089e77e10d btrfs: convert btrfs_delayed_item.refs from atomic_t to refcount_t
refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental
refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free
situations.

2ff7e61e0d btrfs: take an fs_info directly when the root is not used otherwise
There are loads of functions in btrfs that accept a root parameter
but only use it to obtain an fs_info pointer.  Let's convert those to

d2fbb2b589 btrfs: increment ctx->pos for every emitted or skipped dirent in readdir
If we process the last item in the leaf and hit an I/O error while
reading the next leaf, we return -EIO without having adjusted the
position.  Since we have emitted dirents, getdents() will return
the byte count to the user instead of the error.  Subsequent callers
will emit the last successful dirent again, and return -EIO again,
with the same result.  Callers loop forever.

Instead, if we always increment ctx->pos after emitting or skipping
the dirent, we'll be sure that we won't hit the same one again.  When
we go to process the next leaf, we won't have emitted any dirents
and the -EIO will be returned to the user properly.  We also don't
need to track if we've emitted a dirent already or if we've changed
the position yet.

02dbfc99b4 Btrfs: fix ->iterate_shared() by upgrading i_rwsem for delayed nodes
Commit fe742fd4f9 ("Revert "btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared()"")
backed out the conversion to ->iterate_shared() for Btrfs because the
delayed inode handling in btrfs_real_readdir() is racy. However, we can
still do readdir in parallel if there are no delayed nodes.

This is a temporary fix which upgrades the shared inode lock to an
exclusive lock only when we have delayed items until we come up with a
more complete solution. While we're here, rename the
btrfs_{get,put}_delayed_items functions to make it very clear that
they're just for readdir.

Tested with xfstests and by doing a parallel kernel build:

	while make tinyconfig && make -j4 && git clean dqfx; do
		:
	done

along with a bunch of parallel finds in another shell:

	while true; do
		for ((i=0; i<4; i++)); do
			find . >/dev/null &
		done
		wait
	done

bc4ef7592f btrfs: properly set the termination value of ctx->pos in readdir
The value of ctx->pos in the last readdir call is supposed to be set to
INT_MAX due to 32bit compatibility, unless 'pos' is intentially set to a
larger value, then it's LLONG_MAX.

There's a report from PaX SIZE_OVERFLOW plugin that "ctx->pos++"
overflows (https://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4284), on a
64bit arch, where the value is 0x7fffffffffffffff ie. LLONG_MAX before
the increment.

We can get to that situation like that:

* emit all regular readdir entries
* still in the same call to readdir, bump the last pos to INT_MAX
* next call to readdir will not emit any entries, but will reach the
  bump code again, finds pos to be INT_MAX and sets it to LLONG_MAX

Normally this is not a problem, but if we call readdir again, we'll find
'pos' set to LLONG_MAX and the unconditional increment will overflow.

The report from Victor at
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/49500) with debugging
print shows that pattern:

The jump from 7fffffff to 7fffffffffffffff happens when new dir entries
are not yet synced and are processed from the delayed list. Then the code
could go to the bump section again even though it might not emit any new
dir entries from the delayed list.

The fix avoids entering the "bump" section again once we've finished
emitting the entries, both for synced and delayed entries.

67de11769b Btrfs: introduce the delayed inode ref deletion for the single link inode
The inode reference item is close to inode item, so we insert it simultaneously
with the inode item insertion when we create a file/directory.. In fact, we also
can handle the inode reference deletion by the same way. So we made this patch to
introduce the delayed inode reference deletion for the single link inode(At most
case, the file doesn't has hard link, so we don't take the hard link into account).

This function is based on the delayed inode mechanism. After applying this patch,
we can reduce the time of the file/directory deletion by ~10%.

de3cb945db Btrfs: improve the delayed inode throttling
The delayed inode code batches up changes to the btree in hopes of doing
them in bulk.  As the changes build up, processes kick off worker
threads and wait for them to make progress.

The current code kicks off an async work queue item for each delayed
node, which creates a lot of churn.  It also uses a fixed 1 HZ waiting
period for the throttle, which allows us to build a lot of pending
work and can slow down the commit.

This changes us to watch a sequence counter as it is bumped during the
operations.  We kick off fewer work items and have each work item do
more work.

We're running into having 50-100 orphans left over with xfstests 83

96c3f4331a Btrfs: flush delayed inodes if we're short on space
Those crazy gentoo guys have been complaining about ENOSPC errors on their
portage volumes.  This is because doing things like untar tends to create
lots of new files which will soak up all the reservation space in the
delayed inodes.  Usually this gets papered over by the fact that we will try
and commit the transaction, however if this happens in the wrong spot or we
choose not to commit the transaction you will be screwed.  So add the
ability to expclitly flush delayed inodes to free up space.  Please test
this out guys to make sure it works since as usual I cannot reproduce.
Thanks,

e999376f09 Btrfs: avoid delayed metadata items during commits
Snapshot creation has two phases.  One is the initial snapshot setup,
and the second is done during commit, while nobody is allowed to modify
the root we are snapshotting.

The delayed metadata insertion code can break that rule, it does a
delayed inode update on the inode of the parent of the snapshot,
and delayed directory item insertion.

This makes sure to run the pending delayed operations before we
record the snapshot root, which avoids corruptions.

16cdcec736 btrfs: implement delayed inode items operation
Changelog V5 -> V6:
- Fix oom when the memory load is high, by storing the delayed nodes into the
  root's radix tree, and letting btrfs inodes go.

Changelog V4 -> V5:
- Fix the race on adding the delayed node to the inode, which is spotted by
  Chris Mason.
- Merge Chris Mason's incremental patch into this patch.
- Fix deadlock between readdir() and memory fault, which is reported by
  Itaru Kitayama.

Changelog V3 -> V4:
- Fix nested lock, which is reported by Itaru Kitayama, by updating space cache
  inode in time.

Changelog V2 -> V3:
- Fix the race between the delayed worker and the task which does delayed items
  balance, which is reported by Tsutomu Itoh.
- 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%.
