nilfs2: use mark_buffer_dirty to mark btnode or meta data dirty

2011-05-10T13:21:57+00:00

This replaces nilfs_mdt_mark_buffer_dirty and nilfs_btnode_mark_dirty
macros with mark_buffer_dirty and gets rid of nilfs_mark_buffer_dirty,
an own mark buffer dirty function.

nilfs2: always set back pointer to host inode in mapping->host

2011-05-10T13:21:57+00:00

In the current nilfs, page cache for btree nodes and meta data files
do not set a valid back pointer to the host inode in mapping->host.

This will change it so that every address space in nilfs uses
mapping->host to hold its host inode.

nilfs2: get rid of NILFS_I_NILFS

2011-05-10T13:21:56+00:00

This replaces all references of NILFS_I_NILFS(inode)->ns_bdev with
inode->i_sb->s_bdev and unfolds remaining uses of NILFS_I_NILFS inline
function.

Before 2.6.37, referring to a nilfs object from inodes needed a
conditional judgement, and NILFS_I_NILFS was helpful to simplify it.
But now we can simply do it by going through a super block instance
like inode->i_sb->s_fs_info.

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().

mm: prevent concurrent unmap_mapping_range() on the same inode

2011-02-24T03:52:52+00:00

Michael Leun reported that running parallel opens on a fuse filesystem
can trigger a "kernel BUG at mm/truncate.c:475"

Gurudas Pai reported the same bug on NFS.

The reason is, unmap_mapping_range() is not prepared for more than
one concurrent invocation per inode.  For example:

  thread1: going through a big range, stops in the middle of a vma and
     stores the restart address in vm_truncate_count.

  thread2: comes in with a small (e.g. single page) unmap request on
     the same vma, somewhere before restart_address, finds that the
     vma was already unmapped up to the restart address and happily
     returns without doing anything.

Another scenario would be two big unmap requests, both having to
restart the unmapping and each one setting vm_truncate_count to its
own value.  This could go on forever without any of them being able to
finish.

Truncate and hole punching already serialize with i_mutex.  Other
callers of unmap_mapping_range() do not, and it's difficult to get
i_mutex protection for all callers.  In particular ->d_revalidate(),
which calls invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in fuse, may be called
with or without i_mutex.

This patch adds a new mutex to 'struct address_space' to prevent
running multiple concurrent unmap_mapping_range() on the same mapping.

[ We'll hopefully get rid of all this with the upcoming mm
  preemptibility series by Peter Zijlstra, the "mm: Remove i_mmap_mutex
  lockbreak" patch in particular.  But that is for 2.6.39 ]

nilfs2: unfold nilfs_dat_inode function

2011-01-10T05:38:39+00:00

nilfs_dat_inode function was a wrapper to switch between normal dat
inode and gcdat, a clone of the dat inode for garbage collection.

This function got obsolete when the gcdat inode was removed, and now
we can access the dat inode directly from a nilfs object.  So, we will
unfold the wrapper and remove it.

nilfs2: add routines to roll back state of DAT file

2010-10-23T00:24:37+00:00

This adds optional function to metadata files which makes a copy of
bmap, page caches, and b-tree node cache, and rolls back to the copy
as needed.

This enhancement is intended to displace gcdat inode that provides a
similar function in a different way.

In this patch, nilfs_shadow_map structure is added to store a copy of
the foregoing states.  nilfs_mdt_setup_shadow_map relates this
structure to a metadata file.  And, nilfs_mdt_save_to_shadow_map() and
nilfs_mdt_restore_from_shadow_map() provides save and restore
functions respectively.  Finally, nilfs_mdt_clear_shadow_map() clears
states of nilfs_shadow_map.

The copy of b-tree node cache and page cache is made by duplicating
only dirty pages into corresponding caches in nilfs_shadow_map.  Their
restoration is done by clearing dirty pages from original caches and
by copying dirty pages back from nilfs_shadow_map.

nilfs2: add read ahead mode to nilfs_btnode_submit_block

2010-07-23T01:02:15+00:00

This adds mode argument to nilfs_btnode_submit_block() function and
allows it to issue a read-ahead request.

An optional submit_ptr argument is also added to store the actual
block address for which bio is sent.  submit_ptr is used for a series
of read-ahead requests, and helps to decide if each requested block is
continous to the previous one on disk.

nilfs2: fix buffer head leak in nilfs_btnode_submit_block

2010-07-23T01:02:15+00:00

nilfs_btnode_submit_block() refers to buffer head just before
returning from the function, but it releases the buffer head earlier
than that if nilfs_dat_translate() gets an error.

This has potential for oops in the erroneous case.  This fixes the
issue.
