Preallocation and hole punch transactions are currently synchronous and this is causing performance problems in some cases. The transactions don't need to be synchronous as we don't need to guarantee the preallocation is persistent on disk until a fdatasync, fsync, sync operation occurs. If the file is opened O_SYNC or O_DATASYNC, only then should the transaction be issued synchronously.

The remaining functionality in debug.[ch] is effectively just assert handling, conditional debug definitions and hex dumping. The hex dumping and assert function can be moved into the new printk module, while the rest can be moved into top-level header files.

In certain cases of inode corruption, the xfs_fs_repair_cmn_err() macro is used to output an extra message in the corruption report. That extra message is "unmount and run xfs_repair", which really applies to any corruption report. Each case that this macro is called (except one) a following call to xfs_corruption_error() is made to optionally dump more information about the error. Hence, move the output of "run xfs_repair" to xfs_corruption_error() so that it is output on all corruption reports. Also, convert the callers of the repair macro that don't call xfs_corruption_error() to call it, hence provide consiѕtent error reporting for all cases where xfs_fs_repair_cmn_err() used to be called.

Commit 493f3358 added this call to xfs_fs_geometry() in order to avoid passing kernel stack data back to user space: + memset(geo, 0, sizeof(*geo)); Unfortunately, one of the callers of that function passes the address of a smaller data type, cast to fit the type that xfs_fs_geometry() requires. As a result, this can happen: Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: f87aca93 Pid: 262, comm: xfs_fsr Not tainted 2.6.38-rc6-493f3358+ #1 Call Trace: [<c12991ac>] ? panic+0x50/0x150 [<c102ed71>] ? __stack_chk_fail+0x10/0x18 [<f87aca93>] ? xfs_ioc_fsgeometry_v1+0x56/0x5d [xfs] Fix this by fixing that one caller to pass the right type and then copy out the subset it is interested in.

Currently we return iodes from xfs_ialloc with just a single reference held. But we need two references, as one is dropped during transaction commit and the second needs to be transfered to the VFS. Change xfs_ialloc to use xfs_iget plus xfs_trans_ijoin_ref to grab two references to the inode, and remove the now superflous IHOLD calls from all callers. This also greatly simplifies the error handling in xfs_create and also allow to remove xfs_trans_iget as no other callers are left.

Right now we, are relying on the fact that when we attempt to actually do the discard, blkdev_issue_discar() returns -EOPNOTSUPP and the user is informed that the device does not support discard. However, in the case where the we do not hit any suitable free extent to trim in FITRIM code, it will finish without any error. This is very confusing, because it seems that FITRIM was successful even though the device does not actually supports discard.

When filling in the middle of a previous delayed allocation in xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real, set br_startblock of the new delay extent to the right to nullstartblock instead of 0 before inserting the extent into the ifork (xfs_iext_insert), rather than setting br_startblock afterward. Adding the extent into the ifork with br_startblock=0 can lead to the extent being copied into the btree by xfs_bmap_extent_to_btree if we happen to convert from extents format to btree format before updating br_startblock with the correct value. The unexpected addition of this delay extent to the btree can cause subsequent XFS_WANT_CORRUPTED_GOTO filesystem shutdown in several xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real cases where we are converting a delay extent to real and unexpectedly find an extent already inserted. For example: 911 case BMAP_LEFT_FILLING: 912 /* 913 * Filling in the first part of a previous delayed allocation. 914 * The left neighbor is not contiguous. 915 */ 916 trace_xfs_bmap_pre_update(ip, idx, state, _THIS_IP_); 917 xfs_bmbt_set_startoff(ep, new_endoff); 918 temp = PREV.br_blockcount - new->br_blockcount; 919 xfs_bmbt_set_blockcount(ep, temp); 920 xfs_iext_insert(ip, idx, 1, new, state); 921 ip->i_df.if_lastex = idx; 922 ip->i_d.di_nextents++; 923 if (cur == NULL) 924 rval = XFS_ILOG_CORE | XFS_ILOG_DEXT; 925 else { 926 rval = XFS_ILOG_CORE; 927 if ((error = xfs_bmbt_lookup_eq(cur, new->br_startoff, 928 new->br_startblock, new->br_blockcount, 929 &i))) 930 goto done; 931 XFS_WANT_CORRUPTED_GOTO(i == 0, done); With the bogus extent in the btree we shutdown the filesystem at 931. The conversion from extents to btree format happens when the number of extents in the inode increases above ip->i_df.if_ext_max. xfs_bmap_extent_to_btree copies extents from the ifork into the btree, ignoring all delalloc extents which are denoted by br_startblock having some value of nullstartblock.

Commit 368e1361 ("xfs: remove duplicate code from dquot reclaim") fails to unlock the dquot freelist when the number of loop restarts is exceeded in xfs_qm_dqreclaim_one(). This causes hangs in memory reclaim. Rework the loop control logic into an unwind stack that all the different cases jump into. This means there is only one set of code that processes the loop exit criteria, and simplifies the unlocking of all the items from different points in the loop. It also fixes a double increment of the restart counter from the qi_dqlist_lock case.

The extent size hint can be set to larger than an AG. This means that the alignment process can push the range to be allocated outside the bounds of the AG, resulting in assert failures or corrupted bmbt records. Similarly, if the extsize is larger than the maximum extent size supported, the alignment process will produce extents that are too large to fit into the bmbt records, resulting in a different type of assert/corruption failure. Fix this by limiting extsize at the time іt is set firstly to be less than MAXEXTLEN, then to be a maximum of half the size of the AGs in the filesystem for non-realtime inodes. Realtime inodes do not allocate out of AGs, so don't have to be restricted by the size of AGs.

When doing delayed allocation, if the allocation size is for a maximally sized extent, extent size alignment can push it over this limit. This results in an assert failure in xfs_bmbt_set_allf() as the extent length is too large to find in the extent record. Fix this by ensuring that we allow for space that extent size alignment requires (up to 2 * (extsize -1) blocks as we have to handle both head and tail alignment) when limiting the maximum size of the extent.

Delayed allocation extents can be larger than AGs, so when trying to convert a large range we may scan every AG inside xfs_bmap_alloc_nullfb() trying to find an AG with a size larger than an AG. We should stop when we find the first AG with a maximum possible allocation size. This causes excessive CPU usage when there are lots of AGs. The same problem occurs when doing preallocation of a range larger than an AG. Fix the problem by limiting real allocation lengths to the maximum that an AG can support. This means if we have empty AGs, we'll stop the search at the first of them. If there are no empty AGs, we'll still scan them all, but that is a different problem....

rounddown_power_of_2() returns an undefined result when passed a value of zero. The specualtive delayed allocation code is doing this when the inode is zero length. Hence occasionally the preallocation is much, much larger than is necessary (e.g. 8GB for a 270 _byte_ file). Ensure we don't even pass a zero value to this function so the result of preallocation is always the desired size.

This means that the EFI item is never freed if it was in the push being cancelled. The problem is specific to delayed logging, but has uncovered a couple of problems with the handling of IOP_UNPIN(remove). Firstly, we cannot safely call xfs_trans_del_item() from IOP_UNPIN() in the CIL commit failure path or the iclog write failure path because for delayed loging we have no transaction context. Hence we must only call xfs_trans_del_item() if the log item being unpinned has an active log item descriptor. Secondly, xfs_trans_uncommit() does not handle log item descriptor freeing during the traversal of log items on a transaction. It can reference a freed log item descriptor when unpinning an EFI item. Hence it needs to use a safe list traversal method to allow items to be removed from the transaction during IOP_UNPIN().
