2010-03-04ext4: fix up rb_root initializations to use RB_ROOTVenkatesh Pallipadi
ext4 uses rb_node = NULL; to zero rb_root at few places. Using RB_ROOT as the initializer is more portable in case the underlying implementation of rbtrees changes in the future.

2010-03-05dquot: cleanup space allocation / freeing routinesChristoph Hellwig
Get rid of the alloc_space, free_space, reserve_space, claim_space and release_rsv dquot operations - they are always called from the filesystem and if a filesystem really needs their own (which none currently does) it can just call into it's own routine directly. Move shared logic into the common __dquot_alloc_space, dquot_claim_space_nodirty and __dquot_free_space low-level methods, and rationalize the wrappers around it to move as much as possible code into the common block for CONFIG_QUOTA vs not. Also rename all these helpers to be named dquot_* instead of vfs_dq_*. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

2010-03-01ext4: Fix fencepost error in chosing choosing group vs file preallocation.Tao Ma
The ext4 multiblock allocator decides whether to use group or file preallocation based on the file size. When the file size reaches s_mb_stream_request (default is 16 blocks), it changes to use a file-specific preallocation. This is cool, but it has a tiny problem. See a simple script: mkfs.ext4 -b 1024 /dev/sda8 1000000 mount -t ext4 -o nodelalloc /dev/sda8 /mnt/ext4 for((i=0;i<5;i++)) do cat /mnt/4096>>/mnt/ext4/a #4096 is a file with 4096 characters. cat /mnt/4096>>/mnt/ext4/b done debuge4fs -R 'stat a' /dev/sda8|grep BLOCKS -A 1 And you get BLOCKS: (0-14):8705-8719, (15):2356, (16-19):8465-8468 So there are 3 extents, a bit strange for the lonely 15th logical block. As we write to the 16 blocks, we choose file preallocation in ext4_mb_group_or_file, but in ext4_mb_normalize_request, we meet with the 16*1024 range, so no preallocation will be carried. file b then reserves the space after '2356', so when when write 16, we start from another part. This patch just change the check in ext4_mb_group_or_file, so that for the lonely 15 we will still use group preallocation. After the patch, we will get: debuge4fs -R 'stat a' /dev/sda8|grep BLOCKS -A 1 BLOCKS: (0-15):8705-8720, (16-19):8465-8468 Looks more sane. Thanks.

2010-01-22ext4: Add block validity check when truncating indirect block mapped inodesTheodore Ts'o
Add checks to ext4_free_branches() to make sure a block number found in an indirect block are valid before trying to free it. If a bad block number is found, stop freeing the indirect block immediately, since the file system is corrupt and we will need to run fsck anyway. This also avoids spamming the logs, and specifically avoids driver-level "attempt to access beyond end of device" errors obscure what is really going on. If you get *really*, *really*, *really* unlucky, without this patch, a supposed indirect block containing garbage might contain a reference to a primary block group descriptor, in which case ext4_free_branches() could end up zero'ing out a block group descriptor block, and if then one of the block bitmaps for a block group described by that bg descriptor block is not in memory, and is read in by ext4_read_block_bitmap(). This function calls ext4_valid_block_bitmap(), which assumes that bg_inode_table() was validated at mount time and hasn't been modified since. Since this assumption is no longer valid, it's possible for the value (ext4_inode_table(sb, desc) - group_first_block) to go negative, which will cause ext4_find_next_zero_bit() to trigger a kernel GPF.

2009-11-23ext4: call ext4_forget() from ext4_free_blocks()Theodore Ts'o
Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from ext4_free_blocks(). This simplifies the code in a large number of places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into a single place. Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the conversion. As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks. With this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

The /proc/fs/ext4/<dev>/mb_history was maintained manually, and had a number of problems: it required a largish amount of memory to be allocated for each ext4 filesystem, and the s_mb_history_lock introduced a CPU contention problem.

2009-09-16ext4: limit block allocations for indirect-block files to < 2^32Eric Sandeen
Today, the ext4 allocator will happily allocate blocks past 2^32 for indirect-block files, which results in the block numbers getting truncated, and corruption ensues. This patch limits such allocations to < 2^32, and adds BUG_ONs if we do get blocks larger than that. This should address RH Bug 519471, ext4 bitmap allocator must limit blocks to < 2^32 * ext4_find_goal() is modified to choose a goal < UINT_MAX, so that our starting point is in an acceptable range. * ext4_xattr_block_set() is modified such that the goal block is < UINT_MAX, as above. * ext4_mb_regular_allocator() is modified so that the group search does not continue into groups which are too high * ext4_mb_use_preallocated() has a check that we don't use preallocated space which is too far out * ext4_alloc_blocks() and ext4_xattr_block_set() add some BUG_ONs No attempt has been made to limit inode locations to < 2^32, so we may wind up with blocks far from their inodes. Doing this much already will lead to some odd ENOSPC issues when the "lower 32" gets full, and further restricting inodes could make that even weirder. For high inodes, choosing a goal of the original, % UINT_MAX, may be a bit odd, but then we're in an odd situation anyway, and I don't know of a better heuristic.

While reading through some of the mballoc code it seems that a couple spots in the size normalization function could be streamlined. The test for non-overlapping PAs can be or'd for the start & end conditions, and the tests for adjacent PAs can be else-if'd - it's essentially independently testing: if (A + B <= C) ... if (A > C) ...

