nblocks is passed into ext4_truncate_restart_trans() from
ext4_ext_truncate_extend_restart() with a value different from the default
blocks_for_truncate(), but is being ignored.
The two other calls to ext4_truncate_restart_trans() already pass the
default value, which is then being recalculated inside the function.
Fix the problem by using the passed argument.

If we have accumulated a contiguous region of memory to be written
out, and the next page can added to this region, don't bother locking
(and then unlocking the page) before writing out the memory. In the
unlikely event that the next page was being written back by some other
CPU, we can also skip waiting that page to finish writeback.

Because the ext4 page writeback codepath had been prematurely calling
clear_page_dirty_for_io(), if it turned out that a particular page
couldn't be written out during a particular pass of
write_cache_pages_da(), the page would have to get redirtied by
calling redirty_pages_for_writeback(). Not only was this wasted work,
but redirty_page_for_writeback() would increment wbc->pages_skipped to
signal to writeback_sb_inodes() that buffers were locked, and that it
should skip this inode until later.
Since this signal was incorrect in ext4's case --- which was caused by
ext4's historically incorrect use of write_cache_pages() ---
ext4_da_writepages() saved and restored wbc->skipped_pages to avoid
confusing writeback_sb_inodes().
Now that we've fixed ext4 to call clear_page_dirty_for_io() right
before initiating the page I/O, we can nuke the page_skipped
save/restore hackery, and breathe a sigh of relief.

If ext4_da_block_invalidatepages() is called because of a
failure from ext4_map_blocks() in mpage_da_map_and_submit(),
it's supposed to clean up -- including unlock -- all the
pages in the mpd structure. But these values may not match
up, even on a system in which block size == page size:
mpd->b_blocknr != mpd->first_page
mpd->b_size != (mpd->next_page - mpd->first_page)
ext4_da_block_invalidatepages() has been using b_blocknr and
b_size; this patch changes it to use first_page and
next_page.
Tested: I injected a small number (5%) of failures in
ext4_map_blocks() in the case that the flags contain
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE, and ran fsstress on this
kernel. Without this patch, I got hung tasks every time.
With this patch, I see no hangs in many runs of fsstress.

In mpage_da_map_and_submit(), if we have a delayed block
allocation failure from ext4_map_blocks(), we need to mark
the IO as complete, by setting
mpd->io_done = 1;
Otherwise, we could end up submitting the pages in an outer
loop; since they are unlocked on mapping failure in
ext4_da_block_invalidatepages(), this will cause a bug check
in mpage_da_submit_io().
I tested this by injected failures into ext4_map_blocks().
Without this patch, a simple fsstress run will bug check;

Jon Nelson has found a test case which causes postgresql to fail with
the error:
psql:t.sql:4: ERROR: invalid page header in block 38269 of relation base/16384/16581
Under memory pressure, it looks like part of a file can end up getting
replaced by zero's. Until we can figure out the cause, we'll roll
back the change and use block_write_full_page() instead of
ext4_bio_write_page(). The new, more efficient writing function can
be used via the mount option mblk_io_submit, so we can test and fix
the new page I/O code.
To reproduce the problem, install postgres 8.4 or 9.0, and pin enough
memory such that the system just at the end of triggering writeback
before running the following sql script:
begin;
create temporary table foo as select x as a, ARRAY[x] as b FROM
generate_series(1, 10000000 ) AS x;
create index foo_a_idx on foo (a);
create index foo_b_idx on foo USING GIN (b);
rollback;
If the temporary table is created on a hard drive partition which is
encrypted using dm_crypt, then under memory pressure, approximately
30-40% of the time, pgsql will issue the above failure.
This patch should fix this problem, and the problem will come back if
the file system is mounted with the mblk_io_submit mount option.

As pointed out in a prior patch, updating the mapping's
writeback_index based on pages written isn't quite right;
what the writeback index is really supposed to reflect is
the next page which should be scanned for writeback during
periodic flush.
As in write_cache_pages(), write_cache_pages_da() does
this scanning for us as we assemble the mpd for later
writeout. If we keep track of the next page after the
current scan, we can easily update writeback_index without
worrying about pages written vs. pages skipped, etc.
Without this, an fsync will reset writeback_index to
0 (its starting index) + however many pages it wrote, which
can mess up the progress of periodic flush.

