This patch checks if i_goal is either zero or if doesn't exist
within any rgrp (i.e gfs2_blk2rgrpd() returns NULL). If so, it
assigns the ip->i_no_addr block as the i_goal.

There are two scenarios where a bad i_goal can result in a
-EBADSLT error.

1. Attempting to allocate to an existing inode:
Control reaches gfs2_inplace_reserve() and ip->i_goal is bad.
We need to fix i_goal here.

2. A new inode is created in a directory whose i_goal is hosed:
In this case, the parent dir's i_goal is copied onto the new
inode. Since the new inode is not yet created, the ip->i_no_addr
field is invalid and so, the fix in gfs2_inplace_reserve() as per
1) won't work in this scenario. We need to catch and fix it sooner
in the parent dir itself (gfs2_create_inode()), before it is
copied to the new inode.

GFS2 has a transaction glock, which must be grabbed for every
transaction, whose purpose is to deal with freezing the filesystem.
Aside from this involving a large amount of locking, it is very easy to
make the current fsfreeze code hang on unfreezing.

This patch rewrites how gfs2 handles freezing the filesystem. The
transaction glock is removed. In it's place is a freeze glock, which is
cached (but not held) in a shared state by every node in the cluster
when the filesystem is mounted. This lock only needs to be grabbed on
freezing, and actions which need to be safe from freezing, like
recovery.

When a node wants to freeze the filesystem, it grabs this glock
exclusively.  When the freeze glock state changes on the nodes (either
from shared to unlocked, or shared to exclusive), the filesystem does a
special log flush.  gfs2_log_flush() does all the work for flushing out
the and shutting down the incore log, and then it tries to grab the
freeze glock in a shared state again.  Since the filesystem is stuck in
gfs2_log_flush, no new transaction can start, and nothing can be written
to disk. Unfreezing the filesytem simply involes dropping the freeze
glock, allowing gfs2_log_flush() to grab and then release the shared
lock, so it is cached for next time.

However, in order for the unfreezing ioctl to occur, gfs2 needs to get a
shared lock on the filesystem root directory inode to check permissions.
If that glock has already been grabbed exclusively, fsfreeze will be
unable to get the shared lock and unfreeze the filesystem.

In order to allow the unfreeze, this patch makes gfs2 grab a shared lock
on the filesystem root directory during the freeze, and hold it until it
unfreezes the filesystem.  The functions which need to grab a shared
lock in order to allow the unfreeze ioctl to be issued now use the lock
grabbed by the freeze code instead.

The freeze and unfreeze code take care to make sure that this shared
lock will not be dropped while another process is using it.

This is another step towards improving the allocation of xattr
blocks at inode allocation time. Here we take advantage of
Christoph's recent work on ACLs to allocate a block for the
xattrs early if we know that we will be adding ACLs to the
inode later on. The advantage of that is that it is much
more likely that we'll get a contiguous run of two blocks
where the first is the inode and the second is the xattr block.

We still have to fall back to the original system in case we
don't get the requested two contiguous blocks, or in case the
ACLs are too large to fit into the block.

Future patches will move more of the ACL setting code further
up the gfs2_inode_create() function. Also, I'd like to be
able to do the same thing with the xattrs from LSMs in
due course, too. That way we should be able to slowly reduce
the number of independent transactions, at least in the
most common cases.

Each rgrp header is represented as a single extent on disk, so we
can calculate the position within the address space, since we are
using address spaces mapped 1:1 to the disk. This means that it
is possible to use the range based versions of filemap_fdatawrite/wait
and for invalidating the page cache.

Our eventual intent is to then be able to merge the address spaces
used for rgrps into a single address space, rather than to have
one for each glock, saving memory and reducing complexity.

Since during umount, the rgrp structures are disposed of before
the glocks, we need to store the extent information in the glock
so that is is available for a final invalidation. This patch uses
a field which is otherwise unused in rgrp glocks to do that, so
that we do not have to expand the size of a glock.

