The only issue so far is that we could change the flp pointer even on an

the flp assignment after the fl_change invocation, as the callers don't
care about the flp return value if the setlease call failed.

The NFSv4 server was initializing the dp->dl_flock pointer by the
somewhat ridiculous method of a locks_copy_lock callback.
Now that setlease uses the passed-in lock instead of doing a copy,
dl_flock no longer gets set, resulting in the lock leaking on delegation
release, and later possible hangs (among other problems).
So, initialize dl_flock and get rid of the callback.

START_SYNC will start a sync/commit, but not wait for it to
complete. Any modification started after the ioctl returns is
guaranteed not to be included in the commit. If a non-NULL
pointer is passed, the transaction id will be returned to
userspace.
WAIT_SYNC will wait for any in-progress commit to complete. If a
transaction id is specified, the ioctl will block and then
return (success) when the specified transaction has committed.
If it has already committed when we call the ioctl, it returns
immediately. If the specified transaction doesn't exist, it
returns EINVAL.
If no transaction id is specified, WAIT_SYNC will wait for the
currently committing transaction to finish it's commit to disk.
If there is no currently committing transaction, it returns
success.
These ioctls are useful for applications which want to impose an
ordering on when fs modifications reach disk, but do not want to
wait for the full (slow) commit process to do so.
Picky callers can take the transid returned by START_SYNC and
feed it to WAIT_SYNC, and be certain to wait only as long as
necessary for the transaction _they_ started to reach disk.
Sloppy callers can START_SYNC and WAIT_SYNC without a transid,
and provided they didn't wait too long between the calls, they
will get the same result. However, if a second commit starts
before they call WAIT_SYNC, they may end up waiting longer for
it to commit as well. Even so, a START_SYNC+WAIT_SYNC still
guarantees that any operation completed before the START_SYNC
reaches disk.

Add support for an async transaction commit that is ordered such that any

wait until the current commit is fully on disk. This avoids much of the
latency associated with the btrfs_commit_transaction for callers concerned
with serialization and not safety.
The wait_for_unblock flag controls whether we wait for the 'middle' portion
of commit_transaction to complete, which is necessary if the caller expects
some of the modifications contained in the commit to be available (this is
the case for subvol/snapshot creation).

btrfs_end_transaction()) to decrement num_writers such that we wait
forever instead of for 1.

resulting in unencrypted writes to the lower file.
However, this is only a potential problem in filesystems (FUSE, NFS,

Ecryptfs is a stackable filesystem which relies on lower filesystems the
ability of setting/getting extended attributes.
If there is a security module enabled on the system it updates the
'security' field of inodes according to the owned extended attribute set
with the function vfs_setxattr(). When this function is performed on a
ecryptfs filesystem the 'security' field is not updated for the lower
filesystem since the call security_inode_post_setxattr() is missing for
the lower inode.
Further, the call security_inode_setxattr() is missing for the lower inode,
leading to policy violations in the security module because specific
checks for this hook are not performed (i. e. filesystem
'associate' permission on SELinux is not checked for the lower filesystem).
This patch replaces the call of the setxattr() method of the lower inode
in the function ecryptfs_setxattr() with vfs_setxattr().

We have a fairly complex set of loops around walking our list of
delalloc inodes when we find metadata delalloc space running low.
It doesn't work very well, can use large amounts of CPU and doesn't
do very efficient writeback.
This switches us to kick the bdi flusher threads instead. All dirty
data in btrfs is accounted as delalloc data, so this is very similar
in terms of what it writes, but we're able to just kick off the IO
and wait for progress.

An earlier commit tried to keep us from allocating too many
empty metadata chunks. It was somewhat too restrictive and could
lead to ENOSPC errors on empty filesystems.
This increases the limits to about 5% of the FS size, allowing more
metadata chunks to be preallocated.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
When btrfs is running low on metadata space, it needs to force delayed
allocation pages to disk. It currently does this with a suboptimal walk
of a private list of inodes with delayed allocation, and it would be
much better if we used the generic flusher threads.
writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle would be ideal, but it waits for the flusher
thread to start IO on all the dirty pages in the FS before it returns.
This adds variants of writeback_inodes_sb* that allow the caller to
control how many pages get sent down.
