* ext4: find the group descriptors on a 1k-block bigalloc,meta_bg filesystemDarrick J. Wong2014-05-121-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | On a filesystem with a 1k block size, the group descriptors live in block 2, not block 1. If the filesystem has bigalloc,meta_bg set, however, the calculation of the group descriptor table location does not take this into account and returns the wrong block number. Fix the calculation to return the correct value for this case. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

* ext4: rename uninitialized extents to unwrittenLukas Czerner2014-04-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently in ext4 there is quite a mess when it comes to naming unwritten extents. Sometimes we call it uninitialized and sometimes we refer to it as unwritten. The right name for the extent which has been allocated but does not contain any written data is _unwritten_. Other file systems are using this name consistently, even the buffer head state refers to it as unwritten. We need to fix this confusion in ext4. This commit changes every reference to an uninitialized extent (meaning allocated but unwritten) to unwritten extent. This includes comments, function names and variable names. It even covers abbreviation of the word uninitialized (such as uninit) and some misspellings. This commit does not change any of the code paths at all. This has been confirmed by comparing md5sums of the assembly code of each object file after all the function names were stripped from it.

* ext4: initialize multi-block allocator before checking block descriptorsAzat Khuzhin2014-04-071-24/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With EXT4FS_DEBUG ext4_count_free_clusters() will call ext4_read_block_bitmap() without s_group_info initialized, so we need to initialize multi-block allocator before. And dependencies that must be solved, to allow this: - multi-block allocator needs in group descriptors - need to install s_op before initializing multi-block allocator, because in ext4_mb_init_backend() new inode is created. - initialize number of group desc blocks (s_gdb_count) otherwise number of clusters returned by ext4_free_clusters_after_init() is not correct.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds new interfaces to create and destory cache, ext4_xattr_create_cache() and ext4_xattr_destroy_cache(), and remove the cache creation and destory calls from ex4_init_xattr() and ext4_exitxattr() in fs/ext4/xattr.c. fs/ext4/super.c has been changed so that when a filesystem is mounted a cache is allocated and attched to its ext4_sb_info structure. fs/mbcache.c has been changed so that only one slab allocator is allocated and used by all mbcache structures.

* fs: push sync_filesystem() down to the file system's remount_fs()Theodore Ts'o2014-03-131-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the filesystem doesn't support extents (like in ext2/3 compatibility modes), there is no need to reserve any clusters. Space estimates for writing are exact, hole punching doesn't need new metadata, and there are no unwritten extents to convert. This fixes a problem when filesystem still having some free space when accessed with a native ext2/3 driver suddently reports ENOSPC when accessed with ext4 driver.

This replaces opencoded and less efficient code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO) and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO. The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating with the filesystems. Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara. I'm not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion.

* | | ext4: allow specifying external journal by pathname mount optionEric Sandeen2013-08-281-3/+44

And since boot-time enumeration can change, device number changes aren't unusual. The current mechanism to update the journal location is by passing in a mount option w/ a new devnum, but that's a hassle; it's a manual approach, fixing things after the fact. Adding a mount option, "-o journal_path=/dev/$DEVICE" would help, since then we can do i.e. # mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/$JOURNAL_LABEL ... and it'll mount even if the devnum has changed, as shown here: # losetup /dev/loop0 journalfile # mke2fs -L mylabel-journal -O journal_dev /dev/loop0 # mkfs.ext4 -L mylabel -J device=/dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1 Change the journal device number: # losetup -d /dev/loop0 # losetup /dev/loop1 journalfile And today it will fail: # mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so # dmesg | tail -n 1 [17343.240702] EXT4-fs (sdb1): error: couldn't read superblock of external journal But with this new mount option, we can specify the new path: # mount -o journal_path=/dev/loop1 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test # (which does update the encoded device number, incidentally): # umount /dev/sdb1 # dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdb1 | grep "Journal device" dumpe2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010) Journal device: 0x0701 But best of all we can just always mount by journal-path, and it'll always work: # mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/mylabel-journal /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test # So the journal_path option can be specified in fstab, and as long as the disk is available somewhere, and findable by label (or by UUID), we can mount.

First of all, both cases of incorrect mount options, "data=journal,delalloc" and "data=journal,dioread_nolock" result in the same error message. Secondly, the problem above isn't solved for remount option: the mismatched parameter is simply ignored. Moreover, ext4_msg states that remount with options "data=journal,delalloc" succeeded, which is not true. To fix it up, I added a simple check after parse_options() call to ensure that data=journal and delalloc/dioread_nolock parameters are not present at the same time.

