When adding a new remote attribute, we write the attribute to the
new extent before the allocation transaction is committed. This
means we cannot reuse busy extents as that violates crash
consistency semantics. Hence we currently treat remote attribute
extent allocation like userdata because it has the same overwrite
ordering constraints as userdata.
Unfortunately, this also allows the allocator to incorrectly apply
extent size hints to the remote attribute extent allocation. This
results in interesting failures, such as transaction block
reservation overruns and in-memory inode attribute fork corruption.
To fix this, we need to separate the busy extent reuse configuration
from the userdata configuration. This changes the definition of
XFS_BMAPI_METADATA slightly - it now means that allocation is
metadata and reuse of busy extents is acceptible due to the metadata
ordering semantics of the journal. If this flag is not set, it
means the allocation is that has unordered data writeback, and hence
busy extent reuse is not allowed. It no longer implies the
allocation is for user data, just that the data write will not be
strictly ordered. This matches the semantics for both user data
and remote attribute block allocation.
As such, This patch changes the "userdata" field to a "datatype"
field, and adds a "no busy reuse" flag to the field.
When we detect an unordered data extent allocation, we immediately set
the no reuse flag. We then set the "user data" flags based on the
inode fork we are allocating the extent to. Hence we only set
userdata flags on data fork allocations now and consider attribute
fork remote extents to be an unordered metadata extent.
The result is that remote attribute extents now have the expected
allocation semantics, and the data fork allocation behaviour is
completely unchanged.
It should be noted that there may be other ways to fix this (e.g.
use ordered metadata buffers for the remote attribute extent data
write) but they are more invasive and difficult to validate both
from a design and implementation POV. Hence this patch takes the
simple, obvious route to fixing the problem...

One unfortunate quirk of the reference count and reverse mapping
btrees -- they can expand in size when blocks are written to *other*
allocation groups if, say, one large extent becomes a lot of tiny
extents. Since we don't want to start throwing errors in the middle
of CoWing, we need to reserve some blocks to handle future expansion.
The transaction block reservation counters aren't sufficient here
because we have to have a reserve of blocks in every AG, not just
somewhere in the filesystem.
Therefore, create two per-AG block reservation pools. One feeds the
AGFL so that rmapbt expansion always succeeds, and the other feeds all
other metadata so that refcountbt expansion never fails.
Use the count of how many reserved blocks we need to have on hand to
create a virtual reservation in the AG. Through selective clamping of
the maximum length of allocation requests and of the length of the
longest free extent, we can make it look like there's less free space
in the AG unless the reservation owner is asking for blocks.
In other words, play some accounting tricks in-core to make sure that
we always have blocks available. On the plus side, there's nothing to
clean up if we crash, which is contrast to the strategy that the rough
draft used (actually removing extents from the freespace btrees).

The rmap btree is allocated from the AGFL, which means we have to
ensure ENOSPC is reported to userspace before we run out of free
space in each AG. The last allocation in an AG can cause a full
height rmap btree split, and that means we have to reserve at least
this many blocks *in each AG* to be placed on the AGFL at ENOSPC.
Update the various space calculation functions to handle this.
Also, because the macros are now executing conditional code and are
called quite frequently, convert them to functions that initialise
variables in the struct xfs_mount, use the new variables everywhere
and document the calculations better.

For the rmap btree to work, we have to feed the extent owner
information to the the allocation and freeing functions. This
information is what will end up in the rmap btree that tracks
allocated extents. While we technically don't need the owner
information when freeing extents, passing it allows us to validate
that the extent we are removing from the rmap btree actually
belonged to the owner we expected it to belong to.
We also define a special set of owner values for internal metadata
that would otherwise have no owner. This allows us to tell the
difference between metadata owned by different per-ag btrees, as
well as static fs metadata (e.g. AG headers) and internal journal
blocks.
There are also a couple of special cases we need to take care of -
during EFI recovery, we don't actually know who the original owner
was, so we need to pass a wildcard to indicate that we aren't
checking the owner for validity. We also need special handling in
growfs, as we "free" the space in the last AG when extending it, but
because it's new space it has no actual owner...
While touching the xfs_bmap_add_free() function, re-order the
parameters to put the struct xfs_mount first.
Extend the owner field to include both the owner type and some sort
of index within the owner. The index field will be used to support
reverse mappings when reflink is enabled.
When we're freeing extents from an EFI, we don't have the owner
information available (rmap updates have their own redo items).
xfs_free_extent therefore doesn't need to do an rmap update. Make
sure that the log replay code signals this correctly.
This is based upon a patch originally from Dave Chinner. It has been
extended to add more owner information with the intent of helping
recovery operations when things go wrong (e.g. offset of user data
block in a file).

