2007-01-30[PATCH] ufs: reallocation fixEvgeniy Dushistov
In blocks reallocation function sometimes does not update some of buffer_head::b_blocknr, which may and cause data damage. Signed-off-by: Evgeniy Dushistov <dushistov@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-01-30[PATCH] ufs: alloc metadata null page fixEvgeniy Dushistov
These series of patches result of UFS1 write support stress testing, like running fsx-linux, untar and build linux kernel etc We pass from ufs::get_block_t to levels below: pointer to the current page, to make possible things like reallocation of blocks on the fly, and we also uses this pointer for indication, what actually we allocate data block or meta data block, but currently we make decision about what we allocate on the wrong level, this may and cause oops if we allocate blocks in some special order.

2007-01-05[PATCH] fix garbage instead of zeroes in UFSEvgeniy Dushistov
Looks like this is the problem, which point Al Viro some time ago: ufs's get_block callback allocates 16k of disk at a time, and links that entire 16k into the file's metadata. But because get_block is called for only a single buffer_head (a 2k buffer_head in this case?) we are only able to tell the VFS that this 2k is buffer_new(). So when ufs_getfrag_block() is later called to map some more data in the file, and when that data resides within the remaining 14k of this fragment, ufs_getfrag_block() will incorrectly return a !buffer_new() buffer_head. I don't see _right_ way to do nullification of whole block, if use inode page cache, some pages may be outside of inode limits (inode size), and will be lost; if use blockdev page cache it is possible to zero real data, if later inode page cache will be used. The simpliest way, as can I see usage of block device page cache, but not only mark dirty, but also sync it during "nullification". I use my simple tests collection, which I used for check that create,open,write,read,close works on ufs, and I see that this patch makes ufs code 18% slower then before.

2006-08-06[PATCH] ufs: handle truncated pagesEvgeniy Dushistov
ufs_get_locked_page is called twice in ufs code, one time in ufs_truncate path(we allocated last block), and another time when fragments are reallocated. In ideal world in the second case on allocation/free block layer we should not know that things like `truncate' exists, but now with such crutch like ufs_get_locked_page we can (or should?) skip truncated pages.

2006-07-01[PATCH] ufs: truncate should allocate block for last byteEvgeniy Dushistov
This patch fixes buggy behaviour of UFS in such kind of scenario: open(, O_TRUNC...) ftruncate(, 1024) ftruncate(, 0) Such a scenario causes ufs_panic and remount read-only. This happen because of according to specification UFS should always allocate block for last byte, and many parts of our implementation rely on this, but `ufs_truncate' doesn't care about this. To make possible return error code and to know about old size, this patch removes `truncate' from ufs inode_operations and uses `setattr' method to call ufs_truncate.

2006-06-25[PATCH] ufs: ubh_ll_rw_block cleanupEvgeniy Dushistov
In ufs code there is function: ubh_ll_rw_block, it has parameter how many ufs_buffer_head it should handle, but it always called with "1" on the place of this parameter. This patch removes unused parameter of "ubh_ll_wr_block".

2006-06-25[PATCH] ufs: make fsck -f happyEvgeniy Dushistov
ufs super block contains some statistic about file systems, like amount of directories, free blocks, inodes and so on. UFS1 hold this information in one location and uses 32bit integers for such information, UFS2 hold statistic in another location and uses 64bit integers. There is transition variant, if UFS1 has type 44BSD and flags field in super block has some special value this mean that we work with statistic like UFS2 does. and this also means that nobody care about old(UFS1) statistic. So if start fsck against such file system, after usage linux ufs driver, it found error: at now only UFS1 like statistic is updated. This patch should fix this. Also it contains some minor cleanup: CodingSytle and remove unused variables.

2006-06-25[PATCH] ufs: missed brelse and wrong baseblkEvgeniy Dushistov
This patch fixes two bugs, which introduced by previous patches: 1) Missed "brelse" 2) Sometimes "baseblk" may be wrongly calculated, if i_size is equal to zero, which lead infinite cycle in "mpage_writepages".

2006-06-25[PATCH] ufs: easy debugEvgeniy Dushistov
Currently to turn on debug mode "user" has to edit ~10 files, to turn off he has to do it again. This patch introduce such changes: 1)turn on(off) debug messages via ".config" 2)remove unnecessary duplication of code 3)make "UFSD" macros more similar to function 4)fix some compiler warnings Signed-off-by: Evgeniy Dushistov <dushistov@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-06-25[PATCH] ufs: not usual amounts of fragments per blockEvgeniy Dushistov
The writing to UFS file system with block/fragment!=8 may cause bogus behaviour. The problem in "ufs_bitmap_search" function, which doesn't work correctly in "block/fragment!=8" case.

2006-06-25[PATCH] ufs: wrong type castEvgeniy Dushistov
There are two ugly macros in ufs code: #define UCPI_UBH ((struct ufs_buffer_head *)ucpi) #define USPI_UBH ((struct ufs_buffer_head *)uspi) when uspi looks like struct { struct ufs_buffer_head ; } and USPI_UBH has some sence, ucpi looks like struct { struct not_ufs_buffer_head; } To prevent bugs in future, this patch convert macros to inline function and fix "ucpi" structure.

2006-06-25[PATCH] ufs: change block number on the flyEvgeniy Dushistov
First of all some necessary notes about UFS by it self: To avoid waste of disk space the tail of file consists not from blocks (which is ordinary big enough, 16K usually), it consists from fragments(which is ordinary 2K). When file is growing its tail occupy 1 fragment, 2 fragments... At some stage decision to allocate whole block is made and all fragments are moved to one block. How this situation was handled before: ufs_prepare_write ->block_prepare_write ->ufs_getfrag_block ->... ->ufs_new_fragments: bh = sb_bread bh->b_blocknr = result + i; mark_buffer_dirty (bh); This is wrong solution, because: - it didn't take into consideration that there is another cache: "inode page cache" - because of sb_getblk uses not b_blocknr, (it uses page->index) to find certain block, this breaks sb_getblk. How this situation is handled now: we go though all "page inode cache", if there are no such page in cache we load it into cache, and change b_blocknr.

2006-06-25[PATCH] ufs: right block allocationEvgeniy Dushistov

2006-01-14[PATCH] ufs cleanupEvgeniy
Here is update of ufs cleanup patch, brought on by the recently fixed ubh_get_usb_second() bug that made some ugly code rather painfully obvious. It also includes - fix compilation warnings which appears if debug mode turn on - remove unnecessary duplication of code to support UFS2 I tested it on ufs1 and ufs2 file-systems.

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!
