* ext4: fix a bug accessing freed memory in ext4_abortHidehiro Kawai2008-10-271-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | Vegard Nossum reported a bug which accesses freed memory (found via kmemcheck). When journal has been aborted, ext4_put_super() calls ext4_abort() after freeing the journal_t object, and then ext4_abort() accesses it. This patch fix it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble.

* ext4: add an option to control error handling on file dataHidehiro Kawai2008-10-101-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the journal doesn't abort when it gets an IO error in file data blocks, the file data corruption will spread silently. Because most of applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(), they don't notice the IO error. It's scary for mission critical systems. On the other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets an IO error in file data blocks, the system will easily become inoperable. So this patch introduces a filesystem option to determine whether it aborts the journal or just call printk() when it gets an IO error in file data. If you mount an ext4 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file data write error. If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't abort, just call printk(). data_err=ignore is the default.

* ext4: add checks for errors from jbd2Hidehiro Kawai2008-10-101-4/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the journal has aborted due to a checkpointing failure, we have to keep the contents of the journal space. Otherwise, the filesystem will lose uncheckpointed metadata completely and become inconsistent. To avoid this, we need to keep needs_recovery flag if checkpoint has failed. With this patch, ext4_put_super() detects a checkpointing failure from the return value of journal_destroy(), then it invokes ext4_abort() to make the filesystem read only and keep needs_recovery flag. Errors from jbd2_journal_flush() are also handled by this patch in some places. Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | With modern hard drives, reading 64k takes roughly the same time as reading a 4k block. So request readahead for adjacent inode table blocks to reduce the time it takes when iterating over directories (especially when doing this in htree sort order) in a cold cache case. With this patch, the time it takes to run "git status" on a kernel tree after flushing the caches via "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" is reduced by 21%.

* ext4: New inode allocation for FLEX_BG meta-data groups.Jose R. Santos2008-07-111-0/+57
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch mostly controls the way inode are allocated in order to make ialloc aware of flex_bg block group grouping. It achieves this by bypassing the Orlov allocator when block group meta-data are packed toghether through mke2fs. Since the impact on the block allocator is minimal, this patch should have little or no effect on other block allocation algorithms. By controlling the inode allocation, it can basically control where the initial search for new block begins and thus indirectly manipulate the block allocator. This allocator favors data and meta-data locality so the disk will gradually be filled from block group zero upward. This helps improve performance by reducing seek time. Since the group of inode tables within one flex_bg are treated as one giant inode table, uninitialized block groups would not need to partially initialize as many inode table as with Orlov which would help fsck time as the filesystem usage goes up.

* jbd2: If a journal checksum error is detected, propagate the error to ext4Theodore Ts'o2008-06-061-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | If a journal checksum error is detected, the ext4 filesystem will call ext4_error(), and the mount will either continue, become a read-only mount, or cause a kernel panic based on the superblock flags indicating the user's preference of what to do in case of filesystem corruption being detected.