2009-09-18ext4: Avoid group preallocation for closed filesTheodore Ts'o
Currently the group preallocation code tries to find a large (512) free block from which to do per-cpu group allocation for small files. The problem with this scheme is that it leaves the filesystem horribly fragmented. In the worst case, if the filesystem is unmounted and remounted (after a system shutdown, for example) we forget the fact that wee were using a particular (now-partially filled) 512 block extent. So the next time we try to allocate space for a small file, we will find *another* completely free 512 block chunk to allocate small files. Given that there are 32,768 blocks in a block group, after 64 iterations of "mount, write one 4k file in a directory, unmount", the block group will have 64 files, each separated by 511 blocks, and the block group will no longer have any free 512 completely free chunks of blocks for group preallocation space. So if we try to allocate blocks for a file that has been closed, such that we know the final size of the file, and the filesystem is not busy, avoid using group preallocation.

2009-08-09ext4: Fix bugs in mballoc's stream allocation modeTheodore Ts'o
The logic around sbi->s_mb_last_group and sbi->s_mb_last_start was all screwed up. These fields were getting unconditionally all the time, set even when stream allocation had not taken place, and if they were being used when the file was smaller than s_mb_stream_request, which is when the allocation should _not_ be doing stream allocation. Fix this by determining whether or not we stream allocation should take place once, in ext4_mb_group_or_file(), and setting a flag which gets used in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and ext4_mb_use_best_found(). This simplifies the code and assures that we are consistently using (or not using) the stream allocation logic. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2009-07-17ext4: Fix memory leak fix when mounting an ext4 filesystemAneesh Kumar K.V
The allocation of the ext4_group_info array was moved to a new function ext4_mb_add_group_info() in commit 5f21b0e6 so that online resize would use a common (and correct) codepath. Unfortunately, the call to the new ext4_mb_add_group_info() function was added without removing the code which originally allocated the array. This caused a memory leak each time an ext4 filesystem was mounted. The fix is simple; remove the code that did the original allocation, since it is no longer needed.

With all the static functions in mballoc.c, gcc helpfully inlines for us, and we get something like this: ext4_mb_regular_allocator (232 bytes stack) ext4_mb_init_cache (232 bytes stack) submit_bh (starts 464 deeper) the 2 ext4 functions here get several others inlined; by telling gcc not to inline them, we can save stack space for when we head off into submit_bh land and associated block layer callchains. The following noinlined functions are only called once, so this won't impact any other callchains: ext4_mb_regular_allocator (104) (was 232) ext4_mb_find_by_goal (56) (noinlined) ext4_mb_init_group (24) (noinlined) ext4_mb_init_cache (136) (was 232) ext4_mb_generate_buddy (88) (noinlined) ext4_mb_generate_from_pa (40) (noinlined) submit_bh ext4_mb_simple_scan_group (24) (noinlined) ext4_mb_scan_aligned (56) (noinlined) ext4_mb_complex_scan_group (40) (noinlined) ext4_mb_try_best_found (24) (noinlined) now when we head off into submit_bh() we're only 264 bytes deeper in stack than when we entered ext4_mb_regular_allocator() (vs. 464 bytes before).

2009-05-01ext4: Don't avoid using BLOCK_UNINIT block groups in mballocTheodore Ts'o
By avoiding the use of not-yet-used block groups (i.e., block groups with the BLOCK_UNINIT flag), mballoc had a tendency to create large files with large non-contiguous gaps. In addition avoiding the use of new block groups had a tendency to push regular file data into the first block group in a flex_bg group, which slows down the speed of e2fsck pass 2, since it has a tendency to seek much more. For example: Before Patch After Patch Time in seconds Time in seconds Real / User/ Sys MB/s Real / User/ Sys MB/s Pass 1 8.52 / 2.21 / 0.46 20.43 8.84 / 4.97 / 1.11 19.68 Pass 2 21.16 / 1.02 / 1.86 11.30 6.54 / 1.77 / 1.78 36.39 Pass 3 0.01 / 0.00 / 0.00 139.00 0.01 / 0.01 / 0.00 128.90 Pass 4 0.16 / 0.15 / 0.00 0.00 0.17 / 0.17 / 0.00 0.00 Pass 5 2.52 / 1.99 / 0.09 0.79 2.31 / 1.78 / 0.06 0.86 Total 32.40 / 5.11 / 2.49 12.81 17.99 / 8.75 / 2.98 23.01 This was on a sample 80 gig root filesystem which was approximately 50% full. Note the improved e2fsck pass 2 performance, by over a factor of 3, due to a decreased number of seeks. (The total amount of I/O in pass 2 was unchanged; the layout of the directory blocks was simply much better from e2fsck's's perspective.)

2009-05-01ext4: Avoid races caused by on-line resizing and SMP memory reorderingTheodore Ts'o
Ext4's on-line resizing adds a new block group and then, only at the last step adjusts s_groups_count. However, it's possible on SMP systems that another CPU could see the updated the s_group_count and not see the newly initialized data structures for the just-added block group. For this reason, it's important to insert a SMP read barrier after reading s_groups_count and before reading any (for example) the new block group descriptors allowed by the increased value of s_groups_count. Unfortunately, we rather blatently violate this locking protocol documented in fs/ext4/resize.c. Fortunately, (1) on-line resizes happen relatively rarely, and (2) it seems rare that the filesystem code will immediately try to use just-added block group before any memory ordering issues resolve themselves. So apparently problems here are relatively hard to hit, since ext3 has been vulnerable to the same issue for years with no one apparently complaining. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
