Fixed up trivial conflicts:
- arch/x86/include/asm/socket.h
converted to <asm-generic/socket.h> in the x86 tree. The generic
header has the same new #define's, so that works out fine.
- drivers/net/tun.c
fix conflict between 89f56d1e9 ("tun: reuse struct sock fields") that
switched over to using 'tun->socket.sk' instead of the redundantly
available (and thus removed) 'tun->sk', and 2b980dbd ("lsm: Add hooks
to the TUN driver") which added a new 'tun->sk' use.

When we close a file, we remove preallocated blocks from it. But this
truncation was not protected by i_mutex and thus it could have raced with a
write through a different fd and cause crashes or even filesystem corruption.

So far we preallocated blocks also for directories but that brings a
problem, when to get rid of preallocated blocks we don't need. So far
we removed them in udf_clear_inode() which has a disadvantage that
1) blocks are unavailable long after writing to a directory finished
and thus one can get out of space unnecessarily early
2) releasing blocks from udf_clear_inode is problematic because VFS
does not expect us to redirty inode there and it also slows down
memory reclaim.
So preallocate blocks only for regular files where we can drop preallocation
in udf_release_file.

Currenly vfs_fsync(_range) first calls filemap_fdatawrite to write out
the data, the calls into ->fsync to write out the metadata and then finally
calls filemap_fdatawait to wait for the data I/O to complete. What sounds
like a clever micro-optimization actually is nast trap for many filesystems.
For many modern filesystems i_size or other inode information is only
updated on I/O completion and we need to wait for I/O to finish before
we can write out the metadata. For old fashionen filesystems that
instanciate blocks during the actual write and also update the metadata
at that point it opens up a large window were we could expose uninitialized
blocks after a crash. While a few filesystems that need it already wait
for the I/O to finish inside their ->fsync methods it is rather suboptimal
as it is done under the i_mutex and also always for the whole file instead
of just a part as we could do for O_SYNC handling.
Here is a small audit of all fsync instances in the tree:
- spufs_mfc_fsync:
- ps3flash_fsync:
- vol_cdev_fsync:
- printer_fsync:
- fb_deferred_io_fsync:
- bad_file_fsync:
- simple_sync_file:
don't care - filesystems/drivers do't use the page cache or are
purely in-memory.
- simple_fsync:
- file_fsync:
- affs_file_fsync:
- fat_file_fsync:
- jfs_fsync:
- ubifs_fsync:
- reiserfs_dir_fsync:
- reiserfs_sync_file:
never touch pagecache themselves. We need to wait before if we do
not want to expose stale data after an allocation.
- afs_fsync:
- fuse_fsync_common:
do the waiting writeback itself in awkward ways, would benefit from
proper semantics
- block_fsync:
Does a filemap_write_and_wait on the block device inode. Because we
now have f_mapping that is the same inode we call it on in vfs_fsync.
So just removing it and letting the VFS do the work in one go would
be an improvement.
- btrfs_sync_file:
- cifs_fsync:
- xfs_file_fsync:
need the wait first and currently do it themselves. would benefit from
doing it outside i_mutex.
- coda_fsync:
- ecryptfs_fsync:
- exofs_file_fsync:
- shm_fsync:
only passes the fsync through to the lower layer
- ext3_sync_file:
doesn't seem to care, comments are confusing.
- ext4_sync_file:
would need the wait to work correctly for delalloc mode with late
i_size updates. Otherwise the ext3 comment applies.
currently implemens it's own writeback and wait in an odd way,
could benefit from doing it properly.
- gfs2_fsync:
not needed for journaled data mode, but probably harmless there.
Currently writes back data asynchronously itself. Needs some
major audit.
- hostfs_fsync:
just calls fsync/datasync on the host FD. Without the wait before
data might not even be inflight yet if we're unlucky.
- hpfs_file_fsync:
- ncp_fsync:
no-ops. Dangerous before and after.
- jffs2_fsync:
just calls jffs2_flush_wbuf_gc, not sure how this relates to data.
- nfs_fsync_dir:
just increments stats, claims all directory operations are synchronous
- nfs_file_fsync:
only writes out data??? Looks very odd.
- nilfs_sync_file:
looks like it expects all data done, but not sure from the code
- ntfs_dir_fsync:
- ntfs_file_fsync:
appear to do their own data writeback. Very convoluted code.
- ocfs2_sync_file:
does it's own data writeback, but no wait. probably needs the wait.
- smb_fsync:
according to a comment expects all pages written already, probably needs
the wait before.
This patch only changes vfs_fsync_range, removal of the wait in the methods
that have it is left to the filesystem maintainers. Note that most
filesystems really do need an audit for their fsync methods given the
gems found in this very brief audit.

fat_cont_expand() is the only user of sync_page_range_nolock(). It's also the
only user of generic_osync_inode() which does not have a file open. So
opencode needed actions for FAT so that we can convert generic_osync_inode() to
a standard syncing path.
Update a comment about generic_osync_inode().

