cover vfs: have syncfs return an error when inode writeback fails

From: Jeff Layton <[email protected]>

Currently, syncfs does not return errors when one of the inodes fails to be written back. It will return errors based on the legacy AS_EIO and AS_ENOSPC flags when syncing out the block device fails, but that's not particularly helpful for filesystems that aren't backed by a blockdev and more granular errors are often not caught.

At LSF/MM this year, we had a discussion about tracking writeback errors on a per-sb basis to help remedy this. This patchset is an inital foray into doing that:

The basic idea is to add a new errseq_t to struct super_block, and use that to track writeback errors for the filesystem as a whole.

Because syncfs is not a common operation, it's not desirable to grow struct file in order to house an errseq_t cursor for it. Willy's suggestion was to reuse file->f_wb_err, but only when the file is opened with O_PATH. fsync always returns an error on an O_PATH fd, so this should be safe, and seems semantically sane, given that syncfs operates on the whole filesystem.

The patchset starts by pushing the __sync_blockdev calls down into the various sync_fs operations. It then plumbs in an extra errseq_t pointer into the sync_fs ops, and the relevant callers. It then adds the new errseq_t field to struct super_block, and adds the machinery to handle syncfs on an O_PATH open correctly. Lastly, it has some filesystems return stored writeback errors in sync_fs ops when they are passed a non-NULL errseq_t pointer.

This is just a start (more filesystems will need similar patches to the later ones in the pile). This all works vs. the fstests testcase I have. I haven't submitted that testcase yet, as I want to get consensus about the interface. Does it make sense to treat O_PATH opens specially like this?

Another thing on the wishlist for this is to expose the per-sb errseq_t via another interface so that applications could periodically check to see whether there has been a writeback error without syncing out the whole fs. This patch doesn't add that yet, but once sb->s_wb_err is in place and tracking errors it should be simple to do (possibly via a new generic filesystem ioctl).

RFC PATCH 1/11 vfs: push __sync_blockdev calls down into sync_fs routines

From: Jeff Layton <[email protected]>

In later patches, we're going to want allow the sync_fs routine to override the return value of __sync_blockdev in some situations. This call is pointless for filesystems that do not set sb->s_bdev, so we can also make things slightly more efficient for those filesystems by not calling it in them.

Export __sync_blockdev and push the calls to __sync_blockdev down into the sync_fs routines.

Many older filesystems still rely on flushing out the bd_inode cache to ensure that it's safely written to the backing store, so when sync_fs is not defined, we do still call __sync_blockdev to support them.

While we're in here, add a call_sync_fs helper to encapsulate this detail.

The proper name for this would be vfs_sync_fs. And I don't think it warrants an inline.

Thanks, I wasn't sure about xfs. I'll drop this hunk.

FWIW, I think pushing this call down into the sync_fs routines is still probably the right thing to do, regardless of the state of the later patches.

The proper name for this would be vfs_sync_fs. And I don't think it warrants an inline.

I patterned the name after the call_mmap (and now-defunct call_fsync) helpers. I'll rename it and change it to be non-inlined.

Thanks,

RFC PATCH 2/11 vfs: add a new errseq_t pointer to sync_fs prototype

In reply to Jeff Layton

From: Jeff Layton <[email protected]>

Plumb a new "since" pointer into the ->sync_fs operation. This will eventually allow us to pass in an optional pointer to an errseq_t to act as a cursor for error reporting.

For now it's ignored and all of the callers pass in NULL.

RFC PATCH 3/11 vfs: add an errseq_t pointer to sync_filesystem

In reply to Jeff Layton

From: Jeff Layton <[email protected]>

Allow sync_filesystem to take an errseq_t for the purposes of error reporting. This value is just passed directly to the ->sync_fs op.

RFC PATCH 5/11 fs: track per-sb writeback errors and report them to syncfs

In reply to Jeff Layton

From: Jeff Layton <[email protected]>

Usually we suggest that applications call fsync when they want to ensure that all data written to the file has made it to the backing store, but that can be inefficient when there are a lot of open files.

Calling syncfs on the filesystem may be more efficient, but the error reporting doesn't currently work the way most people expect. If a single inode on a filesystem reports a writeback error, syncfs won't return an error. syncfs only returns an error if __sync_blockdev fails.

It would be better if it reported an error if there were any writeback failures. Then applications could call syncfs to see if there are any errors on any open files, and could then call fsync on all of the other descriptors to figure out which one failed.

This patch implements a suggestion from Willy to remedy this. It adds a new errseq_t to struct super_block, and has mapping_set_error also record writeback errors there.

To report errors recorded there, we also need to keep an errseq_t for in struct file to act as a cursor, but growing struct file for this purpose is undesirable. We could just reuse f_wb_err, but someone could mix calls to fsync and syncfs and that would break things.

As an alternative, this patch only has syncfs report errors recorded in s_wb_err when the file has been opened with O_PATH. Any file opened with O_PATH will not have its fsync field defined in its file_operations so we can be sure that nothing else will be using its f_wb_err field.

Note that calling syncfs on an O_PATH descriptor today will return -EBADF, so this scheme gives userland a way to tell whether this mechanism will work at runtime.

RFC PATCH 6/11 buffer: record blockdev write errors in super_block that backs them

In reply to Jeff Layton

From: Jeff Layton <[email protected]>

When syncing out a block device (a'la __sync_blockdev), any error encountered will only be recorded in the bd_inode's mapping. When the blockdev contains a filesystem however, we'd like to also record the error in the super_block that's stored there.

Change mark_buffer_write_io_error to record the error in the corresponding super_block when a writeback error occurs and the block device contains a mounted superblock.

I'm worried this is too much complexity to push down to the filesystems. When should errors get reported through the return value; when should they be reported through the errseq_t?

Can we hide all of this? Maybe ext4 could do:

	errseq_set(&sb->s_wb_err, __sync_blockdev(sb->s_bdev, wait));
	return ret;

(we'd need to make calling errseq_set(x, 0) be a no-op instead of an error)

and then the caller is the one who takes care of calling errseq_check_and_advance() so we don't have to pass 'since' into each filesystem.

From: Jeff Layton <[email protected]>
When ext4_sync_fs gets a non-NULL since pointer, use it to report errors vs. the errseq_t in the super_block. This allows us to properly report an error to sync_fs when any inode has failed writeback since we last checked for it.

	errseq_set(&sb->s_wb_err, __sync_blockdev(sb->s_bdev, wait));
	return ret;

I'm not sure I understand what you intend here. If __sync_blockdev fails, then the error should have already been marked in sb->s_wb_err (via patch #6). We wouldn't want to record that again at syncfs time. Note that __sync_blockdev will return errors based on the legacy AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC flags.

We really do need to record it in the superblock as soon as possible after an error occurs. If we want to allow userland to eventually be able to scrape this value out of the kernel (as we discussed at LSF/MM) then we can't assume that it'll be doing any sort of syncfs call beforehand.

The main reason to push this down into the filesystems is to allow them control over whether to report errors at syncfs time via the superblock errseq_t or not. If we don't really care about allowing this to be an opt-in thing, then we could just take the patch that I sent on April 17th:

[PATCH] fs: track per-sb writeback errors and report them to syncfs

We'd also want patch #6 from this series, I think, but that's more or less enough to implement this over all filesystems, assuming they use mapping_set_error to record writeback errors. I'm fine with either approach.

Where did this come from? XFS doesn't use the underlying blockdev address space, so this does nothing at all and should not be here.

So to return errors correctly, xfs_fs_sync_fs() needs to capture errors from the log force (i.e. metadata errors such as filesystem shutdowns, journal IO errors, etc), then check for pending data IO errors. i.e:

Where did this come from? XFS doesn't use the underlying blockdev address space, so this does nothing at all and should not be here.

An earlier patch that pushed this down into the sync_fs routines. We call this today for all filesystems, and I wasn't sure about xfs.

Christoph already pointed out that it's not needed so it's removed from my current branch.

Ok, sounds good. I'll fix that too.

FWIW, we'll actually want to advance the cursor even if xfs_log_force returns an error to ensure that we don't end up reporting errors twice, but that's simple enough to do.

Thanks!

NB: I'm not sure this is something we really want to do. It's a bit cavalier and some filesystems might not like it if they are tracking errors in other ways. An alternative here is to add a simple_sync_fs helper that does this and add that to a whole swath of different fs'.
