035fe03a7a Btrfs: check total number of devices when removing missing
If you have a disk failure in RAID1 and then add a new disk to the
array, and then try to remove the missing volume, it will fail.  The
reason is the sanity check only looks at the total number of rw devices,
which is just 2 because we have 2 good disks and 1 bad one.  Instead
check the total number of devices in the array to make sure we can
actually remove the device.  Tested this with a failed disk setup and
with this test we can now run

btrfs-vol -r missing /mount/point

and it works fine.

7f59203abe Btrfs: check return value of open_bdev_exclusive properly
Hit this problem while testing RAID1 failure stuff.  open_bdev_exclusive
returns ERR_PTR(), not NULL.  So change the return value properly.  This
is important if you accidently specify a device that doesn't exist when
trying to add a new device to an array, you will panic the box
dereferencing bdev.

f48b90756b Btrfs: do not mark the chunk as readonly if in degraded mode
If a RAID setup has chunks that span multiple disks, and one of those
disks has failed, btrfs_chunk_readonly will return 1 since one of the
disks in that chunk's stripes is dead and therefore not writeable.  So
instead if we are in degraded mode, return 0 so we can go ahead and
allocate stuff.  Without this patch all of the block groups in a RAID1
setup will end up read-only, which will mean we can't add new disks to
the array since we won't be able to make allocations.

83d3c9696f Btrfs: make metadata chunks smaller
This patch makes us a bit less zealous about making sure we have enough free
metadata space by pearing down the size of new metadata chunks to 256mb instead
of 1gb.  Also, we used to try an allocate metadata chunks when allocating data,
but that sort of thing is done elsewhere now so we can just remove it.  With my

1.7gb.  Thanks,

ba1bf4818b Btrfs: make balance code choose more wisely when relocating
Currently, we can panic the box if the first block group we go to move is of a
type where there is no space left to move those extents.  For example, if we
fill the disk up with data, and then we try to balance and we have no room to
move the data nor room to allocate new chunks, we will panic.  Change this by
checking to see if we have room to move this chunk around, and if not, return
-ENOSPC and move on to the next chunk.  This will make sure we remove block
groups that are moveable, like if we have alot of empty metadata block groups,
and then that way we make room to be able to balance our data chunks as well.
Tested this with an fs that would panic on btrfs-vol -b normally, but no longer
panics with this patch.

V1->V2:
-actually search for a free extent on the device to make sure we can allocate a
chunk if need be.

-fix btrfs_shrink_device to make sure we actually try to relocate all the
chunks, and then if we can't return -ENOSPC so if we are doing a btrfs-vol -r
we don't remove the device with data still on it.

-check to make sure the block group we are going to relocate isn't the last one
in that particular space

-fix a bug in btrfs_shrink_device where we would change the device's size and
not fix it if we fail to do our relocate

890871be85 Btrfs: switch extent_map to a rw lock
There are two main users of the extent_map tree.  The
first is regular file inodes, where it is evenly spread
between readers and writers.

The second is the chunk allocation tree, which maps blocks from
logical addresses to phyiscal ones, and it is 99.99% reads.

The mapping tree is a point of lock contention during heavy IO
workloads, so this commit switches things to a rw lock.

57fd5a5ff8 Btrfs: tweak congestion backoff
The btrfs io submission thread tries to back off congested devices in
favor of rotating off to another disk.

But, it tries to make sure it submits at least some IO before rotating
on (the others may be congested too), and so it has a magic number of
requests it tries to write before it hops.

This makes the magic number smaller.  Testing shows that we're spending
too much time on congested devices and leaving the other devices idle.

9779b72f05 Btrfs: find smallest available device extent during chunk allocation
Allocating new block group is easy when the disk has plenty of space.
But things get difficult as the disk fills up, especially if
the FS has been run through btrfs-vol -b.  The balance operation
is likely to make the total bytes available on the device greater
than the largest extent we'll actually be able to allocate.

But the device extent allocation code incorrectly assumes that a device
with 5G free will be able to allocate a 5G extent.  It isn't normally a
problem because device extents don't get freed unless btrfs-vol -b
is run.

