1b16da77f9 ext4: teach ext4_ext_split to calculate extents efficiently
Make ext4_ext_split() get extents to be moved by calculating in a statement
instead of counting in a loop.

556b27abf7 ext4: do not normalize block requests from fallocate()
Currently, an fallocate request of size slightly larger than a power of
2 is turned into two block requests, each a power of 2, with the extra
blocks pre-allocated for future use. When an application calls
fallocate, it already has an idea about how large the file may grow so
there is usually little benefit to reserve extra blocks on the
preallocation list. This reduces disk fragmentation.

Tested: fsstress. Also verified manually that fallocat'ed files are
contiguously laid out with this change (whereas without it they begin at
power-of-2 boundaries, leaving blocks in between). CPU usage of
fallocate is not appreciably higher.  In a tight fallocate loop, CPU
usage hovers between 5%-8% with this change, and 5%-7% without it.

Using a simulated file system aging program which the file system to
70%, the percentage of free extents larger than 8MB (as measured by
e2freefrag) increased from 38.8% without this change, to 69.4% with
this change.

a4bb6b64e3 ext4: enable "punch hole" functionality
This patch adds new routines: "ext4_punch_hole" "ext4_ext_punch_hole"
and "ext4_ext_check_cache"

fallocate has been modified to call ext4_punch_hole when the punch hole
flag is passed.  At the moment, we only support punching holes in
extents, so this routine is pretty much a wrapper for the ext4_ext_punch_hole
routine.

The ext4_ext_punch_hole routine first completes all outstanding writes
with the associated pages, and then releases them.  The unblock
aligned data is zeroed, and all blocks in between are punched out.

The ext4_ext_check_cache routine is very similar to ext4_ext_in_cache
except it accepts a ext4_ext_cache parameter instead of a ext4_extent
parameter.  This routine is used by ext4_ext_punch_hole to check and
see if a block in a hole that has been cached.  The ext4_ext_cache
parameter is necessary because the members ext4_extent structure are
not large enough to hold a 32 bit value.  The existing
ext4_ext_in_cache routine has become a wrapper to this new function.

e861304b8e ext4: add "punch hole" flag to ext4_map_blocks()
This patch adds a new flag to ext4_map_blocks() that specifies the
given range of blocks should be punched out.  Extents are first
converted to uninitialized extents before they are punched
out. Because punching a hole may require that the extent be split, it
is possible that the splitting may need more blocks than are
available.  To deal with this, use of reserved blocks are enabled to
allow the split to proceed.

The routine then returns the number of blocks successfully
punched out.

d583fb87a3 ext4: punch out extents
This patch modifies the truncate routines to support hole punching
Below is a brief summary of the patches changes:

- Added end param to ext_ext4_rm_leaf
        This function has been modified to accept an end parameter
        which enables it to punch holes in leafs instead of just
        truncating them.

- Implemented the "remove head" case in the ext_remove_blocks routine
        This routine is used by ext_ext4_rm_leaf to remove the tail
        of an extent during a truncate.  The new ext_ext4_rm_leaf
        routine will now also use it to remove the head of an extent in the
        case that the hole covers a region of blocks at the beginning
        of an extent.

- Added "end" param to ext4_ext_remove_space routine
        This function has been modified to accept a stop parameter, which
        is passed through to ext4_ext_rm_leaf.

55f020db66 ext4: add flag to ext4_has_free_blocks
This patch adds an allocation request flag to the ext4_has_free_blocks
function which enables the use of reserved blocks.  This will allow a
punch hole to proceed even if the disk is full.  Punching a hole may
require additional blocks to first split the extents.

Because ext4_has_free_blocks is a low level function, the flag needs
to be passed down through several functions listed below:

ext4_ext_insert_extent
ext4_ext_create_new_leaf
ext4_ext_grow_indepth
ext4_ext_split
ext4_ext_new_meta_block
ext4_mb_new_blocks

b221349fa8 ext4: fix ext4_ext_fiemap_cb() to handle blocks before request range correctly
To get delayed-extent information, ext4_ext_fiemap_cb() looks up
pagecache, it thus collects information starting from a page's
head block.

