Recently we've had a number of reports where log recovery on a v5
filesystem has reported corruptions that looked to be caused by
recovery being re-run over the top of an already-recovered
metadata. This has uncovered a bug in recovery (fixed elsewhere)
but the vector that caused this was largely unknown.
A kdump test started tripping over this problem - the system
would be crashed, the kdump kernel and environment would boot and
dump the kernel core image, and then the system would reboot. After
reboot, the root filesystem was triggering log recovery and
corruptions were being detected. The metadumps indicated the above
log recovery issue.
What is happening is that the kdump kernel and environment is
mounting the root device read-only to find the binaries needed to do
it's work. The result of this is that it is running log recovery.
However, because there were unlinked files and EFIs to be processed
by recovery, the completion of phase 1 of log recovery could not
mark the log clean. And because it's a read-only mount, the unmount
process does not write records to the log to mark it clean, either.
Hence on the next mount of the filesystem, log recovery was run
again across all the metadata that had already been recovered and
this is what triggered corruption warnings.
To avoid this problem, we need to ensure that a read-only mount
always updates the log when it completes the second phase of
recovery. We already handle this sort of issue with rw->ro remount
transitions, so the solution is as simple as quiescing the
filesystem at the appropriate time during the mount process. This
results in the log being marked clean so the mount behaviour
recorded in the logs on repeated RO mounts will change (i.e. log
recovery will no longer be run on every mount until a RW mount is
done). This is a user visible change in behaviour, but it is
harmless.

Al Viro noticed that xfs_lock_inodes should be static, and
that led to ... a few more.
These are just the easy ones, others require moving functions
higher in source files, so that's not done here to keep

inode32/inode64 allocator behavior with respect to mount, remount
and growfs is a little tricky.
The inode32 mount option should only enable the inode32 allocator
heuristics if the filesystem is large enough for 64-bit inodes to
exist. Today, it has this behavior on the initial mount, but a
remount with inode32 unconditionally changes the allocation
heuristics, even for a small fs.
Also, an inode32 mounted small filesystem should transition to the
inode32 allocator if the filesystem is subsequently grown to a
sufficient size. Today that does not happen.
This patch consolidates xfs_set_inode32 and xfs_set_inode64 into a
single new function, and moves the "is the maximum inode number big
enough to matter" test into that function, so it doesn't rely on the
caller to get it right - which remount did not do, previously.

Trying to support tiny disks only and saving a bit memory might have
made sense on an SGI O2 15 years ago, but is pretty pointless today.
Remove the rarely tested codepath that uses various smaller in-memory
types to reduce our test matrix and make the codebase a little bit
smaller and less complicated.

Today, if we perform an xfs_growfs which adds allocation groups,
mp->m_maxagi is not properly updated when the growfs is complete.
Therefore inodes will continue to be allocated only in the
AGs which existed prior to the growfs, and the new space
won't be utilized.
This is because of this path in xfs_growfs_data_private():
xfs_growfs_data_private
xfs_initialize_perag(mp, nagcount, &nagimax);
if (mp->m_flags & XFS_MOUNT_32BITINODES)
index = xfs_set_inode32(mp);
else
index = xfs_set_inode64(mp);
if (maxagi)
*maxagi = index;
where xfs_set_inode* iterates over the (old) agcount in
mp->m_sb.sb_agblocks, which has not yet been updated
in the growfs path. So "index" will be returned based on
the old agcount, not the new one, and new AGs are not available
for inode allocation.
Fix this by explicitly passing the proper AG count (which
xfs_initialize_perag() already has) down another level,
so that xfs_set_inode* can make the proper decision about
acceptable AGs for inode allocation in the potentially
newly-added AGs.
This has been broken since 3.7, when these two
xfs_set_inode* functions were added in commit 2d2194f.
Prior to that, we looped over "agcount" not sb_agblocks
in these calculations.

We don't do any data writeback from XFS any more - the VFS is
completely responsible for that, including for freeze. We can
replace the remaining caller with a VFS level function that
achieves the same thing, but without conflicting with current
writeback work.
This means we can remove the flush_work and xfs_flush_inodes() - the
VFS functionality completely replaces the internal flush queue for
doing this writeback work in a separate context to avoid stack
overruns.
This does have one complication - it cannot be called with page
locks held. Hence move the flushing of delalloc space when ENOSPC
occurs back up into xfs_file_aio_buffered_write when we don't hold
any locks that will stall writeback.
Unfortunately, writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle() is not sufficient to
trigger delalloc conversion fast enough to prevent spurious ENOSPC
whent here are hundreds of writers, thousands of small files and GBs
of free RAM. Hence we need to use sync_sb_inodes() to block callers
while we wait for writeback like the previous xfs_flush_inodes
implementation did.
That means we have to hold the s_umount lock here, but because this
call can nest inside i_mutex (the parent directory in the create
case, held by the VFS), we have to use down_read_trylock() to avoid
potential deadlocks. In practice, this trylock will succeed on
almost every attempt as unmount/remount type operations are
exceedingly rare.
Note: we always need to pass a count of zero to
generic_file_buffered_write() as the previously written byte count.
We only do this by accident before this patch by the virtue of ret
always being zero when there are no errors. Make this explicit
rather than needing to specifically zero ret in the ENOSPC retry
case.

Add xfs_set_inode32() to be used to enable inode32 allocation mode. this
will reduce the amount of duplicated code needed to mount/remount a
filesystem with inode32 option. This patch also changes
xfs_set_inode64() to return the maximum AG number that inodes can be
allocated instead of set mp->m_maxagi by itself, so that the behaviour
is the same as xfs_set_inode32(). This simplifies code that calls these
functions and needs to know the maximum AG that inodes can be allocated
in.
