Subject: [PATCH v3 00/22] btrfs: add read-only support for subpage sector size
Date: Wed, 6 Jan 2021 09:01:39 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210106010201.37864-1-wqu@suse.com> (raw)
Patches can be fetched from github:
https://github.com/adam900710/linux/tree/subpage
Currently the branch also contains partial RW data support (still some
out-of-sync subpage data page status).
Great thanks to David for his effort reviewing and merging the
preparation patches into misc-next.
Now all previously submitted preparation patches are already in
misc-next.
=== What works ===
Just from the patchset:
- Data read
Both regular and compressed data, with csum check.
- Metadata read
This means, with these patchset, 64K page systems can at least mount
btrfs with 4K sector size.
In the subpage branch
- Metadata read write and balance
Not yet full tested due to data write still has bugs need to be
solved.
But considering that metadata operations from previous iteration
is mostly untouched, metadata read write should be pretty stable.
- Baisc data balance
This is new.
- Data read write
Only uncompressed data writes. Fsstress can survive.
But still very rare data csum error, which only happens in bookend data
extents (part of the data extent which is not referred by any file).
This looks like something related to reflink/invalidate page and cow
fixup.
Still invetigating.
=== Needs feedback ===
The following design needs extra comments:
- u16 bitmap
As David mentioned, using u16 as bit map is not the fastest way.
That's also why current bitmap code requires unsigned long (u32) as
minimal unit.
But using bitmap directly would double the memory usage.
Thus the best way is to pack two u16 bitmap into one u32 bitmap, but
that still needs extra investigation to find better practice.
Anyway the skeleton should be pretty simple to expand.
- Separate handling for subpage metadata
Currently the metadata read and (later write path) handles subpage
metadata differently. Mostly due to the page locking must be skipped
for subpage metadata.
I tried several times to use as many common code as possible, but
every time I ended up reverting back to current code.
Thankfully, for data handling we will use the same common code.
- Incompatible subpage strcuture against iomap_page
In btrfs we need extra bits than iomap_page.
This is due to we need sector perfect write for data balance.
E.g. if only one 4K sector is dirty in a 64K page, we should only
write that dirty 4K back to disk, not the full 64K page.
As data balance requires the new data extents to have exactly the
same size as the original ones.
This means, unless iomap_page get extra bits like what we're doing in
btrfs for dirty, we can't merge the btrfs_subpage with iomap_page.
=== Patchset structure ===
Patch 01~03: Existing preparation patches.
Mostly readability related patches found during RW
development
Patch 04~05: New preparation patches.
Mostly related to __process_pages_contig().
Patch 06~10: Subpage handling for extent buffer allocation and
freeing
Patch 11~22: Subpage handling for extent buffer read path
=== Changelog ===
v1:
- Separate the main implementation from previous huge patchset
Huge patchset doesn't make much sense.
- Use bitmap implementation
Now page::private will be a pointer to btrfs_subpage structure, which
contains bitmaps for various page status.
v2:
- Use page::private as btrfs_subpage for extra info
This replace old extent io tree based solution, which reduces latency
and don't require memory allocation for its operations.
- Cherry-pick new preparation patches from RW development
Those new preparation patches improves the readability by their own.
v3:
- Make dummy extent buffer to follow the same subpage accessors
Fsstress exposed several ASSERT() for dummy extent buffers.
It turns out we need to make dummy extent buffer to own the same
btrfs_subpage structure to make eb accessors to work properly
- Two new small __process_pages_contig() related preparation patches
One to make __process_pages_contig() to enhance the error handling
path for locked_page, one to merge one macro.
- Extent buffers refs count update
Except try_release_extent_buffer(), all other eb uses will try to
increase the ref count of the eb.
For try_release_extent_buffer(), the eb refs check will happen inside
the rcu critical section to avoid eb being freed.
- Comment updates
Addressing the comments from the mail list.
