Revision 70afa3998c9baed4186df38988246de1abdab56d authored by Josef Bacik on 06 February 2013, 18:53:19 UTC, committed by Josef Bacik on 20 February 2013, 17:59:32 UTC
People have been complaining about random ENOSPC errors that will clear up after a umount or just a given amount of time. Chris was able to reproduce this with stress.sh and lots of processes and so was I. Basically the overcommit stuff would really let us get out of hand, in my tests I saw up to 30 gigs of outstanding reservations with only 2 gigs total of metadata space. This usually worked out fine but with so much outstanding reservation the flushing stuff short circuits to make sure we don't hang forever flushing when we really need ENOSPC. Plus we allocate chunks in order to alleviate the pressure, but this doesn't actually help us since we only use the non-allocated area in our over commit logic. So instead of basing overcommit on the amount of non-allocated space, instead just do it based on how much total space we have, and then limit it to the non-allocated space in case we are short on space to spill over into. This allows us to have the same performance as well as no longer giving random ENOSPC. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com>
