2008-05-23[XFS] Fix memory corruption with small buffer readsChristoph Hellwig
When we have multiple buffers in a single page for a blocksize == pagesize filesystem we might overwrite the page contents if two callers hit it shortly after each other. To prevent that we need to keep the page locked until I/O is completed and the page marked uptodate. Thanks to Eric Sandeen for triaging this bug and finding a reproducible testcase and Dave Chinner for additional advice. This should fix kernel.org bz #10421.

2008-05-23[XFS] Fix fsync() b0rkage.David Chinner
xfs_fsync() fails to wait for data I/O completion before checking if the inode is dirty or clean to decide whether to log the inode or not. This misses inode size updates when the data flushed by the fsync() is extending the file. Hence, like fdatasync(), we need to wait for I/o completion first, then check the inode for cleanliness. Doing so makes the behaviour of xfs_fsync() identical for fsync and fdatasync and we *always* use synchronous semantics if the inode is dirty. Therefore also kill the differences and remove the unused flags from the xfs_fsync function and callers.

2008-04-29[XFS] remove manual lookup from xfs_rename and simplify lockingChristoph Hellwig
->rename already gets the target inode passed if it exits. Pass it down to xfs_rename so that we can avoid looking it up again. Also simplify locking as the first lock section in xfs_rename can go away now: the isdir is an invariant over the lifetime of the inode, and new_parent and the nlink check are namespace topology protected by i_mutex in the VFS. The projid check needs to move into the second lock section anyway to not be racy. Also kill the now unused xfs_dir_lookup_int and remove the now-unused first_locked argumet to xfs_lock_inodes.

2008-04-18[XFS] Don't block pdflush when writing back inodesDavid Chinner
When pdflush is writing back inodes, it can get stuck on inode cluster buffers that are currently under I/O. This occurs when we write data to multiple inodes in the same inode cluster at the same time. Effectively, delayed allocation marks the inode dirty during the data writeback. Hence if the inode cluster was flushed during the writeback of the first inode, the writeback of the second inode will block waiting for the inode cluster write to complete before writing it again for the newly dirtied inode. Basically, we want to avoid this from happening so we don't block pdflush and slow down all of writeback. Hence we introduce a non-blocking async inode flush flag that pdflush uses. If this flag is set, we use non-blocking operations (e.g. try locks) whereever we can to avoid blocking or extra I/O being issued.

2008-02-28[XFS] If you mount an XFS filesystem with no mount options at all, thenJosef Jeff Sipek
the "ikeep" option is set rather than "noikeep". This regression was introduced in 970451. With no mount options specified, xfs_parseargs() does the following: int ikeep = 0; args->flags |= XFSMNT_BARRIER; args->flags2 |= XFSMNT2_COMPAT_IOSIZE; if (!options) goto done; It only sets the above two options by default and before, it also used to set XFSMNT_IDELETE by default. If options are specified, then if (!(args->flags & XFSMNT_DMAPI) && !ikeep) args->flags |= XFSMNT_IDELETE; is executed later on which is skipped by the "goto done;" above. The solution is to invert the logic.
