448d7aaabc Identify locks flagged by lockdep
When running a kernel with CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y, lockdep reports possible
recursive locking in some cases and possible circular locking dependency
in others, within the SPL and ZFS modules.

This patch uses a mutex type defined in SPL, MUTEX_NOLOCKDEP, to mark
such mutexes when they are initialized.  This mutex type causes
attempts to take or release those locks to be wrapped in lockdep_off()
and lockdep_on() calls to silence the dependency checker and allow the
use of lock_stats to examine contention.

For RW locks, it uses an analogous lock type, RW_NOLOCKDEP.

The goal is that these locks are ultimately changed back to type
MUTEX_DEFAULT or RW_DEFAULT, after the locks are annotated to reflect
their relationship (e.g. z_name_lock below) or any real problem with the
lock dependencies are fixed.

Some of the affected locks are:

tc_open_lock:
=============
This is an array of locks, all with same name, which txg_quiesce must
take all of in order to move txg to next state.  All default to the same
lockdep class, and so to lockdep appears recursive.

zp->z_name_lock:
================
In zfs_rmdir,
        dzp = znode for the directory (input to zfs_dirent_lock)
        zp  = znode for the entry being removed (output of zfs_dirent_lock)

zfs_rmdir()->zfs_dirent_lock() takes z_name_lock in dzp
zfs_rmdir() takes z_name_lock in zp

Since both dzp and zp are type znode_t, the locks have the same default
class, and lockdep considers it a possible recursive lock attempt.

l->l_rwlock:
============
zap_expand_leaf() sometimes creates two new zap leaf structures, via
these call paths:

zap_deref_leaf()->zap_get_leaf_byblk()->zap_leaf_open()
zap_expand_leaf()->zap_create_leaf()->zap_expand_leaf()->zap_create_leaf()

Because both zap_leaf_open() and zap_create_leaf() initialize
l->l_rwlock in their (separate) leaf structures, the lockdep class is
the same, and the linux kernel believes these might both be the same
lock, and emits a possible recursive lock warning.

6fe53787f3 Fix vdev_queue_aggregate() deadlock
This deadlock may manifest itself in slightly different ways but
at the core it is caused by a memory allocation blocking on file-
system reclaim in the zio pipeline.  This is normally impossible
because zio_execute() disables filesystem reclaim by setting
PF_FSTRANS on the thread.  However, kmem cache allocations may
still indirectly block on file system reclaim while holding the
critical vq->vq_lock as shown below.

To resolve this issue zio_buf_alloc_flags() is introduced which
allocation flags to be passed.  This can then be used in
vdev_queue_aggregate() with KM_NOSLEEP when allocating the
aggregate IO buffer.  Since aggregating the IO is purely a
performance optimization we want this to either succeed or fail
quickly.  Trying too hard to allocate this memory under the
vq->vq_lock can negatively impact performance and result in
this deadlock.

* z_wr_iss
zio_vdev_io_start
  vdev_queue_io -> Takes vq->vq_lock
    vdev_queue_io_to_issue
      vdev_queue_aggregate
        zio_buf_alloc -> Waiting on spl_kmem_cache process

* z_wr_int

  vdev_queue_io_done
    mutex_lock -> Waiting on vq->vq_lock held by z_wr_iss

* txg_sync

b58986eebf Use large stacks when available
While stack size will vary by architecture it has historically defaulted to
8K on x86_64 systems.  However, as of Linux 3.15 the default thread stack
size was increased to 16K.  These kernels are now the default in most non-
enterprise distributions which means we no longer need to assume 8K stacks.

This patch takes advantage of that fact by appropriately reverting stack
conservation changes which were made to ensure stability.  Changes which
may have had a negative impact on performance for certain workloads.  This
also has the side effect of bringing the code slightly more in line with
upstream.

Porting Notes:

* Included in this patch is a tiny ISP2() cleanup in zio_init() from
Illumos 5255.

* Unlike the upstream Illumos commit this patch does not impose an
arbitrary 128K block size limit on volumes.  Volumes, like filesystems,
are limited by the zfs_max_recordsize=1M module option.

