A recent change enforces only one access point to each subvolume. The first
directory entry (the one added when the subvolume/snapshot was created) is
treated as valid access point, all other subvolume links are linked to dummy
empty directories. The dummy directories are temporary inodes that only in
memory, so we can not rename file into them.

For every hardlink in btrfs, there is a corresponding inode back
reference. All inode back references for hardlinks in a given
directory are stored in single b-tree item. The size of b-tree item
is limited by the size of b-tree leaf, so we can only create limited
number of hardlinks to a given file in a directory.
The original code lacks of the check, it oops if the number of
hardlinks goes over the limit. This patch fixes the issue by adding
check to btrfs_link and btrfs_rename.

btrfs allows subvolumes and snapshots anywhere in the directory tree.
If we snapshot a subvolume that contains a link to other subvolume
called subvolA, subvolA can be accessed through both the original
subvolume and the snapshot. This is similar to creating hard link to
directory, and has the very similar problems.
The aim of this patch is enforcing there is only one access point to
each subvolume. Only the first directory entry (the one added when
the subvolume/snapshot was created) is treated as valid access point.
The first directory entry is distinguished by checking root forward
reference. If the corresponding root forward reference is missing,
we know the entry is not the first one.
This patch also adds snapshot/subvolume rename support, the code
allows rename subvolume link across subvolumes.

When btrfs_get_extent is reading inline file items for readpage,
it needs to copy the inline extent into the page. If the
inline extent doesn't cover all of the page, that means there
is a hole in the file, or that our file is smaller than one
page.
readpage does zeroing for the case where the file is smaller than one
page, but nobody is currently zeroing for the case where there is
a hole after the inline item.
This commit changes btrfs_get_extent to zero fill the page past
the end of the inline item.

Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
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.

Btrfs writes go through delalloc to the data=ordered code. This
makes sure that all of the data is on disk before the metadata
that references it. The tracking means that we have to make sure
each page in an extent is fully written before we add that extent into
the on-disk btree.
This was done in the past by setting the EXTENT_ORDERED bit for the
range of an extent when it was added to the data=ordered code, and then
clearing the EXTENT_ORDERED bit in the extent state tree as each page
finished IO.
One of the reasons we had to do this was because sometimes pages are
magically dirtied without page_mkwrite being called. The EXTENT_ORDERED
bit is checked at writepage time, and if it isn't there, our page become
dirty without going through the proper path.
These bit operations make for a number of rbtree searches for each page,
and can cause considerable lock contention.
This commit switches from the EXTENT_ORDERED bit to use PagePrivate2.
As pages go into the ordered code, PagePrivate2 is set on each one.
This is a cheap operation because we already have all the pages locked
and ready to go.
As IO finishes, the PagePrivate2 bit is cleared and the ordered
accoutning is updated for each page.
At writepage time, if the PagePrivate2 bit is missing, we go into the
writepage fixup code to handle improperly dirtied pages.

This changes the btrfs code to find delalloc ranges in the extent state
tree to use the new state caching code from set/test bit. It reduces
one of the biggest causes of rbtree searches in the writeback path.
test_range_bit is also modified to take the cached state as a starting
point while searching.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
Many of the btrfs extent state tree users follow the same pattern.
They lock an extent range in the tree, do some operation and then
unlock.
This translates to at least 2 rbtree searches, and maybe more if they
are doing operations on the extent state tree. A locked extent
in the tree isn't going to be merged or changed, and so we can
safely return the extent state structure as a cached handle.
This changes set_extent_bit to give back a cached handle, and also
changes both set_extent_bit and clear_extent_bit to use the cached
handle if it is available.

There are two main users of the extent_map tree. The
first is regular file inodes, where it is evenly spread
between readers and writers.
The second is the chunk allocation tree, which maps blocks from
logical addresses to phyiscal ones, and it is 99.99% reads.
The mapping tree is a point of lock contention during heavy IO
workloads, so this commit switches things to a rw lock.

Node may not be inserted over existing node. This causes inode tree
corruption and I was seeing crashes in inode_tree_del which I can not
reproduce after this patch.
The other way to fix this would be to tie inode lifetime in the rbtree
with inode while not in freeing state. I had a look at this but it is
not so trivial at this point. At least this patch gets things working again.

