2009-06-11nilfs2: get rid of bd_mount_sem use from nilfsRyusuke Konishi
This will remove every bd_mount_sem use in nilfs. The intended exclusion control was replaced by the previous patch ("nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount function") for nilfs_remount(), and this patch will replace remains with a new mutex that this inserts in nilfs object.

2009-06-11nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount functionRyusuke Konishi
nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance. Even though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or remount, the mount state was not properly protected in nilfs_remount(). Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem; nilfs_get_sb() holds: 1. bdev->bd_mount_sem 2. sb->s_umount (sget acquires) and nilfs_remount() holds: 1. sb->s_umount (locked by the caller in vfs) 2. bdev->bd_mount_sem To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount state protection in nilfs_remount(). With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and the lock order reversal will be resolved. And the new rw-semaphore, nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the modification from nilfs_error function.

2009-06-11nilfs2: simplify remaining sget() useRyusuke Konishi
This simplifies the test function passed on the remaining sget() callsite in nilfs. Instead of checking mount type (i.e. ro-mount/rw-mount/snapshot mount) in the test function passed to sget(), this patch first looks up the nilfs_sb_info struct which the given mount type matches, and then acquires the super block instance holding the nilfs_sb_info.

2009-06-11nilfs2: get rid of sget use for checking if current mount is presentRyusuke Konishi
This stops using sget() for checking if an r/w-mount or an r/o-mount exists on the device. This elimination uses a back pointer to the current mount added to nilfs object.

2009-06-11nilfs2: get rid of sget use for acquiring nilfs objectRyusuke Konishi
This will change the way to obtain nilfs object in nilfs_get_sb() function. Previously, a preliminary sget() call was performed, and the nilfs object was acquired from a super block instance found by the sget() call. This patch, instead, instroduces a new dedicated function find_or_create_nilfs(); as the name implies, the function finds an existent nilfs object from a global list or creates a new one if no object is found on the device.

The following EBUSY case in nilfs_get_sb() is meaningless. Indeed, this error code is never returned to the caller. if (!s->s_root) { ... } else if (!(s->s_flags & MS_RDONLY)) { err = -EBUSY; } This simply removes the else case.

2009-06-11push BKL down into ->put_superChristoph Hellwig
Move BKL into ->put_super from the only caller. A couple of filesystems had trivial enough ->put_super (only kfree and NULLing of s_fs_info + stuff in there) to not get any locking: coda, cramfs, efs, hugetlbfs, omfs, qnx4, shmem, all others got the full treatment. Most of them probably don't need it, but I'd rather sort that out individually. Preferably after all the other BKL pushdowns in that area. [AV: original used to move lock_super() down as well; these changes are removed since we don't do lock_super() at all in generic_shutdown_super() now] [AV: fuse, btrfs and xfs are known to need no damn BKL, exempt] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2009-06-11remove ->write_super call in generic_shutdown_superChristoph Hellwig
We just did a full fs writeout using sync_filesystem before, and if that's not enough for the filesystem it can perform it's own writeout in ->put_super, which many filesystems already do. Move a call to foofs_write_super into every foofs_put_super for now to guarantee identical behaviour until it's cleaned up by the individual filesystem maintainers. Exceptions: - affs already has identical copy & pasted code at the beginning of affs_put_super so no need to do it twice. - xfs does the right thing without it and I have changes pending for the xfs tree touching this are so I don't really need conflicts here..

2009-06-10nilfs2: support contiguous lookup of blocksRyusuke Konishi
Although get_block() callback function can return extent of contiguous blocks with bh->b_size, nilfs_get_block() function did not support this feature. This adds contiguous lookup feature to the block mapping codes of nilfs, and allows the nilfs_get_blocks() function to return the extent information by applying the feature.

2009-06-10nilfs2: add sync_page method to page caches of meta dataRyusuke Konishi
This applies block_sync_page() function to the sync_page method of page caches for meta data files, gc page caches, and btree node buffers. This is a companion patch of ("nilfs2: enable sync_page mothod") which applied the function for data pages. This allows lock_page() for those meta data to unplug pending bio requests.

