ext4 has a data corruption case when doing non-block-aligned
asynchronous direct IO into a sparse file, as demonstrated
by xfstest 240.

The root cause is that while ext4 preallocates space in the
hole, mappings of that space still look "new" and 
dio_zero_block() will zero out the unwritten portions.  When
more than one AIO thread is going, they both find this "new"
block and race to zero out their portion; this is uncoordinated
and causes data corruption.

Dave Chinner fixed this for xfs by simply serializing all
unaligned asynchronous direct IO.  I've done the same here.
The difference is that we only wait on conversions, not all IO.
This is a very big hammer, and I'm not very pleased with
stuffing this into ext4_file_write().  But since ext4 is
DIO_LOCKING, we need to serialize it at this high level.

I tried to move this into ext4_ext_direct_IO, but by then
we have the i_mutex already, and we will wait on the
work queue to do conversions - which must also take the
i_mutex.  So that won't work.

This was originally exposed by qemu-kvm installing to
a raw disk image with a normal sector-63 alignment.  I've
tested a backport of this patch with qemu, and it does
avoid the corruption.  It is also quite a lot slower
(14 min for package installs, vs. 8 min for well-aligned)
but I'll take slow correctness over fast corruption any day.

Mingming suggested that we can track outstanding
conversions, and wait on those so that non-sparse
files won't be affected, and I've implemented that here;
unaligned AIO to nonsparse files won't take a perf hit.

In 2.6.37 I was running into oopses with repeated module
loads & unloads.  I tracked this down to:

fb1813f4 ext4: use dedicated slab caches for group_info structures

(this was in addition to the features advert unload problem)

The kstrdup & subsequent kfree of the cache name was causing
a double free.  In slub, at least, if I read it right it allocates
& frees the name itself, slab seems to do something different...
so in slub I think we were leaking -our- cachep->name, and double
freeing the one allocated by slub.

After getting lost in slab/slub/slob a bit, I just looked at other
sized-caches that get allocated.  jbd2, biovec, sgpool all do it
more or less the way jbd2 does.  Below patch follows the jbd2
method of dynamically allocating a cache at mount time from
a list of static names.

(This might also possibly fix a race creating the caches with
parallel mounts running).

This fixes a corruption problem with the multi-block
writepages submittal change for ext4, from commit
bd2d0210 ("ext4: use bio
layer instead of buffer layer in mpage_da_submit_io").

(Note that this corruption is not present in 2.6.37 on
ext4, because the corruption was detected after the
feature was merged in 2.6.37-rc1, and so it was turned
off by adding a non-default mount option,
mblk_io_submit.  With this commit, which hopefully
fixes the last of the bugs with this feature, we'll be
able to turn on this performance feature by default in
2.6.38, and remove the mblk_io_submit option.)

The ext4 code path to bundle multiple pages for
writeback in ext4_bio_write_page() had a bug: we should
be clearing buffer head dirty flags *before* we submit
the bio, not in the completion routine.

The patch below was tested on 2.6.37 under KVM with the
postgresql script which was submitted by Jon Nelson as
documented in commit 1449032b.

Without the patch, I'd hit the corruption problem about
50-70% of the time.  With the patch, I executed the
script > 100 times with no corruption seen.

I also fixed a bug to make sure ext4_end_bio() doesn't
dereference the bio after the bio_put() call.

Currently all filesystems except XFS implement fallocate asynchronously,
while XFS forced a commit.  Both of these are suboptimal - in case of O_SYNC
I/O we really want our allocation on disk, especially for the !KEEP_SIZE
case where we actually grow the file with user-visible zeroes.  On the
other hand always commiting the transaction is a bad idea for fast-path
uses of fallocate like for example in recent Samba versions.   Given
that block allocation is a data plane operation anyway change it from
an inode operation to a file operation so that we have the file structure
available that lets us check for O_SYNC.

This also includes moving the code around for a few of the filesystems,
and remove the already unnedded S_ISDIR checks given that we only wire
up fallocate for regular files.

