This patch gets rid of two limitations of async block group caching.
The old code delays handling pinned extents when block group is in
caching. To allocate logged file extents, the old code need wait
until block group is fully cached. To get rid of the limitations,
This patch introduces a data structure to track the progress of
caching. Base on the caching progress, we know which extents should
be added to the free space cache when handling the pinned extents.
The logged file extents are also handled in a similar way.
This patch also changes how pinned extents are tracked. The old
code uses one tree to track pinned extents, and copy the pinned
extents tree at transaction commit time. This patch makes it use
two trees to track pinned extents. One tree for extents that are
pinned in the running transaction, one tree for extents that can
be unpinned. At transaction commit time, we swap the two trees.

It was possible for an async worker thread to be selected to
receive a new work item, but exit before the work item was

When btrfs_get_extent is reading inline file items for readpage,
it needs to copy the inline extent into the page. If the
inline extent doesn't cover all of the page, that means there
is a hole in the file, or that our file is smaller than one
page.
readpage does zeroing for the case where the file is smaller than one
page, but nobody is currently zeroing for the case where there is
a hole after the inline item.
This commit changes btrfs_get_extent to zero fill the page past
the end of the inline item.

This closes a whole where the page may be written before

Data COW means that whenever we write to a file, we replace any old
extent pointers with new ones. There was a window where a readpage
might find the old extent pointers on disk and cache them in the
extent_map tree in ram in the middle of a given write replacing them.
Even though both the readpage and the write had their respective bytes
in the file locked, the extent readpage inserts may cover more bytes than
it had locked down.
This commit closes the race by keeping the new extent pinned in the extent
map tree until after the on-disk btree is properly setup with the new
extent pointers.

Btrfs writes go through delalloc to the data=ordered code. This
makes sure that all of the data is on disk before the metadata
that references it. The tracking means that we have to make sure
each page in an extent is fully written before we add that extent into
the on-disk btree.
This was done in the past by setting the EXTENT_ORDERED bit for the
range of an extent when it was added to the data=ordered code, and then
clearing the EXTENT_ORDERED bit in the extent state tree as each page
finished IO.
One of the reasons we had to do this was because sometimes pages are
magically dirtied without page_mkwrite being called. The EXTENT_ORDERED
bit is checked at writepage time, and if it isn't there, our page become
dirty without going through the proper path.
These bit operations make for a number of rbtree searches for each page,
and can cause considerable lock contention.
This commit switches from the EXTENT_ORDERED bit to use PagePrivate2.
As pages go into the ordered code, PagePrivate2 is set on each one.
This is a cheap operation because we already have all the pages locked
and ready to go.
As IO finishes, the PagePrivate2 bit is cleared and the ordered
accoutning is updated for each page.
At writepage time, if the PagePrivate2 bit is missing, we go into the
writepage fixup code to handle improperly dirtied pages.

This changes the btrfs code to find delalloc ranges in the extent state
tree to use the new state caching code from set/test bit. It reduces
one of the biggest causes of rbtree searches in the writeback path.

point while searching.

At writepage time, we have the page locked and we have the
extent_map entry for this extent pinned in the extent_map tree.
So, the page can't go away and its mapping can't change.
There is no need for the extra extent_state lock bits during writepage.

Many of the btrfs extent state tree users follow the same pattern.
They lock an extent range in the tree, do some operation and then
unlock.
This translates to at least 2 rbtree searches, and maybe more if they
are doing operations on the extent state tree. A locked extent
in the tree isn't going to be merged or changed, and so we can
safely return the extent state structure as a cached handle.
This changes set_extent_bit to give back a cached handle, and also
changes both set_extent_bit and clear_extent_bit to use the cached
handle if it is available.

Btrfs is currently mirroring some of the page state bits into
its extent state tree. The goal behind this was to use it in supporting
blocksizes other than the page size.
But, we don't currently support that, and we're using quite a lot of CPU
on the rb tree and its spin lock. This commit starts a series of
cleanups to reduce the amount of work done in the extent state tree as
part of each IO.
This commit:
* Adds the ability to lock an extent in the state tree and also set
other bits. The idea is to do locking and delalloc in one call
* Removes the EXTENT_WRITEBACK and EXTENT_DIRTY bits. Btrfs is using
a combination of the page bits and the ordered write code for this
instead.

As the extent state tree is manipulated, there are call backs
that are used to take extra actions when different state bits are set
or cleared. One example of this is a counter for the total number
of delayed allocation bytes in a single inode and in the whole FS.
When new states are inserted, this callback is being done before we
properly setup the new state. This hasn't caused problems before
because the lock bit was always done first, and the existing call backs
don't care about the lock bit.
This patch makes sure the state is properly setup before using the
callback, which is important for later optimizations that do more work
without using the lock bit.

