      [PATCH] read_mapping_page for address space · 090d2b18
      Pekka Enberg 提交于
      Add read_mapping_page() which is used for callers that pass
      mapping->a_ops->readpage as the filler for read_cache_page.  This removes
      some duplication from filesystem code.

      [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to perform statfs with a known root dentry · 726c3342
      David Howells 提交于
      Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock
      pointer.
      
      This complements the get_sb() patch.  That reduced the significance of
      sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there.  However, NFS does
      require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation.  This permits
      the root in the vfsmount to be used instead.
      
      linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build
      successfully.
      
      Interest has also been expressed for use with the FUSE and XFS filesystems.

      [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mount · 454e2398
      David Howells 提交于
      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.

      [PATCH] fix cramfs making duplicate entries in inode cache · a97c9bf3
      Dave Johnson 提交于
      Every time cramfs_lookup() is called to lookup and inode for a dentry,
      get_cramfs_inode() will allocate a new inode without checking to see if that
      inode already exists in the inode cache.
      
      This is fine the first time, but if the dentry cache entry(ies) associated
      with that inode are aged out, but the inode entry is not aged out (which can
      be quite common if the inode has buffer cache linked to it), cramfs_lookup()
      will be called again and another inode will be allocated and added to the
      inode cache creating a duplicate in the inode cache.
      
      The big issue here is that the buffers associated with each inode cache entry
      are not shared between the duplicates!
      
      The older inode entries are now orphaned as no dentry points to it and won't
      be freed until the buffer cache assoicated with them are first freed.  The
      newest entry will have to create all new buffer cache for each part of its
      file as the old buffer cache is now orphaned as well.
      
      Patch below fixes this by making get_cramfs_inode() use the inode cache before
      blindly creating a new entry every time.  This eliminates the duplicate inodes
      and duplicate buffer cache.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
