2013-02-04fuse: avoid out-of-scope stack accessEric Wong1-3/+10
The all pointers within fuse_req must point to valid memory once fuse_force_forget() returns. This bug appeared in "fuse: implement NFS-like readdirplus support" and was never in any official Linux release. I tested the fuse_force_forget() code path by injecting to fake -ENOMEM and verified the FORGET operation was called properly in userspace.

2013-01-24fuse: optimize __fuse_direct_io()Maxim Patlasov1-4/+21
__fuse_direct_io() allocates fuse-requests by calling fuse_get_req(fc, n). The patch calculates 'n' based on iov[] array. This is useful because allocating FUSE_MAX_PAGES_PER_REQ page pointers and descriptors for each fuse request would be waste of memory in case of iov-s of smaller size.

2013-01-24fuse: optimize fuse_get_user_pages()Maxim Patlasov1-28/+51
Let fuse_get_user_pages() pack as many iov-s to a single fuse_req as possible. This is very beneficial in case of iov[] consisting of many iov-s of relatively small sizes (e.g. PAGE_SIZE). Signed-off-by: Maxim Patlasov <mpatlasov@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
2013-01-24fuse: pass iov[] to fuse_get_user_pages()Maxim Patlasov1-54/+49
The patch makes preliminary work for the next patch optimizing scatter-gather direct IO. The idea is to allow fuse_get_user_pages() to pack as many iov-s to each fuse request as possible. So, here we only rework all related call-paths to carry iov[] from fuse_direct_IO() to fuse_get_user_pages().

2013-01-24fuse: use req->page_descs[] for argpages casesMaxim Patlasov4-4/+25
Previously, anyone who set flag 'argpages' only filled req->pages[] and set per-request page_offset. This patch re-works all cases where argpages=1 to fill req->page_descs[] properly. Having req->page_descs[] filled properly allows to re-work fuse_copy_pages() to copy page fragments described by req->page_descs[]. This will be useful for next patches optimizing direct_IO.

2013-01-24fuse: add per-page descriptor <offset, length> to fuse_reqMaxim Patlasov3-16/+37
The ability to save page pointers along with lengths and offsets in fuse_req will be useful to cover several iovec-s with a single fuse_req. Per-request page_offset is removed because anybody who need it can use req->page_descs[0].offset instead.

2013-01-24fuse: rework fuse_do_ioctl()Maxim Patlasov1-1/+1

2013-01-24fuse: rework fuse_readpages()Maxim Patlasov1-2/+14
The patch uses 'nr_pages' argument of fuse_readpages() as heuristics for the number of page pointers to allocate.

2013-01-24fuse: rework fuse_retrieve()Maxim Patlasov1-10/+15
The patch reworks fuse_retrieve() to allocate only so many page pointers as needed. The core part of the patch is the following calculation: num_pages = (num + offset + PAGE_SIZE - 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT; (thanks Miklos for formula). All other changes are mostly shuffling lines.

2013-01-24fuse: categorize fuse_get_req()Maxim Patlasov6-45/+57
The patch categorizes all fuse_get_req() invocations into two categories: - fuse_get_req_nopages(fc) - when caller doesn't care about req->pages - fuse_get_req(fc, n) - when caller need n page pointers (n > 0) Adding fuse_get_req_nopages() helps to avoid numerous fuse_get_req(fc, 0) scattered over code. Now it's clear from the first glance when a caller need fuse_req with page pointers. The patch doesn't make any logic changes. In multi-page case, it silly allocates array of FUSE_MAX_PAGES_PER_REQ page pointers. This will be amended by future patches.

2013-01-24fuse: general infrastructure for pages[] of variable sizeMaxim Patlasov4-20/+50
The patch removes inline array of FUSE_MAX_PAGES_PER_REQ page pointers from fuse_req. Instead of that, req->pages may now point either to small inline array or to an array allocated dynamically. This essentially means that all callers of fuse_request_alloc[_nofs] should pass the number of pages needed explicitly. The patch doesn't make any logic changes.

2013-01-24fuse: implement NFS-like readdirplus supportAnand V. Avati4-5/+185
This patch implements readdirplus support in FUSE, similar to NFS. The payload returned in the readdirplus call contains 'fuse_entry_out' structure thereby providing all the necessary inputs for 'faking' a lookup() operation on the spot. If the dentry and inode already existed (for e.g. in a re-run of ls -l) then just the inode attributes timeout and dentry timeout are refreshed. With a simple client->network->server implementation of a FUSE based filesystem, the following performance observations were made: Test: Performing a filesystem crawl over 20,000 files with sh# time ls -lR /mnt Without readdirplus: Run 1: 18.1s Run 2: 16.0s Run 3: 16.2s With readdirplus: Run 1: 4.1s Run 2: 3.8s Run 3: 3.8s The performance improvement is significant as it avoided 20,000 upcalls calls (lookup). Cache consistency is no worse than what already is. Signed-off-by: Anand V. Avati <avati@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

If some small bios of dirty node pages are supposed to be issued during the sequential data writes, there-in well-produced consecutive data bios are able to be split by the small node bios, resulting in performance degradation. So, let's collect a number of dirty node pages until reaching a threshold. And, by default, I set the threshold as 2MB, a segment size.

