2011-08-31ext4: remove i_mutex lock in ext4_evict_inode to fix lockdep complainingJiaying Zhang
The i_mutex lock and flush_completed_IO() added by commit 2581fdc810 in ext4_evict_inode() causes lockdep complaining about potential deadlock in several places. In most/all of these LOCKDEP complaints it looks like it's a false positive, since many of the potential circular locking cases can't take place by the time the ext4_evict_inode() is called; but since at the very least it may mask real problems, we need to address this. This change removes the flush_completed_IO() and i_mutex lock in ext4_evict_inode(). Instead, we take a different approach to resolve the software lockup that commit 2581fdc810 intends to fix. Rather than having ext4-dio-unwritten thread wait for grabing the i_mutex lock of an inode, we use mutex_trylock() instead, and simply requeue the work item if we fail to grab the inode's i_mutex lock. This should speed up work queue processing in general and also prevents the following deadlock scenario: During page fault, shrink_icache_memory is called that in turn evicts another inode B. Inode B has some pending io_end work so it calls ext4_ioend_wait() that waits for inode B's i_ioend_count to become zero. However, inode B's ioend work was queued behind some of inode A's ioend work on the same cpu's ext4-dio-unwritten workqueue. As the ext4-dio-unwritten thread on that cpu is processing inode A's ioend work, it tries to grab inode A's i_mutex lock. Since the i_mutex lock of inode A is still hold before the page fault happened, we enter a deadlock. Signed-off-by: Jiaying Zhang <jiayingz@google.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2011-08-19ext4: flush any pending end_io requests before DIO reads w/dioread_nolockJiaying Zhang
There is a race between ext4 buffer write and direct_IO read with dioread_nolock mount option enabled. The problem is that we clear PageWriteback flag during end_io time but will do uninitialized-to-initialized extent conversion later with dioread_nolock. If an O_direct read request comes in during this period, ext4 will return zero instead of the recently written data. This patch checks whether there are any pending uninitialized-to-initialized extent conversion requests before doing O_direct read to close the race. Note that this is just a bandaid fix. The fundamental issue is that we clear PageWriteback flag before we really complete an IO, which is problem-prone. To fix the fundamental issue, we may need to implement an extent tree cache that we can use to look up pending to-be-converted extents.

2011-08-13ext4: fix nomblk_io_submit option so it correctly converts uninit blocksTheodore Ts'o
Bug discovered by Jan Kara: Finally, commit 1449032be17abb69116dbc393f67ceb8bd034f92 returned back the old IO submission code but apparently it forgot to return the old handling of uninitialized buffers so we unconditionnaly call block_write_full_page() without specifying end_io function. So AFAICS we never convert unwritten extents to written in some cases. For example when I mount the fs as: mount -t ext4 -o nomblk_io_submit,dioread_nolock /dev/ubdb /mnt and do int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, 0600); char buf[1024]; memset(buf, 'a', sizeof(buf)); fallocate(fd, 0, 0, 16384); write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)); I get a file full of zeros (after remounting the filesystem so that pagecache is dropped) instead of seeing the first KB contain 'a's.

2011-08-13ext4: Resolve the hang of direct i/o read in handling EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN.Tao Ma
EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN flag set and the increase of i_aiodio_unwritten should be done simultaneously since ext4_end_io_nolock always clear the flag and decrease the counter in the same time. We don't increase i_aiodio_unwritten when setting EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN so it will go nagative and causes some process to wait forever. Part of the patch came from Eric in his e-mail, but it doesn't fix the problem met by Michael actually. http://marc.info/?l=linux-ext4&m=131316851417460&w=2 Reported-and-Tested-by: Michael Tokarev<mjt@tls.msk.ru> Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org
2011-08-13ext4: call ext4_ioend_wait and ext4_flush_completed_IO in ext4_evict_inodeJiaying Zhang
Flush inode's i_completed_io_list before calling ext4_io_wait to prevent the following deadlock scenario: A page fault happens while some process is writing inode A. During page fault, shrink_icache_memory is called that in turn evicts another inode B. Inode B has some pending io_end work so it calls ext4_ioend_wait() that waits for inode B's i_ioend_count to become zero. However, inode B's ioend work was queued behind some of inode A's ioend work on the same cpu's ext4-dio-unwritten workqueue. As the ext4-dio-unwritten thread on that cpu is processing inode A's ioend work, it tries to grab inode A's i_mutex lock. Since the i_mutex lock of inode A is still hold before the page fault happened, we enter a deadlock. Also moves ext4_flush_completed_IO and ext4_ioend_wait from ext4_destroy_inode() to ext4_evict_inode(). During inode deleteion, ext4_evict_inode() is called before ext4_destroy_inode() and in ext4_evict_inode(), we may call ext4_truncate() without holding i_mutex lock. As a result, there is a race between flush_completed_IO that is called from ext4_ext_truncate() and ext4_end_io_work, which may cause corruption on an io_end structure. This change moves ext4_flush_completed_IO and ext4_ioend_wait from ext4_destroy_inode() to ext4_evict_inode() to resolve the race between ext4_truncate() and ext4_end_io_work during inode deletion.

2011-08-13ext4: Fix ext4_should_writeback_data() for no-journal modeCurt Wohlgemuth
ext4_should_writeback_data() had an incorrect sequence of tests to determine if it should return 0 or 1: in particular, even in no-journal mode, 0 was being returned for a non-regular-file inode. This meant that, in non-journal mode, we would use ext4_journalled_aops for directories, symlinks, and other non-regular files. However, calling journalled aop callbacks when there is no valid handle, can cause problems. This would cause a kernel crash with Jan Kara's commit 2d859db3e4 ("ext4: fix data corruption in inodes with journalled data"), because we now dereference 'handle' in ext4_journalled_write_end(). I also added BUG_ONs to check for a valid handle in the obviously journal-only aops callbacks. I tested this running xfstests with a scratch device in these modes: - no-journal - data=ordered - data=writeback - data=journal All work fine; the data=journal run has many failures and a crash in xfstests 074, but this is no different from a vanilla kernel.

2011-08-11ext4: Properly count journal credits for long symlinksEric Sandeen
Commit df5e6223407e ("ext4: fix deadlock in ext4_symlink() in ENOSPC conditions") recalculated the number of credits needed for a long symlink, in the process of splitting it into two transactions. However, the first credit calculation under-counted because if selinux is enabled, credits are needed to create the selinux xattr as well. Overrunning the reservation will result in an OOPS in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() due to this assert: J_ASSERT_JH(jh, handle->h_buffer_credits > 0); Fix this by increasing the reservation size.

This is because we don't mark the buffer / page dirty when journalling data but only add the buffer to the running transaction and thus mm does not know there are still unwritten data.

2011-07-23ext4: don't increment s_mb_buddies_generated in ext4_mb_releaseTao Ma
In ext4_mb_release, we use s_mb_buddies_generated++. Although the output is OK, but I don't think we need this extra ++. Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

ext4_mb_load_buddy() calls ext4_get_group_info() for setting both "grp" and "e4b->bd_info", but it could do "e4b->bd_info = grp". Reported-by: Andreas Dilger <adilger@whamcloud.com> Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2011-07-20fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlersJosef Bacik
Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

2011-07-20Ext4: handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA genericallyJosef Bacik
Since Ext4 has its own lseek we need to make sure it handles SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA. For now just do the same thing that is done in the generic case, somebody else can come along and make it do fancy things later.