Using Eric Sandeen's xfstest for fallocate, you can easily trigger a ENOSPC
panic on btrfs. This is because we do not account for data we may use when
doing the fallocate. This patch fixes the problem by properly reserving space,
and then just freeing it when we are done. The reservation stuff was made with
delalloc in mind, so its a little crude for this case, but it keeps the box

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.

Linus noticed the btrfs code to cache acls wasn't properly caching
a NULL acl when the inode didn't have any acls. This meant the common

kernel checked permissions (which is quite often).
This is a modified version of Linus' original patch:
Properly set initial acl fields to BTRFS_ACL_NOT_CACHED in the inode.
This forces an acl lookup when permission checks are done.
Fix btrfs_get_acl to avoid lookups and locking when the inode acls fields
are set to null.
Fix btrfs_get_acl to use the right return value from __btrfs_getxattr
when deciding to cache a NULL acl. It was storing a NULL acl when
__btrfs_getxattr return -ENOENT, but __btrfs_getxattr was actually returning
-ENODATA for this case.

The btrfs fallocate call takes an extent lock on the entire range
being fallocated, and then runs through insert_reserved_extent on each
extent as they are allocated.
The problem with this is that btrfs_drop_extents may decide to try
and take the same extent lock fallocate was already holding. The solution
used here is to push down knowledge of the range that is already locked
going into btrfs_drop_extents.
It turns out that at least one other caller had the same bug.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
Btrfs fallocate was incorrectly starting a transaction with a lock held
on the extent_io tree for the file, which could deadlock. Strictly
speaking it was using join_transaction which would be safe, but it is better
to move the transaction outside of the lock.
When preallocated extents are overwritten, btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty was
being called on an unlocked buffer. This was triggering an assertion and
oops because the lock is supposed to be held.
The bug was calling btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty on a leaf after btrfs_del_item had
been run. btrfs_del_item takes care of dirtying things, so the solution is a
to skip the btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty call in this case.

page_mkwrite is called with neither the page lock nor the ptl held. This
means a page can be concurrently truncated or invalidated out from
underneath it. Callers are supposed to prevent truncate races themselves,
however previously the only thing they can do in case they hit one is to
raise a SIGBUS. A sigbus is wrong for the case that the page has been
invalidated or truncated within i_size (eg. hole punched). Callers may
also have to perform memory allocations in this path, where again, SIGBUS
would be wrong.
The previous patch ("mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault")
made it possible to properly specify errors. Convert the generic buffer.c
code and btrfs to return sane error values (in the case of page removed
from pagecache, VM_FAULT_NOPAGE will cause the fault handler to exit
without doing anything, and the fault will be retried properly).
This fixes core code, and converts btrfs as a template/example. All other
filesystems defining their own page_mkwrite should be fixed in a similar
manner.

Renames and truncates are both common ways to replace old data with new
data. The filesystem can make an effort to make sure the new data is
on disk before actually replacing the old data.
This is especially important for rename, which many application use as
though it were atomic for both the data and the metadata involved. The
current btrfs code will happily replace a file that is fully on disk
with one that was just created and still has pending IO.
If we crash after transaction commit but before the IO is done, we'll end
up replacing a good file with a zero length file. The solution used
here is to create a list of inodes that need special ordering and force
them to disk before the commit is done. This is similar to the
ext3 style data=ordering, except it is only done on selected files.
Btrfs is able to get away with this because it does not wait on commits
very often, even for fsync (which use a sub-commit).
For renames, we order the file when it wasn't already
on disk and when it is replacing an existing file. Larger files
are sent to filemap_flush right away (before the transaction handle is
opened).
For truncates, we order if the file goes from non-zero size down to
zero size. This is a little different, because at the time of the
truncate the file has no dirty bytes to order. But, we flag the inode
so that it is added to the ordered list on close (via release method). We
also immediately add it to the ordered list of the current transaction
so that we can try to flush down any writes the application sneaks in
before commit.

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.

btrfs_mark_buffer dirty would set dirty bits in the extent_io tree

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.
Many of the btree search callers now expect spinning paths,
resulting in better btree concurrency overall.

