Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds. Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id(). Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be addressed by later patches. Signed-off-by:

If we get a race looking up a reclaimable inode, we can end up with the winner proceeding to use the inode before it has been completely re-initialised. This is a Bad Thing. Fix the race by checking whether we are still initialising the inod eonce we have a reference to it, and if so wait for the initialisation to complete before continuing. While there, fix a leaked reference count in the same code when encountering an unlinked inode and we are not doing a lookup for a create operation.

Under heavy metadata load we are seeing log hangs. The AIL has items in it ready to be pushed, and they are within the push target window. However, we are not pushing them when the last pushed LSN is less than the LSN of the first log item on the AIL. This is a regression introduced by the AIL push cursor modifications.

xfs_bulkstat only wants the dinode, offset and buffer from a given inode number. Instead of using xfs_itobp on a fake inode which is complicated and currently leads to leaks of the security data just use xfs_inotobp which is designed to do exactly the kind of lookup xfs_bulkstat wants. The only thing that's missing in xfs_inotobp is a flags paramter that let's us pass down XFS_IMAP_BULKSTAT, but that can easily added.

If we are syncing data in xfs_sync_inodes_ag(), the VFS inode must still be referencable as the dirty data state is carried on the VFS inode. hence if we can't get a reference via igrab(), the inode must be in reclaim which implies that it has no dirty data attached. Leave such inodes to the reclaim code to flush the dirty inode state to disk and so avoid attempting to access the VFS inode when it may not exist in xfs_sync_inodes_ag(). Version 4: o don't reference linux inode until after igrab() succeeds Version 3: o converted unlock/rele to an xfs_iput() call. Version 2: o change igrab logic to be more linear o remove initial reclaimable inode check now that we are using igrab() failure to find reclaimable inodes o assert that igrab failure occurs only on reclaimable inodes o clean up inode locking - only grab the iolock if we are doing a SYNC_DELWRI call and we have a dirty inode.

iosizelog shouldn't be the same as iosize but the logarithm of it. Then again the current biosize option doesn't make much sense to me as it doesn't set the preferred I/O size as mentioned in the comment next to it but rather the allocation size and thus is identical to the allocsize option (except for the missing logarithm). It's also not documented in Documentation/filesystems/xfs.txt or the mount manpage. SGI-PV: 987246 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:32373a Signed-off-by:

No need to parse the mount option into a structure before applying it to struct xfs_mount. The content of xfs_start_flags gets merged into xfs_parseargs. Calls inbetween don't care and can use mount members instead of the args struct. This patch uncovered that the mount option for shared filesystems wasn't ever exposed on Linux. The code to handle it is #if 0'ed in this patch pending a decision on this feature. I'll send a writeup about it to the list soon.

When we are about to add a new item to a transaction in recovery, we need to check that it is valid first. Currently we just assert that header magic number matches, but in production systems that is not present and we add a corrupted transaction to the list to be processed. This results in a kernel oops later when processing the corrupted transaction. Instead, if we detect a corrupted transaction, abort recovery and leave the user to clean up the mess that has occurred.

Change all the remaining AIL API functions that are passed struct xfs_mount pointers to pass pointers directly to the struct xfs_ail being used. With this conversion, all external access to the AIL is via the struct xfs_ail. Hence the operation and referencing of the AIL is almost entirely independent of the xfs_mount that is using it - it is now much more tightly tied to the log and the items it is tracking in the log than it is tied to the xfs_mount.

When copying lsn's from the log item to the inode or dquot flush lsn, we currently grab the AIL lock. We do this because the LSN is a 64 bit quantity and it needs to be read atomically. The lock is used to guarantee atomicity for 32 bit platforms. Make the LSN copying a small function, and make the function used conditional on BITS_PER_LONG so that 64 bit machines don't need to take the AIL lock in these places.

