Sunil Mushran 9af0b38ff3 ocfs2/net: Use wait_event() in o2net_send_message_vec()
Replace wait_event_interruptible() with wait_event() in o2net_send_message_vec().
This is because this function is called by the dlm that expects signals to be
blocked.

Tao Ma 6b791bcc8b ocfs2: Adjust rightmost path in ocfs2_add_branch.
In ocfs2_add_branch, we use the rightmost rec of the leaf extent block
to generate the e_cpos for the newly added branch. In the most case, it
is OK but if the parent extent block's rightmost rec covers more clusters
than the leaf does, it will cause kernel panic if we insert some clusters
in it. The message is something like:
(7445,1):ocfs2_insert_at_leaf:3775 ERROR: bug expression:
le16_to_cpu(el->l_next_free_rec) >= le16_to_cpu(el->l_count)
(7445,1):ocfs2_insert_at_leaf:3775 ERROR: inode 66053, depth 0, count 28,
next free 28, rec.cpos 270, rec.clusters 1, insert.cpos 275, insert.clusters 1
 [<fa7ad565>] ? ocfs2_do_insert_extent+0xb58/0xda0 [ocfs2]
 [<fa7b08f2>] ? ocfs2_insert_extent+0x5bd/0x6ba [ocfs2]
 [<fa7b1b8b>] ? ocfs2_add_clusters_in_btree+0x37f/0x564 [ocfs2]
...

The panic can be easily reproduced by the following small test case
(with bs=512, cs=4K, and I remove all the error handling so that it looks
clear enough for reading).

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	int fd, i;
	char buf[5] = "test";

	fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR|O_CREAT);

	for (i = 0; i < 30; i++) {
		lseek(fd, 40960 * i, SEEK_SET);
		write(fd, buf, 5);
	}

	ftruncate(fd, 1146880);

	lseek(fd, 1126400, SEEK_SET);
	write(fd, buf, 5);

	close(fd);

	return 0;
}

The reason of the panic is that:
the 30 writes and the ftruncate makes the file's extent list looks like:

	Tree Depth: 1   Count: 19   Next Free Rec: 1
	## Offset        Clusters       Block#
	0  0             280            86183
	SubAlloc Bit: 7   SubAlloc Slot: 0
	Blknum: 86183   Next Leaf: 0
	CRC32: 00000000   ECC: 0000
	Tree Depth: 0   Count: 28   Next Free Rec: 28
	## Offset        Clusters       Block#          Flags
	0  0             1              143368          0x0
	1  10            1              143376          0x0
	...
	26 260           1              143576          0x0
	27 270           1              143584          0x0

Now another write at 1126400(275 cluster) whiich will write at the gap
between 271 and 280 will trigger ocfs2_add_branch, but the result after
the function looks like:
	Tree Depth: 1   Count: 19   Next Free Rec: 2
	## Offset        Clusters       Block#
	0  0             280            86183
	1  271           0             143592
So the extent record is intersected and make the following operation bug out.

This patch just try to remove the gap before we add the new branch, so that
the root(branch) rightmost rec will cover the same right position. So in the
above case, before adding branch the tree will be changed to
	Tree Depth: 1   Count: 19   Next Free Rec: 1
	## Offset        Clusters       Block#
	0  0             271            86183
	SubAlloc Bit: 7   SubAlloc Slot: 0
	Blknum: 86183   Next Leaf: 0
	CRC32: 00000000   ECC: 0000
	Tree Depth: 0   Count: 28   Next Free Rec: 28
	## Offset        Clusters       Block#          Flags
	0  0             1              143368          0x0
	1  10            1              143376          0x0
	...
	26 260           1              143576          0x0
	27 270           1              143584          0x0
And after branch add, the tree looks like
	Tree Depth: 1   Count: 19   Next Free Rec: 2
	## Offset        Clusters       Block#
	0  0             271            86183
	1  271           0             143592

Mike Frysinger 0a8eba9b7f ramfs: ignore unknown mount options
On systems where CONFIG_SHMEM is disabled, mounting tmpfs filesystems can
fail when tmpfs options are used.  This is because tmpfs creates a small
wrapper around ramfs which rejects unknown options, and ramfs itself only
supports a tiny subset of what tmpfs supports.  This makes it pretty hard
to use the same userspace systems across different configuration systems.
As such, ramfs should ignore the tmpfs options when tmpfs is merely a
wrapper around ramfs.

