      dquot: cleanup space allocation / freeing routines · 5dd4056d
      由 Christoph Hellwig 提交于 
      Get rid of the alloc_space, free_space, reserve_space, claim_space and
release_rsv dquot operations - they are always called from the filesystem
and if a filesystem really needs their own (which none currently does)
it can just call into it's own routine directly.

Move shared logic into the common __dquot_alloc_space,
dquot_claim_space_nodirty and __dquot_free_space low-level methods,
and rationalize the wrappers around it to move as much as possible
code into the common block for CONFIG_QUOTA vs not.  Also rename
all these helpers to be named dquot_* instead of vfs_dq_*.

      kill-the-BKL/reiserfs: only acquire the write lock once in reiserfs_dirty_inode · dc8f6d89
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      Impact: fix a deadlock

reiserfs_dirty_inode() is the super_operations::dirty_inode() callback
of reiserfs. It can be called from different contexts where the write
lock can be already held.

But this function also grab the write lock (possibly recursively).
Subsequent release of the lock before sleep will actually not release
the lock if the caller of mark_inode_dirty() (which in turn calls
reiserfs_dirty_inode()) already owns the lock.

A typical case:

reiserfs_write_end() {
	acquire_write_lock()
	mark_inode_dirty() {
		reiserfs_dirty_inode() {
			reacquire_write_lock() {
				journal_begin() {
					do_journal_begin_r() {
						/*
						 * fail to release, still
						 * one depth of lock
						 */
						release_write_lock()
						reiserfs_wait_on_write_block() {
							wait_event()

The event is usually provided by something which needs the write lock but
it hasn't been released.

We use reiserfs_write_lock_once() here to ensure we only grab the
write lock in one level.

      reiserfs: kill-the-BKL · 8ebc4232
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      This patch is an attempt to remove the Bkl based locking scheme from
reiserfs and is intended.

It is a bit inspired from an old attempt by Peter Zijlstra:

   http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0704.2/2174.html

The bkl is heavily used in this filesystem to prevent from
concurrent write accesses on the filesystem.

Reiserfs makes a deep use of the specific properties of the Bkl:

- It can be acqquired recursively by a same task
- It is released on the schedule() calls and reacquired when schedule() returns

The two properties above are a roadmap for the reiserfs write locking so it's
very hard to simply replace it with a common mutex.

- We need a recursive-able locking unless we want to restructure several blocks
  of the code.
- We need to identify the sites where the bkl was implictly relaxed
  (schedule, wait, sync, etc...) so that we can in turn release and
  reacquire our new lock explicitly.
  Such implicit releases of the lock are often required to let other
  resources producer/consumer do their job or we can suffer unexpected
  starvations or deadlocks.

So the new lock that replaces the bkl here is a per superblock mutex with a
specific property: it can be acquired recursively by a same task, like the
bkl.

For such purpose, we integrate a lock owner and a lock depth field on the
superblock information structure.

The first axis on this patch is to turn reiserfs_write_(un)lock() function
into a wrapper to manage this mutex. Also some explicit calls to
lock_kernel() have been converted to reiserfs_write_lock() helpers.

The second axis is to find the important blocking sites (schedule...(),
wait_on_buffer(), sync_dirty_buffer(), etc...) and then apply an explicit
release of the write lock on these locations before blocking. Then we can
safely wait for those who can give us resources or those who need some.
Typically this is a fight between the current writer, the reiserfs workqueue
(aka the async commiter) and the pdflush threads.

The third axis is a consequence of the second. The write lock is usually
on top of a lock dependency chain which can include the journal lock, the
flush lock or the commit lock. So it's dangerous to release and trying to
reacquire the write lock while we still hold other locks.

This is fine with the bkl:

      T1                       T2

lock_kernel()
    mutex_lock(A)
    unlock_kernel()
    // do something
                            lock_kernel()
                                mutex_lock(A) -> already locked by T1
                                schedule() (and then unlock_kernel())
    lock_kernel()
    mutex_unlock(A)
    ....

This is not fine with a mutex:

      T1                       T2

mutex_lock(write)
    mutex_lock(A)
    mutex_unlock(write)
    // do something
                           mutex_lock(write)
                              mutex_lock(A) -> already locked by T1
                              schedule()

    mutex_lock(write) -> already locked by T2
    deadlock

The solution in this patch is to provide a helper which releases the write
lock and sleep a bit if we can't lock a mutex that depend on it. It's another
simulation of the bkl behaviour.

The last axis is to locate the fs callbacks that are called with the bkl held,
according to Documentation/filesystem/Locking.

Those are:

- reiserfs_remount
- reiserfs_fill_super
- reiserfs_put_super

Reiserfs didn't need to explicitly lock because of the context of these callbacks.
But now we must take care of that with the new locking.

After this patch, reiserfs suffers from a slight performance regression (for now).
On UP, a high volume write with dd reports an average of 27 MB/s instead
of 30 MB/s without the patch applied.

      fs/reiserfs: return f_fsid for statfs(2) · 651d0623
      由 Coly Li 提交于 
      Make reiserfs3 return f_fsid info for statfs(2).  By Andreas' suggestion,
this patch populates a persistent f_fsid between boots/mounts with help of
on-disk uuid record.

Randy Dunlap reported a compiling error from v2 patch like:
    fs/built-in.o: In function `reiserfs_statfs':
    super.c:(.text+0x7332b): undefined reference to `crc32_le'
    super.c:(.text+0x7333f): undefined reference to `crc32_le'
Also he provided helpful solution to fix this error. The modification of v3
patch is based on Randy's suggestion, add 'select CRC32' in fs/reiserfs/Kconfig.

      filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfs · c4be0c1d
      由 Takashi Sato 提交于 
      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.

      reiserfs: unpack tails on quota files · d5dee5c3
      由 Jan Kara 提交于 
      Quota files cannot have tails because quota_write and quota_read functions do
not support them.  So far when quota files did have tail, we just refused to
turn quotas on it.  Sadly this check has been wrong and so there are now
plenty installations where quota files don't have NOTAIL flag set and so now
after fixing the check, they suddently fail to turn quotas on.  Since it's
easy to unpack the tail from kernel, do this from reiserfs_quota_on() which
solves the problem and is generally nicer to users anyway.
