2006-02-05[PATCH] VFS: Ensure LOOKUP_CONTINUE flag is preserved by link_path_walk()Trond Myklebust
When walking a path, the LOOKUP_CONTINUE flag is used by some filesystems (for instance NFS) in order to determine whether or not it is looking up the last component of the path. It this is the case, it may have to look at the intent information in order to perform various tasks such as atomic open. A problem currently occurs when link_path_walk() hits a symlink. In this case LOOKUP_CONTINUE may be cleared prematurely when we hit the end of the path passed by __vfs_follow_link() (i.e. the end of the symlink path) rather than when we hit the end of the path passed by the user. The solution is to have link_path_walk() clear LOOKUP_CONTINUE if and only if that flag was unset when we entered the function.

2006-02-05[PATCH] jbd: fix transaction batchingAndrew Morton
Ben points out that: When writing files out using O_SYNC, jbd's 1 jiffy delay results in a significant drop in throughput as the disk sits idle. The patch below results in a 4-5x performance improvement (from 6.5MB/s to ~24-30MB/s on my IDE test box) when writing out files using O_SYNC. So optimise the batching code by omitting it entirely if the process which is doing a sync write is the same as the one which did the most recent sync write. If that's true, we're unlikely to get any other processes joining the transaction. (Has been in -mm for ages - it took me a long time to get on to performance testing it) Numbers, on write-cache-disabled IDE: /usr/bin/time -p synctest -n 10 -uf -t 1 -p 1 dir-name Unpatched: 40 seconds Patched: 35 seconds Batching disabled: 35 seconds This is the problematic single-process-doing-fsync case. With multiple fsyncing processes the numbers are AFACIT unaltered by the patch. Aside: performance testing and instrumentation shows that the transaction batching almost doesn't help (testing with synctest -n 1 -uf -t 100 -p 10 dir-name on non-writeback-caching IDE). This is because by the time one process is running a synchronous commit, a bunch of other processes already have a transaction handle open, so they're all going to batch into the same transaction anyway. The batching seems to offer maybe 5-10% speedup with this workload, but I'm pretty sure it was more important than that when it was first developed 4-odd years ago... Cc: "Stephen C.

2006-02-05[PATCH] percpu data: only iterate over possible CPUsEric Dumazet
percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus. As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS loops to use for_each_cpu(). (The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h. powerpc has gone it alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's currently corrupting memory).

2006-02-03[PATCH] fix O_DIRECT read of last block in a sparse fileJeff Moyer
Currently, if you open a file O_DIRECT, truncate it to a size that is not a multiple of the disk block size, and then try to read the last block in the file, the read will return 0. The problem is in do_direct_IO, here: /* Handle holes */ if (!buffer_mapped(map_bh)) { char *kaddr; ... if (dio->block_in_file >= i_size_read(dio->inode)>>blkbits) { /* We hit eof */ page_cache_release(page); goto out; } We shift off any remaining bytes in the final block of the I/O, resulting in a 0-sized read. I've attached a patch that fixes this. I'm not happy about how ugly the math is getting, so suggestions are more than welcome. I've tested this with a simple program that performs the steps outlined for reproducing the problem above. Without the patch, we get a 0-sized result from read. With the patch, we get the correct return value from the short read.

2006-02-03[PATCH] v9fs: fix corner cases when flushing requestLatchesar Ionkov
When v9fs_mux_rpc sends a 9P message, it may be put in the queue of unsent request. If the user process receives a signal, v9fs_mux_rpc sets the request error to ERREQFLUSH and assigns NULL to request's send message. If the message was still in the unsent queue, v9fs_write_work would produce an oops while processing it. The patch makes sure that requests that are being flushed are moved to the pending requests queue safely. If a request is being flushed, don't remove it from the list of pending requests even if it receives a reply before the flush is acknoledged. The request will be removed during from the Rflush handler (v9fs_mux_flush_cb).
