Implement SA based xattrs The current ZFS implementation stores xattrs on disk using a hidden directory. In this directory a file name represents the xattr name and the file contexts are the xattr binary data. This approach is very flexible and allows for arbitrarily large xattrs. However, it also suffers from a significant performance penalty. Accessing a single xattr can requires up to three disk seeks. 1) Lookup the dnode object. 2) Lookup the dnodes's xattr directory object. 3) Lookup the xattr object in the directory. To avoid this performance penalty Linux filesystems such as ext3 and xfs try to store the xattr as part of the inode on disk. When the xattr is to large to store in the inode then a single external block is allocated for them. In practice most xattrs are small and this approach works well. The addition of System Attributes (SA) to zfs provides us a clean way to make this optimization. When the dataset property 'xattr=sa' is set then xattrs will be preferentially stored as System Attributes. This allows tiny xattrs (~100 bytes) to be stored with the dnode and up to 64k of xattrs to be stored in the spill block. If additional xattr space is required, which is unlikely under Linux, they will be stored using the traditional directory approach. This optimization results in roughly a 3x performance improvement when accessing xattrs which brings zfs roughly to parity with ext4 and xfs (see table below). When multiple xattrs are stored per-file the performance improvements are even greater because all of the xattrs stored in the spill block will be cached. However, by default SA based xattrs are disabled in the Linux port to maximize compatibility with other implementations. If you do enable SA based xattrs then they will not be visible on platforms which do not support this feature. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Time in seconds to get/set one xattr of N bytes on 100,000 files ------+--------------------------------+------------------------------ | setxattr | getxattr bytes | ext4 xfs zfs-dir zfs-sa | ext4 xfs zfs-dir zfs-sa ------+--------------------------------+------------------------------ 1 | 2.33 31.88 21.50 4.57 | 2.35 2.64 6.29 2.43 32 | 2.79 30.68 21.98 4.60 | 2.44 2.59 6.78 2.48 256 | 3.25 31.99 21.36 5.92 | 2.32 2.71 6.22 3.14 1024 | 3.30 32.61 22.83 8.45 | 2.40 2.79 6.24 3.27 4096 | 3.57 317.46 22.52 10.73 | 2.78 28.62 6.90 3.94 16384 | n/a 2342.39 34.30 19.20 | n/a 45.44 145.90 7.55 65536 | n/a 2941.39 128.15 131.32* | n/a 141.92 256.85 262.12* Legend: * ext4 - Stock RHEL6.1 ext4 mounted with '-o user_xattr'. * xfs - Stock RHEL6.1 xfs mounted with default options. * zfs-dir - Directory based xattrs only. * zfs-sa - Prefer SAs but spill in to directories as needed, a trailing * indicates overflow in to directories occured.

ZPL_DXATTR,
Project Quota on ZFS Project quota is a new ZFS system space/object usage accounting and enforcement mechanism. Similar as user/group quota, project quota is another dimension of system quota. It bases on the new object attribute - project ID. Project ID is a numerical value to indicate to which project an object belongs. An object only can belong to one project though you (the object owner or privileged user) can change the object project ID via 'chattr -p' or 'zfs project [-s] -p' explicitly. The object also can inherit the project ID from its parent when created if the parent has the project inherit flag (that can be set via 'chattr +P' or 'zfs project -s [-p]'). By accounting the spaces/objects belong to the same project, we can know how many spaces/objects used by the project. And if we set the upper limit then we can control the spaces/objects that are consumed by such project. It is useful when multiple groups and users cooperate for the same project, or a user/group needs to participate in multiple projects. Support the following commands and functionalities: zfs set projectquota@project zfs set projectobjquota@project zfs get projectquota@project zfs get projectobjquota@project zfs get projectused@project zfs get projectobjused@project zfs projectspace zfs allow projectquota zfs allow projectobjquota zfs allow projectused zfs allow projectobjused zfs unallow projectquota zfs unallow projectobjquota zfs unallow projectused zfs unallow projectobjused chattr +/-P chattr -p project_id lsattr -p This patch also supports tree quota based on the project quota via "zfs project" commands set as following: zfs project [-d|-r] <file|directory ...> zfs project -C [-k] [-r] <file|directory ...> zfs project -c [-0] [-d|-r] [-p id] <file|directory ...> zfs project [-p id] [-r] [-s] <file|directory ...> For "df [-i] $DIR" command, if we set INHERIT (project ID) flag on the $DIR, then the proejct [obj]quota and [obj]used values for the $DIR's project ID will be shown as the total/free (avail) resource.

