2010-10-27ext4: use sb_issue_zeroout in ext4_ext_zerooutLukas Czerner

2010-10-27ext4: fix EOFBLOCKS_FL handlingTheodore Ts'o
It turns out we have several problems with how EOFBLOCKS_FL is handled. First of all, there was a fencepost error where we were not clearing the EOFBLOCKS_FL when fill in the last uninitialized block, but rather when we allocate the next block _after_ the uninitalized block. Secondly we were not testing to see if we needed to clear the EOFBLOCKS_FL when writing to the file O_DIRECT or when were converting an uninitialized block (which is the most common case).

2010-05-17ext4: Clear the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag only when warrantedTheodore Ts'o
Dimitry Monakhov discovered an edge case where it was possible for the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag could get cleared unnecessarily. This is true; I have a test case that can be exercised via downloading and decompressing the file: wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/ext4-testcases/eofblocks-fl-test-case.img.bz2 bunzip2 eofblocks-fl-test-case.img dd if=/dev/zero of=eofblocks-fl-test-case.img bs=1k seek=17925 bs=1k count=1 conv=notrunc However, triggering it in real life is highly unlikely since it requires an extremely fragmented sparse file with a hole in exactly the right place in the extent tree. (It actually took quite a bit of work to generate this test case.) Still, it's nice to get even extreme corner cases to be correct, so this patch makes sure that we don't clear the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL incorrectly even in this corner case.

2010-05-16ext4: Avoid crashing on NULL ptr dereference on a filesystem errorTheodore Ts'o
If the EOFBLOCK_FL flag is set when it should not be and the inode is zero length, then eh_entries is zero, and ex is NULL, so dereferencing ex to print ex->ee_block causes a kernel OOPS in ext4_ext_map_blocks(). On top of that, the error message which is printed isn't very helpful. So we fix this by printing something more explanatory which doesn't involve trying to print ex->ee_block.

2010-05-16ext4: Do not zero out uninitialized extents beyond i_sizeDmitry Monakhov
The extents code will sometimes zero out blocks and mark them as initialized instead of splitting an extent into several smaller ones. This optimization however, causes problems if the extent is beyond i_size because fsck will complain if there are uninitialized blocks after i_size as this can not be distinguished from an inode that has an incorrect i_size field. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15742 Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2010-03-04ext4: use ext4_get_block_write in buffer writeJiaying Zhang
Allocate uninitialized extent before ext4 buffer write and convert the extent to initialized after io completes. The purpose is to make sure an extent can only be marked initialized after it has been written with new data so we can safely drop the i_mutex lock in ext4 DIO read without exposing stale data. This helps to improve multi-thread DIO read performance on high-speed disks. Skip the nobh and data=journal mount cases to make things simple for now.

2010-03-04ext4: correctly calculate number of blocks for fiemapLeonard Michlmayr
ext4_fiemap() rounds the length of the requested range down to blocksize, which is is not the true number of blocks that cover the requested region.

2010-01-01ext4: Calculate metadata requirements more accuratelyTheodore Ts'o
In the past, ext4_calc_metadata_amount(), and its sub-functions ext4_ext_calc_metadata_amount() and ext4_indirect_calc_metadata_amount() badly over-estimated the number of metadata blocks that might be required for delayed allocation blocks. This didn't matter as much when functions which managed the reserved metadata blocks were more aggressive about dropping reserved metadata blocks as delayed allocation blocks were written, but unfortunately they were too aggressive. This was fixed in commit 0637c6f, but as a result the over-estimation by ext4_calc_metadata_amount() would lead to reserving 2-3 times the number of pending delayed allocation blocks as potentially required metadata blocks. So if there are 1 megabytes of blocks which have been not yet been allocation, up to 3 megabytes of space would get reserved out of the user's quota and from the file system free space pool until all of the inode's data blocks have been allocated. This commit addresses this problem by much more accurately estimating the number of metadata blocks that will be required. It will still somewhat over-estimate the number of blocks needed, since it must make a worst case estimate not knowing which physical blocks will be needed, but it is much more accurate than before.

2009-11-23ext4: call ext4_forget() from ext4_free_blocks()Theodore Ts'o
Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from ext4_free_blocks(). This simplifies the code in a large number of places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into a single place. Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the conversion. As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks. With this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

2009-11-23ext4: make sure directory and symlink blocks are revokedTheodore Ts'o
When an inode gets unlinked, the functions ext4_clear_blocks() and ext4_remove_blocks() call ext4_forget() for all the buffer heads corresponding to the deleted inode's data blocks. If the inode is a directory or a symlink, the is_metadata parameter must be non-zero so ext4_forget() will revoke them via jbd2_journal_revoke(). Otherwise, if these blocks are reused for a data file, and the system crashes before a journal checkpoint, the journal replay could end up corrupting these data blocks.