* By default the maximum record size is limited to 1M by the module
option zfs_max_recordsize.  This value may be safely increased up to
16M which is the largest block size supported by the on-disk format.
At the moment, 1M blocks clearly offer a significant performance
improvement but the benefits of going beyond this for the majority
of workloads are less clear.

* The illumos version of this patch increased DMU_MAX_ACCESS to 32M.
This was determined not to be large enough when using 16M blocks
because the zfs_make_xattrdir() function will fail (EFBIG) when
assigning a TX.  This was immediately observed under Linux because
all newly created files must have a security xattr created and
that was failing.  Therefore, we've set DMU_MAX_ACCESS to 64M.

* On 32-bit platforms a hard limit of 1M is set for blocks due
to the limited virtual address space.  We should be able to relax
this one the ABD patches are merged.

81971b137a Revert "SA spill block cache"
The SA spill_cache was originally introduced to avoid the need to
perform large kmem or vmem allocations.  Instead a small dedicated
cache of preallocated SA buffers was kept.

This solution was viable while the maximum block size was limited
to 128K.  But with the planned increase of the maximum block size
to 16M callers need to migrate to the zio_buf_alloc().  However,
they should be aware this interface is expected to change again
once the zio buffers are fully backed by scatter-gather lists.

Alternately, if the callers know these buffers will never be large
or be infrequently accessed they may kmem_alloc() or vmem_alloc()
the needed temporary space.

This change has the additional benegit of bringing the code back
inline with the upstream Illumos source.

Commit 86dd0fd added preallocated I/O buffers.  This is no longer
required after the recent kmem changes designed to make our memory
allocation interfaces behave more like those found on Illumos.  A
deadlock in this situation is no longer possible.

However, these allocations still have the potential to be expensive.
So a potential future optimization might be to perform then KM_NOSLEEP
so that they either succeed of fail quicky.  Either case is acceptable
here because we can safely abort the aggregation.

79c76d5b65 Change KM_PUSHPAGE -> KM_SLEEP
By marking DMU transaction processing contexts with PF_FSTRANS
we can revert the KM_PUSHPAGE -> KM_SLEEP changes.  This brings
us back in line with upstream.  In some cases this means simply
swapping the flags back.  For others fnvlist_alloc() was replaced
by nvlist_alloc(..., KM_PUSHPAGE) and must be reverted back to
fnvlist_alloc() which assumes KM_SLEEP.

The one place KM_PUSHPAGE is kept is when allocating ARC buffers
which allows us to dip in to reserved memory.  This is again the
same as upstream.

Callers of kmem_alloc() which passed the KM_NODEBUG flag to suppress

appropriate.  The updated vmem_alloc() call will not print a warning

A careful reader will notice that not all callers have been changed

This was possible because the default warning threshold has been
increased to 32k.  This is desirable because it minimizes the need

Porting notes:

Previous stack-reduction efforts in traverse_visitb() caused a fair
number of un-mergable pieces of code.  This patch should reduce its
stack footprint a bit more.

The new local bptree_entry_phys_t in bptree_add() is dynamically-allocated
using kmem_zalloc() for the purpose of stack reduction.

The new global zfs_free_leak_on_eio has been defined as an integer
rather than a boolean_t as was the case with the related zfs_recover
global.  Also, zfs_free_leak_on_eio's definition has been inserted into
zfs_debug.c for consistency with the existing definition of zfs_recover.
Illumos placed it in spa_misc.c.

This reverts commit 91579709fc which
limited the asynchronous dispatch to kernel space.  We want to do
this for two reasons:

1) While we have slightly more headroom in user space excessively
   deep stacks have been observed while running ztest, see #2293.

2) Removing this conditional makes the pipeline behave consistently
   regardless of if it's executing in kernel space or user space.
   This way we're more likely to uncover subtle issues with ztest.

6795a698f4 Use default slab types
We should not override the default memory type of the kmem cache.  This
was done previously to force certain objects which were slightly over
object size limit cut off in to KMC_KMEM caches for better performance.

The zfsonlinux/spl#356 patch slightly increases the default cut off
from 511 bytes 1024 bytes for x86_64.  This means there is long longer
a need to override the default for the caches.  And since the default
values are now being used the new spl_kmem_cache_slab_limit and
spl_kmem_cache_kmem_limit tunables will apply to all kmem caches.

