Add a bt_nr_sectors to track the number of sector in each buftarg, and
replace the check that hard codes sb_dblock in xfs_buf_map_verify with
this new value so that it is correct for non-ddev buftargs. The
RT buftarg only has a superblock in the first block, so it is unlikely
to trigger this, or are we likely to ever have enough blocks in the
in-memory buftargs, but we might as well get the check right.

Our goal is to move towards enabling vmalloc-huge by default on arm64 so
as to reduce TLB pressure. Therefore, we need a way to analyze the portion
of block mappings in vmalloc space we can get on a production system; this
can be done through ptdump, but currently we disable vmalloc-huge if
CONFIG_PTDUMP_DEBUGFS is on. The reason is that lazy freeing of kernel
pagetables via vmap_try_huge_pxd() may race with ptdump, so ptdump
may dereference a bogus address.
To solve this, we need to synchronize ptdump_walk() and ptdump_check_wx()
with pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page().
Since this race is very unlikely to happen in practice, we do not want to
penalize the vmalloc pagetable tearing path by taking the init_mm
mmap_lock. Therefore, we use static keys. ptdump_walk() and
ptdump_check_wx() are the pagetable walkers; they will enable the static
key - upon observing that, the vmalloc pagetable tearing path will get
patched in with an mmap_read_lock/unlock sequence. A combination of the
patched-in mmap_read_lock/unlock, the acquire semantics of
static_branch_inc(), and the barriers in __flush_tlb_kernel_pgtable()
ensures that ptdump will never get a hold on the address of a freed PMD
or PTE table.
We can verify the correctness of the algorithm via the following litmus
test (thanks to James Houghton and Will Deacon):

Neoverse-V3AE advertises support for BBML2 and is known to not raise
conflict aborts. So add it to the BBML2_NOABORT allow list.
However, just like Neoverse-V3, Neoverse-V3AE r0p0 and r0p1 suffer from
erratum #3053180, for which the workaround is to always observe
break-before-make requirements for affected revisions. Therefore only
add to the allow list from r0p2 onwards.

Handle the case when the aux buffer is going to be full and
data needs to be written to the data file. perf_aux_output_begin()
function checks if there is enough space depending on the values of
aux_wakeup and aux_watermark which is part of "struct perf_buffer".
Inorder to maintain where to write to aux buffer, add two fields
to "struct vpa_pmu_buf". Field "threshold" to indicate total possible
DTL entries that can be contained in aux buffer and field "full" to
indicate anytime when buffer is full. In perf_aux_output_end, there
is check to see if wake up is needed based on aux head value.
In vpa_dtl_capture_aux(), check if there is enough space to contain the
DTL data. If not, save the data for available memory and set full to true.
Set head of private aux to zero when buffer is full so that next data
will be copied to beginning of the buffer. The address used for copying
to aux is "aux_copy_buf + buf->head". So once buffer is full, set head
to zero, so that next time it will be written from start of the buffer.

vpa dtl pmu has one hrtimer added per vpa-dtl pmu thread. When the
hrtimer expires, in the timer handler, code is added to save the DTL
data to perf event record via vpa_dtl_capture_aux() function.
The DTL (Dispatch Trace Log) contains information
about dispatch/preempt, enqueue time etc. We directly copy the DTL
buffer data as part of auxiliary buffer. Data will be written to
disk only when the allocated buffer is full.
By this approach, all the DTL data will be present as-is in the
perf.data. The data will be post-processed in perf tools side when doing
perf report/perf script and this will avoid time taken to create samples
in the kernel space.
To corelate each DTL entry with other events across CPU's, we need to
map timebase from "struct dtl_entry" which phyp provides with boot
timebase. This also needs timebase frequency. Define "struct boottb_freq"
to save these details.
Added changes to capture the Dispatch Trace Log details to AUX buffer
in vpa_dtl_dump_sample_data(). Boot timebase and frequency needs to be
saved only at once, added field to indicate this as part of
"vpa_pmu_buf" structure.
perf_aux_output_begin: This function is called before writing to AUX
area. This returns the pointer to aux area private structure, ie
"struct vpa_pmu_buf". The function obtains the output handle
(used in perf_aux_output_end). when capture completes in
vpa_dtl_capture_aux(), call perf_aux_output_end() to commit the recorded
data. perf_aux_output_end() is called to move the aux->head of
"struct perf_buffer" to indicate size of data in aux buffer.
aux_tail will be moved in perf tools side when writing the data from
aux buffer to perf.data file in disk.
It is responsiblity of PMU driver to make sure data is copied between
perf_aux_output_begin and perf_aux_output_end.

