sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.
This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.
For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
following message.

The name 'pin' was badly chosen, it doesn't pin a pipe buffer
in the most commonly used sense in the kernel. So change the
name to 'confirm', after debating this issue with Hugh
Dickins a bit.
A good return from ->confirm() means that the buffer is really

A bit of a cheat, it actually just copies the data to userspace. But
this makes the interface nice and symmetric and enables people to build

For direct splicing (or private splicing), the output may not be a file.
So abstract out the handling into a specified actor function and put
the data in the splice_desc structure earlier, so we can build on top
of that.
This is the first step in better splice handling for drivers, and also
for implementing vmsplice _to_ user memory.

The write path code intends to bug if a math error (or unhandled case)
results in a write outside of the current cluster boundaries. The actual
BUG_ON() statements however are incorrect, leading to a crash on kernels
with 64k page size. Fix those by checking against the right variables.
Also, move the assertions higher up within the functions so that they trip
*before* the code starts to mark buffers.

I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by
SLAB.
I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.
I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free. That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.
Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code
in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree).
There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.
This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.

OCFS2_I(inode)->ip_alloc_sem is a read-write semaphore protecting
local concurrent access of ocfs2 inodes. However, ocfs2 directories were
not taking the semaphore while they accessed or modified the allocation
tree.
ocfs2_extend_dir() needs to take the semaphore in a write mode when it
adds to the allocation. All other directory users get there via
ocfs2_bread(), which takes the semaphore in read mode.

The extent map code was ripped out earlier because of an inability to deal
with holes. This patch adds back a simpler caching scheme requiring far less
code.
Our old extent map caching was designed back when meta data block caching in
Ocfs2 didn't work very well, resulting in many disk reads. These days our
metadata caching is much better, resulting in no un-necessary disk reads. As
a result, extent caching doesn't have to be as fancy, nor does it have to
cache as many extents. Keeping the last 3 extents seen should be sufficient
to give us a small performance boost on some streaming workloads.

Due to the size of our group bitmaps, we'll never have a leaf node extent
record with more than 16 bits worth of clusters. Split e_clusters up so that

Interior nodes whose length references all the child nodes beneath it can't
split their e_clusters field, so we use a union to preserve sizing there.

Unfortunately, ocfs2 can no longer make use of generic_file_aio_write_nlock()
because allocating writes will require zeroing of pages adjacent to the I/O
for cluster sizes greater than page size.
Implement a custom file write here, which can order page locks for zeroing.
This also has the advantage that cluster locks can easily be ordered outside
of the page locks.

Right now, file allocation for ocfs2 is done within ocfs2_extend_file(),
which is either called from ->setattr() (for an i_size change), or at the
top of ocfs2_file_aio_write().
Inodes on file systems with sparse file support will want to do their
allocation during the actual write call.
In either case the cluster locking decisions are the same. We abstract out
that code into a new function, ocfs2_lock_allocators() which will be used by
a later patch to enable writing to sparse files.
This also provides a nice cleanup of ocfs2_extend_allocation().
Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
For ocfs2_truncate_file(), we eliminate the "simple" truncate case which no
longer exists since i_size is not tied to i_clusters. In
ocfs2_extend_file(), we skip the allocation / page zeroing code for file
systems which understand sparse files.
The core truncate code is changed to do a bottom up tree traversal. This
gets abstracted out into it's own function. To make things more readable,
most of the special case handling for in-inode extents from
ocfs2_do_truncate() is also removed.
Though write support for sparse files comes in a later patch, we at least
update ocfs2_prepare_inode_for_write() to skip allocation for sparse files.

The code in extent_map.c is not prepared to deal with a subtree being
rotated between lookups. This can happen when filling holes in sparse files.
Instead of a lengthy patch to update the code (which would likely lose the

implement a simple path based lookup. A less ambitious extent caching scheme
will be added in a later patch.
