In most cases when an error is returned from a function 'ret' is simply
assigned to 'err'. There is only one case where walk_up_reloc_tree can
return a positive value - in this case the code breaks from the loop and
ret is going to get its return value from btrfs_cow_block - either 0 or
negative. This retains the old logic of how 'err' used to be set at
this call site.

Use only a single 'ret' to control whether we should abort the
transaction or not. That's fine, because if we abort a transaction then
btrfs_end_transaction will return the same value as passed to
btrfs_abort_transaction. No semantic changes.

When we are attempting to start writeback for an existing extent in NOCOW
mode, at run_delalloc_nocow(), we must check if the extent is shared, and
if it is, fallback to a COW write. However we do such check while still
holding a read lock on the leaf that contains the file extent item, and
that check, the call to btrfs_cross_ref_exist(), can take some time
because:
1) It needs to do a search on the extent tree, which obviously takes some
time, specially if delayed references are being run at the moment, as
we can block when trying to lock currently write locked btree nodes;
2) It needs to check the delayed references for any existing reference
for our data extent, this requires acquiring the delayed references'
spinlock and maybe block on the mutex of a delayed reference head in the
case where there is a delayed reference for our data extent, in the
worst case it makes us release the path on the extent tree and retry
the whole process again (going back to step 1).
There are other operations we do while holding the leaf locked that can
take some significant time as well (specially all together):
* btrfs_extent_readonly() - to check if the block group containing the
extent is currently in RO mode. This requires taking a spinlock and
searching for the block group in a rbtree that can be big on large
filesystems;
* csum_exist_in_range() - to search if there are any checksums in the
csum tree for the extent. Like before, this can take some time if we are
in a filesystem that has both COW and NOCOW files, in which case the
csum tree is not empty;
* btrfs_inc_nocow_writers() - increment the number of nocow writers in the
block group that contains the data extent. Needs to acquire a spinlock
and search for the block group in a rbtree that can be big on large
filesystems.
So just unlock the leaf (release the path) before doing all those checks,
since we do not need it anymore. In case we can not do a NOCOW write for
the extent, due to any of those checks failing, and the writeback range
goes beyond that extents' length, we will do another btree search for the
next file extent item.

The tree checker is called many times as it verifies metadata at
read/write time. The checks follow a simple pattern:
if (error_condition) {
report_error();
return -EUCLEAN;
}
All the error reporting functions are annotated as __cold that is
supposed to hint the compiler to move the statement block out of the hot
path. This does not seem to happen that often.
As the error condition is expected to be false almost always, we can
annotate it with 'unlikely' as this satisfies one of the few use cases
for the annotation. The expected outcome is a stronger hint to compiler
to reorder the checks
test
jump to exit
test

btrfs_check_chunk_valid, check_root_item or check_leaf.

In alloc_extent_buffer(), after we got a page from btree inode, we check
if that page has private pointer attached.
If attached, we check if the existing extent buffer has proper refs.
If not (the eb is being freed), we will detach that private eb pointer.
The point here is, we are detaching that eb pointer by calling:
- ClearPagePrivate()
- put_page()
The put_page() here is especially confusing, as it's decreasing the ref
from attach_page_private(). Without knowing that, it looks like the
put_page() is for the find_or_create_page() call, confusing the reader.
Since we're always modifying page private with attach_page_private() and
detach_page_private(), the only open-coded detach_page_private() here is
really confusing.
Fix it by calling detach_page_private().

In btrfs_lookup_bio_sums() if the bio is pretty large, we want to
start readahead in the csum tree.
However the threshold is an immediate number, (PAGE_SIZE * 8), from the
initial btrfs merge.
The meaning of the value is pretty hard to guess, especially when the
immediate number is from the times when 4K sectorsize was the default
and only CRC32C was supported.
For the most common btrfs setup, CRC32 csum and 4K sectorsize,
it means just 32K read would kick readahead, while the csum itself is
only 32 bytes in size.
Now let's be more reasonable by taking both csum size and node size into
consideration.
If the csum size for the bio is larger than one leaf, then we kick the
readahead. This means for current default btrfs, the threshold will be
16M.
This change should not change performance observably, thus this is
mostly a readability enhancement.

