Chao Yu 4bf08ff6f9 f2fs: remove unnecessary TestClearPageError when wait pages writeback
In wait_on_node_pages_writeback we will test and clear error flag for all
pages in radix tree, but not necessary.
So we only do this for pages belong to the specified inode.

Jaegeuk Kim cfe58f9dcd f2fs: avoid to wait all the node blocks during fsync
Previously, f2fs_sync_file() waits for all the node blocks to be written.
But, we don't need to do that, but wait only the inode-related node blocks.

This patch adds wait_on_node_pages_writeback() in which waits inode-related
node blocks that are on writeback.

Jaegeuk Kim 81eb8d6e28 f2fs: reclaim prefree segments periodically
Previously, f2fs postpones reclaiming prefree segments into free segments
as much as possible.
However, if user writes and deletes a bunch of data without any sync or fsync
calls, some flash storages can suffer from garbage collections.

So, this patch adds the reclaiming codes to f2fs_write_node_pages and background
GC thread.

If there are a lot of prefree segments, let's do checkpoint so that f2fs
submits discard commands for the prefree regions to the flash storage.

Jaegeuk Kim 423e95ccbe f2fs: merge more bios of node block writes
Previously, we experience bio traces as follows when running simple sequential
write test.

 f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500104928, size = 4K
 f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499922208, size = 368K
 f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499914752, size = 140K

 -> total 512K

The first one is to write an indirect node block, and the others are to write
direct node blocks.

The reason why there are two separate bios for direct node blocks is:
0. initial state
------------------    ------------------
|                |    |xxxxxxxx        |
------------------    ------------------

1. write 368K
------------------    ------------------
|                |    |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW|
------------------    ------------------

2. write 140K
------------------    ------------------
|WWWWWWW         |    |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW|
------------------    ------------------

This is because f2fs_write_node_pages tries to write just 512K totally, so that
we can lose the chance to merge more bios nicely.

After this patch is applied, we can get the following bio traces.

  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500103168, size = 8K
  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500111368, size = 4K
  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500107272, size = 512K
  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500108296, size = 512K
  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500109320, size = 500K

And finally, we can improve the sequential write performance,
    from 458.775 MB/s to 479.945 MB/s on SSD.

Jaegeuk Kim 65985d935d f2fs: support the inline xattrs
0. modified inode structure
--------------------------------------
metadata (e.g., i_mtime, i_ctime, etc)
--------------------------------------
direct pointers [0 ~ 873]

inline xattrs (200 bytes by default)

indirect pointers [0 ~ 4]
--------------------------------------
node footer
--------------------------------------

1. setxattr flow
 - read_all_xattrs copies all the xattrs from inline and xattr node block.
 - handle xattr entries
 - write_all_xattrs copies modified xattrs into inline and xattr node block.

2. getxattr flow
 - read_all_xattrs copies all the xattrs from inline and xattr node block.
 - check target entries

3. Usage
 # mount -t f2fs -o inline_xattr $DEV $MNT

 Once mounted with the inline_xattr option, f2fs marks all the newly created
 files to reserve an amount of inline xattr space explicitly inside the inode
 block. Without the mount option, f2fs will not touch any existing files and
 newly created files as well.

Jaegeuk Kim 479bd73ac4 f2fs: should cover i_xattr_nid with its xattr node page lock
Previously, f2fs_setxattr assigns i_xattr_nid in the inode page inconsistently.

The scenario is:

= Thread 1 =         = Thread 2 =     = fi->i_xattr_nid =  = on-disk nid =

f2fs_setxattr                                   0                 0
  new_node_page                                 X                 0
                   sync_inode_page              X                 X
                   checkpoint                   X                 X -.
    grab_cache_page                             X                 X  |
--> allocate a new xattr node block or -ENOSPC      <----------------'

At this moment, the checkpoint stores inconsistent data where the inode has
i_xattr_nid but actual xattr node block is not allocated yet.

So, we should assign the real i_xattr_nid only after its xattr node block is
allocated.

Jaegeuk Kim 44a83ff6a8 f2fs: update inode page after creation
I found a bug when testing power-off-recovery as follows.

[Bug Scenario]
1. create a file
2. fsync the file
3. reboot w/o any sync
4. try to recover the file
 - found its fsync mark
 - found its dentry mark
   : try to recover its dentry
    - get its file name
    - get its parent inode number
     : here we got zero value

The reason why we get the wrong parent inode number is that we didn't
synchronize the inode page with its newly created inode information perfectly.

