Scrub uses a simple tree-enumeration to bring the relevant portions
of the extent- and csum-tree into the page cache before starting the
scrub-I/O. This is now replaced by using the new readahead-API.
During readahead the scrub is being accounted as paused, so it won't
hold off transaction commits.
This change raises the average disk bandwith utilisation on my test
volume from 70% to 90%. On another volume, the time for a test run
went down from 89s to 43s.
Changes v5:
- reada1/2 are now of type struct reada_control *

This ties nodatasum fixup in scrub together with raid repair patches. While
both series are working fine alone, scrub will report uncorrectable errors
if they occur in a nodatasum extent *and* the page is in the page cache.
Previously, we would have triggered readpage to find good data and do the
repair. However, readpage wouldn't read anything in the case where the page
is up to date in the cache. So, we simply take that good data we have and
call repair_io_failure directly (unless the page in the cache is dirty).

btrfs_bio is a bio abstraction able to split and not complete after the last
bio has returned (like the old btrfs_multi_bio). Additionally, btrfs_bio
tracks the mirror_num used to read data which can be used for error
correction purposes.

This removes a FIXME comment and introduces the first part of nodatasum
fixup: It gets the corresponding inode for a logical address and triggers a
regular readpage for the corrupted sector.
Once we have on-the-fly error correction our error will be automatically
corrected. The correction code is expected to clear the newly introduced
EXTENT_DAMAGED flag, making scrub report that error as "corrected" instead
of "uncorrectable" eventually.

Fix the mirror_num determination in scrub_stripe. The rest of the scrub code
did not use mirror_num for anything important and that error went unnoticed.
The nodatasum fixup patch of this set depends on a correct mirror_num.

While scrubbing, we may encounter various errors. Previously, a logical
address was printed to the log only. Now, all paths belonging to that
address are resolved and printed separately. That should work for hardlinks
as well as reflinks.

In normal operation, scrub is reading data sequentially in large portions.
In case of an i/o error, we try to find the corrupted area(s) by issuing
page sized read requests. With this commit we increment the
unverified_errors counter if all of the small size requests succeed.
Userland patches carrying such conspicous events to the administrator should
already be around.

Scrub starts the workers each time a scrub starts and stops them after it
finished. This patch adds an initialization for the workers before each
start, otherwise the workers behave strangely.

due to the semantics of btrfs_search_slot the path can point to an
invalid slot when ret > 0. This condition went unnoticed, which in
turn could have led to an incomplete scrubbing.

With the removal of the implicit plugging scrub ends up doing more and
smaller I/O than necessary. This patch adds explicit plugging per chunk.

The current scrub implementation reuses bios and pages as often as possible,
allocating them only on start and releasing them when finished. This leads
to more problems with the block layer than it's worth. The elevator gets
confused when there are more pages added to the bio than bi_size suggests.
This patch completely rips out the reuse of bios and pages and allocates
them freshly for each submit.

scrub_page collects several pages into one bio as long as they are physically
contiguous. As we only save one logical address for the whole bio, don't
collect pages that are physically contiguous but logically discontiguous.

btrfs scrub - make fixups sync, don't reuse fixup bios
Fixups are already sync for csum failures, this patch makes them sync
for EIO case as well.
Fixups are now sharing pages with the parent sbio - instead of
allocating a separate page to do a fixup we grab the page from the sbio
buffer.
Fixup bios are no longer reused.
struct fixup is no longer needed, instead pass [sbio pointer, index].
Originally this was added to look at the possibility of sharing the code
between drive swap and scrub, but it actually fixes a serious bug in
scrub code where errors that could be corrected were ignored and
reported as uncorrectable.
btrfs scrub - restore bios properly after media errors
The current code reallocates a bio after a media error. This is a
temporary measure introduced in v3 after a serious problem related to
bio reuse was found in v2 of scrub patchset.
Basically we did not reset bv_offset and bv_len fields of the bio_vec
structure. They are changed in case I/O error happens, for example, at
offset 512 or 1024 into the page. Also bi_flags field wasn't properly
setup before reusing the bio.

This adds an initial implementation for scrub. It works quite
straightforward. The usermode issues an ioctl for each device in the
fs. For each device, it enumerates the allocated device chunks. For
each chunk, the contained extents are enumerated and the data checksums
fetched. The extents are read sequentially and the checksums verified.
If an error occurs (checksum or EIO), a good copy is searched for. If
one is found, the bad copy will be rewritten.
All enumerations happen from the commit roots. During a transaction
commit, the scrubs get paused and afterwards continue from the new
roots.
This commit is based on the series originally posted to linux-btrfs
with some improvements that resulted from comments from David Sterba,
Ilya Dryomov and Jan Schmidt.
