      ext4: fix initialization of UNINIT bitmap blocks · c806e68f
      Frederic Bohe 提交于
      This fixes a bug which caused on-line resizing of filesystems with a
      1k blocksize to fail.  The root cause of this bug was the fact that if
      an uninitalized bitmap block gets read in by userspace (which
      e2fsprogs does try to avoid, but can happen when the blocksize is less
      than the pagesize and an adjacent blocks is read into memory)
      ext4_read_block_bitmap() was erroneously depending on the buffer
      uptodate flag to decide whether it needed to initialize the bitmap
      block in memory --- i.e., to set the standard set of blocks in use by
      a block group (superblock, bitmaps, inode table, etc.).  Essentially,
      ext4_read_block_bitmap() assumed it was the only routine that might
      try to read a block containing a block bitmap, which is simply not
      true.  
      
      To fix this, ext4_read_block_bitmap() and ext4_read_inode_bitmap()
      must always initialize uninitialized bitmap blocks.  Once a block or
      inode is allocated out of that bitmap, it will be marked as
      initialized in the block group descriptor, so in general this won't
      result any extra unnecessary work.

      ext4: Use readahead when reading an inode from the inode table · 240799cd
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      With modern hard drives, reading 64k takes roughly the same time as
      reading a 4k block.  So request readahead for adjacent inode table
      blocks to reduce the time it takes when iterating over directories
      (especially when doing this in htree sort order) in a cold cache case.
      With this patch, the time it takes to run "git status" on a kernel
      tree after flushing the caches via "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches"
      is reduced by 21%.

      jbd2: clean up how the journal device name is printed · 05496769
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      Calculate the journal device name once and stash it away in the
      journal_s structure.  This avoids needing to call bdevname()
      everywhere and reduces stack usage by not needing to allocate an
      on-stack buffer.  In addition, we eliminate the '/' that can appear in
      device names (e.g. "cciss/c0d0p9" --- see kernel bugzilla #11321) that
      can cause problems when creating proc directory names, and include the
      inode number to support ocfs2 which creates multiple journals with
      different inode numbers.

      ext4: Avoid printk floods in the face of directory corruption · 9d9f1775
      Eric Sandeen 提交于
      Note: some people thinks this represents a security bug, since it
      might make the system go away while it is printing a large number of
      console messages, especially if a serial console is involved.  Hence,
      it has been assigned CVE-2008-3528, but it requires that the attacker
      either has physical access to your machine to insert a USB disk with a
      corrupted filesystem image (at which point why not just hit the power
      button), or is otherwise able to convince the system administrator to
      mount an arbitrary filesystem image (at which point why not just
      include a setuid shell or world-writable hard disk device file or some
      such).  Me, I think they're just being silly. --tytso

      ext4: Make sure all the block allocation paths reserve blocks · a30d542a
      Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于
      With delayed allocation we need to make sure block are reserved before
      we attempt to allocate them. Otherwise we get block allocation failure
      (ENOSPC) during writepages which cannot be handled. This would mean
      silent data loss (We do a printk stating data will be lost). This patch
      updates the DIO and fallocate code path to do block reservation before
      block allocation. This is needed to make sure parallel DIO and fallocate
      request doesn't take block out of delayed reserve space.
      
      When free blocks count go below a threshold we switch to a slow patch
      which looks at other CPU's accumulated percpu counter values.
