From 88b88a66797159949cec32eaab12b4968f6fae2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jaegeuk Kim Date: Mon, 6 Oct 2014 17:39:50 -0700 Subject: f2fs: support atomic writes This patch introduces a very limited functionality for atomic write support. In order to support atomic write, this patch adds two ioctls: o F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE o F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE The database engine should be aware of the following sequence. 1. open -> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE); 2. writes : all the written data will be treated as atomic pages. 3. commit -> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE); : this flushes all the data blocks to the disk, which will be shown all or nothing by f2fs recovery procedure. 4. repeat to #2. The IO pattens should be: ,- START_ATOMIC_WRITE ,- COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE CP | D D D D D D | FSYNC | D D D D | FSYNC ... `- COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim --- fs/f2fs/super.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'fs/f2fs/super.c') diff --git a/fs/f2fs/super.c b/fs/f2fs/super.c index bb6b568d6ad4..41d6f700f4ee 100644 --- a/fs/f2fs/super.c +++ b/fs/f2fs/super.c @@ -373,6 +373,8 @@ static struct inode *f2fs_alloc_inode(struct super_block *sb) fi->i_advise = 0; rwlock_init(&fi->ext.ext_lock); init_rwsem(&fi->i_sem); + INIT_LIST_HEAD(&fi->inmem_pages); + mutex_init(&fi->inmem_lock); set_inode_flag(fi, FI_NEW_INODE); -- cgit v1.2.3
