2008-03-31[GFS2] Only do lo_incore_commit onceBob Peterson
This patch is performance related. When we're doing a log flush, I noticed we were calling buf_lo_incore_commit twice: once for data bufs and once for metadata bufs. Since this is the same function and does the same thing in both cases, there should be no reason to call it twice. Since we only need to call it once, we can also make it faster by removing it from the generic "lops" code and making it a stand-along static function.

2008-03-31[GFS2] Streamline indirect pointer tree height calculationSteven Whitehouse
This patch improves the calculation of the tree height in order to reduce the number of operations which are carried out on each call to gfs2_block_map. In the common case, we now make a single comparison, rather than calculating the required tree height from scratch each time. Also in the case that the tree does need some extra height, we start from the current height rather from zero when we work out what the new height ought to be. In addition the di_height field is moved into the inode proper and reduced in size to a u8 since the value must be between 0 and GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT (10).

2008-03-31[GFS2] Speed up gfs2_write_alloc_required, deprecate gfs2_extent_mapSteven Whitehouse
This patch removes the call to gfs2_extent_map from gfs2_write_alloc_required, instead we call gfs2_block_map directly. This results in fewer overall calls to gfs2_block_map in the multi-block case. Also, gfs2_extent_map is marked as deprecated so that people know that its going away as soon as all the callers have been converted. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2008-02-14Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}Jan Blunck
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata. Together with the other patches of this series - it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on <dentry,vfsmount> pairs - it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed - it reduces the overall code size: without patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux with patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux This patch: Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

2008-02-05Pagecache zeroing: zero_user_segment, zero_user_segments and zero_userChristoph Lameter
Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2) Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and makes code clearer. zero_user_segment(page, start, end) Same for a single segment. zero_user(page, start, length) Length variant for the case where we know the length. We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues: 1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable. 2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM. Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code. Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other functions defined in highmem.h. Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these functions are called. Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Allow journal recovery on read-only mountAbhijith Das
This patch allows gfs2 to perform journal recovery even if it is mounted read-only. Strictly speaking, a read-only mount should not be writing to the filesystem, but we do this only to perform journal recovery. A read-only mount will fail if we don't recover the dirty journal. Also, when gfs2 is used as a root filesystem, it will be mounted read-only before being mounted read-write during the boot sequence. A failed read-only mount will panic the machine during bootup.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Fix page_mkwrite truncation race pathSteven Whitehouse
There was a bug in the truncation/invalidation race path for ->page_mkwrite for gfs2. It ought to return 0 so that the effect is the same as if the page was truncated at any of the other points at which the page_lock is dropped. This will result in the restart of the whole page fault path. If it was due to a real truncation (as opposed to an invalidate because we let a glock go) then the ->fault path will pick that up when it gets called again.

2008-01-25[GFS2] gfs2_alloc_required performanceBob Peterson
This is a small I/O performance enhancement to gfs2. (Actually, it is a rework of an earlier version I got wrong). The idea here is to check if the write extends past the last block in the file. If so, the function can save itself a lot of time and trouble because it knows an allocate will be required. Benchmarks like iozone should see better performance.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Remove unneeded i_spinBob Peterson
This patch removes a vestigial variable "i_spin" from the gfs2_inode structure. This not only saves us memory (>300000 of these in memory for the oom test) it also saves us time because we don't have to spend time initializing it (i.e. slightly better performance).

2008-01-25[GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of lineSteven Whitehouse
It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note that OCFS2 use the same approach. In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add too much overhead.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Fix assert in log codeSteven Whitehouse
Although the values were all being calculated correctly, there was a race in the assert due to the way it was using atomic variables.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Fix problems relating to execution of files on GFS2Steven Whitehouse
This patch fixes a couple of problems which affected the execution of files on GFS2. The first is that there was a corner case where inodes were not always uptodate at the point at which permissions checks were being carried out, this was resulting in refusal of execute permission, but only on the first lookup, subsequent requests worked correctly. The second was a problem relating to incorrect updating of file sizes which was introduced with the write_begin/end code for GFS2 a little while back.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Reorganize function gfs2_glmutex_lockBob Peterson
This patch optimizes the function gfs2_glmutex_lock. The basic theory is: Why bother initializing a holder, setting up wait bits and then waiting on them, if you know the glock can be yours. So the holder stuff is placed inside the if checking if the glock is locked. This one needs careful scrutiny because changing anything to do with locking should strike terror into one's heart.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Run through full bitmaps quicker in gfs2_bitfitBob Peterson
I eliminated the passing of an unused parameter into gfs2_bitfit called rgd. This also changes the gfs2_bitfit code that searches for free (or used) blocks. Before, the code was trying to check for bytes that indicated 4 blocks in the undesired state. The problem is, it was spending more time trying to do this than it actually was saving. This version only optimizes the case where we're looking for free blocks, and it checks a machine word at a time. So on 32-bit machines, it will check 32-bits (16 blocks) and on 64-bit machines, it will check 64-bits (32 blocks) at a time. The compiler optimizes that quite well and we save some time, especially when running through full bitmaps (like the bitmaps allocated for the journals). There's probably a more elegant or optimized way to do this, but I haven't thought of it yet. I'm open to suggestions.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Journal extent mappingBob Peterson

2008-01-25[GFS2] Remove function gfs2_get_blockBob Peterson
This patch is just a cleanup. Function gfs2_get_block() just calls function gfs2_block_map reversing the last two parameters. By reversing the parameters, gfs2_block_map() may be called directly and function gfs2_get_block may be eliminated altogether. Since this function is done for every block operation, this streamlines the code and makes it a little bit more efficient.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Check for installation of mount helpers for DLM mountsFabio Massimo Di Nitto
The patch is a fix to abort mount if the mount.gfs* and possible umount.* are missing from /sbin. While we do what we can to guarantee that they are installed properly in userland (CVS HEAD), we want to make sure that mount still aborts properly. The only sign of missing helpers is that lock_dlm will receive no mount options at all. According to David the problem does not exist for lock_nolock as the helpers are not required. The patch has been tested for both gfs and gfs2 and it works as expected. The lack of mount.gfs* will generate an error that is propagated to mount: oot@node1:~# mount -t gfs2 /dev/nbd2 /mnt/ mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/nbd2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so [ 3513.303346] GFS2: fsid=: Trying to join cluster "lock_dlm", "gutsy:gfs2" [ 3513.304546] DLM/GFS2/GFS ERROR: (u)mount helpers are not installed properly!
