| * 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>

Follow the example of btrfs (and in slightly different form ext4) and refuse to write out data from reclaim context. This issue should really be handled by the VM so that we can tune better for this case, but until we get it sorted out there we have to hack around this in each filesystem with a complex writeback path.

| | * | | | | | xfs: fix race in inode cluster freeing failing to stale inodesDave Chinner2010-06-03

This is eeded because the inodes have a different life cycle to the buffer, and once the buffer is torn down during transaction completion, we must ensure none of the inodes get written back (which is what XFS_ISTALE does). Unfortunately, xfs_ifree_cluster() has some bugs that lead to inodes not being marked with XFS_ISTALE. This shows up when xfs_iflush() is called on these inodes either during inode reclaim or tail pushing on the AIL. The buffer is read back, but no longer contains inodes and so triggers assert failures and shutdowns. This was reproducable with at run.dbench10 invocation from xfstests. There are two main causes of xfs_ifree_cluster() failing. The first is simple - it checks in-memory inodes it finds in the per-ag icache to see if they are clean without holding the flush lock. if they are clean it skips them completely. However, If an inode is flushed delwri, it will appear clean, but is not guaranteed to be written back until the flush lock has been dropped. Hence we may have raced on the clean check and the inode may actually be dirty. Hence always mark inodes found in memory stale before we check properly if they are clean. The second is more complex, and makes the first problem easier to hit. Basically the in-memory inode scan is done with full knowledge it can be racing with inode flushing and AIl tail pushing, which means that inodes that it can't get the flush lock on might not be attached to the buffer after then in-memory inode scan due to IO completion occurring. This is actually documented in the code as "needs better interlocking". i.e. this is a zero-day bug. Effectively, the in-memory scan must be done while the inode buffer is locked and Io cannot be issued on it while we do the in-memory inode scan. This ensures that inodes we couldn't get the flush lock on are guaranteed to be attached to the cluster buffer, so we can then catch all in-memory inodes and mark them stale. Now that the inode cluster buffer is locked before the in-memory scan is done, there is no need for the two-phase update of the in-memory inodes, so simplify the code into two loops and remove the allocation of the temporary buffer used to hold locked inodes across the phases.

| | * | | | | | xfs: fix access to upper inodes without inode64Christoph Hellwig2010-05-28

For this to work we need to make sure the inode cache radix tree is initialized for all allocation groups, not just those we plan to allocate inodes from. This patch makes sure we initialize the inode cache radix tree for all allocation groups, and also cleans xfs_initialize_perag up a bit to separate the inode32 logical from the general perag structure setup.
