Btrfs was using spin_is_contended to see if it should drop locks before
doing extent allocations during btrfs_search_slot. The idea was to avoid
expensive searches in the tree unless the lock was actually contended.
But, spin_is_contended is specific to the ticket spinlocks on x86, so this
is causing compile errors everywhere else.
In practice, the contention could easily appear some time after we started
doing the extent allocation, and it makes more sense to always drop the lock
instead.

On fast devices that go from congested to uncongested very quickly, pdflush
is waiting too often in congestion_wait, and the FS is backing off to
easily in write_cache_pages.
For now, fix this on the btrfs side by only checking congestion after
some bios have already gone down. Longer term a real fix is needed
for pdflush, but that is a larger project.

Whenever an item deletion is done, we need to balance all the nodes
in the tree to make sure we don't end up with an empty node if a pointer
is deleted. This balance prep happens from the root of the tree down
so we can drop our locks as we go.
reada_for_balance was triggering read-ahead on neighboring nodes even
when no balancing was required. This adds an extra check to avoid
calling balance_level() and avoid reada_for_balance() when a balance
won't be required.

btrfs_del_leaf does two things. First it removes the pointer in the
parent, and then it frees the block that has the leaf. It has the
parent node locked for both operations.
But, it only needs the parent locked while it is deleting the pointer.
After that it can safely free the block without the parent locked.

btrfs_truncate_inode_items is setup to stop doing btree searches when
it has finished removing the items for the inode. It used to detect the
end of the inode by looking for an objectid that didn't match the
one we were searching for.
But, this would result in an extra search through the btree, which
adds extra balancing and cow costs to the operation.
This commit adds a check to see if we found the inode item, which means
we can stop searching early.

The compression code had some checks to make sure we were only
compressing bytes inside of i_size, but it wasn't catching every
case. To make things worse, some incorrect math about the number
of bytes remaining would make it try to compress more pages than the
file really had.
The fix used here is to fall back to the non-compression code in this
case, which does all the proper cleanup of delalloc and other accounting.

With selinux on we end up calling __btrfs_setxattr when we create an inode,
which calls btrfs_start_transaction(). The problem is we've already called
that in btrfs_new_inode, and in btrfs_start_transaction we end up doing a
wait_current_trans(). If btrfs-transaction has started committing it will wait
for all handles to finish, while the other process is waiting for the
transaction to commit. This is fixed by using btrfs_join_transaction, which
won't wait for the transaction to commit. Thanks,

Every transaction in btrfs creates a new snapshot, and then schedules the
snapshot from the last transaction for deletion. Snapshot deletion
works by walking down the btree and dropping the reference counts
on each btree block during the walk.
If if a given leaf or node has a reference count greater than one,
the reference count is decremented and the subtree pointed to by that
node is ignored.
If the reference count is one, walking continues down into that node
or leaf, and the references of everything it points to are decremented.
The old code would try to work in small pieces, walking down the tree
until it found the lowest leaf or node to free and then returning. This
was very friendly to the rest of the FS because it didn't have a huge
impact on other operations.
But it wouldn't always keep up with the rate that new commits added new
snapshots for deletion, and it wasn't very optimal for the extent
allocation tree because it wasn't finding leaves that were close together
on disk and processing them at the same time.
This changes things to walk down to a level 1 node and then process it
in bulk. All the leaf pointers are sorted and the leaves are dropped
in order based on their extent number.
The extent allocation tree and commit code are now fast enough for
this kind of bulk processing to work without slowing the rest of the FS
down. Overall it does less IO and is better able to keep up with
snapshot deletions under high load.

Most of the btrfs metadata operations can be protected by a spinlock,
but some operations still need to schedule.
So far, btrfs has been using a mutex along with a trylock loop,
most of the time it is able to avoid going for the full mutex, so
the trylock loop is a big performance gain.
This commit is step one for getting rid of the blocking locks entirely.
btrfs_tree_lock takes a spinlock, and the code explicitly switches
to a blocking lock when it starts an operation that can schedule.
We'll be able get rid of the blocking locks in smaller pieces over time.
Tracing allows us to find the most common cause of blocking, so we
can start with the hot spots first.
The basic idea is:
btrfs_tree_lock() returns with the spin lock held
btrfs_set_lock_blocking() sets the EXTENT_BUFFER_BLOCKING bit in
the extent buffer flags, and then drops the spin lock. The buffer is
still considered locked by all of the btrfs code.
If btrfs_tree_lock gets the spinlock but finds the blocking bit set, it drops
the spin lock and waits on a wait queue for the blocking bit to go away.
Much of the code that needs to set the blocking bit finishes without actually
blocking a good percentage of the time. So, an adaptive spin is still
used against the blocking bit to avoid very high context switch rates.
btrfs_clear_lock_blocking() clears the blocking bit and returns
with the spinlock held again.
btrfs_tree_unlock() can be called on either blocking or spinning locks,
it does the right thing based on the blocking bit.
ctree.c has a helper function to set/clear all the locked buffers in a
path as blocking.

