Fix a bug introduced by 20b45077. We have to return EINVAL on mount
failure, but doing that too early in the sequence leaves all of the
devices opened exclusively. This also fixes an issue where under some
scenarios only a second mount -o degraded <devices> command would
succeed.

One of the things that kills us is the fact that our ENOSPC reservations are
horribly over the top in most normal cases. There isn't too much that can be
done about this because when we are completely full we really need them to work
like this so we don't under reserve. However if there is plenty of unallocated
chunks on the disk we can use that to gauge how much we can overcommit. So this
patch adds chunk free space accounting so we always know how much unallocated
space we have. Then if we fail to make a reservation within our allocated
space, check to see if we can overcommit. In the normal flushing case (like
with delalloc metadata reservations) we'll take the free space and divide it by
2 if our metadata profile is setup for DUP or any of those, and then divide it
by 8 to make sure we don't overcommit too much. Then if we're in a non-flushing
case (we really need this reservation now!) we only limit ourselves to half of
the free space. This makes this fio test

When balancing, we'll first try to shrink devices for some space,
but if it is working on a full multi-disk partition with raid protection,
we may encounter a bug, that is, while shrinking, total_bytes may be less
than bytes_used, and btrfs may allocate a dev extent that accesses out of
device's bounds.
Then we will not be able to write or read the data which stores at the end
of the device, and get the followings:

We have a problem where if a user specifies discard but doesn't actually support
it we will return EOPNOTSUPP from btrfs_discard_extent. This is a problem
because this gets called (in a fashion) from the tree log recovery code, which
has a nice little BUG_ON(ret) after it, which causes us to fail the tree log
replay. So instead detect wether our devices support discard when we're adding
them and then don't issue discards if we know that the device doesn't support
it. And just for good measure set ret = 0 in btrfs_issue_discard just in case
we still get EOPNOTSUPP so we don't screw anybody up like this again. Thanks,

Btrfs does bio submissions from a worker thread, and each device
has a list of high priority bios and regular priority bios.
Synchronous writes go to the high priority thread while async writes
go to regular list. This commit brings back an explicit unplug
any time we switch from high to regular priority, which makes it
easier for the block layer to give us low latencies.

This patch was originally from Tejun Heo. lockdep complains about the btrfs
locking because we sometimes take btree locks from two different trees at the
same time. The current classes are based only on level in the btree, which
isn't enough information for lockdep to figure out if the lock is safe.
This patch makes a class for each type of tree, and lumps all the FS trees that
actually have files and directories into the same class.

I also removed the BUG_ON from error return of find_next_chunk in
init_first_rw_device(). It turns out that the only caller of
init_first_rw_device() also BUGS on any nonzero return so no actual behavior
change has occurred here.
do_chunk_alloc() also needed an update since it calls btrfs_alloc_chunk()
which can now return -ENOMEM. Instead of setting space_info->full on any
error from btrfs_alloc_chunk() I catch and return every error value _except_
-ENOSPC. Thanks goes to Tsutomu Itoh for pointing that issue out.

Dealing with this seems trivial - the only caller of btrfs_balance() is
btrfs_ioctl() which passes the error code directly back to userspace. There
also isn't much state to unwind (if I'm wrong about this point, we can
always safely move the allocation to the top of btrfs_balance() anyway).

In a multi device setup, the chunk allocator currently always allocates
chunks on the devices in the same order. This leads to a very uneven
distribution, especially with RAID1 or RAID10 and an uneven number of
devices.
This patch always sorts the devices before allocating, and allocates the
stripes on the devices with the most available space, as long as there
is enough space available. In a low space situation, it first tries to
maximize striping.
The patch also simplifies the allocator and reduces the checks for
corner cases.
The simplification is done by several means. First, it defines the
properties of each RAID type upfront. These properties are used afterwards
instead of differentiating cases in several places.
Second, the old allocator defined a minimum stripe size for each block
group type, tried to find a large enough chunk, and if this fails just
allocates a smaller one. This is now done in one step. The largest possible
chunk (up to max_chunk_size) is searched and allocated.
Because we now have only one pass, the allocation of the map (struct
map_lookup) is moved down to the point where the number of stripes is
already known. This way we avoid reallocation of the map.
We still avoid allocating stripes that are not a multiple of STRIPE_SIZE.
currently alloc_start is disregarded if the requested
chunk size is bigger than (device size - alloc_start),
but smaller than the device size.
The only situation where I see this could have made sense
was when a chunk equal the size of the device has been
requested. This was possible as the allocator failed to
take alloc_start into account when calculating the request
chunk size. As this gets fixed by this patch, the workaround
is not necessary anymore.
This adds an initial implementation for scrub. It works quite
straightforward. The usermode issues an ioctl for each device in the
fs. For each device, it enumerates the allocated device chunks. For
each chunk, the contained extents are enumerated and the data checksums
fetched. The extents are read sequentially and the checksums verified.
If an error occurs (checksum or EIO), a good copy is searched for. If
one is found, the bad copy will be rewritten.
All enumerations happen from the commit roots. During a transaction
commit, the scrubs get paused and afterwards continue from the new
roots.
This commit is based on the series originally posted to linux-btrfs
with some improvements that resulted from comments from David Sterba,
Ilya Dryomov and Jan Schmidt.

These show sync arguments.
6) transaction:

who does commit.
7) back reference and cow:
btrfs_delayed_tree_ref
btrfs_delayed_data_ref
btrfs_delayed_ref_head
btrfs_cow_block
Btrfs natively supports back references, these tracepoints are helpful on
understanding btrfs's COW mechanism.
8) chunk:
btrfs_chunk_alloc
btrfs_chunk_free
Chunk is a link between physical offset and logical offset, and stands for space
infomation in btrfs, and these are helpful on tracing space things.
9) reserved_extent:

It is because btrfs cannot allocate chunks when one of the pairing disks has
no space, the free space on the other disks can not be used for ever, and should
be subtracted from the total space, but btrfs doesn't subtract this space from
the total. It is strange to the user.
This patch fixes it by calcing the free space that can be used to allocate
chunks.
Implementation:
1. get all the devices free space, and align them by stripe length.
2. sort the devices by the free space.
3. check the free space of the devices,
3.1. if it is not zero, and then check the number of the devices that has
more free space than this device,
if the number of the devices is beyond the min stripe number, the free
space can be used, and add into total free space.
if the number of the devices is below the min stripe number, we can not
use the free space, the check ends.
3.2. if the free space is zero, check the next devices, goto 3.1
This implementation is just likely fake chunk allocation.
After appling this patch, df can show correct space information:

With this patch, we change the handling method when we can not get enough free
extents with default size.
Implementation:
1. Look up the suitable free extent on each device and keep the search result.
If not find a suitable free extent, keep the max free extent
2. If we get enough suitable free extents with default size, chunk allocation
succeeds.
3. If we can not get enough free extents, but the number of the extent with
default size is >= min_stripes, we just change the mapping information
(reduce the number of stripes in the extent map), and chunk allocation
succeeds.
4. If the number of the extent with default size is < min_stripes, sort the
devices by its max free extent's size descending
5. Use the size of the max free extent on the (num_stripes - 1)th device as the
stripe size to allocate the device space
By this way, the chunk allocator can allocate chunks as large as possible when
the devices' space is not enough and make full use of the devices.
