      ext3: fdatasync should skip metadata writeout when overwriting · 3d61f75e
      Hisashi Hifumi 提交于
      Currently fdatasync is identical to fsync in ext3.
      
      I think fdatasync should skip journal flush in data=ordered and
      data=writeback mode when it overwrites to already-instantiated blocks on
      HDD.  When I_DIRTY_DATASYNC flag is not set, fdatasync should skip journal
      writeout because this indicates only atime or/and mtime updates.
      
      Following patch is the same approach of ext2's fsync code(ext2_sync_file).
      
      I did a performance test using the sysbench.
      
      #sysbench --num-threads=128 --max-requests=50000 --test=fileio --file-total-size=128G
      --file-test-mode=rndwr --file-fsync-mode=fdatasync run
      
      The result on ext3 was:

      Pagecache zeroing: zero_user_segment, zero_user_segments and zero_user · eebd2aa3
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions
      
      zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)
      
              Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
              start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
      	makes code clearer.
      
      zero_user_segment(page, start, end)
      
              Same for a single segment.
      
      zero_user(page, start, length)
      
              Length variant for the case where we know the length.
      
      We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:
      
      1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.
      
      2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.
      
         Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
         code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
         KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.
      
      Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
      with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
      kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
      configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
      functions defined in highmem.h.
      
      Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
      function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
      here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
      functions are called.
      
      Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

      Revert "ext2/ext3/ext4: add block bitmap validation" · 0b832a4b
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit 7c9e69fa, fixing up
      conflicts in fs/ext4/balloc.c manually.
      
      The cost of doing the bitmap validation on each lookup - even when the
      bitmap is cached - is absolutely prohibitive.  We could, and probably
      should, do it only when adding the bitmap to the buffer cache.  However,
      right now we are better off just reverting it.
      
      Peter Zijlstra measured the cost of this extra validation as a 85%
      decrease in cached iozone, and while I had a patch that took it down to
      just 17% by not being _quite_ so stupid in the validation, it was still
      a big slowdown that could have been avoided by just doing it right.
