18d585f0f2 ocfs2: make append_dio an incompat feature
It turns out that making this feature ro_compat isn't quite enough to
prevent accidental corruption on mount from older kernels.  Ocfs2 (like
other file systems) will process orphaned inodes even when the user mounts
in 'ro' mode.  So for the case of a filesystem not knowing the append_dio
feature, mounting the filesystem could result in orphaned-for-dio files
being deleted, which we clearly don't want.

So instead, turn this into an incompat flag.

Btw, this is kind of my fault - initially I asked that we add a flag to
cover the feature and even suggested that we use an ro flag.  It wasn't
until I was looking through our commits for v4.0-rc1 that I realized we
actually want this to be incompat.

Add functions to add inode to orphan dir and remove inode in orphan dir.

98f486f23b ocfs2: Add an incompat feature flag OCFS2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_CLUSTERINFO
OCFS2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_CLUSTERINFO allows us to use sb->s_cluster_info for
both userspace and o2cb cluster stacks. It also allows us to extend cluster

This patch also adds stackflags to sb->s_clusterinfo. It also introduces a
clusterinfo flag OCFS2_CLUSTER_O2CB_GLOBAL_HEARTBEAT to denote the enabled
global heartbeat mode.

This incompat flag can be set/cleared using tunefs.ocfs2 --fs-features. The
clusterinfo flag is set/cleared using tunefs.ocfs2 --update-cluster-stack.

b4d693fcc5 ocfs2: Cache system inodes of other slots.
Durring orphan scan, if we are slot 0, and we are replaying
orphan_dir:0001, the general process is that for every file
in this dir:
1. we will iget orphan_dir:0001, since there is no inode for it.
   we will have to create an inode and read it from the disk.
2. do the normal work, such as delete_inode and remove it from
   the dir if it is allowed.
3. call iput orphan_dir:0001 when we are done. In this case,
   since we have no dcache for this inode, i_count will
   reach 0, and VFS will have to call clear_inode and in
   ocfs2_clear_inode we will checkpoint the inode which will let
   ocfs2_cmt and journald begin to work.
4. We loop back to 1 for the next file.

So you see, actually for every deleted file, we have to read the
orphan dir from the disk and checkpoint the journal. It is very
time consuming and cause a lot of journal checkpoint I/O.
A better solution is that we can have another reference for these
inodes in ocfs2_super. So if there is no other race among
nodes(which will let dlmglue to checkpoint the inode), for step 3,
clear_inode won't be called and for step 1, we may only need to
read the inode for the 1st time. This is a big win for us.

So this patch will try to cache system inodes of other slots so
that we will have one more reference for these inodes and avoid
the extra inode read and journal checkpoint.

6b82021b9e ocfs2: increase the default size of local alloc windows
I have observed that the current size of 8M gives us pretty poor
fragmentation on multi-threaded workloads which do lots of writes.

Generally, I can increase the size of local alloc windows and observe a
marked decrease in fragmentation, even up and beyond window sizes of 512
megabytes. This makes sense for a couple reasons - larger local alloc means
more room for reservation windows. On multi-node workloads the larger local
alloc helps as well because we don't have to do window slides as often.

Also, I removed the OCFS2_DEFAULT_LOCAL_ALLOC_SIZE constant as it is no
longer used and the comment above it was out of date.

To test fragmentation, I used a workload which launched 4 threads that did
4k writes into a series of about 140 alternating files.

With resv_level=2, and a 4k/4k file system I observed the following average
fragmentation for various localalloc= parameters:

localalloc=	avg. fragmentation
	8		48
	32		16
	64		10
	120		7

On larger cluster sizes, the difference is more dramatic.

The new default size top out at 256M, which we'll only get for cluster
sizes of 32K and above.

9df5778ece Ocfs2: Move ocfs2 ioctl definitions from ocfs2_fs.h to newly added ocfs2_ioctl.h
Currently we were adding ioctl cmds/structures for ocfs2 into ocfs2_fs.h
which was used for define ocfs2 on-disk layout. That sounds a little bit
confusing, and it may be quickly polluted espcially when growing the

As a result, such OCFS2 IOCs do need to be placed somewhere other than
ocfs2_fs.h, a separated ocfs2_ioctl.h will be added to store such ioctl
structures and definitions which could also be used from userspace to
invoke ioctls call.

9b7895efac ocfs2: Add a name indexed b-tree to directory inodes
This patch makes use of Ocfs2's flexible btree code to add an additional
tree to directory inodes. The new tree stores an array of small,
fixed-length records in each leaf block. Each record stores a hash value,
and pointer to a block in the traditional (unindexed) directory tree where a
dirent with the given name hash resides. Lookup exclusively uses this tree
to find dirents, thus providing us with constant time name lookups.

Some of the hashing code was copied from ext3. Unfortunately, it has lots of
unfixed checkpatch errors. I left that as-is so that tracking changes would
be easier.

9e33d69f55 ocfs2: Implementation of local and global quota file handling
For each quota type each node has local quota file. In this file it stores
changes users have made to disk usage via this node. Once in a while this
information is synced to global file (and thus with other nodes) so that
limits enforcement at least aproximately works.

Global quota files contain all the information about usage and limits. It's
mostly handled by the generic VFS code (which implements a trie of structures
inside a quota file). We only have to provide functions to convert structures
from on-disk format to in-memory one. We also have to provide wrappers for
various quota functions starting transactions and acquiring necessary cluster
locks before the actual IO is really started.

0c044f0b24 ocfs2: Add xattr bucket iteration for large numbers of EAs
Ocfs2 breaks up xattr index tree leaves into 4k regions, called buckets.
Attributes are stored within a given bucket, depending on hash value.

After a discussion with Mark, we decided that the per-bucket index
(xe_entry[]) would only exist in the 1st block of a bucket. Likewise,
name/value pairs will not straddle more than one block. This allows the
majority of operations to work directly on the buffer heads in a leaf block.

This patch adds code to iterate the buckets in an EA. A new abstration of
ocfs2_xattr_bucket is added. It records the bhs in this bucket and
ocfs2_xattr_header. This keeps the code neat, improving readibility.

cf1d6c763f ocfs2: Add extended attribute support
This patch implements storing extended attributes both in inode or a single
external block. We only store EA's in-inode when blocksize > 512 or that
inode block has free space for it. When an EA's value is larger than 80
bytes, we will store the value via b-tree outside inode or block.

fdd77704a8 ocfs2: reserve inline space for extended attribute
Add the structures and helper functions we want for handling inline extended
attributes. We also update the inline-data handlers so that they properly
function in the event that we have both inline data and inline attributes
sharing an inode block.

5a7bc8eb29 ocfs2: Add the basic xattr disk layout in ocfs2_fs.h
Ocfs2 uses a very flexible structure for storing extended attributes on
disk. Small amount of attributes are stored directly in the inode block - up
to 256 bytes worth. If that fills up, attributes are also stored in an
external block, linked to from the inode block. That block can in turn
expand to a btree, capable of storing large numbers of attributes.

Individual attribute values are stored inline if they're small enough
(currently about 80 bytes, this can be changed though), and otherwise are
expanded to a btree. The theoretical limit to the size of an individual
attribute is about the same as an inode, though the kernel's upper bound on
the size of an attributes data is far smaller.
