nilfs2: use time64_t internally

2018-02-07T02:32:45Z

The superblock and segment timestamps are used only internally in nilfs2 and can be read out using sysfs. Since we are using the old 'get_seconds()' interface and store the data as timestamps, the behavior differs slightly between 64-bit and 32-bit kernels, the latter will show incorrect timestamps after 2038 in sysfs, and presumably fail completely in 2106 as comparisons go wrong. This changes nilfs2 to use time64_t with ktime_get_real_seconds() to handle timestamps, making the behavior consistent and correct on both 32-bit and 64-bit machines. The on-disk format already uses 64-bit timestamps, so nothing changes there.

fs/nilfs2: convert timers to use timer_setup()

2017-11-18T00:10:03Z

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer() to pass the timer pointer explicitly. This requires adding a pointer to hold the timer's target task, as the lifetime of sc_task doesn't appear to match the timer's task.

nilfs2: move ioctl interface and disk layout to uapi separately

2016-08-02T23:35:21Z

The header file "include/linux/nilfs2_fs.h" is composed of parts for ioctl and disk format, and both are intended to be shared with user space programs. This moves them to the uapi directory "include/uapi/linux" splitting the file to "nilfs2_api.h" and "nilfs2_ondisk.h". The following minor changes are accompanied by this migration: - nilfs_direct_node struct in nilfs2/direct.h is converged to nilfs2_ondisk.h because it's an on-disk structure. - inline functions nilfs_rec_len_from_disk() and nilfs_rec_len_to_disk() are moved to nilfs2/dir.c.

nilfs2: add a tracepoint for tracking stage transition of segment construction

2015-11-07T01:50:42Z

This patch adds a tracepoint for tracking stage transition of block collection in segment construction. With the tracepoint, we can analysis the behavior of segment construction in depth. It would be useful for bottleneck detection and debugging, etc. The tracepoint is created with the standard trace API of linux (like ext3, ext4, f2fs and btrfs). So we can analysis with existing tools easily. Of course, more detailed analysis will be possible if we can create nilfs specific analysis tools. Below is an example of event dump with Brendan Gregg's perf-tools (https://github.com/brendangregg/perf-tools). Time consumption between each stage can be obtained. $ sudo bin/tpoint nilfs2:nilfs2_collection_stage_transition Tracing nilfs2:nilfs2_collection_stage_transition.

nilfs2: fix deadlock of segment constructor over I_SYNC flag

2015-02-05T21:35:29Z

Nilfs2 eventually hangs in a stress test with fsstress program. This issue was caused by the following deadlock over I_SYNC flag between nilfs_segctor_thread() and writeback_sb_inodes(): nilfs_segctor_thread() nilfs_segctor_thread_construct() nilfs_segctor_unlock() nilfs_dispose_list() iput() iput_final() evict() inode_wait_for_writeback() * wait for I_SYNC flag writeback_sb_inodes() * set I_SYNC flag on inode->i_state __writeback_single_inode() do_writepages() nilfs_writepages() nilfs_construct_dsync_segment() nilfs_segctor_sync() * wait for completion of segment constructor inode_sync_complete() * clear I_SYNC flag after __writeback_single_inode() completed writeback_sb_inodes() calls do_writepages() for dirty inodes after setting I_SYNC flag on inode->i_state. do_writepages() in turn calls nilfs_writepages(), which can run segment constructor and wait for its completion. On the other hand, segment constructor calls iput(), which can call evict() and wait for the I_SYNC flag on inode_wait_for_writeback(). Since segment constructor doesn't know when I_SYNC will be set, it cannot know whether iput() will block or not unless inode->i_nlink has a non-zero count. We can prevent evict() from being called in iput() by implementing sop->drop_inode(), but it's not preferable to leave inodes with i_nlink == 0 for long periods because it even defers file truncation and inode deallocation. So, this instead resolves the deadlock by calling iput() asynchronously with a workqueue for inodes with i_nlink == 0.
