If we take the 2nd retry path in ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea, we
potentionally return from the function without having freed these

The culprit of the problem is that after the commit ext4_writepages()
are more aggressive in writing back pages. Thus we have less consecutive
dirty pages resulting in more seeking.
This increased aggressivity is caused by a bug in the condition
terminating ext4_writepages(). We start writing from the beginning of
the file even if we should have terminated ext4_writepages() because
wbc->nr_to_write <= 0.
After fixing the condition the throughput of the fio workload is about 20%
better than before writeback reorganization.

It's always been a hassle that if an external journal's
device number changes, the filesystem won't mount.
And since boot-time enumeration can change, device number
changes aren't unusual.
The current mechanism to update the journal location is by
passing in a mount option w/ a new devnum, but that's a hassle;
it's a manual approach, fixing things after the fact.
Adding a mount option, "-o journal_path=/dev/$DEVICE" would
help, since then we can do i.e.
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/$JOURNAL_LABEL ...
and it'll mount even if the devnum has changed, as shown here:
# losetup /dev/loop0 journalfile
# mke2fs -L mylabel-journal -O journal_dev /dev/loop0
# mkfs.ext4 -L mylabel -J device=/dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1
Change the journal device number:
# losetup -d /dev/loop0
# losetup /dev/loop1 journalfile
And today it will fail:
# mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
# dmesg | tail -n 1
[17343.240702] EXT4-fs (sdb1): error: couldn't read superblock of external journal
But with this new mount option, we can specify the new path:
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/loop1 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
#
(which does update the encoded device number, incidentally):
# umount /dev/sdb1
# dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdb1 | grep "Journal device"
dumpe2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Journal device: 0x0701
But best of all we can just always mount by journal-path, and
it'll always work:
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/mylabel-journal /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
#
So the journal_path option can be specified in fstab, and as long as
the disk is available somewhere, and findable by label (or by UUID),
we can mount.

When we notice a block-bitmap corruption (because of device failure or
something else), we should mark this group as corrupt and prevent
further block allocations/deallocations from it. Currently, we end up
generating one error message for every block in the bitmap. This
potentially could make the system unstable as noticed in some
bugs. With this patch, the error will be printed only the first time
and mark the entire block group as corrupted. This prevents future
access allocations/deallocations from it.
Also tested by corrupting the block
bitmap and forcefully introducing the mb_free_blocks error:
(1) create a largefile (2Gb)
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=largefile oflag=direct bs=10485760 count=200
(2) umount filesystem. use dumpe2fs to see which block-bitmaps
are in use by largefile and note their block numbers
(3) use dd to zero-out the used block bitmaps
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdc4 bs=4096 seek=14 count=8 oflag=direct
(4) mount the FS and delete the largefile.
(5) recreate the largefile. verify that the new largefile does not
get any blocks from the groups marked as bad.
Without the patch, we will see mb_free_blocks error for each bit in
each zero'ed out bitmap at (4). With the patch, we only see the error
once per blockgroup:

The block bitmap verification code assumes that calling ext4_error()
either panics the system or makes the fs readonly. However, this is
not always true: when 'errors=continue' is specified, an error is
printed but we don't return any indication of error to the caller,
which is (probably) the block allocator, which pretends that the crud
we read in off the disk is a usable bitmap. Yuck.
A block bitmap that fails the check should at least return no bitmap
to the caller. The block allocator should be told to go look in a
different group, but that's a separate issue.
The easiest way to reproduce this is to modify bg_block_bitmap (on a
^flex_bg fs) to point to a block outside the block group; or you can
create a metadata_csum filesystem and zero out the block bitmaps.

The following race can lead to a loss of i_disksize update from truncate
thus resulting in a wrong inode size if the inode size isn't updated
again before inode is reclaimed:
ext4_setattr() mpage_map_and_submit_extent()
EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize = attr->ia_size;
... ...
disksize = ((loff_t)mpd->first_page) << PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT
/* False because i_size isn't
* updated yet */
if (disksize > i_size_read(inode))
/* True, because i_disksize is
* already truncated */
if (disksize > EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize)
/* Overwrite i_disksize
* update from truncate */
ext4_update_i_disksize()
i_size_write(inode, attr->ia_size);
For other places updating i_disksize such race cannot happen because
i_mutex prevents these races. Writeback is the only place where we do
not hold i_mutex and we cannot grab it there because of lock ordering.
We fix the race by doing both i_disksize and i_size update in truncate
atomically under i_data_sem and in mpage_map_and_submit_extent() we move
the check against i_size under i_data_sem as well.

