"I see. Now I understand your patch. Honestly, seeing how fragile is trying
to fix extent tree after split has failed in the middle, I would probably
go even further and make sure we fix the tree properly in case of ENOSPC

HW problem or fs corruption so I'd rather leave the extent tree as is and
don't try to fix it (which also means we will not create overlapping
extents)."

<title>ext4: reset retry counter when ext4_alloc_file_blocks() makes progress</title>

Change the retry policy in ext4_alloc_file_blocks() to allow for a full
retry cycle whenever a portion of an allocation request has been
fulfilled.  A large allocation request often results in multiple calls
to ext4_map_blocks(), each of which is potentially subject to a
temporary ENOSPC condition and retry cycle.  The current code only
allows for a single retry cycle.

This patch does not address a known bug or reported complaint.
However, it should make block allocation for fallocate and zero range
more robust.

In addition, simplify the conditional controlling the allocation while
loop, where testing len alone is sufficient.  Remove the assignment to
ret2 in the error path after the call to ext4_map_blocks() since its
value isn't subsequently used.

Firstly, pass handle to all ext4_fc_track_* functions and use
transaction id found in handle-&gt;h_transaction-&gt;h_tid for tracking fast
commit updates. Secondly, don't pass inode to
ext4_fc_track_link/create/unlink functions. inode can be found inside
these functions as d_inode(dentry). However, rename path is an
exeception. That's because in that case, we need inode that's not same
as d_inode(dentry). To handle that, add a couple of low-level wrapper
functions that take inode and dentry as arguments.

ext4_fc_track_range() should only be called when blocks are added or
removed from an inode. So, the only places from where we need to call
this function are ext4_map_blocks(), punch hole, collapse / zero
range, truncate. Remove all the other redundant calls to ths function.

ext4_ext_search_right() will read more extent blocks and call put_bh
after we get the information we need.  However, ret_ex will break this
and may cause use-after-free once pagecache has been freed.  Fix it by
copying the extent structure if needed.

This patch adds fast commit recovery path support for Ext4 file
system. We add several helper functions that are similar in spirit to
e2fsprogs journal recovery path handlers. Example of such functions
include - a simple block allocator, idempotent block bitmap update
function etc. Using these routines and the fast commit log in the fast
commit area, the recovery path (ext4_fc_replay()) performs fast commit
log recovery.

This patch adds main fast commit commit path handlers. The overall
patch can be divided into two inter-related parts:

(A) Metadata updates tracking

    This part consists of helper functions to track changes that need
    to be committed during a commit operation. These updates are
    maintained by Ext4 in different in-memory queues. Following are
    the APIs and their short description that are implemented in this
    patch:

    - ext4_fc_track_link/unlink/creat() - Track unlink. link and creat
      operations
    - ext4_fc_track_range() - Track changed logical block offsets
      inodes
    - ext4_fc_track_inode() - Track inodes
    - ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() - Mark file system fast commit
      ineligible()
    - ext4_fc_start_update() / ext4_fc_stop_update() /
      ext4_fc_start_ineligible() / ext4_fc_stop_ineligible() These
      functions are useful for co-ordinating inode updates with
      commits.

(B) Main commit Path

    This part consists of functions to convert updates tracked in
    in-memory data structures into on-disk commits. Function
    ext4_fc_commit() is the main entry point to commit path.

This patch adds main fast commit commit path handlers. The overall
patch can be divided into two inter-related parts:

(A) Metadata updates tracking

    This part consists of helper functions to track changes that need
    to be committed during a commit operation. These updates are
    maintained by Ext4 in different in-memory queues. Following are
    the APIs and their short description that are implemented in this
    patch:

    - ext4_fc_track_link/unlink/creat() - Track unlink. link and creat
      operations
    - ext4_fc_track_range() - Track changed logical block offsets
      inodes
    - ext4_fc_track_inode() - Track inodes
    - ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() - Mark file system fast commit
      ineligible()
    - ext4_fc_start_update() / ext4_fc_stop_update() /
      ext4_fc_start_ineligible() / ext4_fc_stop_ineligible() These
      functions are useful for co-ordinating inode updates with
      commits.

(B) Main commit Path

    This part consists of functions to convert updates tracked in
    in-memory data structures into on-disk commits. Function
    ext4_fc_commit() is the main entry point to commit path.
