2009-02-12Btrfs: Avoid using __GFP_HIGHMEM with slab allocatorYan Zheng

2009-02-12Btrfs: don't clean old snapshots on sync(1)Chris Mason
Cleaning old snapshots can make sync(1) somewhat slow, and some users and applications still use it in a global fsync kind of workload. This patch changes btrfs not to clean old snapshots during sync, which is safe from a FS consistency point of view. The major downside is that it makes it difficult to tell when old snapshots have been reaped and the space they were using has been reclaimed. A new ioctl will be added for this purpose instead.

2009-02-12Btrfs: use larger metadata clusters in ssd modeChris Mason
Larger metadata clusters can significantly improve writeback performance on ssd drives with large erasure blocks. The larger clusters make it more likely a given IO will completely overwrite the ssd block, so it doesn't have to do an internal rwm cycle. On spinning media, lager metadata clusters end up spreading out the metadata more over time, which makes fsck slower, so we don't want this to be the default.

2009-02-12Btrfs: make sure all pending extent operations are completeJosef Bacik
Theres a slight problem with finish_current_insert, if we set all to 1 and then go through and don't actually skip any of the extents on the pending list, we could exit right after we've added new extents. This is a problem because by inserting the new extents we could have gotten new COW's to happen and such, so we may have some pending updates to do or even more inserts to do after that. So this patch will only exit if we have never skipped any of the extents in the pending list, and we have no extents to insert, this will make sure that all of the pending work is truly done before we return. I've been running with this patch for a few days with all of my other testing and have not seen issues. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com>

Impact: fix race leading to crash under KVM and Xen The CPA code may be called while we're in lazy mmu update mode - for example, when using DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC and doing a slab allocation in an interrupt handler which interrupted a lazy mmu update. In this case, the in-memory pagetable state may be out of date due to pending queued updates. We need to flush any pending updates before inspecting the page table. Similarly, we must explicitly flush any modifications CPA may have made (which comes down to flushing queued operations when flushing the TLB).

2009-02-11nbd: fix I/O hang on disconnected nbdsPaul Clements
Fix a problem that causes I/O to a disconnected (or partially initialized) nbd device to hang indefinitely. To reproduce: # ioctl NBD_SET_SIZE_BLOCKS /dev/nbd23 514048 # dd if=/dev/nbd23 of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=1 ...hangs... This can also occur when an nbd device loses its nbd-client/server connection. Although we clear the queue of any outstanding I/Os after the client/server connection fails, any additional I/Os that get queued later will hang. This bug may also be the problem reported in this bug report: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12277 Testing would need to be performed to determine if the two issues are the same. This problem was introduced by the new request handling thread code ("NBD: allow nbd to be used locally", 3/2008), which entered into mainline around 2.6.25. The fix, which is fairly simple, is to restore the check for lo->sock being NULL in do_nbd_request. This causes I/O to an uninitialized nbd to immediately fail with an I/O error, as it did prior to the introduction of this bug.

2009-02-11mm: rearrange exit_mmap() to unlock before arch_exit_mmapJeremy Fitzhardinge
Christophe Saout reported [in precursor to: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123209902707347&w=4]: > Note that I also some a different issue with CONFIG_UNEVICTABLE_LRU. > Seems like Xen tears down current->mm early on process termination, so > that __get_user_pages in exit_mmap causes nasty messages when the > process had any mlocked pages. (in fact, it somehow manages to get into > the swapping code and produces a null pointer dereference trying to get > a swap token) Jeremy explained: Yes. In the normal case under Xen, an in-use pagetable is "pinned", meaning that it is RO to the kernel, and all updates must go via hypercall (or writes are trapped and emulated, which is much the same thing). An unpinned pagetable is not currently in use by any process, and can be directly accessed as normal RW pages. As an optimisation at process exit time, we unpin the pagetable as early as possible (switching the process to init_mm), so that all the normal pagetable teardown can happen with direct memory accesses. This happens in exit_mmap() -> arch_exit_mmap(). The munlocking happens a few lines below. The obvious thing to do would be to move arch_exit_mmap() to below the munlock code, but I think we'd want to call it even if mm->mmap is NULL, just to be on the safe side. Thus, this patch: exit_mmap() needs to unlock any locked vmas before calling arch_exit_mmap, as the latter may switch the current mm to init_mm, which would cause the former to fail.

2009-02-11syscall define: fix uml compile bugHeiko Carstens
With the new system call defines we get this on uml: arch/um/sys-i386/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table': (.rodata+0x308): undefined reference to `sys_sigprocmask' Reason for this is that uml passes the preprocessor option -Dsigprocmask=kernel_sigprocmask to gcc when compiling the kernel. This causes SYSCALL_DEFINE3(sigprocmask, ...) to be expanded to SYSCALL_DEFINEx(3, kernel_sigprocmask, ...) and finally to a system call named sys_kernel_sigprocmask. However sys_sigprocmask is missing because of this. To avoid macro expansion for the system call name just concatenate the name at first define instead of carrying it through severel levels.

2009-02-11ext2/xip: refuse to change xip flag during remount with busy inodesCarsten Otte
For a reason that I was unable to understand in three months of debugging, mount ext2 -o remount stopped working properly when remounting from regular operation to xip, or the other way around. According to a git bisect search, the problem was introduced with the VM_MIXEDMAP/PTE_SPECIAL rework in the vm: commit 70688e4dd1647f0ceb502bbd5964fa344c5eb411 Author: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Date: Mon Apr 28 02:13:02 2008 -0700 xip: support non-struct page backed memory In the failing scenario, the filesystem is mounted read only via root= kernel parameter on s390x. During remount (in rc.sysinit), the inodes of the bash binary and its libraries are busy and cannot be invalidated (the bash which is running rc.sysinit resides on subject filesystem). Afterwards, another bash process (running ifup-eth) recurses into a subshell, runs dup_mm (via fork). Some of the mappings in this bash process were created from inodes that could not be invalidated during remount. Both parent and child process crash some time later due to inconsistencies in their address spaces. The issue seems to be timing sensitive, various attempts to recreate it have failed. This patch refuses to change the xip flag during remount in case some inodes cannot be invalidated. This patch keeps users from running into that issue.

2009-02-11mm: fix mlocked page counter mismatchMinChan Kim
When I tested following program, I found that the mlocked counter is strange. It cannot free some mlocked pages. It is because try_to_unmap_file() doesn't check real page mappings in vmas. That is because the goal of an address_space for a file is to find all processes into which the file's specific interval is mapped. It is related to the file's interval, not to pages. Even if the page isn't really mapped by the vma, it returns SWAP_MLOCK since the vma has VM_LOCKED, then calls try_to_mlock_page. After this the mlocked counter is increased again. COWed anon page in a file-backed vma could be a such case. This patch resolves it. -- my test program -- int main() { mlockall(MCL_CURRENT); return 0; } -- before -- root@barrios-target-linux:~# cat /proc/meminfo | egrep 'Mlo|Unev' Unevictable: 0 kB Mlocked: 0 kB -- after -- root@barrios-target-linux:~# cat /proc/meminfo | egrep 'Mlo|Unev' Unevictable: 8 kB Mlocked: 8 kB Signed-off-by: MinChan Kim <minchan.kim@gmail.com> Acked-by: Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com> Acked-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Tested-by: Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
