2006-05-03[PATCH] ext3: multile block allocate little endian fixesMingming Cao
Some places in ext3 multiple block allocation code (in 2.6.17-rc3) don't handle the little endian well. This was resulting in *wrong* block numbers being assigned to in-memory block variables and then stored on disk eventually. The following patch has been verified to fix an ext3 filesystem failure when run ltp test on a 64 bit machine.

2006-04-26[PATCH] forgotten ->b_data in memcpy() call in ext3/resize.c (oopsable)Al Viro
sbi->s_group_desc is an array of pointers to buffer_head. memcpy() of buffer size from address of buffer_head is a bad idea - it will generate junk in any case, may oops if buffer_head is close to the end of slab page and next page is not mapped and isn't what was intended there. IOW, ->b_data is missing in that call. Fortunately, result doesn't go into the primary on-disk data structures, so only backup ones get crap written to them; that had allowed this bug to remain unnoticed until now.

2006-03-30[PATCH] Introduce sys_splice() system callJens Axboe
This adds support for the sys_splice system call. Using a pipe as a transport, it can connect to files or sockets (latter as output only). From the splice.c comments: "splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands. This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other. The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer. Named by Larry McVoy, original implementation from Linus, extended by Jens to support splicing to files and fixing the initial implementation bugs.

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/ const.

2006-03-26[PATCH] ext3_get_blocks: Adjust reservation window size for mblocksMingming Cao
Optimize the block reservation and the multiple block allocation: with the knowledge of the total number of blocks ahead, set or adjust the reservation window size properly (based on the number of blocks needed) before block allocation happens: if there isn't any reservation yet, make sure the reservation window equals to or greater than the number of blocks needed, before create an reservation window; if a reservation window is already exists, try to extends the window size to match the number of blocks to allocate. This could increase the possibility of completing multiple blocks allocation in a single request, as blocks are only allocated in the range of the inode's reservation window.

2006-03-26[PATCH] ext3_get_blocks: Mapping multiple blocks at a onceMingming Cao
Currently ext3_get_block() only maps or allocates one block at a time. This is quite inefficient for sequential IO workload. I have posted a early implements a simply multiple block map and allocation with current ext3. The basic idea is allocating the 1st block in the existing way, and attempting to allocate the next adjacent blocks on a best effort basis. More description about the implementation could be found here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=112162230003522&w=2 The following the latest version of the patch: break the original patch into 5 patches, re-worked some logicals, and fixed some bugs. The break ups are: [patch 1] Adding map multiple blocks at a time in ext3_get_blocks() [patch 2] Extend ext3_get_blocks() to support multiple block allocation [patch 3] Implement multiple block allocation in ext3-try-to-allocate (called via ext3_new_block()). [patch 4] Proper accounting updates in ext3_new_blocks() [patch 5] Adjust reservation window size properly (by the given number of blocks to allocate) before block allocation to increase the possibility of allocating multiple blocks in a single call. Tests done so far includes fsx,tiobench and dbench. The following numbers collected from Direct IO tests (1G file creation/read) shows the system time have been greatly reduced (more than 50% on my 8 cpu system) with the patches. 1G file DIO write: 2.6.15 2.6.15+patches real 0m31.275s 0m31.161s user 0m0.000s 0m0.000s sys 0m3.384s 0m0.564s 1G file DIO read: 2.6.15 2.6.15+patches real 0m30.733s 0m30.624s user 0m0.000s 0m0.004s sys 0m0.748s 0m0.380s Some previous test we did on buffered IO with using multiple blocks allocation and delayed allocation shows noticeable improvement on throughput and system time. This patch: Add support of mapping multiple blocks in one call. This is useful for DIO reads and re-writes (where blocks are already allocated), also is in line with Christoph's proposal of using getblocks() in mpage_readpage() or mpage_readpages().

