2011-01-10ext3: speed up file creates by optimizing rec_len functionsEric Sandeen
The addition of 64k block capability in the rec_len_from_disk and rec_len_to_disk functions added a bit of math overhead which slows down file create workloads needlessly when the architecture cannot even support 64k blocks, thanks to page size limits. Similar changes already exist in the ext4 codebase. The directory entry checking can also be optimized a bit by sprinkling in some unlikely() conditions to move the error handling out of line. bonnie++ sequential file creates on a 512MB ramdisk speeds up from about 77,000/s to about 82,000/s, about a 6% improvement.

2011-01-10ext3: Add FITRIM handlingLukas Czerner
The ioctl takes fstrim_range structure (defined in include/linux/fs.h) as an argument specifying a range of filesystem to trim and the minimum size of an continguous extent to trim. After the FITRIM is done, the number of bytes passed from the filesystem down the block stack to the device for potential discard is stored in fstrim_range.len. This number is a maximum discard amount from the storage device's perspective, because FITRIM called repeatedly will keep sending the same sectors for discard. fstrim_range.len will report the same potential discard bytes each time, but only sectors which had been written to between the discards would actually be discarded by the storage device. Further, the kernel block layer reserves the right to adjust the discard ranges to fit raid stripe geometry, non-trim capable devices in a LVM setup, etc. These reductions would not be reflected in fstrim_range.len. Thus fstrim_range.len can give the user better insight on how much storage space has potentially been released for wear-leveling, but it needs to be one of only one criteria the userspace tools take into account when trying to optimize calls to FITRIM.

2011-01-10ext3: Add batched discard support for ext3Lukas Czerner
Walk through allocation groups and trim all free extents. It can be invoked through FITRIM ioctl on the file system. The main idea is to provide a way to trim the whole file system if needed, since some SSD's may suffer from performance loss after the whole device was filled (it does not mean that fs is full!). It search for free extents in allocation groups specified by Byte range start -> start+len. When the free extent is within this range, blocks are marked as used and then trimmed. Afterwards these blocks are marked as free in per-group bitmap.

2011-01-07fs: icache RCU free inodesNick Piggin
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow: - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must. - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking. - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the page lock to follow page->mapping. The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts kicking over, this increases to about 20%. In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller. The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking, so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I doubt it will be a problem. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

If the first htree directory is missing '.' or '..' but is otherwise a valid directory, and we do a lookup for '.' or '..', it's possible to dereference an uninitialized memory pointer in ext3_htree_next_block(). Avoid this. We avoid this by moving the special case from ext3_dx_find_entry() to ext3_find_entry(); this also means we can optimize ext3_find_entry() slightly when NFS looks up "..". Thanks to Brad Spengler for pointing a Clang warning that led me to look more closely at this code. The warning was harmless, but it was useful in pointing out code that was too ugly to live.

2010-11-13block: clean up blkdev_get() wrappers and their usersTejun Heo
After recent blkdev_get() modifications, open_by_devnum() and open_bdev_exclusive() are simple wrappers around blkdev_get(). Replace them with blkdev_get_by_dev() and blkdev_get_by_path(). blkdev_get_by_dev() is identical to open_by_devnum(). blkdev_get_by_path() is slightly different in that it doesn't automatically add %FMODE_EXCL to @mode. All users are converted. Most conversions are mechanical and don't introduce any behavior difference. There are several exceptions. * btrfs now sets FMODE_EXCL in btrfs_device->mode, so there's no reason to OR it explicitly on blkdev_put(). * gfs2, nilfs2 and the generic mount_bdev() now set FMODE_EXCL in sb->s_mode. * With the above changes, sb->s_mode now always should contain FMODE_EXCL. WARN_ON_ONCE() added to kill_block_super() to detect errors. The new blkdev_get_*() functions are with proper docbook comments. While at it, add function description to blkdev_get() too.

2010-11-13block: make blkdev_get/put() handle exclusive accessTejun Heo
Over time, block layer has accumulated a set of APIs dealing with bdev open, close, claim and release. * blkdev_get/put() are the primary open and close functions. * bd_claim/release() deal with exclusive open. * open/close_bdev_exclusive() are combination of open and claim and the other way around, respectively. * bd_link/unlink_disk_holder() to create and remove holder/slave symlinks. * open_by_devnum() wraps bdget() + blkdev_get(). The interface is a bit confusing and the decoupling of open and claim makes it impossible to properly guarantee exclusive access as in-kernel open + claim sequence can disturb the existing exclusive open even before the block layer knows the current open if for another exclusive access. Reorganize the interface such that, * blkdev_get() is extended to include exclusive access management. @holder argument is added and, if is @FMODE_EXCL specified, it will gain exclusive access atomically w.r.t. other exclusive accesses. * blkdev_put() is similarly extended. It now takes @mode argument and if @FMODE_EXCL is set, it releases an exclusive access. Also, when the last exclusive claim is released, the holder/slave symlinks are removed automatically. * bd_claim/release() and close_bdev_exclusive() are no longer necessary and either made static or removed. * bd_link_disk_holder() remains the same but bd_unlink_disk_holder() is no longer necessary and removed. * open_bdev_exclusive() becomes a simple wrapper around lookup_bdev() and blkdev_get(). It also has an unexpected extra bdev_read_only() test which probably should be moved into blkdev_get(). * open_by_devnum() is modified to take @holder argument and pass it to blkdev_get(). Most of bdev open/close operations are unified into blkdev_get/put() and most exclusive accesses are tested atomically at the open time (as it should). This cleans up code and removes some, both valid and invalid, but unnecessary all the same, corner cases. open_bdev_exclusive() and open_by_devnum() can use further cleanup - rename to blkdev_get_by_path() and blkdev_get_by_devt() and drop special features. Well, let's leave them for another day. Most conversions are straight-forward. drbd conversion is a bit more involved as there was some reordering, but the logic should stay the same.

