In function try_rgrp_unlink, we added a temporary lock of the
sd_log_flush_lock while searching the bitmaps. This protected us from
problems in which dinodes being freed were still in a state of flux
because the rgrp was in an active transaction. It was a kludge.
Now that we've straightened out the code for inode eviction, deletes,
and all the recovery mess, we no longer need this kludge.
This patch removes it, and should improve performance.

Before this patch, multiple users called gfs2_qa_alloc which allocated
a qadata structure to the inode, if quotas are turned on. Later, in
file close or evict, the structure was deleted with gfs2_qa_delete.
But there can be several competing processes who need access to the
structure. There were races between file close (release) and the others.
Thus, a release could delete the structure out from under a process
that relied upon its existence. For example, chown.
This patch changes the management of the qadata structures to be
a get/put scheme. Function gfs2_qa_alloc has been changed to gfs2_qa_get
and if the structure is allocated, the count essentially starts out at
1. Function gfs2_qa_delete has been renamed to gfs2_qa_put, and the
last guy to decrement the count to 0 frees the memory.

Before this patch, multiple callers called gfs2_rsqa_alloc to force
the existence of a reservations structure and a quota data structure
if needed. However, now the reservations are handled separately, so
the quota data is only the quota data. So we eliminate the one in
favor of just calling gfs2_qa_alloc directly.

Before this patch, the rgrp code had a serious problem related to
how it managed buffer_heads for resource groups. The problem caused
file system corruption, especially in cases of journal replay.
When an rgrp glock was demoted to transfer ownership to a
different cluster node, do_xmote() first calls rgrp_go_sync and then
rgrp_go_inval, as expected. When it calls rgrp_go_sync, that called
gfs2_rgrp_brelse() that dropped the buffer_head reference count.
In most cases, the reference count went to zero, which is right.
However, there were other places where the buffers are handled
differently.
After rgrp_go_sync, do_xmote called rgrp_go_inval which called
gfs2_rgrp_brelse a second time, then rgrp_go_inval's call to
truncate_inode_pages_range would get rid of the pages in memory,
but only if the reference count drops to 0.
Unfortunately, gfs2_rgrp_brelse was setting bi->bi_bh = NULL.
So when rgrp_go_sync called gfs2_rgrp_brelse, it lost the pointer
to the buffer_heads in cases where the reference count was still 1.
Therefore, when rgrp_go_inval called gfs2_rgrp_brelse a second time,
it failed the check for "if (bi->bi_bh)" and thus failed to call
brelse a second time. Because of that, the reference count on those
buffers sometimes failed to drop from 1 to 0. And that caused
function truncate_inode_pages_range to keep the pages in page cache
rather than freeing them.
The next time the rgrp glock was acquired, the metadata read of
the rgrp buffers re-used the pages in memory, which were now
wrong because they were likely modified by the other node who
acquired the glock in EX (which is why we demoted the glock).
This re-use of the page cache caused corruption because changes
made by the other nodes were never seen, so the bitmaps were
inaccurate.
For some reason, the problem became most apparent when journal
replay forced the replay of rgrps in memory, which caused newer
rgrp data to be overwritten by the older in-core pages.
A big part of the problem was that the rgrp buffer were released
in multiple places: The go_unlock function would release them when
the glock was released rather than when the glock is demoted,
which is clearly wrong because our intent was to cache them until
the glock is demoted from SH or EX.
This patch attempts to clean up the mess and make one consistent
and centralized mechanism for managing the rgrp buffer_heads by
implementing several changes:
1. It eliminates the call to gfs2_rgrp_brelse() from rgrp_go_sync.
We don't want to release the buffers or zero the pointers when
syncing for the reasons stated above. It only makes sense to
release them when the glock is actually invalidated (go_inval).
And when we do, then we set the bh pointers to NULL.
2. The go_unlock function (which was only used for rgrps) is
eliminated, as we've talked about doing many times before.
The go_unlock function was called too early in the glock dq
process, and should not happen until the glock is invalidated.
3. It also eliminates the call to rgrp_brelse in gfs2_clear_rgrpd.
That will now happen automatically when the rgrp glocks are
demoted, and shouldn't happen any sooner or later than that.
Instead, function gfs2_clear_rgrpd has been modified to demote
the rgrp glocks, and therefore, free those pages, before the
remaining glocks are culled by gfs2_gl_hash_clear. This
prevents the gl_object from hanging around when the glocks are
culled.

gfs2_rgrp_brelse for doing that is missing.
When gfs2_releasepage later runs across these buffers which are still

are attached to to remain referenced as well. With enough mount/unmount
cycles, the system will eventually run out of memory.
Fix this by adding the missing call to gfs2_rgrp_brelse in

