2009-02-23proc: proc_get_inode should de_put when inode already initializedKrzysztof Sachanowicz1-1/+3
de_get is called before every proc_get_inode, but corresponding de_put is called only when dropping last reference to an inode. This might cause something like remove_proc_entry: /proc/stats busy, count=14496 to be printed to the syslog. The fix is to call de_put in case of an already initialized inode in proc_get_inode.

2009-02-22ext4: Fix deadlock in ext4_write_begin() and ext4_da_write_begin()Jan Kara1-1/+8
Functions ext4_write_begin() and ext4_da_write_begin() call grab_cache_page_write_begin() without AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Thus it can happen that page reclaim is triggered in that function and it recurses back into the filesystem (or some other filesystem). But this can lead to various problems as a transaction is already started at that point. Add the necessary flag. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11688 Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2009-02-21ext4: Add fallback for find_group_flexTheodore Ts'o1-0/+7
This is a workaround for find_group_flex() which badly needs to be replaced. One of its problems (besides ignoring the Orlov algorithm) is that it is a bit hyperactive about returning failure under suspicious circumstances. This can lead to spurious ENOSPC failures even when there are inodes still available. Work around this for now by retrying the search using find_group_other() if find_group_flex() returns -1. If find_group_other() succeeds when find_group_flex() has failed, log a warning message. A better block/inode allocator that will fix this problem for real has been queued up for the next merge window. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2009-02-21[CIFS] Fix multiuser mounts so server does not invalidate earlier security ↵Steve French5-7/+105
contexts When two different users mount the same Windows 2003 Server share using CIFS, the first session mounted can be invalidated. Some servers invalidate the first smb session when a second similar user (e.g. two users who get mapped by server to "guest") authenticates an smb session from the same client. By making sure that we set the 2nd and subsequent vc numbers to nonzero values, this ensures that we will not have this problem. Fixes Samba bug 6004, problem description follows: How to reproduce: - configure an "open share" (full permissions to Guest user) on Windows 2003 Server (I couldn't reproduce the problem with Samba server or Windows older than 2003) - mount the share twice with different users who will be authenticated as guest. noacl,noperm,user=john,dir_mode=0700,domain=DOMAIN,rw noacl,noperm,user=jeff,dir_mode=0700,domain=DOMAIN,rw Result: - just the mount point mounted last is accessible: Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
2009-02-21[CIFS] improve posix semantics of file createSteve French2-103/+208
Samba server added support for a new posix open/create/mkdir operation a year or so ago, and we added support to cifs for mkdir to use it, but had not added the corresponding code to file create. The following patch helps improve the performance of the cifs create path (to Samba and servers which support the cifs posix protocol extensions). Using Connectathon basic test1, with 2000 files, the performance improved about 15%, and also helped reduce network traffic (17% fewer SMBs sent over the wire) due to saving a network round trip for the SetPathInfo on every file create. It should also help the semantics (and probably the performance) of write (e.g. when posix byte range locks are on the file) on file handles opened with posix create, and adds support for a few flags which would have to be ignored otherwise.

YAMAMOTO-san noticed that task_dirty_inc doesn't seem to be called properly for cases where set_page_dirty is not used to dirty a page (eg. mark_buffer_dirty). Additionally, there is some inconsistency about when task_dirty_inc is called. It is used for dirty balancing, however it even gets called for __set_page_dirty_no_writeback. So rather than increment it in a set_page_dirty wrapper, move it down to exactly where the dirty page accounting stats are incremented.

2009-02-18seq_file: properly cope with preadEric Biederman1-4/+32
Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the offset it passed to user space. In the case pread this assumption is broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread. To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to the offset user space wanted.

2009-02-18block: revert part of 18ce3751ccd488c78d3827e9f6bf54e6322676fbJens Axboe1-1/+1
The above commit added WRITE_SYNC and switched various places to using that for committing writes that will be waited upon immediately after submission. However, this causes a performance regression with AS and CFQ for ext3 at least, since sync_dirty_buffer() will submit some writes with WRITE_SYNC while ext3 has sumitted others dependent writes without the sync flag set. This causes excessive anticipation/idling in the IO scheduler because sync and async writes get interleaved, causing a big performance regression for the below test case (which is meant to simulate sqlite like behaviour). ---- test case ---- int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fdes, i; FILE *fp; struct timeval start; struct timeval end; struct timeval res; gettimeofday(&start, NULL); for (i=0; i<ROWS; i++) { fp = fopen("test_file", "a"); fprintf(fp, "Some Text Data\n"); fdes = fileno(fp); fsync(fdes); fclose(fp); } gettimeofday(&end, NULL); timersub(&end, &start, &res); fprintf(stdout, "time to write %d lines is %ld(msec)\n", ROWS, (res.tv_sec*1000000 + res.tv_usec)/1000); return 0; } ------------------- Thanks to Sean.White@APCC.com for tracking down this performance regression and providing a test case.

2009-02-17Fix incomplete __mntput lockingAl Viro1-2/+4
Getting this wrong caused WARNING: at fs/namespace.c:636 mntput_no_expire+0xac/0xf2() due to optimistically checking cpu_writer->mnt outside the spinlock. Here's what we really want: * we know that nobody will set cpu_writer->mnt to mnt from now on * all changes to that sucker are done under cpu_writer->lock * we want the laziest equivalent of spin_lock(&cpu_writer->lock); if (likely(cpu_writer->mnt != mnt)) { spin_unlock(&cpu_writer->lock); continue; } /* do stuff */ that would make sure we won't miss earlier setting of ->mnt done by another CPU. Anyway, for now we just move the spin_lock() earlier and move the test into the properly locked region.

