When we read inodes via bulkstat, we generally only read them once
and then throw them away - they never get used again. If we retain
them in cache, then it simply causes the working set of inodes and
other cached items to be reclaimed just so the inode cache can grow.

Avoid this problem by marking inodes read by bulkstat not to be
cached and check this flag in .drop_inode to determine whether the
inode should be added to the VFS LRU or not. If the inode lookup
hits an already cached inode, then don't set the flag. If the inode
lookup hits an inode marked with no cache flag, remove the flag and
allow it to be cached once the current reference goes away.

Inodes marked as not cached will get cleaned up by the background
inode reclaim or via memory pressure, so they will still generate
some short term cache pressure. They will, however, be reclaimed
much sooner and in preference to cache hot inodes.

We currently have significant issues with the amount of stack that
allocation in XFS uses, especially in the writeback path. We can
easily consume 4k of stack between mapping the page, manipulating
the bmap btree and allocating blocks from the free list. Not to
mention btree block readahead and other functionality that issues IO
in the allocation path.

As a result, we can no longer fit allocation in the writeback path
in the stack space provided on x86_64. To alleviate this problem,
introduce an allocation workqueue and move all allocations to a
seperate context. This can be easily added as an interposing layer
into xfs_alloc_vextent(), which takes a single argument structure
and does not return until the allocation is complete or has failed.

To do this, add a work structure and a completion to the allocation
args structure. This allows xfs_alloc_vextent to queue the args onto
the workqueue and wait for it to be completed by the worker. This
can be done completely transparently to the caller.

The worker function needs to ensure that it sets and clears the
PF_TRANS flag appropriately as it is being run in an active
transaction context. Work can also be queued in a memory reclaim
context, so a rescuer is needed for the workqueue.

We almost never block on i_flock, the exception is synchronous inode

that we abuse as a semaphore just implement it as a bitlock that uses
a bit waitqueue for the rare sleeping path.  This primarily is a
tradeoff between a much smaller inode and a faster non-blocking
path vs faster wakeups, and we are much better off with the former.

A small downside is that we will lose lockdep checking for i_flock, but

Since Linux 2.6.36 the writeback code has introduces various measures for
live lock prevention during sync().  Unfortunately some of these are
actively harmful for the XFS model, where the inode gets marked dirty for
metadata from the data I/O handler.

The older_than_this checks that are now more strictly enforced since

    writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback

by only calling into __writeback_inodes_sb and thus only sampling the
current cut off time once.  But on a slow enough devices the previous
asynchronous sync pass might not have fully completed yet, and thus XFS
might mark metadata dirty only after that sampling of the cut off time for
the blocking pass already happened.  I have not myself reproduced this
myself on a real system, but by introducing artificial delay into the
XFS I/O completion workqueues it can be reproduced easily.

Fix this by iterating over all XFS inodes in ->sync_fs and log all that
are dirty.  This might log inode that only got redirtied after the
previous pass, but given how cheap delayed logging of inodes is it
isn't a major concern for performance.

If the writeback code writes back an inode because it has expired we currently
use the non-blockin ->write_inode path.  This means any inode that is pinned
is skipped.  With delayed logging and a workload that has very little log
traffic otherwise it is very likely that an inode that gets constantly
written to is always pinned, and thus we keep refusing to write it.  The VM
writeback code at that point redirties it and doesn't try to write it again
for another 30 seconds.  This means under certain scenarious time based
metadata writeback never happens.

Fix this by calling into xfs_log_inode for kupdate in addition to data
integrity syncs, and thus transfer the inode to the log ASAP.

 - it doesn't use the HIGHPRI flag to queue at the head of the queue of

On of the problems with the current inode flush at ENOSPC is that we
queue a flush per ENOSPC event, regardless of how many are already
queued. Thi can result in    hundreds of queued flushes, most of
which simply burn CPU scanned and do no real work. This simply slows
down allocation at ENOSPC.

We really only need one active flush at a time, and we can easily
implement that via the new xfs_syncd_wq. All we need to do is queue
a flush if one is not already active, then block waiting for the
currently active flush to complete. The result is that we only ever
have a single ENOSPC inode flush active at a time and this greatly
reduces the overhead of ENOSPC processing.

On my 2p test machine, this results in tests exercising ENOSPC
conditions running significantly faster - 042 halves execution time,
083 drops from 60s to 5s, etc - while not introducing test

For laptop mode, we wait on completion for the sync works, so ensure

During mount, we can do a quotacheck that involves a bulkstat pass
on all inodes. If there are more inodes in the filesystem than can
be held in memory, we require the inode cache shrinker to run to
ensure that we don't run out of memory.

Unfortunately, the inode cache shrinker is not registered until we
get to the end of the superblock setup process, which is after a
quotacheck is run if it is needed. Hence we need to register the
inode cache shrinker earlier in the mount process so that we don't
OOM during mount. This requires that we also initialise the syncd
work before we register the shrinker, so we nee dto juggle that
around as well.

While there, make sure that we have set up the block sizes in the
VFS superblock correctly before the quotacheck is run so that any
inodes that are cached as a result of the quotacheck have their
block size fields set up correctly.

There is an ABBA deadlock between synchronous inode flushing in
xfs_reclaim_inode and xfs_icluster_free. xfs_icluster_free locks the
buffer, then takes inode ilocks, whilst synchronous reclaim takes
the ilock followed by the buffer lock in xfs_iflush().

To avoid this deadlock, separate the inode cluster buffer locking
semantics from the synchronous inode flush semantics, allowing
callers to attempt to lock the buffer but still issue synchronous IO
if it can get the buffer. This requires xfs_iflush() calls that
currently use non-blocking semantics to pass SYNC_TRYLOCK rather
than 0 as the flags parameter.

This allows xfs_reclaim_inode to avoid the deadlock on the buffer
lock and detect the failure so that it can drop the inode ilock and
restart the reclaim attempt on the inode. This allows
xfs_ifree_cluster to obtain the inode lock, mark the inode stale and
release it and hence defuse the deadlock situation. It also has the
pleasant side effect of avoiding IO in xfs_reclaim_inode when it
tries to next reclaim the inode as it is now marked stale.
