Dave Chinner e9892d3cc8 xfs: only trace buffer items if they exist
The commit 2d3d0c5 ("xfs: lobotomise xfs_trans_read_buf_map()") left
a landmine in the tracing code: trace_xfs_trans_buf_read() is now
call on all buffers that are read through this interface rather than
just buffers in transactions. For buffers outside transaction
context, bp->b_fspriv is null, and so the buf log item tracing
functions cannot be called. This causes a NULL pointer dereference
in the trace_xfs_trans_buf_read() function when tracing is turned
on.

Dave Chinner 2d3d0c53df xfs: lobotomise xfs_trans_read_buf_map()
There's a case in that code where it checks for a buffer match in a
transaction where the buffer is not marked done. i.e. trying to
catch a buffer we have locked in the transaction but have not
completed IO on.

The only way we can find a buffer that has not had IO completed on
it is if it had readahead issued on it, but we never do readahead on
buffers that we have already joined into a transaction. Hence this
condition cannot occur, and buffers locked and joined into a
transaction should always be marked done and not under IO.

Remove this code and re-order xfs_trans_read_buf_map() to remove
duplicated IO dispatch and error handling code.

Dave Chinner 595bff75dc xfs: introduce xfs_buf_submit[_wait]
There is a lot of cookie-cutter code that looks like:

	if (shutdown)
		handle buffer error
	xfs_buf_iorequest(bp)
	error = xfs_buf_iowait(bp)
	if (error)
		handle buffer error

spread through XFS. There's significant complexity now in
xfs_buf_iorequest() to specifically handle this sort of synchronous
IO pattern, but there's all sorts of nasty surprises in different
error handling code dependent on who owns the buffer references and
the locks.

Pull this pattern into a single helper, where we can hide all the
synchronous IO warts and hence make the error handling for all the
callers much saner. This removes the need for a special extra
reference to protect IO completion processing, as we can now hold a
single reference across dispatch and waiting, simplifying the sync
IO smeantics and error handling.

In doing this, also rename xfs_buf_iorequest to xfs_buf_submit and
make it explicitly handle on asynchronous IO. This forces all users
to be switched specifically to one interface or the other and
removes any ambiguity between how the interfaces are to be used. It
also means that xfs_buf_iowait() goes away.

very well defined call semantics - read, synchronous, and b_iodone

Christoph Hellwig 83a0adc3f9 xfs: remove xfsbdstrat error
The xfsbdstrat helper is a small but useless wrapper for xfs_buf_iorequest that
handles the case of a shut down filesystem.  Most of the users have private,
uncached buffers that can just be freed in this case, but the complex error
handling in xfs_bioerror_relse messes up the case when it's called without
a locked buffer.

Remove xfsbdstrat and opencode the error handling in the callers.  All but
one can simply return an error and don't need to deal with buffer state,
and the one caller that cares about the buffer state could do with a major
cleanup as well, but we'll defer that to later.

Dave Chinner 239880ef64 xfs: decouple log and transaction headers
xfs_trans.h has a dependency on xfs_log.h for a couple of
structures. Most code that does transactions doesn't need to know
anything about the log, but this dependency means that they have to

files and clean up the includes to be in dependency order.

In doing this, remove the direct include of xfs_trans_reserve.h from
xfs_trans.h so that we remove the dependency between xfs_trans.h and
xfs_mount.h. Hence the xfs_trans.h include can be moved to the
indicate the actual dependencies other header files have on it.

Note that these are kernel only header files, so this does not

Dave Chinner 5f6bed76c0 xfs: Introduce an ordered buffer item
If we have a buffer that we have modified but we do not wish to
physically log in a transaction (e.g. we've logged a logical
change), we still need to ensure that transactional integrity is
maintained. Hence we must not move the tail of the log past the
transaction that the buffer is associated with before the buffer is
written to disk.

This means these special buffers still need to be included in the
transaction and added to the AIL just like a normal buffer, but we
do not want the modifications to the buffer written into the
transaction. IOWs, what we want is an "ordered buffer" that
maintains the same transactional life cycle as a physically logged
buffer, just without the transcribing of the modifications to the
log.

Hence we need to flag the buffer as an "ordered buffer" to avoid
including it in vector size calculations or formatting during the
transaction. Once the transaction is committed, the buffer appears
for all intents to be the same as a physically logged buffer as it
transitions through the log and AIL.

Relogging will also work just fine for such an ordered buffer - the
logical transaction will be replayed before the subsequent
modifications that relog the buffer, so everything will be
reconstructed correctly by recovery.

Dave Chinner 1813dd6405 xfs: convert buffer verifiers to an ops structure.
To separate the verifiers from iodone functions and associate read
and write verifiers at the same time, introduce a buffer verifier
operations structure to the xfs_buf.

This avoids the need for assigning the write verifier, clearing the
iodone function and re-running ioend processing in the read
verifier, and gets rid of the nasty "b_pre_io" name for the write
verifier function pointer. If we ever need to, it will also be
easier to add further content specific callbacks to a buffer with an
ops structure in place.

We also avoid needing to export verifier functions, instead we
can simply export the ops structures for those that are needed
outside the function they are defined in.

This patch also fixes a directory block readahead verifier issue
it exposed.

This patch also adds ops callbacks to the inode/alloc btree blocks
initialised by growfs. These will need more work before they will
work with CRCs.

Dave Chinner c3f8fc73ac xfs: make buffer read verication an IO completion function
Add a verifier function callback capability to the buffer read
interfaces.  This will be used by the callers to supply a function
that verifies the contents of the buffer when it is read from disk.
This patch does not provide callback functions, but simply modifies
the interfaces to allow them to be called.

