2009-01-06percpu_counter: FBC_BATCH should be a variableEric Dumazet
For NR_CPUS >= 16 values, FBC_BATCH is 2*NR_CPUS Considering more and more distros are using high NR_CPUS values, it makes sense to use a more sensible value for FBC_BATCH, and get rid of NR_CPUS. A sensible value is 2*num_online_cpus(), with a minimum value of 32 (This minimum value helps branch prediction in __percpu_counter_add()) We already have a hotcpu notifier, so we can adjust FBC_BATCH dynamically. We rename FBC_BATCH to percpu_counter_batch since its not a constant anymore. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Acked-by: David S.

2009-01-06poll: allow f_op->poll to sleepTejun Heo
f_op->poll is the only vfs operation which is not allowed to sleep. It's because poll and select implementation used task state to synchronize against wake ups, which doesn't have to be the case anymore as wait/wake interface can now use custom wake up functions. The non-sleep restriction can be a bit tricky because ->poll is not called from an atomic context and the result of accidentally sleeping in ->poll only shows up as temporary busy looping when the timing is right or rather wrong. This patch converts poll/select to use custom wake up function and use separate triggered variable to synchronize against wake up events. The only added overhead is an extra function call during wake up and negligible. This patch removes the one non-sleep exception from vfs locking rules and is beneficial to userland filesystem implementations like FUSE, 9p or peculiar fs like spufs as it's very difficult for those to implement non-sleeping poll method. While at it, make the following cosmetic changes to make poll.h and select.c checkpatch friendly. * s/type * symbol/type *symbol/ : three places in poll.h * remove blank line before EXPORT_SYMBOL() : two places in select.c Oleg: spotted missing barrier in poll_schedule_timeout() Davide: spotted missing write barrier in pollwake() Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com> Cc: Ron Minnich <rminnich@sandia.gov> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Brad Boyer <flar@allandria.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Cc: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-01-06fs: sys_sync fixNick Piggin
s_syncing livelock avoidance was breaking data integrity guarantee of sys_sync, by allowing sys_sync to skip writing or waiting for superblocks if there is a concurrent sys_sync happening. This livelock avoidance is much less important now that we don't have the get_super_to_sync() call after every sb that we sync. This was replaced by __put_super_and_need_restart.

2009-01-06fs: remove WB_SYNC_HOLDNick Piggin
Remove WB_SYNC_HOLD. The primary motiviation is the design of my anti-starvation code for fsync. It requires taking an inode lock over the sync operation, so we could run into lock ordering problems with multiple inodes. It is possible to take a single global lock to solve the ordering problem, but then that would prevent a future nice implementation of "sync multiple inodes" based on lock order via inode address. Seems like a backward step to remove this, but actually it is busted anyway: we can't use the inode lists for data integrity wait: an inode can be taken off the dirty lists but still be under writeback. In order to satisfy data integrity semantics, we should wait for it to finish writeback, but if we only search the dirty lists, we'll miss it. It would be possible to have a "writeback" list, for sys_sync, I suppose. But why complicate things by prematurely optimise? For unmounting, we could avoid the "livelock avoidance" code, which would be easier, but again premature IMO. Fixing the existing data integrity problem will come next.

WB_SYNC_HOLD is going to be zapped so we should not use it. Use %WB_SYNC_NONE instead. Here is what akpm said: "I think I'll just switch that to WB_SYNC_NONE. The `wait==0' mode is just an advisory thing to help the fs shove lots of data into the queues. If some gets missed then it'll be picked up on the second ->sync_fs call, with wait==1."

