| * writeback: optimize periodic bdi thread wakeupsArtem Bityutskiy2010-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Whe the first inode for a bdi is marked dirty, we wake up the bdi thread which should take care of the periodic background write-out. However, the write-out will actually start only 'dirty_writeback_interval' centisecs later, so we can delay the wake-up. This change was requested by Nick Piggin who pointed out that if we delay the wake-up, we weed out 2 unnecessary contex switches, which matters because '__mark_inode_dirty()' is a hot-path function. This patch introduces a new function - 'bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed()', which sets up a timer to wake-up the bdi thread and returns. So the wake-up is delayed. We also delete the timer in bdi threads just before writing-back. And synchronously delete it when unregistering bdi. At the unregister point the bdi does not have any users, so no one can arm it again. Since now we take 'bdi->wb_lock' in the timer, which can execute in softirq context, we have to use 'spin_lock_bh()' for 'bdi->wb_lock'. This patch makes this change as well. This patch also moves the 'bdi_wb_init()' function down in the file to avoid forward-declaration of 'bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed()'.

| * writeback: prevent unnecessary bdi threads wakeupsArtem Bityutskiy2010-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Finally, we can get rid of unnecessary wake-ups in bdi threads, which are very bad for battery-driven devices. There are two types of activities bdi threads do: 1. process bdi works from the 'bdi->work_list' 2. periodic write-back So there are 2 sources of wake-up events for bdi threads: 1. 'bdi_queue_work()' - submits bdi works 2. '__mark_inode_dirty()' - adds dirty I/O to bdi's The former already has bdi wake-up code. The latter does not, and this patch adds it. '__mark_inode_dirty()' is hot-path function, but this patch adds another 'spin_lock(&bdi->wb_lock)' there. However, it is taken only in rare cases when the bdi has no dirty inodes. So adding this spinlock should be fine and should not affect performance. This patch makes sure bdi threads and the forker thread do not wake-up if there is nothing to do. The forker thread will nevertheless wake up at least every 5 min. to check whether it has to kill a bdi thread. This can also be optimized, but is not worth it. This patch also tidies up the warning about unregistered bid, and turns it from an ugly crocodile to a simple 'WARN()' statement.

| * writeback: move bdi threads exiting logic to the forker threadArtem Bityutskiy2010-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, bdi threads can decide to exit if there were no useful activities for 5 minutes. However, this causes nasty races: we can easily oops in the 'bdi_queue_work()' if the bdi thread decides to exit while we are waking it up. And even if we do not oops, but the bdi tread exits immediately after we wake it up, we'd lose the wake-up event and have an unnecessary delay (up to 5 secs) in the bdi work processing. This patch makes the forker thread to be the central place which not only creates bdi threads, but also kills them if they were inactive long enough. This better design-wise. Another reason why this change was done is to prepare for the further changes which will prevent the bdi threads from waking up every 5 sec and wasting power. Indeed, when the task does not wake up periodically anymore, it won't be able to exit either. This patch also moves the the 'wake_up_bit()' call from the bdi thread to the forker thread as well. So now the forker thread sets the BDI_pending bit, then forks the task or kills it, then clears the bit and wakes up the waiting process. The only process which may wain on the bit is 'bdi_wb_shutdown()'. This function was changed as well - now it first removes the bdi from the 'bdi_list', then waits on the 'BDI_pending' bit. Once it wakes up, it is guaranteed that the forker thread won't race with it, because the bdi is not visible. Note, the forker thread sets the 'BDI_pending' bit under the 'bdi->wb_lock' which is essential for proper serialization. And additionally, when we change 'bdi->wb.task', we now take the 'bdi->work_lock', to make sure that we do not lose wake-ups which we otherwise would when raced with, say, 'bdi_queue_work()'.

| * writeback: move last_active to bdiArtem Bityutskiy2010-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently bdi threads use local variable 'last_active' which stores last time when the bdi thread did some useful work. Move this local variable to 'struct bdi_writeback'. This is just a preparation for the further patches which will make the forker thread decide when bdi threads should be killed.

| * writeback: do not remove bdi from bdi_listArtem Bityutskiy2010-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The forker thread removes bdis from 'bdi_list' before forking the bdi thread. But this is wrong for at least 2 reasons. Reason #1: if we temporary remove a bdi from the list, we may miss works which would otherwise be given to us. Reason #2: this is racy; indeed, 'bdi_wb_shutdown()' expects that bdis are always in the 'bdi_list' (see 'bdi_remove_from_list()'), and when it races with the forker thread, it can shut down the bdi thread at the same time as the forker creates it. This patch makes sure the forker thread never removes bdis from 'bdi_list' (which was suggested by Christoph Hellwig). In order to make sure that we do not race with 'bdi_wb_shutdown()', we have to hold the 'bdi_lock' while walking the 'bdi_list' and setting the 'BDI_pending' flag. NOTE! The error path is interesting. Currently, when we fail to create a bdi thread, we move the bdi to the tail of 'bdi_list'. But if we never remove the bdi from the list, we cannot move it to the tail either, because then we can mess up the RCU readers which walk the list. And also, we'll have the race described above in "Reason #2". But I not think that adding to the tail is any important so I just do not do that.