2013-01-17xfs: recalculate leaf entry pointer after compacting a dir2 blockEric Sandeen1-2/+4
Dave Jones hit this assert when doing a compile on recent git, with CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG enabled: XFS: Assertion failed: (char *)dup - (char *)hdr == be16_to_cpu(*xfs_dir2_data_unused_tag_p(dup)), file: fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_data.c, line: 828 Upon further digging, the tag found by xfs_dir2_data_unused_tag_p(dup) contained "2" and not the proper offset, and I found that this value was changed after the memmoves under "Use a stale leaf for our new entry." in xfs_dir2_block_addname(), i.e. memmove(&blp[mid + 1], &blp[mid], (highstale - mid) * sizeof(*blp)); overwrote it. What has happened is that the previous call to xfs_dir2_block_compact() has rearranged things; it changes btp->count as well as the blp array. So after we make that call, we must recalculate the proper pointer to the leaf entries by making another call to xfs_dir2_block_leaf_p(). Dave provided a metadump image which led to a simple reproducer (create a particular filename in the affected directory) and this resolves the testcase as well as the bug on his live system.

2013-01-15f2fs: remove the blk_plug usage in f2fs_write_data_pagesNamjae Jeon1-1/+10
Let's consider the usage of blk_plug in f2fs_write_data_pages(). We can come up with the two issues: lock contention and task awareness. 1. Merging bios prior to grabing "queue lock" The f2fs merges consecutive IOs in the file system level before submitting any bios, which is similar with the back merge by the plugging mechanism in attempt_plug_merge(). Both of them need to acquire no queue lock. 2. Merging policy with respect to tasks The f2fs merges IOs as much as possible regardless of tasks, while blk-plugging is conducted on a basis of tasks. As we can understand there are trade-offs, f2fs tries to maximize the write performance with well-merged bios. As a result, if f2fs produces many consecutive but separated bios in writepages(), it would be good to use blk-plugging since f2fs would be able to avoid queue lock contention in the block layer by merging them. But, f2fs merges IOs and submit one bio, which means that there are not much chances to merge bios by attempt_plug_merge(). However, f2fs has already been used blk_plug by triggering generic_writepages() in f2fs_write_data_pages(). So to make the overall code consistency, I'd like to remove blk_plug there.

2013-01-15vfs: add missing virtual cache flush after editing partial pagesLinus Torvalds1-0/+1
Andrew Morton pointed this out a month ago, and then I completely forgot about it. If we read a partial last page of a block device, we will zero out the end of the page, but since that page can then be mapped into user space, we should also make sure to flush the cache on architectures that have virtual caches. We have the flush_dcache_page() function for this, so use it. Now, in practice this really never matters, because nobody sane uses virtual caches to begin with, and they largely exist on old broken RISC arhitectures. And even if you did run on one of those obsolete CPU's, the whole "mmap and access the last partial page of a block device" behavior probably doesn't actually exist. The normal IO functions (read/write) will never see the zeroed-out part of the page that migth not be coherent in the cache, because they honor the size of the device. So I'm marking this for stable (3.7 only), but I'm not sure anybody will ever care.

2013-01-14f2fs: avoid redundant time update for parent directory in f2fs_delete_entryNamjae Jeon1-1/+1
In call to f2fs_delete_entry, 'dir' time modification code is put at two places. So, remove the redundant code for timing update. Signed-off-by: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Amit Sahrawat <a.sahrawat@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>
2013-01-14f2fs: remove redundant call to set_blocksize in f2fs_fill_superNamjae Jeon1-5/+1
Since, f2fs supports only 4KB blocksize, which is set at the beginning in f2fs_fill_super. So, we do not need to again check this blocksize setting in such case.

2013-01-12fs/exec.c: work around icc miscompilationXi Wang1-1/+2
The tricky problem is this check: if (i++ >= max) icc (mis)optimizes this check as: if (++i > max) The check now becomes a no-op since max is MAX_ARG_STRINGS (0x7FFFFFFF). This is "allowed" by the C standard, assuming i++ never overflows, because signed integer overflow is undefined behavior. This optimization effectively reverts the previous commit 362e6663ef23 ("exec.c, compat.c: fix count(), compat_count() bounds checking") that tries to fix the check. This patch simply moves ++ after the check.

2013-01-11f2fs: move f2fs_balance_fs to punch_holeJaegeuk Kim1-3/+2
The f2fs_fallocate() has two operations: punch_hole and expand_size. Only in the case of punch_hole, dirty node pages can be produced, so let's trigger f2fs_balance_fs() in this case only. Furthermore, let's trigger it at every data truncation routine. Signed-off-by: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>
