[PATCH] BLOCK: Move the Ext3 device ioctl compat stuff to the Ext3 driver [try #6]

2006-09-30T18:52:29+00:00

Move the Ext3 device ioctl compat stuff from fs/compat_ioctl.c to the Ext3
driver so that the Ext3 header file doesn't need to be included.

[PATCH] BLOCK: Move common FS-specific ioctls to linux/fs.h [try #6]

2006-09-30T18:52:28+00:00

Move common FS-specific ioctls from linux/ext2_fs.h to linux/fs.h as FS_IOC_*
and FS_IOC32_* and have the users of them use those as a base.

Also move the GETFLAGS/SETFLAGS flags to linux/fs.h as FS_*_FL macros, and then
have the other users use them as a base.

[PATCH] ext3: avoid triggering ext3_error on bad NFS file handle

2006-07-31T20:28:36+00:00

The inode number out of an NFS file handle gets passed eventually to
ext3_get_inode_block() without any checking.  If ext3_get_inode_block()
allows it to trigger an error, then bad filehandles can have unpleasant
effect - ext3_error() will usually cause a forced read-only remount, or a
panic if `errors=panic' was used.

So remove the call to ext3_error there and put a matching check in
ext3/namei.c where inode numbers are read off storage.

[PATCH] ext3_fsblk_t: the rest of in-kernel filesystem blocks conversion

2006-06-25T17:01:10+00:00

Convert the ext3 in-kernel filesystem blocks to ext3_fsblk_t.  Convert the
rest of all unsigned long type in-kernel filesystem blocks to ext3_fsblk_t,
and replace the printk format string respondingly.

[PATCH] ext3_fsblk_t: filesystem, group blocks and bug fixes

2006-06-25T17:01:10+00:00

Some of the in-kernel ext3 block variable type are treated as signed 4 bytes
int type, thus limited ext3 filesystem to 8TB (4kblock size based).  While
trying to fix them, it seems quite confusing in the ext3 code where some
blocks are filesystem-wide blocks, some are group relative offsets that need
to be signed value (as -1 has special meaning).  So it seem saner to define
two types of physical blocks: one is filesystem wide blocks, another is
group-relative blocks.  The following patches clarify these two types of
blocks in the ext3 code, and fix the type bugs which limit current 32 bit ext3
filesystem limit to 8TB.

With this series of patches and the percpu counter data type changes in the mm
tree, we are able to extend exts filesystem limit to 16TB.

This work is also a pre-request for the recent >32 bit ext3 work, and makes
the kernel to able to address 48 bit ext3 block a lot easier: Simply redefine
ext3_fsblk_t from unsigned long to sector_t and redefine the format string for
ext3 filesystem block corresponding.

Two RFC with a series patches have been posted to ext2-devel list and have
been reviewed and discussed:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114722190816690&w=2

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114784919525942&w=2

Patches are tested on both 32 bit machine and 64 bit machine, <8TB ext3 and
>8TB ext3 filesystem(with the latest to be released e2fsprogs-1.39).  Tests
includes overnight fsx, tiobench, dbench and fsstress.

This patch:

Defines ext3_fsblk_t and ext3_grpblk_t, and the printk format string for
filesystem wide blocks.

This patch classifies all block group relative blocks, and ext3_fsblk_t blocks
occurs in the same function where used to be confusing before.  Also include
kernel bug fixes for filesystem wide in-kernel block variables.  There are
some fileystem wide blocks are treated as int/unsigned int type in the kernel
currently, especially in ext3 block allocation and reservation code.  This
patch fixed those bugs by converting those variables to ext3_fsblk_t(unsigned
long) type.
