During releasepage, we try to drop any extent_state structs for the
bye offsets of the page we're releaseing. But the code was incorrectly
telling clear_extent_bit to delete the state struct unconditionallly.
Normally this would be fine because we have the page locked, but other
parts of btrfs will lock down an entire extent, the most common place
being IO completion.
releasepage was deleting the extent state without first locking the extent,
which may result in removing a state struct that another process had
locked down. The fix here is to leave the NODATASUM and EXTENT_LOCKED
bits alone in releasepage.

If test_range_bit finds an extent that goes all the way to (u64)-1, it
can incorrectly wrap the u64 instead of treaing it like the end of
the address space.
This just adds a check for the highest possible offset so we don't wrap.

Both set and clear_extent_bit allow passing a cached
state struct to reduce rbtree search times. clear_extent_bit
was improperly bypassing some of the checks around making sure
the extent state fields were correct for a given operation.
The fix used here (from Yan Zheng) is to use the hit_next
goto target instead of jumping all the way down to start clearing
bits without making sure the cached state was exactly correct
for the operation we were doing.
This also fixes up the setting of the start variable for both
ops in the case where we find an overlapping extent that
begins before the range we want to change. In both cases
we were incorrectly going backwards from the original
requested change.

When btrfs fills a delayed allocation, it tries to increase
the wbc nr_to_write to cover a big part of allocation. The
theory is that we're doing contiguous IO and writing a few
more blocks will save seeks overall at a very low cost.
The problem is that extent_write_cache_pages could ignore
the new higher nr_to_write if nr_to_write had already gone
down to zero. We fix that by rechecking the nr_to_write
for every page that is processed in the pagevec.
This updates the math around bumping the nr_to_write value
to make sure we don't leave a tiny amount of IO hanging
around for the very end of a new extent.

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.

At writepage time, we have the page locked and we have the
extent_map entry for this extent pinned in the extent_map tree.
So, the page can't go away and its mapping can't change.
There is no need for the extra extent_state lock bits during writepage.

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.

Btrfs is currently mirroring some of the page state bits into
its extent state tree. The goal behind this was to use it in supporting
blocksizes other than the page size.
But, we don't currently support that, and we're using quite a lot of CPU
on the rb tree and its spin lock. This commit starts a series of
cleanups to reduce the amount of work done in the extent state tree as
part of each IO.
This commit:
* Adds the ability to lock an extent in the state tree and also set
other bits. The idea is to do locking and delalloc in one call
* Removes the EXTENT_WRITEBACK and EXTENT_DIRTY bits. Btrfs is using
a combination of the page bits and the ordered write code for this
instead.

As the extent state tree is manipulated, there are call backs
that are used to take extra actions when different state bits are set
or cleared. One example of this is a counter for the total number
of delayed allocation bytes in a single inode and in the whole FS.
When new states are inserted, this callback is being done before we
properly setup the new state. This hasn't caused problems before
because the lock bit was always done first, and the existing call backs
don't care about the lock bit.
This patch makes sure the state is properly setup before using the
callback, which is important for later optimizations that do more work
without using the lock bit.

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.

When btrfs fills a large delayed allocation extent, it is a good idea

The Btrfs set_extent_bit call currently searches the rbtree
every time it needs to find more extent_state objects to fill
the requested operation.
This adds a simple test with rb_next to see if the next object
in the tree was adjacent to the one we just found. If so,
we skip the search and just use the next object.

The extent_io writepage call updates the writepage index in the inode
as it makes progress. But, it was doing the update after unlocking the page,
which isn't legal because page->mapping can't be trusted once the page
is unlocked.
This lead to an oops, especially common with compression turned on. The
fix here is to update the writeback index before unlocking the page.

Btrfs is using WRITE_SYNC_PLUG to send down synchronous IOs with a
higher priority. But, the checksumming helper threads prevent it
from being fully effective.
There are two problems. First, a big queue of pending checksumming
will delay the synchronous IO behind other lower priority writes. Second,
the checksumming uses an ordered async work queue. The ordering makes sure
that IOs are sent to the block layer in the same order they are sent
to the checksumming threads. Usually this gives us less seeky IO.
But, when we start mixing IO priorities, the lower priority IO can delay
the higher priority IO.
This patch solves both problems by adding a high priority list to the async
helper threads, and a new btrfs_set_work_high_prio(), which is used
to make put a new async work item onto the higher priority list.
The ordering is still done on high priority IO, but all of the high
priority bios are ordered separately from the low priority bios. This
ordering is purely an IO optimization, it is not involved in data
or metadata integrity.

