jfs: fix a couple races

2013-06-07T19:46:48+00:00

commit 73aaa22d5ffb2630456bac2f9a4ed9b81d0d7271 upstream.

This patch fixes races uncovered by xfstests testcase 068.

One race is the result of jfs_sync() trying to write a sync point to the
journal after it has been frozen (or possibly in the process). Since
freezing sync's the journal, there is no need to write a sync point so
we simply want to return.

The second involves jfs_write_inode() being called on a deleted inode.
It calls jfs_flush_journal which is held up by the jfs_commit thread
doing the final iput on the same deleted inode, which itself is
waiting for the I_SYNC flag to be cleared. jfs_write_inode need not
do anything when i_nlink is zero, which is the easy fix.

fs: pass exact type of data dirties to ->dirty_inode

2011-05-27T11:04:40+00:00

Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or
anything else, so that the filesystem can track internally if it
needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not.

This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet.  I plan
to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting
this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid
tree interdependencies.

Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block.  That
has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.

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().

get rid of nobh_write_begin_newtrunc

2010-08-09T20:47:30+00:00

Move the call to vmtruncate to get rid of accessive blocks to the only
remaining caller and rename the non-truncating version to nobh_write_begin.

Get rid of the superflous file argument to it while we're at it.

sort out blockdev_direct_IO variants

2010-08-09T20:47:29+00:00

Move the call to vmtruncate to get rid of accessive blocks to the callers
in prepearation of the new truncate calling sequence.  This was only done
for DIO_LOCKING filesystems, so the __blockdev_direct_IO_newtrunc variant
was not needed anyway.  Get rid of blockdev_direct_IO_no_locking and
its _newtrunc variant while at it as just opencoding the two additional
paramters is shorted than the name suffix.

pass writeback_control to ->write_inode

2010-03-05T18:25:52+00:00

This gives the filesystem more information about the writeback that
is happening.  Trond requested this for the NFS unstable write handling,
and other filesystems might benefit from this too by beeing able to
distinguish between the different callers in more detail.
