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.

Large streaming reads make for large bios, which means each entry on the
list async work queues represents a large amount of data.  IO
congestion throttling on the device was kicking in before the async
worker threads decided a single thread was busy and needed some help.

The end result was that a streaming read would result in a single CPU
running at 100% instead of balancing the work off to other CPUs.

This patch also changes the pre-IO checksum lookup done by reads to
work on a per-bio basis instead of a per-page.  This results in many
extra btree lookups on large streaming reads.  Doing the checksum lookup
right before bio submit allows us to reuse searches while processing
adjacent offsets.

The memory reclaiming issue happens when snapshot exists. In that
case, some cache entries may not be used during old snapshot dropping,
so they will remain in the cache until umount.

The patch adds a field to struct btrfs_leaf_ref to record create time. Besides,
the patch makes all dead roots of a given snapshot linked together in order of
create time. After a old snapshot was completely dropped, we check the dead
root list and remove all cache entries created before the oldest dead root in
the list.

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.

A large reference cache is directly related to a lot of work pending
for the cleaner thread.  This throttles back new operations based on
the size of the reference cache so the cleaner thread will be able to keep
up.

Overall, this actually makes the FS faster because the cleaner thread will
be more likely to find things in cache.

This changes the reference cache to make a single cache per root
instead of one cache per transaction, and to key by the byte number
of the disk block instead of the keys inside.

This makes it much less likely to have cache misses if a snapshot
or something has an extra reference on a higher node or a leaf while
the first transaction that added the leaf into the cache is dropping.

Some throttling is added to functions that free blocks heavily so they
wait for old transactions to drop.

Much of the IO done while dropping snapshots is done looking up
leaves in the filesystem trees to see if they point to any extents and
to drop the references on any extents found.

This creates a cache so that IO isn't required.

Before setting an extent to delalloc, the code needs to wait for
pending ordered extents.

Also, the relocation code needs to wait for ordered IO before scanning
the block group again.  This is because the extents are not removed
until the IO for the new extents is finished

Lockdep has the notion of locking subclasses so that you can identify
locks you expect to be taken after other locks of the same class.  This
changes the per-extent buffer btree locking routines to use a subclass based
on the level in the tree.

Unfortunately, lockdep can only handle 8 total subclasses, and the btrfs
max level is also 8.  So when lockdep is on, use a lower max level.

Stress testing was showing data checksum errors, most of which were caused
by a lookup bug in the extent_map tree.  The tree was caching the last
pointer returned, and searches would check the last pointer first.

But, search callers also expect the search to return the very first
matching extent in the range, which wasn't always true with the last
pointer usage.

For now, the code to cache the last return value is just removed.  It is
easy to fix, but I think lookups are rare enough that it isn't required anymore.

This commit also replaces do_sync_mapping_range with a local copy of the
related functions.

Data checksumming is done right before the bio is sent down the IO stack,
which means a single bio might span more than one ordered extent.  In

btrfs_commit_transaction has to loop waiting for any writers in the

The old data=ordered code would force commit to wait until
all the data extents from the transaction were fully on disk.  This
introduced large latencies into the commit and stalled new writers
in the transaction for a long time.

The new code changes the way data allocations and extents work:

* When delayed allocation is filled, data extents are reserved, and
  the extent bit EXTENT_ORDERED is set on the entire range of the extent.
  A struct btrfs_ordered_extent is allocated an inserted into a per-inode
  rbtree to track the pending extents.

* As each page is written EXTENT_ORDERED is cleared on the bytes corresponding
  to that page.

* When all of the bytes corresponding to a single struct btrfs_ordered_extent
  are written, The previously reserved extent is inserted into the FS
  btree and into the extent allocation trees.  The checksums for the file
  data are also updated.

Allocations may need to read in block groups from the extent allocation tree,
which will require a tree search and take locks on the extent allocation
tree.  But, those locks might already be held in other places, leading
to deadlocks.

Since the alloc_mutex serializes everything right now, it is safe to
skip the btree locking while caching block groups.  A better fix will be
to either create a recursive lock or find a way to back off existing
locks while caching block groups.

Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

The allocation trees and the chunk trees are serialized via their own
dedicated mutexes.  This means allocation location is still not very
fine grained.

The main FS btree is protected by locks on each block in the btree.  Locks
are taken top / down, and as processing finishes on a given level of the
tree, the lock is released after locking the lower level.

The end result of a search is now a path where only the lowest level
is locked.  Releasing or freeing the path drops any locks held.

mount -o thread_pool_size changes the default, which is
min(num_cpus + 2, 8).  Larger thread pools would make more sense on
very large disk arrays.

Btrfs has been using workqueues to spread the checksumming load across
other CPUs in the system.  But, workqueues only schedule work on the
same CPU that queued the work, giving them a limited benefit for systems with
higher CPU counts.

This code adds a generic facility to schedule work with pools of kthreads,
and changes the bio submission code to queue bios up.  The queueing is
important to make sure large numbers of procs on the system don't
turn streaming workloads into random workloads by sending IO down
concurrently.

The end result of all of this is much higher performance (and CPU usage) when
doing checksumming on large machines.  Two worker pools are created,
one for writes and one for endio processing.  The two could deadlock if
we tried to service both from a single pool.

These ioctls let a user application hold a transaction open while it
performs a series of operations.  A final ioctl does a sync on the fs
(closing the current transaction).  This is the main requirement for
Ceph's OSD to be able to keep the data it's storing in a btrfs volume
consistent, and AFAICS it works just fine.  The application would do
something like

	fd = ::open("some/file", O_RDONLY);
	::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_START);
	/* do a bunch of stuff */
	::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_END);
or just
	::close(fd);

And to ensure it commits to disk,

	::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_SYNC);

When a transaction is held open, the trans_handle is attached to the
struct file (via private_data) so that it will get cleaned up if the
process dies unexpectedly.  A held transaction is also ended on fsync() to
avoid a deadlock.

A misbehaving application could also deliberately hold a transaction open,
effectively locking up the FS, so it may make sense to restrict something
like this to root or something.
