A user sent me a btrfs-image of a file system that was panicing on mount during
the log recovery. I had originally thought these problems were from a bug in
the free space cache code, but that was just a symptom of the problem. The
problem is if your application does something like this
[prealloc][prealloc][prealloc]
the internal extent maps will merge those all together into one extent map, even
though on disk they are 3 separate extents. So if you go to write into one of
these ranges the extent map will be right since we use the physical extent when
doing the write, but when we log the extents they will use the wrong sizes for
the remainder prealloc space. If this doesn't happen to trip up the free space
cache (which it won't in a lot of cases) then you will get bogus entries in your
extent tree which will screw stuff up later. The data and such will still work,
but everything else is broken. This patch fixes this by not allowing extents
that are on the modified list to be merged. This has the side effect that we
are no longer adding everything to the modified list all the time, which means
we now have to call btrfs_drop_extents every time we log an extent into the
tree. So this allows me to drop all this speciality code I was using to get
around calling btrfs_drop_extents. With this patch the testcase I've created no
longer creates a bogus file system after replaying the log. Thanks,

When logging changed extents I was logging ram_bytes as the current length,
which isn't correct, it's supposed to be the ram bytes of the original extent.
This is for compression where even if we split the extent we need to know the
ram bytes so when we uncompress the extent we know how big it will be. This was
still working out right with compression for some reason but I think we were
getting lucky. It was definitely off for prealloc which is why I noticed it,
btrfsck was complaining about it. With this patch btrfsck no longer complains
after a log replay. Thanks,
Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com>
While trying to track down a tree log replay bug I noticed that fsck was always
complaining about nbytes not being right for our fsynced file. That is because
the new fsync stuff doesn't wait for ordered extents to complete, so the inodes
nbytes are not necessarily updated properly when we log it. So to fix this we
need to set nbytes to whatever it is on the inode that is on disk, so when we
replay the extents we can just add the bytes that are being added as we replay
the extent. This makes it work for the case that we have the wrong nbytes or
the case that we logged everything and nbytes is actually correct. With this
I'm no longer getting nbytes errors out of btrfsck.

Apparently when we do inline extents we allow the data to overlap the last chunk
of the btrfs_file_extent_item, which means that we can possibly have a
btrfs_file_extent_item that isn't actually as large as a btrfs_file_extent_item.
This messes with us when we try to overwrite the extent when logging new extents
since we expect for it to be the right size. To fix this just delete the item
and try to do the insert again which will give us the proper sized
btrfs_file_extent_item. This fixes a panic where map_private_extent_buffer
would blow up because we're trying to write past the end of the leaf. Thanks,

So far the return code of barrier_all_devices() is ignored, which
means that errors are ignored. The result can be a corrupt
filesystem which is not consistent.
This commit adds code to evaluate the return code of
barrier_all_devices(). The normal btrfs_error() mechanism is used to
switch the filesystem into read-only mode when errors are detected.
In order to decide whether barrier_all_devices() should return
error or success, the number of disks that are allowed to fail the
barrier submission is calculated. This calculation accounts for the
worst RAID level of metadata, system and data. If single, dup or
RAID0 is in use, a single disk error is already considered to be
fatal. Otherwise a single disk error is tolerated.
The calculation of the number of disks that are tolerated to fail
the barrier operation is performed when the filesystem gets mounted,
when a balance operation is started and finished, and when devices
are added or removed.

root's last_log_commit is updated and the N-1 remained files will
be skipped.
This fixes the bug by keeping a local copy of root's last_log_commit
inside each inode and this local copy will be maintained itself.

This is based on Josef's "Btrfs: turbo charge fsync".
The above Josef's patch performs very good in random sync write test,
because we won't have too much extents to merge.
However, it does not performs good on the test:
dd if=/dev/zero of=foobar bs=4k count=12500 oflag=sync
The reason is when we do sequencial sync write, we need to merge the
current extent just with the previous one, so that we can get accumulated
extents to log:
A(4k) --> AA(8k) --> AAA(12k) --> AAAA(16k) ...
So we'll have to flush more and more checksum into log tree, which is the
bottleneck according to my tests.
But we can avoid this by telling fsync the real extents that are needed
to be logged.

