2013-01-21Ext2: return ENOMEM rather than EIO if sb_getblk failsWang Shilong
As the only reason that sb_getblks fails is that allocation fails. It will be better to use ENOMEM rather than EIO. Signed-off-by: Wang Shilong <wangsl-fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2013-01-21Ext2: use unlikely to improve the efficiency of the kernelWang Shilong
Because the function 'sb_getblk' seldomly fails to return NULL value. It will be better to use unlikely to optimize it. Signed-off-by: Wang shilong <wangsl-fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2012-04-11ext2: Remove s_dirt handlingJan Kara
Places which modify superblock feature / state fields mark the superblock buffer dirty so it is written out by flusher thread. Thus there's no need to set s_dirt there. The only other fields changing in the superblock are the numbers of free blocks, free inodes and s_wtime. There's no real need to write (or even compute) these periodically. Free blocks / inodes counters are recomputed on every mount from group counters anyway and value of s_wtime is only informational and imprecise anyway. So it should be enough to write these opportunistically on mount, remount, umount, and sync_fs times. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2012-01-09ext2/3/4: delete unneeded includes of module.hPaul Gortmaker
Delete any instances of include module.h that were not strictly required. In the case of ext2, the declaration of MODULE_LICENSE etc. were in inode.c but the module_init/exit were in super.c, so relocate the MODULE_LICENCE/AUTHOR block to super.c which makes it consistent with ext3 and ext4 at the same time.

2011-07-22ext2: check xattr name_len before acquiring xattr_sem in ext2_xattr_getWang Sheng-Hui
In ext2_xattr_get(), the code will acquire xattr_sem first, later checks the length of xattr name_len > 255. It's unnecessarily time consuming and also ext2_xattr_set() checks the length before other checks. So move the check before acquiring xattr_sem to make these two functions consistent.

2010-10-25fs: add sync_inode_metadataChristoph Hellwig
Add a new helper to write out the inode using the writeback code, that is including the correct dirty bit and list manipulation. A few of filesystems already opencode this, and a lot of others should be using it instead of using write_inode_now which also writes out the data.

2010-08-09mbcache: Remove unused featuresAndreas Gruenbacher
The mbcache code was written to support a variable number of indexes, but all the existing users use exactly one index. Simplify to code to support only that case. There are also no users of the cache entry free operation, and none of the users keep extra data in cache entries. Remove those features as well.

2010-05-21ext2: Add ext2_sb_info s_lock spinlockJan Blunck
Add a spinlock that protects against concurrent modifications of s_mount_state, s_blocks_last, s_overhead_last and the content of the superblock's buffer pointed to by sbi->s_es. The spinlock is now used in ext2_xattr_update_super_block() which was setting the EXT2_FEATURE_COMPAT_EXT_ATTR flag on the superblock without protection before. Likewise the spinlock is used in ext2_show_options() to have a consistent view of the mount options. This is a preparation patch for removing the BKL from ext2 in the next patch.

2010-03-05dquot: cleanup space allocation / freeing routinesChristoph Hellwig
Get rid of the alloc_space, free_space, reserve_space, claim_space and release_rsv dquot operations - they are always called from the filesystem and if a filesystem really needs their own (which none currently does) it can just call into it's own routine directly. Move shared logic into the common __dquot_alloc_space, dquot_claim_space_nodirty and __dquot_free_space low-level methods, and rationalize the wrappers around it to move as much as possible code into the common block for CONFIG_QUOTA vs not. Also rename all these helpers to be named dquot_* instead of vfs_dq_*. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2009-12-16sanitize xattr handler prototypesChristoph Hellwig
Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr handler methods. This allows using the same methods for multiple handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying attribute. With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch. Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later, e.g. cifs.

2008-04-15vfs: fix possible deadlock in ext2, ext3, ext4 when using xattrsJan Kara
mb_cache_entry_alloc() was allocating cache entries with GFP_KERNEL. But filesystems are calling this function while holding xattr_sem so possible recursion into the fs violates locking ordering of xattr_sem and transaction start / i_mutex for ext2-4. Change mb_cache_entry_alloc() so that filesystems can specify desired gfp mask and use GFP_NOFS from all of them.

2006-02-17[PATCH] fix deadlock in ext2Peter Staubach
Fix a deadlock possible in the ext2 file system implementation. This deadlock occurs when a file is removed from an ext2 file system which was mounted with the "sync" mount option. The problem is that ext2_xattr_delete_inode() was invoking the routine, sync_dirty_buffer(), using a buffer head which was previously locked via lock_buffer(). The first thing that sync_dirty_buffer() does is to lock the buffer head that it was passed. It does this via lock_buffer(). Oops. The solution is to unlock the buffer head in ext2_xattr_delete_inode() before invoking sync_dirty_buffer(). This makes the code in ext2_xattr_delete_inode() obey the same locking rules as all other callers of sync_dirty_buffer() in the ext2 file system implementation.

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!