This is analogous to Jan Kara's commit,
f446daaea9
mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging
but since we forked write_cache_pages, we need to reimplement
it there (and in ext4_da_writepages, since range_cyclic handling
was moved to there)
If you start a large buffered IO to a file, and then set
fsync after it, you'll find that fsync does not complete
until the other IO stops.
If you continue re-dirtying the file (say, putting dd
with conv=notrunc in a loop), when fsync finally completes
(after all IO is done), it reports via tracing that
it has written many more pages than the file contains;
in other words it has synced and re-synced pages in
the file multiple times.
This then leads to problems with our writeback_index
update, since it advances it by pages written, and
essentially sets writeback_index off the end of the
file...
With the following patch, we only sync as much as was
dirty at the time of the sync.

As a prepratory step to switching to bio_submit, inline

By queuing the io end on the unwritten workqueue before adding it
to our inode's list of completed IOs, I think we run the risk
of the work getting completed, and the IO freed, before we try
to add it to the inode's i_completed_io_list.
It should be safe to add it to the inode's list of completed
IOs, and -then- queue it for completion, I think.

The reason why this hangup happens is described as follows:
1) We write the last extent block of the file whose size is the filesystem
maximum size.
2) "BH_Delay" flag is set on the buffer_head of its block.
3) - the member, "m_lblk" of struct mpage_da_data is 4294967295 (UINT_MAX)
- the member, "m_len" of struct mpage_da_data is 1
mpage_put_bnr_to_bhs() which is called via ext4_da_writepages()
cannot clear "BH_Delay" flag of the buffer_head because the type of
m_lblk is ext4_lblk_t and then m_lblk + m_len is overflow.
Therefore an infinite loop occurs because ext4_da_writepages()
cannot write the page (which corresponds to the block) since
"BH_Delay" flag isn't cleared.

In data=journal mode, we still use block_write_begin() to prepare
page for writing. This function can occasionally mark buffer dirty
which violates journalling assumptions - when a buffer is part of
a transaction, it should be dirty and a buffer can be already part
of a forget list of some transaction when block_write_begin()
gets called. This violation of journalling assumptions then results
in "JBD: Spotted dirty metadata buffer..." warnings.
In fact, temporary dirtying the buffer while the page is still locked
does not really cause problems to the journalling because we won't write
the buffer until the page gets unlocked. So we just have to make sure
to clear dirty bits before unlocking the page.

delete under heavy load. The crash is not file system related and I
the following patch in ext4_free_branches() fixes the recovery
problem.
If the transaction is restarted and there is a crash before the new
transaction is committed, then after recovery, the blocks that this
indirect block points to have been freed, but the indirect block
itself has not been freed and may still point to some of the free
blocks (because of the ext4_forget()).
So ext4_forget() should be called inside ext4_free_blocks() to avoid
this problem.

Filesystems with unwritten extent support must not complete an AIO request
until the transaction to convert the extent has been commited. That means
the aio_complete calls needs to be moved into the ->end_io callback so
that the filesystem can control when to call it exactly.
This makes a bit of a mess out of dio_complete and the ->end_io callback
prototype even more complicated.

But initialization performed in two different places:
in case of i_size file system is responsible for dquot init
, but in case of uid/gid init will be called internally in

This ambiguity makes code harder to understand.

Jack up ext4_get_blocks() and add a new function, ext4_map_blocks()
which uses a much smaller structure, struct ext4_map_blocks which is
20 bytes, as opposed to a struct buffer_head, which nearly 5 times
bigger on an x86_64 machine. By switching things to use
ext4_map_blocks(), we can save stack space by using ext4_map_blocks()
since we can avoid allocating a struct buffer_head on the stack.