Especially, previous f2fs stores fi->i_pino and writes it to the cached
node page in a wrong order, which incurs the zero-valued i_pino during the
recovery.

So, this patch modifies the creation flow to fix the synchronization order of
inode page with its inode.

Jaegeuk Kim 65e5cd0a15 f2fs: fix inconsistency of block count during recovery
Currently f2fs recovers the dentry of fsynced files.
When power-off-recovery is conducted, this newly recovered inode should increase
node block count as well as inode block count.

This patch resolves this inconsistency that results in:

1. create a file
2. write data
3. fsync
4. reboot without sync
5. mount and recover the file
6. node block count is 1 and inode block count is 2
 : fall into the inconsistent state
7. unlink the file
 : trigger the following BUG_ON

Lukas Czerner d47992f86b mm: change invalidatepage prototype to accept length
Currently there is no way to truncate partial page where the end
truncate point is not at the end of the page. This is because it was not
needed and the functionality was enough for file system truncate
operation to work properly. However more file systems now support punch
hole feature and it can benefit from mm supporting truncating page just
up to the certain point.

Specifically, with this functionality truncate_inode_pages_range() can
be changed so it supports truncating partial page at the end of the
range (currently it will BUG_ON() if 'end' is not at the end of the
page).

This commit changes the invalidatepage() address space operation
prototype to accept range to be invalidated and update all the instances
for it.

We also change the block_invalidatepage() in the same way and actually
make a use of the new length argument implementing range invalidation.

Actual file system implementations will follow except the file systems
where the changes are really simple and should not change the behaviour
in any way .Implementation for truncate_page_range() which will be able
to accept page unaligned ranges will follow as well.

Jaegeuk Kim 59bbd474ab f2fs: cover free_nid management with spin_lock
After build_free_nids() searches free nid candidates from nat pages and
current journal blocks, it checks all the candidates if they are allocated
so that the nat cache has its nid with an allocated block address.

In this procedure, previously we used
    list_for_each_entry_safe(fnid, next_fnid, &nm_i->free_nid_list, list).
But, this is not covered by free_nid_list_lock, resulting in null pointer bug.

This patch moves this checking routine inside add_free_nid() in order not to use
the spin_lock.

Jaegeuk Kim ac5d156c78 f2fs: modify the number of issued pages to merge IOs
When testing f2fs on an SSD, I found some 128 page IOs followed by 1 page IO
were issued by f2fs_write_node_pages.
This means that there were some mishandling flows which degrades performance.

Previous f2fs_write_node_pages determines the number of pages to be written,
nr_to_write, as follows.

1. The bio_get_nr_vecs returns 129 pages.
2. The bio_alloc makes a room for 128 pages.
3. The initial 128 pages go into one bio.
4. The existing bio is submitted, and a new bio is prepared for the last 1 page.
5. Finally, sync_node_pages submits the last 1 page bio.

The problem is from the use of bio_get_nr_vecs, so this patch replace it
with max_hw_blocks using queue_max_sectors.

However, this is inconsistent with the actual threshold check as

In order to avoid build_free_nid lock contention, let's change the order of
function calls as follows.

At first, check whether there is enough free nids.
 - If available, just get a free nid with spin_lock without any overhead.
 - Otherwise, conduct build_free_nids.
  : scan nat pages, journal nat entries, and nat cache entries.

We should consider carefullly not to serve free nids intermediately made by
build_free_nids.
We can get stable free nids only after build_free_nids is done.

Jaegeuk Kim c718379b6b f2fs: give a chance to merge IOs by IO scheduler
Previously, background GC submits many 4KB read requests to load victim blocks
and/or its (i)node blocks.

...
f2fs_gc : f2fs_readpage: ino = 1, page_index = 0xb61, blkaddr = 0x3b964ed
f2fs_gc : block_rq_complete: 8,16 R () 499854968 + 8 [0]

f2fs_gc : block_rq_complete: 8,16 R () 499854984 + 8 [0]
...

However, by the fact that many IOs are sequential, we can give a chance to merge
the IOs by IO scheduler.
In order to do that, let's use blk_plug.

