstract away those members in exofs_sb_info that are related/needed by a layout into a new exofs_layout structure. Embed it in exofs_sb_info. * At exofs_io_state receive/keep a pointer to an exofs_layout. No need for an exofs_sb_info pointer, all we need is at exofs_layout. * Change any usage of above exofs_sb_info members to their new name. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

2010-01-05exofs: simple_write_end does not mark_inode_dirtyBoaz Harrosh
exofs uses simple_write_end() for it's .write_end handler. But it is not enough because simple_write_end() does not call mark_inode_dirty() when it extends i_size. So even if we do call mark_inode_dirty at beginning of write out, with a very long IO and a saturated system we might get the .write_inode() called while still extend-writing to file and miss out on the last i_size updates. So override .write_end, call simple_write_end(), and afterwords if i_size was changed call mark_inode_dirty(). It stands to logic that since simple_write_end() was the one extending i_size it should also call mark_inode_dirty(). But it looks like all users of simple_write_end() are memory-bound pseudo filesystems, who could careless about mark_inode_dirty(). I might submit a warning-comment patch to simple_write_end() in future. CC: Stable <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2009-12-10exofs: Multi-device mirror supportBoaz Harrosh
This patch changes on-disk format, it is accompanied with a parallel patch to mkfs.exofs that enables multi-device capabilities. After this patch, old exofs will refuse to mount a new formatted FS and new exofs will refuse an old format. This is done by moving the magic field offset inside the FSCB. A new FSCB *version* field was added. In the future, exofs will refuse to mount unmatched FSCB version. To up-grade or down-grade an exofs one must use mkfs.exofs --upgrade option before mounting. Introduced, a new object that contains a *device-table*. This object contains the default *data-map* and a linear array of devices information, which identifies the devices used in the filesystem. This object is only written to offline by mkfs.exofs. This is why it is kept separate from the FSCB, since the later is written to while mounted. Same partition number, same object number is used on all devices only the device varies. * define the new format, then load the device table on mount time make sure every thing is supported. * Change I/O engine to now support Mirror IO, .i.e write same data to multiple devices, read from a random device to spread the read-load from multiple clients (TODO: stripe read) Implementation notes: A few points introduced in previous patch should be mentioned here: * Special care was made so absolutlly all operation that have any chance of failing are done before any osd-request is executed. This is to minimize the need for a data consistency recovery, to only real IO errors. * Each IO state has a kref. It starts at 1, any osd-request executed will increment the kref, finally when all are executed the first ref is dropped. At IO-done, each request completion decrements the kref, the last one to return executes the internal _last_io() routine. _last_io() will call the registered io_state_done. On sync mode a caller does not supply a done method, indicating a synchronous request, the caller is put to sleep and a special io_state_done is registered that will awaken the caller. Though also in sync mode all operations are executed in parallel. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
2009-12-10exofs: Move all operations to an io_engineBoaz Harrosh
In anticipation for multi-device operations, we separate osd operations into an abstract I/O API. Currently only one device is used but later when adding more devices, we will drive all devices in parallel according to a "data_map" that describes how data is arranged on multiple devices. The file system level operates, like before, as if there is one object (inode-number) and an i_size. The io engine will split this to the same object-number but on multiple device. At first we introduce Mirror (raid 1) layout. But at the final outcome we intend to fully implement the pNFS-Objects data-map, including raid 0,4,5,6 over mirrored devices, over multiple device-groups. And more. See: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-nfsv4-pnfs-obj-12 * Define an io_state based API for accessing osd storage devices in an abstract way. Usage: First a caller allocates an io state with: exofs_get_io_state(struct exofs_sb_info *sbi, struct exofs_io_state** ios); Then calles one of: exofs_sbi_create(struct exofs_io_state *ios); exofs_sbi_remove(struct exofs_io_state *ios); exofs_sbi_write(struct exofs_io_state *ios); exofs_sbi_read(struct exofs_io_state *ios); exofs_oi_truncate(struct exofs_i_info *oi, u64 new_len); And when done exofs_put_io_state(struct exofs_io_state *ios); * Convert all source files to use this new API * Convert from bio_alloc to bio_kmalloc * In io engine we make use of the now fixed osd_req_decode_sense There are no functional changes or on disk additions after this patch.

2009-06-10[SCSI] libosd: osd_req_{read,write} takes a length parameterBoaz Harrosh
For supporting of chained-bios we can not inspect the first bio only, as before. Caller shall pass the total length of the request, ie. sum_bytes(bio-chain). Also since the bio might be a chain we don't set it's direction on behalf of it's callers. The bio direction should be properly set prior to this call. So fix a couple of write users that now need to set the bio direction properly [In this patch I change both library code and user sites at exofs, to make it easy on integration. It should be submitted via James's scsi-misc tree.] Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> CC: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>
