Currently btrfs has a limitation on the maximum number of hard links an
inode can have. Specifically, links are stored in an array of ref
items:

struct btrfs_inode_ref {
	__le64 index;
	__le16 name_len;
	/* name goes here */
} __attribute__ ((__packed__));

The ref arrays are found via key triple:

(inode objectid, BTRFS_INODE_EXTREF_KEY, parent dir objectid)

Since items can not exceed the size of a leaf, the total number of links
that can be stored for a given inode / parent dir pair is limited to under
4k. This works fine for the most common case of few to only a handful of
links. Once the link count gets higher however, we begin to return EMLINK.


The following patches fix this situation by introducing a new ref item:

struct btrfs_inode_extref {
	__le64 parent_objectid;
	__le64 index;
	__le16 name_len;
	__u8   name[0];
	/* name goes here */
} __attribute__ ((__packed__));

Extended refs use a different addressing scheme. Extended ref keys
look like:

(inode objectid, BTRFS_INODE_EXTREF_KEY, hash)

Where hash is defined as a function of the parent objectid and link name.

This effectively fixes the limitation, though we have a slightly less
efficient packing of link data. To keep the best of both worlds then, I
implemented the following behavior:

Extended refs don't replace the existing ref array. An inode gets an
extended ref for a given link _only_ after the ref array has been filled.  So
the most common cases shouldn't actually see any difference in performance
or disk usage as they'll never get to the point where we're using an
extended ref.

It's important while reading the patches however that there's still the
possibility that we can have a set of operations that grow out an inode ref
array (adding some extended refs) and then remove only the refs in the
array.  I don't really see this being common but it's a case we always have
to consider when coding these changes.

Extended refs handle the case of a hash collision by storing items with the
same key in an array just like the dir item code. This means we have to
search an array on rare occasion.

Testing wise, the basic namespace operations work well (link, unlink, etc).
The rest has gotten less debugging (and I really don't have a great way of
testing the code in tree-log.c) Attached to this e-mail are btrfs-progs
patches which make testing of the changes possible.

Finally, these patches are based off Linux v3.5.

Thanks to Jan Schmidt for giving the patches thorough review. Most of the
changes are from his suggestions.

Changelog:

- rebased against 3.5

- many code style cleanups

- simplified ref_get_fields() and callers 

- count_inode_extrefs() return value is bubbled up to callers now

- Fixed up add_inode_ref() changes based on my understanding of the
  function. Hopefully I've hit upon the right changes :)


* Changes from the first version of this patch:

- Implemented collision handling.

- Standardized naming of extended ref variables (extref).

- moved hashing code to hash.h and gave the function a better name
  (btrfs_extref_hash).

- A few cleanups of error handling.

- Fixed a bug where btrfs_find_one_extref() was erroneously incrementing the
  extref offset before returning it.

- Moved btrfs_find_one_extref() into backref.c. This means that backref.c no
  longer has to include tree-log.h.

- Fixed a bug in iref_to_path() where we were looking for extended refs
  (this actually lead to other bugs). Since iref_to_path() only deals with
  directory inodes we would never have an extended ref.

- added some explicit locking calls in the backref.c changes

- Instead of adding a second iterate function for extended refs, I fixed up
  iterate_irefs_t arguments to take the raw information from whatever ref
  version we're coming from. This removed a bunch of duplicated code.

- I am actually including a patch to btrfs-progs with this drop. :)

[PATCH] btrfs-progs: basic support for extended inode refs

This patch adds enough mkfs support to turn on the superblock flag and
btrfs-debug-tree support so that we can visualize the state of extended refs
on disk.
