[PATCH 44/45] xfs: xlog_sync() manually adjusts grant head space

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>

When xlog_sync() rounds off the tail the iclog that is being
flushed, it manually subtracts that space from the grant heads. This
space is actually reserved by the transaction ticket that covers
the xlog_sync() call from xlog_write(), but we don't plumb the
ticket down far enough for it to account for the space consumed in
the current log ticket.

The grant heads are hot, so we really should be accounting this to
the ticket is we can, rather than adding thousands of extra grant
head updates every CIL commit.

Interestingly, this actually indicates a potential log space overrun
can occur when we force the log. By the time that xfs_log_force()
pushes out an active iclog and consumes the roundoff space, the
reservation for that roundoff space has been returned to the grant
heads and is no longer covered by a reservation. In theory the
roundoff added to log force on an already full log could push the
write head past the tail. In practice, the CIL commit that writes to
the log and needs the iclog pushed will have reserved space for
roundoff, so when it releases the ticket there will still be
physical space for the roundoff to be committed to the log, even
though it is no longer reserved. This roundoff won't be enough space
to allow a transaction to be woken if the log is full, so overruns
should not actually occur in practice.

That said, it indicates that we should not release the CIL context
log ticket until after we've released the commit iclog. It also
means that xlog_sync() still needs the direct grant head
manipulation if we don't provide it with a ticket. Log forces are
rare when we are in fast paths running 1.5 million transactions/s
that make the grant heads hot, so let's optimise the hot case and
pass CIL log tickets down to the xlog_sync() code.
