Now that we use the VFS i_size field throughout XFS there is no need for the i_new_size field any more given that the VFS i_size field gets updated in ->write_end before unlocking the page, and thus is always uptodate when writeback could see a page. Removing i_new_size also has the advantage that we will never have to trim back di_size during a failed buffered write, given that it never gets updated past i_size. Note that currently the generic direct I/O code only updates i_size after calling our end_io handler, which requires a small workaround to make sure di_size actually makes it to disk. I hope to fix this properly in the generic code. A downside is that we lose the support for parallel non-overlapping O_DIRECT appending writes that recently was added. I don't think keeping the complex and fragile i_new_size infrastructure for this is a good tradeoff - if we really care about parallel appending writers we should investigate turning the iolock into a range lock, which would also allow for parallel non-overlapping buffered writers.

There is no fundamental need to keep an in-memory inode size copy in the XFS inode. We already have the on-disk value in the dinode, and the separate in-memory copy that we need for regular files only in the XFS inode. Remove the xfs_inode i_size field and change the XFS_ISIZE macro to use the VFS inode i_size field for regular files. Switch code that was directly accessing the i_size field in the xfs_inode to XFS_ISIZE, or in cases where we are limited to regular files direct access of the VFS inode i_size field. This also allows dropping some fairly complicated code in the write path which dealt with keeping the xfs_inode i_size uptodate with the VFS i_size that is getting updated inside ->write_end. Note that we do not bother resetting the VFS i_size when truncating a file that gets freed to zero as there is no point in doing so because the VFS inode is no longer in use at this point. Just relax the assert in xfs_ifree to only check the on-disk size instead.

xfs_bmapi() currently handles both extent map reading and allocation. As a result, the code is littered with "if (wr)" branches to conditionally do allocation operations if required. This makes the code much harder to follow and causes significant indent issues with the code. Given that read mapping is much simpler than allocation, we can split out read mapping from xfs_bmapi() and reuse the logic that we have already factored out do do all the hard work of handling the extent map manipulations. The results in a much simpler function for the common extent read operations, and will allow the allocation code to be simplified in another commit. Once xfs_bmapi_read() is implemented, convert all the callers of xfs_bmapi() that are only reading extents to use the new function.

Since the move to the new truncate sequence we call xfs_setattr to truncate down excessively instanciated blocks. As shown by the testcase in kernel.org BZ #22452 that doesn't work too well. Due to the confusion of the internal inode size, and the VFS inode i_size it zeroes data that it shouldn't. But full blown truncate seems like overkill here. We only instanciate delayed allocations in the write path, and given that we never released the iolock we can't have converted them to real allocations yet either. The only nasty case is pre-existing preallocation which we need to skip. We already do this for page discard during writeback, so make the delayed allocation block punching a generic function and call it from the failed write path as well as xfs_aops_discard_page. The callers are responsible for ensuring that partial blocks are not truncated away, and that they hold the ilock. Based on a fix originally from Christoph Hellwig. This version used filesystem blocks as the range unit. Signed-off-by: NDave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

Don't trylock the buffer. We are the only one ever locking it for a regular file address space, and trylock was only copied from the generic code which did it due to the old buffer based writeout in jbd. Also make sure to only write out the buffer if the iomap actually is valid, because we wouldn't have a proper mapping otherwise. In practice we will never get an invalid mapping here as the page lock guarantees truncate doesn't race with us, but better be safe than sorry. Also make sure we allocate a new ioend when crossing boundaries between mappings, just like we do for delalloc and unwritten extents. Again this currently doesn't matter as the I/O end handler only cares for the boundaries for unwritten extents, but this makes the code fully correct and the same as for delalloc/unwritten extents.

That asserts turns out to trigger a lot when running fsx on filesystems with small block sizes. The reason for that is that the assert is simply incorrect. !mapped and uptodate just mean this buffer covers a hole, and whenever we do a set_page_dirty we mark all blocks in the page dirty, no matter if they have data or not.

This removes more dead code that was somehow missed by commit 0d99519e (writeback: remove unused nonblocking and congestion checks). There are no behavior change except for the removal of two entries from one of the ext4 tracing interface. The nonblocking checks in ->writepages are no longer used because the flusher now prefer to block on get_request_wait() than to skip inodes on IO congestion. The latter will lead to more seeky IO. The nonblocking checks in ->writepage are no longer used because it's redundant with the WB_SYNC_NONE check. We no long set ->nonblocking in VM page out and page migration, because a) it's effectively redundant with WB_SYNC_NONE in current code b) it's old semantic of "Don't get stuck on request queues" is mis-behavior: that would skip some dirty inodes on congestion and page out others, which is unfair in terms of LRU age.

Convert XFS to the new truncate sequence. We still can have errors after updating the file size in xfs_setattr, but these are real I/O errors and lead to a transaction abort and filesystem shutdown, so they are not an issue. Errors from ->write_begin and write_end can now be handled correctly because we can actually get rid of the delalloc extents while previous the buffer state was stipped in block_invalidatepage. There is still no error handling for ->direct_IO, because doing so will need some major restructuring given that we only have the iolock shared and do not hold i_mutex at all. Fortunately leaving the normally allocated blocks behind there is not a major issue and this will get cleaned up by xfs_free_eofblock later.

This patch changes the direct I/O reads to not even use a completion handler, as we don't bother to use it at all, and to perform the unwritten extent conversions in caller context for synchronous direct I/O. For a small I/O size direct I/O workload on a consumer grade SSD, such as the untar of a kernel tree inside qemu this patch gives speedups of about 5%.
