The 'end' value must exactly cover the end of the interval, which means
one byte less than the expected block alignment, or in case of a file
smaller than one block, one byte less than the inode size.

Btrfs has been pointer tagging bi_private and using bi_bdev
to store the stripe index and mirror number of failed IOs.
As bios bubble back up through the call chain, we use these
to decide if and how to retry our IOs. They are also used
to count IO failures on a per device basis.
Recently a bio tracepoint was added lead to crashes because
we were abusing bi_bdev.
This commit adds a btrfs bioset, and creates explicit fields
for the mirror number and stripe index. The plan is to
extend this structure for all of the fields currently in
struct btrfs_bio, which will mean one less kmalloc in
our IO path.

end_bio_extent_readpage computes whole_page based on bv_offset and
bv_len, without taking into account that blk_update_request may modify
them when some of the blocks to be read into a page produce a read
error. This would cause the read to unlock only part of the file
range associated with the page, which would in turn leave the entire
page locked, which would not only keep the process blocked instead of
returning -EIO to it, but also prevent any further access to the file.
It turns out that btrfs always issues whole-page reads and writes.
The special handling of non-whole_page appears to be a mistake or a
left-over from a time when this wasn't the case. Indeed,
end_bio_extent_writepage distinguished between whole_page and
non-whole_page writes but behaved identically in both cases!
I've replaced the whole_page computations with warnings, just to be
sure that we're not issuing partial page reads or writes. The
warnings should probably just go away some time.

Btrfs uses page_mkwrite to ensure stable pages during
crc calculations and mmap workloads. We call clear_page_dirty_for_io
before we do any crcs, and this forces any application with the file
mapped to wait for the crc to finish before it is allowed to change
the file.
With compression on, the clear_page_dirty_for_io step is happening after
we've compressed the pages. This means the applications might be
changing the pages while we are compressing them, and some of those
modifications might not hit the disk.
This commit adds the clear_page_dirty_for_io before compression starts
and makes sure to redirty the page if we have to fallback to
uncompressed IO as well.

Though most of the btrfs codes are using ALIGN macro for page alignment,
there are still some codes using open-coded alignment like the
following:
------
u64 mask = ((u64)root->stripesize - 1);
u64 ret = (val + mask) & ~mask;
------
Or even hidden one:
------
num_bytes = (end - start + blocksize) & ~(blocksize - 1);
------
Sometimes these open-coded alignment is not so easy to understand for
newbie like me.
This commit changes the open-coded alignment to the ALIGN macro for a
better readability.

The extent buffers have a refs_lock which we use to make coordinate freeing
the extent buffer with operations on the radix tree. On tree roots and
other extent buffers that very cache hot, this can be highly contended.
These are also the extent buffers that are basically pinned in memory.
This commit adds code to cmpxchg our way through the ref modifications,
and as long as the result of the reference change is still pinned in

This builds on David Woodhouse's original Btrfs raid5/6 implementation.
The code has changed quite a bit, blame Chris Mason for any bugs.
Read/modify/write is done after the higher levels of the filesystem have
prepared a given bio. This means the higher layers are not responsible
for building full stripes, and they don't need to query for the topology
of the extents that may get allocated during delayed allocation runs.
It also means different files can easily share the same stripe.
But, it does expose us to incorrect parity if we crash or lose power
while doing a read/modify/write cycle. This will be addressed in a
later commit.
Scrub is unable to repair crc errors on raid5/6 chunks.
Discard does not work on raid5/6 (yet)
The stripe size is fixed at 64KiB per disk. This will be tunable
in a later commit.

