      ocfs2: Remove i_generation from inode lock names · 24c19ef4
      Mark Fasheh 提交于
      OCFS2 puts inode meta data in the "lock value block" provided by the DLM.
      Typically, i_generation is encoded in the lock name so that a deleted inode
      on and a new one in the same block don't share the same lvb.
      
      Unfortunately, that scheme means that the read in ocfs2_read_locked_inode()
      is potentially thrown away as soon as the meta data lock is taken - we
      cannot encode the lock name without first knowing i_generation, which
      requires a disk read.
      
      This patch encodes i_generation in the inode meta data lvb, and removes the
      value from the inode meta data lock name. This way, the read can be covered
      by a lock, and at the same time we can distinguish between an up to date and
      a stale LVB.
      
      This will help cold-cache stat(2) performance in particular.
      
      Since this patch changes the protocol version, we take the opportunity to do
      a minor re-organization of two of the LVB fields.

      ocfs2: manually d_move() during ocfs2_rename() · 1ba9da2f
      Mark Fasheh 提交于
      Make use of FS_RENAME_DOES_D_MOVE to avoid a race condition that can occur
      during ->rename() if we d_move() outside of the parent directory cluster
      locks, and another node discovers the new name (created during the rename)
      and unlinks it. d_move() will unconditionally rehash a dentry - which will
      leave stale data in the system.

      [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] cpuset memory spread: slab cache filesystems · 4b6a9316
      Paul Jackson 提交于
      Mark file system inode and similar slab caches subject to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD
      memory spreading.
      
      If a slab cache is marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, then anytime that a task that's
      in a cpuset with the 'memory_spread_slab' option enabled goes to allocate
      from such a slab cache, the allocations are spread evenly over all the
      memory nodes (task->mems_allowed) allowed to that task, instead of favoring
      allocation on the node local to the current cpu.
      
      The following inode and similar caches are marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD:

      The choice of which slab caches to so mark was quite simple.  I marked
      those already marked SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT, except for fs/xfs, dentry_cache,
      inode_cache, and buffer_head, which were marked in a previous patch.  Even
      though SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT is for a different purpose, it marks the same
      potentially large file system i/o related slab caches as we need for memory
      spreading.
      
      Given that the rule now becomes "wherever you would have used a
      SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT slab cache flag before (usually the inode cache), use
      the SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag too", this should be easy enough to maintain.
      Future file system writers will just copy one of the existing file system
      slab cache setups and tend to get it right without thinking.

      [PATCH] slab: Remove SLAB_NO_REAP option · ac2b898c
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      SLAB_NO_REAP is documented as an option that will cause this slab not to be
      reaped under memory pressure.  However, that is not what happens.  The only
      thing that SLAB_NO_REAP controls at the moment is the reclaim of the unused
      slab elements that were allocated in batch in cache_reap().  Cache_reap()
      is run every few seconds independently of memory pressure.
      
      Could we remove the whole thing?  Its only used by three slabs anyways and
      I cannot find a reason for having this option.
      
      There is an additional problem with SLAB_NO_REAP.  If set then the recovery
      of objects from alien caches is switched off.  Objects not freed on the
      same node where they were initially allocated will only be reused if a
      certain amount of objects accumulates from one alien node (not very likely)
      or if the cache is explicitly shrunk.  (Strangely __cache_shrink does not
      check for SLAB_NO_REAP)
      
      Getting rid of SLAB_NO_REAP fixes the problems with alien cache freeing.
