6a98c333ed GFS2: Fix fstrim boundary conditions
This patch correctly distinguishes two boundary conditions:

1. When the given range is entire within the unaccounted space between
   two rgrps, and
2. The range begins beyond the end of the filesystem

Also fix the unit of the returned value r.len (total trimming) to be in bytes 
instead of the (incorrect) 512 byte blocks

With this patch, GFS2 passes multiple iterations of all the relevant xfstests
(251, 260, 288) with different fs block sizes.

This patch calls get_write_access in a few functions. This

af21ca8ed5 GFS2: Use single-block reservations for directories
This patch changes the multi-block allocation code, such that
directory inodes only get a single block reserved in the bitmap.
That way, the bitmaps are more tightly packed together, and there
are fewer spans of free blocks for in-use block reservations.
This means it takes less time to find a free span of blocks in the
bitmap, which speeds things up. This increases the performance of
some workloads by almost 2X. In Nate's mockup.py script (which does
(1) create dir, (2) create dir in dir, (3) create file in that dir)
the test executes in 23 steps rather than 43 steps, a 47%
performance improvement.

fd4b4e042c GFS2: Clean up inode creation path
This patch cleans up the inode creation code path in GFS2. After the
Orlov allocator was merged, a number of potential improvements are
now possible, and this is a first set of these.

The quota handling is now updated so that it matches the point in
the code where the allocation takes place. This means that the one
exception in gfs2_alloc_blocks relating to quota is now no longer
required, and we can use the generic code everywhere.

In addition the call to figure out whether we need to allocate any
extra blocks in order to add a directory entry is moved higher up
gfs2_create_inode. This means that if it returns an error, we
can deal with that at a stage where it is easier to handle that case.
The returned status cannot change during the function since we hold
an exclusive lock on the directory.

Two calls to gfs2_rindex_update have been changed to one, again at
the top of gfs2_create_inode to simplify error handling.

The time stamps are also now initialised earlier in the creation
process, this is gradually moving towards being able to remove the
call to gfs2_refresh_inode in gfs2_inode_create once we have all the
fields covered.

b2c87cae0e GFS2: Issue discards in 512b sectors
This patch changes GFS2's discard issuing code so that it calls
function sb_issue_discard rather than blkdev_issue_discard. The
code was calling blkdev_issue_discard and specifying the correct
sector offset and sector size, but blkdev_issue_discard expects
these values to be in terms of 512 byte sectors, even if the native
sector size for the device is different. Calling sb_issue_discard
with the BLOCK size instead ensures the correct block-to-512b-sector
translation. I verified that "minlen" is specified in blocks, so
comparing it to a number of blocks is correct.

350a9b0a72 GFS2: Split gfs2_trans_add_bh() into two
There is little common content in gfs2_trans_add_bh() between the data
and meta classes by the time that the functions which it calls are

separate functions. Stage one is to introduce gfs2_trans_add_data()

and its dependent functions in order to clean up the code in this

13d2eb0129 GFS2: Reset rd_last_alloc when it reaches the end of the rgrp
In function rg_mblk_search, it's searching for multiple blocks in
a given state (e.g. "free"). If there's an active block reservation
its goal is the next free block of that. If the resource group
contains the dinode's goal block, that's used for the search. But
if neither is the case, it uses the rgrp's last allocated block.
That way, consecutive allocations appear after one another on media.
The problem comes in when you hit the end of the rgrp; it would never
start over and search from the beginning. This became a problem,
since if you deleted all the files and data from the rgrp, it would
never start over and find free blocks. So it had to keep searching
further out on the media to allocate blocks. This patch resets the
rd_last_alloc after it does an unsuccessful search at the end of
the rgrp.

9dbe9610b9 GFS2: Add Orlov allocator
Just like ext3, this works on the root directory and any directory
with the +T flag set. Also, just like ext3, any subdirectory created
in one of the just mentioned cases will be allocated to a random
resource group (GFS2 equivalent of a block group).