With the new cursor interface, it makes sense to make all the traversing code use the cursor interface and make the old one go away. This means more of the AIL interfacing is done by passing struct xfs_ail pointers around the place instead of struct xfs_mount pointers. We can replace the use of xfs_trans_first_ail() in xfs_log_need_covered() as it is only checking if the AIL is empty. We can do that with a call to xfs_trans_ail_tail() instead, where a zero LSN returned indicates and empty AIL... SGI-PV: 988143 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:32348a Signed-off-by:

To replace the current generation number ensuring sanity of the AIL traversal, replace it with an external cursor that is linked to the AIL. Basically, we store the next item in the cursor whenever we want to drop the AIL lock to do something to the current item. When we regain the lock. the current item may already be free, so we can't reference it, but the next item in the traversal is already held in the cursor. When we move or delete an object, we search all the active cursors and if there is an item match we clear the cursor(s) that point to the object. This forces the traversal to restart transparently. We don't invalidate the cursor on insert because the cursor still points to a valid item. If the intem is inserted between the current item and the cursor it does not matter; the traversal is considered to be past the insertion point so it will be picked up in the next traversal. Hence traversal restarts pretty much disappear altogether with this method of traversal, which should substantially reduce the overhead of pushing on a busy AIL.

Rather than embedding the struct xfs_ail in the struct xfs_mount, allocate it during AIL initialisation. Add a back pointer to the struct xfs_ail so that we can pass around the xfs_ail and still be able to access the xfs_mount if need be. This is th first step involved in isolating the AIL implementation from the surrounding filesystem code. SGI-PV: 988143 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:32346a Signed-off-by:

When we create a directory, we reserve a number of blocks for the maximum possible expansion of of the directory due to various btree splits, freespace allocation, etc. Unfortunately, each allocation is not reflected in the total number of blocks still available to the transaction, so the maximal reservation is used over and over again. This leads to problems where an allocation group has only enough blocks for *some* of the allocations required for the directory modification. After the first N allocations, the remaining blocks in the allocation group drops below the total reservation, and subsequent allocations fail because the allocator will not allow the allocation to proceed if the AG does not have the enough blocks available for the entire allocation total. This results in an ENOSPC occurring after an allocation has already occurred. This results in aborting the directory operation (leaving the directory in an inconsistent state) and cancelling a dirty transaction, which results in a filesystem shutdown. Avoid the problem by reflecting the number of blocks allocated in any directory expansion in the total number of blocks available to the modification in progress. This prevents a directory modification from being aborted part way through with an ENOSPC. SGI-PV: 988144 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:32340a Signed-off-by:

If the last block of the AG has inodes in it and the AG is an exactly power-of-2 size then the last inode in the AG points to the last block in the AG. If we try to find the next inode in the AG by adding one to the inode number, we increment the inode number past the size of the AG. The result is that the macro XFS_INO_TO_AGINO() will strip the AG portion of the inode number and return an inode number of zero. That is, instead of terminating the lookup loop because we hit the inode number went outside the valid range for the AG, the search index returns to zero and we start traversing the radix tree from the start again. This results in an endless loop in xfs_sync_inodes_ag(). Fix it be detecting if the new search index decreases as a result of incrementing the current inode number. That indicate an overflow and hence that we have finished processing the AG so we can terminate the loop. SGI-PV: 988142 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:32335a Signed-off-by:

With the combined linux and XFS inode, we need to ensure that the combined structure is not freed before the generic code is finished with the inode. As it turns out, there is a case where the XFS inode is freed before the linux inode - when xfs_reclaim() is called from ->clear_inode() on a clean inode, the xfs inode is freed during that call. The generic code references the inode after the ->clear_inode() call, so this is a use after free situation. Fix the problem by moving the xfs_reclaim() call to ->destroy_inode() instead of in ->clear_inode(). This ensures the combined inode structure is not freed until after the generic code has finished with it. SGI-PV: 988141 SGI-Modid: xfs-linux-melb:xfs-kern:32324a Signed-off-by:

To avoid issues with different lifecycles of XFS and Linux inodes, embedd the linux inode inside the XFS inode. This means that the linux inode has the same lifecycle as the XFS inode, even when it has been released by the OS. XFS inodes don't live much longer than this (a short stint in reclaim at most), so there isn't significant memory usage penalties here.

To allow XFS to combine the XFS and linux inodes into a single structure, we need to drive inode lookup from the XFS inode cache, not the generic inode cache. This means that we need initialise a struct inode from a context outside alloc_inode() as it is no longer used by XFS. After inode allocation and initialisation, we need to add the inode to the superblock list, the in-use list, hash it and do some accounting. This all needs to be done with the inode_lock held and there are already several places in fs/inode.c that do this list manipulation. Factor out the common code, add a locking wrapper and export the function so ti can be called from XFS. Signed-off-by:

Once the Linux inode and the XFS inode are combined, we cannot rely on just check if the linux inode exists as a method of determining if it is valid or not.
