2009-06-11push BKL down into ->put_superChristoph Hellwig
Move BKL into ->put_super from the only caller. A couple of filesystems had trivial enough ->put_super (only kfree and NULLing of s_fs_info + stuff in there) to not get any locking: coda, cramfs, efs, hugetlbfs, omfs, qnx4, shmem, all others got the full treatment. Most of them probably don't need it, but I'd rather sort that out individually. Preferably after all the other BKL pushdowns in that area. [AV: original used to move lock_super() down as well; these changes are removed since we don't do lock_super() at all in generic_shutdown_super() now] [AV: fuse, btrfs and xfs are known to need no damn BKL, exempt] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2009-06-11enforce ->sync_fs is only called for rw superblockChristoph Hellwig
Make sure a superblock really is writeable by checking MS_RDONLY under s_umount. sync_filesystems needed some re-arragement for that, but all but one sync_filesystem caller had the correct locking already so that we could add that check there. cachefiles grew s_umount locking. I've also added a WARN_ON to sync_filesystem to assert this for future callers. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2009-06-08UBIFS: start using hrtimersArtem Bityutskiy
UBIFS uses timers for write-buffer write-back. It is not crucial for us to write-back exactly on time. We are fine to write-back a little earlier or later. And this means we may optimize UBIFS timer so that it could be groped with a close timer event, so that the CPU would not be waken up just to do the write back. This is optimization to lessen power consumption, which is important in embedded devices UBIFS is used for. hrtimers have a nice feature: they are effectively range timers, and we may defind the soft and hard limits for it. Standard timers do not have these feature. They may only be made deferrable, but this means there is effectively no hard limit. So, we will better use hrtimers.

2009-06-02UBIFS: allow sync option in rootflagsArtem Bityutskiy
When passing UBIFS parameters via kernel command line, the sync option will be passed to UBIFS as a string, not as an MS_SYNCHRONOUS flag. Teach UBIFS interpreting this flag. Reported-by: Aurélien GÉRÔME <ag@debian.org> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2009-05-26UBIFS: use anonymous deviceArtem Bityutskiy
UBIFS has erroneuosly set 'sb->s_dev' to the UBI volume character device major/minor. This may lead to clashes if there is another FS mounted to a block device with the same major/minor numbers. User-space programs which use 'stat->st_dev' may get confused because of this. This problem was found by Al Viro. He also pointed the way to fix the problem - use 'set_anon_super()' and 'kill_anon_super()' VFS helpers. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2009-05-06UBIFS: reset no_space flag after inode deletionAdrian Hunter
When UBIFS runs out of space it spends a lot of time trying to find more space before returning ENOSPC. As there is no point repeating that unless something has changed, UBIFS has an optimization to record that the file system is 100% full and not try to find space. That flag was not being reset when a pending deletion was finally done. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@nokia.com> Reviewed-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2009-03-27vfs: simple_set_mnt() should return voidSukadev Bhattiprolu
simple_set_mnt() is defined as returning 'int' but always returns 0. Callers assume simple_set_mnt() never fails and don't properly cleanup if it were to _ever_ fail. For instance, get_sb_single() and get_sb_nodev() should: up_write(sb->s_unmount); deactivate_super(sb); if simple_set_mnt() fails. Since simple_set_mnt() never fails, would be cleaner if it did not return anything.

2009-03-26UBIFS: add R/O compatibilityArtem Bityutskiy
Now UBIFS is supported by u-boot. If we ever decide to change the media format, then people will have to upgrade their u-boots to mount new format images. However, very often it is possible to preserve R/O forward-compatibility, even though the write forward-compatibility is not preserved. This patch introduces a new super-block field which stores the R/O compatibility version.

2009-03-16UBIFS: introduce a helpful variableArtem Bityutskiy
This patch introduces a helpful @c->idx_leb_size variable. The patch also fixes some spelling issues and makes comments use "LEB" instead of "eraseblock", which is more correct. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2009-03-15UBIFS: fix bogus assertionArtem Bityutskiy
Empty journal head LEBs are accounted as taken empty as well, so the GC LEB does not have to be the only taken empty LEB when nounting/remounting. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2009-01-29UBIFS: remove fast unmountingArtem Bityutskiy
This UBIFS feature has never worked properly, and it was a mistake to add it because we simply have no use-cases. So, lets still accept the fast_unmount mount option, but ignore it. This does not change much, because UBIFS commit in sync_fs anyway, and sync_fs is called while unmounting. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2009-01-29UBIFS: return sensible error codesArtem Bityutskiy
When mounting/re-mounting, UBIFS returns EINVAL even if the ENOSPC or EROFS codes are are much better, just because we have not found references to ENOSPC/EROFS in mount (2) man pages. This patch changes this behaviour and makes UBIFS return real error code, because: 1. It is just less confusing and more logical 2. mount is not described in SuSv3, so it seems to be not really well-standartized 3. we do not cover all cases, and any random undocumented in man pages error code may be returned anyway Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2009-01-29UBIFS: remount ro fixesAdrian Hunter

2009-01-26UBIFS: fix assertionsArtem Bityutskiy
I introduce wrong assertions in one of the previous commits, this patch fixes them. Also, initialize debugfs after the debugging check.

