This wrapper isn't overly useful, not to say rather confusing.
Around the call to xfs_itruncate_extents it does:
- add tracing
- add a few asserts in debug builds
- conditionally update the inode size in two places
- log the inode
Both the tracing and the inode logging can be moved to xfs_itruncate_extents
as they are useful for the attribute fork as well - in fact the attr code
already does an equivalent xfs_trans_log_inode call just after calling
xfs_itruncate_extents. The conditional size updates are a mess, and there
was no reason to do them in two places anyway, as the first one was
conditional on the inode having extents - but without extents we
xfs_itruncate_extents would be a no-op and the placement wouldn't matter
anyway. Instead move the size assignments and the asserts that make sense
to the callers that want it.
As a side effect of this clean up xfs_setattr_size by introducing variables
for the old and new inode size, and moving the size updates into a common
place.

XFS inodes has several per-lifetime state fields that determine the
behaviour of the inode. These state fields are not all reset when an
inode is reused from the reclaimable state.
This can lead to unexpected behaviour of the new inode such as
speculative preallocation not being truncated away in the expected
manner for local files until the inode is subsequently truncated,
freed or cycles out of the cache. It can also lead to an inode being
considered to be a filestream inode or having been truncated when
that is not the case.
Rework the reinitialisation of the inode when it is recycled to

A long standing problem for streaming writeѕ through the NFS server
has been that the NFS server opens and closes file descriptors on an
inode for every write. The result of this behaviour is that the
->release() function is called on every close and that results in
XFS truncating speculative preallocation beyond the EOF. This has
an adverse effect on file layout when multiple files are being
written at the same time - they interleave their extents and can
result in severe fragmentation.
To avoid this problem, keep track of ->release calls made on a dirty
inode. For most cases, an inode is only going to be opened once for
writing and then closed again during it's lifetime in cache. Hence
if there are multiple ->release calls when the inode is dirty, there
is a good chance that the inode is being accessed by the NFS server.
Hence set a flag the first time ->release is called while there are
delalloc blocks still outstanding on the inode.
If this flag is set when ->release is next called, then do no
truncate away the speculative preallocation - leave it there so that
subsequent writes do not need to reallocate the delalloc space. This
will prevent interleaving of extents of different inodes written
concurrently to the same AG.
If we get this wrong, it is not a big deal as we truncate
speculative allocation beyond EOF anyway in xfs_inactive() when the
inode is thrown out of the cache.

The XFS iolock needs to be re-initialised to a new lock class before
it enters reclaim to prevent lockdep false positives. Unfortunately,
this is not sufficient protection as inodes in the XFS_IRECLAIMABLE
state can be recycled and not re-initialised before being reused.
We need to re-initialise the lock state when transfering out of
XFS_IRECLAIMABLE state to XFS_INEW, but we need to keep the same
class as if the inode was just allocated. Hence we need a specific
lockdep class variable for the iolock so that both initialisations
use the same class.
While there, add a specific class for inodes in the reclaim state so
that it is easy to tell from lockdep reports what state the inode

Under heavy multi-way parallel create workloads, the VFS struggles
to write back all the inodes that have been changed in age order.
The bdi flusher thread becomes CPU bound, spending 85% of it's time
in the VFS code, mostly traversing the superblock dirty inode list
to separate dirty inodes old enough to flush.
We already keep an index of all metadata changes in age order - in
the AIL - and continued log pressure will do age ordered writeback
without any extra overhead at all. If there is no pressure on the
log, the xfssyncd will periodically write back metadata in ascending
disk address offset order so will be very efficient.
Hence we can stop marking VFS inodes dirty during transaction commit
or when changing timestamps during transactions. This will keep the
inodes in the superblock dirty list to those containing data or
unlogged metadata changes.
However, the timstamp changes are slightly more complex than this -
there are a couple of places that do unlogged updates of the
timestamps, and the VFS need to be informed of these. Hence add a
new function xfs_trans_ichgtime() for transactional changes,
and leave xfs_ichgtime() for the non-transactional changes.

