* xfs: don't allocate an ioend for direct I/O completionsChristoph Hellwig2015-02-021-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Back in the days when the direct I/O ->end_io callback could be called from interrupt context for AIO we needed a structure to hand off to the workqueue, and reused the ioend structure for this purpose. These days ->end_io is always called from user or workqueue context, which allows us to avoid this memory allocation and simplify the code significantly. [dchinner: removed now unused xfs_finish_ioend_sync() function after Brian Foster did an initial review. ] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>
* direct-io: Implement generic deferred AIO completionsChristoph Hellwig2013-09-041-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user context using a workqueue. This replaces opencoded and less efficient code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO) and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO. The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating with the filesystems. Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara. I'm not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion. JK: Fixed ext4 part, dynamic allocation of the workqueue. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* Prefix IO_XX flags with XFS_IO_XX to avoid namespace colision.Alain Renaud2012-07-221-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | Add a XFS_ prefix to IO_DIRECT,XFS_IO_DELALLOC, XFS_IO_UNWRITTEN and XFS_IO_OVERWRITE. This to avoid namespace conflict with other modules. Signed-off-by: Alain Renaud <arenaud@sgi.com> Reviewed-by: Rich Johnston <rjohnston@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Myers <bpm@sgi.com>
* xfs: log file size updates at I/O completion timeChristoph Hellwig2012-03-131-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Do not use unlogged metadata updates and the VFS dirty bit for updating the file size after writeback. In addition to causing various problems with updates getting delayed for far too long this also drags in the unscalable VFS dirty tracking, and is one of the few remaining unlogged metadata updates.

* xfs: use per-filesystem I/O completion workqueuesChristoph Hellwig2012-03-051-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new concurrency managed workqueues are cheap enough that we can create per-filesystem instead of global workqueues. This allows us to remove the trylock or defer scheme on the ilock, which is not helpful once we have outstanding log reservations until finishing a size update. Also allow the default concurrency on this workqueues so that I/O completions blocking on the ilock for one inode do not block process for another inode.

* xfs: remove i_iocountChristoph Hellwig2011-10-111-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We now have an i_dio_count filed and surrounding infrastructure to wait for direct I/O completion instead of i_icount, and we have never needed to iocount waits for buffered I/O given that we only set the page uptodate after finishing all required work. Thus remove i_iocount, and replace the actually needed waits with calls to inode_dio_wait.

* xfs: defer AIO/DIO completionsChristoph Hellwig2011-10-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We really shouldn't complete AIO or DIO requests until we have finished the unwritten extent conversion and size update. This means fsync never has to pick up any ioends as all work has been completed when signalling I/O completion.

* xfs: remove subdirectoriesChristoph Hellwig2011-08-121-0/+68
Use the move from Linux 2.6 to Linux 3.x as an excuse to kill the annoying subdirectories in the XFS source code. Besides the large amount of file rename the only changes are to the Makefile, a few files including headers with the subdirectory prefix, and the binary sysctl compat code that includes a header under fs/xfs/ from kernel/.
