      ext4: Don't call sb_issue_discard() in ext4_free_blocks() · b56ff9d3
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      Commit 5c521830 (ext4: Support discard requests when running in
      no-journal mode) attempts to add sb_issue_discard() for data blocks
      (in data=writeback mode) and in no-journal mode.  Unfortunately, this
      no longer works, because in commit dd3932ed (block: remove
      BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT), sb_issue_discard() only presents a synchronous
      interface, and there are times when we call ext4_free_blocks() when we
      are are holding a spinlock, or are otherwise in an atomic context.
      
      For now, I've removed the call to sb_issue_discard() to prevent a
      deadlock or (if spinlock debugging is enabled) failures like this:

      fs: do not assign default i_ino in new_inode · 85fe4025
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Instead of always assigning an increasing inode number in new_inode
      move the call to assign it into those callers that actually need it.
      For now callers that need it is estimated conservatively, that is
      the call is added to all filesystems that do not assign an i_ino
      by themselves.  For a few more filesystems we can avoid assigning
      any inode number given that they aren't user visible, and for others
      it could be done lazily when an inode number is actually needed,
      but that's left for later patches.

      block: remove BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT · dd3932ed
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      All the blkdev_issue_* helpers can only sanely be used for synchronous
      caller.  To issue cache flushes or barriers asynchronously the caller needs
      to set up a bio by itself with a completion callback to move the asynchronous
      state machine ahead.  So drop the BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT flag that is always
      specified when calling blkdev_issue_* and also remove the now unused flags
      argument to blkdev_issue_flush and blkdev_issue_zeroout.  For
      blkdev_issue_discard we need to keep it for the secure discard flag, which
      gains a more descriptive name and loses the bitops vs flag confusion.

      ext4: Adding error check after calling ext4_mb_regular_allocator() · 6c7a120a
      Aditya Kali 提交于
      If the bitmap block on disk is bad, ext4_mb_load_buddy() returns an
      error. This error is returned to the caller,
      ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and then to ext4_mb_new_blocks().  But
      ext4_mb_new_blocks() did not check for the return value of
      ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and would repeatedly try to load the
      bitmap block. The fix simply catches the return value and exits out of
      the 'repeat' loop after cleanup.
      
      We also take the opportunity to clean up the error handling in
      ext4_mb_new_blocks().

      ext4: Clean up s_dirt handling · a0375156
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
      is enabled.  In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
      inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
      group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted.  As a
      result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
      journal or by setting s_dirt.  There are a few exceptions, most
      notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
      be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
      operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.
      
      This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
      with a journal.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.
