2006-02-14[PATCH] NLM: Fix the NLM_GRANTED callback checksTrond Myklebust
If 2 threads attached to the same process are blocking on different locks on different files (maybe even on different servers) but have the same lock arguments (i.e. same offset+length - actually quite common, since most processes try to lock the entire file) then the first GRANTED call that wakes one up will also wake the other. Currently when the NLM_GRANTED callback comes in, lockd walks the list of blocked locks in search of a match to the lock that the NLM server has granted. Although it checks the lock pid, start and end, it fails to check the filehandle and the server address. By checking the filehandle and server IP address, we ensure that this only happens if the locks truly are referencing the same file.

2006-02-12[PATCH] reiserfs: disable automatic enabling of reiserfs inode attributesJeff Mahoney
Unfortunately, the reiserfs_attrs_cleared bit in the superblock flag can lie. File systems have been observed with the bit set, yet still contain garbage in the stat data field, causing unpredictable results. This patch backs out the enable-by-default behavior. It eliminates the changes from: d50a5cd860ce721dbeac6a4f3c6e42abcde68cd8, and ef5e5414e7a83eb9b4295bbaba5464410b11e030.

2006-02-11[PATCH] select: fix returned timevalAndrew Morton
With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's `timeout' argument on return. We were writing back a timeout larger than the original. We _deliberately_ round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks us to. The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which was passed in. The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new timeout value to the old one and was returning that. It should just return the new timeout value. (We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in time.h. But this code open-codes it all). Cc: "David S.

2006-02-11[PATCH] fstatat64 supportUlrich Drepper
The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline. The result is that on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement fstatat64. This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined. I renamed the syscall entry point to make this clear. Other archs will continue to use the existing code. On x86-64 the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function. this is what is done for the other stat syscalls as well. This patch might break some other archs (those which define __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall). Yet others might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode. I really don't want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in glibc, but the kernel is also affected). It should be done by the arch maintainers. I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly. Those who are eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed). The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.

2006-02-05[PATCH] VFS: Ensure LOOKUP_CONTINUE flag is preserved by link_path_walk()Trond Myklebust
When walking a path, the LOOKUP_CONTINUE flag is used by some filesystems (for instance NFS) in order to determine whether or not it is looking up the last component of the path. It this is the case, it may have to look at the intent information in order to perform various tasks such as atomic open. A problem currently occurs when link_path_walk() hits a symlink. In this case LOOKUP_CONTINUE may be cleared prematurely when we hit the end of the path passed by __vfs_follow_link() (i.e. the end of the symlink path) rather than when we hit the end of the path passed by the user. The solution is to have link_path_walk() clear LOOKUP_CONTINUE if and only if that flag was unset when we entered the function.

2006-02-05[PATCH] jbd: fix transaction batchingAndrew Morton
Ben points out that: When writing files out using O_SYNC, jbd's 1 jiffy delay results in a significant drop in throughput as the disk sits idle. The patch below results in a 4-5x performance improvement (from 6.5MB/s to ~24-30MB/s on my IDE test box) when writing out files using O_SYNC. So optimise the batching code by omitting it entirely if the process which is doing a sync write is the same as the one which did the most recent sync write. If that's true, we're unlikely to get any other processes joining the transaction. (Has been in -mm for ages - it took me a long time to get on to performance testing it) Numbers, on write-cache-disabled IDE: /usr/bin/time -p synctest -n 10 -uf -t 1 -p 1 dir-name Unpatched: 40 seconds Patched: 35 seconds Batching disabled: 35 seconds This is the problematic single-process-doing-fsync case. With multiple fsyncing processes the numbers are AFACIT unaltered by the patch. Aside: performance testing and instrumentation shows that the transaction batching almost doesn't help (testing with synctest -n 1 -uf -t 100 -p 10 dir-name on non-writeback-caching IDE). This is because by the time one process is running a synchronous commit, a bunch of other processes already have a transaction handle open, so they're all going to batch into the same transaction anyway. The batching seems to offer maybe 5-10% speedup with this workload, but I'm pretty sure it was more important than that when it was first developed 4-odd years ago... Cc: "Stephen C.

As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS loops to use for_each_cpu().

2006-02-03[PATCH] fix O_DIRECT read of last block in a sparse fileJeff Moyer
Currently, if you open a file O_DIRECT, truncate it to a size that is not a multiple of the disk block size, and then try to read the last block in the file, the read will return 0. The problem is in do_direct_IO, here: /* Handle holes */ if (!buffer_mapped(map_bh)) { char *kaddr; ... if (dio->block_in_file >= i_size_read(dio->inode)>>blkbits) { /* We hit eof */ page_cache_release(page); goto out; } We shift off any remaining bytes in the final block of the I/O, resulting in a 0-sized read. I've attached a patch that fixes this. I'm not happy about how ugly the math is getting, so suggestions are more than welcome. I've tested this with a simple program that performs the steps outlined for reproducing the problem above. Without the patch, we get a 0-sized result from read. With the patch, we get the correct return value from the short read.
