Make statx() support reporting direct I/O (DIO) alignment information.
This provides a generic interface for userspace programs to determine
whether a file supports DIO, and if so with what alignment restrictions.
Specifically, STATX_DIOALIGN works on block devices, and on regular
files when their containing filesystem has implemented support.
An interface like this has been requested for years, since the
conditions for when DIO is supported in Linux have gotten increasingly
complex over time. Today, DIO support and alignment requirements can be
affected by various filesystem features such as multi-device support,
data journalling, inline data, encryption, verity, compression,
checkpoint disabling, log-structured mode, etc. Further complicating
things, Linux v6.0 relaxed the traditional rule of DIO needing to be
aligned to the block device's logical block size; now user buffers (but
not file offsets) only need to be aligned to the DMA alignment.
The approach of uplifting the XFS specific ioctl XFS_IOC_DIOINFO was
discarded in favor of creating a clean new interface with statx().

Using rbtree for sorting groups by average fragment size is relatively
expensive (needs rbtree update on every block freeing or allocation) and
leads to wide spreading of allocations because selection of block group
is very sentitive both to changes in free space and amount of blocks
allocated. Furthermore selecting group with the best matching average
fragment size is not necessary anyway, even more so because the
variability of fragment sizes within a group is likely large so average
is not telling much. We just need a group with large enough average
fragment size so that we have high probability of finding large enough
free extent and we don't want average fragment size to be too big so
that we are likely to find free extent only somewhat larger than what we
need.
So instead of maintaing rbtree of groups sorted by fragment size keep
bins (lists) or groups where average fragment size is in the interval
[2^i, 2^(i+1)). This structure requires less updates on block allocation
/ freeing, generally avoids chaotic spreading of allocations into block
groups, and still is able to quickly (even faster that the rbtree)
provide a block group which is likely to have a suitably sized free
space extent.
This patch reduces number of block groups used when untarring archive
with medium sized files (size somewhat above 64k which is default
mballoc limit for avoiding locality group preallocation) to about half
and thus improves write speeds for eMMC flash significantly.

Make the test_dummy_encryption mount option require that the encrypt
feature flag be already enabled on the filesystem, rather than
automatically enabling it. Practically, this means that "-O encrypt"
will need to be included in MKFS_OPTIONS when running xfstests with the
test_dummy_encryption mount option. (ext4/053 also needs an update.)
Moreover, as long as the preconditions for test_dummy_encryption are
being tightened anyway, take the opportunity to start rejecting it when
!CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION rather than ignoring it.
The motivation for requiring the encrypt feature flag is that:
- Having the filesystem auto-enable feature flags is problematic, as it
bypasses the usual sanity checks. The specific issue which came up
recently is that in kernel versions where ext4 supports casefold but
not encrypt+casefold (v5.1 through v5.10), the kernel will happily add
the encrypt flag to a filesystem that has the casefold flag, making it
unmountable -- but only for subsequent mounts, not the initial one.
This confused the casefold support detection in xfstests, causing
generic/556 to fail rather than be skipped.
- The xfstests-bld test runners (kvm-xfstests et al.) already use the
required mkfs flag, so they will not be affected by this change. Only
users of test_dummy_encryption alone will be affected. But, this
option has always been for testing only, so it should be fine to
require that the few users of this option update their test scripts.
- f2fs already requires it (for its equivalent feature flag).

Since the initial introduction of (posix) fallocate back at the turn of
the century, it has been possible to use this syscall to change the
user-visible contents of files. This can happen by extending the file
size during a preallocation, or through any of the newer modes (punch,
zero, collapse, insert range). Because the call can be used to change
file contents, we should treat it like we do any other modification to a
file -- update the mtime, and drop set[ug]id privileges/capabilities.
The VFS function file_modified() does all this for us if pass it a
locked inode, so let's make fallocate drop permissions correctly.

3. task A do some actions and add inode to FC_Q_MAIN fc_q
4. jbd complete transaction n and clear FC_Q_MAIN fc_q
5. task A call fsync
Fast commit will lost the file actions during a full commit.
we should also add updates to staging queue during a full commit.
and in ext4_fc_cleanup(), when reset a inode's fc track range, check
it's i_sync_tid, if it bigger than current transaction tid, do not
rest it, or we will lost the track range.
And EXT4_MF_FC_COMMITTING is not needed anymore, so drop it.

During fast commit replay procedure, we clear inode blocks bitmap in
ext4_ext_clear_bb(), this may cause ext4_mb_new_blocks_simple() allocate
blocks still in use.
Make ext4_fc_record_regions() also record physical disk regions used by
inodes during replay procedure. Then ext4_mb_new_blocks_simple() can
excludes these blocks in use.

