For large size DIO that needs multiple bio, one full page worth of data was lost at the boundary of bio's maximum sector or segment limits. After a bio is full and got submitted. The outer while (nbytes) { ... } loop will allocate a new bio and just march on to index into next page. It just forgets about the page that bio_add_page() rejected when previous bio is full. Fix it by put the rejected page back to pvec so we pick it up again for the next bio.

Implement block device specific .direct_IO method instead of going through generic direct_io_worker for block device. direct_io_worker() is fairly complex because it needs to handle O_DIRECT on file system, where it needs to perform block allocation, hole detection, extents file on write, and tons of other corner cases. The end result is that it takes tons of CPU time to submit an I/O. For block device, the block allocation is much simpler and a tight triple loop can be written to iterate each iovec and each page within the iovec in order to construct/prepare bio structure and then subsequently submit it to the block layer. This significantly speeds up O_D on block device.

When we open (actually blkdev_get) a partition we need to also open (get) the whole device that holds the partition. The involves some limited recursion. This patch tries to simplify some aspects of this. As well as opening the whole device, we need to increment ->bd_part_count when a partition is opened (this is used by rescan_partitions to avoid a rescan if any partition is active, as that would be confusing). The main change this patch makes is to move the inc/dec of bd_part_count into blkdev_{get,put} for the whole rather than doing it in blkdev_{get,put} for the partition. More specifically, we introduce __blkdev_get and __blkdev_put which do exactly what blkdev_{get,put} did, only with an extra "for_part" argument (blkget_{get,put} then call the __ version with a '0' for the extra argument). If for_part is 1, then the blkdev is being get(put) because a partition is being opened(closed) for the first(last) time, and so bd_part_count should be updated (on success). The particular advantage of pushing this function down is that the bd_mutex lock (which is needed to update bd_part_count) is already held at the lower level. Note that this slightly changes the semantics of bd_part_count. Instead of updating it whenever a partition is opened or released, it is now only updated on the first open or last release. This is an adequate semantic as it is only ever tested for "== 0". Having introduced these functions we remove the current bd_part_count updates from do_open (which is really the body of blkdev_get) and call __blkdev_get(... 1). Similarly in blkget_put we remove the old bd_part_count updates and call __blkget_put(..., 1). This call is moved to the end of __blkdev_put to avoid nested locks of bd_mutex. Finally the mutex_lock on whole->bd_mutex in do_open can be removed. It was only really needed to protect bd_part_count, and that is now managed (and protected) within the recursive call. The observation that bd_part_count is central to the locking issues, and the modifications to create __blkdev_put are from Peter Zijlstra.

add_bd_holder() is called from bd_claim_by_kobject to put a given struct bd_holder in the list if there is no matching entry. There are 3 possible results of add_bd_holder(): 1. there is no matching entry and add the given one to the list 2. there is matching entry, so just increment reference count of the existing one 3. something failed during its course 1 and 2 are successful cases. But for case 2, someone has to free the unused struct bd_holder. The current code frees it inside of add_bd_holder and returns same value 0 for both cases 1 and 2. However, it's natural and less error-prone if caller frees it since it's allocated by the caller.

This patch cleans up generic_file_*_read/write() interfaces. Christoph Hellwig gave me the idea for this clean ups. In a nutshell, all filesystems should set .aio_read/.aio_write methods and use do_sync_read/ do_sync_write() as their .read/.write methods. This allows us to cleanup all variants of generic_file_* routines.

Check driver layer errors. Fix from: "Jun'ichi Nomura" <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> In blockdevc-check-errors.patch, add_bd_holder() is modified to return error values when some of its operation failed. Among them, it returns -EEXIST when a given bd_holder object already exists in the list. However, in this case, the function completed its work successfully and need no action by its caller other than freeing unused bd_holder object. So I think it's better to return success after freeing by itself. Otherwise, bd_claim-ing with same claim pointer will fail. Typically, lvresize will fails with following message: device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument and you'll see messages like below in kernel log: device-mapper: table: 254:13: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table Similarly, it should not add bd_holder to the list if either one of symlinking fails. I don't have a test case for this to happen but it should cause dereference of freed pointer. If a matching bd_holder is found in bd_holder_list, add_bd_holder() completes its job by just incrementing the reference count. In this case, it should be considered as success but it used to return 'fail' to let the caller free temporary bd_holder. Fixed it to return success and free given object by itself. Also, if either one of symlinking fails, the bd_holder should not be added to the list so that it can be discarded later. Otherwise, the caller will free bd_holder which is in the list.

Teach special (recursive) locking code to the lock validator. Effects on non-lockdep kernels: - the introduction of the following function variants: extern struct block_device *open_partition_by_devnum(dev_t, unsigned); extern int blkdev_put_partition(struct block_device *); static int blkdev_get_whole(struct block_device *bdev, mode_t mode, unsigned flags); which on non-lockdep are the same as open_by_devnum(), blkdev_put() and blkdev_get(). - a subclass parameter to do_open(). [unused on non-lockdep] - a subclass parameter to __blkdev_put(), which is a new internal function for the main blkdev_put*() functions.

Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint. The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt() which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour). The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the superblock pointer. This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root and mnt_sb would be set directly. The patch also makes the following changes: (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change very little. (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb(). (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon(). This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root, and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in dentries being left unculled. However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries with child trees. [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree. (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

Now that get_block() can handle mapping multiple disk blocks, no need to have ->get_blocks(). This patch removes fs specific ->get_blocks() added for DIO and makes it users use get_block() instead.

I discovered on oprofile hunting on a SMP platform that dentry lookups were slowed down because d_hash_mask, d_hash_shift and dentry_hashtable were in a cache line that contained inodes_stat. So each time inodes_stats is changed by a cpu, other cpus have to refill their cache line. This patch moves some variables to the __read_mostly section, in order to avoid false sharing. RCU dentry lookups can go full speed. Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