XFS reserves a small amount of space in each AG for the minimum
number of free blocks needed for operation. Adding the rmap btree
increases the number of reserved blocks, but it also increases the
complexity of the calculation as the free inode btree is optional
(like the rmbt).
Rather than calculate the prealloc blocks every time we need to
check it, add a function to calculate it at mount time and store it
in the struct xfs_mount, and convert the XFS_PREALLOC_BLOCKS macro
just to use the xfs-mount variable directly.

To enable DAX to do atomic allocation of zeroed extents, we need to
drive the block zeroing deep into the allocator. Because
xfs_bmapi_write() can return merged extents on allocation that were
only partially allocated (i.e. requested range spans allocated and
hole regions, allocation into the hole was contiguous), we cannot
zero the extent returned from xfs_bmapi_write() as that can
overwrite existing data with zeros.
Hence we have to drive the extent zeroing into the allocation code,
prior to where we merge the extents into the BMBT and return the
resultant map. This means we need to propagate this need down to
the xfs_alloc_vextent() and issue the block zeroing at this point.
While this functionality is being introduced for DAX, there is no
reason why it is specific to DAX - we can per-zero blocks during the
allocation transaction on any type of device. It's just slow (and
usually slower than unwritten allocation and conversion) on
traditional block devices so doesn't tend to get used. We can,
however, hook hardware zeroing optimisations via sb_issue_zeroout()
to this operation, so it may be useful in future and hence the
"allocate zeroed blocks" API needs to be implementation neutral.

We no longer calculate the minimum freelist size from the on-disk

nested macros can be cleaned up, and turn this into an actual
function so the logic is clear and concise. This will make it much
easier to add support for the rmap btree when the time comes.
This also gets rid of the XFS_AG_MAXLEVELS macro used by these
freelist macros as it is simply a wrapper around a single variable.

At the moment, xfs_alloc_fix_freelist() uses a mix of per-ag based
access and agf buffer based access to freelist and space usage
information. However, once the AGF buffer is locked inside this
function, it is guaranteed that both the in-memory and on-disk
values are identical. xfs_alloc_fix_freelist() doesn't modify the
values in the structures directly, so it is a read-only user of the
infomration, and hence can use the per-ag structure exclusively for
determining what it should do.
This opens up an avenue for cleaning up a lot of duplicated logic
whose only difference is the structure it gets the data from, and in
doing so removes a lot of needless byte swapping overhead when
fixing up the free list.

The block allocator supports various arguments to tweak block allocation
behavior and set allocation requirements. The sparse inode chunk feature
introduces a new requirement not supported by the current arguments.
Sparse inode allocations must convert or merge into an inode record that
describes a fixed length chunk (64 inodes x inodesize). Full inode chunk
allocations by definition always result in valid inode records. Sparse
chunk allocations are smaller and the associated records can refer to
blocks not owned by the inode chunk. This model can result in invalid
inode records in certain cases.
For example, if a sparse allocation occurs near the start of an AG, the
aligned inode record for that chunk might refer to agbno 0. If an
allocation occurs towards the end of the AG and the AG size is not
aligned, the inode record could refer to blocks beyond the end of the
AG. While neither of these scenarios directly result in corruption, they
both insert invalid inode records and at minimum cause repair to
complain, are unlikely to merge into full chunks over time and set land
mines for other areas of code.
To guarantee sparse inode chunk allocation creates valid inode records,
support the ability to specify an agbno range limit for
XFS_ALLOCTYPE_NEAR_BNO block allocations. The min/max agbno's are
specified in the allocation arguments and limit the block allocation
algorithms to that range. The starting 'agbno' hint is clamped to the
range if the specified agbno is out of range. If no sufficient extent is
available within the range, the allocation fails. For backwards
compatibility, the min/max fields can be initialized to 0 to disable
range limiting (e.g., equivalent to min=0,max=agsize).
