2012-01-11reiserfs: don't lock root inode searchingFrederic Weisbecker1-15/+13
Nothing requires that we lock the filesystem until the root inode is provided.

2012-01-09reiserfs: Force inode evictions before umount to avoid crashJeff Mahoney1-10/+14
This patch fixes a crash in reiserfs_delete_xattrs during umount. When shrink_dcache_for_umount clears the dcache from generic_shutdown_super, delayed evictions are forced to disk. If an evicted inode has extended attributes associated with it, it will need to walk the xattr tree to locate and remove them. But since shrink_dcache_for_umount will BUG if it encounters active dentries, the xattr tree must be released before it's called or it will crash during every umount. This patch forces the evictions to occur before generic_shutdown_super by calling shrink_dcache_sb first. The additional evictions caused by the removal of each associated xattr file and dir will be automatically handled as they're added to the LRU list.

2011-07-21fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlersJosef Bacik2-3/+19
Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

2011-07-21fs: kill i_alloc_semChristoph Hellwig1-2/+1
i_alloc_sem is a rather special rw_semaphore. It's the last one that may be released by a non-owner, and it's write side is always mirrored by real exclusion. It's intended use it to wait for all pending direct I/O requests to finish before starting a truncate. Replace it with a hand-grown construct: - exclusion for truncates is already guaranteed by i_mutex, so it can simply fall way - the reader side is replaced by an i_dio_count member in struct inode that counts the number of pending direct I/O requests. Truncate can't proceed as long as it's non-zero - when i_dio_count reaches non-zero we wake up a pending truncate using wake_up_bit on a new bit in i_flags - new references to i_dio_count can't appear while we are waiting for it to read zero because the direct I/O count always needs i_mutex (or an equivalent like XFS's i_iolock) for starting a new operation. This scheme is much simpler, and saves the space of a spinlock_t and a struct list_head in struct inode (typically 160 bits on a non-debug 64-bit system).

redundant; all callers get it duplicated in mask & MAY_NOT_BLOCK and none of them removes that bit. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

its value depends only on inode and does not change; we might as well store it in ->i_op->check_acl and be done with that. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-07-18security: new security_inode_init_security API adds function callbackMimi Zohar1-2/+2
This patch changes the security_inode_init_security API by adding a filesystem specific callback to write security extended attributes. This change is in preparation for supporting the initialization of multiple LSM xattrs and the EVM xattr. Initially the callback function walks an array of xattrs, writing each xattr separately, but could be optimized to write multiple xattrs at once. For existing security_inode_init_security() calls, which have not yet been converted to use the new callback function, such as those in reiserfs and ocfs2, this patch defines security_old_inode_init_security().

2011-07-12fixlet: Remove fs_excl from struct task.Justin TerAvest1-13/+0
fs_excl is a poor man's priority inheritance for filesystems to hint to the block layer that an operation is important. It was never clearly specified, not widely adopted, and will not prevent starvation in many cases (like across cgroups). fs_excl was introduced with the time sliced CFQ IO scheduler, to indicate when a process held FS exclusive resources and thus needed a boost. It doesn't cover all file systems, and it was never fully complete. Lets kill it. Signed-off-by: Justin TerAvest <teravest@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-05-27fs: pass exact type of data dirties to ->dirty_inodeChristoph Hellwig1-1/+1
Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or anything else, so that the filesystem can track internally if it needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not. This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet. I plan to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid tree interdependencies. Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block. That has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.
