4e5ae8386b [XFS] xfs_bmapi fails to update the previous extent pointer
When processing multiple extent maps, xfs_bmapi needs to keep track of the
extent behind the one it is currently working on to be able to trim extent
ranges correctly. Failing to update the previous pointer can result in
corrupted extent lists in memory and this will result in panics or assert
failures.

Update the previous pointer correctly when we move to the next extent to
process.

92821e2ba4 [XFS] Lazy Superblock Counters
When we have a couple of hundred transactions on the fly at once, they all
typically modify the on disk superblock in some way.
create/unclink/mkdir/rmdir modify inode counts, allocation/freeing modify
free block counts.

When these counts are modified in a transaction, they must eventually lock
the superblock buffer and apply the mods. The buffer then remains locked
until the transaction is committed into the incore log buffer. The result
of this is that with enough transactions on the fly the incore superblock
buffer becomes a bottleneck.

The result of contention on the incore superblock buffer is that
transaction rates fall - the more pressure that is put on the superblock
buffer, the slower things go.

The key to removing the contention is to not require the superblock fields
in question to be locked. We do that by not marking the superblock dirty
in the transaction. IOWs, we modify the incore superblock but do not
modify the cached superblock buffer. In short, we do not log superblock
modifications to critical fields in the superblock on every transaction.
In fact we only do it just before we write the superblock to disk every
sync period or just before unmount.

This creates an interesting problem - if we don't log or write out the
fields in every transaction, then how do the values get recovered after a
crash? the answer is simple - we keep enough duplicate, logged information
in other structures that we can reconstruct the correct count after log
recovery has been performed.

It is the AGF and AGI structures that contain the duplicate information;
after recovery, we walk every AGI and AGF and sum their individual
counters to get the correct value, and we do a transaction into the log to
correct them. An optimisation of this is that if we have a clean unmount
record, we know the value in the superblock is correct, so we can avoid
the summation walk under normal conditions and so mount/recovery times do
not change under normal operation.

One wrinkle that was discovered during development was that the blocks
used in the freespace btrees are never accounted for in the AGF counters.
This was once a valid optimisation to make; when the filesystem is full,
the free space btrees are empty and consume no space. Hence when it
matters, the "accounting" is correct. But that means the when we do the
AGF summations, we would not have a correct count and xfs_check would
complain. Hence a new counter was added to track the number of blocks used
by the free space btrees. This is an *on-disk format change*.

As a result of this, lazy superblock counters are a mkfs option and at the
moment on linux there is no way to convert an old filesystem. This is
possible - xfs_db can be used to twiddle the right bits and then
xfs_repair will do the format conversion for you. Similarly, you can
convert backwards as well. At some point we'll add functionality to
xfs_admin to do the bit twiddling easily....

92dfe8d266 [XFS] Make hole punching at EOF atomic.
If hole punching at EOF is done as two steps (i.e. truncate then extend)
the file is in a transient state between the two steps where an
application can see the incorrect file size. Punching a hole to EOF needs
to be treated in teh same way as all other hole punching cases so that the
file size is never seen to change.

511105b3d7 [XFS] Fix vmalloc leak on mount/unmount.
When setting the length of the iclogbuf to write out we should just be
changing the desired byte count rather completely reassociating the buffer
memory with the buffer. Reassociating the buffer memory changes the
apparent length of the buffer and hence when we free the buffer, we don't
free all the vmap()d space we originally allocated.

40095b64f5 [XFS] Sleeping with the ilock waiting for I/O completion is Bad.
Recent fixes to the filesystem freezing code introduced a vn_iowait call
in the middle of the sync code. Unfortunately, at the point where this
call was added we are holding the ilock. The ilock is needed by I/O
completion for unwritten extent conversion and now updating the file size.
Hence I/o cannot complete if we hold the ilock while waiting for I/O
completion.

Fix up the bug and clean the code up around it.

When growing a filesystem we don't check to see if the new size overflows
the page cache index range, so we can do silly things like grow a
filesystem page 16TB on a 32bit. Check new filesystem sizes against the

df3c724426 [XFS] Write at EOF may not update filesize correctly.
The recent fix for preventing NULL files from being left around does not
update the file size corectly in all cases. The missing case is a write
extending the file that does not need to allocate a block.

