2008-10-06ext4: Avoid double dirtying of super block in ext4_put_super()Andi Kleen

2008-10-03generic block based fiemap implementationJosef Bacik
Any block based fs (this patch includes ext3) just has to declare its own fiemap() function and then call this generic function with its own get_block_t. This works well for block based filesystems that will map multiple contiguous blocks at one time, but will work for filesystems that only map one block at a time, you will just end up with an "extent" for each block. One gotcha is this will not play nicely where there is hole+data after the EOF. This function will assume its hit the end of the data as soon as it hits a hole after the EOF, so if there is any data past that it will not pick that up. AFAIK no block based fs does this anyway, but its in the comments of the function anyway just in case.

2008-10-03ocfs2: fiemap supportMark Fasheh
Plug ocfs2 into ->fiemap. Some portions of ocfs2_get_clusters() had to be refactored so that the extent cache can be skipped in favor of going directly to the on-disk records. This makes it easier for us to determine which extent is the last one in the btree. Also, I'm not sure we want to be caching fiemap lookups anyway as they're not directly related to data read/write.

2008-10-08vfs: vfs-level fiemap interfaceMark Fasheh
Basic vfs-level fiemap infrastructure, which sets up a new ->fiemap inode operation. Userspace can get extent information on a file via fiemap ioctl. As input, the fiemap ioctl takes a struct fiemap which includes an array of struct fiemap_extent (fm_extents). Size of the extent array is passed as fm_extent_count and number of extents returned will be written into fm_mapped_extents. Offset and length fields on the fiemap structure (fm_start, fm_length) describe a logical range which will be searched for extents. All extents returned will at least partially contain this range. The actual extent offsets and ranges returned will be unmodified from their offset and range on-disk. The fiemap ioctl returns '0' on success. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set. If errno is equal to EBADR, then fm_flags will contain those flags which were passed in which the kernel did not understand. On all other errors, the contents of fm_extents is undefined. As fiemap evolved, there have been many authors of the vfs patch.

2008-10-08jbd2: abort instead of waiting for nonexistent transactionDuane Griffin
The __jbd2_log_wait_for_space function sits in a loop checkpointing transactions until there is sufficient space free in the journal. However, if there are no transactions to be processed (e.g. because the free space calculation is wrong due to a corrupted filesystem) it will never progress. Check for space being required when no transactions are outstanding and abort the journal instead of endlessly looping.

2008-10-10ext4: fix initialization of UNINIT bitmap blocksFrederic Bohe
This fixes a bug which caused on-line resizing of filesystems with a 1k blocksize to fail. The root cause of this bug was the fact that if an uninitalized bitmap block gets read in by userspace (which e2fsprogs does try to avoid, but can happen when the blocksize is less than the pagesize and an adjacent blocks is read into memory) ext4_read_block_bitmap() was erroneously depending on the buffer uptodate flag to decide whether it needed to initialize the bitmap block in memory --- i.e., to set the standard set of blocks in use by a block group (superblock, bitmaps, inode table, etc.). Essentially, ext4_read_block_bitmap() assumed it was the only routine that might try to read a block containing a block bitmap, which is simply not true. To fix this, ext4_read_block_bitmap() and ext4_read_inode_bitmap() must always initialize uninitialized bitmap blocks. Once a block or inode is allocated out of that bitmap, it will be marked as initialized in the block group descriptor, so in general this won't result any extra unnecessary work.

So request readahead for adjacent inode table blocks to reduce the time it takes when iterating over directories (especially when doing this in htree sort order) in a cold cache case. With this patch, the time it takes to run "git status" on a kernel tree after flushing the caches via "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" is reduced by 21%.

However do_truncate is what caused the lock ordering error, due to it taking i_mutex. In this case, we can actually just call ramfs directly to allocate memory for the mapping, rather than go via truncate.

2008-09-29mm owner: fix race between swapoff and exitBalbir Singh
There's a race between mm->owner assignment and swapoff, more easily seen when task slab poisoning is turned on. The condition occurs when try_to_unuse() runs in parallel with an exiting task. A similar race can occur with callers of get_task_mm(), such as /proc/<pid>/<mmstats> or ptrace or page migration. CPU0 CPU1 try_to_unuse looks at mm = task0->mm increments mm->mm_users task 0 exits mm->owner needs to be updated, but no new owner is found (mm_users > 1, but no other task has task->mm = task0->mm) mm_update_next_owner() leaves mmput(mm) decrements mm->mm_users task0 freed dereferencing mm->owner fails The fix is to notify the subsystem via mm_owner_changed callback(), if no new owner is found, by specifying the new task as NULL. Jiri Slaby: mm->owner was set to NULL prior to calling cgroup_mm_owner_callbacks(), but must be set after that, so as not to pass NULL as old owner causing oops. Daisuke Nishimura: mm_update_next_owner() may set mm->owner to NULL, but mem_cgroup_from_task() and its callers need to take account of this situation to avoid oops. Hugh Dickins: Lockdep warning and hang below exec_mmap() when testing these patches. exit_mm() up_reads mmap_sem before calling mm_update_next_owner(), so exec_mmap() now needs to do the same. And with that repositioning, there's now no point in mm_need_new_owner() allowing for NULL mm.

