c3027eb552 Btrfs: Add inode sequence number for NFS and reserved space in a few structs
This adds a sequence number to the btrfs inode that is increased on
every update.  NFS will be able to use that to detect when an inode has
changed, without relying on inaccurate time fields.

While we're here, this also:

Puts reserved space into the super block and inode

Adds a log root transid to the super so we can pick the newest super
based on the fsync log as well as the main transaction ID.  For now
the log root transid is always zero, but that'll get fixed.

Adds a starting offset to the dev_item.  This will let us do better
alignment calculations if we know the start of a partition on the disk.

934d375bac Btrfs: Use map_private_extent_buffer during generic_bin_search
It is possible that generic_bin_search will be called on a tree block
that has not been locked.  This happens because cache_block_block skips
locking on the tree blocks.

Since the tree block isn't locked, we aren't allowed to change
the extent_buffer->map_token field.  Using map_private_extent_buffer
avoids any changes to the internal extent buffer fields.

a512bbf855 Btrfs: superblock duplication
This patch implements superblock duplication. Superblocks
are stored at offset 16K, 64M and 256G on every devices.
Spaces used by superblocks are preserved by the allocator,
which uses a reverse mapping function to find the logical
addresses that correspond to superblocks. Thank you,

d20f7043fa Btrfs: move data checksumming into a dedicated tree
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.

f2b636e80d Btrfs: add support for compat flags to btrfs
This adds the necessary disk format for handling compatibility flags
in the future to handle disk format changes.  We have a compat_flags,
compat_ro_flags and incompat_flags set for the super block.  Compat
flags will be to hold the features that are compatible with older
versions of btrfs, compat_ro flags have features that are compatible
with older versions of btrfs if the fs is mounted read only, and
incompat_flags has features that are incompatible with older versions
of btrfs.  This also axes the compat_flags field for the inode and
just makes the flags field a 64bit field, and changes the root item
flags field to 64bit.

07103a3cdb Btrfs: fix free space accounting when unpinning extents
This patch fixes what I hope is the last early ENOSPC bug left.  I did not know
that pinned extents would merge into one big extent when inserted on to the
pinned extent tree, so I was adding free space to a block group that could
possibly span multiple block groups.

This is a big issue because first that space doesn't exist in that block group,
and second we won't actually use that space because there are a bunch of other
checks to make sure we're allocating within the constraints of the block group.

This patch fixes the problem by adding the btrfs_add_free_space to
btrfs_update_pinned_extents which makes sure we are adding the appropriate
amount of free space to the appropriate block group.  Thanks much to Lee Trager
for running my myriad of debug patches to help me track this problem down.

d2c3f4f695 Btrfs: Avoid writeback stalls
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.

3de4586c52 Btrfs: Allow subvolumes and snapshots anywhere in the directory tree
Before, all snapshots and subvolumes lived in a single flat directory.  This
was awkward and confusing because the single flat directory was only writable
with the ioctls.

This commit changes the ioctls to create subvols and snapshots at any
point in the directory tree.  This requires making separate ioctls for
snapshot and subvol creation instead of a combining them into one.

The subvol ioctl does:

btrfsctl -S subvol_name parent_dir

After the ioctl is done subvol_name lives inside parent_dir.

The snapshot ioctl does:

btrfsctl -s path_for_snapshot root_to_snapshot

path_for_snapshot can be an absolute or relative path.  btrfsctl breaks it up
into directory and basename components.

root_to_snapshot can be any file or directory in the FS.  The snapshot
is taken of the entire root where that file lives.

e3e469f86e Btrfs: fix free space leak
In my batch delete/update/insert patch I introduced a free space leak.  The
extent that we do the original search on in free_extents is never pinned, so we
always update the block saying that it has free space, but the free space never
actually gets added to the free space tree, since op->del will always be 0 and
it's never actually added to the pinned extents tree.

This patch fixes this problem by making sure we call pin_down_bytes on the
pending extent op and set op->del to the return value of pin_down_bytes so
update_block_group is called with the right value.  This seems to fix the case
where we were getting ENOSPC when there was plenty of space available.

8f7b0ba1c8 Fix inotify watch removal/umount races
Inotify watch removals suck violently.

To kick the watch out we need (in this order) inode->inotify_mutex and
ih->mutex.  That's fine if we have a hold on inode; however, for all
other cases we need to make damn sure we don't race with umount.  We can
*NOT* just grab a reference to a watch - inotify_unmount_inodes() will
happily sail past it and we'll end with reference to inode potentially
outliving its superblock.