In that case we used a read mapping of the extent which forced the use of
the read I/O completion handler instead of the write I/O completion
handle. Hence the file size was not updated on I/O completion.

8bb7844286 Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplug
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been
frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need
special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware
subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events
related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress.  This
patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during
suspend and resume transitions.  It also changes all of the
CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration
(for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal"
ones).

ba87ea699e [XFS] Fix to prevent the notorious 'NULL files' problem after a crash.
The problem that has been addressed is that of synchronising updates of
the file size with writes that extend a file. Without the fix the update
of a file's size, as a result of a write beyond eof, is independent of
when the cached data is flushed to disk. Often the file size update would
be written to the filesystem log before the data is flushed to disk. When
a system crashes between these two events and the filesystem log is
replayed on mount the file's size will be set but since the contents never
made it to disk the file is full of holes. If some of the cached data was
flushed to disk then it may just be a section of the file at the end that
has holes.

There are existing fixes to help alleviate this problem, particularly in
the case where a file has been truncated, that force cached data to be
flushed to disk when the file is closed. If the system crashes while the
file(s) are still open then this flushing will never occur.

The fix that we have implemented is to introduce a second file size,
called the in-memory file size, that represents the current file size as
viewed by the user. The existing file size, called the on-disk file size,
is the one that get's written to the filesystem log and we only update it
when it is safe to do so. When we write to a file beyond eof we only
update the in- memory file size in the write operation. Later when the I/O
operation, that flushes the cached data to disk completes, an I/O
completion routine will update the on-disk file size. The on-disk file
size will be updated to the maximum offset of the I/O or to the value of
the in-memory file size if the I/O includes eof.

2a32963130 [XFS] Fix race condition in xfs_write().
This change addresses a race in xfs_write() where, for direct I/O, the
flags need_i_mutex and need_flush are setup before the iolock is acquired.
The logic used to setup the flags may change between setting the flags and
acquiring the iolock resulting in these flags having incorrect values. For
example, if a file is not currently cached then need_i_mutex is set to
zero and then if the file is cached before the iolock is acquired we will
fail to do the flushinval before the direct write.

The flush (and also the call to xfs_zero_eof()) need to be done with the
iolock held exclusive so we need to acquire the iolock before checking for
cached data (or if the write begins after eof) to prevent this state from
changing. For direct I/O I've chosen to always acquire the iolock in
shared mode initially and if there is a need to promote it then drop it
and reacquire it.

There's also some other tidy-ups including removing the O_APPEND offset
adjustment since that work is done in generic_write_checks() (and we don't
use offset as an input parameter anywhere).

50953fe9e0 slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flag
I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL.  It is only supported by
SLAB.

I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again?  The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.

I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free.  That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.

Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on.  If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code.  But there is no such code
in the kernel.  I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e.  add debug code before kfree).

There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches.  Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.

This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support.  Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.

0b4d414714 [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

33a266dda9 [PATCH] Make BH_Unwritten a first class bufferhead flag V2
Currently, XFS uses BH_PrivateStart for flagging unwritten extent state in a
bufferhead.  Recently, I found the long standing mmap/unwritten extent
conversion bug, and it was to do with partial page invalidation not clearing
the unwritten flag from bufferheads attached to the page but beyond EOF.  See
here for a full explaination:

http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-12/msg00196.html

The solution I have checked into the XFS dev tree involves duplicating code
from block_invalidatepage to clear the unwritten flag from the bufferhead(s),
and then calling block_invalidatepage() to do the rest.

Christoph suggested that this would be better solved by pushing the unwritten
flag into the common buffer head flags and just adding the call to
discard_buffer():

http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-12/msg00239.html

The following patch makes BH_Unwritten a first class citizen.

It makes it incrementally clearer to read the code when the top of a macro
spaghetti-pile only receives the 3 arguments it uses, rather than 2 extra
ones which are not used. Also when you start pulling this thread out of
the sweater (i.e. remove unused args from XFS_BTREE_*_ADDR), a couple
other third arms etc fall off too. If they're not used in the macro, then
they sometimes don't need to be passed to the function calling the macro
either, etc....

xfs_mac.h and xfs_cap.h provide definitions and macros that aren't used

point in the future" functionality that Irix XFS has. If this
functionality ever goes into Linux, it will be provided at a different
layer, most likely through the security hooks in the kernel so we will
never need this functionality in XFS.
