2016-08-03nilfs2: reduce bare use of printk() with nilfs_msg()Ryusuke Konishi1-37/+35
Replace most use of printk() in nilfs2 implementation with nilfs_msg(), and reduce the following checkpatch.pl warning: "WARNING: Prefer [subsystem eg: netdev]_crit([subsystem]dev, ... then dev_crit(dev, ... then pr_crit(... to printk(KERN_CRIT ..." This patch also fixes a minor checkpatch warning "WARNING: quoted string split across lines" that often accompanies the prior warning, and amends message format as needed.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov1-2/+2
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2010-07-23nilfs2: refactor recovery logic routinesRyusuke Konishi1-66/+94

This field is intended for crucial cases in which super blocks have lost pointer to the latest log. Even though this will change the disk format, both backward and forward compatibility is preserved by a size field prepared in the segment summary header.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
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.

2010-02-18nilfs2: delete unnecessary condition in load_segment_summaryJiro SEKIBA1-30/+11
This is a trivial patch to remove unnecessary condition. load_segment_summary() checks crc of segment_summary OR crc of whole log data blocks based on boolean argument full_check. However, callers of the function pass only 1 as full_check, which means only whole log data blocks checking code is running all the time. This patch deletes the condition and full_check argument and also deletes enum 'NILFS_SEG_FAIL_CHECKSUM_SEGSUM' and corresponding case clause, for it is nolonger used anymore.

2009-11-20nilfs2: apply readahead for recovery on mountRyusuke Konishi1-7/+19
This inserts readahead in the recovery code. The readahead request is issued per segment while searching the latest super root block. This will shorten mount time after unclean unmount.

2009-04-13nilfs2: fix possible mismatch of sufile counters on recoveryRyusuke Konishi1-16/+4
On-disk counters ndirtysegs and ncleansegs of sufile, can go wrong after roll-forward recovery because nilfs_prepare_segment_for_recovery() function marks segments dirty without adjusting value of these counters.

2009-04-07nilfs2: introduce secondary super blockRyusuke Konishi1-1/+0
The former versions didn't have extra super blocks. This improves the weak point by introducing another super block at unused region in tail of the partition. This doesn't break disk format compatibility; older versions just ingore the secondary super block, and new versions just recover it if it doesn't exist. The partition created by an old mkfs may not have unused region, but in that case, the secondary super block will not be added. This doesn't make more redundant copies of the super block; it is a future work.

2009-04-07nilfs2: simplify handling of active state of segmentsRyusuke Konishi1-11/+1
will reduce some lines of segment constructor. Previously, the state was complexly controlled through a list of segments in order to keep consistency in meta data of usage state of segments. Instead, this presents ``calculated'' active flags to userland cleaner program and stop maintaining its real flag on disk. Only by this fake flag, the cleaner cannot exactly know if each segment is reclaimable or not. However, the recent extension of nilfs_sustat ioctl struct (nilfs2-extend-nilfs_sustat-ioctl-struct.patch) can prevent the cleaner from reclaiming in-use segment wrongly. So, now I can apply this for simplification.

This adds a new argument to the nilfs_sustat structure. The extended field allows to delete volatile active state of segments, which was needed to protect freshly-created segments from garbage collection but has confused code dealing with segments. This extension alleviates the mess and gives room for further simplifications.
