2008-07-28[XFS] attrmulti cleanupChristoph Hellwig
xfs_attrmulti_by_handle currently request the size based on sizeof(attr_multiop_t) but should be using sizeof(xfs_attr_multiop_t) because that is what it is dealing with. Despite beeing wrong this actually harmless in practice because both structures are the same size on all platforms. But this sizeof was the only user of struct attr_multiop so we can just kill it. Also move the ATTR_OP_* defines xfs_attr.h into the struct xfs_attr_multiop defintion in xfs_fs.h because they are only used with that structure, and are part of the user ABI for the XFS_IOC_ATTRMULTI_BY_HANDLE ioctl.

2008-07-28[XFS] XFS: ASCII case-insensitive supportBarry Naujok
Implement ASCII case-insensitive support. It's primary purpose is for supporting existing filesystems that already use this case-insensitive mode migrated from IRIX. But, if you only need ASCII-only case-insensitive support (ie. English only) and will never use another language, then this mode is perfectly adequate. ASCII-CI is implemented by generating hashes based on lower-case letters and doing lower-case compares. It implements a new xfs_nameops vector for doing the hashes and comparisons for all filename operations. To create a filesystem with this CI mode, use: # mkfs.xfs -n version=ci <device> SGI-PV: 981516 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:31209a Signed-off-by: Barry Naujok <bnaujok@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>
2008-02-07[XFS] fix 32-bit compat ioctls for GETXFLAGS, SETXFLAGS, GETVERSIONEric Sandeen
XFS_IOC_GETVERSION, XFS_IOC_GETXFLAGS and XFS_IOC_SETXFLAGS all take a "long" which changes size between 32 and 64 bit platforms. So, the ioctl cmds that come in from a 32-bit app aren't as expected, for example on GETXFLAGS, unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(80046601){t:'f';sz:4} due to the size mismatch. So, use instead the 32-bit version of the commands for compat ioctls, and other than that it doesn't take any more manipulation. Also, for both native and compat versions, just define them to the values as defined in fs.h SGI-PV: 971186 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:29849a Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@sandeen.net> Signed-off-by: Lachlan McIlroy <lachlan@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tim Shimmin <tes@sgi.com>
2007-10-19[XFS] cleanup fid types messChristoph Hellwig
Currently XFs has three different fid types: struct fid, struct xfs_fid and struct xfs_fid2 with hte latter two beeing identicaly and the first one beeing the same size but an unstructured array with the same size. This patch consolidates all this to alway uuse struct xfs_fid. This patch is required for an upcoming patch series from me that revamps the nfs exporting code and introduces a Linux-wide struct fid.

2007-07-14[XFS] Concurrent Multi-File Data StreamsDavid Chinner
In media spaces, video is often stored in a frame-per-file format. When dealing with uncompressed realtime HD video streams in this format, it is crucial that files do not get fragmented and that multiple files a placed contiguously on disk. When multiple streams are being ingested and played out at the same time, it is critical that the filesystem does not cross the streams and interleave them together as this creates seek and readahead cache miss latency and prevents both ingest and playout from meeting frame rate targets. This patch set creates a "stream of files" concept into the allocator to place all the data from a single stream contiguously on disk so that RAID array readahead can be used effectively. Each additional stream gets placed in different allocation groups within the filesystem, thereby ensuring that we don't cross any streams. When an AG fills up, we select a new AG for the stream that is not in use. The core of the functionality is the stream tracking - each inode that we create in a directory needs to be associated with the directories' stream. Hence every time we create a file, we look up the directories' stream object and associate the new file with that object. Once we have a stream object for a file, we use the AG that the stream object point to for allocations. If we can't allocate in that AG (e.g. it is full) we move the entire stream to another AG. Other inodes in the same stream are moved to the new AG on their next allocation (i.e. lazy update). Stream objects are kept in a cache and hold a reference on the inode. Hence the inode cannot be reclaimed while there is an outstanding stream reference. This means that on unlink we need to remove the stream association and we also need to flush all the associations on certain events that want to reclaim all unreferenced inodes (e.g. filesystem freeze).

2007-07-14[XFS] Lazy Superblock CountersDavid Chinner
When we have a couple of hundred transactions on the fly at once, they all typically modify the on disk superblock in some way. create/unclink/mkdir/rmdir modify inode counts, allocation/freeing modify free block counts. When these counts are modified in a transaction, they must eventually lock the superblock buffer and apply the mods. The buffer then remains locked until the transaction is committed into the incore log buffer. The result of this is that with enough transactions on the fly the incore superblock buffer becomes a bottleneck. The result of contention on the incore superblock buffer is that transaction rates fall - the more pressure that is put on the superblock buffer, the slower things go. The key to removing the contention is to not require the superblock fields in question to be locked. We do that by not marking the superblock dirty in the transaction. IOWs, we modify the incore superblock but do not modify the cached superblock buffer. In short, we do not log superblock modifications to critical fields in the superblock on every transaction. In fact we only do it just before we write the superblock to disk every sync period or just before unmount. This creates an interesting problem - if we don't log or write out the fields in every transaction, then how do the values get recovered after a crash? the answer is simple - we keep enough duplicate, logged information in other structures that we can reconstruct the correct count after log recovery has been performed. It is the AGF and AGI structures that contain the duplicate information; after recovery, we walk every AGI and AGF and sum their individual counters to get the correct value, and we do a transaction into the log to correct them. An optimisation of this is that if we have a clean unmount record, we know the value in the superblock is correct, so we can avoid the summation walk under normal conditions and so mount/recovery times do not change under normal operation. One wrinkle that was discovered during development was that the blocks used in the freespace btrees are never accounted for in the AGF counters. This was once a valid optimisation to make; when the filesystem is full, the free space btrees are empty and consume no space. Hence when it matters, the "accounting" is correct. But that means the when we do the AGF summations, we would not have a correct count and xfs_check would complain. Hence a new counter was added to track the number of blocks used by the free space btrees. This is an *on-disk format change*. As a result of this, lazy superblock counters are a mkfs option and at the moment on linux there is no way to convert an old filesystem. This is possible - xfs_db can be used to twiddle the right bits and then xfs_repair will do the format conversion for you. Similarly, you can convert backwards as well. At some point we'll add functionality to xfs_admin to do the bit twiddling easily....

2005-11-02[XFS] Ondisk format extension for extended attributes (attr2). Basically,Nathan Scott
the data/attr forks now grow up/down from either end of the literal area, rather than dividing the literal area into two chunks and growing both upward. Means we can now make much more efficient use of the attribute space, incl. fitting DMF attributes inline in 256 byte inodes, and large jumps in dbench3 performance numbers. It is self enabling, but can be forced on/off via the attr2/noattr2 mount options. SGI-PV: 941645 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux:xfs-kern:23835a Signed-off-by: Nathan Scott <nathans@sgi.com>

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!