Update ocfs2 specific splicing code to use generic syncing helper. The sync now
does not happen under rw_lock because generic_write_sync() acquires i_mutex
which ranks above rw_lock. That should not matter because standard fsync path
does not hold it either.

IS_SYNC inode
Introduce new function for generic inode syncing (vfs_fsync_range) and use
it from fsync() path. Introduce also new helper for syncing after a sync
write (generic_write_sync) using the generic function.
Use these new helpers for syncing from generic VFS functions. This makes
O_SYNC writes to block devices acquire i_mutex for syncing. If we really
care about this, we can make block_fsync() drop the i_mutex and reacquire
it before it returns.

generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw
character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case
generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to

Use the new helper. We have to submit data pages ourselves in case of O_SYNC
write because __generic_file_aio_write does not do it for us. OCFS2 developpers
might think about moving the sync out of i_mutex which seems to be easily
possible but that's out of scope of this patch.

generic_file_buffered_write()
generic_file_direct_write() and generic_file_buffered_write() called
generic_osync_inode() if it was called on O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode. But
this is superfluous since generic_file_aio_write() does the syncing as well.
Also XFS and OCFS2 which call these functions directly handle syncing
themselves. So let's have a single place where syncing happens:
generic_file_aio_write().
We slightly change the behavior by syncing only the range of file to which the
write happened for buffered writes but that should be all that is required.

Some people asked me questions like the following:

Actually, nilfs is NOT a filesystem came from other operating systems,
but a filesystem created purely for Linux. Nor is it a flash
filesystem but that for generic block devices.
So, this moves nilfs outside the misc category as I responded in LKML
"Re: Why does NILFS2 hide under Miscellaneous filesystems?"
(Message-Id: <20090716.002526.93465395.ryusuke@osrg.net>).

The nilfs_bmap_lookup() is now a wrapper function of
nilfs_bmap_lookup_at_level().
This moves the nilfs_bmap_lookup() to a header file converting it to
an inline function and gives an opportunity for optimization.

The current btree code is written so that btree functions call dat
operations via wrapper functions in bmap.c when they allocate, free,
or modify virtual block addresses.
This abstraction requires additional function calls and causes
frequent call of nilfs_bmap_get_dat() function since it is used in the
every wrapper function.
This removes the wrapper functions and makes them available from
btree.c and direct.c, which will increase the opportunity of
compiler optimization.

This is a preparation for the successive cleanup ("nilfs2: allow btree
to directly call dat operations").
This adds functions bundling a few operations to change an entry of
virtual block address on the dat file.

This gets rid of NILFS_CPFILE_GFP, NILFS_SUFILE_GFP, NILFS_DAT_GFP,
and NILFS_IFILE_GFP. All of these constants refer to NILFS_MDT_GFP,
and can be removed.

The btree path object is cleared just before it is freed.
This will remove the code doing the unnecessary clear operation.

Even though many btree functions take a btree object as their first
argument, most of them are not used in their functions.
This sticky use of the btree argument is hurting code readability and
giving the possibility of inefficient code generation.
So, this removes the unnecessary btree arguments.

These functions are not called from any functions.

This is a re-revised patch to shorten freeze period.
This version include a fix of the bug Konishi-san mentioned last time.
When GC is runnning, GC moves live block to difference segments.
Copying live blocks into memory is done in a transaction,
however it is not necessarily to be in the transaction.
This patch will get the nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() out from
transaction lock and put it before the transaction.
I ran sysbench fileio test against nilfs partition.
I copied some DVD/CD images and created snapshot to create live blocks
before starting the benchmark.
Followings are summary of rc8 and rc8 w/ the patch of per-request
statistics, which is min/max and avg. I ran each test three times and
bellow is average of those numers.
According to this benchmark result, average time is slightly degrated.
However, worstcase (max) result is significantly improved.
This can address a few seconds write freeze.
