      cifs: don't use vfsmount to pin superblock for oplock breaks · d7c86ff8
      Jeff Layton 提交于
      Filesystems aren't really supposed to do anything with a vfsmount. It's
      considered a layering violation since vfsmounts are entirely managed at
      the VFS layer.
      
      CIFS currently keeps an active reference to a vfsmount in order to
      prevent the superblock vanishing before an oplock break has completed.
      What we really want to do instead is to keep sb->s_active high until the
      oplock break has completed. This patch borrows the scheme that NFS uses
      for handling sillyrenames.
      
      An atomic_t is added to the cifs_sb_info. When it transitions from 0 to
      1, an extra reference to the superblock is taken (by bumping the
      s_active value). When it transitions from 1 to 0, that reference is
      dropped and a the superblock teardown may proceed if there are no more
      references to it.
      
      Also, the vfsmount pointer is removed from cifsFileInfo and from
      cifs_new_fileinfo, and some bogus forward declarations are removed from
      cifsfs.h.

      cifs: keep dentry reference in cifsFileInfo instead of inode reference · a5e18bc3
      Jeff Layton 提交于
      cifsFileInfo is a bit problematic. It contains a reference back to the
      struct file itself. This makes it difficult for a cifsFileInfo to exist
      without a corresponding struct file.
      
      It would be better instead of the cifsFileInfo just held info pertaining
      to the open file on the server instead without any back refrences to the
      struct file. This would allow it to exist after the filp to which it was
      originally attached was closed.
      
      Much of the use of the file pointer in this struct is to get at the
      dentry.  Begin divorcing the cifsFileInfo from the struct file by
      keeping a reference to the dentry. Since the dentry will have a
      reference to the inode, we can eliminate the "pInode" field too and
      convert the igrab/iput to dget/dput.

      cifs: use workqueue instead of slow-work · 9b646972
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Workqueue can now handle high concurrency.  Use system_nrt_wq
      instead of slow-work.
      
      * Updated is_valid_oplock_break() to not call cifs_oplock_break_put()
        as advised by Steve French.  It might cause deadlock.  Instead,
        reference is increased after queueing succeeded and
        cifs_oplock_break() briefly grabs GlobalSMBSeslock before putting
        the cfile to make sure it doesn't put before the matching get is
        finished.
      
      * Anton Blanchard reported that cifs conversion was using now gone
        system_single_wq.  Use system_nrt_wq which provides non-reentrance
        guarantee which is enough and much better.

      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.