DTL data
vpa dtl pmu has one hrtimer added per vpa-dtl pmu thread. When the
hrtimer expires, in the timer handler, code is added to save the DTL
data to perf event record. DTL (Dispatch Trace Log) contains information
about dispatch/preempt, enqueue time etc. We directly copy the DTL
buffer data as part of auxiliary buffer and it will be postprocessed
later. To enable the support for aux buffer, add the PMU callbacks for
setup_aux and free_aux.
In setup_aux, set up pmu-private data structures for an AUX
area. rb_alloc_aux uses "alloc_pages_node" and returns pointer to each
page address. Map these pages to contiguous space using vmap and use
that as base address. The aux private data structure ie,
"struct vpa_pmu_buf" mainly saves:
1. buf->base: aux buffer base address
2. buf->head: offset from base address where data will be written to.
3. buf->size: Size of allocated memory
free_aux will free pmu-private AUX data structures.

The pseries Shared Processor Logical Partition(SPLPAR) machines
can retrieve a log of dispatch and preempt events from the
hypervisor using data from Disptach Trace Log(DTL) buffer.
With this information, user can retrieve when and why each dispatch &
preempt has occurred. Added an interface to expose the Virtual Processor
Area(VPA) DTL counters via perf.
The following events are available and exposed in sysfs:
vpa_dtl/dtl_cede/ - Trace voluntary (OS initiated) virtual processor waits
vpa_dtl/dtl_preempt/ - Trace time slice preempts
vpa_dtl/dtl_fault/ - Trace virtual partition memory page faults.
vpa_dtl/dtl_all/ - Trace all (dtl_cede/dtl_preempt/dtl_fault)
Added interface defines supported event list, config fields for the
event attributes and their corresponding bit values which are exported
via sysfs. User could use the standard perf tool to access perf events
exposed via vpa-dtl pmu.
The VPA DTL PMU counters do not interrupt on overflow or generate any
PMI interrupts. Therefore, the kernel needs to poll the counters, added
hrtimer code to do that. The timer interval can be provided by user via
sample_period field in nano seconds. There is one hrtimer added per
vpa-dtl pmu thread.
To ensure there are no other conflicting dtl users (example: debugfs dtl
or /proc/powerpc/vcpudispatch_stats), interface added code to use
"down_write_trylock" call to take the dtl_access_lock. The dtl_access_lock
is defined in dtl.h file. Also added global reference count variable called
"dtl_global_refc", to ensure dtl data can be captured per-cpu. Code also
added global lock called "dtl_global_lock" to avoid race condition.

Currently the error handling of run_delalloc_nocow() modifies
@cur_offset to handle different parts of the delalloc range.
However the error handling can always be split into 3 parts:
1) The range with ordered extents allocated (OE cleanup)
We have to cleanup the ordered extents and unlock the folios.
2) The range that have been cleaned up (skip)
For now it's only for the range of fallback_to_cow().
We should not touch it at all.
3) The range that is not yet touched (untouched)
We have to unlock the folios and clear any reserved space.
This 3 ranges split has the same principle as cow_file_range(), however
the NOCOW/COW handling makes the above 3 range split much more complex:
a) Failure immediately after a successful OE allocation
Thus no @cow_start nor @cow_end set.
start cur_offset end
| OE cleanup | untouched |
b) Failure after hitting a COW range but before calling
fallback_to_cow()
start cow_start cur_offset end
| OE Cleanup | untouched |
c) Failure to call fallback_to_cow()
start cow_start cow_end end
| OE Cleanup | skip | untouched |
Instead of modifying @cur_offset, do proper range calculation for
OE-cleanup and untouched ranges using above 3 cases with proper range
charts.
This avoid updating @cur_offset, as it will an extra output for debug
purposes later, and explain the behavior easier.

