Re: [PATCH v2] Btrfs: fix btrfs boot when compiled as built-in
There is still a problem when btrfs is built-in: err = btrfs_hash_init(); Will not succeed if run on an slow cpu (intel u7300) or in qemu if btrfs is built-in: # qemu-kvm -enable-kvm -usbdevice tablet -m 2048 -smp 2 -sdl -kernel /usr/src/linux/arch/x86/boot/bzImage But it works, when btrfs is a module. I really do not want to go back using modules in my initramfs .. There must be a way to move init_btrfs_fs to the end of Linux built-in initializations ..

Re: [PATCH v2] Btrfs: fix btrfs boot when compiled as built-in
okay, putting late_initcall instead of module_init fixes it for me, but this is something you guys should decide how to handle: //module_init(init_btrfs_fs) late_initcall(init_btrfs_fs); Ahmet -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-btrfs in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Re: [PATCH v2] Btrfs: fix tree mod logging
Thanks a lot Filipe! Have been testing this patch now for 5 days and it fixed this annoying Problem since 3.11.0 on 3x NFS Servers here. This is also a candidate that should be back ported, as it fixes crashes. Just for Information for others here: Your previous patch, Btrfs: return immediately if tree log mod is not necessary is also needed to make it apply cleanly.

Re: btrfs defrag kernel 3.11
ive had the same problem and this commit helped, which i had to cherry-pick:
commit c83b3452db6e1b048312c50b23f06c9634535f80
Author: Josef Bacik jba...@fusionio.com

Btrfs: reset ret in record_one_backref
I was getting warnings when running find ./ -type f -exec btrfs fi
defrag -f {}
\; from record_one_backref because ret was set. Turns out it was
because it was
set to 1 because the search slot didn't come out exact and we
never reset it.
So reset it to 0 right after the search so we don't leak this and get
uneccessary warnings. Thanks,
Ahmet

kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/ctree.c:1144!
I got this problem since 3.8.5 + for-linus (from that time). Have just tried 3.8.6 + for-linus with git merge -X theirs btrfs/for-linus but still same problem. Going back to 3.7.4 + for-linus (from that time) doesn't give me the problem. This is an production nfs server with 2x2TB raid1, so cant reboot it that often. Have seen this same problem on another system (also raid1) once, but rebooting helped, no problems since. Both systems use autodefrag, maybe that sometimes triggers it? I really would like to help, so i can stay on the latest kernels. What should i do? Ahmet [35103.977604] [ cut here ] [35103.977633] kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/ctree.c:1144!

Re: kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/ctree.c:1144!
The real problem, however, is not caused by that commit but by a tree mod log
bug. I expect that fs/btrfs/ctree.c:1144 is this BUG_ON in your kernel from
__tree_mod_log_rewind (my line numbers don't match):
1138 switch (tm-op) {
1139 case MOD_LOG_KEY_REMOVE_WHILE_FREEING:
1140 BUG_ON(tm-slot n);
I've got a fix for that I'm currently testing, expect it on the list soon.
Yea, thats the line.
For the meantime I recommend to not defrag your filesystem.
Ok, already disabled and rebooted.
Will come back to You if i still get that Problem.
As a general remark, please send your stack traces inline, not as attachment
if
possible.
Google mail always screws longer than 80 lines in plain text mode and
non plain text is not what You want.
Maybe i should go back to using mutt.
Thank You,
Ahmet

We have a way to abort transactions now, if it's in a horrible of enough spot we can just abort the transaction and let the user deal with the aftermath, it's nicer than panicing. Thanks, youre right. i am only afraid of silent corruption of data on aborts: our guys here trigger OOM all the time with their compilers and numerical codes (go figure). and until now we had no more aborts / panics because of vm.min_free_kbytes = 65536 and thus no corruption. my point is: i like a freezing computer more than an corrupting computer, even if its a server. reboot to the rescue.

Re: btrfs crash when low on memory.
If we're corrupting on abort that is a bug too that needs to be fixed too. I've banged on the abort stuff a lot recently when trying to make it not panic the box and it appears to work fine. Obviously that kind of stuff needs to be tested as well, but so far I haven't seen abort corrupt the file system. Thanks, thank you for the info Josef. i will report a bug next time i hit such a case then.

with defaults (inlining small files): real4m39.253s Data: total=10.01GB, used=9.08GB Metadata, DUP: total=2.00GB, used=992.48MB This uses 10290.40 MB total, if we pad with zeroes (9.08GB plus 992.48MB). without inline: real4m42.085s Data: total=11.01GB, used=10.85GB Metadata, DUP: total=1.00GB, used=518.59MB Under the same assumption, this uses 11628.99 MB total (10.85GB + 518.59MB). With inlining, you're using about 1.3 GB less disk space and require a thank you for clarifying this. 10% is indeed a benefit. few seconds less wall-clock time for the same thing. those where only 2 tests, have to make a lot more runs to make qualified judgement there. one percent difference is noise floor to me.

