This inode log item recovery failing the dinode verifier after
replaying the contents of the inode log item into the ondisk inode.
Looking back into what the kernel was doing at the time of the fs
shutdown, a thread was in the middle of running a series of
transactions, each of which committed changes to the inode.

At some point in the middle of that chain, an invalid (at least
according to the verifier) change was committed. Had the filesystem not
shut down in the middle of the chain, a subsequent transaction would
have corrected the invalid state and nobody would have noticed. But
that's not what happened here. Instead, the invalid inode state was
committed to the ondisk log, so log recovery tripped over it.

The actual defect here was an overzealous inode verifier, which was
fixed in a separate patch. This patch adds some transaction precommit
functions for CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=y mode so that we can detect these kinds
of transient errors at transaction commit time, where it's much easier
to find the root cause.

Adapt the generic btree cursor code to be able to create a btree whose
buffers come from a (presumably in-memory) buftarg with a header block
that's specific to in-memory btrees. We'll connect this to other parts
of online scrub in the next patches.

Note that in-memory btrees always have a block size matching the system
memory page size for efficiency reasons. There are also a few things we
need to do to finalize a btree update; that's covered in the next patch.

xfs: allow scrub to hook metadata updates in other writers

Certain types of filesystem metadata can only be checked by scanning
every file in the entire filesystem. Specific examples of this include
quota counts, file link counts, and reverse mappings of file extents.
Directory and parent pointer reconstruction may also fall into this
category. File scanning is much trickier than scanning AG metadata
because we have to take inode locks in the same order as the rest of
[VX]FS, we can't be holding buffer locks when we do that, and scanning
the whole filesystem takes time.

Earlier versions of the online repair patchset relied heavily on
fsfreeze as a means to quiesce the filesystem so that we could take
locks in the proper order without worrying about concurrent updates from
other writers. Reviewers of those patches opined that freezing the
entire fs to check and repair something was not sufficiently better than
unmounting to run fsck offline. I don't agree with that 100%, but the
message was clear: find a way to repair things that minimizes the
quiet period where nobody can write to the filesystem.

Generally, building btree indexes online can be split into two phases: a
collection phase where we compute the records that will be put into the
new btree; and a construction phase, where we construct the physical
btree blocks and persist them. While it's simple to hold resource locks
for the entirety of the two phases to ensure that the new index is
consistent with the rest of the system, we don't need to hold resource
locks during the collection phase if we have a means to receive live
updates of other work going on elsewhere in the system.

The goal of this patch, then, is to enable online fsck to learn about
metadata updates going on in other threads while it constructs a shadow
copy of the metadata records to verify or correct the real metadata. To
minimize the overhead when online fsck isn't running, we use srcu
notifiers because they prioritize fast access to the notifier call chain
(particularly when the chain is empty) at a cost to configuring
notifiers. Online fsck should be relatively infrequent, so this is
acceptable.

The intended usage model is fairly simple. Code that modifies a
metadata structure of interest should declare a xfs_hook_chain structure
in some well defined place, and call xfs_hook_call whenever an update
happens. Online fsck code should define a struct notifier_block and use
xfs_hook_add to attach the block to the chain, along with a function to
be called. This function should synchronize with the fsck scanner to
update whatever in-memory data the scanner is collecting. When
finished, xfs_hook_del removes the notifier from the list and waits for
them all to complete.

Originally, I selected srcu notifiers over blocking notifiers to
implement live hooks because they seemed to have fewer impacts to
scalability. The per-call cost of srcu_notifier_call_chain is higher
(19ns) than blocking_notifier_ (4ns) in the single threaded case, but
blocking notifiers use an rwsem to stabilize the list. Cacheline
bouncing for that rwsem is costly to runtime code when there are a lot
of CPUs running regular filesystem operations. If there are no hooks
installed, this is a total waste of CPU time.

Therefore, I stuck with srcu notifiers, despite trading off single
threaded performance for multithreaded performance. I also wasn't
thrilled with the very high teardown time for srcu notifiers, since the
caller has to wait for the next rcu grace period. This can take a long
time if there are a lot of CPUs.

Then I discovered the jump label implementation of static keys.

Jump labels use kernel code patching to replace a branch with a nop sled
when the key is disabled. IOWs, they can eliminate the overhead of
_call_chain when there are no hooks enabled. This makes blocking
notifiers competitive again -- scrub runs faster because teardown of the
chain is a lot cheaper, and runtime code only pays the rwsem locking
overhead when scrub is actually running.

With jump labels enabled, calls to empty notifier chains are elided from
the call sites when there are no hooks registered, which means that the
overhead is 0.36ns when fsck is not running. This is perfect for most
of the architectures that XFS is expected to run on (e.g. x86, powerpc,
arm64, s390x, riscv).

For architectures that don't support jump labels (e.g. m68k) the runtime
overhead of checking the static key is an atomic counter read. This
isn't great, but it's still cheaper than taking a shared rwsem.

xfs: create a big array data structure

Create a simple 'big array' data structure for storage of fixed-size
metadata records that will be used to reconstruct a btree index. For
repair operations, the most important operations are append, iterate,
and sort.

Earlier implementations of the big array used linked lists and suffered
from severe problems -- pinning all records in kernel memory was not a
good idea and frequently lead to OOM situations; random access was very
inefficient; and record overhead for the lists was unacceptably high at
40-60%.