To prepare for a direct I/O write, we need to split the unwritten extents before submitting the I/O. When no extents needed to be split, ext4_split_unwritten_extents() was incorrectly returning 0 instead of the size of uninitialized extents. This bug caused the wrong return value sent back to VFS code when it gets called from async IO path, leading to an unnecessary fall back to buffered IO.

2009-11-10ext4: fix ext4_ext_direct_IO()'s return value after converting uninit extentsMingming
After a direct I/O request covering an uninitalized extent (i.e., created using the fallocate system call) or a hole in a file, ext4 will convert the uninitialized extent so it is marked as initialized by calling ext4_convert_unwritten_extents(). This function returns zero on success. This return value was getting returned by ext4_direct_IO(); however the file system's direct_IO function is supposed to return the number of bytes read or written on a success. By returning zero, it confused the direct I/O code into falling back to buffered I/O unnecessarily. Signed-off-by: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2009-09-29ext4, jbd2: Drop unneeded printks at mount and unmount timeTheodore Ts'o
There are a number of kernel printk's which are printed when an ext4 filesystem is mounted and unmounted. Disable them to economize space in the system logs. In addition, disabling the mballoc stats by default saves a number of unneeded atomic operations for every block allocation or deallocation. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2009-09-28ext4: async direct IO for holes and fallocate supportMingming Cao
For async direct IO that covers holes or fallocate, the end_io callback function now queued the convertion work on workqueue but don't flush the work rightaway as it might take too long to afford. But when fsync is called after all the data is completed, user expects the metadata also being updated before fsync returns. Thus we need to flush the conversion work when fsync() is called. This patch keep track of a listed of completed async direct io that has a work queued on workqueue. When fsync() is called, it will go through the list and do the conversion.

2009-09-28ext4: Split uninitialized extents for direct I/OMingming Cao
When writing into an unitialized extent via direct I/O, and the direct I/O doesn't exactly cover the unitialized extent, split the extent into uninitialized and initialized extents before submitting the I/O. This avoids needing to deal with an ENOSPC error in the end_io callback that gets used for direct I/O. When the IO is complete, the written extent will be marked as initialized.

2009-08-28ext4: fix extent sanity checking code with AGGRESSIVE_TESTTheodore Ts'o
The extents sanity-checking code depends on the ext4_ext_space_*() functions returning the maximum alloable size for eh_max; however, when the debugging #ifdef AGGRESSIVE_TEST is enabled to test the extent tree handling code, this prevents a normally created ext4 filesystem from being mounted with the errors: Aug 26 15:43:50 bsd086 kernel: [ 96.070277] EXT4-fs error (device sda8): ext4_ext_check_inode: bad header/extent in inode #8: too large eh_max - magic f30a, entries 1, max 4(3), depth 0(0) Aug 26 15:43:50 bsd086 kernel: [ 96.070526] EXT4-fs (sda8): no journal found Bug reported by Akira Fujita.

2009-08-17ext4: Fix possible deadlock between ext4_truncate() and ext4_get_blocks()Jan Kara
During truncate we are sometimes forced to start a new transaction as the amount of blocks to be journaled is both quite large and hard to predict. So far we restarted a transaction while holding i_data_sem and that violates lock ordering because i_data_sem ranks below a transaction start (and it can lead to a real deadlock with ext4_get_blocks() mapping blocks in some page while having a transaction open). We fix the problem by dropping the i_data_sem before restarting the transaction and acquire it afterwards. It's slightly subtle that this works: 1) By the time ext4_truncate() is called, all the page cache for the truncated part of the file is dropped so get_block() should not be called on it (we only have to invalidate extent cache after we reacquire i_data_sem because some extent from not-truncated part could extend also into the part we are going to truncate). 2) Writes, migrate or defrag hold i_mutex so they are stopped for all the time of the truncate.

2009-09-18ext4: Show unwritten extent flag in ext4_ext_show_leaf()Mingming
ext4_ext_show_leaf() will display the leaf extents when extent debugging is enabled. Printing out the unwritten bit is useful for debugging unwritten extent, allow us to see the unwritten extents vs written extents, after the unwritten extents are splitted or converted.