This fixes the device extent allocator to remember the largest free
extent it can find, and then uses that value as a fallback.

3acada49c2 Btrfs: Remove broken sanity check from btrfs_rmap_block()
It was never actually doing anything anyway (see the loop condition),
and it would be difficult to make it work for RAID[56].

Even if it was actually working, it's checking for the wrong thing
anyway. Instead of checking whether we list a block which _doesn't_ land
at the relevant physical location, it should be checking that we _have_
listed all the logical blocks which refer to the required physical
location on all devices.

This function is only called from remove_sb_from_cache() to ensure that
we reserve the logical blocks which would reside at the same physical
location as the superblock copies. So listing more blocks than we need
is actually OK.

With RAID[56] we're going to throw away an entire stripe for each block
we have to ignore, so we _are_ going to list blocks other than the
ones which actually contain the superblock.

e5e9a5206a Btrfs: avoid races between super writeout and device list updates
On multi-device filesystems, btrfs writes supers to all of the devices
before considering a sync complete.  There wasn't any additional
locking between super writeout and the device list management code
because device management was done inside a transaction and
super writeout only happened  with no transation writers running.

With the btrfs fsync log and other async transaction updates, this
has been racey for some time.  This adds a mutex to protect
the device list.  The existing volume mutex could not be reused due to
transaction lock ordering requirements.

d644d8a1e3 Btrfs: avoid IO stalls behind congested devices in a multi-device FS
The btrfs IO submission threads try to service a bunch of devices with a small
number of threads.  They do a congestion check to try and avoid waiting
on requests for a busy device.

The checks make sure we've sent a few requests down to a given device just so
that we aren't bouncing between busy devices without actually sending down
any IO.  The counter used to decide if we can switch to the next device
is somewhat overloaded.  It is also being used to decide if we've done
a good batch of requests between the WRITE_SYNC or regular priority lists.
It may get reset to zero often, leaving us hammering on a busy device
instead of moving on to another disk.

This commit adds a new counter for the number of bios sent while
servicing a device.  It doesn't get reset or fiddled with.  On
multi-device filesystems, this fixes IO stalls in streaming
write workloads.

d84275c938 Btrfs: don't allow WRITE_SYNC bios to starve out regular writes
Btrfs uses dedicated threads to submit bios when checksumming is on,
which allows us to make sure the threads dedicated to checksumming don't get
stuck waiting for requests.  For each btrfs device, there are
two lists of bios.  One list is for WRITE_SYNC bios and the other
is for regular priority bios.

The IO submission threads used to process all of the WRITE_SYNC bios first and
then switch to the regular bios.  This commit makes sure we don't completely
starve the regular bios by rotating between the two lists.

WRITE_SYNC bios are still favored 2:1 over the regular bios, and this tries
to run in batches to avoid seeking.  Benchmarking shows this eliminates
stalls during streaming buffered writes on both multi-device and
single device filesystems.

If the regular bios starve, the system can end up with a large amount of ram
pinned down in writeback pages.  If we are a little more fair between the two
classes, we're able to keep throughput up and make progress on the bulk of
our dirty ram.

5d4f98a28c Btrfs: Mixed back reference (FORWARD ROLLING FORMAT CHANGE)
This commit introduces a new kind of back reference for btrfs metadata.
Once a filesystem has been mounted with this commit, IT WILL NO LONGER
BE MOUNTABLE BY OLDER KERNELS.

When a tree block in subvolume tree is cow'd, the reference counts of all
extents it points to are increased by one.  At transaction commit time,
the old root of the subvolume is recorded in a "dead root" data structure,
and the btree it points to is later walked, dropping reference counts
and freeing any blocks where the reference count goes to 0.

The increments done during cow and decrements done after commit cancel out,
and the walk is a very expensive way to go about freeing the blocks that
are no longer referenced by the new btree root.  This commit reduces the
transaction overhead by avoiding the need for dead root records.

When a non-shared tree block is cow'd, we free the old block at once, and the
new block inherits old block's references. When a tree block with reference
count > 1 is cow'd, we increase the reference counts of all extents
the new block points to by one, and decrease the old block's reference count by
one.