This is just basically a resend of a patch I posted earlier.
It didn't change from its original, except in diff offsets, etc:

This patch fixes a bug in the GFS2 block allocation code. The problem
starts if a process already has a multi-block reservation, but for
some reason, another process disqualifies it from further allocations.
For example, the other process might set on the GFS2_RDF_ERROR bit.
The process holding the reservation jumps to label skip_rgrp, but
that label comes after the code that removes the reservation from the
tree. Therefore, the no longer usable reservation is not removed from
the rgrp's reservations tree; it's lost. Eventually, the lost reservation
causes the count of reserved blocks to get off, and eventually that
causes a BUG_ON(rs->rs_rbm.rgd->rd_reserved < rs->rs_free) to trigger.
This patch moves the call to after label skip_rgrp so that the
disqualified reservation is properly removed from the tree, thus keeping
the rgrp rd_reserved count sane.

Here is a second try at a patch I posted earlier, which also implements
suggestions Steve made:

Before this patch, GFS2 would keep searching through all the rgrps
until it found one that had a chunk of free blocks big enough to
satisfy the size hint, which is based on the file write size,
regardless of whether the chunk was big enough to perform the write.
However, when doing big writes there may not be a large enough
chunk of free blocks in any rgrp, due to file system fragmentation.
The largest chunk may be big enough to satisfy the write request,
but it may not meet the ideal reservation size from the "size hint".
The writes would slow to a crawl because every write would search
every rgrp, then finally give up and default to a single-block write.
In my case, performance would drop from 425MB/s to 18KB/s, or 24000
times slower.

This patch basically makes it so that if we can't find a contiguous
chunk of blocks big enough to satisfy the sizehint, we'll use the
largest chunk of blocks we found that will still contain the write.
It does so by keeping track of the largest run of blocks within the
rgrp.

When setting the starting point for block allocation, there were calls

of there being an active reservation. The gfs2_rbm_from_block() function
can be quite slow, and since the two conversions were effectively a

The reservation for an inode should be cleared when it is truncated so
that we can start again at a different offset for future allocations.
We could try and do better than that, by resetting the search based on
where the truncation started from, but this is only a first step.

In addition, there are three callers of gfs2_rs_delete() but only one
of those should really be testing the value of i_writecount. While
we get away with that in the other cases currently, I think it would
be better if we made that test specific to the one case which
requires it.

This patch changes the multi-block allocation code, such that
directory inodes only get a single block reserved in the bitmap.
That way, the bitmaps are more tightly packed together, and there
are fewer spans of free blocks for in-use block reservations.
This means it takes less time to find a free span of blocks in the
bitmap, which speeds things up. This increases the performance of
some workloads by almost 2X. In Nate's mockup.py script (which does
(1) create dir, (2) create dir in dir, (3) create file in that dir)

This patch cleans up the inode creation code path in GFS2. After the
Orlov allocator was merged, a number of potential improvements are
now possible, and this is a first set of these.

The quota handling is now updated so that it matches the point in
the code where the allocation takes place. This means that the one
exception in gfs2_alloc_blocks relating to quota is now no longer
required, and we can use the generic code everywhere.

In addition the call to figure out whether we need to allocate any
extra blocks in order to add a directory entry is moved higher up
gfs2_create_inode. This means that if it returns an error, we
can deal with that at a stage where it is easier to handle that case.
The returned status cannot change during the function since we hold
an exclusive lock on the directory.

Two calls to gfs2_rindex_update have been changed to one, again at
the top of gfs2_create_inode to simplify error handling.

The time stamps are also now initialised earlier in the creation
process, this is gradually moving towards being able to remove the
call to gfs2_refresh_inode in gfs2_inode_create once we have all the
fields covered.

these values to be in terms of 512 byte sectors, even if the native
sector size for the device is different. Calling sb_issue_discard
with the BLOCK size instead ensures the correct block-to-512b-sector
translation. I verified that "minlen" is specified in blocks, so

In function rg_mblk_search, it's searching for multiple blocks in
a given state (e.g. "free"). If there's an active block reservation
its goal is the next free block of that. If the resource group
contains the dinode's goal block, that's used for the search. But
if neither is the case, it uses the rgrp's last allocated block.
That way, consecutive allocations appear after one another on media.
The problem comes in when you hit the end of the rgrp; it would never
start over and search from the beginning. This became a problem,
since if you deleted all the files and data from the rgrp, it would
never start over and find free blocks. So it had to keep searching
