Changelog V1 -> V2:
- break up the global rb-tree, use a list to manage the delayed nodes,
which is created for every directory and file, and used to manage the
delayed directory name index items and the delayed inode item.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed nodes.
Compare with Ext3/4, the performance of file creation and deletion on btrfs
is very poor. the reason is that btrfs must do a lot of b+ tree insertions,
such as inode item, directory name item, directory name index and so on.
If we can do some delayed b+ tree insertion or deletion, we can improve the
performance, so we made this patch which implemented delayed directory name
index insertion/deletion and delayed inode update.
Implementation:
- introduce a delayed root object into the filesystem, that use two lists to
manage the delayed nodes which are created for every file/directory.
One is used to manage all the delayed nodes that have delayed items. And the
other is used to manage the delayed nodes which is waiting to be dealt with
by the work thread.
- Every delayed node has two rb-tree, one is used to manage the directory name
index which is going to be inserted into b+ tree, and the other is used to
manage the directory name index which is going to be deleted from b+ tree.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed operation. This worker is used
to deal with the works of the delayed directory name index items insertion
and deletion and the delayed inode update.
When the delayed items is beyond the lower limit, we create works for some
delayed nodes and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then
go back.
When the delayed items is beyond the upper bound, we create works for all
the delayed nodes that haven't been dealt with, and insert them into the work
queue of the worker, and then wait for that the untreated items is below some
threshold value.
- When we want to insert a directory name index into b+ tree, we just add the
information into the delayed inserting rb-tree.
And then we check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items
balance. (The balance policy is above.)
- When we want to delete a directory name index from the b+ tree, we search it
in the inserting rb-tree at first. If we look it up, just drop it. If not,
add the key of it into the delayed deleting rb-tree.
Similar to the delayed inserting rb-tree, we also check the number of the
delayed items and do delayed items balance.
(The same to inserting manipulation)
- When we want to update the metadata of some inode, we cached the data of the
inode into the delayed node. the worker will flush it into the b+ tree after
dealing with the delayed insertion and deletion.
- We will move the delayed node to the tail of the list after we access the
delayed node, By this way, we can cache more delayed items and merge more
inode updates.
- If we want to commit transaction, we will deal with all the delayed node.
- the delayed node will be freed when we free the btrfs inode.
- Before we log the inode items, we commit all the directory name index items
and the delayed inode update.
I did a quick test by the benchmark tool[1] and found we can improve the
performance of file creation by ~15%, and file deletion by ~20%.

FS_COW_FL and FS_NOCOW_FL were newly introduced to control per file
COW in btrfs, but FS_NOCOW_FL is sufficient.
The fact is we don't have corresponding BTRFS_INODE_COW flag.
COW is default, and FS_NOCOW_FL can be used to switch off COW for
a single file.
If we mount btrfs with nodatacow, a newly created file will be set with
the FS_NOCOW_FL flag. So to turn on COW for it, we can just clear the
FS_NOCOW_FL flag.

This is similar to block group caching.
We dedicate a special inode in fs tree to save free ino cache.
At the very first time we create/delete a file after mount, the free ino
cache will be loaded from disk into memory. When the fs tree is commited,
the cache will be written back to disk.
To keep compatibility, we check the root generation against the generation
of the special inode when loading the cache, so the loading will fail
if the btrfs filesystem was mounted in an older kernel before.

There's a potential problem in 32bit system when we exhaust 32bit inode
numbers and start to allocate big inode numbers, because btrfs uses
inode->i_ino in many places.
So here we always use BTRFS_I(inode)->location.objectid, which is an
u64 variable.
There are 2 exceptions that BTRFS_I(inode)->location.objectid !=
inode->i_ino: the btree inode (0 vs 1) and empty subvol dirs (256 vs 2),
and inode->i_ino will be used in those cases.
Another reason to make this change is I'm going to use a special inode
to save free ino cache, and the inode number must be > (u64)-256.