If you are creating a set of directories, each of which will contain a
job running on a different node, then by setting +T on the parent
directory before creating the subdirectories, each will land up in a
different resource group, and thus resource group contention between
nodes will be kept to a minimum.

bcd97c0630 GFS2: Add test for resource group congestion status
This patch uses information gathered by the recent glock statistics
patch in order to derrive a boolean verdict on the congestion
status of a resource group. This is then used when making decisions
on which resource group to choose during block allocation.

The aim is to avoid resource groups which are heavily contended
by other nodes, while still ensuring locality of access wherever
possible.

Once a reservation has been made in a particular resource group
we continue to use that resource group until a new reservation is
required. This should help to ensure that we do not change resource
groups too often.

a68a0a352a GFS2: Speed up gfs2_rbm_from_block

ff7f4cb461 GFS2: Consolidate free block searching functions
With the recently added block reservation code, an additional function
was added to search for free blocks. This had a restriction of only being
able to search for aligned extents of free blocks. As a result the
allocation patterns when reserving blocks were suboptimal when the
existing allocation of blocks for an inode was not aligned to the same
boundary.

This patch resolves that problem by adding the ability for gfs2_rbm_find
to search for extents of a particular minimum size. We can then use
gfs2_rbm_find for both looking for reservations, and also looking for
free blocks on an individual basis when we actually come to do the
allocation later on. As a result we only need a single set of code
to deal with both situations.

The function gfs2_rbm_from_block() is moved up rgrp.c so that it
occurs before all of its callers.

Many thanks are due to Bob for helping track down the final issue in
this patch. That fix to the rb_tree traversal and to not share
block reservations from a dirctory to its children is included here.

9e733d3923 GFS2: Improve block reservation tracing
This patch improves the tracing of block reservations by
removing some corner cases and also providing more useful
detail in the traces.

A new field is added to the reservation structure to contain
the inode number. This is used since in certain contexts it is
not possible to access the inode itself to obtain this information.
As a result we can then display the inode number for all tracepoints
and also in case we dump the resource group.

The "del" tracepoint operation has been removed. This could be called
with the reservation rgrp set to NULL. That resulted in not printing
the device number, and thus making the information largely useless
anyway. Also, the conditional on the rgrp being NULL can then be
removed from the tracepoint. After this change, all the block
reservation tracepoint calls will be called with the rgrp information.

The existing ins,clm and tdel calls to the block reservation tracepoint
are sufficient to track the entire life of the block reservation.

In gfs2_block_alloc() the error detection is updated to print out
the inode number of the problematic inode. This can then be compared
against the information in the glock dump,tracepoints, etc.

gfs2_inplace_reserve() would have failed. So if we are left with only

5b924ae2dc GFS2: Replace rgblk_search with gfs2_rbm_find
This is part of a series of patches which are introducing the
gfs2_rbm structure throughout the block allocation code. The
main aim of this part is to create a search function which can
deal directly with struct gfs2_rbm. In this case it specifies
the initial position at which to start the search and also the
point at which the search terminates.

The net result of this is to clean up the search code and make
it rather more readable, and the various possible exceptions which
may occur during the search are partitioned into their own functions.

There are some bug fixes too. We should not be checking the reservations
while allocating extents - the time for that is when we are searching
for where to put the extent, not when we've already made that decision.

Also, rgblk_search had two uses, and in only one of those cases did
it make sense to check for reservations. This is fixed in the new
gfs2_rbm_find function, which has a cleaner interface.

The reservation checking has been improved by always checking for
contiguous reservations, and returning the first free block after
all contiguous reservations. This is done under the spin lock to
ensure consistancy of the tree.

The allocation of extents is now in all cases done by the existing
allocation code, and if there is an active reservation, that is updated
after the fact. Again this is done under the spin lock, since it entails
changing the lookup key for the reservation in question.

4a993fb150 GFS2: Add structure to contain rgrp, bitmap, offset tuple
This patch introduces a new structure, gfs2_rbm, which is a
tuple of a resource group, a bitmap within the resource group
and an offset within that bitmap. This is designed to make
manipulating these sets of variables easier. There is also a
new helper function which converts this representation back
to a disk block address.

