After we allocate the send context object and before we initialize all
the red black trees, we can jump to the 'out' label if some errors happen,
and then under the 'out' label we use RB_EMPTY_ROOT() against some of the
those trees, which we have not yet initialized. This happens to work out
ok because the send context object was initialized to zeroes with kzalloc
and the RB_ROOT initializer just happens to have the following definition:
#define RB_ROOT (struct rb_root) { NULL, }
But it's really neither clean nor a good practice as RB_ROOT is supposed
to be opaque and in case it changes or we change those red black trees to
some other data structure, it leaves us in a precarious situation.
So initialize all the red black trees immediately after allocating the
send context and before any jump into the 'out' label.

When processing the new references for an inode, we unnecessarily iterate
twice the waiting dir moves rbtree, once with is_waiting_for_move() and
if we found an entry in the rbtree, we iterate it again with a call to
get_waiting_dir_move(). This is pointless, we can make this simpler and
more efficient by calling only get_waiting_dir_move(), so just do that.

During an incremental send, every time we remove a reference (dentry) for
an inode and the parent directory does not exists anymore in the send
root, we go check if we can remove the directory by making a call to
can_rmdir(). This helper can only return true (value 1) if all dentries
were already removed, and for that it always does a search on the parent
root for dir index keys - if it finds any dentry referring to an inode
with a number higher then the inode currently being processed, then the
directory can not be removed and it must return false (value 0).
However that means if a directory that was deleted had 1000 dentries, and
each one pointed to an inode with a number higher then the number of the
directory's inode, we end up doing 1000 searches on the parent root.
Typically files are created in a directory after the directory was created
and therefore they get an higher inode number than the directory. It's
also common to have the each dentry pointing to an inode with a higher
number then the inodes the previous dentries point to, for example when
creating a series of files inside a directory, a very common pattern.
So improve on that by having the first call to can_rmdir() for a directory
to check the number of the inode that the last dentry points to and cache
that inode number in the orphan dir structure. Then every subsequent call
to can_rmdir() can avoid doing a search on the parent root if the number
of the inode currently being processed is smaller than cached inode number
at the directory's orphan dir structure.

At can_rmdir() we start by searching the orphan dirs rbtree for an orphan
dir object for the target directory. Later when iterating over the dir
index keys, if we find that any dir entry points to inode for which there
is a pending dir move or the inode was not yet processed, we exit because
we can't remove the directory yet. However we end up always calling
add_orphan_dir_info(), which will iterate again the rbtree and if there is
already an orphan dir object (created by the first call to can_rmdir()),
it returns the existing object. This is unnecessary work because in case
there is already an existing orphan dir object, we got a reference to it
at the start of can_rmdir(). So skip the call to add_orphan_dir_info()
if we already have a reference for an orphan dir object.

During an incremental send, when processing the new references of an inode
(either it's a new inode or an existing one renamed/moved), he will search
the b+tree of the send or parent roots in order to find out the inode item
of the parent directory and extract its generation. However we are doing
that search twice, once with is_inode_existent() -> get_cur_inode_state()
and then again at did_overwrite_ref() or will_overwrite_ref().
So avoid that and get the generation at get_cur_inode_state() and then
propagate it up to did_overwrite_ref() and will_overwrite_ref().

There are no resources to release before will_overwrite_ref() returns, so
we don't really need the 'out' label and jumping to it when conditions are
met - we can directly return and get rid of the label and jumps. Also we
can deal with -ENOENT and other errors in a single if-else logic, as it's
more straightforward.

At did_overwrite_ref() we always call get_inode_gen() to find out the
generation of the inode 'ow_inode'. However we don't always need to use
that generation, and in fact it's very common to not use it, so we end
up doing a b+tree search on the send root, allocating a path, etc, for
nothing. So improve on this by getting the generation only if we need
to use it.

