7ed122e42c GFS2: Streamline alloc calculations for writes
This patch removes some unused code, and make the calculation
of the number of blocks required conditional in order to reduce
the number of times this (potentially expensive) calculation

383f01fbf4 GFS2: Banish struct gfs2_dinode_host
The final field in gfs2_dinode_host was the i_flags field. Thats
renamed to i_diskflags in order to avoid confusion with the existing
inode flags, and moved into the inode proper at a suitable location
to avoid creating a "hole".

At that point struct gfs2_dinode_host is no longer needed and as
promised (quite some time ago!) it can now be removed completely.

5af4e7a0be [GFS2] fix gfs2 block allocation (cleaned up)
This patch fixes bz 450641.

This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it
renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata
tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either
diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first
indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the
inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for
509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the
first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the
height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located.
It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2
(if it diverges from the first indirect block).

d82661d969 [GFS2] Streamline quota lock/check for no-quota case
This patch streamlines the quota checking in the "no quota" case by
making the check inline in the calling function, thus reducing the
number of function calls. Eventually we might be able to remove the
checks from the gfs2_quota_lock() and gfs2_quota_check() functions, but
currently we can't as there are a very few places in the code which need
to call these functions directly still.

9b8c81d1de [GFS2] Allow bmap to allocate extents
We've supported mapping of extents when no block allocation is required
for some time. This patch extends that to mapping of extents when an
allocation has been requested. In that case we try to allocate as many
blocks as are requested, but we might return fewer in case there is
something preventing us from returning the complete amount (e.g. an
already allocated block is in the way).

Currently the only code path which can actually request multiple data
blocks in a single bmap call is the page_mkwrite path and even then it
only happens if there are multiple blocks per page. What this patch does
do however, is merge the allocation requests for metadata (growing the
metadata tree in either height or depth) with the allocation of the data
blocks in the case that both are needed. This results in lower overheads
even in the single block allocation case.

The one thing which we can't handle here at the moment is unstuffing. I
would like to be able to do that, but the problem which arises is that
in order to unstuff one has to get a locked page from the page cache
which results in locking problems in the (usual) case that the caller is
holding the page lock on the page it wishes to map. So that case will
have to be addressed in future patches.

e23159d2a7 [GFS2] Get inode buffer only once per block map call

once during the block map process.

77658aad22 [GFS2] Eliminate (almost) duplicate field from gfs2_inode
The blocks counter is almost a duplicate of the i_blocks
field in the VFS inode. The only difference is that i_blocks
can be only 32bits long for 32bit arch without large single file
support. Since GFS2 doesn't handle the non-large single file
case (for 32 bit anyway) this adds a new config dependency on
64BIT || LSF. This has always been the case, however we've never
explicitly said so before.

Even if we do add support for the non-LSF case, we will still
not require this field to be duplicated since we will not be
able to access oversized files anyway.

So the net result of all this is that we shave 8 bytes from a gfs2_inode
and get our config deps correct.

b45e41d7d5 [GFS2] Add extent allocation to block allocator
Rather than having to allocate a single block at a time, this patch
allows the block allocator to allocate an extent. Since there is
no difference (so far as the block allocator is concerned) between
data blocks and indirect blocks, it is posible to allocate a single
extent and for the caller to unrevoke just the blocks required
for indirect blocks.

Currently the only bit of GFS2 to make use of this feature is the
build height function. The intention is that gfs2_block_map will
be changed to make use of this feature in future patches.

5731be53e3 [GFS2] Update gfs2_trans_add_unrevoke to accept extents
By adding an extra argument to gfs2_trans_add_unrevoke we can now
specify an extent length of blocks to unrevoke. This means that
we only need to make one pass through the list for each extent
rather than each block. Currently the only extent length which
is used is 1, but that will change in the future.

Also gfs2_trans_add_unrevoke is removed from gfs2_alloc_meta
since its the only difference between this and gfs2_alloc_data
which is left. This will allow a future patch to merge these
two functions into one (i.e. one call to allocate both data
and metadata in a single extent in the future).

ecc30c7915 [GFS2] Streamline indirect pointer tree height calculation
This patch improves the calculation of the tree height in order to reduce
the number of operations which are carried out on each call to gfs2_block_map.
In the common case, we now make a single comparison, rather than calculating
the required tree height from scratch each time. Also in the case that the
tree does need some extra height, we start from the current height rather from
zero when we work out what the new height ought to be.

In addition the di_height field is moved into the inode proper and reduced
in size to a u8 since the value must be between 0 and GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT (10).

eebd2aa355 Pagecache zeroing: zero_user_segment, zero_user_segments and zero_user
Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions

zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)

        Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
        start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
	makes code clearer.

zero_user_segment(page, start, end)

        Same for a single segment.

zero_user(page, start, length)

        Length variant for the case where we know the length.