As Al Viro pointed out path resolution during Q_QUOTAON calls to quotactl
is prone to deadlocks. We hold s_umount semaphore for reading during the
path resolution and resolution itself may need to acquire the semaphore
for writing when e. g. autofs mountpoint is passed.

Solve the problem by performing the resolution before we get hold of the
superblock (and thus s_umount semaphore). The whole thing is complicated
by the fact that some filesystems (OCFS2) ignore the path argument. So to
distinguish between filesystem which want the path and which do not we
introduce new .quota_on_meta callback which does not get the path. OCFS2
then uses this callback instead of old .quota_on.

When s_first_data_block is not zero (which happens e.g. when block size is 1KB)
and trim ioctl is called to start trimming from block 0, the math in

returns EINVAL which is kind of unexpected and we probably don't want

This function was never implemented, except for a BUG_ON which was
tripping when ext4 is run without a journal.  The problem is that
although the comment asserts that "truncate (which is the only way to
free block) discards all preallocations", ext4_free_blocks() is also
called in various error recovery paths when blocks have been
allocated, but for various reasons, we were not able to use those data
blocks (for example, because we ran out of memory while trying to
manipulate the extent tree, or some other similar situation).

In addition to the fact that this function isn't implemented except
for the incorrect BUG_ON, the single caller of this function,
ext4_free_blocks(), doesn't use it all if the journal is enabled.

So remove the (stub) function entirely for now.  If we decide it's
better to add it back, it's only going to be useful with a relatively
large number of code changes anyway.

Ted first found the bug when running 2.6.36 kernel with dioread_nolock
mount option that xfstests #13 complained about wrong file size during fsck.
However, the bug exists in the older kernels as well although it is
somehow harder to trigger.

The problem is that ext4_end_io_work() can happen after we have truncated an
inode to a smaller size. Then when ext4_end_io_work() calls 
ext4_convert_unwritten_extents(), we may reallocate some blocks that have 
been truncated, so the inode size becomes inconsistent with the allocated
blocks. 

The following patch flushes the i_completed_io_list during truncate to reduce 
the risk that some pending end_io requests are executed later and convert 
already truncated blocks to initialized. 

Note that although the fix helps reduce the problem a lot there may still 
be a race window between vmtruncate() and ext4_end_io_work(). The fundamental
problem is that if vmtruncate() is called without either i_mutex or i_alloc_sem
held, it can race with an ongoing write request so that the io_end request is
processed later when the corresponding blocks have been truncated.

Ted and I have discussed the problem offline and we saw a few ways to fix
the race completely:

a) We guarantee that i_mutex lock and i_alloc_sem write lock are both hold 
whenever vmtruncate() is called. The i_mutex lock prevents any new write
requests from entering writeback and the i_alloc_sem prevents the race
from ext4_page_mkwrite(). Currently we hold both locks if vmtruncate()
is called from do_truncate(), which is probably the most common case.
However, there are places where we may call vmtruncate() without holding
either i_mutex or i_alloc_sem. I would like to ask for other people's
opinions on what locks are expected to be held before calling vmtruncate().
There seems a disagreement among the callers of that function.

b) We change the ext4 write path so that we change the extent tree to contain 
the newly allocated blocks and update i_size both at the same time --- when 
the write of the data blocks is completed.

c) We add some additional locking to synchronize vmtruncate() and 
ext4_end_io_work(). This approach may have performance implications so we
need to be careful.

All of the above proposals may require more substantial changes, so
we may consider to take the following patch as a bandaid.

ext4_ext_find_goal() returns an ideal physical block number that the block
allocator tries to allocate first. However, if a required file offset is
smaller than the existing extent's one, ext4_ext_find_goal() returns
a wrong block number because it may overflow at
"block - le32_to_cpu(ex->ee_block)". This patch fixes the problem.

ext4_ext_find_goal() will also return a wrong block number in case

RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:

- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
  permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
  to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
  the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
  page lock to follow page->mapping.

The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.

In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.

The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.
