Christoph Hellwig 431547b3c4 sanitize xattr handler prototypes
Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr
handler methods.  This allows using the same methods for multiple
handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action
for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying
attribute.  With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the
methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and
jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch.

Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow
using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later,
e.g. cifs.

Christoph Hellwig 6b2f3d1f76 vfs: Implement proper O_SYNC semantics
While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until
Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems,
since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the
great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC" comment.  This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC
semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics.  After Jan's O_SYNC
patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly
simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to
vfs_fsync_range and when not.

This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's
numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC
flag.  To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to
both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make
sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers.

This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can
just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only
places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition.  Drivers and
network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the
full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set.  The few places setting O_SYNC for
lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe.

We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path
to make sure we always get these sane options.

Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a
O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op.  We try to repair it by using it for
the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional
O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

Josef Bacik a6dbd429d8 Btrfs: fix panic when trying to destroy a newly allocated
There is a problem where iget5_locked will look for an inode, not find it, and
then subsequently try to allocate it.  Another CPU will have raced in and
allocated the inode instead, so when iget5_locked gets the inode spin lock again
and does a search, it finds the new inode.  So it goes ahead and calls
destroy_inode on the inode it just allocated.  The problem is we don't set
BTRFS_I(inode)->root until the new inode is completely initialized.  This patch
makes us set root to NULL when alloc'ing a new inode, so when we get to
btrfs_destroy_inode and we see that root is NULL we can just free up the memory
and continue on.  This fixes the panic

Chris Mason 33b2580864 Btrfs: allow more metadata chunk preallocation
On an FS where all of the space has not been allocated into chunks yet,
the enospc can return enospc just because the existing metadata chunks
are full.

We get around this by allowing more metadata chunks to be allocated up
to a certain limit, and finding the right limit is a little fuzzy.  The
problem is the reservations for delalloc would preallocate way too much
of the FS as metadata.  We need to start saying no and just force some
IO to happen.

But we also need to let a reasonable amount of the FS become metadata.
This bumps the hard limit up, later releases will have a better system.

Josef Bacik f5a84ee3cd Btrfs: fallback on uncompressed io if compressed io fails
Currently compressed IO does not deal with not having its entire extent able to
be allocated.  So if we have enough free space to allocate for the extent, but
its not contiguous, it will fail spectacularly.  This patch fixes this by
falling back on uncompressed IO which lets us spread the delalloc extent across
multiple extents.  I tested this by making us randomly think the reservation had
failed to make it fallback on the uncompressed io way and it seemed to work
fine.  Thanks,

Josef Bacik ccf0e72537 Btrfs: find ideal block group for caching
This patch changes a few things.  Hopefully the comments are helpfull, but
I'll try and be as verbose here.

Problem:

My fedora box was taking 1 minute and 21 seconds to boot with btrfs as root.
Part of this problem was we pick the first block group we can find and start
caching it, even if it may not have enough free space.  The other problem is
we only search for cached block groups the first time around, which we won't
find any cached block groups because this is a newly mounted fs, so we end up
caching several block groups during bootup, which with alot of fragmentation
takes around 30-45 seconds to complete, which bogs down the system.  So

Solution:

1) Don't cache block groups willy-nilly at first.  Instead try and figure out
which block group has the most free, and therefore will take the least amount
of time to cache.

2) Don't be so picky about cached block groups.  The other problem is once
we've filled up a cluster, if the block group isn't finished caching the next
time we try and do the allocation we'll completely ignore the cluster and
start searching from the beginning of the space, which makes us cache more
block groups, which slows us down even more.  So instead of skipping block
groups that are not finished caching when we have a hint, only skip the block
group if it hasn't started caching yet.

There is one other tweak in here.  Before if we allocated a chunk and still
couldn't find new space, we'd end up switching the space info to force another
chunk allocation.  This could make us end up with way too many chunks, so keep
track of this particular case.

With this patch and my previous cluster fixes my fedora box now boots in 43
seconds, and according to the bootchart is not held up by our block group
caching at all.

Josef Bacik 01dea1efc2 Btrfs: fix how we set max_size for free space clusters
This patch fixes a problem where max_size can be set to 0 even though we
filled the cluster properly.  We set max_size to 0 if we restart the cluster
window, but if the new start entry is big enough to be our new cluster then we
could return with a max_size set to 0, which will mean the next time we try to
allocate from this cluster it will fail.  So set max_extent to the entry's
size.  Tested this on my box and now we actually allocate from the cluster
after we fill it.  Thanks,

Sometimes our start allocation hint when we cow a file can be either
EXTENT_HOLE or some other such place holder, which is not optimal.  So if we
find that our em->block_start is one of these special values, check to see
where the first block of the inode is stored, and use that as a hint.  If that
block is also a special value, just fallback on a hint of 0 and let the
allocator figure out a good place to put the data.

We have an optimization in btrfs to allow blocks to be
immediately freed if they were allocated in this transaction and never
written.  Otherwise they are pinned and freed when the transaction
commits.

This isn't optimal for discard mode because immediately freeing
them means immediately discarding them.  It is better to give the
block to the pinning code and letting the (slow) discard happen later.

Chris Mason 690587d109 Btrfs: streamline tree-log btree block writeout
Syncing the tree log is a 3 phase operation.

1) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for a given root.

2) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for the
tree of tree log roots.

3) write and wait for the super blocks (barriers here)

This isn't as efficient as it could be because there is
no requirement to wait for the blocks from step one to hit the disk
before we start writing the blocks from step two.  This commit
changes the sequence so that we don't start waiting until
all the tree blocks from both steps one and two have been sent
to disk.