We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:

1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.

2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.

   Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
   code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
   KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.

Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
functions defined in highmem.h.

Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
functions are called.

Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

This is a small I/O performance enhancement to gfs2.  (Actually, it is a rework of

time and trouble because it knows an allocate will be required.  Benchmarks like
iozone should see better performance.

6dbd822487 [GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of line
It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc
structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc
structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases
the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory
allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test
with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note
that OCFS2 use the same approach.

In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size
of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the
immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add
too much overhead.

bb8d8a6f54 [GFS2] Fix sign problem in quota/statfs and cleanup _host structures
This patch fixes some sign issues which were accidentally introduced
into the quota & statfs code during the endianess annotation process.
Also included is a general clean up which moves all of the _host
structures out of gfs2_ondisk.h (where they should not have been to
start with) and into the places where they are actually used (often only
one place). Also those _host structures which are not required any more
are removed entirely (which is the eventual plan for all of them).

The conversion routines from ondisk.c are also moved into the places
where they are actually used, which for almost every one, was just one
single place, so all those are now static functions. This also cleans up
the end of gfs2_ondisk.h which no longer needs the #ifdef __KERNEL__.

The net result is a reduction of about 100 lines of code, many functions
now marked static plus the bug fixes as mentioned above. For good
measure I ran the code through sparse after making these changes to
check that there are no warnings generated.

dbb7cae2a3 [GFS2] Clean up inode number handling
This patch cleans up the inode number handling code. The main difference
is that instead of looking up the inodes using a struct gfs2_inum_host
we now use just the no_addr member of this structure. The tests relating
to no_formal_ino can then be done by the calling code. This has
advantages in that we want to do different things in different code
paths if the no_formal_ino doesn't match. In the NFS patch we want to
return -ESTALE, but in the ->lookup() path, its a bug in the fs if the
no_formal_ino doesn't match and thus we can withdraw in this case.

In order to later fix bz #201012, we need to be able to look up an inode
without knowing no_formal_ino, as the only information that is known to
us is the on-disk location of the inode in question.

This patch will also help us to fix bz #236099 at a later date by
cleaning up a lot of the code in that area.

There are no user visible changes as a result of this patch and there
are no changes to the on-disk format either.

cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

1a7b1eed58 [GFS2] Shrink gfs2_inode (6) - di_atime/di_mtime/di_ctime
Remove the di_[amc]time fields and use inode->i_[amc]time
fields instead. This saves 24 bytes from the gfs2_inode.

539e5d6b7a [GFS2] Change argument of gfs2_dinode_out
Everywhere this was called, a struct gfs2_inode was available,
but despite that, it was always called with a struct gfs2_dinode
as an argument. By making this change it paves the way to start
eliminating fields duplicated between the kernel's struct inode
and the struct gfs2_dinode.

23591256d6 [GFS2] Fix bmap to map extents properly
This fix means that bmap will map extents of the length requested
by the VFS rather than guessing at it, or just mapping one block
at a time. The other callers of gfs2_block_map are audited to ensure
they send the correct max extent lengths (i.e. set bh->b_size correctly).

48516ced21 [GFS2] Remove uneeded endian conversion
In many places GFS2 was calling the endian conversion routines
for an inode even when only a single field, or a few fields might
have changed. As a result we were copying lots of data needlessly.

This patch replaces those calls with conversion of just the
required fields in each case. This should be faster and easier
to understand. There are still other places which suffer from this
problem, but this is a start in the right direction.

7276b3b0c7 [GFS2] Tidy up meta_io code
Fix a bug in the directory reading code, where we might have dereferenced
a NULL pointer in case of OOM. Updated the directory code to use the new
& improved version of gfs2_meta_ra() which now returns the first block
that was being read. Previously it was releasing it requiring following
code to grab the block again at each point it was called.

Also turned off readahead on directory lookups since we are reading a
hash table, and therefore reading the entries in order is very
unlikely. Readahead is still used for all other calls to the
directory reading function (e.g. when growing the hash table).

Removed the DIO_START constant. Everywhere this was used, it was
used to unconditionally start i/o aside from a couple of places, so
I've removed it and made the couple of exceptions to this rule into
separate functions.

Also hunted through the other DIO flags and removed them as arguments
from functions which were always called with the same combination of
arguments.

Updated gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer to be a bit more efficient and
hopefully also be a bit easier to read.

7d308590ae [GFS2] Export lm_interface to kernel headers
lm_interface.h has a few out of the tree clients such as GFS1
and userland tools.

Right now, these clients keeps a copy of the file in their build tree
that can go out of sync.

Move lm_interface.h to include/linux, export it to userland and
clean up fs/gfs2 to use the new location.
