c6ac12a615 ext4: update ctime when changing the file's permission by setfacl
ext4 didn't update the ctime of the file when its permission was
changed.

Steps to reproduce:
 # touch aaa
 # stat -c %Z aaa
 1275289822
 # setfacl -m  'u::x,g::x,o::x' aaa
 # stat -c %Z aaa
 1275289822                         <- unchanged

But, according to the spec of the ctime, ext4 must update it.

a0375156ca ext4: Clean up s_dirt handling
We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
is enabled.  In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted.  As a
result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
journal or by setting s_dirt.  There are a few exceptions, most
notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.

This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
with a journal.

1b061d9247 rename the generic fsync implementations
We don't name our generic fsync implementations very well currently.
The no-op implementation for in-memory filesystems currently is called
simple_sync_file which doesn't make too much sense to start with,
the the generic one for simple filesystems is called simple_fsync
which can lead to some confusion.

This patch renames the generic file fsync method to generic_file_fsync
to match the other generic_file_* routines it is supposed to be used
with, and the no-op implementation to noop_fsync to make it obvious
what to expect.  In addition add some documentation for both methods.

e0ccfd959c quota: move unmount handling into the filesystem
Currently the VFS calls into the quotactl interface for unmounting
filesystems.  This means filesystems with their own quota handling
can't easily distinguish between user-space originating quotaoff
and an unount.  Instead move the responsibily of the unmount handling
into the filesystem to be consistent with all other dquot handling.

Note that we do call dquot_disable a lot later now, e.g. after
a sync_filesystem.  But this is fine as the quota code does all its
writes via blockdev's mapping and that is synced even later.

c79d967de3 quota: move remount handling into the filesystem
Currently do_remount_sb calls into the dquot code to tell it about going
from rw to ro and ro to rw.  Move this code into the filesystem to
not depend on the dquot code in the VFS - note ocfs2 already ignores
these calls and handles remount by itself.  This gets rid of overloading
the quotactl calls and allows to unify the VFS and XFS codepaths in
that area later.

12755627bd quota: unify quota init condition in setattr
Quota must being initialized if size or uid/git changes requested.
But initialization performed in two different places:
in case of i_size file system is responsible for dquot init
, but in case of uid/gid init will be called internally in
dquot_transfer().
This ambiguity makes code harder to understand.

Add a new ext4 state to tell us when a file has been newly created; use

to sync the parent directory as well as the inode and data itself.  This
fixes a problem in which a panic or power failure may lose the entire
file even when using fsync, since the parent directory entry is lost.

786ec7915e ext4: Clear the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag only when warranted
Dimitry Monakhov discovered an edge case where it was possible for the
EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag could get cleared unnecessarily.  This is true;
I have a test case that can be exercised via downloading and
decompressing the file:

wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/ext4-testcases/eofblocks-fl-test-case.img.bz2
bunzip2 eofblocks-fl-test-case.img
dd if=/dev/zero of=eofblocks-fl-test-case.img bs=1k seek=17925 bs=1k count=1 conv=notrunc

However, triggering it in real life is highly unlikely since it
requires an extremely fragmented sparse file with a hole in exactly
the right place in the extent tree.  (It actually took quite a bit of
work to generate this test case.)  Still, it's nice to get even
extreme corner cases to be correct, so this patch makes sure that we
don't clear the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL incorrectly even in this corner
case.

f70f362b4a ext4: Avoid crashing on NULL ptr dereference on a filesystem error
If the EOFBLOCK_FL flag is set when it should not be and the inode is
zero length, then eh_entries is zero, and ex is NULL, so dereferencing
ex to print ex->ee_block causes a kernel OOPS in
ext4_ext_map_blocks().

On top of that, the error message which is printed isn't very helpful.
So we fix this by printing something more explanatory which doesn't
involve trying to print ex->ee_block.

8e48dcfbd7 ext4: Use our own write_cache_pages()
Make a copy of write_cache_pages() for the benefit of
ext4_da_writepages().  This allows us to simplify the code some, and
will allow us to further customize the code in future patches.

There are some nasty hacks in write_cache_pages(), which Linus has
(correctly) characterized as vile.  I've just copied it into
write_cache_pages_da(), without trying to clean those bits up lest I
break something in the ext4's delalloc implementation, which is a bit
fragile right now.  This will allow Dave Chinner to clean up
write_cache_pages() in mm/page-writeback.c, without worrying about
breaking ext4.  Eventually write_cache_pages_da() will go away when I
rewrite ext4's delayed allocation and create a general
ext4_writepages() which is used for all of ext4's writeback.  Until
now this is the lowest risk way to clean up the core
write_cache_pages() function.

