It can happen that buffers are removed from the page before it gets marked dirty and then is passed to writepage(). In writepage() we just initialize the buffers and check whether they are mapped and non delay. If they are mapped and non delay we write the page. Otherwise we mark them dirty. With this change we don't do block allocation at all in ext4_*_write_page. writepage() can get called under many condition and with a locking order of journal_start -> lock_page, we should not try to allocate blocks in writepage() which get called after taking page lock. writepage() can get called via shrink_page_list even with a journal handle which was created for doing inode update. For example when doing ext4_da_write_begin we create a journal handle with credit 1 expecting a i_disksize update for the inode. But ext4_da_write_begin can cause shrink_page_list via _grab_page_cache. So having a valid handle via ext4_journal_current_handle is not a guarantee that we can use the handle for block allocation in writepage, since we shouldn't be using credits that had been reserved for other updates. That it could result in we running out of credits when we update inodes.

This provides a new ordered mode implementation which gets rid of using buffer heads to enforce the ordering between metadata change with the related data chage. Instead, in the new ordering mode, it keeps track of all of the inodes touched by each transaction on a list, and when that transaction is committed, it flushes all of the dirty pages for those inodes. In addition, the new ordered mode reverses the lock ordering of the page lock and transaction lock, which provides easier support for delayed allocation.

With the reverse locking, we need to start a transation before taking the page lock, so in ext4_da_writepages() we need to break the write-out into chunks, and restart the journal for each chunck to ensure the write-out fits in a single transaction.

Filesystems like ext4 needs to start a new transaction in the writepages for block allocation. This happens with delayed allocation and there is limit to how many credits we can request from the journal layer. So we call write_cache_pages multiple times with wbc->nr_to_write set to the maximum possible value limitted by the max journal credits available. Add a new mode to writeback that enables us to handle this behaviour. In the new mode we update the wbc->range_start to point to the new offset to be written. Next call to call to write_cache_pages will start writeout from specified range_start offset. In the new mode we also limit writing to the specified wbc->range_end.

This patch does block reservation for delayed allocation, to avoid ENOSPC later at page flush time. Blocks(data and metadata) are reserved at da_write_begin() time, the freeblocks counter is updated by then, and the number of reserved blocks is store in per inode counter. At the writepage time, the unused reserved meta blocks are returned back. At unlink/truncate time, reserved blocks are properly released. Updated fix from Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> to fix the oldallocator block reservation accounting with delalloc, added lock to guard the counters and also fix the reservation for meta blocks.

Delayed allocation need to check free blocks at every write time. percpu_counter_read_positive() is not quit accurate. delayed allocation need a more accurate accounting, but using percpu_counter_sum_positive() is frequently is quite expensive.

This patch adds necessary framework into JBD2 to be able to track inodes with each transaction and write-out their dirty data during transaction commit time. This new ordered mode brings all sorts of advantages such as possibility to get rid of journal heads and buffer heads for data buffers in ordered mode, better ordering of writes on transaction commit, simplification of some JBD code, no more anonymous pages when truncate of data being committed happens. Also with this new ordered mode, delayed allocation on ordered mode is much simpler. Signed-off-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

This changes are needed to support data=ordered mode handling via inodes. This enables us to get rid of the journal heads and buffer heads for data buffers in the ordered mode. With the changes, during tranasaction commit we writeout the inode pages using the writepages()/writepage(). That implies we take page lock during transaction commit. This can cause a deadlock with the locking order page_lock -> jbd2_journal_start, since the jbd2_journal_start can wait for the journal_commit to happen and the journal_commit now needs to take the page lock. To avoid this dead lock reverse the locking order.

We would like to get notified when we are doing a write on mmap section. This is needed with respect to preallocated area. We split the preallocated area into initialzed extent and uninitialzed extent in the call back. This let us handle ENOSPC better.

When mballoc is enabled, block allocation for old block-based files are allocated using mballoc allocator instead of old block-based allocator. The old ext3 block reservation is turned off when mballoc is turned on. However, the in-core preallocation is not enabled for block-based/ non-extent based file block allocation. This result in performance regression, as now we don't have "reservation" ore in-core preallocation to prevent interleaved fragmentation in multiple writes workload. This patch fix this by enable per inode in-core preallocation for non extent files when mballoc is used.

journal_try_to_free_buffers() could race with jbd commit transaction when the later is holding the buffer reference while waiting for the data buffer to flush to disk. If the caller of journal_try_to_free_buffers() request tries hard to release the buffers, it will treat the failure as error and return back to the caller. We have seen the directo IO failed due to this race. Some of the caller of releasepage() also expecting the buffer to be dropped when passed with GFP_KERNEL mask to the releasepage()->journal_try_to_free_buffers(). With this patch, if the caller is passing the GFP_KERNEL to indicating this call could wait, in case of try_to_free_buffers() failed, let's waiting for journal_commit_transaction() to finish commit the current committing transaction , then try to free those buffers again with journal locked.

This patch mostly controls the way inode are allocated in order to make ialloc aware of flex_bg block group grouping. It achieves this by bypassing the Orlov allocator when block group meta-data are packed toghether through mke2fs. Since the impact on the block allocator is minimal, this patch should have little or no effect on other block allocation algorithms. By controlling the inode allocation, it can basically control where the initial search for new block begins and thus indirectly manipulate the block allocator. This allocator favors data and meta-data locality so the disk will gradually be filled from block group zero upward. This helps improve performance by reducing seek time. Since the group of inode tables within one flex_bg are treated as one giant inode table, uninitialized block groups would not need to partially initialize as many inode table as with Orlov which would help fsck time as the filesystem usage goes up.