Ideally we just want to grab an active reference to superblock if we
can; that will make sure we won't go into inotify_umount_inodes() until
we are done.  Cleanup is just deactivate_super().

However, that leaves a messy case - what if we *are* racing with
umount() and active references to superblock can't be acquired anymore?
We can bump ->s_count, grab ->s_umount, which will almost certainly wait
until the superblock is shut down and the watch in question is pining
for fjords.  That's fine, but there is a problem - we might have hit the
window between ->s_active getting to 0 / ->s_count - below S_BIAS (i.e.
the moment when superblock is past the point of no return and is heading
for shutdown) and the moment when deactivate_super() acquires
->s_umount.

We could just do drop_super() yield() and retry, but that's rather
antisocial and this stuff is luser-triggerable.  OTOH, having grabbed
->s_umount and having found that we'd got there first (i.e.  that
->s_root is non-NULL) we know that we won't race with
inotify_umount_inodes().

So we could grab a reference to watch and do the rest as above, just
with drop_super() instead of deactivate_super(), right? Wrong.  We had
to drop ih->mutex before we could grab ->s_umount.  So the watch
could've been gone already.

That still can be dealt with - we need to save watch->wd, do idr_find()
and compare its result with our pointer.  If they match, we either have
the damn thing still alive or we'd lost not one but two races at once,
the watch had been killed and a new one got created with the same ->wd
at the same address.  That couldn't have happened in inotify_destroy(),
but inotify_rm_wd() could run into that.  Still, "new one got created"
is not a problem - we have every right to kill it or leave it alone,
whatever's more convenient.

So we can use idr_find(...) == watch && watch->inode->i_sb == sb as
"grab it and kill it" check.  If it's been our original watch, we are
fine, if it's a newcomer - nevermind, just pretend that we'd won the
race and kill the fscker anyway; we are safe since we know that its
superblock won't be going away.

And yes, this is far beyond mere "not very pretty"; so's the entire
concept of inotify to start with.

Seed device is a special btrfs with SEEDING super flag
set and can only be mounted in read-only mode. Seed
devices allow people to create new btrfs on top of it.

The new FS contains the same contents as the seed device,
but it can be mounted in read-write mode.

This patch does the following:

1) split code in btrfs_alloc_chunk into two parts. The first part does makes
the newly allocated chunk usable, but does not do any operation that modifies
the chunk tree. The second part does the the chunk tree modifications. This
division is for the bootstrap step of adding storage to the seed device.

2) Update device management code to handle seed device.
The basic idea is: For an FS grown from seed devices, its
seed devices are put into a list. Seed devices are
opened on demand at mounting time. If any seed device is
missing or has been changed, btrfs kernel module will
refuse to mount the FS.

3) make btrfs_find_block_group not return NULL when all
block groups are read-only.

c146afad2c Btrfs: mount ro and remount support
This patch adds mount ro and remount support. The main
changes in patch are: adding btrfs_remount and related
helper function; splitting the transaction related code
out of close_ctree into btrfs_commit_super; updating
allocator to properly handle read only block group.

f3465ca44e Btrfs: batch extent inserts/updates/deletions on the extent root
While profiling the allocator I noticed a good amount of time was being spent in
finish_current_insert and del_pending_extents, and as the filesystem filled up
more and more time was being spent in those functions.  This patch aims to try
and reduce that problem.  This happens two ways

1) track if we tried to delete an extent that we are going to update or insert.
Once we get into finish_current_insert we discard any of the extents that were
marked for deletion.  This saves us from doing unnecessary work almost every
time finish_current_insert runs.

2) Batch insertion/updates/deletions.  Instead of doing a btrfs_search_slot for
each individual extent and doing the needed operation, we instead keep the leaf
around and see if there is anything else we can do on that leaf.  On the insert
case I introduced a btrfs_insert_some_items, which will take an array of keys
with an array of data_sizes and try and squeeze in as many of those keys as
possible, and then return how many keys it was able to insert.  In the update
case we search for an extent ref, update the ref and then loop through the leaf
to see if any of the other refs we are looking to update are on that leaf, and
then once we are done we release the path and search for the next ref we need to
update.  And finally for the deletion we try and delete the extent+ref in pairs,
so we will try to find extent+ref pairs next to the extent we are trying to free
and free them in bulk if possible.

This along with the other cluster fix that Chris pushed out a bit ago helps make
the allocator preform more uniformly as it fills up the disk.  There is still a
slight drop as we fill up the disk since we start having to stick new blocks in
odd places which results in more COW's than on a empty fs, but the drop is not
nearly as severe as it was before.
