If there is a failure while allocating the preallocation structure, a
number of blocks can end up getting marked in the in-memory buddy
bitmap, and then not getting released. This can result in the
following corruption getting reported by the kernel:
EXT4-fs error (device sda3): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:758: group 1126,
12793 clusters in bitmap, 12729 in gd
In that case, we need to release the blocks using mb_free_blocks().
Tested: fs smoke test; also demonstrated that with injected errors,
the file system is no longer getting corrupted

Blocks in collapse range should be collapsed per cluster unit when
bigalloc is enable. If bigalloc is not enable, EXT4_CLUSTER_SIZE will
be same with EXT4_BLOCK_SIZE.
With this bug fixed, patch enables COLLAPSE_RANGE for bigalloc, which
fixes a large number of xfstest failures which use fsx.

Now ext4_has_inline_data() is used in wide spread codepaths. So we need

Currently punch hole code on files with direct/indirect mapping has some
problems which may lead to a data loss. For example (from Jan Kara):
fallocate -n -p 10240000 4096
will punch the range 10240000 - 12632064 instead of the range 1024000 -
10244096.
Also the code is a bit weird and it's not using infrastructure provided
by indirect.c, but rather creating it's own way.
This patch fixes the issues as well as making the operation to run 4
times faster from my testing (punching out 60GB file). It uses similar
approach used in ext4_ind_truncate() which takes advantage of
ext4_free_branches() function.
Also rename the ext4_free_hole_blocks() to something more sensible, like
the equivalent we have for extent mapped files. Call it
ext4_ind_remove_space().
This has been tested mostly with fsx and some xfstests which are testing
punch hole but does not require unwritten extents which are not
supported with direct/indirect mapping. Not problems showed up even with
1024k block size.

The EXT4FS_DEBUG is a *very* developer specific #ifdef designed for

Rearrange how we initialize data structures to avoid calling
ext4_count_free_clusters() until the multiblock allocator has been
initialized.
This also allows us to only call ext4_count_free_clusters() once, and
simplifies the code somewhat.

Commit 007649375f ("ext4: initialize multi-block allocator before

of the number of free blocks to become inconsistent with the number of
free blocks in the allocation bitmap. This is a harmless form of fs
corruption, but it causes the kernel to potentially remount the file
system read-only, or to panic, depending on the file systems's error
behavior.

The first time that we allocate from an uninitialized inode allocation
bitmap, if the block allocation bitmap is also uninitalized, we need
to get write access to the block group descriptor before we start
modifying the block group descriptor flags and updating the free block

becoming inconsistent if we crash at exactly the wrong time.

Error recovery in ext4_alloc_branch() calls ext4_forget() even for
buffer corresponding to indirect block it did not allocate. This leads
to brelse() being called twice for that buffer (once from ext4_forget()
and once from cleanup in ext4_ind_map_blocks()) leading to buffer use
count misaccounting. Eventually (but often much later because there
are other users of the buffer) we will see messages like:
VFS: brelse: Trying to free free buffer
Another manifestation of this problem is an error:
JBD2 unexpected failure: jbd2_journal_revoke: !buffer_revoked(bh);
inconsistent data on disk
The fix is easy - don't forget buffer we did not allocate. Also add an
explanatory comment because the indexing at ext4_alloc_branch() is
somewhat subtle.

aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have
mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is
visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead
when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be
noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse
the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is
visible.
The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use
grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial
allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed()
helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may
called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically.
The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used
by most filesystems.
find_get_page
find_lock_page
find_or_create_page
grab_cache_page_nowait
grab_cache_page_write_begin
All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper
pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its
behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then
old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core
function.
Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling
mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already
done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the
mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page
gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might
have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the
filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the
timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking
pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems
have consistent behaviour in this regard.
The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done
multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the
file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the
async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even
hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact
of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be
more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO"
to not hit the disk.
The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA
artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall
times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the
variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable
do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync
results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.
The performance results are reported based on a run with no profiling.
Profile data is based on a separate run with oprofile running.