This fixes a WARN backtrace in mark_buffer_dirty() that occurs during unmount when the underlying block device is removed.

2010-10-05ext3: Fix lost extented attributes for inode with ino == 11Jan Kara
If a filesystem has inode size > 128 and someone deletes lost+found and reuses inode 11 for some other file, extented attributes set for this inode before umount will get lost after remounting the filesystem. This is because extended attributes will get stored in an inode but ext3_iget will ignore them due to workaround of a bug in an old mkfs. Fix the problem by initializing i_extra_isize to 0 for freshly allocated inodes where mkfs workaround in ext3_iget applies. This way these inodes will always store extended attributes in a special block and no problems occur.

2010-10-04BKL: Explicitly add BKL around get_sb/fill_superJan Blunck
This patch is a preparation necessary to remove the BKL from do_new_mount(). It explicitly adds calls to lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() around get_sb/fill_super operations for filesystems that still uses the BKL. I've read through all the code formerly covered by the BKL inside do_kern_mount() and have satisfied myself that it doesn't need the BKL any more. do_kern_mount() is already called without the BKL when mounting the rootfs and in nfsctl. do_kern_mount() calls vfs_kern_mount(), which is called from various places without BKL: simple_pin_fs(), nfs_do_clone_mount() through nfs_follow_mountpoint(), afs_mntpt_do_automount() through afs_mntpt_follow_link(). Both later functions are actually the filesystems follow_link inode operation. vfs_kern_mount() is calling the specified get_sb function and lets the filesystem do its job by calling the given fill_super function. Therefore I think it is safe to push down the BKL from the VFS to the low-level filesystems get_sb/fill_super operation.

2010-08-09remove inode_setattrChristoph Hellwig
Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers. This moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence. In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate so it was left out in the opencoded variant: spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs, which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.

2010-08-09introduce __block_write_beginChristoph Hellwig
Split up the block_write_begin implementation - __block_write_begin is a new trivial wrapper for block_prepare_write that always takes an already allocated page and can be either called from block_write_begin or filesystem code that already has a page allocated. Remove the handling of already allocated pages from block_write_begin after switching all callers that do it to __block_write_begin.

2010-08-09sort out blockdev_direct_IO variantsChristoph Hellwig
Move the call to vmtruncate to get rid of accessive blocks to the callers in prepearation of the new truncate calling sequence. This was only done for DIO_LOCKING filesystems, so the __blockdev_direct_IO_newtrunc variant was not needed anyway. Get rid of blockdev_direct_IO_no_locking and its _newtrunc variant while at it as just opencoding the two additional paramters is shorted than the name suffix.

2010-08-05ext3: Fix dirtying of journalled buffers in data=journal modeJan Kara
In data=journal mode, we still use block_write_begin() to prepare page for writing. This function can occasionally mark buffer dirty which violates journalling assumptions - when a buffer is part of a transaction, it should be dirty and a buffer can be already part of a forget list of some transaction when block_write_begin() gets called. This violation of journalling assumptions then results in "JBD: Spotted dirty metadata buffer..." warnings. In fact, temporary dirtying the buffer while the page is still locked does not really cause problems to the journalling because we won't write the buffer until the page gets unlocked. So we just have to make sure to clear dirty bits before unlocking the page. Reviewed-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2010-07-23ext3: default to ordered modeDave Chinner
data=writeback mode is dangerous as it leads to higher data loss and stale data exposure when systems crash. It should not be the default, especially when all major distros ensure their ext3 filesystems default to ordered mode. Change the default mode to the safer data=ordered mode, because we should be caring far more about avoiding stale data exposure than performance.

2010-07-21ext3: Avoid filesystem corruption after a crash under heavy delete loadJan Kara
It can happen that ext3_free_branches calls ext3_forget() for an indirect block in an earlier transaction than a transaction in which we clear pointer to this indirect block. Thus if we crash before a transaction clearing the block pointer is committed, we will see indirect block pointing to already freed blocks and complain during orphan list cleanup. The fix is simple: Make sure ext3_forget() is called in the transaction doing block pointer clearing.

2010-07-21ext3: remove vestiges of nobh supportChristoph Hellwig
The nobh option was only supported for writeback mode, but given that all write paths (except mmapped writed) actually create buffer heads, it effectively was a no-op already. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
