bf068ee266 ext4: Handle unwritten extent properly with delayed allocation
When using fallocate the buffer_heads are marked unwritten and unmapped.
We need to map them in the writepages after a get_block.  Otherwise we
split the uninit extents, but never write the content to disk.

8ab22b9abb vfs: pagecache usage optimization for pagesize!=blocksize
When we read some part of a file through pagecache, if there is a
pagecache of corresponding index but this page is not uptodate, read IO
is issued and this page will be uptodate.

I think this is good for pagesize == blocksize environment but there is
room for improvement on pagesize != blocksize environment.  Because in
this case a page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not
uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate.

So I suggest that when all buffers which correspond to a part of a file
that we want to read are uptodate, use this pagecache and copy data from
this pagecache to user buffer even if a page is not uptodate.  This can
reduce read IO and improve system throughput.

I wrote a benchmark program and got result number with this program.

This benchmark do:

  1: mount and open a test file.

  2: create a 512MB file.

  3: close a file and umount.

  4: mount and again open a test file.

  5: pwrite randomly 300000 times on a test file.  offset is aligned
     by IO size(1024bytes).

  6: measure time of preading randomly 100000 times on a test file.

The result was:
	2.6.26
        330 sec

	2.6.26-patched
        226 sec

Arch:i386
Filesystem:ext3
Blocksize:1024 bytes
Memory: 1GB

On ext3/4, a file is written through buffer/block.  So random read/write
mixed workloads or random read after random write workloads are optimized
with this patch under pagesize != blocksize environment.  This test result
showed this.

The benchmark program is as follows:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/mount.h>

#define LEN 1024
#define LOOP 1024*512 /* 512MB */

main(void)
{
	unsigned long i, offset, filesize;
	int fd;
	char buf[LEN];
	time_t t1, t2;

	if (mount("/dev/sda1", "/root/test1/", "ext3", 0, 0) < 0) {
		perror("cannot mount\n");
		exit(1);
	}
	memset(buf, 0, LEN);
	fd = open("/root/test1/testfile", O_CREAT|O_RDWR|O_TRUNC);
	if (fd < 0) {
		perror("cannot open file\n");
		exit(1);
	}
	for (i = 0; i < LOOP; i++)
		write(fd, buf, LEN);
	close(fd);
	if (umount("/root/test1/") < 0) {
		perror("cannot umount\n");
		exit(1);
	}
	if (mount("/dev/sda1", "/root/test1/", "ext3", 0, 0) < 0) {
		perror("cannot mount\n");
		exit(1);
	}
	fd = open("/root/test1/testfile", O_RDWR);
	if (fd < 0) {
		perror("cannot open file\n");
		exit(1);
	}

	filesize = LEN * LOOP;
	for (i = 0; i < 300000; i++){
		offset = (random() % filesize) & (~(LEN - 1));
		pwrite(fd, buf, LEN, offset);

	time(&t1);

bc965ab3f2 ext4: Fix lack of credits BUG() when deleting a badly fragmented inode
The extents codepath for ext4_truncate() requests journal transaction
credits in very small chunks, requesting only what is needed.  This
means there may not be enough credits left on the transaction handle
after ext4_truncate() returns and then when ext4_delete_inode() tries
finish up its work, it may not have enough transaction credits,
causing a BUG() oops in the jbd2 core.

Also, reserve an extra 2 blocks when starting an ext4_delete_inode()
since we need to update the inode bitmap, as well as update the
orphaned inode linked list.

The ext4_ext_journal_restart() is a convenience function which checks
to see if the requested number of credits is present, and if so it
closes the current transaction and attaches the current handle to the
new transaction.  Unfortunately, it wasn't proprely checking the
return value from ext4_journal_extend(), so it was starting a new
transaction when one was not necessary, and returning an error when
all that was necessary was to restart the handle with a new

9c83a923c6 ext4: don't read inode block if the buffer has a write error
A transient I/O error can corrupt inode data.  Here is the scenario:

(1) update inode_A at the block_B
(2) pdflush writes out new inode_A to the filesystem, but it results
    in write I/O error, at this point, BH_Uptodate flag of the buffer
    for block_B is cleared and BH_Write_EIO is set
(3) create new inode_C which located at block_B, and
    __ext4_get_inode_loc() tries to read on-disk block_B because the
    buffer is not uptodate
(4) if it can read on-disk block_B successfully, inode_A is
    overwritten by old data

This patch makes __ext4_get_inode_loc() not read the inode block if the
buffer has BH_Write_EIO flag.  In this case, the buffer should have the
latest information, so setting the uptodate flag to the buffer (this
avoids WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_buffer_dirty().)

