2011-01-07fs: icache RCU free inodesNick Piggin1-1/+9
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow: - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must. - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking. - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the page lock to follow page->mapping. The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts kicking over, this increases to about 20%. In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller. The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking, so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I doubt it will be a problem. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

2010-10-21UBIFS: do not allocate unneeded scan bufferArtem Bityutskiy1-7/+1
In 'ubifs_replay_journal()' we allocate 'sbuf' for scanning the log. However, we already have 'c->sbuf' for these purposes, so do not allocate yet another one. This reduces UBIFS memory consumption while recovering. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-10-21UBIFS: do not forget to cancel timersArtem Bityutskiy1-0/+4
This is a bug-fix: when we unmount, and we are currently in R/O mode because of an error - we do not sync write-buffers, which means we also do not cancel write-buffer timers we may possibly have armed. This patch fixes the issue. The issue can easily be reproduced by enabling UBIFS failure debug mode (echo 4 > /sys/module/ubifs/parameters/debug_tsts) and unmounting as soon as a failure happen. At some point the system oopses because we have an armed hrtimer but UBIFS is unmounted already. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-10-21UBIFS: remove a bit of unneeded codeArtem Bityutskiy1-6/+3
This is a clean-up patch which: 1. Removes explicite 'hrtimer_cancel()' after 'ubifs_wbuf_sync()' in 'ubifs_remount_ro()', because the timers will be canceled by 'ubifs_wbuf_sync()', no need to cancel them for the second time. 2. Remove "if (c->jheads)" check from 'ubifs_put_super()', because at journal heads must always be allocated there, since we checked earlier that we were mounted R/W, and the olny situation when journal heads are not allocated is when mounter or re-mounted R/O.

2010-10-15llseek: automatically add .llseek fopArnd Bergmann1-0/+1
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

2010-09-19UBIFS: introduce new flags for RO mountsArtem Bityutskiy14-60/+62
Commit 2fde99cb55fb9d9b88180512a5e8a5d939d27fec "UBIFS: mark VFS SB RO too" introduced regression. This commit made UBIFS set the 'MS_RDONLY' flag in the VFS superblock when it switches to R/O mode due to an error. This was done to make VFS show the R/O UBIFS flag in /proc/mounts. However, several places in UBIFS relied on the 'MS_RDONLY' flag and assume this flag can only change when we re-mount. For example, 'ubifs_put_super()'. This patch introduces new UBIFS flag - 'c->ro_mount' which changes only when we re-mount, and preserves the way UBIFS was originally mounted (R/W or R/O). This allows us to de-initialize UBIFS cleanly in 'ubifs_put_super()'. This patch also changes all 'ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media)' assertions to 'ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media && !c->ro_mount)', because we never should write anything if the FS was mounter R/O. All the places where we test for 'MS_RDONLY' flag in the VFS SB were changed and now we test the 'c->ro_mount' flag instead, because it preserves the original UBIFS mount type, unlike the 'MS_RDONLY' flag.

2010-09-17UBIFS: introduce new flag for RO due to errorsArtem Bityutskiy11-24/+44
The R/O state may have various reasons: 1. The UBI volume is R/O 2. The FS is mounted R/O 3. The FS switched to R/O mode because of an error However, in UBIFS we have only one variable which represents cases 1 and 3 - 'c->ro_media'. Indeed, we set this to 1 if we switch to R/O mode due to an error, and then we test it in many places to make sure that we stop writing as soon as the error happens. But this is very unclean. One consequence of this, for example, is that in 'ubifs_remount_fs()' we use 'c->ro_media' to check whether we are in R/O mode because on an error, and we print a message in this case. However, if we are in R/O mode because the media is R/O, our message is bogus. This patch introduces new flag - 'c->ro_error' which is set when we switch to R/O mode because of an error. It also changes all "if (c->ro_media)" checks to "if (c->ro_error)" checks, because this is what the checks actually mean. We do not need to check for 'c->ro_media' because if the UBI volume is in R/O mode, we do not allow R/W mounting, and now writes can happen. This is guaranteed by VFS. But it is good to double-check this, so this patch also adds many "ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media)" checks. In the 'ubifs_remount_fs()' function this patch makes a bit more changes - it fixes the error messages as well. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2010-08-30UBIFS: improve error reporting when reading bad nodeArtem Bityutskiy1-1/+2