This is currently fine, since for btree io tree, it only utilizes
EXTENT_LOCK bit. But this could be a problem for later subpage support,
which will utilize extra io tree bit to represent additional info.
This patch will just convert that clear_extent_bit() to
unlock_extent_cached().
For current code since only EXTENT_LOCKED bit is utilized, this doesn't

In end_bio_extent_readpage() we had a strange dance around
extent_start/extent_len.
Hidden behind the strange dance is, it's just calling
endio_readpage_release_extent() on each bvec range.
Here is an example to explain the original work flow:
Bio is for inode 257, containing 2 pages, for range [1M, 1M+8K)
end_bio_extent_extent_readpage() entered
|- extent_start = 0;
|- extent_end = 0;
|- bio_for_each_segment_all() {
| |- /* Got the 1st bvec */
| |- start = SZ_1M;
| |- end = SZ_1M + SZ_4K - 1;
| |- update = 1;
| |- if (extent_len == 0) {
| | |- extent_start = start; /* SZ_1M */
| | |- extent_len = end + 1 - start; /* SZ_1M */
| | }
| |
| |- /* Got the 2nd bvec */
| |- start = SZ_1M + 4K;
| |- end = SZ_1M + 4K - 1;
| |- update = 1;
| |- if (extent_start + extent_len == start) {
| | |- extent_len += end + 1 - start; /* SZ_8K */
| | }
| } /* All bio vec iterated */
|
|- if (extent_len) {
|- endio_readpage_release_extent(tree, extent_start, extent_len,
update);
/* extent_start == SZ_1M, extent_len == SZ_8K, uptodate = 1 */
As the above flow shows, the existing code in end_bio_extent_readpage()
is accumulates extent_start/extent_len, and when the contiguous range
stops, calls endio_readpage_release_extent() for the range.
However current behavior has something not really considered:
- The inode can change
For bio, its pages don't need to have contiguous page_offset.
This means, even pages from different inodes can be packed into one
bio.
- bvec cross page boundary
There is a feature called multi-page bvec, where bvec->bv_len can go
beyond bvec->bv_page boundary.
- Poor readability
This patch will address the problem:
- Introduce a proper structure, processed_extent, to record processed
extent range
- Integrate inode/start/end/uptodate check into
endio_readpage_release_extent()
- Add more comment on each step.
This should greatly improve the readability, now in
end_bio_extent_readpage() there are only two
endio_readpage_release_extent() calls.
- Add inode check for contiguity
Now we also ensure the inode is the same one before checking if the
range is contiguous.

In extent-io-test, there are two invalid tests:
- Invalid nodesize for test_eb_bitmaps()
Instead of the sectorsize and nodesize combination passed in, we're
always using hand-crafted nodesize, e.g:
len = (sectorsize < BTRFS_MAX_METADATA_BLOCKSIZE)
? sectorsize * 4 : sectorsize;
In above case, if we have 32K page size, then we will get a length of
128K, which is beyond max node size, and obviously invalid.
The common page size goes up to 64K so we haven't hit that
- Invalid extent buffer bytenr
For 64K page size, the only combination we're going to test is
sectorsize = nodesize = 64K.
However, in that case we will try to test an eb which bytenr is not
sectorsize aligned:
/* Do it over again with an extent buffer which isn't page-aligned. */
eb = __alloc_dummy_extent_buffer(fs_info, nodesize / 2, len);
Sector alignment is a hard requirement for any sector size.
The only exception is superblock. But anything else should follow
sector size alignment.
This is definitely an invalid test case.
This patch will fix both problems by:
- Honor the sectorsize/nodesize combination
Now we won't bother to hand-craft the length and use it as nodesize.
- Use sectorsize as the 2nd run extent buffer start
This would test the case where extent buffer is aligned to sectorsize
but not always aligned to nodesize.
Please note that, later subpage related cleanup will reduce
extent_buffer::pages[] to exactly what we need, making the sector
unaligned extent buffer operations cause problems.
Since only extent_io self tests utilize this, this patch is required for
all later cleanup/refactoring.

