btrfs: make smaller extents more likely to go into bitmaps
It's less than ideal for small extents to eat into our extent budget, so force extents <= 32KB into the bitmaps save for the first handful. Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com>

btrfs: increase the metadata allowance for the free_space_cache
Currently, there is no way for the free space cache to recover from being serviced by purely bitmaps because the extent threshold is set to 0 in recalculate_thresholds() when we surpass the metadata allowance. This adds a recovery mechanism by keeping large extents out of the bitmaps and increases the metadata upper bound to 64KB. The recovery mechanism bypasses this upper bound, thus making it a soft upper bound. But, with the bypass being 1MB or greater, it shouldn't add unbounded overhead.

btrfs: only keep track of data extents for async discard
As mentioned earlier, discarding data can be done either by issuing an explicit discard or implicitly by reusing the LBA. Metadata chunks see much more frequent reuse due to well it being metadata. So instead of explicitly discarding metadata blocks, just leave them be and let the latter implicit discarding be done for them.

btrfs: have multiple discard lists
Non-block group destruction discarding currently only had a single list with no minimum discard length. This can lead to caravaning more meaningful discards behind a heavily fragmented block group. This adds support for multiple lists with minimum discard lengths to prevent the caravan effect. We promote block groups back up when we exceed the BTRFS_ASYNC_DISCARD_MAX_FILTER size, currently we support only 2 lists with filters of 1MB and 32KB respectively.

btrfs: make UUID/debug have its own kobject
Btrfs only allowed attributes to be exposed in debug/. Let's let other groups be created by making debug its own kobject. This also makes the per-fs debug options separate from the global features mount attributes. This seems to be needed as sysfs_create_files() requires const struct attribute * while sysfs_create_group() can take struct attribute *. This seems nicer as per file system, you'll probably use to_fs_info(). Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com>

btrfs: discard one region at a time in async discard
The prior two patches added discarding via a background workqueue. This just piggybacked off of the fstrim code to trim the whole block at once. Well inevitably this is worse performance wise and will aggressively overtrim. But it was nice to plumb the other infrastructure to keep the patches easier to review. This adds the real goal of this series which is discarding slowly (ie a slow long running fstrim). The discarding is split into two phases, extents and then bitmaps. The reason for this is two fold. First, the bitmap regions overlap the extent regions. Second, discarding the extents first will let the newly trimmed bitmaps have the highest chance of coalescing when being readded to the free space cache.

btrfs: handle empty block_group removal
block_group removal is a little tricky. It can race with the extent allocator, the cleaner thread, and balancing. The current path is for a block_group to be added to the unused_bgs list. Then, when the cleaner thread comes around, it starts a transaction and then proceeds with removing the block_group. Extents that are pinned are subsequently removed from the pinned trees and then eventually a discard is issued for the entire block_group. Async discard introduces another player into the game, the discard workqueue. While it has none of the racing issues, the new problem is ensuring we don't leave free space untrimmed prior to forgetting the block_group. This is handled by placing fully free block_groups on a separate discard queue. This is necessary to maintain discarding order as in the future we will slowly trim even fully free block_groups. The ordering helps us make progress on the same block_group rather than say the last fully freed block_group or needing to search through the fully freed block groups at the beginning of a list and insert after. The new order of events is a fully freed block group gets placed on the unused discard queue first. Once it's processed, it will be placed on the unusued_bgs list and then the original sequence of events will happen, just without the final whole block_group discard. The mount flags can change when processing unused_bgs, so when flipping from DISCARD to DISCARD_ASYNC, the unused_bgs must be punted to the discard_list to be trimmed. If we flip off DISCARD_ASYNC, we punt free block groups on the discard_list to the unused_bg queue which will do the final discard for us.

btrfs: add the beginning of async discard, discard workqueue
When discard is enabled, everytime a pinned extent is released back to the block_group's free space cache, a discard is issued for the extent. This is an overeager approach when it comes to discarding and helping the SSD maintain enough free space to prevent severe garbage collection situations. This adds the beginning of async discard. Instead of issuing a discard prior to returning it to the free space, it is just marked as untrimmed. The block_group is then added to a LRU which then feeds into a workqueue to issue discards at a much slower rate. Full discarding of unused block groups is still done and will be address in a future patch in this series. For now, we don't persist the discard state of extents and bitmaps. Therefore, our failure recovery mode will be to consider extents untrimmed. This lets us handle failure and unmounting as one in the same. On a number of Facebook webservers, I collected data every minute accounting the time we spent in btrfs_finish_extent_commit() (col. 1) and in btrfs_commit_transaction() (col. 2). btrfs_finish_extent_commit() is where we discard extents synchronously before returning them to the free space cache. discard=sync: p99 total per minute p99 total per minute Drive | extent_commit() (ms) | commit_trans() (ms) --------------------------------------------------------------- Drive A | 434 | 1170 Drive B | 880 | 2330 Drive C | 2943 | 3920 Drive D | 4763 | 5701 discard=async: p99 total per minute p99 total per minute Drive | extent_commit() (ms) | commit_trans() (ms) -------------------------------------------------------------- Drive A | 134 | 956 Drive B | 64 | 1972 Drive C | 59 | 1032 Drive D | 62 | 1200 While it's not great that the stats are cumulative over 1m, all of these servers are running the same workload and and the delta between the two are substantial. We are spending significantly less time in btrfs_finish_extent_commit() which is responsible for discarding.

