Change the retry policy in ext4_alloc_file_blocks() to allow for a full
retry cycle whenever a portion of an allocation request has been
fulfilled. A large allocation request often results in multiple calls
to ext4_map_blocks(), each of which is potentially subject to a
temporary ENOSPC condition and retry cycle. The current code only
allows for a single retry cycle.
This patch does not address a known bug or reported complaint.
However, it should make block allocation for fallocate and zero range
more robust.
In addition, simplify the conditional controlling the allocation while
loop, where testing len alone is sufficient. Remove the assignment to
ret2 in the error path after the call to ext4_map_blocks() since its
value isn't subsequently used.

Firstly, pass handle to all ext4_fc_track_* functions and use
transaction id found in handle->h_transaction->h_tid for tracking fast
commit updates. Secondly, don't pass inode to
ext4_fc_track_link/create/unlink functions. inode can be found inside
these functions as d_inode(dentry). However, rename path is an
exeception. That's because in that case, we need inode that's not same
as d_inode(dentry). To handle that, add a couple of low-level wrapper
functions that take inode and dentry as arguments.

This patch adds fast commit recovery path support for Ext4 file
system. We add several helper functions that are similar in spirit to
e2fsprogs journal recovery path handlers. Example of such functions
include - a simple block allocator, idempotent block bitmap update
function etc. Using these routines and the fast commit log in the fast
commit area, the recovery path (ext4_fc_replay()) performs fast commit

This patch adds main fast commit commit path handlers. The overall
patch can be divided into two inter-related parts:
(A) Metadata updates tracking
This part consists of helper functions to track changes that need
to be committed during a commit operation. These updates are
maintained by Ext4 in different in-memory queues. Following are
the APIs and their short description that are implemented in this
patch:
- ext4_fc_track_link/unlink/creat() - Track unlink. link and creat
operations
- ext4_fc_track_range() - Track changed logical block offsets
inodes
- ext4_fc_track_inode() - Track inodes
- ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() - Mark file system fast commit
ineligible()
- ext4_fc_start_update() / ext4_fc_stop_update() /
ext4_fc_start_ineligible() / ext4_fc_stop_ineligible() These
functions are useful for co-ordinating inode updates with
commits.
(B) Main commit Path
This part consists of functions to convert updates tracked in
in-memory data structures into on-disk commits. Function
ext4_fc_commit() is the main entry point to commit path.

In the scenario of writing sparse files, the per-inode prealloc list may
be very long, resulting in high overhead for ext4_mb_use_preallocated().
To circumvent this problem, we limit the maximum length of per-inode
prealloc list to 512 and allow users to modify it.
After patching, we observed that the sys ratio of cpu has dropped, and
the system throughput has increased significantly. We created a process
to write the sparse file, and the running time of the process on the
fixed kernel was significantly reduced, as follows:
Running time on unfixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat

Currently, system zones just track ranges of block, that are "important"
fs metadata (bitmaps, group descriptors, journal blocks, etc.). This
however complicates how extent tree (or indirect blocks) can be checked
for inodes that actually track such metadata - currently the journal
inode but arguably we should be treating quota files or resize inode
similarly. We cannot run __ext4_ext_check() on such metadata inodes when
loading their extents as that would immediately trigger the validity
checks and so we just hack around that and special-case the journal
inode. This however leads to a situation that a journal inode which has
extent tree of depth at least one can have invalid extent tree that gets
unnoticed until ext4_cache_extents() crashes.
To overcome this limitation, track inode number each system zone belongs
to (0 is used for zones not belonging to any inode). We can then verify
inode number matches the expected one when verifying extent tree and
thus avoid the false errors. With this there's no need to to
special-case journal inode during extent tree checking anymore so remove
it.

Fix the bug when calculating the physical block number of the first
block in the split extent.
This bug will cause xfstests shared/298 failure on ext4 with bigalloc
enabled occasionally. Ext4 error messages indicate that previously freed
blocks are being freed again, and the following fsck will fail due to
the inconsistency of block bitmap and bg descriptor.
The following is an example case:
1. First, Initialize a ext4 filesystem with cluster size '16K', block size
'4K', in which case, one cluster contains four blocks.
2. Create one file (e.g., xxx.img) on this ext4 filesystem. Now the extent
tree of this file is like:
...
36864:[0]4:220160
36868:[0]14332:145408
51200:[0]2:231424
...
3. Then execute PUNCH_HOLE fallocate on this file. The hole range is
like:
..
ext4_ext_remove_space: dev 254,16 ino 12 since 49506 end 49506 depth 1
ext4_ext_remove_space: dev 254,16 ino 12 since 49544 end 49546 depth 1
ext4_ext_remove_space: dev 254,16 ino 12 since 49605 end 49607 depth 1
...
4. Then the extent tree of this file after punching is like
...
49507:[0]37:158047
49547:[0]58:158087
...
5. Detailed procedure of punching hole [49544, 49546]
5.1. The block address space:
```
lblk ~49505 49506 49507~49543 49544~49546 49547~
---------+------+-------------+----------------+--------
extent | hole | extent | hole | extent
---------+------+-------------+----------------+--------
pblk ~158045 158046 158047~158083 158084~158086 158087~
```
5.2. The detailed layout of cluster 39521:
```
cluster 39521
<------------------------------->
hole extent
<----------------------><--------
lblk 49544 49545 49546 49547
+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| | | | |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+
pblk 158084 1580845 158086 158087
```
5.3. The ftrace output when punching hole [49544, 49546]:
- ext4_ext_remove_space (start 49544, end 49546)
- ext4_ext_rm_leaf (start 49544, end 49546, last_extent [49507(158047), 40], partial [pclu 39522 lblk 0 state 2])
- ext4_remove_blocks (extent [49507(158047), 40], from 49544 to 49546, partial [pclu 39522 lblk 0 state 2]
- ext4_free_blocks: (block 158084 count 4)
- ext4_mballoc_free (extent 1/6753/1)
5.4. Ext4 error message in dmesg:
EXT4-fs error (device vdb): mb_free_blocks:1457: group 1, block 158084:freeing already freed block (bit 6753); block bitmap corrupt.
EXT4-fs error (device vdb): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:747: group 1, block bitmap and bg descriptor inconsistent: 19550 vs 19551 free clusters
In this case, the whole cluster 39521 is freed mistakenly when freeing
pblock 158084~158086 (i.e., the first three blocks of this cluster),
although pblock 158087 (the last remaining block of this cluster) has
not been freed yet.
The root cause of this isuue is that, the pclu of the partial cluster is
calculated mistakenly in ext4_ext_remove_space(). The correct
partial_cluster.pclu (i.e., the cluster number of the first block in the
next extent, that is, lblock 49597 (pblock 158086)) should be 39521 rather
than 39522.

