[PATCH v10 01/15] fs: add atomic write unit max opt to statx
Posted by John Garry 9 months, 1 week ago
XFS will be able to support large atomic writes (atomic write > 1x block)
in future. This will be achieved by using different operating methods,
depending on the size of the write.

Specifically a new method of operation based in FS atomic extent remapping
will be supported in addition to the current HW offload-based method.

The FS method will generally be appreciably slower performing than the
HW-offload method. However the FS method will be typically able to
contribute to achieving a larger atomic write unit max limit.

XFS will support a hybrid mode, where HW offload method will be used when
possible, i.e. HW offload is used when the length of the write is
supported, and for other times FS-based atomic writes will be used.

As such, there is an atomic write length at which the user may experience
appreciably slower performance.

Advertise this limit in a new statx field, stx_atomic_write_unit_max_opt.

When zero, it means that there is no such performance boundary.

Masks STATX{_ATTR}_WRITE_ATOMIC can be used to get this new field. This is
ok for older kernels which don't support this new field, as they would
report 0 in this field (from zeroing in cp_statx()) already. Furthermore
those older kernels don't support large atomic writes - apart from block
fops, but there would be consistent performance there for atomic writes
in range [unit min, unit max].

[PATCH v10.1 1.1/15] xfs: only call xfs_setsize_buftarg once per buffer target
Posted by Darrick J. Wong 9 months, 1 week ago
From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org>

It's silly to call xfs_setsize_buftarg from xfs_alloc_buftarg with the
block device LBA size because we don't need to ask the block layer to
validate a geometry number that it provided us.  Instead, set the
preliminary bt_meta_sector* fields to the LBA size in preparation for
reading the primary super.

However, we still want to flush and invalidate the pagecache for all
three block devices before we start reading metadata from those devices.
Move the sync_blockdev calls into a separate helper function, and call
it immediately after xfs_open_devices creates the buftargs.

This will enable a subsequent patch to validate hw atomic write geometry
against the filesystem geometry.