btrfs: keep track of cleanliness of the bitmap
There is a cap in btrfs in the amount of free extents that a block group can have. When it surpasses that threshold, future extents are placed into bitmaps. Instead of keeping track of if a certain bit is trimmed or not in a second bitmap, keep track of the relative state of the bitmap. With async discard, trimming bitmaps becomes a more frequent operation. As a trade off with simplicity, we keep track of if discarding a bitmap is in progress. If we fully scan a bitmap and trim as necessary, the bitmap is marked clean. This has some caveats as the min block size may skip over regions deemed too small. But this should be a reasonable trade off rather than keeping a second bitmap and making allocation paths more complex. The downside is we may overtrim, but ideally the min block size should prevent us from doing that too often and getting stuck trimming pathological cases. BTRFS_TRIM_STATE_TRIMMING is added to indicate a bitmap is in the process of being trimmed. If additional free space is added to that bitmap, the bit is cleared. A bitmap will be marked BTRFS_TRIM_STATE_TRIMMED if the trimming code was able to reach the end of it and the former is still set.

btrfs: keep track of which extents have been discarded
Async discard will use the free space cache as backing knowledge for which extents to discard. This patch plumbs knowledge about which extents need to be discarded into the free space cache from unpin_extent_range(). An untrimmed extent can merge with everything as this is a new region. Absorbing trimmed extents is a tradeoff to for greater coalescing which makes life better for find_free_extent(). Additionally, it seems the size of a trim isn't as problematic as the trim io itself. When reading in the free space cache from disk, if sync is set, mark all extents as trimmed. The current code ensures at transaction commit that all free space is trimmed when sync is set, so this reflects that. Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org>

btrfs: drop bio_set_dev where not needed
bio_set_dev sets a bdev to a bio and is not only setting a pointer bug also changing some state bits if there was a different bdev set before. This is one thing that's not needed. Another thing is that setting a bdev at bio allocation time is too early and actually does not work with plain redundancy profiles, where each time we submit a bio to a device, the bdev is set correctly. In many places the bio bdev is set to latest_bdev that seems to serve as a stub pointer "just to put something to bio". But we don't have to do that. Where do we know which bdev to set: * for regular IO: submit_stripe_bio that's called by btrfs_map_bio * repair IO: repair_io_failure, read or write from specific device * super block write (using buffer_heads but uses raw bdev) and barriers * scrub: this does not use all regular IO paths as it needs to reach all copies, verify and fixup eventually, and for that all bdev management is independent * raid56: rbio_add_io_page, for the RMW write * integrity-checker: does it's own low-level block tracking Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>

btrfs: record all roots for rename exchange on a subvol
Testing with the new fsstress support for subvolumes uncovered a pretty bad problem with rename exchange on subvolumes. We're modifying two different subvolumes, but we only start the transaction on one of them, so the other one is not added to the dirty root list. This is caught by btrfs_cow_block() with a warning because the root has not been updated, however if we do not modify this root again we'll end up pointing at an invalid root because the root item is never updated. Fix this by making sure we add the destination root to the trans list, the same as we do with normal renames. This fixes the corruption.

Btrfs: fix block group remaining RO forever after error during device…
… replace When doing a device replace, while at scrub.c:scrub_enumerate_chunks(), we set the block group to RO mode and then wait for any ongoing writes into extents of the block group to complete. While doing that wait we overwrite the value of the variable 'ret' and can break out of the loop if an error happens without turning the block group back into RW mode. So what happens is the following: 1) btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() returns 0, meaning it set the block group to RO mode (its ->ro field set to 1 or incremented to some value > 1); 2) Then btrfs_wait_ordered_roots() returns a value > 0; 3) Then if either joining or committing the transaction fails, we break out of the loop wihtout calling btrfs_dec_block_group_ro(), leaving the block group in RO mode forever. To fix this, just remove the code that waits for ongoing writes to extents of the block group, since it's not needed because in the initial setup phase of a device replace operation, before starting to find all chunks and their extents, we set the target device for replace while holding fs_info->dev_replace->rwsem, which ensures that after releasing that semaphore, any writes into the source device are made to the target device as well (__btrfs_map_block() guarantees that). So while at scrub_enumerate_chunks() we only need to worry about finding and copying extents (from the source device to the target device) that were written before we started the device replace operation.

The root cause is, we have the following bad loop of creating tons of system chunks: 1. The only SYSTEM chunk is being scrubbed It's very common to have only one SYSTEM chunk. 2. New SYSTEM bg will be allocated As btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() will check if we have enough space after marking current bg RO. If not, then allocate a new chunk. 3. New SYSTEM bg is still empty, will be reclaimed During the reclaim, we will mark it RO again. 4. That newly allocated empty SYSTEM bg get scrubbed We go back to step 2, as the bg is already mark RO but still not cleaned up yet. If the cleaner kthread doesn't get executed fast enough (e.g. only one CPU), then we will get more and more empty SYSTEM chunks, using up all the space of btrfs_super_block::sys_chunk_array. [FIX] Since scrub/dev-replace doesn't always need to allocate new extent, especially chunk tree extent, so we don't really need to do chunk pre-allocation. To break above spiral, here we introduce a new parameter to btrfs_inc_block_group(), @do_chunk_alloc, which indicates whether we need extra chunk pre-allocation. For relocation, we pass @do_chunk_alloc=true, while for scrub, we pass @do_chunk_alloc=false. This should keep unnecessary empty chunks from popping up for scrub. Also, since there are two parameters for btrfs_inc_block_group_ro(), add more comment for it.
