17b692f60e f2fs: use spinlock rather than mutex for better speed
With the 2 previous changes, all the long time operations are moved out
of the protection region, so here we can use spinlock rather than mutex
(orphan_inode_mutex) for lower overhead.

0d47c1adc2 f2fs: convert max_orphans to a field of f2fs_sb_info
Previously, we need to calculate the max orphan num when we try to acquire an
orphan inode, but it's a stable value since the super block was inited. So
converting it to a field of f2fs_sb_info and use it directly when needed seems
a better choose.

e234088758 f2fs: avoid wait if IO end up when do_checkpoint for better performance
Previously, do_checkpoint() will call congestion_wait() for waiting the pages
(previous submitted node/meta/data pages) to be written back.
Because congestion_wait() will set a regular period (e.g. HZ / 50 ) for waiting, and
no additional wake up mechanism was introduced if IO ends up before regular period costed.
Yuan Zhong found there is a situation that after the pages have been written back,
but the checkpoint thread still wait for congestion_wait to exit.

So here we store checkpoint task into f2fs_sb when doing checkpoint, it'll wait for IO completes
if there's IO going on, and in the end IO path, wake up checkpoint task when IO ends up.

Thanks to Yuan Zhong's pre work about this problem.

e479556bfd f2fs: use rw_sem instead of fs_lock(locks mutex)
The fs_locks is used to block other ops(ex, recovery) when doing checkpoint.
And each other operate routine(besides checkpoint) needs to acquire a fs_lock,
there is a terrible problem here, if these are too many concurrency threads acquiring
fs_lock, so that they will block each other and may lead to some performance problem,
but this is not the phenomenon we want to see.
Though there are some optimization patches introduced to enhance the usage of fs_lock,
but the thorough solution is using a *rw_sem* to replace the fs_lock.
Checkpoint routine takes write_sem, and other ops take read_sem, so that we can block
other ops(ex, recovery) when doing checkpoint, and other ops will not disturb each other,
this can avoid the problem described above completely.
Because of the weakness of rw_sem, the above change may introduce a potential problem
that the checkpoint thread might get starved if other threads are intensively locking
the read semaphore for I/O.(Pointed out by Xu Jin)
In order to avoid this, a wait_list is introduced, the appending read semaphore ops
will be dropped into the wait_list if checkpoint thread is waiting for write semaphore,
and will be waked up when checkpoint thread gives up write semaphore.
Thanks to Kim's previous review and test, and will be very glad to see other guys'
performance tests about this patch.

V2:
  -fix the potential starvation problem.
  -use more suitable func name suggested by Xu Jin.

cbd56e7d20 f2fs: fix handling orphan inodes
This patch fixes mishandling of the sbi->n_orphans variable.

If users request lots of f2fs_unlink(), check_orphan_space() could be contended.
In such the case, sbi->n_orphans can be read incorrectly so that f2fs_unlink()
would fall into the wrong state which results in the failure of
add_orphan_inode().

So, let's increment sbi->n_orphans virtually prior to the actual orphan inode
stuffs. After that, let's release sbi->n_orphans by calling release_orphan_inode
or remove_orphan_inode.

In recover_dentry(),
 dir = f2fs_iget();

 if (de && inode->i_ino == le32_to_cpu(de->ino))

In this case, this dir is not able to be added in dirty_dir_inode_list.

If *dir*'s i_count is not 1 (i.e., root dir), remove_dirty_dir_inode is called

In the following scenario, a bug is captured.
 1. dir = f2fs_iget(pino)
 2. __f2fs_add_link(dir, name)
 3. iput(dir)
  -> f2fs_evict_inode() faces with BUG_ON(atomic_read(fi->dirty_dents))

This means that we should flush all the dentry pages between iget and iput().
But, during the recovery routine, it is unallowed due to consistency, so we
have to wait the whole recovery process.
And then, write_checkpoint flushes all the dirty dentry blocks, and nicely we
can put the stale dir inodes from the dirty_dir_inode_list.

	DATA_NEW,	/* for data allocation */
	DATA_TRUNC,	/* for data truncate */
	NODE_NEW,	/* for node allocation */
	NODE_TRUNC,	/* for node truncate */
	NODE_WRITE,	/* for node write */
	NR_LOCK_TYPE,
};

In that case, we lose the performance under the multi-threading environment,
since every types of operations must be conducted one at a time.

In order to address the problem, let's share the locks globally with a mutex
array regardless of any types.
So, let users grab a mutex and perform their jobs in parallel as much as
possbile.

For this, I propose a new global lock scheme as follows.

