6072d13c42 Call the filesystem back whenever a page is removed from the page cache
NFS needs to be able to release objects that are stored in the page
cache once the page itself is no longer visible from the page cache.

This patch adds a callback to the address space operations that allows
filesystems to perform page cleanups once the page has been removed
from the page cache.

3a3a1af37f include/linux/fs.h: fix userspace build
dpkg uses fiemap but didn't particularly need to include stdint.h so far.
Since 367a51a339 ("fs: Add FITRIM ioctl"), build of linux/fs.h failed in
dpkg with:

  In file included from ../../src/filesdb.c:27:0:
  /usr/include/linux/fs.h:37:2: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'uint64_t'

Use exportable type __u64 to avoid the dependency on stdint.h.

b31d42a5af ("Fix compile brekage with !CONFIG_BLOCK") fixed only the
kernel build by including linux/types.h, but this also fixed "make
headers_check", so don't revert it.

93bb41f4f8 fs: Do not dispatch FITRIM through separate super_operation
There was concern that FITRIM ioctl is not common enough to be included
in core vfs ioctl, as Christoph Hellwig pointed out there's no real point
in dispatching this out to a separate vector instead of just through
->ioctl.

So this commit removes ioctl_fstrim() from vfs ioctl and trim_fs
from super_operation structure.

435f49a518 readv/writev: do the same MAX_RW_COUNT truncation that read/write does
We used to protect against overflow, but rather than return an error, do
what read/write does, namely to limit the total size to MAX_RW_COUNT.
This is not only more consistent, but it also means that any broken
low-level read/write routine that still keeps counts in 'int' can't
break.

b31d42a5af Fix compile brekage with !CONFIG_BLOCK
Today's git tree fails to build on !CONFIG_BLOCK, due to upstream commit

 include/linux/fs.h:36: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘uint64_t’
 include/linux/fs.h:36: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘uint64_t’

The commit adds uint64_t type usage to fs.h, but linux/types.h is not included
explicitly - it's only included implicitly via linux/blk_types.h, and there only if
CONFIG_BLOCK is enabled.

Add the explicit #include to fix this.

367a51a339 fs: Add FITRIM ioctl
Adds an filesystem independent ioctl to allow implementation of file
system batched discard support. I takes fstrim_range structure as an
argument. fstrim_range is definec in the include/fs.h and its
definition is as follows.

struct fstrim_range {
	start;
	len;
	minlen;
}

start	- first Byte to trim
len	- number of Bytes to trim from start
minlen	- minimum extent length to trim, free extents shorter than this
	  number of Bytes will be ignored. This will be rounded up to fs
	  block size.

It is also possible to specify NULL as an argument. In this case the
arguments will set itself as follows:

start = 0;
len = ULLONG_MAX;
minlen = 0;

So it will trim the whole file system at one run.

After the FITRIM is done, the number of actually discarded Bytes is stored
in fstrim_range.len to give the user better insight on how much storage
space has been really released for wear-leveling.

f7347ce4ee fasync: re-organize fasync entry insertion to allow it under a spinlock
You currently cannot use "fasync_helper()" in an atomic environment to
insert a new fasync entry, because it will need to allocate the new
"struct fasync_struct".

Yet fcntl_setlease() wants to call this under lock_flocks(), which is in
the process of being converted from the BKL to a spinlock.

In order to fix this, this abstracts out the actual fasync list
insertion and the fasync allocations into functions of their own, and
teaches fs/locks.c to pre-allocate the fasync_struct entry.  That way
the actual list insertion can happen while holding the required
spinlock.

518de9b39e fs: allow for more than 2^31 files
Robin Holt tried to boot a 16TB system and found af_unix was overflowing
a 32bit value :

<quote>

We were seeing a failure which prevented boot.  The kernel was incapable
of creating either a named pipe or unix domain socket.  This comes down
to a common kernel function called unix_create1() which does:

        atomic_inc(&unix_nr_socks);
        if (atomic_read(&unix_nr_socks) > 2 * get_max_files())
                goto out;

The function get_max_files() is a simple return of files_stat.max_files.
files_stat.max_files is a signed integer and is computed in
fs/file_table.c's files_init().

        n = (mempages * (PAGE_SIZE / 1024)) / 10;
        files_stat.max_files = n;

In our case, mempages (total_ram_pages) is approx 3,758,096,384
(0xe0000000).  That leaves max_files at approximately 1,503,238,553.
This causes 2 * get_max_files() to integer overflow.

