For profiles other than RAID56, __btrfs_map_block() returns @map_length
as min(stripe_end, logical + *length), which is also the same result
from btrfs_get_io_geometry().
But for RAID56, __btrfs_map_block() returns @map_length as stripe_len.
This strange behavior is going to hurt incoming bio split at
btrfs_map_bio() time, as we will use @map_length as bio split size.
Fix this behavior by returning @map_length by the same calculation as
for other profiles.

The inode cache feature was removed in kernel 5.11, and we no longer have
any code that reads from or writes to inode caches. We may still mount a
filesystem that has inode caches, but they are ignored.
Remove the check for an inode cache from btrfs_is_free_space_inode(),
since we no longer have code to trigger reads from an inode cache or
writes to an inode cache. The check at send.c is still needed, because
in case we find a filesystem with an inode cache, we must ignore it.
Also leave the checks at tree-checker.c, as they are sanity checks.
This eliminates a dead branch and reduces the amount of code since it's
in an inline function.

Commit 6f93e834fa seemingly inadvertently moved the code responsible
for flagging the filesystem as having BIG_METADATA to a place where
setting the flag was essentially lost. This means that
filesystems created with kernels containing this bug (starting with 5.15)
can potentially be mounted by older (pre-3.4) kernels. In reality
chances for this happening are low because there are other incompat
flags introduced in the mean time. Still the correct behavior is to set
INCOMPAT_BIG_METADATA flag and persist this in the superblock.

There are file attributes inherited from previous ext2 SETFLAGS/GETFLAGS
and later from XFLAGS interfaces, now commonly found under the
'fileattr' API. This corresponds to the individual inode bits and that's
part of the on-disk format, so this is suitable for the protocol. The
other interfaces contain a lot of cruft or bits that btrfs does not
support yet.
Currently the value is u64 and matches btrfs_inode_item. Not all the
bits can be set by ioctls (like NODATASUM or READONLY), but we can send
them over the protocol and leave it up to the receiving side what and
how to apply.
As some of the flags, eg. IMMUTABLE, can prevent any further changes,
the receiving side needs to understand that and apply the changes in the
right order, or possibly with some intermediate steps. This should be
easier, future proof and simpler on the protocol layer than implementing
in kernel.

When cow_file_range() fails in the middle of the allocation loop, it
unlocks the pages but leaves the ordered extents intact. Thus, we need
to call btrfs_cleanup_ordered_extents() to finish the created ordered
extents.
Also, we need to call end_extent_writepage() if locked_page is available
because btrfs_cleanup_ordered_extents() never processes the region on
the locked_page.
Furthermore, we need to set the mapping as error if locked_page is
unavailable before unlocking the pages, so that the errno is properly
propagated to the user space.

While we debug the issue, we found running fstests generic/551 on 5GB
non-zoned null_blk device in the emulated zoned mode also had a
similar hung issue.
Also, we can reproduce the same symptom with an error injected
cow_file_range() setup.
The hang occurs when cow_file_range() fails in the middle of
allocation. cow_file_range() called from do_allocation_zoned() can
split the give region ([start, end]) for allocation depending on
current block group usages. When btrfs can allocate bytes for one part
of the split regions but fails for the other region (e.g. because of
-ENOSPC), we return the error leaving the pages in the succeeded regions
locked. Technically, this occurs only when @unlock == 0. Otherwise, we
unlock the pages in an allocated region after creating an ordered
extent.
Considering the callers of cow_file_range(unlock=0) won't write out
the pages, we can unlock the pages on error exit from
cow_file_range(). So, we can ensure all the pages except @locked_page
are unlocked on error case.
In summary, cow_file_range now behaves like this:
- page_started == 1 (return value)
- All the pages are unlocked. IO is started.
- unlock == 1
- All the pages except @locked_page are unlocked in any case
- unlock == 0
- On success, all the pages are locked for writing out them
- On failure, all the pages except @locked_page are unlocked

We only allow such writeback from kswapd, not from direct memory
reclaim, and so it is rarely used. When it comes from kswapd, it is
effectively random dirty page shoot-down, which is horrible for IO
patterns. We can rely on background writeback to clean all dirty pages
in an efficient way and not let it be interrupted by kswapd.

Btrfs currently limits direct I/O reads to a single sector, which goes
back to commit c329861da4 ("Btrfs: don't allocate a separate csums
array for direct reads") from Josef. That commit changes the direct I/O
code to ".. use the private part of the io_tree for our csums.", but ten
years later that isn't how checksums for direct reads work, instead they
use a csums allocation on a per-btrfs_dio_private basis (which have their
own performance problem for small I/O, but that will be addressed later).
There is no fundamental limit in btrfs itself to limit the I/O size
except for the size of the checksum array that scales linearly with
the number of sectors in an I/O. Pick a somewhat arbitrary limit of
256 limits, which matches what the buffered reads typically see as
the upper limit as the limit for direct I/O as well.
This significantly improves direct read performance. For example a fio
run doing 1 MiB aio reads with a queue depth of 1 roughly triples the
throughput:
Baseline:
READ: bw=65.3MiB/s (68.5MB/s), 65.3MiB/s-65.3MiB/s (68.5MB/s-68.5MB/s), io=19.1GiB (20.6GB), run=300013-300013msec

