[dm-devel] [RFC PATCH 8/9] xfs: thin block device reservation mechanism

Add block device reservation infrastructure to XFS. This primarily
consists of wrappers around the associated block device functions. This
mechanism provides the ability to reserve, release and provision a set
of blocks in the underlying block device.
The mechanism enables the filesystem to adopt a block reservation model
with the underlying device. In turn, this allows the filesystem to
identify when the underlying device is out of space and propagate an
error (-ENOSPC) gracefully before the device itself must handle the
condition. The latter typically involves a read-only state transition
and thus requires administrator intervention to resolve.

+ * Notes/Issues:
+ *
+ * - Reservation support depends on the '-o discard' mount option so freed
+ * extents are returned to the pool.
+ * - The absolute reservation value API is potentially racy. We can cover our
+ * own reservations/provisions with a mutex, but a delta reservation API might
+ * be better.
+ * - Local reservation accounting is not necessarily correct/accurate.
+ * Reservation leakage has been reproduced, particularly in ENOSPC conditions.
+ * The discard mechanism to return blocks to dm-thin has not been totally
+ * reliable either, which means filling, removing and filling an fs causes
+ * some space to be lost. This can be worked around with fstrim for the time
+ * being.
+ * - The locking in xfs_mod_fdblocks() is not quite correct/safe. Sleeping from
+ * invalid context BUG()'s are expected. Needs to be reworked.
+ * - Worst case reservation means each XFS filesystem block is considered a new
+ * dm block allocation. This translates to a significant amount of space given
+ * larger dm block sizes. For example, 4k XFS blocks to 64k dm blocks means
+ * we'll hit ENOSPC sooner and more frequently than typically expected.
+ * - The above also means large fallocate requests are problematic. Need to find
+ * a workaround for this. Perhaps a reduced reservation is safe for known
+ * contiguous extents? E.g., xfs_bmapi_write() w/ nimaps = 1;
+ * - The xfs_mod_fdblocks() implementation means the XFS reserve pool blocks are
+ * also reserved from the thin pool. XFS defaults to 8192 reserve pool blocks
+ * in most cases, which translates to 512MB of reserved space. This can be
+ * tuned with: 'xfs_io -xc "resblks <blks>" <mnt>'. Note that insufficient
+ * reserves will result in errors in unexpected areas of code (e.g., page
+ * discards on writeback, inode unlinked list removal failures, etc.).
+ * - The existing xfs_reserve_blocks() implementation is flaky and does not
+ * correctly reserve in the event of xfs_mod_fdblocks() failure. This will
+ * likely require some fixes independent of this feature. It also may depend
+ * on some kind of (currently undefined) "query available reservation" or
+ * "perform partial reservation" API to support partial XFS reserved blocks
+ * allocation.
