The garbage collection thread is strictly an optimisation. Everything it
does would also be done just-in-time in the context of something in
userspace trying to access the file system.Sometimes, however, it's a pessimisation. Especially during early boot
when it's checksumming nodes and scanning inodes which are shortly going
to be pulled in by read_inode anyway. We end up building the rbtree of
node coverage twice for the same inode.By switching to yield() instead of cond_resched() in the main loop, we
observe boot times on the OLPC system going down from about 100 seconds to
60.Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse

For the case when nand_write_page fail with -EIO for the first page in an
eraseblock, jffs2_wbuf_recover ends up producing a BUG in jffs2_block_refile
as jeb->first_node is not yet set up (it's set up later in jffs2_wbuf_recover).
This BUG is not really a bug; it's just jffs2_wbuf_recover calling
jffs2_block_refile with the wrong second parameter.
This patch takes care of this situation.Signed-off-by: Vitaly Wool

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).Signed-off-by: Tim Schmielau

Many struct inode_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven

Nowadays MTD supports an MTD_OOB_AUTO option which allows users
to access free bytes in NAND's OOB as a contiguous buffer, although
it may be highly discontinuous.This patch teaches JFFS2 to use this nice feature instead of the
old MTD_OOB_PLACE option. This for example caused problems with
OneNAND. Now JFFS2 does not care how are the free bytes situated.This may change position of the clean marker on some flashes,
but this is not a problem. JFFS2 will just re-erase the empty
eraseblocks and write the new (correct) clean marker.Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
#set -e

get_mtd_device() returns NULL in case of any failure. Teach it to return an
error code instead. Fix all users as well.Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy
-
As was discussed between Ricard Wanderlöf, David Woodhouse, Artem
Bityutskiy and me, the current API for reading/writing OOB is confusing.The thing that introduces confusion is the need to specify ops.len
together with ops.ooblen for reads/writes that concern only OOB not data
area. So, ops.len is overloaded: when ops.datbuf != NULL it serves to
specify the length of the data read, and when ops.datbuf == NULL, it
serves to specify the full OOB read length.The patch inlined below is the slightly updated version of the previous
patch serving the same purpose, but with the new Artem's comments taken
into account.Artem, BTW, thanks a lot for your valuable input!

When a filesystem decrements i_nlink to zero, it means that a write must be
performed in order to drop the inode from the filesystem.We're shortly going to have keep filesystems from being remounted r/o between
the time that this i_nlink decrement and that write occurs.So, add a little helper function to do the decrements. We'll tie into it in a
bit to note when i_nlink hits zero.Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen

This patch cleans up generic_file_*_read/write() interfaces. Christoph
Hellwig gave me the idea for this clean ups.In a nutshell, all filesystems should set .aio_read/.aio_write methods and use
do_sync_read/ do_sync_write() as their .read/.write methods. This allows us
to cleanup all variants of generic_file_* routines.Final available interfaces:
generic_file_aio_read() - read handler
generic_file_aio_write() - write handler
generic_file_aio_write_nolock() - no lock write handler__generic_file_aio_write_nolock() - internal worker routine

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.[bunk@stusta.de: cleanup]