Inode size can arbitrarily change while writeback is in progress. When
ext4_writepages() has prepared a long extent for mapping and truncate
then reduces i_size, mpage_map_and_submit_buffers() will always map just
one buffer in a page instead of all of them due to lblk < blocks check.
So we end up not using all blocks we've allocated (thus leaking them)
and also delalloc accounting goes wrong manifesting as a warning like:
ext4_da_release_space:1333: ext4_da_release_space: ino 12, to_free 1
with only 0 reserved data blocks
Note that the problem can happen only when blocksize < pagesize because
otherwise we have only a single buffer in the page.
Fix the problem by removing the size check from the mapping loop. We
have an extent allocated so we have to use it all before checking for
i_size. We also rename add_page_bufs_to_extent() to
mpage_process_page_bufs() and make that function submit the page for IO
if all buffers (upto EOF) in it are mapped.

reaim workfile.dbase test easily triggers warning in

EXT4-fs warning (device ram0): ext4_da_update_reserve_space:365:
ino 12, allocated 1 with only 0 reserved metadata blocks (releasing 1
blocks with reserved 9 data blocks)
The problem is that (one of) tests creates file and then randomly writes
to it with O_SYNC. That results in writing back pages of the file in
random order so we create extents for written blocks say 0, 2, 4, 6, 8
- this last allocation also allocates new block for extents. Then we
writeout block 1 so we have extents 0-2, 4, 6, 8 and we release
indirect extent block because extents fit in the inode again. Then we
writeout block 10 and we need to allocate indirect extent block again
which triggers the warning because we don't have the reservation
anymore.
Fix the problem by giving back freed metadata blocks resulting from
extent merging into inode's reservation pool.

In no journal mode, if an inode has recently been deleted, we
shouldn't reuse it right away. Otherwise it's possible, after an
unclean shutdown, to hit a situation where a recently deleted inode
gets reused for some other purpose before the inode table block has
been written to disk. However, if the directory entry has been
updated, then the directory entry will be pointing at the old inode
contents.
E2fsck will make sure the file system is consistent after the
unclean shutdown. However, if the recently deleted inode is a
character mode device, or an inode with the immutable bit set, even
after the file system has been fixed up by e2fsck, it can be
possible for a *.pyc file to be pointing at a character mode
device, and when python tries to open the *.pyc file, Hilarity
Ensues. We could change all of userspace to be very suspicious
about stat'ing files before opening them, and clearing the
immutable flag if necessary --- or we can just avoid reusing an
inode number if it has been recently deleted.

When ext4_rename() overwrites an already existing file, call
ext4_alloc_da_blocks() before starting the journal handle which
actually does the rename, instead of doing this afterwards. This
improves the likelihood that the contents will survive a crash if an
application replaces a file using the sequence:
1) write replacement contents to foo.new
2) <omit fsync of foo.new>
3) rename foo.new to foo
It is still not a guarantee, since ext4_alloc_da_blocks() is *not*
doing a file integrity sync; this means if foo.new is a very large
file, it may not be completely flushed out to disk.
However, for files smaller than a megabyte or so, any dirty pages
should be flushed out before we do the rename operation, and so at the
next journal commit, the CACHE FLUSH command will make sure al of
these pages are safely on the disk platter.

Add a new fiemap flag which forces the all of the extents in an inode
to be cached in the extent_status tree. This is critically important
when using AIO to a preallocated file, since if we need to read in
blocks from the extent tree, the io_submit(2) system call becomes
synchronous, and the AIO is no longer "A", which is bad.
In addition, for most files which have an external leaf tree block,
the cost of caching the information in the extent status tree will be
less than caching the entire 4k block in the buffer cache. So it is
generally a win to keep the extent information cached.

