Dave Hansen ec82687f29 [PATCH] r/o bind mounts: elevate count for xfs timestamp updates
Elevate the write count during the xfs m/ctime updates.

XFS has to do it's own timestamp updates due to an unfortunate VFS
design limitation, so it will have to track writers by itself aswell.

[hch: split out from the touch_atime patch as it's not related to it at all]

Some ioctl()s can cause writes to the filesystem.  Take these, and make them

Lachlan McIlroy 65e67f5165 [XFS] Fix merge failure 2008-04-18 12:59:45 +10:00
Lachlan McIlroy 3b2816be27 [XFS] The forward declarations for the xfs_ioctl() helpers and the
associated comment about gcc behavior really aren't needed; all of these
functions are marked STATIC which includes noinline, and the stack usage
won't be a problem.

This effectively just removes the forward declarations and moves
xfs_ioctl() back to the end of the file.

There is no point to the CONFIG_XFS_SECURITY option; it disables the
ability to set security attributes at runtime, but it does not actually
slim down or remove any code for runtime. Just remove it and always allow

David Chinner 7e20694d91 [XFS] Remove periodic logging of in-core superblock counters.
xfssyncd triggers the logging of superblock counters every 30s if the
filesystem is made with lazy-count=1. This will prevent disks from idling
and spinning down as there will be a log write every 30s. With the way
counter recovery works for lazy-count=1, this code is unnecessary and
provides no real benefit, so just remove it.

indicates a bug somewhere else. Hence catch the error and issue a stack

David Chinner a3f74ffb6d [XFS] Don't block pdflush when writing back inodes
When pdflush is writing back inodes, it can get stuck on inode cluster
buffers that are currently under I/O. This occurs when we write data to
multiple inodes in the same inode cluster at the same time.

Effectively, delayed allocation marks the inode dirty during the data
writeback. Hence if the inode cluster was flushed during the writeback of
the first inode, the writeback of the second inode will block waiting for
the inode cluster write to complete before writing it again for the newly
dirtied inode.

Basically, we want to avoid this from happening so we don't block pdflush
and slow down all of writeback. Hence we introduce a non-blocking async
inode flush flag that pdflush uses. If this flag is set, we use
non-blocking operations (e.g. try locks) whereever we can to avoid
blocking or extra I/O being issued.

Josef Jeff Sipek 1bd960ee2b [XFS] If you mount an XFS filesystem with no mount options at all, then
the "ikeep" option is set rather than "noikeep".

This regression was introduced in 970451.

With no mount options specified, xfs_parseargs() does the following:

int ikeep = 0;

args->flags |= XFSMNT_BARRIER;

args->flags2 |= XFSMNT2_COMPAT_IOSIZE;

if (!options)

goto done;

It only sets the above two options by default and before, it also used to
set XFSMNT_IDELETE by default.

If options are specified, then

if (!(args->flags & XFSMNT_DMAPI) && !ikeep)

args->flags |= XFSMNT_IDELETE;

is executed later on which is skipped by the "goto done;" above.

The solution is to invert the logic.

Jan Blunck 4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

without patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5321639  858418  715768 6895825  6938d1 vmlinux

5320026  858418  715768 6894212  693284 vmlinux

This patch:

Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

Christoph Hellwig 4188c78d95 [XFS] keep i_nlink updated and use proper accessors
To get the read-only bind mounts in -mm to work correctly with XFS we need
to call the drop_nlink and inc_nlink helpers to monitor the link count.
Add calls to these to xfs_bumplink and xfs_droplink and stop copying over
di_nlink to i_nlink in xfs_validate_fields and vn_revalidate.

Christoph Hellwig 222096ae7f [XFS] stop updating inode->i_blocks
The VFS doesn't use i_blocks, it's only used by generic_fillattr and the
generic quota code which XFS doesn't use. In XFS there is one use to check
whether we have an inline or out of line sumlink, but we can replace that
with a check of the XFS_IFINLINE inode flag.

