btrfs filesystem df output will show the size of the metadata space and how much of it is used, and the user assumes that the difference is all usable space. Since that's not actually the case due to the global metadata reservation, we should provide the full picture to the user.

This patch adds the ability to change (set/clear) features while the file system is mounted. A bitmask is added for each feature set for the support to set and clear the bits. A message indicating which bit has been set or cleared is issued when it's been changed and also when permission or support for a particular bit has been denied. Since the the attributes can now be writable, we need to introduce another struct attribute to hold the different permissions. If neither set or clear is supported, the file will have 0444 permissions. If either set or clear is supported, the file will have 0644 permissions and the store handler will filter out the write based on the bitmask.

There are some feature bits that require no offline setup and can be enabled online. I've only reviewed extended irefs, but there will probably be more. We introduce three new ioctls: - BTRFS_IOC_GET_SUPPORTED_FEATURES: query the kernel for supported features. - BTRFS_IOC_GET_FEATURES: query the kernel for enabled features on a per-fs basis, as well as querying for which features are changeable with mounted. - BTRFS_IOC_SET_FEATURES: change features on a per-fs basis. We introduce two new masks per feature set (_SAFE_SET and _SAFE_CLEAR) that allow us to define which features are safe to change at runtime. The failure modes for BTRFS_IOC_SET_FEATURES are as follows: - Enabling a completely unsupported feature: warns and returns -ENOTSUPP - Enabling a feature that can only be done offline: warns and returns -EPERM Signed-off-by: NJeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NJosef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <clm@fb.com>

The way how we process delayed refs is 1) get a bunch of head refs, 2) pick up one head ref, 3) go one node back for any delayed ref updates. The head ref is also linked in the same rbtree as the delayed ref is, so in 1) stage, we have to walk one by one including not only head refs, but delayed refs. When we have a great number of delayed refs pending to process, this'll cost time a lot. Here we introduce a head ref specific rbtree, it only has head refs, so troubles go away.

We were looking at file_extent_num_bytes unconditionally when looking at referenced data bytes, but this isn't correct for compression. Fix this by checking the compression of the file extent we are and setting num_bytes to disk_num_bytes in the case of compression so that we are marking the proper bytes as referenced.

Btrfs has always had these filler extent data items for holes in inodes. This has made somethings very easy, like logging hole punches and sending hole punches. However for large holey files these extent data items are pure overhead. So add an incompatible feature to no longer add hole extents to reduce the amount of metadata used by these sort of files. This has a few changes for logging and send obviously since they will need to detect holes and log/send the holes if there are any. I've tested this thoroughly with xfstests and it doesn't cause any issues with and without the incompat format set.

There is a bug in the function nilfs_segctor_collect, which results in active data being written to a segment, that is marked as clean. It is possible, that this segment is selected for a later segment construction, whereby the old data is overwritten. The problem shows itself with the following kernel log message: nilfs_sufile_do_cancel_free: segment 6533 must be clean Usually a few hours later the file system gets corrupted: NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=8748107): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 0 NILFS error (device sdc1): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=114660) The issue can be reproduced with a file system that is nearly full and with the cleaner running, while some IO intensive task is running. Although it is quite hard to reproduce. This is what happens: 1. The cleaner starts the segment construction 2. nilfs_segctor_collect is called 3. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_SUFILE and segments are freed 4. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_DAT current segment is full 5. nilfs_segctor_extend_segments is called, which allocates a new segment 6. The new segment is one of the segments freed in step 3 7. nilfs_sufile_cancel_freev is called and produces an error message 8. Loop around and the collection starts again 9. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_SUFILE and segments are freed including the newly allocated segment, which will contain active data and can be allocated at a later time 10. A few hours later another segment construction allocates the segment and causes file system corruption This can be prevented by simply reordering the statements. If nilfs_sufile_cancel_freev is called before nilfs_segctor_extend_segments the freed segments are marked as dirty and cannot be allocated any more.

Commit f5a44db5 introduced a regression on filesystems created with the bigalloc feature (cluster size > blocksize). It causes xfstests generic/006 and /013 to fail with an unexpected JBD2 failure and transaction abort that leaves the test file system in a read only state. Other xfstests run on bigalloc file systems are likely to fail as well. The cause is the accidental use of a cluster mask where a cluster offset was needed in ext4_ext_map_blocks().

The EPOLL_CTL_DEL path of epoll contains a classic, ab-ba deadlock. That is, epoll_ctl(a, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, b, x), will deadlock with epoll_ctl(b, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, a, x). The deadlock was introduced with commmit 67347fe4 ("epoll: do not take global 'epmutex' for simple topologies"). The acquistion of the ep->mtx for the destination 'ep' was added such that a concurrent EPOLL_CTL_ADD operation would see the correct state of the ep (Specifically, the check for '!list_empty(&f.file->f_ep_links') However, by simply not acquiring the lock, we do not serialize behind the ep->mtx from the add path, and thus may perform a full path check when if we had waited a little longer it may not have been necessary. However, this is a transient state, and performing the full loop checking in this case is not harmful. The important point is that we wouldn't miss doing the full loop checking when required, since EPOLL_CTL_ADD always locks any 'ep's that its operating upon. The reason we don't need to do lock ordering in the add path, is that we are already are holding the global 'epmutex' whenever we do the double lock. Further, the original posting of this patch, which was tested for the intended performance gains, did not perform this additional locking.

