2008-01-28jbd2: Mark jbd2 slabs as SLAB_TEMPORARYMingming Cao
This patch marks slab allocations by jbd2 as short-lived in support of Mel Gorman's "Group short-lived and reclaimable kernel allocations" patch. (Ported from similar changes made to fs/jbd/journal.c and fs/jbd/revoke.c in Mel's patch.)

2008-01-28ext4: Add the journal checksum featureGirish Shilamkar
The journal checksum feature adds two new flags i.e JBD2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_ASYNC_COMMIT and JBD2_FEATURE_COMPAT_CHECKSUM. JBD2_FEATURE_CHECKSUM flag indicates that the commit block contains the checksum for the blocks described by the descriptor blocks. Due to checksums, writing of the commit record no longer needs to be synchronous. Now commit record can be sent to disk without waiting for descriptor blocks to be written to disk. This behavior is controlled using JBD2_FEATURE_ASYNC_COMMIT flag. Older kernels/e2fsck should not be able to recover the journal with _ASYNC_COMMIT hence it is made incompat. The commit header has been extended to hold the checksum along with the type of the checksum. For recovery in pass scan checksums are verified to ensure the sanity and completeness(in case of _ASYNC_COMMIT) of every transaction.

2008-01-28jbd2: jbd2 stats through procfsJohann Lombardi
The patch below updates the jbd stats patch to 2.6.20/jbd2. The initial patch was posted by Alex Tomas in December 2005 (http://marc.info/?l=linux-ext4&m=113538565128617&w=2). It provides statistics via procfs such as transaction lifetime and size. Sometimes, investigating performance problems, i find useful to have stats from jbd about transaction's lifetime, size, etc. here is a patch for review and inclusion probably. for example, stats after creation of 3M files in htree directory: [root@bob ~]# cat /proc/fs/jbd/sda/history R/C tid wait run lock flush log hndls block inlog ctime write drop close R 261 8260 2720 0 0 750 9892 8170 8187 C 259 750 0 4885 1 R 262 20 2200 10 0 770 9836 8170 8187 R 263 30 2200 10 0 3070 9812 8170 8187 R 264 0 5000 10 0 1340 0 0 0 C 261 8240 3212 4957 0 R 265 8260 1470 0 0 4640 9854 8170 8187 R 266 0 5000 10 0 1460 0 0 0 C 262 8210 2989 4868 0 R 267 8230 1490 10 0 4440 9875 8171 8188 R 268 0 5000 10 0 1260 0 0 0 C 263 7710 2937 4908 0 R 269 7730 1470 10 0 3330 9841 8170 8187 R 270 0 5000 10 0 830 0 0 0 C 265 8140 3234 4898 0 C 267 720 0 4849 1 R 271 8630 2740 20 0 740 9819 8170 8187 C 269 800 0 4214 1 R 272 40 2170 10 0 830 9716 8170 8187 R 273 40 2280 0 0 3530 9799 8170 8187 R 274 0 5000 10 0 990 0 0 0 where, R - line for transaction's life from T_RUNNING to T_FINISHED C - line for transaction's checkpointing tid - transaction's id wait - for how long we were waiting for new transaction to start (the longest period journal_start() took in this transaction) run - real transaction's lifetime (from T_RUNNING to T_LOCKED lock - how long we were waiting for all handles to close (time the transaction was in T_LOCKED) flush - how long it took to flush all data (data=ordered) log - how long it took to write the transaction to the log hndls - how many handles got to the transaction block - how many blocks got to the transaction inlog - how many blocks are written to the log (block + descriptors) ctime - how long it took to checkpoint the transaction write - how many blocks have been written during checkpointing drop - how many blocks have been dropped during checkpointing close - how many running transactions have been closed to checkpoint this one all times are in msec.

Mostly stolen from akpm's JBD cleanup patch. - use `#ifdef foo' instead of `#if defined(foo)' - Make journal_enable_debug __read_mostly just for the heck of it - Make jbd_debugfs_dir and jbd_debug static - debugfs_remove(NULL) is legal: remove unneeded tests - remove unnecessary empty loops Signed-off-by: Jose R.

2007-10-17JBD2: jbd2 slab allocation cleanupsMingming Cao
JBD2: Replace slab allocations with page allocations JBD2 allocate memory for committed_data and frozen_data from slab. However JBD2 should not pass slab pages down to the block layer. Use page allocator pages instead. This will also prepare JBD for the large blocksize patchset. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com>
2007-07-20mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().Paul Mundt
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them either. This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create() completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves, or the documentation references).

2007-07-18jbd2: Move jbd2-debug file to debugfsJose R. Santos
The jbd2-debug file used to be located in /proc/sys/fs/jbd2-debug, but it incorrectly used create_proc_entry() instead of the sysctl routines, and no proc entry was ever created. Instead of fixing this we might as well move the jbd2-debug file to debugfs which would be the preferred location for this kind of tunable. The new location is now /sys/kernel/debug/jbd2/jbd2-debug.

2007-05-08jbd: check for error returned by kthread_create on creating journal threadPavel Emelianov
If the thread failed to create the subsequent wait_event will hang forever. This is likely to happen if kernel hits max_threads limit. Will be critical for virtualization systems that limit the number of tasks and kernel memory usage within the container.
