Swap DTRACE_PROBE* with Linux tracepoints This patch leverages Linux tracepoints from within the ZFS on Linux code base. It also refactors the debug code to bring it back in sync with Illumos. The information exported via tracepoints can be used for a variety of reasons (e.g. debugging, tuning, general exploration/understanding, etc). It is advantageous to use Linux tracepoints as the mechanism to export this kind of information (as opposed to something else) for a number of reasons: * A number of external tools can make use of our tracepoints "automatically" (e.g. perf, systemtap) * Tracepoints are designed to be extremely cheap when disabled * It's one of the "accepted" ways to export this kind of information; many other kernel subsystems use tracepoints too. Unfortunately, though, there are a few caveats as well: * Linux tracepoints appear to only be available to GPL licensed modules due to the way certain kernel functions are exported. Thus, to actually make use of the tracepoints introduced by this patch, one might have to patch and re-compile the kernel; exporting the necessary functions to non-GPL modules. * Prior to upstream kernel version v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e, Linux tracepoints are not available for unsigned kernel modules (tracepoints will get disabled due to the module's 'F' taint). Thus, one either has to sign the zfs kernel module prior to loading it, or use a kernel versioned v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e or newer. Assuming the above two requirements are satisfied, lets look at an example of how this patch can be used and what information it exposes (all commands run as 'root'): # list all zfs tracepoints available $ ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/zfs enable filter zfs_arc__delete zfs_arc__evict zfs_arc__hit zfs_arc__miss zfs_l2arc__evict zfs_l2arc__hit zfs_l2arc__iodone zfs_l2arc__miss zfs_l2arc__read zfs_l2arc__write zfs_new_state__mfu zfs_new_state__mru # enable all zfs tracepoints, clear the tracepoint ring buffer $ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/zfs/enable $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace # import zpool called 'tank', inspect tracepoint data (each line was # truncated, they're too long for a commit message otherwise) $ zpool import tank $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace | head -n35 # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 1219/1219 #P:8 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.200050: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/0-30156 [003] .... 91344.200611: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.201173: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/1-30157 [003] .... 91344.201756: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.201795: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/2-30158 [003] .... 91344.202099: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202126: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202130: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202134: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202146: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/3-30159 [003] .... 91344.202457: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202484: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/4-30160 [003] .... 91344.202866: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202891: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.203034: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_iss/1-30149 [001] .... 91344.203749: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.203789: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.203878: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_iss/3-30151 [001] .... 91344.204315: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204332: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204337: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204352: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204356: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204360: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ...

This kind of precise and detailed information can be extremely valuable when trying to answer certain kinds of questions. For anybody unfamiliar but looking to build on this, I found the XFS source code along with the following three web links to be extremely helpful: * http://lwn.net/Articles/379903/ * http://lwn.net/Articles/381064/ * http://lwn.net/Articles/383362/ I should also node the more "boring" aspects of this patch: * The ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE autoconf macro was modified to support a sixth paramter. This parameter is used to populate the contents of the new conftest.h file. If no sixth parameter is provided, conftest.h will be empty. * The ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_HEADER autoconf macro was introduced. This macro is nearly identical to the ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE macro, except it has support for a fifth option that is then passed as the sixth parameter to ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE. These autoconf changes were needed to test the availability of the Linux tracepoint macros. Due to the odd nature of the Linux tracepoint macro API, a separate ".h" must be created (the path and filename is used internally by the kernel's define_trace.h file). * The HAVE_DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS autoconf macro was introduced. This is to determine if we can safely enable the Linux tracepoint functionality. We need to selectively disable the tracepoint code due to the kernel exporting certain functions as GPL only. Without this check, the build process will fail at link time. In addition, the SET_ERROR macro was modified into a tracepoint as well. To do this, the 'sdt.h' file was moved into the 'include/sys' directory and now contains a userspace portion and a kernel space portion. The dprintf and zfs_dbgmsg* interfaces are now implemented as tracepoint as well.

