      mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault · c2ec175c
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Change the page_mkwrite prototype to take a struct vm_fault, and return
      VM_FAULT_xxx flags.  There should be no functional change.
      
      This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to
      the VM (and also can provide more information eg.  virtual_address to the
      driver, which might be important in some special cases).
      
      This is required for a subsequent fix.  And will also make it easier to
      merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.

      ext4: Add auto_da_alloc mount option · afd4672d
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      Add a mount option which allows the user to disable automatic
      allocation of blocks whose allocation by delayed allocation when the
      file was originally truncated or when the file is renamed over an
      existing file.  This feature is intended to save users from the
      effects of naive application writers, but it reduces the effectiveness
      of the delayed allocation code.  This mount option disables this
      safety feature, which may be desirable for prodcutions systems where
      the risk of unclean shutdowns or unexpected system crashes is low.

      When closing a file that had been previously truncated, force any

      is mounted with data=ordered, the data blocks will be pushed out to
      disk along with the journal commit.  Many application programs expect

      ext4: New inode/block allocation algorithms for flex_bg filesystems · a4912123
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The find_group_flex() inode allocator is now only used if the
      filesystem is mounted using the "oldalloc" mount option.  It is
      replaced with the original Orlov allocator that has been updated for
      flex_bg filesystems (it should behave the same way if flex_bg is
      disabled).  The inode allocator now functions by taking into account
      each flex_bg group, instead of each block group, when deciding whether
      or not it's time to allocate a new directory into a fresh flex_bg.
      
      The block allocator has also been changed so that the first block
      group in each flex_bg is preferred for use for storing directory
      blocks.  This keeps directory blocks close together, which is good for
      speeding up e2fsck since large directories are more likely to look
      like this:

      jbd2: Avoid possible NULL dereference in jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_truncate() · 7f5aa215
      Jan Kara 提交于
      If we race with commit code setting i_transaction to NULL, we could
      possibly dereference it.  Proper locking requires the journal pointer
      (to access journal->j_list_lock), which we don't have.  So we have to
      change the prototype of the function so that filesystem passes us the
      journal pointer.  Also add a more detailed comment about why the
      function jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_truncate() does what it does and
      how it should be used.

      ext4: Remove bogus BUG() check in ext4_bmap() · b9ec63f7
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The code to support journal-less ext4 operation added a BUG to
      ext4_bmap() which fired if there was no journal and the
      EXT4_STATE_JDATA bit was set in the i_state field.  This caused
      running the filefrag program (which uses the FIMBAP ioctl) to trigger
      a BUG().
      
      The EXT4_STATE_JDATA bit is only used for ext4_bmap(), and it's
      harmless for the bit to be set.  We could add a check in
      __ext4_journalled_writepage() and ext4_journalled_write_end() to only
      set the EXT4_STATE_JDATA bit if the journal is present, but that adds
      an extra test and jump instruction.  It's easier to simply remove the
      BUG check.

      ext4: only use i_size_high for regular files · 06a279d6
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      Directories are not allowed to be bigger than 2GB, so don't use
      i_size_high for anything other than regular files.  E2fsck should
      complain about these inodes, but the simplest thing to do for the
      kernel is to only use i_size_high for regular files.
      
      This prevents an intentially corrupted filesystem from causing the
      kernel to burn a huge amount of CPU and issuing error messages such
      as:

      fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix · 54566b2c
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
      could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
      allocations happened.  They are done in write_begin, which would always
      assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim.  This bug could
      cause filesystem deadlocks.
      
      The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
      allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
      called.  It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
      take the page lock.  The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
      anyway, so turn that into a single flag.
      
      Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS.  Filesystems can now act on
      this flag in their write_begin function.  Change __grab_cache_page to
      accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
      change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
      and does away with random leading underscores).
      
      This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
      filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
      ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
      GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg.  ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
      random example).

      ext4: calculate journal credits correctly · ac51d837
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      This fixes a 2.6.27 regression which was introduced in commit a02908f1.
      
      We weren't passing the chunk parameter down to the two subections,
      ext4_indirect_trans_blocks() and ext4_ext_index_trans_blocks(), with
      the result that massively overestimate the amount of credits needed by
      ext4_da_writepages, especially in the non-extents case.  This causes
      failures especially on /boot partitions, which tend to be small and
      non-extent using since GRUB doesn't handle extents.

      ext4: Allow ext4 to run without a journal · 0390131b
      Frank Mayhar 提交于
      A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run
      without a journal.  Since that time I've integrated the excellent
      comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs.  We're currently
      running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
      both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without
      a journal.  It just so happens that running without a journal is
      slightly faster for most everything.
      
      We did
      	iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2
      
      which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
      a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
      to bypass the page cache.  Results:
      
                           ext2        ext4, default   ext4, no journal
        initial writes   13.0 MB/s        15.4 MB/s          15.7 MB/s
        rewrites         13.1 MB/s        15.6 MB/s          15.9 MB/s
        reads            15.2 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
        re-reads         15.3 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
        random readers    5.6 MB/s         5.6 MB/s           5.7 MB/s
        random writers    5.1 MB/s         5.3 MB/s           5.4 MB/s 
      
      So it seems that, so far, this was a useful exercise.

      stack dumps aren't helpful, and they tend to obscure the true original

      aborted, return an EROFS right away.
