90576c0b9a ext4, jbd2: Drop unneeded printks at mount and unmount time
There are a number of kernel printk's which are printed when an ext4
filesystem is mounted and unmounted.  Disable them to economize space
in the system logs.  In addition, disabling the mballoc stats by
default saves a number of unneeded atomic operations for every block
allocation or deallocation.

8d5d02e6b1 ext4: async direct IO for holes and fallocate support
For async direct IO that covers holes or fallocate, the end_io
callback function now queued the convertion work on workqueue but
don't flush the work rightaway as it might take too long to afford.

But when fsync is called after all the data is completed, user expects
the metadata also being updated before fsync returns.

Thus we need to flush the conversion work when fsync() is called.
This patch keep track of a listed of completed async direct io that
has a work queued on workqueue.  When fsync() is called, it will go
through the list and do the conversion.

0031462b5b ext4: Split uninitialized extents for direct I/O
When writing into an unitialized extent via direct I/O, and the direct
I/O doesn't exactly cover the unitialized extent, split the extent
into uninitialized and initialized extents before submitting the I/O.
This avoids needing to deal with an ENOSPC error in the end_io
callback that gets used for direct I/O.

When the IO is complete, the written extent will be marked as initialized.

55ad63bf3a ext4: fix extent sanity checking code with AGGRESSIVE_TEST
The extents sanity-checking code depends on the ext4_ext_space_*()
functions returning the maximum alloable size for eh_max; however,
when the debugging #ifdef AGGRESSIVE_TEST is enabled to test the
extent tree handling code, this prevents a normally created ext4
filesystem from being mounted with the errors:

487caeef9f ext4: Fix possible deadlock between ext4_truncate() and ext4_get_blocks()
During truncate we are sometimes forced to start a new transaction as
the amount of blocks to be journaled is both quite large and hard to
predict. So far we restarted a transaction while holding i_data_sem
and that violates lock ordering because i_data_sem ranks below a
transaction start (and it can lead to a real deadlock with
ext4_get_blocks() mapping blocks in some page while having a
transaction open).

We fix the problem by dropping the i_data_sem before restarting the
transaction and acquire it afterwards. It's slightly subtle that this
works:

1) By the time ext4_truncate() is called, all the page cache for the
truncated part of the file is dropped so get_block() should not be
called on it (we only have to invalidate extent cache after we
reacquire i_data_sem because some extent from not-truncated part could
extend also into the part we are going to truncate).

2) Writes, migrate or defrag hold i_mutex so they are stopped for all
the time of the truncate.

This bug has been found and analyzed by Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>.

Get rid of EXTEND_DISKSIZE flag of ext4_get_blocks_handle(). This
seems to be a relict from some old days and setting disksize in this
function does not make much sense.  Currently it was set only by
ext4_getblk().  Since the parameter has some effect only if create ==
1, it is easy to check by grepping through the sources that the three
callers which end up calling ext4_getblk() with create == 1
(ext4_append, ext4_quota_write, ext4_mkdir) do the right thing and set
disksize themselves.

6fd058f779 ext4: Add a comprehensive block validity check to ext4_get_blocks()
To catch filesystem bugs or corruption which could lead to the
filesystem getting severly damaged, this patch adds a facility for
tracking all of the filesystem metadata blocks by contiguous regions
in a red-black tree.  This allows quick searching of the tree to
locate extents which might overlap with filesystem metadata blocks.

This facility is also used by the multi-block allocator to assure that
it is not allocating blocks out of the system zone, as well as by the
routines used when reading indirect blocks and extents information
from disk to make sure their contents are valid.

c9877b205f ext4: fix for fiemap last-block test
Carl Henrik Lunde reported and debugged this; the test for the
last allocated block was comparing bytes to blocks in this test:

	if (logical + length - 1 == EXT_MAX_BLOCK ||
	    ext4_ext_next_allocated_block(path) == EXT_MAX_BLOCK)
		flags |= FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST;

so any extent which ended right at 4G was stopping the extent
walk.  Just replacing these values with the extent block &
length should fix it.

