* ext4: Fix lack of credits BUG() when deleting a badly fragmented inodeTheodore Ts'o2008-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The extents codepath for ext4_truncate() requests journal transaction credits in very small chunks, requesting only what is needed. This means there may not be enough credits left on the transaction handle after ext4_truncate() returns and then when ext4_delete_inode() tries finish up its work, it may not have enough transaction credits, causing a BUG() oops in the jbd2 core. Also, reserve an extra 2 blocks when starting an ext4_delete_inode() since we need to update the inode bitmap, as well as update the orphaned inode linked list.

* ext4: don't read inode block if the buffer has a write errorHidehiro Kawai2008-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A transient I/O error can corrupt inode data. Here is the scenario: (1) update inode_A at the block_B (2) pdflush writes out new inode_A to the filesystem, but it results in write I/O error, at this point, BH_Uptodate flag of the buffer for block_B is cleared and BH_Write_EIO is set (3) create new inode_C which located at block_B, and __ext4_get_inode_loc() tries to read on-disk block_B because the buffer is not uptodate (4) if it can read on-disk block_B successfully, inode_A is overwritten by old data This patch makes __ext4_get_inode_loc() not read the inode block if the buffer has BH_Write_EIO flag. In this case, the buffer should have the latest information, so setting the uptodate flag to the buffer (this avoids WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_buffer_dirty().) According to this change, we would need to test BH_Write_EIO flag for the error checking. Currently nobody checks write I/O errors on metadata buffers, but it will be done in other patches I'm working on.

* vfs: pagecache usage optimization for pagesize!=blocksizeHisashi Hifumi2008-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we read some part of a file through pagecache, if there is a pagecache of corresponding index but this page is not uptodate, read IO is issued and this page will be uptodate. I think this is good for pagesize == blocksize environment but there is room for improvement on pagesize != blocksize environment. Because in this case a page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate. So I suggest that when all buffers which correspond to a part of a file that we want to read are uptodate, use this pagecache and copy data from this pagecache to user buffer even if a page is not uptodate. This can reduce read IO and improve system throughput. I wrote a benchmark program and got result number with this program. This benchmark do: 1: mount and open a test file. 2: create a 512MB file. 3: close a file and umount. 4: mount and again open a test file. 5: pwrite randomly 300000 times on a test file. offset is aligned by IO size(1024bytes). 6: measure time of preading randomly 100000 times on a test file. The result was: 2.6.26 330 sec 2.6.26-patched 226 sec Arch:i386 Filesystem:ext3 Blocksize:1024 bytes Memory: 1GB On ext3/4, a file is written through buffer/block. So random read/write mixed workloads or random read after random write workloads are optimized with this patch under pagesize != blocksize environment. This test result showed this. The benchmark program is as follows: #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <time.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/mount.h> #define LEN 1024 #define LOOP 1024*512 /* 512MB */ main(void) { unsigned long i, offset, filesize; int fd; char buf[LEN]; time_t t1, t2; if (mount("/dev/sda1", "/root/test1/", "ext3", 0, 0) < 0) { perror("cannot mount\n"); exit(1); } memset(buf, 0, LEN); fd = open("/root/test1/testfile", O_CREAT|O_RDWR|O_TRUNC); if (fd < 0) { perror("cannot open file\n"); exit(1); } for (i = 0; i < LOOP; i++) write(fd, buf, LEN); close(fd); if (umount("/root/test1/") < 0) { perror("cannot umount\n"); exit(1); } if (mount("/dev/sda1", "/root/test1/", "ext3", 0, 0) < 0) { perror("cannot mount\n"); exit(1); } fd = open("/root/test1/testfile", O_RDWR); if (fd < 0) { perror("cannot open file\n"); exit(1); } filesize = LEN * LOOP; for (i = 0; i < 300000; i++){ offset = (random() % filesize) & (~(LEN - 1)); pwrite(fd, buf, LEN, offset); } printf("start test\n"); time(&t1); for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++){ offset = (random() % filesize) & (~(LEN - 1)); pread(fd, buf, LEN, offset); } time(&t2); printf("%ld sec\n", t2-t1); close(fd); if (umount("/root/test1/") < 0) { perror("cannot umount\n"); exit(1); } } Signed-off-by: Hisashi Hifumi <hifumi.hisashi@oss.ntt.co.jp> Cc: Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@ucw.cz> Cc: <linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* ext4: delayed allocation i_blocks fix for statMingming Cao2008-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now i_blocks is not getting updated until the blocks are actually allocaed on disk. This means with delayed allocation, right after files are copied, "ls -sF" shoes the file as taking 0 blocks on disk. "du" also shows the files taking zero space, which is highly confusing to the user. Since delayed allocation already keeps track of per-inode total number of blocks that are subject to delayed allocation, this patch fix this by using that to adjust the value returned by stat(2). When real block allocation is done, the i_blocks will get updated. Since the reserved blocks for delayed allocation will be decreased, this will be keep value returned by stat(2) consistent.

* ext4: fix delalloc i_disksize early update issueMingming Cao2008-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ext4_da_write_end() used walk_page_buffers() with a callback function of ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay() to check if it extended the file size without allocating any blocks (since in this case i_disksize needs to be updated). However, this is didn't work proprely because the buffer head has not been marked dirty yet --- this is done later in block_commit_write() --- which caused ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay() to always return false. In addition, walk_page_buffers() checks all of the buffer heads covering the page, and the only buffer_head that should be checked is the one covering the end of the write. Otherwise, given a 1k blocksize filesystem and a 4k page size, the buffer head covering the first 1k stripe of the file could be unmapped (because it was a sparse file), and the second or third buffer_head covering that page could be mapped, and using walk_page_buffers() would fail in this case since it would stop at the first unmapped buffer_head and return true. The core problem is that walk_page_buffers() was intended to do work in a callback function, and a non-zero return value indicated a failure, which termined the walk of the buffer heads covering the page. It was not intended to be used with a boolean function, such as ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay(). Add addtional fix from Aneesh to protect i_disksize update rave with truncate.