2009-01-06fs: truncate blocks outside i_size after O_DIRECT write errorDmitri Monakhov
In case of error extending write may have instantiated a few blocks outside i_size. We need to trim these blocks. We have to do it *regardless* to blocksize. At least ext2, ext3 and reiserfs interpret (i_size < biggest block) condition as error. Fsck will complain about wrong i_size. Then fsck will fix the error by changing i_size according to the biggest block. This is bad because this blocks contain garbage from previous write attempt. And result in data corruption. ####TESTCASE_BEGIN $touch /mnt/test/BIG_FILE ## at this moment /mnt/test/BIG_FILE size and blocks equal to zero open("/mnt/test/BIG_FILE", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_DIRECT, 0666) = 3 write(3, "aaaaaaaaaaaa"..., 104857600) = -1 ENOSPC (No space left on device) ## size and block sould't be changed because write op failed. $stat /mnt/test/BIG_FILE File: `/mnt/test/BIG_FILE' Size: 0 Blocks: 110896 IO Block: 1024 regular empty file <<<<<<<<^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^file size is less than biggest block idx Device: fe07h/65031d Inode: 14 Links: 1 Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: ( 0/ root) Access: 2007-01-24 20:03:38.000000000 +0300 Modify: 2007-01-24 20:03:38.000000000 +0300 Change: 2007-01-24 20:03:39.000000000 +0300 #fsck.ext3 -f /dev/VG/test e2fsck 1.39 (29-May-2006) Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Inode 14, i_size is 0, should be 56556544.

2009-01-06do_mpage_readpage(): don't submit lots of small bios on boundaryMiquel van Smoorenburg
While tracing I/O patterns with blktrace (a great tool) a few weeks ago I identified a minor issue in fs/mpage.c As the comment above mpage_readpages() says, a fs's get_block function will set BH_Boundary when it maps a block just before a block for which extra I/O is required. Since get_block() can map a range of pages, for all these pages the BH_Boundary flag will be set. But we only need to push what I/O we have accumulated at the last block of this range. This makes do_mpage_readpage() send out the largest possible bio instead of a bunch of page-sized ones in the BH_Boundary case.

2009-01-06mm: report the MMU pagesize in /proc/pid/smapsMel Gorman
The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the kernel to back a VMA. This matches the size used by the MMU in the majority of cases. However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for the MMU on older processor. To distinguish, this patch reports MMUPageSize as the pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.

2009-01-06mm: report the pagesize backing a VMA in /proc/pid/smapsMel Gorman
It is useful to verify a hugepage-aware application is using the expected pagesizes for its memory regions. This patch creates an entry called KernelPageSize in /proc/pid/smaps that is the size of page used by the kernel to back a VMA. The entry is not called PageSize as it is possible the MMU uses a different size. This extension should not break any sensible parser that skips lines containing unrecognised information.

2009-01-05inotify: fix type errors in interfacesMichael Kerrisk
The problems lie in the types used for some inotify interfaces, both at the kernel level and at the glibc level. This mail addresses the kernel problem. I will follow up with some suggestions for glibc changes. For the sys_inotify_rm_watch() interface, the type of the 'wd' argument is currently 'u32', it should be '__s32' . That is Robert's suggestion, and is consistent with the other declarations of watch descriptors in the kernel source, in particular, the inotify_event structure in include/linux/inotify.h: struct inotify_event { __s32 wd; /* watch descriptor */ __u32 mask; /* watch mask */ __u32 cookie; /* cookie to synchronize two events */ __u32 len; /* length (including nulls) of name */ char name[0]; /* stub for possible name */ }; The patch makes the changes needed for inotify_rm_watch().

2009-01-05add a vfs_fsync helperChristoph Hellwig
Fsync currently has a fdatawrite/fdatawait pair around the method call, and a mutex_lock/unlock of the inode mutex. All callers of fsync have to duplicate this, but we have a few and most of them don't quite get it right. This patch adds a new vfs_fsync that takes care of this. It's a little more complicated as usual as ->fsync might get a NULL file pointer and just a dentry from nfsd, but otherwise gets afile and we want to take the mapping and file operations from it when it is there. Notes on the fsync callers: - ecryptfs wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the lower file - coda wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the host file, and returning 0 when ->fsync was missing - shm wasn't calling either filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait nor taking i_mutex. Now given that shared memory doesn't have disk backing not doing anything in fsync seems fine and I left it out of the vfs_fsync conversion for now, but in that case we might just not pass it through to the lower file at all but just call the no-op simple_sync_file directly.