Before metadata is written to disk, it is updated to reflect that writeout
has begun. Once this update is done, the block must be cow'd before it
can be modified again.
This update was originally synchronized by using a per-fs spinlock. Today
the buffers for the metadata blocks are locked before writeout begins,
and everyone that tests the flag has the buffer locked as well.
So, the per-fs spinlock (called hash_lock for no good reason) is no
longer required.

extent_io.c has debugging code to report and free leaked extent_state
and extent_buffer objects at rmmod time. This helps track down
leaks and it saves you from rebooting just to properly remove the
kmem_cache object.
But, the code runs under a fairly expensive spinlock and the checks to
see if it is currently enabled are not entirely consistent. Some use
#ifdef and some #if.
This changes everything to #if and disables the leak checking.

When a block goes through cow, we update the reference counts of
everything that block points to. The internal pointers of the block
can be in just about any order, and it is likely to have clusters of
things that are close together and clusters of things that are not.
To help reduce the seeks that come with updating all of these reference
counts, sort them by byte number before actual updates are done.

After btrfs_readdir has gone through all the directory items, it
sets the directory f_pos to the largest possible int. This way
applications that mix readdir with creating new files don't
end up in an endless loop finding the new directory items as they go.
It was a workaround for a bug in git, but the assumption was that if git
could make this looping mistake than it would be a common problem.
The largest possible int chosen was INT_LIMIT(typeof(file->f_pos),
and it is possible for that to be a larger number than 32 bit glibc
expects to come out of readdir.
This patches switches that to INT_LIMIT(off_t), which should keep
applications happy on 32 and 64 bit machines.

Just before reading a leaf, btrfs scans the node for blocks that are
close by and reads them too. It tries to build up a large window
of IO looking for blocks that are within a max distance from the top
and bottom of the IO window.

target block. It will trigger less IO and make for lower latencies on

Swapfiles use bmap to build a list of extents belonging to the file,
and they assume these extents won't change over the life of the file.
They also use resulting list to do IO directly to the block device.
This causes problems for btrfs in a few ways:
btrfs returns logical block numbers through bmap, and these are not suitable
for IO. They might translate to different devices, raid etc.
COW means that file block mappings are going to change frequently.
Using swapfiles on btrfs will lead to corruption, so we're avoiding the
problem for now by dropping bmap support entirely. A later commit
will add fiemap support for people that really want to know how
a file is laid out.

To improve performance, btrfs_sync_log merges tree log sync
requests. But it wrongly merges sync requests for different
tree logs. If multiple tree logs are synced at the same time,
only one of them actually gets synced.
This patch has following changes to fix the bug:
Move most tree log related fields in btrfs_fs_info to
btrfs_root. This allows merging sync requests separately
for each tree log.
Don't insert root item into the log root tree immediately
after log tree is allocated. Root item for log tree is
inserted when log tree get synced for the first time. This
allows syncing the log root tree without first syncing all
log trees.
At tree-log sync, btrfs_sync_log first sync the log tree;
then updates corresponding root item in the log root tree;
sync the log root tree; then update the super block.

replace_one_extent searches tree leaves for references to a given extent. It
stops searching if it goes beyond the last possible position.
The last possible position is computed by adding the starting offset of a found

extent as the full size. This is incorrect when compression is used.
The fix is get the full size from ram_bytes field of file extent item.

Btrfs: fix ioctl arg size (userland incompatible change!)
Btrfs: Clear the device->running_pending flag before bailing on congestion
The structure used to send device in btrfs ioctl calls was not
properly aligned, and so 32 bit ioctls would not work properly on
64 bit kernels.
We could fix this with compat ioctls, but we're just one byte away

forever at this stage in the project.

Btrfs maintains a queue of async bio submissions so the checksumming
threads don't have to wait on get_request_wait. In order to avoid
extra wakeups, this code has a running_pending flag that is used
to tell new submissions they don't need to wake the thread.
When the threads notice congestion on a single device, they
may decide to requeue the job and move on to other devices. This
makes sure the running_pending flag is cleared before the
job is requeued.
It should help avoid IO stalls by making sure the task is woken up
when new submissions come in.

Each subvolume has an extent_state_tree used to mark metadata
that needs to be sent to disk while syncing the tree. This is
used in addition to the dirty bits on the pages themselves so that
a single subvolume can be sent to disk efficiently in disk order.
Normally this marking happens in btrfs_alloc_free_block, which also does
special recording of dirty tree blocks for the tree log roots.
Yan Zheng noticed that when the root of the log tree is allocated, it is added
to the wrong writeback list. The fix used here is to explicitly set
it dirty as part of tree log creation.
