* Illumos 5497 - lock contention on arcs_mtxPrakash Surya2015-06-111-0/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reviewed by: George Wilson <[email protected]> Reviewed by: Matthew Ahrens <[email protected]> Reviewed by: Richard Elling <[email protected]> Approved by: Dan McDonald <[email protected]> Porting notes and other significant code changes: The illumos 5368 patch (ARC should cache more metadata), which was never picked up by ZoL, is mostly reverted by this patch. Since ZoL relies on the kernel asynchronously calling the shrinker to actually reap memory, the shrinker wakes up arc_reclaim_waiters_cv every time it runs. The arc_adapt_thread() function no longer calls arc_do_user_evicts() since the newly-added arc_user_evicts_thread() calls it periodically. Notable conflicting ZoL commits which conflicted with this patch or whose effects are either duplicated or un-done by this patch: 302f753 - Integrate ARC more tightly with Linux 39e055c - Adjust arc_p based on "bytes" in arc_shrink f521ce1 - Allow "arc_p" to drop to zero or grow to "arc_c" 77765b5 - Remove "arc_meta_used" from arc_adjust calculation 94520ca - Prune metadata from ghost lists in arc_adjust_meta Trace support for multilist_insert() and multilist_remove() has been added and produces the following output: fio-12498 [077] .... 112936.448324: zfs_multilist__insert: ml { offset 240 numsublists 80 sublistidx 63 } fio-12498 [077] .... 112936.448347: zfs_multilist__remove: ml { offset 240 numsublists 80 sublistidx 29 } The following arcstats have been removed: recycle_miss - Used by arcstat.py and arc_summary.py, both of which have been updated appropriately. l2_writes_hdr_miss The following arcstats have been added: evict_not_enough - Number of times arc_evict_state() was unable to evict enough buffers to reach its target amount. evict_l2_skip - Number of times arc_evict_hdr() skipped eviction because it was being written to the l2arc. l2_writes_lock_retry - Replaces l2_writes_hdr_miss. Number of times l2arc_write_done() failed to acquire hash_lock (and re-tries). arc_meta_min - Shows the value of the zfs_arc_meta_min module parameter (see below). The "index" column of the "dbuf" kstat has been removed since it doesn't have a direct analog in the new multilist scheme. Additional multilist- related stats could be added in the future but would likely require extensions to the mulilist API. The following module parameters have been added: zfs_arc_evict_batch_limit - Number of ARC headers to free per sub-list before moving on to the next sub-list. zfs_arc_meta_min - Enforce a floor on the amount of metadata in the ARC. zfs_arc_num_sublists_per_state - Number of multilist sub-lists per ARC state. zfs_arc_overflow_shift - Controls amount by which the ARC must exceed the target size to be considered "overflowing".

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. Ported-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #354

* Fix arc_adjust_meta() behaviorBrian Behlendorf2015-03-201-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The goal of this function is to evict enough meta data buffers from the ARC in order to enforce the arc_meta_limit. Achieving this is slightly more complicated than it appears because it is common for data buffers to have holds on meta data buffers. In addition, dnode meta data buffers will be held by the dnodes in the block preventing them from being freed. This means we can't simply traverse the ARC and expect to always find enough unheld meta data buffer to release. Therefore, this function has been updated to make alternating passes over the ARC releasing data buffers and then newly unheld meta data buffers. This ensures forward progress is maintained and arc_meta_used will decrease. Normally this is sufficient, but if required the ARC will call the registered prune callbacks causing dentry and inodes to be dropped from the VFS cache. This will make dnode meta data buffers available for reclaim. The number of total restarts in limited by zfs_arc_meta_adjust_restarts to prevent spinning in the rare case where all meta data is pinned.

* Restructure per-filesystem reclaimBrian Behlendorf2015-03-201-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Originally when the ARC prune callback was introduced the idea was to register a single callback for the ZPL. The ARC could invoke this call back if it needed the ZPL to drop dentries, inodes, or other cache objects which might be pinning buffers in the ARC. The ZPL would iterate over all ZFS super blocks and perform the reclaim. For the most part this design has worked well but due to limitations in 2.6.35 and earlier kernels there were some problems. This patch is designed to address those issues. 1) iterate_supers_type() is not provided by all kernels which makes it impossible to safely iterate over all zpl_fs_type filesystems in a single callback. The most straight forward and portable way to resolve this is to register a callback per-filesystem during mount. The arc_*_prune_callback() functions have always supported multiple callbacks so this is functionally a very small change. 2) Commit 050d22b removed the non-portable shrink_dcache_memory() and shrink_icache_memory() functions and didn't replace them with equivalent functionality. This meant that for Linux 3.1 and older kernels the ARC had no mechanism to drop dentries and inodes from the caches if needed. This patch adds that missing functionality by calling shrink_dcache_parent() to release dentries which may be pinning inodes. This will result in all unused cache entries being dropped which is a bit heavy handed but it's the only interface available for old kernels. 3) A zpl_drop_inode() callback is registered for kernels older than 2.6.35 which do not support the .evict_inode callback. This ensures that when the last reference on an inode is dropped it is immediately removed from the cache. If this isn't done than inode can end up on the global unused LRU with no mechanism available to ZFS to drop them. Since the ARC buffers are not dropped the hottest inodes can still be recreated without performing disk IO.