Don't ignore return values from ext4_ext_dirty, since the errors
indicate valid failures below Ext4. In all of the other instances of
ext4_ext_dirty calls, the error return value is handled in some
way. This patch makes those remaining couple of places to handle
ext4_ext_dirty errors as well. In case of ext4_split_extent_at(), the
ignorance of return value is intentional. The reason is that we are
already in error path and there isn't much we can do if ext4_ext_dirty
returns error. This patch adds a comment for that case explaining why
we ignore the return value.
In the longer run, we probably should
make sure that errors from other mark_dirty routines are handled as
well.

ext4_mark_inode_dirty() can fail for real reasons. Ignoring its return
value may lead ext4 to ignore real failures that would result in
corruption / crashes. Harden ext4_mark_inode_dirty error paths to fail
as soon as possible and return errors to the caller whenever
appropriate.
One of the possible scnearios when this bug could affected is that
while creating a new inode, its directory entry gets added
successfully but while writing the inode itself mark_inode_dirty
returns error which is ignored. This would result in inconsistency
that the directory entry points to a non-existent inode.

We do not want to create initialized extents beyond end of file because
for e2fsck it is impossible to distinguish them from a case of corrupted
file size / extent tree and so it complains like:
Inode 12, i_size is 147456, should be 163840. Fix? no
Code in ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized() and
ext4_split_convert_extents() try to make sure it does not create
initialized extents beyond inode size however they check against
inode->i_size which is wrong. They should instead check against
EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize which is the current inode size on disk.
That's what e2fsck is going to see in case of crash before all dirty
data is written. This bug manifests as generic/456 test failure (with
recent enough fstests where fsx got fixed to properly pass
FALLOC_KEEP_SIZE_FL flags to the kernel) when run with dioread_lock
mount option.

Using a separate function, ext4_set_errno() to set the errno is
problematic because it doesn't do the right thing once

Now that the eofblocks code has been removed, we don't need to assign
0 to err before calling ext4_ext_insert_extent() since it will assign
a return value to ret anyway. The variable free_on_err can be
eliminated and replaced by a reference to allocated_clusters which
clearly conveys the idea that newly allocated blocks should be freed
when recovering from an extent insertion failure. The error handling
code itself should be restructured so that it errors out immediately on
an insertion failure in the case where no new blocks have been allocated
(bigalloc) rather than proceeding further into the mapping code. The
initializer for fb_flags can also be rearranged for improved
readability. Finally, insert a missing space in nearby code.
No known bugs are addressed by this patch - it's simply a cleanup.

Although convert_initialized_extent() can potentially return an error
code with a negative value, its returned value is assigned to an
unsigned variable containing a block count in ext4_ext_map_blocks() and
then returned to that function's caller. The code currently works,
though the way this happens is obscure. The code would be more
readable if it followed the error handling convention used elsewhere
in ext4_ext_map_blocks().
This patch does not address any known test failure or bug report - it's
simply a cleanup. It also addresses a nearby coding standard issue.

The EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL inode flag is used to indicate whether a file
contains unwritten blocks past i_size. It's set when ext4_fallocate
is called with the KEEP_SIZE flag to extend a file with an unwritten
extent. However, this flag hasn't been useful functionally since
March, 2012, when a decision was made to remove it from ext4.
All traces of EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL were removed from e2fsprogs version
1.42.2 by commit 010dc7b90d97 ("e2fsck: remove EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag
handling") at that time. Now that enough time has passed to make
e2fsprogs versions containing this modification common, this patch now
removes the code associated with EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL from the kernel as
well.
This change has two implications. First, because pre-1.42.2 e2fsck
versions only look for a problem if EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL is set, and
because that bit will never be set by newer kernels containing this
patch, old versions of e2fsck won't have a compatibility problem with
files created by newer kernels.
Second, newer kernels will not clear EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL inode flag bits
belonging to a file written by an older kernel. If set, it will remain
in that state until the file is deleted. Because e2fsck versions since
1.42.2 don't check the flag at all, no adverse effect is expected.
However, pre-1.42.2 e2fsck versions that do check the flag may report
that it is set when it ought not to be after a file has been truncated
or had its unwritten blocks written. In this case, the old version of
e2fsck will offer to clear the flag. No adverse effect would then
occur whether the user chooses to clear the flag or not.

Extents are cached in read_extent_tree_block(); as a result, extents
are not cached for inodes with depth == 0 when we try to find the
extent using ext4_find_extent(). The result of the lookup is cached
in ext4_map_blocks() but is only a subset of the extent on disk. As a
result, the contents of extents status cache can get very badly
fragmented for certain workloads, such as a random 4k read workload.