If blocksize < pagesize, the beginning blocks of a page may lies
before the request range. So ext4_ext_fiemap_cb() should proceed
ignoring them, because they has been handled before. If no mapped
buffer in the range is found in the 1st page, we need to look up
the 2nd page, otherwise delayed-extents after a hole will be ignored.

Without this patch, xfstests 225 will hung on ext4 with 1K block.

e9e3bcecf4 ext4: serialize unaligned asynchronous DIO
ext4 has a data corruption case when doing non-block-aligned
asynchronous direct IO into a sparse file, as demonstrated
by xfstest 240.

The root cause is that while ext4 preallocates space in the
hole, mappings of that space still look "new" and 
dio_zero_block() will zero out the unwritten portions.  When
more than one AIO thread is going, they both find this "new"
block and race to zero out their portion; this is uncoordinated
and causes data corruption.

Dave Chinner fixed this for xfs by simply serializing all
unaligned asynchronous direct IO.  I've done the same here.
The difference is that we only wait on conversions, not all IO.
This is a very big hammer, and I'm not very pleased with
stuffing this into ext4_file_write().  But since ext4 is
DIO_LOCKING, we need to serialize it at this high level.

I tried to move this into ext4_ext_direct_IO, but by then
we have the i_mutex already, and we will wait on the
work queue to do conversions - which must also take the
i_mutex.  So that won't work.

This was originally exposed by qemu-kvm installing to
a raw disk image with a normal sector-63 alignment.  I've
tested a backport of this patch with qemu, and it does
avoid the corruption.  It is also quite a lot slower
(14 min for package installs, vs. 8 min for well-aligned)
but I'll take slow correctness over fast corruption any day.

Mingming suggested that we can track outstanding
conversions, and wait on those so that non-sparse
files won't be affected, and I've implemented that here;
unaligned AIO to nonsparse files won't take a perf hit.

2fe17c1075 fallocate should be a file operation
Currently all filesystems except XFS implement fallocate asynchronously,
while XFS forced a commit.  Both of these are suboptimal - in case of O_SYNC
I/O we really want our allocation on disk, especially for the !KEEP_SIZE
case where we actually grow the file with user-visible zeroes.  On the
other hand always commiting the transaction is a bad idea for fast-path
uses of fallocate like for example in recent Samba versions.   Given
that block allocation is a data plane operation anyway change it from
an inode operation to a file operation so that we have the file structure
available that lets us check for O_SYNC.

This also includes moving the code around for a few of the filesystems,
and remove the already unnedded S_ISDIR checks given that we only wire
up fallocate for regular files.

me.

3889fd57ea ext4: flush the i_completed_io_list during ext4_truncate
Ted first found the bug when running 2.6.36 kernel with dioread_nolock
mount option that xfstests #13 complained about wrong file size during fsck.
However, the bug exists in the older kernels as well although it is
somehow harder to trigger.

The problem is that ext4_end_io_work() can happen after we have truncated an
inode to a smaller size. Then when ext4_end_io_work() calls 
ext4_convert_unwritten_extents(), we may reallocate some blocks that have 
been truncated, so the inode size becomes inconsistent with the allocated
blocks. 

The following patch flushes the i_completed_io_list during truncate to reduce 
the risk that some pending end_io requests are executed later and convert 
already truncated blocks to initialized. 

Note that although the fix helps reduce the problem a lot there may still 
be a race window between vmtruncate() and ext4_end_io_work(). The fundamental
problem is that if vmtruncate() is called without either i_mutex or i_alloc_sem
held, it can race with an ongoing write request so that the io_end request is
processed later when the corresponding blocks have been truncated.