* ext4: improve extent cache shrink mechanism to avoid to burn CPU timeZheng Liu2013-07-011-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now we maintain an proper in-order LRU list in ext4 to reclaim entries from extent status tree when we are under heavy memory pressure. For keeping this order, a spin lock is used to protect this list. But this lock burns a lot of CPU time. We can use the following steps to trigger it. % cd /dev/shm % dd if=/dev/zero of=ext4-img bs=1M count=2k % mkfs.ext4 ext4-img % mount -t ext4 -o loop ext4-img /mnt % cd /mnt % for ((i=0;i<160;i++)); do truncate -s 64g $i; done % for ((i=0;i<160;i++)); do cp $i /dev/null &; done % perf record -a -g % perf report This commit tries to fix this problem. Now a new member called i_touch_when is added into ext4_inode_info to record the last access time for an inode. Meanwhile we never need to keep a proper in-order LRU list. So this can avoid to burns some CPU time. When we try to reclaim some entries from extent status tree, we use list_sort() to get a proper in-order list. Then we traverse this list to discard some entries. In ext4_sb_info, we use s_es_last_sorted to record the last time of sorting this list. When we traverse the list, we skip the inode that is newer than this time, and move this inode to the tail of LRU list. When the head of the list is newer than s_es_last_sorted, we will sort the LRU list again. In this commit, we break the loop if s_extent_cache_cnt == 0 because that means that all extents in extent status tree have been reclaimed. Meanwhile in this commit, ext4_es_{un}register_shrinker()'s prototype is changed to save a local variable in these functions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently in ENOSPC condition when writing into unwritten space, or punching a hole, we might need to split the extent and grow extent tree. However since we can not allocate any new metadata blocks we'll have to zero out unwritten part of extent or punched out part of extent, or in the worst case return ENOSPC even though use actually does not allocate any space. Also in delalloc path we do reserve metadata and data blocks for the time we're going to write out, however metadata block reservation is very tricky especially since we expect that logical connectivity implies physical connectivity, however that might not be the case and hence we might end up allocating more metadata blocks than previously reserved. So in future, metadata reservation checks should be removed since we can not assure that we do not under reserve. And this is where reserved space comes into the picture. When mounting the file system we slice off a little bit of the file system space (2% or 4096 clusters, whichever is smaller) which can be then used for the cases mentioned above to prevent costly zeroout, or unexpected ENOSPC. The number of reserved clusters can be set via sysfs, however it can never be bigger than number of free clusters in the file system. Note that this patch fixes the failure of xfstest 274 as expected.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently in when getting the block group number for a particular block in ext4_block_in_group() we're using ext4_get_group_no_and_offset() which uses do_div() to get the block group and the remainer which is offset within the group. We don't need all of that in ext4_block_in_group() as we only need to figure out the group number. This commit changes ext4_block_in_group() to calculate group number directly. This shows as a big improvement with regards to cpu utilization. Measuring fallocate -l 15T on fresh file system with perf showed that 23% of cpu time was spend in the ext4_get_group_no_and_offset(). With this change it completely disappears from the list only bumping the occurrence of ext4_init_block_bitmap() which is the biggest user of ext4_block_in_group() by 4%. As the result of this change on my system the fallocate call was approx. 10% faster. However since there is '-g' option in mkfs which allow us setting different groups size (mostly for developers) I've introduced new per file system flag whether we have a standard block group size or not.

| * ext4: use atomic64_t for the per-flexbg free_clusters countTheodore Ts'o2013-03-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A user who was using a 8TB+ file system and with a very large flexbg size (> 65536) could cause the atomic_t used in the struct flex_groups to overflow. This was detected by PaX security patchset: http://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3289&p=12551#p12551 This bug was introduced in commit 9f24e4208f7e, so it's been around since 2.6.30. :-( Fix this by using an atomic64_t for struct orlav_stats's free_clusters.

* | fs: Readd the fs module aliases.Eric W. Biederman2013-03-121-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I had assumed that the only use of module aliases for filesystems prior to "fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules." was in request_module. It turns out I was wrong. At least mkinitcpio in Arch linux uses these aliases. So readd the preexising aliases, to keep from breaking userspace. Userspace eventually will have to follow and use the same aliases the kernel does. So at some point we may be delete these aliases without problems. However that day is not today.