</quote>

Fix is to let /proc/sys/fs/file-nr & /proc/sys/fs/file-max use long
integers, and change af_unix to use an atomic_long_t instead of atomic_t.

get_max_files() is changed to return an unsigned long.  get_nr_files() is
changed to return a long.

unix_nr_socks is changed from atomic_t to atomic_long_t, while not
strictly needed to address Robin problem.

a178d2027d IMA: move read counter into struct inode
IMA currently allocated an inode integrity structure for every inode in
core.  This stucture is about 120 bytes long.  Most files however
(especially on a system which doesn't make use of IMA) will never need
any of this space.  The problem is that if IMA is enabled we need to
know information about the number of readers and the number of writers
for every inode on the box.  At the moment we collect that information
in the per inode iint structure and waste the rest of the space.  This
patch moves those counters into the struct inode so we can eventually
stop allocating an IMA integrity structure except when absolutely
needed.

This patch does the minimum needed to move the location of the data.
Further cleanups, especially the location of counter updates, may still
be possible.

7ccf19a804 fs: inode split IO and LRU lists
The use of the same inode list structure (inode->i_list) for two
different list constructs with different lifecycles and purposes
makes it impossible to separate the locking of the different

the writeback and reclaim lists, split the inode->i_list into two
separate lists dedicated to their specific tracking functions.

9e38d86ff2 fs: Implement lazy LRU updates for inodes
Convert the inode LRU to use lazy updates to reduce lock and
cacheline traffic.  We avoid moving inodes around in the LRU list
during iget/iput operations so these frequent operations don't need
to access the LRUs. Instead, we defer the refcount checks to
reclaim-time and use a per-inode state flag, I_REFERENCED, to tell
reclaim that iget has touched the inode in the past. This means that
only reclaim should be touching the LRU with any frequency, hence
significantly reducing lock acquisitions and the amount contention
on LRU updates.

This also removes the inode_in_use list, which means we now only
have one list for tracking the inode LRU status. This makes it much
simpler to split out the LRU list operations under it's own lock.

cffbc8aa33 fs: Convert nr_inodes and nr_unused to per-cpu counters
The number of inodes allocated does not need to be tied to the
addition or removal of an inode to/from a list. If we are not tied
to a list lock, we could update the counters when inodes are
initialised or destroyed, but to do that we need to convert the
counters to be per-cpu (i.e. independent of a lock). This means that
we have the freedom to change the list/locking implementation
without needing to care about the counters.

c37650161a fs: add sync_inode_metadata
Add a new helper to write out the inode using the writeback code,
that is including the correct dirty bit and list manipulation.  A few
of filesystems already opencode this, and a lot of others should be
using it instead of using write_inode_now which also writes out the
data.

However, a simple initialization of "bytes" variable with 0 will fix it.

b89f432133 fs/locks.c: prepare for BKL removal
This prepares the removal of the big kernel lock from the
file locking code. We still use the BKL as long as fs/lockd
uses it and ceph might sleep, but we can flip the definition
to a private spinlock as soon as that's done.
All users outside of fs/lockd get converted to use
lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel() where appropriate.

Based on an earlier patch to use a spinlock from Matthew
Wilcox, who has attempted this a few times before, the
earliest patch from over 10 years ago turned it into
a semaphore, which ended up being slower than the BKL
and was subsequently reverted.

Someone should do some serious performance testing when
this becomes a spinlock, since this has caused problems
before. Using a spinlock should be at least as good
as the BKL in theory, but who knows...

8b15575cae fs: {lock,unlock}_flocks() stubs to prepare for BKL removal
The lock structs are currently protected by the BKL, but are accessed by
code in fs/locks.c and misc file system and DLM code.  These stubs will
allow all users to switch to the new interface before the implementation
is changed to a spinlock.

30ca22c70e ext3/ext4: Factor out disk addressability check
As part of adding support for OCFS2 to mount huge volumes, we need to
check that the sector_t and page cache of the system are capable of
addressing the entire volume.

An identical check already appears in ext3 and ext4.  This patch moves
the addressability check into its own function in fs/libfs.c and
modifies ext3 and ext4 to invoke it.
