* ext4: Clarify the locking details in mballocAneesh Kumar K.V2009-09-092-8/+6

* ext4: check for need init flag in ext4_mb_load_buddyAneesh Kumar K.V2009-09-091-21/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We should check for need init flag with the group's alloc_sem held, to make sure while we are loading the buddy cache and holding a reference to it, a file system resize can't add new blocks to same group. The patch also drops the need init flag check in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() because doing the check without holding alloc_sem is racy.

* ext4: Make non-journal fsync work properlyFrank Mayhar2009-09-091-14/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Teach ext4_write_inode() and ext4_do_update_inode() about non-journal mode: If we're not using a journal, ext4_write_inode() now calls ext4_do_update_inode() (after getting the iloc via ext4_get_inode_loc()) with a new "do_sync" parameter. If that parameter is nonzero _and_ we're not using a journal, ext4_do_update_inode() calls sync_dirty_buffer() instead of ext4_handle_dirty_metadata(). This problem was found in power-fail testing, checking the amount of loss of files and blocks after a power failure when using fsync() and when not using fsync(). It turned out that using fsync() was actually worse than not doing so, possibly because it increased the likelihood that the inodes would remain unflushed and would therefore be lost at the power failure.

* ext4: Assure that metadata blocks are written during fsync in no journal modeTheodore Ts'o2009-09-122-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | When there is no journal present, we must attach buffer heads associated with extent tree and indirect blocks to the inode's mapping->private_list via mark_buffer_dirty_inode() so that ext4_sync_file() --- which is called to service fsync() and fdatasync() system calls --- can write out the inode's metadata blocks by calling sync_mapping_buffers().

* ext4: Use bforget() in no journal mode for ext4_journal_{forget,revoke}()Theodore Ts'o2009-09-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When ext4 is using a journal, a metadata block which is deallocated must be passed into the journal layer so it can be dropped from the current transaction and/or revoked. This is done by calling the functions ext4_journal_forget() and ext4_journal_revoke(), which call jbd2_journal_forget(), and jbd2_journal_revoke(), respectively. Since the jbd2_journal_forget() and jbd2_journal_revoke() call bforget(), if ext4 is not using a journal, ext4_journal_forget() and ext4_journal_revoke() must call bforget() to avoid a dirty metadata block overwriting a block after it has been reallocated and reused for another inode's data block.

* ext4: Remove unneeded BUG_ON() in ext4_move_extents()Akira Fujita2009-09-051-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | The ext4_move_extents() functions checks with BUG_ON() whether the exchanged blocks count accords with request blocks count. But, if the target range (orig_start + len) includes sparse block(s), 'moved_len' (exchanged blocks count) does not agree with 'len' (request blocks count), since sparse block is not counted in 'moved_len'. This causes us to hit the BUG_ON(), even though the function succeeded. Signed-off-by: Akira Fujita <a-fujita@rs.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
* ext4: Fix wrong comparisons in mext_check_arguments()Akira Fujita2009-09-161-19/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | The mext_check_arguments() function in move_extents.c has wrong comparisons. orig_start which is passed from user-space is block unit, but i_size of inode is byte unit, therefore the checks do not work fine. This mis-check leads to the overflow of 'len' and then hits BUG_ON() in ext4_move_extents(). The patch fixes this issue.

* ext4: fix cache flush in ext4_sync_fileChristoph Hellwig2009-09-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to flush the write cache unconditionally in ->fsync, otherwise writes into already allocated blocks can get lost.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | To solve a lock inversion problem, we implement part of the range_cyclic algorithm in ext4_da_writepages(). (See commit 2acf2c26 for more details.) As part of that change wbc->range_start was modified by ext4's writepages function, which causes its callers to get confused since they aren't expecting the filesystem to modify it.

* ext4: Add feature set check helper for mount & remount pathsEric Sandeen2009-08-181-42/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A user reported that although his root ext4 filesystem was mounting fine, other filesystems would not mount, with the: "Filesystem with huge files cannot be mounted RDWR without CONFIG_LBDAF" error on his 32-bit box built without CONFIG_LBDAF. This is because the test at mount time for this situation was not being re-checked on remount, and the normal boot process makes an ro->rw transition, so this was being missed. Refactor to make a common helper function to test the filesystem features against the type of mount request (RO vs. RW) so that we stay consistent.

* simplify some logic in ext4_mb_normalize_requestEric Sandeen2009-08-171-9/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While reading through some of the mballoc code it seems that a couple spots in the size normalization function could be streamlined. The test for non-overlapping PAs can be or'd for the start & end conditions, and the tests for adjacent PAs can be else-if'd - it's essentially independently testing: if (A + B <= C) ... if (A > C) ...

