PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Commit c40a3d38af (Btrfs: Compute and look up csums based on
sectorsized blocks) changes around how we walk the bios while looking up
crcs. There's an inner loop that is jumping to the next bvec based on
sectors and before it derefs the next bvec, it needs to make sure we're
still in the bio.
In this case, the outer loop would have decided to stop moving forward
too, and the bvec deref is never actually used for anything. But
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC catches it because we're outside our bio.

This patch is part of a larger project to cleanup btrfs's internal usage
of struct btrfs_root. Many functions take btrfs_root only to grab a

This causes programmers to ponder which root can be passed. Since only
the fs_info is read affected functions can accept any root, except this
is only obvious upon inspection.
This patch reduces the specificty of such functions to accept the
fs_info directly.
This patch does not address the two functions in ctree.c (insert_ptr,

Under rare circumstances we can end up leaving 2 versions of a checksum
for the same file extent range.
The reason for this is that after calling btrfs_next_leaf we process
slot 0 of the leaf it returns, instead of processing the slot set in
path->slots[0]. Most of the time (by far) path->slots[0] is 0, but after
btrfs_next_leaf() releases the path and before it searches for the next
leaf, another task might cause a split of the next leaf, which migrates
some of its keys to the leaf we were processing before calling
btrfs_next_leaf(). In this case btrfs_next_leaf() returns again the
same leaf but with path->slots[0] having a slot number corresponding
to the first new key it got, that is, a slot number that didn't exist
before calling btrfs_next_leaf(), as the leaf now has more keys than
it had before. So we must really process the returned leaf starting at
path->slots[0] always, as it isn't always 0, and the key at slot 0 can
have an offset much lower than our search offset/bytenr.
For example, consider the following scenario, where we have:
sums->bytenr: 40157184, sums->len: 16384, sums end: 40173568
four 4kb file data blocks with offsets 40157184, 40161280, 40165376, 40169472
Leaf N:
slot = 0 slot = btrfs_header_nritems() - 1
|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
| [(CSUM CSUM 39239680), size 8] ... [(CSUM CSUM 40116224), size 4] |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
Leaf N + 1:
slot = 0 slot = btrfs_header_nritems() - 1
|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
| [(CSUM CSUM 40161280), size 32] ... [((CSUM CSUM 40615936), size 8 |
|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
Because we are at the last slot of leaf N, we call btrfs_next_leaf() to
find the next highest key, which releases the current path and then searches
for that next key. However after releasing the path and before finding that
next key, the item at slot 0 of leaf N + 1 gets moved to leaf N, due to a call
to ctree.c:push_leaf_left() (via ctree.c:split_leaf()), and therefore
btrfs_next_leaf() will returns us a path again with leaf N but with the slot
pointing to its new last key (CSUM CSUM 40161280). This new version of leaf N
is then:
slot = 0 slot = btrfs_header_nritems() - 2 slot = btrfs_header_nritems() - 1
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| [(CSUM CSUM 39239680), size 8] ... [(CSUM CSUM 40116224), size 4] [(CSUM CSUM 40161280), size 32] |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
And incorrecly using slot 0, makes us set next_offset to 39239680 and we jump
into the "insert:" label, which will set tmp to:
tmp = min((sums->len - total_bytes) >> blocksize_bits,
(next_offset - file_key.offset) >> blocksize_bits) =
min((16384 - 0) >> 12, (39239680 - 40157184) >> 12) =
min(4, (u64)-917504 = 18446744073708634112 >> 12) = 4
and
ins_size = csum_size * tmp = 4 * 4 = 16 bytes.
In other words, we insert a new csum item in the tree with key
(CSUM_OBJECTID CSUM_KEY 40157184 = sums->bytenr) that contains the checksums
for all the data (4 blocks of 4096 bytes each = sums->len). Which is wrong,
because the item with key (CSUM CSUM 40161280) (the one that was moved from
leaf N + 1 to the end of leaf N) contains the old checksums of the last 12288
bytes of our data and won't get those old checksums removed.
So this leaves us 2 different checksums for 3 4kb blocks of data in the tree,
and breaks the logical rule:
Key_N+1.offset >= Key_N.offset + length_of_data_its_checksums_cover
An obvious bad effect of this is that a subsequent csum tree lookup to get
the checksum of any of the blocks with logical offset of 40161280, 40165376
or 40169472 (the last 3 4kb blocks of file data), will get the old checksums.

When cloning into a file, we were correctly replacing the extent
items in the target range and removing the extent maps. However
we weren't replacing the extent maps with new ones that point to
the new extents - as a consequence, an incremental fsync (when the
inode doesn't have the full sync flag) was a NOOP, since it relies
on the existence of extent maps in the modified list of the inode's
extent map tree, which was empty. Therefore add new extent maps to
reflect the target clone range.

When the csum tree is empty, our leaf (path->nodes[0]) has a number
of items equal to 0 and since btrfs_header_nritems() returns an
unsigned integer (and so is our local nritems variable) the following
comparison always evaluates to false:
if (path->slots[0] >= nritems - 1) {
As the casting rules lead to:
if ((u32)0 >= (u32)4294967295) {
This makes us access key at slot paths->slots[0] + 1 (1) of the empty leaf
some lines below:
btrfs_item_key_to_cpu(path->nodes[0], &found_key, slot);
if (found_key.objectid != BTRFS_EXTENT_CSUM_OBJECTID ||
found_key.type != BTRFS_EXTENT_CSUM_KEY) {
found_next = 1;
goto insert;
}
So just don't access such non-existent slot and don't set found_next to 1
when the tree is empty. It's very unlikely we'll get a random key with the
objectid and type values above, which is where we could go into trouble.
If nritems is 0, just set found_next to 1 anyway as it will make us insert
a csum item covering our whole extent (or the whole leaf) when the tree is
empty.

Using the structure btrfs_sector_sum to keep the checksum value is
unnecessary, because the extents that btrfs_sector_sum points to are
continuous, we can find out the expected checksums by btrfs_ordered_sum's
bytenr and the offset, so we can remove btrfs_sector_sum's bytenr. After
removing bytenr, there is only one member in the structure, so it makes
no sense to keep the structure, just remove it, and use a u32 array to
store the checksum value.
By this change, we don't use the while loop to get the checksums one by
one. Now, we can get several checksum value at one time, it improved the
performance by ~74% on my SSD (31MB/s -> 54MB/s).

For write, we also reserve some space for COW blocks during updating
the checksum tree, and we calculate the number of blocks by checking
if the number of bytes outstanding that are going to need csums needs
one more block for csum.
When we add these checksum into the checksum tree, we use ordered sums
list.
Every ordered sum contains csums for each sector, and we'll first try
to look up an existing csum item,
a) if we don't yet have a proper csum item, then we need to insert one,
b) or if we find one but the csum item is not big enough, then we need
to extend it.
The point is we'll unlock the whole path and then insert or extend.
So others can hack in and update the tree.
Each insert or extend needs update the tree with COW on, and we may need
to insert/extend for many times.
That means what we've reserved for updating checksum tree is NOT enough
indeed.
The case is even more serious with having several write threads at the
same time, it can end up eating our reserved space quickly and starting
eating globle reserve pool instead.
I don't yet come up with a way to calculate the worse case for updating
csum, but extending the checksum item as much as possible can be helpful
in my test.
The idea behind is that it can reduce the times we insert/extend so that
it saves us precious reserved space.

We've been allocating a big array for csums instead of storing them in the