To avoid deadlocks and reduce latencies during some critical operations, some
transaction writers are allowed to jump into the running transaction and make
it run a little longer, while others sit around and wait for the commit to
finish.
This is a bit unfair, especially when the callers that jump in do a bunch
of IO that makes all the others procs on the box wait. This commit
reduces the stalls this produces by pre-reading file extent pointers
during btrfs_finish_ordered_io before the transaction is joined.
It also tunes the drop_snapshot code to politely wait for transactions
that have started writing out their delayed refs to finish. This avoids
new delayed refs being flooded into the queue while we're trying to
close off the transaction.

This is a step in the direction of better -ENOSPC handling. Instead of
checking the global bytes counter we check the space_info bytes counters to
make sure we have enough space.
If we don't we go ahead and try to allocate a new chunk, and then if that fails
we return -ENOSPC. This patch adds two counters to btrfs_space_info,
bytes_delalloc and bytes_may_use.
bytes_delalloc account for extents we've actually setup for delalloc and will
be allocated at some point down the line.
bytes_may_use is to keep track of how many bytes we may use for delalloc at
some point. When we actually set the extent_bit for the delalloc bytes we
subtract the reserved bytes from the bytes_may_use counter. This keeps us from
not actually being able to allocate space for any delalloc bytes.

Every transaction in btrfs creates a new snapshot, and then schedules the
snapshot from the last transaction for deletion. Snapshot deletion
works by walking down the btree and dropping the reference counts
on each btree block during the walk.
If if a given leaf or node has a reference count greater than one,
the reference count is decremented and the subtree pointed to by that
node is ignored.
If the reference count is one, walking continues down into that node
or leaf, and the references of everything it points to are decremented.
The old code would try to work in small pieces, walking down the tree
until it found the lowest leaf or node to free and then returning. This
was very friendly to the rest of the FS because it didn't have a huge
impact on other operations.
But it wouldn't always keep up with the rate that new commits added new
snapshots for deletion, and it wasn't very optimal for the extent
allocation tree because it wasn't finding leaves that were close together
on disk and processing them at the same time.
This changes things to walk down to a level 1 node and then process it
in bulk. All the leaf pointers are sorted and the leaves are dropped
in order based on their extent number.
The extent allocation tree and commit code are now fast enough for
this kind of bulk processing to work without slowing the rest of the FS
down. Overall it does less IO and is better able to keep up with
snapshot deletions under high load.

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.

After btrfs_readdir has gone through all the directory items, it
sets the directory f_pos to the largest possible int. This way
applications that mix readdir with creating new files don't

It was a workaround for a bug in git, but the assumption was that if git
could make this looping mistake than it would be a common problem.
The largest possible int chosen was INT_LIMIT(typeof(file->f_pos),
and it is possible for that to be a larger number than 32 bit glibc
expects to come out of readdir.
This patches switches that to INT_LIMIT(off_t), which should keep

Swapfiles use bmap to build a list of extents belonging to the file,
and they assume these extents won't change over the life of the file.
They also use resulting list to do IO directly to the block device.
This causes problems for btrfs in a few ways:
btrfs returns logical block numbers through bmap, and these are not suitable
for IO. They might translate to different devices, raid etc.
COW means that file block mappings are going to change frequently.
Using swapfiles on btrfs will lead to corruption, so we're avoiding the
problem for now by dropping bmap support entirely. A later commit
will add fiemap support for people that really want to know how
a file is laid out.

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.

While building large bios in writepages, btrfs may end up waiting
for other page writeback to finish if WB_SYNC_ALL is used.
While it is waiting, the bio it is building has a number of pages with the
writeback bit set and they aren't getting to the disk any time soon. This
lowers the latencies of writeback in general by sending down the bio being
built before waiting for other pages.
The bio submission code tries to limit the total number of async bios in
flight by waiting when we're over a certain number of async bios. But,
the waits are happening while writepages is building bios, and this can easily
lead to stalls and other problems for people calling wait_on_page_writeback.
The current fix is to let the congestion tests take care of waiting.
sync() and others make sure to drain the current async requests to make
sure that everything that was pending when the sync was started really get
to disk. The code would drain pending requests both before and after
submitting a new request.
But, if one of the requests is waiting for page writeback to finish,
the draining waits might block that page writeback. This changes the
draining code to only wait after submitting the bio being processed.

path_for_snapshot can be an absolute or relative path. btrfsctl breaks it up

When reading compressed extents, try to put pages into the page cache

Add an async work queue to handle transformations at delayed allocation processing
time. Right now this is just compression. The workflow is:
1) Find offsets in the file marked for delayed allocation
2) Lock the pages
3) Lock the state bits
4) Call the async delalloc code
The async delalloc code clears the state lock bits and delalloc bits. It is
important this happens before the range goes into the work queue because
otherwise it might deadlock with other work queue items that try to lock
those extent bits.
The file pages are compressed, and if the compression doesn't work the
pages are written back directly.

