jbd2: fix dbench4 performance regression for 'nobarrier' mounts

2017-05-20T12:31:00+00:00

commit 5052b069acf73866d00077d8bc49983c3ee903e5 upstream. Commit b685d3d65ac7 "block: treat REQ_FUA and REQ_PREFLUSH as synchronous" removed REQ_SYNC flag from WRITE_FUA implementation. Since JBD2 strips REQ_FUA and REQ_FLUSH flags from submitted IO when the filesystem is mounted with nobarrier mount option, journal superblock writes ended up being async writes after this patch and that caused heavy performance regression for dbench4 benchmark with high number of processes. In my test setup with HP RAID array with non-volatile write cache and 32 GB ram, dbench4 runs with 8 processes regressed by ~25%. Fix the problem by making sure journal superblock writes are always treated as synchronous since they generally block progress of the journalling machinery and thus the whole filesystem.

jbd2: don't leak memory if setting up journal fails

2017-03-30T07:44:09+00:00

commit cd9cb405e0b948363811dc74dbb2890f56f2cb87 upstream. In journal_init_common(), if we failed to allocate the j_wbuf array, or if we failed to create the buffer_head for the journal superblock, we leaked the memory allocated for the revocation tables. Fix this. Fixes: f0c9fd5458bacf7b12a9a579a727dc740cbe047e Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Reviewed-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

jbd2: don't leak modified metadata buffers on an aborted journal

2017-03-12T05:44:12+00:00

commit e112666b4959b25a8552d63bc564e1059be703e8 upstream. If the journal has been aborted, we shouldn't mark the underlying buffer head as dirty, since that will cause the metadata block to get modified. And if the journal has been aborted, we shouldn't allow this since it will almost certainly lead to a corrupted file system. Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Merge branch 'for-4.10/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2016-12-13T18:19:16+00:00

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially for cycles that end up being as busy as this one. The major parts of this pull request is: - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small private implementation instead of using the pig that is fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph. - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the writeback queue throttling code. - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me. - Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me. - Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes and Shaun. - Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef. - Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From Christoph. - A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue stopping and starting in blk-mq. - Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya. - Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias. - Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart. - A bunch of fixes from a whole slew of people, too many to name here" * 'for-4.10/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (182 commits) blk-stat: fix a few cases of missing batch flushing blk-flush: run the queue when inserting blk-mq flush elevator: make the rqhash helpers exported blk-mq: abstract out blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() helper blk-mq: add blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queue() block: improve handling of the magic discard payload blk-wbt: don't throttle discard or write zeroes nbd: use dev_err_ratelimited in io path nbd: reset the setup task for NBD_CLEAR_SOCK nvme-fabrics: Add FC LLDD loopback driver to test FC-NVME nvme-fabrics: Add target support for FC transport nvme-fabrics: Add host support for FC transport nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport LLDD api definitions nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport FC-NVME definitions nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport error codes to nvme.h Add type 0x28 NVME type code to scsi fc headers nvme-fabrics: patch target code in prep for FC transport support nvme-fabrics: set sqe.command_id in core not transports parser: add u64 number parser nvme-rdma: align to generic ib_event logging helper ...

block,fs: use REQ_* flags directly

2016-11-01T15:43:26+00:00

Remove the WRITE_* and READ_SYNC wrappers, and just use the flags directly. Where applicable this also drops usage of the bio_set_op_attrs wrapper. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

jbd2: fix incorrect unlock on j_list_lock

The mapping_set_error() helper sets the correct AS_ flag for the mapping so there is no reason to open code it. Use the helper directly.

jbd2: fix lockdep annotation in add_transaction_credits()

2016-09-22T15:44:06+00:00

Thomas has reported a lockdep splat hitting in add_transaction_credits(). The problem is that that function calls jbd2_might_wait_for_commit() while holding j_state_lock which is wrong (we do not really wait for transaction commit while holding that lock). Fix the problem by moving jbd2_might_wait_for_commit() into places where we are ready to wait for transaction commit and thus j_state_lock is unlocked.

jbd2: move more common code into journal_init_common()

2016-09-15T16:02:32+00:00

There are some repetitive code in jbd2_journal_init_dev() and jbd2_journal_init_inode(). So this patch moves the common code into journal_init_common() helper to simplify the code. And fix the coding style warnings reported by checkpatch.pl by the way. Signed-off-by: Geliang Tang Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Reviewed-by: Jan Kara
