Chris Mason b7ec40d784 Btrfs: reduce stalls during transaction commit
To avoid deadlocks and reduce latencies during some critical operations, some
transaction writers are allowed to jump into the running transaction and make
it run a little longer, while others sit around and wait for the commit to
finish.

This is a bit unfair, especially when the callers that jump in do a bunch
of IO that makes all the others procs on the box wait.  This commit
reduces the stalls this produces by pre-reading file extent pointers
during btrfs_finish_ordered_io before the transaction is joined.

It also tunes the drop_snapshot code to politely wait for transactions
that have started writing out their delayed refs to finish.  This avoids
new delayed refs being flooded into the queue while we're trying to
close off the transaction.

Chris Mason 56bec294de Btrfs: do extent allocation and reference count updates in the background
The extent allocation tree maintains a reference count and full
back reference information for every extent allocated in the
filesystem.  For subvolume and snapshot trees, every time
a block goes through COW, the new copy of the block adds a reference
on every block it points to.

If a btree node points to 150 leaves, then the COW code needs to go
and add backrefs on 150 different extents, which might be spread all
over the extent allocation tree.

These updates currently happen during btrfs_cow_block, and most COWs
happen during btrfs_search_slot.  btrfs_search_slot has locks held
on both the parent and the node we are COWing, and so we really want
to avoid IO during the COW if we can.

This commit adds an rbtree of pending reference count updates and extent
allocations.  The tree is ordered by byte number of the extent and byte number
of the parent for the back reference.  The tree allows us to:

1) Modify back references in something close to disk order, reducing seeks
2) Significantly reduce the number of modifications made as block pointers
are balanced around
3) Do all of the extent insertion and back reference modifications outside
of the performance critical btrfs_search_slot code.

#3 has the added benefit of greatly reducing the btrfs stack footprint.
The extent allocation tree modifications are done without the deep
(and somewhat recursive) call chains used in the past.

These delayed back reference updates must be done before the transaction
commits, and so the rbtree is tied to the transaction.  Throttling is
implemented to help keep the queue of backrefs at a reasonable size.

Since there was a similar mechanism in place for the extent tree
extents, that is removed and replaced by the delayed reference tree.

Yan Zheng d2fb3437e4 Btrfs: fix leaking block group on balance
The block group structs are referenced in many different
places, and it's not safe to free while balancing.  So, those block
group structs were simply leaked instead.

This patch replaces the block group pointer in the inode with the starting byte
offset of the block group and adds reference counting to the block group
struct.

Chris Mason 3de4586c52 Btrfs: Allow subvolumes and snapshots anywhere in the directory tree
Before, all snapshots and subvolumes lived in a single flat directory.  This
was awkward and confusing because the single flat directory was only writable
with the ioctls.

This commit changes the ioctls to create subvols and snapshots at any
point in the directory tree.  This requires making separate ioctls for
snapshot and subvol creation instead of a combining them into one.

The subvol ioctl does:

btrfsctl -S subvol_name parent_dir

After the ioctl is done subvol_name lives inside parent_dir.

The snapshot ioctl does:

btrfsctl -s path_for_snapshot root_to_snapshot

path_for_snapshot can be an absolute or relative path.  btrfsctl breaks it up
into directory and basename components.

root_to_snapshot can be any file or directory in the FS.  The snapshot
is taken of the entire root where that file lives.

Chris Mason d0c803c404 Btrfs: Record dirty pages tree-log pages in an extent_io tree
This is the same way the transaction code makes sure that all the
other tree blocks are safely on disk.  There's an extent_io tree
for each root, and any blocks allocated to the tree logs are
recorded in that tree.

At tree-log sync, the extent_io tree is walked to flush down the
dirty pages and wait for them.

The main benefit is less time spent walking the tree log and skipping
clean pages, and getting sequential IO down to the drive.

Chris Mason e02119d5a7 Btrfs: Add a write ahead tree log to optimize synchronous operations
File syncs and directory syncs are optimized by copying their
items into a special (copy-on-write) log tree.  There is one log tree per
subvolume and the btrfs super block points to a tree of log tree roots.

After a crash, items are copied out of the log tree and back into the
subvolume.  See tree-log.c for all the details.

Sage Weil 9ca9ee09c1 Btrfs: fix ioctl-initiated transactions vs wait_current_trans()
Commit 597:466b27332893 (btrfs_start_transaction: wait for commits in
progress) breaks the transaction start/stop ioctls by making
btrfs_start_transaction conditionally wait for the next transaction to
start.  If an application artificially is holding a transaction open,
things deadlock.