Unfortunately, this heuristic didn't contain any information about the make-up of that free space, which meant we could keep preferring and loading a highly fragmented space map that wouldn't actually have enough contiguous space to satisfy the allocation; then unloading that space_map and repeating the process. This change modifies the space_map's to store additional information about the contiguous space in the space_map, so that we can use this information to make a better decision about which space_map to load. This requires reallocating all space_map objects to increase their bonus buffer size sizes enough to fit the new metadata. The above feature can be enabled via a new feature flag introduced by this change: com.delphix:spacemap_histogram In addition to the above, this patch allows the space_map block size to be increase. Currently the block size is set to be 4K in size, which has certain implications including the following: * 4K sector devices will not see any compression benefit * large space_maps require more metadata on-disk * large space_maps require more time to load (typically random reads) Now the space_map block size can adjust as needed up to the maximum size set via the space_map_max_blksz variable. A bug was fixed which resulted in potentially leaking an object when removing a mirrored log device. The previous logic for vdev_remove() did not deal with removing top-level vdevs that are interior vdevs (i.e. mirror) correctly. The problem would occur when removing a mirrored log device, and result in the DTL space map object being leaked; because top-level vdevs don't have DTL space map objects associated with them.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setting a limit on the minimum value of "arc_p" has been shown to have detrimental effects on the arc hit rate for certain "metadata" intensive workloads. Specifically, this has been exhibited with a workload that constantly dirties new "metadata" but also frequently touches a "small" amount of mfu data (e.g. mkdir's). What is seen is that the new anon data throttles the mfu list to a negligible size (because arc_p > anon + mru in arc_get_data_buf), even though the mfu ghost list receives a constant stream of hits. To remedy this, arc_p is now allowed to drop to zero if the algorithm deems it necessary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For specific workloads consisting mainly of mfu data and new anon data buffers, the aggressive growth of arc_p found in the arc_get_data_buf() function can have detrimental effects on the mfu list size and ghost list hit rate. Running a workload consisting of two processes: * Process 1 is creating many small files * Process 2 is tar'ing a directory consisting of many small files I've seen arc_p and the mru grow to their maximum size, while the mru ghost list receives 100K times fewer hits than the mfu ghost list. Ideally, as the mfu ghost list receives hits, arc_p should be driven down and the size of the mfu should increase. Given the specific workload I was testing with, the mfu list size should grow to a point where almost no mfu ghost list hits would occur. Unfortunately, this does not happen because the newly dirtied anon buffers constancy drive arc_p to its maximum value and keep it there (effectively prioritizing the mru list and starving the mfu list down to a negligible size). The logic to increment arc_p from within the arc_get_data_buf() function was introduced many years ago in this upstream commit: commit 641fbdae3a027d12b3c3dcd18927ccafae6d58bc Author: maybee <none@none> Date: Wed Dec 20 15:46:12 2006 -0800 6505658 target MRU size (arc.p) needs to be adjusted more aggressively and since I don't fully understand the motivation for the change, I am reluctant to completely remove it. As a way to test out how it's removal might affect performance, I've disabled that code by default, but left it tunable via a module option. Thus, if its removal is found to be grossly detrimental for certain workloads, it can be re-enabled on the fly, without a code change.

* vdev_id: support per-channel slot mappingsNed Bass2014-01-171-55/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vdev_id udev helper currently applies slot renumbering rules to every channel (JBOD) in the system. This is too inflexible for systems with non-homogeneous storage topologies. The "slot" keyword now takes an optional third parameter which names a channel to which the mapping will apply. If the third parameter is omitted then the rule applies to all channels. The first-specified rule that can match a slot takes precedence. Therefore a channel-specific rule for a given slot should generally appear before a generic rule for the same slot number. In this way a custom slot mapping can be applied to a particular channel and a default mapping applied to the rest.

* Illumos #4045 write throttle & i/o scheduler performance workMatthew Ahrens2013-12-061-124/+473

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a vdev_id feature to map device names based on already defined udev device links. To increase the odds that vdev_id will run after the rules it depends on, increase the vdev.rules rule number from 60 to 69. With this change, vdev_id now provides functionality analogous to zpool_id and zpool_layout, paving the way to retire those tools. A defined alias takes precedence over a topology-derived name, but the two naming methods can otherwise coexist. For example, one might name drives in a JBOD with the sas_direct topology while naming an internal L2ARC device with an alias. For example, the following lines in vdev_id.conf will result in the creation of links /dev/disk/by-vdev/{d1,d2}, each pointing to the same target as the device link specified in the third field. # by-vdev # name fully qualified or base name of device link alias d1 /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x5000c5002de3b9ca alias d2 wwn-0x5000c5002def789e Also perform some minor vdev_id cleanup, such as removal of the unused -s command line option.

It will write zeros to the specified range instead, which is both useless and inefficient (see dnode_free_range).

* Move partition scanning from userspace to module.Etienne Dechamps2012-07-171-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, zpool online -e (dynamic vdev expansion) doesn't work on whole disks because we're invoking ioctl(BLKRRPART) from userspace while ZFS still has a partition open on the disk, which results in EBUSY. This patch moves the BLKRRPART invocation from the zpool utility to the module. Specifically, this is done just before opening the device in vdev_disk_open() which is called inside vdev_reopen(). This requires jumping through some hoops to get to the disk device from the partition device, and to make sure we can still open the partition after the BLKRRPART call. Note that this new code path is triggered on dynamic vdev expansion only; other actions, like creating a new pool, are unchanged and still call BLKRRPART from userspace. This change also depends on API changes which are available in 2.6.37 and latter kernels. The build system has been updated to detect this, but there is no compatibility mode for older kernels. This means that online expansion will NOT be available in older kernels. However, it will still be possible to expand the vdev offline. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #808