Add ref_tracker infrastructure for struct btrfs_delayed_node.
It is a response to the largest btrfs related crash in our fleet. We're
seeing soft lockups in btrfs_kill_all_delayed_nodes() that seem to be a
result of delayed_nodes not being released properly.
A ref_tracker object is allocated on reference count increases and freed
on reference count decreases. The ref_tracker object stores a stack
trace of where it is allocated. The ref_tracker_dir object is embedded
in btrfs_delayed_node and keeps track of all current and some old/freed
ref_tracker objects. When a leak is detected we can print the stack
traces for all ref_trackers that have not yet been freed.
Here is a common example of taking a reference to a delayed_node and
freeing it with ref_tracker.
struct btrfs_ref_tracker tracker;
struct btrfs_delayed_node *node;
node = btrfs_get_delayed_node(inode, &tracker);
// use delayed_node...
btrfs_release_delayed_node(node, &tracker);
There are two special cases where the delayed_node reference is "long
lived", meaning that the thread that takes the reference and the thread
that releases the reference are different. The 'inode_cache_tracker'
tracks the delayed_node stored in btrfs_inode. The 'node_list_tracker'
tracks the delayed_node stored in the btrfs_delayed_root
node_list/prepare_list. These trackers are embedded in the
btrfs_delayed_node.
btrfs_ref_tracker and btrfs_ref_tracker_dir are wrappers that either
compile to the corresponding ref_tracker structs or empty structs
depending on CONFIG_BTRFS_DEBUG. There are also btrfs wrappers for
the ref_tracker API.

Currently we manually check the block size against 3 different values:
- 4K
- PAGE_SIZE
- MIN_BLOCKSIZE
Those 3 values can match or differ from each other. This makes it
pretty complex to output the supported block sizes.
Considering we're going to add block size > page size support soon, this
can make the support block size sysfs attribute much harder to
implement.
To make it easier, factor out a helper, btrfs_supported_blocksize() to
do a simple check for the block size.
Then utilize it in the two locations:
- btrfs_validate_super()
This is very straightforward
- supported_sectorsizes_show()
Iterate through all valid block sizes, and only output supported ones.
This is to make future full range block sizes support much easier.

[BEHAVIOR DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COMPRESSION ALGOS]
Currently LZO compression algorithm will check if we're making the
compressed data larger after compressing more than 2 blocks.
But zlib and zstd do the same checks after compressing more than 8192
bytes.
This is not a big deal, but since we're already supporting larger block
size (e.g. 64K block size if page size is also 64K), this check is not
suitable for all block sizes.
For example, if our page and block size are both 16KiB, and after the
first block compressed using zlib, the resulted compressed data is
slightly larger than 16KiB, we will immediately abort the compression.
This makes zstd and zlib compression algorithms to behave slightly
different from LZO, which only aborts after compressing two blocks.
[ENHANCEMENT]
To unify the behavior, only abort the compression after compressing at
least two blocks.

The hint block group selection in the extent allocator is wrong in the
first place, as it can select the dedicated data relocation block group for
the normal data allocation.
Since we separated the normal data space_info and the data relocation
space_info, we can easily identify a block group is for data relocation or
not. Do not choose it for the normal data allocation.

If you run a workload with:
- a cgroup that does tons of parallel data reading, with a working set
much larger than its memory limit
- a second cgroup that writes relatively fewer files, with overwrites,
with no memory limit
(see full code listing at the bottom for a reproducer)
Then what quickly occurs is:
- we have a large number of threads trying to read the csum tree
- we have a decent number of threads deleting csums running delayed refs
- we have a large number of threads in direct reclaim and thus high
memory pressure
The result of this is that we writeback the csum tree repeatedly mid
transaction, to get back the extent_buffer folios for reclaim. As a
result, we repeatedly COW the csum tree for the delayed refs that are
deleting csums. This means repeatedly write locking the higher levels of
the tree.
As a result of this, we achieve an unpleasant priority inversion. We
have:
- a high degree of contention on the csum root node (and other upper
nodes) eb rwsem
- a memory starved cgroup doing tons of reclaim on CPU.
- many reader threads in the memory starved cgroup "holding" the sem
as readers, but not scheduling promptly. i.e., task __state == 0, but
not running on a cpu.
- btrfs_commit_transaction stuck trying to acquire the sem as a writer.
(running delayed_refs, deleting csums for unreferenced data extents)
This results in arbitrarily long transactions. This then results in
seriously degraded performance for any cgroup using the filesystem (the
victim cgroup in the script).
It isn't an academic problem, as we see this exact problem in production
at Meta with one cgroup over its memory limit ruining btrfs performance
for the whole system, stalling critical system services that depend on
btrfs syncs.
The underlying scheduling "problem" with global rwsems is sort of thorny
and apparently well known and was discussed at LPC 2024, for example.
As a result, our main lever in the short term is just trying to reduce
contention on our various rwsems with an eye to reducing the frequency
of write locking, to avoid disabling the read lock fast acquisition path.
Luckily, it seems likely that many reads are for old extents written
many transactions ago, and that for those we *can* in fact search the
commit root. The commit_root_sem only gets taken write once, near the
end of transaction commit, no matter how much memory pressure there is,
so we have much less contention between readers and writers.
This change detects when we are trying to read an old extent (according
to extent map generation) and then wires that through bio_ctrl to the
btrfs_bio, which unfortunately isn't allocated yet when we have this
information. When we go to lookup the csums in lookup_bio_sums we can
check this condition on the btrfs_bio and do the commit root lookup
accordingly.
Note that a single bio_ctrl might collect a few extent_maps into a single
bio, so it is important to track a maximum generation across all the
extent_maps used for each bio to make an accurate decision on whether it
is valid to look in the commit root. If any extent_map is updated in the

