Now that we have reliably tracking of deleted extents in a
transaction we can easily implement "online" discard support
which calls blkdev_issue_discard once a transaction commits.
The actual discard is a two stage operation as we first have
to mark the busy extent as not available for reuse before we
can start the actual discard. Note that we don't bother
supporting discard for the non-delaylog mode.

Background inode reclaim needs to run more frequently that the XFS
syncd work is run as 30s is too long between optimal reclaim runs.
Add a new periodic work item to the xfs syncd workqueue to run a
fast, non-blocking inode reclaim scan.
Background inode reclaim is kicked by the act of marking inodes for
reclaim. When an AG is first marked as having reclaimable inodes,
the background reclaim work is kicked. It will continue to run
periodically untill it detects that there are no more reclaimable
inodes. It will be kicked again when the first inode is queued for
reclaim.
To ensure shrinker based inode reclaim throttles to the inode
cleaning and reclaim rate but still reclaim inodes efficiently, make it kick the
background inode reclaim so that when we are low on memory we are
trying to reclaim inodes as efficiently as possible. This kick shoul
d not be necessary, but it will protect against failures to kick the
background reclaim when inodes are first dirtied.
To provide the rate throttling, make the shrinker pass do
synchronous inode reclaim so that it blocks on inodes under IO. This
means that the shrinker will reclaim inodes rather than just
skipping over them, but it does not adversely affect the rate of
reclaim because most dirty inodes are already under IO due to the
background reclaim work the shrinker kicked.
These two modifications solve one of the two OOM killer invocations
Chris Mason reported recently when running a stress testing script.
The particular workload trigger for the OOM killer invocation is
where there are more threads than CPUs all unlinking files in an
extremely memory constrained environment. Unlike other solutions,
this one does not have a performance impact on performance when
memory is not constrained or the number of concurrent threads
operating is <= to the number of CPUs.

On of the problems with the current inode flush at ENOSPC is that we
queue a flush per ENOSPC event, regardless of how many are already
queued. Thi can result in hundreds of queued flushes, most of
which simply burn CPU scanned and do no real work. This simply slows
down allocation at ENOSPC.
We really only need one active flush at a time, and we can easily
implement that via the new xfs_syncd_wq. All we need to do is queue
a flush if one is not already active, then block waiting for the
currently active flush to complete. The result is that we only ever
have a single ENOSPC inode flush active at a time and this greatly
reduces the overhead of ENOSPC processing.
On my 2p test machine, this results in tests exercising ENOSPC
conditions running significantly faster - 042 halves execution time,
083 drops from 60s to 5s, etc - while not introducing test
regressions.
This allows us to remove the old xfssyncd threads and infrastructure

All of the work xfssyncd does is background functionality. There is
no need for a thread per filesystem to do this work - it can al be
managed by a global workqueue now they manage concurrency
effectively.
Introduce a new gglobal xfssyncd workqueue, and convert the periodic
work to use this new functionality. To do this, use a delayed work
construct to schedule the next running of the periodic sync work
for the filesystem. When the sync work is complete, queue a new
delayed work for the next running of the sync work.
For laptop mode, we wait on completion for the sync works, so ensure
that the sync work queuing interface can flush and wait for work to
complete to enable the work queue infrastructure to replace the
current sequence number and wakeup that is used.
Because the sync work does non-trivial amounts of work, mark the
new work queue as CPU intensive.

Currently the size of the speculative preallocation during delayed
allocation is fixed by either the allocsize mount option of a
default size. We are seeing a lot of cases where we need to
recommend using the allocsize mount option to prevent fragmentation
when buffered writes land in the same AG.
Rather than using a fixed preallocation size by default (up to 64k),
make it dynamic by basing it on the current inode size. That way the
EOF preallocation will increase as the file size increases. Hence
for streaming writes we are much more likely to get large
preallocations exactly when we need it to reduce fragementation.

Because it is hard to take back specualtive preallocation, cases
where there are large slow growing log files on a nearly full
filesystem may cause premature ENOSPC. Hence as the filesystem nears
full, the maximum dynamic prealloc size іs reduced according to this
table (based on 4k block size):
freespace max prealloc size
>5% full extent (8GB)
4-5% 2GB (8GB >> 2)
3-4% 1GB (8GB >> 3)
2-3% 512MB (8GB >> 4)
1-2% 256MB (8GB >> 5)
<1% 128MB (8GB >> 6)
This should reduce the amount of space held in speculative
preallocation for such cases.
The allocsize mount option turns off the dynamic behaviour and fixes
the prealloc size to whatever the mount option specifies. i.e. the
behaviour is unchanged.

