It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries which point into the (freed) init text of modules. These could cause future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup. The only case I know of is kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n). Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this patch is more general. This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they use the standard lib/extable.c sort code. Alpha and IA64 use relative addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation. Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE, yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib. It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of actually trimming them.

Impact: API cleanup For historical reasons, 'bool' parameters must be an int, not a bool. But there are around 600 users, so a conversion seems like useless churn. So we use __same_type() to distinguish, and handle both cases. Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> -

Impact: new API __builtin_types_compatible_p() is a little awkward to use: it takes two types rather than types or variables, and it's just damn long. (typeof(type) == type, so this works on types as well as vars). Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> -

Impact: cleanup Rather than hack KPARAM_KMALLOCED into the perm field, separate it out. Since the perm field was 32 bits and only needs 16, we don't add bloat. Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> -

It takes an 'int' for historical reasons, and there are only two users: simply switch it over to bool. The other user (uvesafb.c) will get a (harmless-on-x86) warning until the next patch is applied.

fs-internal parts of qnx4_fs.h taken to fs/qnx4/qnx4.h, includes adjusted, qnx4_fs.h doesn't need unifdef anymore. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> -
由 Al Viro 提交于
* have directory operations use mark_buffer_dirty_inode(), so that sync_mapping_buffers() would get those. * make qnx4_write_inode() honour its last argument. * get rid of insane copies of very ancient "walk the indirect blocks" in qnx4/fsync - they never matched the actual fs layout and, fortunately, never'd been called. Again, all this junk is not needed; ->fsync() should just do sync_mapping_buffers + sync_inode (and if we implement block allocation for qnx4, we'll need to use mark_buffer_dirty_inode() for extent blocks) Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> -

The only user of the i_cindex element in the inode structure is used is by the firewire drivers. As part of an attempt to slim down the inode structure to save memory --- since a typical Linux system will have hundreds of thousands if not millions of inodes cached, a reduction in the size inode has high leverage. The firewire driver does not need i_cindex in any fast path, so it's simple enough to calculate when it is needed, instead of wasting space in the inode structure.

Currently the VFS calls vfs_dq_sync to sync out disk quotas for a given superblock. This is a small wrapper around sync_dquots which for the case of a non-NULL superblock is a small wrapper around quota_sync_sb. Just make quota_sync_sb global (rename it to sync_quota_sb) and call it directly. Also call it directly for those cases in quota.c that have a superblock and leave sync_dquots purely an iterator over sync_quota_sb and remove it's superblock argument. To make this nicer move the check for the lack of a quota_sync method from the callers into sync_quota_sb.

It is unnecessarily fragile to have two places (fsync_super() and do_sync()) doing data integrity sync of the filesystem. Alter __fsync_super() to accommodate needs of both callers and use it. So after this patch __fsync_super() is the only place where we gather all the calls needed to properly send all data on a filesystem to disk. Nice bonus is that we get a complete livelock avoidance and write_supers() is now only used for periodic writeback of superblocks. sync_blockdevs() introduced a couple of patches ago is gone now.

__fsync_super() does the same thing as fsync_super(). So change the only caller to use fsync_super() and make __fsync_super() static. This removes unnecessarily duplicated call to sync_blockdev() and prepares ground for the changes to __fsync_super() in the following patches.

This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about another 2% after the first patch. Before: avg = 462.286 std = 5.46106 After: avg = 453.12 std = 9.58257 (50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence) It does this by introducing mnt_clone_write, which avoids some heavyweight operations of mnt_want_write if called on a vfsmount which we know already has a write count; and mnt_want_write_file, which can call mnt_clone_write if the file is open for write. After these two patches, mnt_want_write and mnt_drop_write go from 7% on the profile down to 1.3% (including mnt_clone_write). [AV: mnt_want_write_file() should take file alone and derive mnt from it; not only all callers have that form, but that's the only mnt about which we know that it's already held for write if file is opened for write] Cc: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NNick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about 8%. lat_mmap is set up basically to mmap a 64MB file on tmpfs, fault in its pages, then unmap it. A microbenchmark yes, but it exercises some important paths in the mm. Before: avg = 501.9 std = 14.7773 After: avg = 462.286 std = 5.46106 (50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence, but there is quite a bit of variation there still) It does this by removing the complex per-cpu locking and counter-cache and replaces it with a percpu counter in struct vfsmount. This makes the code much simpler, and avoids spinlocks (although the msync is still pretty costly, unfortunately). It results in about 900 bytes smaller code too. It does increase the size of a vfsmount, however. It should also give a speedup on large systems if CPUs are frequently operating on different mounts (because the existing scheme has to operate on an atomic in the struct vfsmount when switching between mounts). But I'm most interested in the single threaded path performance for the moment.

New field: nd->root. When pathname resolution wants to know the root, check if nd->root.mnt is non-NULL; use nd->root if it is, otherwise copy current->fs->root there. After path_walk() is finished, we check if we'd got a cached value in nd->root and drop it. Before calling path_walk() we should either set nd->root.mnt to NULL *or* copy (and pin down) some path to nd->root. In the latter case we won't be looking at current->fs->root at all.

fsnotify tells its listeners explicitly when an event happened on the given inode verses on the child of the given inode. (see __fsnotify_parent) However, the semantics of fsnotify_move() are such that we deliver events directly to the two parent directories in question (old_dir and new_dir) directly without using the __fsnotify_parent() call. fsnotify should be adding FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD for the notifications to these parents.

Reimplement inotify_user using fsnotify. This should be feature for feature exactly the same as the original inotify_user.
