CONFIG_JBD2_DEBUG and jbd2_journal_enable_debug knobs were added in
update_t_max_wait(), since earlier it used to take a spinlock for
updating t_max_wait, which could cause a bottleneck while starting a
txn (start_this_handle()).
Since in previous patch, we have killed t_handle_lock completely, we
could get rid of this debug config and knob to let t_max_wait be
updated by default again.

This patch kills t_handle_lock transaction spinlock completely from
jbd2.
To explain the reasoning, currently there were three sites at which
this spinlock was used.
1. jbd2_journal_wait_updates()
a. Based on careful code review it can be seen that, we don't need this
lock here. This is since we wait for any currently ongoing updates
based on a atomic variable t_updates. And we anyway don't take any
t_handle_lock while in stop_this_handle().
i.e.
write_lock(&journal->j_state_lock()
jbd2_journal_wait_updates() stop_this_handle()
while (atomic_read(txn->t_updates) { |
DEFINE_WAIT(wait); |
prepare_to_wait(); |
if (atomic_read(txn->t_updates) if (atomic_dec_and_test(txn->t_updates))
write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);
schedule(); wake_up()
write_lock(&journal->j_state_lock);
finish_wait();
}
txn->t_state = T_COMMIT
write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);
b. Also note that between atomic_inc(&txn->t_updates) in
start_this_handle() and jbd2_journal_wait_updates(), the
synchronization happens via read_lock(journal->j_state_lock) in
start_this_handle();
2. jbd2_journal_extend()
a. jbd2_journal_extend() is called with the handle of each process from
task_struct. So no lock required in updating member fields of handle_t
b. For member fields of h_transaction, all updates happens only via
atomic APIs (which is also within read_lock()).
So, no need of this transaction spinlock.
3. update_t_max_wait()
Based on Jan suggestion, this can be carefully removed using atomic
cmpxchg API.
Note that there can be several processes which are waiting for a new
transaction to be allocated and started. For doing this only one
process will succeed in taking write_lock() and allocating a new txn.
After that all of the process will be updating the t_max_wait (max
transaction wait time). This can be done via below method w/o taking
any locks using atomic cmpxchg.
For more details refer [1]
new = get_new_val();
old = READ_ONCE(ptr->max_val);
while (old < new)
old = cmpxchg(&ptr->max_val, old, new);

JBD2 layer support triggers which are called when journaling layer moves
buffer to a certain state. We can use the frozen trigger, which gets
called when buffer data is frozen and about to be written out to the
journal, to compute block checksums for some buffer types (similarly as
does ocfs2). This avoids unnecessary repeated recomputation of the
checksum (at the cost of larger window where memory corruption won't be
caught by checksumming) and is even necessary when there are
unsynchronized updaters of the checksummed data.
So add superblock and journal trigger type arguments to
ext4_journal_get_write_access() and ext4_journal_get_create_access() so
that frozen triggers can be set accordingly. Also add inode argument to
ext4_walk_page_buffers() and all the callbacks used with that function
for the same purpose. This patch is mostly only a change of prototype of
the above mentioned functions and a few small helpers. Real checksumming
will come later.

The function jbd2_journal_unregister_shrinker() was getting called
twice when the file system was getting unmounted. On Power and ARM
platforms this was causing kernel crash when unmounting the file
system, when a percpu_counter was destroyed twice.
Fix this by removing jbd2_journal_[un]register_shrinker() functions,
and inlining the shrinker setup and teardown into
journal_init_common() and jbd2_journal_destroy(). This means that
ext4 and ocfs2 now no longer need to know about registering and
unregistering jbd2's shrinker.
Also, while we're at it, rename the percpu counter from
j_jh_shrink_count to j_checkpoint_jh_count, since this makes it
clearer what this counter is intended to track.

Current metadata buffer release logic in bdev_try_to_free_page() have
a lot of use-after-free issues when umount filesystem concurrently, and
it is difficult to fix directly because ext4 is the only user of
s_op->bdev_try_to_free_page callback and we may have to add more special
refcount or lock that is only used by ext4 into the common vfs layer,
which is unacceptable.
One better solution is remove the bdev_try_to_free_page callback, but
the real problem is we cannot easily release journal_head on the
checkpointed buffer, so try_to_free_buffers() cannot release buffers and
page under memory pressure, which is more likely to trigger
out-of-memory. So we cannot remove the callback directly before we find
another way to release journal_head.
This patch introduce a shrinker to free journal_head on the checkpointed
transaction. After the journal_head got freed, try_to_free_buffers()
could free buffer properly.

This patch removes jbd2_fc_init() API and its related functions to
simplify enabling fast commits. With this change, the number of fast
commit blocks to use is solely determined by the JBD2 layer. So, we
move the default value for minimum number of fast commit blocks from
ext4/fast_commit.h to include/linux/jbd2.h. However, whether or not to
use fast commits is determined by the file system. The file system
just sets the fast commit feature using
jbd2_journal_set_features(). JBD2 layer then determines how many
blocks to use for fast commits (based on the value found in the JBD2
superblock).
Note that the JBD2 feature flag of fast commits is just an indication
that there are fast commit blocks present on disk. It doesn't tell
JBD2 layer about the intent of the file system of whether to it wants
to use fast commit or not. That's why, we blindly clear the fast
commit flag in journal_reset() after the recovery is done.