Btrfs uses kernel threads to create async work queues for cpu intensive
operations such as checksumming and decompression. These work well,
but they make it difficult to keep IO order intact.
A single writepages call from pdflush or fsync will turn into a number
of bios, and each bio is checksummed in parallel. Once the checksum is
computed, the bio is sent down to the disk, and since we don't control
the order in which the parallel operations happen, they might go down to
the disk in almost any order.
The code deals with this somewhat by having deep work queues for a single
kernel thread, making it very likely that a single thread will process all
the bios for a single inode.
This patch introduces an explicitly ordered work queue. As work structs
are placed into the queue they are put onto the tail of a list. They have
three callbacks:
->func (cpu intensive processing here)
->ordered_func (order sensitive processing here)
->ordered_free (free the work struct, all processing is done)
The work struct has three callbacks. The func callback does the cpu intensive
work, and when it completes the work struct is marked as done.
Every time a work struct completes, the list is checked to see if the head
is marked as done. If so the ordered_func callback is used to do the
order sensitive processing and the ordered_free callback is used to do
any cleanup. Then we loop back and check the head of the list again.
This patch also changes the checksumming code to use the ordered workqueues.

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.

btrfs-vol -a /dev/xxx will zero the first and last two MB of the device.
The kernel code needs to wait for this IO to finish before it adds
the device.
btrfs metadata IO does not happen through the block device inode. A
separate address space is used, allowing the zero filled buffer heads in
the block device inode to be written to disk after FS metadata starts
going down to the disk via the btrfs metadata inode.
The end result is zero filled metadata blocks after adding new devices
into the filesystem.
The fix is a simple filemap_write_and_wait on the block device inode
before actually inserting it into the pool of available devices.

The code to update the on disk i_size happens before the
ordered_extent record is removed. So, it is possible for multiple
ordered_extent completion routines to run at the same time, and to
find each other in the ordered tree.
The end result is they both decide not to update disk_i_size, leaving
it too small. This temporary fix just puts the updates inside
the extent_mutex. A real solution would be stronger ordering of
disk_i_size updates against removing the ordered extent from the tree.

1) replace the per fs_info extent_io_tree that tracked free space with two
rb-trees per block group to track free space areas via offset and size. The
reason to do this is because most allocations come with a hint byte where to
start, so we can usually find a chunk of free space at that hint byte to satisfy
the allocation and get good space packing. If we cannot find free space at or
after the given offset we fall back on looking for a chunk of the given size as
close to that given offset as possible. When we fall back on the size search we
also try to find a slot as close to the size we want as possible, to avoid
breaking small chunks off of huge areas if possible.
2) remove the extent_io_tree that tracked the block group cache from fs_info and
replaced it with an rb-tree thats tracks block group cache via offset. also
added a per space_info list that tracks the block group cache for the particular
space so we can lookup related block groups easily.
3) cleaned up the allocation code to make it a little easier to read and a
little less complicated. Basically there are 3 steps, first look from our
provided hint. If we couldn't find from that given hint, start back at our
original search start and look for space from there. If that fails try to
allocate space if we can and start looking again. If not we're screwed and need
to start over again.
4) small fixes. there were some issues in volumes.c where we wouldn't allocate
the rest of the disk. fixed cow_file_range to actually pass the alloc_hint,
which has helped a good bit in making the fs_mark test I run have semi-normal
results as we run out of space. Generally with data allocations we don't track
where we last allocated from, so everytime we did a data allocation we'd search
through every block group that we have looking for free space. Now searching a
block group with no free space isn't terribly time consuming, it was causing a
slight degradation as we got more data block groups. The alloc_hint has fixed
this slight degredation and made things semi-normal.
There is still one nagging problem I'm working on where we will get ENOSPC when
there is definitely plenty of space. This only happens with metadata
allocations, and only when we are almost full. So you generally hit the 85%
mark first, but sometimes you'll hit the BUG before you hit the 85% wall. I'm
still tracking it down, but until then this seems to be pretty stable and make a
significant performance gain.

