The delayed reference queue maintains pending operations that need to
be done to the extent allocation tree.  These are processed by
finding records in the tree that are not currently being processed one at
a time.

This is slow because it uses lots of time searching through the rbtree
and because it creates lock contention on the extent allocation tree
when lots of different procs are running delayed refs at the same time.

This commit changes things to grab a cluster of refs for processing,
using a cursor into the rbtree as the starting point of the next search.
This way we walk smoothly through the rbtree.

The extent allocation tree maintains a reference count and full
back reference information for every extent allocated in the
filesystem.  For subvolume and snapshot trees, every time
a block goes through COW, the new copy of the block adds a reference
on every block it points to.

If a btree node points to 150 leaves, then the COW code needs to go
and add backrefs on 150 different extents, which might be spread all
over the extent allocation tree.

These updates currently happen during btrfs_cow_block, and most COWs
happen during btrfs_search_slot.  btrfs_search_slot has locks held
on both the parent and the node we are COWing, and so we really want
to avoid IO during the COW if we can.

This commit adds an rbtree of pending reference count updates and extent
allocations.  The tree is ordered by byte number of the extent and byte number
of the parent for the back reference.  The tree allows us to:

1) Modify back references in something close to disk order, reducing seeks
2) Significantly reduce the number of modifications made as block pointers
are balanced around
3) Do all of the extent insertion and back reference modifications outside
of the performance critical btrfs_search_slot code.

#3 has the added benefit of greatly reducing the btrfs stack footprint.
The extent allocation tree modifications are done without the deep
(and somewhat recursive) call chains used in the past.

These delayed back reference updates must be done before the transaction
commits, and so the rbtree is tied to the transaction.  Throttling is
implemented to help keep the queue of backrefs at a reasonable size.

Since there was a similar mechanism in place for the extent tree
extents, that is removed and replaced by the delayed reference tree.

In order to avoid doing expensive extent management with tree locks held,
btrfs_search_slot will preallocate tree blocks for use by COW without
any tree locks held.

A later commit moves all of the extent allocation work for COW into
a delayed update mechanism, and this preallocation will no longer be
required.

Snapshot creation happens at a specific time during transaction commit.  We
need to make sure the code called by snapshot creation doesn't wait
for the running transaction to commit.

This changes btrfs_delete_inode and finish_pending_snaps to use
btrfs_join_transaction instead of btrfs_start_transaction to avoid deadlocks.

It would be better if btrfs_delete_inode didn't use the join, but the

Subvols and snapshots can now be referenced from any point in the directory

Forward refs are added so that we know all of the subvols and

Before, all snapshots and subvolumes lived in a single flat directory.  This
was awkward and confusing because the single flat directory was only writable
with the ioctls.

This commit changes the ioctls to create subvols and snapshots at any
point in the directory tree.  This requires making separate ioctls for
snapshot and subvol creation instead of a combining them into one.

The subvol ioctl does:

btrfsctl -S subvol_name parent_dir

After the ioctl is done subvol_name lives inside parent_dir.

The snapshot ioctl does:

btrfsctl -s path_for_snapshot root_to_snapshot

path_for_snapshot can be an absolute or relative path.  btrfsctl breaks it up
into directory and basename components.

root_to_snapshot can be any file or directory in the FS.  The snapshot
is taken of the entire root where that file lives.

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.

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.

This patch improves the space balancing code to keep more sharing
of tree blocks. The only case that breaks sharing of tree blocks is
data extents get fragmented during balancing. The main changes in
this patch are:

Add a 'drop sub-tree' function. This solves the problem in old code
that BTRFS_HEADER_FLAG_WRITTEN check breaks sharing of tree block.

Remove relocation mapping tree. Relocation mappings are stored in
struct btrfs_ref_path and updated dynamically during walking up/down
the reference path. This reduces CPU usage and simplifies code.

This patch also fixes a bug. Root items for reloc trees should be
updated in btrfs_free_reloc_root.

This patch updates the space balancing code to utilize the new
backref format.  Before, btrfs-vol -b would break any COW links
on data blocks or metadata.  This was slow and caused the amount
of space used to explode if a large number of snapshots were present.

