Commits are fairly expensive, and so btrfs has code to sit around for a while
during the commit and let new writers come in.
But, while we're sitting there, new delayed refs might be added, and those
can be expensive to process as well. Unless the transaction is very very
young, it makes sense to go ahead and let the commit finish without hanging
around.
The commit grow loop isn't as important as it used to be, the fsync logging
code handles most performance critical syncs now.

To avoid deadlocks and reduce latencies during some critical operations, some
transaction writers are allowed to jump into the running transaction and make
it run a little longer, while others sit around and wait for the commit to
finish.
This is a bit unfair, especially when the callers that jump in do a bunch
of IO that makes all the others procs on the box wait. This commit
reduces the stalls this produces by pre-reading file extent pointers
during btrfs_finish_ordered_io before the transaction is joined.
It also tunes the drop_snapshot code to politely wait for transactions
that have started writing out their delayed refs to finish. This avoids
new delayed refs being flooded into the queue while we're trying to
close off the transaction.

The delayed reference queue maintains pending operations that need to
be done to the extent allocation tree. These are processed by
finding records in the tree that are not currently being processed one at
a time.
This is slow because it uses lots of time searching through the rbtree
and because it creates lock contention on the extent allocation tree
when lots of different procs are running delayed refs at the same time.
This commit changes things to grab a cluster of refs for processing,
using a cursor into the rbtree as the starting point of the next search.
This way we walk smoothly through the rbtree.

Many of the tree balancing functions follow the same pattern.
1) cow a block

This commit breaks them up into two functions so the variables and
code required for part two don't suck down stack during part one.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
The extent allocation tree maintains a reference count and full
back reference information for every extent allocated in the
filesystem. For subvolume and snapshot trees, every time
a block goes through COW, the new copy of the block adds a reference
on every block it points to.
If a btree node points to 150 leaves, then the COW code needs to go
and add backrefs on 150 different extents, which might be spread all
over the extent allocation tree.
These updates currently happen during btrfs_cow_block, and most COWs
happen during btrfs_search_slot. btrfs_search_slot has locks held
on both the parent and the node we are COWing, and so we really want
to avoid IO during the COW if we can.
This commit adds an rbtree of pending reference count updates and extent
allocations. The tree is ordered by byte number of the extent and byte number
of the parent for the back reference. The tree allows us to:
1) Modify back references in something close to disk order, reducing seeks
2) Significantly reduce the number of modifications made as block pointers
are balanced around
3) Do all of the extent insertion and back reference modifications outside
of the performance critical btrfs_search_slot code.
#3 has the added benefit of greatly reducing the btrfs stack footprint.
The extent allocation tree modifications are done without the deep
(and somewhat recursive) call chains used in the past.
These delayed back reference updates must be done before the transaction
commits, and so the rbtree is tied to the transaction. Throttling is
implemented to help keep the queue of backrefs at a reasonable size.
Since there was a similar mechanism in place for the extent tree
extents, that is removed and replaced by the delayed reference tree.

Storage allocated to different raid levels in btrfs is tracked by
a btrfs_space_info structure, and all of the current space_infos are
collected into a list_head.

only changed when new raid levels are added or at unmount time.
This commit adds rcu locking on the list head, and properly frees
things at unmount time. It also clears the space_info->full flag
whenever new space is added to the FS.
The locking for the space info list goes like this:
reads: protected by rcu_read_lock()
writes: protected by the chunk_mutex
At unmount time we don't need special locking because all the readers
are gone.

This fixes a problem where we could return -ENOSPC when we may actually have

immediately, commit the transaction first and then try and do the allocation

This is a step in the direction of better -ENOSPC handling. Instead of
checking the global bytes counter we check the space_info bytes counters to
make sure we have enough space.
If we don't we go ahead and try to allocate a new chunk, and then if that fails
we return -ENOSPC. This patch adds two counters to btrfs_space_info,
bytes_delalloc and bytes_may_use.
bytes_delalloc account for extents we've actually setup for delalloc and will
be allocated at some point down the line.
bytes_may_use is to keep track of how many bytes we may use for delalloc at
some point. When we actually set the extent_bit for the delalloc bytes we
subtract the reserved bytes from the bytes_may_use counter. This keeps us from
not actually being able to allocate space for any delalloc bytes.

