* UBIFS: set write-buffer timout to 3-5 secondsArtem Bityutskiy2009-07-051-13/+4
| | | | | | | This patch cleans up write-buffer timeout initialization and sets it to 3-5 interval. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
* UBIFS: slightly optimize write-buffer timer usageArtem Bityutskiy2009-07-051-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the following minor optimization: 1. If write-buffer does not use the timer, indicate it with the wbuf->no_timer variable, instead of using the wbuf->softlimit variable. This is better because wbuf->softlimit is of ktime_t type, and the ktime_to_ns function contains 64-bit multiplication. 2. Do not call the 'hrtimer_cancel()' function for write-buffers which do not use timers. 3. Do not cancel the timer in 'ubifs_put_super()' because the synchronization function does this. This patch also removes a confusing comment. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
* UBIFS: improve debugging messagedArtem Bityutskiy2009-07-051-10/+16
| | | | | | | 1. Make the I/O debugging message print the journal head number. 2. Add prints to timer functions. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
* UBIFS: fix integer overflow warningAdrian Hunter2009-07-051-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the following warning: fs/ubifs/io.c: In function 'ubifs_wbuf_init': fs/ubifs/io.c:860: warning: integer overflow in expression And limit maximum hrtimer delta to ULONG_MAX because the argument is 'unsigned long'.

* UBIFS: start using hrtimersArtem Bityutskiy2009-06-081-13/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UBIFS uses timers for write-buffer write-back. It is not crucial for us to write-back exactly on time. We are fine to write-back a little earlier or later. And this means we may optimize UBIFS timer so that it could be groped with a close timer event, so that the CPU would not be waken up just to do the write back. This is optimization to lessen power consumption, which is important in embedded devices UBIFS is used for. hrtimers have a nice feature: they are effectively range timers, and we may defind the soft and hard limits for it. Standard timers do not have these feature. They may only be made deferrable, but this means there is effectively no hard limit. So, we will better use hrtimers.

* UBIFS: fix no_chk_data_crcArtem Bityutskiy2009-01-271-8/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When data CRC checking is disabled, UBIFS returns incorrect return code from the 'try_read_node()' function (0 instead of 1, which means CRC error), which make the caller re-read the data node again, but using a different code patch, so the second read is fine. Thus, we read the same node twice. And the result of this is that UBIFS is slower with no_chk_data_crc option than it is with chk_data_crc option. This patches fixes the problem.

* UBIFS: check data CRC when in error stateArtem Bityutskiy2008-09-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | When UBIFS switches to R/O mode because of an error, it is reasonable to enable data CRC checking. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
* UBIFS: add no_chk_data_crc mount optionAdrian Hunter2008-09-301-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | UBIFS read performance can be improved by skipping the CRC check when data nodes are read. This option can be used if the underlying media is considered to be highly reliable. Note that CRCs are always checked for metadata. Read speed on Arm platform with OneNAND goes from 19 MiB/s to 27 MiB/s with data CRC checking disabled.

* UBIFS: make ubifs_ro_mode() not inlineAdrian Hunter2008-08-131-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | We use ubifs_ro_mode() quite a lot, and not in fast-path, so there is no reason to blow the code up by having it inlined. Also, we usually want R/O mode change to be seen to other CPUs as soon as possible, so when we make this a function call, we will automatically have a memory barrier.
