* f2fs: optimize gc for better performanceJin Xu2013-09-053-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch improves the gc efficiency by optimizing the victim selection policy. With this optimization, the random re-write performance could increase up to 20%. For f2fs, when disk is in shortage of free spaces, gc will selects dirty segments and moves valid blocks around for making more space available. The gc cost of a segment is determined by the valid blocks in the segment. The less the valid blocks, the higher the efficiency. The ideal victim segment is the one that has the most garbage blocks. Currently, it searches up to 20 dirty segments for a victim segment. The selected victim is not likely the best victim for gc when there are much more dirty segments. Why not searching more dirty segments for a better victim? The cost of searching dirty segments is negligible in comparison to moving blocks. In this patch, it enlarges the MAX_VICTIM_SEARCH to 4096 to make the search more aggressively for a possible better victim. Since it also applies to victim selection for SSR, it will likely improve the SSR efficiency as well. The test case is simple. It creates as many files until the disk full. The size for each file is 32KB. Then it writes as many as 100000 records of 4KB size to random offsets of random files in sync mode. The testing was done on a 2GB partition of a SDHC card. Let's see the test result of f2fs without and with the patch. --------------------------------------- 2GB partition, SDHC create 52023 files of size 32768 bytes random re-write 100000 records of 4KB --------------------------------------- | file creation (s) | rewrite time (s) | gc count | gc garbage blocks | [no patch] 341 4227 1174 174840 [patched] 324 2958 645 106682 It's obvious that, with the patch, f2fs finishes the test in 20+% less time than without the patch. And internally it does much less gc with higher efficiency than before. Since the performance improvement is related to gc, it might not be so obvious for other tests that do not trigger gc as often as this one ( This is because f2fs selects dirty segments for SSR use most of the time when free space is in shortage). The well-known iozone test tool was not used for benchmarking the patch becuase it seems do not have a test case that performs random re-write on a full disk. This patch is the revised version based on the suggestion from Jaegeuk Kim.

* f2fs: merge more bios of node block writesJaegeuk Kim2013-09-051-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we experience bio traces as follows when running simple sequential write test. f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500104928, size = 4K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499922208, size = 368K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499914752, size = 140K -> total 512K The first one is to write an indirect node block, and the others are to write direct node blocks. The reason why there are two separate bios for direct node blocks is: 0. initial state ------------------ ------------------ | | |xxxxxxxx | ------------------ ------------------ 1. write 368K ------------------ ------------------ | | |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW| ------------------ ------------------ 2. write 140K ------------------ ------------------ |WWWWWWW | |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW| ------------------ ------------------ This is because f2fs_write_node_pages tries to write just 512K totally, so that we can lose the chance to merge more bios nicely. After this patch is applied, we can get the following bio traces. f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500103168, size = 8K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500111368, size = 4K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500107272, size = 512K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500108296, size = 512K f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500109320, size = 500K And finally, we can improve the sequential write performance, from 458.775 MB/s to 479.945 MB/s on SSD.

* f2fs: avoid an overflow during utilization calculationJaegeuk Kim2013-09-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The current f2fs uses all the block counts with 32 bit numbers, which is able to cover about 15TB volume. But in calculation of utilization, f2fs multiplies the count by 100 which can induce overflow. This patch fixes this. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes a false-alaramed BUG_ON. The previous BUG_ON condition didn't cover the following true scenario. In f2fs_add_link, 1) get_new_data_page gives an uptodate page successfully, and then, 2) init_inode_metadata returns -ENOSPC. At this moment, a new clean data page is remained in the page cache, but its block address still indicates NEW_ADDR. After then, even if sync is called, this clean data page cannot be written to the disk due to the clean state. So this means that get_lock_data_page should make a new empty page when its block address is NEW_ADDR and its page is not uptodated. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In f2fs_write_inode, updating inode after f2fs_balance_fs is not a optimized way in the case that f2fs_gc is performed ahead. The inode page will be unnecessarily written out twice, one of which is in f2fs_gc->...->sync_node_pages and the other is in update_inode_page. Let's update the inode page in prior to f2fs_balance_fs to avoid this.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, f2fs_setxattr assigns i_xattr_nid in the inode page inconsistently. The scenario is: = Thread 1 = = Thread 2 = = fi->i_xattr_nid = = on-disk nid = f2fs_setxattr 0 0 new_node_page X 0 sync_inode_page X X checkpoint X X -. grab_cache_page X X | --> allocate a new xattr node block or -ENOSPC <----------------' At this moment, the checkpoint stores inconsistent data where the inode has i_xattr_nid but actual xattr node block is not allocated yet.

