      make sure data is on disk before calling ->write_inode · 26821ed4
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Similar to the fsync issue fixed a while ago in commit
      2daea67e we need to write for data to
      actually hit the disk before writing out the metadata to guarantee
      data integrity for filesystems that modify the inode in the data I/O
      completion path.  Currently XFS and NFS handle this manually, and AFS
      has a write_inode method that does nothing but waiting for data, while
      others are possibly missing out on this.
      
      Fortunately this change has a lot less impact than the fsync change
      as none of the write_inode methods starts data writeout of any form
      by itself.

      push BKL down into ->put_super · 6cfd0148
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Move BKL into ->put_super from the only caller.  A couple of
      filesystems had trivial enough ->put_super (only kfree and NULLing of
      s_fs_info + stuff in there) to not get any locking: coda, cramfs, efs,
      hugetlbfs, omfs, qnx4, shmem, all others got the full treatment.  Most
      of them probably don't need it, but I'd rather sort that out individually.
      Preferably after all the other BKL pushdowns in that area.
      
      [AV: original used to move lock_super() down as well; these changes are
      removed since we don't do lock_super() at all in generic_shutdown_super()
      now]
      [AV: fuse, btrfs and xfs are known to need no damn BKL, exempt]

      mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create(). · 20c2df83
      Paul Mundt 提交于
      Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
      c59def9f change. They've been
      BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
      either.
      
      This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
      completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
      about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
      or the documentation references).

      Detach sched.h from mm.h · e8edc6e0
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
      function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
      mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.
      
      This patch
      a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
      b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
      c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
      d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
      e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
         getting them indirectly
      
      Net result is:
      a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
         they don't need sched.h
      b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
         on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
         after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).
      
      Cross-compile tested on
      
      	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
      	alpha alpha-up
      	arm

      AFS: implement basic file write support · 31143d5d
      David Howells 提交于
      Implement support for writing to regular AFS files, including:
      
       (1) write
      
       (2) truncate
      
       (3) fsync, fdatasync
      
       (4) chmod, chown, chgrp, utime.
      
      AFS writeback attempts to batch writes into as chunks as large as it can manage
      up to the point that it writes back 65535 pages in one chunk or it meets a
      locked page.
      
      Furthermore, if a page has been written to using a particular key, then should
      another write to that page use some other key, the first write will be flushed
      before the second is allowed to take place.  If the first write fails due to a
      security error, then the page will be scrapped and reread before the second
      write takes place.
      
      If a page is dirty and the callback on it is broken by the server, then the
      dirty data is not discarded (same behaviour as NFS).
      
      Shared-writable mappings are not supported by this patch.

      slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flag · 50953fe9
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL.  It is only supported by
      SLAB.
      
      I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
      to verify that the state is the constructor state again?  The callback is
      performed before each freeing of an object.
      
      I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
      before the free.  That also places the check near the code object
      manipulation of the object.
      
      Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
      compiled with SLAB debugging on.  If there would be code in a constructor
      handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
      SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code.  But there is no such code
      in the kernel.  I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
      use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
      same effect (i.e.  add debug code before kfree).
      
      There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
      clear in fs inode caches.  Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
      pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.
      
      This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support.  Remove the check for
      unimplemented flags from SLUB.

      [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mount · 454e2398
      David Howells 提交于
      Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
      permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
      
      The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
      pointers.  For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
      which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
      superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
      
      The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
      superblock pointer.
      
      This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
      points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing.  In
      such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
      and mnt_sb would be set directly.
      
      The patch also makes the following changes:
      
       (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
           pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
           very little.
      
       (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
           normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
           always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
      
       (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
           dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
      
           This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
           aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
           currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
           and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
           dentries being left unculled.
      
           However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
           implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
           simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
           inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
           with child trees.
      
           [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
      
       (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
           changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

      [PATCH] vfs: MS_VERBOSE should be MS_SILENT · 9b04c997
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The meaning of MS_VERBOSE is backwards; if the bit is set, it really means,
      "don't be verbose".  This is confusing and counter-intuitive.
      
      In addition, there is also no way to set the MS_VERBOSE flag in the
      mount(8) program in util-linux, but interesting, it does define options
      which would do the right thing if MS_SILENT were defined, which
      unfortunately we do not:
      
      #ifdef MS_SILENT
        { "quiet",    0, 0, MS_SILENT    },   /* be quiet  */
        { "loud",     0, 1, MS_SILENT    },   /* print out messages. */
      #endif
      
      So the obvious fix is to deprecate the use of MS_VERBOSE and replace it
      with MS_SILENT.
