  • Enable/disable use of the dentry dir 'complete' flag via a mount option.
    This lets the admin control whether ceph uses the dcache to satisfy
    negative lookups or readdir when it has the entire directory contents in
    its cache.

    This is purely a performance optimization; correctness is guaranteed
    whether it is enabled or not.

  • We have been using i_lock to protect all kinds of data structures in the
    ceph_inode_info struct, including lists of inodes that we need to iterate
    over while avoiding races with inode destruction. That requires grabbing
    a reference to the inode with the list lock protected, but igrab() now
    takes i_lock to check the inode flags.

    Changing the list lock ordering would be a painful process.

    However, using a ceph-specific i_ceph_lock in the ceph inode instead of
    i_lock is a simple mechanical change and avoids the ordering constraints
    imposed by igrab().

  • We used to use a flag on the directory inode to track whether the dcache
    contents for a directory were a complete cached copy. Switch to a dentry
    flag CEPH_D_COMPLETE that is safely updated by ->d_prune().

  • Have caller pass in a safely-obtained reference to the parent directory
    for calculating a dentry's hash valud.

    While we're here, simpify the flow through ceph_encode_fh() so that there
    is a single exit point and cleanup.

    Also fix a bug with the dentry hash calculation: calculate the hash for the
    dentry we were given, not its parent.

  • We weren't properly calling lookup_instantiate_filp when setting up the
    lookup intent, which could lead to file leakage on errors. So:

    - use separate helper for the hidden snapdir translation, immediately
    following the mds request
    - use ceph_finish_lookup for the final dentry/return value dance in the
    exit path
    - lookup_instantiate_filp on success

  • This allows us to force IO through the sync path which you normally only
    get when multiple clients are reading/writing to the same file or by
    mounting with -o sync. Among other things, this lets test programs verify
    correctness with a single mount.

  • Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called
    in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and
    the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some
    file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and
    ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make
    sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each
    individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

  • We increments i_wrbuffer_ref when taking the Fb cap. This breaks
    the dirty page accounting and causes looping in
    __ceph_do_pending_vmtruncate, and ceph client hangs.

    This bug can be reproduced occasionally by running blogbench.

    Add a new field i_wb_ref to inode and dedicate it to Fb reference
    counting.

  • When creating a new dentry we now hold a reference to the parent
    inode in the ceph_dentry. This is required due to the new RCU
    changes from 949854d0, which set dentry->d_parent to NULL in d_kill before
    calling the ->release() callback. If/when that behavior is changed, we can
    revert this hack.

  • Add a ceph_dir_layout to the inode, and calculate dentry hash values based
    on the parent directory's specified dir_hash function. This is needed
    because the old default Linux dcache hash function is extremely week and
    leads to a poor distribution of files among dir fragments.

  • We used to use rdcache_gen to indicate whether we "might" have cached
    pages. Now we just look at the mapping to determine that. However, some
    old behavior remains from that transition.

    First, rdcache_gen == 0 no longer means we have no pages. That can happen
    at any time (presumably when we carry FILE_CACHE). We should not reset it
    to zero, and we should not check that it is zero.

    That means that the only purpose for rdcache_revoking is to resolve races
    between new issues of FILE_CACHE and an async invalidate. If they are
    equal, we should invalidate. On success, we decrement rdcache_revoking,
    so that it is no longer equal to rdcache_gen. Similarly, if we success
    in doing a sync invalidate, set revoking = gen - 1. (This is a small
    optimization to avoid doing unnecessary invalidate work and does not
    affect correctness.)

  • We were taking dcache_lock inside of i_lock, which introduces a dependency
    not found elsewhere in the kernel, complicationg the vfs locking
    scalability work. Since we don't actually need it here anyway, remove
    it.

    We only need i_lock to test for the I_COMPLETE flag, so be careful to do
    so without dcache_lock held.

  • This factors out protocol and low-level storage parts of ceph into a
    separate libceph module living in net/ceph and include/linux/ceph. This
    is mostly a matter of moving files around. However, a few key pieces
    of the interface change as well:

    - ceph_client becomes ceph_fs_client and ceph_client, where the latter
    captures the mon and osd clients, and the fs_client gets the mds client
    and file system specific pieces.
    - Mount option parsing and debugfs setup is correspondingly broken into
    two pieces.
    - The mon client gets a generic handler callback for otherwise unknown
    messages (mds map, in this case).
    - The basic supported/required feature bits can be expanded (and are by
    ceph_fs_client).

    No functional change, aside from some subtle error handling cases that got
    cleaned up in the refactoring process.

  • Sending multiple flushsnap messages is problematic because we ignore
    the response if the tid doesn't match, and the server may only respond to
    each one once. It's also a waste.

    So, skip cap_snaps that are already on the flushing list, unless the caller
    tells us to resend (because we are reconnecting).

  • The cap_snap creation/queueing relies on both the current i_head_snapc
    _and_ the i_snap_realm pointers being correct, so that the new cap_snap
    can properly reference the old context and the new i_head_snapc can be
    updated to reference the new snaprealm's context. To fix this, we:

    - move inodes completely to the new (split) realm so that i_snap_realm
    is correct, and
    - generate the new snapc's _before_ queueing the cap_snaps in
    ceph_update_snap_trace().

  • We used to use i_head_snapc to keep track of which snapc the current epoch
    of dirty data was dirtied under. It is used by queue_cap_snap to set up
    the cap_snap. However, since we queue cap snaps for any dirty caps, not
    just for dirty file data, we need to keep a valid i_head_snapc anytime
    we have dirty|flushing caps. This fixes a NULL pointer deref in
    queue_cap_snap when writing back dirty caps without data (e.g.,
    snaptest-authwb.sh).

  • When we snapshot dirty metadata that needs to be written back to the MDS,
    include dirty xattr metadata. Make the capsnap reference the encoded
    xattr blob so that it will be written back in the FLUSHSNAP op.

    Also fix the capsnap creation guard to include dirty auth or file bits,
    not just tests specific to dirty file data or file writes in progress
    (this fixes auth metadata writeback).