8a57d9d61a ext4: check for a good block group before loading buddy pages
This adds a new field in ext4_group_info to cache the largest available
block range in a block group; and don't load the buddy pages until *after*
we've done a sanity check on the block group.

With large allocation requests (e.g., fallocate(), 8MiB) and relatively full
partitions, it's easy to have no block groups with a block extent large
enough to satisfy the input request length.  This currently causes the loop
during cr == 0 in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() to load the buddy bitmap pages
for EVERY block group.  That can be a lot of pages.  The patch below allows
us to call ext4_mb_good_group() BEFORE we load the buddy pages (although we
have check again after we lock the block group).

the mount message in ext4_fill_super() now have the original mount
options data string.

72b8ab9dde ext4: don't use quota reservation for speculative metadata
Because we can badly over-reserve metadata when we
calculate worst-case, it complicates things for quota, since
we must reserve and then claim later, retry on EDQUOT, etc.
Quota is also a generally smaller pool than fs free blocks,
so this over-reservation hurts more, and more often.

I'm of the opinion that it's not the worst thing to allow
metadata to push a user slightly over quota.  This simplifies
the code and avoids the false quota rejections that result
from worst-case speculation.

This patch stops the speculative quota-charging for
worst-case metadata requirements, and just charges quota
when the blocks are allocated at writeout.  It also is
able to remove the try-again loop on EDQUOT.

This patch has been tested indirectly by running the xfstests
suite with a hack to mount & enable quota prior to the test.

I also did a more specific test of fragmenting freespace
and then doing a large delalloc write under quota; quota
stopped me at the right amount of file IO, and then the
writeout generated enough metadata (due to the fragmentation)
that it put me slightly over quota, as expected.

84061e07c5 ext4: init statistics after journal recovery
Currently block/inode/dir counters initialized before journal was
recovered. In fact after journal recovery this info will probably
change. And freeblocks it critical for correct delalloc mode
accounting.

d17413c08c ext4: clean up inode bitmaps manipulation in ext4_free_inode
- Reorganize locking scheme to batch two atomic operation in to one.
  This also allow us to state what healthy group must obey following rule
  ext4_free_inodes_count(sb, gdp) == ext4_count_free(inode_bitmap, NUM);
- Fix possible undefined pointer dereference.
- Even if group descriptor stats aren't accessible we have to update
  inode bitmaps.
- Move non-group members update out of group_lock.

21ca087a38 ext4: Do not zero out uninitialized extents beyond i_size
The extents code will sometimes zero out blocks and mark them as
initialized instead of splitting an extent into several smaller ones.
This optimization however, causes problems if the extent is beyond
i_size because fsck will complain if there are uninitialized blocks
after i_size as this can not be distinguished from an inode that has
an incorrect i_size field.

c445e3e0a5 ext4: don't scan/accumulate more pages than mballoc will allocate
There was a bug reported on RHEL5 that a 10G dd on a 12G box
had a very, very slow sync after that.

At issue was the loop in write_cache_pages scanning all the way
to the end of the 10G file, even though the subsequent call
to mpage_da_submit_io would only actually write a smallish amt; then
we went back to the write_cache_pages loop ... wasting tons of time
in calling __mpage_da_writepage for thousands of pages we would
just revisit (many times) later.

Upstream it's not such a big issue for sys_sync because we get
to the loop with a much smaller nr_to_write, which limits the loop.

However, talking with Aneesh he realized that fsync upstream still
gets here with a very large nr_to_write and we face the same problem.

This patch makes mpage_add_bh_to_extent stop the loop after we've
accumulated 2048 pages, by setting mpd->io_done = 1; which ultimately
causes the write_cache_pages loop to break.

Repeating the test with a dirty_ratio of 80 (to leave something for
fsync to do), I don't see huge IO performance gains, but the reduction
in cpu usage is striking: 80% usage with stock, and 2% with the
below patch.  Instrumenting the loop in write_cache_pages clearly
shows that we are wasting time here.

Eventually we need to change mpage_da_map_pages() also submit its I/O
to the block layer, subsuming mpage_da_submit_io(), and then change it
call ext4_get_blocks() multiple times.
