Here is the whole story:
1)
A free space cache consists of two parts:
o free space cache inode, which is special becase it's stored in root tree.
o free space info, which is stored as the above inode's file data.
But we only build up another new inode and does not flush its free space info
onto disk when we _clear and setup_ free space cache, and this ends up with
that the block group cache's cache_state remains DC_SETUP instead of DC_WRITTEN.
And holding DC_SETUP means that we will not truncate this free space cache inode,
which means the disk offset of its file extent will remain _unchanged_ at least
until next transaction finishes committing itself.
2)
We can set a block group readonly when we relocate the block group.
However,
if the readonly block group covers the disk offset where our free space cache
inode is going to write, it will force the free space cache inode into
cow_file_range() and it'll end up hitting a BUG_ON.
3)
Due to the above analysis, we fix this bug by adding the missing dirty flag.
4)
However, it's not over, there is still another case, nospace_cache.
With nospace_cache, we do not want to set dirty flag, instead we just truncate
free space cache inode and bail out with setting cache state DC_WRITTEN.
We can benifit from it since it saves us another 'pre-allocation' part which
usually costs a lot.

During disk balance, we prealloc new file extent for file data relocation,
but we may fail in 'no available space' case, and it leads to flipping btrfs
into readonly.
It is not necessary to bail out and abort transaction since we do have several
ways to rescue ourselves from ENOSPC case.

From btree_read_extent_buffer_pages(), currently repair_io_failure()
can be called with mirror_num being zero when submit_one_bio() returned
an error before. This used to cause a BUG_ON(!mirror_num) in
repair_io_failure() and indeed this is not a case that needs the I/O
repair code to rewrite disk blocks.
This commit prevents calling repair_io_failure() in this case and thus
avoids the BUG_ON() and malfunction.

So shrink_delalloc has grown all sorts of cruft over the years thanks to
many reworkings of how we track enospc. What happens now as we fill up the
disk is we will loop for freaking ever hoping to reclaim a arbitrary amount
of space of metadata, this was from when everybody flushed at the same time.
Now we only have people flushing one at a time. So instead of trying to
reclaim a huge amount of space, just try to flush a decent chunk of space,
and stop looping as soon as we have enough free space to satisfy our
reservation. This makes xfstests 224 go much faster. Thanks,

There is weird logic I had to put in place to make sure that when we were
adding csums that we'd used the delalloc block rsv instead of the global
block rsv. Part of this meant that we had to free up our transaction
reservation before we ran the delayed refs since csum deletion happens
during the delayed ref work. The problem with this is that when we release
a reservation we will add it to the global reserve if it is not full in
order to keep us going along longer before we have to force a transaction
commit. By releasing our reservation before we run delayed refs we don't
get the opportunity to drain down the global reserve for the work we did, so
we won't refill it as often. This isn't a problem per-se, it just results
in us possibly committing transactions more and more often, and in rare
cases could cause those WARN_ON()'s to pop in use_block_rsv because we ran
out of space in our block rsv.
This also helps us by holding onto space while the delayed refs run so we
don't end up with as many people trying to do things at the same time, which
again will help us not force commits or hit the use_block_rsv warnings.

Those crazy gentoo guys have been complaining about ENOSPC errors on their
portage volumes. This is because doing things like untar tends to create
lots of new files which will soak up all the reservation space in the
delayed inodes. Usually this gets papered over by the fact that we will try
and commit the transaction, however if this happens in the wrong spot or we
choose not to commit the transaction you will be screwed. So add the
ability to expclitly flush delayed inodes to free up space. Please test
this out guys to make sure it works since as usual I cannot reproduce.

Commit c11d2c236cc260b36 (Btrfs: add ioctl to get and reset the device

by just the ioctl number which encodes "do reset after read". I have
suggested
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg16604.html

should use a more clean way to pass flags and should not waste ioctl

I have found these and worked on them at around RC1 time but

testing, and surly I have found a bug just yesterday.
So now they are all well tested, and have my sign-off. Other then
fixing the problem at hand, and assuming there are no bugs at the new
code, there is low risk to any surrounding code. And in anyway they
affect only these paths that are now broken. That is RAID5 in pnfs
objects-layout code. It does also affect exofs (which was not broken)
but I have tested exofs and it is lower priority then objects-layout
because no one is using exofs, but objects-layout has lots of users."

