10090be25c [XFS] cleanup vnode useage in xfs_iget.c
Get rid of vnode useage in xfs_iget.c and pass Linux inode / xfs_inode
where apropinquate. And kill some useless helpers while we're at it.

6e7f75eafb [XFS] cleanup vnode useage in xfs_ioctl.c
xfs_ioctl.c passes around vnode pointers quite a lot, but all places
already have the Linux inode which is identical to the vnode these days.
Clean the code up to always use the Linux inode.

4ca488eb45 [XFS] Kill off xfs_statvfs.
We were already filling the Linux struct statfs anyway, and doing this
trivial task directly in xfs_fs_statfs makes the code quite a bit cleaner.
While I was at it I also moved copying attributes that don't change over
the lifetime of the filesystem outside the superblock lock.

xfs_fs_fill_super used to get the magic number and blocksize through
xfs_statvfs, but assigning them directly is a lot cleaner and will save
some stack space during mount.

613d70436c [XFS] kill xfs_iocore_t
xfs_iocore_t is a structure embedded in xfs_inode. Except for one field it
just duplicates fields already in xfs_inode, and there is nothing this
abstraction buys us on XFS/Linux. This patch removes it and shrinks source
and binary size of xfs aswell as shrinking the size of xfs_inode by 60/44
bytes in debug/non-debug builds.

541d7d3c4b [XFS] kill unnessecary ioops indirection
Currently there is an indirection called ioops in the XFS data I/O path.
Various functions are called by functions pointers, but there is no
coherence in what this is for, and of course for XFS itself it's entirely
unused. This patch removes it instead and significantly reduces source and
binary size of XFS while making maintaince easier.

it has nothing in common with the other cases. Instead check for the
shutdown filesystem in xfs_end_bio_unwritten and perform a direct call to
xfs_iomap_write_unwritten (which should be renamed to something more

aea6ad0ce5 [XFS] fix unaligned access in readdir
This patch should fix the issue seen on Alpha with unaligned accesses in
the new readdir code. By aligning each dirent to sizeof(u64) we'll avoid
unaligned accesses. To make doubly sure we're not hitting problems also
rearrange struct hack_dirent to avoid holes.

4743e0ec12 [XFS] Initialise current offset in xfs_file_readdir correctly
After reading the directory contents into the temporary buffer, we grab
each dirent and pass it to filldir witht eh current offset of the dirent.
The current offset was not being set for the first dirent in the temporary
buffer, which coul dresult in bad offsets being set in the f_pos field
result in looping and duplicate entries being returned from readdir.

bad60fdd14 [XFS] Fix mknod regression
This was broken by my '[XFS] simplify xfs_create/mknod/symlink prototype',
which assigned the re-shuffled ondisk dev_t back to the rdev variable in
xfs_vn_mknod. Because of that i_rdev is set to the ondisk dev_t instead of
the linux dev_t later down the function.

Fortunately the fix for it is trivial: we can just remove the assignment
because xfs_revalidate_inode has done the proper job before unlocking the
inode.

041388b54e [XFS] Put the correct offset in dirent d_off
The recent filldir regression fix was not putting the correct d_off in
each dirent. This was resulting in incorrect cookies being passed to dmapi
ioctls and the wrong offset appearing in the dirents. readdir was
unaffected as the filp->f_pos was being updated with the correct offset
and this was being written into the last dirent in each buffer. Fix the
XFS code to do the right thing.

cf10e82bdc [XFS] Fix xfs_ichgtime()s broken usage of I_SYNC
The recent I_LOCK->I_SYNC changes mistakenly changed xfs_ichgtime to look
at I_SYNC instead of I_LOCK. This was incorrect and prevents newly created
inodes from moving to the dirty list. Change this to the correct check
which is for I_NEW, not I_LOCK or I_SYNC so that behaviour is correct.

d1afb678ce [XFS] Fixed a few bugs in xfs_buf_associate_memory()
- calculation of 'page_count' was incorrect as it did not
  consider the offset of 'mem' into the first page. The
  logic to bump 'page_count' didn't work if 'len' was <=
  PAGE_CACHE_SIZE (ie offset = 3k, len = 2k).
- setting b_buffer_length to 'len' is incorrect if 'offset'
  is > 0. Set it to the total length of the buffer.
- I suspect that passing a non-aligned address into
  mem_to_page() for the first page may have been causing
  issues - don't know but just tidy up that code anyway.