The GFS2_RDF_UPTODATE flag in the rgrp is used to determine when
a rgrp buffer is valid. It's cleared when the glock is invalidated,
signifying that the buffer data is now invalid. But before this
patch, function update_rgrp_lvb was setting the flag when it
determined it had a valid lvb. But that's an invalid assumption:
just because you have a valid lvb doesn't mean you have valid
buffers. After all, another node may have made the lvb valid,
and this node just fetched it from the glock via dlm.
Consider this scenario:
1. The file system is mounted with RGRPLVB option.
2. In gfs2_inplace_reserve it locks the rgrp glock EX, but thanks
to GL_SKIP, it skips the gfs2_rgrp_bh_get.
3. Since loops == 0 and the allocation target (ap->target) is
bigger than the largest known chunk of blocks in the rgrp
(rs->rs_rbm.rgd->rd_extfail_pt) it skips that rgrp and bypasses
the call to gfs2_rgrp_bh_get there as well.
4. update_rgrp_lvb sees the lvb MAGIC number is valid, so bypasses
gfs2_rgrp_bh_get, but it still sets sets GFS2_RDF_UPTODATE due
to this invalid assumption.
5. The next time update_rgrp_lvb is called, it sees the bit is set
and just returns 0, assuming both the lvb and rgrp are both
uptodate. But since this is a smaller allocation, or space has
been freed by another node, thus adjusting the lvb values,
it decides to use the rgrp for allocations, with invalid rd_free
due to the fact it was never updated.
This patch changes update_rgrp_lvb so it doesn't set the UPTODATE
flag anymore. That way, it has no choice but to fetch the latest
values.

Before this patch, several functions in rgrp.c checked the value of
rgd->rd_free_clone. That does not take into account blocks that were
reserved by a multi-block reservation. This causes a problem when
space gets tight in the file system. For example, when function
gfs2_inplace_reserve checks to see if a rgrp has enough blocks to
satisfy the request, it can accept a rgrp that it should reject
because, although there are enough blocks to satisfy the request
_now_, those blocks may be reserved for another running process.
A second problem with this occurs when we've reserved the remaining
blocks in an rgrp: function rg_mblk_search() can reject an rgrp
improperly because it calculates:
u32 free_blocks = rgd->rd_free_clone - rgd->rd_reserved;
But rd_reserved includes blocks that the current process just
reserved in its own call to inplace_reserve. For example, it can
reserve the last 128 blocks of an rgrp, then reject that same rgrp
because the above calculates out to free_blocks = 0;
Consequences include, but are not limited to, (1) leaving holes,
and thus increasing file system fragmentation, and (2) reporting
file system is full long before it actually is.
This patch introduces a new function, rgd_free, which returns the
number of clone-free blocks (blocks that are truly free as opposed
to blocks that are still being used because an unlinked file is
still open) minus the number of blocks reserved by processes, but
not counting the blocks we ourselves reserved (because obviously
we need to allocate them).

Function gfs2_free_extlen calculates the length of an extent of
free blocks that may be reserved. The end pointer was calculated as
end = start + bh->b_size but b_size is incorrect because the
bitmap usually stops prior to the end of the buffer data on
the last bitmap.
What this means is that when you do a write, you can reserve a
chunk of blocks that runs off the end of the last bitmap. For
example, I've got a file system where there is only one bitmap
for each rgrp, so ri_length==1. I saw cases in which iozone
tried to do a big write, grabbed a large block reservation,
chose rgrp 5464152, which has ri_data0 5464153 and ri_data 8188.
So 5464153 + 8188 = 5472341 which is the end of the rgrp.
When it grabbed a reservation it got back: 5470936, length 7229.
But 5470936 + 7229 = 5478165. So the reservation starts inside
the rgrp but runs 5824 blocks past the end of the bitmap.
This patch fixes the calculation so it won't exceed the last
bitmap. It also adds a BUG_ON to guard against overflows in the
future.

Add a new rg_skip field to struct gfs2_rgrp, replacing __pad. The
rg_skip field has the following meaning:
- If rg_skip is zero, it is considered unset and not useful.
- If rg_skip is non-zero, its value will be the number of blocks between
this rgrp's address and the next rgrp's address. This can be used as a
hint by fsck.gfs2 when rebuilding a bad rindex, for example.
This will provide less dependency on the rindex in future, and allow
tools such as fsck.gfs2 to iterate the resource groups without keeping
the rindex around.
The field is updated in gfs2_rgrp_out() so that existing file systems
will have it set. This means that any resource groups that aren't ever
written will not be updated. The final rgrp is a special case as there
is no next rgrp, so it will always have a rg_skip of 0 (unless the fs is
extended).
Before this patch, gfs2_rgrp_out() zeroes the __pad field explicitly, so
the rg_skip field can get set back to 0 in cases where nodes with and
without this patch are mixed in a cluster. In some cases, the field may
bounce between being set by one node and then zeroed by another which
may harm performance slightly, e.g. when two nodes create many small
files. In testing this situation is rare but it becomes more likely as
the filesystem fills up and there are fewer resource groups to choose
from. The problem goes away when all nodes are running with this patch.
Dipping into the space currently occupied by the rg_reserved field would
have resulted in the same problem as it is also explicitly zeroed, so
unfortunately there is no other way around it.

Before this patch, function gfs2_free_di was 4 lines of code, and
one of those lines was to call gfs2_free_uninit_di. Although
unlikely, if function gfs2_free_uninit_di encountered an error
finding the block to be freed, the error was silently ignored by the
caller, which went ahead and improperly did a quota-change operation
and meta_wipe despite the error. This patch combines the two
functions into one to make the code more readable and fixes the bug
by returning from the combined function before it takes those next
incorrect steps.
