  • bd238fb43   9p: Reorganization of 9p file system code ... Browse Code »

    This patchset moves non-filesystem interfaces of v9fs from fs/9p to net/9p.
    It moves the transport, packet marshalling and connection layers to net/9p
    leaving only the VFS related files in fs/9p. This work is being done in
    preparation for in-kernel 9p servers as well as alternate 9p clients (other
    than VFS).

  • 4b6f5d20b   [PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ const ... Browse Code »

    This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
    const. Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

    The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
    shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
    things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
    cache clean)

  • 28fd12982   [PATCH] Fix and add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) ... Browse Code »

    This patch add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) and use it.

    See mm/filemap.c:

    And changes the filemap_write_and_wait() and filemap_write_and_wait_range().

    Current filemap_write_and_wait() doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite()
    returns error. However, even if filemap_fdatawrite() returned an
    error, it may have submitted the partially data pages to the device.
    (e.g. in the case of -ENOSPC)

    Andrew Morton writes,

    If filemap_fdatawrite() returns an error, this might be due to some
    I/O problem: dead disk, unplugged cable, etc. Given the generally
    crappy quality of the kernel's handling of such exceptions, there's a
    good chance that the filemap_fdatawait() will get stuck in D state
    forever.

    So, this patch doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns the -EIO.

    Trond, could you please review the nfs part? Especially I'm not sure,
    nfs must use the "filemap_fdatawrite(inode->i_mapping) == 0", or not.

  • 0b8dd1776   [PATCH] v9fs: fix races in fid allocation ... Browse Code »

    Fid management cleanup. The patch attempts to fix the races in dentry's
    fid management.

    Dentries don't keep the opened fids anymore, they are moved to the file
    structs. Ideally there should be no more than one fid with fidcreate equal
    to zero in the dentry's list of fids.

    v9fs_fid_create initializes the important fields (fid, fidcreated) before
    v9fs_fid is added to the list. v9fs_fid_lookup returns only fids that are
    not created by v9fs_create. v9fs_fid_get_created returns the fid created
    by the same process by v9fs_create (if any) and removes it from dentry's
    list
