Hi Chris, This is the pull request for btrfs in-band de-duplication patchset.
The patchset can also be fetched from github: https://github.com/adam900710/linux.git wang_dedup_20160218 Theis patchset went through several tests and seems quite good based on integration-4.5. We will continue test after the rebase to integration-4.6(commit dc1e02a4ae), but for it hasn't shown any problem yet and I think it would be OK for 4.6 merge window. Most of the patchset didn't change after v5. Only 2 bug fix and minor return value is changed since then. There is still some little further work to do, but currently it should be OK for most user to try such new feature. This updated version of inband de-duplication has the following features: 1) ONE unified dedup framework. Most of its code is hidden quietly in dedup.c and export the minimal interfaces for its caller. Reviewer and further developer would benefit from the unified framework. 2) TWO different back-end with different trade-off One is the improved version of previous Fujitsu in-memory only dedup. The other one is enhanced dedup implementation from Liu Bo. Changed its tree structure to handle bytenr -> hash search for deleting hash, without the hideous data backref hack. 3) Ioctl interface with persist dedup status Advised by David, now we use ioctl to enable/disable dedup. And we now have dedup status, recorded in the first item of dedup tree. Just like quota, once enabled, no extra ioctl is needed for next mount. 4) Ability to disable dedup for given dirs/files It works just like the compression prop method, by adding a new xattr. TODO: 1) Support compression for hash miss case This may need to change the on-disk format for on-disk backend. 2) Add extent-by-extent comparison for faster but more conflicting algorithm Current SHA256 hash is quite slow, and for some old(5 years ago) CPU, CPU may even be a bottleneck other than IO. But for faster hash, it will definitely cause conflicts, so we need extent comparison before we introduce new dedup algorithm. 3) Misc end-user related helpers Like handy and easy to implement dedup rate report. And method to query in-memory hash size for those "non-exist" users who want to use 'dedup enable -l' option but didn't ever know how much RAM they have. Changelog: v2: Totally reworked to handle multiple backends v3: Fix a stupid but deadly on-disk backend bug Add handle for multiple hash on same bytenr corner case to fix abort trans error Increase dedup rate by enhancing delayed ref handler for both backend. Move dedup_add() to run_delayed_ref() time, to fix abort trans error. Increase dedup block size up limit to 8M. v4: Add dedup prop for disabling dedup for given files/dirs. Merge inmem_search() and ondisk_search() into generic_search() to save some code Fix another delayed_ref related bug. Use the same mutex for both inmem and ondisk backend. Move dedup_add() back to btrfs_finish_ordered_io() to increase dedup rate. v5: Reuse compress routine for much simpler dedup function. Slightly improved performance due to above modification. Fix race between dedup enable/disable Fix for false ENOSPC report v6: Further enable/disable race window fix. Minor format change according to checkpatch. v7: Fix one concurrency bug with balance. Slightly modify return value from -EINVAL to -EOPNOTSUPP for btrfs_dedup_ioctl() to allow progs to distinguish unsupported commands and error parameter. Rebased to integration-4.6.