This dead tree avoidance code removes the need to modify the reference
counts of lower level extents when a non-shared tree block is cow'd.
But we still need to update back ref for all pointers in the block.
This is because the location of the block is recorded in the back ref
item.

We can solve this by introducing a new type of back ref. The new
back ref provides information about pointer's key, level and in which
tree the pointer lives. This information allow us to find the pointer
by searching the tree. The shortcoming of the new back ref is that it
only works for pointers in tree blocks referenced by their owner trees.

This is mostly a problem for snapshots, where resolving one of these
fuzzy back references would be O(number_of_snapshots) and quite slow.
The solution used here is to use the fuzzy back references in the common
case where a given tree block is only referenced by one root,
and use the full back references when multiple roots have a reference
on a given block.

This commit adds per subvolume red-black tree to keep trace of cached
inodes. The red-black tree helps the balancing code to find cached
inodes whose inode numbers within a given range.

This commit improves the balancing code by introducing several data
structures to keep the state of balancing. The most important one
is the back ref cache. It caches how the upper level tree blocks are
referenced. This greatly reduce the overhead of checking back ref.

The improved balancing code scales significantly better with a large
number of snapshots.

This is a very large commit and was written in a number of
pieces.  But, they depend heavily on the disk format change and were
squashed together to make sure git bisect didn't end up in a
bad state wrt space balancing or the format change.

ffbd517d5a Btrfs: use WRITE_SYNC for synchronous writes
Part of reducing fsync/O_SYNC/O_DIRECT latencies is using WRITE_SYNC for
writes we plan on waiting on in the near future.  This patch
mirrors recent changes in other filesystems and the generic code to
use WRITE_SYNC when WB_SYNC_ALL is passed and to use WRITE_SYNC for
other latency critical writes.

Btrfs uses async worker threads for checksumming before the write is done,
and then again to actually submit the bios.  The bio submission code just
runs a per-device list of bios that need to be sent down the pipe.

This list is split into low priority and high priority lists so the
WRITE_SYNC IO happens first.

bedf762ba3 Btrfs: unplug in the async bio submission threads
Btrfs pages being written get set to writeback, and then may go through
a number of steps before they hit the block layer.  This includes compression,
checksumming and async bio submission.

The end result is that someone who writes a page and then does
wait_on_page_writeback is likely to unplug the queue before the bio they
cared about got there.

We could fix this by marking bios sync, or by doing more frequent unplugs,
but this commit just changes the async bio submission code to unplug
after it has processed all the bios for a device.  The async bio submission
does a fair job of collection bios, so this shouldn't be a huge problem
for reducing merging at the elevator.

For streaming O_DIRECT writes on a 5 drive array, it boosts performance
from 386MB/s to 460MB/s.

b765ead57d Btrfs: keep processing bios for a given bdev if our proc is batching
Btrfs uses async helper threads to submit write bios so the checksumming
helper threads don't block on the disk.

The submit bio threads may process bios for more than one block device,
so when they find one device congested they try to move on to other
devices instead of blocking in get_request_wait for one device.

This does a pretty good job of keeping multiple devices busy, but the
congested flag has a number of problems.  A congested device may still
give you a request, and other procs that aren't backing off the congested
device may starve you out.

This commit uses the io_context stored in current to decide if our process
has been made a batching process by the block layer.  If so, it keeps
sending IO down for at least one batch.  This helps make sure we do
a good amount of work each time we visit a bdev, and avoids large IO
stalls in multi-device workloads.

It's also very ugly.  A better solution is in the works with Jens Axboe.

4184ea7f90 Btrfs: Fix locking around adding new space_info
Storage allocated to different raid levels in btrfs is tracked by
a btrfs_space_info structure, and all of the current space_infos are
collected into a list_head.

Most filesystems have 3 or 4 of these structs total, and the list is
only changed when new raid levels are added or at unmount time.

This commit adds rcu locking on the list head, and properly frees
things at unmount time.  It also clears the space_info->full flag
whenever new space is added to the FS.

