Christoph Hellwig 02afc27fae direct-io: Handle O_(D)SYNC AIO
Call generic_write_sync() from the deferred I/O completion handler if
O_DSYNC is set for a write request.  Also make sure various callers
don't call generic_write_sync if the direct I/O code returns
-EIOCBQUEUED.

Based on an earlier patch from Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> with updates from
Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> and Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@oracle.com>.

Jan Kara a361293f5f jbd2: Fix oops in jbd2_journal_file_inode()
Commit 0713ed0cde added
jbd2_journal_file_inode() call into ext4_block_zero_page_range().
However that function gets called from truncate path and thus inode
needn't have jinode attached - that happens in ext4_file_open() but
the file needn't be ever open since mount. Calling
jbd2_journal_file_inode() without jinode attached results in the oops.

We fix the problem by attaching jinode to inode also in ext4_truncate()
and ext4_punch_hole() when we are going to zero out partial blocks.

Jie Liu 46a1c2c7ae vfs: export lseek_execute() to modules
For those file systems(btrfs/ext4/ocfs2/tmpfs) that support
SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE functions, we end up handling the similar
matter in lseek_execute() to update the current file offset
to the desired offset if it is valid, ceph also does the
simliar things at ceph_llseek().

To reduce the duplications, this patch make lseek_execute()
public accessible so that we can call it directly from the
underlying file systems.

Thanks Dave Chinner for this suggestion.

[AV: call it vfs_setpos(), don't bring the removed 'inode' argument back]

v2->v1:
- Add kernel-doc comments for lseek_execute()
- Call lseek_execute() in ceph->llseek()

Yan, Zheng e30b5dca15 ext4: fix fio regression
We (Linux Kernel Performance project) found a regression introduced
by commit:

  f7fec032aa ext4: track all extent status in extent status tree

The commit causes about 20% performance decrease in fio random write
test. Profiler shows that rb_next() uses a lot of CPU time. The call
stack is:

  rb_next
  ext4_es_find_delayed_extent
  ext4_map_blocks
  _ext4_get_block
  ext4_get_block_write
  __blockdev_direct_IO
  ext4_direct_IO
  generic_file_direct_write
  __generic_file_aio_write
  ext4_file_write
  aio_rw_vect_retry
  aio_run_iocb
  do_io_submit
  sys_io_submit
  system_call_fastpath
  io_submit
  td_io_getevents
  io_u_queued_complete
  thread_main
  main
  __libc_start_main

The cause is that ext4_es_find_delayed_extent() doesn't have an
upper bound, it keeps searching until a delayed extent is found.
When there are a lots of non-delayed entries in the extent state
tree, ext4_es_find_delayed_extent() may uses a lot of CPU time.

members.

2) Refactored es_remove_extent() so that __es_remove_extent() can be
used by es_insert_extent() to remove the old extent entry(-ies) before
inserting a new one.

3) Rename extent_status_end() to ext4_es_end()

4) ext4_es_can_be_merged() is define to check whether two extents can
be merged or not.

5) Update and clarified comments.

Theodore Ts'o 9924a92a8c ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start()
So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for
long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass
context information for logging purposes.

The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is:

   T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
   EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats
   echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter
   echo 1 > $EVENT/enable

   ./run-my-fs-benchmark

   cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles

This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms.  Having
longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong
time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an
fsync() or an O_SYNC operation.  Here is an example line from the
trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over
1.2 seconds:

postmark-2917  [000] ....   196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32

Eric Sandeen a28a9178e8 ext4: remove unaligned AIO warning printk
Although I put this in, I now think it was a bad decision.  For most
users, there is very little to be done in this case.  They get the
message, once per day, with no real context or proposed action.  TBH,
it generates support calls when it probably does not need to; the
message sounds more dire than the situation really is.

Just nuke it.  Normal investigation via blktrace or whatnot can
reveal poor IO patterns if bad performance is encountered.

Tao Ma 939da10844 ext4: Remove CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR
Ted has sent out a RFC about removing this feature. Eric and Jan
confirmed that both RedHat and SUSE enable this feature in all their
product.  David also said that "As far as I know, it's enabled in all
Android kernels that use ext4."  So it seems OK for us.

And what's more, as inline data depends its implementation on xattr,
and to be frank, I don't run any test again inline data enabled while
xattr disabled.  So I think we should add inline data and remove this
config option in the same release.

[ The savings if you disable CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR is only 27k, which
  isn't much in the grand scheme of things.  Since no one seems to be
  testing this configuration except for some automated compile farms, on
  balance we are better removing this config option, and so that it is
  effectively always enabled. -- tytso ]

Zheng Liu c8c0df241c ext4: introduce lseek SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE support
This patch makes ext4 really support SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE flags.  Block-mapped
and extent-mapped files are fully implemented together because ext4_map_blocks
hides this differences.

After applying this patch, it will cause a failure in xfstest #285 when the file
is block-mapped due to block-mapped file isn't support fallocate(2).

I had tried to use ext4_ext_walk_space() to retrieve the offset for a
extent-mapped file.  But finally I decide to keep using ext4_map_blocks() to
support SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE because ext4_map_blocks() can hide the difference
between block-mapped file and extent-mapped file.  Moreover, in next step,
extent status tree will track all extent status, and we can get all mappings
from this tree.  So I think that using ext4_map_blocks() is a better choice.

Dmitry Monakhov c278531d39 ext4: fix ext4_flush_completed_IO wait semantics
BUG #1) All places where we call ext4_flush_completed_IO are broken
    because buffered io and DIO/AIO goes through three stages
    1) submitted io,
    2) completed io (in i_completed_io_list) conversion pended
    3) finished  io (conversion done)
    And by calling ext4_flush_completed_IO we will flush only
    requests which were in (2) stage, which is wrong because:
     1) punch_hole and truncate _must_ wait for all outstanding unwritten io
      regardless to it's state.
     2) fsync and nolock_dio_read should also wait because there is
        a time window between end_page_writeback() and ext4_add_complete_io()
        As result integrity fsync is broken in case of buffered write
        to fallocated region:
        fsync                                      blkdev_completion
	 ->filemap_write_and_wait_range
                                                   ->ext4_end_bio
                                                     ->end_page_writeback
          <-- filemap_write_and_wait_range return
	 ->ext4_flush_completed_IO
   	 sees empty i_completed_io_list but pended
   	 conversion still exist
                                                     ->ext4_add_complete_io

BUG #2) Race window becomes wider due to the 'ext4: completed_io
locking cleanup V4' patch series

This patch make following changes:
1) ext4_flush_completed_io() now first try to flush completed io and when
   wait for any outstanding unwritten io via ext4_unwritten_wait()
2) Rename function to more appropriate name.
3) Assert that all callers of ext4_flush_unwritten_io should hold i_mutex to
   prevent endless wait

Aligned and overwrite direct I/O can be parallelized.  In
ext4_file_dio_write, we first check whether these conditions are
satisfied or not.  If so, we take i_data_sem and release i_mutex lock
directly.  Meanwhile iocb->private is set to indicate that this is a
dio overwrite, and it will be handled in ext4_ext_direct_IO.

[ Added fix from Dan Carpenter to fix locking bug on the error path. ]

Eric Sandeen ec7268ce21 ext4: use core vfs llseek code for dir seeks
Use the new functionality in generic_file_llseek_size() to
accept a custom EOF position, and un-cut-and-paste all the
vfs llseek code from ext4.

Also fix up comments on ext4_llseek() to reflect reality.
