[PATCH 0/4] [RESEND] Btrfs: just bunch of patches to ioctl.c

[PATCH 0/4] [RESEND] Btrfs: just bunch of patches to ioctl.c

[Timofey Titovets]

1st patch, remove 16MiB restriction from extent_same ioctl(),
by doing iterations over passed range.

I did not see much difference in performance, so it's just remove
logic restriction.

2-3 pathes, update defrag ioctl():
 - Fix bad behaviour with full rewriting all compressed
   extents in defrag range. (that also make autodefrag on compressed fs
   not so expensive)
 - Allow userspace specify NONE as target compression type,
   that allow users to uncompress files by defragmentation with btrfs-progs
 - Make defrag ioctl understood requested compression type and current
   compression type of extents, to make btrfs fi def -rc<type>
   idempotent operation.
   i.e. now possible to say, make all extents compressed with lzo,
   and btrfs will not recompress lzo compressed data.
   Same for zlib, zstd, none.
   (patch to btrfs-progs in PR on kdave GitHub).

4th patch, reduce size of struct btrfs_inode
 - btrfs_inode store fields like: prop_compress, defrag_compress and
   after 3rd patch, change_compress.
   They use unsigned as a type, and use 12 bytes in sum.
   But change_compress is a bitflag, and prop_compress/defrag_compress
   only store compression type, that currently use 0-3 of 2^32-1.
   
   So, set a bitfields on that vars, and reduce size of btrfs_inode:
   1136 -> 1128.

Timofey Titovets (4):
  Btrfs: btrfs_dedupe_file_range() ioctl, remove 16MiB restriction
  Btrfs: make should_defrag_range() understood compressed extents
  Btrfs: allow btrfs_defrag_file() uncompress files on defragmentation
  Btrfs: reduce size of struct btrfs_inode

[PATCH 1/4] [RESEND] Btrfs: btrfs_dedupe_file_range() ioctl, remove 16MiB restriction

[Timofey Titovets]

At now btrfs_dedupe_file_range() restricted to 16MiB range for
limit locking time and memory requirement for dedup ioctl()

For too big input range code silently set range to 16MiB

Let's remove that restriction by do iterating over dedup range.
That's backward compatible and will not change anything for request
less then 16MiB.

Changes:
  v1 -> v2:
    - Refactor btrfs_cmp_data_prepare and btrfs_extent_same
    - Store memory of pages array between iterations
    - Lock inodes once, not on each iteration
    - Small inplace cleanups

I think this patch should be split into more, there are several logical
changes mixed together.

I can add the patch to for-next to see if there are any problems caught
by the existing test, but will expect more revisions of the patch. I
don't see any fundamental problems so far.

Suggested changes:
* factor out __btrfs_extent_same
* adjust parameters if needed by the followup patches
* add the chunk counting logic
* any other cleanups

Have a nice day,
Timofey.

[PATCH 2/4] [RESEND] Btrfs: make should_defrag_range() understood compressed extents

[Timofey Titovets]

 Both, defrag ioctl and autodefrag - call btrfs_defrag_file()
 for file defragmentation.

 Kernel default target extent size - 256KiB.
 Btrfs progs default - 32MiB.

 Both bigger then maximum size of compressed extent - 128KiB.
 That lead to rewrite all compressed data on disk.

 Fix that by check compression extents with different logic.

 As addition, make should_defrag_range() understood compressed extent type,
 if requested target compression are same as current extent compression type.
 Just don't recompress/rewrite extents.
 To avoid useless recompression of compressed extents.

Currently defrag ioctl only support recompress files with specified

Allow set compression type to none, while call defrag, and use
BTRFS_DEFRAG_RANGE_COMPRESS as flag, that user request change of compression type.

[PATCH 4/4] [RESEND] Btrfs: reduce size of struct btrfs_inode

[Timofey Titovets]

Currently btrfs_inode have size equal 1136 bytes. (On x86_64).

struct btrfs_inode store several vars releated to compression code,
all states use 1 or 2 bits.

Lets declare bitfields for compression releated vars, to reduce
sizeof btrfs_inode to 1128 bytes.

Unfortunatelly, this has no big effect. The inodes are allocated from a
slab page, that's 4k and there are at most 3 inodes there. Snippet from
/proc/slabinfo:

# name            <active_objs> <num_objs> <objsize> <objperslab> <pagesperslab>
btrfs_inode       256043 278943   1096    3    1

The size on my box is 1096 as it's 4.14, but this should not matter to
demonstrate the idea.

objperslab is 3 here, ie. there are 3 btrfs_inode in the page, and
there's 4096 - 3 * 1096 = 808 of slack space. In order to pack 4 inodes
per page, we'd have to squeeze the inode size to 1024 bytes. I've looked
into that and did not see enough members to remove or substitute. IIRC
there were like 24-32 bytes possible to shave, but that was it.

Once we'd get to 1024, adding anything new to btrfs_inode would be quite
difficult and as it goes, there's always something to add to the inode.

So I'd take a different approach, to regroup items and decide by
cacheline access patterns what to put together and what to separate.

The maximum size of inode before going to 2 objects per page is 1365, so
there's enough space for cacheline alignments.

May be i misunderstood something, but i was think that slab combine several
pages
in continuous range, so object in slab can cross page boundary.
So, all calculation will be very depends on scale of slab size.

i.e. on my machine that looks quite different:
name                    <active_objs>  <num_objs>  <objsize>  <objperslab>
  <pagesperslab>
btrfs_inode             142475         146272      1136       28
  8

So,
PAGE_SIZE * pagesperslab / objperslab
4096 * 8 / 28 = 1170.28

4096*8 - 1136*28 = 960

That's looks like object can cross page boundary in slab.
So, if size reduced to 1128,
4096 * 8 / 29 = 1129.93
4096*8 - 1128*29 = 56

Did i miss something?

Thanks.

Then this depends on the allocator, SLAB does 4k pages and SLUB 32k, so
there's a value in reducing the inode size.
