* [GFS2] Eliminate (almost) duplicate field from gfs2_inodeSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The blocks counter is almost a duplicate of the i_blocks field in the VFS inode. The only difference is that i_blocks can be only 32bits long for 32bit arch without large single file support. Since GFS2 doesn't handle the non-large single file case (for 32 bit anyway) this adds a new config dependency on 64BIT || LSF. This has always been the case, however we've never explicitly said so before. Even if we do add support for the non-LSF case, we will still not require this field to be duplicated since we will not be able to access oversized files anyway. So the net result of all this is that we shave 8 bytes from a gfs2_inode and get our config deps correct. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Add a function to interate over an extentSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a function (currently the only use is during mapping of already allocated blocks, but watch this space) which iterates over a number of pointers in a block and returns the extent length. If the initial pointer is 0 (i.e. unallocated) it will return the number of unallocated blocks in the extent. If the initial pointer is allocated, then it returns the number of contiguously allocated blocks in the extent. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* [GFS2] Add extent allocation to block allocatorSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rather than having to allocate a single block at a time, this patch allows the block allocator to allocate an extent. Since there is no difference (so far as the block allocator is concerned) between data blocks and indirect blocks, it is posible to allocate a single extent and for the caller to unrevoke just the blocks required for indirect blocks. Currently the only bit of GFS2 to make use of this feature is the build height function. The intention is that gfs2_block_map will be changed to make use of this feature in future patches.

* [GFS2] Merge gfs2_alloc_meta and gfs2_alloc_dataSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | Thanks to the preceeding patches, the only difference between these two functions is their name. We can thus merge them and call the new function gfs2_alloc_block to reflect the fact that it can allocate either kind of block. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Update gfs2_trans_add_unrevoke to accept extentsSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By adding an extra argument to gfs2_trans_add_unrevoke we can now specify an extent length of blocks to unrevoke. This means that we only need to make one pass through the list for each extent rather than each block. Currently the only extent length which is used is 1, but that will change in the future. Also gfs2_trans_add_unrevoke is removed from gfs2_alloc_meta since its the only difference between this and gfs2_alloc_data which is left. This will allow a future patch to merge these two functions into one (i.e. one call to allocate both data and metadata in a single extent in the future).

* [GFS2] Merge the rd_last_alloc_meta and rd_last_alloc_data fieldsSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | We don't need to keep track of when we last allocated data and metadata separately since the only thing thats important when searching for a free block is whether its free or not, which is independent from what type of block it is.

* [GFS2] Reduce inode size by merging fieldsSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | There were three fields being used to keep track of the location of the most recently allocated block for each inode. These have been merged into a single field in order to better keep the data and metadata for an inode close on disk, and also to reduce the space required for storage.

* [GFS2] Shrink & rename di_depthSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch forms a pair with the previous patch which shrunk di_height. Like that patch di_depth is renamed i_depth and moved into struct gfs2_inode directly. Also the field goes from 16 bits to 8 bits since it is also limited to a max value which is rather small (17 in this case). In addition we also now validate the field against this maximum value when its read in. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Remove rgrp and glock version numbersBob Peterson2008-03-31

* [GFS2] Remove lm.[ch] and distribute contentSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The functions in lm.c were just wrappers which were mostly only used in one other file. By moving the functions to the files where they are being used, they can be marked static and also this will usually result in them being inlined since they are often only used from one point in the code. A couple of really trivial functions have been inlined by hand into the function which called them as it makes the code clearer to do that. We also gain from one fewer function call in the glock lock and unlock paths. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* [GFS2] Add consts to various bits of rgrp.cSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31

* [GFS2] Introduce array of buffers to struct metapathSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The reason for doing this is to allow all the block mapping code to share the same array. As a result we can remove two arguments from lookup_metapath since they are now returned via the array. We also add a function to drop all refs to buffer heads when we are done with the metapath. The build_height function shares the struct metapath, but currently still frees its own buffers, and this will change in a future patch. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* [GFS2] Only do lo_incore_commit onceBob Peterson2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is performance related. When we're doing a log flush, I noticed we were calling buf_lo_incore_commit twice: once for data bufs and once for metadata bufs. Since this is the same function and does the same thing in both cases, there should be no reason to call it twice. Since we only need to call it once, we can also make it faster by removing it from the generic "lops" code and making it a stand-along static function.

* [GFS2] Streamline indirect pointer tree height calculationSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch improves the calculation of the tree height in order to reduce the number of operations which are carried out on each call to gfs2_block_map. In the common case, we now make a single comparison, rather than calculating the required tree height from scratch each time. Also in the case that the tree does need some extra height, we start from the current height rather from zero when we work out what the new height ought to be. In addition the di_height field is moved into the inode proper and reduced in size to a u8 since the value must be between 0 and GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT (10).

* [GFS2] Speed up gfs2_write_alloc_required, deprecate gfs2_extent_mapSteven Whitehouse2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the call to gfs2_extent_map from gfs2_write_alloc_required, instead we call gfs2_block_map directly. This results in fewer overall calls to gfs2_block_map in the multi-block case. Also, gfs2_extent_map is marked as deprecated so that people know that its going away as soon as all the callers have been converted. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata. Together with the other patches of this series - it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on <dentry,vfsmount> pairs - it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed - it reduces the overall code size: without patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux with patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux This patch: Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

* Pagecache zeroing: zero_user_segment, zero_user_segments and zero_userChristoph Lameter2008-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2) Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and makes code clearer. zero_user_segment(page, start, end) Same for a single segment. zero_user(page, start, length) Length variant for the case where we know the length. We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues: 1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable. 2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM. Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code. Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other functions defined in highmem.h. Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these functions are called. Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

| * [GFS2] Allow journal recovery on read-only mountAbhijith Das2008-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows gfs2 to perform journal recovery even if it is mounted read-only. Strictly speaking, a read-only mount should not be writing to the filesystem, but we do this only to perform journal recovery. A read-only mount will fail if we don't recover the dirty journal. Also, when gfs2 is used as a root filesystem, it will be mounted read-only before being mounted read-write during the boot sequence. A failed read-only mount will panic the machine during bootup.

| * [GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of lineSteven Whitehouse2008-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note that OCFS2 use the same approach. In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add too much overhead.