At least for the vm workload. Currently on fsync we will
1) Truncate all items in the log tree for the given inode if they exist
and
2) Copy all items for a given inode into the log
The problem with this is that for things like VMs you can have lots of
extents from the fragmented writing behavior, and worst yet you may have
only modified a few extents, not the entire thing. This patch fixes this
problem by tracking which transid modified our extent, and then when we do
the tree logging we find all of the extents we've modified in our current
transaction, sort them and commit them. We also only truncate up to the
xattrs of the inode and copy that stuff in normally, and then just drop any
extents in the range we have that exist in the log already. Here are some
numbers of a 50 meg fio job that does random writes and fsync()s after every
write
Original Patched
SATA drive 82KB/s 140KB/s
Fusion drive 431KB/s 2532KB/s
So around 2-6 times faster depending on your hardware. There are a few
corner cases, for example if you truncate at all we have to do it the old
way since there is no way to be sure what is in the log is ok. This
probably could be done smarter, but if you write-fsync-truncate-write-fsync
you deserve what you get. All this work is in RAM of course so if your
inode gets evicted from cache and you read it in and fsync it we'll do it
the slow way if we are still in the same transaction that we last modified
the inode in.
The biggest cool part of this is that it requires no changes to the recovery
code, so if you fsync with this patch and crash and load an old kernel, it
will run the recovery and be a-ok. I have tested this pretty thoroughly
with an fsync tester and everything comes back fine, as well as xfstests.

So dpkg fsync()'s the file and the directory containing the file whenever it
writes to a file which is really slow in btrfs. This is partly because
fsync()'ing a directory _always_ committed the transaction instead of just
going to the tree log. This is because drop_objectid_items() would return 1
since it does a btrfs_search_slot() which returns 1. In tree-log jargon
this means that we have to commit the transaction to be safe. So just check
if ret is greater than 0 and set it to 0 if it does. With this patch we now
use the tree-log instead of committing the entire transaction, which is

The tree log had two important bugs that could cause corruptions after a
crash. Sometimes we were allowing tree log blocks to be reused after
the tree log was committed but before the transaction commit was done.
This allowed a future metadata write to overwrite the tree log data. It
is fixed by adding a new variant of freeing reserved extents that always
pins them. Credit goes to Stefan Behrens and Arne Jansen for many many
hours spent tracking this bug down.
During tree log replay, we do a pass through the tree log and pin all
the extents we find. This makes sure the replay code won't go in and
use any of those blocks for new allocations during replay. The problem
is the free space cache isn't honoring these pinned extents. So the
allocator can end up handing them out, leading to all kinds of problems
during replay.
The fix here is to force any free space cache to load while we pin the
extents, and then to make sure we remove the pinned extents from the
free space rbtree.

The btrfs metadata btree is the source of significant
lock contention, especially in the root node. This
commit changes our locking to use a reader/writer
lock.
The lock is built on top of rw spinlocks, and it
extends the lock tracking to remember if we have a
read lock or a write lock when we go to blocking. Atomics
count the number of blocking readers or writers at any
given time.
It removes all of the adaptive spinning from the old code
and uses only the spinning/blocking hints inside of btrfs
to decide when it should continue spinning.
In read heavy workloads this is dramatically faster. In write
heavy workloads we're still faster because of less contention
on the root node lock.
We suffer slightly in dbench because we schedule more often
during write locks, but all other benchmarks so far are improved.

The current code relogs the entire inode every time during fsync log,
and it is much better suited to small files rather than large ones.
During my performance test, the fsync performace of large files sucks,
and we can ascribe this to the tremendous amount of csum infos of the
large ones, cause we have to flush all of these csum infos into log trees
even when there are only _one_ change in the whole file data. Apparently,
to optimize fsync, we need to create a filter to skip the unnecessary csum
ones, that is, the corresponding file data remains unchanged before this fsync.
Here I have some test results to show, I use sysbench to do "random write + fsync".

