* sched: fix process time monotonicityBalbir Singh2008-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Spencer reported a problem where utime and stime were going negative despite the fixes in commit b27f03d4bdc145a09fb7b0c0e004b29f1ee555fa. The suspected reason for the problem is that signal_struct maintains it's own utime and stime (of exited tasks), these are not updated using the new task_utime() routine, hence sig->utime can go backwards and cause the same problem to occur (sig->utime, adds tsk->utime and not task_utime()). This patch fixes the problem TODO: using max(task->prev_utime, derived utime) works for now, but a more generic solution is to implement cputime_max() and use the cputime_gt() function for comparison.

* | cifs: fix O_APPEND on directio mountsJeff Layton2008-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The direct I/O write codepath for CIFS is done through cifs_user_write(). That function does not currently call generic_write_checks() so the file position isn't being properly set when the file is opened with O_APPEND. It's also not doing the other "normal" checks that should be done for a write call. The problem is currently that when you open a file with O_APPEND on a mount with the directio mount option, the file position is set to the beginning of the file. This makes any subsequent writes clobber the data in the file starting at the beginning. This seems to fix the problem in cursory testing. It is, however important to note that NFS disallows the combination of (O_DIRECT|O_APPEND). If my understanding is correct, the concern is races with multiple clients appending to a file clobbering each others' data. Since the write model for CIFS and NFS is pretty similar in this regard, CIFS is probably subject to the same sort of races. What's unclear to me is why this is a particular problem with O_DIRECT and not with buffered writes... Regardless, disallowing O_APPEND on an entire mount is probably not reasonable, so we'll probably just have to deal with it and reevaluate this flag combination when we get proper support for O_DIRECT. In the meantime this patch at least fixes the existing problem. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Cc: Stable Tree <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

Note that plaintexti authentication requires setting /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags to 0x30030 on the client (enabling both LANMAN and also plaintext password support). Also note that LANMAN support (and thus plaintext password support) requires CONFIG_CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH to be enabled in menuconfig.

Since we didn't know exactly how many blocks would need to be allocated, the estimated journal credits required was very conservative and caused many issues. With the reworked delayed allocation, a new transaction is created for each get_block(), thus we don't need to guess how many credits for the multiple chunk of allocation. We start every transaction with enough credits for inserting a single exent. When estimate the credits for indirect blocks to allocate a chunk of blocks, we need to know the number of data blocks to allocate. We use the total number of reserved delalloc datablocks; if that is too big, for non-extent files, we need to limit the number of blocks to EXT4_MAX_TRANS_BLOCKS. Code cleanup from Aneesh.

| | * | ext4: Rework the ext4_da_writepages() functionAneesh Kumar K.V2008-08-19

This makes sure we don't take too much journal credits during writeout. We also don't limit the pages to write. That means we loop through the dirty pages building largest possible contiguous block request. Then we issue a single get_block request. We may get less block that we requested. If so we would end up not mapping some of the buffer_heads. That means those buffer_heads are still marked delay. Later in the writepage callback via __mpage_writepage we redirty those pages. We should also not limit/throttle wbc->nr_to_write in the filesystem writepages callback. That cause wrong behaviour in generic_sync_sb_inodes caused by wbc->nr_to_write being <= 0 Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
| | * | ext4: journal credits reservation fixes for DIO, fallocateMingming Cao2008-08-19

This patch uses the helper function in DIO and fallocate case, passing a flag indicating that the modified data are contigous thus could account less indirect/index blocks. This patch also fixed the journal credit reservation for direct I/O (DIO). Previously the estimated credits for DIO only was calculated for non-extent files, which was not enough if the file is extent-based. Also fixed was fallocate double-counting credits for modifying the the superblock.

The current calculation of how many index/leaf blocks should be accounted is too conservetive, it always considered the worse case, where the tree level is 5, and in the case of multiple chunk allocations, it always assumed no blocks were dirtied in common across the allocations. This path uses the accurate depth of the inode with some extras to calculate the index blocks, and also less conservative in the case of multiple allocation accounting.

There are many places in ext4 do the calculation on their own and often missed one or two meta blocks, and often they assume single block allocation, and did not considering the multile chunk of allocation case. This patch is trying to cleanup current journal credit code, provides some common helper funtion to calculate the journal credits, to be used for writepage, writepages, DIO, fallocate, migration, defrag, and for both nonextent and extent files. This patch modified the writepage/write_begin credit caculation for nonextent files, to use the new helper function. It also fixed the problem that writepage on nonextent files did not consider the case blocksize <pagesize, thus could possibelly need multiple block allocation in a single transaction.

| | * | ext4: Fix bug where we return ENOSPC even though we have plenty of inodesEric Sandeen2008-08-19

Some of the flex groups searched have free blocks and free inodes, but the flex_freeb_ratio is < 10, so they're skipped. Then when a group is compared to the current "best" flex group, it does not have more free blocks than "best", so it is skipped as well. This continues until no flex group with free inodes is found which has a proper ratio or which has more free blocks than the "best" group, and we're left with a "best" group that has 0 inodes free, and we return -ENOSPC. We fix this by changing the logic so that if the current "best" flex group has no inodes free, and the current one does have room, it is promoted to the next "best."