2006-03-24[PATCH] cpuset memory spread: slab cache filesystemsPaul Jackson
Mark file system inode and similar slab caches subject to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD memory spreading. If a slab cache is marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, then anytime that a task that's in a cpuset with the 'memory_spread_slab' option enabled goes to allocate from such a slab cache, the allocations are spread evenly over all the memory nodes (task->mems_allowed) allowed to that task, instead of favoring allocation on the node local to the current cpu. The following inode and similar caches are marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD: file cache ==== ===== fs/adfs/super.c adfs_inode_cache fs/affs/super.c affs_inode_cache fs/befs/linuxvfs.c befs_inode_cache fs/bfs/inode.c bfs_inode_cache fs/block_dev.c bdev_cache fs/cifs/cifsfs.c cifs_inode_cache fs/coda/inode.c coda_inode_cache fs/dquot.c dquot fs/efs/super.c efs_inode_cache fs/ext2/super.c ext2_inode_cache fs/ext2/xattr.c (fs/mbcache.c) ext2_xattr fs/ext3/super.c ext3_inode_cache fs/ext3/xattr.c (fs/mbcache.c) ext3_xattr fs/fat/cache.c fat_cache fs/fat/inode.c fat_inode_cache fs/freevxfs/vxfs_super.c vxfs_inode fs/hpfs/super.c hpfs_inode_cache fs/isofs/inode.c isofs_inode_cache fs/jffs/inode-v23.c jffs_fm fs/jffs2/super.c jffs2_i fs/jfs/super.c jfs_ip fs/minix/inode.c minix_inode_cache fs/ncpfs/inode.c ncp_inode_cache fs/nfs/direct.c nfs_direct_cache fs/nfs/inode.c nfs_inode_cache fs/ntfs/super.c ntfs_big_inode_cache_name fs/ntfs/super.c ntfs_inode_cache fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmfs.c dlmfs_inode_cache fs/ocfs2/super.c ocfs2_inode_cache fs/proc/inode.c proc_inode_cache fs/qnx4/inode.c qnx4_inode_cache fs/reiserfs/super.c reiser_inode_cache fs/romfs/inode.c romfs_inode_cache fs/smbfs/inode.c smb_inode_cache fs/sysv/inode.c sysv_inode_cache fs/udf/super.c udf_inode_cache fs/ufs/super.c ufs_inode_cache net/socket.c sock_inode_cache net/sunrpc/rpc_pipe.c rpc_inode_cache The choice of which slab caches to so mark was quite simple. I marked those already marked SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT, except for fs/xfs, dentry_cache, inode_cache, and buffer_head, which were marked in a previous patch. Even though SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT is for a different purpose, it marks the same potentially large file system i/o related slab caches as we need for memory spreading. Given that the rule now becomes "wherever you would have used a SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT slab cache flag before (usually the inode cache), use the SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag too", this should be easy enough to maintain. Future file system writers will just copy one of the existing file system slab cache setups and tend to get it right without thinking.

2006-03-23[PATCH] ext3_readdir: use generic readaheadAndrew Morton
Linus points out that ext3_readdir's readahead only cuts in when ext3_readdir() is operating at the very start of the directory. So for large directories we end up performing no readahead at all and we suck. So take it all out and use the core VM's page_cache_readahead(). This means that ext3 directory reads will use all of readahead's dynamic sizing goop. Note that we're using the directory's filp->f_ra to hold the readahead state, but readahead is actually being performed against the underlying blockdev's address_space. Fortunately the readahead code is all set up to handle this. Tested with printk. It works. I was struggling to find a real workload which actually cared.

2005-10-30[PATCH] Locking problems while EXT3FS_DEBUG onGlauber de Oliveira Costa
I noticed some problems while running ext3 with the debug flag set on. More precisely, I was unable to umount the filesystem. Some investigation took me to the patch that follows. At a first glance , the lock/unlock I've taken out seems really not necessary, as the main code (outside debug) does not lock the super. The only additional danger operations that debug code introduces seems to be related to bitmap, but bitmap operations tends to be all atomic anyway. I also took the opportunity to fix 2 spelling errors. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-10-28[PATCH] gfp_t: fs/*Al Viro
- ->releasepage() annotated (s/int/gfp_t), instances updated - missing gfp_t in fs/* added - fixed misannotation from the original sweep caught by bitwise checks: XFS used __nocast both for gfp_t and for flags used by XFS allocator. The latter left with unsigned int __nocast; we might want to add a different type for those but for now let's leave them alone. That, BTW, is a case when __nocast use had been actively confusing - it had been used in the same code for two different and similar types, with no way to catch misuses. Switch of gfp_t to bitwise had caught that immediately... One tricky bit is left alone to be dealt with later - mapping->flags is a mix of gfp_t and error indications. Left alone for now.

2005-09-09[PATCH] ext3: Enable atomic inode security labelingStephen Smalley
This patch modifies ext3 to call the inode_init_security LSM hook to obtain the security attribute for a newly created inode and to set the resulting attribute on the new inode as part of the same transaction. This parallels the existing processing for setting ACLs on newly created inodes.
