Currently there is an indirection called ioops in the XFS data I/O path. Various functions are called by functions pointers, but there is no coherence in what this is for, and of course for XFS itself it's entirely unused.

After reading the directory contents into the temporary buffer, we grab each dirent and pass it to filldir witht eh current offset of the dirent. The current offset was not being set for the first dirent in the temporary buffer, which coul dresult in bad offsets being set in the f_pos field result in looping and duplicate entries being returned from readdir.

This was broken by my '[XFS] simplify xfs_create/mknod/symlink prototype', which assigned the re-shuffled ondisk dev_t back to the rdev variable in xfs_vn_mknod. Because of that i_rdev is set to the ondisk dev_t instead of the linux dev_t later down the function. Fortunately the fix for it is trivial: we can just remove the assignment because xfs_revalidate_inode has done the proper job before unlocking the inode.

The recent filldir regression fix was not putting the correct d_off in each dirent. This was resulting in incorrect cookies being passed to dmapi ioctls and the wrong offset appearing in the dirents. readdir was unaffected as the filp->f_pos was being updated with the correct offset and this was being written into the last dirent in each buffer. Fix the XFS code to do the right thing.

On last close of a file we purge blocks beyond eof. The same code is used when we truncate the file size down. In this case we need to wait for any pending I/Os for dirty pages beyond the new eof. For the last close case we are not changing the file size and therefore do not need to wait for any I/Os to complete. This fixes a performance bottleneck where writes into the page cache and cache flushes can become mutually exclusive.

The recent I_LOCK->I_SYNC changes mistakenly changed xfs_ichgtime to look at I_SYNC instead of I_LOCK. This was incorrect and prevents newly created inodes from moving to the dirty list.

The radix tree based inode caches did away with the inode cluster hashes, replacing them with a bunch of masking and gang lookups on the radix tree. This masking got broken when moving the code to per-ag radix trees and indexing by agino # rather than straight inode number. The result is clustered inode writeback does not cluster and things can go extremely slowly when there are lots of inodes to write. Fix it up by comparing the agino # of the inode we just looked up to the index of the cluster we are looking for.

- calculation of 'page_count' was incorrect as it did not consider the offset of 'mem' into the first page. The logic to bump 'page_count' didn't work if 'len' was <= PAGE_CACHE_SIZE (ie offset = 3k, len = 2k). - setting b_buffer_length to 'len' is incorrect if 'offset' is > 0. Set it to the total length of the buffer. - I suspect that passing a non-aligned address into mem_to_page() for the first page may have been causing issues - don't know but just tidy up that code anyway.

- sanity check for NULL user buffer in xfs_ioc_bulkstat[_compat]() - remove the special case for XFS_IOC_FSBULKSTAT with count == 1. This special case causes bulkstat to fail because the special case uses xfs_bulkstat_single() instead of xfs_bulkstat() and the two functions have different semantics. xfs_bulkstat() will return the next inode after the one supplied while skipping internal inodes (ie quota inodes). xfs_bulkstate_single() will only lookup the inode supplied and return an error if it is an internal inode. - in xfs_bulkstat(), need to initialise 'lastino' to the inode supplied so in cases were we return without examining any inodes the scan wont restart back at zero. - sanity check for valid *ubcountp values. Cannot sanity check for valid ubuffer here because some users of xfs_bulkstat() don't supply a buffer. - checks against 'ubleft' (the space left in the user's buffer) should be against 'statstruct_size' which is the supplied minimum object size. The mixture of checks against statstruct_size and 0 was one of the reasons we were skipping inodes. - if the formatter function returns BULKSTAT_RV_NOTHING and an error and the error is not ENOENT or EINVAL then we need to abort the scan. ENOENT is for inodes that are no longer valid and we just skip them. EINVAL is returned if we try to lookup an internal inode so we skip them too. For a DMF scan if the inode and DMF attribute cannot fit into the space left in the user's buffer it would return ERANGE. We didn't handle this error and skipped the inode. We would continue to skip inodes until one fitted into the user's buffer or we completed the scan. - put back the recalculation of agino (that got removed with the last fix) at the end of the while loop. This is because the code at the start of the loop expects agino to be the last inode examined if it is non-zero. - if we found some inodes but then encountered an error, return success this time and the error next time. If the formatter aborted with ENOMEM we will now return this error but only if we couldn't read any inodes. Previously if we encountered ENOMEM without reading any inodes we returned a zero count and no error which falsely indicated the scan was complete.

So basicly no page io is issued by __block_write_full_page(), hence pages_skipped goes up. Also the comment in generic_sync_sb_inodes(): 544 /* 545 * writeback is not making progress due to locked 546 * buffers. Skip this inode for now. 547 */ and the comment in __block_write_full_page(): 1713 /* 1714 * The page was marked dirty, but the buffers were 1715 * clean. Someone wrote them back by hand with 1716 * ll_rw_block/submit_bh. A rare case. 1717 */ do not quite agree with each other. The page writeback should be skipped for 'locked buffer', but here it is 'clean buffer'! This patch fixes this bug. Though I'm not sure why __block_write_full_page() is called only to do nothing and who actually issued the writeback for us. This is the two possible new behaviors after the patch: 1) pretty nice: wait 30s and write ALL:) 2) not so good: - during the dd: ~16M - after 30s: ~4M - after 5s: ~4M - after 5s: ~176M The next patch will fix case (2).

Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used. And the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions. The object pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer. Convert ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags) to ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object) throughout the kernel [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coupla fixes] Signed-off-by: NChristoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

XFS leaves stray mappings around when it vmaps memory to make it virtually contigious. This upsets Xen if one of those pages is being recycled into a pagetable, since it finds an extra writable mapping of the page. This patch solves the problem in a brute force way, by making XFS always eagerly unmap its mappings.

Stop using xfs_getattr and a onstack bhv_vattr_t just to get three fields from the underlying inode and opencode copying from the inode fields instead.
