      Revert "ext4: Remove journal_checksum mount option and enable it by default" · d4da6c9c
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit d0646f7b, as
      requested by Eric Sandeen.
      
      It can basically cause an ext4 filesystem to miss recovery (and thus get
      mounted with errors) if the journal checksum does not match.
      
      Quoth Eric:
      
         "My hand-wavy hunch about what is happening is that we're finding a
          bad checksum on the last partially-written transaction, which is
          not surprising, but if we have a wrapped log and we're doing the
          initial scan for head/tail, and we abort scanning on that bad
          checksum, then we are essentially running an unrecovered filesystem.
      
          But that's hand-wavy and I need to go look at the code.
      
          We lived without journal checksums on by default until now, and at
          this point they're doing more harm than good, so we should revert
          the default-changing commit until we can fix it and do some good
          power-fail testing with the fixes in place."

      ext4: Use tracepoints for mb_history trace file · 296c355c
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The /proc/fs/ext4/<dev>/mb_history was maintained manually, and had a
      number of problems: it required a largish amount of memory to be
      allocated for each ext4 filesystem, and the s_mb_history_lock
      introduced a CPU contention problem.  
      
      By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace
      tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event
      filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4
      tracepoints, etc.

      ext4: async direct IO for holes and fallocate support · 8d5d02e6
      Mingming Cao 提交于
      For async direct IO that covers holes or fallocate, the end_io
      callback function now queued the convertion work on workqueue but
      don't flush the work rightaway as it might take too long to afford.
      
      But when fsync is called after all the data is completed, user expects
      the metadata also being updated before fsync returns.
      
      Thus we need to flush the conversion work when fsync() is called.
      This patch keep track of a listed of completed async direct io that
      has a work queued on workqueue.  When fsync() is called, it will go
      through the list and do the conversion.

      ext4: Use end_io callback to avoid direct I/O fallback to buffered I/O · 4c0425ff
      Mingming Cao 提交于
      Currently the DIO VFS code passes create = 0 when writing to the
      middle of file.  It does this to avoid block allocation for holes, so
      as not to expose stale data out when there is a parallel buffered read
      (which does not hold the i_mutex lock).  Direct I/O writes into holes
      falls back to buffered IO for this reason.
      
      Since preallocated extents are treated as holes when doing a
      get_block() look up (buffer is not mapped), direct IO over fallocate
      also falls back to buffered IO.  Thus ext4 actually silently falls
      back to buffered IO in above two cases, which is undesirable.
      
      To fix this, this patch creates unitialized extents when a direct I/O
      write into holes in sparse files, and registering an end_io callback which
      converts the uninitialized extent to an initialized extent after the
      I/O is completed.

      ext4: Adjust ext4_da_writepages() to write out larger contiguous chunks · 55138e0b
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      Work around problems in the writeback code to force out writebacks in
      larger chunks than just 4mb, which is just too small.  This also works
      around limitations in the ext4 block allocator, which can't allocate
      more than 2048 blocks at a time.  So we need to defeat the round-robin
      characteristics of the writeback code and try to write out as many
      blocks in one inode before allowing the writeback code to move on to
      another inode.  We add a a new per-filesystem tunable,
      max_writeback_mb_bump, which caps this to a default of 128mb per
      inode.

      ext4: limit block allocations for indirect-block files to < 2^32 · fb0a387d
      Eric Sandeen 提交于
      Today, the ext4 allocator will happily allocate blocks past
      2^32 for indirect-block files, which results in the block
      numbers getting truncated, and corruption ensues.
      
      This patch limits such allocations to < 2^32, and adds
      BUG_ONs if we do get blocks larger than that.
      
      This should address RH Bug 519471, ext4 bitmap allocator 
      must limit blocks to < 2^32
      
      * ext4_find_goal() is modified to choose a goal < UINT_MAX,
        so that our starting point is in an acceptable range.
      
      * ext4_xattr_block_set() is modified such that the goal block
        is < UINT_MAX, as above.
      
      * ext4_mb_regular_allocator() is modified so that the group
        search does not continue into groups which are too high
      
      * ext4_mb_use_preallocated() has a check that we don't use
        preallocated space which is too far out
      
      * ext4_alloc_blocks() and ext4_xattr_block_set() add some BUG_ONs
      
      No attempt has been made to limit inode locations to < 2^32,
      so we may wind up with blocks far from their inodes.  Doing
      this much already will lead to some odd ENOSPC issues when the
      "lower 32" gets full, and further restricting inodes could
      make that even weirder.
      
      For high inodes, choosing a goal of the original, % UINT_MAX,
      may be a bit odd, but then we're in an odd situation anyway,
      and I don't know of a better heuristic.

      ext4: Fix initalization of s_flex_groups · 7ad9bb65
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The s_flex_groups array should have been initialized using atomic_add
      to sum up the free counts from the block groups that make up a
      flex_bg.  By using atomic_set, the value of the s_flex_groups array
      was set to the values of the last block group in the flex_bg.  
      
      The impact of this bug is that the block and inode allocation
      algorithms might not pick the best flex_bg for new allocation.

      ext4: Add feature set check helper for mount & remount paths · a13fb1a4
      Eric Sandeen 提交于
      A user reported that although his root ext4 filesystem was mounting
      fine, other filesystems would not mount, with the:
      
      "Filesystem with huge files cannot be mounted RDWR without CONFIG_LBDAF"
      
      error on his 32-bit box built without CONFIG_LBDAF.  This is because
      the test at mount time for this situation was not being re-checked
      on remount, and the normal boot process makes an ro->rw transition,
      so this was being missed.
      
      Refactor to make a common helper function to test the filesystem
      features against the type of mount request (RO vs. RW) so that we 
      stay consistent.

      No need to do lock_super() for exclusion in generic_shutdown_super() · a9e220f8
      Al Viro 提交于
      We can't run into contention on it.  All other callers of lock_super()
      either hold s_umount (and we have it exclusive) or hold an active
      reference to superblock in question, which prevents the call of
      generic_shutdown_super() while the reference is held.  So we can
      replace lock_super(s) with get_fs_excl() in generic_shutdown_super()
      (and corresponding change for unlock_super(), of course).
      
      Since ext4 expects s_lock held for its put_super, take lock_super()
      into it.  The rest of filesystems do not care at all.
