HI folks,
This is a patchset built on top of Allison's Logged Attributes
and my CIL Scalibility patch sets. It is inspired by the performance
regressions that were seen from logging 64k xattrs and trying to
work out how to minimise the impact of logging xattrs. Most of that
is explained in the "[RFC] xfs: intent item whiteouts" patch, so
I won't repeat it here.
The whiteouts massively reduce the journal write overhead of logging
xattrs - with this patchset I've reduced 2.5GB/s of log traffic (16
way file create w/64k xattr workload) down to approximately 220MB of
log traffic, and performance has increased from 9k creates/s to 36k
creates/s. The workload still writes to disk at 2.5GB/s, but that's
what writing 35k x 64k xattrs to disk does.
This is still short of the non-logged attribute mechanism, which
runs at 45-50k creates a second and 3.5-4GB/s to disk, but it brings
logged attrs to within roughly 5-15% of non-logged attrs across the
full range of attribute sizes.
The biggest limitation to logged attr throughput at this point in
time is the memory allocation overhead of the shadow buffers for
logging the xattr name. I have some ideas on how to avoid that, but
nothing concrete yet, so in the mean time there's a patch to make
"kvmalloc()" behave how we need it to behave and the whiteout
implementation frees shadow buffers attached to the intents when the
whiteout is applied so that we don't hold lots of memory allocated
unnecessarily.
This patchset is separate to the attr code, though, because
intent whiteouts are not specific to the attr code. They are a
generic mechanism that can be applied to all the intent/intent done
item pairs we already have. This patch set modifies all those
intents to use whiteouts, and so there is benefits from the patch
set for all operations that use these intents.
I haven't done anything other than smoke test these patches with
xattr performance tests, so don't use them on anything you care
about. This posting is for early feedback so I can try to land them
with the logged attribute code to minimise the impact of the perf
regressions.
What do people think of the approach I've taken for this feature?
Cheers,
Dave.

We currently have a couple of helper functions that try to infer
whether the log item is an intent or intent done item from the
combinations of operations it supports. This is incredibly fragile
and not very efficient as it requires checking specific combinations
of ops.
We need to be able to identify intent and intent done items quickly
and easily in upcoming patches, so simply add intent and intent done
type flags to the log item ops flags. These are static flags to
begin with, so intent items should have been typed like this from
the start.

Intent whiteouts will require extra work to be done during
transaction commit if the transaction contains an intent done item.
To determine if a transaction contains an intent done item, we want
to avoid having to walk all the items in the transaction to check if
they are intent done items. Hence when we add an intent done item to
a transaction, tag the transaction to indicate that it contains such
an item.
We don't tag the transaction when the defer ops is relogging an
intent to move it forward in the log. Whiteouts will never apply to
these cases, so we don't need to bother looking for them.

To apply a whiteout to an intent item when an intent done item is
committed, we need to be able to retrieve the intent item from the
the intent done item. Add a log item op method for doing this, and
wire all the intent done items up to it.

When we release an intent that a whiteout applies to, it will not
have been committed to the journal and so won't be in the AIL. Hence
when we drop the last reference to the intent, we do not want to try
to remove it from the AIL as that will trigger a filesystem
shutdown. Hence make the removal of intents from the AIL conditional
on them actually being in the AIL so we do the correct thing.