The delayed logging code only changes in-memory structures and as
such can be enabled and disabled with a mount option. Add the mount
option and emit a warning that this is an experimental feature that
should not be used in production yet.
We also need infrastructure to track committed items that have not
yet been written to the log. This is what the Committed Item List
(CIL) is for.
The log item also needs to be extended to track the current log
vector, the associated memory buffer and it's location in the Commit
Item List. Extend the log item and log vector structures to enable
this tracking.
To maintain the current log format for transactions with delayed
logging, we need to introduce a checkpoint transaction and a context
for tracking each checkpoint from initiation to transaction
completion. This includes adding a log ticket for tracking space
log required/used by the context checkpoint.
To track all the changes we need an io vector array per log item,
rather than a single array for the entire transaction. Using the new
log vector structure for this requires two passes - the first to
allocate the log vector structures and chain them together, and the
second to fill them out. This log vector chain can then be passed
to the CIL for formatting, pinning and insertion into the CIL.
Formatting of the log vector chain is relatively simple - it's just
a loop over the iovecs on each log vector, but it is made slightly
more complex because we re-write the iovec after the copy to point
back at the memory buffer we just copied into.
This code also needs to pin log items. If the log item is not
already tracked in this checkpoint context, then it needs to be
pinned. Otherwise it is already pinned and we don't need to pin it
again.
The only other complexity is calculating the amount of new log space
the formatting has consumed. This needs to be accounted to the
transaction in progress, and the accounting is made more complex
becase we need also to steal space from it for log metadata in the
checkpoint transaction. Calculate all this at insert time and update
all the tickets, counters, etc correctly.
Once we've formatted all the log items in the transaction, attach
the busy extents to the checkpoint context so the busy extents live
until checkpoint completion and can be processed at that point in
time. Transactions can then be freed at this point in time.
Now we need to issue checkpoints - we are tracking the amount of log space
used by the items in the CIL, so we can trigger background checkpoints when the
space usage gets to a certain threshold. Otherwise, checkpoints need ot be
triggered when a log synchronisation point is reached - a log force event.
Because the log write code already handles chained log vectors, writing the
transaction is trivial, too. Construct a transaction header, add it
to the head of the chain and write it into the log, then issue a
commit record write. Then we can release the checkpoint log ticket
and attach the context to the log buffer so it can be called during
Io completion to complete the checkpoint.
We also need to allow for synchronising multiple in-flight
checkpoints. This is needed for two things - the first is to ensure
that checkpoint commit records appear in the log in the correct
sequence order (so they are replayed in the correct order). The
second is so that xfs_log_force_lsn() operates correctly and only
flushes and/or waits for the specific sequence it was provided with.
To do this we need a wait variable and a list tracking the
checkpoint commits in progress. We can walk this list and wait for
the checkpoints to change state or complete easily, an this provides
the necessary synchronisation for correct operation in both cases.

The use of an array for the per-ag structures requires reallocation
of the array when growing the filesystem. This requires locking
access to the array to avoid use after free situations, and the
locking is difficult to get right. To avoid needing to reallocate an
array, change the per-ag structures to an allocated object per ag
and index them using a tree structure.
The AGs are always densely indexed (hence the use of an array), but
the number supported is 2^32 and lookups tend to be random and hence
indexing needs to scale. A simple choice is a radix tree - it works
well with this sort of index. This change also removes another
large contiguous allocation from the mount/growfs path in XFS.
The growing process now needs to change to only initialise the new
AGs required for the extra space, and as such only needs to
exclusively lock the tree for inserts. The rest of the code only
needs to lock the tree while doing lookups, and hence this will
remove all the deadlocks that currently occur on the m_perag_lock as
it is now an innermost lock. The lock is also changed to a spinlock
from a read/write lock as the hold time is now extremely short.
To complete the picture, the per-ag structures will need to be
reference counted to ensure that we don't free/modify them while
they are still in use. This will be done in subsequent patch.

Merge xfs_iextract and xfs_idestroy into xfs_ireclaim as they are never
called individually. Also rewrite most comments in this area as they
were severly out of date.

The only thing left are the forced shutdown flags and freeze macros which
fit into xfs_mount.h much better.

No need to parse the mount option into a structure before applying it to
struct xfs_mount.
The content of xfs_start_flags gets merged into xfs_parseargs. Calls
inbetween don't care and can use mount members instead of the args struct.
This patch uncovered that the mount option for shared filesystems wasn't
ever exposed on Linux. The code to handle it is #if 0'ed in this patch
pending a decision on this feature. I'll send a writeup about it to the
list soon.

Bring the ail lock inside the struct xfs_ail. This means the AIL can be
entirely manipulated via the struct xfs_ail rather than needing both the
struct xfs_mount and the struct xfs_ail.

Rather than embedding the struct xfs_ail in the struct xfs_mount, allocate
it during AIL initialisation. Add a back pointer to the struct xfs_ail so
that we can pass around the xfs_ail and still be able to access the
xfs_mount if need be. This is th first step involved in isolating the AIL
implementation from the surrounding filesystem code.
