07d400a6df Btrfs: tree logging checksum fixes
This patch contains following things.

1) Limit the max size of btrfs_ordered_sum structure to PAGE_SIZE.  This
struct is kmalloced so we want to keep it reasonable.

2) Replace copy_extent_csums by btrfs_lookup_csums_range.  This was
duplicated code in tree-log.c

3) Remove replay_one_csum. csum items are replayed at the same time as
   replaying file extents. This guarantees we only replay useful csums.

4) nbytes accounting fix.

1f3c79a28c Btrfs: Fix free block discard calls down to the block layer
This is a patch to fix discard semantic to make Btrfs work with FTL and SSD.
We can improve FTL's performance by telling it which sectors are freed by file
system. But if we don't tell FTL the information of free sectors in proper
time, the transaction mechanism of Btrfs will be destroyed and Btrfs could not
roll back the previous transaction under the power loss condition.

There are some problems in the old implementation:
1, In __free_extent(), the pinned down extents should not be discarded.
2, In free_extents(), the free extents are all pinned, so they need to
be discarded in transaction committing time instead of free_extents().
3, The reserved extent used by log tree should be discard too.

This patch change discard behavior as follows:
1, For the extents which need to be free at once,
   we discard them in update_block_group().
2, Delay discarding the pinned extent in btrfs_finish_extent_commit()
   when committing transaction.
3, Remove discarding from free_extents() and __free_extent()
4, Add discard interface into btrfs_free_reserved_extent()
5, Discard sectors before updating the free space cache, otherwise,
   FTL will destroy file system data.

dcbdd4dcb9 Btrfs: delete checksum items before marking blocks free
Btrfs maintains a cache of blocks available for allocation in ram.  The
code that frees extents was marking the extents free and then deleting
the checksum items.

This meant it was possible the extent would be reallocated before the
checksum item was actually deleted, leading to races and other
problems as the checksums were updated for the newly allocated extent.

The fix is to delete the checksum before marking the extent free.

17d217fe97 Btrfs: fix nodatasum handling in balancing code
Checksums on data can be disabled by mount option, so it's
possible some data extents don't have checksums or have
invalid checksums. This causes trouble for data relocation.
This patch contains following things to make data relocation
work.

1) make nodatasum/nodatacow mount option only affects new
files. Checksums and COW on data are only controlled by the
inode flags.

2) check the existence of checksum in the nodatacow checker.
If checksums exist, force COW the data extent. This ensure that
checksum for a given block is either valid or does not exist.

3) update data relocation code to properly handle the case
of checksum missing.

459931eca5 Btrfs: Delete csum items when freeing extents
This finishes off the new checksumming code by removing csum items
for extents that are no longer in use.

The trick is doing it without racing because a single csum item may
hold csums for more than one extent.  Extra checks are added to
btrfs_csum_file_blocks to make sure that we are using the correct
csum item after dropping locks.

A new btrfs_split_item is added to split a single csum item so it
can be split without dropping the leaf lock.  This is used to
remove csum bytes from the middle of an item.

07103a3cdb Btrfs: fix free space accounting when unpinning extents
This patch fixes what I hope is the last early ENOSPC bug left.  I did not know
that pinned extents would merge into one big extent when inserted on to the
pinned extent tree, so I was adding free space to a block group that could
possibly span multiple block groups.

This is a big issue because first that space doesn't exist in that block group,
and second we won't actually use that space because there are a bunch of other
checks to make sure we're allocating within the constraints of the block group.

This patch fixes the problem by adding the btrfs_add_free_space to
btrfs_update_pinned_extents which makes sure we are adding the appropriate
amount of free space to the appropriate block group.  Thanks much to Lee Trager
for running my myriad of debug patches to help me track this problem down.

e3e469f86e Btrfs: fix free space leak
In my batch delete/update/insert patch I introduced a free space leak.  The
extent that we do the original search on in free_extents is never pinned, so we
always update the block saying that it has free space, but the free space never
actually gets added to the free space tree, since op->del will always be 0 and
it's never actually added to the pinned extents tree.