The locking for the space info list goes like this:

reads: protected by rcu_read_lock()
writes: protected by the chunk_mutex

At unmount time we don't need special locking because all the readers
are gone.

4008c04a07 Btrfs: make a lockdep class for the extent buffer locks
Btrfs is currently using spin_lock_nested with a nested value based
on the tree depth of the block.  But, this doesn't quite work because
the max tree depth is bigger than what spin_lock_nested can deal with,
and because locks are sometimes taken before the level field is filled in.

The solution here is to use lockdep_set_class_and_name instead, and to
set the class before unlocking the pages when the block is read from the
disk and just after init of a freshly allocated tree block.

btrfs_clear_path_blocking is also changed to take the locks in the proper
order, and it also makes sure all the locks currently held are properly
set to blocking before it tries to retake the spinlocks.  Otherwise, lockdep
gets upset about bad lock orderin.

When the threads notice congestion on a single device, they

c3027eb552 Btrfs: Add inode sequence number for NFS and reserved space in a few structs
This adds a sequence number to the btrfs inode that is increased on
every update.  NFS will be able to use that to detect when an inode has
changed, without relying on inaccurate time fields.

While we're here, this also:

Puts reserved space into the super block and inode

Adds a log root transid to the super so we can pick the newest super
based on the fsync log as well as the main transaction ID.  For now
the log root transid is always zero, but that'll get fixed.

Adds a starting offset to the dev_item.  This will let us do better
alignment calculations if we know the start of a partition on the disk.

934d375bac Btrfs: Use map_private_extent_buffer during generic_bin_search
It is possible that generic_bin_search will be called on a tree block
that has not been locked.  This happens because cache_block_block skips
locking on the tree blocks.

Since the tree block isn't locked, we aren't allowed to change
the extent_buffer->map_token field.  Using map_private_extent_buffer
avoids any changes to the internal extent buffer fields.

d20f7043fa Btrfs: move data checksumming into a dedicated tree
Btrfs stores checksums for each data block.  Until now, they have
been stored in the subvolume trees, indexed by the inode that is
referencing the data block.  This means that when we read the inode,
we've probably read in at least some checksums as well.

But, this has a few problems:

* The checksums are indexed by logical offset in the file.  When
compression is on, this means we have to do the expensive checksumming
on the uncompressed data.  It would be faster if we could checksum
the compressed data instead.

* If we implement encryption, we'll be checksumming the plain text and
storing that on disk.  This is significantly less secure.

* For either compression or encryption, we have to get the plain text
back before we can verify the checksum as correct.  This makes the raid
layer balancing and extent moving much more expensive.

* It makes the front end caching code more complex, as we have touch
the subvolume and inodes as we cache extents.

* There is potentitally one copy of the checksum in each subvolume
referencing an extent.

The solution used here is to store the extent checksums in a dedicated
tree.  This allows us to index the checksums by phyiscal extent
start and length.  It means:

* The checksum is against the data stored on disk, after any compression
or encryption is done.

* The checksum is stored in a central location, and can be verified without
following back references, or reading inodes.

This makes compression significantly faster by reducing the amount of
data that needs to be checksummed.  It will also allow much faster
raid management code in general.

The checksums are indexed by a key with a fixed objectid (a magic value
in ctree.h) and offset set to the starting byte of the extent.  This
allows us to copy the checksum items into the fsync log tree directly (or
any other tree), without having to invent a second format for them.

2b82032c34 Btrfs: Seed device support
Seed device is a special btrfs with SEEDING super flag
set and can only be mounted in read-only mode. Seed
devices allow people to create new btrfs on top of it.

The new FS contains the same contents as the seed device,
but it can be mounted in read-write mode.

This patch does the following:

1) split code in btrfs_alloc_chunk into two parts. The first part does makes
the newly allocated chunk usable, but does not do any operation that modifies
the chunk tree. The second part does the the chunk tree modifications. This
division is for the bootstrap step of adding storage to the seed device.

2) Update device management code to handle seed device.
The basic idea is: For an FS grown from seed devices, its
seed devices are put into a list. Seed devices are
opened on demand at mounting time. If any seed device is
missing or has been changed, btrfs kernel module will
refuse to mount the FS.

