5695ef46ef [XFS] Use KM_NOFS for debug trace buffers
Use KM_NOFS to prevent recursion back into the filesystem which can cause
deadlocks.

In the case of xfs_iread() we hold the lock on the inode cluster buffer
while allocating memory for the trace buffers. If we recurse back into XFS
to flush data that may require a transaction to allocate extents which
needs log space. This can deadlock with the xfsaild thread which can't
push the tail of the log because it is trying to get the inode cluster
buffer lock.

b4dd330b9e [XFS] replace the XFS buf iodone semaphore with a completion
The xfs_buf_t b_iodonesema is really just a semaphore that wants to be a
completion. Change it to a completion and remove the last user of the
sema_t from XFS.

3790689fa3 [XFS] Do not access buffers after dropping reference count
We should not access a buffer after dropping it's reference count
otherwise we could race with another thread that releases the final
reference count and frees the buffer causing us to access potentially
unmapped memory. The bug this change fixes only occured on DEBUG XFS since
the offending code was in an ASSERT.

19f354d4c3 [XFS] sort out opening and closing of the block devices
Currently closing the rt/log block device is done in the wrong spot, and
far too early. So revampt it:

- xfs_blkdev_put moved out of xfs_free_buftarg into the caller so that

it is done after tearing down the buftarg completely.

- call to xfs_unmountfs_close moved from xfs_mountfs into caller so

that it's done after tearing down the filesystem completely.

- xfs_unmountfs_close is renamed to xfs_close_devices and made static

in xfs_super.c

- opening of the block devices is split into a helper xfs_open_devices

that is symetric in use to xfs_close_devices

- xfs_unmountfs can now lose struct cred

- error handling around device opening sanitized in xfs_fs_fill_super

6ab455eeaf [XFS] Fix memory corruption with small buffer reads
When we have multiple buffers in a single page for a blocksize == pagesize
filesystem we might overwrite the page contents if two callers hit it
shortly after each other. To prevent that we need to keep the page locked
until I/O is completed and the page marked uptodate.

Thanks to Eric Sandeen for triaging this bug and finding a reproducible
testcase and Dave Chinner for additional advice.

This should fix kernel.org bz #10421.

anyway because the current scheme is neither correct nor coherent with

d1afb678ce [XFS] Fixed a few bugs in xfs_buf_associate_memory()
- calculation of 'page_count' was incorrect as it did not
  consider the offset of 'mem' into the first page. The
  logic to bump 'page_count' didn't work if 'len' was <=
  PAGE_CACHE_SIZE (ie offset = 3k, len = 2k).
- setting b_buffer_length to 'len' is incorrect if 'offset'
  is > 0. Set it to the total length of the buffer.
- I suspect that passing a non-aligned address into
  mem_to_page() for the first page may have been causing
  issues - don't know but just tidy up that code anyway.

7f01507234 [XFS] eagerly remove vmap mappings to avoid upsetting Xen
XFS leaves stray mappings around when it vmaps memory to make it virtually
contigious. This upsets Xen if one of those pages is being recycled into a
pagetable, since it finds an extra writable mapping of the page.

This patch solves the problem in a brute force way, by making XFS always
eagerly unmap its mappings.

1) Don't hide struct shrinker.  It contains no magic.
2) Don't allocate "struct shrinker".  It's not helpful.
3) Call them "register_shrinker" and "unregister_shrinker".
4) Call the function "shrink" not "shrinker".
5) Reduce the 17 lines of waffly comments to 13, but document it properly.

585e6d8856 [XFS] Fix a synchronous buftarg flush deadlock when freezing.
At the last stage of a freeze, we flush the buftarg synchronously over and
over again until it succeeds twice without skipping any buffers.

The delwri list flush skips pinned buffers, but tries to flush all others.
It removes the buffers from the delwri list, then tries to lock them one
at a time as it traverses the list to issue the I/O. It holds them locked
until we issue all of the I/O and then unlocks them once we've waited for
it to complete.

The problem is that during a freeze, the filesystem may still be doing
stuff - like flushing delalloc data buffers - in the background and hence
we can be trying to lock buffers that were on the delwri list at the same
time. Hence we can get ABBA deadlocks between threads doing allocation and
the buftarg flush (freeze) thread.

Fix it by skipping locked (and pinned) buffers as we traverse the delwri
buffer list.

7dfb71030f [PATCH] Add include/linux/freezer.h and move definitions from sched.h
Move process freezing functions from include/linux/sched.h to freezer.h, so
that modifications to the freezer or the kernel configuration don't require
recompiling just about everything.

3fcfab16c5 [PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functions
Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion".
Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept.

The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core
backing-dev congestion functions.

This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion
functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

f07c225036 [XFS] Improve xfsbufd delayed write submission patterns, after blktrace
analysis.

Under a sequential create+allocate workload, blktrace reported backward
writes being issued by xfsbufd, and frequent inappropriate queue unplugs.
We now insert at the tail when moving from the delwri lists to the temp
lists, which maintains correct ordering, and we avoid unplugging queues
deep in the submit paths when we'd shortly do it at a higher level anyway.
blktrace now reports much healthier write patterns from xfsbufd for this
workload (and likely many others).

b20a35035f [PATCH] page migration reorg
Centralize the page migration functions in anticipation of additional
tinkering.  Creates a new file mm/migrate.c

1. Extract buffer_migrate_page() from fs/buffer.c

2. Extract central migration code from vmscan.c

3. Extract some components from mempolicy.c

4. Export pageout() and remove_from_swap() from vmscan.c

5. Make it possible to configure NUMA systems without page migration
   and non-NUMA systems with page migration.

I had to so some #ifdeffing in mempolicy.c that may need a cleanup.

e965f9630c [PATCH] Direct Migration V9: Avoid writeback / page_migrate() method
Migrate a page with buffers without requiring writeback

This introduces a new address space operation migratepage() that may be used
by a filesystem to implement its own version of page migration.

A version is provided that migrates buffers attached to pages.  Some
filesystems (ext2, ext3, xfs) are modified to utilize this feature.

The swapper address space operation are modified so that a regular
migrate_page() will occur for anonymous pages without writeback (migrate_pages
forces every anonymous page to have a swap entry).