We do this by breaking up btrfs_write_wait_marked_extents into
two functions, which is trivial because it was already broken
up into two parts.

Chris Mason 257c62e1bc Btrfs: avoid tree log commit when there are no changes
rpm has a habit of running fdatasync when the file hasn't
changed.  We already detect if a file hasn't been changed
in the current transaction but it might have been sent to
the tree-log in this transaction and not changed since
the last call to fsync.

In this case, we want to avoid a tree log sync, which includes
a number of synchronous writes and barriers.  This commit
extends the existing tracking of the last transaction to change
a file to also track the last sub-transaction.

The end result is that rpm -ivh and -Uvh are roughly twice as fast,
and on par with ext3.

This patch moves the delalloc flushing that occurs when we are under space
pressure off to a async thread pool.  This helps since we only free up
metadata space when we actually insert the extent item, which means it takes
quite a while for space to be free'ed up if we wait on all ordered extents.
However, if space is freed up due to inline extents being inserted, we can
wake people who are waiting up early, and they can finish their work.

Josef Bacik 32c00aff71 Btrfs: release delalloc reservations on extent item insertion
This patch fixes an issue with the delalloc metadata space reservation
code.  The problem is we used to free the reservation as soon as we
allocated the delalloc region.  The problem with this is if we are not
inserting an inline extent, we don't actually insert the extent item until
after the ordered extent is written out.  This patch does 3 things,

1) It moves the reservation clearing stuff into the ordered code, so when
we remove the ordered extent we remove the reservation.
2) It adds a EXTENT_DO_ACCOUNTING flag that gets passed when we clear
delalloc bits in the cases where we want to clear the metadata reservation
when we clear the delalloc extent, in the case that we do an inline extent
or we invalidate the page.
3) It adds another waitqueue to the space info so that when we start a fs
wide delalloc flush, anybody else who also hits that area will simply wait
for the flush to finish and then try to make their allocation.

This has been tested thoroughly to make sure we did not regress on
performance.

Chris Mason a3429ab70b Btrfs: delay clearing EXTENT_DELALLOC for compressed extents
When compression is on, the cow_file_range code is farmed off to
worker threads.  This allows us to do significant CPU work in parallel
on SMP machines.

But it is a delicate balance around when we clear flags and how.  In
the past we cleared the delalloc flag immediately, which was safe
because the pages stayed locked.

But this is causing problems with the newest ENOSPC code, and with the
recent extent state cleanups we can now clear the delalloc bit at the
same time the uncompressed code does.

Josef Bacik 1cdda9b81a Btrfs: fix possible softlockup in the allocator
Like the cluster allocating stuff, we can lockup the box with the normal
allocation path.  This happens when we

1) Start to cache a block group that is severely fragmented, but has a decent
amount of free space.
2) Start to commit a transaction
3) Have the commit try and empty out some of the delalloc inodes with extents
that are relatively large.

The inodes will not be able to make the allocations because they will ask for
allocations larger than a contiguous area in the free space cache.  So we will
wait for more progress to be made on the block group, but since we're in a
commit the caching kthread won't make any more progress and it already has
enough free space that wait_block_group_cache_progress will just return.  So,
if we wait and fail to make the allocation the next time around, just loop and
go to the next block group.  This keeps us from getting stuck in a softlockup.

Chris Mason 61d92c328c Btrfs: fix deadlock on async thread startup
The btrfs async worker threads are used for a wide variety of things,
including processing bio end_io functions.  This means that when
the endio threads aren't running, the rest of the FS isn't
able to do the final processing required to clear PageWriteback.

The endio threads also try to exit as they become idle and
start more as the work piles up.  The problem is that starting more
threads means kthreadd may need to allocate ram, and that allocation
may wait until the global number of writeback pages on the system is
below a certain limit.

The result of that throttling is that end IO threads wait on
kthreadd, who is waiting on IO to end, which will never happen.

This commit fixes the deadlock by handing off thread startup to a
dedicated thread.  It also fixes a bug where the on-demand thread
creation was creating far too many threads because it didn't take into
account threads being started by other procs.

Josef Bacik fbf1908744 Btrfs: fix data space leak fix
There is a problem where page_mkwrite can be called on a dirtied page that
already has a delalloc range associated with it.  The fix is to clear any
delalloc bits for the range we are dirtying so the space accounting gets
handled properly.  This is the same thing we do in the normal write case, so we
are consistent across the board.  With this patch we no longer leak reserved
space.

Christoph Hellwig 8aa38c31b7 Btrfs: remove duplicates of filemap_ helpers
Use filemap_fdatawrite_range and filemap_fdatawait_range instead of
local copies of the functions.  For filemap_fdatawait_range that
also means replacing the awkward old wait_on_page_writeback_range
calling convention with the regular filemap byte offsets.

Chris Mason ab93dbecfb Btrfs: take i_mutex before generic_write_checks
btrfs_file_write was incorrectly calling generic_write_checks without
taking i_mutex.  This lead to problems with racing around i_size when
doing O_APPEND writes.

The fix here is to move i_mutex higher.

Sage Weil dd7e0b7b02 Btrfs: fix deadlock with free space handling and user transactions
If an ioctl-initiated transaction is open, we can't force a commit during
the free space checks in order to free up pinned extents or else we
deadlock.  Just ENOSPC instead.

A more satisfying solution that reserves space for the entire user
transaction up front is forthcoming...
