This series can be found in my github repo:

https://github.com/adam900710/linux/tree/scrub_stripe

It's recommended to fetch from the repo, as our misc-next seems to
change pretty rapidly.

[Changelog]
v4:
- Add a dedicated patch to add btrfs_bio::fs_info
  Along with dedicated allocator for scrub btrfs bios.
  The dedicated allocator is due to the fact that scrub and regular
  btrfs bios have very different mandatory members (fs_info vs inode +
  file_offset).
  For now I believe a different allocator would be better.

- Some code style change
  * No more single letter temporray structure copied from old scrub code
  * Use "for (int i = 0; ...)" when possible
  * Some new lines fixes
  * Extra brackets for tenrary operators
  * A new macro for (BTRFS_STRIPE_LEN >> PAGE_SHIFT)
  * Use enum for scrub_stripe::state bit flags
  * Use extra brackets for double shifting
  * Use explicit != 0 or == 0 comparing memcmp() results
  * Remove unnecessary ASSERT()s after btrfs_bio allocation

v3:
- Add a dedicated @fs_info member for btrfs_bio
  Unfortunately although we have a 32 bytes hole between @end_io_work and @bio,
  compiler still choose not to use that hole for whatever reasons.
  Thus this would increase the size of btrfs_bio by 4 bytes.

- Rebased to lastest misc-next

- Fix various while space error not caught by btrfs-workflow

v2:
- Use batched scrub_stripe submission
  This allows much better performance compared to the old scrub code

- Add scrub specific bio layer helpers
  This makes the scrub code to be completely rely on logical bytenr +
  mirror_num.

[PROBLEMS OF OLD SCRUB]

- Too many delayed jumps, making it hard to read
  Even starting from scrub_simple_mirror(), we have the following
  functions:

  scrub_extent()
       |
       v
  scrub_sectors()
       |
       v
  scrub_add_sector_to_rd_bio()
       | endio function
       v
  scrub_bio_end_io()
       | delayed work
       v
  scrub_bio_end_io_worker()
       |
       v
  scrub_block_complete()
       |
       v
  scrub_handle_errored_blocks()
       |
       v
  scrub_recheck_block()
       |
       v
  scrub_repair_sector_from_good_copy()

  Not to mention the hidden jumps in certain branches.

- IOPS inefficient for fragmented extents

  The real block size of scrub read is between 4K and 128K.
  If the extents are not adjacent, the blocksize drops to 4K and would
  be an IOPS disaster.

- All hardcoded to do the logical -> physical mapping by scrub itself
  No usage of any existing bio facilities.
  And even implemented a RAID56 recovery wrapper.

[NEW SCRUB_STRIPE BASED SOLUTION]

- Overall streamlined code base

  queue_scrub_stripe()
     |
     v
  scrub_find_fill_first_stripe()
     |
     v
  done

  Or

  queue_scrub_stripe()
     |
     v
  flush_scrub_stripes()
     |
     v
  scrub_submit_initial_read()
     | endio function
     v
  scrub_read_endio()
     | delayed work
     v
  scrub_stripe_read_repair_worker()
     |
     v
  scrub_verify_one_stripe()
     |
     v
  scrub_stripe_submit_repair_read()
     |
     v
  scrub_write_sectors()
     |
     v
  scrub_stripe_report_errors()

  Only one endio and delayed work, all other work are properly done in a
  sequential workflow.

- Always read in 64KiB block size
  The real blocksize of read starts at 64KiB, and ends at 512K.
  This already results a better performance even for the worst case:

  With patchset:	404.81MiB/s
  Without patchset:	369.30MiB/s

  Around 10% performance improvement on an SATA SSD.

- All logical bytenr/mirror_num based read and write

  With the new single stripe fast path in btrfs_submit_bio(), scrub can
  reuse most of the bio layer code, result much simpler scrub code.

[TODO]

- More testing on zoned devices
  Now the patchset can already pass all scrub/replace groups with
  regular devices.

- More cleanup on RAID56 path
  Now RAID56 still uses some old facility, resulting things like
  scrub_sector and scrub_bio can not be fully cleaned up.
