| * Btrfs: The file argument for fsync() is never nullDan Carpenter2010-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "file" argument for fsync is never null so we can remove this check. What drew my attention here is that 7ea8085910e: "drop unused dentry argument to ->fsync" introduced an unconditional dereference at the start of the function and that generated a smatch warning.

| * Btrfs: avoid BUG when dropping root and reference in same transactionSage Weil2010-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If btrfs_ioctl_snap_destroy() deletes a snapshot but finishes with end_transaction(), the cleaner kthread may come in and drop the root in the same transaction. If that's the case, the root's refs still == 1 in the tree when btrfs_del_root() deletes the item, because commit_fs_roots() hasn't updated it yet (that happens during the commit). This wasn't a problem before only because btrfs_ioctl_snap_destroy() would commit the transaction before dropping the dentry reference, so the dead root wouldn't get queued up until after the fs root item was updated in the btree. Since it is not an error to drop the root reference and the root in the same transaction, just drop the BUG_ON() in btrfs_del_root().

| * Btrfs: prohibit a operation of changing acl's mask when noacl mount option usedShi Weihua2010-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when used Posix File System Test Suite(pjd-fstest) to test btrfs, some cases about setfacl failed when noacl mount option used. I simplified used commands in pjd-fstest, and the following steps can reproduce it. ------------------------ # cd btrfs-part/ # mkdir aaa # setfacl -m m::rw aaa <- successed, but not expected by pjd-fstest. ------------------------ I checked ext3, a warning message occured, like as: setfacl: aaa/: Operation not supported Certainly, it's expected by pjd-fstest. So, i compared acl.c of btrfs and ext3. Based on that, a patch created. Fortunately, it works. Signed-off-by: Shi Weihua <shiwh@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

| * Btrfs: fix preallocation and nodatacow checks in O_DIRECTChris Mason2010-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The O_DIRECT code wasn't checking for multiple references on preallocated or nodatacow extents. This means it wasn't honoring snapshots properly.

| * Btrfs: avoid ENOSPC errors in btrfs_dirty_inodeChris Mason2010-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | btrfs_dirty_inode tries to sneak in without much waiting or space reservation, mostly for performance reasons. This usually works well but can cause problems when there are many many writers. When btrfs_update_inode fails with ENOSPC, we fallback to a slower btrfs_start_transaction call that will reserve some space. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
| * Btrfs: move O_DIRECT space reservation to btrfs_direct_IOChris Mason2010-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves the delalloc space reservation done for O_DIRECT into btrfs_direct_IO. This way we don't leak reserved space if the generic O_DIRECT write code errors out before it calls into btrfs_direct_IO. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
| * Btrfs: rework O_DIRECT enospc handlingChris Mason2010-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes O_DIRECT write code to mark extents as delalloc while it is processing them. Yan Zheng has reworked the enospc accounting based on tracking delalloc extents and this makes it much easier to track enospc in the O_DIRECT code. There are a few space cases with the O_DIRECT code though, it only sets the EXTENT_DELALLOC bits, instead of doing EXTENT_DELALLOC | EXTENT_DIRTY | EXTENT_UPTODATE, because we don't want to mess with clearing the dirty and uptodate bits when things go wrong. This is important because there are no pages in the page cache, so any extent state structs that we put in the tree won't get freed by releasepage. We have to clear them ourselves as the DIO ends. With this commit, we reserve space at in btrfs_file_aio_write, and then as each btrfs_direct_IO call progresses it sets EXTENT_DELALLOC on the range. btrfs_get_blocks_direct is responsible for clearing the delalloc at the same time it drops the extent lock.

| * Btrfs: use async helpers for DIO write checksummingChris Mason2010-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The async helper threads offload crc work onto all the CPUs, and make streaming writes much faster. This changes the O_DIRECT write code to use them. The only small complication was that we need to pass in the logical offset in the file for each bio, because we can't find it in the bio's pages. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
| * Btrfs: don't walk around with task->state != TASK_RUNNINGChris Mason2010-05-25

| * Btrfs: do aio_write instead of writeJosef Bacik2010-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order for AIO to work, we need to implement aio_write. This patch converts our btrfs_file_write to btrfs_aio_write.

| * Btrfs: add basic DIO read/write supportJosef Bacik2010-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides basic DIO support for reading and writing. It does not do the work to recover from mismatching checksums, that will come later. A few design changes have been made from Jim's code (sorry Jim!) 1) Use the generic direct-io code. Jim originally re-wrote all the generic DIO code in order to account for all of BTRFS's oddities, but thanks to that work it seems like the best bet is to just ignore compression and such and just opt to fallback on buffered IO. 2) Fallback on buffered IO for compressed or inline extents. Jim's code did it's own buffering to make dio with compressed extents work. Now we just fallback onto normal buffered IO. 3) Use ordered extents for the writes so that all of the lock_extent() lookup_ordered() type checks continue to work. 4) Do the lock_extent() lookup_ordered() loop in readpage so we don't race with DIO writes. I've tested this with fsx and everything works great. This patch depends on my dio and filemap.c patches to work.

* | driver core: add devname module aliases to allow module on-demand auto-loadingKay Sievers2010-05-25

Ideally all these modules would be compiled-in, but distros seems too much in love with their modularization that we need to cover the common cases with this new facility. It will allow us to remove a bunch of pretty useless init scripts and modprobes from init scripts. The static device node aliases will be carried in the module itself. The program depmod will extract this information to a file in the module directory: $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.34-00650-g537b60d-dirty/modules.devname # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading. microcode cpu/microcode c10:184 fuse fuse c10:229 ppp_generic ppp c108:0 tun net/tun c10:200 dm_mod mapper/control c10:235 Udev will pick up the depmod created file on startup and create all the static device nodes which the kernel modules specify, so that these modules get automatically loaded when the device node is accessed: $ /sbin/udevd --debug ... static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/cpu/microcode' c10:184 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/fuse' c10:229 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/ppp' c108:0 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/net/tun' c10:200 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/mapper/control' c10:235 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/net/tun' 0666 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/fuse' 0666 A few device nodes are switched to statically allocated numbers, to allow the static nodes to work. This might also useful for systems which still run a plain static /dev, which is completely unsafe to use with any dynamic minor numbers. Note: The devname aliases must be limited to the *common* and *single*instance* device nodes, like the misc devices, and never be used for conceptually limited systems like the loop devices, which should rather get fixed properly and get a control node for losetup to talk to, instead of creating a random number of device nodes in advance, regardless if they are ever used. This facility is to hide the mess distros are creating with too modualized kernels, and just to hide that these modules are not compiled-in, and not to paper-over broken concepts.