- Modify the patch address David Sterba's comment.
- Fix the bug of the cpu recursion spinlock, reported by Chris Mason
Changelog V1 -> V2:
- break up the global rb-tree, use a list to manage the delayed nodes,
which is created for every directory and file, and used to manage the
delayed directory name index items and the delayed inode item.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed nodes.
Compare with Ext3/4, the performance of file creation and deletion on btrfs
is very poor. the reason is that btrfs must do a lot of b+ tree insertions,
such as inode item, directory name item, directory name index and so on.
If we can do some delayed b+ tree insertion or deletion, we can improve the
performance, so we made this patch which implemented delayed directory name
index insertion/deletion and delayed inode update.
Implementation:
- introduce a delayed root object into the filesystem, that use two lists to
manage the delayed nodes which are created for every file/directory.
One is used to manage all the delayed nodes that have delayed items. And the
other is used to manage the delayed nodes which is waiting to be dealt with
by the work thread.
- Every delayed node has two rb-tree, one is used to manage the directory name
index which is going to be inserted into b+ tree, and the other is used to
manage the directory name index which is going to be deleted from b+ tree.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed operation. This worker is used
to deal with the works of the delayed directory name index items insertion
and deletion and the delayed inode update.
When the delayed items is beyond the lower limit, we create works for some
delayed nodes and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then
go back.
When the delayed items is beyond the upper bound, we create works for all
the delayed nodes that haven't been dealt with, and insert them into the work
queue of the worker, and then wait for that the untreated items is below some
threshold value.
- When we want to insert a directory name index into b+ tree, we just add the
information into the delayed inserting rb-tree.
And then we check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items
balance. (The balance policy is above.)
- When we want to delete a directory name index from the b+ tree, we search it
in the inserting rb-tree at first. If we look it up, just drop it. If not,
add the key of it into the delayed deleting rb-tree.
Similar to the delayed inserting rb-tree, we also check the number of the
delayed items and do delayed items balance.
(The same to inserting manipulation)
- When we want to update the metadata of some inode, we cached the data of the
inode into the delayed node. the worker will flush it into the b+ tree after
dealing with the delayed insertion and deletion.
- We will move the delayed node to the tail of the list after we access the
delayed node, By this way, we can cache more delayed items and merge more
inode updates.
- If we want to commit transaction, we will deal with all the delayed node.
- the delayed node will be freed when we free the btrfs inode.
- Before we log the inode items, we commit all the directory name index items
and the delayed inode update.
I did a quick test by the benchmark tool[1] and found we can improve the
performance of file creation by ~15%, and file deletion by ~20%.

This adds an initial implementation for scrub. It works quite
straightforward. The usermode issues an ioctl for each device in the
fs. For each device, it enumerates the allocated device chunks. For
each chunk, the contained extents are enumerated and the data checksums
fetched. The extents are read sequentially and the checksums verified.
If an error occurs (checksum or EIO), a good copy is searched for. If
one is found, the bad copy will be rewritten.
All enumerations happen from the commit roots. During a transaction
commit, the scrubs get paused and afterwards continue from the new
roots.

There's a potential problem in 32bit system when we exhaust 32bit inode
numbers and start to allocate big inode numbers, because btrfs uses
inode->i_ino in many places.
So here we always use BTRFS_I(inode)->location.objectid, which is an
u64 variable.
There are 2 exceptions that BTRFS_I(inode)->location.objectid !=
inode->i_ino: the btree inode (0 vs 1) and empty subvol dirs (256 vs 2),
and inode->i_ino will be used in those cases.
Another reason to make this change is I'm going to use a special inode
to save free ino cache, and the inode number must be > (u64)-256.

When we recover from crash via write-ahead log tree and process
the inode refs, for each btrfs_inode_ref item, we will
1) check if we already have a perfect match in fs/file tree, if
we have, then we're done.
2) search the corresponding back reference in fs/file tree, and
check all the names in this back reference to see if they are
also in the log to avoid conflict corners.
3) recover the logged inode refs to fs/file tree.
In current btrfs, however,
- for 2)'s check, once is enough, since the checked back reference
will remain unchanged after processing all the inode refs belonged
to the key.
- it has no need to do another 1) between 2) and 3).

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.

This work is in preperation for being able to set a different root as the
default mounting root.
There is currently a problem with how we mount subvolumes. We cannot currently
mount a subvolume of a subvolume, you can only mount subvolumes/snapshots of the
default subvolume. So say you take a snapshot of the default subvolume and call
it snap1, and then take a snapshot of snap1 and call it snap2, so now you have
/
/snap1
/snap1/snap2
as your available volumes. Currently you can only mount / and /snap1,
you cannot mount /snap1/snap2. To fix this problem instead of passing
subvolid=<name> you must pass in subvolid=<treeid>, where <treeid> is
the tree id that gets spit out via the subvolume listing you get from
the subvolume listing patches (btrfs filesystem list). This allows us
to mount /, /snap1 and /snap1/snap2 as the root volume.
In addition to the above, we also now read the default dir item in the
tree root to get the root key that it points to. For now this just
points at what has always been the default subvolme, but later on I plan
to change it to point at whatever root you want to be the new default
root, so you can just set the default mount and not have to mount with
-o subvolid=<treeid>. I tested this out with the above scenario and it
worked perfectly. Thanks,
mount -o subvol operates inside the selected subvolid. For example:
mount -o subvol=snap1,subvolid=256 /dev/xxx /mnt
/mnt will have the snap1 directory for the subvolume with id
256.
mount -o subvol=snap /dev/xxx /mnt
/mnt will be the snap directory of whatever the default subvolume
is.

