7f93cff90f ext4: fix kernel oops if the journal superblock has a non-zero j_errno
Commit 84061e0 fixed an accounting bug only to introduce the
possibility of a kernel OOPS if the journal has a non-zero j_errno
field indicating that the file system had detected a fs inconsistency.
After the journal replay, if the journal superblock indicates that the
file system has an error, this indication is transfered to the file
system and then ext4_commit_super() is called to write this to the
disk.

But since the percpu counters are now initialized after the journal
replay, the call to ext4_commit_super() will cause a kernel oops since
it needs to use the percpu counters the ext4 superblock structure.

The fix is to skip setting the ext4 free block and free inode fields
if the percpu counter has not been set.

Thanks to Ken Sumrall for reporting and analyzing the root causes of
this bug.

72f84e6560 ext4: update writeback_index based on last page scanned
As pointed out in a prior patch, updating the mapping's
writeback_index based on pages written isn't quite right;
what the writeback index is really supposed to reflect is
the next page which should be scanned for writeback during
periodic flush.

As in write_cache_pages(), write_cache_pages_da() does
this scanning for us as we assemble the mpd for later
writeout.  If we keep track of the next page after the
current scan, we can easily update writeback_index without
worrying about pages written vs. pages skipped, etc.

Without this, an fsync will reset writeback_index to
0 (its starting index) + however many pages it wrote, which
can mess up the progress of periodic flush.

5b41d92437 ext4: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging
This is analogous to Jan Kara's commit,
f446daaea9
mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging

but since we forked write_cache_pages, we need to reimplement
it there (and in ext4_da_writepages, since range_cyclic handling
was moved to there)

If you start a large buffered IO to a file, and then set
fsync after it, you'll find that fsync does not complete
until the other IO stops.

If you continue re-dirtying the file (say, putting dd
with conv=notrunc in a loop), when fsync finally completes
(after all IO is done), it reports via tracing that
it has written many more pages than the file contains;
in other words it has synced and re-synced pages in
the file multiple times.

This then leads to problems with our writeback_index
update, since it advances it by pages written, and
essentially sets writeback_index off the end of the
file...

With the following patch, we only sync as much as was
dirty at the time of the sync.

bbd08344e3 ext4: tidy up a void argument in inode.c
This doesn't fix anything at all, it just removes a vestige
of prior use from __mpage_da_writepage()

7360d1731e ext4: Add batched discard support for ext4
Walk through allocation groups and trim all free extents. It can be
invoked through FITRIM ioctl on the file system. The main idea is to
provide a way to trim the whole file system if needed, since some SSD's
may suffer from performance loss after the whole device was filled (it
does not mean that fs is full!).

It search for free extents in allocation groups specified by Byte range
start -> start+len. When the free extent is within this range, blocks
are marked as used and then trimmed. Afterwards these blocks are marked
as free in per-group bitmap.

Since fstrim is a long operation it is good to have an ability to
interrupt it by a signal. This was added by Dmitry Monakhov.
Thanks Dimitry.

possible to dereference an uninitialized memory pointer in

We avoid this by moving the special case from ext4_dx_find_entry() to
ext4_find_entry(); this also means we can optimize ext4_find_entry()
slightly when NFS looks up "..".

c999af2b34 ext4: queue conversion after adding to inode's completed IO list
By queuing the io end on the unwritten workqueue before adding it
to our inode's list of completed IOs, I think we run the risk
of the work getting completed, and the IO freed, before we try
to add it to the inode's i_completed_io_list.

It should be safe to add it to the inode's list of completed
IOs, and -then- queue it for completion, I think.

3e1e5f5016 ext4: don't use ext4_allocation_contexts for tracing
Many tracepoints were populating an ext4_allocation_context
to pass in, but this requires a slab allocation even when
tracepoints are off.  In fact, 4 of 5 of these allocations
were only for tracing.  In addition, we were only using a
small fraction of the 144 bytes of this structure for this
purpose.

We can do away with all these alloc/frees of the ac and
simply pass in the bits we care about, instead.

I tested this by turning on tracing and running through
xfstests on x86_64.  I did not actually do anything with
the trace output, however.