2009-01-26UBIFS: ensure orphan area head is initializedAdrian Hunter

2009-01-26UBIFS: always clean up GC LEB spaceArtem Bityutskiy
When we mount UBIFS, GC LEB may contain out-of-date information, and UBIFS should update lprops and set free space for thei LEB. Currently UBIFS does this only if mounted R/W. But for R/O mount we have to do the same, because otherwise we will have incorrect FS free space reported to user-space. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2009-01-26UBIFS: add re-mount debugging checksArtem Bityutskiy

2009-01-26UBIFS: fix LEB list freeingArtem Bityutskiy
When freeing the c->idx_lebs list, we have to release the LEBs as well, because we might be called from mount to read-only mode code. Otherwise the LEBs stay taken forever, which may cause problems when we re-mount back ro RW mode. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2009-01-18UBIFS: do not commit twiceArtem Bityutskiy
VFS calls '->sync_fs()' twice - first time with @wait = 0, second time with @wait = 1. As a result, we may commit and synchronize write-buffers twice. Avoid doing this by returning immediatelly if @wait = 0. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2009-01-06UBIFS: do not use WB_SYNC_HOLDArtem Bityutskiy
WB_SYNC_HOLD is going to be zapped so we should not use it. Use %WB_SYNC_NONE instead. Here is what akpm said: "I think I'll just switch that to WB_SYNC_NONE. The `wait==0' mode is just an advisory thing to help the fs shove lots of data into the queues. If some gets missed then it'll be picked up on the second ->sync_fs call, with wait==1."

2008-12-31UBIFS: always commit on unmountArtem Bityutskiy
UBIFS commits on unmount to make the next mount faster. Currently, it commits only if there is more than LEB size bytes in the journal. This is not very good, because journal size may be large (512KiB). And there may be few deletions in the journal which do not take much journal space, but which do introduce a lot of TNC changes and make mount slow. Thus, jurt remove this condition and always commit. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2008-12-31UBIFS: always commit in sync_fsArtem Bityutskiy
Always run commit in sync_fs, because even if the journal seems to be almost empty, there may be a deletion which removes a large file, which affects the index greatly. And because we want better free space predictions after 'sync_fs()', we have to commit. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2008-12-31UBIFS: fix file-system synchronizationArtem Bityutskiy
Argh. The ->sync_fs call is called _before_ all inodes are flushed. This means we first sync write buffers and commit, then all inodes are synced, and we end up with unflushed write buffers! Fix this by forcing synching all indoes from 'ubifs_sync_fs()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2008-12-31UBIFS: fix constants initializationArtem Bityutskiy
The c->min_idx_lebs constant depends on c->old_idx_sz, which is read from the master node. This means that we have to initialize c->min_idx_lebs only after we have read the master node. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2008-12-23UBIFS: fix available blocks countArtem Bityutskiy
Take into account that 2 eraseblocks are never available because they are reserved for the index. This gives more realistic count of FS blocks. To avoid future confusions like this, introduce a constant. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2008-11-21UBIFS: pre-allocate bulk-read bufferArtem Bityutskiy
To avoid memory allocation failure during bulk-read, pre-allocate a bulk-read buffer, so that if there is only one bulk-reader at a time, it would just use the pre-allocated buffer and would not do any memory allocation. However, if there are more than 1 bulk- reader, then only one reader would use the pre-allocated buffer, while the other reader would allocate the buffer for itself. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2008-11-21UBIFS: do not allocate too muchArtem Bityutskiy
Bulk-read allocates 128KiB or more using kmalloc. The allocation starts failing often when the memory gets fragmented. UBIFS still works fine in this case, because it falls-back to standard (non-optimized) read method, though. This patch teaches bulk-read to allocate exactly the amount of memory it needs, instead of allocating 128KiB every time. This patch is also a preparation to the further fix where we'll have a pre-allocated bulk-read buffer as well. For example, now the @bu object is prepared in 'ubifs_bulk_read()', so we could path either pre-allocated or allocated information to 'ubifs_do_bulk_read()' later. Or teaching 'ubifs_do_bulk_read()' not to allocate 'bu->buf' if it is already there. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2008-11-21UBIFS: do not print scary memory allocation warningsArtem Bityutskiy
Bulk-read allocates a lot of memory with 'kmalloc()', and when it is/gets fragmented 'kmalloc()' fails with a scarry warning. But because bulk-read is just an optimization, UBIFS keeps working fine. Supress the warning by passing __GFP_NOWARN option to 'kmalloc()'. This patch also introduces a macro for the magic 128KiB constant. This is just neater. Note, this is not really fixes the problem we had, but just hides the warnings. The further patches fix the problem. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