Now that btrfs_zone_finish_endio_workfn() is directly calling
do_zone_finish() the only caller of btrfs_zone_finish_endio() is
btrfs_finish_one_ordered().
btrfs_finish_one_ordered() already has error handling in-place so
btrfs_zone_finish_endio() can return an error if the block group lookup
fails.
Also as btrfs_zone_finish_endio() already checks for zoned filesystems and
returns early, there's no need to do this in the caller.

btrfs_zone_finish_endio_workfn()
When btrfs_zone_finish_endio_workfn() is calling btrfs_zone_finish_endio()
it already has a pointer to the block group. Furthermore
btrfs_zone_finish_endio() does additional checks if the block group can be
finished or not.
But in the context of btrfs_zone_finish_endio_workfn() only the actual
call to do_zone_finish() is of interest, as the skipping condition when
there is still room to allocate from the block group cannot be checked.
Directly call do_zone_finish() on the block group.

Instead of having an if statement to check for regular and prealloc
extents first, process them in a block, and then following with an else
statement to check for an inline extent, check for an inline extent first,
process it and jump to the 'update_inode' label, allowing us to avoid
having the code for processing regular and prealloc extents inside a
block, reducing the high indentation level by one and making the code
easier to read and avoid line splittings too.

At replay_one_extent(), we can jump to the code that updates the file
extent range and updates the inode when processing a file extent item that
represents a hole and we don't have the NO_HOLES feature enabled. This
helps reduce the high indentation level by one in replay_one_extent() and
avoid splitting some lines to make the code easier to read.

In the replay_one_buffer() log tree walk callback we return errors to the
log tree walk caller and then the caller aborts the transaction, if we
have one, or turns the fs into error state if we don't have one. While
this reduces code it makes it harder to figure out where exactly an error
came from. So add the transaction aborts after every failure inside the
replay_one_buffer() callback and the functions it calls, making it as
fine grained as possible, so that it helps figuring out why failures
happen.

If read_alloc_one_name() we explicitly return -ENOMEM and currently that

We do several things while walking a log tree (for replaying and for
freeing a log tree) like reading extent buffers and cleaning them up,
but we don't immediately abort the transaction, or turn the fs into an
error state, when one of these things fails. Instead we the transaction
abort or turn the fs into error state in the caller of the entry point
function that walks a log tree - walk_log_tree() - which means we don't
get to know exactly where an error came from.
Improve on this by doing a transaction abort / turn fs into error state
after each such failure so that when it happens we have a better
understanding where the failure comes from. This deliberately leaves
the transaction abort / turn fs into error state in the callers of
walk_log_tree() as to ensure we don't get into an inconsistent state in
case we forget to do it deeper in call chain. It also deliberately does
not do it after errors from the calls to the callback defined in
struct walk_control::process_func(), as we will do it later on another
patch.

The spi chipselect limit SPI_CS_CNT_MAX was raised with commit
2f8c7c3715f2 ("spi: Raise limit on number of chip selects") from 4 to 16
to accommodate spi controllers with more than 4 chip selects, and then
later to 24 with commit 96893cdd4760 ("spi: Raise limit on number of
chip selects to 24").
Now that we removed SPI_CS_CNT_MAX limiting the chip selects of
controllers, we can reduce the amount of chip selects per device again
to 4, the original value.

Do not validate spi_controller::num_chipselect against SPI_CS_CNT_MAX
when parsing an spi device firmware node.
Firstly this is the wrong place, and this should be done while
registering/validating the controller. Secondly, there is no reason for
that check, as SPI_CS_CNT_MAX controls the amount of chipselects a
device may have, not a controller may have.
So drop that check as it needlessly limits controllers to SPI_CS_CNT_MAX
number of chipselects.
Likewise, drop the check for number of device chipselects larger than
controller's number of chipselects, as __spi_add_device() will already
catch that as either one of the chip selects will be out of range, or
there is a duplicate one.

There are several places where we need to iterate over a device's

Since we now use a device supplied value, add a check to make sure it
isn't more than we can support.
