Nearly all places in the ext3/4 code which uses "unsigned long" is probably a bug, since on 32-bit systems a ulong a 32-bits, which means we are wasting stack space on 64-bit systems. Signed-off-by: N"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run without a journal. Since that time I've integrated the excellent comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs. We're currently running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without a journal. It just so happens that running without a journal is slightly faster for most everything. We did iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2 which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens to bypass the page cache. Results: ext2 ext4, default ext4, no journal initial writes 13.0 MB/s 15.4 MB/s 15.7 MB/s rewrites 13.1 MB/s 15.6 MB/s 15.9 MB/s reads 15.2 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s re-reads 15.3 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s random readers 5.6 MB/s 5.6 MB/s 5.7 MB/s random writers 5.1 MB/s 5.3 MB/s 5.4 MB/s So it seems that, so far, this was a useful exercise.

The convenience function do_blk_alloc() is a static function with only one caller, so fold it into ext4_new_meta_blocks() to simplify the code and to make it easier to understand. To save more stack space, if count is a null pointer in ext4_new_meta_blocks() assume that caller wanted a single block (and if there is an error, no blocks were allocated).

Revert commit 1f7c14c6 Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Date: Thu Oct 9 12:50:59 2008 -0400 percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set() Before this patch we had the following: percpu_counter_sum(): return the percpu_counter's value percpu_counter_sum_and_set(): return the percpu_counter's value, copying that value into the central value and zeroing the per-cpu counters before returning. After this patch, percpu_counter_sum_and_set() has gone, and percpu_counter_sum() gets the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set() functionality. Problem is, as Eric points out, the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set() functionality was racy and wrong. It zeroes out counters on "other" cpus, without holding any locks which will prevent races agaist updates from those other CPUS. This patch reverts 1f7c14c6. This means that percpu_counter_sum_and_set() still has the race, but percpu_counter_sum() does not. Note that this is not a simple revert - ext4 has since started using percpu_counter_sum() for its dirty_blocks counter as well. Note that this revert patch changes percpu_counter_sum() semantics. Before the patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will bring the counter's central counter mostly up-to-date, so a following percpu_counter_read() will return a close value. After this patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will leave the counter's central accumulator unaltered, so a subsequent call to percpu_counter_read() can now return a significantly inaccurate result. If there is any code in the tree which was introduced after e8ced39d was merged, and which depends upon the new percpu_counter_sum() semantics, that code will break.

This fixes a bug which caused on-line resizing of filesystems with a 1k blocksize to fail. The root cause of this bug was the fact that if an uninitalized bitmap block gets read in by userspace (which e2fsprogs does try to avoid, but can happen when the blocksize is less than the pagesize and an adjacent blocks is read into memory) ext4_read_block_bitmap() was erroneously depending on the buffer uptodate flag to decide whether it needed to initialize the bitmap block in memory --- i.e., to set the standard set of blocks in use by a block group (superblock, bitmaps, inode table, etc.). Essentially, ext4_read_block_bitmap() assumed it was the only routine that might try to read a block containing a block bitmap, which is simply not true. To fix this, ext4_read_block_bitmap() and ext4_read_inode_bitmap() must always initialize uninitialized bitmap blocks. Once a block or inode is allocated out of that bitmap, it will be marked as initialized in the block group descriptor, so in general this won't result any extra unnecessary work.

We run into ENOSPC error on nonmballoc ext4, even when there is free blocks on the filesystem. The patch includes two changes: a) Set reservation to NULL if we trying to allocate near group_target_block from the goal group if the free block in the group is less than windows. This should give us a better chance to allocate near group_target_block. This also ensures that if we are not allocating near group_target_block then we don't trun off reservation. This should enable us to allocate with reservation from other groups that have large free blocks count. b) we don't need to check the window size if the block reservation is off.

With delayed allocation we need to make sure block are reserved before we attempt to allocate them. Otherwise we get block allocation failure (ENOSPC) during writepages which cannot be handled. This would mean silent data loss (We do a printk stating data will be lost). This patch updates the DIO and fallocate code path to do block reservation before block allocation. This is needed to make sure parallel DIO and fallocate request doesn't take block out of delayed reserve space. When free blocks count go below a threshold we switch to a slow patch which looks at other CPU's accumulated percpu counter values.

percpu_counter_sum_and_set() and percpu_counter_sum() is the same except the former updates the global counter after accounting. Since we are taking the fbc->lock to calculate the precise value of the counter in percpu_counter_sum() anyway, it should simply set fbc->count too, as the percpu_counter_sum_and_set() does.

I noticed when filling a 1T filesystem with 4 threads using the fs_mark benchmark: fs_mark -d /mnt/test -D 256 -n 100000 -t 4 -s 20480 -F -S 0 that I occasionally got checksum mismatch errors: EXT4-fs error (device sdb): ext4_init_inode_bitmap: Checksum bad for group 6935 etc. I'd reliably get 4-5 of them during the run.

ext4_read_block_bitmap and read_inode_bitmap do essentially the same thing, and yet they are structured quite differently. I came across this difference while looking at doing bg locking during bg initialization. This patch: * removes unnecessary casts in the error messages * renames read_inode_bitmap to ext4_read_inode_bitmap * and more substantially, restructures the inode bitmap reading function to be more like the block bitmap counterpart. The change to the inode bitmap reader simplifies the locking to be applied in the next patch. Signed-off-by: NEric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NTheodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

When mballoc is enabled, block allocation for old block-based files are allocated using mballoc allocator instead of old block-based allocator. The old ext3 block reservation is turned off when mballoc is turned on. However, the in-core preallocation is not enabled for block-based/ non-extent based file block allocation. This result in performance regression, as now we don't have "reservation" ore in-core preallocation to prevent interleaved fragmentation in multiple writes workload.

This patch mostly controls the way inode are allocated in order to make ialloc aware of flex_bg block group grouping. It achieves this by bypassing the Orlov allocator when block group meta-data are packed toghether through mke2fs. Since the impact on the block allocator is minimal, this patch should have little or no effect on other block allocation algorithms. By controlling the inode allocation, it can basically control where the initial search for new block begins and thus indirectly manipulate the block allocator. This allocator favors data and meta-data locality so the disk will gradually be filled from block group zero upward. This helps improve performance by reducing seek time. Since the group of inode tables within one flex_bg are treated as one giant inode table, uninitialized block groups would not need to partially initialize as many inode table as with Orlov which would help fsck time as the filesystem usage goes up.
