2008-05-23[XFS] Fix fsync() b0rkage.David Chinner
xfs_fsync() fails to wait for data I/O completion before checking if the inode is dirty or clean to decide whether to log the inode or not. This misses inode size updates when the data flushed by the fsync() is extending the file. Hence, like fdatasync(), we need to wait for I/o completion first, then check the inode for cleanliness. Doing so makes the behaviour of xfs_fsync() identical for fsync and fdatasync and we *always* use synchronous semantics if the inode is dirty. Therefore also kill the differences and remove the unused flags from the xfs_fsync function and callers.

2008-04-29[XFS] kill usesless IHOLD calls in xfs_remove and xfs_rmdirChristoph Hellwig
The VFS always has an inode reference when we call these functions. So we only need to grab a signle reference to each inode that's joined to a transaction - all the other bumping and dropping is as useless as the comments describing the IRIX semantics.

2008-04-29[XFS] remove manual lookup from xfs_rename and simplify lockingChristoph Hellwig
->rename already gets the target inode passed if it exits. Pass it down to xfs_rename so that we can avoid looking it up again. Also simplify locking as the first lock section in xfs_rename can go away now: the isdir is an invariant over the lifetime of the inode, and new_parent and the nlink check are namespace topology protected by i_mutex in the VFS. The projid check needs to move into the second lock section anyway to not be racy. Also kill the now unused xfs_dir_lookup_int and remove the now-unused first_locked argumet to xfs_lock_inodes.

2008-04-29[XFS] shrink mrlock_tChristoph Hellwig
The writer field is not needed for non_DEBU builds so remove it. While we're at i also clean up the interface for is locked asserts to go through and xfs_iget.c helper with an interface like the xfs_ilock routines to isolated the XFS codebase from mrlock internals. That way we can kill mrlock_t entirely once rw_semaphores grow an islocked facility. Also remove unused flags to the ilock family of functions.

2008-04-18[XFS] Update c/mtime correctly on truncatesDavid Chinner
XFS changes the c/mtime of an inode when truncating it to the same size. The c/mtime is only supposed to change if the size is changed. Not to be confused with ftruncate, where the c/mtime is supposed to be changed even if the size is not changed. The Linux VFS encodes this semantic difference in the flags it sends down to ->setattr, which XFS currently ignores. We need to make XFS pay attention to the VFS flags and hence Do The Right Thing.

2008-04-18[XFS] Don't block pdflush when writing back inodesDavid Chinner
When pdflush is writing back inodes, it can get stuck on inode cluster buffers that are currently under I/O. This occurs when we write data to multiple inodes in the same inode cluster at the same time. Effectively, delayed allocation marks the inode dirty during the data writeback. Hence if the inode cluster was flushed during the writeback of the first inode, the writeback of the second inode will block waiting for the inode cluster write to complete before writing it again for the newly dirtied inode. Basically, we want to avoid this from happening so we don't block pdflush and slow down all of writeback. Hence we introduce a non-blocking async inode flush flag that pdflush uses. If this flag is set, we use non-blocking operations (e.g. try locks) whereever we can to avoid blocking or extra I/O being issued.

2007-10-15[XFS] decontaminate vnode operations from behavior detailsChristoph Hellwig
All vnode ops now take struct xfs_inode pointers and the behaviour related glue is split out into methods of it's own. This required fixing xfs_create/mkdir/symlink to not mess with the inode pointer but rather use a separate boolean for error handling. Thanks to Dave Chinner for that fix.

2007-10-15[XFS] Radix tree based inode cachingDavid Chinner
One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing it's incore inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default hash sizes chosen can only ever be a tradeoff between memory consumption and the maximum realistic size of the cache. As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a filesystem needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize mount option to allow decent scalability with inode cache operations. A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is based on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain conditions (sparse cluster cache population) this can become a limitation long before the inode hash is causing issues. The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash and replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability limitations of the hashes. It also reduces the size of the inodes by 3 pointers....
