| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | part 3: now we have everything to get nfs_path() just by dentry - just follow to (disconnected) root and pick the rest of the thing there.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | part 2: make sure that disconnected roots have corresponding mnt_devname values stashed into them. Have nfs*_get_root() stuff a copy of devname into ->d_fsdata of the found root, provided that it is disconnected. Have ->d_release() free it when dentry goes away. Have the places where NFS uses ->d_fsdata for sillyrename (and that can *never* happen to a disconnected root - dentry will be attached to its parent) free old devname copies if they find those.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some platforms have a small amount of non-volatile storage that can be used to store information useful to diagnose the cause of a system crash. This is the generic part of a file system interface that presents information from the crash as a series of files in /dev/pstore.

I have been careful to avoid nested calls to lock_ufs and to get the lock order right with respect to other mutexes, in particular lock_super. I did not make any attempt to prove that the big kernel lock is not needed in a particular place in the code, which is very possible. The mutex has a significant performance impact, so it is only used on SMP or PREEMPT configurations. As Nick Piggin noticed, any allocation inside of the lock may end up deadlocking when we get to ufs_getfrag_block in the reclaim task, so we now use GFP_NOFS.

| | | * | | | | LSM: Pass -o remount options to the LSMEric Paris2011-03-031-0/+4

The LSM will remove options it understands from the data and the VFS will then pass the remaining options onto the underlying filesystem. This is how options like the SELinux context= work. The problem comes in that -o remount never calls into LSM code. So if you include an LSM specific option it will get passed to the filesystem and will cause the remount to fail. An example of where this is a problem is the 'seclabel' option. The SELinux LSM hook will print this word in /proc/mounts if the filesystem is being labeled using xattrs. If you pass this word on mount it will be silently stripped and ignored. But if you pass this word on remount the LSM never gets called and it will be passed to the FS. The FS doesn't know what seclabel means and thus should fail the mount. For example an ext3 fs mounted over loop # mount -o loop /tmp/fs /mnt/tmp # cat /proc/mounts | grep /mnt/tmp /dev/loop0 /mnt/tmp ext3 rw,seclabel,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=0,data=ordered 0 0 # mount -o remount /mnt/tmp mount: /mnt/tmp not mounted already, or bad option # dmesg EXT3-fs (loop0): error: unrecognized mount option "seclabel" or missing value This patch passes the remount mount options to an new LSM hook.

Because ctl_tables don't have a proc_dir_entry, we did not label /proc/sys/ inodes any more. To achieve this the /proc/sys/ inodes were marked private and private inodes were ignored by selinux. commit bbaca6c2e7ef0f663bc31be4dad7cf530f6c4962 [PATCH] selinux: enhance selinux to always ignore private inodes commit 86a71dbd3e81e8870d0f0e56b87875f57e58222b [PATCH] sysctl: hide the sysctl proc inodes from selinux Access control checks have been done by means of a special sysctl hook that was called for read/write accesses to any /proc/sys/ entry. We don't have to do this because, instead of walking the proc_dir_entry tree we can walk the dentry tree (as done in this patch). With this patch: * we don't mark /proc/sys/ inodes as private * we don't need the sysclt security hook * we walk the dentry tree to find the path to the inode. We have to strip the PID in /proc/PID/ entries that have a proc_dir_entry because selinux does not know how to label paths like '/1/net/rpc/nfsd.fh' (and defaults to 'proc_t' labeling). Selinux does know of '/net/rpc/nfsd.fh' (and applies the 'sysctl_rpc_t' label). PID stripping from the path was done implicitly in the previous code because the proc_dir_entry tree had the root in '/net' in the example from above. The dentry tree has the root in '/1'.

We currently label new inodes based on the parent and the creating process. This new behavior would also take into account the name of the new object when deciding the new label. This is not the (supposed) full path, just the last component of the path. This is very useful because creating /etc/shadow is different than creating /etc/passwd but the kernel hooks are unable to differentiate these operations. We currently require that userspace realize it is doing some difficult operation like that and than userspace jumps through SELinux hoops to get things set up correctly. This patch does not implement new behavior, that is obviously contained in a seperate SELinux patch, but it does pass the needed name down to the correct LSM hook. If no such name exists it is fine to pass NULL. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

The lists are self contained and no log specific items outside the lists are accessed when starting or emptying the AIL lists. Hence the operation of the AIL does not require the protection of the log lock so split them out into a new AIL specific lock to reduce the amount of traffic on the log lock. This will also reduce the amount of serialisation that occurs when the gfs2_logd pushes on the AIL to move it forward. This reduces the impact of log pushing on sequential write throughput.

In write_empty_blocks(), if a page didn't have buffer_heads attached, GFS2 was always treating it as if there were no blocks allocated for that page. GFS2 now calls gfs2_block_map() to check if the blocks are allocated before writing them out.

We need to ensure that the glock count is kept correct even in the case that there is a race to add a new glock into the hash table. Also, to avoid having to wait for an RCU grace period, the glock counter can be decremented before call_rcu() is called. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

This meant that gfs2 assumed the actual usage to be the zero (or near-zero) usage values it found in the cached quotas and comparison against warn/limits never triggered a quota violation. This patch adds a new flag QDF_REFRESH that is set after a sync so that the cached quotas are forcefully refreshed from disk on a subsequent access on seeing this flag set.

Rather than update the quota file and statfs file for every single block that's stripped off in unlink function do_strip, this patch keeps track and updates them once for every layer that's stripped. This is done entirely inside the existing transaction, so there should be no risk of corruption. The other functions that deallocate blocks will be unaffected because they are using wrapper functions that do the same thing that they do today. I tested this code on my roth cluster by creating 200 files in a directory, each of which is 100MB, then on four nodes, I simultaneously deleted the files, thus competing for GFS2 resources (but different files). The commands I used were: [root@roth-01]# time for i in `seq 1 4 200` ; do rm /mnt/gfs2/bigdir/gfs2.$i; done [root@roth-02]# time for i in `seq 2 4 200` ; do rm /mnt/gfs2/bigdir/gfs2.$i; done [root@roth-03]# time for i in `seq 3 4 200` ; do rm /mnt/gfs2/bigdir/gfs2.$i; done [root@roth-05]# time for i in `seq 4 4 200` ; do rm /mnt/gfs2/bigdir/gfs2.$i; done The performance increase was significant: roth-01 roth-02 roth-03 roth-05 --------- --------- --------- --------- old: real 0m34.027 0m25.021s 0m23.906s 0m35.646s new: real 0m22.379s 0m24.362s 0m24.133s 0m18.562s Total time spent deleting: old: 118.6s new: 89.4 For this particular case, this showed a 25% performance increase for GFS2 unlinks.

It does this in order to ensure that the flags on the inode are uptodate, but since it will only mark atime for a future update, an exclusive lock is not required here (one will be taken later when the actual update is performed). Also, the lock can be skipped when the mount is marked noatime in addition to the original check which only looked at the noatime flag for the inode itself. This should increase the scalability of the mmap call when multiple nodes are all mmaping the same file.

One is to look at using SLAB_RCU, and another is to look at using a per-cpu counter for the per-sb glock counter, since that is touched twice in the lifetime of each glock (but only used at umount time).
