Lockdep has the notion of locking subclasses so that you can identify
locks you expect to be taken after other locks of the same class. This
changes the per-extent buffer btree locking routines to use a subclass based
on the level in the tree.
Unfortunately, lockdep can only handle 8 total subclasses, and the btrfs
max level is also 8. So when lockdep is on, use a lower max level.

Stress testing was showing data checksum errors, most of which were caused
by a lookup bug in the extent_map tree. The tree was caching the last
pointer returned, and searches would check the last pointer first.
But, search callers also expect the search to return the very first
matching extent in the range, which wasn't always true with the last
pointer usage.
For now, the code to cache the last return value is just removed. It is
easy to fix, but I think lookups are rare enough that it isn't required anymore.
This commit also replaces do_sync_mapping_range with a local copy of the
related functions.

Before, extent buffers were a temporary object, meant to map a number of pages
at once and collect operations on them.
But, a few extra fields have crept in, and they are also the best place to
store a per-tree block lock field as well. This commit puts the extent
buffers into an rbtree, and ensures a single extent buffer for each
tree block.

* Change the writepage fixup handler to lock the page range and check to
see if an ordered extent had been inserted since the improperly dirtied

* Wait for ordered extents outside the transaction. This isn't required

Data checksumming is done right before the bio is sent down the IO stack,

btrfs_drop_extents is always called with a range lock held on the inode.
But, it may operate on extents outside that range as it drops and splits
them.
This patch adds a per-inode mutex that is held while calling
btrfs_drop_extents and while inserting new extents into the tree. It
prevents races from two procs working against adjacent ranges in the tree.

Checksum items are not inserted until the entire ordered extent is on disk,
but individual pages might be clean and available for reclaim long before
the whole extent is on disk.
In order to allow those pages to be freed, we need to be able to search
the list of ordered extents to find the checksum that is going to be inserted
in the tree. This way if the page needs to be read back in before
the checksums are in the btree, we'll be able to verify the checksum on
the page.
This commit adds the ability to search the pending ordered extents for
a given offset in the file, and changes btrfs_releasepage to allow
ordered pages to be freed.

The old data=ordered code would force commit to wait until
all the data extents from the transaction were fully on disk. This
introduced large latencies into the commit and stalled new writers
in the transaction for a long time.
The new code changes the way data allocations and extents work:
* When delayed allocation is filled, data extents are reserved, and
the extent bit EXTENT_ORDERED is set on the entire range of the extent.
A struct btrfs_ordered_extent is allocated an inserted into a per-inode
rbtree to track the pending extents.
* As each page is written EXTENT_ORDERED is cleared on the bytes corresponding
to that page.
* When all of the bytes corresponding to a single struct btrfs_ordered_extent
are written, The previously reserved extent is inserted into the FS
btree and into the extent allocation trees. The checksums for the file
data are also updated.

This calls unlock_up sooner in btrfs_search_slot in order to decrease the

The existing throttle mechanism was often not sufficient to prevent
new writers from coming in and making a given transaction run forever.
This adds an explicit wait at the end of most operations so they will
allow the current transaction to close.
There is no wait inside file_write, inode updates, or cow filling, all which
have different deadlock possibilities.
This is a temporary measure until better asynchronous commit support is
added. This code leads to stalls as it waits for data=ordered
writeback, and it really needs to be fixed.

Allocations may need to read in block groups from the extent allocation tree,
which will require a tree search and take locks on the extent allocation
tree. But, those locks might already be held in other places, leading
to deadlocks.
Since the alloc_mutex serializes everything right now, it is safe to
skip the btree locking while caching block groups. A better fix will be
to either create a recursive lock or find a way to back off existing
locks while caching block groups.

The allocation trees and the chunk trees are serialized via their own
dedicated mutexes. This means allocation location is still not very
fine grained.
The main FS btree is protected by locks on each block in the btree. Locks
are taken top / down, and as processing finishes on a given level of the
tree, the lock is released after locking the lower level.
The end result of a search is now a path where only the lowest level
is locked. Releasing or freeing the path drops any locks held.

Btrfs has been using workqueues to spread the checksumming load across
other CPUs in the system. But, workqueues only schedule work on the
same CPU that queued the work, giving them a limited benefit for systems with
higher CPU counts.
This code adds a generic facility to schedule work with pools of kthreads,
and changes the bio submission code to queue bios up. The queueing is
important to make sure large numbers of procs on the system don't
turn streaming workloads into random workloads by sending IO down
concurrently.
The end result of all of this is much higher performance (and CPU usage) when
doing checksumming on large machines. Two worker pools are created,
one for writes and one for endio processing. The two could deadlock if
we tried to service both from a single pool.

These ioctls let a user application hold a transaction open while it
performs a series of operations. A final ioctl does a sync on the fs
(closing the current transaction). This is the main requirement for
Ceph's OSD to be able to keep the data it's storing in a btrfs volume
consistent, and AFAICS it works just fine. The application would do
something like
fd = ::open("some/file", O_RDONLY);
::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_START);
/* do a bunch of stuff */
::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_END);
or just
::close(fd);
And to ensure it commits to disk,
::ioctl(fd, BTRFS_IOC_SYNC);
When a transaction is held open, the trans_handle is attached to the
struct file (via private_data) so that it will get cleaned up if the
process dies unexpectedly. A held transaction is also ended on fsync() to
avoid a deadlock.
A misbehaving application could also deliberately hold a transaction open,
effectively locking up the FS, so it may make sense to restrict something
like this to root or something.
