* GFS2: Remove rs_requested field from reservationsSteven Whitehouse2012-09-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rs_requested field is left over from the original allocation code, however this should have been a parameter passed to the various functions from gfs2_inplace_reserve() and not a member of the reservation structure as the value is not required after the initial allocation. This also helps simplify the code since we no longer need to set the rs_requested to zero. Also the gfs2_inplace_release() function can also be simplified since the reservation structure will always be defined when it is called, and the only remaining task is to unlock the rgrp if required. It can also now be called unconditionally too, resulting in a further simplification. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Merge two nearly identical xattr functionsSteven Whitehouse2012-09-241-64/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | There were two functions in the xattr code which were nearly identical, the only difference being that one was copy data into the unstuffed xattrs and the other was copying data out from it. This patch merges the two functions such that the code which deal with iteration over the unstuffed xattrs is no longer duplicated. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Reduce file fragmentationBob Peterson2012-07-191-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reduces GFS2 file fragmentation by pre-reserving blocks. The resulting improved on disk layout greatly speeds up operations in cases which would have resulted in interlaced allocation of blocks previously. A typical example of this is 10 parallel dd processes, each writing to a file in a common dirctory. The implementation uses an rbtree of reservations attached to each resource group (and each inode).

* GFS2: Fold quota data into the reservations structBob Peterson2012-06-061-22/+2
| | | | | | | | | | This patch moves the ancillary quota data structures into the block reservations structure. This saves GFS2 some time and effort in allocating and deallocating the qadata structure. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Make sure rindex is uptodate before starting transactionsBob Peterson2012-04-051-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | This patch removes the call from gfs2_blk2rgrd to function gfs2_rindex_update and replaces it with individual calls. The former way turned out to be too problematic. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: FITRIM ioctl supportSteven Whitehouse2012-02-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The FITRIM ioctl provides an alternative way to send discard requests to the underlying device. Using the discard mount option results in every freed block generating a discard request to the block device. This can be slow, since many block devices can only process discard requests of larger sizes, and also such operations can be time consuming. Rather than using the discard mount option, FITRIM allows a sweep of the filesystem on an occasional basis, and also to optionally avoid sending down discard requests for smaller regions. In GFS2 FITRIM will work at resource group granularity. There is a flag for each resource group which keeps track of which resource groups have been trimmed. This flag is reset whenever a deallocation occurs in the resource group, and set whenever a successful FITRIM of that resource group has taken place. This helps to reduce repeated discard requests for the same block ranges, again improving performance. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: decouple quota allocations from block allocationsBob Peterson2011-11-221-19/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch separates the code pertaining to allocations into two parts: quota-related information and block reservations. This patch also moves all the block reservation structure allocations to function gfs2_inplace_reserve to simplify the code, and moves the frees to function gfs2_inplace_release.

* GFS2: move toward a generic multi-block allocatorBob Peterson2011-11-211-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is a revision of the one I previously posted. I tried to integrate all the suggestions Steve gave. The purpose of the patch is to change function gfs2_alloc_block (allocate either a dinode block or an extent of data blocks) to a more generic gfs2_alloc_blocks function that can allocate both a dinode _and_ an extent of data blocks in the same call. This will ultimately help us create a multi-block reservation scheme to reduce file fragmentation. This patch moves more toward a generic multi-block allocator that takes a pointer to the number of data blocks to allocate, plus whether or not to allocate a dinode. In theory, it could be called to allocate (1) a single dinode block, (2) a group of one or more data blocks, or (3) a dinode plus several data blocks.

* GFS2: combine gfs2_alloc_block and gfs2_alloc_diBob Peterson2011-11-151-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | GFS2 functions gfs2_alloc_block and gfs2_alloc_di do basically the same things, with a few exceptions. This patch combines the two functions into a slightly more generic gfs2_alloc_block. Having one centralized block allocation function will reduce code redundancy and make it easier to implement multi-block reservations to reduce file fragmentation in the future.

* GFS2: Fix very unlikley memory leak in ACL xattr codeSteven Whitehouse2011-11-091-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was spotted by automated code analysis. In case reading an ACL xattr failed (only likely to happen if there is an I/O error for example, and even then only with unstuffed xattrs, so pretty difficult to trigger) a small amount of memory could potentially be leaked. This patch adds a kfree to the error path, and also removes a test which is no longer required (gfs2_ea_get_copy always returns either a negative error, or a length) Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Use cached rgrp in gfs2_rlist_add()Steven Whitehouse2011-10-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Each block which is deallocated, requires a call to gfs2_rlist_add() and each of those calls was calling gfs2_blk2rgrpd() in order to figure out which rgrp the block belonged in. This can be speeded up by making use of the rgrp cached in the inode. We also reset this cached rgrp in case the block has changed rgrp. This should provide a big reduction in gfs2_blk2rgrpd() calls during deallocation. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Cache the most recently used resource group in the inodeSteven Whitehouse2011-10-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This means that after the initial allocation for any inode, the last used resource group is cached in the inode for future use. This drastically reduces the number of lookups of resource groups in the common case, and this the contention on that data structure. The allocation algorithm is the same as previously, except that we always check to see if the goal block is within the cached rgrp first before going to the rbtree to look one up.

* GFS2: Make resource groups "append only" during life of fsSteven Whitehouse2011-10-211-15/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we have ruled out supporting online filesystem shrink, it is possible to make the resource group list append only during the life of a super block. This gives several benefits: Firstly, we only need to read new rindex elements as they are added rather than needing to reread the whole rindex file each time one element is added. Secondly, the rindex glock can be held for much shorter periods of time, and is completely removed from the fast path for allocations. The lock is taken in shared mode only when updating the resource groups when the first allocation occurs, and after a grow has taken place. Thirdly, this results in a reduction in code size, and everything gets a lot simpler to understand in this area. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Use ->dirty_inode()Steven Whitehouse2011-10-211-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The aim of this patch is to use the newly enhanced ->dirty_inode() super block operation to deal with atime updates, rather than piggy backing that code into ->write_inode() as is currently done. The net result is a simplification of the code in various places and a reduction of the number of gfs2_dinode_out() calls since this is now implied by ->dirty_inode(). Some of the mark_inode_dirty() calls have been moved under glocks in order to take advantage of then being able to avoid locking in ->dirty_inode() when we already have suitable locks. One consequence is that generic_write_end() now correctly deals with file size updates, so that we do not need a separate check for that afterwards. This also, indirectly, means that fdatasync should work correctly on GFS2 - the current code always syncs the metadata whether it needs to or not. Has survived testing with postmark (with and without atime) and also fsx. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* GFS2: reserve more blocks for transactionsBenjamin Marzinski2010-09-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Some of the functions in GFS2 were not reserving space in the transaction for the resource group header and the resource groups bitblocks that get added when you do allocation. GFS2 now makes sure to reserve space for the resource group header and either all the bitblocks in the resource group, or one for each block that it may allocate, whichever is smaller using the new gfs2_rg_blocks() inline function.

* remove inode_setattrChristoph Hellwig2010-08-091-6/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers. This moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence. In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate so it was left out in the opencoded variant: spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs, which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.

* sanitize xattr handler prototypesChristoph Hellwig2009-12-161-43/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr handler methods. This allows using the same methods for multiple handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying attribute. With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch. Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later, e.g. cifs.

| | | | | | | | | To prepare for support for caching of ACLs, this cleans up the GFS2 ACL support by pushing the xattr code back into xattr.c and changing the acl_get function into one which only returns ACLs so that we can drop the caching function into it shortly.
