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.

fe2fd9ed5b exofs: Remove inode->i_count manipulation in exofs_new_inode
exofs_new_inode() was incrementing the inode->i_count and
decrementing it in create_done(), in a bad attempt to make sure
the inode will still be there when the asynchronous create_done()
finally arrives. This was very stupid because iput() was not called,
and if it was actually needed, it would leak the inode.

However all this is not needed, because at exofs_evict_inode()
we already wait for create_done() by waiting for the
object_created event. Therefore remove the superfluous ref counting
and just Thicken the comment at exofs_evict_inode() a bit.

While at it change places that open coded wait_obj_created()
to call the already available wrapper.

115e19c535 exofs: Set i_mapping->backing_dev_info anyway
Though it has been promised that inode->i_mapping->backing_dev_info
is not used and the supporting code is fine. Until the pointer
will default to NULL, I'd rather it points to the correct thing
regardless.

At least for future infrastructure coder it is a clear indication
of where are the key points that inodes are initialized.
I know because it took me time to find this out.

2f246fd0f1 exofs: New truncate sequence
These changes are crafted based on the similar
conversion done to ext2 by Nick Piggin.

* Remove the deprecated ->truncate vector. Let exofs_setattr
  take care of on-disk size updates.
* Call truncate_pagecache on the unused pages if
  write_begin/end fails.
* Cleanup exofs_delete_inode that did stupid inode
  writes and updates on an inode that will be
  removed.
* And finally get rid of exofs_get_block. We never
  had any blocks it was all for calling nobh_truncate_page.
  nobh_truncate_page is not actually needed in exofs since
  the last page is complete and gone, just like all the other
  pages. There is no partial blocks in exofs.

I've tested with this patch, and there are no apparent
failures, so far.

1025774ce4 remove inode_setattr
Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers.  This
moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it
can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence.

In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate
so it was left out in the opencoded variant:

 spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier
 btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier
 ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above

In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs,
which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.

7b6d91daee block: unify flags for struct bio and struct request
Remove the current bio flags and reuse the request flags for the bio, too.
This allows to more easily trace the type of I/O from the filesystem
down to the block driver.  There were two flags in the bio that were
missing in the requests:  BIO_RW_UNPLUG and BIO_RW_AHEAD.  Also I've
renamed two request flags that had a superflous RW in them.

Note that the flags are in bio.h despite having the REQ_ name - as
blkdev.h includes bio.h that is the only way to go for now.

6e31609b1d exofs: Remove useless optimization
We used to compact all used devices in an IO to the beginning
of the device array in an io_state. And keep a last device used
so in later loops we don't iterate on all device slots. This
does not prevent us from checking if slots are empty since in
reads we only read from a single mirror and jump to the next
mirror-set.

This optimization is marginal, and needlessly complicates the
code. Specially when we will later want to support raid/456
with same abstract code. So remove the distinction between
"dev" and "comp". Only "dev" is used both as the device used
and as the index (component) in the device array.

[Note that now the io_state->dev member is redundant but I
 keep it because I might want to optimize by only IOing a
 single group, though keeping a group_width*mirrors devices
 in io_state, we now keep num-devices in each io_state]

As per Christoph advise: no need to call filemap_write_and_wait().
In exofs all metadata is at the inode so just writing the inode is
all is needed. ->fsync implies this must be done synchronously.

But now exofs_file_fsync can not be used by exofs_file_flush.
vfs_fsync() should do that job correctly.

This is actually an optimization, by using

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

96391e2bae exofs: Error recovery if object is missing from storage
If an object is referenced by a directory but does not
exist on a target, it is a very serious corruption that
means:
1. Either a power failure with very slim chance of it
  happening. Because the directory update is always submitted
  much after object creation, but if a directory is written
  to one device and the object creation to another it might
  theoretically happen.
2. It only ever happened to me while developing with BUGs
  causing file corruption. Crashes could also cause it but
  they are more like case 1.

In any way the object does not exist, so data is surely lost.
If there is a mix-up in the obj-id or data-map, then lost objects
can be salvaged by off-line fsck. The only recoverable information
is the directory name. By letting it appear as a regular empty file,
with date==0 (1970 Jan 1st) ownership to root, we enable recovery
of the only useful information. And also enable deletion or over-write.
I can see how this can hurt.

86093aaff5 exofs: convert io_state to use pages array instead of bio at input
* inode.c operations are full-pages based, and not actually
  true scatter-gather
* Lets us use more pages at once upto 512 (from 249) in 64 bit
* Brings us much much closer to be able to use exofs's io_state engine
  from objlayout driver. (Once I decide where to put the common code)

After RAID0 patch the outer (input) bio was never used as a bio, but
was simply a page carrier into the raid engine. Even in the simple
mirror/single-dev arrangement pages info was copied into a second bio.
It is now easer to just pass a pages array into the io_state and prepare
bio(s) once.

