500e3b963d jbd2: make jbd2_journal_get_max_txn_bufs() internal
commit 4aa99c71e42ad60178c1154ec24e3df9c684fb67 upstream.

There's no reason to have jbd2_journal_get_max_txn_bufs() public
function. Currently all users are internal and can use
journal->j_max_transaction_buffers instead. This saves some unnecessary
recomputations of the limit as a bonus which becomes important as this
function gets more complex in the following patch.

Analyzed informations from vmcore as follows:
(1) There are about 5k+ jbd2_inode in 'commit_transaction->t_inode_list';
(2) Now is processing the 855th jbd2_inode;
(3) JBD2 task has TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag;
(4) There's no pags in address_space around the 855th jbd2_inode;
(5) There are some process is doing drop caches;
(6) Mounted with 'nodioread_nolock' option;
(7) 128 CPUs;

According to informations from vmcore we know 'journal->j_list_lock' spin lock
competition is fierce. So journal_finish_inode_data_buffers() maybe process
slowly. Theoretically, there is scheduling point in the filemap_fdatawait_range_keep_errors().
However, if inode's address_space has no pages which taged with PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK,
will not call cond_resched(). So may lead to soft lockup.
journal_finish_inode_data_buffers
  filemap_fdatawait_range_keep_errors
    __filemap_fdatawait_range
      while (index <= end)
        nr_pages = pagevec_lookup_range_tag(&pvec, mapping, &index, end, PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK);
        if (!nr_pages)
           break;    --> If 'nr_pages' is equal zero will break, then will not call cond_resched()
        for (i = 0; i < nr_pages; i++)
          wait_on_page_writeback(page);
        cond_resched();

To solve above issue, add scheduling point in the journal_finish_inode_data_buffers();

28c9fced8d jbd2: increase the journal IO's priority
[ Upstream commit 6a3afb6ac6dfab158ebdd4b87941178f58c8939f ]

Current jbd2 only add REQ_SYNC for descriptor block, metadata log
buffer, commit buffer and superblock buffer, the submitted IO could be
throttled by writeback throttle in block layer, that could lead to
priority inversion in some cases. The log IO looks like a kind of high
priority metadata IO, so it should not be throttled by WBT like QOS
policies in block layer, let's add REQ_SYNC | REQ_IDLE to exempt from
writeback throttle, and also add REQ_META together indicates it's a
metadata IO.

a89573ce4a jbd2: fix outstanding credits assert in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
We catch an assert problem in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() when
doing fsstress and request falut injection tests. The problem is
happened in a race condition between jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
and ext4_end_io_end(). Firstly, ext4_writepages() writeback dirty pages
and start reserved handle, and then the journal was aborted due to some
previous metadata IO error, jbd2_journal_abort() start to commit current
running transaction, the committing procedure could be raced by
ext4_end_io_end() and lead to subtract j_reserved_credits twice from
commit_transaction->t_outstanding_credits, finally the
t_outstanding_credits is mistakenly smaller than t_nr_buffers and
trigger assert.

kjournald2           kworker

jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
 write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);
 atomic_sub(j_reserved_credits, t_outstanding_credits); //sub once

     	             jbd2_journal_start_reserved()
     	              start_this_handle()  //detect aborted journal
     	              jbd2_journal_free_reserved()  //get running transaction
                       read_lock(&journal->j_state_lock)
     	                __jbd2_journal_unreserve_handle()
     	               atomic_sub(j_reserved_credits, t_outstanding_credits);
                       //sub again
                       read_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);

 journal->j_running_transaction = NULL;
 J_ASSERT(t_nr_buffers <= t_outstanding_credits) //bomb!!!

Fix this issue by using journal->j_state_lock to protect the subtraction
in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction().

After commit 96f1e09745, we no longer hold the j_state_lock while
iterating over the list of reserved handles in
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction().  This potentially allows the
journal_head to be freed by journal_unmap_buffer while the commit
codepath is also trying to free the BJ_Reserved buffers.  Keeping
j_state_lock held while trying extends hold time of the lock
minimally, and solves this issue.

2. task A get new handle for transaction n+1
3. task A do some ineligible actions and mark FC_INELIGIBLE
4. jbd complete transaction n and clean FC_INELIGIBLE
5. task A call fsync

In this case fast commit will not fallback to full commit and
transaction n+1 also not handled by jbd.

Make ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() also record transaction tid for
latest ineligible case, when call ext4_fc_cleanup() check
current transaction tid, if small than latest ineligible tid
do not clear the EXT4_MF_FC_INELIGIBLE.

number of blocks available for a transaction. The maximum number of
blocks available to a transaction is reduced by the number of fast
commit blocks. So, this patch renames j_maxlen to j_total_len to
better represent its intent. Also, it adds a function to calculate max
number of bufs available for a transaction.

342af94ec6 jbd2, ext4, ocfs2: introduce/use journal callbacks j_submit|finish_inode_data_buffers()
Introduce journal callbacks to allow different behaviors
for an inode in journal_submit|finish_inode_data_buffers().

The existing users of the current behavior (ext4, ocfs2)
are adapted to use the previously exported functions
that implement the current behavior.

Users are callers of jbd2_journal_inode_ranged_write|wait(),
which adds the inode to the transaction's inode list with
the JI_WRITE|WAIT_DATA flags. Only ext4 and ocfs2 in-tree.

Both CONFIG_EXT4_FS and CONFIG_OCSFS2_FS select CONFIG_JBD2,
which builds fs/jbd2/commit.c and journal.c that define and
export the functions, so we can call directly in ext4/ocfs2.

c96dceeabf jbd2: do not clear the BH_Mapped flag when forgetting a metadata buffer
Commit 904cdbd41d ("jbd2: clear dirty flag when revoking a buffer from
an older transaction") set the BH_Freed flag when forgetting a metadata
buffer which belongs to the committing transaction, it indicate the
committing process clear dirty bits when it is done with the buffer. But
it also clear the BH_Mapped flag at the same time, which may trigger
below NULL pointer oops when block_size < PAGE_SIZE.

*) Dir entry block bh1 and bh2 belongs to one page, and the bh2 has
   already been unmapped.

For the metadata buffer we forgetting, we should always keep the mapped
flag and clear the dirty flags is enough, so this patch pick out the
these buffers and keep their BH_Mapped flag.

There is no need to delay the clearing of b_modified flag to the
transaction committing time when unmapping the journalled buffer, so
just move it to the journal_unmap_buffer().