0c9169ccad ext4: fix potential infinite loop in ext4_da_writepages()
On linux-2.6.36-rc2, if we execute the following script, we can hang
the system when the /bin/sync command is executed:

========================================================================
#!/bin/sh

echo -n "HANG UP TEST: "
/bin/dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/img bs=1k count=1 seek=1M 2> /dev/null

      => wb_writeback()

                                +-------------+
======================================================================

The reason why this hangup happens is described as follows:
1) We write the last extent block of the file whose size is the filesystem 
   maximum size.
2) "BH_Delay" flag is set on the buffer_head of its block.
3) - the member, "m_lblk" of struct mpage_da_data is 4294967295 (UINT_MAX)
   - the member, "m_len" of struct mpage_da_data is 1
  mpage_put_bnr_to_bhs() which is called via ext4_da_writepages()
  cannot clear "BH_Delay" flag of the buffer_head because the type of
  m_lblk is ext4_lblk_t and then m_lblk + m_len is overflow.

  Therefore an infinite loop occurs because ext4_da_writepages()
  cannot write the page (which corresponds to the block) since
  "BH_Delay" flag isn't cleared.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
static void mpage_put_bnr_to_bhs(struct mpage_da_data *mpd,
				struct ext4_map_blocks *map)
{
...
	int blocks = map->m_len;
...
		do {
			// cur_logical = 4294967295
			// map->m_lblk = 4294967295
			// blocks = 1
			// *** map->m_lblk + blocks == 0 (OVERFLOW!) ***
			// (cur_logical >= map->m_lblk + blocks) => true
			if (cur_logical >= map->m_lblk + blocks)
				break;
----------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: Mounting with the nodelalloc option will avoid this codepath,
and thus, avoid this hang

e0d10bfa91 ext4: improve llseek error handling for overly large seek offsets
The llseek system call should return EINVAL if passed a seek offset
which results in a write error.  What this maximum offset should be
depends on whether or not the huge_file file system feature is set,
and whether or not the file is extent based or not.


If the file has no "EXT4_EXTENTS_FL" flag, the maximum size which can be 
written (write systemcall) is different from the maximum size which can be 
sought (lseek systemcall).

For example, the following 2 cases demonstrates the differences
between the maximum size which can be written, versus the seek offset
allowed by the llseek system call:

#1: mkfs.ext3 <dev>; mount -t ext4 <dev>
#2: mkfs.ext3 <dev>; tune2fs -Oextent,huge_file <dev>; mount -t ext4 <dev>

Table. the max file size which we can write or seek
       at each filesystem feature tuning and file flag setting

+------------+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+

The differences exist because ext4 has 2 maxbytes which are sb->s_maxbytes
(= extent-mapped maxbytes) and EXT4_SB(sb)->s_bitmap_maxbytes (= block-mapped 
maxbytes).  Although generic_file_llseek uses only extent-mapped maxbytes.
(llseek of ext4_file_operations is generic_file_llseek which uses
sb->s_maxbytes.)

Therefore we create ext4 llseek function which uses 2 maxbytes.

The new own function originates from generic_file_llseek().
If the file flag, "EXT4_EXTENTS_FL" is not set, the function alters 
inode->i_sb->s_maxbytes into EXT4_SB(inode->i_sb)->s_bitmap_maxbytes.

bfff68738f ext4: add support for lazy inode table initialization
When the lazy_itable_init extended option is passed to mke2fs, it
considerably speeds up filesystem creation because inode tables are
not zeroed out.  The fact that parts of the inode table are
uninitialized is not a problem so long as the block group descriptors,
which contain information regarding how much of the inode table has
been initialized, has not been corrupted However, if the block group
checksums are not valid, e2fsck must scan the entire inode table, and
the the old, uninitialized data could potentially cause e2fsck to
report false problems.

Hence, it is important for the inode tables to be initialized as soon
as possble.  This commit adds this feature so that mke2fs can safely
use the lazy inode table initialization feature to speed up formatting
file systems.

This is done via a new new kernel thread called ext4lazyinit, which is
created on demand and destroyed, when it is no longer needed.  There
is only one thread for all ext4 filesystems in the system. When the
first filesystem with inititable mount option is mounted, ext4lazyinit
thread is created, then the filesystem can register its request in the
request list.

This thread then walks through the list of requests picking up
scheduled requests and invoking ext4_init_inode_table(). Next schedule
time for the request is computed by multiplying the time it took to
zero out last inode table with wait multiplier, which can be set with
the (init_itable=n) mount option (default is 10).  We are doing
this so we do not take the whole I/O bandwidth. When the thread is no
longer necessary (request list is empty) it frees the appropriate
structures and exits (and can be created later later by another
filesystem).