[BUG]
Since the introduction of per-fs feature sysfs interface
(/sys/fs/btrfs/<UUID>/features/), the content of that directory is never
updated.
Thus for the following case, that directory will not show the new
features like RAID56:
# mkfs.btrfs -f $dev1 $dev2 $dev3
# mount $dev1 $mnt
# btrfs balance start -f -mconvert=raid5 $mnt
# ls /sys/fs/btrfs/$uuid/features/
extended_iref free_space_tree no_holes skinny_metadata
While after unmount and mount, we got the correct features:
# umount $mnt
# mount $dev1 $mnt
# ls /sys/fs/btrfs/$uuid/features/
extended_iref free_space_tree no_holes raid56 skinny_metadata
[CAUSE]
Because we never really try to update the content of per-fs features/
directory.
We had an attempt to update the features directory dynamically in commit
14e46e04958d ("btrfs: synchronize incompat feature bits with sysfs
files"), but unfortunately it get reverted in commit e410e34fad91
("Revert "btrfs: synchronize incompat feature bits with sysfs files"").
The problem in the original patch is, in the context of
btrfs_create_chunk(), we can not afford to update the sysfs group.
The exported but never utilized function, btrfs_sysfs_feature_update()
is the leftover of such attempt. As even if we go sysfs_update_group(),
new files will need extra memory allocation, and we have no way to
specify the sysfs update to go GFP_NOFS.
[FIX]
This patch will address the old problem by doing asynchronous sysfs
update in the cleaner thread.
This involves the following changes:
- Make __btrfs_(set|clear)_fs_(incompat|compat_ro) helpers to set
BTRFS_FS_FEATURE_CHANGED flag when needed
- Update btrfs_sysfs_feature_update() to use sysfs_update_group()
And drop unnecessary arguments.
- Call btrfs_sysfs_feature_update() in cleaner_kthread
If we have the BTRFS_FS_FEATURE_CHANGED flag set.
- Wake up cleaner_kthread in btrfs_commit_transaction if we have
BTRFS_FS_FEATURE_CHANGED flag
By this, all the previously dangerous call sites like
btrfs_create_chunk() need no new changes, as above helpers would
have already set the BTRFS_FS_FEATURE_CHANGED flag.
The real work happens at cleaner_kthread, thus we pay the cost of
delaying the update to sysfs directory, but the delayed time should be
small enough that end user can not distinguish though it might get
delayed if the cleaner thread is busy with removing subvolumes or
defrag.

[BUG]
When debugging a scrub related metadata error, it turns out that our
metadata error reporting is not ideal.
The only 3 error messages are:
- BTRFS error (device dm-2): bdev /dev/mapper/test-scratch1 errs: wr 0, rd 0, flush 0, corrupt 0, gen 1
Showing we have metadata generation mismatch errors.
- BTRFS error (device dm-2): unable to fixup (regular) error at logical 7110656 on dev /dev/mapper/test-scratch1
Showing which tree blocks are corrupted.
- BTRFS warning (device dm-2): checksum/header error at logical 24772608 on dev /dev/mapper/test-scratch2, physical 3801088: metadata node (level 1) in tree 5
Showing which physical range the corrupted metadata is at.
We have to combine the above 3 to know we have a corrupted metadata with
generation mismatch.
And this is already the better case, if we have other problems, like
fsid mismatch, we can not even know the cause.
[CAUSE]
The problem is caused by the fact that, scrub_checksum_tree_block()
never outputs any error message.
It just return two bits for scrub: sblock->header_error, and
sblock->generation_error.
And later we report error in scrub_print_warning(), but unfortunately we
only have two bits, there is not really much thing we can done to print
any detailed errors.
[FIX]
This patch will do the following to enhance the error reporting of
metadata scrub:
- Add extra warning (ratelimited) for every error we hit
This can help us to distinguish the different types of errors.
Some errors can help us to know what's going wrong immediately,
like bytenr mismatch.
- Re-order the checks
Currently we check bytenr first, then immediately generation.
This can lead to false generation mismatch reports, while the fsid
mismatches.
Here is the new output for the bug I'm debugging (we forgot to
writeback tree blocks for commit roots):
BTRFS warning (device dm-2): tree block 24117248 mirror 1 has bad fsid, has b77cd862-f150-4c71-90ec-7baf0544d83f want 17df6abf-23cd-445f-b350-5b3e40bfd2fc