This commit tries to fix a bug that we can't read symlink properly with
inline data feature when the length of symlink is greater than 60 bytes
but less than extra space.
The key issue is in ext4_inode_is_fast_symlink() that it doesn't check
whether or not an inode has inline data. When the user creates a new
symlink, an inode will be allocated with MAY_INLINE_DATA flag. Then
symlink will be stored in ->i_block and extended attribute space. In
the mean time, this inode is with inline data flag. After remounting
it, ext4_inode_is_fast_symlink() function thinks that this inode is a
fast symlink so that the data in ->i_block is copied to the user, and
the data in extra space is trimmed. In fact this inode should be as a
normal symlink.
The following script can hit this bug.
#!/bin/bash
cd ${MNT}
filename=ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789
rm -rf test
mkdir test
cd test
echo "hello" >$filename
ln -s $filename symlinkfile
cd
sudo umount /mnt/sda1
sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
readlink /mnt/sda1/test/symlinkfile
After applying this patch, it will break the assumption in e2fsck
because the original implementation doesn't want to support symlink
with inline data.

Tail of a page straddling inode size must be zeroed when being written
out due to POSIX requirement that modifications of mmaped page beyond
inode size must not be written to the file. ext4_bio_write_page() did
this only for blocks fully beyond inode size but didn't properly zero
blocks partially beyond inode size. Fix this.
The problem has been uncovered by mmap_11-4 test in openposix test suite
(part of LTP).

xfstests generic/091 is failing when mounting ext4 with data=journal.
I think that this regression is same problem that occurred prior to collapse
range issue. So ZERO RANGE also need to call ext4_force_commit as
collapse range.

Shuffle code around in ext4_orphan_add() and ext4_orphan_del() so that
we avoid taking global s_orphan_lock in some cases and hold it for

Use sbi pointer consistently in ext4_orphan_del() instead of opencoding
it sometimes. Also ext4_orphan_add() uses EXT4_SB(sb) often so create
sbi variable for it as well and use it.

In ext4_es_can_be_merged() when checking whether we can merge two
extents we should use EXT_MAX_BLOCKS instead of defining it manually.
Also if it is really the case we should notify userspace because clearly
there is a bug in extent status tree implementation since this should
never happen.

Caches from 'ext4_groupinfo_caches' may be in use by other mounts,
which have already existed. So, it is incorrect to destroy them when
newly requested mount fails.

On a bigalloc,^flex_bg filesystem, the ext4_valid_block_bitmap
function fails to convert from blocks to clusters when spot-checking
the validity of the bitmap block that we've just read from disk. This
causes ext4 to think that the bitmap is garbage, which results in the
block group being taken offline when it's not necessary. Add in the
necessary EXT4_B2C() calls to perform the conversions.

The ext4_bg_has_super() function doesn't know about the new rules for
where backup superblocks go on a sparse_super2 filesystem. Therefore,
block bitmap initialization doesn't know that it shouldn't reserve
space for backups in groups that are never going to contain backups.
The result of this is e2fsck complaining about the block bitmap being
incorrect (fortunately not in a way that results in cross-linked
files), so fix the whole thing.

On a filesystem with a 1k block size, the group descriptors live in
block 2, not block 1. If the filesystem has bigalloc,meta_bg set,
however, the calculation of the group descriptor table location does
not take this into account and returns the wrong block number. Fix
the calculation to return the correct value for this case.

When we perform a data integrity sync we tag all the dirty pages with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE at start of ext4_da_writepages. Later we check
for this tag in write_cache_pages_da and creates a struct
mpage_da_data containing contiguously indexed pages tagged with this
tag and sync these pages with a call to mpage_da_map_and_submit. This
process is done in while loop until all the PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE
pages are synced. We also do journal start and stop in each iteration.
journal_stop could initiate journal commit which would call
ext4_writepage which in turn will call ext4_bio_write_page even for
delayed OR unwritten buffers. When ext4_bio_write_page is called for
such buffers, even though it does not sync them but it clears the
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE of the corresponding page and hence these pages
are also not synced by the currently running data integrity sync. We
will end up with dirty pages although sync is completed.
This could cause a potential data loss when the sync call is followed
by a truncate_pagecache call, which is exactly the case in
collapse_range. (It will cause generic/127 failure in xfstests)
To avoid this issue, we can use set_page_writeback_keepwrite instead of
set_page_writeback, which doesn't clear TOWRITE tag.

unfortunately, Ted's changes to ext4_file_write() are *still* an