* f2fs: fix inconsistency between xattr node blocks and its inodeJaegeuk Kim2013-08-093-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously xattr node blocks are stored to the COLD_NODE log, which means that our roll-forward mechanism doesn't recover the xattr node blocks at all. Only the direct node blocks in the WARM_NODE log can be recovered. So, let's resolve the issue simply by conducting checkpoint during fsync when a file has a modified xattr node block. This approach is able to degrade the performance, but normally the checkpoint overhead is shown at the initial fsync call after the xattr entry changes. Once the checkpoint is done, no additional overhead would be occurred. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

* f2fs: fix a deadlock in fsyncJin Xu2013-08-065-9/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a deadlock bug that occurs quite often when there are concurrent write and fsync on a same file. Following is the simplified call trace when tasks get hung. fsync thread: - f2fs_sync_file ... - f2fs_write_data_pages ... - update_extent_cache ... - update_inode - wait_on_page_writeback bdi writeback thread - __writeback_single_inode - f2fs_write_data_pages - mutex_lock(sbi->writepages) The deadlock happens when the fsync thread waits on a inode page that has been added to the f2fs' cached bio sbi->bio[NODE], and unfortunately, no one else could be able to submit the cached bio to block layer for writeback. This is because the fsync thread already hold a sbi->fs_lock and the sbi->writepages lock, causing the bdi thread being blocked when attempt to write data pages for the same inode. At the same time, f2fs_gc thread does not notice the situation and could not help. Even the sync syscall gets blocked. To fix it, we could submit the cached bio first before waiting on a inode page that is being written back.

| * f2fs: fix to recover i_size from roll-forwardJaegeuk Kim2013-07-021-1/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If user requests many data writes and fsync together, the last updated i_size should be stored to the inode block consistently. But, previous write_end just marks the inode as dirty and doesn't update its metadata into its inode block. After that, fsync just writes the inode block with newly updated data index excluding inode metadata updates. So, this patch introduces write_end in which updates inode block too when the i_size is changed. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

| * f2fs: remove reusing any prefree segmentsJaegeuk Kim2013-07-021-55/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes check_prefree_segments initially designed to enhance the performance by narrowing the range of LBA usage across the whole block device. When allocating a new segment, previous f2fs tries to find proper prefree segments, and then, if finds a segment, it reuses the segment for further data or node block allocation. However, I found that this was totally wrong approach since the prefree segments have several data or node blocks that will be used by the roll-forward mechanism operated after sudden-power-off. Let's assume the following scenario. /* write 8MB with fsync */ for (i = 0; i < 2048; i++) { offset = i * 4096; write(fd, offset, 4KB); fsync(fd); } In this case, naive segment allocation sequence will be like: data segment: x, x+1, x+2, x+3 node segment: y, y+1, y+2, y+3. But, if we can reuse prefree segments, the sequence can be like: data segment: x, x+1, y, y+1 node segment: y, y+1, y+2, y+3. Because, y, y+1, and y+2 became prefree segments one by one, and those are reused by data allocation. After conducting this workload, we should consider how to recover the latest inode with its data. If we reuse the prefree segments such as y or y+1, we lost the old node blocks so that f2fs even cannot start roll-forward recovery. Therefore, I suggest that we should remove reusing prefree segments. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Optimize the while loop condition Since this condition will always be true and while loop will be terminated by the following condition in code: if (segno >= TOTAL_SEGS(sbi)) break; Hence we can replace the while loop condition with while(1) instead of always checking for segno to be less than Total segs. Also we do not need to use TOTAL_SEGS() everytime. We can store this value in a local variable since this value is constant.

| * f2fs: add remount_fs callback supportNamjae Jeon2013-06-171-82/+153

This function will help us to change the mount options specific to f2fs. Also modify the f2fs background_gc mount option, which will allow the user to dynamically trun on/off the garbage collection in f2fs based on the background_gc value. If background_gc=on, Garbage collection will be turned off & if background_gc=off, Garbage collection will be truned on. By default the garbage collection is on in f2fs. Change Log: v2: Incorporated the review comments by Gu Zheng. Removing the restore part for VFS flags Updating comments with proper flag conditions Display GC background option as ON/OFF Revised conditions to stop GC in case of remount v1: Initial changes for adding remount_fs callback support.

| * f2fs: recover wrong pino after checkpoint during fsyncJaegeuk Kim2013-06-146-9/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a file is linked, f2fs loose its parent inode number so that fsync calls for the linked file should do checkpoint all the time. But, if we can recover its parent inode number after the checkpoint, we can adjust roll-forward mechanism for the further fsync calls, which is able to improve the fsync performance significatly.