The following is a list of caches that will be impacted:

                  | object size   | forced type   | default type
----------------- | ------------- | ------------- | --------------
dnode_t           | 936 bytes     | KMC_KMEM      | KMC_KMEM
zio_cache         | 1104 bytes    | *KMC_KMEM     | *KMC_VMEM
zio_link_cache    | 48 bytes      | KMC_KMEM      | KMC_KMEM
zio_vdev_cache    | 131088 bytes  | KMC_VMEM      | KMC_VMEM
zio_buf_512       | 512 bytes     | KMC_KMEM      | KMC_KMEM
zio_data_buf_512  | 512 bytes     | KMC_KMEM      | KMC_KMEM

zio_data_buf_1024 | 1024 bytes    | +KMC_VMEM     | +KMC_KMEM

* Cache memory type will change from KMC_KMEM to KMC_VMEM.
+ Cache memory type will change from KMC_VMEM to KMC_KMEM.

e8b96c6007 Illumos #4045 write throttle & i/o scheduler performance work
4045 zfs write throttle & i/o scheduler performance work

1. The ZFS i/o scheduler (vdev_queue.c) now divides i/os into 5 classes: sync
read, sync write, async read, async write, and scrub/resilver.  The scheduler
issues a number of concurrent i/os from each class to the device.  Once a class
has been selected, an i/o is selected from this class using either an elevator
algorithem (async, scrub classes) or FIFO (sync classes).  The number of
concurrent async write i/os is tuned dynamically based on i/o load, to achieve
good sync i/o latency when there is not a high load of writes, and good write
throughput when there is.  See the block comment in vdev_queue.c (reproduced
below) for more details.

2. The write throttle (dsl_pool_tempreserve_space() and
txg_constrain_throughput()) is rewritten to produce much more consistent delays
when under constant load.  The new write throttle is based on the amount of
dirty data, rather than guesses about future performance of the system.  When
there is a lot of dirty data, each transaction (e.g. write() syscall) will be
delayed by the same small amount.  This eliminates the "brick wall of wait"
that the old write throttle could hit, causing all transactions to wait several
seconds until the next txg opens.  One of the keys to the new write throttle is
decrementing the amount of dirty data as i/o completes, rather than at the end
of spa_sync().  Note that the write throttle is only applied once the i/o
scheduler is issuing the maximum number of outstanding async writes.  See the
block comments in dsl_pool.c and above dmu_tx_delay() (reproduced below) for
more details.

This diff has several other effects, including:

 * the commonly-tuned global variable zfs_vdev_max_pending has been removed;
use per-class zfs_vdev_*_max_active values or zfs_vdev_max_active instead.

 * the size of each txg (meaning the amount of dirty data written, and thus the
time it takes to write out) is now controlled differently.  There is no longer
an explicit time goal; the primary determinant is amount of dirty data.
Systems that are under light or medium load will now often see that a txg is
always syncing, but the impact to performance (e.g. read latency) is minimal.
Tune zfs_dirty_data_max and zfs_dirty_data_sync to control this.

 * zio_taskq_batch_pct = 75 -- Only use 75% of all CPUs for compression,
checksum, etc.  This improves latency by not allowing these CPU-intensive tasks
to consume all CPU (on machines with at least 4 CPU's; the percentage is
rounded up).

--matt

APPENDIX: problems with the current i/o scheduler

The current ZFS i/o scheduler (vdev_queue.c) is deadline based.  The problem
with this is that if there are always i/os pending, then certain classes of
i/os can see very long delays.

For example, if there are always synchronous reads outstanding, then no async
writes will be serviced until they become "past due".  One symptom of this
situation is that each pass of the txg sync takes at least several seconds
(typically 3 seconds).

If many i/os become "past due" (their deadline is in the past), then we must
service all of these overdue i/os before any new i/os.  This happens when we
enqueue a batch of async writes for the txg sync, with deadlines 2.5 seconds in
the future.  If we can't complete all the i/os in 2.5 seconds (e.g. because
there were always reads pending), then these i/os will become past due.  Now we
must service all the "async" writes (which could be hundreds of megabytes)
before we service any reads, introducing considerable latency to synchronous
i/os (reads or ZIL writes).

