This patch introduces the first stage of RAID5 support
mainly the skip-over-raid-units when reading. For
writes it inserts BLANK units, into where XOR blocks
should be calculated and written to.
It introduces the new "general raid maths", and the main
additional parameters and components needed for raid5.
Since at this stage it could corrupt future version that
actually do support raid5. The enablement of raid5
mounting and setting of parity-count > 0 is disabled. So
the raid5 code will never be used. Mounting of raid5 is
only enabled later once the basic XOR write is also in.
But if the patch "enable RAID5" is applied this code has
been tested to be able to properly read raid5 volumes
and is according to standard.
Also it has been tested that the new maths still properly
supports RAID0 and grouping code just as before.
(BTW: I have found more bugs in the pnfs-obj RAID math
fixed here)
The ore.c file is getting too big, so new ore_raid.[hc]
files are added that will include the special raid stuff
that are not used in striping and mirrors. In future write
support these will get bigger.
When adding the ore_raid.c to Kbuild file I was forced to
rename ore.ko to libore.ko. Is it possible to keep source
file, say ore.c and module file ore.ko the same even if there
are multiple files inside ore.ko?

fs/exofs directory has multiple targets now, of which the
ore.ko will be needed by the pnfs-objects-layout-driver
(fs/nfs/objlayout).
As suggested by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> convert
inclusion of exofs/ from obj-$(CONFIG_EXOFS_FS) => obj-$(y).
So ORE can be selected also from fs/nfs/Kconfig

Current ore_check_io API receives a residual
pointer, to report partial IO. But it is actually
not used, because in a multiple devices IO there
is never a linearity in the IO failure.
On the other hand if every failing device is reported
through a received callback measures can be taken to
handle only failed devices. One at a time.
This will also be needed by the objects-layout-driver
for it's error reporting facility.
Exofs is not currently using the new information and
keeps the old behaviour of failing the complete IO in
case of an error. (No partial completion)
TODO: Use an ore_check_io callback to set_page_error only
the failing pages. And re-dirty write pages.

All users of the ore will need to check if current code
supports the given layout. For example RAID5/6 is not
currently supported.
So move all the checks from exofs/super.c to a new
ore_verify_layout() to be used by ore users.
Note that any new layout should be passed through the
ore_verify_layout() because the ore engine will prepare
and verify some internal members of ore_layout, and
assumes it's called.

Users like the objlayout-driver would like to only pass
a partial device table that covers the IO in question.
For example exofs divides the file into raid-group-sized
chunks and only serves group_width number of devices at
a time.
The partiality is communicated by setting
ore_componets->first_dev and the array covers all logical
devices from oc->first_dev upto (oc->first_dev + oc->numdevs)
The ore_comp_dev() API receives a logical device index
and returns the actual present device in the table.
An out-of-range dev_index will BUG.
Logical device index is the theoretical device index as if
all the devices of a file are present. .i.e:
total_devs = group_width * mirror_p1 * group_count
0 <= dev_index < total_devs

Memory conditions and max_bio constraints might cause us to
not comply to the full length of the requested IO. Instead of
failing the complete IO we can issue a shorter read/write and
report how much was actually executed in the ios->length
member.
All users must check ios->length at IO_done or upon return of
ore_read/write and re-issue the reminder of the bytes. Because
other wise there is no error returned like before.
This is part of the effort to support the pnfs-obj layout driver.

If at read/write_done the actual IO was shorter then requested,
reported in returned ios->length. It is not an error. The reminder
of the pages should just be unlocked but not marked uptodate or
end_page_writeback. They will be re issued later by the VFS.

Now that each ore_io_state covers only a single raid group.
A single striping_info math is needed. Embed one inside
ore_io_state to cache the calculation results and eliminate
an extra call.
Also the outer _prepare_for_striping is removed since it does nothing.

Usually a single IO is confined to one group of devices
(group_width) and at the boundary of a raid group it can
spill into a second group. Current code would allocate a
full device_table size array at each io_state so it can
comply to requests that span two groups. Needless to say
that is very wasteful, specially when device_table count
can get very large (hundreds even thousands), while a
group_width is usually 8 or 10.
* Change ore API to trim on IO that spans two raid groups.
The user passes offset+length to ore_get_rw_state, the
ore might trim on that length if spanning a group boundary.
The user must check ios->length or ios->nrpages to see
how much IO will be preformed. It is the responsibility
of the user to re-issue the reminder of the IO.
* Modify exofs To copy spilled pages on to the next IO.
This means one last kick is needed after all coalescing
of pages is done.

In the pNFS obj-LD the device table at the layout level needs
to point to a device_cache node, where it is possible and likely
that many layouts will point to the same device-nodes.
In Exofs we have a more orderly structure where we have a single
array of devices that repeats twice for a round-robin view of the
device table
This patch moves to a model that can be used by the pNFS obj-LD
where struct ore_components holds an array of ore_dev-pointers.
(ore_dev is newly defined and contains a struct osd_dev *od
member)
Each pointer in the array of pointers will point to a bigger
user-defined dev_struct. That can be accessed by use of the
container_of macro.
In Exofs an __alloc_dev_table() function allocates the
ore_dev-pointers array as well as an exofs_dev array, in one
allocation and does the addresses dance to set everything pointing
correctly. It still keeps the double allocation trick for the
inodes round-robin view of the table.
The device table is always allocated dynamically, also for the
single device case. So it is unconditionally freed at umount.

