From a02908f19c819aeec5e3dcf238adaa6deddd70b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mingming Cao Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2008 22:16:07 -0400 Subject: ext4: journal credits calulation cleanup and fix for non-extent writepage When considering how many journal credits are needed for modifying a chunk of data, we need to account for the super block, inode block, quota blocks and xattr block, indirect/index blocks, also, group bitmap and group descriptor blocks for new allocation (including data and indirect/index blocks). There are many places in ext4 do the calculation on their own and often missed one or two meta blocks, and often they assume single block allocation, and did not considering the multile chunk of allocation case. This patch is trying to cleanup current journal credit code, provides some common helper funtion to calculate the journal credits, to be used for writepage, writepages, DIO, fallocate, migration, defrag, and for both nonextent and extent files. This patch modified the writepage/write_begin credit caculation for nonextent files, to use the new helper function. It also fixed the problem that writepage on nonextent files did not consider the case blocksize Reviewed-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" --- fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.h | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) (limited to 'fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.h') diff --git a/fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.h b/fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.h index eb8bc3afe6e..b455c685a98 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.h +++ b/fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.h @@ -51,6 +51,14 @@ EXT4_XATTR_TRANS_BLOCKS - 2 + \ 2*EXT4_QUOTA_TRANS_BLOCKS(sb)) +/* + * Define the number of metadata blocks we need to account to modify data. + * + * This include super block, inode block, quota blocks and xattr blocks + */ +#define EXT4_META_TRANS_BLOCKS(sb) (EXT4_XATTR_TRANS_BLOCKS + \ + 2*EXT4_QUOTA_TRANS_BLOCKS(sb)) + /* Delete operations potentially hit one directory's namespace plus an * entire inode, plus arbitrary amounts of bitmap/indirection data.