5d952b8391 exofs: RAID0 support
We now support striping over mirror devices. Including variable sized
stripe_unit.

Some limits:
* stripe_unit must be a multiple of PAGE_SIZE
* stripe_unit * stripe_count is maximum upto 32-bit (4Gb)

Tested RAID0 over mirrors, RAID0 only, mirrors only. All check.

Design notes:
* I'm not using a vectored raid-engine mechanism yet. Following the
  pnfs-objects-layout data-map structure, "Mirror" is just a private
  case of "group_width" == 1, and RAID0 is a private case of
  "Mirrors" == 1. The performance lose of the general case over the
  particular special case optimization is totally negligible, also
  considering the extra code size.

* In general I added a prepare_stripes() stage that divides the
  to-be-io pages to the participating devices, the previous
  exofs_ios_write/read, now becomes _write/read_mirrors and a new
  write/read upper layer loops on all devices calling
  _write/read_mirrors. Effectively the prepare_stripes stage is the all
  secret.
  Also truncate need fixing to accommodate for striping.

* In a RAID0 arrangement, in a regular usage scenario, if all inode
  layouts will start at the same device, the small files fill up the
  first device and the later devices stay empty, the farther the device
  the emptier it is.

  To fix that, each inode will start at a different stripe_unit,
  according to it's obj_id modulus number-of-stripe-units. And
  will then span all stripe-units in the same incrementing order
  wrapping back to the beginning of the device table. We call it
  a stripe-units moving window.

  Special consideration was taken to keep all devices in a mirror
  arrangement identical. So a broken osd-device could just be cloned
  from one of the mirrors and no FS scrubbing is needed. (We do that
  by rotating stripe-unit at a time and not a single device at a time.)

TODO:
 We no longer verify object_length == inode->i_size in exofs_iget.
 (since i_size is stripped on multiple objects now).
 I should introduce a multiple-device attribute reading, and use
 it in exofs_iget.

d9c740d225 exofs: Define on-disk per-inode optional layout attribute
* Layouts describe the way a file is spread on multiple devices.
  The layout information is stored in the objects attribute introduced
  in this patch.

* There can be multiple generating function for the layout.
  Currently defined:
    - No attribute present - use below moving-window on global
      device table, all devices.
      (This is the only one currently used in exofs)
    - an obj_id generated moving window - the obj_id is a randomizing
      factor in the otherwise global map layout.
    - An explicit layout stored, including a data_map and a device
      index list.
    - More might be defined in future ...

* There are two attributes defined of the same structure:
  A-data-files-layout - This layout is used by data-files. If present
                        at a directory, all files of that directory will
                        be created with this layout.
  A-meta-data-layout - This layout is used by a directory and other
                       meta-data information. Also inherited at creation
                       of subdirectories.

* At creation time inodes are created with the layout specified above.
  A usermode utility may change the creation layout on a give directory
  or file. Which in the case of directories, will also apply to newly
  created files/subdirectories, children of that directory.
  In the simple unaltered case of a newly created exofs, no layout
  attributes are present, and all layouts adhere to the layout specified
  at the device-table.

* In case of a future file system loaded in an old exofs-driver.
  At iget(), the generating_function is inspected and if not supported
  will return an IO error to the application and the inode will not
  be loaded. So not to damage any data.
  Note: After this patch we do not yet support any type of layout
        only the RAID0 patch that enables striping at the super-block
        level will add support for RAID0 layouts above. This way we
        are past and future compatible and fully bisectable.

* Access to the device table is done by an accessor since
  it will change according to above information.

efd124b999 exofs: simple_write_end does not mark_inode_dirty
exofs uses simple_write_end() for it's .write_end handler. But
it is not enough because simple_write_end() does not call
mark_inode_dirty() when it extends i_size. So even if we do
call mark_inode_dirty at beginning of write out, with a very
long IO and a saturated system we might get the .write_inode()
called while still extend-writing to file and miss out on the last
i_size updates.

So override .write_end, call simple_write_end(), and afterwords if
i_size was changed call mark_inode_dirty().

It stands to logic that since simple_write_end() was the one extending
i_size it should also call mark_inode_dirty(). But it looks like all
users of simple_write_end() are memory-bound pseudo filesystems, who
could careless about mark_inode_dirty(). I might submit a
warning-comment patch to simple_write_end() in future.