The new code can keeps the sharing of all data extents and
most of the tree blocks.

To maintain the sharing of data extents, the space balance code uses
a seperate inode hold data extent pointers, then updates the references
to point to the new location.

To maintain the sharing of tree blocks, the space balance code uses
reloc trees to relocate tree blocks in reference counted roots.
There is one reloc tree for each subvol, and all reloc trees share
same root key objectid. Reloc trees are snapshots of the latest
committed roots of subvols (root->commit_root).

To relocate a tree block referenced by a subvol, there are two steps.
COW the block through subvol's reloc tree, then update block pointer in
the subvol to point to the new block. Since all reloc trees share
same root key objectid, doing special handing for tree blocks
owned by them is easy. Once a tree block has been COWed in one
reloc tree, we can use the resulting new block directly when the
same block is required to COW again through other reloc trees.
In this way, relocated tree blocks are shared between reloc trees,
so they are also shared between subvols.

This is the same way the transaction code makes sure that all the
other tree blocks are safely on disk.  There's an extent_io tree
for each root, and any blocks allocated to the tree logs are
recorded in that tree.

At tree-log sync, the extent_io tree is walked to flush down the
dirty pages and wait for them.

The main benefit is less time spent walking the tree log and skipping
clean pages, and getting sequential IO down to the drive.

* Pin down data blocks to prevent them from being reallocated like so:

trans 1: allocate file extent
trans 2: free file extent
trans 3: free file extent during old snapshot deletion
trans 3: allocate file extent to new file
trans 3: fsync new file

Before the tree logging code, this was legal because the fsync
would commit the transation that did the final data extent free
and the transaction that allocated the extent to the new file
at the same time.

With the tree logging code, the tree log subtransaction can commit
before the transaction that freed the extent.  If we crash,
we're left with two different files using the extent.

* Don't wait in start_transaction if log replay is going on.  This
avoids deadlocks from iput while we're cleaning up link counts in the
replay code.

* Don't deadlock in replay_one_name by trying to read an inode off
the disk while holding paths for the directory

* Hold the buffer lock while we mark a buffer as written.  This
closes a race where someone is changing a buffer while we write it.
They are supposed to mark it dirty again after they change it, but

File syncs and directory syncs are optimized by copying their
items into a special (copy-on-write) log tree.  There is one log tree per

subvolume.  See tree-log.c for all the details.

Commit 597:466b27332893 (btrfs_start_transaction: wait for commits in
progress) breaks the transaction start/stop ioctls by making
btrfs_start_transaction conditionally wait for the next transaction to
start.  If an application artificially is holding a transaction open,
things deadlock.

This workaround maintains a count of open ioctl-initiated transactions in
fs_info, and avoids wait_current_trans() if any are currently open (in
start_transaction() and btrfs_throttle()).  The start transaction ioctl
uses a new btrfs_start_ioctl_transaction() that _does_ call
wait_current_trans(), effectively pushing the join/wait decision to the
outer ioctl-initiated transaction.

This more or less neuters btrfs_throttle() when ioctl-initiated
transactions are in use, but that seems like a pretty fundamental
consequence of wrapping lots of write()'s in a transaction.  Btrfs has no
way to tell if the application considers a given operation as part of it's
transaction.

Obviously, if the transaction start/stop ioctls aren't being used, there
is no effect on current behavior.

A btree block cow has two parts, the first is to allocate a destination
block and the second is to copy the old bock over.

The first part needs locks in the extent allocation tree, and may need to
do IO.  This changeset splits that into a separate function that can be
called without any tree locks held.

btrfs_search_slot is changed to drop its path and start over if it has
to COW a contended block.  This often means that many writers will
pre-alloc a new destination for a the same contended block, but they
cache their prealloc for later use on lower levels in the tree.

To check whether a given file extent is referenced by multiple snapshots, the
checker walks down the fs tree through dead root and checks all tree blocks in
the path.

We can easily detect whether a given tree block is directly referenced by other
snapshot. We can also detect any indirect reference from other snapshot by
checking reference's generation. The checker can always detect multiple
references, but can't reliably detect cases of single reference. So btrfs may
do file data cow even there is only one reference.
