2008-10-16ext2: fix ext2 block reservation early ENOSPC issueMingming Cao
We could run into ENOSPC error on ext2, even when there is free blocks on the filesystem. The problem is triggered in the case the goal block group has 0 free blocks , and the rest block groups are skipped due to the check of "free_blocks < windowsz/2". Current code could fall back to non reservation allocation to prevent early ENOSPC after examing all the block groups with reservation on , but this code was bypassed if the reservation window is turned off already, which is true in this case. This patch fixed two issues: 1) We don't need to turn off block reservation if the goal block group has 0 free blocks left and continue search for the rest of block groups. Current code the intention is to turn off the block reservation if the goal allocation group has a few (some) free blocks left (not enough for make the desired reservation window),to try to allocation in the goal block group, to get better locality. But if the goal blocks have 0 free blocks, it should leave the block reservation on, and continues search for the next block groups,rather than turn off block reservation completely. 2) we don't need to check the window size if the block reservation is off. The problem was originally found and fixed in ext4.

2008-04-28ext2: retry block allocation if new blocks are allocated from system zoneAneesh Kumar K.V
If the block allocator gets blocks out of system zone ext2 calls ext2_error. But if the file system is mounted with errors=continue retry block allocation. We need to mark the system zone blocks as in use to make sure retry don't pick them again System zone is the block range mapping block bitmap, inode bitmap and inode table.

2007-11-13Revert "ext2/ext3/ext4: add block bitmap validation"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 7c9e69faa28027913ee059c285a5ea8382e24b5d, fixing up conflicts in fs/ext4/balloc.c manually. The cost of doing the bitmap validation on each lookup - even when the bitmap is cached - is absolutely prohibitive. We could, and probably should, do it only when adding the bitmap to the buffer cache. However, right now we are better off just reverting it. Peter Zijlstra measured the cost of this extra validation as a 85% decrease in cached iozone, and while I had a patch that took it down to just 17% by not being _quite_ so stupid in the validation, it was still a big slowdown that could have been avoided by just doing it right.

2007-10-17lib: percpu_counter_subPeter Zijlstra
Hugh spotted that some code does: percpu_counter_add(&counter, -unsignedlong) which, when the amount argument is of type s32, sort-of works thanks to two's-complement. However when we'd change the type to s64 this breaks on 32bit machines, because the promotion rules zero extend the unsigned number. Provide percpu_counter_sub() to hide the s64 cast. That is: percpu_counter_sub(&counter, foo) is equal to: percpu_counter_add(&counter, -(s64)foo); Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2006-09-19[PATCH] EXT2: Remove superblock lock contention in ext2_statfsDave Kleikamp
Fix a performance degradation introduced in 2.6.17. (30% degradation running dbench with 16 threads) Commit 21730eed11de42f22afcbd43f450a1872a0b5ea1, which claims to make EXT2_DEBUG work again, moves the taking of the kernel lock out of debug-only code in ext2_count_free_inodes and ext2_count_free_blocks and into ext2_statfs.

2006-06-25[PATCH] Make EXT2_DEBUG work againValerie Henson
This patch makes EXT2_DEBUG work again. Due to lack of proper include file, EXT2_DEBUG was undefined in bitmap.c and ext2_count_free() is left out. Moved to balloc.c and removed bitmap.c entirely. Second, debug versions of ext2_count_free_{inodes/blocks} reacquires superblock lock. Moved lock into callers.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