David Chinner 249a8c1124 [XFS] Move AIL pushing into it's own thread
When many hundreds to thousands of threads all try to do simultaneous
transactions and the log is in a tail-pushing situation (i.e. full), we
can get multiple threads walking the AIL list and contending on the AIL
lock.

The AIL push is, in effect, a simple I/O dispatch algorithm complicated by
the ordering constraints placed on it by the transaction subsystem. It
really does not need multiple threads to push on it - even when only a
single CPU is pushing the AIL, it can push the I/O out far faster that
pretty much any disk subsystem can handle.

So, to avoid contention problems stemming from multiple list walkers, move
the list walk off into another thread and simply provide a "target" to
push to. When a thread requires a push, it sets the target and wakes the
push thread, then goes to sleep waiting for the required amount of space
to become available in the log.

This mechanism should also be a lot fairer under heavy load as the waiters
will queue in arrival order, rather than queuing in "who completed a push
first" order.

Also, by moving the pushing to a separate thread we can do more
effectively overload detection and prevention as we can keep context from
loop iteration to loop iteration. That is, we can push only part of the
list each loop and not have to loop back to the start of the list every
time we run. This should also help by reducing the number of items we try
to lock and/or push items that we cannot move.

Note that this patch is not intended to solve the inefficiencies in the
AIL structure and the associated issues with extremely large list
contents. That needs to be addresses separately; parallel access would
cause problems to any new structure as well, so I'm only aiming to isolate
the structure from unbounded parallelism here.

Christoph Hellwig 4576758db5 [XFS] use generic_permission
Now that all direct caller of xfs_iaccess are gone we can kill xfs_iaccess
and xfs_access and just use generic_permission with a check_acl callback.
This is required for the per-mount read-only patchset in -mm to work
properly with XFS.

Christoph Hellwig f71354bc3a [XFS] Cleanup various fid related bits:
- merge xfs_fid2 into it's only caller xfs_dm_inode_to_fh.
- remove xfs_vget and opencode it in the two callers, simplifying
  both of them by avoiding the awkward calling convetion.
- assign directly to the dm_fid_t members in various places in the
  dmapi code instead of casting them to xfs_fid_t first (which
  is identical to dm_fid_t)

Christoph Hellwig a9759f2de3 [XFS] kill superflous buffer locking (2nd attempt)
There is no need to lock any page in xfs_buf.c because we operate on our
own address_space and all locking is covered by the buffer semaphore. If
we ever switch back to main blockdeive address_space as suggested e.g. for
fsblock with a similar scheme the locking will have to be totally revised
anyway because the current scheme is neither correct nor coherent with
itself.

The BPCSHIFT based macros, btoc*, ctob*, offtoc* and ctooff are either not
used or don't need to be used. The NDPP, NDPP, NBBY macros don't need to
be used but instead are replaced directly by PAGE_SIZE and PAGE_CACHE_SIZE
where appropriate. Initial patch and motivation from Nicolas Kaiser.

Eric Sandeen 71ddabb94a [XFS] optimize XFS_IS_REALTIME_INODE w/o realtime config
Use XFS_IS_REALTIME_INODE in more places, and #define it to 0 if
CONFIG_XFS_RT is off. This should be safe because mount checks in
xfs_rtmount_init:

so if we get mounted w/o CONFIG_XFS_RT, no realtime inodes should be
encountered after that.

Defining XFS_IS_REALTIME_INODE to 0 saves a bit of stack space,
presumeably gcc can optimize around the various "if (0)" type checks:

xfs_alloc_file_space -8 xfs_bmap_adjacent -16 xfs_bmapi -8
xfs_bmap_rtalloc -16 xfs_bunmapi -28 xfs_free_file_space -64 xfs_imap +8
<-- ? hmm. xfs_iomap_write_direct -12 xfs_qm_dqusage_adjust -4
xfs_qm_vop_chown_reserve -4