2009-02-14ext4: Implement range_cyclic in ext4_da_writepages instead of write_cache_pagesAneesh Kumar K.V1-2/+19
With delayed allocation we lock the page in write_cache_pages() and try to build an in memory extent of contiguous blocks. This is needed so that we can get large contiguous blocks request. If range_cyclic mode is enabled, write_cache_pages() will loop back to the 0 index if no I/O has been done yet, and try to start writing from the beginning of the range. That causes an attempt to take the page lock of lower index page while holding the page lock of higher index page, which can cause a dead lock with another writeback thread. The solution is to implement the range_cyclic behavior in ext4_da_writepages() instead. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12579 Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2009-02-12Btrfs: make a lockdep class for the extent buffer locksChris Mason7-32/+99
Btrfs is currently using spin_lock_nested with a nested value based on the tree depth of the block. But, this doesn't quite work because the max tree depth is bigger than what spin_lock_nested can deal with, and because locks are sometimes taken before the level field is filled in. The solution here is to use lockdep_set_class_and_name instead, and to set the class before unlocking the pages when the block is read from the disk and just after init of a freshly allocated tree block. btrfs_clear_path_blocking is also changed to take the locks in the proper order, and it also makes sure all the locks currently held are properly set to blocking before it tries to retake the spinlocks. Otherwise, lockdep gets upset about bad lock orderin. The lockdep magic cam from Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2009-02-12Btrfs: don't clean old snapshots on sync(1)Chris Mason1-1/+0
Cleaning old snapshots can make sync(1) somewhat slow, and some users and applications still use it in a global fsync kind of workload. This patch changes btrfs not to clean old snapshots during sync, which is safe from a FS consistency point of view. The major downside is that it makes it difficult to tell when old snapshots have been reaped and the space they were using has been reclaimed. A new ioctl will be added for this purpose instead.

2009-02-12Btrfs: use larger metadata clusters in ssd modeChris Mason1-1/+2
Larger metadata clusters can significantly improve writeback performance on ssd drives with large erasure blocks. The larger clusters make it more likely a given IO will completely overwrite the ssd block, so it doesn't have to do an internal rwm cycle. On spinning media, lager metadata clusters end up spreading out the metadata more over time, which makes fsck slower, so we don't want this to be the default.

2009-02-12Btrfs: make sure all pending extent operations are completeJosef Bacik1-29/+42
Theres a slight problem with finish_current_insert, if we set all to 1 and then go through and don't actually skip any of the extents on the pending list, we could exit right after we've added new extents. This is a problem because by inserting the new extents we could have gotten new COW's to happen and such, so we may have some pending updates to do or even more inserts to do after that. So this patch will only exit if we have never skipped any of the extents in the pending list, and we have no extents to insert, this will make sure that all of the pending work is truly done before we return. I've been running with this patch for a few days with all of my other testing and have not seen issues. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com>
2009-02-11ext2/xip: refuse to change xip flag during remount with busy inodesCarsten Otte1-3/+6
For a reason that I was unable to understand in three months of debugging, mount ext2 -o remount stopped working properly when remounting from regular operation to xip, or the other way around. According to a git bisect search, the problem was introduced with the VM_MIXEDMAP/PTE_SPECIAL rework in the vm: commit 70688e4dd1647f0ceb502bbd5964fa344c5eb411 Author: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Date: Mon Apr 28 02:13:02 2008 -0700 xip: support non-struct page backed memory In the failing scenario, the filesystem is mounted read only via root= kernel parameter on s390x. During remount (in rc.sysinit), the inodes of the bash binary and its libraries are busy and cannot be invalidated (the bash which is running rc.sysinit resides on subject filesystem). Afterwards, another bash process (running ifup-eth) recurses into a subshell, runs dup_mm (via fork). Some of the mappings in this bash process were created from inodes that could not be invalidated during remount. Both parent and child process crash some time later due to inconsistencies in their address spaces. The issue seems to be timing sensitive, various attempts to recreate it have failed. This patch refuses to change the xip flag during remount in case some inodes cannot be invalidated. This patch keeps users from running into that issue.

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.

2009-02-11jbd: fix return value of journal_start_commit()Jan Kara1-6/+11
journal_start_commit() returns 1 if either a transaction is committing or the function has queued a transaction commit. But it returns 0 if we raced with somebody queueing the transaction commit as well. This resulted in ext3_sync_fs() not functioning correctly (description from Arthur Jones): 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/ This patch fixes journal_start_commit() to always return 1 when there's a transaction committing or queued for commit.

2009-02-10Do not account for the address space used by hugetlbfs using VM_ACCOUNTMel Gorman1-3/+5
When overcommit is disabled, the core VM accounts for pages used by anonymous shared, private mappings and special mappings. It keeps track of VMAs that should be accounted for with VM_ACCOUNT and VMAs that never had a reserve with VM_NORESERVE. Overcommit for hugetlbfs is much riskier than overcommit for base pages due to contiguity requirements. It avoids overcommiting on both shared and private mappings using reservation counters that are checked and updated during mmap(). This ensures (within limits) that hugepages exist in the future when faults occurs or it is too easy to applications to be SIGKILLed. As hugetlbfs makes its own reservations of a different unit to the base page size, VM_ACCOUNT should never be set. Even if the units were correct, we would double account for the usage in the core VM and hugetlbfs. VM_NORESERVE may be set because an application can request no reserves be made for hugetlbfs at the risk of getting killed later. With commit fc8744adc870a8d4366908221508bb113d8b72ee, VM_NORESERVE and VM_ACCOUNT are getting unconditionally set for hugetlbfs-backed mappings. This breaks the accounting for both the core VM and hugetlbfs, can trigger an OOM storm when hugepage pools are too small lockups and corrupted counters otherwise are used. This patch brings hugetlbfs more in line with how the core VM treats VM_NORESERVE but prevents VM_ACCOUNT being set.