Linux 3.1 compat, super_block->s_shrink The Linux 3.1 kernel has introduced the concept of per-filesystem shrinkers which are directly assoicated with a super block. Prior to this change there was one shared global shrinker. The zfs code relied on being able to call the global shrinker when the arc_meta_limit was exceeded. This would cause the VFS to drop references on a fraction of the dentries in the dcache. The ARC could then safely reclaim the memory used by these entries and honor the arc_meta_limit. Unfortunately, when per-filesystem shrinkers were added the old interfaces were made unavailable. This change adds support to use the new per-filesystem shrinker interface so we can continue to honor the arc_meta_limit. The major benefit of the new interface is that we can now target only the zfs filesystem for dentry and inode pruning. Thus we can minimize any impact on the caching of other filesystems. In the context of making this change several other important issues related to managing the ARC were addressed, they include: * The dnlc_reduce_cache() function which was called by the ARC to drop dentries for the Posix layer was replaced with a generic zfs_prune_t callback. The ZPL layer now registers a callback to drop these dentries removing a layering violation which dates back to the Solaris code. This callback can also be used by other ARC consumers such as Lustre. arc_add_prune_callback() arc_remove_prune_callback() * The arc_reduce_dnlc_percent module option has been changed to arc_meta_prune for clarity. The dnlc functions are specific to Solaris's VFS and have already been largely eliminated already. The replacement tunable now represents the number of bytes the prune callback will request when invoked. * Less aggressively invoke the prune callback. We used to call this whenever we exceeded the arc_meta_limit however that's not strictly correct since it results in over zeleous reclaim of dentries and inodes. It is now only called once the arc_meta_limit is exceeded and every effort has been made to evict other data from the ARC cache. * More promptly manage exceeding the arc_meta_limit. When reading meta data in to the cache if a buffer was unable to be recycled notify the arc_reclaim thread to invoke the required prune. * Added arcstat_prune kstat which is incremented when the ARC is forced to request that a consumer prune its cache. Remember this will only occur when the ARC has no other choice. If it can evict buffers safely without invoking the prune callback it will. * This change is also expected to resolve the unexpect collapses of the ARC cache. This would occur because when exceeded just the arc_meta_limit reclaim presure would be excerted on the arc_c value via arc_shrink(). This effectively shrunk the entire cache when really we just needed to reclaim meta data. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Closes #466 Closes #292

Linux compat 2.6.39: mount_nodev() The .get_sb callback has been replaced by a .mount callback in the file_system_type structure. When using the new interface the caller must now use the mount_nodev() helper. Unfortunately, the new interface no longer passes the vfsmount down to the zfs layers. This poses a problem for the existing implementation because we currently save this pointer in the super block for latter use. It provides our only entry point in to the namespace layer for manipulating certain mount options. This needed to be done originally to allow commands like 'zfs set atime=off tank' to work properly. It also allowed me to keep more of the original Solaris code unmodified. Under Solaris there is a 1-to-1 mapping between a mount point and a file system so this is a fairly natural thing to do. However, under Linux they many be multiple entries in the namespace which reference the same filesystem. Thus keeping a back reference from the filesystem to the namespace is complicated. Rather than introduce some ugly hack to get the vfsmount and continue as before. I'm leveraging this API change to update the ZFS code to do things in a more natural way for Linux. This has the upside that is resolves the compatibility issue for the long term and fixes several other minor bugs which have been reported. This commit updates the code to remove this vfsmount back reference entirely. All modifications to filesystem mount options are now passed in to the kernel via a '-o remount'. This is the expected Linux mechanism and allows the namespace to properly handle any options which apply to it before passing them on to the file system itself. Aside from fixing the compatibility issue, removing the vfsmount has had the benefit of simplifying the code. This change which fairly involved has turned out nicely.