According to this change, we would need to test BH_Write_EIO flag for the
error checking.  Currently nobody checks write I/O errors on metadata
buffers, but it will be done in other patches I'm working on.

6be2ded1d7 ext4: Don't allow lg prealloc list to be grow large.
Currently, the locality group prealloc list is freed only when there
is a block allocation failure. This can result in large number of
entries in the preallocation list making ext4_mb_use_preallocated()
expensive.

To fix this, we convert the locality group prealloc list to a hash
list. The hash index is the order of number of blocks in the prealloc
space with a max order of 9. When adding prealloc space to the list we
make sure total entries for each order does not exceed 8. If it is
more than 8 we discard few entries and make sure the we have only <= 5
entries.

b5f10eed81 ext4: lock block groups when initializing
I noticed when filling a 1T filesystem with 4 threads using the
fs_mark benchmark:

fs_mark -d /mnt/test -D 256 -n 100000 -t 4 -s 20480 -F -S 0

that I occasionally got checksum mismatch errors:

EXT4-fs error (device sdb): ext4_init_inode_bitmap: Checksum bad for group 6935

etc.  I'd reliably get 4-5 of them during the run.

It appears that the problem is likely a race to init the bg's
when the uninit_bg feature is enabled.

With the patch below, which adds sb_bgl_locking around initialization,
I was able to complete several runs with no errors or warnings.

e29d1cde63 ext4: sync up block and inode bitmap reading functions

I came across this difference while looking at doing bg locking

This patch:

* removes unnecessary casts in the error messages
* renames read_inode_bitmap to ext4_read_inode_bitmap
* and more substantially, restructures the inode bitmap
  reading function to be more like the block bitmap counterpart.

The change to the inode bitmap reader simplifies the locking
to be applied in the next patch.

d03856bd5e ext4: Fix data corruption when writing to prealloc area
Inserting an extent can cause a new entry in the already existing index
block. That doesn't increase the depth of the instead. Instead it adds a
new leaf block. Now with the new leaf block the path information
corresponding to the logical block should be fetched from the new block.
The old path will be pointing to the old leaf block.

We need to recalucate the path information on extent insert
even if depth doesn't change. Without this change, the extent merge
after converting an unwritten extent to initialized extent takes the wrong
extent and cause data corruption.

3e3398a08d ext4: delayed allocation i_blocks fix for stat
Right now i_blocks is not getting updated until the blocks are actually
allocaed on disk.  This means with delayed allocation, right after files
are copied, "ls -sF" shoes the file as taking 0 blocks on disk.  "du"
also shows the files taking zero space, which is highly confusing to the
user.

Since delayed allocation already keeps track of per-inode total
number of blocks that are subject to delayed allocation, this patch fix
this by using that to adjust the value returned by stat(2). When real
block allocation is done, the i_blocks will get updated. Since the
reserved blocks for delayed allocation will be decreased, this will be
keep value returned by stat(2) consistent.

632eaeab1f ext4: fix delalloc i_disksize early update issue
Ext4_da_write_end() used walk_page_buffers() with a callback function of
ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay() to check if it extended the file size
without allocating any blocks (since in this case i_disksize needs to be
updated).  However, this is didn't work proprely because the buffer head
has not been marked dirty yet --- this is done later in
block_commit_write() --- which caused ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay() to
always return false.

In addition, walk_page_buffers() checks all of the buffer heads covering
the page, and the only buffer_head that should be checked is the one
covering the end of the write.  Otherwise, given a 1k blocksize
filesystem and a 4k page size, the buffer head covering the first 1k
stripe of the file could be unmapped (because it was a sparse file), and
the second or third buffer_head covering that page could be mapped, and
using walk_page_buffers() would fail in this case since it would stop at
the first unmapped buffer_head and return true.

The core problem is that walk_page_buffers() was intended to do work in
a callback function, and a non-zero return value indicated a failure,
which termined the walk of the buffer heads covering the page.  It was
not intended to be used with a boolean function, such as
ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay().