2009-06-10nilfs2: use device's backing_dev_info for btree node cachesRyusuke Konishi

2009-06-10nilfs2: return EBUSY against delete request on snapshotRyusuke Konishi
This helps userland programs like the rmcp command to distinguish error codes returned against a checkpoint removal request. Previously -EPERM was returned, and not discriminable from real permission errors. This also allows removal of the latest checkpoint because the deletion leads to create a new checkpoint, and thus it's harmless for the filesystem.

2009-06-10nilfs2: allow future expansion of metadata read out via get info ioctlRyusuke Konishi
Nilfs has some ioctl commands to read out metadata from meta data files: - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_CPINFO for checkpoint file, - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_SUINFO for segment usage file, and - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_VINFO for Disk Address Transalation (DAT) file, respectively. Every routine on these metadata files is implemented so that it allows future expansion of on-disk format. But, the above ioctl commands do not support expansion even though nilfs_argv structure can handle arbitrary size for data exchanged via ioctl. This allows future expansion of the following structures which give basic format of the "get information" ioctls: - struct nilfs_cpinfo - struct nilfs_suinfo - struct nilfs_vinfo So, this introduces forward compatility of such ioctl commands. In this patch, a sanity check in nilfs_ioctl_get_info() function is changed to accept larger data structure [1], and metadata read routines are rewritten so that they become compatible for larger structures; the routines will just ignore the remaining fields which the current version of nilfs doesn't know. [1] The ioctl function already has another upper limit (PAGE_SIZE against a structure, which appears in nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy function), and this will not cause security problem.

2009-06-10NILFS2: Pagecache usage optimization on NILFS2Hisashi Hifumi
Hi, I introduced "is_partially_uptodate" aops for NILFS2. A page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate on pagesize != blocksize environment. This aops checks that all buffers which correspond to a part of a file that we want to read are uptodate. If so, we do not have to issue actual read IO to HDD even if a page is not uptodate because the portion we want to read are uptodate. "block_is_partially_uptodate" function is already used by ext2/3/4. With the following patch random read/write mixed workloads or random read after random write workloads can be optimized and we can get performance improvement. I did a performance test using the sysbench. 1 --file-block-size=8K --file-total-size=2G --file-test-mode=rndrw --file-fsync-freq=0 --fil e-rw-ratio=1 run -2.6.30-rc5 Test execution summary: total time: 151.2907s total number of events: 200000 total time taken by event execution: 2409.8387 per-request statistics: min: 0.0000s avg: 0.0120s max: 0.9306s approx. 95 percentile: 0.0439s Threads fairness: events (avg/stddev): 12500.0000/238.52 execution time (avg/stddev): 150.6149/0.01 -2.6.30-rc5-patched Test execution summary: total time: 140.8828s total number of events: 200000 total time taken by event execution: 2240.8577 per-request statistics: min: 0.0000s avg: 0.0112s max: 0.8750s approx. 95 percentile: 0.0418s Threads fairness: events (avg/stddev): 12500.0000/218.43 execution time (avg/stddev): 140.0536/0.01 arch: ia64 pagesize: 16k Thanks.

2009-06-10nilfs2: remove bmap pointer operationsRyusuke Konishi
Previously, the bmap codes of nilfs used three types of function tables. The abuse of indirect function calls decreased source readability and suffered many indirect jumps which would confuse branch prediction of processors. This eliminates one type of the function tables, nilfs_bmap_ptr_operations, which was used to dispatch low level pointer operations of the nilfs bmap. This adds a new integer variable "b_ptr_type" to nilfs_bmap struct, and uses the value to select the pointer operations. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

This will cut off 16 bytes from the nilfs_bmap struct which is embedded in the on-memory inode of nilfs. The b_high field was never used, and the b_low field stores a constant value which can be determined by whether the inode uses btree for block mapping or not.

Although some ioctls of nilfs2 exchange data in the form of indirectly referenced array, some of them lack size check on the array elements. This inserts the missing checks and rejects requests if data of ioctl does not have a valid format. We usually don't have to check size of structures that we associated with ioctl commands because the size is tested implicitly for identifying ioctl command; the checks this patch adds are for the cases where the implicit check is not applied.