Syncing the tree log is a 3 phase operation.
1) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for a given root.
2) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for the
tree of tree log roots.
3) write and wait for the super blocks (barriers here)
This isn't as efficient as it could be because there is
no requirement to wait for the blocks from step one to hit the disk
before we start writing the blocks from step two. This commit
changes the sequence so that we don't start waiting until
all the tree blocks from both steps one and two have been sent
to disk.
We do this by breaking up btrfs_write_wait_marked_extents into
two functions, which is trivial because it was already broken

rpm has a habit of running fdatasync when the file hasn't
changed. We already detect if a file hasn't been changed
in the current transaction but it might have been sent to
the tree-log in this transaction and not changed since
the last call to fsync.
In this case, we want to avoid a tree log sync, which includes
a number of synchronous writes and barriers. This commit
extends the existing tracking of the last transaction to change
a file to also track the last sub-transaction.

This patch optimizes the tree logging stuff so it doesn't always wait 1 jiffie
for new people to join the logging transaction if there is only ever 1 writer.
This helps a little bit with latency where we have something like RPM where it
will fdatasync every file it writes, and so waiting the 1 jiffie for every
fdatasync really starts to add up.

This patch gets rid of two limitations of async block group caching.
The old code delays handling pinned extents when block group is in
caching. To allocate logged file extents, the old code need wait
until block group is fully cached. To get rid of the limitations,
This patch introduces a data structure to track the progress of
caching. Base on the caching progress, we know which extents should
be added to the free space cache when handling the pinned extents.
The logged file extents are also handled in a similar way.
This patch also changes how pinned extents are tracked. The old
code uses one tree to track pinned extents, and copy the pinned
extents tree at transaction commit time. This patch makes it use
two trees to track pinned extents. One tree for extents that are
pinned in the running transaction, one tree for extents that can
be unpinned. At transaction commit time, we swap the two trees.

Data COW means that whenever we write to a file, we replace any old
extent pointers with new ones. There was a window where a readpage
might find the old extent pointers on disk and cache them in the
extent_map tree in ram in the middle of a given write replacing them.
Even though both the readpage and the write had their respective bytes
in the file locked, the extent readpage inserts may cover more bytes than
it had locked down.
This commit closes the race by keeping the new extent pinned in the extent
map tree until after the on-disk btree is properly setup with the new
extent pointers.

We are racy with async block caching and unpinning extents. This patch makes
things much less complicated by only unpinning the extent if the block group is
cached. We check the block_group->cached var under the block_group->lock spin
lock. If it is set to BTRFS_CACHE_FINISHED then we update the pinned counters,
and unpin the extent and add the free space back. If it is not set to this, we
start the caching of the block group so the next time we unpin extents we can
unpin the extent. This keeps us from racing with the async caching threads,
lets us kill the fs wide async thread counter, and keeps us from having to set
DELALLOC bits for every extent we hit if there are caching kthreads going.
One thing that needed to be changed was btrfs_free_super_mirror_extents. Now
instead of just looking for LOCKED extents, we also look for DIRTY extents,
since we could have left some extents pinned in the previous transaction that
will never get freed now that we are unmounting, which would cause us to leak
memory. So btrfs_free_super_mirror_extents has been changed to
btrfs_free_pinned_extents, and it will clear the extents locked for the super
mirror, and any remaining pinned extents that may be present. Thank you,

