2009-04-06ext3: make default data ordering mode configurableLinus Torvalds1-1/+7
This makes the defautl ext3 data ordering mode (when no explicit ordering is set) configurable, so as to allow people to default to 'data=writeback' and get the resulting latency improvements. This is a non-issue if a filesystem has been explicitly set to some ordering (with 'tune2fs'). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-02-11ext3: revert "ext3: wait on all pending commits in ext3_sync_fs"Jan Kara1-5/+6
This reverts commit c87591b719737b4e91eb1a9fa8fd55a4ff1886d6. Since journal_start_commit() is now fixed to return 1 when we started a transaction commit, there's some transaction waiting to be committed or there's a transaction already committing, we don't need to call ext3_force_commit() in ext3_sync_fs(). Furthermore ext3_force_commit() can unnecessarily create sync transaction which is expensive so it's worthwhile to remove it when we can.

2009-01-09filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfsTakashi Sato1-16/+29
Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which suspends write requests. So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and replication) while it is mounted. In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g. VxFS) has the freeze feature and it would be used to get the consistent backup. If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it without a commercial filesystem. So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature. I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps. 1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl. 2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot with the storage device's feature. 3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl. 4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume or the snapshot. This patch: VFS: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that they can return an error. Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion. ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed, and unlockfs always returns 0. reiserfs: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.

2009-01-08ext3: allocate ->s_blockgroup_lock separatelyPekka Enberg1-1/+9
As spotted by kmemtrace, struct ext3_sb_info is 17152 bytes on 64-bit which makes it a very bad fit for SLAB allocators. The culprit of the wasted memory is ->s_blockgroup_lock which can be as big as 16 KB when NR_CPUS >= 32. To fix that, allocate ->s_blockgroup_lock, which fits nicely in a order 2 page in the worst case, separately. This shinks down struct ext3_sb_info enough to fit a 1 KB slab cache so now we allocate 16 KB + 1 KB instead of 32 KB saving 15 KB of memory.

2009-01-05ext3: provide function to release metadata pages under memory pressureToshiyuki Okajima1-0/+21
Pages in the page cache belonging to ext3 data files are released via the ext3_releasepage() function specified in the ext3 inode's address_space_ops. However, metadata blocks (such as indirect blocks, directory blocks, etc) are managed via the block device address_space_ops, and they can not be released by try_to_free_buffers() if they have a journal head attached to them. To address this, we supply a try_to_free_pages() function which calls journal_try_to_free_buffers() function to free the metadata, and which is called by the block device's blkdev_releasepage() function.

2008-11-06ext3: wait on all pending commits in ext3_sync_fsArthur Jones1-6/+5
In ext3_sync_fs, we only wait for a commit to finish if we started it, but there may be one already in progress which will not be synced. In the case of a data=ordered umount with pending long symlinks which are delayed due to a long list of other I/O on the backing block device, this causes the buffer associated with the long symlinks to not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of fsync_super. Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits, seeing the UMOUNT flag and the dirty pages are never written to the backing block device, causing long symlink corruption and exposing new or previously freed block data to userspace. This can be reproduced with a script created by Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>: #!/bin/bash umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 rm -f /mnt/test2/* dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test2/bigfile bs=1M count=512 touch /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename ln -s /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename /mnt/test2/link umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 ls /mnt/test2/ umount /mnt/test2 To ensure all commits are synced, we flush all journal commits now when sync_fs'ing ext3.

The original ext3 hash algorithms assumed that variables of type char were signed, as God and K&R intended. Unfortunately, this assumption is not true on some architectures.

2008-10-23ext3: add checks for errors from jbdHidehiro Kawai1-4/+19
If the journal has aborted due to a checkpointing failure, we have to keep the contents of the journal space. Otherwise, the filesystem will lose uncheckpointed metadata completely and become inconsistent. To avoid this, we need to keep needs_recovery flag if checkpoint has failed. With this patch, ext3_put_super() detects a checkpointing failure from the return value of journal_destroy(), then it invokes ext3_abort() to make the filesystem read only and keep needs_recovery flag. Errors from journal_flush() are also handled by this patch in some places.

2008-10-20ext3: add an option to control error handling on file dataHidehiro Kawai1-0/+16
If the journal doesn't abort when it gets an IO error in file data blocks, the file data corruption will spread silently. Because most of applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(), they don't notice the IO error. It's scary for mission critical systems. On the other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets an IO error in file data blocks, the system will easily become inoperable. So this patch introduces a filesystem option to determine whether it aborts the journal or just call printk() when it gets an IO error in file data. If you mount a ext3 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file data write error. If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't abort, just call printk(). data_err=ignore is the default.

2008-02-06ext3: change the default behaviour on errorAneesh Kumar K.V1-8/+8
ext3 file system was by default ignoring errors and continuing. This is not a good default as continuing on error could lead to file system corruption. Change the default to mark the file system readonly. Debian and ubuntu already does this as the default in their fstab.

2007-12-17ext3, ext4: avoid divide by zeroAndries E. Brouwer1-1/+1
As it turns out, the kernel divides by EXT3_INODES_PER_GROUP(s) when mounting an ext3 filesystem. If that number is zero, a crash follows. Below a patch. This crash was reported by Joeri de Ruiter, Carst Tankink and Pim Vullers.

2007-10-18ext3: support large blocksize up to PAGESIZETakashi Sato1-1/+5
This patch set supports large block size(>4k, <=64k) in ext3 just enlarging the block size limit. But it is NOT possible to have 64kB blocksize on ext3 without some changes to the directory handling code. The reason is that an empty 64kB directory block would have a rec_len == (__u16)2^16 == 0, and this would cause an error to be hit in the filesystem. The proposed solution is treat 64k rec_len with a an impossible value like rec_len = 0xffff to handle this. The Patch-set consists of the following 2 patches. [1/2] ext3: enlarge blocksize - Allow blocksize up to pagesize [2/2] ext3: fix rec_len overflow - prevent rec_len from overflow with 64KB blocksize Now on 64k page ppc64 box runs with this patch set we could create a 64k block size ext3, and able to handle empty directory block.
