fat: Fix statfs->f_namelen

2011-04-12T12:12:50+00:00

pathconf(, _PC_NAME_MAX) is too small for long Unicode filename on fat.

255 as max filename size on fat is Unicode UTF-16 characters.
it's not byte size.

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16469

To fix it, this returns "len * NLS_MAX_CHARSET_SIZE" instead.

exportfs: Return the minimum required handle size

2011-03-14T13:15:28+00:00

The exportfs encode handle function should return the minimum required
handle size. This helps user to find out the handle size by passing 0
handle size in the first step and then redoing to the call again with
the returned handle size value.

block: remove per-queue plugging

2011-03-10T07:52:07+00:00

Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,
and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.
So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops->sync_page().

switch fat to ->s_d_op, close exportfs races there

2011-01-13T01:02:43+00:00

don't bother with lock_super() in fat_fill_super() callers, while
we are at it - there won't be any concurrency anyway.

fs: dcache reduce branches in lookup path

2011-01-07T06:50:28+00:00

Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry
flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them.
This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup
situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we
have d_op but not the particular operation.

Patched with:

git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i

fs: icache RCU free inodes

2011-01-07T06:50:26+00:00

RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:

- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
  permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
  to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
  the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
  page lock to follow page->mapping.

The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.

In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.

The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

BKL: Remove BKL from fat

2010-10-04T19:10:45+00:00

The lock_kernel in fat_put_super is not needed because
it only protects the super block itself and we know that
no other thread can reach it because we are about to
kfree the object.

In the two fill_super functions, this converts the locking
to use lock_super like elsewhere in the fat code. This
is probably not needed either, but is consistent and puts
us on the safe side.
