* [XFS] Write at EOF may not update filesize correctly.David Chinner2007-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The recent fix for preventing NULL files from being left around does not update the file size corectly in all cases. The missing case is a write extending the file that does not need to allocate a block. In that case we used a read mapping of the extent which forced the use of the read I/O completion handler instead of the write I/O completion handle. Hence the file size was not updated on I/O completion.

* | Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplugRafael J. Wysocki2007-05-09
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

| * [XFS] Fix to prevent the notorious 'NULL files' problem after a crash.Lachlan McIlroy2007-05-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem that has been addressed is that of synchronising updates of the file size with writes that extend a file. Without the fix the update of a file's size, as a result of a write beyond eof, is independent of when the cached data is flushed to disk. Often the file size update would be written to the filesystem log before the data is flushed to disk. When a system crashes between these two events and the filesystem log is replayed on mount the file's size will be set but since the contents never made it to disk the file is full of holes. If some of the cached data was flushed to disk then it may just be a section of the file at the end that has holes. There are existing fixes to help alleviate this problem, particularly in the case where a file has been truncated, that force cached data to be flushed to disk when the file is closed. If the system crashes while the file(s) are still open then this flushing will never occur. The fix that we have implemented is to introduce a second file size, called the in-memory file size, that represents the current file size as viewed by the user. The existing file size, called the on-disk file size, is the one that get's written to the filesystem log and we only update it when it is safe to do so. When we write to a file beyond eof we only update the in- memory file size in the write operation. Later when the I/O operation, that flushes the cached data to disk completes, an I/O completion routine will update the on-disk file size. The on-disk file size will be updated to the maximum offset of the I/O or to the value of the in-memory file size if the I/O includes eof.

| * [XFS] Fix race condition in xfs_write().Lachlan McIlroy2007-05-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change addresses a race in xfs_write() where, for direct I/O, the flags need_i_mutex and need_flush are setup before the iolock is acquired. The logic used to setup the flags may change between setting the flags and acquiring the iolock resulting in these flags having incorrect values. For example, if a file is not currently cached then need_i_mutex is set to zero and then if the file is cached before the iolock is acquired we will fail to do the flushinval before the direct write. The flush (and also the call to xfs_zero_eof()) need to be done with the iolock held exclusive so we need to acquire the iolock before checking for cached data (or if the write begins after eof) to prevent this state from changing. For direct I/O I've chosen to always acquire the iolock in shared mode initially and if there is a need to promote it then drop it and reacquire it. There's also some other tidy-ups including removing the O_APPEND offset adjustment since that work is done in generic_write_checks() (and we don't use offset as an input parameter anywhere).

* slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flagChristoph Lameter2007-05-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by SLAB. I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is performed before each freeing of an object. I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually before the free. That also places the check near the code object manipulation of the object. Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree). There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors. This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for unimplemented flags from SLUB.

Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau2007-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

* [PATCH] Make BH_Unwritten a first class bufferhead flag V2David Chinner2007-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, XFS uses BH_PrivateStart for flagging unwritten extent state in a bufferhead. Recently, I found the long standing mmap/unwritten extent conversion bug, and it was to do with partial page invalidation not clearing the unwritten flag from bufferheads attached to the page but beyond EOF. See here for a full explaination: http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-12/msg00196.html The solution I have checked into the XFS dev tree involves duplicating code from block_invalidatepage to clear the unwritten flag from the bufferhead(s), and then calling block_invalidatepage() to do the rest. Christoph suggested that this would be better solved by pushing the unwritten flag into the common buffer head flags and just adding the call to discard_buffer(): http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-12/msg00239.html The following patch makes BH_Unwritten a first class citizen.

* [XFS] Remove unused arguments from the XFS_BTREE_*_ADDR macros.Eric Sandeen2007-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It makes it incrementally clearer to read the code when the top of a macro spaghetti-pile only receives the 3 arguments it uses, rather than 2 extra ones which are not used. Also when you start pulling this thread out of the sweater (i.e. remove unused args from XFS_BTREE_*_ADDR), a couple other third arms etc fall off too. If they're not used in the macro, then they sometimes don't need to be passed to the function calling the macro either, etc.... Patch provided by Eric Sandeen (sandeen@sandeen.net).

* [XFS] Remove unused header files for MAC and CAP checking functionality.Eric Sandeen2007-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xfs_mac.h and xfs_cap.h provide definitions and macros that aren't used anywhere in XFS at all. They are left-overs from "to be implement at some point in the future" functionality that Irix XFS has. If this functionality ever goes into Linux, it will be provided at a different layer, most likely through the security hooks in the kernel so we will never need this functionality in XFS.

* [XFS] Fix callers of xfs_iozero() to zero the correct range.Lachlan McIlroy2007-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem is the two callers of xfs_iozero() are rounding out the range to be zeroed to the end of a fsb and in some cases this extends past the new eof. The call to commit_write() in xfs_iozero() will cause the Linux inode's file size to be set too high.

* [XFS] Ensure a frozen filesystem has a clean log before writing the dummyDavid Chinner2007-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | record. The current Linux XFS freeze code is a mess. We flush the metadata buffers out while we are still allowing new transactions to start and then fail to flush the dirty buffers back out before writing the unmount and dummy records to the log. This leads to problems when the frozen filesystem is used for snapshots - we do log recovery on a readonly image and often it appears that the log image in the snapshot is not correct. Hence we end up with hangs, oops and mount failures when trying to mount a snapshot image that has been created when the filesystem has not been correctly frozen. To fix this, we need to move th metadata flush to after we wait for all current transactions to complete in teh second stage of the freeze. This means that when we write the final log records, the log should be clean and recovery should never occur on a snapshot image created from a frozen filesystem.

* [XFS] Fix sub-block zeroing for buffered writes into unwritten extents.David Chinner2007-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When writing less than a filesystem block of data into an unwritten extent via buffered I/O, __xfs_get_blocks fails to set the buffer new flag. As a result, the generic code will not zero either edge of the block resulting in garbage being written to disk either side of the real data. Set the buffer new state on bufferd writes to unwritten extents to ensure that zeroing occurs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The block reservation mechanism has been broken since the per-cpu superblock counters were introduced. Make the block reservation code work with the per-cpu counters by syncing the counters, snapshotting the amount of available space and then doing a modifcation of the counter state according to the result. Continue in a loop until we either have no space available or we reserve some space.