2008-09-29Fix NULL pointer dereference in proc_sys_compareLinus Torvalds
The VFS interface for the 'd_compare()' is a bit special (read: 'odd'), because it really just essentially replaces a memcmp(). The filesystem is supposed to just compare the two names with whatever case-independent or other function. And when I say 'is supposed to', I obviously mean that 'procfs does odd things, and actually looks at the dentry that we don't even pass down, rather than just the name'. Which results in problems, because we actually call d_compare before we have even verified that the dentry is still hashed at all. And that causes a problm since the inode that procfs looks at may have been free'd and the d_inode pointer is NULL. procfs just assumes that all dentries are positive, since procfs itself never generates a negative one. But memory pressure will still result in the dentry getting torn down, and as it is removed by RCU, it still remains visible on some lists - and to d_compare. If the filesystem just did a name comparison, we wouldn't care. And we could just fix procfs to know about negative dentries too. But rather than have the low-level filesystems know about internal VFS details, just move the check for a unhashed dentry up a bit, so that we will only call d_compare on dentries that are still active. The actual oops this caused didn't look like a NULL pointer dereference because procfs did a 'container_of(inode, struct proc_inode, vfs_inode)' to get at its internal proc_inode information from the inode pointer, and accessed a field below the inode. So the oops would look something like BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffffffffff0 IP: [<ffffffff802bc6c6>] proc_sys_compare+0x36/0x50 and was seen on both x86-64 (Alexey Dobriyan and Hugh Dickins) and ppc64 (Hugh Dickins).

2008-09-26GFS2: Support for I/O barriersSteven Whitehouse
This patch adds barrier support to GFS2. There is not a lot of change really... we just add the barrier flag when we write journal header blocks. If the underlying device refuses to support them, we fall back to the previous way of doing things (wait for the I/O and hope) since there is nothing else we can do. There is no user configuration, barriers will always be on unless the device refuses to support them. This seems a reasonable solution to me since this is a correctness issue.

2008-09-26[XFS] Remove xfs_iext_irec_compact_full()Lachlan McIlroy
Yet another bug was found in xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and while the source of the bug was found it wasn't an easy task to track it down because the conditions are very difficult to reproduce. A HUGE thank-you goes to Russell Cattelan and Eric Sandeen for their significant effort in tracking down the source of this corruption. xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() are almost identical - they both compact indirect extent lists by moving extents from subsequent buffers into earlier ones. xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() only moves extents if all of the extents in the next buffer will fit into the empty space in the buffer before it. xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() will go a step further and move part of the next buffer if all the extents wont fit. It will then shift the remaining extents in the next buffer up to the start of the buffer. The bug here was that we did not update er_extoff and this caused extent list corruption. It does not appear that this extra functionality gains us much. Calling xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() instead will do a good enough job at compacting the indirect list and will be quicker too. For the case in xfs_iext_indirect_to_direct() the total number of extents in the indirect list will fit into one buffer so we will never need the extra functionality of xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() there. Also xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() doesn't need to do a memmove() (the buffers will never overlap) so we don't want the performance hit that can incur.

The existing logic tried a path based rename first, but if we needed to remove the destination then it only attempted a filehandle based rename afterward. Not all servers support renaming by filehandle, so we need to always attempt path rename first and fall back to filehandle rename if it doesn't work.

2008-09-18GFS2: high time to take some time over atimeSteven Whitehouse
Until now, we've used the same scheme as GFS1 for atime. This has failed since atime is a per vfsmnt flag, not a per fs flag and as such the "noatime" flag was not getting passed down to the filesystems. This patch removes all the "special casing" around atime updates and we simply use the VFS's atime code. The net result is that GFS2 will now support all the same atime related mount options of any other filesystem on a per-vfsmnt basis. We do lose the "lazy atime" updates, but we gain "relatime". We could add lazy atime to the VFS at a later date, if there is a requirement for that variant still - I suspect relatime will be enough. Also we lose about 100 lines of code after this patch has been applied, and I have a suspicion that it will speed things up a bit, even when atime is "on". So it seems like a nice clean up as well. From a user perspective, everything stays the same except the loss of the per-fs atime quantum tweekable (ought to be per-vfsmnt at the very least, and to be honest I don't think anybody ever used it) and that a number of options which were ignored before now work correctly. Please let me know if you've got any comments. I'm pushing this out early so that you can all see what my plans are. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2008-09-17[XFS] Don't do I/O beyond eof when unreserving spaceLachlan McIlroy
When unreserving space with boundaries that are not block aligned we round up the start and round down the end boundaries and then use this function, xfs_zero_remaining_bytes(), to zero the parts of the blocks that got dropped during the rounding. The problem is we don't consider if these blocks are beyond eof. Worse still is if we encounter delayed allocations beyond eof we will try to use the magic delayed allocation block number as a real block number. If the file size is ever extended to expose these blocks then we'll go through xfs_zero_eof() to zero them anyway.

2008-09-17[XFS] Fix use-after-free with buffersLachlan McIlroy
We have a use-after-free issue where log completions access buffers via the buffer log item and the buffer has already been freed. Fix this by taking a reference on the buffer when attaching the buffer log item and release the hold when the buffer log item is detached and we no longer need the buffer. Also create a new function xfs_buf_item_free() to combine some common code.

2008-09-17[XFS] Prevent lockdep false positives when locking two inodes.David Chinner
If we call xfs_lock_two_inodes() to grab both the iolock and the ilock, then drop the ilocks on both inodes, then grab them again (as xfs_swap_extents() does) then lockdep will report a locking order problem. This is a false positive. To avoid this, disallow xfs_lock_two_inodes() fom locking both inode locks at once - force calers to make two separate calls. This means that nested dropping and regaining of the ilocks will retain the same lockdep subclass and so lockdep will not see anything wrong with this code.
