When encountering an EIO while reading from a nodatasum extent, we
insert an error record into the inode's failure tree.
btrfs_readpage_end_io_hook returns early for nodatasum inodes. We'd
better clear the failure tree in that case, otherwise the kernel
complains about
BUG extent_state: Objects remaining on kmem_cache_close()

Normally current->jouranl_info is cleared by commit_transaction. For an
async snap or subvol creation, though, it runs in a work queue. Clear
it in btrfs_commit_transaction_async() to avoid leaking a non-NULL
journal_info when we return to userspace. When the actual commit runs in
the other thread it won't care that it's current->journal_info is already
NULL.

Josef recently changed the free extent cache to look in
the block group cluster for any bitmaps before trying to
add a new bitmap for the same offset. This avoids BUG_ON()s due
covering duplicate ranges.
But it didn't go quite far enough. A given free range might span
between one or more bitmaps or free space entries. The code has
looping to cover this, but it doesn't check for clustered bitmaps
every time.
This shuffles our gotos to check for a bitmap in the cluster
for every new bitmap entry we try to add.

Arne's scrub stuff exposed a problem with mapping the extent buffer in
reada_for_search. He searches the commit root with multiple threads and with
skip_locking set, so we can race and overwrite node->map_token since node isn't
locked. So fix this so that we only map the extent buffer if we don't already
have a map_token and skip_locking isn't set. Without this patch scrub would
panic almost immediately, with the patch it doesn't panic anymore. Thanks,

Unconditionally changing the address limit to USER_DS and not restoring
it to its old value in the error path is wrong because it prevents us
using kernel memory on repeated calls to this function. This, in fact,
breaks the fallback of hard coded paths to the init program from being
ever successful if the first candidate fails to load.
With this patch applied switching to USER_DS is delayed until the point
of no return is reached which makes it possible to have a multi-arch
rootfs with one arch specific init binary for each of the (hard coded)
probed paths.
Since the address limit is already set to USER_DS when start_thread()
will be invoked, this redundancy can be safely removed.

I was testing with empty_cluster = 0 to try and reproduce a problem and kept
hitting early enospc panics. This was because our loop logic was a little
confused. So this is what I did
1) Make the loop variable the ultimate decider on wether we should loop again
isntead of checking to see if we had an uncached bg, empty size or empty
cluster.
2) Increment loop before checking to see what we are on to make the loop
definitions make more sense.
3) If we are on the chunk alloc loop don't set empty_size/empty_cluster to 0
unless we didn't actually allocate a chunk. If we did allocate a chunk we
should be able to easily setup a new cluster so clearing
empty_size/empty_cluster makes us less efficient.
This kept me from hitting panics while trying to reproduce the other problem.
Thanks,

In cleaning up the clustering code I accidently introduced a regression by
adding bitmap entries to the cluster rb tree. The problem is if we've maxed out
the number of bitmaps we can have for the block group we can only add free space
to the bitmaps, but since the bitmap is on the cluster we can't find it and we
try to create another one. This would result in a panic because the total
bitmaps was bigger than the max bitmaps that were allowed. This patch fixes
this by checking to see if we have a cluster, and then looking at the cluster rb
tree to see if it has a bitmap entry and if it does and that space belongs to
that bitmap, go ahead and add it to that bitmap.
I could hit this panic every time with an fs_mark test within a couple of
minutes. With this patch I no longer hit the panic and fs_mark goes to
completion. Thanks,

If we are looking for a cluster in a particularly sparse or fragmented block
group, we will do a lot of looping through the free space tree looking for
various things, and if we need to look at bitmaps we will endup doing the whole
dance twice. So instead add the bitmap entries to a temporary list so if we
have to do the bitmap search we can just look through the list of entries we've
found quickly instead of having to loop through the entire tree again. Thanks,

Split the global inode_wb_list_lock into a per-bdi_writeback list_lock,
as it's currently the most contended lock in the system for metadata
heavy workloads. It won't help for single-filesystem workloads for
which we'll need the I/O-less balance_dirty_pages, but at least we
can dedicate a cpu to spinning on each bdi now for larger systems.

