2014-04-08affs: add mount option to avoid filename truncatesFabian Frederick1-3/+6
Normal behavior for filenames exceeding specific filesystem limits is to refuse operation. AFFS standard name length being only 30 characters against 255 for usual Linux filesystems, original implementation does filename truncate by default with a define value AFFS_NO_TRUNCATE which can be enabled but needs module compilation. This patch adds 'nofilenametruncate' mount option so that user can easily activate that feature and avoid a lot of problems (eg overwrite files ...)

Currently we don't have a way how to determing from which mount point file has been opened. This information is required for proper dumping and restoring file descriptos due to presence of mount namespaces. It's possible, that two file descriptors are opened using the same paths, but one fd references mount point from one namespace while the other fd -- from other namespace. $ ls -l /proc/1/fd/1 lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Mar 19 23:54 /proc/1/fd/1 -> /dev/null $ cat /proc/1/fdinfo/1 pos: 0 flags: 0100002 mnt_id: 16 $ cat /proc/1/mountinfo | grep ^16 16 32 0:4 / /dev rw,nosuid shared:2 - devtmpfs devtmpfs rw,size=1013356k,nr_inodes=253339,mode=755 Signed-off-by: Andrey Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Acked-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@parallels.com> Acked-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Cc: Rob Landley <rob@landley.net> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

2014-04-08mm: introduce vm_ops->map_pages()Kirill A. Shutemov1-0/+10
Here's new version of faultaround patchset. It took a while to tune it and collect performance data. First patch adds new callback ->map_pages to vm_operations_struct. ->map_pages() is called when VM asks to map easy accessible pages. Filesystem should find and map pages associated with offsets from "pgoff" till "max_pgoff". ->map_pages() is called with page table locked and must not block. If it's not possible to reach a page without blocking, filesystem should skip it. Filesystem should use do_set_pte() to setup page table entry. Pointer to entry associated with offset "pgoff" is passed in "pte" field in vm_fault structure. Pointers to entries for other offsets should be calculated relative to "pte". Currently VM use ->map_pages only on read page fault path. We try to map FAULT_AROUND_PAGES a time. FAULT_AROUND_PAGES is 16 for now. Performance data for different FAULT_AROUND_ORDER is below. TODO: - implement ->map_pages() for shmem/tmpfs; - modify get_user_pages() to be able to use ->map_pages() and implement mmap(MAP_POPULATE|MAP_NONBLOCK) on top. ========================================================================= Tested on 4-socket machine (120 threads) with 128GiB of RAM. Few real-world workloads. The sweet spot for FAULT_AROUND_ORDER here is somewhere between 3 and 5.

2014-04-07f2fs: introduce f2fs_issue_flush to avoid redundant flush issueJaegeuk Kim1-0/+4
Some storage devices show relatively high latencies to complete cache_flush commands, even though their normal IO speed is prettry much high. In such the case, it needs to merge cache_flush commands as much as possible to avoid issuing them redundantly. So, this patch introduces a mount option, "-o flush_merge", to mitigate such the overhead. If this option is enabled by user, F2FS merges the cache_flush commands and then issues just one cache_flush on behalf of them. Once the single command is finished, F2FS sends a completion signal to all the pending threads. Note that, this option can be used under a workload consisting of very intensive concurrent fsync calls, while the storage handles cache_flush commands slowly.

2014-04-04nilfs2: implementation of NILFS_IOCTL_SET_SUINFO ioctlAndreas Rohner1-0/+7
With this ioctl the segment usage entries in the SUFILE can be updated from userspace. This is useful, because it allows the userspace GC to modify and update segment usage entries for specific segments, which enables it to avoid unnecessary write operations. If a segment needs to be cleaned, but there is no or very little reclaimable space in it, the cleaning operation basically degrades to a useless moving operation. In the end the only thing that changes is the location of the data and a timestamp in the segment usage information. With this ioctl the GC can skip the cleaning and update the segment usage entries directly instead. This is basically a shortcut to cleaning the segment. It is still necessary to read the segment summary information, but the writing of the live blocks can be skipped if it's not worth it.

2014-04-04mm + fs: store shadow entries in page cacheJohannes Weiner1-3/+3
Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point, reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty. Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check for this flag before installing shadow pages.

Previously, the free nid list was controlled by MAX_FREE_NIDS, while the nat cache was managed by NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD. However, this approach cannot be applied dynamically according to the system. So, this patch adds ram_thresh that users can specify the threshold, which is in order of 1 / 1024. For example, if the total ram size is 4GB and the value is set to 10 by default, f2fs tries to control the number of free nids and nat caches not to consume over 10 * (4GB / 1024) = 10MB.