Btrfs is currently using spin_lock_nested with a nested value based
on the tree depth of the block. But, this doesn't quite work because
the max tree depth is bigger than what spin_lock_nested can deal with,
and because locks are sometimes taken before the level field is filled in.
The solution here is to use lockdep_set_class_and_name instead, and to
set the class before unlocking the pages when the block is read from the
disk and just after init of a freshly allocated tree block.
btrfs_clear_path_blocking is also changed to take the locks in the proper
order, and it also makes sure all the locks currently held are properly
set to blocking before it tries to retake the spinlocks. Otherwise, lockdep
gets upset about bad lock orderin.

Btrfs was using spin_is_contended to see if it should drop locks before
doing extent allocations during btrfs_search_slot. The idea was to avoid
expensive searches in the tree unless the lock was actually contended.
But, spin_is_contended is specific to the ticket spinlocks on x86, so this
is causing compile errors everywhere else.
In practice, the contention could easily appear some time after we started
doing the extent allocation, and it makes more sense to always drop the lock
instead.

Every transaction in btrfs creates a new snapshot, and then schedules the
snapshot from the last transaction for deletion. Snapshot deletion
works by walking down the btree and dropping the reference counts
on each btree block during the walk.
If if a given leaf or node has a reference count greater than one,
the reference count is decremented and the subtree pointed to by that
node is ignored.
If the reference count is one, walking continues down into that node
or leaf, and the references of everything it points to are decremented.
The old code would try to work in small pieces, walking down the tree
until it found the lowest leaf or node to free and then returning. This
was very friendly to the rest of the FS because it didn't have a huge
impact on other operations.
But it wouldn't always keep up with the rate that new commits added new
snapshots for deletion, and it wasn't very optimal for the extent
allocation tree because it wasn't finding leaves that were close together
on disk and processing them at the same time.
This changes things to walk down to a level 1 node and then process it
in bulk. All the leaf pointers are sorted and the leaves are dropped
in order based on their extent number.
The extent allocation tree and commit code are now fast enough for
this kind of bulk processing to work without slowing the rest of the FS
down. Overall it does less IO and is better able to keep up with
snapshot deletions under high load.

Most of the btrfs metadata operations can be protected by a spinlock,
but some operations still need to schedule.
So far, btrfs has been using a mutex along with a trylock loop,
most of the time it is able to avoid going for the full mutex, so
the trylock loop is a big performance gain.
This commit is step one for getting rid of the blocking locks entirely.
btrfs_tree_lock takes a spinlock, and the code explicitly switches
to a blocking lock when it starts an operation that can schedule.
We'll be able get rid of the blocking locks in smaller pieces over time.
Tracing allows us to find the most common cause of blocking, so we
can start with the hot spots first.
The basic idea is:
btrfs_tree_lock() returns with the spin lock held
btrfs_set_lock_blocking() sets the EXTENT_BUFFER_BLOCKING bit in
the extent buffer flags, and then drops the spin lock. The buffer is
still considered locked by all of the btrfs code.
If btrfs_tree_lock gets the spinlock but finds the blocking bit set, it drops
the spin lock and waits on a wait queue for the blocking bit to go away.
Much of the code that needs to set the blocking bit finishes without actually
blocking a good percentage of the time. So, an adaptive spin is still
used against the blocking bit to avoid very high context switch rates.
btrfs_clear_lock_blocking() clears the blocking bit and returns
with the spinlock held again.
btrfs_tree_unlock() can be called on either blocking or spinning locks,
it does the right thing based on the blocking bit.
ctree.c has a helper function to set/clear all the locked buffers in a
path as blocking.