There is no point to carry different refill policies between for_kupdate
and other type of works. Use a consistent "refill b_io iff empty" policy
which can guarantee fairness in an easy to understand way.
A b_io refill will setup a _fixed_ work set with all currently eligible
inodes and start a new round of walk through b_io. The "fixed" work set
means no new inodes will be added to the work set during the walk.
Only when a complete walk over b_io is done, new inodes that are
eligible at the time will be enqueued and the walk be started over.
This procedure provides fairness among the inodes because it guarantees
each inode to be synced once and only once at each round. So all inodes
will be free from starvations.
This change relies on wb_writeback() to keep retrying as long as we made
some progress on cleaning some pages and/or inodes. Without that ability,
the old logic on background works relies on aggressively queuing all
eligible inodes into b_io at every time. But that's not a guarantee.
The below test script completes a slightly faster now:
2.6.39-rc3 2.6.39-rc3-dyn-expire+

It maintains roughly the same small vs. large file writeout shares, and
offers large files better chances to be written in nice 4M chunks.
Analyzes from Dave Chinner in great details:
Let's say we have lots of inodes with 100 dirty pages being created,
and one large writeback going on. We expire 8 new inodes for every
1024 pages we write back.
With the old code, we do:
b_more_io (large inode) -> b_io (1l)
8 newly expired inodes -> b_io (1l, 8s)
writeback large inode 1024 pages -> b_more_io
b_more_io (large inode) -> b_io (8s, 1l)
8 newly expired inodes -> b_io (8s, 1l, 8s)
writeback 8 small inodes 800 pages
1 large inode 224 pages -> b_more_io
b_more_io (large inode) -> b_io (8s, 1l)
8 newly expired inodes -> b_io (8s, 1l, 8s)
.....
Your new code:
b_more_io (large inode) -> b_io (1l)
8 newly expired inodes -> b_io (1l, 8s)
writeback large inode 1024 pages -> b_more_io
(b_io == 8s)
writeback 8 small inodes 800 pages
b_io empty: (1800 pages written)
b_more_io (large inode) -> b_io (1l)
14 newly expired inodes -> b_io (1l, 14s)
writeback large inode 1024 pages -> b_more_io
(b_io == 14s)
writeback 10 small inodes 1000 pages
1 small inode 24 pages -> b_more_io (1l, 1s(24))
writeback 5 small inodes 500 pages
b_io empty: (2548 pages written)
b_more_io (large inode) -> b_io (1l, 1s(24))
20 newly expired inodes -> b_io (1l, 1s(24), 20s)
......
Rough progression of pages written at b_io refill:
Old code:
total large file % of writeback
1024 224 21.9% (fixed)
New code:
total large file % of writeback
1800 1024 ~55%
2550 1024 ~40%
3050 1024 ~33%
3500 1024 ~29%
3950 1024 ~26%
4250 1024 ~24%
4500 1024 ~22.7%
4700 1024 ~21.7%
4800 1024 ~21.3%
4800 1024 ~21.3%
(pretty much steady state from here)
Ok, so the steady state is reached with a similar percentage of
writeback to the large file as the existing code. Ok, that's good,
but providing some evidence that is doesn't change the shared of
writeback to the large should be in the commit message ;)
The other advantage to this is that we always write 1024 page chunks
to the large file, rather than smaller "whatever remains" chunks.

Dynamically compute the dirty expire timestamp at queue_io() time.
writeback_control.older_than_this used to be determined at entrance to
the kupdate writeback work. This _static_ timestamp may go stale if the
kupdate work runs on and on. The flusher may then stuck with some old
busy inodes, never considering newly expired inodes thereafter.
This has two possible problems:
- It is unfair for a large dirty inode to delay (for a long time) the
writeback of small dirty inodes.
- As time goes by, the large and busy dirty inode may contain only
_freshly_ dirtied pages. Ignoring newly expired dirty inodes risks
delaying the expired dirty pages to the end of LRU lists, triggering
the evil pageout(). Nevertheless this patch merely addresses part
of the problem.
v2: keep policy changes inside wb_writeback() and keep the
wbc.older_than_this visibility as suggested by Dave.

