ext4: Remove an unnecessary check for NULL before iput()

2014-11-26T01:01:37+00:00

The iput() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

ext4: cleanup GFP flags inside resize path

2014-11-25T18:08:04+00:00

We must use GFP_NOFS instead GFP_KERNEL inside ext4_mb_add_groupinfo
and ext4_calculate_overhead() because they are called from inside a
journal transaction. Call trace:

ioctl
 ->ext4_group_add
   ->journal_start
   ->ext4_setup_new_descs
     ->ext4_mb_add_groupinfo -> GFP_KERNEL
   ->ext4_flex_group_add
     ->ext4_update_super
       ->ext4_calculate_overhead  -> GFP_KERNEL

Merge branch 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu

2014-10-15T05:48:18+00:00

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.

This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().

Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

ext4: prepare to drop EXT4_STATE_DELALLOC_RESERVED

2014-09-04T22:07:25+00:00

The EXT4_STATE_DELALLOC_RESERVED flag was originally implemented
because it was too hard to make sure the mballoc and get_block flags
could be reliably passed down through all of the codepaths that end up
calling ext4_mb_new_blocks().

Since then, we have mb_flags passed down through most of the code
paths, so getting rid of EXT4_STATE_DELALLOC_RESERVED isn't as tricky
as it used to.

This commit plumbs in the last of what is required, and then adds a
WARN_ON check to make sure we haven't missed anything.  If this passes
a full regression test run, we can then drop
EXT4_STATE_DELALLOC_RESERVED.

ext4: fix BUG_ON in mb_free_blocks()

2014-08-23T21:47:28+00:00

If we suffer a block allocation failure (for example due to a memory
allocation failure), it's possible that we will call
ext4_discard_allocated_blocks() before we've actually allocated any
blocks.  In that case, fe_len and fe_start in ac->ac_f_ex will still
be zero, and this will result in mb_free_blocks(inode, e4b, 0, 0)
triggering the BUG_ON on mb_free_blocks():

	BUG_ON(last >= (sb->s_blocksize << 3));

Fix this by bailing out of ext4_discard_allocated_blocks() if fs_len
is zero.

Also fix a missing ext4_mb_unload_buddy() call in
ext4_discard_allocated_blocks().
