* | | Merge branch 'driver-core-next' into Linux 3.2Greg Kroah-Hartman2012-01-061-1/+31
|\ \ \ | |/ / |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This resolves the conflict in the arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/s3c6400.c file, and it fixes the build error in the arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c file, that the merge did not catch. The microcode_core.c patch was provided by Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> who was invaluable in the merge issues involved with the large sysdev removal process in the driver-core tree.

| * | debugfs: add tools to printk 32-bit registersAlessandro Rubini2011-11-181-1/+31
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some debugfs file I deal with are mostly blocks of registers, i.e. lines of the form "<name> = 0x<value>". Some files are only registers, some include registers blocks among other material. This patch introduces data structures and functions to deal with both cases. I expect more users of this over time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a d_prune dentry operation that is called by the VFS prior to pruning (i.e. unhashing and killing) a hashed dentry from the dcache. Wrap dentry_lru_del() and use the new _prune() helper in the cases where we are about to unhash and kill the dentry. This will be used by Ceph to maintain a flag indicating whether the complete contents of a directory are contained in the dcache, allowing it to satisfy lookups and readdir without addition server communication.

| * | | ext4: remove deprecated oldallocLukas Czerner2011-10-081-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a long time now orlov is the default block allocator in the ext4. It performs better than the old one and no one seems to claim otherwise so we can safely drop it and make oldalloc and orlov mount option deprecated. This is a part of the effort to reduce number of ext4 options hence the test matrix. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Acl and user_xattr mount options are no longer needed since those features are enabled by default if configured in (seee commit ea6633369458992241599c9d9ebadffaeddec164). We can not easily deprecate mount options itself (since it is probably too early), but we can remove it from documentation first.

| * | | ext4: improve handling of conflicting mount optionsTheodore Ts'o2011-09-031-3/+5
| | |/ | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the user explicitly specifies conflicting mount options for delalloc or dioread_nolock and data=journal, fail the mount, instead of printing a warning and continuing (since many user's won't look at dmesg and notice the warning). Also, print a single warning that data=journal implies that delayed allocation is not on by default (since it's not supported), and furthermore that O_DIRECT is not supported. Improve the text in Documentation/filesystems/ext4.txt so this is clear there as well. Similarly, if the dioread_nolock mount option is specified when the file system block size != PAGE_SIZE, fail the mount instead of printing a warning message and ignoring the mount option.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

Turns out using fiemap in things like cp cause more problems than it solves, so lets try and give userspace an interface that doesn't suck. We need to match solaris here, and the definitions are *o* If /whence/ is SEEK_HOLE, the offset of the start of the next hole greater than or equal to the supplied offset is returned. The definition of a hole is provided near the end of the DESCRIPTION. *o* If /whence/ is SEEK_DATA, the file pointer is set to the start of the next non-hole file region greater than or equal to the supplied offset. So in the generic case the entire file is data and there is a virtual hole at the end. That means we will just return i_size for SEEK_HOLE and will return the same offset for SEEK_DATA. This is how Solaris does it so we have to do it the same way. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
| * | | | vfs: increase shrinker batch sizeDave Chinner2011-07-201-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the per-sb shrinker is responsible for shrinking 2 or more caches, increase the batch size to keep econmies of scale for shrinking each cache. Increase the shrinker batch size to 1024 objects. To allow for a large increase in batch size, add a conditional reschedule to prune_icache_sb() so that we don't hold the LRU spin lock for too long. This mirrors the behaviour of the __shrink_dcache_sb(), and allows us to increase the batch size without needing to worry about problems caused by long lock hold times. To ensure that filesystems using the per-sb shrinker callouts don't cause problems, document that the object freeing method must reschedule appropriately inside loops.

Rather than perpetuate the multipurpose shrinker callback API (i.e. nr_to_scan == 0 meaning "tell me how many objects freeable in the cache), two operations will be added. The first will return the number of objects that are freeable, the second is the actual shrinker call.

| * | | | UBIFS: switch self-check knobs to debugfsArtem Bityutskiy2011-07-041-26/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UBIFS has many built-in self-check functions which can be enabled using the debug_chks module parameter or the corresponding sysfs file (/sys/module/ubifs/parameters/debug_chks). However, this is not flexible enough because it is not per-filesystem. This patch moves this to debugfs interfaces. We already have debugfs support, so this patch just adds more debugfs files. While looking at debugfs support I've noticed that it is racy WRT file-system unmount, and added a TODO entry for that. This problem has been there for long time and it is quite standard debugfs PITA. The plan is to fix this later. This patch is simple, but it is large because it changes many places where we check if a particular type of checks is enabled or disabled. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
