xfs: allow queued AG intents to drain before scrubbing
When a writer thread executes a chain of log intent items, the AG header
buffer locks will cycle during a transaction roll to get from one intent
item to the next in a chain. Although scrub takes all AG header buffer
locks, this isn't sufficient to guard against scrub checking an AG while
that writer thread is in the middle of finishing a chain because there's
no higher level locking primitive guarding allocation groups.
When there's a collision, cross-referencing between data structures
(e.g. rmapbt and refcountbt) yields false corruption events; if repair
is running, this results in incorrect repairs, which is catastrophic.
Fix this by adding to the perag structure the count of active intents
and make scrub wait until it has both AG header buffer locks and the
intent counter reaches zero.
One quirk of the drain code is that deferred bmap updates also bump and
drop the intent counter. A fundamental decision made during the design
phase of the reverse mapping feature is that updates to the rmapbt
records are always made by the same code that updates the primary
metadata. In other words, callers of bmapi functions expect that the
bmapi functions will queue deferred rmap updates.
Some parts of the reflink code queue deferred refcount (CUI) and bmap
(BUI) updates in the same head transaction, but the deferred work
manager completely finishes the CUI before the BUI work is started. As
a result, the CUI drops the intent count long before the deferred rmap
(RUI) update even has a chance to bump the intent count. The only way
to keep the intent count elevated between the CUI and RUI is for the BUI
to bump the counter until the RUI has been created.
A second quirk of the intent drain code is that deferred work items must
increment the intent counter as soon as the work item is added to the
transaction. When a BUI completes and queues an RUI, the RUI must
increment the counter before the BUI decrements it. The only way to
accomplish this is to require that the counter be bumped as soon as the
deferred work item is created in memory.
In the next patches we'll improve on this facility, but this patch
provides the basic functionality.

filelock: move file locking definitions to separate header file
The file locking definitions have lived in fs.h since the dawn of time,
but they are only used by a small subset of the source files that
include it.
Move the file locking definitions to a new header file, and add the
appropriate #include directives to the source files that need them. By
doing this we trim down fs.h a bit and limit the amount of rebuilding
that has to be done when we make changes to the file locking APIs.

xfs: drop async cache flushes from CIL commits.
Jan Kara reported a performance regression in dbench that he
bisected down to commit bad77c375e8d ("xfs: CIL checkpoint
flushes caches unconditionally").
Whilst developing the journal flush/fua optimisations this cache was
part of, it appeared to made a significant difference to
performance. However, now that this patchset has settled and all the
correctness issues fixed, there does not appear to be any
significant performance benefit to asynchronous cache flushes.
In fact, the opposite is true on some storage types and workloads,
where additional cache flushes that can occur from fsync heavy
workloads have measurable and significant impact on overall
throughput.
Local dbench testing shows little difference on dbench runs with
sync vs async cache flushes on either fast or slow SSD storage, and
no difference in streaming concurrent async transaction workloads
like fs-mark.

commit a793d79ea3e041081cd7cbd8ee43d0b5e4914a2b upstream.
The low-level mapping helpers were so far crammed into fs.h. They are
out of place there. The fs.h header should just contain the higher-level
mapping helpers that interact directly with vfs objects such as struct
super_block or struct inode and not the bare mapping helpers. Similarly,
only vfs and specific fs code shall interact with low-level mapping
helpers. And so they won't be made accessible automatically through
regular {g,u}id helpers.

xfs: drop async cache flushes from CIL commits.

xfs: drop async cache flushes from CIL commits.
[ Upstream commit 919edbadebe17a67193533f531c2920c03e40fa4 ]
Jan Kara reported a performance regression in dbench that he
bisected down to commit bad77c375e8d ("xfs: CIL checkpoint
flushes caches unconditionally").
Whilst developing the journal flush/fua optimisations this cache was
part of, it appeared to made a significant difference to
performance. However, now that this patchset has settled and all the
correctness issues fixed, there does not appear to be any
significant performance benefit to asynchronous cache flushes.
In fact, the opposite is true on some storage types and workloads,
where additional cache flushes that can occur from fsync heavy
workloads have measurable and significant impact on overall
throughput.
Local dbench testing shows little difference on dbench runs with
sync vs async cache flushes on either fast or slow SSD storage, and
no difference in streaming concurrent async transaction workloads
like fs-mark.

fs: move mapping helpers
commit a793d79ea3e041081cd7cbd8ee43d0b5e4914a2b upstream.
The low-level mapping helpers were so far crammed into fs.h. They are
out of place there. The fs.h header should just contain the higher-level
mapping helpers that interact directly with vfs objects such as struct
super_block or struct inode and not the bare mapping helpers. Similarly,
only vfs and specific fs code shall interact with low-level mapping
helpers. And so they won't be made accessible automatically through
regular {g,u}id helpers.

xfs: drop async cache flushes from CIL commits.

xfs: drop async cache flushes from CIL commits.
[ Upstream commit 919edbadebe17a67193533f531c2920c03e40fa4 ]
Jan Kara reported a performance regression in dbench that he
bisected down to commit bad77c375e8d ("xfs: CIL checkpoint
flushes caches unconditionally").
Whilst developing the journal flush/fua optimisations this cache was
part of, it appeared to made a significant difference to
performance. However, now that this patchset has settled and all the
correctness issues fixed, there does not appear to be any
significant performance benefit to asynchronous cache flushes.
In fact, the opposite is true on some storage types and workloads,
where additional cache flushes that can occur from fsync heavy
workloads have measurable and significant impact on overall
throughput.
Local dbench testing shows little difference on dbench runs with
sync vs async cache flushes on either fast or slow SSD storage, and
no difference in streaming concurrent async transaction workloads
like fs-mark.

Performance and cache flush behaviour is restored to pre-regression
levels.
As such, we can now consider the async cache flush mechanism an
unnecessary exercise in premature optimisation and hence we can
now remove it and the infrastructure it requires completely.
