* fat (exportfs): fix dentry reconnectionSteven J. Magnani2012-10-066-137/+141
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintain an index of directory inodes by starting cluster, so that fat_get_parent() can return the proper cached inode rather than inventing one that cannot be traced back to the filesystem root. Add a new msdos/vfat binary mount option "nfs" so that FAT filesystems that are _not_ exported via NFS are not saddled with maintenance of an index they will never use. Finally, simplify NFS file handle generation and lookups. An ext2-congruent implementation is adequate for FAT needs. Signed-off-by: Steven J.

* fat (exportfs): move NFS support codeSteven J. Magnani2012-10-064-131/+174
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Under memory pressure, the system may evict dentries from cache. When the FAT driver receives a NFS request involving an evicted dentry, it is unable to reconnect it to the filesystem root. This causes the request to fail, often with ENOENT. This is partially due to ineffectiveness of the current FAT NFS implementation, and partially due to an unimplemented fh_to_parent method. The latter can cause file accesses to fail on shares exported with subtree_check. This patch set provides the FAT driver with the ability to reconnect dentries. NFS file handle generation and lookups are simplified and made congruent with ext2. Testing has involved a memory-starved virtual machine running 3.5-rc5 that exports a ~2 GB vfat filesystem containing a kernel tree (~770 MB, ~40000 files, 9 levels). Both 'cp -r' and 'ls -lR' operations were performed from a client, some overlapping, some consecutive. Exports with 'subtree_check' and 'no_subtree_check' have been tested. Note that while this patch set improves FAT's NFS support, it does not eliminate ESTALE errors completely. The following should be considered for NFS clients who are sensitive to ESTALE: * Mounting with lookupcache=none Unfortunately this can degrade performance severely, particularly for deep filesystems. * Incorporating VFS patches to retry ESTALE failures on the client-side, such as https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/29/381 * Handling ESTALE errors in client application code This patch: Move NFS-related code into its own C file.

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)."

| * fs: push rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() to filesystemsKirill A. Shutemov2012-10-021-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* | fat: switch to fsinfo_inodeArtem Bityutskiy2012-05-312-31/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently FAT file-system maps the VFS "superblock" abstraction to the FSINFO block. The FSINFO block contains non-essential data about the amount of free clusters and the next free cluster. FAT file-system can always find out this information by scanning the FAT table, but having it in the FSINFO block may speed things up sometimes. So FAT file-system relies on the VFS superblock write-out services to make sure the FSINFO block is written out to the media from time to time. The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every 5 seconds no matter what. So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super' VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread. This patch switches the FAT FSINFO block management from '->write_super()'/'->s_dirt' to 'fsinfo_inode'/'->write_inode'. Now, instead of setting the 's_dirt' flag, we just mark the special 'fsinfo_inode' inode as dirty and let VFS invoke the '->write_inode' call-back when needed, where we write-out the FSINFO block. This patch also makes sure we do not mark the 'fsinfo_inode' inode as dirty if we are not FAT32 (FAT16 and FAT12 do not have the FSINFO block) or if we are in R/O mode. As a bonus, we can also remove the '->sync_fs()' and '->write_super()' FAT call-back function because they become unneeded.

* | fat: mark superblock as dirty less oftenArtem Bityutskiy2012-05-311-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Preparation for further changes. It touches few functions in fatent.c and prevents them from marking the superblock as dirty unnecessarily often. Namely, instead of marking it as dirty in the internal tight loops - do it only once at the end of the functions. And instead of marking it as dirty while holding the FAT table lock, do it outside the lock. The reason for this patch is that marking the superblock as dirty will soon become a little bit heavier operation, so it is cleaner to do this only when it is necessary.

I'll add more code to this helper later, so I do not mark it as 'inline'.

* | fat: introduce special inode for managing the FSINFO blockArtem Bityutskiy2012-05-312-0/+13
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is patchset makes fatfs stop using the VFS '->write_super()' method for writing out the FSINFO block. The final goal is to get rid of the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread. This kernel thread wakes up every 5 seconds (by default) and calls '->write_super()' for all mounted file-systems. And the bad thing is that this is done even if all the superblocks are clean. Moreover, some file-systems do not even need this end they do not register the '->write_super()' method at all (e.g., btrfs). So 'sync_supers()' most often just generates useless wake-ups and wastes power. I am trying to make all file-systems independent of '->write_super()' and plan to remove 'sync_supers()' and '->write_super' completely once there are no more users. The '->write_supers()' method is mostly used by baroque file-systems like hfs, udf, etc. Modern file-systems like btrfs and xfs do not use it. This justifies removing this stuff from VFS completely and make every FS self-manage own superblock. Tested with xfstests. This patch: Preparation for further changes. It introduces a special inode ('fsinfo_inode') in FAT file-system which we'll later use for managing the FSINFO block. Note, this there is already one special inode ('fat_inode') which is used for managing the FAT tables. Introduce new 'MSDOS_FSINFO_INO' constant for this special inode. It is safe to do because FAT file-system does not store inode numbers on the media but generates them run-time. I've also cleaned up the comment to existing 'MSDOS_ROOT_INO' constant, while on it.

| * NLS: improve UTF8 -> UTF16 string conversion routineAlan Stern2011-11-181-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The utf8s_to_utf16s conversion routine needs to be improved. Unlike its utf16s_to_utf8s sibling, it doesn't accept arguments specifying the maximum length of the output buffer or the endianness of its 16-bit output. This patch (as1501) adds the two missing arguments, and adjusts the only two places in the kernel where the function is called. A follow-on patch will add a third caller that does utilize the new capabilities. The two conversion routines are still annoyingly inconsistent in the way they handle invalid byte combinations. But that's a subject for a different patch. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> CC: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
