a94733d0bc Btrfs: use find_or_create_page instead of grab_cache_page
grab_cache_page will use mapping_gfp_mask(), which for all inodes is set to
GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE.  So instead use find_or_create_page in all cases where we
need GFP_NOFS so we don't deadlock.  Thanks,

2f356126c5 Btrfs: use the normal checksumming infrastructure for free space cache
We used to store the checksums of the space cache directly in the space cache,
however that doesn't work out too well if we have more space than we can fit the
checksums into the first page.  So instead use the normal checksumming
infrastructure.  There were problems with doing this originally but those
problems don't exist now so this works out fine.  Thanks,

A user reported this bug again where we have more bitmaps than we are supposed
to.  This is because we failed to load the free space cache, but don't update
the ctl->total_bitmaps counter when we remove entries from the tree.  This patch
fixes this problem and we should be good to go again.  Thanks,

38e8788066 Btrfs: make sure to recheck for bitmaps in clusters
Josef recently changed the free extent cache to look in
the block group cluster for any bitmaps before trying to
add a new bitmap for the same offset.  This avoids BUG_ON()s due
covering duplicate ranges.

But it didn't go quite far enough.  A given free range might span
between one or more bitmaps or free space entries.  The code has
looping to cover this, but it doesn't check for clustered bitmaps
every time.

This shuffles our gotos to check for a bitmap in the cluster
for every new bitmap entry we try to add.

2cdc342c20 Btrfs: fix bitmap regression
In cleaning up the clustering code I accidently introduced a regression by
adding bitmap entries to the cluster rb tree.  The problem is if we've maxed out
the number of bitmaps we can have for the block group we can only add free space
to the bitmaps, but since the bitmap is on the cluster we can't find it and we
try to create another one.  This would result in a panic because the total
bitmaps was bigger than the max bitmaps that were allowed.  This patch fixes
this by checking to see if we have a cluster, and then looking at the cluster rb
tree to see if it has a bitmap entry and if it does and that space belongs to
that bitmap, go ahead and add it to that bitmap.

I could hit this panic every time with an fs_mark test within a couple of
minutes.  With this patch I no longer hit the panic and fs_mark goes to
completion.  Thanks,

86d4a77ba3 Btrfs: cache bitmaps when searching for a cluster
If we are looking for a cluster in a particularly sparse or fragmented block
group, we will do a lot of looping through the free space tree looking for
various things, and if we need to look at bitmaps we will endup doing the whole
dance twice.  So instead add the bitmap entries to a temporary list so if we
have to do the bitmap search we can just look through the list of entries we've
found quickly instead of having to loop through the entire tree again.  Thanks,

82d5902d9c Btrfs: Support reading/writing on disk free ino cache
This is similar to block group caching.

We dedicate a special inode in fs tree to save free ino cache.

At the very first time we create/delete a file after mount, the free ino
cache will be loaded from disk into memory. When the fs tree is commited,
the cache will be written back to disk.

To keep compatibility, we check the root generation against the generation
of the special inode when loading the cache, so the loading will fail
if the btrfs filesystem was mounted in an older kernel before.

581bb05094 Btrfs: Cache free inode numbers in memory
Currently btrfs stores the highest objectid of the fs tree, and it always
returns (highest+1) inode number when we create a file, so inode numbers
won't be reclaimed when we delete files, so we'll run out of inode numbers
as we keep create/delete files in 32bits machines.

This fixes it, and it works similarly to how we cache free space in block
cgroups.

We start a kernel thread to read the file tree. By scanning inode items,
we know which chunks of inode numbers are free, and we cache them in
an rb-tree.

Because we are searching the commit root, we have to carefully handle the
cross-transaction case.

The rb-tree is a hybrid extent+bitmap tree, so if we have too many small
chunks of inode numbers, we'll use bitmaps. Initially we allow 16K ram
of extents, and a bitmap will be used if we exceed this threshold. The
extents threshold is adjusted in runtime.

34d52cb6c5 Btrfs: Make free space cache code generic
So we can re-use the code to cache free inode numbers.

The change is quite straightforward. Two new structures are introduced.

- struct btrfs_free_space_ctl

  We move those variables that are used for caching free space from
  struct btrfs_block_group_cache to this new struct.

- struct btrfs_free_space_op

  We do block group specific work (e.g. calculation of extents threshold)
  through functions registered in this struct.

And then we can remove references to struct btrfs_block_group_cache.

43be21462d Btrfs: fix free space cache when there are pinned extents and clusters V2
I noticed a huge problem with the free space cache that was presenting
as an early ENOSPC.  Turns out when writing the free space cache out I
forgot to take into account pinned extents and more importantly
clusters.  This would result in us leaking free space everytime we
unmounted the filesystem and remounted it.

I fix this by making sure to check and see if the current block group
has a cluster and writing out any entries that are in the cluster to the
cache, as well as writing any pinned extents we currently have to the
cache since those will be available for us to use the next time the fs
mounts.

This patch also adds a check to the end of load_free_space_cache to make
sure we got the right amount of free space cache, and if not make sure
to clear the cache and re-cache the old fashioned way.

4e69b598f6 Btrfs: cleanup how we setup free space clusters
This patch makes the free space cluster refilling code a little easier to
understand, and fixes some things with the bitmap part of it.  Currently we
either want to refill a cluster with

1) All normal extent entries (those without bitmaps)
2) A bitmap entry with enough space

The current code has this ugly jump around logic that will first try and fill up
the cluster with extent entries and then if it can't do that it will try and
find a bitmap to use.  So instead split this out into two functions, one that
tries to find only normal entries, and one that tries to find bitmaps.

This also fixes a suboptimal thing we would do with bitmaps.  If we used a
bitmap we would just tell the cluster that we were pointing at a bitmap and it
would do the tree search in the block group for that entry every time we tried
to make an allocation.  Instead of doing that now we just add it to the clusters
group.

I tested this with my ENOSPC tests and xfstests and it survived.

32cb0840ce Btrfs: don't be as aggressive about using bitmaps
We have been creating bitmaps for small extents unconditionally forever.  This
was great when testing to make sure the bitmap stuff was working, but is
overkill normally.  So instead of always adding small chunks of free space to
bitmaps, only start doing it if we go past half of our extent threshold.  This
will keeps us from creating a bitmap for just one small free extent at the front
of the block group, and will make the allocator a little faster as a result.

d0a365e84a Btrfs: deal with min_bytes appropriately when looking for a cluster
We do all this fun stuff with min_bytes, but either don't use it in the case of
just normal extents, or use it completely wrong in the case of bitmaps.  So fix
this for both cases

1) In the extent case, stop looking for space with window_free >= min_bytes
instead of bytes + empty_size.

2) In the bitmap case, we were looking for streches of free space that was at
least min_bytes in size, which was not right at all.  So instead search for
stretches of free space that are at least bytes in size (this will make a
difference when we have > page size blocks) and then only search for min_bytes
amount of free space.

0af3d00bad Btrfs: create special free space cache inode
In order to save free space cache, we need an inode to hold the data, and we
need a special item to point at the right inode for the right block group.  So
first, create a special item that will point to the right inode, and the number
of extent entries we will have and the number of bitmaps we will have.  We
truncate and pre-allocate space everytime to make sure it's uptodate.

This feature will be turned on as soon as you mount with -o space_cache, however
it is safe to boot into old kernels, they will just generate the cache the old
fashion way.  When you boot back into a newer kernel we will notice that we
modified and not the cache and automatically discard the cache.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