Re: Why btrfs inline small file by default?
9.08GB + 992.48MB*2 == 11.02GB 10.85GB + 518MB*2 == 11.86GB That's nearly a GB smaller. That, too; I missed the DUP. Not quite as pronounced as in my calculations, then, but still a significant enough difference. great. now were down to 7-8% just FYI: ive retested with max_inline=0 but with leafsize=64K this time: # mkfs.btrfs -l 64K -L root /dev/sda2 ... real4m45.878s user1m44.730s sys 1m7.226s thats 2% slower for this one test (no big deal really) # btrfs filesystem show Label: 'root' uuid: dd2951da-2529-4320-a952-e692ea5bdbc3 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 11.37GB devid1 size 232.63GB used 13.04GB path /dev/sda2 Btrfs v0.20-rc1 # btrfs filesystem df /mnt/point/ Data: total=11.01GB, used=10.89GB System, DUP: total=8.00MB, used=64.00KB System: total=4.00MB, used=0.00 Metadata, DUP: total=1.00GB, used=487.94MB Metadata: total=8.00MB, used=0.00 (1024*10.89 + 2*487.94) / 1024 = 11.84GiB still around 7-8% now lets see what everyday use with max_inline=0 and leafsize=64K feels like :) Ahmet -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-btrfs in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
Re: ENOSPC design issues
when testing, please also do something like this: # create big squashfs image somewhere: # mksquashfs / /big.img -noappend -no-sparse -e big.img # then unpack into fresh filesystem with (and no) compression: # unsquashfs -f -d /subvol /big.img this is how i was always able to trigger ENOSPC while trying to make a full system installation from squashfs image. you should also try different compression algos (i only use lzo) btw: i was able to trigger ENOSPC with for-linus on 3.5.4 on a i686 Pentium M Notebook with only 1GB of Memory and fresh FSthis way, otherwise havent seen ENOSPC for long time.

Before I go and do a whole lot of work I want some feedback. I've done a brain dump here https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/ENOSPC Thanks for writing it down, much appreciated. My first and probably naive approach is described in the page, quoting here: Attempt to address how to flush less stated below. The over-reservation of a 4k block can go up to 96k as the worst case calculation (see above). This accounts for splitting the full tree path from 8th level root down to the leaf plus the node splits. My question: how often do we need to go up to the level N+1 from current level N? for levels 0 and 1 it may happen within one transaction, maybe not so often for level 2 and with exponentially decreasing frequency for the higher levels. Therefore, is it possible to check the tree level first and adapt the calculation according to that? Let's say we can reduce the 4k reservation size from 96k to 32k on average (for a many-gigabyte filesystem), thus increasing the space available for reservations by some factor. The expected gain is less pressure to the flusher because more reservations will succeed immediately. The idea behind is to make the initial reservation more accurate to current state than blindly overcommitting by some random factor (1/2). Another hint to the tree root level may be the usage of the root node: eg. if the root is less than half full, splitting will not happen unless there are K concurrent reservations running where K is proportional to overwriting the whole subtree (same exponential decrease with increasing level) and this will not be possible within one transaction or there will not be enough space to satisfy all reservations. (This attempts to fine-tune the currently hardcoded level 8 up to the best value). The safe value for the level in the calculations would be like N+1, ie. as if all the possible splits happen with respect to current tree height. implemented as follows on top of next/master, in short: * disable overcommit completely * do the optimistically best guess for the metadata and reserve only up to the current tree height So I had tried to do this before, the problem is when height changes our reserve changes. So for things like delalloc we say we have X number of extents and we reserve that much space, but then when we run delalloc we re-calculate the metadata size for X number extents we've removed and that number could come out differently since the height of the tree would have changed. One thing we could do is to store the actual reservation with the extent in the io_tree, but I think we already use the private for something else so we'd have to add it somewhere else.

And now that space_cache is enabled and working even btrfs as module works ok. Conclusion: btrfs in kernel + space_cache solves all my slow boot problems.

You are going to have to boot/reboot a few times to let the cache get re-generated again to make sure it's taken effect, but hopefully this will help out. Thanks, Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to help. Even after 3 or 4 reboots with this patch applied I'm still seeing the same delay. Ok drop that previous patch and give this one a whirl, it helped on my laptop. This is only half of the problem AFAICS, but it's the easier half to fix, in the meantime I need to lock down why we're not writing out cache for a bunch of block groups, but thats trickier since the messages I need are spit out while I'm shutting down, so I need to get creative. Let me know if/how much this helps. Thanks, i have tried your patch and my system still needs several minutes to boot until it can be used. Also tried to reboot several times - it doesn't look like its getting better. The last thing the system does when its shutting down is a read-only remount of / so no umount. Booting was much faster before i pulled for-linus a few weeks ago but i couldn't find the time to bisect it yet .. please also look at the attached dmesg.txt. this is an core i3 system with 2x2TB BTRFS RAID1 and lots of home directories and snapshots. I'm going to test this patch on twenty more computers but with smaller HDDs and less files and see if it helps to speed up their boot times.