Notes on porting to ZFS on Linux:

- zio_t gained new members io_physdone and io_phys_children.  Because
  object caches in the Linux port call the constructor only once at
  allocation time, objects may contain residual data when retrieved
  from the cache. Therefore zio_create() was updated to zero out the two
  new fields.

- vdev_mirror_pending() relied on the depth of the per-vdev pending queue
  (vq->vq_pending_tree) to select the least-busy leaf vdev to read from.
  This tree has been replaced by vq->vq_active_tree which is now used
  for the same purpose.

- vdev_queue_init() used the value of zfs_vdev_max_pending to determine
  the number of vdev I/O buffers to pre-allocate.  That global no longer
  exists, so we instead use the sum of the *_max_active values for each of
  the five I/O classes described above.

- The Illumos implementation of dmu_tx_delay() delays a transaction by
  sleeping in condition variable embedded in the thread
  (curthread->t_delay_cv).  We do not have an equivalent CV to use in
  Linux, so this change replaced the delay logic with a wrapper called
  zfs_sleep_until(). This wrapper could be adopted upstream and in other
  downstream ports to abstract away operating system-specific delay logic.

- These tunables are added as module parameters, and descriptions added
  to the zfs-module-parameters.5 man page.

  spa_asize_inflation
  zfs_deadman_synctime_ms
  zfs_vdev_max_active
  zfs_vdev_async_write_active_min_dirty_percent
  zfs_vdev_async_write_active_max_dirty_percent
  zfs_vdev_async_read_max_active
  zfs_vdev_async_read_min_active
  zfs_vdev_async_write_max_active
  zfs_vdev_async_write_min_active
  zfs_vdev_scrub_max_active
  zfs_vdev_scrub_min_active
  zfs_vdev_sync_read_max_active
  zfs_vdev_sync_read_min_active
  zfs_vdev_sync_write_max_active
  zfs_vdev_sync_write_min_active
  zfs_dirty_data_max_percent
  zfs_delay_min_dirty_percent
  zfs_dirty_data_max_max_percent
  zfs_dirty_data_max
  zfs_dirty_data_max_max
  zfs_dirty_data_sync
  zfs_delay_scale

  The latter four have type unsigned long, whereas they are uint64_t in
  Illumos.  This accommodates Linux's module_param() supported types, but
  means they may overflow on 32-bit architectures.

  The values zfs_dirty_data_max and zfs_dirty_data_max_max are the most
  likely to overflow on 32-bit systems, since they express physical RAM
  sizes in bytes.  In fact, Illumos initializes zfs_dirty_data_max_max to
  2^32 which does overflow. To resolve that, this port instead initializes
  it in arc_init() to 25% of physical RAM, and adds the tunable
  zfs_dirty_data_max_max_percent to override that percentage.  While this
  solution doesn't completely avoid the overflow issue, it should be a
  reasonable default for most systems, and the minority of affected
  systems can work around the issue by overriding the defaults.

- Fixed reversed logic in comment above zfs_delay_scale declaration.

- Clarified comments in vdev_queue.c regarding when per-queue minimums take
  effect.

- Replaced dmu_tx_write_limit in the dmu_tx kstat file
  with dmu_tx_dirty_delay and dmu_tx_dirty_over_max.  The first counts
  how many times a transaction has been delayed because the pool dirty
  data has exceeded zfs_delay_min_dirty_percent.  The latter counts how
  many times the pool dirty data has exceeded zfs_dirty_data_max (which
  we expect to never happen).

- The original patch would have regressed the bug fixed in
  zfsonlinux/zfs@c418410, which prevented users from setting the
  zfs_vdev_aggregation_limit tuning larger than SPA_MAXBLOCKSIZE.
  A similar fix is added to vdev_queue_aggregate().

- In vdev_queue_io_to_issue(), dynamically allocate 'zio_t search' on the
  heap instead of the stack.  In Linux we can't afford such large
  structures on the stack.