This patch fixes this problem by making sure we call pin_down_bytes on the
pending extent op and set op->del to the return value of pin_down_bytes so
update_block_group is called with the right value.  This seems to fix the case
where we were getting ENOSPC when there was plenty of space available.

2b82032c34 Btrfs: Seed device support
Seed device is a special btrfs with SEEDING super flag
set and can only be mounted in read-only mode. Seed
devices allow people to create new btrfs on top of it.

The new FS contains the same contents as the seed device,
but it can be mounted in read-write mode.

This patch does the following:

1) split code in btrfs_alloc_chunk into two parts. The first part does makes
the newly allocated chunk usable, but does not do any operation that modifies
the chunk tree. The second part does the the chunk tree modifications. This
division is for the bootstrap step of adding storage to the seed device.

2) Update device management code to handle seed device.
The basic idea is: For an FS grown from seed devices, its
seed devices are put into a list. Seed devices are
opened on demand at mounting time. If any seed device is
missing or has been changed, btrfs kernel module will
refuse to mount the FS.

3) make btrfs_find_block_group not return NULL when all
block groups are read-only.

f3465ca44e Btrfs: batch extent inserts/updates/deletions on the extent root
While profiling the allocator I noticed a good amount of time was being spent in
finish_current_insert and del_pending_extents, and as the filesystem filled up
more and more time was being spent in those functions.  This patch aims to try
and reduce that problem.  This happens two ways

1) track if we tried to delete an extent that we are going to update or insert.
Once we get into finish_current_insert we discard any of the extents that were
marked for deletion.  This saves us from doing unnecessary work almost every
time finish_current_insert runs.

2) Batch insertion/updates/deletions.  Instead of doing a btrfs_search_slot for
each individual extent and doing the needed operation, we instead keep the leaf
around and see if there is anything else we can do on that leaf.  On the insert
case I introduced a btrfs_insert_some_items, which will take an array of keys
with an array of data_sizes and try and squeeze in as many of those keys as
possible, and then return how many keys it was able to insert.  In the update
case we search for an extent ref, update the ref and then loop through the leaf
to see if any of the other refs we are looking to update are on that leaf, and
then once we are done we release the path and search for the next ref we need to
update.  And finally for the deletion we try and delete the extent+ref in pairs,
so we will try to find extent+ref pairs next to the extent we are trying to free
and free them in bulk if possible.

This along with the other cluster fix that Chris pushed out a bit ago helps make
the allocator preform more uniformly as it fills up the disk.  There is still a
slight drop as we fill up the disk since we start having to stick new blocks in
odd places which results in more COW's than on a empty fs, but the drop is not
nearly as severe as it was before.

771ed689d2 Btrfs: Optimize compressed writeback and reads
When reading compressed extents, try to put pages into the page cache
for any pages covered by the compressed extent that readpages didn't already
preload.

Add an async work queue to handle transformations at delayed allocation processing
time.  Right now this is just compression.  The workflow is:

1) Find offsets in the file marked for delayed allocation
2) Lock the pages
3) Lock the state bits
4) Call the async delalloc code

The async delalloc code clears the state lock bits and delalloc bits.  It is
important this happens before the range goes into the work queue because
otherwise it might deadlock with other work queue items that try to lock
those extent bits.

The file pages are compressed, and if the compression doesn't work the
pages are written back directly.

An ordered work queue is used to make sure the inodes are written in the same
order that pdflush or writepages sent them down.

This changes extent_write_cache_pages to let the writepage function
update the wbc nr_written count.

2517920135 Btrfs: nuke fs wide allocation mutex V2
This patch removes the giant fs_info->alloc_mutex and replaces it with a bunch
of little locks.

There is now a pinned_mutex, which is used when messing with the pinned_extents
extent io tree, and the extent_ins_mutex which is used with the pending_del and
extent_ins extent io trees.