0. Data structure
 - f2fs_sb_info -> mutex_lock[NR_GLOBAL_LOCKS]
 - f2fs_sb_info -> node_write

1. mutex_lock_op(sbi)
 - try to get an avaiable lock from the array.
 - returns the index of the gottern lock variable.

2. mutex_unlock_op(sbi, index of the lock)
 - unlock the given index of the lock.

3. mutex_lock_all(sbi)
 - grab all the locks in the array before the checkpoint.

4. mutex_unlock_all(sbi)
 - release all the locks in the array after checkpoint.

5. block_operations()
 - call mutex_lock_all()
 - sync_dirty_dir_inodes()
 - grab node_write
 - sync_node_pages()

Note that,
 the pairs of mutex_lock_op()/mutex_unlock_op() and
 mutex_lock_all()/mutex_unlock_all() should be used together.

5ec4e49f9b f2fs: change GC bitmaps to apply the section granularity
This patch removes a bitmap for victim segments selected by foreground GC, and
modifies the other bitmap for victim segments selected by background GC.

1) foreground GC bitmap
 : We don't need to manage this, since we just only one previous victim section
   number instead of the whole victim history.
   The f2fs uses the victim section number in order not to allocate currently
   GC'ed section to current active logs.

2) background GC bitmap
 : This bitmap is used to avoid selecting victims repeatedly by background GCs.
   In addition, the victims are able to be selected by foreground GCs, since
   there is no need to read victim blocks during foreground GCs.

   By the fact that the foreground GC reclaims segments in a section unit, it'd
   be better to manage this bitmap based on the section granularity.

393ff91f57 f2fs: reduce unncessary locking pages during read
This patch reduces redundant locking and unlocking pages during read operations.
In f2fs_readpage, let's use wait_on_page_locked() instead of lock_page.
And then, when we need to modify any data finally, let's lock the page so that
we can avoid lock contention.

[readpage rule]
- The f2fs_readpage returns unlocked page, or released page too in error cases.
- Its caller should handle read error, -EIO, after locking the page, which
  indicates read completion.
- Its caller should check PageUptodate after grab_cache_page.

437275272f f2fs: clarify and enhance the f2fs_gc flow
This patch makes clearer the ambiguous f2fs_gc flow as follows.

1. Remove intermediate checkpoint condition during f2fs_gc
 (i.e., should_do_checkpoint() and GC_BLOCKED)

2. Remove unnecessary return values of f2fs_gc because of #1.
 (i.e., GC_NODE, GC_OK, etc)

3. Simplify write_checkpoint() because of #2.

4. Clarify the main f2fs_gc flow.
 o monitor how many freed sections during one iteration of do_garbage_collect().
 o do GC more without checkpoints if we can't get enough free sections.
 o do checkpoint once we've got enough free sections through forground GCs.

5. Adopt thread-logging (Slack-Space-Recycle) scheme more aggressively on data
  log types. See. get_ssr_segement()

577e349514 f2fs: prevent checkpoint once any IO failure is detected
This patch enhances the checkpoint routine to cope with IO errors.

Basically f2fs detects IO errors from end_io_write, and the errors are able to
be occurred during one of data, node, and meta page writes.

In the previous code, when an IO error is occurred during writes, f2fs sets a
flag, CP_ERROR_FLAG, in the raw ckeckpoint buffer which will be written to disk.
Afterwards, write_checkpoint() will check the flag and remount f2fs as a
read-only (ro) mode.

However, even once f2fs is remounted as a ro mode, dirty checkpoint pages are
freely able to be written to disk by flusher or kswapd in background.
In such a case, after cold reboot, f2fs would restore the checkpoint data having
CP_ERROR_FLAG, resulting in disabling write_checkpoint and remounting f2fs as
a ro mode again.

Therefore, let's prevent any checkpoint page (meta) writes once an IO error is
occurred, and remount f2fs as a ro mode right away at that moment.

127e670abf f2fs: add checkpoint operations
This adds functions required by the checkpoint operations.

Basically, f2fs adopts a roll-back model with checkpoint blocks written in the
CP area. The checkpoint procedure includes as follows.

- write_checkpoint()
1. block_operations() freezes VFS calls.
2. submit cached bios.
3. flush_nat_entries() writes NAT pages updated by dirty NAT entries.
4. flush_sit_entries() writes SIT pages updated by dirty SIT entries.
5. do_checkpoint() writes,
  - checkpoint block (#0)
  - orphan inode blocks
  - summary blocks made by active logs
  - checkpoint block (copy of #0)
6. unblock_opeations()

In order to provide an address space for meta pages, f2fs_sb_info has a special
inode, namely meta_inode. This patch also adds the address space operations for
meta_inode.
