Observed as a large delay when --mixed filesystem is filled up.
Test example:
1. create tiny --mixed FS:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=2G.img seek=$((2048 * 1024 * 1024 - 1)) count=1 bs=1
$ mkfs.btrfs --mixed 2G.img
$ mount -oloop 2G.img /mnt/ut/
2. Try to fill it up:
$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=10M.file bs=10240 count=1024
$ seq 1 256 | while read file_no; do echo $file_no; time cp 10M.file ${file_no}.copy; done
Up to '200.copy' it goes fast, but when disk fills-up each -ENOSPC
message takes 3 seconds to pop-up _every_ ENOSPC (and in usermode linux
it's even more: 30-60 seconds!). (Maybe, time depends on kernel's timer resolution).
No IO, no CPU load, just rescheduling. Some debugging revealed busy spinning
in shrink_delalloc.

In 2008, commit b4f6c45dfbf84f47c21f73f6370ad1292b0627fd dropped the use
of fs/btrfs/version.sh, but left the script behind. Kill it.

Btrfs's tree search ioctl has a field to indicate that no more than a
given number of records should be returned. The ioctl doesn't honour
this, as the tested value is not incremented until the end of the
copy_to_sk function. This patch removes an unnecessary local variable,
and updates the num_found counter as each key is found in the tree.

Allow processes blocked on plock requests to be interrupted
when they are killed. This leaves the problem of cleaning
up the lock state in userspace. This has three parts:
1. Add a flag to unlock operations sent to userspace
indicating the file is being closed. Userspace will
then look for and clear any waiting plock operations that
were abandoned by an interrupted process.
2. Queue an unlock-close operation (like in 1) to clean up
userspace from an interrupted plock request. This is needed
because the vfs will not send a cleanup-unlock if it sees no
locks on the file, which it won't if the interrupted operation
was the only one.
3. Do not use replies from userspace for unlock-close operations
because they are unnecessary (they are just cleaning up for the
process which did not make an unlock call). This also simplifies
the new unlock-close generated from point 2.

If a dtb is passed to the kernel then the kernel needs to iterate
through compiled-in mdescs looking for one that matches and move the
dtb data to a safe location before it gets accidentally overwritten by
the kernel.
This patch creates a new function, setup_machine_fdt() which is
analogous to the setup_machine_atags() created in the previous patch.
It does all the early setup needed to use a device tree machine
description.
v5: - Print warning with neither dtb nor atags are passed to the kernel
- Fix bug in setting of __machine_arch_type to the selected machine,
not just the last machine in the list.
Reported-by: Tixy <tixy@yxit.co.uk>
- Copy command line directly into boot_command_line instead of cmd_line
v4: - Dump some output when a matching machine_desc cannot be found
v3: - Added processing of reserved list.
- Backed out the v2 change that copied instead of reserved the
dtb. dtb is reserved again and the real problem was fixed by
using alloc_bootmem_align() for early allocation of RAM for
unflattening the tree.
- Moved cmd_line and initrd changes to earlier patch to make series
bisectable.
v2: Changed to save the dtb by copying into an allocated buffer.
- Since the dtb will very likely be passed in the first 16k of ram
where the interrupt vectors live, memblock_reserve() is
insufficient to protect the dtb data.

In preparation for adding device tree support, this patch consolidates
all of the atag-specific setup into a single function.
v5: - drop double printk("Machine; %s\n", ...); call.
- leave copying boot_command_line in setup_arch() since it isn't
atags specific.
v4: - adapt to the removal of lookup_machine_type()
- break out dump of machine_desc table into dump_machine_table()
because the device tree probe code will use it.
- Add for_each_machine_desc() macro

The current code relogs the entire inode every time during fsync log,
and it is much better suited to small files rather than large ones.
During my performance test, the fsync performace of large files sucks,
and we can ascribe this to the tremendous amount of csum infos of the
large ones, cause we have to flush all of these csum infos into log trees
even when there are only _one_ change in the whole file data. Apparently,
to optimize fsync, we need to create a filter to skip the unnecessary csum
ones, that is, the corresponding file data remains unchanged before this fsync.
Here I have some test results to show, I use sysbench to do "random write + fsync".
===
sysbench --test=fileio --num-threads=1 --file-num=2 --file-block-size=4K --file-total-size=8G --file-test-mode=rndwr --file-io-mode=sync --file-extra-flags= [prepare, run]
===
Sysbench args:
- Number of threads: 1
- Extra file open flags: 0
- 2 files, 4Gb each
- Block size 4Kb
- Number of random requests for random IO: 10000
- Read/Write ratio for combined random IO test: 1.50
- Periodic FSYNC enabled, calling fsync() each 100 requests.
- Calling fsync() at the end of test, Enabled.
- Using synchronous I/O mode
- Doing random write test
Sysbench results:
===
Operations performed: 0 Read, 10000 Write, 200 Other = 10200 Total
Read 0b Written 39.062Mb Total transferred 39.062Mb
===
a) without patch: (*SPEED* : 451.01Kb/sec)
112.75 Requests/sec executed
b) with patch: (*SPEED* : 4.7533Mb/sec)
1216.84 Requests/sec executed
PS: I've made a _sub transid_ stuff patch, but it does not perform as effectively as this patch,
and I'm wanderring where the problem is and trying to improve it more.