This used to work before commit c3b1b1cbf0 as previously, ramfs would
ignore all options.  But now, we get:
ramfs: bad mount option: size=10M
mount: mounting mdev on /dev failed: Invalid argument

Another option might be to restore the previous behavior, where ramfs
simply ignored all unknown mount options ... which is what Hugh prefers.

glocks, logging and bmap. These points have been chosen because
they allow inspection of the major internal functions of GFS2

any major changes as the filesystem evolves.

Ryusuke Konishi e59399d010 nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount function
nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance.  Even
though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or
remount, the mount state was not properly protected in
nilfs_remount().

Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem;
nilfs_get_sb() holds:

  1. bdev->bd_mount_sem
  2. sb->s_umount  (sget acquires)

and nilfs_remount() holds:

  1. sb->s_umount  (locked by the caller in vfs)
  2. bdev->bd_mount_sem

To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting
super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount
state protection in nilfs_remount().

With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and
the lock order reversal will be resolved.  And the new rw-semaphore,
nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the
modification from nilfs_error function.

This simplifies the test function passed on the remaining sget()

Instead of checking mount type (i.e. ro-mount/rw-mount/snapshot mount)

Ryusuke Konishi 33c8e57c86 nilfs2: get rid of sget use for acquiring nilfs object
This will change the way to obtain nilfs object in nilfs_get_sb()
function.

Previously, a preliminary sget() call was performed, and the nilfs
object was acquired from a super block instance found by the sget()
call.

This patch, instead, instroduces a new dedicated function
find_or_create_nilfs(); as the name implies, the function finds an
existent nilfs object from a global list or creates a new one if no
object is found on the device.

Some filesystems can call in to sync an inode that is still in the
I_NEW state (eg. ext family, when mounted with -osync). This is OK
because the filesystem has sole access to the new inode, so it can
modify i_state without races (because no other thread should be
modifying it, by definition of I_NEW). Ie. a false positive, so
remove the warnings.

The races are described here 7ef0d7377c,
which is also where the warnings were introduced.

Theodore Ts'o 9fd5746fd3 fs: Remove i_cindex from struct inode
The only user of the i_cindex element in the inode structure is used
is by the firewire drivers.  As part of an attempt to slim down the
inode structure to save memory --- since a typical Linux system will
have hundreds of thousands if not millions of inodes cached, a
reduction in the size inode has high leverage.

The firewire driver does not need i_cindex in any fast path, so it's
simple enough to calculate when it is needed, instead of wasting space
in the inode structure.

We can't run into contention on it.  All other callers of lock_super()
either hold s_umount (and we have it exclusive) or hold an active
reference to superblock in question, which prevents the call of
generic_shutdown_super() while the reference is held.  So we can
replace lock_super(s) with get_fs_excl() in generic_shutdown_super()
(and corresponding change for unlock_super(), of course).

Since ext4 expects s_lock held for its put_super, take lock_super()
into it.  The rest of filesystems do not care at all.

Christoph Hellwig 850b201b08 quota: cleanup dquota sync functions (version 4)
Currently the VFS calls vfs_dq_sync to sync out disk quotas for a given
superblock.  This is a small wrapper around sync_dquots which for the
case of a non-NULL superblock is a small wrapper around quota_sync_sb.

Just make quota_sync_sb global (rename it to sync_quota_sb) and call it
directly.  Also call it directly for those cases in quota.c that have a
superblock and leave sync_dquots purely an iterator over sync_quota_sb and

To make this nicer move the check for the lack of a quota_sync method
from the callers into sync_quota_sb.