2014-02-27f2fs: add an sysfs entry to control the directory levelJaegeuk Kim1-0/+7
This patch adds an sysfs entry to control dir_level used by the large directory. The description of this entry is: dir_level This parameter controls the directory level to support large directory. If a directory has a number of files, it can reduce the file lookup latency by increasing this dir_level value. Otherwise, it needs to decrease this value to reduce the space overhead. The default value is 0. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>
2014-02-27f2fs: introduce large directory supportJaegeuk Kim1-2/+4
This patch introduces an i_dir_level field to support large directory. Previously, f2fs maintains multi-level hash tables to find a dentry quickly from a bunch of chiild dentries in a directory, and the hash tables consist of the following tree structure as below. In Documentation/filesystems/f2fs.txt, ---------------------- A : bucket B : block N : MAX_DIR_HASH_DEPTH ---------------------- level #0 | A(2B) | level #1 | A(2B) - A(2B) | level #2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) . | . . . . level #N/2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B) . | . . . . level #N | A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - ... - A(4B) But, if we can guess that a directory will handle a number of child files, we don't need to traverse the tree from level #0 to #N all the time. Since the lower level tables contain relatively small number of dentries, the miss ratio of the target dentry is likely to be high. In order to avoid that, we can configure the hash tables sparsely from level #0 like this. level #0 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) level #1 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B) . | . . . . level #N/2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B) . | . . . . level #N | A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - ... - A(4B) With this structure, we can skip the ineffective tree searches in lower level hash tables. This patch adds just a facility for this by introducing i_dir_level in f2fs_inode. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

2014-01-31mm, oom: base root bonus on current usageDavid Rientjes1-2/+2
A 3% of system memory bonus is sometimes too excessive in comparison to other processes. With commit a63d83f427fb ("oom: badness heuristic rewrite"), the OOM killer tries to avoid killing privileged tasks by subtracting 3% of overall memory (system or cgroup) from their per-task consumption. But as a result, all root tasks that consume less than 3% of overall memory are considered equal, and so it only takes 33+ privileged tasks pushing the system out of memory for the OOM killer to do something stupid and kill dhclient or other root-owned processes. For example, on a 32G machine it can't tell the difference between the 1M agetty and the 10G fork bomb member. The changelog describes this 3% boost as the equivalent to the global overcommit limit being 3% higher for privileged tasks, but this is not the same as discounting 3% of overall memory from _every privileged task individually_ during OOM selection. Replace the 3% of system memory bonus with a 3% of current memory usage bonus. By giving root tasks a bonus that is proportional to their actual size, they remain comparable even when relatively small. In the example above, the OOM killer will discount the 1M agetty's 256 badness points down to 179, and the 10G fork bomb's 262144 points down to 183500 points and make the right choice, instead of discounting both to 0 and killing agetty because it's first in the task list.

2014-01-22/proc/meminfo: provide estimated available memoryRik van Riel1-0/+9
Many load balancing and workload placing programs check /proc/meminfo to estimate how much free memory is available. They generally do this by adding up "free" and "cached", which was fine ten years ago, but is pretty much guaranteed to be wrong today. It is wrong because Cached includes memory that is not freeable as page cache, for example shared memory segments, tmpfs, and ramfs, and it does not include reclaimable slab memory, which can take up a large fraction of system memory on mostly idle systems with lots of files. Currently, the amount of memory that is available for a new workload, without pushing the system into swap, can be estimated from MemFree, Active(file), Inactive(file), and SReclaimable, as well as the "low" watermarks from /proc/zoneinfo. However, this may change in the future, and user space really should not be expected to know kernel internals to come up with an estimate for the amount of free memory. It is more convenient to provide such an estimate in /proc/meminfo. If things change in the future, we only have to change it in one place.

2013-12-23f2fs: introduce sysfs entry to control in-place-update policyJaegeuk Kim1-0/+11
This patch introduces new sysfs entries for users to control the policy of in-place-updates, namely IPU, in f2fs. Sometimes f2fs suffers from performance degradation due to its out-of-place update policy that produces many additional node block writes. If the storage performance is very dependant on the amount of data writes instead of IO patterns, we'd better drop this out-of-place update policy. This patch suggests 5 polcies and their triggering conditions as follows. [sysfs entry name = ipu_policy] 0: F2FS_IPU_FORCE all the time, 1: F2FS_IPU_SSR if SSR mode is activated, 2: F2FS_IPU_UTIL if FS utilization is over threashold, 3: F2FS_IPU_SSR_UTIL if SSR mode is activated and FS utilization is over threashold, 4: F2FS_IPU_DISABLE disable IPU. (=default option) [sysfs entry name = min_ipu_util] This parameter controls the threshold to trigger in-place-updates. The number indicates percentage of the filesystem utilization, and used by F2FS_IPU_UTIL and F2FS_IPU_SSR_UTIL policies. For more details, see need_inplace_update() in segment.h.