Large streaming reads make for large bios, which means each entry on the
list async work queues represents a large amount of data. IO
congestion throttling on the device was kicking in before the async
worker threads decided a single thread was busy and needed some help.
The end result was that a streaming read would result in a single CPU
running at 100% instead of balancing the work off to other CPUs.
This patch also changes the pre-IO checksum lookup done by reads to
work on a per-bio basis instead of a per-page. This results in many
extra btree lookups on large streaming reads. Doing the checksum lookup
right before bio submit allows us to reuse searches while processing
adjacent offsets.

The memory reclaiming issue happens when snapshot exists. In that

so they will remain in the cache until umount.
The patch adds a field to struct btrfs_leaf_ref to record create time. Besides,

To check whether a given file extent is referenced by multiple snapshots, the
checker walks down the fs tree through dead root and checks all tree blocks in
the path.
We can easily detect whether a given tree block is directly referenced by other
snapshot. We can also detect any indirect reference from other snapshot by
checking reference's generation. The checker can always detect multiple
references, but can't reliably detect cases of single reference. So btrfs may
do file data cow even there is only one reference.

A large reference cache is directly related to a lot of work pending

This changes the reference cache to make a single cache per root

Checksum items are not inserted into the tree until all of the io from a
given extent is complete. This means one dirty page from an extent may
be written, freed, and then read again before the entire extent is on disk
and the checksum item is inserted.
The checksums themselves are stored in the ordered extent so they can
be inserted in bulk when IO is complete. On read, if a checksum item isn't
found, the ordered extents were being searched for a checksum record.
This all worked most of the time, but the checksum insertion code tries
to reduce the number of tree operations by pre-inserting checksum items
based on i_size and a few other factors. This means the read code might
find a checksum item that hasn't yet really been filled in.
This commit changes things to check the ordered extents first and only
dive into the btree if nothing was found. This removes the need for
extra locking and is more reliable.

Stress testing was showing data checksum errors, most of which were caused
by a lookup bug in the extent_map tree. The tree was caching the last
pointer returned, and searches would check the last pointer first.
But, search callers also expect the search to return the very first
matching extent in the range, which wasn't always true with the last
pointer usage.
For now, the code to cache the last return value is just removed. It is
easy to fix, but I think lookups are rare enough that it isn't required anymore.

A struct btrfs_ordered_extent is allocated an inserted into a per-inode
rbtree to track the pending extents.
* As each page is written EXTENT_ORDERED is cleared on the bytes corresponding
to that page.
* When all of the bytes corresponding to a single struct btrfs_ordered_extent

The existing throttle mechanism was often not sufficient to prevent
new writers from coming in and making a given transaction run forever.
This adds an explicit wait at the end of most operations so they will

There is no wait inside file_write, inode updates, or cow filling, all which
have different deadlock possibilities.

Btrfs has been using workqueues to spread the checksumming load across
other CPUs in the system. But, workqueues only schedule work on the
same CPU that queued the work, giving them a limited benefit for systems with
higher CPU counts.
This code adds a generic facility to schedule work with pools of kthreads,
and changes the bio submission code to queue bios up. The queueing is
important to make sure large numbers of procs on the system don't
turn streaming workloads into random workloads by sending IO down
concurrently.
The end result of all of this is much higher performance (and CPU usage) when
doing checksumming on large machines. Two worker pools are created,
one for writes and one for endio processing. The two could deadlock if
we tried to service both from a single pool.

These ioctls let a user application hold a transaction open while it
performs a series of operations. A final ioctl does a sync on the fs
(closing the current transaction). This is the main requirement for
Ceph's OSD to be able to keep the data it's storing in a btrfs volume
consistent, and AFAICS it works just fine. The application would do
something like
fd = ::open("some/file", O_RDONLY);
::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_START);
/* do a bunch of stuff */
::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_END);
or just
::close(fd);
And to ensure it commits to disk,
::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_SYNC);
When a transaction is held open, the trans_handle is attached to the
struct file (via private_data) so that it will get cleaned up if the
process dies unexpectedly. A held transaction is also ended on fsync() to
avoid a deadlock.
A misbehaving application could also deliberately hold a transaction open,
effectively locking up the FS, so it may make sense to restrict something
like this to root or something.