This patch moves the caching of the block group off to a kthread in order to
allow people to allocate sooner. Instead of blocking up behind the caching
mutex, we instead kick of the caching kthread, and then attempt to make an
allocation. If we cannot, we wait on the block groups caching waitqueue, which
the caching kthread will wake the waiting threads up everytime it finds 2 meg
worth of space, and then again when its finished caching. This is how I tested
the speedup from this
mkfs the disk
mount the disk
fill the disk up with fs_mark
unmount the disk
mount the disk
time touch /mnt/foo
Without my changes this took 11 seconds on my box, with these changes it now
takes 1 second.
Another change thats been put in place is we lock the super mirror's in the
pinned extent map in order to keep us from adding that stuff as free space when
caching the block group. This doesn't really change anything else as far as the
pinned extent map is concerned, since for actual pinned extents we use
EXTENT_DIRTY, but it does mean that when we unmount we have to go in and unlock
those extents to keep from leaking memory.
I've also added a check where when we are reading block groups from disk, if the
amount of space used == the size of the block group, we go ahead and mark the
block group as cached. This drastically reduces the amount of time it takes to
cache the block groups. Using the same test as above, except doing a dd to a
file and then unmounting, it used to take 33 seconds to umount, now it takes 3
seconds.
This version uses the commit_root in the caching kthread, and then keeps track
of how many async caching threads are running at any given time so if one of the
async threads is still running as we cross transactions we can wait until its
finished before handling the pinned extents. Thank you,

This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata.
Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER
BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS.
When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all
extents it points to are increased by one. At transaction commit time,
the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure,
and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts
and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0.
The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out,
and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that
are no longer referenced by the new btree root. This commit reduces the
transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records.
When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the
new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference
count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents
the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by
one.
This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference
counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd.
But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block.
This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref
item.
We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new
back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which
tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer
by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it
only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees.
This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these
fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow.
The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common
case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root,
and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference
on a given block.
This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached
inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached
inodes whose inode numbers within a given range.
This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data
structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one
is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are
referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref.
The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large
number of snapshots.
This is a very large commit and was written in a number of
pieces. But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were
squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a
bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

The fsync log has code to make sure all of the parents of a file are in the
log along with the file. It uses a minimal log of the parent directory
inodes, just enough to get the parent directory on disk.
If the transaction that originally created a file is fully on disk,
and the file hasn't been renamed or linked into other directories, we
can safely skip the parent directory walk. We know the file is on disk
somewhere and we can go ahead and just log that single file.
This is more important now because unrelated unlinks in the parent directory
might make us force a commit if we try to log the parent.

The tree logging code allows individual files or directories to be logged
without including operations on other files and directories in the FS.
It tries to commit the minimal set of changes to disk in order to
fsync the single file or directory that was sent to fsync or O_SYNC.
The tree logging code was allowing files and directories to be unlinked
if they were part of a rename operation where only one directory
in the rename was in the fsync log. This patch adds a few new rules
to the tree logging.
1) on rename or unlink, if the inode being unlinked isn't in the fsync
log, we must force a full commit before doing an fsync of the directory
where the unlink was done. The commit isn't done during the unlink,
but it is forced the next time we try to log the parent directory.
Solution: record transid of last unlink/rename per directory when the
directory wasn't already logged. For renames this is only done when
renaming to a different directory.
mkdir foo/some_dir
normal commit
rename foo/some_dir foo2/some_dir
mkdir foo/some_dir
fsync foo/some_dir/some_file
The fsync above will unlink the original some_dir without recording
it in its new location (foo2). After a crash, some_dir will be gone
unless the fsync of some_file forces a full commit
2) we must log any new names for any file or dir that is in the fsync
log. This way we make sure not to lose files that are unlinked during
the same transaction.
2a) we must log any new names for any file or dir during rename
when the directory they are being removed from was logged.
2a is actually the more important variant. Without the extra logging
a crash might unlink the old name without recreating the new one
3) after a crash, we must go through any directories with a link count
of zero and redo the rm -rf
mkdir f1/foo
normal commit
rm -rf f1/foo
fsync(f1)
The directory f1 was fully removed from the FS, but fsync was never
called on f1, only its parent dir. After a crash the rm -rf must
be replayed. This must be able to recurse down the entire
directory tree. The inode link count fixup code takes care of the
ugly details.

During log replay, inodes are copied from the log to the main filesystem
btrees. Sometimes they have a zero link count in the log but they actually
gain links during the replay or have some in the main btree.
This patch updates the link count to be at least one after copying the
inode out of the log. This makes sure the inode is deleted during an
iput while the rest of the replay code is still working on it.
The log replay has fixup code to make sure that link counts are correct
at the end of the replay, so we could use any non-zero number here and
it would work fine.

btrfs_mark_buffer dirty would set dirty bits in the extent_io tree
for the buffers it was dirtying. This may require a kmalloc and it
was not atomic. So, anyone who called btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty had to
set any btree locks they were holding to blocking first.
This commit changes dirty tracking for extent buffers to just use a flag
in the extent buffer. Now that we have one and only one extent buffer
per page, this can be safely done without losing dirty bits along the way.
This also introduces a path->leave_spinning flag that callers of
btrfs_search_slot can use to indicate they will properly deal with a
path returned where all the locks are spinning instead of blocking.

