One of the things that kills us is the fact that our ENOSPC reservations are
horribly over the top in most normal cases. There isn't too much that can be
done about this because when we are completely full we really need them to work
like this so we don't under reserve. However if there is plenty of unallocated
chunks on the disk we can use that to gauge how much we can overcommit. So this
patch adds chunk free space accounting so we always know how much unallocated
space we have. Then if we fail to make a reservation within our allocated
space, check to see if we can overcommit. In the normal flushing case (like
with delalloc metadata reservations) we'll take the free space and divide it by
2 if our metadata profile is setup for DUP or any of those, and then divide it
by 8 to make sure we don't overcommit too much. Then if we're in a non-flushing
case (we really need this reservation now!) we only limit ourselves to half of
the free space. This makes this fio test

In moving some enospc stuff around I noticed that when we unmount we are often
evicting the free space cache inodes before we do our last commit. This isn't
bad, but it makes us constantly have to re-read the inodes back. So instead
don't evict the cache until after we do our last commit, this will make things a
little less crappy and makes a future enospc change work properly. Thanks,

This patch was originally from Tejun Heo. lockdep complains about the btrfs
locking because we sometimes take btree locks from two different trees at the
same time. The current classes are based only on level in the btree, which
isn't enough information for lockdep to figure out if the lock is safe.
This patch makes a class for each type of tree, and lumps all the FS trees that
actually have files and directories into the same class.

The extent_buffers have a very complex interface where
we use HIGHMEM for metadata and try to cache a kmap mapping
to access the memory.
The next commit adds reader/writer locks, and concurrent use
of this kmap cache would make it even more complex.
This commit drops the ability to use HIGHMEM with extent buffers,
and rips out all of the related code.

A user reported a deadlock when copying a bunch of files. This is because they

starting the caching kthread. To fix this we just need to use the async thread

deadlocks. Thanks,

The recent commit to get rid of our trans_mutex introduced
some races with block group relocation. The problem is that relocation
needs to do some record keeping about each root, and it was relying
on the transaction mutex to coordinate things in subtle ways.
This fix adds a mutex just for the relocation code and makes sure
it doesn't have a big impact on normal operations. The race is
really fixed in btrfs_record_root_in_trans, which is where we
step back and wait for the relocation code to finish accounting
setup.

We use trans_mutex for lots of things, here's a basic list
1) To serialize trans_handles joining the currently running transaction
2) To make sure that no new trans handles are started while we are committing
3) To protect the dead_roots list and the transaction lists
Really the serializing trans_handles joining is not too hard, and can really get
bogged down in acquiring a reference to the transaction. So replace the
trans_mutex with a trans_lock spinlock and use it to do the following
1) Protect fs_info->running_transaction. All trans handles have to do is check
this, and then take a reference of the transaction and keep on going.
2) Protect the fs_info->trans_list. This doesn't get used too much, basically
it just holds the current transactions, which will usually just be the currently
committing transaction and the currently running transaction at most.
3) Protect the dead roots list. This is only ever processed by splicing the
list so this is relatively simple.
4) Protect the fs_info->reloc_ctl stuff. This is very lightweight and was using
the trans_mutex before, so this is a pretty straightforward change.
5) Protect fs_info->no_trans_join. Because we don't hold the trans_lock over
the entirety of the commit we need to have a way to block new people from
creating a new transaction while we're doing our work. So we set no_trans_join
and in join_transaction we test to see if that is set, and if it is we do a
wait_on_commit.
6) Make the transaction use count atomic so we don't need to take locks to
modify it when we're dropping references.
7) Add a commit_lock to the transaction to make sure multiple people trying to
commit the same transaction don't race and commit at the same time.
8) Make open_ioctl_trans an atomic so we don't have to take any locks for ioctl
trans.
I have tested this with xfstests, but obviously it is a pretty hairy change so
lots of testing is greatly appreciated. Thanks,

