Nick Piggin reported that the CRC overhead in an fsync heavy
workload was higher than expected on a Power8 machine. Part of this
was to do with the fact that the power8 CRC implementation is not
efficient for CRC lengths of less than 512 bytes, and so the way we
split the CRCs over the CRC field means a lot of the CRCs are
reduced to being less than than optimal size.
To optimise this, change the CRC update mechanism to zero the CRC
field first, and then compute the CRC in one pass over the buffer
and write the result back into the buffer. We can do this safely
because anything writing a CRC has exclusive access to the buffer
the CRC is being calculated over.
We leave the CRC verify code the same - it still splits the CRC
calculation - because we do not want read-only operations modifying
the underlying buffer. This is because read-only operations may not
have an exclusive access to the buffer guaranteed, and so temporary
modifications could leak out to to other processes accessing the
buffer concurrently.

The on-disk field di_size is used to set i_size, which is a signed
integer of loff_t. If the high bit of di_size is set, we'll end up with
a negative i_size, which will cause all sorts of problems. Since the
VFS won't let us create a file with such length, we should catch them
here in the verifier too.

xfs_repair was not detecting that version 3 inodes are invalid for
for non-CRC filesystems. The result is specific inode corruptions go
undetected and hence aren't repaired if only the version number is
out of range.
The core of the problem is that the XFS_DINODE_GOOD_VERSION() macro
doesn't know that valid inode versions are dependent on a superblock
version number. Fix this in libxfs, and propagate the new function
out into the rest of xfsprogs to fix the issue.

Create a per-inode extent size allocator hint for copy-on-write. This
hint is separate from the existing extent size hint so that CoW can
take advantage of the fragmentation-reducing properties of extent size
hints without disabling delalloc for regular writes.
The extent size hint that's fed to the allocator during a copy on
write operation is the greater of the cowextsize and regular extsize
hint.
During reflink, if we're sharing the entire source file to the entire
destination file and the destination file doesn't already have a

Now that the struct xfs_icdinode is not directly related to the
on-disk format, we can cull things in it we really don't need to
store:
- magic number never changes
- padding is not necessary
- next_unlinked is never used
- inode number is redundant
- uuid is redundant
- lsn is accessed directly from dinode
- inode CRC is only accessed directly from dinode
Hence we can remove these from the struct xfs_icdinode and redirect
the code that uses them to the xfs_dinode appripriately. This
reduces the size of the struct icdinode from 152 bytes to 88 bytes,
and removes a fair chunk of unnecessary code, too.

We currently carry around and log an entire inode core in the
struct xfs_inode. A lot of the information in the inode core is
duplicated in the VFS inode, but we cannot remove this duplication
of infomration because the inode core is logged directly in
xfs_inode_item_format().
Add a new function xfs_inode_item_format_core() that copies the
inode core data into a struct xfs_icdinode that is pulled directly
from the log vector buffer. This means we no longer directly
copy the inode core, but copy the structures one member at a time.
This will be slightly less efficient than copying, but will allow us
to remove duplicate and unnecessary items from the struct xfs_inode.
To enable us to do this, call the new structure a xfs_log_dinode,
so that we know it's different to the physical xfs_dinode and the
in-core xfs_icdinode.

When we do dquot readahead in log recovery, we do not use a verifier
as the underlying buffer may not have dquots in it. e.g. the
allocation operation hasn't yet been replayed. Hence we do not want
to fail recovery because we detect an operation to be replayed has
not been run yet. This problem was addressed for inodes in commit
d891400 ("xfs: inode buffers may not be valid during recovery
readahead") but the problem was not recognised to exist for dquots
and their buffers as the dquot readahead did not have a verifier.
The result of not using a verifier is that when the buffer is then
next read to replay a dquot modification, the dquot buffer verifier
will only be attached to the buffer if *readahead is not complete*.
Hence we can read the buffer, replay the dquot changes and then add
it to the delwri submission list without it having a verifier
attached to it. This then generates warnings in xfs_buf_ioapply(),
which catches and warns about this case.
Fix this and make it handle the same readahead verifier error cases
as for inode buffers by adding a new readahead verifier that has a
write operation as well as a read operation that marks the buffer as
not done if any corruption is detected. Also make sure we don't run
readahead if the dquot buffer has been marked as cancelled by
recovery.
This will result in readahead either succeeding and the buffer
having a valid write verifier, or readahead failing and the buffer
state requiring the subsequent read to resubmit the IO with the new
verifier. In either case, this will result in the buffer always
ending up with a valid write verifier on it.
Note: we also need to fix the inode buffer readahead error handling
to mark the buffer with EIO. Brian noticed the code I copied from
there wrong during review, so fix it at the same time. Add comments
linking the two functions that handle readahead verifier errors
together so we don't forget this behavioural link in future.

When we do inode readahead in log recovery, we do can do the
readahead before we've replayed the icreate transaction that stamps
the buffer with inode cores. The inode readahead verifier catches
this and marks the buffer as !done to indicate that it doesn't yet
contain valid inodes.
In adding buffer error notification (i.e. setting b_error = -EIO at
the same time as as we clear the done flag) to such a readahead
verifier failure, we can then get subsequent inode recovery failing
with this error:
XFS (dm-0): metadata I/O error: block 0xa00060 ("xlog_recover_do..(read#2)") error 5 numblks 32
This occurs when readahead completion races with icreate item replay
such as:
inode readahead
find buffer
lock buffer
submit RA io
....
icreate recovery
xfs_trans_get_buffer
find buffer
lock buffer
<blocks on RA completion>
.....
<ra completion>
fails verifier
clear XBF_DONE
set bp->b_error = -EIO
release and unlock buffer
<icreate gains lock>
icreate initialises buffer
marks buffer as done
adds buffer to delayed write queue
releases buffer
At this point, we have an initialised inode buffer that is up to
date but has an -EIO state registered against it. When we finally
get to recovering an inode in that buffer:
inode item recovery
xfs_trans_read_buffer
find buffer
lock buffer
sees XBF_DONE is set, returns buffer
sees bp->b_error is set
fail log recovery!
Essentially, we need xfs_trans_get_buf_map() to clear the error status of
the buffer when doing a lookup. This function returns uninitialised
buffers, so the buffer returned can not be in an error state and
none of the code that uses this function expects b_error to be set
on return. Indeed, there is an ASSERT(!bp->b_error); in the
transaction case in xfs_trans_get_buf_map() that would have caught
this if log recovery used transactions....
This patch firstly changes the inode readahead failure to set -EIO
on the buffer, and secondly changes xfs_buf_get_map() to never
return a buffer with an error state set so this first change doesn't
cause unexpected log recovery failures.

This adds a new superblock field, sb_meta_uuid. If set, along with
a new incompat flag, the code will use that field on a V5 filesystem
to compare to metadata UUIDs, which allows us to change the user-
visible UUID at will. Userspace handles the setting and clearing
of the incompat flag as appropriate, as the UUID gets changed; i.e.
setting the user-visible UUID back to the original UUID (as stored in
the new field) will remove the incompatible feature flag.
If the incompat flag is not set, this copies the user-visible UUID into
into the meta_uuid slot in memory when the superblock is read from disk;
the meta_uuid field is not written back to disk in this case.
The remainder of this patch simply switches verifiers, initializers,
etc to use the new sb_meta_uuid field.
