Pull btrfs fixes and features from Chris Mason:
"We've merged in the error handling patches from SuSE. These are
already shipping in the sles kernel, and they give btrfs the ability
to abort transactions and go readonly on errors. It involves a lot of
churn as they clarify BUG_ONs, and remove the ones we now properly
deal with.
Josef reworked the way our metadata interacts with the page cache.
page->private now points to the btrfs extent_buffer object, which
makes everything faster. He changed it so we write an whole extent
buffer at a time instead of allowing individual pages to go down,,
which will be important for the raid5/6 code (for the 3.5 merge
window ;)
Josef also made us more aggressive about dropping pages for metadata
blocks that were freed due to COW. Overall, our metadata caching is
much faster now.
We've integrated my patch for metadata bigger than the page size.
This allows metadata blocks up to 64KB in size. In practice 16K and
32K seem to work best. For workloads with lots of metadata, this cuts
down the size of the extent allocation tree dramatically and fragments
much less.
Scrub was updated to support the larger block sizes, which ended up
being a fairly large change (thanks Stefan Behrens).
We also have an assortment of fixes and updates, especially to the
balancing code (Ilya Dryomov), the back ref walker (Jan Schmidt) and
the defragging code (Liu Bo)."
Fixed up trivial conflicts in fs/btrfs/scrub.c that were just due to
removal of the second argument to k[un]map_atomic() in commit
7ac687d9e0.

seek=$i conv=notrunc 2> /dev/null; done && sync
then we'll get to defrag "foobar" again and again.
So does option "-o autodefrag,compress".
Reasons:
When the cleaner kthread gets to fetch inodes from the defrag tree and defrag
them, it will dirty pages and submit them, this will comes to another DATA COW
where the processing inode will be inserted to the defrag tree again.
This patch sets a rule for COW code, i.e. insert an inode when we're really
going to make some defragments.

This patch simplifies how we track our extent buffers. Previously we could exit
writepages with only having written half of an extent buffer, which meant we had
to track the state of the pages and the state of the extent buffers differently.
Now we only read in entire extent buffers and write out entire extent buffers,
this allows us to simply set bits in our bflags to indicate the state of the eb
and we no longer have to do things like track uptodate with our iotree. Thanks,

btrfs currently handles most errors with BUG_ON. This patch is a work-in-

In submit_extent_page, there's a visually noisy if statement that, in
the midst of other conditions, does the tree dependency for tree->ops
and tree->ops->merge_bio_hook before calling it, and then another
condition afterwards. If an error is returned from merge_bio_hook,
there's no way to catch it. It's considered a routine "1" return
value instead of a failure.
This patch factors out the dependency check into a new local merge_bio
routine and BUG's on an error. The if statement is less noisy as a side-
effect.

btrfs_submit_bio_hook currently calls btrfs_bio_wq_end_io in either case

We encountered an issue that was easily observable on s/390 systems but
could really happen anywhere. The timing just seemed to hit reliably
on s/390 with limited memory.
The gist is that when an unexpected set_page_dirty() happened, we'd
run into the BUG() in btrfs_writepage_fixup_worker since it wasn't
properly set up for delalloc.
This patch does the following:
- Performs the missing delalloc in the fixup worker
- Allow the start hook to return -EBUSY which informs __extent_writepage
that it should mark the page skipped and not to redirty it. This is
required since the fixup worker can fail with -ENOSPC and the page
will have already been redirtied. That causes an Oops in
drop_outstanding_extents later. Retrying the fixup worker could
lead to an infinite loop. Deferring the page redirty also saves us
some cycles since the page would be stuck in a resubmit-redirty loop
until the fixup worker completes. It's not harmful, just wasteful.
- If the fixup worker fails, we mark the page and mapping as errored,
and end the writeback, similar to what we would do had the page
actually been submitted to writeback.

