xfs: pass perag to filestreams tracing

Pass perags instead of raw ag numbers, avoiding the need for the
special peek function for the tracing code.

xfs: move xfs_bmap_btalloc_filestreams() to xfs_filestreams.c

xfs_bmap_btalloc_filestreams() calls two filestreams functions to
select the AG to allocate from. Both those functions end up in
the same selection function that iterates all AGs multiple times.
Worst case, xfs_bmap_btalloc_filestreams() can iterate all AGs 4
times just to select the initial AG to allocate in.

Move the AG selection to fs/xfs/xfs_filestreams.c as a single
interface so that the inefficient AG interation is contained
entirely within the filestreams code. This will allow the
implementation to be simplified and made more efficient in future
patches.

xfs: convert to SPDX license tags

Remove the verbose license text from XFS files and replace them
with SPDX tags. This does not change the license of any of the code,
merely refers to the common, up-to-date license files in LICENSES/

This change was mostly scripted. fs/xfs/Makefile and
fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_fs.h were modified by hand, the rest were detected
and modified by the following command:

for f in `git grep -l "GNU General" fs/xfs/` ; do
echo $f
cat $f | awk -f hdr.awk > $f.new
mv -f $f.new $f
done

And the hdr.awk script that did the modification (including
detecting the difference between GPL-2.0 and GPL-2.0+ licenses)
is as follows:

$ cat hdr.awk
BEGIN {
hdr = 1.0
tag = "GPL-2.0"
str = ""
}

/^ \* This program is free software/ {
hdr = 2.0;
next
}

/any later version./ {
tag = "GPL-2.0+"
next
}

/^ \*\// {
if (hdr > 0.0) {
print "// SPDX-License-Identifier: " tag
print str
print $0
str=""
hdr = 0.0
next
}
print $0
next
}

/^ \* / {
if (hdr > 1.0)
next
if (hdr > 0.0) {
if (str != "")
str = str "\n"
str = str $0
next
}
print $0
next
}

/^ \*/ {
if (hdr > 0.0)
next
print $0
next
}

// {
if (hdr > 0.0) {
if (str != "")
str = str "\n"
str = str $0
next
}
print $0
}

END { }

xfs: don't create a slab cache for filestream items

We only have very few of these around, and allocation isn't that
much of a hot path. Remove the slab cache to simplify the code,
and to not waste any resources for the usual case of not having
any inodes that use the filestream allocator.

# 2a82b8be 10-Jul-2007 David Chinner <dgc@sgi.com>

[XFS] Concurrent Multi-File Data Streams

In media spaces, video is often stored in a frame-per-file format. When
dealing with uncompressed realtime HD video streams in this format, it is
crucial that files do not get fragmented and that multiple files a placed
contiguously on disk.

When multiple streams are being ingested and played out at the same time,
it is critical that the filesystem does not cross the streams and
interleave them together as this creates seek and readahead cache miss
latency and prevents both ingest and playout from meeting frame rate
targets.

This patch set creates a "stream of files" concept into the allocator to
place all the data from a single stream contiguously on disk so that RAID
array readahead can be used effectively. Each additional stream gets
placed in different allocation groups within the filesystem, thereby
ensuring that we don't cross any streams. When an AG fills up, we select a
new AG for the stream that is not in use.

The core of the functionality is the stream tracking - each inode that we
create in a directory needs to be associated with the directories' stream.
Hence every time we create a file, we look up the directories' stream
object and associate the new file with that object.

Once we have a stream object for a file, we use the AG that the stream
object point to for allocations. If we can't allocate in that AG (e.g. it
is full) we move the entire stream to another AG. Other inodes in the same
stream are moved to the new AG on their next allocation (i.e. lazy
update).

Stream objects are kept in a cache and hold a reference on the inode.
Hence the inode cannot be reclaimed while there is an outstanding stream
reference. This means that on unlink we need to remove the stream
association and we also need to flush all the associations on certain
events that want to reclaim all unreferenced inodes (e.g. filesystem
freeze).
