This turns off readhead action of metadata file if nilfs_mdt_get_block

Previously, this function took an status code to return possible error
codes. The ("nilfs2: add local variable to cache the number of clean
segments") patch removed the possibility to return errors.
So, this simplifies the function definition to make it directly return
the number of clean segments.

Will displace nilfs_mdt_read_inode_direct function with an individual

Previously, nilfs_bmap_add_blocks() and nilfs_bmap_sub_blocks() called
mark_inode_dirty() after they changed the number of data blocks.
This moves these calls outside bmap outermost functions like
nilfs_bmap_insert() or nilfs_bmap_truncate().
This will mitigate overhead for truncate or delete operation since
they repeatedly remove set of blocks. Nearly 10 percent improvement
was observed for removal of a large file:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/test/aaa bs=1M count=512
# time rm /test/aaa
real 2.968s -> 2.705s
Further optimization may be possible by eliminating these
mark_inode_dirty() uses though I avoid mixing separate changes here.

Since metadata file routines mark the inode dirty after they
successfully changed bmap objects, nilfs_mdt_mark_dirty() calls in
nilfs_bmap_add_blocks() and nilfs_bmap_sub_blocks() are redundant.
This removes these overlapping calls from the bmap routines.

lock_buffer() and unlock_buffer() uses in btree.c are eliminable
because btree functions gain buffer heads through nilfs_btnode_get(),
which never returns an on-the-fly buffer.
Although nilfs_clear_dirty_page() and nilfs_copy_back_pages() in
nilfs_commit_gcdat_inode() juggle btree node buffers of DAT, this is
safe because these operations are protected by a log writer lock or
the metadata file semaphore of DAT.

This lock is eliminable because inodes on the buffer can be updated

The current btree lookup routines make a kernel oops when detected
inconsistency in btree blocks. These routines should instead return a

This fixes an -rc1 regression brought by the commit:
1cf58fa840472ec7df6bf2312885949ebb308853 ("nilfs2: shorten freeze
period due to GC in write operation v3").
Although the patch moved out a function call of
nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() to nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments() from
nilfs_ioctl_prepare_clean_segments(), it didn't move corresponding
cleanup job needed for the error case.
This will move the missing cleanup job to the destination function.

This fixes a kernel oops reported by Markus Trippelsdorf in the email
titled "[NILFS users] kernel Oops while running nilfs_cleanerd".
The oops was caused by a bug of error path in
nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() function, which was inlined in
nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments().
nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks checks duplication of blocks which will be
moved in garbage collection. But, the check should have be done
within nilfs_ioctl_move_inode_block() to prevent list corruption among
buffers storing the target blocks.
To fix the kernel oops, this moves forward the duplication check
before the list insertion.
I also tested this for stable trees [2.6.30, 2.6.31].

When nilfs flushes out dirty data to reduce memory pressure, creation
of checkpoints is wrongly postponed. This bug causes irregular
checkpoint creation especially in small footprint systems.
To correct this issue, a timer for the checkpoint creation has to be
continued if a log writer does not create a checkpoint.
This will do the correction.

Bruno Prémont and Dunphy, Bill noticed me that NILFS will certainly
hang on ARM-based targets.
I found this was caused by an underflow of dirty pages counter. A
b-tree cache routine was marking page dirty without adjusting page
account information.
This fixes the dirty page accounting leak and resolves the hang on
arm-based targets.

This will fix file system corruption which infrequently happens after
mount. The problem was reported from users with the title "[NILFS
users] Fail to mount NILFS." (Message-ID:
<200908211918.34720.yuri@itinteg.net>), and so forth. I've also
experienced the corruption multiple times on kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31.
The problem turned out to be caused due to discordance between
mapping->nrpages of a btree node cache and the actual number of pages
hung on the cache; if the mapping->nrpages becomes zero even as it has
pages, truncate_inode_pages() returns without doing anything. Usually
this is harmless except it may cause page leak, but garbage collection
fairly infrequently sees a stale page remained in the btree node cache
of DAT (i.e. disk address translation file of nilfs), and induces the
corruption.
I identified a missing initialization in btree node caches was the
root cause. This corrects the bug.
I've tested this for kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31.

Actually, nilfs is NOT a filesystem came from other operating systems,
but a filesystem created purely for Linux. Nor is it a flash
filesystem but that for generic block devices.

The current btree code is written so that btree functions call dat
operations via wrapper functions in bmap.c when they allocate, free,
or modify virtual block addresses.
This abstraction requires additional function calls and causes
frequent call of nilfs_bmap_get_dat() function since it is used in the
every wrapper function.
This removes the wrapper functions and makes them available from
btree.c and direct.c, which will increase the opportunity of
compiler optimization.

This is a re-revised patch to shorten freeze period.
This version include a fix of the bug Konishi-san mentioned last time.
When GC is runnning, GC moves live block to difference segments.
Copying live blocks into memory is done in a transaction,
however it is not necessarily to be in the transaction.
This patch will get the nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() out from
transaction lock and put it before the transaction.
I ran sysbench fileio test against nilfs partition.
I copied some DVD/CD images and created snapshot to create live blocks
before starting the benchmark.
Followings are summary of rc8 and rc8 w/ the patch of per-request
statistics, which is min/max and avg. I ran each test three times and
bellow is average of those numers.
According to this benchmark result, average time is slightly degrated.
However, worstcase (max) result is significantly improved.
This can address a few seconds write freeze.

This removes nilfs_write_super and commit super block in nilfs
internal thread, instead of periodic write_super callback.
VFS layer calls ->write_super callback periodically. However,
it looks like that calling back is ommited when disk I/O is busy.
And when cleanerd (nilfs GC) is runnig, disk I/O tend to be busy thus
nilfs superblock is not synchronized as nilfs designed.
To avoid it, syncing superblock by nilfs thread instead of pdflush.
