55f020db66 ext4: add flag to ext4_has_free_blocks
This patch adds an allocation request flag to the ext4_has_free_blocks
function which enables the use of reserved blocks.  This will allow a
punch hole to proceed even if the disk is full.  Punching a hole may
require additional blocks to first split the extents.

Because ext4_has_free_blocks is a low level function, the flag needs
to be passed down through several functions listed below:

ext4_ext_insert_extent
ext4_ext_create_new_leaf
ext4_ext_grow_indepth
ext4_ext_split
ext4_ext_new_meta_block
ext4_mb_new_blocks
ext4_claim_free_blocks
ext4_has_free_blocks

537a03103c ext4: unify the ext4_handle_release_buffer() api
There are two wrapper functions which do exactly the same thing:
ext4_journal_release_buffer(), and ext4_handle_release_buffer().  In
addition, ext4_xattr_block_set() calls jbd2_journal_release_buffer()
directly.

Unify all of the code to use ext4_handle_release_buffer(), and get rid
of ext4_journal_release_buffer().

a0375156ca ext4: Clean up s_dirt handling
We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
is enabled.  In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted.  As a
result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
journal or by setting s_dirt.  There are a few exceptions, most
notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.

This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
with a journal.

Get rid of the alloc_space, free_space, reserve_space, claim_space and
release_rsv dquot operations - they are always called from the filesystem

Move shared logic into the common __dquot_alloc_space,
dquot_claim_space_nodirty and __dquot_free_space low-level methods,
and rationalize the wrappers around it to move as much as possible
code into the common block for CONFIG_QUOTA vs not.  Also rename

d3533d72e7 ext4: Eliminate potential double free on error path
b_entry_name and buffer are initially NULL, are initialized within a loop
to the result of calling kmalloc, and are freed at the bottom of this loop.
The loop contains gotos to cleanup, which also frees b_entry_name and
buffer.  Some of these gotos are before the reinitializations of
b_entry_name and buffer.  To maintain the invariant that b_entry_name and
buffer are NULL at the top of the loop, and thus acceptable arguments to
kfree, these variables are now set to NULL after the kfrees.

This seems to be the simplest solution.  A more complicated solution
would be to introduce more labels in the error handling code at the end of
the function.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r@
identifier E;
expression E1;
iterator I;
statement S;
@@

*kfree(E);
... when != E = E1
    when != I(E,...) S
    when != &E
*kfree(E);

431547b3c4 sanitize xattr handler prototypes
Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr
handler methods.  This allows using the same methods for multiple
handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action
for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying
attribute.  With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the
methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and
jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch.

Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow
using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later,
e.g. cifs.

e6362609b6 ext4: call ext4_forget() from ext4_free_blocks()
Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from
ext4_free_blocks().  This simplifies the code in a large number of
places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into
a single place.

Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling
ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the
conversion.  As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after
the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as
data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks.  With
this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the
EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

fb0a387dcd ext4: limit block allocations for indirect-block files to < 2^32
Today, the ext4 allocator will happily allocate blocks past
2^32 for indirect-block files, which results in the block
numbers getting truncated, and corruption ensues.

This patch limits such allocations to < 2^32, and adds
BUG_ONs if we do get blocks larger than that.

This should address RH Bug 519471, ext4 bitmap allocator 
must limit blocks to < 2^32

* ext4_find_goal() is modified to choose a goal < UINT_MAX,
  so that our starting point is in an acceptable range.

* ext4_xattr_block_set() is modified such that the goal block
  is < UINT_MAX, as above.

* ext4_mb_regular_allocator() is modified so that the group
  search does not continue into groups which are too high

* ext4_mb_use_preallocated() has a check that we don't use
  preallocated space which is too far out

* ext4_alloc_blocks() and ext4_xattr_block_set() add some BUG_ONs

No attempt has been made to limit inode locations to < 2^32,
so we may wind up with blocks far from their inodes.  Doing
this much already will lead to some odd ENOSPC issues when the
"lower 32" gets full, and further restricting inodes could
make that even weirder.

For high inodes, choosing a goal of the original, % UINT_MAX,
may be a bit odd, but then we're in an odd situation anyway,
and I don't know of a better heuristic.

0390131ba8 ext4: Allow ext4 to run without a journal
A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run
without a journal.  Since that time I've integrated the excellent
comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs.  We're currently
running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without
a journal.  It just so happens that running without a journal is
slightly faster for most everything.

We did
	iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2

which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
to bypass the page cache.  Results:

                     ext2        ext4, default   ext4, no journal
  initial writes   13.0 MB/s        15.4 MB/s          15.7 MB/s
  rewrites         13.1 MB/s        15.6 MB/s          15.9 MB/s
  reads            15.2 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
  re-reads         15.3 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
  random readers    5.6 MB/s         5.6 MB/s           5.7 MB/s
  random writers    5.1 MB/s         5.3 MB/s           5.4 MB/s 

So it seems that, so far, this was a useful exercise.

