This patch adds writeback_control to writing back the AIL
list. This means that we can then take advantage of the
information we get in ->write_inode() in order to set off
some pre-emptive writeback.
In addition, the AIL code is cleaned up a bit to make it
a bit simpler to understand.
There is still more which can usefully be done in this area,
but this is a good start at least.

The GLF_LRU flag introduced in the previous patch can be
used to check if a glock is on the lru list when a new
holder is queued and if so remove it, without having first
to get the lru_lock.
The main purpose of this patch however is to optimise the
glocks left over when an inode at end of life is being
evicted. Previously such glocks were left with the GLF_LFLUSH
flag set, so that when reclaimed, each one required a log flush.
This patch resets the GLF_LFLUSH flag when there is nothing
left to flush thus preventing later log flushes as glocks are
reused or demoted.
In order to do this, we need to keep track of the number of
revokes which are outstanding, and also to clear the GLF_LFLUSH
bit after a log commit when only revokes have been processed.

This adds support for two new flags. One keeps track of whether
the glock is on the LRU list or not. The other isn't really a
flag as such, but an indication of whether the glock has an
attached object or not. This indication is reported without
any locking, which is ok since we do not dereference the object
pointer but merely report whether it is NULL or not.
Also, this fixes one place where a tracepoint was missing, which
was at the point we remove deallocated blocks from the journal.

This patch is designed to clean up GFS2's fsync
implementation and ensure that it really does get everything on
disk. Since ->write_inode() has been updated, we can call that
via the vfs library function sync_inode_metadata() and the only
remaining thing that has to be done is to ensure that we get
any revoke records in the log after the inode has been written back.
Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
Rather than allowing the glocks to be scheduled for possible
reclaim as soon as they have exited the journal, this patch
delays their entry to the list until the glocks in question
are no longer in use.
This means that we will rely on the vm for writeback of all
dirty data and metadata from now on. When glocks are added
to the lru list they should be freeable much faster since all
the I/O required to free them should have already been completed.
This should lead to much better I/O patterns under low memory
conditions.

In order to ensure that the mapping stats (and thus the bdi) are correctly
updated, this patch changes the AIL writeback to use the filemap_datawrite
function. This helps prevent stalls in balance_dirty_pages() due to
large amounts of dirty metadata when there is little or no dirty data
around.
Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
The GFS2 ->write_inode function should be more aggressive at writing
back to the filesystem. This adopts the XFS system of returning
-EAGAIN when the writeback has not been completely done. Also, we
now kick off in-place writeback when called with WB_SYNC_NONE,
but we only wait for it and flush the log when WB_SYNC_ALL is
requested.

Function foreach_leaf used to look up the leaf block address and get

At the end of function gfs2_dir_exhash_dealloc, it was setting the dinode
type to "file" to prevent directory corruption in case of a crash.
It was doing so in its own journal transaction. This patch makes the
change occur when the last call is make to leaf_dealloc, since it needs
to rewrite the directory dinode at that time anyway.

Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
Since foreach_leaf is only called with leaf_dealloc as its only possible
call function, we can simplify the code by making it call leaf_dealloc
directly. This simplifies the code and eliminates the need for
leaf_call_t, the generic call method. This is a first small step in
simplifying the directory leaf deallocation code.

On rare occasions we encounter gfs2 problems where an
invalid bitmap state transition is attempted. For example,
trying to "unlink" a free block. In these cases, there
is really no useful information logged to debug the problem.
This patch adds more debug details that should allow us to
more closely examine the problem and possibly solve it.

next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed
in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc.
Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range
(and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the
helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without
checking the range of its arguments.
So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT. The fact that we then do "last+1"
doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the
pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow
case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to
overflow).

This patch fixes a deadlock in GFS2 where two processes are trying
to reclaim an unlinked dinode:
One holds the inode glock and calls gfs2_lookup_by_inum trying to look
up the inode, which it can't, due to I_FREEING. The other has set
I_FREEING from vfs and is at the beginning of gfs2_delete_inode
waiting for the glock, which is held by the first. The solution is to
add a new non_block parameter to the gfs2_iget function that causes it
to return -ENOENT if the inode is being freed.
