Tao Ma 79f1ba4956 ext4: Checksum the block bitmap properly with bigalloc enabled
In mke2fs, we only checksum the whole bitmap block and it is right.
While in the kernel, we use EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP to indicate the
size of the checksumed bitmap which is wrong when we enable bigalloc.
The right size should be EXT4_CLUSTERS_PER_GROUP and this patch fixes
it.

Also as every caller of ext4_block_bitmap_csum_set and
ext4_block_bitmap_csum_verify pass in EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb)/8,
we'd better removes this parameter and sets it in the function itself.

Theodore Ts'o 7a4c5de27e ext4: don't call ext4_error while block group is locked
While in ext4_validate_block_bitmap(), if an block allocation bitmap
is found to be invalid, we call ext4_error() while the block group is
still locked.  This causes ext4_commit_super() to call a function
which might sleep while in an atomic context.

There's no need to keep the block group locked at this point, so hoist
the ext4_error() call up to ext4_validate_block_bitmap() and release
the block group spinlock before calling ext4_error().

Theodore Ts'o b0dd6b70f0 ext4: fix the free blocks calculation for ext3 file systems w/ uninit_bg
Ext3 filesystems that are converted to use as many ext4 file system
features as possible will enable uninit_bg to speed up e2fsck times.
These file systems will have a native ext3 layout of inode tables and
block allocation bitmaps (as opposed to ext4's flex_bg layout).
Unfortunately, in these cases, when first allocating a block in an
uninitialized block group, ext4 would incorrectly calculate the number
of free blocks in that block group, and then errorneously report that
the file system was corrupt:

EXT4-fs error (device vdd): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:741: group 30, 32254 clusters in bitmap, 32258 in gd

This problem can be reproduced via:

    mke2fs -q -t ext4 -O ^flex_bg /dev/vdd 5g
    mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /mnt
    fallocate -l 4600m /mnt/test

The problem was caused by a bone headed mistake in the check to see if a
particular metadata block was part of the block group.

Many thanks to Kees Cook for finding and bisecting the buggy commit
which introduced this bug (commit fd034a84e1, present since v3.2).

In ext4_read_{inode,block}_bitmap() we were setting bitmap_uptodate()
before submitting the buffer for read.  The is bad, since we check
bitmap_uptodate() without locking the buffer, and so if another
process is racing with us, it's possible that they will think the
bitmap is uptodate even though the read has not completed yet,
resulting in inodes and blocks potentially getting allocated more than
once if we get really unlucky.

function which enables the use of reserved blocks.  This will allow a

Because ext4_has_free_blocks is a low level function, the flag needs

ext4_ext_insert_extent
ext4_ext_create_new_leaf
ext4_ext_grow_indepth

Theodore Ts'o a0375156ca ext4: Clean up s_dirt handling
We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
is enabled.  In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted.  As a
result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
journal or by setting s_dirt.  There are a few exceptions, most
notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.

This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
with a journal.

Eric Sandeen 72b8ab9dde ext4: don't use quota reservation for speculative metadata
Because we can badly over-reserve metadata when we
calculate worst-case, it complicates things for quota, since
we must reserve and then claim later, retry on EDQUOT, etc.
Quota is also a generally smaller pool than fs free blocks,
so this over-reservation hurts more, and more often.

I'm of the opinion that it's not the worst thing to allow
metadata to push a user slightly over quota.  This simplifies
the code and avoids the false quota rejections that result
from worst-case speculation.

This patch stops the speculative quota-charging for
worst-case metadata requirements, and just charges quota
when the blocks are allocated at writeout.  It also is
able to remove the try-again loop on EDQUOT.

This patch has been tested indirectly by running the xfstests
suite with a hack to mount & enable quota prior to the test.

I also did a more specific test of fragmenting freespace
and then doing a large delalloc write under quota; quota
stopped me at the right amount of file IO, and then the
writeout generated enough metadata (due to the fragmentation)
that it put me slightly over quota, as expected.

We have sb_bgl_lock() and ext4_group_info.bb_state
bit spinlock to protech group information. The later is only
used within mballoc code. Consolidate them to use sb_bgl_lock().
This makes the mballoc.c code much simpler and also avoid
confusion with two locks protecting same info.

Theodore Ts'o 8df9675f8b ext4: Avoid races caused by on-line resizing and SMP memory reordering
Ext4's on-line resizing adds a new block group and then, only at the
last step adjusts s_groups_count.  However, it's possible on SMP
systems that another CPU could see the updated the s_group_count and
not see the newly initialized data structures for the just-added block
group.  For this reason, it's important to insert a SMP read barrier
after reading s_groups_count and before reading any (for example) the
new block group descriptors allowed by the increased value of
s_groups_count.

Unfortunately, we rather blatently violate this locking protocol
documented in fs/ext4/resize.c.  Fortunately, (1) on-line resizes
happen relatively rarely, and (2) it seems rare that the filesystem
code will immediately try to use just-added block group before any
memory ordering issues resolve themselves.  So apparently problems
here are relatively hard to hit, since ext3 has been vulnerable to the
same issue for years with no one apparently complaining.

Theodore Ts'o 9f24e4208f ext4: Use atomic_t's in struct flex_groups
Reduce pressure on the sb_bgl_lock family of locks by using atomic_t's

Theodore Ts'o e187c6588d ext4: remove call to ext4_group_desc() in ext4_group_used_meta_blocks()
The static function ext4_group_used_meta_blocks() only has one caller,
who already has access to the block group's group descriptor.  So it's
better to have ext4_init_block_bitmap() pass the group descriptor to
ext4_group_used_meta_blocks(), so it doesn't need to call
ext4_group_desc().  Previously this function did not check if
ext4_group_desc() returned NULL due to an error, potentially causing a
kernel OOPS report.  This avoids the issue entirely.

Eric Sandeen 8f64b32eb7 ext4: don't call jbd2_journal_force_commit_nested without journal
Running without a journal, I oopsed when I ran out of space,
because we called jbd2_journal_force_commit_nested() from
ext4_should_retry_alloc() without a journal.

This should take care of it, I think.

Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo 9fd9784c91 ext4: Fix building with EXT4FS_DEBUG
When bg_free_blocks_count was renamed to bg_free_blocks_count_lo in
560671a0, its uses under EXT4FS_DEBUG were not changed to the helper
ext4_free_blks_count.

Another commit, 498e5f24, also did not change everything needed under
EXT4FS_DEBUG, thus making it spill some warnings related to printing
format.

This commit fixes both issues and makes ext4 build again when
EXT4FS_DEBUG is enabled.

Aneesh Kumar K.V 2ccb5fb9f1 ext4: Use new buffer_head flag to check uninit group bitmaps initialization
For uninit block group, the on-disk bitmap is not initialized. That
implies we cannot depend on the uptodate flag on the bitmap
buffer_head to find bitmap validity.  Use a new buffer_head flag which
would be set after we properly initialize the bitmap.  This also
prevents (re-)initializing the uninit group bitmap every time we call 
ext4_read_block_bitmap().