We currently do background inode flush asynchronously, resulting in
inodes being written in whatever order the background writeback
issues them. Not only that, there are also blocking and non-blocking
asynchronous inode flushes, depending on where the flush comes from.
This patch completely removes asynchronous inode writeback. It
removes all the strange writeback modes and replaces them with
either a synchronous flush or a non-blocking delayed write flush.
That is, inode flushes will only issue IO directly if they are
synchronous, and background flushing may do nothing if the operation
would block (e.g. on a pinned inode or buffer lock).
Delayed write flushes will now result in the inode buffer sitting in
the delwri queue of the buffer cache to be flushed by either an AIL
push or by the xfsbufd timing out the buffer. This will allow
accumulation of dirty inode buffers in memory and allow optimisation
of inode cluster writeback at the xfsbufd level where we have much
greater queue depths than the block layer elevators. We will also
get adjacent inode cluster buffer IO merging for free when a later
patch in the series allows sorting of the delayed write buffers
before dispatch.
This effectively means that any inode that is written back by
background writeback will be seen as flush locked during AIL
pushing, and will result in the buffers being pushed from there.
This writeback path is currently non-optimal, but the next patch
in the series will fix that problem.
A side effect of this delayed write mechanism is that background
inode reclaim will no longer directly flush inodes, nor can it wait
on the flush lock. The result is that inode reclaim must leave the
inode in the reclaimable state until it is clean. Hence attempts to
reclaim a dirty inode in the background will simply skip the inode
until it is clean and this allows other mechanisms (i.e. xfsbufd) to
do more optimal writeback of the dirty buffers. As a result, the
inode reclaim code has been rewritten so that it no longer relies on
the ambiguous return values of xfs_iflush() to determine whether it
is safe to reclaim an inode.
Portions of this patch are derived from patches by Christoph
Hellwig.

- log background reclaim inode flush errors
- just pass sync flags to xfs_iflush

A.K.A.: don't rely on xfs_iflush() return value in reclaim
We have gradually been moving checks out of the reclaim code because
they are duplicated in xfs_iflush(). We've had a history of problems
in this area, and many of them stem from the overloading of the
return values from xfs_iflush() and interaction with inode flush
locking to determine if the inode is safe to reclaim.
With the desire to move to delayed write flushing of inodes and
non-blocking inode tree reclaim walks, the overloading of the
return value of xfs_iflush makes it very difficult to determine
the correct thing to do next.
This patch explicitly re-adds the checks to the inode reclaim code,
removing the reliance on the return value of xfs_iflush() to
determine what to do next. It also means that we can clearly
document all the inode states that reclaim must handle and hence
we can easily see that we handled all the necessary cases.
This also removes the need for the xfs_inode_clean() check in
xfs_iflush() as all callers now check this first (safely).

cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to
the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new
tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control
of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the
perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter,
allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various
spots in XFS. Take a look at
http://lwn.net/Articles/346470/
for some examples.

This is picking up on Felix's repost of Dave's patch to implement a
.dirty_inode method. We really need this notification because
the VFS keeps writing directly into the inode structure instead
of going through methods to update this state. In addition to
the long-known atime issue we now also have a caller in VM code
that updates c/mtime that way for shared writeable mmaps. And
I found another one that no one has noticed in practice in the FIFO
code.
So implement ->dirty_inode to set i_update_core whenever the
inode gets externally dirtied, and switch the c/mtime handling to
the same scheme we already use for atime (always picking up
the value from the Linux inode).
Note that this patch also removes the xfs_synchronize_atime call
in xfs_reclaim it was superflous as we already synchronize the time
when writing the inode via the log (xfs_inode_item_format) or the
normal buffers (xfs_iflush_int).
In addition also remove the I_CLEAR check before copying the Linux
timestamps - now that we always have the Linux inode available
we can always use the timestamps in it.
Also switch to just using file_update_time for regular reads/writes -
that will get us all optimization done to it for free and make
sure we notice early when it breaks.

