Fibration is a great way to decrease fragmentation and increase
throughput.
Currently there are 4 fibration plugins, lex, dot.o, ext_1 and
ext_3
and they all have their upsides and downsides.

Proposed fibration plugin combines them all so that it combines
files
with same extensions for 1, 2. 3 and 4 character extension  in
groups
and sorts them in same fiber group.

With this fibration plugin all eg. xvid files would be in same
group
in folder on disk sorted alphabetically


What application wants all xvid files to be in the same group?
Do you have any benchmark numbers which show advantages
of the new plugin?

Xvid files are just an example.
ext_1234 fibration would be equal to sum of ext_1, ext_2, ext_3,
ext_4
and dot_o in one.

In currently default plugin (dot_o) we sort all files by name from
the
start except .o files which we put at the end.
So if we had a source directory with .c .h and .o files in it
files
by
extension would be sorted like: chchchchchchchchoooooooooooooo
I presumed that in some use cases it is better to have files be
sorted
ccccccccccchhhhhhhhhhhhhhoooooooooooo

Hypothesis is to use the premise that files of same extension are
in
same order of size to reduce fragmentation.


What kind of fragmentation you are talking about?
Internal (which results in "dead" disk space), or
external (which results in a lot of "extents")?

External

Edward.


If we group files of same extension in groups in one directory,
when
we write files of same extension after deletion of some files of
one
extension  their group would be in same order as the deleted file
so
they would be written in similar place and occupy the 'hole' of
similar size.


So "similar" means the same order, that is file sizes can differ in 2
times?
TBH, I don't see what can be deduced from this assumption ;)
It can happen that new file either doesn't fit to that hole, or
occupies
too
small place, so that next file won't fit to the rest of the hole..

OFC we can never guarantee that the new file completely fits the hole
(especially as we go through compression in next layer) but for both
smaller and larger file than a hole we would have higher probability
for less extents for situations with 2 or more types of files in a
directory. For one type of file in a directory behavior would be the
same as dot_o and ext_1 plugin.


I should upset you: fibration plugins are about mapping of a semantic
tree to the storage tree. Simply speaking, they manage mapping
object-> key, which has nothing common with real locations on diТак ты
уже не ищешь? sk.

This is a block allocator, who assigns disk addresses to nodes of the
storage tree (right before writing them to disk at flush time).
And I am sure that block allocator doesn't care about fibration groups.

I strongly not recommend you to experiment with block allocator.
Simply because I know how many people killed a lot of time without
results.
Then what is this comment in the beginning of kassign.c about:


* In reiser4 every piece of file system data and meta-data has a key.
Keys
* are used to store information in and retrieve it from reiser4 internal
* tree. In addition to this, keys define _ordering_ of all file system
* information: things having close keys are placed into the same or
* neighboring (in the tree order) nodes of the tree. As our block
allocator
* tries to respect tree order (see flush.c), keys also define order in
which
* things are laid out on the disk, and hence, affect performance
directly.

I can not find where in the code block allocator respects key ordering.
Once you find it, then let me know..

Let me prove it in a way that is possible for me without investing
years in learning R4 internals ;)

As we can see with ext_1_fibre files were sorted:
1.a
3.a
2.b
4.b

With dot_o_fibre:

1.a
2.b
3.a
4.b

Thus, respect for fibration groups is also under a big question.
TBH, I prefer to not kill time for projects basing on questionable
assumptions and deductions. Just because there is a lot of
interesting TODOs with tangible results.

OK
I'll get back to automatic R4 git tree lkp-tests project.

I planned to make two testing steps:
1. Build, functional and stress testing under VM with R4 partition on RAM disk

Sounds good.

2. If it passes step 1 then some performance testing under VM with R4
on real partition

Performance testing under VM (or containers) is perversion.
Either use a real machine, or don't test at all.


I'll probably use Ubuntu for VM, although I'm not familiar with Debian
clones, but automatic testing suite supports it.
I'm more for Gentoo but lkp-tests doesn't support it.

Use Fedora if possible, so that we'll be able to synchronize things..

Thanks,
Edward.


I'll probably run 4.5 to 4.9 patches first to see what I get.
