2015-07-23fs: Remove ext3 filesystem driverJan Kara
The functionality of ext3 is fully supported by ext4 driver. Major distributions (SUSE, RedHat) already use ext4 driver to handle ext3 filesystems for quite some time. There is some ugliness in mm resulting from jbd cleaning buffers in a dirty page without cleaning page dirty bit and also support for buffer bouncing in the block layer when stable pages are required is there only because of jbd. So let's remove the ext3 driver. This saves us some 28k lines of duplicated code. Acked-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

We could have left percpu_counter_init() alone and added percpu_counter_init_gfp(); however, the number of users isn't that high and introducing _gfp variants to all percpu data structures would be quite ugly, so let's just do the conversion. This is the one with the most users. Other percpu data structures are a lot easier to convert. This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

2014-05-22ext3: Fix deadlock in data=journal mode when fs is frozenJan Kara
When ext3 is used in data=journal mode, syncing filesystem makes sure all the data is committed in the journal but the data doesn't have to be checkpointed. ext3_freeze() then takes care of checkpointing all the data so all buffer heads are clean but pages can still have dangling dirty bits. So when flusher thread comes later when filesystem is frozen, it tries to write back dirty pages, ext3_journalled_writepage() tries to start a transaction and hangs waiting for frozen fs causing a deadlock because a holder of s_umount semaphore may be waiting for flusher thread to complete. The fix is luckily relatively easy. We don't have to start a transaction in ext3_journalled_writepage() when a page is just dirty (and doesn't have PageChecked set) because in that case all buffers should be already mapped (mapping must happen before writing a buffer to the journal) and it is enough to write them out. This optimization also solves the deadlock because block_write_full_page() will just find out there's no buffer to write and do nothing. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

2014-04-03mm + fs: store shadow entries in page cacheJohannes Weiner
Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point, reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty. Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check for this flag before installing shadow pages.

2014-03-13fs: push sync_filesystem() down to the file system's remount_fs()Theodore Ts'o
Previously, the no-op "mount -o mount /dev/xxx" operation when the file system is already mounted read-write causes an implied, unconditional syncfs(). This seems pretty stupid, and it's certainly documented or guaraunteed to do this, nor is it particularly useful, except in the case where the file system was mounted rw and is getting remounted read-only. However, it's possible that there might be some file systems that are actually depending on this behavior. In most file systems, it's probably fine to only call sync_filesystem() when transitioning from read-write to read-only, and there are some file systems where this is not needed at all (for example, for a pseudo-filesystem or something like romfs).

2014-03-12ext3: Speedup WB_SYNC_ALL passJan Kara
When doing filesystem wide sync, there's no need to force transaction commit separately for each inode because ext3_sync_fs() takes care of forcing commit at the end. Most of the time this slowness doesn't manifest because previous WB_SYNC_NONE writeback doesn't leave much to write but when there are processes aggressively creating new files and several filesystems to sync, the sync slowness can be noticeable. In the following test script sync(1) takes around 6 minutes when there are two ext3 filesystems mounted on a standard SATA drive. After this patch sync is about twice as fast in the default data=ordered mode. For data=writeback mode we have even bigger speedup. function run_writers { for (( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )); do mkdir $1/dir$i for (( j = 0; j < 40000; j++ )); do dd if=/dev/zero of=$1/dir$i/$j bs=4k count=4 &>/dev/null done & done } for dir in "$@"; do run_writers $dir done sleep 40 time sync Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
