      9p: Pass the correct end of buffer to p9dirent_read · 8812a3d5
      Sripathi Kodi authored
      A patch was accepted recently for sending correct buffer size to p9stat_read.
      We need a similar patch in v9fs_dir_readdir_dotl to send correct end of buffer
      to p9dirent_read.

      fs/9p: setrlimit fix for 9p write · 3834b12a
      Harsh Prateek Bora authored
      Current 9p client file write code does not check for RLIMIT_FSIZE resource.
      This bug was found by running LTP test case for setrlimit. This bug is fixed
      by calling generic_write_checks before sending the write request to the
      server.
      Without this patch: the write function is allowed to write above the
      RLIMIT_FSIZE set by user.
      With this patch: the write function checks for RLIMIT_SIZE and writes upto
      the size limit.

      ext4: optimize orphan_list handling for ext4_setattr · 3d287de3
      Dmitry Monakhov authored
      Surprisingly chown() on ext4 is not SMP scalable operation. 
      Due to unconditional orphan_del(NULL, inode) in ext4_setattr()
      result in significant performance overhead because of global orphan
      mutex, especially in no-journal mode (where orphan_add() is noop).
      It is possible to skip explicit orphan_del if possible.
      Results of fchown() micro-benchmark in no-journal mode
      while (1) {
         iteration++;
         fchown(fd, uid, gid);
         fchown(fd, uid + 1, gid + 1)
      }
      measured: iterations per millisecond

      ext4: fix kernel oops if the journal superblock has a non-zero j_errno · 7f93cff9
      Theodore Ts'o authored
      Commit 84061e07 fixed an accounting bug only to introduce the
      possibility of a kernel OOPS if the journal has a non-zero j_errno
      field indicating that the file system had detected a fs inconsistency.
      After the journal replay, if the journal superblock indicates that the
      file system has an error, this indication is transfered to the file
      system and then ext4_commit_super() is called to write this to the
      disk.
      
      But since the percpu counters are now initialized after the journal
      replay, the call to ext4_commit_super() will cause a kernel oops since
      it needs to use the percpu counters the ext4 superblock structure.
      
      The fix is to skip setting the ext4 free block and free inode fields
      if the percpu counter has not been set.
      
      Thanks to Ken Sumrall for reporting and analyzing the root causes of
      this bug.

      ext4: update writeback_index based on last page scanned · 72f84e65
      Eric Sandeen authored
      As pointed out in a prior patch, updating the mapping's
      writeback_index based on pages written isn't quite right;
      what the writeback index is really supposed to reflect is
      the next page which should be scanned for writeback during
      periodic flush.
      
      As in write_cache_pages(), write_cache_pages_da() does
      this scanning for us as we assemble the mpd for later
      writeout.  If we keep track of the next page after the
      current scan, we can easily update writeback_index without
      worrying about pages written vs. pages skipped, etc.
      
      Without this, an fsync will reset writeback_index to
      0 (its starting index) + however many pages it wrote, which
      can mess up the progress of periodic flush.

      ext4: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging · 5b41d924
      Eric Sandeen authored
      This is analogous to Jan Kara's commit,
      f446daae
      mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging
      
      but since we forked write_cache_pages, we need to reimplement
      it there (and in ext4_da_writepages, since range_cyclic handling
      was moved to there)
      
      If you start a large buffered IO to a file, and then set
      fsync after it, you'll find that fsync does not complete
      until the other IO stops.
      
      If you continue re-dirtying the file (say, putting dd
      with conv=notrunc in a loop), when fsync finally completes
      (after all IO is done), it reports via tracing that
      it has written many more pages than the file contains;
      in other words it has synced and re-synced pages in
      the file multiple times.
      
      This then leads to problems with our writeback_index
      update, since it advances it by pages written, and
      essentially sets writeback_index off the end of the
      file...
      
      With the following patch, we only sync as much as was
      dirty at the time of the sync.

      ext4: tidy up a void argument in inode.c · bbd08344
      Eric Sandeen authored
      This doesn't fix anything at all, it just removes a vestige
      of prior use from __mpage_da_writepage()
      
      __mpage_da_writepage() had a *void argument leftover from
      its previous life as a callback; make it reflect the actual type.
      
      Fixing this up makes it slightly more obvious to read, and 
      enables proper typechecking.

      ext4: Add batched discard support for ext4 · 7360d173
      Lukas Czerner authored
      Walk through allocation groups and trim all free extents. It can be
      invoked through FITRIM ioctl on the file system. The main idea is to
      provide a way to trim the whole file system if needed, since some SSD's
      may suffer from performance loss after the whole device was filled (it
      does not mean that fs is full!).
      
      It search for free extents in allocation groups specified by Byte range
      start -> start+len. When the free extent is within this range, blocks
      are marked as used and then trimmed. Afterwards these blocks are marked
      as free in per-group bitmap.
      
      Since fstrim is a long operation it is good to have an ability to
      interrupt it by a signal. This was added by Dmitry Monakhov.
      Thanks Dimitry.

      fs: Add FITRIM ioctl · 367a51a3
      Lukas Czerner authored
      Adds an filesystem independent ioctl to allow implementation of file
      system batched discard support. I takes fstrim_range structure as an
      argument. fstrim_range is definec in the include/fs.h and its
      definition is as follows.
      
      struct fstrim_range {
      	start;
      	len;
      	minlen;
      }
      
      start	- first Byte to trim
      len	- number of Bytes to trim from start
      minlen	- minimum extent length to trim, free extents shorter than this
      	  number of Bytes will be ignored. This will be rounded up to fs
      	  block size.
      
      It is also possible to specify NULL as an argument. In this case the
      arguments will set itself as follows:
      
      start = 0;
      len = ULLONG_MAX;
      minlen = 0;
      
      So it will trim the whole file system at one run.
      
      After the FITRIM is done, the number of actually discarded Bytes is stored
      in fstrim_range.len to give the user better insight on how much storage
      space has been really released for wear-leveling.

      As a prepratory step to switching to bio_submit, inline
      ext4_writepage() into mpage_da_submit() and then simplify things a
      bit.  This makes it clearer what mpage_da_submit needs to do.
      
      Also, move the ClearPageChecked(page) call into
      __ext4_journalled_writepage(), as a minor bit of cleanup refactoring.
      
      This also allows us to pull i_size_read() and
      ext4_should_journal_data() out of the loop, which should be a very
      minor CPU savings.