| * writeback: do not lose wake-ups in bdi threadsArtem Bityutskiy2010-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, bdi threads ('bdi_writeback_thread()') can lose wake-ups. For example, if 'bdi_queue_work()' is executed after the bdi thread have had finished 'wb_do_writeback()' but before it called 'schedule_timeout_interruptible()'. To fix this issue, we have to check whether we have works to process after we have changed the task state to 'TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE'. This patch also clean-ups handling of the cases when 'dirty_writeback_interval' is zero or non-zero. Additionally, this patch also removes unneeded 'list_empty_careful()' call.

| * writeback: harmonize writeback threads namingArtem Bityutskiy2010-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The write-back code mixes words "thread" and "task" for the same things. This is not a big deal, but still an inconsistency. hch: a convention I tend to use and I've seen in various places is to always use _task for the storage of the task_struct pointer, and thread everywhere else. This especially helps with having foo_thread for the actual thread and foo_task for a global variable keeping the task_struct pointer This patch renames: * 'bdi_add_default_flusher_task()' -> 'bdi_add_default_flusher_thread()' * 'bdi_forker_task()' -> 'bdi_forker_thread()' because bdi threads are 'bdi_writeback_thread()', so these names are more consistent. This patch also amends commentaries and makes them refer the forker and bdi threads as "thread", not "task". Also, while on it, make 'bdi_add_default_flusher_thread()' declaration use 'static void' instead of 'void static' and make checkpatch.pl happy.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK is clearly documented to only affect blocking on the pipe. In __generic_file_splice_read(), however, it causes an EAGAIN if the page is currently being read. This makes it impossible to write an application that only wants failure if the pipe is full. For example if the same process is handling both ends of a pipe and isn't otherwise able to determine whether a splice to the pipe will fill it or not. We could make the read non-blocking on O_NONBLOCK or some other splice flag, but for now this is the simplest fix.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The open and release block_device_operations are currently called with the BKL held. In order to change that, we must first make sure that all drivers that currently rely on this have no regressions. This blindly pushes the BKL into all .open and .release operations for all block drivers to prepare for the next step. The drivers can subsequently replace the BKL with their own locks or remove it completely when it can be shown that it is not needed. The functions blkdev_get and blkdev_put are the only remaining users of the big kernel lock in the block layer, besides a few uses in the ioctl code, none of which need to serialize with blkdev_{get,put}. Most of these two functions is also under the protection of bdev->bd_mutex, including the actual calls to ->open and ->release, and the common code does not access any global data structures that need the BKL.

Most filesystems already get this implicitly by the way how submit_bh treats the buffer_ordered flag, and gfs2 sets it explicitly. But btrfs and XFS are still forgetting to set the flag, as is blkdev_issue_flush and some places in DM/MD. For XFS on metadata heavy workloads this gives a consistent speedup in the 2-3% range.

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com: These are the changes needed for the kernel to support LINEMODE in the server. There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC. When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of what state the user wants the terminal to be in. New ioctl: TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the current process group of the pty. There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit. When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state. Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for any remote terminal protocol, including ssh. The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.

The reason seems to be that ecryptfs calls lookup_one_len() to get the lower dentry, which in turn calls the lower parent dirs d_revalidate() with a NULL nameidata object. If ecryptfs is the underlaying filesystem, the NULL pointer dereference occurs, since ecryptfs is not prepared to handle a NULL nameidata. I know that this cant happen any more, since it is no longer allowed to mount ecryptfs upon itself. But maybe this patch it useful nevertheless, since the problem would still apply for an underlaying filesystem that implements d_revalidate() and is not prepared to handle a NULL nameidata (I dont know if there actually is such a fs). With this patch (against 2.6.35-rc5) ecryptfs uses the vfs_lookup_path() function instead of lookup_one_len() which ensures that the nameidata passed to the lower filesystems d_revalidate().

This patch introduces ecryptfs_unlocked_ioctl() and ecryptfs_compat_ioctl(), which passes the calls on to the lower file system. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ecryptfs/+bug/469664 Reported-by: James Dupin <james.dupin@gmail.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