Most of the btrfs metadata operations can be protected by a spinlock,
but some operations still need to schedule.
So far, btrfs has been using a mutex along with a trylock loop,
most of the time it is able to avoid going for the full mutex, so
the trylock loop is a big performance gain.
This commit is step one for getting rid of the blocking locks entirely.
btrfs_tree_lock takes a spinlock, and the code explicitly switches
to a blocking lock when it starts an operation that can schedule.
We'll be able get rid of the blocking locks in smaller pieces over time.
Tracing allows us to find the most common cause of blocking, so we
can start with the hot spots first.
The basic idea is:
btrfs_tree_lock() returns with the spin lock held
btrfs_set_lock_blocking() sets the EXTENT_BUFFER_BLOCKING bit in
the extent buffer flags, and then drops the spin lock. The buffer is
still considered locked by all of the btrfs code.
If btrfs_tree_lock gets the spinlock but finds the blocking bit set, it drops
the spin lock and waits on a wait queue for the blocking bit to go away.
Much of the code that needs to set the blocking bit finishes without actually
blocking a good percentage of the time. So, an adaptive spin is still
used against the blocking bit to avoid very high context switch rates.
btrfs_clear_lock_blocking() clears the blocking bit and returns
with the spinlock held again.
btrfs_tree_unlock() can be called on either blocking or spinning locks,
it does the right thing based on the blocking bit.
ctree.c has a helper function to set/clear all the locked buffers in a
path as blocking.

To improve performance, btrfs_sync_log merges tree log sync
requests. But it wrongly merges sync requests for different
tree logs. If multiple tree logs are synced at the same time,
only one of them actually gets synced.
This patch has following changes to fix the bug:
Move most tree log related fields in btrfs_fs_info to
btrfs_root. This allows merging sync requests separately
for each tree log.
Don't insert root item into the log root tree immediately
after log tree is allocated. Root item for log tree is
inserted when log tree get synced for the first time. This
allows syncing the log root tree without first syncing all
log trees.

then updates corresponding root item in the log root tree;
sync the log root tree; then update the super block.

Each subvolume has an extent_state_tree used to mark metadata
that needs to be sent to disk while syncing the tree. This is
used in addition to the dirty bits on the pages themselves so that
a single subvolume can be sent to disk efficiently in disk order.
Normally this marking happens in btrfs_alloc_free_block, which also does
special recording of dirty tree blocks for the tree log roots.
Yan Zheng noticed that when the root of the log tree is allocated, it is added
to the wrong writeback list. The fix used here is to explicitly set

Btrfs stores checksums for each data block. Until now, they have
been stored in the subvolume trees, indexed by the inode that is
referencing the data block. This means that when we read the inode,
we've probably read in at least some checksums as well.
But, this has a few problems:
* The checksums are indexed by logical offset in the file. When
compression is on, this means we have to do the expensive checksumming
on the uncompressed data. It would be faster if we could checksum
the compressed data instead.
* If we implement encryption, we'll be checksumming the plain text and
storing that on disk. This is significantly less secure.
* For either compression or encryption, we have to get the plain text
back before we can verify the checksum as correct. This makes the raid
layer balancing and extent moving much more expensive.
* It makes the front end caching code more complex, as we have touch
the subvolume and inodes as we cache extents.
* There is potentitally one copy of the checksum in each subvolume
referencing an extent.
The solution used here is to store the extent checksums in a dedicated
tree. This allows us to index the checksums by phyiscal extent
start and length. It means:
* The checksum is against the data stored on disk, after any compression
or encryption is done.
* The checksum is stored in a central location, and can be verified without
following back references, or reading inodes.
This makes compression significantly faster by reducing the amount of
data that needs to be checksummed. It will also allow much faster
raid management code in general.
The checksums are indexed by a key with a fixed objectid (a magic value
in ctree.h) and offset set to the starting byte of the extent. This
allows us to copy the checksum items into the fsync log tree directly (or
any other tree), without having to invent a second format for them.

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.

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.

This is the same way the transaction code makes sure that all the
