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.

To simplify metadata tracking for delalloc writes, ext4 will simply claim metadata blocks at allocation time, without first speculatively reserving the worst case and then freeing what was not used. To do this, we need a mechanism to track allocations in the quota subsystem, but potentially allow that allocation to actually go over quota. This patch adds a DQUOT_SPACE_NOFAIL flag and function variants for this purpose. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Switch __dquot_alloc_space and __dquot_free_space to take flags to indicate whether to warn and/or to reserve (or free reserve). This is slightly more readable at the callpoints, and makes it cleaner to add a "nofail" option in the next patch.

The extents code will sometimes zero out blocks and mark them as initialized instead of splitting an extent into several smaller ones. This optimization however, causes problems if the extent is beyond i_size because fsck will complain if there are uninitialized blocks after i_size as this can not be distinguished from an inode that has an incorrect i_size field. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15742Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

One of the most contended locks in the jbd2 layer is j_state_lock when running dbench. This is especially true if using the real-time kernel with its "sleeping spinlocks" patch that replaces spinlocks with priority inheriting mutexes --- but it also shows up on large SMP benchmarks. Thanks to John Stultz for pointing this out. Reviewed by Mingming Cao and Jan Kara. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

There was a bug reported on RHEL5 that a 10G dd on a 12G box had a very, very slow sync after that. At issue was the loop in write_cache_pages scanning all the way to the end of the 10G file, even though the subsequent call to mpage_da_submit_io would only actually write a smallish amt; then we went back to the write_cache_pages loop ... wasting tons of time in calling __mpage_da_writepage for thousands of pages we would just revisit (many times) later. Upstream it's not such a big issue for sys_sync because we get to the loop with a much smaller nr_to_write, which limits the loop. However, talking with Aneesh he realized that fsync upstream still gets here with a very large nr_to_write and we face the same problem. This patch makes mpage_add_bh_to_extent stop the loop after we've accumulated 2048 pages, by setting mpd->io_done = 1; which ultimately causes the write_cache_pages loop to break. Repeating the test with a dirty_ratio of 80 (to leave something for fsync to do), I don't see huge IO performance gains, but the reduction in cpu usage is striking: 80% usage with stock, and 2% with the below patch. Instrumenting the loop in write_cache_pages clearly shows that we are wasting time here. Eventually we need to change mpage_da_map_pages() also submit its I/O to the block layer, subsuming mpage_da_submit_io(), and then change it call ext4_get_blocks() multiple times.

Turn off issuance of discard requests if the device does not support it - similar to the action we take for barriers. This will save a little computation time if a non-discardable device is mounted with -o discard, and also makes it obvious that it's not doing what was asked at mount time ...

I have an x86_64 kernel with i386 userspace. e4defrag fails on the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl because it is not wired up for the compat case. It seems that struct move_extent is compat save, only types with fixed widths are used: { __u32 reserved; /* should be zero */ __u32 donor_fd; /* donor file descriptor */ __u64 orig_start; /* logical start offset in block for orig */ __u64 donor_start; /* logical start offset in block for donor */ __u64 len; /* block length to be moved */ __u64 moved_len; /* moved block length */ }; Lets just wire up EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT for the compat case.

commit 672917dc ("cpuidle: menu governor: reduce latency on exit") added an optimization, where the analysis on the past idle period moved from the end of idle, to the beginning of the new idle. Unfortunately, this optimization had a bug where it zeroed one key variable for new use, that is needed for the analysis. The fix is simple, zero the variable after doing the work from the previous idle. During the audit of the code that found this issue, another issue was also found; the ->measured_us data structure member is never set, a local variable is always used instead.

Some time ago we stopped the clean/active metadata updates from being written to a 'spare' device in most cases so that it could spin down and say spun down. Device failure/removal etc are still recorded on spares. However commit 51d5668c broke this 50% of the time, depending on whether the event count is even or odd. The change log entry said: This means that the alignment between 'odd/even' and 'clean/dirty' might take a little longer to attain, how ever the code makes no attempt to create that alignment, so it could take arbitrarily long. So when we find that clean/dirty is not aligned with odd/even, force a second metadata-update immediately. There are already cases where a second metadata-update is needed immediately (e.g. when a device fails during the metadata update). We just piggy-back on that.
