xfs: force all buffers to be written during btree bulk load

xfs: force all buffers to be written during btree bulk load

commit 13ae04d8d45227c2ba51e188daf9fc13d08a1b12 upstream.

While stress-testing online repair of btrees, I noticed periodic
assertion failures from the buffer cache about buffers with incorrect
DELWRI_Q state. Looking further, I observed this race between the AIL
trying to write out a btree block and repair zapping a btree block after
the fact:

AIL: Repair0:

pin buffer X
delwri_queue:
set DELWRI_Q
add to delwri list

stale buf X:
clear DELWRI_Q
does not clear b_list
free space X
commit

delwri_submit # oops

Worse yet, I discovered that running the same repair over and over in a
tight loop can result in a second race that cause data integrity
problems with the repair:

AIL: Repair0: Repair1:

pin buffer X
delwri_queue:
set DELWRI_Q
add to delwri list

stale buf X:
clear DELWRI_Q
does not clear b_list
free space X
commit

find free space X
get buffer
rewrite buffer
delwri_queue:
set DELWRI_Q
already on a list, do not add
commit

BAD: committed tree root before all blocks written

delwri_submit # too late now

I traced this to my own misunderstanding of how the delwri lists work,
particularly with regards to the AIL's buffer list. If a buffer is
logged and committed, the buffer can end up on that AIL buffer list. If
btree repairs are run twice in rapid succession, it's possible that the
first repair will invalidate the buffer and free it before the next time
the AIL wakes up. Marking the buffer stale clears DELWRI_Q from the
buffer state without removing the buffer from its delwri list. The
buffer doesn't know which list it's on, so it cannot know which lock to
take to protect the list for a removal.

If the second repair allocates the same block, it will then recycle the
buffer to start writing the new btree block. Meanwhile, if the AIL
wakes up and walks the buffer list, it will ignore the buffer because it
can't lock it, and go back to sleep.

When the second repair calls delwri_queue to put the buffer on the
list of buffers to write before committing the new btree, it will set
DELWRI_Q again, but since the buffer hasn't been removed from the AIL's
buffer list, it won't add it to the bulkload buffer's list.

This is incorrect, because the bulkload caller relies on delwri_submit
to ensure that all the buffers have been sent to disk /before/
committing the new btree root pointer. This ordering requirement is
required for data consistency.

Worse, the AIL won't clear DELWRI_Q from the buffer when it does finally
drop it, so the next thread to walk through the btree will trip over a
debug assertion on that flag.

To fix this, create a new function that waits for the buffer to be
removed from any other delwri lists before adding the buffer to the
caller's delwri list. By waiting for the buffer to clear both the
delwri list and any potential delwri wait list, we can be sure that
repair will initiate writes of all buffers and report all write errors
back to userspace instead of committing the new structure.

xfs: allow scanning ranges of the buffer cache for live buffers

After an online repair, we need to invalidate buffers representing the
blocks from the old metadata that we're replacing. It's possible that
parts of a tree that were previously cached in memory are no longer
accessible due to media failure or other corruption on interior nodes,
so repair figures out the old blocks from the reverse mapping data and
scans the buffer cache directly.

In other words, online fsck needs to find all the live (i.e. non-stale)
buffers for a range of fsblocks so that it can invalidate them.

Unfortunately, the current buffer cache code triggers asserts if the
rhashtable lookup finds a non-stale buffer of a different length than
the key we searched for. For regular operation this is desirable, but
for this repair procedure, we don't care since we're going to forcibly
stale the buffer anyway. Add an internal lookup flag to avoid the
assert. Skip buffers that are already XBF_STALE.

xfs: xfs_buf cache destroy isn't RCU safe

Darrick and Sachin Sant reported that xfs/435 and xfs/436 would
report an non-empty xfs_buf slab on module remove. This isn't easily
to reproduce, but is clearly a side effect of converting the buffer
caceh to RUC freeing and lockless lookups. Sachin bisected and
Darrick hit it when testing the patchset directly.

Turns out that the xfs_buf slab is not destroyed when all the other
XFS slab caches are destroyed. Instead, it's got it's own little
wrapper function that gets called separately, and so it doesn't have
an rcu_barrier() call in it that is needed to drain all the rcu
callbacks before the slab is destroyed.

Fix it by removing the xfs_buf_init/terminate wrappers that just
allocate and destroy the xfs_buf slab, and move them to the same
place that all the other slab caches are set up and destroyed.

xfs: lockless buffer lookup

Now that we have a standalone fast path for buffer lookup, we can
easily convert it to use rcu lookups. When we continually hammer the
buffer cache with trylock lookups, we end up with a huge amount of
lock contention on the per-ag buffer hash locks:

- 92.71% 0.05% [kernel] [k] xfs_inodegc_worker
- 92.67% xfs_inodegc_worker
- 92.13% xfs_inode_unlink
- 91.52% xfs_inactive_ifree
- 85.63% xfs_read_agi
- 85.61% xfs_trans_read_buf_map
- 85.59% xfs_buf_read_map
- xfs_buf_get_map
- 85.55% xfs_buf_find
- 72.87% _raw_spin_lock
- do_raw_spin_lock
71.86% __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
- 8.74% xfs_buf_rele
- 7.88% _raw_spin_lock
- 7.88% do_raw_spin_lock
7.63% __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
- 1.70% xfs_buf_trylock
- 1.68% down_trylock
- 1.41% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
- 1.39% do_raw_spin_lock
__pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
- 0.76% _raw_spin_unlock
0.75% do_raw_spin_unlock

This is basically hammering the pag->pag_buf_lock from lots of CPUs
doing trylocks at the same time. Most of the buffer trylock
operations ultimately fail after we've done the lookup, so we're
really hammering the buf hash lock whilst making no progress.

We can also see significant spinlock traffic on the same lock just
under normal operation when lots of tasks are accessing metadata
from the same AG, so let's avoid all this by converting the lookup
fast path to leverages the rhashtable's ability to do rcu protected
lookups.

We avoid races with the buffer release path by using
atomic_inc_not_zero() on the buffer hold count. Any buffer that is
in the LRU will have a non-zero count, thereby allowing the lockless
fast path to be taken in most cache hit situations. If the buffer
hold count is zero, then it is likely going through the release path
so in that case we fall back to the existing lookup miss slow path.

The slow path will then do an atomic lookup and insert under the
buffer hash lock and hence serialise correctly against buffer
release freeing the buffer.

The use of rcu protected lookups means that buffer handles now need
to be freed by RCU callbacks (same as inodes). We still free the
buffer pages before the RCU callback - we won't be trying to access
them at all on a buffer that has zero references - but we need the
buffer handle itself to be present for the entire rcu protected read
side to detect a zero hold count correctly.

xfs: remove kmem_alloc_io()

Since commit 59bb47985c1d ("mm, sl[aou]b: guarantee natural alignment
for kmalloc(power-of-two)"), the core slab code now guarantees slab
alignment in all situations sufficient for IO purposes (i.e. minimum
of 512 byte alignment of >= 512 byte sized heap allocations) we no
longer need the workaround in the XFS code to provide this
guarantee.

Replace the use of kmem_alloc_io() with kmem_alloc() or
kmem_alloc_large() appropriately, and remove the kmem_alloc_io()
interface altogether.

xfs: don't drain buffer lru on freeze and read-only remount

xfs_buftarg_drain() is called from xfs_log_quiesce() to ensure the
buffer cache is reclaimed during unmount. xfs_log_quiesce() is also
called from xfs_quiesce_attr(), however, which means that cache
state is completely drained for filesystem freeze and read-only
remount. While technically harmless, this is unnecessarily
heavyweight. Both freeze and read-only mounts allow reads and thus
allow population of the buffer cache. Therefore, the transitional
sequence in either case really only needs to quiesce outstanding
writes to return the filesystem in a generally read-only state.

Additionally, some users have reported that attempts to freeze a
filesystem concurrent with a read-heavy workload causes the freeze
process to stall for a significant amount of time. This occurs
because, as mentioned above, the read workload repopulates the
buffer LRU while the freeze task attempts to drain it.

To improve this situation, replace the drain in xfs_log_quiesce()
with a buffer I/O quiesce and lift the drain into the unmount path.
This removes buffer LRU reclaim from freeze and read-only [re]mount,
but ensures the LRU is still drained before the filesystem unmounts.

All unmarked dirty buffers should be in the AIL and have log items
attached to them. Hence when they are written, we will run a
callback to remove the item from the AIL if appropriate. Now that
we've handled inode and dquot buffers, all remaining calls are to
xfs_buf_iodone() and so we can hard code this rather than use an
indirect call.

xfs: mark inode buffers in cache

Inode buffers always have write IO callbacks, so by marking them
directly we can avoid needing to attach ->b_iodone functions to
them. This avoids an indirect call, and makes future modifications
much simpler.

While this is largely a refactor of existing functionality, we
broaden the scope of the flag to beyond where inodes are explicitly
attached because future changes need to know what type of log items
are attached to the buffer. Adding this buffer flag may invoke the
inode iodone callback in cases where it wouldn't have been
previously, but this is not a functional change because the callback
is identical to the normal buffer write iodone callback when inodes
are not attached.

xfs: refactor ratelimited buffer error messages into helper

XFS has some inconsistent log message rate limiting with respect to
buffer alerts. The metadata I/O error notification uses the generic
ratelimited alert, the buffer push code uses a custom rate limit and
the similar quiesce time failure checks are not rate limited at all
(when they should be).

The custom rate limit defined in the buf item code is specifically
crafted for buffer alerts. It is more aggressive than generic rate
limiting code because it must accommodate a high frequency of I/O
error events in a relative short timeframe.

Factor out the custom rate limit state from the buf item code into a
per-buftarg rate limit so various alerts are limited based on the
target. Define a buffer alert helper function and use it for the
buffer alerts that are already ratelimited.
