Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
"The usual collection of bug fixes and optimizations. Perhaps of
greatest note is a speed up for parallel, non-allocating DIO writes,
since we no longer take the i_mutex lock in that case.
For bug fixes, we fix an incorrect overhead calculation which caused
slightly incorrect results for df(1) and statfs(2). We also fixed
bugs in the metadata checksum feature."

Pull the big VFS changes from Al Viro:
"This one is *big* and changes quite a few things around VFS. What's in there:
- the first of two really major architecture changes - death to open
intents.
The former is finally there; it was very long in making, but with
Miklos getting through really hard and messy final push in
fs/namei.c, we finally have it. Unlike his variant, this one
doesn't introduce struct opendata; what we have instead is
->atomic_open() taking preallocated struct file * and passing
everything via its fields.
Instead of returning struct file *, it returns -E... on error, 0
on success and 1 in "deal with it yourself" case (e.g. symlink
found on server, etc.).
See comments before fs/namei.c:atomic_open(). That made a lot of
goodies finally possible and quite a few are in that pile:
->lookup(), ->d_revalidate() and ->create() do not get struct
nameidata * anymore; ->lookup() and ->d_revalidate() get lookup
flags instead, ->create() gets "do we want it exclusive" flag.
With the introduction of new helper (kern_path_locked()) we are rid
of all struct nameidata instances outside of fs/namei.c; it's still
visible in namei.h, but not for long. Come the next cycle,
declaration will move either to fs/internal.h or to fs/namei.c
itself. [me, miklos, hch]
- The second major change: behaviour of final fput(). Now we have
__fput() done without any locks held by caller *and* not from deep
in call stack.
That obviously lifts a lot of constraints on the locking in there.
Moreover, it's legal now to call fput() from atomic contexts (which
has immediately simplified life for aio.c). We also don't need
anti-recursion logics in __scm_destroy() anymore.
There is a price, though - the damn thing has become partially
asynchronous. For fput() from normal process we are guaranteed
that pending __fput() will be done before the caller returns to
userland, exits or gets stopped for ptrace.
For kernel threads and atomic contexts it's done via
schedule_work(), so theoretically we might need a way to make sure
it's finished; so far only one such place had been found, but there
might be more.
There's flush_delayed_fput() (do all pending __fput()) and there's
__fput_sync() (fput() analog doing __fput() immediately). I hope
we won't need them often; see warnings in fs/file_table.c for
details. [me, based on task_work series from Oleg merged last
cycle]
- sync series from Jan
- large part of "death to sync_supers()" work from Artem; the only
bits missing here are exofs and ext4 ones. As far as I understand,
those are going via the exofs and ext4 trees resp.; once they are
in, we can put ->write_super() to the rest, along with the thread
calling it.
- preparatory bits from unionmount series (from dhowells).
- assorted cleanups and fixes all over the place, as usual.
This is not the last pile for this cycle; there's at least jlayton's
ESTALE work and fsfreeze series (the latter - in dire need of fixes,
so I'm not sure it'll make the cut this cycle). I'll probably throw
symlink/hardlink restrictions stuff from Kees into the next pile, too.
Plus there's a lot of misc patches I hadn't thrown into that one -
it's large enough as it is..."

The function ext4_calc_metadata_amount() has side effects, although
it's not obvious from its function name. So if we fail to claim
space, regardless of whether we retry to claim the space again, or
return an error, we need to undo these side effects.
Otherwise we can end up incorrectly calculating the number of metadata
blocks needed for the operation, which was responsible for an xfstests
failure for test #271 when using an ext2 file system with delalloc
enabled.

If we hit a condition where we have allocated metadata blocks that
were not appropriately reserved, we risk underflow of
ei->i_reserved_meta_blocks. In turn, this can throw
sbi->s_dirtyclusters_counter significantly out of whack and undermine
the nondelalloc fallback logic in ext4_nonda_switch(). Warn if this
occurs and set i_allocated_meta_blocks to avoid this problem.
This condition is reproduced by xfstests 270 against ext2 with
delalloc enabled:
Mar 28 08:58:02 localhost kernel: [ 171.526344] EXT4-fs (loop1): delayed block allocation failed for inode 14 at logical offset 64486 with max blocks 64 with error -28
Mar 28 08:58:02 localhost kernel: [ 171.526346] EXT4-fs (loop1): This should not happen!! Data will be lost
270 ultimately fails with an inconsistent filesystem and requires an
fsck to repair. The cause of the error is an underflow in
ext4_da_update_reserve_space() due to an unreserved meta block
allocation.

Whether to continue removing extents or not is decided by the return
value of function ext4_ext_more_to_rm() which checks 2 conditions:
a) if there are no more indexes to process.
b) if the number of entries are decreased in the header of "depth -1".
In case of hole punch, if the last block to be removed is not part of
the last extent index than this index will not be deleted, hence the
number of valid entries in the extent header of "depth - 1" will
remain as it is and ext4_ext_more_to_rm will return 0 although the
required blocks are not yet removed.
This patch fixes the above mentioned problem as instead of removing
the extents from the end of file, it starts removing the blocks from
the particular extent from which removing blocks is actually required
and continue backward until done.