The problem was detected by lockdep check as follows: ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.30-rc3-nilfs-00002-g3552613 #6 ------------------------------------------------------- mmap/5418 is trying to acquire lock: (&nilfs->ns_segctor_sem){++++.+}, at: [<d0d0e852>] nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] but task is already holding lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<c043700a>] do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x30a which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}: [<c01470a5>] __lock_acquire+0x1066/0x13b0 [<c01474a9>] lock_acquire+0xba/0xdd [<c01836bc>] might_fault+0x68/0x88 [<c023c730>] copy_to_user+0x2c/0xfc [<d0d11b4f>] nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy+0x103/0x160 [nilfs2] [<d0d11fa9>] nilfs_ioctl+0x30a/0x3b0 [nilfs2] [<c01a3be7>] vfs_ioctl+0x22/0x69 [<c01a408e>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x460/0x499 [<c01a4107>] sys_ioctl+0x40/0x5a [<c01031a4>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x38 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff -> #0 (&nilfs->ns_segctor_sem){++++.+}: [<c0146e0b>] __lock_acquire+0xdcc/0x13b0 [<c01474a9>] lock_acquire+0xba/0xdd [<c0433f1d>] down_read+0x2a/0x3e [<d0d0e852>] nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<d0cfe0e5>] nilfs_page_mkwrite+0xe7/0x154 [nilfs2] [<c0183b0b>] __do_fault+0x165/0x376 [<c01855cd>] handle_mm_fault+0x287/0x5d1 [<c043712d>] do_page_fault+0x2fb/0x30a [<c0435462>] error_code+0x72/0x78 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff other info that might help us debug this: 1 lock held by mmap/5418: #0: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<c043700a>] do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x30a stack backtrace: Pid: 5418, comm: mmap Not tainted 2.6.30-rc3-nilfs-00002-g3552613 #6 Call Trace: [<c0432145>] ? printk+0xf/0x12 [<c0145c48>] print_circular_bug_tail+0xaa/0xb5 [<c0146e0b>] __lock_acquire+0xdcc/0x13b0 [<d0d10149>] ? nilfs_sufile_get_stat+0x1e/0x105 [nilfs2] [<c013b59a>] ? up_read+0x16/0x2c [<d0d10225>] ? nilfs_sufile_get_stat+0xfa/0x105 [nilfs2] [<c01474a9>] lock_acquire+0xba/0xdd [<d0d0e852>] ? nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<c0433f1d>] down_read+0x2a/0x3e [<d0d0e852>] ? nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<d0d0e852>] nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<d0cfe0e5>] nilfs_page_mkwrite+0xe7/0x154 [nilfs2] [<c0183b0b>] __do_fault+0x165/0x376 [<c01855cd>] handle_mm_fault+0x287/0x5d1 [<c043700a>] ? do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x30a [<c013b54f>] ? down_read_trylock+0x39/0x43 [<c043712d>] do_page_fault+0x2fb/0x30a [<c0436e32>] ? do_page_fault+0x0/0x30a [<c0435462>] error_code+0x72/0x78 [<c0436e32>] ? do_page_fault+0x0/0x30a This makes the lock granularity of nilfs->ns_segctor_sem finer than that of the mmap semaphore for ioctl commands except nilfs_clean_segments(). The successive patch ("nilfs2: fix lock order reversal in nilfs_clean_segments ioctl") is required to fully resolve the problem. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-05-10nilfs2: ensure to clear dirty state when deleting metadata file blockRyusuke Konishi
This would fix the following failure during GC: nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints: cannot delete block NILFS: GC failed during preparation: cannot delete checkpoints: err=-2 The problem was caused by a break in state consistency between page cache and btree; the above block was removed from the btree but the page buffering the block was remaining in the page cache in dirty state. This resolves the inconsistency by ensuring to clear dirty state of the page buffering the deleted block.