With the addition of the device replace procedure, it is possible
for btrfs_map_bio(READ) to report an error. This happens when the
specific mirror is requested which is located on the target disk,
and the copy operation has not yet copied this block. Hence the
block cannot be read and this error state is indicated by
returning EIO.
Some background information follows now. A new mirror is added
while the device replace procedure is running.
btrfs_get_num_copies() returns one more, and
btrfs_map_bio(GET_READ_MIRROR) adds one more mirror if a disk
location is involved that was already handled by the device
replace copy operation. The assigned mirror num is the highest
mirror number, e.g. the value 3 in case of RAID1.
If btrfs_map_bio() is invoked with mirror_num == 0 (i.e., select
any mirror), the copy on the target drive is never selected
because that disk shall be able to perform the write requests as
quickly as possible. The parallel execution of read requests would
only slow down the disk copy procedure. Second case is that
btrfs_map_bio() is called with mirror_num > 0. This is done from
the repair code only. In this case, the highest mirror num is
assigned to the target disk, since it is used last. And when this
mirror is not available because the copy procedure has not yet
handled this area, an error is returned. Everywhere in the code
the handling of such errors is added now.

There are a coule scenarios where farming metadata csumming off to an async

which case the csumming will be fast and so the overhead of the async model
is not worth the cost. The other case is for our tree log. We will be
making that stuff dirty and writing it out and waiting for it immediately.
Even with software crc32c this gives me a ~15% increase in speed with O_SYNC

The btrfs send code was assuming the offset of the file item into the
extent translated to bytes on disk. If we're compressed, this isn't
true, and so it was off into extents owned by other files.
It was also improperly handling inline extents. This solves a crash
where we may have gone past the end of the file extent item by not
testing early enough for an inline extent. It also solves problems
where we have a whole between the end of the inline item and the start

Pull large btrfs update from Chris Mason:
"This pull request is very large, and the two main features in here
have been under testing/devel for quite a while.
We have subvolume quotas from the strato developers. This enables
full tracking of how many blocks are allocated to each subvolume (and
all snapshots) and you can set limits on a per-subvolume basis. You
can also create quota groups and toss multiple subvolumes into a big
group. It's everything you need to be a web hosting company and give
each user their own subvolume.
The userland side of the quotas is being refreshed, they'll send out
details on where to grab it soon.
Next is the kernel side of btrfs send/receive from Alexander Block.
This leverages the same infrastructure as the quota code to figure out
relationships between blocks and their owners. It can then compute
the difference between two snapshots and sends the diffs in a neutral
format into userland.
The basic model:
create a snapshot
send that snapshot as the initial backup
make changes
create a second snapshot
send the incremental as a backup
delete the first snapshot
(use the second snapshot for the next incremental)
The receive portion is all in userland, and in the 'next' branch of my
btrfs-progs repo.
There's still some work to do in terms of optimizing the send side
from kernel to userland. The really important part is figuring out
how two snapshots are different, and this is where we are
concentrating right now. The initial send of a dataset is a little
slower than tar, but the incremental sends are dramatically faster
than what rsync can do.
On top of all of that, we have a nice queue of fixes, cleanups and
optimizations."

While testing with my buffer read fio jobs[1], I find that btrfs does not
perform well enough.
Here is a scenario in fio jobs:
We have 4 threads, "t1 t2 t3 t4", starting to buffer read a same file,
and all of them will race on add_to_page_cache_lru(), and if one thread
successfully puts its page into the page cache, it takes the responsibility
to read the page's data.
And what's more, reading a page needs a period of time to finish, in which
other threads can slide in and process rest pages:
t1 t2 t3 t4
add Page1
read Page1 add Page2
| read Page2 add Page3
| | read Page3 add Page4
| | | read Page4
-----|------------|-----------|-----------|--------
v v v v
bio bio bio bio
Now we have four bios, each of which holds only one page since we need to
maintain consecutive pages in bio. Thus, we can end up with far more bios
than we need.
Here we're going to
a) delay the real read-page section and
b) try to put more pages into page cache.
With that said, we can make each bio hold more pages and reduce the number
of bios we need.
Here is some numbers taken from fio results:

There is a small window where an eb can have no IO bits set on it, which
could potentially result in extent_buffer_under_io() returning false when we
want it to return true, which could result in not fun things happening. So
in order to protect this case we need to hold the refs_lock when we make
this transition to make sure we get reliable results out of
extent_buffer_udner_io(). Thanks,
