2010-04-20[LogFS] Split large truncated into smaller chunksJoern Engel
Truncate would do an almost limitless amount of work without invoking the garbage collector in between. Split it up into more manageable, though still large, chunks. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>
2010-04-17[LogFS] Set s_bdiJoern Engel
Since 32a88aa1 sync() was turned into a NOP for logfs. Worse, sync() would not return an error, giving the illusion that writeout had actually happened. Afaics jffs2 was broken as well. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>
2010-04-15[LogFS] Prevent mempool_destroy NULL pointer dereferenceJoern Engel
It would probably be better to just accept NULL pointers in mempool_destroy(). But for the current -rc series let's keep things simple. This patch was lost in the cracks for a while. Kevin Cernekee <cernekee@gmail.com> had to rediscover the problem and send a similar patch because of it. :( Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>

The assertion is valid independently of the condition. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>
2010-04-13[LogFS] Plug 8 byte information leakJoern Engel
Within each journal segment, 8 bytes at offset 24 would remain uninitialized. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>
2010-04-13[LogFS] Prevent memory corruption on large deletesJoern Engel
Removing sufficiently large files would create aliases for a large number of segments. This in turn results in a large number of journal entries and an overflow of s_je_array. Cheap fix is to add a BUG_ON, turning memory corruption into something annoying, but less dangerous. Real fix is to count the number of affected segments and prevent the problem completely.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
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.

2010-03-29[LogFS] Erase new journal segmentsJoern Engel
If the device contains on old logfs image and the journal is moved to segment that have never been used by the current logfs and not all journal segments are erased before the next mount, the old content can confuse mount code. To prevent this, always erase the new journal segments. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>

2010-03-28[LogFS] Clear PagePrivate when moving journalJoern Engel
do_logfs_journal_wl_pass() must call freeseg(), thereby clear PagePrivate on all pages of the current journal segment. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>
2010-03-28Simplify and fix pad_wbufJoern Engel
A comment in the old code read: /* The math in this function can surely use some love */ And indeed it did. In the case that area->a_used_bytes is exactly 4096 bytes below segment size it fell apart. pad_wbuf is now split into two helpers that are significantly less complicated.

2010-03-28Prevent data corruption in logfs_rewrite_block()Joern Engel
The comment was correct, so make the code match the comment. As the new comment indicates, we might be able to do a little less work. But for the current -rc series let's keep it simple and just fix the bug. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>

If the first superblock is wrong and the second gets written, there will still be a mismatch on next mount. Write both to make sure they match. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>

Intel SSDs have a limit of 0xffff as queue_max_hw_sectors(q). Such a limit may make sense from a hardware pov, but it causes bio_alloc() to return NULL. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>

2010-03-06[LogFS] Change magic numberJoern Engel
Many changes were made during development that could result in old versions of mklogfs and the kernel code being subtly incompatible. Not being a friend of subtleties, I hereby change the magic number. Any old version of mklogfs is now guaranteed to fail.
2010-03-06[LogFS] Remove h_version fieldJoern Engel
Incompatible change: h_compr is moved up so the padding is all in one chunk.
2010-03-05[LogFS] Check feature flagsJoern Engel
2010-03-04[LogFS] Only write journal if dirtyJoern Engel
This prevents unnecessary journal writes. More importantly it prevents an oops due to a journal write on failed mount.
2010-03-04[LogFS] Fix bdev erasesJoern Engel
Erases for block devices were always just emulated by writing 0xff. Some time back the write was removed and only the page cache was changed to 0xff. Superficialy a good idea with two problems: 1. Touching the page cache isn't necessary either. 2. However, writing out 0xff _is_ necessary for the journal. As the journal is scanned linearly, an old non-overwritten commit entry can be used on next mount and cause havoc. This should fix both aspects.