Support custom build directories and move includes One of the neat tricks an autoconf style project is capable of is allow configurion/building in a directory other than the source directory. The major advantage to this is that you can build the project various different ways while making changes in a single source tree. For example, this project is designed to work on various different Linux distributions each of which work slightly differently. This means that changes need to verified on each of those supported distributions perferably before the change is committed to the public git repo. Using nfs and custom build directories makes this much easier. I now have a single source tree in nfs mounted on several different systems each running a supported distribution. When I make a change to the source base I suspect may break things I can concurrently build from the same source on all the systems each in their own subdirectory. wget -c http://github.com/downloads/behlendorf/zfs/zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz tar -xzf zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz cd zfs-x-y-z ------------------------- run concurrently ---------------------- <ubuntu system> <fedora system> <debian system> <rhel6 system> mkdir ubuntu mkdir fedora mkdir debian mkdir rhel6 cd ubuntu cd fedora cd debian cd rhel6 ../configure ../configure ../configure ../configure make make make make make check make check make check make check This change also moves many of the include headers from individual incude/sys directories under the modules directory in to a single top level include directory.

Swap DTRACE_PROBE* with Linux tracepoints This patch leverages Linux tracepoints from within the ZFS on Linux code base. It also refactors the debug code to bring it back in sync with Illumos. The information exported via tracepoints can be used for a variety of reasons (e.g. debugging, tuning, general exploration/understanding, etc). It is advantageous to use Linux tracepoints as the mechanism to export this kind of information (as opposed to something else) for a number of reasons: * A number of external tools can make use of our tracepoints "automatically" (e.g. perf, systemtap) * Tracepoints are designed to be extremely cheap when disabled * It's one of the "accepted" ways to export this kind of information; many other kernel subsystems use tracepoints too. Unfortunately, though, there are a few caveats as well: * Linux tracepoints appear to only be available to GPL licensed modules due to the way certain kernel functions are exported. Thus, to actually make use of the tracepoints introduced by this patch, one might have to patch and re-compile the kernel; exporting the necessary functions to non-GPL modules. * Prior to upstream kernel version v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e, Linux tracepoints are not available for unsigned kernel modules (tracepoints will get disabled due to the module's 'F' taint). Thus, one either has to sign the zfs kernel module prior to loading it, or use a kernel versioned v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e or newer. Assuming the above two requirements are satisfied, lets look at an example of how this patch can be used and what information it exposes (all commands run as 'root'): # list all zfs tracepoints available $ ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/zfs enable filter zfs_arc__delete zfs_arc__evict zfs_arc__hit zfs_arc__miss zfs_l2arc__evict zfs_l2arc__hit zfs_l2arc__iodone zfs_l2arc__miss zfs_l2arc__read zfs_l2arc__write zfs_new_state__mfu zfs_new_state__mru # enable all zfs tracepoints, clear the tracepoint ring buffer $ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/zfs/enable $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace # import zpool called 'tank', inspect tracepoint data (each line was # truncated, they're too long for a commit message otherwise) $ zpool import tank $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace | head -n35 # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 1219/1219 #P:8 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.200050: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/0-30156 [003] .... 91344.200611: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.201173: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/1-30157 [003] .... 91344.201756: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.201795: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/2-30158 [003] .... 91344.202099: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202126: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202130: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202134: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202146: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/3-30159 [003] .... 91344.202457: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202484: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_int/4-30160 [003] .... 91344.202866: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.202891: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.203034: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_iss/1-30149 [001] .... 91344.203749: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.203789: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.203878: zfs_arc__miss: hdr... z_rd_iss/3-30151 [001] .... 91344.204315: zfs_new_state__mru... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204332: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204337: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204352: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204356: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ... lt-zpool-30132 [001] .... 91344.204360: zfs_arc__hit: hdr ...

