      xfs: remove the i_new_size field in struct xfs_inode · 2813d682
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Now that we use the VFS i_size field throughout XFS there is no need for the
      i_new_size field any more given that the VFS i_size field gets updated
      in ->write_end before unlocking the page, and thus is always uptodate when
      writeback could see a page.  Removing i_new_size also has the advantage that
      we will never have to trim back di_size during a failed buffered write,
      given that it never gets updated past i_size.
      
      Note that currently the generic direct I/O code only updates i_size after
      calling our end_io handler, which requires a small workaround to make
      sure di_size actually makes it to disk.  I hope to fix this properly in
      the generic code.
      
      A downside is that we lose the support for parallel non-overlapping O_DIRECT
      appending writes that recently was added.  I don't think keeping the complex
      and fragile i_new_size infrastructure for this is a good tradeoff - if we
      really care about parallel appending writers we should investigate turning
      the iolock into a range lock, which would also allow for parallel
      non-overlapping buffered writers.

      xfs: remove the i_size field in struct xfs_inode · ce7ae151
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      There is no fundamental need to keep an in-memory inode size copy in the XFS
      inode.  We already have the on-disk value in the dinode, and the separate
      in-memory copy that we need for regular files only in the XFS inode.
      
      Remove the xfs_inode i_size field and change the XFS_ISIZE macro to use the
      VFS inode i_size field for regular files.  Switch code that was directly
      accessing the i_size field in the xfs_inode to XFS_ISIZE, or in cases where
      we are limited to regular files direct access of the VFS inode i_size field.
      
      This also allows dropping some fairly complicated code in the write path
      which dealt with keeping the xfs_inode i_size uptodate with the VFS i_size
      that is getting updated inside ->write_end.
      
      Note that we do not bother resetting the VFS i_size when truncating a file
      that gets freed to zero as there is no point in doing so because the VFS inode
      is no longer in use at this point.  Just relax the assert in xfs_ifree to
      only check the on-disk size instead.

      xfs: fix failed write truncation handling. · c726de44
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Since the move to the new truncate sequence we call xfs_setattr to
      truncate down excessively instanciated blocks.  As shown by the testcase
      in kernel.org BZ #22452 that doesn't work too well.  Due to the confusion
      of the internal inode size, and the VFS inode i_size it zeroes data that
      it shouldn't.
      
      But full blown truncate seems like overkill here.  We only instanciate
      delayed allocations in the write path, and given that we never released
      the iolock we can't have converted them to real allocations yet either.
      
      The only nasty case is pre-existing preallocation which we need to skip.
      We already do this for page discard during writeback, so make the delayed
      allocation block punching a generic function and call it from the failed
      write path as well as xfs_aops_discard_page. The callers are
      responsible for ensuring that partial blocks are not truncated away,
      and that they hold the ilock.
      
      Based on a fix originally from Christoph Hellwig. This version used
      filesystem blocks as the range unit.

      xfs: remove incorrect assert in xfs_vm_writepage · ece413f5
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      In commit 20cb52eb, titled
      "xfs: simplify xfs_vm_writepage" I added an assert that any !mapped and
      uptodate buffers are not dirty.  That asserts turns out to trigger a lot
      when running fsx on filesystems with small block sizes.  The reason for
      that is that the assert is simply incorrect.  !mapped and uptodate
      just mean this buffer covers a hole, and whenever we do a set_page_dirty
      we mark all blocks in the page dirty, no matter if they have data or
      not.  So remove the assert, and update the comment above the condition
      to match reality.

      writeback: remove nonblocking/encountered_congestion references · 1b430bee
      Wu Fengguang 提交于
      This removes more dead code that was somehow missed by commit 0d99519e
      (writeback: remove unused nonblocking and congestion checks).  There are
      no behavior change except for the removal of two entries from one of the
      ext4 tracing interface.
      
      The nonblocking checks in ->writepages are no longer used because the
      flusher now prefer to block on get_request_wait() than to skip inodes on
      IO congestion.  The latter will lead to more seeky IO.
      
      The nonblocking checks in ->writepage are no longer used because it's
      redundant with the WB_SYNC_NONE check.
      
      We no long set ->nonblocking in VM page out and page migration, because
      a) it's effectively redundant with WB_SYNC_NONE in current code
      b) it's old semantic of "Don't get stuck on request queues" is mis-behavior:
         that would skip some dirty inodes on congestion and page out others, which
         is unfair in terms of LRU age.

      xfs: new truncate sequence · fa9b227e
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Convert XFS to the new truncate sequence.  We still can have errors after
      updating the file size in xfs_setattr, but these are real I/O errors and lead
      to a transaction abort and filesystem shutdown, so they are not an issue.
      
      Errors from ->write_begin and write_end can now be handled correctly because
      we can actually get rid of the delalloc extents while previous the buffer
      state was stipped in block_invalidatepage.
      
      There is still no error handling for ->direct_IO, because doing so will need
      some major restructuring given that we only have the iolock shared and do not
      hold i_mutex at all.  Fortunately leaving the normally allocated blocks behind
      there is not a major issue and this will get cleaned up by xfs_free_eofblock
      later.
      
      Note: the patch is against Al's vfs.git tree as that contains the nessecary
      preparations.  I'd prefer to get it applied there so that we can get some
      testing in linux-next.

      Filesystems with unwritten extent support must not complete an AIO request
      until the transaction to convert the extent has been commited.  That means
      the aio_complete calls needs to be moved into the ->end_io callback so
      that the filesystem can control when to call it exactly.
