journal_try_to_free_buffers() could race with jbd commit transaction
when the later is holding the buffer reference while waiting for the
data buffer to flush to disk. If the caller of
journal_try_to_free_buffers() request tries hard to release the buffers,
it will treat the failure as error and return back to the caller. We
have seen the directo IO failed due to this race. Some of the caller of
releasepage() also expecting the buffer to be dropped when passed with
GFP_KERNEL mask to the releasepage()->journal_try_to_free_buffers().
With this patch, if the caller is passing the GFP_KERNEL to indicating
this call could wait, in case of try_to_free_buffers() failed, let's
waiting for journal_commit_transaction() to finish commit the current
committing transaction , then try to free those buffers again with
journal locked.

This patch mostly controls the way inode are allocated in order to
make ialloc aware of flex_bg block group grouping. It achieves this
by bypassing the Orlov allocator when block group meta-data are packed
toghether through mke2fs. Since the impact on the block allocator is
minimal, this patch should have little or no effect on other block
allocation algorithms. By controlling the inode allocation, it can
basically control where the initial search for new block begins and
thus indirectly manipulate the block allocator.
This allocator favors data and meta-data locality so the disk will
gradually be filled from block group zero upward. This helps improve
performance by reducing seek time. Since the group of inode tables
within one flex_bg are treated as one giant inode table, uninitialized
block groups would not need to partially initialize as many inode
table as with Orlov which would help fsck time as the filesystem usage
goes up.

Some architectures implement ext4_find_next_bit and
ext4_find_next_zero_bit in such a way that they return
greater than max for some input values. Make sure
mb_find_next_bit and mb_find_next_zero_bit return the
right values.
On 2.6.25 we have include/asm-x86/bitops_32.h
static inline unsigned find_first_bit(const unsigned long *addr, unsigned size)
{
unsigned x = 0;
while (x < size) {
unsigned long val = *addr++;
if (val)
return __ffs(val) + x;
x += (sizeof(*addr)<<3);
}
return x;
}
This can return value greater than size.

ext4_dx_find_entry uses ext4_next_entry without verifying that the entry is
valid. If its rec_len == 0 this causes an infinite loop. Refactor the loop
to check the validity of entries before checking whether they match and
moving onto the next one.
There are other uses of ext4_next_entry in this file which also look
problematic. They should be reviewed and fixed if/when we have a test-case
that triggers them.

When we release the iclog, we do an atomic_dec_and_lock to determine if
we are the last reference and need to trigger update of log headers and
writeout. However, in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we also need to
check if we have the last reference count there. If we do, we release
the log buffer, otherwise we decrement the reference count.
But the compare and decrement in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() is not
atomic, so both places can see a reference count of 2 and neither will
release the iclog. That leads to a filesystem hang.
Close the race by replacing the atomic_read() and atomic_dec() pair with
atomic_add_unless() to ensure that they are executed atomically.

Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32)
exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an
executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because
stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established:
so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines.
Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack
vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup. Checking through
our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct:
so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

The stack-glue merge changed the way we use flags in dlmglue in that we now
use the fs/dlm equivalents. Unfortunately, a merge error left the new flock
code only partially updated. This took a while to show up though, because
the lock level constants are actually identical between o2dlm and fs/dlm.
The *_CONVERT and *_NOQUEUE flags have different values though, which is
eventually causing a crash in flags_to_o2dlm().

This patch removes the "recent list" which is used during allocation
and replaces it with the (already existing) mru list used during
deletion. The "recent list" was not a true mru list leading to a number
of inefficiencies including a "next" function which made scanning the
list an order N^2 operation wrt to the number of list elements.
This should increase allocation performance with large numbers of rgrps.
Its also a useful preparation and cleanup before some further changes
which are planned in this area.

invalidate_inode_pages2_range() takes page offset arguments, not byte
ranges.
Another thought is that individual pages might perhaps get evicted by VM
pressure, in which case we might perhaps want to re-read not only the
evicted page, but all subsequent pages too (in case the server returns
more/less data per page so that the alignment of the next entry
changes). We should therefore remove the condition that we only do this on
page->index==0.

Add information about the mapping state of the direct mapping to
/proc/meminfo. I chose /proc/meminfo because that is where all the other
memory statistics are too and it is a generally useful metric even
outside debugging situations. A lot of split kernel pages means the
kernel will run slower.
This way we can see how many large pages are really used for it and how
many are split.
Useful for general insight into the kernel.

We already allow local SH locks while we hold a cached EX glock, so here
we allow DF locks as well. This works only because we rely on the VFS's
invalidation for locally cached data, and because if we hold an EX lock,
then we know that no other node can be caching data relating to this
file.
It dramatically speeds up initial writes to O_DIRECT files since we fall
back to buffered I/O for this and would otherwise bounce between DF and
EX modes on each and every write call. The lessons to be learned from
that are to ensure that (for the time being anyway) O_DIRECT files are
preallocated and that they are written to using reasonably large I/O
sizes. Even so this change fixes that corner case nicely

This manifested itself in rare I/O errors seen on nfs exported fuse

Fix by redoing the page find/create if it was found to be truncated
