2009-10-18inet: rename some inet_sock fieldsEric Dumazet
In order to have better cache layouts of struct sock (separate zones for rx/tx paths), we need this preliminary patch. Goal is to transfert fields used at lookup time in the first read-mostly cache line (inside struct sock_common) and move sk_refcnt to a separate cache line (only written by rx path) This patch adds inet_ prefix to daddr, rcv_saddr, dport, num, saddr, sport and id fields. This allows a future patch to define these fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-09-29nilfs2: fix missing zero-fill initialization of btree node cacheRyusuke Konishi
This will fix file system corruption which infrequently happens after mount. The problem was reported from users with the title "[NILFS users] Fail to mount NILFS." (Message-ID: <200908211918.34720.yuri@itinteg.net>), and so forth. I've also experienced the corruption multiple times on kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31. The problem turned out to be caused due to discordance between mapping->nrpages of a btree node cache and the actual number of pages hung on the cache; if the mapping->nrpages becomes zero even as it has pages, truncate_inode_pages() returns without doing anything. Usually this is harmless except it may cause page leak, but garbage collection fairly infrequently sees a stale page remained in the btree node cache of DAT (i.e. disk address translation file of nilfs), and induces the corruption. I identified a missing initialization in btree node caches was the root cause. This corrects the bug. I've tested this for kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31.

2009-09-28Btrfs: proper -ENOSPC handlingJosef Bacik
At the start of a transaction we do a btrfs_reserve_metadata_space() and specify how many items we plan on modifying. Then once we've done our modifications and such, just call btrfs_unreserve_metadata_space() for the same number of items we reserved. For keeping track of metadata needed for data I've had to add an extent_io op for when we merge extents. This lets us track space properly when we are doing sequential writes, so we don't end up reserving way more metadata space than what we need. The only place where the metadata space accounting is not done is in the relocation code. This is because Yan is going to be reworking that code in the near future, so running btrfs-vol -b could still possibly result in a ENOSPC related panic. This patch also turns off the metadata_ratio stuff in order to allow users to more efficiently use their disk space. This patch makes it so we track how much metadata we need for an inode's delayed allocation extents by tracking how many extents are currently waiting for allocation. It introduces two new callbacks for the extent_io tree's, merge_extent_hook and split_extent_hook. These help us keep track of when we merge delalloc extents together and split them up. Reservations are handled prior to any actually dirty'ing occurs, and then we unreserve after we dirty. btrfs_unreserve_metadata_for_delalloc() will make the appropriate unreservations as needed based on the number of reservations we currently have and the number of extents we currently have. Doing the reservation outside of doing any of the actual dirty'ing lets us do things like filemap_flush() the inode to try and force delalloc to happen, or as a last resort actually start allocation on all delalloc inodes in the fs. This has survived dbench, fs_mark and an fsx torture test. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2009-09-28ext4: async direct IO for holes and fallocate supportMingming Cao
For async direct IO that covers holes or fallocate, the end_io callback function now queued the convertion work on workqueue but don't flush the work rightaway as it might take too long to afford. But when fsync is called after all the data is completed, user expects the metadata also being updated before fsync returns. Thus we need to flush the conversion work when fsync() is called. This patch keep track of a listed of completed async direct io that has a work queued on workqueue. When fsync() is called, it will go through the list and do the conversion. Signed-off-by: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com>
2009-09-28ext4: Use end_io callback to avoid direct I/O fallback to buffered I/OMingming Cao
Currently the DIO VFS code passes create = 0 when writing to the middle of file. It does this to avoid block allocation for holes, so as not to expose stale data out when there is a parallel buffered read (which does not hold the i_mutex lock). Direct I/O writes into holes falls back to buffered IO for this reason. Since preallocated extents are treated as holes when doing a get_block() look up (buffer is not mapped), direct IO over fallocate also falls back to buffered IO. Thus ext4 actually silently falls back to buffered IO in above two cases, which is undesirable. To fix this, this patch creates unitialized extents when a direct I/O write into holes in sparse files, and registering an end_io callback which converts the uninitialized extent to an initialized extent after the I/O is completed.

2009-09-28ext4: Split uninitialized extents for direct I/OMingming Cao

This avoids needing to deal with an ENOSPC error in the end_io callback that gets used for direct I/O. When the IO is complete, the written extent will be marked as initialized.

2009-09-29ext4: Adjust ext4_da_writepages() to write out larger contiguous chunksTheodore Ts'o
Work around problems in the writeback code to force out writebacks in larger chunks than just 4mb, which is just too small. This also works around limitations in the ext4 block allocator, which can't allocate more than 2048 blocks at a time. So we need to defeat the round-robin characteristics of the writeback code and try to write out as many blocks in one inode before allowing the writeback code to move on to another inode. We add a a new per-filesystem tunable, max_writeback_mb_bump, which caps this to a default of 128mb per inode. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

This allows the user to see what filesystem was involved with a particular ext4_da_writepage() error. Also, use KERN_CRIT which is more appropriate than KERN_EMERG. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2009-09-26writeback: pass in super_block to bdi_start_writeback()Jens Axboe
Sometimes we only want to write pages from a specific super_block, so allow that to be passed in. This fixes a problem with commit 56a131dcf7ed36c3c6e36bea448b674ea85ed5bb causing writeback on all super_blocks on a bdi, where we only really want to sync a specific sb from writeback_inodes_sb().

2009-09-25cifs: fix locking and list handling code in cifs_open and its helperJeff Layton
The patch to remove cifs_init_private introduced a locking imbalance. It didn't remove the leftover list addition code and the unlocking in that function. cifs_new_fileinfo does the list addition now, so there should be no need to do it outside of that function. pCifsInode will never be NULL, so we don't need to check for that. This patch also gets rid of the ugly locking and unlocking across function calls.
