2009-09-04ocfs2: Take the inode out of the metadata read/write paths.Joel Becker
We are really passing the inode into the ocfs2_read/write_blocks() functions to get at the metadata cache. This commit passes the cache directly into the metadata block functions, divorcing them from the inode. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
2009-01-05ocfs2: Use BH_JBDPrivateStart instead of BH_UnshadowMark Fasheh
This is safer. We no longer have to worry about tracking changes to jbd_state_bits. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2009-01-05ocfs2: Validate metadata only when it's read from disk.Joel Becker
Add an optional validation hook to ocfs2_read_blocks(). Now the validation function is only called when a block was actually read off of disk. It is not called when the buffer was in cache. We add a buffer state bit BH_NeedsValidate to flag these buffers. It must always be one higher than the last JBD2 buffer state bit. The dinode, dirblock, extent_block, and xattr_block validators are lifted to this scheme directly. The group_descriptor validator needs to be split into two pieces. The first part only needs the gd buffer and is passed to ocfs2_read_block(). The second part requires the dinode as well, and is called every time. It's only 3 compares, so it's tiny. This also allows us to clean up the non-fatal gd check used by resize.c. It now has no magic argument.

2008-12-01ocfs2: fix regression in ocfs2_read_blocks_sync()Mark Fasheh
We're panicing in ocfs2_read_blocks_sync() if a jbd-managed buffer is seen. At first glance, this seems ok but in reality it can happen. My test case was to just run 'exorcist'. A struct inode is being pushed out of memory but is then re-read at a later time, before the buffer has been checkpointed by jbd. This causes a BUG to be hit in ocfs2_read_blocks_sync().

2008-10-14ocfs2: Make cached block reads the common case.Joel Becker
ocfs2_read_blocks() currently requires the CACHED flag for cached I/O. However, that's the common case. Let's flip it around and provide an IGNORE_CACHE flag for the special users. This has the added benefit of cleaning up the code some (ignore_cache takes on its special meaning earlier in the loop).

2008-10-14ocfs2: Require an inode for ocfs2_read_block(s)().Joel Becker
Now that synchronous readers are using ocfs2_read_blocks_sync(), all callers of ocfs2_read_blocks() are passing an inode. Use it unconditionally. Since it's there, we don't need to pass the ocfs2_super either. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2008-10-14ocfs2: Separate out sync reads from ocfs2_read_blocks()Joel Becker
The ocfs2_read_blocks() function currently handles sync reads, cached, reads, and sometimes cached reads. We're going to add some functionality to it, so first we should simplify it. The uncached, synchronous reads are much easer to handle as a separate function, so we instroduce ocfs2_read_blocks_sync().

2008-01-25ocfs2: clean up bh null checksMark Fasheh
If we know a buffer_head is non-null, then brelse() is unnecessary and put_bh() can be used instead. Also, an explicit check for NULL is unnecessary when using brelse(). This patch only covers buffer_head_io.c and resize.c, which have recently added code which exhibits this problem. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2008-01-25[PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: Add group extend for online resizeTao Ma
This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request an extend of last cluster group on an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via ioctl, OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND. This is derived from EXT3_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND, but is obviously Ocfs2 specific. tunefs.ocfs2 would call this for an online-resize operation if the last cluster group isn't full.

2006-09-20ocfs2: implement directory read-aheadMark Fasheh
Uptodate.c now knows about read-ahead buffers. Use some more aggressive logic in ocfs2_readdir(). The two functions which currently use directory read-ahead are ocfs2_find_entry() and ocfs2_readdir(). Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