Before metadata is written to disk, it is updated to reflect that writeout
has begun. Once this update is done, the block must be cow'd before it
can be modified again.
This update was originally synchronized by using a per-fs spinlock. Today
the buffers for the metadata blocks are locked before writeout begins,
and everyone that tests the flag has the buffer locked as well.
So, the per-fs spinlock (called hash_lock for no good reason) is no
longer required.

Swapfiles use bmap to build a list of extents belonging to the file,
and they assume these extents won't change over the life of the file.
They also use resulting list to do IO directly to the block device.
This causes problems for btrfs in a few ways:
btrfs returns logical block numbers through bmap, and these are not suitable
for IO. They might translate to different devices, raid etc.
COW means that file block mappings are going to change frequently.
Using swapfiles on btrfs will lead to corruption, so we're avoiding the

Normally this marking happens in btrfs_alloc_free_block, which also does
special recording of dirty tree blocks for the tree log roots.
Yan Zheng noticed that when the root of the log tree is allocated, it is added
to the wrong writeback list. The fix used here is to explicitly set
it dirty as part of tree log creation.

Snapshot creation happens at a specific time during transaction commit. We
need to make sure the code called by snapshot creation doesn't wait
for the running transaction to commit.
This changes btrfs_delete_inode and finish_pending_snaps to use
btrfs_join_transaction instead of btrfs_start_transaction to avoid deadlocks.
It would be better if btrfs_delete_inode didn't use the join, but the

This is a patch to fix discard semantic to make Btrfs work with FTL and SSD.
We can improve FTL's performance by telling it which sectors are freed by file
system. But if we don't tell FTL the information of free sectors in proper
time, the transaction mechanism of Btrfs will be destroyed and Btrfs could not
roll back the previous transaction under the power loss condition.
There are some problems in the old implementation:
1, In __free_extent(), the pinned down extents should not be discarded.
2, In free_extents(), the free extents are all pinned, so they need to
be discarded in transaction committing time instead of free_extents().
3, The reserved extent used by log tree should be discard too.
This patch change discard behavior as follows:
1, For the extents which need to be free at once,
we discard them in update_block_group().
2, Delay discarding the pinned extent in btrfs_finish_extent_commit()
when committing transaction.
3, Remove discarding from free_extents() and __free_extent()
4, Add discard interface into btrfs_free_reserved_extent()
5, Discard sectors before updating the free space cache, otherwise,
FTL will destroy file system data.
drop_one_dir_item does not properly update inode's link count. It can be

Btrfs maintains a cache of blocks available for allocation in ram. The
code that frees extents was marking the extents free and then deleting
the checksum items.
This meant it was possible the extent would be reallocated before the
checksum item was actually deleted, leading to races and other
problems as the checksums were updated for the newly allocated extent.
The fix is to delete the checksum before marking the extent free.

Checksums on data can be disabled by mount option, so it's
possible some data extents don't have checksums or have
invalid checksums. This causes trouble for data relocation.
This patch contains following things to make data relocation

1) make nodatasum/nodatacow mount option only affects new
files. Checksums and COW on data are only controlled by the
inode flags.
2) check the existence of checksum in the nodatacow checker.
If checksums exist, force COW the data extent. This ensure that
checksum for a given block is either valid or does not exist.
3) update data relocation code to properly handle the case

This finishes off the new checksumming code by removing csum items
for extents that are no longer in use.
The trick is doing it without racing because a single csum item may
hold csums for more than one extent. Extra checks are added to
btrfs_csum_file_blocks to make sure that we are using the correct
csum item after dropping locks.
A new btrfs_split_item is added to split a single csum item so it
can be split without dropping the leaf lock. This is used to
remove csum bytes from the middle of an item.

