* hfsplus: Fix kfree of wrong pointers in hfsplus_fill_super() error pathSeth Forshee2011-09-152-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 6596528e391a ("hfsplus: ensure bio requests are not smaller than the hardware sectors") changed the pointers used for volume header allocations but failed to free the correct pointers in the error path path of hfsplus_fill_super() and hfsplus_read_wrapper. The second hunk came from a separate patch by Pavel Ivanov.

| * fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlersJosef Bacik2011-07-202-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| * fs: simplify the blockdev_direct_IO prototypeChristoph Hellwig2011-07-201-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Simple filesystems always pass inode->i_sb_bdev as the block device argument, and never need a end_io handler. Let's simply things for them and for my grepping activity by dropping these arguments. The only thing not falling into that scheme is ext4, which passes and end_io handler without needing special flags (yet), but given how messy the direct I/O code there is use of __blockdev_direct_IO in one instead of two out of three cases isn't going to make a large difference anyway.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Let filesystems handle waiting for direct I/O requests themselves instead of doing it beforehand. This means filesystem-specific locks to prevent new dio referenes from appearing can be held. This is important to allow generalizing i_dio_count to non-DIO_LOCKING filesystems.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hfsplus stores all metadata except for the volume headers in special inodes. While these are marked hashed and periodically written out by the flusher threads, we can't rely on that for sync. For the case of a data integrity sync the VM has life-lock avoidance code that avoids writing inodes again that are redirtied during the sync, which is something that can happen easily for hfsplus. So make sure we explicitly write out the metadata inodes at the beginning of hfsplus_sync_fs. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@tuxera.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hfsplus only actually uses the force option during remount, but it uses the full option parser with a fake superblock to do so. This means remount will fail if any nls option is set (which happens frequently with older mount tools), even if it is the same. Fix this by adding a simpler version of the parser that only parses the force option for remount. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@tuxera.com>

* | fs: icache RCU free inodesNick Piggin2011-01-071-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RCU free the struct inode. This will allow: - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must. - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking. - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the page lock to follow page->mapping. The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts kicking over, this increases to about 20%. In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller. The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking, so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I doubt it will be a problem. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>
