    Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.

    The patch was generated using the following script:

    #!/bin/sh
    #
    # Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
    #

    set -e

    for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do

    mv /tmp/$$ $file
    quilt refresh
    done

    The script was run like this

    sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

  • ba52de123   [PATCH] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structure ... Browse Code »

    This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want
    to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr
    routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function.

    Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect)
    values for i_blksize.

  • 726c33422   [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to perform statfs with a known root dentry ... Browse Code »

    Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock
    pointer.

    This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of
    sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there. However, NFS does
    require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits
    the root in the vfsmount to be used instead.

    linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build
    successfully.

    Interest has also been expressed for use with the FUSE and XFS filesystems.

  • 454e2398b   [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mount ... Browse Code »

    Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
    permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.

    The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
    pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
    which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
    superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).

    The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
    superblock pointer.

    This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
    points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In
    such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
    and mnt_sb would be set directly.

    The patch also makes the following changes:

    (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
    pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
    very little.

    (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
    normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
    always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().

    (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
    dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().

    This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
    aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
    currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
    and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
    dentries being left unculled.

    However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
    implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
    simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
    inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
    with child trees.

    [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.

    (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
    changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

  • 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)

  • 4b6a9316f   [PATCH] cpuset memory spread: slab cache filesystems ... Browse Code »

    Mark file system inode and similar slab caches subject to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD
    memory spreading.

    If a slab cache is marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, then anytime that a task that's
    in a cpuset with the 'memory_spread_slab' option enabled goes to allocate
    from such a slab cache, the allocations are spread evenly over all the
    memory nodes (task->mems_allowed) allowed to that task, instead of favoring
    allocation on the node local to the current cpu.

    The following inode and similar caches are marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD:

    net/socket.c sock_inode_cache
    net/sunrpc/rpc_pipe.c rpc_inode_cache

    The choice of which slab caches to so mark was quite simple. I marked
    those already marked SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT, except for fs/xfs, dentry_cache,
    inode_cache, and buffer_head, which were marked in a previous patch. Even
    though SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT is for a different purpose, it marks the same
    potentially large file system i/o related slab caches as we need for memory
    spreading.

    Given that the rule now becomes "wherever you would have used a
    SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT slab cache flag before (usually the inode cache), use
    the SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag too", this should be easy enough to maintain.
    Future file system writers will just copy one of the existing file system
    slab cache setups and tend to get it right without thinking.

  • 9b04c997b   [PATCH] vfs: MS_VERBOSE should be MS_SILENT ... Browse Code »

    The meaning of MS_VERBOSE is backwards; if the bit is set, it really means,
    "don't be verbose". This is confusing and counter-intuitive.

    In addition, there is also no way to set the MS_VERBOSE flag in the
    mount(8) program in util-linux, but interesting, it does define options
    which would do the right thing if MS_SILENT were defined, which
    unfortunately we do not:

    #ifdef MS_SILENT
    { "quiet", 0, 0, MS_SILENT }, /* be quiet */
    { "loud", 0, 1, MS_SILENT }, /* print out messages. */
    #endif

    So the obvious fix is to deprecate the use of MS_VERBOSE and replace it
    with MS_SILENT.
