2013-04-30	fat (exportfs): rebuild directory-inode if fat_dget()	Namjae Jeon	1	-1/+51
	This patch enables rebuilding of directory inodes which are not present in the cache.This is done by traversing the disk clusters to find the directory entry of the parent directory and using its i_pos to build the inode. The traversal is done by fat_scan_logstart() which is similar to fat_scan() but matches i_pos values instead of names.fat_scan_logstart() needs an inode parameter to work, for which a dummy inode is created by it's caller fat_rebuild_parent(). This dummy inode is destroyed after the traversal completes. All this is done only if the nostale_ro nfs mount option is specified.

2013-04-30	fat (exportfs): rebuild inode if ilookup() fails	Namjae Jeon	1	-5/+36
	If the cache lookups fail,use the i_pos value to find the directory entry of the inode and rebuild the inode.Since this involves accessing the FAT media, do this only if the nostale_ro nfs mount option is specified.

2013-04-30	fat: restructure export_operations	Namjae Jeon	1	-5/+125
	Define two nfs export_operation structures,one for 'stale_rw' mounts and the other for 'nostale_ro'. The latter uses i_pos as a basis for encoding and decoding file handles. Also, assign i_pos to kstat->ino. The logic for rebuilding the inode is added in the subsequent patches.

2013-02-28	hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators	Sasha Levin	1	-2/+1
	I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually. The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here: @@ iterator name hlist_for_each_entry, hlist_for_each_entry_continue, hlist_for_each_entry_from, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh, for_each_busy_worker, ax25_uid_for_each, ax25_for_each, inet_bind_bucket_for_each, sctp_for_each_hentry, sk_for_each, sk_for_each_rcu, sk_for_each_from, sk_for_each_safe, sk_for_each_bound, hlist_for_each_entry_safe, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu, nr_neigh_for_each, nr_neigh_for_each_safe, nr_node_for_each, nr_node_for_each_safe, for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp, for_each_gfn_sp, for_each_host; type T; expression a,c,d,e; identifier b; statement S; @@ -T b; <+... when != b ( hlist_for_each_entry(a, - b, c, d) S \| hlist_for_each_entry_continue(a, - b, c) S \| hlist_for_each_entry_from(a, - b, c) S \| hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(a, - b, c, d) S \| hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh(a, - b, c, d) S \| hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(a, - b, c) S \| for_each_busy_worker(a, c, - b, d) S \| ax25_uid_for_each(a, - b, c) S \| ax25_for_each(a, - b, c) S \| inet_bind_bucket_for_each(a, - b, c) S \| sctp_for_each_hentry(a, - b, c) S \| sk_for_each(a, - b, c) S \| sk_for_each_rcu(a, - b, c) S \| sk_for_each_from -(a, b) +(a) S + sk_for_each_from(a) S \| sk_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S \| sk_for_each_bound(a, - b, c) S \| hlist_for_each_entry_safe(a, - b, c, d, e) S \| hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(a, - b, c) S \| nr_neigh_for_each(a, - b, c) S \| nr_neigh_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S \| nr_node_for_each(a, - b, c) S \| nr_node_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S \| - for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d) S \| - for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d) S \| for_each_host(a, - b, c) S \| for_each_host_safe(a, - b, c, d) S \| for_each_mesh_entry(a, - b, c, d) S ) ...+> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus change from net/ipv4/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus hunk from net/ipv6/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings] [akpm@linux-foudnation.org: redo intrusive kvm changes] Tested-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@gmail.com> Acked-by: Paul E.

2012-10-05	fat (exportfs): fix dentry reconnection	Steven J. Magnani	1	-100/+50
	Maintain an index of directory inodes by starting cluster, so that fat_get_parent() can return the proper cached inode rather than inventing one that cannot be traced back to the filesystem root. Add a new msdos/vfat binary mount option "nfs" so that FAT filesystems that are _not_ exported via NFS are not saddled with maintenance of an index they will never use. Finally, simplify NFS file handle generation and lookups. An ext2-congruent implementation is adequate for FAT needs. Signed-off-by: Steven J.

2012-10-05	fat (exportfs): move NFS support code	Steven J. Magnani	1	-0/+151
	Under memory pressure, the system may evict dentries from cache. When the FAT driver receives a NFS request involving an evicted dentry, it is unable to reconnect it to the filesystem root. This causes the request to fail, often with ENOENT. This is partially due to ineffectiveness of the current FAT NFS implementation, and partially due to an unimplemented fh_to_parent method. The latter can cause file accesses to fail on shares exported with subtree_check. This patch set provides the FAT driver with the ability to reconnect dentries. NFS file handle generation and lookups are simplified and made congruent with ext2. Testing has involved a memory-starved virtual machine running 3.5-rc5 that exports a ~2 GB vfat filesystem containing a kernel tree (~770 MB, ~40000 files, 9 levels). Both 'cp -r' and 'ls -lR' operations were performed from a client, some overlapping, some consecutive. Exports with 'subtree_check' and 'no_subtree_check' have been tested. Note that while this patch set improves FAT's NFS support, it does not eliminate ESTALE errors completely. The following should be considered for NFS clients who are sensitive to ESTALE: * Mounting with lookupcache=none Unfortunately this can degrade performance severely, particularly for deep filesystems. * Incorporating VFS patches to retry ESTALE failures on the client-side, such as https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/29/381 * Handling ESTALE errors in client application code This patch: Move NFS-related code into its own C file.