This patch fixes a race condition in lseek. While it is expected that unpredictable behaviour may result while repositioning the offset of a file descriptor concurrently with reading/writing to the same file descriptor, this should not happen when merely *reading* the file descriptor's offset. Unfortunately, the only portable way in Unix to read a file descriptor's offset is lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR); however executing this concurrently with read/write may mess up the position.

We must check whether ocfs2 volume support xattr in init_security, if not support xattr and security is enable, would cause failure of mknod. Signed-off-by: Tiger Yang <tiger.yang@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2009-01-05ocfs2: alloc xattr bucket in ocfs2_xattr_set_handleTiger Yang
In extreme situation, may need xattr bucket for setting security entry and acl entries during mknod. This only happens when block size is too small. Signed-off-by: Tiger Yang <tiger.yang@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2009-01-05ocfs2: calculate and reserve credits for xattr value in mknodTiger Yang
We extend the credits for xattr's large value in set_value_outside before, this can give rise to a credits issue when we set one security entry and two acl entries duing mknod. As we remove extend_trans form set_value_outside, we must calculate and reserve the credits for xattr's large value in mknod.

2009-01-05ocfs2/xattr: fix credits calculation during index createTao Ma
When creating a xattr index block, the old calculation forget to add credits for the meta change of the alloc file. So add more credits and more comments to explain it. Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <tao.ma@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2009-01-05ocfs2/xattr: Always updating ctime during xattr set.Tao Ma
In xattr set, we should always update ctime if the operation goes sucessfully. The old one mistakenly put it in ocfs2_xattr_set_entry which is only called when we set xattr in inode or xattr block. The side benefit is that it resolve the bug 1052 since in that scenario, ocfs2_calc_xattr_set_need only calc out the xattr set credits while ocfs2_xattr_set_entry update the inode also which isn't concerned with the process of xattr set.

2009-01-05ocfs2/xattr: Remove extend_trans call and add its credits from the beginningTao Ma
Actually, when setting a new xattr value, we know it from the very beginning, and it isn't like the extension of bucket in which case we can't figure it out. So remove ocfs2_extend_trans in that function and calculate it before the transaction. It also relieve acl operation from the worry about the side effect of ocfs2_extend_trans.

2009-01-05ocfs2/dlm: Fix race during lockres masterySunil Mushran
dlm_get_lock_resource() is supposed to return a lock resource with a proper master. If multiple concurrent threads attempt to lookup the lockres for the same lockid while the lock mastery in underway, one or more threads are likely to return a lockres without a proper master. This patch makes the threads wait in dlm_get_lock_resource() while the mastery is underway, ensuring all threads return the lockres with a proper master. This issue is known to be limited to users using the flock() syscall. For all other fs operations, the ocfs2 dlmglue layer serializes the dlm op for each lockid. Users encountering this bug will see flock() return EINVAL and dmesg have the following error: ERROR: Dlm error "DLM_BADARGS" while calling dlmlock on resource <LOCKID>: bad api args Reported-by: Coly Li <coyli@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2009-01-05ocfs2/dlm: Fix race in adding/removing lockres' to/from the tracking listSunil Mushran
This patch adds a new lock, dlm->tracking_lock, to protect adding/removing lockres' to/from the dlm->tracking_list. We were previously using dlm->spinlock for the same, but that proved inadequate as we could be freeing a lockres from a context that did not hold that lock. As the new lock only protects this list, we can explicitly take it when removing the lockres from the tracking list. This bug was exposed when testing multiple processes concurrently flock() the same file. Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
