* [PATCH] Make BH_Unwritten a first class bufferhead flag V2David Chinner2007-02-123-11/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, XFS uses BH_PrivateStart for flagging unwritten extent state in a bufferhead. Recently, I found the long standing mmap/unwritten extent conversion bug, and it was to do with partial page invalidation not clearing the unwritten flag from bufferheads attached to the page but beyond EOF. See here for a full explaination: http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-12/msg00196.html The solution I have checked into the XFS dev tree involves duplicating code from block_invalidatepage to clear the unwritten flag from the bufferhead(s), and then calling block_invalidatepage() to do the rest. Christoph suggested that this would be better solved by pushing the unwritten flag into the common buffer head flags and just adding the call to discard_buffer(): http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-12/msg00239.html The following patch makes BH_Unwritten a first class citizen.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It makes it incrementally clearer to read the code when the top of a macro spaghetti-pile only receives the 3 arguments it uses, rather than 2 extra ones which are not used. Also when you start pulling this thread out of the sweater (i.e. remove unused args from XFS_BTREE_*_ADDR), a couple other third arms etc fall off too. If they're not used in the macro, then they sometimes don't need to be passed to the function calling the macro either, etc.... Patch provided by Eric Sandeen (sandeen@sandeen.net).

If this functionality ever goes into Linux, it will be provided at a different layer, most likely through the security hooks in the kernel so we will never need this functionality in XFS.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem is the two callers of xfs_iozero() are rounding out the range to be zeroed to the end of a fsb and in some cases this extends past the new eof. The call to commit_write() in xfs_iozero() will cause the Linux inode's file size to be set too high.

| * [XFS] Ensure a frozen filesystem has a clean log before writing the dummyDavid Chinner2007-02-103-7/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | record. The current Linux XFS freeze code is a mess. We flush the metadata buffers out while we are still allowing new transactions to start and then fail to flush the dirty buffers back out before writing the unmount and dummy records to the log. This leads to problems when the frozen filesystem is used for snapshots - we do log recovery on a readonly image and often it appears that the log image in the snapshot is not correct. Hence we end up with hangs, oops and mount failures when trying to mount a snapshot image that has been created when the filesystem has not been correctly frozen. To fix this, we need to move th metadata flush to after we wait for all current transactions to complete in teh second stage of the freeze. This means that when we write the final log records, the log should be clean and recovery should never occur on a snapshot image created from a frozen filesystem.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When writing less than a filesystem block of data into an unwritten extent via buffered I/O, __xfs_get_blocks fails to set the buffer new flag. As a result, the generic code will not zero either edge of the block resulting in garbage being written to disk either side of the real data. Set the buffer new state on bufferd writes to unwritten extents to ensure that zeroing occurs.

| * [XFS] Reduction global superblock lock contention near ENOSPC.David Chinner2007-02-102-93/+140
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing per-cpu superblock counter code uses the global superblock spin lock when we approach ENOSPC for global synchronisation. On larger machines than this code was originally tested on this can still get catastrophic spinlock contention due increasing rebalance frequency near ENOSPC. By introducing a sleeping lock that is used to serialise balances and modifications near ENOSPC we prevent contention from needlessly from wasting the CPU time of potentially hundreds of CPUs. To reduce the number of balances occuring, we separate the need rebalance case from the slow allocate case. Now, a counter running dry will trigger a rebalance during which counters are disabled. Any thread that sees a disabled counter enters a different path where it waits on the new mutex. When it gets the new mutex, it checks if the counter is disabled. If the counter is disabled, then we _know_ that we have to use the global counter and lock and it is safe to do so immediately. Otherwise, we drop the mutex and go back to trying the per-cpu counters which we know were re-enabled.

| * [XFS] Keep stack usage down for 4k stacks by using noinline.David Chinner2007-02-1023-63/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gcc-4.1 and more recent aggressively inline static functions which increases XFS stack usage by ~15% in critical paths. Prevent this from occurring by adding noinline to the STATIC definition. Also uninline some functions that are too large to be inlined and were causing problems with CONFIG_FORCED_INLINING=y. Finally, clean up all the different users of inline, __inline and __inline__ and put them under one STATIC_INLINE macro. For debug kernels the STATIC_INLINE macro uninlines those functions.

| * [XFS] Current usage of buftarg flags is incorrect.David Chinner2007-02-102-10/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The {test,set,clear}_bit() operations take a bit index for the bit to operate on. The XBT_* flags are defined as bit fields which is incorrect, not to mention the way the bit fields are enumerated is broken too. This was only working by chance. Fix the definitions of the flags and make the code using them use the {test,set,clear}_bit() operations correctly.
