+/*
+ * This file implements VFS file and inode operations of regular files, device
+ * nodes and symlinks as well as address space operations.
+ *
+ * UBIFS uses 2 page flags: PG_private and PG_checked. PG_private is set if the
+ * page is dirty and is used for budgeting purposes - dirty pages should not be
+ * budgeted. The PG_checked flag is set if full budgeting is required for the
+ * page e.g., when it corresponds to a file hole or it is just beyond the file
+ * size. The budgeting is done in 'ubifs_write_begin()', because it is OK to
+ * fail in this function, and the budget is released in 'ubifs_write_end()'. So
+ * the PG_private and PG_checked flags carry the information about how the page
+ * was budgeted, to make it possible to release the budget properly.
+ *
+ * A thing to keep in mind: inode's 'i_mutex' is locked in most VFS operations
+ * we implement. However, this is not true for '->writepage()', which might be
+ * called with 'i_mutex' unlocked. For example, when pdflush is performing
+ * write-back, it calls 'writepage()' with unlocked 'i_mutex', although the
+ * inode has 'I_LOCK' flag in this case. At "normal" work-paths 'i_mutex' is
+ * locked in '->writepage', e.g. in "sys_write -> alloc_pages -> direct reclaim
+ * path'. So, in '->writepage()' we are only guaranteed that the page is
+ * locked.
+ *
+ * Similarly, 'i_mutex' does not have to be locked in readpage(), e.g.,
+ * readahead path does not have it locked ("sys_read -> generic_file_aio_read
+ * -> ondemand_readahead -> readpage"). In case of readahead, 'I_LOCK' flag is
+ * not set as well. However, UBIFS disables readahead.
+ *
+ * This, for example means that there might be 2 concurrent '->writepage()'
+ * calls for the same inode, but different inode dirty pages.

+ * This is the hot-path of the file-system and we are trying to optimize it as

+ *
+ * There many budgeting cases:
+ *     o a new page is appended - we have to budget for a new page and for
+ *       changing the inode; however, if the inode is already dirty, there is
+ *       no need to budget for it;

+ *       does not exist on the media (a hole), we have to budget for a new
+ *       page; otherwise, we may budget for changing an existing page; the

+ *       not introduce anything new to the FS indexing information, so it does
+ *       not grow, and smaller budget is acquired in this case;
+ *     o an existing dirty page is changed - no need to budget at all, because
+ *       the page budget has been acquired by earlier, when the page has been
+ *       marked dirty.
+ *
+ * UBIFS budgeting sub-system may force write-back if it thinks there is no
+ * space to reserve. This imposes some locking restrictions and makes it
+ * impossible to take into account the above cases, and makes it impossible to
+ * optimize budgeting.
+ *
+ * The solution for this is that the fast path of 'ubifs_write_begin()' assumes

+ * journal has been committed, the replay would not be able to detect this
+ * situation and correct the inode size. This means UBIFS would have to scan
+ * whole index and correct all inode sizes, which is long an unacceptable.
+ *
+ * To prevent situations like this, UBIFS writes pages back only if they are
+ * within last synchronized inode size, i.e. the the size which has been
+ * written to the flash media last time. Otherwise, UBIFS forces inode
+ * write-back, thus making sure the on-flash inode contains current inode size,
+ * and then keeps writing pages back.
+ *
+ * Some locking issues explanation. 'ubifs_writepage()' first is called with
+ * the page locked, and it locks @ui_mutex. However, write-back does take inode
+ * @i_mutex, which means other VFS operations may be run on this inode at the
+ * same time. And the problematic one is truncation to smaller size, from where
+ * we have to call 'vmtruncate()', which first changes @inode->i_size, then
+ * drops the truncated pages. And while dropping the pages, it takes the page
+ * lock. This means that 'do_truncation()' cannot call 'vmtruncate()' with
+ * @ui_mutex locked, because it would deadlock with 'ubifs_writepage()'. This
+ * means that @inode->i_size is changed while @ui_mutex is unlocked.
+ *
+ * But in 'ubifs_writepage()' we have to guarantee that we do not write beyond
+ * inode size. How do we do this if @inode->i_size may became smaller while we
+ * are in the middle of 'ubifs_writepage()'? The UBIFS solution is the
+ * @ui->ui_isize "shadow" field which UBIFS uses instead of @inode->i_size
+ * internally and updates it under @ui_mutex.
+ *
+ * Q: why we do not worry that if we race with truncation, we may end up with a
+ * situation when the inode is truncated while we are in the middle of
+ * 'do_writepage()', so we do write beyond inode size?
+ * A: If we are in the middle of 'do_writepage()', truncation would be locked
+ * on the page lock and it would not write the truncated inode node to the
+ * journal before we have finished.