We've been seeing warnings coming out of the orphan commit stuff forever from
ceph. Turns out it's because we're racing with checking if the orphan block
reserve is set, because we clear it outside of the spin_lock. So leave the
normal fastpath checks where they are, but take the spin_lock and _recheck_ to
make sure we haven't had an orphan block rsv added in the meantime. Then clear
the root's orphan block rsv and release the lock. With this patch a user said
the warnings went away and they usually showed up pretty soon after he started
ceph. Thanks,

This is because of the wrong if condition, which is used to check if we should
subtract the bytes of the dropped range from i_blocks/i_bytes of i-node or not.
When we truncate a compressed extent, btrfs substracts the bytes of the whole

A user reported a problem where things like open with O_CREAT would take up to
30 seconds when he had nfs activity on the same mount. This is because all of
our quick metadata operations, like create, symlink etc all do
btrfs_end_transaction_throttle, which if the transaction is blocked will wait
for the commit to complete before it returns. This adds a ridiculous amount of
latency and isn't really needed. The normal btrfs_end_transaction will mark the
transaction as blocked and wake the transaction kthread up if it thinks the
transaction needs to end (this being in the running out of global reserve space
scenario), and this is all that is really needed since we've already done
everything we're going to do, we just need to return. This should help people
with the latency they were seeing when using synchronous heavy workloads.

We were occasionaly leaking space when running xfstest 269. This is because if
we failed to start the transaction in the truncate loop we'd just goto out, but

Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>
Running xfstests 269 with some tracing my scripts kept spitting out errors about
releasing bytes that we didn't actually have reserved. This took me down a huge
rabbit hole and it turns out the way we deal with reserved_extents is wrong,
we need to only be setting it if the reservation succeeds, otherwise the free()
method will come in and unreserve space that isn't actually reserved yet, which
can lead to other warnings and such. The math was all working out right in the
end, but it caused all sorts of other issues in addition to making my scripts
yell and scream and generally make it impossible for me to track down the
original issue I was looking for. The other problem is with our error handling
in the reservation code. There are two cases that we need to deal with
1) We raced with free. In this case free won't free anything because csum_bytes
is modified before we dro the lock in our reservation path, so free rightly
doesn't release any space because the reservation code may be depending on that
reservation. However if we fail, we need the reservation side to do the free at
that point since that space is no longer in use. So as it stands the code was
doing this fine and it worked out, except in case #2
2) We don't race with free. Nobody comes in and changes anything, and our
reservation fails. In this case we didn't reserve anything anyway and we just
need to clean up csum_bytes but not free anything. So we keep track of
csum_bytes before we drop the lock and if it hasn't changed we know we can just
decrement csum_bytes and carry on.
Because of the case where we can race with free()'s since we have to drop our
spin_lock to do the reservation, I'm going to serialize all reservations with
the i_mutex. We already get this for free in the heavy use paths, truncate and
file write all hold the i_mutex, just needed to add it to page_mkwrite and
various ioctl/balance things. With this patch my space leak scripts no longer
scream bloody murder. Thanks,

Now that we're properly keeping track of delayed inode space we've been getting
a lot of warnings out of btrfs_dirty_inode() when running xfstest 83. This is
because a bunch of people call mark_inode_dirty, which is void so we can't
return ENOSPC. This needs to be fixed in a few areas
1) file_update_time - this updates the mtime and such when writing to a file,
which will call mark_inode_dirty. So copy file_update_time into btrfs so we can
call btrfs_dirty_inode directly and return an error if we get one appropriately.
2) fix symlinks to use btrfs_setattr for ->setattr. For some reason we weren't
setting ->setattr for symlinks, even though we should have been. This catches
one of the cases where we were getting errors in mark_inode_dirty.
3) Fix btrfs_setattr and btrfs_setsize to call btrfs_dirty_inode directly
instead of mark_inode_dirty. This lets us return errors properly for truncate
and chown/anything related to setattr.
4) Add a new btrfs_fs_dirty_inode which will just call btrfs_dirty_inode and
print an error if we have one. The only remaining user we can't control for
this is touch_atime(), but we don't really want to keep people from walking
down the tree if we don't have space to save the atime update, so just complain
but don't worry about it.

The Smack LSM hook for security_d_instantiate checks
the inode's i_op->getxattr value to determine if the
containing filesystem supports extended attributes.
The BTRFS filesystem sets the inode's i_op value only
after it has instantiated the inode. This results in
Smack incorrectly giving new BTRFS inodes attributes
from the filesystem defaults on the assumption that
values can't be stored on the filesystem. This patch
moves the assignment of inode operation vectors ahead
of the calls to d_instantiate, letting Smack know that
the filesystem supports extended attributes. There
should be no impact on the performance or behavior of

Currently if a subvol deletion gets interrupted twice by umount/mount, the
