Subject: [PATCH RFC] ext3 data=guarded v5

Hello everyone,

I've rediffed the ext3 data=guarded code against Linus' current git
tree, and worked in most of Jan's suggestions:

The rbtree is gone in favor of a simple list, and O_DIRECT is fixed up.

I didn't consolidate the data=guarded address space operations with
either ordered or writeback, I think that should be a separate patch
later on when everything is working.

I also didn't drop the filemap_write_and_wait before truncate.  There is
room for optimization there, and I think we can get rid of it
completely.  But this does work for starters.

This is only lightly tested, please treat gently for a bit:

ext3 data=ordered mode makes sure that data blocks are on disk before
the metadata that references them, which avoids files full of garbage
or previously deleted data after a crash.  It does this by adding every dirty
buffer onto a list of things that must be written before a commit.

This makes every fsync write out all the dirty data on the entire FS, which
has high latencies and is generally much more expensive than it needs to be.

Another way to avoid exposing stale data after a crash is to wait until
after the data buffers are written before updating the on-disk record
of the file's size.  If we crash before the data IO is done, i_size
doesn't yet include the new blocks and no stale data is exposed.

This patch adds the delayed i_size update to ext3, along with a new
mount option (data=guarded) to enable it.  The basic mechanism works like
this:

* Change block_write_full_page to take an end_io handler as a parameter.
This allows us to make an end_io handler that queues buffer heads for
a workqueue where the real work of updating the on disk i_size is done.

* Add a list to the in-memory ext3 inode for tracking data=guarded
buffer heads that are waiting to be sent to disk.

* Add an ext3 guarded write_end call to add buffer heads for newly
allocated blocks into the list.  If we have a newly allocated block that is
filling a hole inside i_size, this is done as an old style data=ordered write
instead.

* Add an ext3 guarded writepage call that uses a special buffer head
end_io handler for buffers that are marked as guarded.  Again, if we find
newly allocated blocks filling holes, they are sent through data=ordered
instead of data=guarded.

* When a guarded IO finishes, kick a per-FS workqueue to do the
on disk i_size updates.  The workqueue function must be very careful.  We only
update the on disk i_size if all of the IO between the old on disk i_size and
the new on disk i_size is complete.  The on disk i_size is incrementally
updated to the largest safe value every time an IO completes.

* When we start tracking guarded buffers on a given inode, we put the
inode into ext3's orphan list.  This way if we do crash, the file will
be truncated back down to the on disk i_size and we'll free any blocks that
were not completely written.  The inode is removed from the orphan list
only after all the guarded buffers are done.