It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on
stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then
the XOR should be preformed with all zeros.
Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great
waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have
pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't
like the kind of bugs this calls for.
Fix both birds, by returning a global zero_page, if offset is beyond
i_size.
TODO:
Change the API to ->__r4w_get_page() so a NULL can be
returned without being considered as error, since XOR API
treats NULL entries as zero_pages.

In RAID_5/6 We used to not permit an IO that it's end
byte is not stripe_size aligned and spans more than one stripe.
.i.e the caller must check if after submission the actual
transferred bytes is shorter, and would need to resubmit
a new IO with the remainder.
Exofs supports this, and NFS was supposed to support this
as well with it's short write mechanism. But late testing has
exposed a CRASH when this is used with none-RPC layout-drivers.
The change at NFS is deep and risky, in it's place the fix
at ORE to lift the limitation is actually clean and simple.
So here it is below.
The principal here is that in the case of unaligned IO on
both ends, beginning and end, we will send two read requests
one like old code, before the calculation of the first stripe,
and also a new site, before the calculation of the last stripe.
If any "boundary" is aligned or the complete IO is within a single
stripe. we do a single read like before.
The code is clean and simple by splitting the old _read_4_write
into 3 even parts:
1._read_4_write_first_stripe
2. _read_4_write_last_stripe
3. _read_4_write_execute
And calling 1+3 at the same place as before. 2+3 before last
stripe, and in the case of all in a single stripe then 1+2+3
is preformed additively.
Why did I not think of it before. Well I had a strike of
genius because I have stared at this code for 2 years, and did
not find this simple solution, til today. Not that I did not try.
This solution is much better for NFS than the previous supposedly
solution because the short write was dealt with out-of-band after
IO_done, which would cause for a seeky IO pattern where as in here
we execute in order. At both solutions we do 2 separate reads, only
here we do it within a single IO request. (And actually combine two
writes into a single submission)
NFS/exofs code need not change since the ORE API communicates the new
shorter length on return, what will happen is that this case would not
occur anymore.
hurray!!

UBIFS has a feature called "empty space fix-up" which is a quirk to work-around
limitations of dumb flasher programs. Namely, of those flashers that are unable
to skip NAND pages full of 0xFFs while flashing, resulting in empty space at
the end of half-filled eraseblocks to be unusable for UBIFS. This feature is
relatively new (introduced in v3.0).
The fix-up routine (fixup_free_space()) is executed only once at the very first
mount if the superblock has the 'space_fixup' flag set (can be done with -F
option of mkfs.ubifs). It basically reads all the UBIFS data and metadata and
writes it back to the same LEB. The routine assumes the image is pristine and
does not have anything in the journal.
There was a bug in 'fixup_free_space()' where it fixed up the log incorrectly.
All but one LEB of the log of a pristine file-system are empty. And one
contains just a commit start node. And 'fixup_free_space()' just unmapped this
LEB, which resulted in wiping the commit start node. As a result, some users
were unable to mount the file-system next time with the following symptom:
UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: first log node at LEB 3:0 is not CS node
UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: log error detected while replaying the log at LEB 3:0
The root-cause of this bug was that 'fixup_free_space()' wrongly assumed
that the beginning of empty space in the log head (c->lhead_offs) was known
on mount. However, it is not the case - it was always 0. UBIFS does not store
in it the master node and finds out by scanning the log on every mount.
The fix is simple - just pass commit start node size instead of 0 to
'fixup_leb()'.

As discussed in
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1249726/focus=1288990,
the capability introduced in 4d7e30d98939a0340022ccd49325a3d70f7e0238
to govern EPOLLWAKEUP seems misnamed: this capability is about governing
the ability to suspend the system, not using a particular API flag
(EPOLLWAKEUP). We should make the name of the capability more general
to encourage reuse in related cases. (Whether or not this capability
should also be used to govern the use of /sys/power/wake_lock is a
question that needs to be separately resolved.)
This patch renames the capability to CAP_BLOCK_SUSPEND. In order to ensure
that the old capability name doesn't make it out into the wild, could you
please apply and push up the tree to ensure that it is incorporated
for the 3.5 release.

