Big garbage collection rewrite; now, garbage collection uses the same
mechanisms as used elsewhere for inserting/updating btree node pointers,
instead of rewriting interior btree nodes in place.
This makes the code significantly cleaner and less fragile, and means we
can now make garbage collection incremental - it doesn't have to hold a
write lock on the root of the btree for the entire duration of garbage
collection.
This means that there's less of a latency hit for doing garbage
collection, which means we can gc more frequently (and do a better job
of reclaiming from the cache), and we can coalesce across more btree
nodes (improving our space efficiency).

The bucket refcount (dropped with bkey_put()) is only needed to prevent
the newly allocated bucket from being garbage collected until we've
added a pointer to it somewhere. But for btree node allocations, the
fact that we have btree nodes locked is enough to guard against races
with garbage collection.
Eventually the per bucket refcount is going to be replaced with
something specific to bch_alloc_sectors().

* Get rid of CONFIG_BCACHE_EDEBUG - now, all that code is compiled in

flip on the EDEBUG checks at runtime.
* Dropped an old not terribly useful check in rw_unlock(), and

Previously, bch_ptr_bad() could return false when there was a pointer to
a nonexistant device... it only filtered out keys with PTR_CHECK_DEV
pointers.
This behaviour was intended for multiple cache device support; for that,
just because the device for one of the pointers has gone away doesn't
mean we want to filter out the rest of the pointers.
But we don't yet explicitly filter/check individual pointers, so without
that this behaviour was wrong - a corrupt bkey with a bad device pointer
could cause us to deref a bad pointer. Doh.

There was some looping in submit_partial_cache_hit() and
submit_partial_cache_hit() that isn't needed anymore - originally, we
wouldn't necessarily process the full hit or miss all at once because
when splitting the bio, we took into account the restrictions of the
device we were sending it to.
But, device bio size restrictions are now handled elsewhere, with a
wrapper around generic_make_request() - so that looping has been
unnecessary for awhile now and we can now do quite a bit of cleanup.
And if we trim the key we're reading from to match the subset we're
actually reading, we don't have to explicitly calculate bi_sector
anymore. Neat.

Lots of stuff has been open coding its own btree traversal - which is

This adds new new functions, bch_btree_map_nodes() and
bch_btree_map_keys(), which do the traversal for you. Everything that's
open coding btree traversal now (with the exception of garbage
collection) is slowly going to be converted to these two functions;
being able to write other code at a higher level of abstraction is a
big improvement w.r.t. overall code quality.

We'll often end up with a list of adjacent keys to insert -
because bch_data_insert() may have to fragment the data it writes.
Originally, to simplify things and avoid having to deal with corner
cases bch_btree_insert() would pass keys from this list one at a time to
btree_insert_recurse() - mainly because the list of keys might span leaf
nodes, so it was easier this way.
With the btree_insert_node() refactoring, it's now a lot easier to just
pass down the whole list and have btree_insert_recurse() iterate over
leaf nodes until it's done.
Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <kmo@daterainc.com>
The flow of control in the old btree insertion code was rather -
backwards; we'd recurse down the btree (in btree_insert_recurse()), and
then if we needed to split the keys to be inserted into the parent node
would be effectively returned up to btree_insert_recurse(), which would
notice there was more work to do and finish the insertion.
The main problem with this was that the full logic for btree insertion
could only be used by calling btree_insert_recurse; if you'd gotten to a
btree leaf some other way and had a key to insert, if it turned out that
node needed to be split you were SOL.
This inverts the flow of control so btree_insert_node() does _full_
btree insertion, including splitting - and takes a (leaf) btree node to
insert into as a parameter.
This means we can now _correctly_ handle cache misses - for cache
misses, we need to insert a fake "check" key into the btree when we
discover we have a cache miss - while we still have the btree locked.
Previously, if the btree node was full inserting a cache miss would just
fail.

This is prep work for the reworked btree insertion code.
The way we set b->parent is ugly and hacky... the problem is, when

cache and find all our cached child nodes and change the parent pointer

Background writeback works by scanning the btree for dirty data and
adding those keys into a fixed size buffer, then for each dirty key in
the keybuf writing it to the backing device.
When read_dirty() finishes and it's time to scan for more dirty data, we
need to wait for the outstanding writeback IO to finish - they still
take up slots in the keybuf (so that foreground writes can check for
them to avoid races) - without that wait, we'll continually rescan when
we'll be able to add at most a key or two to the keybuf, and that takes
locks that starves foreground IO. Doh.

with a blunt lawn mower.
Special mention goes to the zcache/zcache2 drivers. They can't co-exist
in the build at the same time, they are under different menu options in
menuconfig, they only show up when you've got the right set of mm
subsystem options configured and so even compile testing is an exercise in
pulling teeth. And that doesn't even take into account the horrible,

Some of bcache's utility code has made it into the rest of the kernel,

Bcache used to have a workaround for allocating from a bio set under
generic_make_request() (if you allocated more than once, the bios you
already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you
submitted, and you'd risk deadlock) - bcache would mask out __GFP_WAIT
when allocating bios under generic_make_request() so that allocation
could fail and it could retry from workqueue. But bio_alloc_bioset() has
a workaround now, so we can drop this hack and the associated error

The most significant change is that btree reads are now done
synchronously, instead of asynchronously and doing the post read stuff
from a workqueue.
This was originally done because we can't block on IO under
generic_make_request(). But - we already have a mechanism to punt cache
lookups to workqueue if needed, so if we just use that we don't have to
deal with the complexity of doing things asynchronously.
The main benefit is this makes the locking situation saner; we can hold
our write lock on the btree node until we're finished reading it, and we
don't need that btree_node_read_done() flag anymore.
Also, for writes, btree_write() was broken out into btree_node_write()
and btree_leaf_dirty() - the old code with the boolean argument was dumb
and confusing.
The prio_blocked mechanism was improved a bit too, now the only counter
is in struct btree_write, we don't mess with transfering a count from
struct btree anymore.
This required changing garbage collection to block prios at the start
and unblock when it finishes, which is cleaner than what it was doing
anyways (the old code had mostly the same effect, but was doing it in a
convoluted way)
And the btree iter btree_node_read_done() uses was converted to a real
mempool.

An old version of gcc was complaining about using a const int as the
size of a stack allocated array. Which should be fine - but using
ARRAY_SIZE() is better, anyways.
Also, refactor the code to use scnprintf().

bio_alloc_bioset returns NULL on failure. This fix adds a missing check
for potential NULL pointer dereferencing.

The Kconfig entry for BCACHE selects CLOSURES. But there's no Kconfig
symbol CLOSURES. That symbol was used in development versions of bcache,
but was removed when the closures code was no longer provided as a
kernel library. It can safely be dropped.

The main fix is that bch_allocator_thread() wasn't waiting on
garbage collection to finish (if invalidate_buckets had set
ca->invalidate_needs_gc); we need that to make sure the allocator
doesn't spin and potentially block gc from finishing.

bch_bio_max_sectors() was checking against BIO_MAX_PAGES as if the limit
was for the total bytes in the bio, not the number of segments.

Does writethrough and writeback caching, handles unclean shutdown, and
has a bunch of other nifty features motivated by real world usage.
