2009-04-04Make non-compat preadv/pwritev use native register sizeLinus Torvalds
Instead of always splitting the file offset into 32-bit 'high' and 'low' parts, just split them into the largest natural word-size - which in C terms is 'unsigned long'. This allows 64-bit architectures to avoid the unnecessary 32-bit shifting and masking for native format (while the compat interfaces will obviously always have to do it). This also changes the order of 'high' and 'low' to be "low first". Why? Because when we have it like this, the 64-bit system calls now don't use the "pos_high" argument at all, and it makes more sense for the native system call to simply match the user-mode prototype. This results in a much more natural calling convention, and allows the compiler to generate much more straightforward code. On x86-64, we now generate testq %rcx, %rcx # pos_l js .L122 #, movq %rcx, -48(%rbp) # pos_l, pos from the C source loff_t pos = pos_from_hilo(pos_h, pos_l); ... if (pos < 0) return -EINVAL; and the 'pos_h' register isn't even touched. It used to generate code like mov %r8d, %r8d # pos_low, pos_low salq $32, %rcx #, tmp71 movq %r8, %rax # pos_low, pos.386 orq %rcx, %rax # tmp71, pos.386 js .L122 #, movq %rax, -48(%rbp) # pos.386, pos which isn't _that_ horrible, but it does show how the natural word size is just a more sensible interface (same arguments will hold in the user level glibc wrapper function, of course, so the kernel side is just half of the equation!) Note: in all cases the user code wrapper can again be the same. You can just do #define HALF_BITS (sizeof(unsigned long)*4) __syscall(PWRITEV, fd, iov, count, offset, (offset >> HALF_BITS) >> HALF_BITS); or something like that. That way the user mode wrapper will also be nicely passing in a zero (it won't actually have to do the shifts, the compiler will understand what is going on) for the last argument. And that is a good idea, even if nobody will necessarily ever care: if we ever do move to a 128-bit lloff_t, this particular system call might be left alone. Of course, that will be the least of our worries if we really ever need to care, so this may not be worth really caring about.

2009-04-03ocfs2: recover orphans in offline slots during recovery and mountSrinivas Eeda
During recovery, a node recovers orphans in it's slot and the dead node(s). But if the dead nodes were holding orphans in offline slots, they will be left unrecovered. If the dead node is the last one to die and is holding orphans in other slots and is the first one to mount, then it only recovers it's own slot, which leaves orphans in offline slots. This patch queues complete_recovery to clean orphans for all offline slots during mount and node recovery.

2009-04-03ocfs2: Pagecache usage optimization on ocfs2Hisashi Hifumi
A page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate on pagesize != blocksize environment. This aops checks that all buffers which correspond to a part of a file that we want to read are uptodate. If so, we do not have to issue actual read IO to HDD even if a page is not uptodate because the portion we want to read are uptodate. "block_is_partially_uptodate" function is already used by ext2/3/4. With the following patch random read/write mixed workloads or random read after random write workloads can be optimized and we can get performance improvement.

2009-04-03ocfs2: fix rare stale inode errors when exporting via nfswengang wang
For nfs exporting, ocfs2_get_dentry() returns the dentry for fh. ocfs2_get_dentry() may read from disk when the inode is not in memory, without any cross cluster lock. this leads to the file system loading a stale inode. This patch fixes above problem. Solution is that in case of inode is not in memory, we get the cluster lock(PR) of alloc inode where the inode in question is allocated from (this causes node on which deletion is done sync the alloc inode) before reading out the inode itsself. then we check the bitmap in the group (the inode in question allcated from) to see if the bit is clear. if it's clear then it's stale. if the bit is set, we then check generation as the existing code does. We have to read out the inode in question from disk first to know its alloc slot and allot bit. And if its not stale we read it out using ocfs2_iget(). The second read should then be from cache. And also we have to add a per superblock nfs_sync_lock to cover the lock for alloc inode and that for inode in question. this is because ocfs2_get_dentry() and ocfs2_delete_inode() lock on them in reverse order. nfs_sync_lock is locked in EX mode in ocfs2_get_dentry() and in PR mode in ocfs2_delete_inode(). so that mutliple ocfs2_delete_inode() can run concurrently in normal case.