This patch changes the 'ext4_handle_dirty_super()' function which
submits the superblock for I/O in the following cases:
1. When creating the first large file on a file system without
EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_LARGE_FILE feature.
2. When re-sizing the file-system.
3. When creating an xattr on a file-system without the
EXT4_FEATURE_COMPAT_EXT_ATTR feature.
If the file-system has journal enabled, the superblock is written via
the journal. We do not modify this path.
If the file-system has no journal, this function, falls back to just
marking the superblock as dirty using the 's_dirt' superblock
flag. This means that it delays the actual superblock I/O submission
by 5 seconds (default setting). Namely, the 'sync_supers()' kernel
thread will call 'ext4_write_super()' later and will actually submit
the superblock for I/O.
And this is the behavior this patch modifies: we stop using 's_dirt'
and just mark the superblock buffer as dirty right away. Indeed, all 3
cases above are extremely rare and it does not add any value to delay
the I/O submission for them.
Note: 'ext4_handle_dirty_super()' executes
'__ext4_handle_dirty_super()' with 'now = 0'. This patch basically
makes the 'now' argument unneeded and it will be deleted in one of the
next patches.
This patch also removes 's_dirt' condition on the unmount path because
we never set it anymore, so we should not test it.

This patch adds support for quotas as a first class feature in ext4;
which is to say, the quota files are stored in hidden inodes as file
system metadata, instead of as separate files visible in the file system
directory hierarchy.
It is based on the proposal at:
https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Design_For_1st_Class_Quota_in_Ext4
This patch introduces a new feature - EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_QUOTA
which, when turned on, enables quota accounting at mount time
iteself. Also, the quota inodes are stored in two additional superblock
fields. Some changes introduced by this patch that should be pointed
out are:
1) Two new ext4-superblock fields - s_usr_quota_inum and
s_grp_quota_inum for storing the quota inodes in use.
2) Default quota inodes are: inode#3 for tracking userquota and inode#4
for tracking group quota. The superblock fields can be set to use
other inodes as well.
3) If the QUOTA feature and corresponding quota inodes are set in
superblock, the quota usage tracking is turned on at mount time. On
'quotaon' ioctl, the quota limits enforcement is turned
on. 'quotaoff' ioctl turns off only the limits enforcement in this
case.
4) When QUOTA feature is in use, the quota mount options 'quota',
'usrquota', 'grpquota' are ignored by the kernel.
5) mke2fs or tune2fs can be used to set the QUOTA feature and initialize
quota inodes. The default reserved inodes will not be visible to user
as regular files.
6) The quota-tools will need to be modified to support hidden quota
files on ext4. E2fsprogs will also include support for creating and
fixing quota files.
7) Support is only for the new V2 quota file format.

Aligned and overwrite direct I/O can be parallelized. In
ext4_file_dio_write, we first check whether these conditions are
satisfied or not. If so, we take i_data_sem and release i_mutex lock
directly. Meanwhile iocb->private is set to indicate that this is a
dio overwrite, and it will be handled in ext4_ext_direct_IO.

For ext3/4 htree directories, using the vfs llseek function with
SEEK_END goes to i_size like for any other file, but in reality
we want the maximum possible hash value. Recent changes
in ext4 have cut & pasted generic_file_llseek() back into fs/ext4/dir.c,
but replicating this core code seems like a bad idea, especially
since the copy has already diverged from the vfs.
This patch updates generic_file_llseek_size to accept
both a custom maximum offset, and a custom EOF position. With this
in place, ext4_dir_llseek can pass in the appropriate maximum hash
position for both maxsize and eof, and get what it wants.
As far as I know, this does not fix any bugs - nfs in the kernel
doesn't use SEEK_END, and I don't know of any user who does. But
some ext4 folks seem keen on doing the right thing here, and I can't
really argue.
(Patch also fixes up some comments slightly)

Since the moment writes to quota files are using block device page cache and
space for quota structures is reserved at the moment they are first accessed we
have no reason to sync quota before inode writeback. In fact this order is now
only harmful since quota information can easily change during inode writeback
(either because conversion of delayed-allocated extents or simply because of
allocation of new blocks for simple filesystems not using page_mkwrite).
So move syncing of quota information after writeback of inodes into ->sync_fs
method. This way we do not have to use ->quota_sync callback which is primarily
intended for use by quotactl syscall anyway and we get rid of calling
->sync_fs() twice unnecessarily. We skip quota syncing for OCFS2 since it does
proper quota journalling in all cases (unlike ext3, ext4, and reiserfs which
also support legacy non-journalled quotas) and thus there are no dirty quota
structures.

EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_LOCK flag is added to indicate that we don't need
to acquire i_data_sem lock in ext4_map_blocks. Meanwhile, it changes
ext4_get_block() to not start a new journal because when we do a
overwrite dio, there is no any metadata that needs to be modified.
We define a new function called ext4_get_block_write_nolock, which is
used in dio overwrite nolock. In this function, it doesn't try to
acquire i_data_sem lock and doesn't start a new journal as it does a
lookup.

