The struct xfs_dabuf now only tracks a single xfs_buf and all the information it holds can be gained directly from the xfs_buf. Hence we can remove the struct dabuf and pass the xfs_buf around everywhere. Kill the struct dabuf and the associated infrastructure.

discontigous buffer in separate buffer format structures. This means log recovery will recover all the changes on a per segment basis without requiring any knowledge of the fact that it was logged from a compound buffer. To do this, we need to be able to determine what buffer segment any given offset into the compound buffer sits over. This enables us to translate the dirty bitmap in the number of separate buffer format structures required. We also need to be able to determine the number of bitmap elements that a given buffer segment has, as this determines the size of the buffer format structure. Hence we need to be able to determine the both the start offset into the buffer and the length of a given segment to be able to calculate this. With this information, we can preallocate, build and format the correct log vector array for each segment in a compound buffer to appear exactly the same as individually logged buffers in the log.

To support discontiguous buffers in the buffer cache, we need to separate the cache index variables from the I/O map. While this is currently a 1:1 mapping, discontiguous buffer support will break this relationship. However, for caching purposes, we can still treat them the same as a contiguous buffer - the block number of the first block and the length of the buffer - as that is still a unique representation. Also, the only way we will ever access the discontiguous regions of buffers is via bulding the complete buffer in the first place, so using the initial block number and entire buffer length is a sane way to index the buffers. Add a block mapping vector construct to the xfs_buf and use it in the places where we are doing IO instead of the current b_bn/b_length variables.

The struct xfs_buf_log_format wants to think the dirty bitmap is variable sized. In fact, it is variable size on disk simply due to the way we map it from the in-memory structure, but we still just use a fixed size memory allocation for the in-memory structure. Hence it makes no sense to set the function up as a variable sized structure when we already know it's maximum size, and we always allocate it as such. Simplify the structure by making the dirty bitmap a fixed sized array and just using the size of the structure for the allocation size. This will make it much simpler to allocate and manipulate an array of format structures for discontiguous buffer support. The previous struct xfs_buf_log_item size according to /proc/slabinfo was 224 bytes. pahole doesn't give the same size because of the variable size definition. With this modification, pahole reports the same as /proc/slabinfo: /* size: 224, cachelines: 4, members: 6 */ Because the xfs_buf_log_item size is now determined by the maximum supported block size we introduce a dependency on xfs_alloc_btree.h. Avoid this dependency by moving the idefines for the maximum block sizes supported to xfs_types.h with all the other max/min type defines to avoid any new dependencies.

Commit de1cbee4 which removed b_file_offset in favor of b_bn introduced a bug causing xfs_buf_allocate_memory() to overestimate the number of necessary pages. The problem is that xfs_buf_alloc() sets b_bn to -1 and thus effectively every buffer is straddling a page boundary which causes xfs_buf_allocate_memory() to allocate two pages and use vmalloc() for access which is unnecessary. Dave says xfs_buf_alloc() doesn't need to set b_bn to -1 anymore since the buffer is inserted into the cache only after being fully initialized now. So just make xfs_buf_alloc() fill in proper block number from the beginning.

An inode in the AIL can be flush locked and marked stale if a cluster free transaction occurs at the right time. The inode item is then marked as flushing, which causes xfsaild to spin and leaves the filesystem stalled. This is reproduced by running xfstests 273 in a loop for an extended period of time. Check for stale inodes before the flush lock. This marks the inode as pinned, leads to a log flush and allows the filesystem to proceed.

On filesytems with a block size smaller than PAGE_SIZE we currently have a problem with unwritten extents. If a we have multi-block page for which an unwritten extent has been allocated, and only some of the buffers have been written to, and they are not contiguous, we can expose stale data from disk in the blocks between the writes after extent conversion. Example of a page with unwritten and real data. buffer content 0 empty b_state = 0 1 DATA b_state = 0x1023 Uptodate,Dirty,Mapped,Unwritten 2 DATA b_state = 0x1023 Uptodate,Dirty,Mapped,Unwritten 3 empty b_state = 0 4 empty b_state = 0 5 DATA b_state = 0x1023 Uptodate,Dirty,Mapped,Unwritten 6 DATA b_state = 0x1023 Uptodate,Dirty,Mapped,Unwritten 7 empty b_state = 0 Buffers 1, 2, 5, and 6 have been written to, leaving 0, 3, 4, and 7 empty. Currently buffers 1, 2, 5, and 6 are added to a single ioend, and when IO has completed, extent conversion creates a real extent from block 1 through block 6, leaving 0 and 7 unwritten. However buffers 3 and 4 were not written to disk, so stale data is exposed from those blocks on a subsequent read. Fix this by setting iomap_valid = 0 when we find a buffer that is not Uptodate. This ensures that buffers 5 and 6 are not added to the same ioend as buffers 1 and 2. Later these blocks will be converted into two separate real extents, leaving the blocks in between unwritten.

Btrfs has to make sure we have space to allocate new blocks in order to modify the inode, so updating time can fail. We've gotten around this by having our own file_update_time but this is kind of a pain, and Christoph has indicated he would like to make xfs do something different with atime updates. So introduce ->update_time, where we will deal with i_version an a/m/c time updates and indicate which changes need to be made. The normal version just does what it has always done, updates the time and marks the inode dirty, and then filesystems can choose to do something different. I've gone through all of the users of file_update_time and made them check for errors with the exception of the fault code since it's complicated and I wasn't quite sure what to do there, also Jan is going to be pushing the file time updates into page_mkwrite for those who have it so that should satisfy btrfs and make it not a big deal to check the file_update_time() return code in the generic fault path.

There's a sign problem in the error handling path of xfs_bmapi_reserve_delalloc() because xfs_trans_unreserve_quota_nblks() simple negates the value passed - which doesn't work for an unsigned variable.

fsstress has a particular effective way of stopping debug XFS kernels. We keep seeing assert failures due finding delayed allocation extents where there should be none. This shows up when extracting extent maps and we are holding all the locks we should be to prevent races, so this really makes no sense to see these errors. After checking that fsstress does not use mmap, it occurred to me that fsstress uses something that no sane application uses - the XFS_IOC_ALLOCSP ioctl interfaces for preallocation. These interfaces do allocation of blocks beyond EOF without using preallocation, and then call setattr to extend and zero the allocated blocks. THe problem here is this is a buffered write, and hence the allocation is a delayed allocation. Unlike the buffered IO path, the allocation and zeroing are not serialised using the IOLOCK. Hence the ALLOCSP operation can race with operations holding the iolock to prevent buffered IO operations from occurring.
