jbd2: increase the journal IO's priority

2023-12-01T04:27:39Z

Current jbd2 only add REQ_SYNC for descriptor block, metadata log buffer, commit buffer and superblock buffer, the submitted IO could be throttled by writeback throttle in block layer, that could lead to priority inversion in some cases. The log IO looks like a kind of high priority metadata IO, so it should not be throttled by WBT like QOS policies in block layer, let's add REQ_SYNC | REQ_IDLE to exempt from writeback throttle, and also add REQ_META together indicates it's a metadata IO.

jbd2: fix potential data lost in recovering journal raced with synchronizing fs bdev

2023-10-06T02:32:15Z

JBD2 makes sure journal data is fallen on fs device by sync_blockdev(), however, other process could intercept the EIO information from bdev's mapping, which leads journal recovering successful even EIO occurs during data written back to fs device. We found this problem in our product, iscsi + multipath is chosen for block device of ext4. Unstable network may trigger kpartx to rescan partitions in device mapper layer. Detailed process is shown as following: mount kpartx irq jbd2_journal_recover do_one_pass memcpy(nbh->b_data, obh->b_data) // copy data to fs dev from journal mark_buffer_dirty // mark bh dirty vfs_read generic_file_read_iter // dio filemap_write_and_wait_range __filemap_fdatawrite_range do_writepages block_write_full_folio submit_bh_wbc >> EIO occurs in disk << end_buffer_async_write mark_buffer_write_io_error mapping_set_error set_bit(AS_EIO, &mapping->flags) // set! filemap_check_errors test_and_clear_bit(AS_EIO, &mapping->flags) // clear! err2 = sync_blockdev filemap_write_and_wait filemap_check_errors test_and_clear_bit(AS_EIO, &mapping->flags) // false err2 = 0 Filesystem is mounted successfully even data from journal is failed written into disk, and ext4/ocfs2 could become corrupted. Fix it by comparing the wb_err state in fs block device before recovering and after recovering. A reproducer can be found in the kernel bugzilla referenced below.

Now, if check data block checksum failed only print data's block number then skip write data. However, one data block may in more than one transaction. In some scenarios, offline analysis is inconvenient. As a result, it is difficult to locate the areas where data is faulty. So print 'io_block' if check data block checksum failed.

jbd2,ext4: dynamically allocate the jbd2-journal shrinker

2023-10-04T17:32:25Z

In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, use new APIs to dynamically allocate the jbd2-journal shrinker, so that it can be freed asynchronously via RCU. Then it doesn't need to wait for RCU read-side critical section when releasing the struct journal_s.
