This patch adds support for quotas as a first class feature in ext4;
which is to say, the quota files are stored in hidden inodes as file
system metadata, instead of as separate files visible in the file system
directory hierarchy.
It is based on the proposal at:
https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Design_For_1st_Class_Quota_in_Ext4
This patch introduces a new feature - EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_QUOTA
which, when turned on, enables quota accounting at mount time
iteself. Also, the quota inodes are stored in two additional superblock
fields. Some changes introduced by this patch that should be pointed
out are:
1) Two new ext4-superblock fields - s_usr_quota_inum and
s_grp_quota_inum for storing the quota inodes in use.
2) Default quota inodes are: inode#3 for tracking userquota and inode#4
for tracking group quota. The superblock fields can be set to use
other inodes as well.
3) If the QUOTA feature and corresponding quota inodes are set in
superblock, the quota usage tracking is turned on at mount time. On
'quotaon' ioctl, the quota limits enforcement is turned
on. 'quotaoff' ioctl turns off only the limits enforcement in this
case.
4) When QUOTA feature is in use, the quota mount options 'quota',
'usrquota', 'grpquota' are ignored by the kernel.
5) mke2fs or tune2fs can be used to set the QUOTA feature and initialize
quota inodes. The default reserved inodes will not be visible to user
as regular files.
6) The quota-tools will need to be modified to support hidden quota
files on ext4. E2fsprogs will also include support for creating and
fixing quota files.
7) Support is only for the new V2 quota file format.

Ext4 does not support data journalling with delayed allocation enabled.
We even do not allow to mount the file system with delayed allocation
and data journalling enabled, however it can be set via FS_IOC_SETFLAGS
so we can hit the inode with EXT4_INODE_JOURNAL_DATA set even on file
system mounted with delayed allocation (default) and that's where
problem arises. The easies way to reproduce this problem is with the
following set of commands:
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdd
mount /dev/sdd /mnt/test1
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test1/file bs=1M count=4
chattr +j /mnt/test1/file
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test1/file bs=1M count=4 conv=notrunc
chattr -j /mnt/test1/file
Additionally it can be reproduced quite reliably with xfstests 272 and
269. In fact the above reproducer is a part of test 272.
To fix this we should ignore the EXT4_INODE_JOURNAL_DATA inode flag if
the file system is mounted with delayed allocation. This can be easily
done by fixing ext4_should_*_data() functions do ignore data journal
flag when delalloc is set (suggested by Ted). We also have to set the
appropriate address space operations for the inode (again, ignoring data
journal flag if delalloc enabled).
Additionally this commit introduces ext4_inode_journal_mode() function
because ext4_should_*_data() has already had a lot of common code and
this change is putting it all into one function so it is easier to
read.
Successfully tested with xfstests in following configurations:
delalloc + data=ordered
delalloc + data=writeback
data=journal
nodelalloc + data=ordered
nodelalloc + data=writeback
nodelalloc + data=journal

ext4_should_writeback_data() had an incorrect sequence of
tests to determine if it should return 0 or 1: in
particular, even in no-journal mode, 0 was being returned
for a non-regular-file inode.
This meant that, in non-journal mode, we would use
ext4_journalled_aops for directories, symlinks, and other
non-regular files. However, calling journalled aop
callbacks when there is no valid handle, can cause problems.
This would cause a kernel crash with Jan Kara's commit
2d859db3e4 ("ext4: fix data corruption in inodes with
journalled data"), because we now dereference 'handle' in
ext4_journalled_write_end().
I also added BUG_ONs to check for a valid handle in the
obviously journal-only aops callbacks.
I tested this running xfstests with a scratch device in
these modes:
- no-journal
- data=ordered
- data=writeback
- data=journal
All work fine; the data=journal run has many failures and a
crash in xfstests 074, but this is no different from a
vanilla kernel.

