The pointer to the extent buffer for the root of each tree is protected by a spinlock so that we can safely read the pointer and take a reference on the extent buffer. But now that the extent buffers are freed via RCU, we can safely use rcu_read_lock instead. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

I noticed that dio_end_io calls the appropriate endio function with an error, but the endio functions don't actually do anything with that error, they assume that if there was an error then the bio will not be uptodate. So if we had checksum failures we would never pass back EIO. So if there is an error in our endio functions make sure to clear the uptodate flag on the bio.

When doing direct writes we store the checksums in the ordered sum stuff in the ordered extent for writing them when the write completes, so we don't even use the dip->csums array. So if we're writing, don't bother allocating dip->csums since we won't use it anyway. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>

This patch makes the free space cluster refilling code a little easier to understand, and fixes some things with the bitmap part of it. Currently we either want to refill a cluster with 1) All normal extent entries (those without bitmaps) 2) A bitmap entry with enough space The current code has this ugly jump around logic that will first try and fill up the cluster with extent entries and then if it can't do that it will try and find a bitmap to use. So instead split this out into two functions, one that tries to find only normal entries, and one that tries to find bitmaps. This also fixes a suboptimal thing we would do with bitmaps. If we used a bitmap we would just tell the cluster that we were pointing at a bitmap and it would do the tree search in the block group for that entry every time we tried to make an allocation. Instead of doing that now we just add it to the clusters group. I tested this with my ENOSPC tests and xfstests and it survived. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>

We have been creating bitmaps for small extents unconditionally forever. This was great when testing to make sure the bitmap stuff was working, but is overkill normally. So instead of always adding small chunks of free space to bitmaps, only start doing it if we go past half of our extent threshold. This will keeps us from creating a bitmap for just one small free extent at the front of the block group, and will make the allocator a little faster as a result. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>

We do all this fun stuff with min_bytes, but either don't use it in the case of just normal extents, or use it completely wrong in the case of bitmaps. So fix this for both cases 1) In the extent case, stop looking for space with window_free >= min_bytes instead of bytes + empty_size. 2) In the bitmap case, we were looking for streches of free space that was at least min_bytes in size, which was not right at all. So instead search for stretches of free space that are at least bytes in size (this will make a difference when we have > page size blocks) and then only search for min_bytes amount of free space.

Currently if we have corrupted items things will blow up in spectacular ways. So as we read in blocks and they are leaves, check the entire leaf to make sure all of the items are correct and point to valid parts in the leaf for the item data the are responsible for. If the item is corrupt we will kick back EIO and not read any of the copies since they are likely to not be correct either. This will catch generic corruptions, it will be up to the individual callers of btrfs_search_slot to make sure their items are right. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>

This fixes a problem where if truncate fails the inode will still be on the in memory orphan list. This is will make us complain when the inode gets destroyed because it's still on the orphan list.

If we cannot truncate an inode for some reason we will never delete the orphan item associated with that inode, which means that we will loop forever in btrfs_orphan_cleanup.

->truncate() is going away, instead all of the work needs to be done in ->setattr(). So this converts us over to do this. It's fairly straightforward, just get rid of our .truncate inode operation and call btrfs_truncate() directly from btrfs_setsize. This works out better for us since truncate can technically return ENOSPC, and before we had no way of letting anybody know. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>

We track delayed allocation per inodes via 2 counters, one is outstanding_extents and reserved_extents. Outstanding_extents is already an atomic_t, but reserved_extents is not and is protected by a spinlock. So convert this to an atomic_t and instead of using a spinlock, use atomic_cmpxchg when releasing delalloc bytes. This makes our inode 72 bytes smaller, and reduces locking overhead (albiet it was minimal to begin with). Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>

Our aio_write function is huge and kind of hard to follow at times. So this patch fixes this by breaking out the buffered and direct write paths out into seperate functions so it's a little clearer what's going on.

oom_kill_process() starts with victim_points == 0. This means that (most likely) any child has more points and can be killed erroneously. Also, "children has a different mm" doesn't match the reality, we should check child->mm != t->mm. This check is not exactly correct if t->mm == NULL but this doesn't really matter, oom_kill_task() will kill them anyway. Note: "Kill all processes sharing p->mm" in oom_kill_task() is wrong too.

Since commit 32fd6901 (MIPS: Alchemy: get rid of common/reset.c) Alchemy-based boards use their own reset function. For MTX-1 and XXS1500, the reset function pokes at the BCSR.SYSTEM_RESET register, but this does not work. According to Bruno Randolf, this was not tested when written. Previously, the generic au1000_restart() routine called the board specific reset function, which for MTX-1 and XXS1500 did not work, but finally made a jump to the reset vector, which really triggers a system restart. Fix reboot for both targets by jumping to the reset vector.

To avoid forking usermode thread when creating an idle task, move fork_idle to a work queue. If kernel starts with maxcpus= option which does not bring all available cpus online at boot time, idle tasks for offline cpus are not created. If later offline cpus are hotplugged through sysfs, __cpu_up is called in the context of the user task, and fork_idle copies its non-zero mm pointer. This causes BUG() in per_cpu_trap_init. This also avoids issues with resource limits of the CPU writing to sysfs, containers, maybe others.

Leverage the commit for ARM by Will Deacon: - 446a5a8b ARM: 6205/1: perf: ensure counter delta is treated as unsigned Hardware performance counters on ARM are 32-bits wide but atomic64_t variables are used to represent counter data in the hw_perf_event structure. The armpmu_event_update function right-shifts a signed 64-bit delta variable and adds the result to the event count. This can lead to shifting in sign-bits if the MSB of the 32-bit counter value is set. This results in perf output such as: Performance counter stats for 'sleep 20': 18446744073460670464 cycles <-- 0xFFFFFFFFF12A6000 7783773 instructions # 0.000 IPC 465 context-switches 161 page-faults 1172393 branches 20.154242147 seconds time elapsed This patch ensures that the delta value is treated as unsigned so that the right shift sets the upper bits to zero.

The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with the generic stopped state. This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain code paths (like IRQ handlers). It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters). The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on how the architecture implemented the throttled state: 1) We disable the counter: a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state 2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events For MIPSXX, the stopped state is implemented in the way of 1.b as above. - 33696fc0 perf: Per PMU disable Changes perf_disable() into perf_pmu_disable(). - 24cd7f54 perf: Reduce perf_disable() usage Since the current perf_disable() usage is only an optimization, remove it for now.

This is the MIPS part of the following commit by Peter Zijlstra: - e360adbe irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work. For MIPSXX, we need to call irq_work_run() at the tail of the perf IRQ handler as described above.
