The default btrfs mount -o compress mode will quickly back off
compressing a file if it notices that compression does not reduce the
size of the data being written. This can save considerable CPU because
all future writes to the file go through uncompressed.
But some files are both very large and have mixed data stored in
them. In that case, we want to add the ability to always try
compressing data before writing it.
This commit adds mount -o compress-force. A later commit will add
a new inode flag that does the same thing.

We can race with the unmount of an fs and the stopping of a kthread where we
will free the block group before we're done using it. The reason for this is
because we do not hold a reference on the block group while its caching, since
the allocator drops its reference once it exits or moves on to the next block
group. This patch fixes the problem by taking a reference to the block group
before we start caching and dropping it when we're done to make sure all
accesses to the block group are safe. Thanks,

Currently orphan cleanup only ever gets triggered if we cross subvolumes during
a lookup, which means that if we just mount a plain jane fs that has orphans in
it, they will never get cleaned up. This results in panic's like these
http://www.kerneloops.org/oops.php?number=1109085
where adding an orphan entry results in -EEXIST being returned and we panic. In
order to fix this, we check to see on lookup if our root has had the orphan
cleanup done, and if not go ahead and do it. This is easily reproduceable by
running this testcase
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char data[4096];
char newdata[4096];
int fd1, fd2;
memset(data, 'a', 4096);
memset(newdata, 'b', 4096);
while (1) {
int i;
fd1 = creat("file1", 0666);
if (fd1 < 0)
break;
for (i = 0; i < 512; i++)
write(fd1, data, 4096);
fsync(fd1);
close(fd1);
fd2 = creat("file2", 0666);
if (fd2 < 0)
break;
ftruncate(fd2, 4096 * 512);

When one does a 32-bit readdir(3), the last entry of a directory is

[CIFS] Fix sparse warning
[CIFS] Duplicate data on appending to some Samba servers
[CIFS] fix oops in cifs_lookup during net boot
In 2.6.23 kernel, commit a32ea1e1f9
("Fix read/truncate race") fixed a race in the generic code, and as a
side effect, now do_generic_file_read() can ask us to readpage() past
the i_size. This seems to be correctly handled by the block routines
(e.g. block_read_full_page() fills the page with zeroes in case if
somebody is trying to read past the last inode's block).
JFFS2 doesn't handle this; it assumes that it won't be asked to read
pages which don't exist -- and thus that there will be at least _one_
valid 'frag' on the page it's being asked to read. It will fill any
holes with the following memset:
memset(buf, 0, min(end, frag->ofs + frag->size) - offset);
When the 'closest smaller match' returned by jffs2_lookup_node_frag() is
actually on a previous page and ends before 'offset', that results in:
memset(buf, 0, <huge unsigned negative>);
Hopefully, in most cases the corruption is fatal, and quickly causing
random oopses, like this:

The comment in fuse_open about O_DIRECT:

stub newfile will remain if the fuse server handled the implied FUSE_CREATE
request appropriately.

SMB writes are sent with a starting offset and length. When the server
supports the newer SMB trans2 posix open (rather than using the SMB
NTCreateX) a file can be opened with SMB_O_APPEND flag, and for that
case Samba server assumes that the offset sent in SMBWriteX is unneeded
since the write should go to the end of the file - which can cause
problems if the write was cached (since the beginning part of a
page could be written twice by the client mm). Jeff suggested that
masking the flag on posix open on the client is easiest for the time
being. Note that recent Samba server also had an unrelated problem with
SMB NTCreateX and append (see samba bugzilla bug number 6898) which
should not affect current Linux clients (unless cifs Unix Extensions
are disabled).
The cifs client did not send the O_APPEND flag on posix open
before 2.6.29 so the fix is unneeded on early kernels.
In the future, for the non-cached case (O_DIRECT, and forcedirectio mounts)
it would be possible and useful to send O_APPEND on posix open (for Windows
case: FILE_APPEND_DATA but not FILE_WRITE_DATA on SMB NTCreateX) but for
cached writes although the vfs sets the offset to end of file it
may fragment a write across pages - so we can't send O_APPEND on
open (could result in sending part of a page twice).

Catch an overly long wait for an old, dying active object when we want to
replace it with a new one. The probability is that all the slow-work threads
are hogged, and the delete can't get a look in.
What we do instead is:
(1) if there's nothing in the slow work queue, we sleep until either the dying
object has finished dying or there is something in the slow work queue
behind which we can queue our object.
(2) if there is something in the slow work queue, we return ETIMEDOUT to
fscache_lookup_object(), which then puts us back on the slow work queue,
presumably behind the deletion that we're blocked by. We are then
deferred for a while until we work our way back through the queue -
without blocking a slow-work thread unnecessarily.

cachefiles_write_page() writes a full page to the backing file for the last
page of the netfs file, even if the netfs file's last page is only a partial
page.
This causes the EOF on the backing file to be extended beyond the EOF of the
netfs, and thus the backing file will be truncated by cachefiles_attr_changed()
called from cachefiles_lookup_object().
So we need to limit the write we make to the backing file on that last page
such that it doesn't push the EOF too far.
Also, if a backing file that has a partial page at the end is expanded, we
discard the partial page and refetch it on the basis that we then have a hole
in the file with invalid data, and should the power go out... A better way to
deal with this could be to record a note that the partial page contains invalid
data until the correct data is written into it.
This isn't a problem for netfs's that discard the whole backing file if the
file size changes (such as NFS).

FS-Cache objects have an FSCACHE_OBJECT_EV_REQUEUE event that can theoretically
be raised to ask the state machine to requeue the object for further processing
before the work function returns to the slow-work facility.
However, fscache_object_work_execute() was clearing that bit before checking
the event mask to see whether the object has any pending events that require it
to be requeued immediately.
Instead, the bit should be cleared after the check and enqueue.

Start processing an object's operations when that object moves into the DYING
state as the object cannot be destroyed until all its outstanding operations
have completed.
Furthermore, make sure that read and allocation operations handle being woken
up on a dead object. Such events are recorded in the Allocs.abt and
Retrvls.abt statistics as viewable through /proc/fs/fscache/stats.
The code for waiting for object activation for the read and allocation
operations is also extracted into its own function as it is much the same in
all cases, differing only in the stats incremented.

We must make sure that FSCACHE_COOKIE_LOOKING_UP is cleared on lookup failure
(if an object reaches the LC_DYING state), and we should clear it before
clearing FSCACHE_COOKIE_CREATING.
If this doesn't happen then fscache_wait_for_deferred_lookup() may hold
allocation and retrieval operations indefinitely until they're interrupted by
signals - which in turn pins the dying object until they go away.
