jvrao 3e24ad2ff9 9p: Add a Direct IO support for non-cached operations.
The presence of v9fs_direct_IO() in the address space ops vector
allowes open() O_DIRECT flags which would have failed otherwise.

In the non-cached mode, we shunt off direct read and write requests before
the VFS gets them, so this method should never be called.

Direct IO is not 'yet' supported in the cached mode. Hence when
this routine is called through generic_file_aio_read(), the read/write fails
with an error.

Harsh Prateek Bora 7c7298cffc fs/9p: mkdir fix for setting S_ISGID bit as per parent directory
The current implementation of 9p client mkdir function does not
set the S_ISGID mode bit for the directory being created if the
parent directory has this bit set. This patch fixes this problem
so that the newly created directory inherits the gid from parent
directory and not from the process creating this directory, when
the S_ISGID bit is set in parent directory.

Harsh Prateek Bora 3834b12a18 fs/9p: setrlimit fix for 9p write
Current 9p client file write code does not check for RLIMIT_FSIZE resource.
This bug was found by running LTP test case for setrlimit. This bug is fixed
by calling generic_write_checks before sending the write request to the
server.
Without this patch: the write function is allowed to write above the
RLIMIT_FSIZE set by user.
With this patch: the write function checks for RLIMIT_SIZE and writes upto
the size limit.

Dmitry Monakhov 3d287de3b8 ext4: optimize orphan_list handling for ext4_setattr
Surprisingly chown() on ext4 is not SMP scalable operation. 
Due to unconditional orphan_del(NULL, inode) in ext4_setattr()
result in significant performance overhead because of global orphan
mutex, especially in no-journal mode (where orphan_add() is noop).
It is possible to skip explicit orphan_del if possible.

Theodore Ts'o 7f93cff90f ext4: fix kernel oops if the journal superblock has a non-zero j_errno
Commit 84061e0 fixed an accounting bug only to introduce the
possibility of a kernel OOPS if the journal has a non-zero j_errno
field indicating that the file system had detected a fs inconsistency.
After the journal replay, if the journal superblock indicates that the
file system has an error, this indication is transfered to the file
system and then ext4_commit_super() is called to write this to the
disk.

But since the percpu counters are now initialized after the journal
replay, the call to ext4_commit_super() will cause a kernel oops since
it needs to use the percpu counters the ext4 superblock structure.

The fix is to skip setting the ext4 free block and free inode fields
if the percpu counter has not been set.

Thanks to Ken Sumrall for reporting and analyzing the root causes of
this bug.

Eric Sandeen 72f84e6560 ext4: update writeback_index based on last page scanned
As pointed out in a prior patch, updating the mapping's
writeback_index based on pages written isn't quite right;
what the writeback index is really supposed to reflect is
the next page which should be scanned for writeback during
periodic flush.

As in write_cache_pages(), write_cache_pages_da() does
this scanning for us as we assemble the mpd for later
writeout.  If we keep track of the next page after the
current scan, we can easily update writeback_index without
worrying about pages written vs. pages skipped, etc.

Without this, an fsync will reset writeback_index to
0 (its starting index) + however many pages it wrote, which
can mess up the progress of periodic flush.

Eric Sandeen 5b41d92437 ext4: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging
This is analogous to Jan Kara's commit,
f446daaea9
mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging

but since we forked write_cache_pages, we need to reimplement
it there (and in ext4_da_writepages, since range_cyclic handling
was moved to there)

If you start a large buffered IO to a file, and then set
fsync after it, you'll find that fsync does not complete
until the other IO stops.

If you continue re-dirtying the file (say, putting dd
with conv=notrunc in a loop), when fsync finally completes
(after all IO is done), it reports via tracing that
it has written many more pages than the file contains;
in other words it has synced and re-synced pages in
the file multiple times.

This then leads to problems with our writeback_index
update, since it advances it by pages written, and
essentially sets writeback_index off the end of the
file...

With the following patch, we only sync as much as was
dirty at the time of the sync.

Eric Sandeen bbd08344e3 ext4: tidy up a void argument in inode.c
This doesn't fix anything at all, it just removes a vestige
of prior use from __mpage_da_writepage()

__mpage_da_writepage() had a *void argument leftover from
its previous life as a callback; make it reflect the actual type.

Fixing this up makes it slightly more obvious to read, and 
enables proper typechecking.

Lukas Czerner 7360d1731e ext4: Add batched discard support for ext4
Walk through allocation groups and trim all free extents. It can be
invoked through FITRIM ioctl on the file system. The main idea is to
provide a way to trim the whole file system if needed, since some SSD's
may suffer from performance loss after the whole device was filled (it
does not mean that fs is full!).

It search for free extents in allocation groups specified by Byte range
start -> start+len. When the free extent is within this range, blocks
are marked as used and then trimmed. Afterwards these blocks are marked
as free in per-group bitmap.

Since fstrim is a long operation it is good to have an ability to
interrupt it by a signal. This was added by Dmitry Monakhov.
Thanks Dimitry.

Lukas Czerner 367a51a339 fs: Add FITRIM ioctl
Adds an filesystem independent ioctl to allow implementation of file
system batched discard support. I takes fstrim_range structure as an
argument. fstrim_range is definec in the include/fs.h and its
definition is as follows.

struct fstrim_range {
	start;
	len;
	minlen;
}

start	- first Byte to trim
len	- number of Bytes to trim from start
minlen	- minimum extent length to trim, free extents shorter than this
	  number of Bytes will be ignored. This will be rounded up to fs
	  block size.

It is also possible to specify NULL as an argument. In this case the
arguments will set itself as follows:

start = 0;
len = ULLONG_MAX;
minlen = 0;

So it will trim the whole file system at one run.

After the FITRIM is done, the number of actually discarded Bytes is stored
in fstrim_range.len to give the user better insight on how much storage
space has been really released for wear-leveling.

Use return value from sb_issue_discard() as return value in
ext4_issue_discard(). Since sb_issue_discard() may result in more
serious errors than just -EOPNOTSUPP it is worth to inform user of this
function about them to handle error cases properly.

Call the block I/O layer directly instad of going through the buffer
layer.  This should give us much better performance and scalability,
as well as lowering our CPU utilization when doing buffered writeback.

Theodore Ts'o 1de3e3df91 ext4: move mpage_put_bnr_to_bhs()'s functionality to mpage_da_submit_io()
This massively simplifies the ext4_da_writepages() code path by
completely removing mpage_put_bnr_bhs(), which is almost 100 lines of
code iterating over a set of pages using pagevec_lookup(), and folds
that functionality into mpage_da_submit_io()'s existing
pagevec_lookup() loop.

Theodore Ts'o cb20d51883 ext4: inline ext4_writepage() into mpage_da_submit_io()
As a prepratory step to switching to bio_submit, inline
ext4_writepage() into mpage_da_submit() and then simplify things a
bit.  This makes it clearer what mpage_da_submit needs to do.

Also, move the ClearPageChecked(page) call into
__ext4_journalled_writepage(), as a minor bit of cleanup refactoring.

This also allows us to pull i_size_read() and
ext4_should_journal_data() out of the loop, which should be a very
minor CPU savings.
