Jaegeuk Kim bba681cbb2 f2fs: introduce a batched trim
This patch introduces a batched trimming feature, which submits split discard
commands.

This is to avoid long latency due to huge trim commands.
If fstrim was triggered ranging from 0 to the end of device, we should lock
all the checkpoint-related mutexes, resulting in very long latency.

Jaegeuk Kim 081d78c2fc f2fs: should fail mount when trying to recover data on read-only dev
If device is read-only, we should not proceed data recovery.
But, if the previous checkpoint was done by normal clean shutdown, it's safe to
proceed the recovery, since there will be no data to be recovered.

Jaegeuk Kim 119ee91445 f2fs: split UMOUNT and FASTBOOT flags
This patch adds FASTBOOT flag into checkpoint as follows.

 - CP_UMOUNT_FLAG is set when system is umounted.
 - CP_FASTBOOT_FLAG is set when intermediate checkpoint having node summaries
   was done.

So, if you get CP_UMOUNT_FLAG from checkpoint, the system was umounted cleanly.
Instead, if there was sudden-power-off, you can get CP_FASTBOOT_FLAG or nothing.

Jaegeuk Kim 2d834bf9ac f2fs: support norecovery mount option
This patch adds a mount option, norecovery, which is mostly same as
disable_roll_forward. The only difference is that norecovery should be activated
with read-only mount option.

This can be used when user wants to check whether f2fs is mountable or not
without any recovery process. (e.g., xfstests/200)

Chao Yu caf0047e7e f2fs: merge flags in struct f2fs_sb_info
Currently, there are several variables with Boolean type as below:

struct f2fs_sb_info {
...
	int s_dirty;
	bool need_fsck;
	bool s_closing;
...
	bool por_doing;
...
}

For this there are some issues:
1. there are some space of f2fs_sb_info is wasted due to aligning after Boolean
   type variables by compiler.
2. if we continuously add new flag into f2fs_sb_info, structure will be messed
   up.

So in this patch, we try to:
1. switch s_dirty to Boolean type variable since it has two status 0/1.
2. merge s_dirty/need_fsck/s_closing/por_doing variables into s_flag.
3. introduce an enum type which can indicate different states of sbi.
4. use new introduced universal interfaces is_sbi_flag_set/{set,clear}_sbi_flag
   to operate flags for sbi.

After that, above issues will be fixed.

Jaegeuk Kim 30a5537f9a f2fs: trigger correct checkpoint during umount
This patch fixes to trigger checkpoint with umount flag when kill_sb was called.
In kill_sb, f2fs_sync_fs was finally called, but at this time, f2fs can't do
checkpoint with CP_UMOUNT.
After then, f2fs_put_super is not doing checkpoint, since it is not dirty.

So, this patch adds a flag to indicate f2fs_sync_fs is called during umount.

Chao Yu 062920734c f2fs: reuse inode_entry_slab in gc procedure for using slab more effectively
There are two slab cache inode_entry_slab and winode_slab using the same
structure as below:

struct dir_inode_entry {
	struct list_head list;	/* list head */
	struct inode *inode;	/* vfs inode pointer */
};

struct inode_entry {
	struct list_head list;
	struct inode *inode;
};

It's a little waste that the two cache can not share their memory space for each
other.
So in this patch we remove one redundant winode_slab slab cache, then use more
universal name struct inode_entry as remaining data structure name of slab,
finally we reuse the inode_entry_slab to store dirty dir item and gc item for

Jaegeuk Kim 88b88a6679 f2fs: support atomic writes
This patch introduces a very limited functionality for atomic write support.
In order to support atomic write, this patch adds two ioctls:
 o F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE
 o F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE

The database engine should be aware of the following sequence.
1. open
 -> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE);
2. writes
  : all the written data will be treated as atomic pages.
3. commit
 -> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE);
  : this flushes all the data blocks to the disk, which will be shown all or
  nothing by f2fs recovery procedure.
4. repeat to #2.

The IO pattens should be:

  ,- START_ATOMIC_WRITE                  ,- COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE
 CP | D D D D D D | FSYNC | D D D D | FSYNC ...

Block size in f2fs is 4096 bytes, so theoretically, f2fs can support 4096 bytes
sector device at maximum. But now f2fs only support 512 bytes size sector, so
block device such as zRAM which uses page cache as its block storage space will
not be mounted successfully as mismatch between sector size of zRAM and sector
size of f2fs supported.

In this patch we support large sector size in f2fs, so block device with sector
size of 512/1024/2048/4096 bytes can be supported in f2fs.

Jaegeuk Kim c1ce1b02bb f2fs: give an option to enable in-place-updates during fsync to users
If user wrote F2FS_IPU_FSYNC:4 in /sys/fs/f2fs/ipu_policy, f2fs_sync_file
only starts to try in-place-updates.
And, if the number of dirty pages is over /sys/fs/f2fs/min_fsync_blocks, it
keeps out-of-order manner. Otherwise, it triggers in-place-updates.

This may be used by storage showing very high random write performance.

For example, it can be used when,

Seq. writes (Data) + wait + Seq. writes (Node)

is pretty much slower than,

Rand. writes (Data)

1. don't write any checkpoint data to preserve the previous checkpoint
2. don't lose the cached dentry/node/meta pages

So, at first, this patch adds set_page_dirty in f2fs_write_end_io's failure.
Then, writing checkpoint/dentry/node blocks is not allowed.

Note that, for the data pages, we can't just throw away by redirtying them.
Otherwise, kworker can fall into infinite loop to flush them.

Merge tag 'for-f2fs-3.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "This patch-set includes the following major enhancement patches.
   - introduce large directory support
   - introduce f2fs_issue_flush to merge redundant flush commands
   - merge write IOs as much as possible aligned to the segment
   - add sysfs entries to tune the f2fs configuration
   - use radix_tree for the free_nid_list to reduce in-memory operations
   - remove costly bit operations in f2fs_find_entry
   - enhance the readahead flow for CP/NAT/SIT/SSA blocks

  The other bug fixes are as follows:
   - recover xattr node blocks correctly after sudden-power-cut
   - fix to calculate the maximum number of node ids
   - enhance to handle many error cases

  And, there are a bunch of cleanups"

Jaegeuk Kim 6b4afdd794 f2fs: introduce f2fs_issue_flush to avoid redundant flush issue
Some storage devices show relatively high latencies to complete cache_flush
commands, even though their normal IO speed is prettry much high. In such
the case, it needs to merge cache_flush commands as much as possible to avoid
issuing them redundantly.
So, this patch introduces a mount option, "-o flush_merge", to mitigate such
the overhead.

If this option is enabled by user, F2FS merges the cache_flush commands and then
issues just one cache_flush on behalf of them. Once the single command is
finished, F2FS sends a completion signal to all the pending threads.

Note that, this option can be used under a workload consisting of very intensive
concurrent fsync calls, while the storage handles cache_flush commands slowly.

Chao Yu df0f8dc0e1 f2fs: avoid unnecessary bio submit when wait page writeback
This patch introduce is_merged_page() to check whether current page is merged
in f2fs bio cache. When page is not in cache, we can avoid submitting bio cache,
resulting in having more chance to merge pages.

Jaegeuk Kim d928bfbfe7 f2fs: introduce fi->i_sem to protect fi's info
This patch introduces fi->i_sem to protect fi's info that includes xattr_ver,
pino, i_nlink.
This enables to remove i_mutex during f2fs_sync_file, resulting in performance
improvement when a number of fsync calls are triggered from many concurrent
threads.