34e143323e Fix z_wr_iss_h zio_execute() import hang
Because we need to be more frugal about our stack usage under
Linux.  The __zio_execute() function was modified to re-dispatch
zios to a ZIO_TASKQ_ISSUE thread when we're in a context which
is known to be stack heavy.  Those two contexts are the sync
thread and what ever thread is performing spa initialization.

Unfortunately, this change introduced an unlikely bug which can
result in a zio being re-dispatched indefinitely and never being
executed.  If during spa initialization we handle a zio with
ZIO_PRIORITY_NOW it will be moved to the high priority queue.
When __zio_execute() is called again for the zio it will mis-
interpret the context and re-dispatch it again.  The system
will get stuck spinning re-dispatching the zio and making no
forward progress.

To fix this rare issue __zio_execute() has been updated not
to re-dispatch zios on either the ZIO_TASKQ_ISSUE or
ZIO_TASKQ_ISSUE_HIGH task queues.

In practice this issue was rarely reported and can usually
be fixed by rebooting the system and importing the pool again.

with a tunable parameters:

    int zfs_sync_pass_deferred_free = 2; /* defer frees starting in this pass */
    int zfs_sync_pass_dont_compress = 5; /* don't compress starting in this pass */
    int zfs_sync_pass_rewrite = 2;       /* rewrite new bps starting in this pass */

This commit makes these tunables available as module parameters
in Linux.  They should only be used for performance analysis
because changing them can result in subtle and pathological
performance problems.

ZFS should proactively evict freed blocks from the cache.

On dcenter, we saw that we were caching ~256GB of metadata, while the
pool only had <4GB of metadata on disk.  We were wasting about half the
system's RAM (252GB) on blocks that have been freed.

Even though these freed blocks will never be used again, and thus will
eventually be evicted, this causes us to use memory inefficiently for 2
reasons:

1. A block that is freed has no chance of being accessed again, but will
be kept in memory preferentially to a block that was accessed before it
(and is thus older) but has not been freed and thus has at least some
chance of being accessed again.

2. We partition the ARC into several buckets:
user data that has been accessed only once (MRU)
metadata that has been accessed only once (MRU)
user data that has been accessed more than once (MFU)
metadata that has been accessed more than once (MFU)

The user data vs metadata split is somewhat arbitrary, and the primary
control on how much memory is used to cache data vs metadata is to
simply try to keep the proportion the same as it has been in the past
(each bucket "evicts against" itself).  The secondary control is to
evict data before evicting metadata.

Because of this bucketing, we may end up with one bucket mostly
containing freed blocks that are very old, while another bucket has more
recently accessed, still-allocated blocks.  Data in the useful bucket
(with still-allocated blocks) may be evicted in preference to data in
the useless bucket (with old, freed blocks).

On dcenter, we saw that the MFU metadata bucket was 230MB, while the MFU
data bucket was 27GB and the MRU metadata bucket was 256GB.  However,
the vast majority of data in the MRU metadata bucket (256GB) was freed
blocks, and thus useless.  Meanwhile, the MFU metadata bucket (230MB)
was constantly evicting useful blocks that will be soon needed.

The problem of cache segmentation is a larger problem that needs more
investigation.  However, if we stop caching freed blocks, it should
reduce the impact of this more fundamental issue.

Notes for Linux port:

Earlier commit 08d08eb reduced contention on this taskq lock by simply
reducing the number of z_fr_iss threads from 100 to one-per-CPU.  We
also optimized the taskq implementation in zfsonlinux/spl@3c6ed54.
These changes significantly improved unlink performance to acceptable
levels.

This patch further reduces time spent spinning on this lock by
randomly dispatching the work items over multiple independent task
queues.  The Illumos ZFS developers stated that this lock contention
only arose after "3329 spa_sync() spends 10-20% of its time in
spa_free_sync_cb()" was landed.  It's not clear if 3329 affects the
Linux port or not.  I didn't see spa_free_sync_cb() show up in
oprofile sessions while unlinking large files, but I may just not
have used the right test case.

I tested unlinking a 1 TB of data with and without the patch and
didn't observe a meaningful difference in elapsed time.  However,
oprofile showed that the percent time spent in taskq_thread() was
reduced from about 16% to about 5%.  Aside from a possible slight
performance benefit this may be worth landing if only for the sake of
maintaining consistency with upstream.
