+
+/*
+ * mballoc operates on the following data:
+ *  - on-disk bitmap
+ *  - in-core buddy (actually includes buddy and bitmap)
+ *  - preallocation descriptors (PAs)
+ *
+ * there are two types of preallocations:
+ *  - inode
+ *    assiged to specific inode and can be used for this inode only.
+ *    it describes part of inode's space preallocated to specific
+ *    physical blocks. any block from that preallocated can be used
+ *    independent. the descriptor just tracks number of blocks left
+ *    unused. so, before taking some block from descriptor, one must
+ *    make sure corresponded logical block isn't allocated yet. this
+ *    also means that freeing any block within descriptor's range
+ *    must discard all preallocated blocks.
+ *  - locality group
+ *    assigned to specific locality group which does not translate to
+ *    permanent set of inodes: inode can join and leave group. space
+ *    from this type of preallocation can be used for any inode. thus
+ *    it's consumed from the beginning to the end.
+ *
+ * relation between them can be expressed as:
+ *    in-core buddy = on-disk bitmap + preallocation descriptors
+ *
+ * this mean blocks mballoc considers used are:
+ *  - allocated blocks (persistent)
+ *  - preallocated blocks (non-persistent)
+ *
+ * consistency in mballoc world means that at any time a block is either
+ * free or used in ALL structures. notice: "any time" should not be read
+ * literally -- time is discrete and delimited by locks.
+ *
+ *  to keep it simple, we don't use block numbers, instead we count number of
+ *  blocks: how many blocks marked used/free in on-disk bitmap, buddy and PA.
+ *
+ * all operations can be expressed as:
+ *  - init buddy:                      buddy = on-disk + PAs
+ *  - new PA:                          buddy += N; PA = N
+ *  - use inode PA:                    on-disk += N; PA -= N
+ *  - discard inode PA                 buddy -= on-disk - PA; PA = 0
+ *  - use locality group PA            on-disk += N; PA -= N
+ *  - discard locality group PA                buddy -= PA; PA = 0
+ *  note: 'buddy -= on-disk - PA' is used to show that on-disk bitmap
+ *        is used in real operation because we can't know actual used
+ *        bits from PA, only from on-disk bitmap
+ *
+ * if we follow this strict logic, then all operations above should be atomic.
+ * given some of them can block, we'd have to use something like semaphores
+ * killing performance on high-end SMP hardware. let's try to relax it using
+ * the following knowledge:
+ *  1) if buddy is referenced, it's already initialized
+ *  2) while block is used in buddy and the buddy is referenced,
+ *     nobody can re-allocate that block
+ *  3) we work on bitmaps and '+' actually means 'set bits'. if on-disk has
+ *     bit set and PA claims same block, it's OK. IOW, one can set bit in
+ *     on-disk bitmap if buddy has same bit set or/and PA covers corresponded
+ *     block
+ *
+ * so, now we're building a concurrency table:
+ *  - init buddy vs.
+ *    - new PA
+ *      blocks for PA are allocated in the buddy, buddy must be referenced
+ *      until PA is linked to allocation group to avoid concurrent buddy init
+ *    - use inode PA
+ *      we need to make sure that either on-disk bitmap or PA has uptodate data
+ *      given (3) we care that PA-=N operation doesn't interfere with init
+ *    - discard inode PA
+ *      the simplest way would be to have buddy initialized by the discard
+ *    - use locality group PA
+ *      again PA-=N must be serialized with init
+ *    - discard locality group PA
+ *      the simplest way would be to have buddy initialized by the discard
+ *  - new PA vs.
+ *    - use inode PA
+ *      i_truncate_mutex serializes them
+ *    - discard inode PA
+ *      discard process must wait until PA isn't used by another process
+ *    - use locality group PA
+ *      some mutex should serialize them
+ *    - discard locality group PA
+ *      discard process must wait until PA isn't used by another process
+ *  - use inode PA
+ *    - use inode PA
+ *      i_truncate_mutex or another mutex should serializes them
+ *    - discard inode PA
+ *      discard process must wait until PA isn't used by another process
+ *    - use locality group PA
+ *      nothing wrong here -- they're different PAs covering different blocks
+ *    - discard locality group PA
+ *      discard process must wait until PA isn't used by another process
+ *
+ * now we're ready to make few consequences:
+ *  - PA is referenced and while it is no discard is possible
+ *  - PA is referenced until block isn't marked in on-disk bitmap
+ *  - PA changes only after on-disk bitmap
+ *  - discard must not compete with init. either init is done before
+ *    any discard or they're serialized somehow
+ *  - buddy init as sum of on-disk bitmap and PAs is done atomically
+ *
+ * a special case when we've used PA to emptiness. no need to modify buddy
+ * in this case, but we should care about concurrent init