2009-05-09nilfs2: fix circular locking dependency of writer mutexRyusuke Konishi
This fixes the following circular locking dependency problem: ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.30-rc3 #5 ------------------------------------------------------- segctord/3895 is trying to acquire lock: (&nilfs->ns_writer_mutex){+.+...}, at: [<d0d02172>] nilfs_mdt_get_block+0x89/0x20f [nilfs2] but task is already holding lock: (&bmap->b_sem){++++..}, at: [<d0d02d99>] nilfs_bmap_propagate+0x14/0x2e [nilfs2] which lock already depends on the new lock. The bugfix is done by replacing call sites of nilfs_get_writer() which are never called from read-only context with direct dereferencing of pointer to a writable FS-instance.

2009-05-09nilfs2: fix possible recovery failure due to block creation without writerRyusuke Konishi
Some function calls in nilfs_prepare_segment_for_recovery() may fail because they can create blocks on meta data files without configuring a writable FS-instance. Concretely, nilfs_mdt_create_block() routine of meta data files will fail in that case. This fixes the problem by temporarily attaching a writable FS-instace during the function is called.

2009-04-13nilfs2: fix possible mismatch of sufile counters on recoveryRyusuke Konishi
On-disk counters ndirtysegs and ncleansegs of sufile, can go wrong after roll-forward recovery because nilfs_prepare_segment_for_recovery() function marks segments dirty without adjusting value of these counters. This fixes the problem by adding a function to sufile which does the operation adjusting the counters, and by letting the recovery function use it.

2009-04-13nilfs2: segment usage file cleanupsRyusuke Konishi
This will simplify sufile.c by sharing common code which repeatedly appears in routines updating a segment usage entry; a wrapper function nilfs_sufile_update() is introduced for the purpose, and counter modifications are integrated to a new function nilfs_sufile_mod_counter(). This is a preparation for the successive bugfix patch ("nilfs2: fix possible mismatch of sufile counters on recovery"). Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-04-13nilfs2: fix wrong accounting and duplicate brelse in nilfs_sufile_set_errorRyusuke Konishi
The nilfs_sufile_set_error() function wrongly adjusts the number of dirty segments instead of the number of clean segments. In addition, the function calls brelse() twice for the same buffer head. This fixes these bugs. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-04-13nilfs2: simplify handling of active state of segments fixRyusuke Konishi
This fixes a bug of ("nilfs2: simplify handling of active state of segments") patch. The patch did not take account that a base index is increased in nilfs_sufile_get_suinfo() function if requested entries go across block boundary on sufile. Due to this bug, the active flag sometimes appears on wrong segments and has induced malfunction of garbage collection. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-04-13nilfs2: remove module versionRyusuke Konishi
A MODULE_VERSION() macro has been used in out-of-tree nilfs modules, but it's needless and not updated in tree. So, this removes it along with the version declaration. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-04-13nilfs2: fix lockdep recursive locking warning on meta data filesRyusuke Konishi
This fixes the following false detection of lockdep against nilfs meta data files: ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 2.6.29 #26 --------------------------------------------- mount.nilfs2/4185 is trying to acquire lock: (&mi->mi_sem){----}, at: [<d0c7925b>] nilfs_sufile_get_stat+0x1e/0x105 [nilfs2] but task is already holding lock: (&mi->mi_sem){----}, at: [<d0c72026>] nilfs_count_free_blocks+0x48/0x84 [nilfs2] Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-04-13nilfs2: fix lockdep recursive locking warning on bmapRyusuke Konishi
The bmap semaphore of DAT file can be held while a bmap of other files is locked. This has caused the following false detection of lockdep check: mount.nilfs2/4667 is trying to acquire lock: (&bmap->b_sem){..--}, at: [<d0c6c4b4>] nilfs_bmap_lookup_at_level+0x1a/0x74 [nilfs2] but task is already holding lock: (&bmap->b_sem){..--}, at: [<d0c6c4b4>] nilfs_bmap_lookup_at_level+0x1a/0x74 [nilfs2] This will fix the false detection by distinguishing semaphores of the DAT and other files.
