  • 1c0b8a7a6   hpfs: optimize quad buffer loading ... Browse Code »

    HPFS needs to load 4 consecutive 512-byte sectors when accessing the
    directory nodes or bitmaps. We can't switch to 2048-byte block size
    because files are allocated in the units of 512-byte sectors.

    Previously, the driver would allocate a 2048-byte area using kmalloc,
    copy the data from four buffers to this area and eventually copy them
    back if they were modified.

    In the current implementation of the buffer cache, buffers are allocated
    in the pagecache. That means that 4 consecutive 512-byte buffers are
    stored in consecutive areas in the kernel address space. So, we don't
    need to allocate extra memory and copy the content of the buffers there.

    This patch optimizes the code to avoid copying the buffers. It checks
    if the four buffers are stored in contiguous memory - if they are not,
    it falls back to allocating a 2048-byte area and copying data there.

  • 2cbe5c76f   hpfs: remember free space ... Browse Code »

    Previously, hpfs scanned all bitmaps each time the user asked for free
    space using statfs. This patch changes it so that hpfs scans the
    bitmaps only once, remembes the free space and on next invocation of
    statfs it returns the value instantly.

    New versions of wine are hammering on the statfs syscall very heavily,
    making some games unplayable when they're stored on hpfs, with load
    times in minutes.

    This should be backported to the stable kernels because it fixes
    user-visible problem (excessive level load times in wine).

  • da53be12b   Don't pass inode to ->d_hash() and ->d_compare() ... Browse Code »

    Instances either don't look at it at all (the majority of cases) or
    only want it to find the superblock (which can be had as dentry->d_sb).
    A few cases that want more are actually safe with dentry->d_inode -
    the only precaution needed is the check that it hadn't been replaced with
    NULL by rmdir() or by overwriting rename(), which case should be simply
    treated as cache miss.

  • 31abdab9c   hpfs: deadlock and race in directory lseek() ... Browse Code »

    For one thing, there's an ABBA deadlock on hpfs fs-wide lock and i_mutex
    in hpfs_dir_lseek() - there's a lot of methods that grab the former with
    the caller already holding the latter, so it must take i_mutex first.

    For another, locking the damn thing, carefully validating the offset,
    then dropping locks and assigning the offset is obviously racy.

    Moreover, we _must_ do hpfs_add_pos(), or the machinery in dnode.c
    won't modify the sucker on B-tree surgeries.

    Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
    "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
    locking violations, etc.

    The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with

    to inode. Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

    Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
    several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

    Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

    - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
    that is moved to fs/file.c

    (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c. As it is,
    we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
    file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
    are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
    struct file we used to have way back).

    A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
    disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
    doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore. A bunch of
    relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
    leak.

    - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
    there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).

    - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
    that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
    switch of fdinfo to seq_file.

    - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
    take that commit than mess with conflicts. The rest is a separate
    pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.

    - a few misc patches all over the place. Not all for this cycle,
    there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

    Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
    simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
    interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
    vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
    /proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)

  • 8c0a85377   fs: push rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() to filesystems ... Browse Code »

    There's no reason to call rcu_barrier() on every
    deactivate_locked_super(). We only need to make sure that all delayed rcu
    free inodes are flushed before we destroy related cache.

    Removing rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() affects some fast
    paths. E.g. on my machine exit_group() of a last process in IPC
    namespace takes 0.07538s. rcu_barrier() takes 0.05188s of that time.

    boolean "does it have to be exclusive?" flag is passed instead;

    Just the flags; only NFS cares even about that, but there are
    legitimate uses for such argument. And getting rid of that
    completely would require splitting ->lookup() into a couple
    of methods (at least), so let's leave that alone for now...

    "A lot of misc stuff. The obvious groups:

    general.
    * ->encode_fh() switched to saner API; insane fake dentry in
    mm/cleancache.c gone.
    * assorted annotations in fs (endianness, __user)

    * ->update_time() work from Josef.