Now we can immediately know it's some tree blocks didn't even get written

When a file system has ZNS devices which are constrained by a maximum
number of active block groups, then not being able to use all the block
groups for every allocation is not ideal, and could cause us to loop a
ton with mixed size allocations.
In general, since zoned doesn't write into gaps behind where block
groups are writing, it is not susceptible to the same sort of
fragmentation that size classes are designed to solve, so we can skip
size classes for zoned file systems in general, even though there would
probably be no harm for SMR devices.

Since the size class is an artifact of an arbitrary anti fragmentation
strategy, it doesn't really make sense to persist it. Furthermore, most
of the size class logic assumes fresh block groups. That is of course
not a reasonable assumption -- we will be upgrading kernels with
existing filesystems whose block groups are not classified.
To work around those issues, implement logic to compute the size class
of the block groups as we cache them in. To perfectly assess the state
of a block group, we would have to read the entire extent tree (since
the free space cache mashes together contiguous extent items) which
would be prohibitively expensive for larger file systems with more
extents.
We can do it relatively cheaply by implementing a simple heuristic of
sampling a handful of extents and picking the smallest one we see. In
the happy case where the block group was classified, we will only see
extents of the correct size. In the unhappy case, we will hopefully find
one of the smaller extents, but there is no perfect answer anyway.
Autorelocation will eventually churn up the block group if there is
significant freeing anyway.
There was no regression in mount performance at end state of the fsperf
test suite, and the delay until the block group is marked cached is
minimized by the constant number of extent samples.

The aim of this patch is to reduce the fragmentation of block groups
under certain unhappy workloads. It is particularly effective when the
size of extents correlates with their lifetime, which is something we
have observed causing fragmentation in the fleet at Meta.
This patch categorizes extents into size classes:
- x < 128KiB: "small"
- 128KiB < x < 8MiB: "medium"
- x > 8MiB: "large"
and as much as possible reduces allocations of extents into block groups
that don't match the size class. This takes advantage of any (possible)
correlation between size and lifetime and also leaves behind predictable
re-usable gaps when extents are freed; small writes don't gum up bigger
holes.
Size classes are implemented in the following way:
- Mark each new block group with a size class of the first allocation
that goes into it.
- Add two new passes to ffe: "unset size class" and "wrong size class".
First, try only matching block groups, then try unset ones, then allow
allocation of new ones, and finally allow mismatched block groups.
- Filtering is done just by skipping inappropriate ones, there is no
special size class indexing.
Other solutions I considered were:
- A best fit allocator with an rb-tree. This worked well, as small
writes didn't leak big holes from large freed extents, but led to
regressions in ffe and write performance due to lock contention on
the rb-tree with every allocation possibly updating it in parallel.
Perhaps something clever could be done to do the updates in the
background while being "right enough".
- A fixed size "working set". This prevents freeing an extent
drastically changing where writes currently land, and seems like a
good option too. Doesn't take advantage of size in any way.
- The same size class idea, but implemented with xarray marks. This
turned out to be slower than looping the linked list and skipping
wrong block groups, and is also less flexible since we must have only
3 size classes (max #marks). With the current approach we can have as
many as we like.
Performance testing was done via: https://github.com/josefbacik/fsperf
Of particular relevance are the new fragmentation specific tests.
A brief summary of the testing results:
- Neutral results on existing tests. There are some minor regressions
and improvements here and there, but nothing that truly stands out as
notable.
- Improvement on new tests where size class and extent lifetime are
correlated. Fragmentation in these cases is completely eliminated
and write performance is generally a little better. There is also
significant improvement where extent sizes are just a bit larger than
the size class boundaries.
- Regression on one new tests: where the allocations are sized
intentionally a hair under the borders of the size classes. Results
are neutral on the test that intentionally attacks this new scheme by
mixing extent size and lifetime.

