83668e7141 ext4: fix potential race when freeing ext4_io_page structures
Use an atomic_t and make sure we don't free the structure while we
might still be submitting I/O for that page.

f7ad6d2e92 ext4: handle writeback of inodes which are being freed
The following BUG can occur when an inode which is getting freed when
it still has dirty pages outstanding, and it gets deleted (in this
because it was the target of a rename).  In ordered mode, we need to
make sure the data pages are written just in case we crash before the
rename (or unlink) is committed.  If the inode is being freed then
when we try to igrab the inode, we end up tripping the BUG_ON at
fs/ext4/page-io.c:146.

To solve this problem, we need to keep track of the number of io
callbacks which are pending, and avoid destroying the inode until they
have all been completed.  That way we don't have to bump the inode
count to keep the inode from being destroyed; an approach which
doesn't work because the count could have already been dropped down to
zero before the inode writeback has started (at which point we're not
allowed to bump the count back up to 1, since it's already started
getting freed).

Thanks to Dave Chinner for suggesting this approach, which is also
used by XFS.

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.

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
+============+===============================+===============================+
| \ File flag|                               |                               |
|      \     |     !EXT4_EXTENTS_FL          |        EXT4_EXTETNS_FL        |
|case       \|                               |                               |

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

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.

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.

commit 3d0518f4, "ext4: New rec_len encoding for very

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:

a0375156ca ext4: Clean up s_dirt handling
We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
is enabled.  In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted.  As a
result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
journal or by setting s_dirt.  There are a few exceptions, most
notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.

This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
with a journal.

24676da469 ext4: Convert calls of ext4_error() to EXT4_ERROR_INODE()
EXT4_ERROR_INODE() tends to provide better error information and in a
more consistent format.  Some errors were not even identifying the inode
or directory which was corrupted, which made them not very useful.

e35fd6609b ext4: Add new abstraction ext4_map_blocks() underneath ext4_get_blocks()
Jack up ext4_get_blocks() and add a new function, ext4_map_blocks()
which uses a much smaller structure, struct ext4_map_blocks which is
20 bytes, as opposed to a struct buffer_head, which nearly 5 times
bigger on an x86_64 machine.  By switching things to use
ext4_map_blocks(), we can save stack space by using ext4_map_blocks()
since we can avoid allocating a struct buffer_head on the stack.

8a57d9d61a ext4: check for a good block group before loading buddy pages
This adds a new field in ext4_group_info to cache the largest available
block range in a block group; and don't load the buddy pages until *after*
we've done a sanity check on the block group.

With large allocation requests (e.g., fallocate(), 8MiB) and relatively full
partitions, it's easy to have no block groups with a block extent large
enough to satisfy the input request length.  This currently causes the loop
during cr == 0 in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() to load the buddy bitmap pages
for EVERY block group.  That can be a lot of pages.  The patch below allows
us to call ext4_mb_good_group() BEFORE we load the buddy pages (although we
have check again after we lock the block group).

a9185b41a4 pass writeback_control to ->write_inode
This gives the filesystem more information about the writeback that
is happening.  Trond requested this for the NFS unstable write handling,
and other filesystems might benefit from this too by beeing able to
distinguish between the different callers in more detail.

731eb1a03a ext4: consolidate in_range() definitions
There are duplicate macro definitions of in_range() in mballoc.h and
balloc.c.  This consolidates these two definitions into ext4.h, and
changes extents.c to use in_range() as well.

Convert a bunch of BUG_ONs to emit a ext4_error() message and return
EIO.  This is a first pass and most notably does _not_ cover
mballoc.c, which is a morass of void functions.

744692dc05 ext4: use ext4_get_block_write in buffer write
Allocate uninitialized extent before ext4 buffer write and
convert the extent to initialized after io completes.
The purpose is to make sure an extent can only be marked
initialized after it has been written with new data so
we can safely drop the i_mutex lock in ext4 DIO read without
exposing stale data. This helps to improve multi-thread DIO
read performance on high-speed disks.

Skip the nobh and data=journal mount cases to make things simple for now.

c7064ef13b ext4: mechanical rename some of the direct I/O get_block's identifiers
This commit renames some of the direct I/O's block allocation flags,
variables, and functions introduced in Mingming's "Direct IO for holes
and fallocate" patches so that they can be used by ext4's buffered
write path as well.  Also changed the related function comments
accordingly to cover both direct write and buffered write cases.

c8d46e41bc ext4: Add flag to files with blocks intentionally past EOF
fallocate() may potentially instantiate blocks past EOF, depending
on the flags used when it is called.

e2fsck currently has a test for blocks past i_size, and it
sometimes trips up - noticeably on xfstests 013 which runs fsstress.

This patch from Jiayang does fix it up - it (along with
e2fsprogs updates and other patches recently from Aneesh) has
survived many fsstress runs in a row.

12062dddda ext4: move __func__ into a macro for ext4_warning, ext4_error
Just a pet peeve of mine; we had a mishash of calls with either __func__
or "function_name" and the latter tends to get out of sync.

I think it's easier to just hide the __func__ in a macro, and it'll
be consistent from then on.
