| * Sanitize qnx4 fsync handlingAl Viro2009-06-127-202/+17Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * have directory operations use mark_buffer_dirty_inode(), so that sync_mapping_buffers() would get those. * make qnx4_write_inode() honour its last argument. * get rid of insane copies of very ancient "walk the indirect blocks" in qnx4/fsync - they never matched the actual fs layout and, fortunately, never'd been called. Again, all this junk is not needed; ->fsync() should just do sync_mapping_buffers + sync_inode (and if we implement block allocation for qnx4, we'll need to use mark_buffer_dirty_inode() for extent blocks) Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

| * fs: block_dump missing dentry lockingNick Piggin2009-06-121-17/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I think the block_dump output in __mark_inode_dirty is missing dentry locking. Surely the i_dentry list can change any time, so we may not even *get* a dentry there. If we do get one by chance, then it would appear to be able to go away or get renamed at any time...

| * fs: remove incorrect I_NEW warningsNick Piggin2009-06-121-2/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some filesystems can call in to sync an inode that is still in the I_NEW state (eg. ext family, when mounted with -osync). This is OK because the filesystem has sole access to the new inode, so it can modify i_state without races (because no other thread should be modifying it, by definition of I_NEW). Ie. a false positive, so remove the warnings. The races are described here 7ef0d7377cb287e08f3ae94cebc919448e1f5dff, which is also where the warnings were introduced.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only user of the i_cindex element in the inode structure is used is by the firewire drivers. As part of an attempt to slim down the inode structure to save memory --- since a typical Linux system will have hundreds of thousands if not millions of inodes cached, a reduction in the size inode has high leverage. The firewire driver does not need i_cindex in any fast path, so it's simple enough to calculate when it is needed, instead of wasting space in the inode structure.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Note that since we can't run into contention between remount_fs and write_super (due to exclusion on s_umount), we have to care only about filesystems that touch lock_super() on their own. Out of those ext3, ext4, hpfs, sysv and ufs do need it; fat doesn't since its ->remount_fs() only accesses assign-once data (basically, it's "we have no atime on directories and only have atime on files for vfat; force nodiratime and possibly noatime into *flags").

A couple of filesystems had trivial enough ->put_super (only kfree and NULLing of s_fs_info + stuff in there) to not get any locking: coda, cramfs, efs, hugetlbfs, omfs, qnx4, shmem, all others got the full treatment. Most of them probably don't need it, but I'd rather sort that out individually. Preferably after all the other BKL pushdowns in that area.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We can't run into contention on it. All other callers of lock_super() either hold s_umount (and we have it exclusive) or hold an active reference to superblock in question, which prevents the call of generic_shutdown_super() while the reference is held. So we can replace lock_super(s) with get_fs_excl() in generic_shutdown_super() (and corresponding change for unlock_super(), of course). Since ext4 expects s_lock held for its put_super, take lock_super() into it. The rest of filesystems do not care at all. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Exceptions: - affs already has identical copy & pasted code at the beginning of affs_put_super so no need to do it twice. - xfs does the right thing without it and I have changes pending for the xfs tree touching this are so I don't really need conflicts here..

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the VFS calls vfs_dq_sync to sync out disk quotas for a given superblock. This is a small wrapper around sync_dquots which for the case of a non-NULL superblock is a small wrapper around quota_sync_sb. Just make quota_sync_sb global (rename it to sync_quota_sb) and call it directly. Also call it directly for those cases in quota.c that have a superblock and leave sync_dquots purely an iterator over sync_quota_sb and remove it's superblock argument. To make this nicer move the check for the lack of a quota_sync method from the callers into sync_quota_sb.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is unnecessarily fragile to have two places (fsync_super() and do_sync()) doing data integrity sync of the filesystem. Alter __fsync_super() to accommodate needs of both callers and use it. So after this patch __fsync_super() is the only place where we gather all the calls needed to properly send all data on a filesystem to disk. Nice bonus is that we get a complete livelock avoidance and write_supers() is now only used for periodic writeback of superblocks. sync_blockdevs() introduced a couple of patches ago is gone now.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So far, do_sync() called: sync_inodes(0); sync_supers(); sync_filesystems(0); sync_filesystems(1); sync_inodes(1); This ordering makes it kind of hard for filesystems as sync_inodes(0) need not submit all the IO (for example it skips inodes with I_SYNC set) so e.g. forcing transaction to disk in ->sync_fs() is not really enough. Therefore sys_sync has not been completely reliable on some filesystems (ext3, ext4, reiserfs, ocfs2 and others are hit by this) when racing e.g. with background writeback. A similar problem hits also other filesystems (e.g. ext2) because of write_supers() being called before the sync_inodes(1). Change the ordering of calls in do_sync() - this requires a new function sync_blockdevs() to preserve the property that block devices are always synced after write_super() / sync_fs() call.

A microbenchmark yes, but it exercises some important paths in the mm. Before: avg = 501.9 std = 14.7773 After: avg = 462.286 std = 5.46106 (50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence, but there is quite a bit of variation there still) It does this by removing the complex per-cpu locking and counter-cache and replaces it with a percpu counter in struct vfsmount. This makes the code much simpler, and avoids spinlocks (although the msync is still pretty costly, unfortunately). It results in about 900 bytes smaller code too. It does increase the size of a vfsmount, however. It should also give a speedup on large systems if CPUs are frequently operating on different mounts (because the existing scheme has to operate on an atomic in the struct vfsmount when switching between mounts). But I'm most interested in the single threaded path performance for the moment.