2009-04-03ocfs2: Optimize inode group allocation by recording last used group.Tao Ma
In ocfs2, the block group search looks for the "emptiest" group to allocate from. So if the allocator has many equally(or almost equally) empty groups, new block group will tend to get spread out amongst them. So we add osb_inode_alloc_group in ocfs2_super to record the last used inode allocation group. For more details, please see http://oss.oracle.com/osswiki/OCFS2/DesignDocs/InodeAllocationStrategy.

2009-04-03ocfs2: Optimize inode allocation by remembering last groupTao Ma
In ocfs2, the inode block search looks for the "emptiest" inode group to allocate from. So if an inode alloc file has many equally (or almost equally) empty groups, new inodes will tend to get spread out amongst them, which in turn can put them all over the disk. This is undesirable because directory operations on conceptually "nearby" inodes force a large number of seeks. So we add ip_last_used_group in core directory inodes which records the last used allocation group. Another field named ip_last_used_slot is also added in case inode stealing happens. When claiming new inode, we passed in directory's inode so that the allocation can use this information.

ocfs2_dx_dir_rebalance() is passed the block offset of a dx leaf which needs rebalancing. Since we rebalance an entire cluster at a time however, this function needs to calculate the beginning of that cluster, in blocks. The calculation was wrong, which would result in a read of non-leaf blocks. Fix the calculation by adding ocfs2_block_to_cluster_start() which is a more straight-forward way of determining this.

2009-04-03ocfs2: Add a name indexed b-tree to directory inodesMark Fasheh
This patch makes use of Ocfs2's flexible btree code to add an additional tree to directory inodes. The new tree stores an array of small, fixed-length records in each leaf block. Each record stores a hash value, and pointer to a block in the traditional (unindexed) directory tree where a dirent with the given name hash resides. Lookup exclusively uses this tree to find dirents, thus providing us with constant time name lookups. Some of the hashing code was copied from ext3. Unfortunately, it has lots of unfixed checkpatch errors. I left that as-is so that tracking changes would be easier.

2009-04-03NFS: Add mount options to enable local caching on NFSDavid Howells
Add NFS mount options to allow the local caching support to be enabled. The attached patch makes it possible for the NFS filesystem to be told to make use of the network filesystem local caching service (FS-Cache). To be able to use this, a recent nfsutils package is required. There are three variant NFS mount options that can be added to a mount command to control caching for a mount. Only the last one specified takes effect: (*) Adding "fsc" will request caching. (*) Adding "fsc=<string>" will request caching and also specify a uniquifier. (*) Adding "nofsc" will disable caching. For example: mount warthog:/ /a -o fsc The cache of a particular superblock (NFS FSID) will be shared between all mounts of that volume, provided they have the same connection parameters and are not marked 'nosharecache'. Where it is otherwise impossible to distinguish superblocks because all the parameters are identical, but the 'nosharecache' option is supplied, a uniquifying string must be supplied, else only the first mount will be permitted to use the cache. If there's a key collision, then the second mount will disable caching and give a warning into the kernel log.

2009-04-03NFS: nfs_readpage_async() needs to be accessible as a fallback for local cachingDavid Howells
nfs_readpage_async() needs to be non-static so that it can be used as a fallback for the local on-disk caching should an EIO crop up when reading the cache.

2009-04-03NFS: Add read context retention for FS-Cache to call back withDavid Howells
Add read context retention so that FS-Cache can call back into NFS when a read operation on the cache fails EIO rather than reading data. This permits NFS to then fetch the data from the server instead using the appropriate security context.

2009-04-03NFS: FS-Cache page managementDavid Howells
FS-Cache page management for NFS. This includes hooking the releasing and invalidation of pages marked with PG_fscache (aka PG_private_2) and waiting for completion of the write-to-cache flag (PG_fscache_write aka PG_owner_priv_2).

2009-04-03NFS: Add some new I/O counters for FS-Cache doing things for NFSDavid Howells
Add some new NFS I/O counters for FS-Cache doing things for NFS. A new line is emitted into /proc/pid/mountstats if caching is enabled that looks like: fsc: <rok> <rfl> <wok> <wfl> <unc> Where <rok> is the number of pages read successfully from the cache, <rfl> is the number of failed page reads against the cache, <wok> is the number of successful page writes to the cache, <wfl> is the number of failed page writes to the cache, and <unc> is the number of NFS pages that have been disconnected from the cache.