xfs_trans_iget is a wrapper for xfs_iget that adds the inode to the
transaction after it is read. Except when the inode already is in the
inode cache, in which case it returns the existing locked inode with
increment lock recursion counts.
Now, no one in the tree every decrements these lock recursion counts,
so any user of this gets a potential double unlock when both the original
owner of the inode and the xfs_trans_iget caller unlock it. When looking
back in a git bisect in the historic XFS tree there was only one place
that decremented these counts, xfs_trans_iput. Introduced in commit
ca25df7a840f426eb566d52667b6950b92bb84b5 by Adam Sweeney in 1993,
and removed in commit 19f899a3ab155ff6a49c0c79b06f2f61059afaf3 by
Steve Lord in 2003. And as long as it didn't slip through git bisects
cracks never actually used in that time frame.
A quick audit of the callers of xfs_trans_iget shows that no caller
really relies on this behaviour fortunately - xfs_ialloc allows this
inode from disk so it must not be there before, and all the RT allocator
routines only every add each RT bitmap inode once.
In addition to removing lots of code and reducing the size of the inode
item this patch also avoids the double inode cache lookup in each
create/mkdir/mknod transaction.

The guarantees for O_SYNC are exactly the same as the ones we need to
make for an fsync call (and given that Linux O_SYNC is O_DSYNC the
equivalent is fdadatasync, but we treat both the same in XFS), except
with a range data writeout. Jan Kara has started unifying these two
path for filesystems using the generic helpers, and I've started to
look at XFS.
The actual transaction commited by xfs_fsync and xfs_write_sync_logforce
has a different transaction number, but actually is exactly the same.
We'll only use the fsync transaction going forward. One major difference
is that xfs_write_sync_logforce never issues a cache flush unless we
commit a transaction causing that as a side-effect, which is an obvious
bug in the O_SYNC handling. Second all the locking and i_update_size
vs i_update_core changes from 978b723712
never made it to xfs_write_sync_logforce, so we add them back.
To make xfs_fsync easily usable from the O_SYNC path, the filemap_fdatawait
call is moved up to xfs_file_fsync, so that we don't wait on the whole
file after we already waited for our portion in xfs_write.
We'll also use a plain call to filemap_write_and_wait_range instead
of the previous sync_page_rang which did it in two steps including
an half-hearted inode write out that doesn't help us.
Once we're done with this also remove the now useless i_update_size

This patch uses splits a new xfs_inode_free helper out of xfs_ireclaim
and uses that plus __destroy_inode to make sure we really only free
the memory allocted for the inode that lost the race, and not mess with
the inode cache state.

When multiple inodes are locked in XFS it happens in order of the inode
number, with the everything but the first inode trylocked if any of the

Except for the sorting of the inodes this logic is implemented in
xfs_lock_inodes, but also partially duplicated in xfs_lock_dir_and_entry
in a particularly stupid way adds a lock roundtrip if the inode ordering
is not optimal.
This patch adds a new helper xfs_lock_two_inodes that takes two inodes and
locks them in the most optimal way according to the above locking protocol
and uses it for all places that want to lock two inodes.
The only caller of xfs_lock_inodes is xfs_rename which might lock up to

Remove the xfs_icluster structure and replace with a radix tree lookup.
We don't need to keep a list of inodes in each cluster around anymore as
we can look them up quickly when we need to. The only time we need to do
this now is during inode writeback.
Factor the inode cluster writeback code out of xfs_iflush and convert it
to use radix_tree_gang_lookup() instead of walking a list of inodes built
when we first read in the inodes.
This remove 3 pointers from each xfs_inode structure and the xfs_icluster
structure per inode cluster. Hence we reduce the cache footprint of the
xfs_inodes by between 5-10% depending on cluster sparseness.
To be truly efficient we need a radix_tree_gang_lookup_range() call to
stop searching once we are past the end of the cluster instead of trying
to find a full cluster's worth of inodes.

When pdflush is writing back inodes, it can get stuck on inode cluster
buffers that are currently under I/O. This occurs when we write data to
multiple inodes in the same inode cluster at the same time.
Effectively, delayed allocation marks the inode dirty during the data
writeback. Hence if the inode cluster was flushed during the writeback of
the first inode, the writeback of the second inode will block waiting for
the inode cluster write to complete before writing it again for the newly
dirtied inode.
Basically, we want to avoid this from happening so we don't block pdflush
and slow down all of writeback. Hence we introduce a non-blocking async
inode flush flag that pdflush uses. If this flag is set, we use
non-blocking operations (e.g. try locks) whereever we can to avoid
blocking or extra I/O being issued.