Therefore, the big memory array relies on the 'xfile' abstraction, which
creates a memfd file and stores the records in page cache pages. Since
the memfd is created in tmpfs, the memory pages can be pushed out to
disk if necessary and we have a built-in usage limit of 50% of physical
memory.

xfs: minimize overhead of drain wakeups by using jump labels

To reduce the runtime overhead even further when online fsck isn't
running, use a static branch key to decide if we call wake_up on the
drain. For compilers that support jump labels, the call to wake_up is
replaced by a nop sled when nobody is waiting for intents to drain.

From my initial microbenchmarking, every transition of the static key
between the on and off states takes about 22000ns to complete; this is
paid entirely by the xfs_scrub process. When the static key is off
(which it should be when fsck isn't running), the nop sled adds an
overhead of approximately 0.36ns to runtime code. The post-atomic
lockless waiter check adds about 0.03ns, which is basically free.

For the few compilers that don't support jump labels, runtime code pays
the cost of calling wake_up on an empty waitqueue, which was observed to
be about 30ns. However, most architectures that have sufficient memory
and CPU capacity to run XFS also support jump labels, so this is not
much of a worry.

xfs: allow queued AG intents to drain before scrubbing

When a writer thread executes a chain of log intent items, the AG header
buffer locks will cycle during a transaction roll to get from one intent
item to the next in a chain. Although scrub takes all AG header buffer
locks, this isn't sufficient to guard against scrub checking an AG while
that writer thread is in the middle of finishing a chain because there's
no higher level locking primitive guarding allocation groups.

When there's a collision, cross-referencing between data structures
(e.g. rmapbt and refcountbt) yields false corruption events; if repair
is running, this results in incorrect repairs, which is catastrophic.

Fix this by adding to the perag structure the count of active intents
and make scrub wait until it has both AG header buffer locks and the
intent counter reaches zero.

One quirk of the drain code is that deferred bmap updates also bump and
drop the intent counter. A fundamental decision made during the design
phase of the reverse mapping feature is that updates to the rmapbt
records are always made by the same code that updates the primary
metadata. In other words, callers of bmapi functions expect that the
bmapi functions will queue deferred rmap updates.

Some parts of the reflink code queue deferred refcount (CUI) and bmap
(BUI) updates in the same head transaction, but the deferred work
manager completely finishes the CUI before the BUI work is started. As
a result, the CUI drops the intent count long before the deferred rmap
(RUI) update even has a chance to bump the intent count. The only way
to keep the intent count elevated between the CUI and RUI is for the BUI
to bump the counter until the RUI has been created.

A second quirk of the intent drain code is that deferred work items must
increment the intent counter as soon as the work item is added to the
transaction. When a BUI completes and queues an RUI, the RUI must
increment the counter before the BUI decrements it. The only way to
accomplish this is to require that the counter be bumped as soon as the
deferred work item is created in memory.

In the next patches we'll improve on this facility, but this patch
provides the basic functionality.

xfs: deprecate the V4 format

The V4 filesystem format contains known weaknesses in the on-disk format
that make metadata verification diffiult. In addition, the format does
not support dates past 2038 and will not be upgraded to do so. We
should start the process of retiring the old format to close off attack
surfaces and to encourage users to migrate onto V5.

Therefore, make XFS V4 support a configurable option. For the first
period it will be default Y in case some distributors want to withdraw
support early; for the second period it will be default N so that anyone
who wishes to continue support can do so; and after that, support will
be removed from the kernel. Dates for these events have been added to
the upstream kernel.

block: remove CONFIG_LBDAF

Currently support for 64-bit sector_t and blkcnt_t is optional on 32-bit
architectures. These types are required to support block device and/or
file sizes larger than 2 TiB, and have generally defaulted to on for
a long time. Enabling the option only increases the i386 tinyconfig
size by 145 bytes, and many data structures already always use
64-bit values for their in-core and on-disk data structures anyway,
so there should not be a large change in dynamic memory usage either.

Dropping this option removes a somewhat weird non-default config that
has cause various bugs or compiler warnings when actually used.

xfs: define fatal assert build time tunable

While configurable at runtime, the DEBUG mode assert failure
behavior is usually either desired or not for a particular
situation. For example, developers using kernel modules may prefer
for fatal asserts to remain disabled across module reloads while QE
engineers doing broad regression testing may prefer to have fatal
asserts enabled on boot to facilitate data collection for bug
reports.

To provide a compromise/convenience for developers, create a Kconfig
option that sets the default value of the DEBUG mode 'bug_on_assert'
sysfs tunable. The default behavior remains to trigger kernel BUGs
on assert failures to preserve existing behavior across kernel
configuration updates with DEBUG mode enabled.

xfs: introduce CONFIG_XFS_WARN

Running a CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG kernel in production environments is not
the best idea as it introduces significant overhead, can change
the behaviour of algorithms (such as allocation) to improve test
coverage, and (most importantly) panic the machine on non-fatal
errors.

There are many cases where all we want to do is run a
kernel with more bounds checking enabled, such as is provided by the
ASSERT() statements throughout the code, but without all the
potential overhead and drawbacks.

This patch converts all the ASSERT statements to evaluate as
WARN_ON(1) statements and hence if they fail dump a warning and a
stack trace to the log. This has minimal overhead and does not
change any algorithms, and will allow us to find strange "out of
bounds" problems more easily on production machines.

There are a few places where assert statements contain debug only
code. These are converted to be debug-or-warn only code so that we
still get all the assert checks in the code.