* ext4: Handle page without buffers in ext4_*_writepage()Aneesh Kumar K.V2008-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It can happen that buffers are removed from the page before it gets marked dirty and then is passed to writepage(). In writepage() we just initialize the buffers and check whether they are mapped and non delay. If they are mapped and non delay we write the page. Otherwise we mark them dirty. With this change we don't do block allocation at all in ext4_*_write_page. writepage() can get called under many condition and with a locking order of journal_start -> lock_page, we should not try to allocate blocks in writepage() which get called after taking page lock. writepage() can get called via shrink_page_list even with a journal handle which was created for doing inode update. For example when doing ext4_da_write_begin we create a journal handle with credit 1 expecting a i_disksize update for the inode. But ext4_da_write_begin can cause shrink_page_list via _grab_page_cache. So having a valid handle via ext4_journal_current_handle is not a guarantee that we can use the handle for block allocation in writepage, since we shouldn't be using credits that had been reserved for other updates. That it could result in we running out of credits when we update inodes.

* ext4: Add ordered mode support for delallocAneesh Kumar K.V2008-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides a new ordered mode implementation which gets rid of using buffer heads to enforce the ordering between metadata change with the related data chage. Instead, in the new ordering mode, it keeps track of all of the inodes touched by each transaction on a list, and when that transaction is committed, it flushes all of the dirty pages for those inodes. In addition, the new ordered mode reverses the lock ordering of the page lock and transaction lock, which provides easier support for delayed allocation.

* ext4: Invert the locking order of page_lock and transaction startJan Kara2008-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes are needed to support data=ordered mode handling via inodes. This enables us to get rid of the journal heads and buffer heads for data buffers in the ordered mode. With the changes, during tranasaction commit we writeout the inode pages using the writepages()/writepage(). That implies we take page lock during transaction commit. This can cause a deadlock with the locking order page_lock -> jbd2_journal_start, since the jbd2_journal_start can wait for the journal_commit to happen and the journal_commit now needs to take the page lock. To avoid this dead lock reverse the locking order.

We can't take inode->i_mutex in the mmap write path because that would result in a locking order violation between i_mutex and mmap_sem. Also adding a separate rw_sempahore for protection is really high overhead for a rare operation such as migrate.

* ext4: Fix BUG when writing to an unitialized extentMingming Cao2008-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug when writing to preallocated but uninitialized blocks, which resulted in a BUG in fs/buffer.c saying that the buffer is not mapped. When writing to a file, ext4_get_block_wrap() is called with create=1 in order to request that blocks be allocated if necessary. It currently calls ext4_get_blocks() with create=0 in order to do a lookup first. If the inode contains an unitialized data block, the buffer head is left unampped, which ext4_get_blocks_wrap() returns, causing the BUG. We fix this by checking to see if the buffer head is unmapped, and if so, we make sure the the buffer head is mapped by calling ext4_ext_get_blocks with create=1.

* ext4: modify block allocation algorithm for the last groupValerie Clement2008-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a directory inode is allocated in the last group and the last group contains less than s_blocks_per_group blocks, the initial block allocated for the directory is not always allocated in the same group as the directory inode, but in one of the first groups of the filesystem (group 1 for example). Depending on the current process's pid, ext4_find_near() and ext4_ext_find_goal() can return a block number greater than the maximum blocks count in the filesystem and in that case the block will be not allocated in the same group as the inode.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We cannot start transaction in ext4_direct_IO() and just let it last during the whole write because dio_get_page() acquires mmap_sem which ranks above transaction start (e.g. because we have dependency chain mmap_sem->PageLock->journal_start, or because we update atime while holding mmap_sem) and thus deadlocks could happen. We solve the problem by starting a transaction separately for each ext4_get_block() call. We *could* have a problem that we allocate a block and before its data are written out the machine crashes and thus we expose stale data. But that does not happen because for hole-filling generic code falls back to buffered writes and for file extension, we add inode to orphan list and thus in case of crash, journal replay will truncate inode back to the original size.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ext3 root inode was treated specially with respect to in-inode extended attributes, for reasons detailed in the removed comment below. The first mkfs-created inodes would not get extra_i_size or the EXT3_STATE_XATTR flag set in ext3_read_inode, which disallowed reading or setting in-inode EAs on the root. However, in ext4, ext4_mark_inode_dirty calls ext4_expand_extra_isize for all inodes; once this is done EAs may be placed in the root ext4 inode body. But for reasons above, it won't be found after a reboot. testcase: setfattr -n user.name -v value mntpt/ setfattr -n user.name2 -v value2 mntpt/ umount mntpt/; remount mntpt/ getfattr -d mntpt/ name2/value2 has gone missing; debugfs shows it in the inode body, but it is not found there by getattr.

Replace ext4_read_inode() with ext4_iget(), and call that instead of iget(). ext4_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code instead of an inode in the event of an error. ext4_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode instead of EINVAL.

* 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.

* ext4: Add inode version support in ext4Jean Noel Cordenner2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds 64-bit inode version support to ext4. The lower 32 bits are stored in the osd1.linux1.l_i_version field while the high 32 bits are stored in the i_version_hi field newly created in the ext4_inode. This field is incremented in case the ext4_inode is large enough. A i_version mount option has been added to enable the feature.