Add addtional fix from Aneesh to protect i_disksize update rave with truncate.

f0e6c98593 ext4: Handle page without buffers in ext4_*_writepage()
It can happen that buffers are removed from the page before it gets
marked dirty and then is passed to writepage().  In writepage() we just
initialize the buffers and check whether they are mapped and non
delay. If they are mapped and non delay we write the page. Otherwise we
mark them dirty.  With this change we don't do block allocation at all
in ext4_*_write_page.

writepage() can get called under many condition and with a locking order
of journal_start -> lock_page, we should not try to allocate blocks in
writepage() which get called after taking page lock.  writepage() can
get called via shrink_page_list even with a journal handle which was
created for doing inode update.  For example when doing
ext4_da_write_begin we create a journal handle with credit 1 expecting a
i_disksize update for the inode. But ext4_da_write_begin can cause
shrink_page_list via _grab_page_cache. So having a valid handle via
ext4_journal_current_handle is not a guarantee that we can use the
handle for block allocation in writepage, since we shouldn't be using
credits that had been reserved for other updates.  That it could result
in we running out of credits when we update inodes.

This provides a new ordered mode implementation which gets rid of using
buffer heads to enforce the ordering between metadata change with the
related data chage.  Instead, in the new ordering mode, it keeps track
of all of the inodes touched by each transaction on a list, and when
that transaction is committed, it flushes all of the dirty pages for
those inodes.  In addition, the new ordered mode reverses the lock
ordering of the page lock and transaction lock, which provides easier
support for delayed allocation.

61628a3f3a ext4: Invert lock ordering of page_lock and transaction start in delalloc
With the reverse locking, we need to start a transation before taking

d2a1763791 ext4: delayed allocation ENOSPC handling
This patch does block reservation for delayed
allocation, to avoid ENOSPC later at page flush time.

Blocks(data and metadata) are reserved at da_write_begin()
time, the freeblocks counter is updated by then, and the number of
reserved blocks is store in per inode counter.
        
At the writepage time, the unused reserved meta blocks are returned
back. At unlink/truncate time, reserved blocks are properly released.

Updated fix from  Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
to fix the oldallocator block reservation accounting with delalloc, added
lock to guard the counters and also fix the reservation for meta blocks.

e8ced39d5e percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_set
Delayed allocation need to check free blocks at every write time.
percpu_counter_read_positive() is not quit accurate. delayed
allocation need a more accurate accounting, but using
percpu_counter_sum_positive() is frequently is quite expensive.

This patch added a new function to update center counter when sum

percpu_counter_sum().

64769240bd ext4: Add delayed allocation support in data=writeback mode
Updated with fixes from Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> to unlock and
release the page from page cache if the delalloc write_begin failed, and
properly handle preallocated blocks.  Also added a fix to clear
buffer_delay in block_write_full_page() after allocating a delayed

Updated with fixes from Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
to update i_disksize properly and to add bmap support for delayed

cf108bca46 ext4: Invert the locking order of page_lock and transaction start
This changes are needed to support data=ordered mode handling via
inodes.  This enables us to get rid of the journal heads and buffer
heads for data buffers in the ordered mode.  With the changes, during
tranasaction commit we writeout the inode pages using the
writepages()/writepage(). That implies we take page lock during
transaction commit. This can cause a deadlock with the locking order
page_lock -> jbd2_journal_start, since the jbd2_journal_start can wait
for the journal_commit to happen and the journal_commit now needs to
take the page lock. To avoid this dead lock reverse the locking order.

2e9ee85035 ext4: Use page_mkwrite vma_operations to get mmap write notification.
We would like to get notified when we are doing a write on mmap section.
This is needed with respect to preallocated area. We split the preallocated
area into initialzed extent and uninitialzed extent in the call back. This
let us handle ENOSPC better. Otherwise we get ENOSPC in the writepage and
that would result in data loss. The changes are also needed to handle ENOSPC
when writing to an mmap section of files with holes.

7061eba75c ext4: Use inode preallocation with -o noextents
When mballoc is enabled, block allocation for old block-based
files are allocated using mballoc allocator instead of old
block-based allocator. The old ext3 block reservation is turned
off when mballoc is turned on.

However, the in-core preallocation is not enabled for block-based/
non-extent based file block allocation. This result in performance
regression, as now we don't have "reservation" ore in-core preallocation
to prevent interleaved fragmentation in multiple writes workload.

This patch fix this by enable per inode in-core preallocation
for non extent files when mballoc is used.
