[f2fs-dev] [PATCH v2 0/4] fsck: Check write pointers of zoned block devices

[f2fs-dev] [PATCH v2 0/4] fsck: Check write pointers of zoned block devices

[Shin'ichiro Kawasaki]

On sudden f2fs shutdown, zoned block device status and f2fs meta data can be
inconsistent. When f2fs shutdown happens during write operations, write pointers
on the device go forward but the f2fs meta data does not reflect write pointer
progress. This inconsistency will eventually cause "Unaligned write command"
error when restarting write operation after the next mount. This error can be
observed with xfstests test case generic/388, which enforces sudden shutdown
during write operation and checks the file system recovery. Once the error
happens because of the inconsistency, the file system requires fix. However,
fsck.f2fs does not have a feature to check and fix it.

This patch series adds a new feature to fsck.f2fs to check and fix the
inconsistency. First and second patches add two functions which helps fsck to
call report zone and reset zone commands to zoned block devices. Third patch
checks write pointers of zones that current segments recorded in meta data point
to. This covers the failure symptom observed with xfstests. The last patch
checks write pointers of zones that current segments do not point to, which
covers a potential failure scenario.

This patch series depends on other patches for zoned block devices, then it
conflicts with the master branch in f2fs-tools.git as of Aug/19/2019. It can be
applied without conflict to dev and dev-test branch tips.

Changes from v1:
* Fixed build failure on dev branch

[f2fs-dev] [PATCH v2 1/4] libf2fs_zoned: Introduce f2fs_report_zones() helper function

[Shin'ichiro Kawasaki]

To prepare for write pointer consistency check by fsck, add
f2fs_report_zones() helper function which calls REPORT ZONE command to
get write pointer status. The function is added to lib/libf2fs_zoned
which gathers zoned block device related functions.

To check write pointer consistency with f2fs meta data, fsck needs to
refer both of reported zone information and f2fs super block structure
"f2fs_sb_info". However, libf2fs_zoned does not import f2fs_sb_info. To
keep f2fs_sb_info structure out of libf2fs_zoned, provide a callback
function in fsck to f2fs_report_zones() and call it for each zone.

Hi Shin'ichiro,

Could we use SECTOR_SHIFT instead?

It's minor, it will be better to print errno here, since I didn't see we print
error no from caller.

The condition looks like that block zones in rep may across end-of-device? Will
this really happen?

So I mean will "i < rep->nr_zones" be enough?

Thanks,

Hi Chao, thank you for your review.

> Could we use SECTOR_SHIFT instead?

Yes. In the third patch, I added SECTOR_SHIFT definition in fsck/fsck.c. To use
it both in lib/libf2fs_zoned.c and fsck/fsck.c, I will define SECTOR_SHIFT in
include/f2fs_fs.h.

You are correct. I will remove the sector comparison in v2 series.

[f2fs-dev] [PATCH v2 3/4] fsck.f2fs: Check write pointer consistency with current segments

[Shin'ichiro Kawasaki]

On sudden f2fs shutdown, zoned block device status and f2fs current
segment positions in meta data can be inconsistent. When f2fs shutdown
happens before write operations completes, write pointers of zoned block
devices can go further but f2fs meta data keeps current segments at
positions before the write operations. After remounting the f2fs, the
inconsistency causes write operations not at write pointers and
"Unaligned write command" error is reported. This error was observed when
xfstests test case generic/388 was run with f2fs on a zoned block device.

To avoid the error, have f2fs.fsck check consistency between each current
segment's position and the write pointer of the zone the current segment
points to. If the write pointer goes advance from the current segment,
fix the current segment position setting at same as the write pointer
position. In case the write pointer is behind the current segment, write
zero data at the write pointer position to make write pointer position at
same as the current segment.

When inconsistencies are found, turn on c.bug_on flag in fsck_verify() to
ask users to fix them or not. When inconsistencies get fixed, turn on
'force' flag in fsck_verify() to enforce fixes in following checks. This
position fix is done at the beginning of do_fsck() function so that other
checks reflect the current segment modification.

Will this happen?

- write checkpoint
- curseg points zone A
- write large number of data
- curseg points zone B, write pointer > 0
- sudden power cut, curseg will be reset to zone A

zone B's write pointer won't be verified due to curseg points to zone A?

Thanks,

IIUC, we are trying fix such condition in a separated PATCH 4/4.

Yes, that's the failure scenario that PATCH 4/4 tried to address. As I
responded separately, I would like to drop PATCH 4/4 at this moment.

Will add your reviewed-by tag to this PATCH 3/4 in the next version.
Thanks!

[f2fs-dev] [PATCH v2 4/4] fsck.f2fs: Check write pointer consistency with valid blocks count

[Shin'ichiro Kawasaki]

When sudden f2fs shutdown happens on zoned block devices, write
pointers can be inconsistent with valid blocks counts in meta data.
The failure scenario is as follows:

- Just before a sudden shutdown, a new segment in a new zone is selected
  for a current segment. Write commands were executed to the segment.
  and the zone has a write pointer not at zone start.
- Before the write commands complete, shutdown happens. Meta data is
  not updated and still keeps zero valid blocks count for the zone.
- After next mount of the file system, the zone is selected for the next
  write target because it has zero valid blocks count. However, it has
  the write pointer not at zone start. Then "Unaligned write command"
  error happens.

To avoid this potential error path, reset write pointers if the zone
does not have a current segment, the write pointer is not at the zone
start and the zone has no valid blocks.

In SPOR (sudden power-off recovery) of kernel side, we may revalidate blocks
belong to fsynced file in such zone within range of [0, write pointer], if we
just reset zone, will we lose those data for ever?

BTW, how you think enabling f2fs kernel module to recover incorrect write
pointer of zone? Once f2fs-tools doesn't upgrade, however kernel does...

Yes. This patch resets zone and the data will be lost. I walked through
fs/f2fs/recovery.c and learned that nodes with fsync mark are recovered at
remount. Such fsync recovery cannot be done after zone reset. To avoid the
data loss, I would like to drop this fourth patch at this moment.

Later on, I will consider safer approach not to reset the zone, but to set next
write target block at the write pointer. I guess this approach will need kernel
side patch to change block selection logic.

Current f2fs allows to mount zoned block devices even when they have
inconsistency with f2fs meta data. This is not good. Then I believe kernel side
needs the feature to check write pointer inconsistency at mount time and fix it.

As you indicate, fix by kernel is more handy than notice to run fsck, especially
when users do not have latest f2fs-tools. Still fix by fsck is needed when users
use the kernel without the fix feature. I think both approaches are required:
fix by kernel and fix by fsck.

I guess below commit can help to recognize fsynced data in unclean umounted
image, maybe we can skip invalidating those data during zone write pointer recovery.

Agreed, let's try to fix in both side.

Thank you for the idea! The find_fsync_inode() function in the commit looks
useful. Will try to create a separated patch on top of the commit.
