H A Dbackref.h877c1476 Tue Oct 11 07:17:08 CDT 2022 Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com> btrfs: avoid duplicated resolution of indirect backrefs during fiemap

During fiemap, when determining if a data extent is shared or not, if we
don't find the extent is directly shared, then we need to determine if
it's shared through subtrees. For that we need to resolve the indirect
reference we found in order to figure out the path in the inode's fs tree,
which is a path starting at the fs tree's root node and going down to the
leaf that contains the file extent item that points to the data extent.
We then proceed to determine if any extent buffer in that path is shared
with other trees or not.

Currently whenever we find the data extent that a file extent item points
to is not directly shared, we always resolve the path in the fs tree, and
then check if any extent buffer in the path is shared. This is a lot of
work and when we have file extent items that belong to the same leaf, we
have the same path, so we only need to calculate it once.

This change does that, it keeps track of the current and previous leaf,
and when we find that a data extent is not directly shared, we try to
compute the fs tree path only once and then use it for every other file
extent item in the same leaf, using the existing cached path result for
the leaf as long as the cache results are valid.

This saves us from doing expensive b+tree searches in the fs tree of our
target inode, as well as other minor work.

The following test was run on a non-debug kernel (Debian's default kernel
config):

$ cat test-with-snapshots.sh
#!/bin/bash

DEV=/dev/sdi
MNT=/mnt/sdi

umount $DEV &> /dev/null
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV
# Use compression to quickly create files with a lot of extents
# (each with a size of 128K).
mount -o compress=lzo $DEV $MNT

# 40G gives 327680 extents, each with a size of 128K.
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xab -b 1M 0 40G" $MNT/foobar

# Add some more files to increase the size of the fs and extent
# trees (in the real world there's a lot of files and extents
# from other files).
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xcd -b 1M 0 20G" $MNT/file1
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xef -b 1M 0 20G" $MNT/file2
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0x73 -b 1M 0 20G" $MNT/file3

# Create a snapshot so all the extents become indirectly shared
# through subtrees, with a generation less than or equals to the
# generation used to create the snapshot.
btrfs subvolume snapshot -r $MNT $MNT/snap1

umount $MNT
mount -o compress=lzo $DEV $MNT

start=$(date +%s%N)
filefrag $MNT/foobar
end=$(date +%s%N)
dur=$(( (end - start) / 1000000 ))
echo "fiemap took $dur milliseconds (metadata not cached)"
echo

start=$(date +%s%N)
filefrag $MNT/foobar
end=$(date +%s%N)
dur=$(( (end - start) / 1000000 ))
echo "fiemap took $dur milliseconds (metadata cached)"

umount $MNT

Result before applying this patch:

(...)
/mnt/sdi/foobar: 327680 extents found
fiemap took 1204 milliseconds (metadata not cached)

/mnt/sdi/foobar: 327680 extents found
fiemap took 729 milliseconds (metadata cached)

Result after applying this patch:

(...)
/mnt/sdi/foobar: 327680 extents found
fiemap took 732 milliseconds (metadata not cached)

/mnt/sdi/foobar: 327680 extents found
fiemap took 421 milliseconds (metadata cached)

That's a -46.1% total reduction for the metadata not cached case, and
a -42.2% reduction for the cached metadata case.

The test is somewhat limited in the sense the gains may be higher in
practice, because in the test the filesystem is small, so we have small
fs and extent trees, plus there's no concurrent access to the trees as
well, therefore no lock contention there.
