      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: 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.

      ext4: lock block groups when initializing · b5f10eed
      Eric Sandeen 提交于
      I noticed when filling a 1T filesystem with 4 threads using the
      fs_mark benchmark:
      
      fs_mark -d /mnt/test -D 256 -n 100000 -t 4 -s 20480 -F -S 0
      
      that I occasionally got checksum mismatch errors:
      
      EXT4-fs error (device sdb): ext4_init_inode_bitmap: Checksum bad for group 6935
      
      etc.  I'd reliably get 4-5 of them during the run.
      
      It appears that the problem is likely a race to init the bg's
      when the uninit_bg feature is enabled.
      
      With the patch below, which adds sb_bgl_locking around initialization,
      I was able to complete several runs with no errors or warnings.

      ext4: sync up block and inode bitmap reading functions · e29d1cde
      Eric Sandeen 提交于
      ext4_read_block_bitmap and read_inode_bitmap do essentially
      the same thing, and yet they are structured quite differently.
      I came across this difference while looking at doing bg locking
      during bg initialization.
      
      This patch:
      
      * removes unnecessary casts in the error messages
      * renames read_inode_bitmap to ext4_read_inode_bitmap
      * and more substantially, restructures the inode bitmap
        reading function to be more like the block bitmap counterpart.
      
      The change to the inode bitmap reader simplifies the locking
      to be applied in the next patch.

      ext4: delayed allocation ENOSPC handling · d2a17637
      Mingming Cao 提交于
      This patch does block reservation for delayed
      allocation, to avoid ENOSPC later at page flush time.
      
      Blocks(data and metadata) are reserved at da_write_begin()
      time, the freeblocks counter is updated by then, and the number of
      reserved blocks is store in per inode counter.
              
      At the writepage time, the unused reserved meta blocks are returned
      back. At unlink/truncate time, reserved blocks are properly released.
      
      Updated fix from  Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
      to fix the oldallocator block reservation accounting with delalloc, added
      lock to guard the counters and also fix the reservation for meta blocks.

      Revert "ext2/ext3/ext4: add block bitmap validation" · 0b832a4b
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit 7c9e69fa, fixing up
      conflicts in fs/ext4/balloc.c manually.
      
      The cost of doing the bitmap validation on each lookup - even when the
      bitmap is cached - is absolutely prohibitive.  We could, and probably
      should, do it only when adding the bitmap to the buffer cache.  However,
      right now we are better off just reverting it.
      
      Peter Zijlstra measured the cost of this extra validation as a 85%
      decrease in cached iozone, and while I had a patch that took it down to
      just 17% by not being _quite_ so stupid in the validation, it was still
      a big slowdown that could have been avoided by just doing it right.
