Currently regardless of a full or a fast fsync we always wait for ordered
extents to complete, and then start logging the inode after that. However
for fast fsyncs we can just wait for the writeback to complete, we don't
need to wait for the ordered extents to complete since we use the list of
modified extents maps to figure out which extents we must log and we can
get their checksums directly from the ordered extents that are still in
flight, otherwise look them up from the checksums tree.
Until commit b5e6c3e170 ("btrfs: always wait on ordered extents at
fsync time"), for fast fsyncs, we used to start logging without even
waiting for the writeback to complete first, we would wait for it to
complete after logging, while holding a transaction open, which lead to
performance issues when using cgroups and probably for other cases too,
as wait for IO while holding a transaction handle should be avoided as
much as possible. After that, for fast fsyncs, we started to wait for
ordered extents to complete before starting to log, which adds some
latency to fsyncs and we even got at least one report about a performance
drop which bisected to that particular change:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/20181109215148.GF23260@techsingularity.net/
This change makes fast fsyncs only wait for writeback to finish before
starting to log the inode, instead of waiting for both the writeback to
finish and for the ordered extents to complete. This brings back part of
the logic we had that extracts checksums from in flight ordered extents,
which are not yet in the checksums tree, and making sure transaction
commits wait for the completion of ordered extents previously logged
(by far most of the time they have already completed by the time a
transaction commit starts, resulting in no wait at all), to avoid any
data loss if an ordered extent completes after the transaction used to
log an inode is committed, followed by a power failure.
When there are no other tasks accessing the checksums and the subvolume
btrees, the ordered extent completion is pretty fast, typically taking
100 to 200 microseconds only in my observations. However when there are
other tasks accessing these btrees, ordered extent completion can take a
lot more time due to lock contention on nodes and leaves of these btrees.
I've seen cases over 2 milliseconds, which starts to be significant. In
particular when we do have concurrent fsyncs against different files there
is a lot of contention on the checksums btree, since we have many tasks
writing the checksums into the btree and other tasks that already started
the logging phase are doing lookups for checksums in the btree.
This change also turns all ranged fsyncs into full ranged fsyncs, which
is something we already did when not using the NO_HOLES features or when
doing a full fsync. This is to guarantee we never miss checksums due to
writeback having been triggered only for a part of an extent, and we end
up logging the full extent but only checksums for the written range, which
results in missing checksums after log replay. Allowing ranged fsyncs to
operate again only in the original range, when using the NO_HOLES feature
and doing a fast fsync is doable but requires some non trivial changes to
the writeback path, which can always be worked on later if needed, but I
don't think they are a very common use case.
Several tests were performed using fio for different numbers of concurrent
jobs, each writing and fsyncing its own file, for both sequential and
random file writes. The tests were run on bare metal, no virtualization,
on a box with 12 cores (Intel i7-8700), 64Gb of RAM and a NVMe device,
with a kernel configuration that is the default of typical distributions
(debian in this case), without debug options enabled (kasan, kmemleak,
slub debug, debug of page allocations, lock debugging, etc).
The following script that calls fio was used:
$ cat test-fsync.sh
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/dev/nvme0n1
MNT=/mnt/btrfs
MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o ssd -o space_cache=v2"
MKFS_OPTIONS="-d single -m single"
if [ $# -ne 5 ]; then
echo "Use $0 NUM_JOBS FILE_SIZE FSYNC_FREQ BLOCK_SIZE [write|randwrite]"
exit 1
fi
NUM_JOBS=$1
FILE_SIZE=$2
FSYNC_FREQ=$3
BLOCK_SIZE=$4
WRITE_MODE=$5
if [ "$WRITE_MODE" != "write" ] && [ "$WRITE_MODE" != "randwrite" ]; then
echo "Invalid WRITE_MODE, must be 'write' or 'randwrite'"
exit 1
fi

The results were the following:
