[03/14] xfs: rework per-iclog header CIL reservation

Commit Message

From: Dave Chinner <[e-mail]>

For every iclog that a CIL push will use up, we need to ensure we
have space reserved for the iclog header in each iclog. It is
extremely difficult to do this accurately with a per-cpu counter
without expensive summing of the counter in every commit. However,
we know what the maximum CIL size is going to be because of the
hard space limit we have, and hence we know exactly how many iclogs
we are going to need to write out the CIL.

We are constrained by the requirement that small transactions only
have reservation space for a single iclog header built into them.
At commit time we don't know how much of the current transaction
reservation is made up of iclog header reservations as calculated by
xfs_log_calc_unit_res() when the ticket was reserved. As larger
reservations have multiple header spaces reserved, we can steal
more than one iclog header reservation at a time, but we only steal
the exact number needed for the given log vector size delta.

As a result, we don't know exactly when we are going to steal iclog
header reservations, nor do we know exactly how many we are going to
need for a given CIL.

To make things simple, start by calculating the worst case number of
iclog headers a full CIL push will require. Record this into an
atomic variable in the CIL. Then add a byte counter to the log
ticket that records exactly how much iclog header space has been
reserved in this ticket by xfs_log_calc_unit_res(). This tells us
exactly how much space we can steal from the ticket at transaction
commit time.

Now, at transaction commit time, we can check if the CIL has a full
iclog header reservation and, if not, steal the entire reservation
the current ticket holds for iclog headers. This minimises the
number of times we need to do atomic operations in the fast path,
but still guarantees we get all the reservations we need.