writeback_inodes_wb()/__writeback_inodes_sb() are not aggressive in that
they only populate possibly a subset of eligible inodes into b_io at
entrance time. When the queued set of inodes are all synced, they just
return, possibly with all queued inode pages written but still
wbc.nr_to_write > 0.
For kupdate and background writeback, there may be more eligible inodes
sitting in b_dirty when the current set of b_io inodes are completed. So
it is necessary to try another round of writeback as long as we made some
progress in this round. When there are no more eligible inodes, no more
inodes will be enqueued in queue_io(), hence nothing could/will be
synced and we may safely bail.
For example, imagine 100 inodes
i0, i1, i2, ..., i90, i91, i99
At queue_io() time, i90-i99 happen to be expired and moved to s_io for
IO. When finished successfully, if their total size is less than
MAX_WRITEBACK_PAGES, nr_to_write will be > 0. Then wb_writeback() will
quit the background work (w/o this patch) while it's still over
background threshold. This will be a fairly normal/frequent case I guess.
Now that we do tagged sync and update inode->dirtied_when after the sync,
this change won't livelock sync(1). I actually tried to write 1 page
per 1ms with this command
write-and-fsync -n10000 -S 1000 -c 4096 /fs/test
and do sync(1) at the same time. The sync completes quickly on ext4,
xfs, btrfs.

The flusher works on dirty inodes in batches, and may quit prematurely
if the batch of inodes happen to be metadata-only dirtied: in this case
wbc->nr_to_write won't be decreased at all, which stands for "no pages
written" but also mis-interpreted as "no progress".
So introduce writeback_control.inodes_written to count the inodes get
cleaned from VFS POV. A non-zero value means there are some progress on
writeback, in which case more writeback can be tried.

Explicitly update .dirtied_when on synced inodes, so that they are no
longer considered for writeback in the next round.
It can prevent both of the following livelock schemes:
- while true; do echo data >> f; done
- while true; do touch f; done (in theory)
The exact livelock condition is, during sync(1):
(1) no new inodes are dirtied
(2) an inode being actively dirtied
On (2), the inode will be tagged and synced with .nr_to_write=LONG_MAX.
When finished, it will be redirty_tail()ed because it's still dirty
and (.nr_to_write > 0). redirty_tail() won't update its ->dirtied_when
on condition (1). The sync work will then revisit it on the next
queue_io() and find it eligible again because its old ->dirtied_when
predates the sync work start time.
We'll do more aggressive "keep writeback as long as we wrote something"
logic in wb_writeback(). The "use LONG_MAX .nr_to_write" trick in commit
b9543dac5bbc ("writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback") will
no longer be enough to stop sync livelock.

sync(2) is performed in two stages: the WB_SYNC_NONE sync and the
WB_SYNC_ALL sync. Identify the first stage with .tagged_writepages and
do livelock prevention for it, too.
Jan's commit f446daaea9 ("mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance
using page tagging") is a partial fix in that it only fixed the
WB_SYNC_ALL phase livelock.
Although ext4 is tested to no longer livelock with commit f446daaea9,
it may due to some "redirty_tail() after pages_skipped" effect which
is by no means a guarantee for _all_ the file systems.
Note that writeback_inodes_sb() is called by not only sync(), they are
treated the same because the other callers also need livelock prevention.
Impact: It changes the order in which pages/inodes are synced to disk.
Now in the WB_SYNC_NONE stage, it won't proceed to write the next inode
until finished with the current inode.

If user space attempts to remove a non-existent file or directory, and
the file system is mounted read-only, return ENOENT instead of EROFS.
Either error code is arguably valid/correct, but ENOENT is a more
specific error message.

Callers of lmLogOpen() expect it to return -E... on failure exits, which
is what it returns, except for the case of blkdev_get_by_dev() failure.
It that case lmLogOpen() return the error with the wrong sign...

When signing is enabled, the first session that's established on a
socket will cause a printk like this to pop:
CIFS VFS: Unexpected SMB signature
This is because the key exchange hasn't happened yet, so the signature
field is bogus. Don't try to check the signature on the socket until the
first session has been established. Also, eliminate the specific check
for SMB_COM_NEGOTIATE since this check covers that case too.

fix for commit 4795bb37effb7b8fe77e2d2034545d062d3788a8, nfsd: break
lease on unlink, link, and rename
if the LINK operation breaks a delegation, it returns NFS4ERR_NOENT
(which is not a valid error in rfc 5661) instead of NFS4ERR_DELAY.
the return value of nfsd_break_lease() in nfsd_link() must be
converted from host_err to err

Commit b0b0c0a26e84 "nfsd: add proc file listing kernel's gss_krb5
enctypes" added an nunnecessary dependency of nfsd on the auth_rpcgss
module.
It's a little ad hoc, but since the only piece of information nfsd needs
from rpcsec_gss_krb5 is a single static string, one solution is just to
share it with an include file.