Jan Kara 5cee5815d1 vfs: Make sys_sync() use fsync_super() (version 4)
It is unnecessarily fragile to have two places (fsync_super() and do_sync())
doing data integrity sync of the filesystem. Alter __fsync_super() to
accommodate needs of both callers and use it. So after this patch
__fsync_super() is the only place where we gather all the calls needed to
properly send all data on a filesystem to disk.

Nice bonus is that we get a complete livelock avoidance and write_supers()
is now only used for periodic writeback of superblocks.

sync_blockdevs() introduced a couple of patches ago is gone now.

Jan Kara 429479f031 vfs: Make __fsync_super() a static function (version 4)
__fsync_super() does the same thing as fsync_super(). So change the only
caller to use fsync_super() and make __fsync_super() static. This removes
unnecessarily duplicated call to sync_blockdev() and prepares ground
for the changes to __fsync_super() in the following patches.

Jan Kara bfe881255c vfs: Call ->sync_fs() even if s_dirt is 0 (version 4)
sync_filesystems() has a condition that if wait == 0 and s_dirt == 0, then
->sync_fs() isn't called. This does not really make much sence since s_dirt is
generally used by a filesystem to mean that ->write_super() needs to be called.
But ->sync_fs() does different things. I even suspect that some filesystems
(btrfs?) sets s_dirt just to fool this logic.

Jan Kara 5a3e5cb8e0 vfs: Fix sys_sync() and fsync_super() reliability (version 4)
So far, do_sync() called:
  sync_inodes(0);
  sync_supers();
  sync_filesystems(0);
  sync_filesystems(1);
  sync_inodes(1);

This ordering makes it kind of hard for filesystems as sync_inodes(0) need not
submit all the IO (for example it skips inodes with I_SYNC set) so e.g. forcing
transaction to disk in ->sync_fs() is not really enough. Therefore sys_sync has
not been completely reliable on some filesystems (ext3, ext4, reiserfs, ocfs2
and others are hit by this) when racing e.g. with background writeback. A
similar problem hits also other filesystems (e.g. ext2) because of
write_supers() being called before the sync_inodes(1).

Change the ordering of calls in do_sync() - this requires a new function
sync_blockdevs() to preserve the property that block devices are always synced
after write_super() / sync_fs() call.

The same issue is fixed in __fsync_super() function used on umount /
remount read-only.

npiggin@suse.de 96029c4e09 fs: introduce mnt_clone_write
This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about another 2% after the
first patch.

Before:
 avg = 462.286
 std = 5.46106

After:
 avg = 453.12
 std = 9.58257

(50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence)

It does this by introducing mnt_clone_write, which avoids some heavyweight
operations of mnt_want_write if called on a vfsmount which we know already
has a write count; and mnt_want_write_file, which can call mnt_clone_write
if the file is open for write.

After these two patches, mnt_want_write and mnt_drop_write go from 7% on
the profile down to 1.3% (including mnt_clone_write).

[AV: mnt_want_write_file() should take file alone and derive mnt from it;
not only all callers have that form, but that's the only mnt about which
we know that it's already held for write if file is opened for write]

npiggin@suse.de d3ef3d7351 fs: mnt_want_write speedup
This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about 8%. lat_mmap is set up
basically to mmap a 64MB file on tmpfs, fault in its pages, then unmap it.
A microbenchmark yes, but it exercises some important paths in the mm.

Before:
 avg = 501.9
 std = 14.7773

After:
 avg = 462.286
 std = 5.46106

(50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence, but there is quite
a bit of variation there still)

It does this by removing the complex per-cpu locking and counter-cache and
replaces it with a percpu counter in struct vfsmount. This makes the code
much simpler, and avoids spinlocks (although the msync is still pretty
costly, unfortunately). It results in about 900 bytes smaller code too. It
does increase the size of a vfsmount, however.

It should also give a speedup on large systems if CPUs are frequently operating
on different mounts (because the existing scheme has to operate on an atomic in
the struct vfsmount when switching between mounts). But I'm most interested in
the single threaded path performance for the moment.