The reason for adding this to the read interfaces is that it is very
difficult to tell fom the outside is a buffer was just read from
disk or whether we just pulled it out of cache. Supplying a callbck
allows the buffer cache to use it's internal knowledge of the buffer
to execute it only when the buffer is read from disk.

It is intended that the verifier functions will mark the buffer with
an EFSCORRUPTED error when verification fails. This allows the
reading context to distinguish a verification error from an IO
error, and potentially take further actions on the buffer (e.g.
attempt repair) based on the error reported.

All the blocking get calls in growfs occur inside a transaction, even though

Dave Chinner aa0e8833b0 xfs: use blocks for storing the desired IO size
Now that we pass block counts everywhere, and index buffers by block
number and length in units of blocks, convert the desired IO size
into block counts rather than bytes. Convert the code to use block
counts, and those that need byte counts get converted at the time of
use.

Rename the b_desired_count variable to something closer to it's
purpose - b_io_length - as it is only used to specify the length of
an IO for a subset of the buffer.  The only time this is used is for
log IO - both writing iclogs and during log recovery. In all other
cases, the b_io_length matches b_length, and hence a lot of code
confuses the two. e.g. the buf item code uses the io count
exclusively when it should be using the buffer length. Fix these
apprpriately as they are found.

Also, remove the XFS_BUF_{SET_}COUNT() macros that are just wrappers
around the desired IO length. They only serve to make the code
shouty loud, don't actually add any real value, and are often used
incorrectly.

This is now easily doable given that we have very few places left that write
delwri buffers:

 - log recovery:
	Only done at mount time, and already forcing out the buffers
	synchronously using xfs_flush_buftarg

 - quotacheck:
	Same story.

 - dquot reclaim:
	Writes out dirty dquots on the LRU under memory pressure.  We might
	want to look into doing more of this via xfsaild, but it's already
	more optimal than the synchronous inode reclaim that writes each
	buffer synchronously.

 - xfsaild:
	This is the main beneficiary of the change.  By keeping a local list
	of buffers to write we reduce latency of writing out buffers, and
	more importably we can remove all the delwri list promotions which
	were hitting the buffer cache hard under sustained metadata loads.

The implementation is very straight forward - xfs_buf_delwri_queue now gets
a new list_head pointer that it adds the delwri buffers to, and all callers
need to eventually submit the list using xfs_buf_delwi_submit or
xfs_buf_delwi_submit_nowait.  Buffers that already are on a delwri list are
skipped in xfs_buf_delwri_queue, assuming they already are on another delwri
list.  The biggest change to pass down the buffer list was done to the AIL
pushing. Now that we operate on buffers the trylock, push and pushbuf log
item methods are merged into a single push routine, which tries to lock the
item, and if possible add the buffer that needs writeback to the buffer list.
This leads to much simpler code than the previous split but requires the
individual IOP_PUSH instances to unlock and reacquire the AIL around calls
to blocking routines.

Given that xfsailds now also handle writing out buffers, the conditions for
log forcing and the sleep times needed some small changes.  The most
important one is that we consider an AIL busy as long we still have buffers
to push, and the other one is that we do increment the pushed LSN for
buffers that are under flushing at this moment, but still count them towards
the stuck items for restart purposes.  Without this we could hammer on stuck
items without ever forcing the log and not make progress under heavy random
delete workloads on fast flash storage devices.

[ Dave Chinner:
	- rebase on previous patches.
	- improved comments for XBF_DELWRI_Q handling
	- fix XBF_ASYNC handling in queue submission (test 106 failure)
	- rename delwri submit function buffer list parameters for clarity
	- xfs_efd_item_push() should return XFS_ITEM_PINNED ]

Christoph Hellwig 960c60af8b xfs: do not add buffers to the delwri queue until pushed
Instead of adding buffers to the delwri list as soon as they are logged,
even if they can't be written until commited because they are pinned
defer adding them to the delwri list until xfsaild pushes them.  This
makes the code more similar to other log items and prepares for writing
buffers directly from xfsaild.

The complication here is that we need to fail buffers that were added
but not logged yet in xfs_buf_item_unpin, borrowing code from
xfs_bioerror.

Christoph Hellwig 5b03ff1b24 xfs: remove xfs_trans_unlocked_item
There is no reason to wake up log space waiters when unlocking inodes or
dquots, and the commit log has no explanation for this function either.

Given that we now have exact log space wakeups everywhere we can assume
the reason for this function was to paper over log space races in earlier
XFS versions.

Unify the ways we add buffers to the delwri queue by always calling
xfs_buf_delwri_queue directly.  The xfs_bdwrite functions is removed and
opencoded in its callers, and the two places setting XBF_DELWRI while a
buffer is locked and expecting xfs_buf_unlock to pick it up are converted
to call xfs_buf_delwri_queue directly, too.  Also replace the
XFS_BUF_UNDELAYWRITE macro with direct calls to xfs_buf_delwri_dequeue
to make the explicit queuing/dequeuing more obvious.

Dave Chinner 7401aafd50 xfs: xfs_trans_read_buf() should return an error on failure
When inside a transaction and we fail to read a buffer,
xfs_trans_read_buf returns a null buffer pointer and no error.
xfs_do_da_buf() checks the error return, but not the buffer, and as
a result this read failure condition causes a panic when it attempts
to dereference the non-existant buffer.

Make xfs_trans_read_buf() return the same error for this situation
regardless of whether it is in a transaction or not. This means
every caller does not need to check both the error return and the
buffer before proceeding to use the buffer.