There's no reason to have it in a separate function in a separate file as far as I can tell, it just obfuscates what's really going on.

* ext4: Fix possible deadlock between ext4_truncate() and ext4_get_blocks()Jan Kara2009-08-173-7/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During truncate we are sometimes forced to start a new transaction as the amount of blocks to be journaled is both quite large and hard to predict. So far we restarted a transaction while holding i_data_sem and that violates lock ordering because i_data_sem ranks below a transaction start (and it can lead to a real deadlock with ext4_get_blocks() mapping blocks in some page while having a transaction open). We fix the problem by dropping the i_data_sem before restarting the transaction and acquire it afterwards. It's slightly subtle that this works: 1) By the time ext4_truncate() is called, all the page cache for the truncated part of the file is dropped so get_block() should not be called on it (we only have to invalidate extent cache after we reacquire i_data_sem because some extent from not-truncated part could extend also into the part we are going to truncate). 2) Writes, migrate or defrag hold i_mutex so they are stopped for all the time of the truncate.

* ext4: Avoid group preallocation for closed filesTheodore Ts'o2009-09-182-2/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the group preallocation code tries to find a large (512) free block from which to do per-cpu group allocation for small files. The problem with this scheme is that it leaves the filesystem horribly fragmented. In the worst case, if the filesystem is unmounted and remounted (after a system shutdown, for example) we forget the fact that wee were using a particular (now-partially filled) 512 block extent. So the next time we try to allocate space for a small file, we will find *another* completely free 512 block chunk to allocate small files. Given that there are 32,768 blocks in a block group, after 64 iterations of "mount, write one 4k file in a directory, unmount", the block group will have 64 files, each separated by 511 blocks, and the block group will no longer have any free 512 completely free chunks of blocks for group preallocation space. So if we try to allocate blocks for a file that has been closed, such that we know the final size of the file, and the filesystem is not busy, avoid using group preallocation.

* ext4: Fix bugs in mballoc's stream allocation modeTheodore Ts'o2009-08-092-13/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic around sbi->s_mb_last_group and sbi->s_mb_last_start was all screwed up. These fields were getting unconditionally all the time, set even when stream allocation had not taken place, and if they were being used when the file was smaller than s_mb_stream_request, which is when the allocation should _not_ be doing stream allocation. Fix this by determining whether or not we stream allocation should take place once, in ext4_mb_group_or_file(), and setting a flag which gets used in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and ext4_mb_use_best_found(). This simplifies the code and assures that we are consistently using (or not using) the stream allocation logic. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

* ext4: More buffer head reference leaksCurt Wohlgemuth2009-07-172-5/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After the patch I posted last week regarding buffer head ref leaks in no-journal mode, I looked at all the code that uses buffer heads and searched for more potential leaks. The patch below fixes the issues I found; these can occur even when a journal is present. The change to inode.c fixes a double release if ext4_journal_get_create_access() fails. The changes to namei.c are more complicated. add_dirent_to_buf() will release the input buffer head EXCEPT when it returns -ENOSPC. There are some callers of this routine that don't always do the brelse() in the event that -ENOSPC is returned. Unfortunately, to put this fix into ext4_add_entry() required capturing the return value of make_indexed_dir() and add_dirent_to_buf().

| | | | | | | | Due to on disk corruption, it can happen that journal is too short. Fail to load it in such case so that we don't oops somewhere later. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

* ext4: Fix memory leak fix when mounting an ext4 filesystemAneesh Kumar K.V2009-07-171-19/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The allocation of the ext4_group_info array was moved to a new function ext4_mb_add_group_info() in commit 5f21b0e6 so that online resize would use a common (and correct) codepath. Unfortunately, the call to the new ext4_mb_add_group_info() function was added without removing the code which originally allocated the array. This caused a memory leak each time an ext4 filesystem was mounted. The fix is simple; remove the code that did the original allocation, since it is no longer needed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | wb_clear_pending AFAIKS should not be called after the item has been put on the list, except by the worker threads. It could lead to the situation where the refcount is decremented below 0 and cause lots of problems. Presumably the !wb_has_dirty_io case is not a common one, so it can be discovered when the thread wakes up to check? Also add a comment in bdi_work_clear.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By the time bdi_work_on_stack gets evaluated again in bdi_work_free, it can already have been deallocated and used for something else in the !on stack case, giving a false positive in this test and causing corruption.
