Fix a corruption that can happen when we have (two or more) outstanding
aio's to an overlapping unaligned region. Ext4
(e9e3bcecf44c04b9e6b505fd8e2eb9cea58fb94d) and xfs recently had to fix
similar issues.
In our case what happens is that we can have an outstanding aio on a region
and if a write comes in with some bytes overlapping the original aio we may
decide to read that region into a page before continuing (typically because
of buffered-io fallback). Since we have no ordering guarantees with the
aio, we can read stale or bad data into the page and then write it back out.
If the i/o is page and block aligned, then we avoid this issue as there
won't be any need to read data from disk.
I took the same approach as Eric in the ext4 patch and introduced some
serialization of unaligned async direct i/o. I don't expect this to have an
effect on the most common cases of AIO. Unaligned aio will be slower
though, but that's far more acceptable than data corruption.

ocfs2 implements its own llseek() to provide the SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA
functionality.
SEEK_HOLE sets the file pointer to the start of either a hole or an unwritten
(preallocated) extent, that is greater than or equal to the supplied offset.
SEEK_DATA sets the file pointer to the start of an allocated extent (not
unwritten) that is greater than or equal to the supplied offset.
If the supplied offset is on a desired region, then the file pointer is set
to it. Offsets greater than or equal to the file size return -ENXIO.
Unwritten (preallocated) extents are considered holes because the file system
treats reads to such regions in the same way as it does to holes.

Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called
in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and
the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some
file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and
ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make
sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each
individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

Maintain i_dio_count for all filesystems, not just those using DIO_LOCKING.
This these filesystems to also protect truncate against direct I/O requests
by using common code. Right now the only non-DIO_LOCKING filesystem that
appears to do so is XFS, which uses an opencoded variant of the i_dio_count
scheme.
Behaviour doesn't change for filesystems never calling inode_dio_wait.
For ext4 behaviour changes when using the dioread_nonlock option, which
previously was missing any protection between truncate and direct I/O reads.
For ocfs2 that handcrafted i_dio_count manipulations are replaced with
the common code now enable.

Let filesystems handle waiting for direct I/O requests themselves instead
of doing it beforehand. This means filesystem-specific locks to prevent
new dio referenes from appearing can be held. This is important to allow

i_alloc_sem is a rather special rw_semaphore. It's the last one that may
be released by a non-owner, and it's write side is always mirrored by
real exclusion. It's intended use it to wait for all pending direct I/O
requests to finish before starting a truncate.
Replace it with a hand-grown construct:
- exclusion for truncates is already guaranteed by i_mutex, so it can
simply fall way
- the reader side is replaced by an i_dio_count member in struct inode
that counts the number of pending direct I/O requests. Truncate can't
proceed as long as it's non-zero
- when i_dio_count reaches non-zero we wake up a pending truncate using
wake_up_bit on a new bit in i_flags
- new references to i_dio_count can't appear while we are waiting for
it to read zero because the direct I/O count always needs i_mutex
(or an equivalent like XFS's i_iolock) for starting a new operation.
This scheme is much simpler, and saves the space of a spinlock_t and a
struct list_head in struct inode (typically 160 bits on a non-debug 64-bit
system).

In the case of removing a partial extent record which covers a hole, current
punching-hole logic will try to remove more than the length of whole extent
record, which leads to the failure of following assert(fs/ocfs2/alloc.c):
5507 BUG_ON(cpos < le32_to_cpu(rec->e_cpos) || trunc_range > rec_range);

mlog_exit is used to record the exit status of a function.
But because it is added in so many functions, if we enable it,
the system logs get filled up quickly and cause too much I/O.
So actually no one can open it for a production system or even
for a test.
This patch just try to remove it or change it. So:
1. if all the error paths already use mlog_errno, it is just removed.
Otherwise, it will be replaced by mlog_errno.
2. if it is used to print some return value, it is replaced with
mlog(0,...).
mlog_exit_ptr is changed to mlog(0.

Currently all filesystems except XFS implement fallocate asynchronously,
while XFS forced a commit. Both of these are suboptimal - in case of O_SYNC
I/O we really want our allocation on disk, especially for the !KEEP_SIZE
case where we actually grow the file with user-visible zeroes. On the
other hand always commiting the transaction is a bad idea for fast-path
uses of fallocate like for example in recent Samba versions. Given
that block allocation is a data plane operation anyway change it from
an inode operation to a file operation so that we have the file structure
available that lets us check for O_SYNC.
This also includes moving the code around for a few of the filesystems,
and remove the already unnedded S_ISDIR checks given that we only wire
up fallocate for regular files.

Due to newly-introduced 'coherency=full' O_DIRECT writes also takes the EX
rw_lock like buffered writes did(rw_level == 1), it turns out messing the
usage of 'level' in ocfs2_dio_end_io() up, which caused i_alloc_sem being
failed to get up_read'd correctly.
This patch tries to teach ocfs2_dio_end_io to understand well on all locking
stuffs by explicitly introducing a new bit for i_alloc_sem in iocb's private
data, just like what we did for rw_lock.

