2008-10-13vfs: Use const for kernel parser tableSteven Whitehouse
This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble. This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm since then.

2008-07-25fuse: nfs export special lookupsMiklos Szeredi
Implement the get_parent export operation by sending a LOOKUP request with ".." as the name. Implement looking up an inode by node ID after it has been evicted from the cache. This is done by seding a LOOKUP request with "." as the name (for all file types, not just directories). The filesystem can set the FUSE_EXPORT_SUPPORT flag in the INIT reply, to indicate that it supports these special lookups. Thanks to John Muir for the original implementation of this feature.

2008-07-25fuse: add export operationsMiklos Szeredi
Implement export_operations, to allow fuse filesystems to be exported to NFS. This feature has been in the out-of-tree fuse module, and is widely used and tested. It has not been originally merged into mainline, because doing the NFS export in userspace was thought to be a cleaner and more efficient way of doing it, than through the kernel. While that is true, it would also have involved a lot of duplicated effort at reimplementing NFS exporting (all the different versions of the protocol). This effort was unfortunately not undertaken by anyone, so we are left with doing it the easy but less efficient way. If this feature goes in, the out-of-tree fuse module can go away, which would have several advantages: - not having to maintain two versions - less confusion for users - no bugs due to kernel API changes Comment from hch: - Use the same fh_type values as XFS, since we use the same fh encoding.

2008-05-24fuse: fix bdi naming conflictMiklos Szeredi
Fuse allocates a separate bdi for each filesystem, and registers them in sysfs with "MAJOR:MINOR" of sb->s_dev (st_dev). This works fine for anon devices normally used by fuse, but can conflict with an already registered BDI for "fuseblk" filesystems, where sb->s_dev represents a real block device. In particularl this happens if a non-partitioned device is being mounted. Fix by registering with a different name for "fuseblk" filesystems. Thanks to Ioan Ionita for the bug report.

2008-05-13fuse: add flag to turn on big writesMiklos Szeredi
Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests. In theory all fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's nothing in the API to prevent it. Unfortunately there's a known case in NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption. There could also be other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would result in bugs. To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default, but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

2008-04-30fuse: support writable mmapMiklos Szeredi
Quoting Linus (3 years ago, FUSE inclusion discussions): "User-space filesystems are hard to get right. I'd claim that they are almost impossible, unless you limit them somehow (shared writable mappings are the nastiest part - if you don't have those, you can reasonably limit your problems by limiting the number of dirty pages you accept through normal "write()" calls)." Instead of attempting the impossible, I've just waited for the dirty page accounting infrastructure to materialize (thanks to Peter Zijlstra and others). This nicely solved the biggest problem: limiting the number of pages used for write caching. Some small details remained, however, which this largish patch attempts to address. It provides a page writeback implementation for fuse, which is completely safe against VM related deadlocks. Performance may not be very good for certain usage patterns, but generally it should be acceptable. It has been tested extensively with fsx-linux and bash-shared-mapping. Fuse page writeback design -------------------------- fuse_writepage() allocates a new temporary page with GFP_NOFS|__GFP_HIGHMEM. It copies the contents of the original page, and queues a WRITE request to the userspace filesystem using this temp page. The writeback is finished instantly from the MM's point of view: the page is removed from the radix trees, and the PageDirty and PageWriteback flags are cleared. For the duration of the actual write, the NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter is incremented. The per-bdi writeback count is not decremented until the actual write completes. On dirtying the page, fuse waits for a previous write to finish before proceeding. This makes sure, there can only be one temporary page used at a time for one cached page. This approach is wasteful in both memory and CPU bandwidth, so why is this complication needed? The basic problem is that there can be no guarantee about the time in which the userspace filesystem will complete a write. It may be buggy or even malicious, and fail to complete WRITE requests. We don't want unrelated parts of the system to grind to a halt in such cases. Also a filesystem may need additional resources (particularly memory) to complete a WRITE request. There's a great danger of a deadlock if that allocation may wait for the writepage to finish. Currently there are several cases where the kernel can block on page writeback: - allocation order is larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER - page migration - throttle_vm_writeout (through NR_WRITEBACK) - sync(2) Of course in some cases (fsync, msync) we explicitly want to allow blocking. So for these cases new code has to be added to fuse, since the VM is not tracking writeback pages for us any more. As an extra safetly measure, the maximum dirty ratio allocated to a single fuse filesystem is set to 1% by default. This way one (or several) buggy or malicious fuse filesystems cannot slow down the rest of the system by hogging dirty memory. With appropriate privileges, this limit can be raised through '/sys/class/bdi/<bdi>/max_ratio'.

