2007-01-17JFS: call io_schedule() instead of schedule() to avoid deadlockDave Kleikamp
The introduction of Jens Axboe's explicit i/o plugging patches introduced a deadlock in jfs. This was caused by the process initiating I/O not unplugging the queue before waiting on the commit thread. The commit thread itself was waiting for that I/O to complete. Calling io_schedule() rather than schedule() unplugs the I/O queue avoiding the deadlock, and it appears to be the right function to call in any case.

2006-12-07[PATCH] Add include/linux/freezer.h and move definitions from sched.hNigel Cunningham
Move process freezing functions from include/linux/sched.h to freezer.h, so that modifications to the freezer or the kernel configuration don't require recompiling just about everything.

I look at code, and see that 1)locks wasn't release in the opposite order in which they were taken 2)in jfs_rename we lock new_ip, and in "error path" we didn't unlock it 3)I see strange expression: "! !"

2006-01-08[PATCH] Fix and add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait)OGAWA Hirofumi
This patch add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) and use it. See mm/filemap.c: And changes the filemap_write_and_wait() and filemap_write_and_wait_range(). Current filemap_write_and_wait() doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns error. However, even if filemap_fdatawrite() returned an error, it may have submitted the partially data pages to the device. (e.g. in the case of -ENOSPC) <quotation> Andrew Morton writes, If filemap_fdatawrite() returns an error, this might be due to some I/O problem: dead disk, unplugged cable, etc. Given the generally crappy quality of the kernel's handling of such exceptions, there's a good chance that the filemap_fdatawait() will get stuck in D state forever. </quotation> So, this patch doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns the -EIO. Trond, could you please review the nfs part? Especially I'm not sure, nfs must use the "filemap_fdatawrite(inode->i_mapping) == 0", or not.

2005-10-03JFS: make special inodes play nicely with page balancingDave Kleikamp
This patch fixes up a few problems with jfs's reserved inodes. 1. There is no need for the jfs code setting the I_DIRTY bits in i_state. I am ashamed that the code ever did this, and surprised it hasn't been noticed until now. 2. Make sure special inodes are on an inode hash list. If the inodes are unhashed, __mark_inode_dirty will fail to put the inode on the superblock's dirty list, and the data will not be flushed under memory pressure. 3. Force writing journal data to disk when metapage_writepage is unable to write a metadata page due to pending journal I/O. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>

2005-09-15JFS: Fix sparse warnings, including endian errorDave Kleikamp
The fix in inode.c is a real bug. It could result in undeleted, yet unconnected files on big-endian hardware. The others are trivial. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
2005-08-10JFS: Fix race in txLockDave Kleikamp
TxAnchor.anon_list is protected by jfsTxnLock (TXN_LOCK), but there was a place in txLock() that was removing an entry from the list without holding the spinlock. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
2005-07-27JFS: Improve sync barrier processingDave Kleikamp
Under heavy load, hot metadata pages are often locked by non-committed transactions, making them difficult to flush to disk. This prevents the sync point from advancing past a transaction that had modified the page. There is a point during the sync barrier processing where all outstanding transactions have been committed to disk, but no new transaction have been allowed to proceed. This is the best time to write the metadata. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
2005-06-25[PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezingChristoph Lameter
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h: frozen(process) Check for frozen process freezing(process) Check if a process is being frozen freeze(process) Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator) thaw_process(process) Restart process frozen_process(process) Process is frozen now 2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all kernel sources except sched.h 3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver 4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN). This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe! Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-05-02[PATCH] JFS: Write journal sync points more oftenDave Kleikamp
This patch adds jfs_syncpt, which calls lmLogSync to write sync points to the journal both in jfs_sync_fs and when sync barrier processing completes. lmLogSync accomplishes two things: 1) it pushes logged-but-dirty metadata pages to disk, and 2) it writes a sync record to the journal so that jfs_fsck doesn't need to replay more transactions than is necessary.

2005-05-02[PATCH] JFS: reduce number of synchronous transactionsDave Kleikamp
Use an inline pxd list rather than an xad list in the xadlock. When the number of extents being modified can fit with the xadlock, a transaction can be committed asynchronously. Using a list of pxd's instead of xad's allows us to fit 4 extents, rather than 2. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