7061eba75c ext4: Use inode preallocation with -o noextents
When mballoc is enabled, block allocation for old block-based
files are allocated using mballoc allocator instead of old
block-based allocator. The old ext3 block reservation is turned
off when mballoc is turned on.

However, the in-core preallocation is not enabled for block-based/
non-extent based file block allocation. This result in performance
regression, as now we don't have "reservation" ore in-core preallocation
to prevent interleaved fragmentation in multiple writes workload.

This patch fix this by enable per inode in-core preallocation
for non extent files when mballoc is used.

this bug is we will lost the xattr block which pointed by i_file_acl with all

entry in it.  The old xattr block will become orphan block.

335e92e8a5 vfs: fix possible deadlock in ext2, ext3, ext4 when using xattrs
mb_cache_entry_alloc() was allocating cache entries with GFP_KERNEL.  But
filesystems are calling this function while holding xattr_sem so possible
recursion into the fs violates locking ordering of xattr_sem and transaction
start / i_mutex for ext2-4.  Change mb_cache_entry_alloc() so that filesystems
can specify desired gfp mask and use GFP_NOFS from all of them.

6dd4ee7cab ext4: Expand extra_inodes space per the s_{want,min}_extra_isize fields
We need to make sure that existing ext3 filesystems can also avail the
new fields that have been added to the ext4 inode. We use
s_want_extra_isize and s_min_extra_isize to decide by how much we should
expand the inode. If EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE feature is set
then we expand the inode by max(s_want_extra_isize, s_min_extra_isize ,
sizeof(ext4_inode) - EXT4_GOOD_OLD_INODE_SIZE) bytes. Actually it is
still an open question about whether users should be able to set
s_*_extra_isize smaller than the known fields or not.

This patch also adds the functionality to expand inodes to include the
newly added fields. We start by trying to expand by s_want_extra_isize
bytes and if its fails we try to expand by s_min_extra_isize bytes. This
is done by changing the i_extra_isize if enough space is available in
the inode and no EAs are present. If EAs are present and there is enough
space in the inode then the EAs in the inode are shifted to make space.
If enough space is not available in the inode due to the EAs then 1 or
more EAs are shifted to the external EA block. In the worst case when
even the external EA block does not have enough space we inform the user
that some EA would need to be deleted or s_min_extra_isize would have to
be reduced.

ef7f38359e ext4: Add nanosecond timestamps
This patch adds nanosecond timestamps for ext4. This involves adding
*time_extra fields to the ext4_inode to extend the timestamps to
64-bits.  Creation time is also added by this patch.

These extended fields will fit into an inode if the filesystem was
formatted with large inodes (-I 256 or larger) and there are currently
no EAs consuming all of the available space. For new inodes we always
reserve enough space for the kernel's known extended fields, but for
inodes created with an old kernel this might not have been the case. So
this patch also adds the EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE feature
flag(ro-compat so that older kernels can't create inodes with a smaller
extra_isize). which indicates if the fields fitting inside
s_min_extra_isize are available or not.  If the expansion of inodes if
unsuccessful then this feature will be disabled.  This feature is only
enabled if requested by the sysadmin.

None of the extended inode fields is critical for correct filesystem
operation.

8a2bfdcbfa [PATCH] ext[34]: EA block reference count racing fix
There are race issues around ext[34] xattr block release code.

ext[34]_xattr_release_block() checks the reference count of xattr block
(h_refcount) and frees that xattr block if it is the last one reference it.
 Unlike ext2, the check of this counter is unprotected by any lock.
ext[34]_xattr_release_block() will free the mb_cache entry before freeing
that xattr block.  There is a small window between the check for the re
h_refcount ==1 and the call to mb_cache_entry_free().  During this small
window another inode might find this xattr block from the mbcache and reuse
it, racing a refcount updates.  The xattr block will later be freed by the
first inode without notice other inode is still use it.  Later if that
block is reallocated as a datablock for other file, then more serious
problem might happen.

We need put a lock around places checking the refount as well to avoid
racing issue.  Another place need this kind of protection is in
ext3_xattr_block_set(), where it will modify the xattr block content in-
the-fly if the refcount is 1 (means it's the only inode reference it).

This will also fix another issue: the xattr block may not get freed at all
if no lock is to protect the refcount check at the release time.  It is
possible that the last two inodes could release the shared xattr block at
the same time.  But both of them think they are not the last one so only
decreased the h_refcount without freeing xattr block at all.

We need to call lock_buffer() after ext3_journal_get_write_access() to
avoid deadlock (because the later will call lock_buffer()/unlock_buffer
() as well).
