2008-07-14ext4: delayed allocation ENOSPC handlingMingming Cao9-50/+257
This patch does block reservation for delayed allocation, to avoid ENOSPC later at page flush time. Blocks(data and metadata) are reserved at da_write_begin() time, the freeblocks counter is updated by then, and the number of reserved blocks is store in per inode counter. At the writepage time, the unused reserved meta blocks are returned back. At unlink/truncate time, reserved blocks are properly released. Updated fix from Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> to fix the oldallocator block reservation accounting with delalloc, added lock to guard the counters and also fix the reservation for meta blocks.

2008-07-11percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_setMingming Cao1-1/+1
Delayed allocation need to check free blocks at every write time. percpu_counter_read_positive() is not quit accurate. delayed allocation need a more accurate accounting, but using percpu_counter_sum_positive() is frequently is quite expensive. This patch added a new function to update center counter when sum per-cpu counter, to increase the accurate rate for next percpu_counter_read() and require less calling expensive percpu_counter_sum().

Also added a fix to clear buffer_delay in block_write_full_page() after allocating a delayed buffer. Updated with fixes from Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> to update i_disksize properly and to add bmap support for delayed allocation.

This patch makes ext4 use inode-based implementation of data=ordered mode in JBD2. It allows us to unify some data=ordered and data=writeback paths (especially writepage since we don't have to start a transaction anymore) and remove some buffer walking.

2008-07-11ext4: Invert the locking order of page_lock and transaction startJan Kara3-156/+155
This changes are needed to support data=ordered mode handling via inodes. This enables us to get rid of the journal heads and buffer heads for data buffers in the ordered mode. With the changes, during tranasaction commit we writeout the inode pages using the writepages()/writepage(). That implies we take page lock during transaction commit. This can cause a deadlock with the locking order page_lock -> jbd2_journal_start, since the jbd2_journal_start can wait for the journal_commit to happen and the journal_commit now needs to take the page lock. To avoid this dead lock reverse the locking order.

We would like to get notified when we are doing a write on mmap section. This is needed with respect to preallocated area. We split the preallocated area into initialzed extent and uninitialzed extent in the call back. This let us handle ENOSPC better. Otherwise we get ENOSPC in the writepage and that would result in data loss. The changes are also needed to handle ENOSPC when writing to an mmap section of files with holes.

2008-07-11ext4: Use inode preallocation with -o noextentsAneesh Kumar K.V5-24/+95
When mballoc is enabled, block allocation for old block-based files are allocated using mballoc allocator instead of old block-based allocator. The old ext3 block reservation is turned off when mballoc is turned on. However, the in-core preallocation is not enabled for block-based/ non-extent based file block allocation. This result in performance regression, as now we don't have "reservation" ore in-core preallocation to prevent interleaved fragmentation in multiple writes workload. This patch fix this by enable per inode in-core preallocation for non extent files when mballoc is used.

2008-07-11ext4: New inode allocation for FLEX_BG meta-data groups.Jose R. Santos6-1/+209
This patch mostly controls the way inode are allocated in order to make ialloc aware of flex_bg block group grouping. It achieves this by bypassing the Orlov allocator when block group meta-data are packed toghether through mke2fs. Since the impact on the block allocator is minimal, this patch should have little or no effect on other block allocation algorithms. By controlling the inode allocation, it can basically control where the initial search for new block begins and thus indirectly manipulate the block allocator. This allocator favors data and meta-data locality so the disk will gradually be filled from block group zero upward. This helps improve performance by reducing seek time. Since the group of inode tables within one flex_bg are treated as one giant inode table, uninitialized block groups would not need to partially initialize as many inode table as with Orlov which would help fsck time as the filesystem usage goes up.

2008-06-03ext4: Fix uninit block group initialization with FLEX_BGJose R. Santos1-9/+62
With FLEX_BG block bitmaps, inode bitmaps and inode tables _MAY_ be allocated outside the group. So, when initializing an uninitialized block bitmap, we need to check the location of this blocks before setting the corresponding bits in the block bitmap of the newly initialized group. Also return the right number of free blocks when counting the available free blocks in uninit group. Tested-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@inux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jose R.
