* fs: dcache reduce branches in lookup pathNick Piggin2011-01-071-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them. This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we have d_op but not the particular operation. Patched with: git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>
* fs: icache RCU free inodesNick Piggin2011-01-071-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RCU free the struct inode. This will allow: - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must. - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking. - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the page lock to follow page->mapping. The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts kicking over, this increases to about 20%. In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller. The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking, so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I doubt it will be a problem. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>
* BKL: Remove BKL from fatArnd Bergmann2010-10-041-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The lock_kernel in fat_put_super is not needed because it only protects the super block itself and we know that no other thread can reach it because we are about to kfree the object. In the two fill_super functions, this converts the locking to use lock_super like elsewhere in the fat code. This is probably not needed either, but is consistent and puts us on the safe side.

Exceptions: - affs already has identical copy & pasted code at the beginning of affs_put_super so no need to do it twice. - xfs does the right thing without it and I have changes pending for the xfs tree touching this are so I don't really need conflicts here..

The recursion worked for the BKL, but after the conversion to lock_super (which uses a mutex), it just deadlocks. Thanks to Bart for debugging this and testing the fix. The lock debugging information from the original report: ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 2.6.27-rc3-bisect-00448-ga7f5aaf #16 --------------------------------------------- mv/4020 is trying to acquire lock: (&type->s_lock_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20 but task is already holding lock: (&type->s_lock_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20 other info that might help us debug this: 3 locks held by mv/4020: #0: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#9/1){--..}, at: [<c01b2336>] do_unlinkat+0x66/0x140 #1: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01b0954>] vfs_unlink+0x84/0x110 #2: (&type->s_lock_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20 stack backtrace: Pid: 4020, comm: mv Not tainted 2.6.27-rc3-bisect-00448-ga7f5aaf #16 [<c014e694>] validate_chain+0x984/0xea0 [<c0108d70>] ? native_sched_clock+0x0/0xf0 [<c014ee9c>] __lock_acquire+0x2ec/0x9b0 [<c014f5cf>] lock_acquire+0x6f/0x90 [<c01a90fe>] ? lock_super+0x1e/0x20 [<c044e5fd>] mutex_lock_nested+0xad/0x300 [<c01a90fe>] ? lock_super+0x1e/0x20 [<c01a90fe>] ? lock_super+0x1e/0x20 [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20 [<f8b3a700>] fat_write_inode+0x60/0x2b0 [fat] [<c0450878>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x48/0x80 [<f8b3a953>] ? fat_sync_inode+0x3/0x20 [fat] [<f8b3a962>] fat_sync_inode+0x12/0x20 [fat] [<f8b37c7e>] fat_remove_entries+0xbe/0x120 [fat] [<f8b422ef>] vfat_unlink+0x5f/0x90 [vfat] [<f8b42290>] ? vfat_unlink+0x0/0x90 [vfat] [<c01b0968>] vfs_unlink+0x98/0x110 [<c01b2400>] do_unlinkat+0x130/0x140 [<c016a8f5>] ? audit_syscall_entry+0x105/0x150 [<c01b253b>] sys_unlinkat+0x3b/0x40 [<c01040d3>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x3f ======================= where the deadlock is due to the nesting of lock_super from vfat_unlink to fat_write_inode: - do_unlinkat - vfs_unlink - vfat_unlink * lock_super - fat_remove_entries - fat_sync_inode - fat_write_inode * lock_super and the fix is to simply remove the use of lock_super() in fat_write_inode. The lock_super() there had been just an automatic conversion of the kernel lock to the superblock lock, but no locking was actually needed there, since the code in fat_write_inode already protected all relevant accesses with a spinlock (sbi->inode_hash_lock to be exact). The only code inside the BKL (and thus the superblock lock) was accesses tp local variables or calls to functions that have long been SMP-safe (i.e. sb_bread, mark_buffe_dirty and brlese). Bart reports: "Looks good. I ran 10 parallel processes creating 1M files truncating them, writing to them again and then deleting them. This patch fixes the issue I ran into.

* fatfs: add UTC timestamp optionJoe Peterson2008-07-251-7/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide a new mount option ("tz=UTC") for DOS (vfat/msdos) filesystems, allowing timestamps to be in coordinated universal time (UTC) rather than local time in applications where doing this is advantageous. In particular, portable devices that use fat/vfat (such as digital cameras) can benefit from using UTC in their internal clocks, thus avoiding daylight saving time errors and general time ambiguity issues. The user of the device does not have to worry about changing the time when moving from place or when daylight saving changes. The new mount option, when set, disables the counter-adjustment that Linux currently makes to FAT timestamp info in anticipation of the normal userspace time zone correction. When used in this new mode, all daylight saving time and time zone handling is done in userspace as is normal for many other filesystems (like ext3). The default mode, which remains unchanged, is still appropriate when mounting volumes written in Windows (because of its use of local time). I originally based this patch on one submitted last year by Paul Collins, but I updated it to work with current source and changed variable/option naming. Ogawa Hirofumi (who maintains these filesystems) and I discussed this patch at length on lkml, and he suggested using the option name in the attached version of the patch. Barry Bouwsma pointed out a good addition to the patch as well.
