5348778699 xfs: convert xfs_fs_cmn_err to new error logging API
Continue to clean up the error logging code by converting all the
callers of xfs_fs_cmn_err() to the new API. Once done, remove the

a0fa2b679e xfs: Convert xlog_warn to new logging interface
Convert the xfs log operations to use the new error logging
interfaces. This removes the xlog_{warn,panic} wrappers and makes
almost all errors emit the device they belong to instead of just

ec3ba85f40 xfs: more sensible inode refcounting for ialloc
Currently we return iodes from xfs_ialloc with just a single reference held.
But we need two references, as one is dropped during transaction commit and
the second needs to be transfered to the VFS.  Change xfs_ialloc to use
xfs_iget plus xfs_trans_ijoin_ref to grab two references to the inode,
and remove the now superflous IHOLD calls from all callers.  This also
greatly simplifies the error handling in xfs_create and also allow to remove
xfs_trans_iget as no other callers are left.

0fbca4d1c3 xfs: fix dquot shaker deadlock
Commit 368e136 ("xfs: remove duplicate code from dquot reclaim") fails
to unlock the dquot freelist when the number of loop restarts is
exceeded in xfs_qm_dqreclaim_one(). This causes hangs in memory
reclaim.

Rework the loop control logic into an unwind stack that all the
different cases jump into. This means there is only one set of code
that processes the loop exit criteria, and simplifies the unlocking
of all the items from different points in the loop. It also fixes a
double increment of the restart counter from the qi_dqlist_lock
case.

eb40a87500 xfs: use wait queues directly for the log wait queues
The log grant queues are one of the few places left using sv_t
constructs for waiting. Given we are touching this code, we should
convert them to plain wait queues. While there, convert all the
other sv_t users in the log code as well.

Seeing as this removes the last users of the sv_t type, remove the
header file defining the wrapper and the fragments that still
reference it.

6743099ce5 xfs: Extend project quotas to support 32bit project ids
This patch adds support for 32bit project quota identifiers.

On disk format is backward compatible with 16bit projid numbers. projid
on disk is now kept in two 16bit values - di_projid_lo (which holds the
same position as old 16bit projid value) and new di_projid_hi (takes
existing padding) and converts from/to 32bit value on the fly.

xfs_admin (for existing fs), mkfs.xfs (for new fs) needs to be used
to enable PROJID32BIT support.

dcd79a1423 xfs: don't use vfs writeback for pure metadata modifications
Under heavy multi-way parallel create workloads, the VFS struggles
to write back all the inodes that have been changed in age order.
The bdi flusher thread becomes CPU bound, spending 85% of it's time
in the VFS code, mostly traversing the superblock dirty inode list
to separate dirty inodes old enough to flush.

We already keep an index of all metadata changes in age order - in
the AIL - and continued log pressure will do age ordered writeback
without any extra overhead at all. If there is no pressure on the
log, the xfssyncd will periodically write back metadata in ascending
disk address offset order so will be very efficient.

Hence we can stop marking VFS inodes dirty during transaction commit
or when changing timestamps during transactions. This will keep the
inodes in the superblock dirty list to those containing data or
unlogged metadata changes.

However, the timstamp changes are slightly more complex than this -
there are a couple of places that do unlogged updates of the
timestamps, and the VFS need to be informed of these. Hence add a
new function xfs_trans_ichgtime() for transactional changes,
and leave xfs_ichgtime() for the non-transactional changes.

acecf1b5d8 xfs: stop using xfs_qm_dqtobp in xfs_qm_dqflush
In xfs_qm_dqflush we know that q_blkno must be initialized already from a
previous xfs_qm_dqread.  So instead of calling xfs_qm_dqtobp we can
simply read the quota buffer directly.  This also saves us from a duplicate
xfs_qm_dqcheck call check and allows xfs_qm_dqtobp to be simplified now
that it is always called for a newly initialized inode.  In addition to
that properly unwind all locks in xfs_qm_dqflush when xfs_qm_dqcheck
fails.

This mirrors a similar cleanup in the inode lookup done earlier.

898621d5a7 xfs: simplify inode to transaction joining
Currently we need to either call IHOLD or xfs_trans_ihold on an inode when
joining it to a transaction via xfs_trans_ijoin.

This patches instead makes xfs_trans_ijoin usable on it's own by doing
an implicity xfs_trans_ihold, which also allows us to drop the third
argument.  For the case where we want to hold a reference on the inode
a xfs_trans_ijoin_ref wrapper is added which does the IHOLD and marks
the inode for needing an xfs_iput.  In addition to the cleaner interface
to the caller this also simplifies the implementation.

e98c414f9a xfs: simplify log item descriptor tracking
Currently we track log item descriptor belonging to a transaction using a
complex opencoded chunk allocator.  This code has been there since day one
and seems to work around the lack of an efficient slab allocator.

This patch replaces it with dynamically allocated log item descriptors
from a dedicated slab pool, linked to the transaction by a linked list.

This allows to greatly simplify the log item descriptor tracking to the
point where it's just a couple hundred lines in xfs_trans.c instead of
a separate file.  The external API has also been simplified while we're
at it - the xfs_trans_add_item and xfs_trans_del_item functions to add/
delete items from a transaction have been simplified to the bare minium,
and the xfs_trans_find_item function is replaced with a direct dereference
of the li_desc field.  All debug code walking the list of log items in
a transaction is down to a simple list_for_each_entry.

Note that we could easily use a singly linked list here instead of the
double linked list from list.h as the fastpath only does deletion from
sequential traversal.  But given that we don't have one available as
a library function yet I use the list.h functions for simplicity.

20026d9201 xfs: kill the unused XFS_QMOPT_* flush flags V2
dquots are never flushed asynchronously. Remove the flag and the
async write support from the flush function. Make the default flush
a delwri flush to make the inode flush code, which leaves the
XFS_QMOPT_SYNC the only flag remaining.  Convert that to use
SYNC_WAIT instead, just like the inode flush code.

V2:
- just pass flush flags straight through

7d6a7bde52 xfs: Use delay write promotion for dquot flushing
xfs_qm_dqflock_pushbuf_wait() does a very similar trick to item
pushing used to do to flush out delayed write dquot buffers. Change
it to use the new promotion method rather than an async flush.

Also, xfs_qm_dqflock_pushbuf_wait() can return without the flush lock
held, yet the callers make the assumption that after this call the
flush lock is held. Always return with the flush lock held.

d808f617ad xfs: Don't issue buffer IO direct from AIL push V2
All buffers logged into the AIL are marked as delayed write.
When the AIL needs to push the buffer out, it issues an async write of the
buffer. This means that IO patterns are dependent on the order of
buffers in the AIL.

Instead of flushing the buffer, promote the buffer in the delayed
write list so that the next time the xfsbufd is run the buffer will
be flushed by the xfsbufd. Return the state to the xfsaild that the
buffer was promoted so that the xfsaild knows that it needs to cause
the xfsbufd to run to flush the buffers that were promoted.

Using the xfsbufd for issuing the IO allows us to dispatch all
buffer IO from the one queue. This means that we can make much more
enlightened decisions on what order to flush buffers to disk as
we don't have multiple places issuing IO. Optimisations to xfsbufd
will be in a future patch.

Version 2
- kill XFS_ITEM_FLUSHING as it is now unused.