When we try to allocate an inode, and there is a race between two

we continue searching the rest of the block groups. Otherwise, we end
up searching the current block group twice, and we end up skipping

with Windows 8, we expose our users to untested BIOS/AML code paths.
However, as it turns out, some Windows 8-specific AML code paths are
not tested either, because Windows 8 actually doesn't use the ACPI
methods containing them, so if we declare Windows 8 compatibility and
attempt to use those ACPI methods, things break. That occurs mostly
in the backlight support area where in particular the _BCM and _BQC
methods are plain unusable on some systems if the OS declares Windows
8 compatibility.
[ The additional twist is that they actually become usable if the OS
says it is not compatible with Windows 8, but that may cause
problems to show up elsewhere ]
Investigation carried out by Matthew Garrett indicates that what
Windows 8 does about backlight is to leave backlight control up to
individual graphics drivers. At least there's evidence that it does
that if the Intel graphics driver is used, so we've decided to follow
Windows 8 in that respect and allow i915 to control backlight (Daniel
likes that part).
The first commit from Aaron Lu makes ACPICA export the variable from
which we can infer whether or not the BIOS believes that we are
compatible with Windows 8.
The second commit from Matthew Garrett prepares the ACPI video driver
by making it initialize the ACPI backlight even if it is not going to
be used afterward (that is needed for backlight control to work on
Thinkpads).
The third commit implements the actual workaround making i915 take
over backlight control if the firmware thinks it's dealing with
Windows 8 and is based on the work of multiple developers, including
Matthew Garrett, Chun-Yi Lee, Seth Forshee, and Aaron Lu.
The final commit from Aaron Lu makes us follow Windows 8 by informing
the firmware through the _DOS method that it should not carry out
automatic brightness changes, so that brightness can be controlled by
GUI.
Hopefully, this approach will allow us to avoid using blacklists of
systems that should not declare Windows 8 compatibility just to avoid
backlight control problems in the future.
- Change from Aaron Lu makes ACPICA export a variable which can be
used by driver code to determine whether or not the BIOS believes
that we are compatible with Windows 8.
- Change from Matthew Garrett makes the ACPI video driver initialize
the ACPI backlight even if it is not going to be used afterward
(that is needed for backlight control to work on Thinkpads).
- Fix from Rafael J Wysocki implements Windows 8 backlight support
workaround making i915 take over bakclight control if the firmware
thinks it's dealing with Windows 8. Based on the work of multiple
developers including Matthew Garrett, Chun-Yi Lee, Seth Forshee,
and Aaron Lu.
- Fix from Aaron Lu makes the kernel follow Windows 8 by informing
the firmware through the _DOS method that it should not carry out
automatic brightness changes, so that brightness can be controlled
by GUI"

Here are a few iio driver fixes for 3.11-rc2. They are still spread
across drivers/iio and drivers/staging/iio so they are coming in through
this tree.
I've also removed the drivers/staging/csr/ driver as the developers who
originally sent it to me have moved on to other companies, and CSR still
will not send us the specs for the device, making the driver pretty much
obsolete and impossible to fix up. Deleting it now prevents people from
sending in lots of tiny codingsyle fixes that will never go anywhere.
It also helps to offset the large lustre filesystem merge that happened
in 3.11-rc1 in the overall 3.11.0 diffstat. :)

Eric Sandeen has found a nasty livelock in sget() - take a mount(2) about
to fail. The superblock is on ->fs_supers, ->s_umount is held exclusive,
->s_active is 1. Along comes two more processes, trying to mount the same
thing; sget() in each is picking that superblock, bumping ->s_count and
trying to grab ->s_umount. ->s_active is 3 now. Original mount(2)
finally gets to deactivate_locked_super() on failure; ->s_active is 2,
superblock is still ->fs_supers because shutdown will *not* happen until
->s_active hits 0. ->s_umount is dropped and now we have two processes
chasing each other:
s_active = 2, A acquired ->s_umount, B blocked
A sees that the damn thing is stillborn, does deactivate_locked_super()
s_active = 1, A drops ->s_umount, B gets it
A restarts the search and finds the same superblock. And bumps it ->s_active.
s_active = 2, B holds ->s_umount, A blocked on trying to get it
... and we are in the earlier situation with A and B switched places.
The root cause, of course, is that ->s_active should not grow until we'd
got MS_BORN. Then failing ->mount() will have deactivate_locked_super()
shut the damn thing down. Fortunately, it's easy to do - the key point
is that grab_super() is called only for superblocks currently on ->fs_supers,
so it can bump ->s_count and grab ->s_umount first, then check MS_BORN and
bump ->s_active; we must never increment ->s_count for superblocks past
->kill_sb(), but grab_super() is never called for those.
The bug is pretty old; we would've caught it by now, if not for accidental
exclusion between sget() for block filesystems; the things like cgroup or
e.g. mtd-based filesystems don't have anything of that sort, so they get
bitten. The right way to deal with that is obviously to fix sget()...
