2011-10-11xfs: reduce ioend latencyChristoph Hellwig
There is no reason to queue up ioends for processing in user context unless we actually need it. Just complete ioends that do not convert unwritten extents or need a size update from the end_io context.

2011-10-11xfs: defer AIO/DIO completionsChristoph Hellwig
We really shouldn't complete AIO or DIO requests until we have finished the unwritten extent conversion and size update. This means fsync never has to pick up any ioends as all work has been completed when signalling I/O completion.

2011-10-11xfs: call xfs_buf_delwri_queue directlyChristoph Hellwig
Unify the ways we add buffers to the delwri queue by always calling xfs_buf_delwri_queue directly. The xfs_bdwrite functions is removed and opencoded in its callers, and the two places setting XBF_DELWRI while a buffer is locked and expecting xfs_buf_unlock to pick it up are converted to call xfs_buf_delwri_queue directly, too. Also replace the XFS_BUF_UNDELAYWRITE macro with direct calls to xfs_buf_delwri_dequeue to make the explicit queuing/dequeuing more obvious.

Do not transfer a reference held by the caller to the buffer on the list, or decrement it in xfs_buf_delwri_queue, but instead grab a new reference if needed, and let the caller drop its own reference. Also move setting of the XBF_DELWRI and XBF_ASYNC flags into xfs_buf_delwri_queue, and only do it if needed. Note that for now xfs_buf_unlock already has XBF_DELWRI, but that will change in the following patches.

2011-10-11xfs: don't serialise adjacent concurrent direct IO appending writesDave Chinner
For append write workloads, extending the file requires a certain amount of exclusive locking to be done up front to ensure sanity in things like ensuring that we've zeroed any allocated regions between the old EOF and the start of the new IO. For single threads, this typically isn't a problem, and for large IOs we don't serialise enough for it to be a problem for two threads on really fast block devices. However for smaller IO and larger thread counts we have a problem. Take 4 concurrent sequential, single block sized and aligned IOs. After the first IO is submitted but before it completes, we end up with this state: IO 1 IO 2 IO 3 IO 4 +-------+-------+-------+-------+ ^ ^ | | | | | | | \- ip->i_new_size \- ip->i_size And the IO is done without exclusive locking because offset <= ip->i_size. When we submit IO 2, we see offset > ip->i_size, and grab the IO lock exclusive, because there is a chance we need to do EOF zeroing. However, there is already an IO in progress that avoids the need for IO zeroing because offset <= ip->i_new_size. hence we could avoid holding the IO lock exlcusive for this. Hence after submission of the second IO, we'd end up this state: IO 1 IO 2 IO 3 IO 4 +-------+-------+-------+-------+ ^ ^ | | | | | | | \- ip->i_new_size \- ip->i_size There is no need to grab the i_mutex of the IO lock in exclusive mode if we don't need to invalidate the page cache. Taking these locks on every direct IO effective serialises them as taking the IO lock in exclusive mode has to wait for all shared holders to drop the lock. That only happens when IO is complete, so effective it prevents dispatch of concurrent direct IO writes to the same inode. And so you can see that for the third concurrent IO, we'd avoid exclusive locking for the same reason we avoided the exclusive lock for the second IO. Fixing this is a bit more complex than that, because we need to hold a write-submission local value of ip->i_new_size to that clearing the value is only done if no other thread has updated it before our IO completes.....

2011-10-11xfs: don't serialise direct IO reads on page cache checksDave Chinner
There is no need to grab the i_mutex of the IO lock in exclusive mode if we don't need to invalidate the page cache. Taking these locks on every direct IO effective serialises them as taking the IO lock in exclusive mode has to wait for all shared holders to drop the lock. That only happens when IO is complete, so effective it prevents dispatch of concurrent direct IO reads to the same inode. Fix this by taking the IO lock shared to check the page cache state, and only then drop it and take the IO lock exclusively if there is work to be done. Hence for the normal direct IO case, no exclusive locking will occur.

2011-09-01xfs: fix ->write_inode return valuesChristoph Hellwig
Currently we always redirty an inode that was attempted to be written out synchronously but has been cleaned by an AIL pushed internall, which is rather bogus. Fix that by doing the i_update_core check early on and return 0 for it. Also include async calls for it, as doing any work for those is just as pointless. While we're at it also fix the sign for the EIO return in case of a filesystem shutdown, and fix the completely non-sensical locking around xfs_log_inode.

2011-08-31xfs: fix xfs_mark_inode_dirty during umountChristoph Hellwig
During umount we do not add a dirty inode to the lru and wait for it to become clean first, but force writeback of data and metadata with I_WILL_FREE set. Currently there is no way for XFS to detect that the inode has been redirtied for metadata operations, as we skip the mark_inode_dirty call during teardown. Fix this by setting i_update_core nanually in that case, so that the inode gets flushed during inode reclaim. Alternatively we could enable calling mark_inode_dirty for inodes in I_WILL_FREE state, and let the VFS dirty tracking handle this. I decided against this as we will get better I/O patterns from reclaim compared to the synchronous writeout in write_inode_now, and always marking the inode dirty in some way from xfs_mark_inode_dirty is a better safetly net in either case.

In xfs_ail_splice(), if a cursor is provided it is updated to point to the last item on the list being spliced into the AIL. But if the AIL was found to be empty, the cursor (if provided) is just initialized instead. There is no reason the empty AIL case needs to be treated any differently.
