Introduce the need_throttle() and calc_throttle() functions to
independently check whether throttling is required for a particular
dquot and if so, calculate the associated throttling metrics based
on the state of the quota. We use the same general algorithm to
calculate the throttle shift as for global free space with the
exception of using three stages rather than five.

Update xfs_iomap_prealloc_size() to use the smallest available
prealloc size based on each of the constraints and apply the
maximum shift to obtain the throttled preallocation size.

All the limits are applied from previous extents, quota and then the
code from commit 055388a3 is applied:
	if (alloc_blocks<  mp->m_writeio_blocks)
		alloc_blocks = mp->m_writeio_blocks;

                        ^^^^
we may not have mp->m_writeio_blocks left in the filesytem.
Doesn't the following make more sense?:

	if (alloc_blocks<  mp->m_writeio_blocks)
		alloc_blocks = 0;

No. This is for prealloc, and we alwys try to prealloc the minimum
configured. If we can't prealloc that amount, then preallocation
fails and we'll try a single block.

Remember, the freesp calculation is done unlocked and hence freesp
is only an estimate. It may change between the reading of it and the
actual allocation attempt, and so the only real determination of
ENOSPC is the failure ot the allocation attempt.....

Cheers,

Dave.

Thank-you for the information.

And without the minimum, it will immediately trip the assert:

Assertion failed: last_fsb > offset_fsb, file: /root/xfs/fs/xfs/xfs_iomap.c, line: 590

Sorry for the noise.

--Mark.