- Modify the patch address David Sterba's comment.
- Fix the bug of the cpu recursion spinlock, reported by Chris Mason
Changelog V1 -> V2:
- break up the global rb-tree, use a list to manage the delayed nodes,
which is created for every directory and file, and used to manage the
delayed directory name index items and the delayed inode item.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed nodes.
Compare with Ext3/4, the performance of file creation and deletion on btrfs
is very poor. the reason is that btrfs must do a lot of b+ tree insertions,
such as inode item, directory name item, directory name index and so on.
If we can do some delayed b+ tree insertion or deletion, we can improve the
performance, so we made this patch which implemented delayed directory name
index insertion/deletion and delayed inode update.
Implementation:
- introduce a delayed root object into the filesystem, that use two lists to
manage the delayed nodes which are created for every file/directory.
One is used to manage all the delayed nodes that have delayed items. And the
other is used to manage the delayed nodes which is waiting to be dealt with
by the work thread.
- Every delayed node has two rb-tree, one is used to manage the directory name
index which is going to be inserted into b+ tree, and the other is used to
manage the directory name index which is going to be deleted from b+ tree.
- introduce a worker to deal with the delayed operation. This worker is used
to deal with the works of the delayed directory name index items insertion
and deletion and the delayed inode update.
When the delayed items is beyond the lower limit, we create works for some
delayed nodes and insert them into the work queue of the worker, and then
go back.
When the delayed items is beyond the upper bound, we create works for all
the delayed nodes that haven't been dealt with, and insert them into the work
queue of the worker, and then wait for that the untreated items is below some
threshold value.
- When we want to insert a directory name index into b+ tree, we just add the
information into the delayed inserting rb-tree.
And then we check the number of the delayed items and do delayed items
balance. (The balance policy is above.)
- When we want to delete a directory name index from the b+ tree, we search it
in the inserting rb-tree at first. If we look it up, just drop it. If not,
add the key of it into the delayed deleting rb-tree.
Similar to the delayed inserting rb-tree, we also check the number of the
delayed items and do delayed items balance.
(The same to inserting manipulation)
- When we want to update the metadata of some inode, we cached the data of the
inode into the delayed node. the worker will flush it into the b+ tree after
dealing with the delayed insertion and deletion.
- We will move the delayed node to the tail of the list after we access the
delayed node, By this way, we can cache more delayed items and merge more
inode updates.
- If we want to commit transaction, we will deal with all the delayed node.
- the delayed node will be freed when we free the btrfs inode.
- Before we log the inode items, we commit all the directory name index items
and the delayed inode update.
I did a quick test by the benchmark tool[1] and found we can improve the
performance of file creation by ~15%, and file deletion by ~20%.

This adds an initial implementation for scrub. It works quite
straightforward. The usermode issues an ioctl for each device in the
fs. For each device, it enumerates the allocated device chunks. For
each chunk, the contained extents are enumerated and the data checksums
fetched. The extents are read sequentially and the checksums verified.
If an error occurs (checksum or EIO), a good copy is searched for. If
one is found, the bad copy will be rewritten.
All enumerations happen from the commit roots. During a transaction
commit, the scrubs get paused and afterwards continue from the new
roots.
This commit is based on the series originally posted to linux-btrfs
with some improvements that resulted from comments from David Sterba,
Ilya Dryomov and Jan Schmidt.

This is similar to block group caching.
We dedicate a special inode in fs tree to save free ino cache.
At the very first time we create/delete a file after mount, the free ino
cache will be loaded from disk into memory. When the fs tree is commited,
the cache will be written back to disk.
To keep compatibility, we check the root generation against the generation
of the special inode when loading the cache, so the loading will fail
if the btrfs filesystem was mounted in an older kernel before.

Currently btrfs stores the highest objectid of the fs tree, and it always
returns (highest+1) inode number when we create a file, so inode numbers
won't be reclaimed when we delete files, so we'll run out of inode numbers
as we keep create/delete files in 32bits machines.
This fixes it, and it works similarly to how we cache free space in block
cgroups.
We start a kernel thread to read the file tree. By scanning inode items,
we know which chunks of inode numbers are free, and we cache them in
an rb-tree.
Because we are searching the commit root, we have to carefully handle the
cross-transaction case.
The rb-tree is a hybrid extent+bitmap tree, so if we have too many small
chunks of inode numbers, we'll use bitmaps. Initially we allow 16K ram
of extents, and a bitmap will be used if we exceed this threshold. The
extents threshold is adjusted in runtime.

root_item->flags and root_item->byte_limit are not initialized when
a subvolume is created. This bug is not revealed until we added
readonly snapshot support - now you mount a btrfs filesystem and you
may find the subvolumes in it are readonly.
To work around this problem, we steal a bit from root_item->inode_item->flags,
and use it to indicate if those fields have been properly initialized.
When we read a tree root from disk, we check if the bit is set, and if
not we'll set the flag and initialize the two fields of the root item.
