Lachlan McIlroy 541d7d3c4b [XFS] kill unnessecary ioops indirection
Currently there is an indirection called ioops in the XFS data I/O path.
Various functions are called by functions pointers, but there is no
coherence in what this is for, and of course for XFS itself it's entirely
unused. This patch removes it instead and significantly reduces source and
binary size of XFS while making maintaince easier.

Christoph Hellwig 7642861b7e [XFS] kill BMAPI_UNWRITTEN
There is no reason to go through xfs_iomap for the BMAPI_UNWRITTEN because
it has nothing in common with the other cases. Instead check for the
shutdown filesystem in xfs_end_bio_unwritten and perform a direct call to
xfs_iomap_write_unwritten (which should be renamed to something more
sensible one day)

Christoph Hellwig 6214ed4461 [XFS] kill BMAPI_DEVICE
There is no reason to go into the iomap machinery just to get the right
block device for an inode. Instead look at the realtime flag in the inode
and grab the right device from the mount structure.

I created a new helper, xfs_find_bdev_for_inode instead of opencoding it
because I plan to use it in other places in the future.

Lachlan McIlroy ba87ea699e [XFS] Fix to prevent the notorious 'NULL files' problem after a crash.
The problem that has been addressed is that of synchronising updates of
the file size with writes that extend a file. Without the fix the update
of a file's size, as a result of a write beyond eof, is independent of
when the cached data is flushed to disk. Often the file size update would
be written to the filesystem log before the data is flushed to disk. When
a system crashes between these two events and the filesystem log is
replayed on mount the file's size will be set but since the contents never
made it to disk the file is full of holes. If some of the cached data was
flushed to disk then it may just be a section of the file at the end that
has holes.

There are existing fixes to help alleviate this problem, particularly in
the case where a file has been truncated, that force cached data to be
flushed to disk when the file is closed. If the system crashes while the
file(s) are still open then this flushing will never occur.

The fix that we have implemented is to introduce a second file size,
called the in-memory file size, that represents the current file size as
viewed by the user. The existing file size, called the on-disk file size,
is the one that get's written to the filesystem log and we only update it
when it is safe to do so. When we write to a file beyond eof we only
update the in- memory file size in the write operation. Later when the I/O
operation, that flushes the cached data to disk completes, an I/O
completion routine will update the on-disk file size. The on-disk file
size will be updated to the maximum offset of the I/O or to the value of
the in-memory file size if the I/O includes eof.

Nathan Scott 24e17b5fb9 [XFS] Use the right offset when ensuring a delayed allocate conversion has covered the offset originally requested. Can cause data corruption when multiple processes are performing writeout on different areas of the same file. Quite difficult to hit though.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