Part of reducing fsync/O_SYNC/O_DIRECT latencies is using WRITE_SYNC for
writes we plan on waiting on in the near future. This patch
mirrors recent changes in other filesystems and the generic code to
use WRITE_SYNC when WB_SYNC_ALL is passed and to use WRITE_SYNC for
other latency critical writes.
Btrfs uses async worker threads for checksumming before the write is done,
and then again to actually submit the bios. The bio submission code just
runs a per-device list of bios that need to be sent down the pipe.
This list is split into low priority and high priority lists so the
WRITE_SYNC IO happens first.

btrfs_mark_buffer dirty would set dirty bits in the extent_io tree
for the buffers it was dirtying. This may require a kmalloc and it
was not atomic. So, anyone who called btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty had to
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.

On fast devices that go from congested to uncongested very quickly, pdflush
is waiting too often in congestion_wait, and the FS is backing off to
easily in write_cache_pages.
For now, fix this on the btrfs side by only checking congestion after
some bios have already gone down. Longer term a real fix is needed
for pdflush, but that is a larger project.

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.

extent_io.c has debugging code to report and free leaked extent_state
and extent_buffer objects at rmmod time. This helps track down
leaks and it saves you from rebooting just to properly remove the
kmem_cache object.
But, the code runs under a fairly expensive spinlock and the checks to
see if it is currently enabled are not entirely consistent. Some use
#ifdef and some #if.
This changes everything to #if and disables the leak checking.

bio_end_io for reads without checksumming on and btree writes were
happening without using async thread pools. This means the extent_io.c
code had to use spin_lock_irq and friends on the rb tree locks for
extent state.
There were some irq safe vs unsafe lock inversions between the delallock
lock and the extent state locks. This patch gets rid of them by moving
all end_io code into the thread pools.
To avoid contention and deadlocks between the data end_io processing and the
metadata end_io processing yet another thread pool is added to finish
off metadata writes.

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.

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.

When reading compressed extents, try to put pages into the page cache
for any pages covered by the compressed extent that readpages didn't already
preload.
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.
An ordered work queue is used to make sure the inodes are written in the same
order that pdflush or writepages sent them down.
This changes extent_write_cache_pages to let the writepage function
update the wbc nr_written count.

Make sure we keep page->mapping NULL on the pages we're getting
via alloc_page. It gets set so a few of the callbacks can do the right
thing, but in general these pages don't have a mapping.
Don't try to truncate compressed inline items in btrfs_drop_extents.
The whole compressed item must be preserved.
Don't try to create multipage inline compressed items. When we try to
overwrite just the first page of the file, we would have to read in and recow
all the pages after it in the same compressed inline items. For now, only
create single page inline items.
Make sure we lock pages in the correct order during delalloc. The
search into the state tree for delalloc bytes can return bytes before
the page we already have locked.

When dropping middle part of an extent, btrfs_drop_extents truncates
the extent at first, then inserts a bookend extent.
Since truncation and insertion can't be done atomically, there is a small

lock the range of the bookend extent before truncation.

This patch removes the giant fs_info->alloc_mutex and replaces it with a bunch
of little locks.
There is now a pinned_mutex, which is used when messing with the pinned_extents
extent io tree, and the extent_ins_mutex which is used with the pending_del and
extent_ins extent io trees.
The locking for the extent tree stuff was inspired by a patch that Yan Zheng
wrote to fix a race condition, I cleaned it up some and changed the locking
around a little bit, but the idea remains the same. Basically instead of
holding the extent_ins_mutex throughout the processing of an extent on the
extent_ins or pending_del trees, we just hold it while we're searching and when
we clear the bits on those trees, and lock the extent for the duration of the
operations on the extent.
Also to keep from getting hung up waiting to lock an extent, I've added a
try_lock_extent so if we cannot lock the extent, move on to the next one in the
tree and we'll come back to that one. I have tested this heavily and it does
not appear to break anything. This has to be applied on top of my
find_free_extent redo patch.
I tested this patch on top of Yan's space reblancing code and it worked fine.
The only thing that has changed since the last version is I pulled out all my
debugging stuff, apparently I forgot to run guilt refresh before I sent the
last patch out. Thank you,

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.