At inode.c:cow_file_range_inline(), after we insert the inline extent
in the fs/subvolume btree, we call btrfs_drop_extent_cache() to drop
all extent maps in the file range, however that is not necessary because
we have already done it in the call to btrfs_drop_extents(), which calls
btrfs_drop_extent_cache() for us, and since at this point we have the file
range locked in the inode's iotree (we are in the writeback path), we know
no other task can come in and read stale file extent items or find none
and therefore create either stale extent maps or an extent map that
represents a hole.
So just remove that unnecessary call to btrfs_drop_extent_cache(), as it's
doing nothing and only wasting time. This call has been around since 2008,
introduced in commit c8b978188c ("Btrfs: Add zlib compression support"),
but even back then it seems it was not necessary, since we had the range
locked in the inode's iotree and the call to btrfs_drop_extents() already
used to always call btrfs_drop_extent_cache().

When joining a log transaction we acquire the root's log mutex, then
increment the root's log batch and log writers counters while holding
the mutex. However we don't need to increment the log batch there,
because we are holding the mutex and incremented the log writers counter
as well, so any other task trying to sync log will wait for the current
task to finish its logging and still achieve the desired log batching.
Since the log batch counter is an atomic counter and is incremented twice
at the very beginning of the fsync callback (btrfs_sync_file()), once
before flushing delalloc and once again after waiting for writeback to
complete, eliminating its increment when joining the log transaction
may provide some performance gains in case we have multiple concurrent
tasks doing fsyncs against different files in the same subvolume, as it
reduces contention on the atomic (locking the cacheline and bouncing it).
When testing fio with 32 jobs, on a 8 cores VM, doing fsyncs against
different files of the same subvolume, on top of a zram device, I could
consistently see gains (higher throughput) between 1% to 2%, which is a
very low value and possibly hard to be observed with a real device (I
couldn't observe consistent gains with my low/mid end NVMe device).
So this change is mostly motivated to just simplify the logic, as updating
the log batch counter is only relevant when an fsync starts and while not
holding the root's log mutex.

Every time we log an inode we lookup in the fs/subvol tree for xattrs and
if we have any, log them into the log tree. However it is very common to
have inodes without any xattrs, so doing the search wastes times, but more
importantly it adds contention on the fs/subvol tree locks, either making
the logging code block and wait for tree locks or making the logging code
making other concurrent operations block and wait.
The most typical use cases where xattrs are used are when capabilities or
ACLs are defined for an inode, or when SELinux is enabled.
This change makes the logging code detect when an inode does not have
xattrs and skip the xattrs search the next time the inode is logged,
unless the inode is evicted and loaded again or a xattr is added to the
inode. Therefore skipping the search for xattrs on inodes that don't ever
have xattrs and are fsynced with some frequency.

There are only 2 direct calls to set_extent_bit outside of extent-io -
in btrfs_find_new_delalloc_bytes and btrfs_truncate_block, the rest are
thin wrappers around __set_extent_bit. This adds unnecessary indirection
and just makes it more annoying when looking at the various extent bit
manipulation functions. This patch renames __set_extent_bit to
set_extent_bit effectively removing a level of indirection. No
functional changes.

This happens because btrfs_next_old_leaf searches down to our current
key, and then walks up the path until we can move to the next slot, and
then reads back down the path so we get the next leaf.
However it doesn't unlock any lower levels until it replaces them with
the new extent buffer. This is technically fine, but of course causes
lockdep to complain, because we could be holding locks on lower levels
while locking upper levels.
Fix this by dropping all nodes below the level that we use as our new
starting point before we start reading back down the path. This also
allows us to drop the nested/recursive locking magic, because we're no
longer locking two nodes at the same level anymore.

Commit 343694eee8d8 ("btrfs: switch seed device to list api"), missed to
check if the parameter seed is true in the function btrfs_find_device().
This tells it whether to traverse the seed device list or not.
After this commit, the argument is unused and can be removed.
In device_list_add() it's not necessary because fs_devices always points
to the device's fs_devices. So with the devid+uuid matching, it will
find the right device and return, thus not needing to traverse seed
devices.