The block allocation code used to use jbd2_journal_get_undo_access as
a way to make changes that wouldn't show up until the commit took
place. The new multi-block allocation code has a its own way of
preventing newly freed blocks from getting reused until the commit
takes place (it avoids updating the buddy bitmaps until the commit is
done), so we don't need to use jbd2_journal_get_undo_access(), which
has extra overhead compared to jbd2_journal_get_write_access().
There was one last vestigal use of ext4_journal_get_undo_access() in
ext4_add_groupblocks(); change it to use ext4_journal_get_write_access()
and then remove the ext4_journal_get_undo_access() support.

It is not necessary to update [cm]time of quota file on each quota
file write and it wastes journal space and IO throughput with inode
writes. So just remove the updating from ext4_quota_write() and only

anything reliable from quota files while they are used by the kernel
anyway.

We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
is enabled. In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted. As a
result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
journal or by setting s_dirt. There are a few exceptions, most
notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.
This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
with a journal.

Allocate uninitialized extent before ext4 buffer write and
convert the extent to initialized after io completes.
The purpose is to make sure an extent can only be marked
initialized after it has been written with new data so
we can safely drop the i_mutex lock in ext4 DIO read without
exposing stale data. This helps to improve multi-thread DIO
read performance on high-speed disks.
Skip the nobh and data=journal mount cases to make things simple for now.

We found a problem with buffer head reference leaks when using an ext4
partition without a journal. In particular, calls to ext4_forget() would
not to a brelse() on the input buffer head, which will cause pages they
belong to to not be reclaimable.
Further investigation showed that all places where ext4_journal_forget() and
ext4_journal_revoke() are called are subject to the same problem. The patch
below changes __ext4_journal_forget/__ext4_journal_revoke to do an explicit
release of the buffer head when the journal handle isn't valid.

If there is no journal, ext4_should_writeback_data() should return
TRUE. This will fix ext4_set_aops() to set ext4_da_ops in the case of
delayed allocation; otherwise ext4_journaled_aops gets used by
default, which doesn't handle delayed allocation properly.
The advantage of using ext4_should_writeback_data() approach is that
it should handle nobh better as well.

Kumar for suggesting this approach.

This mount option is largely superfluous, and in fact the way it was
implemented was buggy; if a filesystem which did not have the extents
feature flag was mounted -o extents, the filesystem would attempt to
create and use extents-based file even though the extents feature flag
was not eabled. The simplest thing to do is to nuke the mount option
entirely. It's not all that useful to force the non-creation of new
extent-based files if the filesystem can support it.

A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run
without a journal. Since that time I've integrated the excellent
comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs. We're currently
running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without
a journal. It just so happens that running without a journal is
slightly faster for most everything.
We did
iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2
which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
to bypass the page cache. Results:
ext2 ext4, default ext4, no journal
initial writes 13.0 MB/s 15.4 MB/s 15.7 MB/s
rewrites 13.1 MB/s 15.6 MB/s 15.9 MB/s
reads 15.2 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s
re-reads 15.3 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s
random readers 5.6 MB/s 5.6 MB/s 5.7 MB/s
random writers 5.1 MB/s 5.3 MB/s 5.4 MB/s
So it seems that, so far, this was a useful exercise.

When considering how many journal credits are needed for modifying a
chunk of data, we need to account for the super block, inode block,
quota blocks and xattr block, indirect/index blocks, also, group bitmap
and group descriptor blocks for new allocation (including data and
indirect/index blocks). There are many places in ext4 do the calculation
on their own and often missed one or two meta blocks, and often they
assume single block allocation, and did not considering the multile
chunk of allocation case.
This patch is trying to cleanup current journal credit code, provides
some common helper funtion to calculate the journal credits, to be used
for writepage, writepages, DIO, fallocate, migration, defrag, and for
both nonextent and extent files.
This patch modified the writepage/write_begin credit caculation for
nonextent files, to use the new helper function. It also fixed the
problem that writepage on nonextent files did not consider the case
blocksize <pagesize, thus could possibelly need multiple block
allocation in a single transaction.