There are two main users of the extent_map tree. The
first is regular file inodes, where it is evenly spread
between readers and writers.
The second is the chunk allocation tree, which maps blocks from
logical addresses to phyiscal ones, and it is 99.99% reads.
The mapping tree is a point of lock contention during heavy IO
workloads, so this commit switches things to a rw lock.

The btrfs io submission thread tries to back off congested devices in
favor of rotating off to another disk.
But, it tries to make sure it submits at least some IO before rotating
on (the others may be congested too), and so it has a magic number of
requests it tries to write before it hops.
This makes the magic number smaller. Testing shows that we're spending
too much time on congested devices and leaving the other devices idle.

When btrfs fills a large delayed allocation extent, it is a good idea

The btrfs worker thread spinlock was being used both for the
queueing of IO and for the processing of ordered events.
The ordered events never happen from end_io handlers, and so they
don't need to use the _irq version of spinlocks. This adds a
dedicated lock to the ordered lists so they don't have to run
with irqs off.

The Btrfs set_extent_bit call currently searches the rbtree
every time it needs to find more extent_state objects to fill
the requested operation.
This adds a simple test with rb_next to see if the next object
in the tree was adjacent to the one we just found. If so,
we skip the search and just use the next object.

The Btrfs worker threads don't currently die off after they have
been idle for a while, leading to a lot of threads sitting around
doing nothing for each mount.
Also, they are unable to start atomically (from end_io hanlders).
This commit reworks the worker threads so they can be started
from end_io handlers (just setting a flag that asks for a thread
to be added at a later date) and so they can exit if they
have been idle for a long time.

In ext2_rename(), dir_page is acquired through ext2_dotdot(). It is

Failing that, the pkmap reference count is never decremented and the
page remains pinned forever. Repeat that a couple times with highmem
pages and all pkmap slots get exhausted, and every further kmap() calls
end up stalling on the pkmap_map_wait queue at which point the whole

"mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with exec"
04b836cbf19e885f8366bccb2e4b0474346c02d
commit in 2.6.31.
But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls
tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC.
The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex. Even if we
remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(),
another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the
tracee resumes.
With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and
we do not hold it throughout, instead:
- introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex
and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred.
- install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(),
and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop().
or, if exec fails,
free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which
indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

Before the rewrite copy_event_to_user always wrote a terqminating '\0'

event_size. Ouch!
So add one byte to name_size before we round up and use clear_user to
set userspace to zero like /dev/zero does instead of copying the
strange nul_inotify_event. I can't quite convince myself len_to_zero

2.6.30's commit 8a0bdec194 removed
user_shm_lock() calls in hugetlb_file_setup() but left the
user_shm_unlock call in shm_destroy().
In detail:
Assume that can_do_hugetlb_shm() returns true and hence user_shm_lock()
is not called in hugetlb_file_setup(). However, user_shm_unlock() is
called in any case in shm_destroy() and in the following
atomic_dec_and_lock(&up->__count) in free_uid() is executed and if
up->__count gets zero, also cleanup_user_struct() is scheduled.
Note that sched_destroy_user() is empty if CONFIG_USER_SCHED is not set.
However, the ref counter up->__count gets unexpectedly non-positive and
the corresponding structs are freed even though there are live
references to them, resulting in a kernel oops after a lots of
shmget(SHM_HUGETLB)/shmctl(IPC_RMID) cycles and CONFIG_USER_SCHED set.
Hugh changed Stefan's suggested patch: can_do_hugetlb_shm() at the
time of shm_destroy() may give a different answer from at the time
of hugetlb_file_setup(). And fixed newseg()'s no_id error path,
which has missed user_shm_unlock() ever since it came in 2.6.9.

This patch makes the error message about changing journaling mode on remount
more descriptive. Some people are going to hit this error now due to commit
bbae8bcc49 if they configure a kernel to default
to data=writeback mode. The problem happens if they have data=ordered set for
the root filesystem in /etc/fstab but not in the kernel command line (and they
don't use initrd). Their filesystem then gets mounted as data=writeback by
kernel but then their boot fails because init scripts won't be able to remount
the filesystem rw. Better error message will hopefully make it easier for them
to find the error in their setup and bother us less with error reports :).

The old description for this configuration option was perhaps not
completely balanced in terms of describing the tradeoffs of using a
default of data=writeback vs. data=ordered. Despite the fact that old
description very strongly recomended disabling this feature, all of
the major distributions have elected to preserve the existing 'legacy'
default, which is a strong hint that it perhaps wasn't telling the
whole story.
This revised description has been vetted by a number of ext3
developers as being better at informing the user about the tradeoffs
of enabling or disabling this configuration feature.
