Item writes are first stored in dirty blocks in the private version of
the mount's log tree. Local readers need to be sure to check the dirty
version of the mount's log tree to make sure that they see the result of
writes. Usually trees are found by walking the log tree items stored in
another btree in the super. The private dirty version of a mount's log
tree hasn't been committed yet and isn't visible in these items.
The forest uses its lock private data to track which lock has seen items
written and so should always check the local dirty log tree when
reading. The intent was to use the per-lock static forest_root for the
log tree to record that it had been marked by a write and was then
always used for reads.
We used storing the forest info's rid and testing for a non-zero
forest_root rid as the mechanism for always testing the dirty log root
during read. But we weren't setting the forest info rid as each
transaction opened. It was always 0 so readers never added the dirty
log tree for reading.
The fix is to use the more reliable indication that the log root has
items for us by testing the flag that all the bits have been set. Then
we're also sure to always set the rid/nr of the forest_info record of
our log tree, and the per-lock forest_root copy of it whenever we use
it.
This fixed spurious errors we were seeing as creates tried to read
the item they just wrote as memory reclaim freed locks.

File data allocations come from radix allocators which are populated by
the server before each client transation. It's possible to fully
consume the data allocator within one transaction if the number of dirty
metadata blocks is kept low. This could result in premature ENOSPC.
This was happening to the archive-light-cycle test. If the transactions
performed by previous tests lined up just right then the creation of the
initial test files could see ENOSPC and cause all sorts of nonsense in
the rest of the test, culminating in cmp commands stuck in offline
waits.
This introduces high and low data allocator water marks for
transactions. The server tries to fill data allocators for each
transaction to the high water mark and the client forces the commit of a
transaction if its data allocator falls below the low water mark.
The archive-light-cycle test now passes easily and we see the
trans_commit_data_alloc_low counter increasing during the test.

When we added the kernelcompat layer around the old and new readdir
interfaces there was some confusion in the old readdir interface filldir
arguments. We were passing in our scoutfs dent item struct pointer
instead of the filldir callback buf pointer. This prevented readdir
from working in older kernels because filldir would immediately see a
corrupt buf and return an error.
This renames the emit compat macro arguments to make them consistent
with the other calls and readdir now provides the correct pointer to the
emit wrapper.

The radix block next bit search could return a spurious -ENOENT if it
ran out of references in a parent block further down the tree. It needs
to bubble up to try the next ref in its parent so that it keeps
performing a depth-first search of the entire tree.
This lead to an assertion being tripped in _radix_merge. Getting an
early -ENOENT caused it to start searching from 0 again. When it's
iterating over a read-only input it could find the same leaf and try to
clear source bits that were already cleared.

The seq portion of radix block references is intended to differentiate
versions of a given block location over time. The current method of
incrementing the existing value as the block is dirtied is risky. It
means that every lineage of a block has the same sequence number
progression. Different trees referencing the same block over time could
get confused. It's more robust to have large random numbers. The
collision window is then evenly distributed over the 64bit space rather
than being bunched up all in in the initial seq values.

We were using bitmap_xor() to set and clear blocks of allocator bits at

An incorrect warning condition was added as fallocate was implemented.
It tried to warn against trying to read from the staging ioctl. But the
staging boolean is set on the inode when the staging ioctl has the inode
mutex. It protects against writes, but page reading doesn't use the
mutex. It's perfectly acceptable for reads to be attempted while the
staging ioctl is busy. We rely on it for a large read to consume
staging being written.
The warning caused reads to fail while the stager ioctl was working.
Typically this would hit read-ahead and just force sync reads. But it
could hit sync reads and cause EIO.

Back in ancient LSM times these functions to read and write the super
block reused the bio functions that LSM segment IO used. Each IO would
be performed with privately allocated pages and bios.
When we got rid of the LSM code we got rid of the bio functions. It was
quick and easy to transition super read/write to use buffer_heads. This
introduced sharing of the super's buffer_head between readers and
writers. First we saw concurrent readers being confused by the uptodate
bit and added a bunch of complexity to coordinate use of the uptodate
bit.
Now we're seeing the writer copy its super for writing into the buffer
that readers are using, causing crc failures on read. Let's not use
buffer_heads anymore (always good advice).
We added quick block functions to read and write small blocks with
private pages and bios. Use those here to read and write the super so
that readers and writers operate on their own buffers again.

Add two quick functions which perform IO on small fixed size 4K blocks

Callers have no interaction with each other. This matches the behaviour

We had a bug where we were creating extent lengths that were rounded up
to the size of the packed extent items instead of being limited by
i_size. As it happens the last setattr_more test would have found it if
I'd actually done the math to check that the extent length was correct.
We add an explicit offline blocks count test because that's what lead us
to notice that the offline extent length was wrong.

With the introduction of packed extent items the setattr_more ioctl had
to be careful not to try and dirty all the extent items in one
transaction. But it pulled the extent creation call up to high and was
doing it before some argument checks that were done after the inode was
refreshed by acquiring its lock. This moves the extent creation to be
done after the args are verified for the inode.

Forest item iteration allocates iterator positions for each tree root
it reads from. The postorder destruction of the iterator nodes wasn't
quite right because we were balancing the nodes as they were freed.
That can change parent/child relationships and cause postorder iteration
to skip some nodes, leaking memory. It would have worked if we just
freed the nodes without using rb_erase to balance.
The fix is to actually iterate over the rbnodes while using the destroy
helper which rebalances as it frees.

The conversion to reading the super with buffer_head IO caused racing
readers to risk spurious errors. Clearing uptodate to force device
access could race with a current waking reader. They could wake and
find uptodate cleared and think that an IO error had occurred.
The buffer_head functions generally require higher level serialization
of this kind of use of the uptodate bit. We use bh_private as a counter
to ensure that we don't clear uptodate while there are active readers.
We then also use a private buffer_head bit to satisfy batches of waiting
readers with each IO.

Updating the _first tracking in leaf bits was pretty confusing because
we tried to mashing all the tracking updates from all leaf modifications
into one shared code path.
It had a bug where merging would advance _first tracking by the number
of bits merged in the leaf rather than the number of contiguous set bits
after the new first. This lead to allocation failures eventually as
_first was after actual set bits in the leaf.
This fixes that by moving _first tracking updates into the leaf callers
that modify bits and to the parent ref updating code.
In the process we also fix little bugs in the support code that were
found by the radix block consistency checking.

The block end_io path could lose wakeups. Both the bio submission
task and a bio's end_io completion could see an io_count > 1 and neither
would set the block uptodate before dropping their io_count and waking.
It got into this mess because readers were waiting for io_count to drop
to 0. We add a io_busy bit which indicates that io is still in flight
which waiters now wait for. This gives the final io_count drop a chance
to do work before clearing io_busy and dropping their reference before
waking.

The first pass at the radix allocator wasn't paying a lot of attention
to the allocation cursors.
This more carefully manages them. They're only advanced after
allocating. Previously the metadata alloc cursor was advanced as it
searched through leaves that it might allocate from. We test for
wrapping past the specific final allocatable bit, rather than the limit
of what the radix height can store. This required pushing knoweldge of
metadata or data allocs down through some of the code paths.