The locking for the extent tree stuff was inspired by a patch that Yan Zheng
wrote to fix a race condition, I cleaned it up some and changed the locking
around a little bit, but the idea remains the same.  Basically instead of
holding the extent_ins_mutex throughout the processing of an extent on the
extent_ins or pending_del trees, we just hold it while we're searching and when
we clear the bits on those trees, and lock the extent for the duration of the
operations on the extent.

Also to keep from getting hung up waiting to lock an extent, I've added a
try_lock_extent so if we cannot lock the extent, move on to the next one in the
tree and we'll come back to that one.  I have tested this heavily and it does
not appear to break anything.  This has to be applied on top of my
find_free_extent redo patch.

I tested this patch on top of Yan's space reblancing code and it worked fine.

80eb234af0 Btrfs: fix enospc when there is plenty of space
So there is an odd case where we can possibly return -ENOSPC when there is in
fact space to be had.  It only happens with Metadata writes, and happens _very_
infrequently.  What has to happen is we have to allocate have allocated out of
the first logical byte on the disk, which would set last_alloc to
first_logical_byte(root, 0), so search_start == orig_search_start.  We then
need to allocate for normal metadata, so BTRFS_BLOCK_GROUP_METADATA |
BTRFS_BLOCK_GROUP_DUP.  We will do a block lookup for the given search_start,
block_group_bits() won't match and we'll go to choose another block group.
However because search_start matches orig_search_start we go to see if we can
allocate a chunk.

If we are in the situation that we cannot allocate a chunk, we fail and ENOSPC.
This is kind of a big flaw of the way find_free_extent works, as it along with
find_free_space loop through _all_ of the block groups, not just the ones that
we want to allocate out of.  This patch completely kills find_free_space and
rolls it into find_free_extent.  I've introduced a sort of state machine into
this, which will make it easier to get cache miss information out of the
allocator, and will work well with my locking changes.

The basic flow is this:  We have the variable loop which is 0, meaning we are
in the hint phase.  We lookup the block group for the hint, and lookup the
space_info for what we want to allocate out of.  If the block group we were
pointed at by the hint either isn't of the correct type, or just doesn't have
the space we need, we set head to space_info->block_groups, so we start at the
beginning of the block groups for this particular space info, and loop through.

This is also where we add the empty_cluster to total_needed.  At this point
loop is set to 1 and we just loop through all of the block groups for this
particular space_info looking for the space we need, just as find_free_space
would have done, except we only hit the block groups we want and not _all_ of
the block groups.  If we come full circle we see if we can allocate a chunk.
If we cannot of course we exit with -ENOSPC and we are good.  If not we start
over at space_info->block_groups and loop through again, with loop == 2.  If we
come full circle and haven't found what we need then we exit with -ENOSPC.
I've been running this for a couple of days now and it seems stable, and I
haven't yet hit a -ENOSPC when there was plenty of space left.

Also I've made a groups_sem to handle the group list for the space_info.  This
is part of my locking changes, but is relatively safe and seems better than

f82d02d9d8 Btrfs: Improve space balancing code
This patch improves the space balancing code to keep more sharing
of tree blocks. The only case that breaks sharing of tree blocks is
data extents get fragmented during balancing. The main changes in
this patch are:

Add a 'drop sub-tree' function. This solves the problem in old code
that BTRFS_HEADER_FLAG_WRITTEN check breaks sharing of tree block.

Remove relocation mapping tree. Relocation mappings are stored in
struct btrfs_ref_path and updated dynamically during walking up/down
the reference path. This reduces CPU usage and simplifies code.

This patch also fixes a bug. Root items for reloc trees should be
updated in btrfs_free_reloc_root.

c8b978188c Btrfs: Add zlib compression support
This is a large change for adding compression on reading and writing,
both for inline and regular extents.  It does some fairly large
surgery to the writeback paths.

Compression is off by default and enabled by mount -o compress.  Even
when the -o compress mount option is not used, it is possible to read
compressed extents off the disk.

If compression for a given set of pages fails to make them smaller, the
file is flagged to avoid future compression attempts later.