Ted and I have discussed the problem offline and we saw a few ways to fix
the race completely:

a) We guarantee that i_mutex lock and i_alloc_sem write lock are both hold 
whenever vmtruncate() is called. The i_mutex lock prevents any new write
requests from entering writeback and the i_alloc_sem prevents the race
from ext4_page_mkwrite(). Currently we hold both locks if vmtruncate()
is called from do_truncate(), which is probably the most common case.
However, there are places where we may call vmtruncate() without holding
either i_mutex or i_alloc_sem. I would like to ask for other people's
opinions on what locks are expected to be held before calling vmtruncate().
There seems a disagreement among the callers of that function.

b) We change the ext4 write path so that we change the extent tree to contain 
the newly allocated blocks and update i_size both at the same time --- when 
the write of the data blocks is completed.

c) We add some additional locking to synchronize vmtruncate() and 
ext4_end_io_work(). This approach may have performance implications so we
need to be careful.

All of the above proposals may require more substantial changes, so
we may consider to take the following patch as a bandaid.

b05e6ae58a ext4: drop ec_type from the ext4_ext_cache structure
We can encode the ec_type information by using ee_len == 0 to denote
EXT4_EXT_CACHE_NO, ee_start == 0 to denote EXT4_EXT_CACHE_GAP, and if
neither is true, then the cache type must be EXT4_EXT_CACHE_EXTENT.
This allows us to reduce the size of ext4_ext_inode by another 8
bytes.  (ec_type is 4 bytes, plus another 4 bytes of padding)

01f49d0b9d ext4: use ext4_lblk_t instead of sector_t for logical blocks
This fixes a number of places where we used sector_t instead of
ext4_lblk_t for logical blocks, which for ext4 are still 32-bit data
types.  No point wasting space in the ext4_inode_info structure, and
requiring 64-bit arithmetic on 32-bit systems, when it isn't
necessary.

ad4fb9cafe ext4: fix 32bit overflow in ext4_ext_find_goal()
ext4_ext_find_goal() returns an ideal physical block number that the block
allocator tries to allocate first. However, if a required file offset is
smaller than the existing extent's one, ext4_ext_find_goal() returns
a wrong block number because it may overflow at
"block - le32_to_cpu(ex->ee_block)". This patch fixes the problem.

ext4_ext_find_goal() will also return a wrong block number in case
a file offset of the existing extent is too big. In this case,
the ideal physical block number is fixed in ext4_mb_initialize_context(),
so it's no problem.

reproduce:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/mp1/tmp bs=127M count=1 oflag=sync
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/mp1/file bs=512K count=1 seek=1 oflag=sync

It turns out we have several problems with how EOFBLOCKS_FL is
handled.  First of all, there was a fencepost error where we were not
clearing the EOFBLOCKS_FL when fill in the last uninitialized block,
but rather when we allocate the next block _after_ the uninitalized
block.  Secondly we were not testing to see if we needed to clear the
EOFBLOCKS_FL when writing to the file O_DIRECT or when were converting
an uninitialized block (which is the most common case).

786ec7915e ext4: Clear the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag only when warranted
Dimitry Monakhov discovered an edge case where it was possible for the
EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag could get cleared unnecessarily.  This is true;
I have a test case that can be exercised via downloading and
decompressing the file:

wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/ext4-testcases/eofblocks-fl-test-case.img.bz2
bunzip2 eofblocks-fl-test-case.img
dd if=/dev/zero of=eofblocks-fl-test-case.img bs=1k seek=17925 bs=1k count=1 conv=notrunc

However, triggering it in real life is highly unlikely since it
requires an extremely fragmented sparse file with a hole in exactly
the right place in the extent tree.  (It actually took quite a bit of
work to generate this test case.)  Still, it's nice to get even
extreme corner cases to be correct, so this patch makes sure that we
don't clear the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL incorrectly even in this corner
case.
