2009-09-01xfs: merge fsync and O_SYNC handlingChristoph Hellwig
The guarantees for O_SYNC are exactly the same as the ones we need to make for an fsync call (and given that Linux O_SYNC is O_DSYNC the equivalent is fdadatasync, but we treat both the same in XFS), except with a range data writeout. Jan Kara has started unifying these two path for filesystems using the generic helpers, and I've started to look at XFS. The actual transaction commited by xfs_fsync and xfs_write_sync_logforce has a different transaction number, but actually is exactly the same. We'll only use the fsync transaction going forward. One major difference is that xfs_write_sync_logforce never issues a cache flush unless we commit a transaction causing that as a side-effect, which is an obvious bug in the O_SYNC handling. Second all the locking and i_update_size vs i_update_core changes from 978b7237123d007b9fa983af6e0e2fa8f97f9934 never made it to xfs_write_sync_logforce, so we add them back. To make xfs_fsync easily usable from the O_SYNC path, the filemap_fdatawait call is moved up to xfs_file_fsync, so that we don't wait on the whole file after we already waited for our portion in xfs_write. We'll also use a plain call to filemap_write_and_wait_range instead of the previous sync_page_rang which did it in two steps including an half-hearted inode write out that doesn't help us. Once we're done with this also remove the now useless i_update_size tracking.

2009-06-10xfs: use generic Posix ACL codeChristoph Hellwig
This patch rips out the XFS ACL handling code and uses the generic fs/posix_acl.c code instead. The ondisk format is of course left unchanged. This also introduces the same ACL caching all other Linux filesystems do by adding pointers to the acl and default acl in struct xfs_inode.

2008-12-11[XFS] replace b_fspriv with b_mountChristoph Hellwig
Replace the b_fspriv pointer and it's ugly accessors with a properly types xfs_mount pointer. Also switch log reocvery over to it instead of using b_fspriv for the mount pointer.

2008-08-13[XFS] replace the XFS buf iodone semaphore with a completionDavid Chinner
The xfs_buf_t b_iodonesema is really just a semaphore that wants to be a completion. Change it to a completion and remove the last user of the sema_t from XFS.

2008-04-18[XFS] Sanitise xfs_log_force error checking.David Chinner
xfs_log_force() is declared to return an error, but we almost never check it. We don't need to check it in most cases; if there's a log I/O error then we'll be shutting down the filesystem anyway and that means we'll catch the error somewhere else. However, on certain calls we should be returning an error - sync transactions, fsync, sync writes, etc. so this isn't a pure black and white distinction. Hence make xfs_log_force() a void function that issues a warning to the syslog on error, and call _xfs_log_force() in all the places where we actually care about the error status returned.

2007-02-10[XFS] Remove unused header files for MAC and CAP checking functionality.Eric Sandeen
xfs_mac.h and xfs_cap.h provide definitions and macros that aren't used anywhere in XFS at all. They are left-overs from "to be implement at some point in the future" functionality that Irix XFS has. If this functionality ever goes into Linux, it will be provided at a different layer, most likely through the security hooks in the kernel so we will never need this functionality in XFS.

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!