Also give blksize_bits a saner type, and reverse the order 
of the tests to make the more likely case tested first.

29fa89d088 ext4: Mark the unwritten buffer_head as mapped during write_begin
Setting BH_Unwritten buffer_heads as BH_Mapped avoids multiple
(unnecessary) calls to get_block() during the call to the write(2)
system call.  Setting BH_Unwritten buffer heads as BH_Mapped requires
that the writepages() functions can handle BH_Unwritten buffer_heads.

After this commit, things work as follows:

ext4_ext_get_block() returns unmapped, unwritten, buffer head when
called with create = 0 for prealloc space. This makes sure we handle
the read path and non-delayed allocation case correctly.  Even though
the buffer head is marked unmapped we have valid b_blocknr and b_bdev
values in the buffer_head.

ext4_da_get_block_prep() called for block resrevation will now return
mapped, unwritten, new buffer_head for prealloc space. This avoids
multiple calls to get_block() for write to same offset. By making such
buffers as BH_New, we also assure that sub-block zeroing of buffered
writes happens correctly.

initialized with stack garbage).  They are only used to call a

2ec0ae3ace ext4: Fix race in ext4_inode_info.i_cached_extent
If two CPU's simultaneously call ext4_ext_get_blocks() at the same
time, there is nothing protecting the i_cached_extent structure from
being used and updated at the same time.  This could potentially cause
the wrong location on disk to be read or written to, including
potentially causing the corruption of the block group descriptors
and/or inode table.

This bug has been in the ext4 code since almost the very beginning of
ext4's development.  Fortunately once the data is stored in the page
cache cache, ext4_get_blocks() doesn't need to be called, so trying to
replicate this problem to the point where we could identify its root
cause was *extremely* difficult.  Many thanks to Kevin Shanahan for
working over several months to be able to reproduce this easily so we
could finally nail down the cause of the corruption.

Now that we mark the buffer_head new we also need to have a valid

a4912123b6 ext4: New inode/block allocation algorithms for flex_bg filesystems
The find_group_flex() inode allocator is now only used if the
filesystem is mounted using the "oldalloc" mount option.  It is
replaced with the original Orlov allocator that has been updated for
flex_bg filesystems (it should behave the same way if flex_bg is
disabled).  The inode allocator now functions by taking into account
each flex_bg group, instead of each block group, when deciding whether
or not it's time to allocate a new directory into a fresh flex_bg.

The block allocator has also been changed so that the first block
group in each flex_bg is preferred for use for storing directory
blocks.  This keeps directory blocks close together, which is good for
speeding up e2fsck since large directories are more likely to look
like this:

395a87bfef ext4: fix header check in ext4_ext_search_right() for deep extent trees.
The ext4_ext_search_right() function is confusing; it uses a
"depth" variable which is 0 at the root and maximum at the leaves, 
but the on-disk metadata uses a "depth" (actually eh_depth) which
is opposite: maximum at the root, and 0 at the leaves.

The ext4_ext_check_header() function is given a depth and checks
the header agaisnt that depth; it expects the on-disk semantics,
but we are giving it the opposite in the while loop in this 
function.  We should be giving it the on-disk notion of "depth"
which we can get from (p_depth - depth) - and if you look, the last
(more commonly hit) call to ext4_ext_check_header() does just this.

Sending in the wrong depth results in (incorrect) messages
about corruption:

EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_search_right: bad header
in inode #2621457: unexpected eh_depth - magic f30a, entries 340,

83982b6f47 ext4: Remove "extents" mount option
This mount option is largely superfluous, and in fact the way it was
implemented was buggy; if a filesystem which did not have the extents
feature flag was mounted -o extents, the filesystem would attempt to
create and use extents-based file even though the extents feature flag
was not eabled.  The simplest thing to do is to nuke the mount option
entirely.  It's not all that useful to force the non-creation of new
extent-based files if the filesystem can support it.