O_DIRECT writes.
Currently, the default behavior of O_DIRECT writes was allowing
concurrent writing among nodes to the same file, with no cluster
coherency guaranteed (no EX lock held). This can leave stale data in
the cache for buffered reads on other nodes.
The new mount option introduce a chance to choose two different
behaviors for O_DIRECT writes:
* coherency=full, as the default value, will disallow
concurrent O_DIRECT writes by taking
EX locks.
* coherency=buffered, allow concurrent O_DIRECT writes
without EX lock among nodes, which
gains high performance at risk of
getting stale data on other nodes.

commit(6b933c8e6f1a2f3118082c455eef25f9b1ac7b45).

http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1285
The commit 6b933c8e6f1a2f3118082c455eef25f9b1ac7b45 changed __generic_file_aio_write
to generic_file_buffered_write, which didn't call filemap_{write,wait}_range to flush
the pagecaches when we were falling O_DIRECT writes back to buffered ones. it did hurt
the O_DIRECT semantics somehow in extented odirect writes.
This patch tries to guarantee O_DIRECT writes of 'fall back to buffered' to be correctly
flushed.

Make sure we check the truncate constraints early on in ->setattr by adding
those checks to inode_change_ok. Also clean up and document inode_change_ok
to make this obvious.
As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and
simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error. This
simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize
almost everywhere. Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark
ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious.
Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an
audit for its removal anyway.
Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and
needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.

Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers. This
moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it
can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence.
In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate
so it was left out in the opencoded variant:
spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier
btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier
ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above
In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs,
which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.

ocfs2's allocation unit is the cluster. This can be larger than a block
or even a memory page. This means that a file may have many blocks in
its last extent that are beyond the block containing i_size. There also
may be more unwritten extents after that.
When ocfs2 grows a file, it zeros the entire cluster in order to ensure
future i_size growth will see cleared blocks. Unfortunately,
block_write_full_page() drops the pages past i_size. This means that
ocfs2 is actually leaking garbage data into the tail end of that last
cluster. This is a bug.
We adjust ocfs2_write_begin_nolock() and ocfs2_extend_file() to detect
when a write or truncate is past i_size. They will use
ocfs2_zero_extend() to ensure the data is properly zeroed.
Older versions of ocfs2_zero_extend() simply zeroed every block between
i_size and the zeroing position. This presumes three things:
1) There is allocation for all of these blocks.
2) The extents are not unwritten.
3) The extents are not refcounted.
(1) and (2) hold true for non-sparse filesystems, which used to be the
only users of ocfs2_zero_extend(). (3) is another bug.
Since we're now using ocfs2_zero_extend() for sparse filesystems as
well, we teach ocfs2_zero_extend() to check every extent between
i_size and the zeroing position. If the extent is unwritten, it is
ignored. If it is refcounted, it is CoWed. Then it is zeroed.

This patch simplifies the logic of handling existing holes and
skipping extent blocks and removes some confusing comments.
The patch survived the fill_verify_holes testcase in ocfs2-test.
It also passed my manual sanity check and stress tests with enormous
extent records.
Currently punching a hole on a file with 3+ extent tree depth was
really a performance disaster. It can even take several hours,
though we may not hit this in real life with such a huge extent
number.
One simple way to improve the performance is quite straightforward.
From the logic of truncate, we can punch the hole from hole_end to
hole_start, which reduces the overhead of btree operations in a
significant way, such as tree rotation and moving.
Following is the testing result when punching hole from 0 to file end
in bytes, on a 1G file, 1G file consists of 256k extent records, each record
cover 4k data(just one cluster, clustersize is 4k):
===========================================================================
* Original punching-hole mechanism:
===========================================================================
I waited 1 hour for its completion, unfortunately it's still ongoing.
===========================================================================
* Patched punching-hode mechanism:
===========================================================================
real 0m2.518s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m2.445s
That means we've gained up to 1000 times improvement on performance in this
case, whee! It's fairly cool. and it looks like that performance gain will
be raising when extent records grow.
The patch was based on my former 2 patches, which were about truncating
codes optimization and fixup to handle CoW on punching hole.

Based on the previous patch of optimizing truncate, the bugfix for

and straightforward since most of work we should take into account for
refcounting have been completed already in ocfs2_remove_btree_range().
This patch performs CoW for refcounted extents when a hole being punched
whose start or end offset were in the middle of a cluster, which means
partial zeroing of the cluster will be performed soon.

Truncate is just a special case of punching holes(from new i_size to
end), we therefore could take advantage of the existing
ocfs2_remove_btree_range() to reduce the comlexity and redundancy in
alloc.c. The goal here is to make truncate more generic and
straightforward.
Several functions only used by ocfs2_commit_truncate() will smiply be
removed.
ocfs2_remove_btree_range() was originally used by the hole punching
code, which didn't take refcount trees into account (definitely a bug).
We therefore need to change that func a bit to handle refcount trees.
It must take the refcount lock, calculate and reserve blocks for
refcount tree changes, and decrease refcounts at the end. We replace
ocfs2_lock_allocators() here by adding a new func
ocfs2_reserve_blocks_for_rec_trunc() which accepts some extra blocks to
reserve. This will not hurt any other code using
ocfs2_remove_btree_range() (such as dir truncate and hole punching).
I merged the following steps into one patch since they may be
logically doing one thing, though I know it looks a little bit fat
to review.
1). Remove redundant code used by ocfs2_commit_truncate(), since we're
moving to ocfs2_remove_btree_range anyway.
2). Add a new func ocfs2_reserve_blocks_for_rec_trunc() for purpose of
accepting some extra blocks to reserve.
3). Change ocfs2_prepare_refcount_change_for_del() a bit to fit our
needs. It's safe to do this since it's only being called by
truncate.
4). Change ocfs2_remove_btree_range() a bit to take refcount case into
account.
5). Finally, we change ocfs2_commit_truncate() to call
ocfs2_remove_btree_range() in a proper way.
The patch has been tested normally for sanity check, stress tests
with heavier workload will be expected.
Based on this patch, fixing the punching holes bug will be fairly easy.