When we obtain tcon from cifs_sb, we use cifs_sb_tlink() to first obtain tlink which also grabs a reference to it. We do not drop this reference to tlink once we are done with the call. The patch fixes this issue by instead passing tcon as a parameter and avoids having to obtain a reference to the tlink. A lookup for the tcon is already made in the calling functions and this way we avoid having to re-run the lookup. This is also consistent with the argument list for other similar calls for M-F symlinks. We should also return an ENOSYS when we do not find a protocol specific function to lookup the MF Symlink data.

Since commit 36bc08cc ("fs/aio: Add support to aio ring pages migration") the aio ring setup code has used a special per-ring backing inode for the page allocations, rather than just using random anonymous pages. However, rather than remembering the pages as it allocated them, it would allocate the pages, insert them into the file mapping (dirty, so that they couldn't be free'd), and then forget about them. And then to look them up again, it would mmap the mapping, and then use "get_user_pages()" to get back an array of the pages we just created. Now, not only is that incredibly inefficient, it also leaked all the pages if the mmap failed (which could happen due to excessive number of mappings, for example). So clean it all up, making it much more straightforward. Also remove some left-overs of the previous (broken) mm_populate() usage that was removed in commit d6c355c7 ("aio: fix race in ring buffer page lookup introduced by page migration support") but left the pointless and now misleading MAP_POPULATE flag around.

The arbitrary restriction on page counts offered by the core migrate_page_move_mapping() code results in rather suspicious looking fiddling with page reference counts in the aio_migratepage() operation. To fix this, make migrate_page_move_mapping() take an extra_count parameter that allows aio to tell the code about its own reference count on the page being migrated. While cleaning up aio_migratepage(), make it validate that the old page being passed in is actually what aio_migratepage() expects to prevent misbehaviour in the case of races.

We need to wait for any outstanding DIO to complete in a couple of situations. Firstly, in case we are changing out of deferred mode (in inode_go_sync) where GLF_DIRTY will not be set. That call could be prefixed with a test for gl_state == LM_ST_DEFERRED but it doesn't seem worth it bearing in mind that the test for outstanding DIO is very quick anyway, in the usual case that there is none. The second case is in inode_go_lock which will catch the cases where we have a cached EX lock, but where we grant deferred locks against it so that there is no glock state transistion. We only need to wait if the state is not deferred, since DIO is valid anyway in that state. Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

In patch 209806ab we allowed local deferred locks to be granted against a cached exclusive lock. That opened up a corner case which this patch now fixes. The solution to the problem is to check whether we have cached pages each time we do direct I/O and if so to unmap, flush and invalidate those pages. Since the glock state machine normally does that for us, mostly the code will be a no-op. Signed-off-by: NSteven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

Akira-san has been reporting rare deadlocks of his machine when running xfstests test 269 on ext4 filesystem. The problem turned out to be in ext4_da_reserve_metadata() and ext4_da_reserve_space() which called ext4_should_retry_alloc() while holding i_data_sem. Since ext4_should_retry_alloc() can force a transaction commit, this is a lock ordering violation and leads to deadlocks. Fix the problem by just removing the retry loops. These functions should just report ENOSPC to the caller (e.g. ext4_da_write_begin()) and that function must take care of retrying after dropping all necessary locks.

If we are doing aysnc writeback of metadata, we can get write errors but have nobody to report them to. At the moment, we simply attempt to reissue the write from io completion in the hope that it's a transient error. When it's not a transient error, the buffer is stuck forever in this loop, and we cannot break out of it. Eventually, unmount will hang because the AIL cannot be emptied and everything goes downhill from them. To solve this problem, only retry the write IO once before aborting it. We don't throw the buffer away because some transient errors can last minutes (e.g. FC path failover) or even hours (thin provisioned devices that have run out of backing space) before they go away. Hence we really want to keep trying until we can't try any more. Because the buffer was not cleaned, however, it does not get removed from the AIL and hence the next pass across the AIL will start IO on it again. As such, we still get the "retry forever" semantics that we currently have, but we allow other access to the buffer in the mean time. Meanwhile the filesystem can continue to modify the buffer and relog it, so the IO errors won't hang the log or the filesystem. Now when we are pushing the AIL, we can see all these "permanent IO error" buffers and we can issue a warning about failures before we retry the IO. We can also catch these buffers when unmounting an issue a corruption warning, too.