498e5f2415 ext4: Change unsigned long to unsigned int
Convert the unsigned longs that are most responsible for bloating the
stack usage on 64-bit systems.

Nearly all places in the ext3/4 code which uses "unsigned long" is
probably a bug, since on 32-bit systems a ulong a 32-bits, which means
we are wasting stack space on 64-bit systems.

0390131ba8 ext4: Allow ext4 to run without a journal
A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run
without a journal.  Since that time I've integrated the excellent
comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs.  We're currently
running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without
a journal.  It just so happens that running without a journal is
slightly faster for most everything.

We did
	iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2

which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
to bypass the page cache.  Results:

                     ext2        ext4, default   ext4, no journal
  initial writes   13.0 MB/s        15.4 MB/s          15.7 MB/s
  rewrites         13.1 MB/s        15.6 MB/s          15.9 MB/s
  reads            15.2 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
  re-reads         15.3 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
  random readers    5.6 MB/s         5.6 MB/s           5.7 MB/s
  random writers    5.1 MB/s         5.3 MB/s           5.4 MB/s 

So it seems that, so far, this was a useful exercise.

97df5d155d ext4: remove do_blk_alloc()
The convenience function do_blk_alloc() is a static function with only
one caller, so fold it into ext4_new_meta_blocks() to simplify the
code and to make it easier to understand.

To save more stack space, if count is a null pointer in
ext4_new_meta_blocks() assume that caller wanted a single block (and
if there is an error, no blocks were allocated).

cf17fea657 ext4: Properly update i_disksize.
With delayed allocation we use i_data_sem to update i_disksize.  We need
to update i_disksize only if the new size specified is greater than the
current value and we need to make sure we don't race with other
i_disksize update.  With delayed allocation we will switch to the
write_begin function for non-delayed allocation if we are low on free
blocks.  This means the write_begin function for non-delayed allocation
also needs to use the same locking.

We also need to check and update i_disksize even if the new size is less
that inode.i_size because of delayed allocation.

525f4ed8dc ext4: journal credit fix for the delayed allocation's writepages() function
Previous delalloc writepages implementation started a new transaction
outside of a loop which called get_block() to do the block allocation.
Since we didn't know exactly how many blocks would need to be allocated,
the estimated journal credits required was very conservative and caused
many issues.

With the reworked delayed allocation, a new transaction is created for
each get_block(), thus we don't need to guess how many credits for the
multiple chunk of allocation.  We start every transaction with enough
credits for inserting a single exent.  When estimate the credits for
indirect blocks to allocate a chunk of blocks, we need to know the
number of data blocks to allocate.  We use the total number of reserved
delalloc datablocks; if that is too big, for non-extent files, we need
to limit the number of blocks to EXT4_MAX_TRANS_BLOCKS.

Code cleanup from Aneesh.

f3bd1f3fa8 ext4: journal credits reservation fixes for DIO, fallocate
DIO and fallocate credit calculation is different than writepage, as
they do start a new journal right for each call to ext4_get_blocks_wrap().
This patch uses the helper function in DIO and fallocate case, passing
a flag indicating that the modified data are contigous thus could account
less indirect/index blocks.

This patch also fixed the journal credit reservation for direct I/O
(DIO).  Previously the estimated credits for DIO only was calculated for
non-extent files, which was not enough if the file is extent-based.

Also fixed was fallocate double-counting credits for modifying the the
superblock.

ee12b63068 ext4: journal credits reservation fixes for extent file writepage
This patch modified the writepage/write_begin credit calculation for
extent files, to use the credits caculation helper function.

The current calculation of how many index/leaf blocks should be
accounted is too conservetive, it always considered the worse case,
where the tree level is 5, and in the case of multiple chunk
allocations, it always assumed no blocks were dirtied in common across
the allocations. This path uses the accurate depth of the inode with
some extras to calculate the index blocks, and also less conservative in
the case of multiple allocation accounting.
