The estimate of necessary transaction credits in ext4_flex_group_add()
is too pessimistic. It reserves credit for sb, resize inode, and resize
inode dindirect block for each group added in a flex group although they
are always the same block and thus it is enough to account them only
once. Also the number of modified GDT block is overestimated since we
fit EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb) descriptors in one block.

Make the estimation more precise. That reduces number of requested
credits enough that we can grow 20 MB filesystem (which has 1 MB
journal, 79 reserved GDT blocks, and flex group size 16 by default).

fallocate() checks that the file is extent-based and returns
EOPNOTSUPP in case is not. Other tasks can convert from and to
indirect and extent so it's safe to check only after grabbing
the inode mutex.

<id>d2dc317d564a46dfc683978a2e5a4f91434e9711</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently it is possible to lose whole file system block worth of data
when we hit the specific interaction with unwritten and delayed extents
in status extent tree.

The problem is that when we insert delayed extent into extent status
tree the only way to get rid of it is when we write out delayed buffer.
However there is a limitation in the extent status tree implementation
so that when inserting unwritten extent should there be even a single
delayed block the whole unwritten extent would be marked as delayed.

At this point, there is no way to get rid of the delayed extents,
because there are no delayed buffers to write out. So when a we write
into said unwritten extent we will convert it to written, but it still
remains delayed.

When we try to write into that block later ext4_da_map_blocks() will set
the buffer new and delayed and map it to invalid block which causes
the rest of the block to be zeroed loosing already written data.

For now we can fix this by simply not allowing to set delayed status on
written extent in the extent status tree. Also add WARN_ON() to make
sure that we notice if this happens in the future.

This problem can be easily reproduced by running the following xfs_io.

xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xaa 4096 2048" \
          -c "falloc 0 131072" \
          -c "pwrite -S 0xbb 65536 2048" \
          -c "fsync" /mnt/test/fff

echo 3 &gt; /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
xfs_io -c "pwrite -S 0xdd 67584 2048" /mnt/test/fff

This can be theoretically also reproduced by at random by running fsx,
but it's not very reliable, though on machines with bigger page size
(like ppc) this can be seen more often (especially xfstest generic/127)

ext4.h. They were duplicated from commit 3edc18d and commit f542fb.

This patch adds a tristate EXT4_ENCRYPTION to do the selections
for EXT4_FS_ENCRYPTION because selecting from a bool causes all
the selected options to be built-in, even if EXT4 itself is a
module.

<title>ext4 crypto: add padding to filenames before encrypting</title>

This obscures the length of the filenames, to decrease the amount of
information leakage.  By default, we pad the filenames to the next 4
byte boundaries.  This costs nothing, since the directory entries are
aligned to 4 byte boundaries anyway.  Filenames can also be padded to
8, 16, or 32 bytes, which will consume more directory space.
