Typical cputime stats infrastructure relies on the timer tick and
its periodic polling on the CPU to account the amount of time
spent by the CPUs and the tasks per high level domains such as
userspace, kernelspace, guest, ...
Now we are preparing to implement full dynticks capability on
Linux for Real Time and HPC users who want full CPU isolation.
This feature requires a cputime accounting that doesn't depend
on the timer tick.
To implement it, this new cputime infrastructure plugs into
kernel/user/guest boundaries to take snapshots of cputime and
flush these to the stats when needed. This performs pretty
much like CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING except that context location
and cputime snaphots are synchronized between write and read
side such that the latter can safely retrieve the pending tickless
cputime of a task and add it to its latest cputime snapshot to
return the correct result to the user.

If some small bios of dirty node pages are supposed to be issued during the
sequential data writes, there-in well-produced consecutive data bios are able
to be split by the small node bios, resulting in performance degradation.
So, let's collect a number of dirty node pages until reaching a threshold.
And, by default, I set the threshold as 2MB, a segment size.
This improves sequential write performance on i5, 512GB SSD (830 w/ SATA2) as
follows.

XFS: Assertion failed: (char *)dup - (char *)hdr == be16_to_cpu(*xfs_dir2_data_unused_tag_p(dup)), file: fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_data.c, line: 828
Upon further digging, the tag found by xfs_dir2_data_unused_tag_p(dup)
contained "2" and not the proper offset, and I found that this value was
changed after the memmoves under "Use a stale leaf for our new entry."
in xfs_dir2_block_addname(), i.e.
memmove(&blp[mid + 1], &blp[mid],
(highstale - mid) * sizeof(*blp));
overwrote it.
What has happened is that the previous call to xfs_dir2_block_compact()
has rearranged things; it changes btp->count as well as the
blp array. So after we make that call, we must recalculate the
proper pointer to the leaf entries by making another call to
xfs_dir2_block_leaf_p().
Dave provided a metadump image which led to a simple reproducer
(create a particular filename in the affected directory) and this
resolves the testcase as well as the bug on his live system.

Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>
Let's consider the usage of blk_plug in f2fs_write_data_pages().
We can come up with the two issues: lock contention and task awareness.
1. Merging bios prior to grabing "queue lock"
The f2fs merges consecutive IOs in the file system level before
submitting any bios, which is similar with the back merge by the
plugging mechanism in attempt_plug_merge(). Both of them need to acquire
no queue lock.
2. Merging policy with respect to tasks
The f2fs merges IOs as much as possible regardless of tasks, while
blk-plugging is conducted on a basis of tasks. As we can understand
there are trade-offs, f2fs tries to maximize the write performance with
well-merged bios.
As a result, if f2fs produces many consecutive but separated bios in
writepages(), it would be good to use blk-plugging since f2fs would be
able to avoid queue lock contention in the block layer by merging them.
But, f2fs merges IOs and submit one bio, which means that there are not
much chances to merge bios by attempt_plug_merge().
However, f2fs has already been used blk_plug by triggering generic_writepages()
in f2fs_write_data_pages().
So to make the overall code consistency, I'd like to remove blk_plug there.

Andrew Morton pointed this out a month ago, and then I completely forgot
about it.
If we read a partial last page of a block device, we will zero out the
end of the page, but since that page can then be mapped into user space,
we should also make sure to flush the cache on architectures that have
virtual caches. We have the flush_dcache_page() function for this, so
use it.
Now, in practice this really never matters, because nobody sane uses
virtual caches to begin with, and they largely exist on old broken RISC
arhitectures.
And even if you did run on one of those obsolete CPU's, the whole "mmap
and access the last partial page of a block device" behavior probably
doesn't actually exist. The normal IO functions (read/write) will never
see the zeroed-out part of the page that migth not be coherent in the
cache, because they honor the size of the device.
So I'm marking this for stable (3.7 only), but I'm not sure anybody will
ever care.

Since, f2fs supports only 4KB blocksize, which is set at the beginning in
f2fs_fill_super. So, we do not need to again check this blocksize setting
in such case.

The tricky problem is this check:
if (i++ >= max)
icc (mis)optimizes this check as:
if (++i > max)
The check now becomes a no-op since max is MAX_ARG_STRINGS (0x7FFFFFFF).
This is "allowed" by the C standard, assuming i++ never overflows,
because signed integer overflow is undefined behavior. This
optimization effectively reverts the previous commit 362e6663ef
("exec.c, compat.c: fix count(), compat_count() bounds checking") that
tries to fix the check.
This patch simply moves ++ after the check.

The f2fs_fallocate() has two operations: punch_hole and expand_size.
Only in the case of punch_hole, dirty node pages can be produced, so let's
trigger f2fs_balance_fs() in this case only.
Furthermore, let's trigger it at every data truncation routine.

The f2fs_balance_fs() is to check the number of free sections and decide whether
it needs to conduct cleaning or not. If there are not enough free sections, the
cleaning job should be started.
In order to control an amount of free sections even under high utilization, f2fs
should call f2fs_balance_fs at all the VFS interfaces that are able to produce
dirty pages.
This patch adds the function calls in the missing interfaces as follows.
1. f2fs_setxattr()
The f2fs_setxattr() produces dirty node pages so that we should call
f2fs_balance_fs() either likewise doing in other VFS interfaces such as
f2fs_lookup(), f2fs_mkdir(), and so on.
2. f2fs_sync_file()
We should guarantee serving free sections for syncing metadata during fsync.
Previously, there is no space check before triggering checkpoint and
sync_node_pages.
Therefore, if a bunch of fsync calls are triggered under 100% of FS utilization,
f2fs is able to be faced with no free sections, resulting in BUG_ON().
3. f2fs_sync_fs()
Before calling write_checkpoint(), we should guarantee that there are minimum
free sections.
4. f2fs_write_inode()
f2fs_write_inode() is also able to produce dirty node pages.

I'd like to revisit the f2fs_gc flow and rewrite as follows.
1. In practical, the nGC parameter of f2fs_gc is meaningless. So, let's
remove it.
2. Background GC marks victim blocks as dirty one at a time.
3. Foreground GC should do cleaning job until acquiring enough free
sections. Afterwards, it needs to do checkpoint.

commit 35f9c09fe9 (tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once)
added an internal flag : MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST meant to be set on all
frags but the last one for a splice() call.
The condition used to set the flag in pipe_to_sendpage() relied on
splice() user passing the exact number of bytes present in the pipe,
or a smaller one.
But some programs pass an arbitrary high value, and the test fails.
The effect of this bug is a lack of tcp_push() at the end of a
splice(pipe -> socket) call, and possibly very slow or erratic TCP
sessions.
We should both test sd->total_len and fact that another fragment
is in the pipe (pipe->nrbufs > 1)
Many thanks to Willy for providing very clear bug report, bisection
and test programs.

The following null pointer check is broken.
*option = match_strdup(args);
return !option;
The pointer `option' must be non-null, and thus `!option' is always false.
Use `!*option' instead.