Drop the condition in verify_one_dev_extent,
btrfs_device::disk_total_bytes is set even for a seed device. The
comment is wrong, the size is properly set when cloning the device.
Commit 1b3922a8bc ("btrfs: Use real device structure to verify
dev extent") introduced it but it's unclear why the total_disk_bytes
was 0.
Theoretically, all devices (including missing and seed) marked with the
BTRFS_DEV_STATE_IN_FS_METADATA flag gets the total_disk_bytes updated at
fill_device_from_item():
open_ctree()
btrfs_read_chunk_tree()
read_one_dev()
open_seed_device()
fill_device_from_item()
Even if verify_one_dev_extent() reports total_disk_bytes == 0, then its
a bug to be fixed somewhere else and not in verify_one_dev_extent() as
it's just a messenger. It is never expected that a total_disk_bytes
shall be zero.
The function fill_device_from_item() does the job of reading it from the
item and updating btrfs_device::disk_total_bytes. So both the missing
device and the seed devices do have their disk_total_bytes updated.
btrfs_find_device can also return a device from fs_info->seed_list
because it searches it as well.
Furthermore, while removing the device if there is a power loss, we
could have a device with its total_bytes = 0, that's still valid.
Instead, introduce a check against maximum block device size in
read_one_dev().

There are several occasions where we do not update the inode's number of
used bytes atomically, resulting in a concurrent stat(2) syscall to report
a value of used blocks that does not correspond to a valid value, that is,
a value that does not match neither what we had before the operation nor
what we get after the operation completes.
In extreme cases it can result in stat(2) reporting zero used blocks, which
can cause problems for some userspace tools where they can consider a file
with a non-zero size and zero used blocks as completely sparse and skip
reading data, as reported/discussed a long time ago in some threads like
the following:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2016-07/msg00001.html
The cases where this can happen are the following:
-> Case 1
If we do a write (buffered or direct IO) against a file region for which
there is already an allocated extent (or multiple extents), then we have a
short time window where we can report a number of used blocks to stat(2)
that does not take into account the file region being overwritten. This
short time window happens when completing the ordered extent(s).
This happens because when we drop the extents in the write range we
decrement the inode's number of bytes and later on when we insert the new
extent(s) we increment the number of bytes in the inode, resulting in a
short time window where a stat(2) syscall can get an incorrect number of
used blocks.
If we do writes that overwrite an entire file, then we have a short time
window where we report 0 used blocks to stat(2).

$ cat reproducer-1.sh
#!/bin/bash
MNT=/mnt/sdi
DEV=/dev/sdi
stat_loop()
{
trap "wait; exit" SIGTERM
local filepath=$1
local expected=$2
local got
while :; do
got=$(stat -c %b $filepath)
if [ $got -ne $expected ]; then
echo -n "ERROR: unexpected used blocks"
echo " (got: $got expected: $expected)"

done

# Create a process to keep calling stat(2) on the file and see if the
# reported number of blocks used (disk space used) changes, it should

(...)
Note that since this is a short time window where the race can happen, the
reproducer may not be able to always trigger the bug in one run, or it may
trigger it multiple times.
-> Case 2
If we do a buffered write against a file region that does not have any
allocated extents, like a hole or beyond EOF, then during ordered extent
completion we have a short time window where a concurrent stat(2) syscall
can report a number of used blocks that does not correspond to the value
before or after the write operation, a value that is actually larger than
the value after the write completes.
This happens because once we start a buffered write into an unallocated
file range we increment the inode's 'new_delalloc_bytes', to make sure
any stat(2) call gets a correct used blocks value before delalloc is
flushed and completes. However at ordered extent completion, after we
inserted the new extent, we increment the inode's number of bytes used
with the size of the new extent, and only later, when clearing the range
in the inode's iotree, we decrement the inode's 'new_delalloc_bytes'
counter with the size of the extent. So this results in a short time
window where a concurrent stat(2) syscall can report a number of used
blocks that accounts for the new extent twice.
Example reproducer:
$ cat reproducer-2.sh
#!/bin/bash

