David Howells 1d1fe1ee02 iget: stop EXT4 from using iget() and read_inode()
Stop the EXT4 filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
ext4_read_inode() with ext4_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
ext4_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.

ext4_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.

Avantika Mathur fd2d42912f ext4: add ext4_group_t, and change all group variables to this type.
In many places variables for block group are of type int, which limits the
maximum number of block groups to 2^31.  Each block group can have up to
2^15 blocks, with a 4K block size,  and the max filesystem size is limited to
2^31 * (2^15 * 2^12) = 2^58  -- or 256 PB

This patch introduces a new type ext4_group_t, of type unsigned long, to
represent block group numbers in ext4.
All occurrences of block group variables are converted to type ext4_group_t.

Eric Sandeen 149041070d ext4: lighten up resize transaction requirements
When resizing online, setup_new_group_blocks attempts to reserve a
potentially very large transaction, depending on the current filesystem
geometry.  For some journal sizes, there may not be enough room for this
transaction, and the online resize will fail.

The patch below resizes & restarts the transaction as necessary while
setting up the new group, and should work with even the smallest journal.

Tested with something like:

[root@newbox ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=fsfile bs=1024 count=32768
[root@newbox ~]# mkfs.ext3 -b 1024 fsfile 16384
[root@newbox ~]# mount -o loop fsfile mnt/
[root@newbox ~]# resize2fs /dev/loop0
resize2fs 1.40.2 (12-Jul-2007)
Filesystem at /dev/loop0 is mounted on /root/mnt; on-line resizing required
old desc_blocks = 1, new_desc_blocks = 1
Performing an on-line resize of /dev/loop0 to 32768 (1k) blocks.
resize2fs: No space left on device While trying to add group #2
[root@newbox ~]# dmesg | tail -n 1
JBD: resize2fs wants too many credits (258 > 256)
[root@newbox ~]#

With the below change, it works.

Eric Sandeen 5b615287b3 ext4: fix setup_new_group_blocks locking
setup_new_group_blocks() manipulates the group descriptor block bh
under the block_bitmap bh's lock.  It shouldn't matter since nobody
but resize should be touching these blocks, but it's worth fixing up.

Andreas Dilger 717d50e497 Ext4: Uninitialized Block Groups
In pass1 of e2fsck, every inode table in the fileystem is scanned and checked,
regardless of whether it is in use.  This is this the most time consuming part
of the filesystem check.  The unintialized block group feature can greatly
reduce e2fsck time by eliminating checking of uninitialized inodes.

With this feature, there is a a high water mark of used inodes for each block
group.  Block and inode bitmaps can be uninitialized on disk via a flag in the
group descriptor to avoid reading or scanning them at e2fsck time.  A checksum
of each group descriptor is used to ensure that corruption in the group
descriptor's bit flags does not cause incorrect operation.

The feature is enabled through a mkfs option

	mke2fs /dev/ -O uninit_groups

A patch adding support for uninitialized block groups to e2fsprogs tools has
been posted to the linux-ext4 mailing list.

The patches have been stress tested with fsstress and fsx.  In performance
tests testing e2fsck time, we have seen that e2fsck time on ext3 grows
linearly with the total number of inodes in the filesytem.  In ext4 with the
uninitialized block groups feature, the e2fsck time is constant, based
solely on the number of used inodes rather than the total inode count.
Since typical ext4 filesystems only use 1-10% of their inodes, this feature can
greatly reduce e2fsck time for users.  With performance improvement of 2-20
times, depending on how full the filesystem is.

The attached graph shows the major improvements in e2fsck times in filesystems
with a large total inode count, but few inodes in use.

In each group descriptor if we have

EXT4_BG_INODE_UNINIT set in bg_flags:
        Inode table is not initialized/used in this group. So we can skip
        the consistency check during fsck.
EXT4_BG_BLOCK_UNINIT set in bg_flags:
        No block in the group is used. So we can skip the block bitmap
        verification for this group.

We also add two new fields to group descriptor as a part of
uninitialized group patch.

        __le16  bg_itable_unused;       /* Unused inodes count */
        __le16  bg_checksum;            /* crc16(sb_uuid+group+desc) */

bg_itable_unused:

If we have EXT4_BG_INODE_UNINIT not set in bg_flags
then bg_itable_unused will give the offset within
the inode table till the inodes are used. This can be
used by fsck to skip list of inodes that are marked unused.

bg_checksum:
Now that we depend on bg_flags and bg_itable_unused to determine
the block and inode usage, we need to make sure group descriptor
is not corrupt. We add checksum to group descriptor to
detect corruption. If the descriptor is found to be corrupt, we
mark all the blocks and inodes in the group used.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).