89be503021 exofs: fix pnfs_osd re-definitions in pre-pnfs trees
Some on disk exofs constants and types are defined in the pnfs_osd_xdr.h
file. Since we needed these types before the pnfs-objects code was
accepted to mainline we duplicated the minimal needed definitions into
an exofs local header. The definitions where conditionally included
depending on !CONFIG_PNFS defined. So if PNFS was present in the tree
definitions are taken from there and if not they are defined locally.

That was all good but, the CONFIG_PNFS is planed to be included upstream
before the pnfs-objects is also included. (The first pnfs batch might be
pnfs-files only)

So condition exofs local definitions on the absence of pnfs_osd_xdr.h
inclusion (__PNFS_OSD_XDR_H__ not defined). User code must make sure
that in future pnfs_osd_xdr.h will be included before fs/exofs/pnfs.h,
which happens to be so in current code.

Once pnfs-objects hits mainline, exofs's local header will be removed.

04dc1e88ad exofs: Multi-device mirror support
This patch changes on-disk format, it is accompanied with a parallel
patch to mkfs.exofs that enables multi-device capabilities.

After this patch, old exofs will refuse to mount a new formatted FS and
new exofs will refuse an old format. This is done by moving the magic
field offset inside the FSCB. A new FSCB *version* field was added. In
the future, exofs will refuse to mount unmatched FSCB version. To
up-grade or down-grade an exofs one must use mkfs.exofs --upgrade option
before mounting.

Introduced, a new object that contains a *device-table*. This object
contains the default *data-map* and a linear array of devices
information, which identifies the devices used in the filesystem. This
object is only written to offline by mkfs.exofs. This is why it is kept
separate from the FSCB, since the later is written to while mounted.

Same partition number, same object number is used on all devices only
the device varies.

* define the new format, then load the device table on mount time make
  sure every thing is supported.

* Change I/O engine to now support Mirror IO, .i.e write same data
  to multiple devices, read from a random device to spread the
  read-load from multiple clients (TODO: stripe read)

Implementation notes:
 A few points introduced in previous patch should be mentioned here:

* Special care was made so absolutlly all operation that have any chance
  of failing are done before any osd-request is executed. This is to
  minimize the need for a data consistency recovery, to only real IO
  errors.

* Each IO state has a kref. It starts at 1, any osd-request executed
  will increment the kref, finally when all are executed the first ref
  is dropped. At IO-done, each request completion decrements the kref,
  the last one to return executes the internal _last_io() routine.
  _last_io() will call the registered io_state_done. On sync mode a
  caller does not supply a done method, indicating a synchronous
  request, the caller is put to sleep and a special io_state_done is
  registered that will awaken the caller. Though also in sync mode all
  operations are executed in parallel.

06886a5a3d exofs: Move all operations to an io_engine
In anticipation for multi-device operations, we separate osd operations
into an abstract I/O API. Currently only one device is used but later
when adding more devices, we will drive all devices in parallel according
to a "data_map" that describes how data is arranged on multiple devices.
The file system level operates, like before, as if there is one object
(inode-number) and an i_size. The io engine will split this to the same
object-number but on multiple device.

At first we introduce Mirror (raid 1) layout. But at the final outcome
we intend to fully implement the pNFS-Objects data-map, including
raid 0,4,5,6 over mirrored devices, over multiple device-groups. And
more. See: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-nfsv4-pnfs-obj-12

* Define an io_state based API for accessing osd storage devices
  in an abstract way.
  Usage:
	First a caller allocates an io state with:
		exofs_get_io_state(struct exofs_sb_info *sbi,
				   struct exofs_io_state** ios);

	Then calles one of:
		exofs_sbi_create(struct exofs_io_state *ios);
		exofs_sbi_remove(struct exofs_io_state *ios);
		exofs_sbi_write(struct exofs_io_state *ios);
		exofs_sbi_read(struct exofs_io_state *ios);
		exofs_oi_truncate(struct exofs_i_info *oi, u64 new_len);

	And when done
		exofs_put_io_state(struct exofs_io_state *ios);

* Convert all source files to use this new API
* Convert from bio_alloc to bio_kmalloc
* In io engine we make use of the now fixed osd_req_decode_sense

There are no functional changes or on disk additions after this patch.

a rename recorded so later rebased/cherry-picked patches

1ba50bbe93 exofs: remove BKL from super operations
the two places inside exofs that where taking the BKL were:
exofs_put_super() - .put_super
and
exofs_sync_fs() - which is .sync_fs and is also called from
                  .write_super.

Now exofs_sync_fs() is protected from itself by also taking
the sb_lock.

exofs_put_super() directly calls exofs_sync_fs() so there is no
danger between these two either.

In anyway there is absolutely nothing dangerous been done
inside exofs_sync_fs().

Unless there is some subtle race with the actual lifetime of
the super_block in regard to .put_super and some other parts
of the VFS. Which is highly unlikely.