There are some mixed improvements/regressions in most metrics along with
an elimination of fragmentation in this workload.
On the balance, the drastic 1->0 improvement in the happy cases seems
worth the mix of regressions and improvements we do observe.
Some considerations for future work:
- Experimenting with more size classes
- More hinting/search ordering work to approximate a best-fit allocator

find_free_extent is a complicated function. It consists (at least) of:
- a hint that jumps into the middle of a for loop macro
- a middle loop trying every raid level
- an outer loop ascending through ffe loop levels
- complicated logic for skipping some of those ffe loop levels
- multiple underlying in-bg allocators (zoned, cluster, no cluster)
Which is all to say that more tracing is helpful for debugging its
behavior. Add two new tracepoints: at the entrance to the block_groups
loop (hit for every raid level and every ffe_ctl loop) and at the point
we seriously consider a block_group for allocation. This way we can see
the whole path through the algorithm, including hints, multiple loops,
etc.

Currently we use the value 1 for BTRFS_LOG_FORCE_COMMIT, but that value
has a few inconveniences:
1) If it's ever used by btrfs_log_inode(), or any function down the call
chain, we have to remember to btrfs_set_log_full_commit(), which is
repetitive and has a chance to be forgotten in future use cases.
btrfs_log_inode_parent() only calls btrfs_set_log_full_commit() when
it gets a negative value from btrfs_log_inode();
2) Down the call chain of btrfs_log_inode(), we may have functions that
need to force a log commit, but can return either an error (negative
value), false (0) or true (1). So they are forced to return some
random negative to force a log commit - using BTRFS_LOG_FORCE_COMMIT
would make the intention more clear. Currently the only example is
flush_dir_items_batch().
So turn BTRFS_LOG_FORCE_COMMIT into a negative value. The chosen value
is -(MAX_ERRNO + 1), so that it does not overlap any errno value and makes
it easier to debug.

Now that the filestreams AG selection tracks active perags, we need
to return an active perag to the core allocator code. This is
because the file allocation the filestreams code will run are AG
specific allocations and so need to pin the AG until the allocations
complete.
We cannot rely on the filestreams item reference to do this - the
filestreams association can be torn down at any time, hence we
need to have a separate reference for the allocation process to pin
the AG after it has been selected.
This means there is some perag juggling in allocation failure
fallback paths as they will do all AG scans in the case the AG
specific allocation fails. Hence we need to track the perag
reference that the filestream allocator returned to make sure we
don't leak it on repeated allocation failure.

The lookup currently either returns the cached filestream AG or it

the initial lookup functionality with the length selection so that
we only need to do a single pick loop on lookup or verification

xfs_bmap_btalloc_filestreams() calls two filestreams functions to

Worst case, xfs_bmap_btalloc_filestreams() can iterate all AGs 4

Move the AG selection to fs/xfs/xfs_filestreams.c as a single

It is only set if reading the AGF gets a EAGAIN error. Just return

This means we can remove the not_init parameter from
xfs_bmap_select_minlen(), too, because the use of not_init there is
pessimistic. If we can't read the agf, it won't increase blen.
The only time we actually care whether we checked all the AGFs for
contiguous free space is when the best length is less than the
minimum allocation length. If not_init is set, then we ignore blen
and set the minimum alloc length to the absolute minimum, not the
best length we know already is present.
However, if blen is less than the minimum we're going to ignore it
anyway, regardless of whether we scanned all the AGFs or not. Hence
not_init can go away, because we only use if blen is good from
the scanned AGs otherwise we ignore it altogether and use minlen.
