<id>urn:sha1:e36cb0b89ce20b4f8786a57e8a6bc8476f577650</id>
<content type='text'>
Convert the following where appropriate:

 (1) S_ISLNK(dentry-&gt;d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).

 (2) S_ISREG(dentry-&gt;d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).

 (3) S_ISDIR(dentry-&gt;d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry).  This is actually more
     complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
     d_can_lookup() instead.  The difference is whether the directory in
     question is a real dir with a -&gt;lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
     a -&gt;d_automount op.

In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry-&gt;d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).

Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer.  In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.

However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.

There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE.  Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.

The following perl+coccinelle script was used:

use strict;

my @callers;
open($fd, 'git grep -l \'S_IS[A-Z].*-&gt;d_inode\' |') ||
    die "Can't grep for S_ISDIR and co. callers";
@callers = &lt;$fd&gt;;
close($fd);
unless (@callers) {
    print "No matches\n";
    exit(0);
}

my @cocci = (
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISLNK(E-&gt;d_inode-&gt;i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_symlink(E)',
    '',
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISDIR(E-&gt;d_inode-&gt;i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_dir(E)',
    '',
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISREG(E-&gt;d_inode-&gt;i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_reg(E)' );

my $coccifile = "tmp.sp.cocci";
open($fd, "&gt;$coccifile") || die $coccifile;
print($fd "$_\n") || die $coccifile foreach (@cocci);
close($fd);

foreach my $file (@callers) {
    chomp $file;
    print "Processing ", $file, "\n";
    system("spatch", "--sp-file", $coccifile, $file, "--in-place", "--no-show-diff") == 0 ||
	die "spatch failed";
}

leaf_dealloc uses vzalloc as a fallback to kzalloc(GFP_NOFS), so
it clearly does not want any shrinker activity within the fs itself.
convert vzalloc into __vmalloc(GFP_NOFS|__GFP_ZERO) to better achieve
this goal.

vfree() is allowed under spinlock these days, but it's cheaper when
it doesn't step into deferred case and here it's very easy to avoid.

<title>GFS2: Make rename not save dirent location</title>

<id>urn:sha1:19aeb5a65f1a6504fc665466c188241e7393d66f</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch fixes a regression in the patch "GFS2: Remember directory
insert point", commit 2b47dad866d04f14c328f888ba5406057b8c7d33.
The problem had to do with the rename function: The function found
space for the new dirent, and remembered that location. But then the
old dirent was removed, which often moved the eligible location for
the renamed dirent. Putting the new dirent at the saved location
caused file system corruption.

This patch adds a new "save_loc" variable to struct gfs2_diradd.
If 1, the dirent location is saved. If 0, the dirent location is not
saved and the buffer_head is released as per previous behavior.

<title>GFS2: Add meta readahead field in directory entries</title>

<id>urn:sha1:44aaada9d144a46d3de48ad81093f69d17fae96f</id>
<content type='text'>
The intent of this new field in the directory entry is to
allow a subsequent lookup to know how many blocks, which
are contiguous with the inode, contain metadata which relates
to the inode. This will then allow the issuing of a single
read to read these blocks, rather than reading the inode
first, and then issuing a second read for the metadata.

This only works under some fairly strict conditions, since
we do not have back pointers from inodes to directory entries
we must ensure that the blocks referenced in this way will
always belong to the inode.

This rules out being able to use this system for indirect
blocks, as these can change as a result of truncate/rewrite.

So the idea here is to restrict this to xattr blocks only
for the time being. For most inodes, that means only a
single block. Also, when using ACLs and/or SELinux or
other LSMs, these will be added at inode creation time
so that they will be contiguous with the inode on disk and
also will almost always be needed when we read the inode in
for permissions checks.

Once an xattr block for an inode is allocated, it will never
change until the inode is deallocated.

This patch adds the new field, a further patch will add the
readahead in due course.

<title>GFS2: Add hints to directory leaf blocks</title>

<id>urn:sha1:01bcb0dedbcd77a5ebb4f2dfd7d3196e3ad5cea5</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds four new fields to directory leaf blocks.
The intent is not to use them in the kernel itself, although
perhaps we may be able to use them as hints at some later date,
but instead to provide more information for debug/fsck use.

One new field adds a pointer to the inode to which the leaf
belongs. This can be useful if the pointer to the leaf block
has become corrupt, as it will allow us to know which inode
this block should be associated with. This field is set when
the leaf is created and never changed over its lifetime.

The second field is a "distance from the hash table" field.
The meaning is as follows:
 0  = An old leaf in which this value has not been set
 1  = This leaf is pointed to directly from the hash table
 2+ = This leaf is part of a chain, pointed to by another leaf
      block, the value gives the position in the chain.

The third and fourth fields combine to give a time stamp of
the most recent directory insertion or deletion from this
leaf block. The time stamp is not updated when a new leaf
block is chained from the current one. The code is currently
written such that the timestamp on the dir inode will match
that of the leaf block for the most recent insertion/deletion.

For backwards compatibility, any of these new fields which is
zero should be considered to be "unknown".

<title>GFS2: For exhash conversion, only one block is needed</title>

<id>urn:sha1:22b5a6c0c0cd5eb524d31c949d113c6683e37ec9</id>
<content type='text'>
For most cases, only a single new block is needed when we reach
the point of converting from stuffed to exhash directory. The
exception being when the file name is so long that it will not
fit within the new leaf block.

So this patch adds a simple test for that situation so that we
do not need to request the full reservation size in this case.

Potentially we could calculate more accurately the value to use
in other cases too, but that is much more complicated to do and
it is doubtful that the benefit would outweigh the extra cost
in code complexity.