In xattr block operation, we use h_refcount to indicate whether the
xattr block is shared among many inodes. And xattr block csum uses
s_csum_seed if it is shared and i_csum_seed if it belongs to
one inode. But this has a problem. So consider the block is shared
first bewteen inode A and B, and B has some xattr update and CoW
the xattr block. When it updates the *old* xattr block(because
of the h_refcount change) and calls ext4_xattr_release_block, we
has no idea that inode A is the real owner of the *old* xattr
block and we can't use the i_csum_seed of inode A either in xattr
block csum calculation. And I don't think we have an easy way to
find inode A.
So this patch just removes the tricky i_csum_seed and we now uses
s_csum_seed every time for the xattr block csum. The corresponding
patch for the e2fsprogs will be sent in another patch.
This is spotted by xfstests 117.

Currently ext4_mb_load_buddy is called for every group, irrespective
of whether the group info is already in memory, while reading
/proc/fs/ext4/<partition>/mb_groups proc file. For the purpose of
mb_groups proc file, it is unnecessary to load the file group info
from disk if it was loaded in past. These calls to ext4_mb_load_buddy
make reading the mb_groups proc file expensive.
Also, the locks around ext4_get_group_info are not required.
This patch modifies the code to call ext4_mb_load_buddy only if the
group info had never been loaded into memory in past. It also removes
the mb group locking around ext4_get_group_info call.

Ext3 filesystems that are converted to use as many ext4 file system
features as possible will enable uninit_bg to speed up e2fsck times.
These file systems will have a native ext3 layout of inode tables and
block allocation bitmaps (as opposed to ext4's flex_bg layout).
Unfortunately, in these cases, when first allocating a block in an
uninitialized block group, ext4 would incorrectly calculate the number
of free blocks in that block group, and then errorneously report that
the file system was corrupt:
EXT4-fs error (device vdd): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:741: group 30, 32254 clusters in bitmap, 32258 in gd
This problem can be reproduced via:
mke2fs -q -t ext4 -O ^flex_bg /dev/vdd 5g
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /mnt
fallocate -l 4600m /mnt/test
The problem was caused by a bone headed mistake in the check to see if a
particular metadata block was part of the block group.

When truncating a file, we unmap pages from userspace first, as that's
usually more efficient than relying, page by page, on the fallback in
truncate_inode_page() - particularly if the file is mapped many times.
Do the same when punching a hole: 3.4 added truncate_pagecache_range()
to do the unmap and trunc, so use it in ext4_ext_punch_hole(), instead
of calling truncate_inode_pages_range() directly.

We can't have references held on pages in the s_buddy_cache while we are
trying to truncate its pages and put the inode. All the pages must be
gone before we reach clear_inode. This can only be gauranteed if we
can prevent new users from grabbing references to s_buddy_cache's pages.
The original bug can be reproduced and the bug fix can be verified by:
while true; do mount -t ext4 /dev/ram0 /export/hda3/ram0; \
umount /export/hda3/ram0; done &
while true; do cat /proc/fs/ext4/ram0/mb_groups; done

In commit 353eb83c we removed i_state_flags with 64-bit longs, But
when handling the EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS ioctl, we replace i_flags
directly, which trashes the state flags which are stored in the high
32-bits of i_flags on 64-bit platforms. So use the the
ext4_{set,clear}_inode_flags() functions which use atomic bit
manipulation functions instead.

In delayed allocation, i_reserved_data_blocks now indicates
clusters, not blocks. So report it in the right number.
This can be easily exposed by the following command:
echo foo > blah; du -hc blah; sync; du -hc blah

The ext4_error() function is missing a call to save_error_info().
Since this is the function which marks the file system as containing
an error, this oversight (which was introduced in 2.6.36) is quite
significant, and should be backported to older stable kernels with
high urgency.

Make it easy to test whether or not the error handling subsystem in
ext4 is working correctly. This allows us to simulate an ext4_error()
by echoing a string to /sys/fs/ext4/<dev>/trigger_fs_error.

Now when we set the group inode free count, we don't have a proper
group lock so that multiple threads may decrease the inode free
count at the same time. And e2fsck will complain something like:
Free inodes count wrong for group #1 (1, counted=0).
Fix? no
Free inodes count wrong for group #2 (3, counted=0).
Fix? no
Directories count wrong for group #2 (780, counted=779).
Fix? no
Free inodes count wrong for group #3 (2272, counted=2273).
Fix? no
So this patch try to protect it with the ext4_lock_group.
btw, it is found by xfstests test case 269 and the volume is
mkfsed with the parameter
"-O ^resize_inode,^uninit_bg,extent,meta_bg,flex_bg,ext_attr"
and I have run it 100 times and the error in e2fsck doesn't
show up again.

The generic_file_aio_write() function returns ssize_t, and
ext4_file_write() returns a ssize_t, so use a ssize_t to collect the
return value from generic_file_aio_write(). It shouldn't matter since
the VFS read/write paths shouldn't allow a read greater than MAX_INT,
but there was previously a bug in the AIO code paths, and it's best if
we use a consistent type so that the return value from
generic_file_aio_write() can't get truncated.