Before we enter raid56_parity_recover(), we have triggered some metadata
write for the full stripe 38928384, this leads to us to read all the
sectors from disk.
Furthermore, btrfs raid56 write will cache its calculated P/Q sectors to
avoid unnecessary read.
This means, for that full stripe, after any partial write, we will have
stale data, along with P/Q calculated using that stale data.
Thankfully due to patch "btrfs: only write the sectors in the vertical stripe
which has data stripes" we haven't submitted all the corrupted P/Q to disk.
When we really need to recover certain range, aka in
raid56_parity_recover(), we will use the cached rbio, along with its
cached sectors (the full stripe is all cached).
This explains why we have no event raid56_scrub_read_recover()
triggered.
Since we have the cached P/Q which is calculated using the stale data,
the recovered one will just be stale.
In our particular test case, it will always return the same incorrect
metadata, thus causing the same error message "parent transid verify
failed on 39010304 wanted 9 found 7" again and again.
[BTRFS DESTRUCTIVE RMW PROBLEM]
Test case btrfs/125 (and above workload) always has its trouble with
the destructive read-modify-write (RMW) cycle:
0 32K 64K
Data1: | Good | Good |
Data2: | Bad | Bad |
Parity: | Good | Good |
In above case, if we trigger any write into Data1, we will use the bad
data in Data2 to re-generate parity, killing the only chance to recovery
Data2, thus Data2 is lost forever.
This destructive RMW cycle is not specific to btrfs RAID56, but there
are some btrfs specific behaviors making the case even worse:
- Btrfs will cache sectors for unrelated vertical stripes.
In above example, if we're only writing into 0~32K range, btrfs will
still read data range (32K ~ 64K) of Data1, and (64K~128K) of Data2.
This behavior is to cache sectors for later update.
Incidentally commit d4e28d9b5f ("btrfs: raid56: make steal_rbio()
subpage compatible") has a bug which makes RAID56 to never trust the
cached sectors, thus slightly improve the situation for recovery.
Unfortunately, follow up fix "btrfs: update stripe_sectors::uptodate in
steal_rbio" will revert the behavior back to the old one.
- Btrfs raid56 partial write will update all P/Q sectors and cache them
This means, even if data at (64K ~ 96K) of Data2 is free space, and
only (96K ~ 128K) of Data2 is really stale data.
And we write into that (96K ~ 128K), we will update all the parity
sectors for the full stripe.
This unnecessary behavior will completely kill the chance of recovery.
Thankfully, an unrelated optimization "btrfs: only write the sectors
in the vertical stripe which has data stripes" will prevent
submitting the write bio for untouched vertical sectors.
That optimization will keep the on-disk P/Q untouched for a chance for
later recovery.
[FIX]
Although we have no good way to completely fix the destructive RMW
(unless we go full scrub for each partial write), we can still limit the
damage.
With patch "btrfs: only write the sectors in the vertical stripe which
has data stripes" now we won't really submit the P/Q of unrelated
vertical stripes, so the on-disk P/Q should still be fine.
Now we really need to do is just drop all the cached sectors when doing
recovery.
By this, we have a chance to read the original P/Q from disk, and have a
chance to recover the stale data, while still keep the cache to speed up
regular write path.
In fact, just dropping all the cache for recovery path is good enough to
allow the test case btrfs/125 along with the small script to pass
reliably.
The lack of metadata write after the degraded mount, and forced metadata
COW is saving us this time.
So this patch will fix the behavior by not trust any cache in
__raid56_parity_recover(), to solve the problem while still keep the
cache useful.
But please note that this test pass DOES NOT mean we have solved the
destructive RMW problem, we just do better damage control a little
better.

the following change of the number of calls to btrfs_block_rsv_release:
Before this change:

Btrfs on-disk format has reserved the first 1MiB for the primary super
block (at 64KiB offset) and bootloaders may also use this space.
This behavior is only introduced since v4.1 btrfs-progs release,
although kernel can ensure we never touch the reserved range of super
blocks, it's better to inform the end users, and a balance will resolve
the problem.

There's a reserved space on each device of size 1MiB that can be used by
bootloaders or to avoid accidental overwrite. Use a symbolic constant
with the explaining comment instead of hard coding the value and
multiple comments.
Note: since btrfs-progs v4.1, mkfs.btrfs will reserve the first 1MiB for
the primary super block (at offset 64KiB), until then the range could
have been used by mistake. Kernel has been always respecting the 1MiB
range for writes.

For all non-RAID56 profiles, we can use btrfs_raid_array[].ncopies

there's no table value for that.
For RAID10 there's a change from sub_stripes to ncopies. The values are
the same but semantically we want to use number of copies, as this is
what btrfs_num_copies does.