2010-08-30UBIFS: introduce list sorting debugging checksArtem Bityutskiy3-2/+168
The UBIFS bug in the GC list sorting comparison functions inspired me to write internal debugging check functions which verify that the list of nodes is sorted properly. So, this patch implements 2 new debugging functions: o 'dbg_check_data_nodes_order()' - check order of data nodes list o 'dbg_check_nondata_nodes_order()' - check order of non-data nodes list The debugging functions are executed only if general UBIFS debugging checks are enabled. And they are compiled out if UBIFS debugging is disabled. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-08-30UBIFS: fix assertion warnings in comparison functionArtem Bityutskiy1-0/+6
When running the integrity test ('integck' from mtd-utils) on current UBIFS on 2.6.35, I see that assertions in UBIFS 'list_sort()' comparison functions trigger sometimes, e.g.: UBIFS assert failed in data_nodes_cmp at 132 (pid 28311) My investigation showed that this happens when 'list_sort()' calls the 'cmp()' function with equivalent arguments. In this case, the 'struct list_head' parameter, passed to 'cmp()' is bogus, and it does not belong to any element in the original list. And this issue seems to be introduced by commit: commit 835cc0c8477fdbc59e0217891d6f11061b1ac4e2 Author: Don Mullis <don.mullis@gmail.com> Date: Fri Mar 5 13:43:15 2010 -0800 It is easy to work around the issue by doing: if (a == b) return 0; in UBIFS. It works, but 'lib_sort()' should nevertheless be fixed. Although it is harmless to have this piece of code in UBIFS. This patch adds that code to both UBIFS 'cmp()' functions: 'data_nodes_cmp()' and 'nondata_nodes_cmp()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-08-30UBIFS: mark unused key objects as invalidArtem Bityutskiy4-3/+27
When scanning the flash, UBIFS builds a list of flash nodes of type 'struct ubifs_scan_node'. Each scanned node has a 'snod->key' field. This field is valid for most of the nodes, but invalid for some node type, e.g., truncation nodes. It is safer to explicitly initialize such keys to something invalid, rather than leaving them initialized to all zeros, which has key type of UBIFS_INO_KEY. This patch introduces new "fake" key type UBIFS_INVALID_KEY and initializes unused 'snod->key' objects to this type. It also adds debugging assertions in the TNC code to make sure no one ever tries to look these nodes up in the TNC. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-08-30UBIFS: do not write rubbish into truncation scanning nodeArtem Bityutskiy1-1/+0
In the scanning code, in 'ubifs_add_snod()', we write rubbish into 'snod->key', because we assume that on-flash truncation nodes have a key, but they do not. If the other parts of UBIFS then mistakenly try to look-up the truncation node key (they should not do this, but may do because of a bug), we can succeed and corrupt TNC. It looks like we did have such a situation in 'sort_nodes()' in gc.c. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2010-08-30UBIFS: do not look up truncation nodesArtem Bityutskiy1-3/+20
When moving nodes in GC, do not try to look up truncation nodes in TNC, because they do not exist there. This would be harmless, because the TNC look-up would fail, if we did not have bug 'ubifs_add_snod()' which reads garbage into 'snod->key'. But in any case, it is less error prone to explicitly ignore everything but inode, data, dentry and xentry nodes. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

Make sure we check the truncate constraints early on in ->setattr by adding those checks to inode_change_ok. Also clean up and document inode_change_ok to make this obvious. As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error. This simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize almost everywhere. Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious. Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an audit for its removal anyway. Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.

2010-07-13UBIFS: fix GC LEB recoveryArtem Bityutskiy1-5/+18
UBIFS tries to alway have an LEB reserved for GC, and stores it in c->gc_lnum. Besides, there is GC head which points to the current GC head LEB. In case of an unclean power cut, what may happen is that the GC head was switched to the reserved GC LEB (c->gc_lnum), but a new reserved GC LEB was not created yet. So, after an unclean reboot we may have no reserved GC LEB, and we need to find a new LEB for this. To do this, we find a dirty LEB which can fit the current GC head, move the data, unmap this dirty LEB, and it becomes our reserved GC LEB.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo12-0/+12
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-03-07Revert "lib: build list_sort() only if needed"Linus Torvalds1-1/+0
This reverts commit a069c266ae5fdfbf5b4aecf2c672413aa33b2504. It turns ou that not only was it missing a case (XFS) that needed it, but perhaps more importantly, people sometimes want to enable new modules that they hadn't had enabled before, and if such a module uses list_sort(), it can't easily be inserted any more. So rather than add a "select LIST_SORT" to the XFS case, just leave it compiled in. It's not all _that_ big, after all, and the inconvenience isn't worth it.