The struct pnfs_osd_data_map data_map member of exofs_sb_info was
never used after mount. In fact all it's members were duplicated
by the ore_layout structure. So just remove the duplicated information.
Also removed some stupid, but perfectly supported, restrictions on
layout parameters. The case where num_devices is not divisible by
mirror_count+1 is perfectly fine since the rotating device view
will eventually use all the devices it can get.

If we write some data into the data hole of the file(no preallocation for this
hole), Btrfs will allocate some disk space, and update nbytes of the inode, but

update inode metadata though disk_i_size is not changed(btrfs_ordered_update_i_size()

Since commit f758eeabeb96f878c860e8f110f94ec8820822a9
bdev_inode_switch_bdi will dereference the 'old' bdi, which lives
inside a request_queue, to get a spin lock. This causes the last
close on an md device to sometime take a spin_lock which lives in
freed memory - which results in an oops.
So move the called to bdev_inode_switch_bdi before the call to

Prior to 2.6.38 automount would not trigger on either stat(2) or
lstat(2) on the automount point.
After 2.6.38, with the introduction of the ->d_automount()
infrastructure, stat(2) and others would start triggering automount
while lstat(2), etc. still would not. This is a regression and a
userspace ABI change.
Problem originally reported here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.autofs/6098
It appears that there was an attempt at fixing various userspace tools
to not trigger the automount. But since the stat system call is
rather common it is impossible to "fix" all userspace.
This patch reverts the original behavior, which is to not trigger on
stat(2) and other symlink following syscalls.
[ It's not really clear what the right behavior is. Apparently Solaris
does the "automount on stat, leave alone on lstat". And some programs
can get unhappy when "stat+open+fstat" ends up giving a different
result from the fstat than from the initial stat.
But the change in 2.6.38 resulted in problems for some people, so
we're going back to old behavior. Maybe we can re-visit this
discussion at some future date - Linus ]

During umount we do not add a dirty inode to the lru and wait for it to
become clean first, but force writeback of data and metadata with
I_WILL_FREE set. Currently there is no way for XFS to detect that the
inode has been redirtied for metadata operations, as we skip the
mark_inode_dirty call during teardown. Fix this by setting i_update_core
nanually in that case, so that the inode gets flushed during inode reclaim.
Alternatively we could enable calling mark_inode_dirty for inodes in
I_WILL_FREE state, and let the VFS dirty tracking handle this. I decided
against this as we will get better I/O patterns from reclaim compared to
the synchronous writeout in write_inode_now, and always marking the inode
dirty in some way from xfs_mark_inode_dirty is a better safetly net in
either case.

ext4: remove i_mutex lock in ext4_evict_inode to fix lockdep complaining
|
|
The i_mutex lock and flush_completed_IO() added by commit 2581fdc810
in ext4_evict_inode() causes lockdep complaining about potential
deadlock in several places. In most/all of these LOCKDEP complaints
it looks like it's a false positive, since many of the potential
circular locking cases can't take place by the time the
ext4_evict_inode() is called; but since at the very least it may mask
real problems, we need to address this.
This change removes the flush_completed_IO() and i_mutex lock in
ext4_evict_inode(). Instead, we take a different approach to resolve
the software lockup that commit 2581fdc810 intends to fix. Rather
than having ext4-dio-unwritten thread wait for grabing the i_mutex
lock of an inode, we use mutex_trylock() instead, and simply requeue
the work item if we fail to grab the inode's i_mutex lock.
This should speed up work queue processing in general and also
prevents the following deadlock scenario: During page fault,
shrink_icache_memory is called that in turn evicts another inode B.
Inode B has some pending io_end work so it calls ext4_ioend_wait()
that waits for inode B's i_ioend_count to become zero. However, inode
B's ioend work was queued behind some of inode A's ioend work on the
same cpu's ext4-dio-unwritten workqueue. As the ext4-dio-unwritten
thread on that cpu is processing inode A's ioend work, it tries to
grab inode A's i_mutex lock. Since the i_mutex lock of inode A is
still hold before the page fault happened, we enter a deadlock.

Purely in-memory filesystems do not use the inode hash as the dcache
tells us if an entry already exists. As a result, they do not call
unlock_new_inode, and thus directory inodes do not get put into a
different lockdep class for i_sem.
We need the different lockdep classes, because the locking order for
i_mutex is different for directory inodes and regular inodes. Directory
inodes can do "readdir()", which takes i_mutex *before* possibly taking
mm->mmap_sem (due to a page fault while copying the directory entry to
user space).
In contrast, regular inodes can be mmap'ed, which takes mm->mmap_sem
before accessing i_mutex.
The two cases can never happen for the same inode, so no real deadlock
can occur, but without the different lockdep classes, lockdep cannot
understand that. As a result, if CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is set, this
can lead to false positives from lockdep like below:
find/645 is trying to acquire lock:
(&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff81109514>] might_fault+0x5c/0xac
but task is already holding lock:
(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#15){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81149f34>]
vfs_readdir+0x5b/0xb4
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
-> #1 (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#15){+.+.+.}:
[<ffffffff8108ac26>] lock_acquire+0xbf/0x103

This patch moves the directory vs file lockdep annotation into a helper
function that can be called by in-memory filesystems and has hugetlbfs
call it.