Extract out block group specific code from lookup_free_space_inode(),

Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com>
Currently btrfs stores the highest objectid of the fs tree, and it always
returns (highest+1) inode number when we create a file, so inode numbers
won't be reclaimed when we delete files, so we'll run out of inode numbers
as we keep create/delete files in 32bits machines.
This fixes it, and it works similarly to how we cache free space in block
cgroups.
We start a kernel thread to read the file tree. By scanning inode items,
we know which chunks of inode numbers are free, and we cache them in
an rb-tree.
Because we are searching the commit root, we have to carefully handle the
cross-transaction case.
The rb-tree is a hybrid extent+bitmap tree, so if we have too many small
chunks of inode numbers, we'll use bitmaps. Initially we allow 16K ram
of extents, and a bitmap will be used if we exceed this threshold. The
extents threshold is adjusted in runtime.

So we can re-use the code to cache free inode numbers.
The change is quite straightforward. Two new structures are introduced.
- struct btrfs_free_space_ctl
We move those variables that are used for caching free space from
struct btrfs_block_group_cache to this new struct.
- struct btrfs_free_space_op
We do block group specific work (e.g. calculation of extents threshold)
through functions registered in this struct.
And then we can remove references to struct btrfs_block_group_cache.

The Btrfs submit bio threads have a small number of
threads responsible for pushing down bios we've collected
for a large number of devices.
Since we do all the bios for a single device at once,
we want to make sure we unplug and send down the bios
for each device as we're done processing them.
The new plugging API removed the btrfs code to
unplug while processing bios, this adds it back with
the new API.

The free space caching code was recently reworked to

One loop was missed though, so it ended up leaking pages. This fixes

find_free_extent likes to allocate in contiguous clusters,
which makes writeback faster, especially on SSD storage. As
the FS fragments, these clusters become harder to find and we have
to decide between allocating a new chunk to make more clusters
or giving up on the cluster to allocate from the free space
we have.
Right now it creates too many chunks, and you can end up with
a whole FS that is mostly empty metadata chunks. This commit
changes the allocation code to be more strict and only
allocate new chunks when we've made good use of the chunks we
already have.

The extent_io code can take cached pointers into the extent state trees,
and these can make lookups much faster in common operations. The
caching only happens when specific bits are set that prevent merging
and splitting of the extent state.
A help function was added to uncache the state, and it was testing
the same set of conditionals. This can leak in very strange corner
cases where the lock bit goes away unexpectedly.
The uncaching should be unconditional. Once we have a ref on the
extent we should always give it up.

In several places the sequence (set_extent_uptodate, unlock_extent) is used.
This leads to a duplicate lookup of the extent state. This patch lets
set_extent_uptodate return a cached extent_state which can be passed to
unlock_extent_cached.
The occurences of the above sequences are updated to use the cache. Only
end_bio_extent_readpage is updated that it first gets a cached state to
pass it to the readpage_end_io_hook as the prototype requested and is later
on being used for set/unlock.

We create two subvolumes (meego_root and meego_home) in
btrfs root directory. And set meego_root as default mount
subvolume. After we remount btrfs, meego_root is mounted
to top directory by default. Then when we try to mount
meego_home (subvol=meego_home) to a subdirectory, it failed.
The problem is when default mount subvolume is set to
meego_root, we search meego_home in meego_root but can not find
it. So the solution is to add a new mount option (subvolrootid)
to specify subvol id of root and search subvol name in it. For
our case, now we can use "-o subvolrootid=0,subvol=meego_home)
to mount meego_home.

In btrfs_get_block_direct we call btrfs_get_extent to lookup the extent for the
range that we are looking for. If we don't find an extent, btrfs_get_extent
will insert a extent_map for that area and mark it as a hole. So it does the
job of allocating a new extent map and inserting it into the io tree. But if
we're creating a new extent we free it up and redo all of that work. So instead
pass the em to btrfs_new_extent_direct(), and if it will work just allocate the

extent map and the expensive operation of inserting the thing into the io_tree.