The log force added in xfs_iget_core() has been a performance issue since
it was introduced for tight loops that allocate then unlink a single file.
under heavy writeback, this can introduce unnecessary latency due tothe
log I/o getting stuck behind bulk data writes.
Fix this latency problem by avoinding the need for the log force by moving
the place we mark linux inode dirty to the transaction commit rather than
on transaction completion.
This also closes a potential hole in the sync code where a linux inode is
not dirty between the time it is modified and the time the log buffer has
been written to disk.

All flags are added to xfs_mount's m_flag instead. Note that the 32bit
inode flag was duplicated in both of them, but only cleared in the mount
when it was not nessecary due to the filesystem beeing small enough. Two
flags are still required here - one to indicate the mount option setting,
and one to indicate if it applies or not.

Now that struct bhv_vnode is empty we can just kill it. Retain bhv_vnode_t
as a typedef for struct inode for the time being until all the fallout is
cleaned up.

struct bhv_vnode is on it's way out, so move the trace buffer to the XFS
inode. Note that this makes the tracing macros rather misnamed, but this
kind of fallout will be fixed up incrementally later on.

All flags previously handled at the vnode level are not in the xfs_inode
where we already have a flags mechanisms and free bits for flags
previously in the vnode.

One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing it's incore
inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default hash sizes chosen can
only ever be a tradeoff between memory consumption and the maximum
realistic size of the cache.
As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a filesystem
needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize mount option to
allow decent scalability with inode cache operations.
A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is based
on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain conditions (sparse
cluster cache population) this can become a limitation long before the
inode hash is causing issues.
The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash and
replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability limitations of the
hashes. It also reduces the size of the inodes by 3 pointers....

Biggest bit is duplicating the dinode structure so we have one annotated for
native endianess and one for disk endianess. The other significant change
is that xfs_xlate_dinode_core is split into one helper per direction to
allow for proper annotations, everything else is trivial.
As a sidenode splitting out the incore dinode means we can move it into
xfs_inode.h in a later patch and severely improving on the include hell in
xfs.

currently xfs_bmbt_rec_t is used both for ondisk extents as well as
host-endian ones. This patch adds a new xfs_bmbt_rec_host_t for the native
endian ones and cleans up the fallout. There have been various endianess
issues in the tracing / debug printf code that are fixed by this patch.

In media spaces, video is often stored in a frame-per-file format. When
dealing with uncompressed realtime HD video streams in this format, it is
crucial that files do not get fragmented and that multiple files a placed
contiguously on disk.
When multiple streams are being ingested and played out at the same time,
it is critical that the filesystem does not cross the streams and
interleave them together as this creates seek and readahead cache miss
latency and prevents both ingest and playout from meeting frame rate
targets.
This patch set creates a "stream of files" concept into the allocator to
place all the data from a single stream contiguously on disk so that RAID
array readahead can be used effectively. Each additional stream gets
placed in different allocation groups within the filesystem, thereby
ensuring that we don't cross any streams. When an AG fills up, we select a
new AG for the stream that is not in use.
The core of the functionality is the stream tracking - each inode that we
create in a directory needs to be associated with the directories' stream.
Hence every time we create a file, we look up the directories' stream
object and associate the new file with that object.
Once we have a stream object for a file, we use the AG that the stream
object point to for allocations. If we can't allocate in that AG (e.g. it
is full) we move the entire stream to another AG. Other inodes in the same
stream are moved to the new AG on their next allocation (i.e. lazy
update).
Stream objects are kept in a cache and hold a reference on the inode.
Hence the inode cannot be reclaimed while there is an outstanding stream
reference. This means that on unlink we need to remove the stream
association and we also need to flush all the associations on certain
events that want to reclaim all unreferenced inodes (e.g. filesystem
freeze).
