023-08-10xfs: convert xfarray insertion sort to heapsort using scratchpad memoryDarrick J. Wong In the previous patch, we created a very basic quicksort implementation for xfile arrays. While the use of an alternate sorting algorithm to avoid quicksort recursion on very small subsets reduces the runtime modestly, we could do better than a load and store-heavy insertion sort, particularly since each load and store requires a page mapping lookup in the xfile. For a small increase in kernel memory requirements, we could instead bulk load the xfarray records into memory, use the kernel's existing heapsort implementation to sort the records, and bulk store the memory buffer back into the xfile. On the author's computer, this reduces the runtime by about 5% on a 500,000 element array. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Wong The btree bulk loading code requires that records be provided in the correct record sort order for the given btree type. In general, repair code cannot be required to collect records in order, and it is not feasible to insert new records in the middle of an array to maintain sort order. Implement a sorting algorithm so that we can sort the records just prior to bulk loading. In principle, an xfarray could consume many gigabytes of memory and its backing pages can be sent out to disk at any time. This means that we cannot map the entire array into memory at once, so we must find a way to divide the work into smaller portions (e.g. a page) that /can/ be mapped into memory. Quicksort seems like a reasonable fit for this purpose, since it uses a divide and conquer strategy to keep its average runtime logarithmic. The solution presented here is a port of the glibc implementation, which itself is derived from the median-of-three and tail call recursion strategies outlined by Sedgwick. Subsequent patches will optimize the implementation further by utilizing the kernel's heapsort on directly-mapped memory whenever possible, and improving the quicksort pivot selection algorithm to try to avoid O(n^2) collapses. Note: The sorting functionality gets its own patch because the basic big array mechanisms were plenty for a single code patch. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Wong Create a simple 'big array' data structure for storage of fixed-size metadata records that will be used to reconstruct a btree index. For repair operations, the most important operations are append, iterate, and sort. Earlier implementations of the big array used linked lists and suffered from severe problems -- pinning all records in kernel memory was not a good idea and frequently lead to OOM situations; random access was very inefficient; and record overhead for the lists was unacceptably high at 40-60%. Therefore, the big memory array relies on the 'xfile' abstraction, which creates a memfd file and stores the records in page cache pages. Since the memfd is created in tmpfs, the memory pages can be pushed out to disk if necessary and we have a built-in usage limit of 50% of physical memory. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
