2009-01-19xfs: fix bad_features2 fixups for the root filesystemChristoph Hellwig
Currently the bad_features2 fixup and the alignment updates in the superblock are skipped if we mount a filesystem read-only. But for the root filesystem the typical case is to mount read-only first and only later remount writeable so we'll never perform this update at all. It's not a big problem but means the logs of people needing the fixup get spammed at every boot because they never happen on disk.

2009-01-19xfs: fix dentry aliasing issues in open_by_handleChristoph Hellwig
Open by handle just grabs an inode by handle and then creates itself a dentry for it. While this works for regular files it is horribly broken for directories, where the VFS locking relies on the fact that there is only just one single dentry for a given inode, and that these are always connected to the root of the filesystem so that it's locking algorithms work (see Documentations/filesystems/Locking) Remove all the existing open by handle code and replace it with a small wrapper around the exportfs code which deals with all these issues. At the same time we also make the checks for a valid handle strict enough to reject all not perfectly well formed handles - given that we never hand out others that's okay and simplifies the code.

2009-01-09filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfsTakashi Sato
Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which suspends write requests. So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and replication) while it is mounted. In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g. VxFS) has the freeze feature and it would be used to get the consistent backup. If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it without a commercial filesystem. So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature. I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps. 1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl. 2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot with the storage device's feature. 3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl. 4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume or the snapshot. This patch: VFS: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that they can return an error. Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion. ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed, and unlockfs always returns 0. reiserfs: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.

2009-01-09[XFS] remove old vmap cacheNick Piggin
XFS's vmap batching simply defers a number (up to 64) of vunmaps, and keeps track of them in a list. To purge the batch, it just goes through the list and calls vunamp on each one. This is pretty poor: a global TLB flush is generally still performed on each vunmap, with the most expensive parts of the operation being the broadcast IPIs and locking involved in the SMP callouts, and the locking involved in the vmap management -- none of these are avoided by just batching up the calls. I'm actually surprised it ever made much difference. (Now that the lazy vmap allocator is upstream, this description is not quite right, but the vunmap batching still doesn't seem to do much) Rip all this logic out of XFS completely. I will improve vmap performance and scalability directly in subsequent patch.

NFS clients or users of the handle ioctls can pass us arbitrary inode numbers through the exportfs interface. Make sure we use the XFS_IGET_BULKSTAT so that these don't cause shutdowns due to the corruption checks. Also translate the EINVAL we get back for invalid inode clusters into an ESTALE which is more appropinquate, and remove the useless check for a NULL inode on a successfull xfs_iget return.

2008-12-24[XFS] Fix race in xfs_write() between direct and buffered I/O with DMAPILachlan McIlroy
The iolock is dropped and re-acquired around the call to XFS_SEND_NAMESP(). While the iolock is released the file can become cached. We then 'goto retry' and - if we are doing direct I/O - mapping->nrpages may now be non zero but need_i_mutex will be zero and we will hit the WARN_ON(). Since we have dropped the I/O lock then the file size may have also changed so what we need to do here is 'goto start' like we do for the XFS_SEND_DATA() DMAPI event. We also need to update the filesize before releasing the iolock so that needs to be done before the XFS_SEND_NAMESP event. If we drop the iolock before setting the filesize we could race with a truncate. Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Lachlan McIlroy <lachlan@sgi.com>

Hit this assert because an inode was tagged with XFS_ICI_RECLAIM_TAG but not XFS_IRECLAIMABLE|XFS_IRECLAIM. This is because xfs_iget_cache_hit() first clears XFS_IRECLAIMABLE and then calls __xfs_inode_clear_reclaim_tag() while only holding the pag_ici_lock in read mode so we can race with xfs_reclaim_inodes_ag().
