Nearly all places in the ext3/4 code which uses "unsigned long" is
probably a bug, since on 32-bit systems a ulong a 32-bits, which means
we are wasting stack space on 64-bit systems.

This patch removes the static sleep time in favor of a more self
optimizing approach where we measure the average amount of time it
takes to commit a transaction to disk and the ammount of time a
transaction has been running.  If somebody does a sync write or an
fsync() traditionally we would sleep for 1 jiffies, which depending on
the value of HZ could be a significant amount of time compared to how
long it takes to commit a transaction to the underlying storage.  With
this patch instead of sleeping for a jiffie, we check to see if the
amount of time this transaction has been running is less than the
average commit time, and if it is we sleep for the delta using
schedule_hrtimeout to give us a higher precision sleep time.  This
greatly benefits high end storage where you could end up sleeping for
longer than it takes to commit the transaction and therefore sitting
idle instead of allowing the transaction to be committed by keeping
the sleep time to a minimum so you are sure to always be doing
something.

A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run
without a journal.  Since that time I've integrated the excellent
comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs.  We're currently
running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without
a journal.  It just so happens that running without a journal is
slightly faster for most everything.

We did
	iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2

which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
to bypass the page cache.  Results:

                     ext2        ext4, default   ext4, no journal
  initial writes   13.0 MB/s        15.4 MB/s          15.7 MB/s
  rewrites         13.1 MB/s        15.6 MB/s          15.9 MB/s
  reads            15.2 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
  re-reads         15.3 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
  random readers    5.6 MB/s         5.6 MB/s           5.7 MB/s
  random writers    5.1 MB/s         5.3 MB/s           5.4 MB/s

I chased the cause of following ext4 oops report which is tested on

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12018

The cause is the size of s_mb_maxs array that is defined as "unsigned
short" in ext4_sb_info structure.  If the file system's block size is
8k or greater, an unsigned short is not wide enough to contain the
value fs->blocksize << 3.

The inode table has been zeroed in setup_new_group_blocks().  Mark it as

If at some point in the future we don't immediately zero out the inode

If the filesystem has errors, ext4_da_writepages() will return a *lot*
of errors, including lots and lots of stack dumps.  While it's true
that we are dropping user data on the floor, which is unfortunate, the
stack dumps aren't helpful, and they tend to obscure the true original
root cause of the problem.  So in the case where the filesystem has
aborted, return an EROFS right away.

With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened.  They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim.  This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.

The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called.  It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock.  The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.

Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS.  Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function.  Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).

This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg.  ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

To support containers, allow multiple instances of devpts filesystem, such
that indices of ptys allocated in one instance are independent of ptys
allocated in other instances of devpts.

But to preserve backward compatibility, enable this support for multiple
instances only if:

	- CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES is set to Y, and
	- '-o newinstance' mount option is specified while mounting devpts

To use multi-instance mount, a container startup script could:

	$ ns_exec -cm /bin/bash
	$ umount /dev/pts
	$ mount -t devpts -o newinstance lxcpts /dev/pts
	$ mount -o bind /dev/pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
	$ /usr/sbin/sshd -p 1234

where 'ns_exec -cm /bin/bash' is calls clone() with CLONE_NEWNS flag and execs
/bin/bash in the child process. A pty created by the sshd is not visible in
the original mount of /dev/pts.

USER-SPACE-IMPACT:
	- See Documentation/fs/devpts.txt (included in next patch) for user-
	  space impact in multi-instance and mixed-mode operation.
TODO:
	- Update mount(8), pts(4) man pages. Highlight impact of not
	  redirecting /dev/ptmx to /dev/pts/ptmx after a multi-instance mount.

Changelog[v6]:
	- [Dave Hansen] Use new get_init_pts_sb() interface
	- [Serge Hallyn] Don't bother displaying 'newinstance' in show_options
	- [Serge Hallyn] Use macros (PARSE_REMOUNT/PARSE_MOUNT) instead of 0/1.
	- [Serge Hallyn] Check error return from get_sb_single() (now
	  get_init_pts_sb())
	- devpts_pty_kill(): don't dput error dentries

Changelog[v5]:
	- Move get_sb_ref() definition to earlier patch
	- Move usage info to Documentation/filesystems/devpts.txt (next patch)
	- Make ptmx node even in init_pts_ns, now that default mode is 0000
	  (defined in earlier patch, enabled here).
	- Cache ptmx dentry and use to update mode during remount
	  (defined in earlier patch, enabled here).
	- Bugfix: explicitly ignore newinstance on remount (if newinstance was
	  specified on remount of initial mount, it would be ignored but
	  /proc/mounts would imply that the option was set)

Changelog[v4]:

	- Update patch description to address H. Peter Anvin's comments
	- Consolidate multi-instance mode code under new config token,
	  CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCE.
	- Move usage-details from patch description to
	  Documentation/fs/devpts.txt

Changelog[v3]:
	- Rename new mount option to 'newinstance'
	- Create ptmx nodes only in 'newinstance' mounts
	- Bugfix: parse_mount_options() modifies @data but since we need to

	  do_remount_sb()), parse a local copy of @data in devpts_get_sb().
	  (restructured code in devpts_get_sb() to fix this)

/dev/ptmx is closely tied to the devpts filesystem. An open of /dev/ptmx,
allocates the next pty index and the associated device shows up in the
devpts fs as /dev/pts/n.

Wih multiple instancs of devpts filesystem, during an open of /dev/ptmx
we would be unable to determine which instance of the devpts is being
accessed.

So we move the 'ptmx' node into /dev/pts and use the inode of the 'ptmx'
node to identify the superblock and hence the devpts instance.  This patch
adds ability for the kernel to internally create the [ptmx, c, 5:2] device
when mounting devpts filesystem.  Since the ptmx node in devpts is new and
may surprise some userspace scripts, the default permissions for the new
node is 0000.  These permissions can be changed either using chmod or by
remounting with the new '-o ptmxmode=0666' mount option.

Changelog[v5]:
	- [Serge Hallyn bugfix]: Letting new_inode() assign inode number to
	  ptmx can collide with hand-assigning inode numbers to ptys. So,
	  hand-assign specific inode number to ptmx node also.
	- [Serge Hallyn]: Maybe safer to grab root dentry mutex while creating
	  ptmx node
	- [Bugfix with Serge Hallyn] Replace lookup_one_len() in mknod_ptmx()
	  wih d_alloc_name() (lookup during ->get_sb() locks up system). To
	  simplify patchset, fold the ptmx_dentry patch into this.

Changelog[v4]:
	- Change default permissions of pts/ptmx node to 0000.
	- Move code for ptmxmode under #ifdef CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES.

Changelog[v3]:
	- Rename ptmx_mode to ptmxmode (for consistency with 'newinstance')

Changelog[v2]:
	- [H. Peter Anvin] Remove mknod() system call support and create the
	  ptmx node internally.

Changelog[v1]:
	- Earlier version of this patch enabled creating /dev/pts/tty as
	  well. As pointed out by Al Viro and H. Peter Anvin, that is not
	  really necessary.