In addition, the rbtree nodes which are used for the reservations
were not being correctly initialised, which is now fixed. Also,
the tracing was not passing through the inode where it should
have been. That is mostly fixed aside from one corner case. This
needs to be revisited since there can also be a NULL rgrp in
some cases which results in the device being incorrect in the
trace.

This is intended to be the first step towards cleaning up some
of the allocation code, and some further bug fixes.

71f890f7f7 GFS2: Remove rs_requested field from reservations
The rs_requested field is left over from the original allocation
code, however this should have been a parameter passed to the
various functions from gfs2_inplace_reserve() and not a member of the
reservation structure as the value is not required after the
initial allocation.

This also helps simplify the code since we no longer need to set
the rs_requested to zero. Also the gfs2_inplace_release()
function can also be simplified since the reservation structure
will always be defined when it is called, and the only remaining
task is to unlock the rgrp if required. It can also now be
called unconditionally too, resulting in a further simplification.

62e252eeef GFS2: Take account of blockages when using reserved blocks
The claim_reserved_blks() function was not taking account of
the possibility of "blockages" while performing allocation.
This can be caused by another node allocating something in
the same extent which has been reserved locally.

This patch tests for this condition and then skips the remainder
of the reservation in this case. This is a relatively rare event,
so that it should not affect the general performance improvement
which the block reservations provide.

The claim_reserved_blks() function also appears not to be able
to deal with reservations which cross bitmap boundaries, but
that can be dealt with in a future patch since we don't generate
boundary crossing reservations currently.

8e2e004735 GFS2: Reduce file fragmentation
This patch reduces GFS2 file fragmentation by pre-reserving blocks. The
resulting improved on disk layout greatly speeds up operations in cases
which would have resulted in interlaced allocation of blocks previously.
A typical example of this is 10 parallel dd processes, each writing to a
file in a common dirctory.

The implementation uses an rbtree of reservations attached to each
resource group (and each inode).

90306c41dc GFS2: Use lvbs for storing rgrp information with mount option
Instead of reading in the resource groups when gfs2 is checking
for free space to allocate from, gfs2 can store the necessary infromation
in the resource group's lvb.  Also, instead of searching for unlinked
inodes in every resource group that's checked for free space, gfs2 can
store the number of unlinked but inodes in the lvb, and only check for
unlinked inodes if it will find some.

The first time a resource group is locked, the lvb must initialized.
Since this involves counting the unlinked inodes in the resource group,
this takes a little extra time.  But after that, if the resource group
is locked with GL_SKIP, the buffer head won't be read in unless it's
actually needed.

Enabling the resource groups lvbs is done via the rgrplvb mount option.  If
this option isn't set, the lvbs will still be set and updated, but they won't
be verfied or used by the filesystem.  To safely turn on this option, all of
the nodes mounting the filesystem must be running code with this patch, and
the filesystem must have been completely unmounted since they were updated.

0a305e4960 GFS2: Extend the life of the reservations
This patch lengthens the lifespan of the reservations structure for
inodes. Before, they were allocated and deallocated for every write
operation. With this patch, they are allocated when the first write
occurs, and deallocated when the last process closes the file.
It's more efficient to do it this way because it saves GFS2 a lot of
unnecessary allocates and frees. It also gives us more flexibility
for the future: (1) we can now fold the qadata structure back into
the structure and save those alloc/frees, (2) we can use this for
multi-block reservations.

41db1ab9be GFS2: Add rgrp information to block_alloc trace point
This is a second attempt at a patch that adds rgrp information to the
block allocation trace point for GFS2. As suggested, the patch was
modified to list the rgrp information _after_ the fields that exist today.

Again, the reason for this patch is to allow us to trace and debug
problems with the block reservations patch, which is still in the works.
We can debug problems with reservations if we can see what block allocations
result from the block reservations. It may also be handy in figuring out
if there are problems in rgrp free space accounting. In other words,
we can use it to track the rgrp and its free space along side the allocations
that are taking place.
