* 9p: Reduce object size with CONFIG_NET_9P_DEBUGJoe Perches2012-01-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reduce object size by deduplicating formats. Use vsprintf extension %pV. Rename P9_DPRINTK uses to p9_debug, align arguments. Add function for _p9_debug and macro to add __func__. Add missing "\n"s to p9_debug uses. Remove embedded function names as p9_debug adds it. Remove P9_EPRINTK macro and convert use to pr_<level>. Add and use pr_fmt and pr_<level>. $ size fs/9p/built-in.o* text data bss dec hex filename 62133 984 16000 79117 1350d fs/9p/built-in.o.new 67342 984 16928 85254 14d06 fs/9p/built-in.o.old $ size net/9p/built-in.o* text data bss dec hex filename 88792 4148 22024 114964 1c114 net/9p/built-in.o.new 94072 4148 23232 121452 1da6c net/9p/built-in.o.old Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | In v9fs_file_do_lock() we need to check return value of schedule_timeout_interruptible() and exit the loop when it returns nonzero, otherwise the loop is not really interruptible and after the signal, the loop is no longer throttled by P9_LOCK_TIMEOUT.

* fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlersJosef Bacik2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current 9p client file write code does not check for RLIMIT_FSIZE resource. This bug was found by running LTP test case for setrlimit. This bug is fixed by calling generic_write_checks before sending the write request to the server. Without this patch: the write function is allowed to write above the RLIMIT_FSIZE set by user.

* 9p: Skip check for mandatory locks when unlockingSachin Prabhu2010-03-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While investigating a bug, I came across a possible bug in v9fs. The problem is similar to the one reported for NFS by ASANO Masahiro in http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/12/21/334. v9fs_file_lock() will skip locks on file which has mode set to 02666. This is a problem in cases where the mode of the file is changed after a process has obtained a lock on the file. Such a lock will be skipped during unlock and the machine will end up with a BUG in locks_remove_flock(). v9fs_file_lock() should skip the check for mandatory locks when unlocking a file.

* 9p: Add fscache support to 9pAbhishek Kulkarni2009-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a persistent, read-only caching facility for 9p clients using the FS-Cache caching backend. When the fscache facility is enabled, each inode is associated with a corresponding vcookie which is an index into the FS-Cache indexing tree. The FS-Cache indexing tree is indexed at 3 levels: - session object associated with each mount. - inode/vcookie - actual data (pages) A cache tag is chosen randomly for each session. These tags can be read off /sys/fs/9p/caches and can be passed as a mount-time parameter to re-attach to the specified caching session.

* 9p: adjust 9p vfs write operationEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the 9p net wire operation ensures that all data is sent by sending multiple packets if the data requested is larger than the msize.

* 9p: implement optional loose read cacheEric Van Hensbergen2007-02-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While cacheing is generally frowned upon in the 9p world, it has its place -- particularly in situations where the remote file system is exclusive and/or read-only. The vacfs views of venti content addressable store are a real-world instance of such a situation. To facilitate higher performance for these workloads (and eventually use the fscache patches), we have enabled a "loose" cache mode which does not attempt to maintain any form of consistency on the page-cache or dcache. This results in over two orders of magnitude performance improvement for cacheable block reads in the Bonnie benchmark. The more aggressive use of the dcache also seems to improve metadata operational performance. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