Make a copy of write_cache_pages() for the benefit of
ext4_da_writepages(). This allows us to simplify the code some, and
will allow us to further customize the code in future patches.
There are some nasty hacks in write_cache_pages(), which Linus has
(correctly) characterized as vile. I've just copied it into
write_cache_pages_da(), without trying to clean those bits up lest I
break something in the ext4's delalloc implementation, which is a bit
fragile right now. This will allow Dave Chinner to clean up
write_cache_pages() in mm/page-writeback.c, without worrying about
breaking ext4. Eventually write_cache_pages_da() will go away when I
rewrite ext4's delayed allocation and create a general
ext4_writepages() which is used for all of ext4's writeback. Until
now this is the lowest risk way to clean up the core
write_cache_pages() function.

Because we can badly over-reserve metadata when we
calculate worst-case, it complicates things for quota, since
we must reserve and then claim later, retry on EDQUOT, etc.
Quota is also a generally smaller pool than fs free blocks,
so this over-reservation hurts more, and more often.
I'm of the opinion that it's not the worst thing to allow
metadata to push a user slightly over quota. This simplifies
the code and avoids the false quota rejections that result
from worst-case speculation.
This patch stops the speculative quota-charging for
worst-case metadata requirements, and just charges quota
when the blocks are allocated at writeout. It also is
able to remove the try-again loop on EDQUOT.
This patch has been tested indirectly by running the xfstests
suite with a hack to mount & enable quota prior to the test.
I also did a more specific test of fragmenting freespace
and then doing a large delalloc write under quota; quota
stopped me at the right amount of file IO, and then the
writeout generated enough metadata (due to the fragmentation)
that it put me slightly over quota, as expected.

There was a bug reported on RHEL5 that a 10G dd on a 12G box
had a very, very slow sync after that.
At issue was the loop in write_cache_pages scanning all the way
to the end of the 10G file, even though the subsequent call
to mpage_da_submit_io would only actually write a smallish amt; then
we went back to the write_cache_pages loop ... wasting tons of time
in calling __mpage_da_writepage for thousands of pages we would
just revisit (many times) later.
Upstream it's not such a big issue for sys_sync because we get
to the loop with a much smaller nr_to_write, which limits the loop.
However, talking with Aneesh he realized that fsync upstream still
gets here with a very large nr_to_write and we face the same problem.
This patch makes mpage_add_bh_to_extent stop the loop after we've
accumulated 2048 pages, by setting mpd->io_done = 1; which ultimately
causes the write_cache_pages loop to break.
Repeating the test with a dirty_ratio of 80 (to leave something for
fsync to do), I don't see huge IO performance gains, but the reduction
in cpu usage is striking: 80% usage with stock, and 2% with the
below patch. Instrumenting the loop in write_cache_pages clearly
shows that we are wasting time here.
Eventually we need to change mpage_da_map_pages() also submit its I/O
to the block layer, subsuming mpage_da_submit_io(), and then change it
call ext4_get_blocks() multiple times.

In the no-journal case, ext4_write_inode() will fetch the bh and call
sync_dirty_buffer() on it. However, if the bh has already been
written and the bh reclaimed for some other purpose, AND if the inode
is the only one in the inode table block in use, then
ext4_get_inode_loc() will not read the inode table block from disk,
but as an optimization, fill the block with zero's assuming that its
caller will copy in the on-disk version of the inode. This is not
done by ext4_write_inode(), so the contents of the inode can simply
get lost. The fix is to use __ext4_get_inode_loc() with in_mem set to
0, instead of ext4_get_inode_loc(). Long term the API needs to be
fixed so it's obvious why latter is not safe.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Currently various places in the VFS call vfs_dq_init directly. This means
we tie the quota code into the VFS. Get rid of that and make the
filesystem responsible for the initialization. For most metadata operations
this is a straight forward move into the methods, but for truncate and
open it's a bit more complicated.
For truncate we currently only call vfs_dq_init for the sys_truncate case
because open already takes care of it for ftruncate and open(O_TRUNC) - the
new code causes an additional vfs_dq_init for those which is harmless.
For open the initialization is moved from do_filp_open into the open method,
which means it happens slightly earlier now, and only for regular files.
The latter is fine because we don't need to initialize it for operations
on special files, and we already do it as part of the namespace operations
for directories.
Add a dquot_file_open helper that filesystems that support generic quotas
can use to fill in ->open.
