2009-01-27UBIFS: fix no_chk_data_crcArtem Bityutskiy
When data CRC checking is disabled, UBIFS returns incorrect return code from the 'try_read_node()' function (0 instead of 1, which means CRC error), which make the caller re-read the data node again, but using a different code patch, so the second read is fine. Thus, we read the same node twice. And the result of this is that UBIFS is slower with no_chk_data_crc option than it is with chk_data_crc option. This patches fixes the problem.

2008-12-31UBIFS: fix checkpatch.pl warningsArtem Bityutskiy
These are mostly long lines and wrong indentation warning fixes. But also there are two volatile variables and checkpatch.pl complains about them: WARNING: Use of volatile is usually wrong: see Documentation/volatile-considered-harmful.txt + volatile int gc_seq; WARNING: Use of volatile is usually wrong: see Documentation/volatile-considered-harmful.txt + volatile int gced_lnum; Well, we anyway use smp_wmb() for c->gc_seq and c->gced_lnum, so these 'volatile' modifiers can be just dropped.

2008-11-21UBIFS: do not allocate too muchArtem Bityutskiy
Bulk-read allocates 128KiB or more using kmalloc. The allocation starts failing often when the memory gets fragmented. UBIFS still works fine in this case, because it falls-back to standard (non-optimized) read method, though. This patch teaches bulk-read to allocate exactly the amount of memory it needs, instead of allocating 128KiB every time. This patch is also a preparation to the further fix where we'll have a pre-allocated bulk-read buffer as well. For example, now the @bu object is prepared in 'ubifs_bulk_read()', so we could path either pre-allocated or allocated information to 'ubifs_do_bulk_read()' later. Or teaching 'ubifs_do_bulk_read()' not to allocate 'bu->buf' if it is already there. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2008-11-06UBIFS: fix compilation warningsArtem Bityutskiy
We print 'ino_t' type using '%lu' printk() placeholder, but this results in many warnings when compiling for Alpha platform. Fix this by adding (unsingned long) casts.

2008-09-30UBIFS: improve znode splitting rulesAdrian Hunter
When inserting into a full znode it is split into two znodes. Because data node keys are usually consecutive, it is better to try to keep them together. This patch does a better job of that. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com>
2008-09-30UBIFS: add no_chk_data_crc mount optionAdrian Hunter
UBIFS read performance can be improved by skipping the CRC check when data nodes are read. This option can be used if the underlying media is considered to be highly reliable. Note that CRCs are always checked for metadata. Read speed on Arm platform with OneNAND goes from 19 MiB/s to 27 MiB/s with data CRC checking disabled.

2008-09-30UBIFS: add bulk-read facilityAdrian Hunter
Some flash media are capable of reading sequentially at faster rates. UBIFS bulk-read facility is designed to take advantage of that, by reading in one go consecutive data nodes that are also located consecutively in the same LEB. Read speed on Arm platform with OneNAND goes from 17 MiB/s to 19 MiB/s. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com>

2008-08-25UBIFS: allow for racing between GC and TNCAdrian Hunter
The TNC mutex is unlocked prematurely when reading leaf nodes with non-hashed keys. This is unsafe because the node may be moved by garbage collection and the eraseblock unmapped, although that has never actually happened during stress testing. This patch fixes the flaw by detecting the race and retrying with the TNC mutex locked. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com>
2008-08-25UBIFS: always read hashed-key nodes under TNC mutexAdrian Hunter
Leaf-nodes that have a hashed key are stored in the leaf-node-cache (LNC) which is protected by the TNC mutex. Consequently, when reading a leaf node with a hashed key (i.e. directory entries, xattr entries) the TNC mutex is always required. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com>