* While finding delalloc extents, the pages are locked before being sent down
to the delalloc handler.  This allows the delalloc handler to do complex things
such as cleaning the pages, marking them writeback and starting IO on their
behalf.

* Inline extents are inserted at delalloc time now.  This allows us to compress
the data before inserting the inline extent, and it allows us to insert
an inline extent that spans multiple pages.

* All of the in-memory extent representations (extent_map.c, ordered-data.c etc)
are changed to record both an in-memory size and an on disk size, as well
as a flag for compression.

From a disk format point of view, the extent pointers in the file are changed
to record the on disk size of a given extent and some encoding flags.
Space in the disk format is allocated for compression encoding, as well
as encryption and a generic 'other' field.  Neither the encryption or the
'other' field are currently used.

In order to limit the amount of data read for a single random read in the
file, the size of a compressed extent is limited to 128k.  This is a
software only limit, the disk format supports u64 sized compressed extents.

In order to limit the ram consumed while processing extents, the uncompressed
size of a compressed extent is limited to 256k.  This is a software only limit
and will be subject to tuning later.

Checksumming is still done on compressed extents, and it is done on the
uncompressed version of the data.  This way additional encodings can be
layered on without having to figure out which encoding to checksum.

Compression happens at delalloc time, which is basically singled threaded because
it is usually done by a single pdflush thread.  This makes it tricky to
spread the compression load across all the cpus on the box.  We'll have to
look at parallel pdflush walks of dirty inodes at a later time.

Decompression is hooked into readpages and it does spread across CPUs nicely.

5b84e8d6ee Btrfs: Fix leaf reference cache miss
Due to the optimization for truncate, tree leaves only containing
checksum items can be deleted without being COW'ed first. This causes
reference cache misses. The way to fix the miss is create cache
entries for tree leaves only contain checksum.

This patch also fixes a -EEXIST issue in shared reference cache.

3bb1a1bc42 Btrfs: Remove offset field from struct btrfs_extent_ref
The offset field in struct btrfs_extent_ref records the position
inside file that file extent is referenced by. In the new back
reference system, tree leaves holding references to file extent
are recorded explicitly. We can scan these tree leaves very quickly, so the
offset field is not required.

This patch also makes the back reference system check the objectid
when extents are in deleting.

a76a3cd40c Btrfs: Count space allocated to file in bytes
This patch makes btrfs count space allocated to file in bytes instead
of 512 byte sectors.

Everything else in btrfs uses a byte count instead of sector sizes or
blocks sizes, so this fits better.

30c43e2444 Btrfs: remove last_log_alloc allocator optimization
The tree logging code was trying to separate tree log allocations
from normal metadata allocations to improve writeback patterns during
an fsync.

But, the code was not effective and ended up just mixing tree log
blocks with regular metadata.  That seems to be working fairly well,
so the last_log_alloc code can be removed.

cf74982385 Btrfs: fix deadlock between alloc_mutex/chunk_mutex
This fixes a deadlock that happens between the alloc_mutex and chunk_mutex.
Process A comes in, decides to do a do_chunk_alloc, which takes the
chunk_mutex, and is holding the alloc_mutex because the only way you get to
do_chunk_alloc is by holding the alloc_mutex.  btrfs_alloc_chunk does its thing
and goes to insert a new item, which results in a cow of the block.

We get into del_pending_extents from there, where if we need to be rescheduled
we drop the alloc_mutex and schedule.  At this point process B comes in to do
an allocation and gets the alloc_mutex, and because process A did not do the
chunk allocation completely it thinks its a good time to do a chunk allocation
as well, and hangs on the chunk_mutex.

Process A wakes up and tries to take the alloc_mutex and cannot.  The way to
fix this is do a mutex_trylock() on chunk_mutex.  If we return 0 we didn't get
the lock, and if this is just a "hey it may be a good time to allocate a chunk"
then we just exit.  If we are trying to force an allocation then we reschedule
and keep trying to acquire the chunk_mutex.  If once we acquire it the space is
already full then we can just exit, otherwise we can continue with the chunk
allocation.  Thank you,