Volumes, like filesystems, are limited by the zfs_max_recordsize=1M module option. * By default the maximum record size is limited to 1M by the module option zfs_max_recordsize. This value may be safely increased up to 16M which is the largest block size supported by the on-disk format. At the moment, 1M blocks clearly offer a significant performance improvement but the benefits of going beyond this for the majority of workloads are less clear. * The illumos version of this patch increased DMU_MAX_ACCESS to 32M. This was determined not to be large enough when using 16M blocks because the zfs_make_xattrdir() function will fail (EFBIG) when assigning a TX. This was immediately observed under Linux because all newly created files must have a security xattr created and that was failing. Therefore, we've set DMU_MAX_ACCESS to 64M. * On 32-bit platforms a hard limit of 1M is set for blocks due to the limited virtual address space. We should be able to relax this one the ABD patches are merged. Ported-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Closes #354

However, it also suffers from a significant performance penalty. Accessing a single xattr can requires up to three disk seeks. 1) Lookup the dnode object. 2) Lookup the dnodes's xattr directory object. 3) Lookup the xattr object in the directory. To avoid this performance penalty Linux filesystems such as ext3 and xfs try to store the xattr as part of the inode on disk. When the xattr is to large to store in the inode then a single external block is allocated for them. In practice most xattrs are small and this approach works well. The addition of System Attributes (SA) to zfs provides us a clean way to make this optimization. When the dataset property 'xattr=sa' is set then xattrs will be preferentially stored as System Attributes. This allows tiny xattrs (~100 bytes) to be stored with the dnode and up to 64k of xattrs to be stored in the spill block. If additional xattr space is required, which is unlikely under Linux, they will be stored using the traditional directory approach. This optimization results in roughly a 3x performance improvement when accessing xattrs which brings zfs roughly to parity with ext4 and xfs (see table below). When multiple xattrs are stored per-file the performance improvements are even greater because all of the xattrs stored in the spill block will be cached. However, by default SA based xattrs are disabled in the Linux port to maximize compatibility with other implementations. If you do enable SA based xattrs then they will not be visible on platforms which do not support this feature. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Time in seconds to get/set one xattr of N bytes on 100,000 files ------+--------------------------------+------------------------------ | setxattr | getxattr bytes | ext4 xfs zfs-dir zfs-sa | ext4 xfs zfs-dir zfs-sa ------+--------------------------------+------------------------------ 1 | 2.33 31.88 21.50 4.57 | 2.35 2.64 6.29 2.43 32 | 2.79 30.68 21.98 4.60 | 2.44 2.59 6.78 2.48 256 | 3.25 31.99 21.36 5.92 | 2.32 2.71 6.22 3.14 1024 | 3.30 32.61 22.83 8.45 | 2.40 2.79 6.24 3.27 4096 | 3.57 317.46 22.52 10.73 | 2.78 28.62 6.90 3.94 16384 | n/a 2342.39 34.30 19.20 | n/a 45.44 145.90 7.55 65536 | n/a 2941.39 128.15 131.32* | n/a 141.92 256.85 262.12* Legend: * ext4 - Stock RHEL6.1 ext4 mounted with '-o user_xattr'. * xfs - Stock RHEL6.1 xfs mounted with default options. * zfs-dir - Directory based xattrs only. * zfs-sa - Prefer SAs but spill in to directories as needed, a trailing * indicates overflow in to directories occured.