This parameter is used to populate the contents of the new conftest.h file. If no sixth parameter is provided, conftest.h will be empty. * The ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_HEADER autoconf macro was introduced. This macro is nearly identical to the ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE macro, except it has support for a fifth option that is then passed as the sixth parameter to ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE. These autoconf changes were needed to test the availability of the Linux tracepoint macros. Due to the odd nature of the Linux tracepoint macro API, a separate ".h" must be created (the path and filename is used internally by the kernel's define_trace.h file). * The HAVE_DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS autoconf macro was introduced. This is to determine if we can safely enable the Linux tracepoint functionality. We need to selectively disable the tracepoint code due to the kernel exporting certain functions as GPL only. Without this check, the build process will fail at link time. In addition, the SET_ERROR macro was modified into a tracepoint as well. To do this, the 'sdt.h' file was moved into the 'include/sys' directory and now contains a userspace portion and a kernel space portion. The dprintf and zfs_dbgmsg* interfaces are now implemented as tracepoint as well.

The information exported via tracepoints can be used for a variety of reasons (e.g. debugging, tuning, general exploration/understanding, etc). It is advantageous to use Linux tracepoints as the mechanism to export this kind of information (as opposed to something else) for a number of reasons: * A number of external tools can make use of our tracepoints "automatically" (e.g. perf, systemtap) * Tracepoints are designed to be extremely cheap when disabled * It's one of the "accepted" ways to export this kind of information; many other kernel subsystems use tracepoints too. Unfortunately, though, there are a few caveats as well: * Linux tracepoints appear to only be available to GPL licensed modules due to the way certain kernel functions are exported. Thus, to actually make use of the tracepoints introduced by this patch, one might have to patch and re-compile the kernel; exporting the necessary functions to non-GPL modules. * Prior to upstream kernel version v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e, Linux tracepoints are not available for unsigned kernel modules (tracepoints will get disabled due to the module's 'F' taint).

To do this, the 'sdt.h' file was moved into the 'include/sys' directory and now contains a userspace portion and a kernel space portion. The dprintf and zfs_dbgmsg* interfaces are now implemented as tracepoint as well.

This macro is nearly identical to the ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE macro, except it has support for a fifth option that is then passed as the sixth parameter to ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE. These autoconf changes were needed to test the availability of the Linux tracepoint macros. Due to the odd nature of the Linux tracepoint macro API, a separate ".h" must be created (the path and filename is used internally by the kernel's define_trace.h file). * The HAVE_DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS autoconf macro was introduced. This is to determine if we can safely enable the Linux tracepoint functionality. We need to selectively disable the tracepoint code due to the kernel exporting certain functions as GPL only. Without this check, the build process will fail at link time. In addition, the SET_ERROR macro was modified into a tracepoint as well. To do this, the 'sdt.h' file was moved into the 'include/sys' directory and now contains a userspace portion and a kernel space portion. The dprintf and zfs_dbgmsg* interfaces are now implemented as tracepoint as well.

Swap DTRACE_PROBE* with Linux tracepoints This patch leverages Linux tracepoints from within the ZFS on Linux code base. It also refactors the debug code to bring it back in sync with Illumos. The information exported via tracepoints can be used for a variety of reasons (e.g. debugging, tuning, general exploration/understanding, etc). It is advantageous to use Linux tracepoints as the mechanism to export this kind of information (as opposed to something else) for a number of reasons: * A number of external tools can make use of our tracepoints "automatically" (e.g. perf, systemtap) * Tracepoints are designed to be extremely cheap when disabled * It's one of the "accepted" ways to export this kind of information; many other kernel subsystems use tracepoints too. Unfortunately, though, there are a few caveats as well: * Linux tracepoints appear to only be available to GPL licensed modules due to the way certain kernel functions are exported. Thus, to actually make use of the tracepoints introduced by this patch, one might have to patch and re-compile the kernel; exporting the necessary functions to non-GPL modules. * Prior to upstream kernel version v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e, Linux tracepoints are not available for unsigned kernel modules (tracepoints will get disabled due to the module's 'F' taint). Thus, one either has to sign the zfs kernel module prior to loading it, or use a kernel versioned v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e or newer.