cd57e594ad [XFS] 971064 Various fixups for xfs_bulkstat().
- sanity check for NULL user buffer in xfs_ioc_bulkstat[_compat]()
- remove the special case for XFS_IOC_FSBULKSTAT with count == 1. This
  special case causes bulkstat to fail because the special case uses
  xfs_bulkstat_single() instead of xfs_bulkstat() and the two functions
  have different semantics.  xfs_bulkstat() will return the next inode
  after the one supplied while skipping internal inodes (ie quota inodes).
  xfs_bulkstate_single() will only lookup the inode supplied and return
  an error if it is an internal inode.
- in xfs_bulkstat(), need to initialise 'lastino' to the inode supplied
  so in cases were we return without examining any inodes the scan wont
  restart back at zero.
- sanity check for valid *ubcountp values. Cannot sanity check for valid
  ubuffer here because some users of xfs_bulkstat() don't supply a buffer.
- checks against 'ubleft' (the space left in the user's buffer) should be
  against 'statstruct_size' which is the supplied minimum object size.
  The mixture of checks against statstruct_size and 0 was one of the
  reasons we were skipping inodes.
- if the formatter function returns BULKSTAT_RV_NOTHING and an error and
  the error is not ENOENT or EINVAL then we need to abort the scan. ENOENT
  is for inodes that are no longer valid and we just skip them. EINVAL is
  returned if we try to lookup an internal inode so we skip them too. For
  a DMF scan if the inode and DMF attribute cannot fit into the space left
  in the user's buffer it would return ERANGE. We didn't handle this error
  and skipped the inode. We would continue to skip inodes until one fitted
  into the user's buffer or we completed the scan.
- put back the recalculation of agino (that got removed with the last fix)
  at the end of the while loop. This is because the code at the start of
  the loop expects agino to be the last inode examined if it is non-zero.
- if we found some inodes but then encountered an error, return success
  this time and the error next time. If the formatter aborted with ENOMEM
  we will now return this error but only if we couldn't read any inodes.
  Previously if we encountered ENOMEM without reading any inodes we
  returned a zero count and no error which falsely indicated the scan was
  complete.

>
> 1. large file is written
> 2. after 30 seconds, nr_dirty goes down by 1024
> 3. then for some time (< 30 sec) nothing happens (disk idle)

It can be produced by the following test scheme:

# cat bin/test-writeback.sh
grep nr_dirty /proc/vmstat
echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/inode_debug
dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/x bs=1K count=204800&
while true; do grep nr_dirty /proc/vmstat; sleep 1; done

549                 }

More debug efforts show that __block_write_full_page()
never has the chance to call submit_bh() for that big dirty file:
the buffer head is *clean*. So basicly no page io is issued by
__block_write_full_page(), hence pages_skipped goes up.

Also the comment in generic_sync_sb_inodes():

544                         /*
545                          * writeback is not making progress due to locked
546                          * buffers.  Skip this inode for now.
547                          */

and the comment in __block_write_full_page():

1713                 /*
1714                  * The page was marked dirty, but the buffers were
1715                  * clean.  Someone wrote them back by hand with
1716                  * ll_rw_block/submit_bh.  A rare case.
1717                  */

do not quite agree with each other. The page writeback should be skipped for
'locked buffer', but here it is 'clean buffer'!

This patch fixes this bug. Though I'm not sure why __block_write_full_page()
is called only to do nothing and who actually issued the writeback for us.

This is the two possible new behaviors after the patch:

1) pretty nice: wait 30s and write ALL:)
2) not so good:
	- during the dd: ~16M
	- after 30s:      ~4M
	- after 5s:       ~4M
	- after 5s:     ~176M

The next patch will fix case (2).

the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions.  The object
pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer.

Convert

to

        ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object)

7f01507234 [XFS] eagerly remove vmap mappings to avoid upsetting Xen
XFS leaves stray mappings around when it vmaps memory to make it virtually
contigious. This upsets Xen if one of those pages is being recycled into a
pagetable, since it finds an extra writable mapping of the page.

This patch solves the problem in a brute force way, by making XFS always
eagerly unmap its mappings.

150f29ef2e [XFS] no longer using io_vnode, as was remaining from 23 cherrypick
Because we cherrypicked SGI-Modid xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:29675a
and it depended on the sgi mod which removed io_vnode (which was
not cherrypicked in 23) it was hand modified.
This fixes things back up (to the originial mod) now we have moved
on again.

e893bffd4c [XFS] avoid race in sync_inodes() that can fail to write out all dirty data
In xfs_fs_sync_super() treat a sync the same as a filesystem freeze. This
is needed to force the log to disk for inodes which are not marked dirty
in the Linux inode (the inodes are marked dirty on completion of the log
I/O) and so sync_inodes() will not flush them.

In xfs_fs_write_inode() a synchronous flush will not get an EAGAIN from
xfs_inode_flush() and if an asynchronous flush returns EAGAIN we should
pass it on to the caller. If we get an error while flushing the inode then
re-dirty it so we can try again later.

5903c4956f [XFS] ensure file size is logged on synchronous writes
Synchronous writes currently log inode changes before syncing pages to
disk. Since the file size is updated on I/O completion we wont be writing
out the updated file size and if we crash the file will have the wrong
size. This change moves the logging after the syncing of the pages to
ensure we log the correct file size.

All flags are added to xfs_mount's m_flag instead. Note that the 32bit
inode flag was duplicated in both of them, but only cleared in the mount
when it was not nessecary due to the filesystem beeing small enough. Two
flags are still required here - one to indicate the mount option setting,
and one to indicate if it applies or not.