We do not disturb regular inode allocations in any way, it just do not
care whether the inode table is, or is not zeroed. But when zeroing, we
have to skip used inodes, obviously. Also we should prevent new inode
allocations from the group, while zeroing is on the way. For that we
take write alloc_sem lock in ext4_init_inode_table() and read alloc_sem
in the ext4_claim_inode, so when we are unlucky and allocator hits the
group which is currently being zeroed, it just has to wait.

This can be suppresed using the mount option no_init_itable.

b443e7339a ext4: don't bump up LONG_MAX nr_to_write by a factor of 8
I'm uneasy with lots of stuff going on in ext4_da_writepages(),
but bumping nr_to_write from LLONG_MAX to -8 clearly isn't
making anything better, so avoid the multiplier in that case.

659c6009ca ext4: stop looping in ext4_num_dirty_pages when max_pages reached
Today we simply break out of the inner loop when we have accumulated
max_pages; this keeps scanning forwad and doing pagevec_lookup_tag()
in the while (!done) loop, this does potentially a lot of work
with no net effect.

When we have accumulated max_pages, just clean up and return.

fb1813f4a8 ext4: use dedicated slab caches for group_info structures
ext4_group_info structures are currently allocated with kmalloc().
With a typical 4K block size, these are 136 bytes each -- meaning
they'll each consume a 256-byte slab object.  On a system with many
ext4 large partitions, that's a lot of wasted kernel slab space.
(E.g., a single 1TB partition will have about 8000 block groups, using
about 2MB of slab, of which nearly 1MB is wasted.)

This patch creates an array of slab pointers created as needed --
depending on the superblock block size -- and uses these slabs to
allocate the group info objects.

58590b06d7 ext4: fix EOFBLOCKS_FL handling
It turns out we have several problems with how EOFBLOCKS_FL is
handled.  First of all, there was a fencepost error where we were not
clearing the EOFBLOCKS_FL when fill in the last uninitialized block,
but rather when we allocate the next block _after_ the uninitalized
block.  Secondly we were not testing to see if we needed to clear the
EOFBLOCKS_FL when writing to the file O_DIRECT or when were converting
an uninitialized block (which is the most common case).

2aec7c5232 mbcache: Remove unused features
The mbcache code was written to support a variable number of indexes,
but all the existing users use exactly one index.  Simplify to code to
support only that case.

There are also no users of the cache entry free operation, and none of
the users keep extra data in cache entries.  Remove those features as
well.

1025774ce4 remove inode_setattr
Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers.  This
moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it
can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence.

In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate
so it was left out in the opencoded variant:

 spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier
 btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier
 ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above

In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs,
which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.

6c7a120ac6 ext4: Adding error check after calling ext4_mb_regular_allocator()
If the bitmap block on disk is bad, ext4_mb_load_buddy() returns an
error. This error is returned to the caller,
ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and then to ext4_mb_new_blocks().  But
ext4_mb_new_blocks() did not check for the return value of
ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and would repeatedly try to load the
bitmap block. The fix simply catches the return value and exits out of
the 'repeat' loop after cleanup.

We also take the opportunity to clean up the error handling in
ext4_mb_new_blocks().

56d35a4cd1 ext4: Fix dirtying of journalled buffers in data=journal mode
In data=journal mode, we still use block_write_begin() to prepare
page for writing. This function can occasionally mark buffer dirty
which violates journalling assumptions - when a buffer is part of
a transaction, it should be dirty and a buffer can be already part
of a forget list of some transaction when block_write_begin()
gets called. This violation of journalling assumptions then results
in "JBD: Spotted dirty metadata buffer..." warnings.

In fact, temporary dirtying the buffer while the page is still locked
does not really cause problems to the journalling because we won't write
the buffer until the page gets unlocked. So we just have to make sure
to clear dirty bits before unlocking the page.

0cfc9255a1 ext4: re-inline ext4_rec_len_(to|from)_disk functions
commit 3d0518f4, "ext4: New rec_len encoding for very
large blocksizes" made several changes to this path, but from
a perf perspective, un-inlining ext4_rec_len_from_disk() seems
most significant.  This function is called from ext4_check_dir_entry(),
which on a file-creation workload is called extremely often.

I tested this with bonnie:

# bonnie++ -u root -s 0 -f -x 200 -d /mnt/test -n 32

(this does 200 iterations) and got this for the file creations:

ext4 stock:   Average =  21206.8 files/s
ext4 inlined: Average =  22346.7 files/s  (+5%)