Each task would kmap part of its address array before getting stuck, but
not enough to actually issue the write.
This patch fixes this by serializing the marshal_iov operations for
async reads and writes. The idea here is to ensure that cifs
aggressively tries to populate a request before attempting to fulfill
another one. As soon as all of the pages are kmapped for a request, then
we can unlock and allow another one to proceed.
There's no need to do this serialization on non-CONFIG_HIGHMEM arches
however, so optimize all of this out when CONFIG_HIGHMEM isn't set.

We currently rely on being able to kmap all of the pages in an async
read or write request. If you're on a machine that has CONFIG_HIGHMEM
set then that kmap space is limited, sometimes to as low as 512 slots.
With 512 slots, we can only support up to a 2M r/wsize, and that's
assuming that we can get our greedy little hands on all of them. There
are other users however, so it's possible we'll end up stuck with a
size that large.
Since we can't handle a rsize or wsize larger than that currently, cap
those options at the number of kmap slots we have. We could consider
capping it even lower, but we currently default to a max of 1M. Might as
well allow those luddites on 32 bit arches enough rope to hang
themselves.
A more robust fix would be to teach the send and receive routines how
to contend with an array of pages so we don't need to marshal up a kvec
array at all. That's a fairly significant overhaul though, so we'll need
this limit in place until that's ready.

- Really fix a cursor leak in xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_near
- Fix a performance regression related to doing allocation in
workqueues
- Prevent recursion in xfs_buf_iorequest which is causing stack
overflows
- Don't call xfs_bdstrat_cb in xfs_buf_iodone callbacks

If a parent and child process open the two ends of a fifo, and the
child immediately exits, the parent may receive a SIGCHLD before its
open() returns. In that case, we need to make sure that open() will
return successfully after the SIGCHLD handler returns, instead of
throwing EINTR or being restarted. Otherwise, the restarted open()
would incorrectly wait for a second partner on the other end.
The following test demonstrates the EINTR that was wrongly thrown from
the parent’s open(). Change .sa_flags = 0 to .sa_flags = SA_RESTART
to see a deadlock instead, in which the restarted open() waits for a
second reader that will never come. (On my systems, this happens
pretty reliably within about 5 to 500 iterations. Others report that
it manages to loop ~forever sometimes; YMMV.)

#define CHECK(x) do if ((x) == -1) {perror(#x); abort();} while(0)
void handler(int signum) {}
int main()
{
struct sigaction act = {.sa_handler = handler, .sa_flags = 0};
CHECK(sigaction(SIGCHLD, &act, NULL));
CHECK(mknod("fifo", S_IFIFO | S_IRWXU, 0));
for (;;) {
int fd;
pid_t pid;
putc('.', stderr);
CHECK(pid = fork());
if (pid == 0) {
CHECK(fd = open("fifo", O_RDONLY));
_exit(0);
}
CHECK(fd = open("fifo", O_WRONLY));
CHECK(close(fd));
CHECK(waitpid(pid, NULL, 0));
}
}
This is what I suspect was causing the Git test suite to fail in
t9010-svn-fe.sh:

xfs_bdstrat_cb only adds a check for a shutdown filesystem over
xfs_buf_iorequest, but xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks just checked for a shut down
filesystem a little earlier. In addition the shutdown handling in
xfs_bdstrat_cb is not very suitable for this caller.

If the b_iodone handler is run in calling context in xfs_buf_iorequest we
can run into a recursion where xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks keeps calling back
into xfs_buf_iorequest because an I/O error happened, which keeps calling
back into xfs_buf_iorequest. This chain will usually not take long
because the filesystem gets shut down because of log I/O errors, but even
over a short time it can cause stack overflows if run on the same context.
As a short term workaround make sure we always call the iodone handler in
workqueue context.