...
f2fs_gc : f2fs_iget: ino = 143
f2fs_gc : f2fs_readpage: ino = 143, page_index = 0x1c6, blkaddr = 0x2e6ee
f2fs_gc : f2fs_iget: ino = 143
f2fs_gc : f2fs_readpage: ino = 143, page_index = 0x1c7, blkaddr = 0x2e6ef

Note that this issue should be addressed in checkpoint, and some readahead
flows too.

Jaegeuk Kim 399368372e f2fs: introduce a new global lock scheme
In the previous version, f2fs uses global locks according to the usage types,
such as directory operations, block allocation, block write, and so on.

Reference the following lock types in f2fs.h.
enum lock_type {
	RENAME,		/* for renaming operations */
	DENTRY_OPS,	/* for directory operations */
	DATA_WRITE,	/* for data write */
	DATA_NEW,	/* for data allocation */
	DATA_TRUNC,	/* for data truncate */
	NODE_NEW,	/* for node allocation */
	NODE_TRUNC,	/* for node truncate */
	NODE_WRITE,	/* for node write */
	NR_LOCK_TYPE,
};

In that case, we lose the performance under the multi-threading environment,
since every types of operations must be conducted one at a time.

In order to address the problem, let's share the locks globally with a mutex
array regardless of any types.
So, let users grab a mutex and perform their jobs in parallel as much as
possbile.

For this, I propose a new global lock scheme as follows.

0. Data structure
 - f2fs_sb_info -> mutex_lock[NR_GLOBAL_LOCKS]
 - f2fs_sb_info -> node_write

1. mutex_lock_op(sbi)
 - try to get an avaiable lock from the array.
 - returns the index of the gottern lock variable.

2. mutex_unlock_op(sbi, index of the lock)
 - unlock the given index of the lock.

3. mutex_lock_all(sbi)
 - grab all the locks in the array before the checkpoint.

4. mutex_unlock_all(sbi)
 - release all the locks in the array after checkpoint.

5. block_operations()
 - call mutex_lock_all()
 - sync_dirty_dir_inodes()
 - grab node_write
 - sync_node_pages()

Note that,
 the pairs of mutex_lock_op()/mutex_unlock_op() and
 mutex_lock_all()/mutex_unlock_all() should be used together.

In get_node_page, we do not need to call lock_page all the time.

If the node page is cached as uptodate,

1. grab_cache_page locks the page,
2. read_node_page unlocks the page, and
3. lock_page is called for further process.

Let's avoid this.

Jaegeuk Kim fa37241743 f2fs: remain nat cache entries for further free nid allocation
In the checkpoint flow, the f2fs investigates the total nat cache entries.
Previously, if an entry has NULL_ADDR, f2fs drops the entry and adds the
obsolete nid to the free nid list.
However, this free nid will be reused sooner, resulting in its nat entry miss.
In order to avoid this, we don't need to drop the nat cache entry at this moment.

Jaegeuk Kim 04431c44e5 f2fs: fix not to allocate max_nid
The build_free_nid should not add free nids over nm_i->max_nid.
But, there was a hole that invalid free nid was added by the following scenario.

Let's suppose nm_i->max_nid = 150 and the last NAT page has 100 ~ 200 nids.

build_free_nids
  - get_current_nat_page loads the last NAT page
  - scan_nat_page can add 100 ~ 200 nids
    -> Bug here!
So, when scanning an NAT page, we should check each candidate whether it is
over max_nid or not.

Jaegeuk Kim 48cb76c7be f2fs: scan next nat page to reuse free nids in there
When we build new free nids, let's scan the just next NAT page instead of
skipping a couple of previously scanned pages in order to reuse free nids in
there.
Otherwise, we can use too much wide range of nids even though several nids were
deallocated, and also their node pages can be cached in the node_inode's address
space.
This means that we can retain lots of clean pages in the main memory, which
induces mm's reclaiming overhead.

Jaegeuk Kim 393ff91f57 f2fs: reduce unncessary locking pages during read
This patch reduces redundant locking and unlocking pages during read operations.
In f2fs_readpage, let's use wait_on_page_locked() instead of lock_page.
And then, when we need to modify any data finally, let's lock the page so that
we can avoid lock contention.

[readpage rule]
- The f2fs_readpage returns unlocked page, or released page too in error cases.
- Its caller should handle read error, -EIO, after locking the page, which
  indicates read completion.
- Its caller should check PageUptodate after grab_cache_page.