Btrfs stores checksums for each data block. Until now, they have
been stored in the subvolume trees, indexed by the inode that is
referencing the data block. This means that when we read the inode,
we've probably read in at least some checksums as well.
But, this has a few problems:
* The checksums are indexed by logical offset in the file. When
compression is on, this means we have to do the expensive checksumming
on the uncompressed data. It would be faster if we could checksum
the compressed data instead.
* If we implement encryption, we'll be checksumming the plain text and
storing that on disk. This is significantly less secure.
* For either compression or encryption, we have to get the plain text
back before we can verify the checksum as correct. This makes the raid
layer balancing and extent moving much more expensive.
* It makes the front end caching code more complex, as we have touch
the subvolume and inodes as we cache extents.
* There is potentitally one copy of the checksum in each subvolume
referencing an extent.
The solution used here is to store the extent checksums in a dedicated
tree. This allows us to index the checksums by phyiscal extent
start and length. It means:
* The checksum is against the data stored on disk, after any compression
or encryption is done.
* The checksum is stored in a central location, and can be verified without
following back references, or reading inodes.
This makes compression significantly faster by reducing the amount of
data that needs to be checksummed. It will also allow much faster
raid management code in general.
The checksums are indexed by a key with a fixed objectid (a magic value
in ctree.h) and offset set to the starting byte of the extent. This
allows us to copy the checksum items into the fsync log tree directly (or
any other tree), without having to invent a second format for them.

incompat_flags has features that are incompatible with older versions

This patch fixes what I hope is the last early ENOSPC bug left. I did not know
that pinned extents would merge into one big extent when inserted on to the
pinned extent tree, so I was adding free space to a block group that could
possibly span multiple block groups.
This is a big issue because first that space doesn't exist in that block group,
and second we won't actually use that space because there are a bunch of other
checks to make sure we're allocating within the constraints of the block group.
This patch fixes the problem by adding the btrfs_add_free_space to
btrfs_update_pinned_extents which makes sure we are adding the appropriate
amount of free space to the appropriate block group. Thanks much to Lee Trager

While building large bios in writepages, btrfs may end up waiting
for other page writeback to finish if WB_SYNC_ALL is used.
While it is waiting, the bio it is building has a number of pages with the
writeback bit set and they aren't getting to the disk any time soon. This
lowers the latencies of writeback in general by sending down the bio being
built before waiting for other pages.
The bio submission code tries to limit the total number of async bios in
flight by waiting when we're over a certain number of async bios. But,
the waits are happening while writepages is building bios, and this can easily
lead to stalls and other problems for people calling wait_on_page_writeback.
The current fix is to let the congestion tests take care of waiting.
sync() and others make sure to drain the current async requests to make
sure that everything that was pending when the sync was started really get
to disk. The code would drain pending requests both before and after
submitting a new request.
But, if one of the requests is waiting for page writeback to finish,
the draining waits might block that page writeback. This changes the
draining code to only wait after submitting the bio being processed.

Before, all snapshots and subvolumes lived in a single flat directory. This

This commit changes the ioctls to create subvols and snapshots at any
point in the directory tree. This requires making separate ioctls for
snapshot and subvol creation instead of a combining them into one.
The subvol ioctl does:
btrfsctl -S subvol_name parent_dir
After the ioctl is done subvol_name lives inside parent_dir.
The snapshot ioctl does:
btrfsctl -s path_for_snapshot root_to_snapshot
path_for_snapshot can be an absolute or relative path. btrfsctl breaks it up
into directory and basename components.
root_to_snapshot can be any file or directory in the FS. The snapshot
is taken of the entire root where that file lives.

In my batch delete/update/insert patch I introduced a free space leak. The
extent that we do the original search on in free_extents is never pinned, so we
always update the block saying that it has free space, but the free space never
actually gets added to the free space tree, since op->del will always be 0 and
it's never actually added to the pinned extents tree.
This patch fixes this problem by making sure we call pin_down_bytes on the
pending extent op and set op->del to the return value of pin_down_bytes so
update_block_group is called with the right value. This seems to fix the case
where we were getting ENOSPC when there was plenty of space available.

Seed device is a special btrfs with SEEDING super flag

devices allow people to create new btrfs on top of it.

division is for the bootstrap step of adding storage to the seed device.
2) Update device management code to handle seed device.

seed devices are put into a list. Seed devices are
opened on demand at mounting time. If any seed device is
missing or has been changed, btrfs kernel module will
refuse to mount the FS.
