* [PATCH] powerpc: Kill _machine and hard-coded platform numbersBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism. With this, board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine. We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of _machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants. This commit also changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at _machine.

* [PATCH] powerpc: Cope with duplicate node & property names in /proc/device-treeMichael Ellerman2006-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Various dodgy firmware might give us nodes and/or properties in the device tree with conflicting names. That's generally ok, except for when we export the device tree via /proc, so check when we're creating the proc device tree and munge names accordingly. Tested on a faked device tree with kexec, would be good if someone with actual bogus firmware could try it, but just for completeness.

Only the filesystems who care to use this information and provide multiple disk blocks at a time can choose to do so. No changes are needed for the filesystems who wants to ignore this.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Optimize the block reservation and the multiple block allocation: with the knowledge of the total number of blocks ahead, set or adjust the reservation window size properly (based on the number of blocks needed) before block allocation happens: if there isn't any reservation yet, make sure the reservation window equals to or greater than the number of blocks needed, before create an reservation window; if a reservation window is already exists, try to extends the window size to match the number of blocks to allocate. This could increase the possibility of completing multiple blocks allocation in a single request, as blocks are only allocated in the range of the inode's reservation window.

* | [PATCH] ext3_get_blocks: Mapping multiple blocks at a onceMingming Cao2006-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently ext3_get_block() only maps or allocates one block at a time. This is quite inefficient for sequential IO workload. I have posted a early implements a simply multiple block map and allocation with current ext3. The basic idea is allocating the 1st block in the existing way, and attempting to allocate the next adjacent blocks on a best effort basis. More description about the implementation could be found here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=112162230003522&w=2 The following the latest version of the patch: break the original patch into 5 patches, re-worked some logicals, and fixed some bugs. The break ups are: [patch 1] Adding map multiple blocks at a time in ext3_get_blocks() [patch 2] Extend ext3_get_blocks() to support multiple block allocation [patch 3] Implement multiple block allocation in ext3-try-to-allocate (called via ext3_new_block()). [patch 4] Proper accounting updates in ext3_new_blocks() [patch 5] Adjust reservation window size properly (by the given number of blocks to allocate) before block allocation to increase the possibility of allocating multiple blocks in a single call. Tests done so far includes fsx,tiobench and dbench. The following numbers collected from Direct IO tests (1G file creation/read) shows the system time have been greatly reduced (more than 50% on my 8 cpu system) with the patches. 1G file DIO write: 2.6.15 2.6.15+patches real 0m31.275s 0m31.161s user 0m0.000s 0m0.000s sys 0m3.384s 0m0.564s 1G file DIO read: 2.6.15 2.6.15+patches real 0m30.733s 0m30.624s user 0m0.000s 0m0.004s sys 0m0.748s 0m0.380s Some previous test we did on buffered IO with using multiple blocks allocation and delayed allocation shows noticeable improvement on throughput and system time. This patch: Add support of mapping multiple blocks in one call. This is useful for DIO reads and re-writes (where blocks are already allocated), also is in line with Christoph's proposal of using getblocks() in mpage_readpage() or mpage_readpages().

* | [PATCH] protect remove_proc_entrySteven Rostedt2006-03-26
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It has been discovered that the remove_proc_entry has a race in the removing of entries in the proc file system that are siblings. There's no protection around the traversing and removing of elements that belong in the same subdirectory. This subdirectory list is protected in other areas by the BKL. So the BKL was at first used to protect this area too, but unfortunately, remove_proc_entry may be called with spinlocks held. The BKL may schedule, so this was not a solution. The final solution was to add a new global spin lock to protect this list, called proc_subdir_lock. This lock now protects the list in remove_proc_entry, and I also went around looking for other areas that this list is modified and added this protection there too. Care must be taken since these locations call several functions that may also schedule. Since I don't see any location that these functions that modify the subdirectory list are called by interrupts, the irqsave/restore versions of the spin lock was _not_ used.

It represents part of the functionality that was provided by the auditfs patch included in RHEL4. Specifically, it: - Collects information for target inodes created or removed during syscalls. Previous code only collects information for the target inode's parent. - Adds the audit_inode() hook to syscalls that operate on a file descriptor (e.g. fchown), enabling audit to do inode filtering for these calls. - Modifies filtering code to check audit context for either an inode # or a parent inode # matching a given rule. - Modifies logging to provide inode # for both parent and child. - Protect debug info from NULL audit_names.name.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thanks to Frank Filz for pointing out that we list system.nfs4_acl extended attribute even on filesystems where we don't actually support nfs4_acl. This is inconsistent with the e.g. ext3 POSIX ACL behaviour, and seems to annoy cp. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently this will not happen if we exit before rpc_new_task() was called. Also fix up rpc_run_task() to do the same (for consistency). Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
| * | | | NFS: Fix a race in nfs_sync_inode()Trond Myklebust2006-03-20

The solution is to search for requests to wait upon, search for dirty requests, and search for uncommitted requests while holding the nfsi->req_lock The patch also cleans up nfs_sync_inode(), getting rid of the redundant FLUSH_WAIT flag. It turns out that we were always setting it. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

| * | | | NFS: Fix a race with PG_private and nfs_release_page()Trond Myklebust2006-03-20

However there is a small race in nfs_readpage_release() whereby the page may be unlocked, and have PG_private set. Fix is to have PG_private set only for the case of writes... Also fix a bug in nfs_clear_page_writeback(): Don't attempt to clear the radix_tree tag if we've already deleted the radix tree entry. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
| * | | | NFSv4: Ensure the callback daemon flushes signalsTrond Myklebust2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the callback daemon is signalled, but is unable to exit because it still has users, then we need to flush signals. If not, then svc_recv() can never sleep, and so we hang. If we flush signals, then we also have to be prepared to resend them when we want the thread to exit.