To: linux-xfs
From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>
When we log modifications based on intents, we add both intent
and intent done items to the modification being made. These get
written to the log to ensure that the operation is re-run if the
intent done is not found in the log.
However, for operations that complete wholly within a single
checkpoint, the change in the checkpoint is atomic and will never
need replay. In this case, we don't need to actually write the
intent and intent done items to the journal because log recovery
will never need to manually restart this modification.
Log recovery currently handles intent/intent done matching by
inserting the intent into the AIL, then removing it when a matching
intent done item is found. Hence for all the intent-based operations
that complete within a checkpoint, we spend all that time parsing
the intent/intent done items just to cancel them and do nothing with
them.
Hence it follows that the only time we actually need intents in the
log is when the modification crosses checkpoint boundaries in the
log and so may only be partially complete in the journal. Hence if
we commit and intent done item to the CIL and the intent item is in
the same checkpoint, we don't actually have to write them to the
journal because log recovery will always cancel the intents.
We've never really worried about the overhead of logging intents
unnecessarily like this because the intents we log are generally
very much smaller than the change being made. e.g. freeing an extent
involves modifying at lease two freespace btree blocks and the AGF,
so the EFI/EFD overhead is only a small increase in space and
processing time compared to the overall cost of freeing an extent.
However, delayed attributes change this cost equation dramatically,
especially for inline attributes. In the case of adding an inline
attribute, we only log the inode core and attribute fork at present.
With delayed attributes, we now log the attr intent which includes
the name and value, the inode core adn attr fork, and finally the
attr intent done item. We increase the number of items we log from 1
to 3, and the number of log vectors (regions) goes up from 3 to 7.
Hence we tripple the number of objects that the CIL has to process,
and more than double the number of log vectors that need to be
written to the journal.
At scale, this means delayed attributes cause a non-pipelined CIL to
become CPU bound processing all the extra items, resulting in a > 40%
performance degradation on 16-way file+xattr create worklaods.
Pipelining the CIL (as per 5.15) reduces the performance degradation
to 20%, but now the limitation is the rate at which the log items
can be written to the iclogs and iclogs be dispatched for IO and
completed.
Even log IO completion is slowed down by these intents, because it
now has to process 3x the number of items in the checkpoint.
Processing completed intents is especially inefficient here, because
we first insert the intent into the AIL, then remove it from the AIL
when the intent done is processed. IOWs, we are also doing expensive
operations in log IO completion we could completely avoid if we
didn't log completed intent/intent done pairs.
Enter log item whiteouts.
When an intent done is committed, we can check to see if the
associated intent is in the same checkpoint as we are currently
committing the intent done to. If so, we can mark the intent log
item with a whiteout and immediately free the intent done item
rather than committing it to the CIL. We can basically skip the
entire formatting and CIL insertion steps for the intent done item.
However, we cannot remove the intent item from the CIL at this point
because the unlocked per-cpu CIL item lists do not permit removal
without holding the CIL context lock exclusively. Transaction commit
only holds the context lock shared, hence the best we can do is mark
the intent item with a whiteout so that the CIL push can release it
rather than writing it to the log.
This means we never write the intent to the log if the intent done
has also been committed to the same checkpoint, but we'll always
write the intent if the intent done has not been committed or has
been committed to a different checkpoint. This will result in
correct log recovery behaviour in all cases, without the overhead of
logging unnecessary intents.
This intent whiteout concept is generic - we can apply it to all
intent/intent done pairs that have a direct 1:1 relationship. The
way deferred ops iterate and relog intents mean that all intents
currently have a 1:1 relationship with their done intent, and hence
we can apply this cancellation to all existing intent/intent done
implementations.
For delayed attributes with a 16-way 64kB xattr create workload,
whiteouts reduce the amount of journalled metadata from ~2.5GB/s
down to ~600MB/s and improve the creation rate from 9000/s to
14000/s.

Oh, let me count the ways that the kvmalloc API sucks dog eggs.
The problem is when we are logging lots of large objects, we hit
kvmalloc really damn hard with costly order allocations, and
behaviour utterly sucks:
- 49.73% xlog_cil_commit
- 31.62% kvmalloc_node
- 29.96% __kmalloc_node
- 29.38% kmalloc_large_node
- 29.33% __alloc_pages
- 24.33% __alloc_pages_slowpath.constprop.0

- 17.39% try_to_compact_pages
- compact_zone_order

5.29% __pageblock_pfn_to_page
3.71% PageHuge
- 1.44% isolate_migratepages_block
0.71% set_pfnblock_flags_mask
1.11% get_pfnblock_flags_mask
- 0.81% get_page_from_freelist
- 0.59% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
- do_raw_spin_lock
__pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
- 3.24% try_to_free_pages
- 3.14% shrink_node
- 2.94% shrink_slab.constprop.0
- 0.89% super_cache_count
- 0.66% xfs_fs_nr_cached_objects
- 0.65% xfs_reclaim_inodes_count
0.55% xfs_perag_get_tag
0.58% kfree_rcu_shrink_count