3) make btrfs_find_block_group not return NULL when all
block groups are read-only.

5f2cc086cc Btrfs: Avoid unplug storms during commit
While doing a commit, btrfs makes sure all the metadata blocks
were properly written to disk, calling wait_on_page_writeback for
each page.  This writeback happens after allowing another transaction
to start, so it competes for the disk with other processes in the FS.

If the page writeback bit is still set, each wait_on_page_writeback might
trigger an unplug, even though the page might be waiting for checksumming
to finish or might be waiting for the async work queue to submit the
bio.

This trades wait_on_page_writeback for waiting on the extent writeback
bits.  It won't trigger any unplugs and substantially improves performance
in a number of workloads.

This also changes the async bio submission to avoid requeueing if there
is only one device.  The requeue just wastes CPU time because there are
no other devices to service.

2517920135 Btrfs: nuke fs wide allocation mutex V2
This patch removes the giant fs_info->alloc_mutex and replaces it with a bunch
of little locks.

There is now a pinned_mutex, which is used when messing with the pinned_extents
extent io tree, and the extent_ins_mutex which is used with the pending_del and
extent_ins extent io trees.

The locking for the extent tree stuff was inspired by a patch that Yan Zheng
wrote to fix a race condition, I cleaned it up some and changed the locking
around a little bit, but the idea remains the same.  Basically instead of
holding the extent_ins_mutex throughout the processing of an extent on the
extent_ins or pending_del trees, we just hold it while we're searching and when
we clear the bits on those trees, and lock the extent for the duration of the
operations on the extent.

Also to keep from getting hung up waiting to lock an extent, I've added a
try_lock_extent so if we cannot lock the extent, move on to the next one in the
tree and we'll come back to that one.  I have tested this heavily and it does
not appear to break anything.  This has to be applied on top of my
find_free_extent redo patch.

I tested this patch on top of Yan's space reblancing code and it worked fine.
The only thing that has changed since the last version is I pulled out all my
debugging stuff, apparently I forgot to run guilt refresh before I sent the
last patch out.  Thank you,

c8b978188c Btrfs: Add zlib compression support
This is a large change for adding compression on reading and writing,
both for inline and regular extents.  It does some fairly large
surgery to the writeback paths.

Compression is off by default and enabled by mount -o compress.  Even
when the -o compress mount option is not used, it is possible to read
compressed extents off the disk.

If compression for a given set of pages fails to make them smaller, the
file is flagged to avoid future compression attempts later.

* While finding delalloc extents, the pages are locked before being sent down
to the delalloc handler.  This allows the delalloc handler to do complex things
such as cleaning the pages, marking them writeback and starting IO on their
behalf.

* Inline extents are inserted at delalloc time now.  This allows us to compress
the data before inserting the inline extent, and it allows us to insert
an inline extent that spans multiple pages.

* All of the in-memory extent representations (extent_map.c, ordered-data.c etc)
are changed to record both an in-memory size and an on disk size, as well
as a flag for compression.

From a disk format point of view, the extent pointers in the file are changed
to record the on disk size of a given extent and some encoding flags.
Space in the disk format is allocated for compression encoding, as well
as encryption and a generic 'other' field.  Neither the encryption or the
'other' field are currently used.

In order to limit the amount of data read for a single random read in the
file, the size of a compressed extent is limited to 128k.  This is a
software only limit, the disk format supports u64 sized compressed extents.

In order to limit the ram consumed while processing extents, the uncompressed
size of a compressed extent is limited to 256k.  This is a software only limit
and will be subject to tuning later.

Checksumming is still done on compressed extents, and it is done on the
uncompressed version of the data.  This way additional encodings can be
layered on without having to figure out which encoding to checksum.

Compression happens at delalloc time, which is basically singled threaded because
it is usually done by a single pdflush thread.  This makes it tricky to
spread the compression load across all the cpus on the box.  We'll have to
look at parallel pdflush walks of dirty inodes at a later time.

Decompression is hooked into readpages and it does spread across CPUs nicely.