2008-02-06fuse: limit queued background requestsMiklos Szeredi
Libfuse basically creates a new thread for each new request. This is fine for synchronous requests, which are naturally limited. However background requests (especially writepage) can cause a thread creation storm. To avoid this, limit the number of background requests available to userspace. This is done by introducing another queue for background requests, and a counter for the number of "active" requests, which are currently available for userspace.

2007-10-18fuse: add blksize field to fuse_attrMiklos Szeredi
There are cases when the filesystem will be passed the buffer from a single read or write call, namely: 1) in 'direct-io' mode (not O_DIRECT), read/write requests don't go through the page cache, but go directly to the userspace fs 2) currently buffered writes are done with single page requests, but if Nick's ->perform_write() patch goes it, it will be possible to do larger write requests. But only if the original write() was also bigger than a page. In these cases the filesystem might want to give a hint to the app about the optimal I/O size. Allow the userspace filesystem to supply a blksize value to be returned by stat() and friends. If the field is zero, it defaults to the old PAGE_CACHE_SIZE value.

2007-10-18fuse: fix race between getattr and writeMiklos Szeredi
Getattr and lookup operations can be running in parallel to attribute changing operations, such as write and setattr. This means, that if for example getattr was slower than a write, the cached size attribute could be set to a stale value. To prevent this race, introduce a per-filesystem attribute version counter. This counter is incremented whenever cached attributes are modified, and the incremented value stored in the inode. Before storing new attributes in the cache, getattr and lookup check, using the version number, whether the attributes have been modified during the request's lifetime. If so, the returned attributes are not cached, because they might be stale. Thanks to Jakub Bogusz for the bug report and test program.

2007-10-17fuse: fix permission checking on sticky directoriesMiklos Szeredi
The VFS checks sticky bits on the parent directory even if the filesystem defines it's own ->permission(). In some situations (sshfs, mountlo, etc) the user does have permission to delete a file even if the attribute based checking would not allow it. So work around this by storing the permission bits separately and returning them in stat(), but cutting the permission bits off from inode->i_mode. This is slightly hackish, but it's probably not worth it to add new infrastructure in VFS and a slight performance penalty for all filesystems, just for the sake of fuse.

2007-05-21Detach sched.h from mm.hAlexey Dobriyan
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock() mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why. This patch a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly. e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were getting them indirectly Net result is: a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if they don't need sched.h b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files: on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files, after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

2007-05-08add filesystem subtype supportMiklos Szeredi
There's a slight problem with filesystem type representation in fuse based filesystems. From the kernel's view, there are just two filesystem types: fuse and fuseblk. From the user's view there are lots of different filesystem types. The user is not even much concerned if the filesystem is fuse based or not. So there's a conflict of interest in how this should be represented in fstab, mtab and /proc/mounts. The current scheme is to encode the real filesystem type in the mount source. So an sshfs mount looks like this: sshfs#user@server:/ /mnt/server fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,... This url-ish syntax works OK for sshfs and similar filesystems. However for block device based filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs) it doesn't work, since the kernel expects the mount source to be a real device name. A possibly better scheme would be to encode the real type in the type field as "type.subtype". So fuse mounts would look like this: /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows fuseblk.ntfs-3g rw,... user@server:/ /mnt/server fuse.sshfs rw,nosuid,nodev,... This patch adds the necessary code to the kernel so that this can be correctly displayed in /proc/mounts.

2007-05-07slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flagChristoph Lameter
I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by SLAB. I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is performed before each freeing of an object. I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually before the free. That also places the check near the code object manipulation of the object. Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree). There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors. This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for unimplemented flags from SLUB.

2007-05-02remove "struct subsystem" as it is no longer neededGreg Kroah-Hartman
We need to work on cleaning up the relationship between kobjects, ksets and ktypes. The removal of 'struct subsystem' is the first step of this, especially as it is not really needed at all. Thanks to Kay for fixing the bugs in this patch. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2006-12-07[PATCH] fuse: add DESTROY operationMiklos Szeredi
Add a DESTROY operation for block device based filesystems. With the help of this operation, such a filesystem can flush dirty data to the device synchronously before the umount returns. This is needed in situations where the filesystem is assumed to be clean immediately after unmount (e.g. ejecting removable media).