This workaround maintains a count of open ioctl-initiated transactions in
fs_info, and avoids wait_current_trans() if any are currently open (in
start_transaction() and btrfs_throttle()).  The start transaction ioctl
uses a new btrfs_start_ioctl_transaction() that _does_ call
wait_current_trans(), effectively pushing the join/wait decision to the
outer ioctl-initiated transaction.

This more or less neuters btrfs_throttle() when ioctl-initiated
transactions are in use, but that seems like a pretty fundamental
consequence of wrapping lots of write()'s in a transaction.  Btrfs has no
way to tell if the application considers a given operation as part of it's
transaction.

Obviously, if the transaction start/stop ioctls aren't being used, there
is no effect on current behavior.

Yan Zheng f321e49103 Btrfs: Update and fix mount -o nodatacow
To check whether a given file extent is referenced by multiple snapshots, the
checker walks down the fs tree through dead root and checks all tree blocks in
the path.

We can easily detect whether a given tree block is directly referenced by other
snapshot. We can also detect any indirect reference from other snapshot by
checking reference's generation. The checker can always detect multiple
references, but can't reliably detect cases of single reference. So btrfs may
do file data cow even there is only one reference.

Chris Mason ab78c84de1 Btrfs: Throttle operations if the reference cache gets too large
A large reference cache is directly related to a lot of work pending
for the cleaner thread.  This throttles back new operations based on
the size of the reference cache so the cleaner thread will be able to keep
up.

Overall, this actually makes the FS faster because the cleaner thread will
be more likely to find things in cache.

Chris Mason f929574938 btrfs_start_transaction: wait for commits in progress to finish
btrfs_commit_transaction has to loop waiting for any writers in the
transaction to finish before it can proceed.  btrfs_start_transaction
should be polite and not join a transaction that is in the process
of being finished off.

There are a few places that can't wait, basically the ones doing IO that
might be needed to finish the transaction.  For them, btrfs_join_transaction
is added.

Chris Mason e6dcd2dc9c Btrfs: New data=ordered implementation
The old data=ordered code would force commit to wait until
all the data extents from the transaction were fully on disk.  This
introduced large latencies into the commit and stalled new writers
in the transaction for a long time.

The new code changes the way data allocations and extents work:

* When delayed allocation is filled, data extents are reserved, and
  the extent bit EXTENT_ORDERED is set on the entire range of the extent.
  A struct btrfs_ordered_extent is allocated an inserted into a per-inode
  rbtree to track the pending extents.

* As each page is written EXTENT_ORDERED is cleared on the bytes corresponding
  to that page.

* When all of the bytes corresponding to a single struct btrfs_ordered_extent
  are written, The previously reserved extent is inserted into the FS
  btree and into the extent allocation trees.  The checksums for the file
  data are also updated.

Chris Mason 89ce8a63d0 Add btrfs_end_transaction_throttle to force writers to wait for pending commits
The existing throttle mechanism was often not sufficient to prevent
new writers from coming in and making a given transaction run forever.
This adds an explicit wait at the end of most operations so they will
allow the current transaction to close.

There is no wait inside file_write, inode updates, or cow filling, all which
have different deadlock possibilities.

This is a temporary measure until better asynchronous commit support is
added.  This code leads to stalls as it waits for data=ordered
writeback, and it really needs to be fixed.

Chris Mason d1310b2e0c Btrfs: Split the extent_map code into two parts
There is now extent_map for mapping offsets in the file to disk and
extent_io for state tracking, IO submission and extent_bufers.

The new extent_map code shifts from [start,end] pairs to [start,len], and
pushes the locking out into the caller.  This allows a few performance
optimizations and is easier to use.

A number of extent_map usage bugs were fixed, mostly with failing
to remove extent_map entries when changing the file.

Chris Mason 5ce14bbcdd Btrfs: Find and remove dead roots the first time a root is loaded.
Dead roots are trees left over after a crash, and they were either in the
process of being removed or were waiting to be removed when the box crashed.
Before, a search of the entire tree of root pointers was done on mount
looking for dead roots.  Now, the search is done the first time we load
a root.

This makes mount faster when there are a large number of snapshots, and it
enables the block accounting code to properly update the block counts on
the latest root as old versions of the root are reaped after a crash.
