Tao Ma c1e8d35ef5 ocfs2: Remove EXIT from masklog.
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.
All those mlog(0,...) will be replaced with trace events later.

Mark Fasheh e49e27674d ocfs2: allow return of new inode block location before allocation of the inode
This allows code which needs to know the eventual block number of an inode
but can't allocate it yet due to transaction or lock ordering. For example,
ocfs2_create_inode_in_orphan() currently gives a junk blkno for preparation
of the orphan dir because it can't yet know where the actual inode is placed
- that code is actually in ocfs2_mknod_locked. This is a problem when the
orphan dirs are indexed as the junk inode number will create an index entry
which goes unused (and fails the later removal from the orphan dir).  Now
with these interfaces, ocfs2_create_inode_in_orphan() can run the block
group search (and get back the inode block number) *before* any actual
allocation occurs.

ocfs2_journal_dirty() has been faithfully returning the status since the

assumes they are needed.

Finally, ocfs2_journal_dirty() is made a void function.  All error
checking is removed from other files.  We'll BUG_ON() the status of

won't.

wengang wang 6ca497a83e ocfs2: fix rare stale inode errors when exporting via nfs
For nfs exporting, ocfs2_get_dentry() returns the dentry for fh.
ocfs2_get_dentry() may read from disk when the inode is not in memory,
without any cross cluster lock. this leads to the file system loading a
stale inode.

This patch fixes above problem.

Solution is that in case of inode is not in memory, we get the cluster
lock(PR) of alloc inode where the inode in question is allocated from (this
causes node on which deletion is done sync the alloc inode) before reading
out the inode itsself. then we check the bitmap in the group (the inode in
question allcated from) to see if the bit is clear. if it's clear then it's
stale. if the bit is set, we then check generation as the existing code
does.

We have to read out the inode in question from disk first to know its alloc
slot and allot bit. And if its not stale we read it out using ocfs2_iget().
The second read should then be from cache.

And also we have to add a per superblock nfs_sync_lock to cover the lock for
alloc inode and that for inode in question. this is because ocfs2_get_dentry()
and ocfs2_delete_inode() lock on them in reverse order. nfs_sync_lock is locked
in EX mode in ocfs2_get_dentry() and in PR mode in ocfs2_delete_inode(). so
that mutliple ocfs2_delete_inode() can run concurrently in normal case.

Tao Ma 138211515c ocfs2: Optimize inode allocation by remembering last group
In ocfs2, the inode block search looks for the "emptiest" inode
group to allocate from. So if an inode alloc file has many equally
(or almost equally) empty groups, new inodes will tend to get
spread out amongst them, which in turn can put them all over the
disk. This is undesirable because directory operations on conceptually
"nearby" inodes force a large number of seeks.

So we add ip_last_used_group in core directory inodes which records
the last used allocation group. Another field named ip_last_used_slot
is also added in case inode stealing happens. When claiming new inode,
we passed in directory's inode so that the allocation can use this
information.

Joel Becker 13723d00e3 ocfs2: Use metadata-specific ocfs2_journal_access_*() functions.
The per-metadata-type ocfs2_journal_access_*() functions hook up jbd2
commit triggers and allow us to compute metadata ecc right before the

The ocfs2_extent_tree and ocfs2_path abstractions in alloc.c both hide
the type of block at their root.  Before, it didn't matter, but now the
root block must use the appropriate ocfs2_journal_access_*() function.
To keep this abstract, the structures now have a pointer to the matching
journal_access function and a wrapper call to call it.

A few places use naked ocfs2_write_block() calls instead of adding the
blocks to the journal.  We make sure to calculate their checksum and ecc
before the write.

Since we pass around the journal_access functions.  Let's typedef them
in ocfs2.h.

Joel Becker d6b32bbb3e ocfs2: block read meta ecc.
Add block check calls to the read_block validate functions.  This is the
almost all of the read-side checking of metaecc.  xattr buckets are not checked
yet.   Writes are also unchecked, and so a read-write mount will quickly fail.

Joel Becker 970e4936d7 ocfs2: Validate metadata only when it's read from disk.
Add an optional validation hook to ocfs2_read_blocks().  Now the
validation function is only called when a block was actually read off of
disk.  It is not called when the buffer was in cache.

We add a buffer state bit BH_NeedsValidate to flag these buffers.  It
must always be one higher than the last JBD2 buffer state bit.

The dinode, dirblock, extent_block, and xattr_block validators are
lifted to this scheme directly.  The group_descriptor validator needs to
be split into two pieces.  The first part only needs the gd buffer and
is passed to ocfs2_read_block().  The second part requires the dinode as
well, and is called every time.  It's only 3 compares, so it's tiny.
This also allows us to clean up the non-fatal gd check used by resize.c.
It now has no magic argument.

Joel Becker 4203530613 ocfs2: Morph the haphazard OCFS2_IS_VALID_GROUP_DESC() checks.
Random places in the code would check a group descriptor bh to see if it
was valid. The previous commit unified descriptor block reads,
validating all block reads in the same place.  Thus, these checks are no
longer necessary.  Rather than eliminate them, however, we change them
to BUG_ON() checks.  This ensures the assumptions remain true.  All of
the code paths to these checks have been audited to ensure they come
from a validated descriptor read.
