24 * This file implements garbage collection. The procedure for garbage collection
25 * is different depending on whether a LEB as an index LEB (contains index
26 * nodes) or not. For non-index LEBs, garbage collection finds a LEB which
27 * contains a lot of dirty space (obsolete nodes), and copies the non-obsolete
28 * nodes to the journal, at which point the garbage-collected LEB is free to be
29 * reused. For index LEBs, garbage collection marks the non-obsolete index nodes
30 * dirty in the TNC, and after the next commit, the garbage-collected LEB is
31 * to be reused. Garbage collection will cause the number of dirty index nodes
32 * to grow, however sufficient space is reserved for the index to ensure the
33 * commit will never run out of space.
35 * Notes about dead watermark. At current UBIFS implementation we assume that
36 * LEBs which have less than @c->dead_wm bytes of free + dirty space are full
37 * and not worth garbage-collecting. The dead watermark is one min. I/O unit
38 * size, or min. UBIFS node size, depending on what is greater. Indeed, UBIFS
39 * Garbage Collector has to synchronize the GC head's write buffer before
40 * returning, so this is about wasting one min. I/O unit. However, UBIFS GC can
41 * actually reclaim even very small pieces of dirty space by garbage collecting
42 * enough dirty LEBs, but we do not bother doing this at this implementation.
44 * Notes about dark watermark. The results of GC work depends on how big are
45 * the UBIFS nodes GC deals with. Large nodes make GC waste more space. Indeed,
46 * if GC move data from LEB A to LEB B and nodes in LEB A are large, GC would
47 * have to waste large pieces of free space at the end of LEB B, because nodes
48 * from LEB A would not fit. And the worst situation is when all nodes are of
49 * maximum size. So dark watermark is the amount of free + dirty space in LEB
50 * which are guaranteed to be reclaimable. If LEB has less space, the GC might
51 * be unable to reclaim it. So, LEBs with free + dirty greater than dark
52 * watermark are "good" LEBs from GC's point of few. The other LEBs are not so
53 * good, and GC takes extra care when moving them.

621 * o other negative error codes in case of other errors.
623 * Garbage collector writes data to the journal when GC'ing data LEBs, and just
624 * marking indexing nodes dirty when GC'ing indexing LEBs. Thus, at some point
625 * commit may be required. But commit cannot be run from inside GC, because the
626 * caller might be holding the commit lock, so %-EAGAIN is returned instead;
627 * And this error code means that the caller has to run commit, and re-run GC
628 * if there is still no free space.
630 * There are many reasons why this function may return %-EAGAIN:
631 * o the log is full and there is no space to write an LEB reference for
632 * @c->gc_lnum;
633 * o the journal is too large and exceeds size limitations;
634 * o GC moved indexing LEBs, but they can be used only after the commit;
635 * o the shrinker fails to find clean znodes to free and requests the commit;
636 * o etc.
638 * Note, if the file-system is close to be full, this function may return
639 * %-EAGAIN infinitely, so the caller has to limit amount of re-invocations of
640 * the function. E.g., this happens if the limits on the journal size are too
641 * tough and GC writes too much to the journal before an LEB is freed. This
642 * might also mean that the journal is too large, and the TNC becomes to big,
643 * so that the shrinker is constantly called, finds not clean znodes to free,
644 * and requests commit. Well, this may also happen if the journal is all right,
645 * but another kernel process consumes too much memory. Anyway, infinite
646 * %-EAGAIN may happen, but in some extreme/misconfiguration cases.