Pull dax and libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this is a rework of the dax_operations API after
discovering the obstacles it posed to the work-in-progress DAX+reflink
support for XFS and other copy-on-write filesystem mechanics.
Primarily the need to plumb a block_device through the API to handle
partition offsets was a sticking point and Christoph untangled that
dependency in addition to other cleanups to make landing the
DAX+reflink support easier.
The DAX_PMEM_COMPAT option has been around for 4 years and not only
are distributions shipping userspace that understand the current
configuration API, but some are not even bothering to turn this option
on anymore, so it seems a good time to remove it per the deprecation
schedule. Recall that this was added after the device-dax subsystem
moved from /sys/class/dax to /sys/bus/dax for its sysfs organization.
All recent functionality depends on /sys/bus/dax.
Some other miscellaneous cleanups and reflink prep patches are
included as well.
Summary:
- Simplify the dax_operations API:
- Eliminate bdev_dax_pgoff() in favor of the filesystem
maintaining and applying a partition offset to all its DAX iomap

Implement support for FS_IOC_GETFSLABEL and FS_IOC_SETFSLABEL ioctls for
online reading and setting of file system label.
ext4_ioctl_getlabel() is simple, just get the label from the primary
superblock. This might not be the first sb on the file system if
'sb=' mount option is used.
In ext4_ioctl_setlabel() we update what ext4 currently views as a
primary superblock and then proceed to update backup superblocks. There
are two caveats:
- the primary superblock might not be the first superblock and so it
might not be the one used by userspace tools if read directly
off the disk.
- because the primary superblock might not be the first superblock we
potentialy have to update it as part of backup superblock update.
However the first sb location is a bit more complicated than the rest
so we have to account for that.
The superblock modification is created generic enough so the
infrastructure can be used for other potential superblock modification
operations, such as chaning UUID.
Tested with generic/492 with various configurations. I also checked the
behavior with 'sb=' mount options, including very large file systems
with and without sparse_super/sparse_super2.

Even though the length of the critical section when adding / removing
orphaned inodes was significantly reduced by using orphan file, the
contention of lock protecting orphan file still appears high in profiles
for truncate / unlink intensive workloads with high number of threads.
This patch makes handling of orphan file completely lockless. Also to
reduce conflicts between CPUs different CPUs start searching for empty
slot in orphan file in different blocks.
Performance comparison of locked orphan file handling, lockless orphan
file handling, and completely disabled orphan inode handling
from 80 CPU Xeon Server with 526 GB of RAM, filesystem located on
SAS SSD disk, average of 5 runs:
stress-orphan (microbenchmark truncating files byte-by-byte from N
processes in parallel)

Ext4 orphan inode handling is a bottleneck for workloads which heavily
truncate / unlink small files since it contends on the global
s_orphan_mutex lock (and generally it's difficult to improve scalability
of the ondisk linked list of orphaned inodes).
This patch implements new way of handling orphan inodes. Instead of
linking orphaned inode into a linked list, we store it's inode number in
a new special file which we call "orphan file". Only if there's no more
space in the orphan file (too many inodes are currently orphaned) we
fall back to using old style linked list. Currently we protect
operations in the orphan file with a spinlock for simplicity but even in
this setting we can substantially reduce the length of the critical
section and thus speedup some workloads. In the next patch we improve
this by making orphan handling lockless.
Note that the change is backwards compatible when the filesystem is
clean - the existence of the orphan file is a compat feature, we set
another ro-compat feature indicating orphan file needs scanning for
orphaned inodes when mounting filesystem read-write. This ro-compat
feature gets cleared on unmount / remount read-only.

Move functions for handling orphan inodes into a new file
fs/ext4/orphan.c to have them in one place and somewhat reduce size of
other files. No code changes.

JBD2 layer support triggers which are called when journaling layer moves
buffer to a certain state. We can use the frozen trigger, which gets
called when buffer data is frozen and about to be written out to the
journal, to compute block checksums for some buffer types (similarly as
does ocfs2). This avoids unnecessary repeated recomputation of the
checksum (at the cost of larger window where memory corruption won't be
caught by checksumming) and is even necessary when there are
unsynchronized updaters of the checksummed data.
So add superblock and journal trigger type arguments to
ext4_journal_get_write_access() and ext4_journal_get_create_access() so
that frozen triggers can be set accordingly. Also add inode argument to
ext4_walk_page_buffers() and all the callbacks used with that function
for the same purpose. This patch is mostly only a change of prototype of
the above mentioned functions and a few small helpers. Real checksumming
will come later.

The background discard kwork tries to mark blocks used and issue
discard. This can make filesystem suffer from NOSPC error, xfstest
generic/371 can fail due to it. Fix it by flushing discard kwork
in ext4_should_retry_alloc. At the same time, give up discard at
the moment.

Right now, discard is issued and waited to be completed in jbd2
commit kthread context after the logs are committed. When large
amount of files are deleted and discard is flooding, jbd2 commit
kthread can be blocked for long time. Then all of the metadata
operations can be blocked to wait the log space.
One case is the page fault path with read mm->mmap_sem held, which
wants to update the file time but has to wait for the log space.
When other threads in the task wants to do mmap, then write mmap_sem
is blocked. Finally all of the following read mmap_sem requirements
are blocked, even the ps command which need to read the /proc/pid/
-cmdline. Our monitor service which needs to read /proc/pid/cmdline
used to be blocked for 5 mins.
This patch frees the blocks back to buddy after commit and then do
discard in a async kworker context in fstrim fashion, namely,
- mark blocks to be discarded as used if they have not been allocated
- do discard
- mark them free
After this, jbd2 commit kthread won't be blocked any more by discard
and we won't get NOSPC even if the discard is slow or throttled.
