* Ext4: Fix online resize block group descriptor corruptionFrederic Bohe2008-06-20
| | | | | | | | | | | This is the patch for the group descriptor table corruption during online resize pointed out by Theodore Tso. The problem was caused by the fact that the ext4 group descriptor can be either 32 or 64 bytes long. Only the 64 bytes structure was taken into account.

* ext4: enable barriers by defaultEric Sandeen2008-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I can't think of any valid reason for ext4 to not use barriers when they are available; I believe this is necessary for filesystem integrity in the face of a volatile write cache on storage. An administrator who trusts that the cache is sufficiently battery- backed (and power supplies are sufficiently redundant, etc...) can always turn it back off again. SuSE has carried such a patch for ext3 for quite some time now. Also document the mount option while we're at it.

* jbd2: If a journal checksum error is detected, propagate the error to ext4Theodore Ts'o2008-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | If a journal checksum error is detected, the ext4 filesystem will call ext4_error(), and the mount will either continue, become a read-only mount, or cause a kernel panic based on the superblock flags indicating the user's preference of what to do in case of filesystem corruption being detected.

* ext4: fix online resize bugJosef Bacik2008-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | There is a bug when we are trying to verify that the reserve inode's double indirect blocks point back to the primary gdt blocks. The fix is obvious, we need to mod the gdb count by the addr's per block. This was verified using the same testcase as with the ext3 equivalent of this patch.

* ext4: Fix uninit block group initialization with FLEX_BGJose R. Santos2008-06-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | With FLEX_BG block bitmaps, inode bitmaps and inode tables _MAY_ be allocated outside the group. So, when initializing an uninitialized block bitmap, we need to check the location of this blocks before setting the corresponding bits in the block bitmap of the newly initialized group. Also return the right number of free blocks when counting the available free blocks in uninit group. Tested-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@inux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jose R.

* ext4: mballoc fix mb_normalize_request algorithm for 1KB block size filesystemsValerie Clement2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case of inode preallocation, the number of blocks to allocate depends on the file size and it is calculated in ext4_mb_normalize_request(). Each group in the filesystem is then checked to find one that can be used for allocation; this is done in ext4_mb_good_group(). When a file bigger than 4MB is created, the requested number of blocks to preallocate, calculated by ext4_mb_normalize_request is 4096. However for a filesystem with 1KB block size, the maximum size of the block buddies used by the multiblock allocator is 2048, so none of groups in the filesystem satisfies the search criteria in ext4_mb_good_group(). Scanning all the filesystem groups impacts performance. This was demonstrated by using a freshly created, 70GB, 1k block filesystem, with caches dropped write before the test via /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches, and with the filesystem mounted with nodelalloc and nodealloc,nomballoc. The time to write an 8 megabyte file using "dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/fo bs=8k count=1k conv=fsync" took 35.5091 seconds (236kB/s) with nodellaloc, and 0.233754 seconds (35.9 MB/s) with the nodelloc,nomballoc options. With a 1TB partition, it took several minutes to write 8MB! This patch modifies the algorithm in ext4_mb_normalize_group_request to calculate the number of blocks to allocate by taking into account the maximum size of free blocks chunks handled by the multiblock allocator. It has also been tested for filesystems with 2KB and 4KB block sizes to ensure that those cases don't regress.

Also we should not allow user to change quota format when quota is turned on.

This situation only happens we format ext3/4 with inode size more than 128 and we have put xattr entries both in ibody and block. The consequences about this bug is we will lost the xattr block which pointed by i_file_acl with all xattr entires in it. We will alloc a new xattr block and put that large value entry in it. The old xattr block will become orphan block.

* ext4: Fix race between migration and mmap writeAneesh Kumar K.V2008-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fail migrate if we allocated new blocks via mmap write. If we write to holes in the file via mmap, we end up allocating new blocks. This block allocation happens without taking inode->i_mutex. Since migrate is protected by i_mutex and migrate expects that no new blocks get allocated during migrate, fail migrate if new blocks get allocated. 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: zero out small extents when writing to prealloc area.Aneesh Kumar K.V2008-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | If the preallocated area is small zero out the full extent instead of splitting them. This should avoid the "write every alternate block" problem that could grow the number of extents dramatically.

* ext4: ENOSPC error handling for writing to an uninitialized extentAneesh Kumar K.V2008-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch handles possible ENOSPC errors when writing to an uninitialized extent in case the filesystem is full. A write to a prealloc area causes the split of an unititalized extent into initialized and uninitialized extents. If we don't have space to add new extent information, instead of returning error, convert the existing uninitialized extent to initialized one. We need to zero out the blocks corresponding to the entire extent to prevent uninitialized data reaching userspace.

* ext4: Enable extent format for symlinks.Aneesh Kumar K.V2008-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables extent-formatted normal symlinks. Using extents format allows a symlink to refer to a block number larger than 2^32 on large filesystems. We still don't enable extent format for fast symlinks, which are contained in the inode itself.

* ext4: fdatasync should skip metadata writeout when overwritingHisashi Hifumi2008-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently fdatasync is identical to fsync in ext3. I think fdatasync should skip journal flush in data=ordered and data=writeback mode when it overwrites to already-instantiated blocks on HDD. When I_DIRTY_DATASYNC flag is not set, fdatasync should skip journal writeout because this indicates only atime or/and mtime updates. Following patch is the same approach of ext2's fsync code(ext2_sync_file). I did a performance test using the sysbench. #sysbench --num-threads=128 --max-requests=50000 --test=fileio --file-total-size=128G --file-test-mode=rndwr --file-fsync-mode=fdatasync run The result on ext3 was: -2.6.24 Operations performed: 0 Read, 50080 Write, 59600 Other = 109680 Total Read 0b Written 782.5Mb Total transferred 782.5Mb (12.116Mb/sec) 775.45 Requests/sec executed Test execution summary: total time: 64.5814s total number of events: 50080 total time taken by event execution: 3713.9836 per-request statistics: min: 0.0000s avg: 0.0742s max: 0.9375s approx. 95 percentile: 0.2901s Threads fairness: events (avg/stddev): 391.2500/23.26 execution time (avg/stddev): 29.0155/1.99 -2.6.24-patched Operations performed: 0 Read, 50009 Write, 61596 Other = 111605 Total Read 0b Written 781.39Mb Total transferred 781.39Mb (16.419Mb/sec) 1050.83 Requests/sec executed Test execution summary: total time: 47.5900s total number of events: 50009 total time taken by event execution: 2934.5768 per-request statistics: min: 0.0000s avg: 0.0587s max: 0.8938s approx. 95 percentile: 0.1993s Threads fairness: events (avg/stddev): 390.6953/22.64 execution time (avg/stddev): 22.9264/1.17 Filesystem I/O throughput was improved.