- 0.89% rmqueue_bulk

13.73% memcpy_erms
- 2.22% kvfree
On this workload, that's almost a dozen CPUs all trying to compact
and reclaim memory inside kvmalloc_node at the same time. Yet it is
regularly falling back to vmalloc despite all that compaction, page
and shrinker reclaim that direct reclaim is doing. Copying all the
metadata is taking far less CPU time than allocating the storage!
Direct reclaim should be considered extremely harmful.
This is a high frequency, high throughput, CPU usage and latency
sensitive allocation. We've got memory there, and we're using
kvmalloc to allow memory allocation to avoid doing lots of work to
try to do contiguous allocations.
Except it still does *lots of costly work* that is unnecessary.
Worse: the only way to avoid the slowpath page allocation trying to
do compaction on costly allocations is to turn off direct reclaim
(i.e. remove __GFP_RECLAIM_DIRECT from the gfp flags).
Unfortunately, the stupid kvmalloc API then says "oh, this isn't a
GFP_KERNEL allocation context, so you only get kmalloc!". This
cuts off the vmalloc fallback, and this leads to almost instant OOM
problems which ends up in filesystems deadlocks, shutdowns and/or
kernel crashes.
I want some basic kvmalloc behaviour:
- kmalloc for a contiguous range with fail fast semantics - no
compaction direct reclaim if the allocation enters the slow path.
- run normal vmalloc (i.e. GFP_KERNEL) if kmalloc fails
The really, really stupid part about this is these kvmalloc() calls
are run under memalloc_nofs task context, so all the allocations are
always reduced to GFP_NOFS regardless of the fact that kvmalloc
requires GFP_KERNEL to be passed in. IOWs, we're already telling
kvmalloc to behave differently to the gfp flags we pass in, but it
still won't allow vmalloc to be run with anything other than
GFP_KERNEL.
So, this patch open codes the kvmalloc() in the commit path to have
the above described behaviour. The result is we more than halve the
CPU time spend doing kvmalloc() in this path and transaction commits
with 64kB objects in them more than doubles. i.e. we get ~5x
reduction in CPU usage per costly-sized kvmalloc() invocation and
the profile looks like this:
- 37.60% xlog_cil_commit
16.01% memcpy_erms
- 8.45% __kmalloc
- 8.04% kmalloc_order_trace
- 8.03% kmalloc_order
- 7.93% alloc_pages
- 7.90% __alloc_pages
- 4.05% __alloc_pages_slowpath.constprop.0
- 2.18% get_page_from_freelist
- 1.77% wake_all_kswapds
....
- __wake_up_common_lock
- 0.94% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
- 3.72% get_page_from_freelist
- 2.43% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
- 5.72% vmalloc
- 5.72% __vmalloc_node_range
- 4.81% __get_vm_area_node.constprop.0
- 3.26% alloc_vmap_area
- 2.52% _raw_spin_lock
- 1.46% _raw_spin_lock
0.56% __alloc_pages_bulk
- 4.66% kvfree
- 3.25% vfree
- __vfree
- 3.23% __vunmap
- 1.95% remove_vm_area
- 1.06% free_vmap_area_noflush
- 0.82% _raw_spin_lock
- 0.68% _raw_spin_lock
- 0.92% _raw_spin_lock
- 1.40% kfree
- 1.36% __free_pages
- 1.35% __free_pages_ok
- 1.02% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
It's worth noting that over 50% of the CPU time spent allocating
these shadow buffers is now spent on spinlocks. So the shadow buffer
allocation overhead is greatly reduced by getting rid of direct
reclaim from kmalloc, and could probably be made even less costly if
vmalloc() didn't use global spinlocks to protect it's structures.

Ok, this makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the detailed explanation, it
helps a lot. I think we need to do everything we can to optimize things
as much as possible. Since the over all goal is parent pointers, attr
activity will increase quite a bit. So I would support this change.

Ok, thanks for all the explaining. I will try out your set with mine,

Do you have a git tree with all applied somewhere to help playing
with this series?

Not yet, because the patch stack it is build on top of has a bunch
of other WIP, not-quite-fully-working stuff in it so I haven't been
able to run it through a full fstests pass yet (hence the RFC tag).
The next version (hopefully early next week) will be rebased
directly on top of the CIL scalability work and I'll push out those
branches into a git tree when it's actually been more fully tested
and survived some recovery stress looping.
Cheers,
Dave.
