+/*--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ * As far as the metadata goes, there is:
+ *
+ * - A superblock in block zero, taking up fewer than 512 bytes for
+ *   atomic writes.
+ *
+ * - A space map managing the metadata blocks.
+ *
+ * - A space map managing the data blocks.
+ *
+ * - A btree mapping our internal thin dev ids onto struct disk_device_details.
+ *
+ * - A hierarchical btree, with 2 levels which effectively maps (thin
+ *   dev id, virtual block) -> block_time.  Block time is a 64-bit
+ *   field holding the time in the low 24 bits, and block in the top 48
+ *   bits.
+ *
+ * BTrees consist solely of btree_nodes, that fill a block.  Some are
+ * internal nodes, as such their values are a __le64 pointing to other
+ * nodes.  Leaf nodes can store data of any reasonable size (ie. much
+ * smaller than the block size).  The nodes consist of the header,
+ * followed by an array of keys, followed by an array of values.  We have
+ * to binary search on the keys so they're all held together to help the
+ * cpu cache.
+ *
+ * Space maps have 2 btrees:
+ *
+ * - One maps a uint64_t onto a struct index_entry.  Which points to a
+ *   bitmap block, and has some details about how many free entries there
+ *   are etc.
+ *
+ * - The bitmap blocks have a header (for the checksum).  Then the rest
+ *   of the block is pairs of bits.  With the meaning being:
+ *
+ *   0 - ref count is 0
+ *   1 - ref count is 1
+ *   2 - ref count is 2
+ *   3 - ref count is higher than 2
+ *
+ * - If the count is higher than 2 then the ref count is entered in a
+ *   second btree that directly maps the block_address to a uint32_t ref
+ *   count.
+ *
+ * The space map metadata variant doesn't have a bitmaps btree.  Instead
+ * it has one single blocks worth of index_entries.  This avoids
+ * recursive issues with the bitmap btree needing to allocate space in
+ * order to insert.  With a small data block size such as 64k the
+ * metadata support data devices that are hundreds of terrabytes.
+ *
+ * The space maps allocate space linearly from front to back.  Space that
+ * is freed in a transaction is never recycled within that transaction.
+ * To try and avoid fragmenting _free_ space the allocator always goes
+ * back and fills in gaps.
+ *
+ * All metadata io is in THIN_METADATA_BLOCK_SIZE sized/aligned chunks
+ * from the block manager.

+ * How do we handle breaking sharing of data blocks?
+ * =================================================
+ *
+ * We use a standard copy-on-write btree to store the mappings for the
+ * devices (note I'm talking about copy-on-write of the metadata here, not
+ * the data).  When you take an internal snapshot you clone the root node
+ * of the origin btree.  After this there is no concept of an origin or a
+ * snapshot.  They are just two device trees that happen to point to the
+ * same data blocks.
+ *
+ * When we get a write in we decide if it's to a shared data block using
+ * some timestamp magic.  If it is, we have to break sharing.
+ *
+ * Let's say we write to a shared block in what was the origin.  The
+ * steps are:
+ *
+ * i) plug io further to this physical block. (see bio_prison code).
+ *
+ * ii) quiesce any read io to that shared data block.  Obviously
+ * including all devices that share this block.  (see deferred_set code)
+ *
+ * iii) copy the data block to a newly allocate block.  This step can be
+ * missed out if the io covers the block. (schedule_copy).
+ *
+ * iv) insert the new mapping into the origin's btree
+ * (process_prepared_mappings).  This act of inserting breaks some
+ * sharing of btree nodes between the two devices.  Breaking sharing only
+ * effects the btree of that specific device.  Btrees for the other
+ * devices that share the block never change.  The btree for the origin
+ * device as it was after the last commit is untouched, ie. we're using
+ * persistent data structures in the functional programming sense.
+ *
+ * v) unplug io to this physical block, including the io that triggered
+ * the breaking of sharing.
+ *
+ * Steps (ii) and (iii) occur in parallel.
+ *
+ * The metadata _doesn't_ need to be committed before the io continues.  We
+ * get away with this because the io is always written to a _new_ block.
+ * If there's a crash, then:
+ *
+ * - The origin mapping will point to the old origin block (the shared
+ * one).  This will contain the data as it was before the io that triggered
+ * the breaking of sharing came in.
+ *
+ * - The snap mapping still points to the old block.  As it would after
+ * the commit.
+ *
+ * The downside of this scheme is the timestamp magic isn't perfect, and
+ * will continue to think that data block in the snapshot device is shared
+ * even after the write to the origin has broken sharing.  I suspect data
+ * blocks will typically be shared by many different devices, so we're
+ * breaking sharing n + 1 times, rather than n, where n is the number of
+ * devices that reference this data block.  At the moment I think the
+ * benefits far, far outweigh the disadvantages.

+ * Removing an entry from a btree
+ * ==============================
+ *
+ * A very important constraint for our btree is that no node, except the
+ * root, may have fewer than a certain number of entries.
+ * (MIN_ENTRIES <= nr_entries <= MAX_ENTRIES).
+ *
+ * Ensuring this is complicated by the way we want to only ever hold the
+ * locks on 2 nodes concurrently, and only change nodes in a top to bottom
+ * fashion.
+ *
+ * Each node may have a left or right sibling.  When decending the spine,
+ * if a node contains only MIN_ENTRIES then we try and increase this to at
+ * least MIN_ENTRIES + 1.  We do this in the following ways:
+ *
+ * [A] No siblings => this can only happen if the node is the root, in which
+ *     case we copy the childs contents over the root.
+ *
+ * [B] No left sibling
+ *     ==> rebalance(node, right sibling)
+ *
+ * [C] No right sibling
+ *     ==> rebalance(left sibling, node)
+ *
+ * [D] Both siblings, total_entries(left, node, right) <= DEL_THRESHOLD
+ *     ==> delete node adding it's contents to left and right
+ *
+ * [E] Both siblings, total_entries(left, node, right) > DEL_THRESHOLD
+ *     ==> rebalance(left, node, right)
+ *
+ * After these operations it's possible that the our original node no
+ * longer contains the desired sub tree.  For this reason this rebalancing
+ * is performed on the children of the current node.  This also avoids
+ * having a special case for the root.
+ *
+ * Once this rebalancing has occurred we can then step into the child node
+ * for internal nodes.  Or delete the entry for leaf nodes.