(...)
Note that since this is a short time window where the race can happen, the
reproducer may not be able to always trigger the bug in one run, or it may
trigger it multiple times.
-> Case 3
Another case where such problems happen is during other operations that
replace extents in a file range with other extents. Those operations are
extent cloning, deduplication and fallocate's zero range operation.
The cause of the problem is similar to the first case. When we drop the
extents from a range, we decrement the inode's number of bytes, and later
on, after inserting the new extents we increment it. Since this is not
done atomically, a concurrent stat(2) call can see and return a number of
used blocks that is smaller than it should be, does not match the number
of used blocks before or after the clone/deduplication/zero operation.
Like for the first case, when doing a clone, deduplication or zero range
operation against an entire file, we end up having a time window where we
can report 0 used blocks to a stat(2) call.
Example reproducer:
$ cat reproducer-3.sh
#!/bin/bash
MNT=/mnt/sdi
DEV=/dev/sdi
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV > /dev/null
# mkfs.xfs -f -m reflink=1 $DEV > /dev/null
mount $DEV $MNT
extent_size=$((64 * 1024))
num_extents=16384
file_size=$(($extent_size * $num_extents))
# File foo has many small extents.
xfs_io -f -s -c "pwrite -S 0xab -b $extent_size 0 $file_size" $MNT/foo \
> /dev/null
# File bar has much less extents and has exactly the same data as foo.
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xab 0 $file_size" $MNT/bar > /dev/null
expected=$(stat -c %b $MNT/foo)
# Now deduplicate bar into foo. While the deduplication is in progres,
# the number of used blocks/file size reported by stat should not change
xfs_io -c "dedupe $MNT/bar 0 0 $file_size" $MNT/foo > /dev/null &
dedupe_pid=$!
while [ -n "$(ps -p $dedupe_pid -o pid=)" ]; do
used=$(stat -c %b $MNT/foo)
if [ $used -ne $expected ]; then
echo "Unexpected blocks used: $used (expected: $expected)"
fi
done

Unexpected blocks used: 2097024 (expected: 2097152)

(...)
Note that since this is a short time window where the race can happen, the
reproducer may not be able to always trigger the bug in one run, or it may
trigger it multiple times.
So fix this by:
1) Making btrfs_drop_extents() not decrement the VFS inode's number of
bytes, and instead return the number of bytes;
2) Making any code that drops extents and adds new extents update the
inode's number of bytes atomically, while holding the btrfs inode's
spinlock, which is also used by the stat(2) callback to get the inode's
number of bytes;
3) For ranges in the inode's iotree that are marked as 'delalloc new',
corresponding to previously unallocated ranges, increment the inode's
number of bytes when clearing the 'delalloc new' bit from the range,
in the same critical section that decrements the inode's
'new_delalloc_bytes' counter, delimited by the btrfs inode's spinlock.
An alternative would be to have btrfs_getattr() wait for any IO (ordered
extents in progress) and locking the whole range (0 to (u64)-1) while it
it computes the number of blocks used. But that would mean blocking
stat(2), which is a very used syscall and expected to be fast, waiting
for writes, clone/dedupe, fallocate, page reads, fiemap, etc.

When defragmenting we skip ranges that have holes or inline extents, so that
we don't do unnecessary IO and waste space. We do this check when calling
should_defrag_range() at btrfs_defrag_file(). However we do it without
holding the inode's lock. The reason we do it like this is to avoid
blocking other tasks for too long, that possibly want to operate on other
file ranges, since after the call to should_defrag_range() and before
locking the inode, we trigger a synchronous page cache readahead. However
before we were able to lock the inode, some other task might have punched
a hole in our range, or we may now have an inline extent there, in which
case we should not set the range for defrag anymore since that would cause
unnecessary IO and make us waste space (i.e. allocating extents to contain
zeros for a hole).
So after we locked the inode and the range in the iotree, check again if
we have holes or an inline extent, and if we do, just skip the range.
I hit this while testing my next patch that fixes races when updating an
inode's number of bytes (subject "btrfs: update the number of bytes used
by an inode atomically"), and it depends on this change in order to work
correctly. Alternatively I could rework that other patch to detect holes
and flag their range with the 'new delalloc' bit, but this itself fixes
an efficiency problem due a race that from a functional point of view is
not harmful (it could be triggered with btrfs/062 from fstests).

There are many arguments for __btrfs_drop_extents() and its wrapper
btrfs_drop_extents(), which makes it hard to add more arguments to it and
requires changing every caller. I have added a couple myself back in 2014
commit 1acae57b16 ("Btrfs: faster file extent item replace operations")
and therefore know firsthand that it is a bit cumbersome to add additional
arguments to these functions.
Since I will need to add more arguments in a subsequent bug fix, this
change is preparatory work and adds a data structure that holds all the
arguments, for both input and output, that are passed to this function,
with some comments in the structure's definition mentioning what each
field is and how it relates to other fields.
Callers of this function need only to zero out the content of the
structure and setup only the fields they need. This also removes the
need to have both __btrfs_drop_extents() and btrfs_drop_extents(), so
now we have a single function named btrfs_drop_extents() that takes a
pointer to this new data structure (struct btrfs_drop_extents_args).
