It was a nice optimization - on paper at least. In practice it results in
branches that may exceed the maximum legal range for a branch. We can
fight that problem with -ffunction-sections but -ffunction-sections again
is incompatible with -pg used by the function tracer.
By rewriting the loop around all simple LL/SC blocks to C we reduce the
amount of inline assembler and at the same time allow GCC to often fill
the branch delay slots with something sensible or whatever else clever
optimization it may have up in its sleeve.
With this optimization gone we also no longer need -ffunction-sections,
so drop it.
This optimization was originally introduced in 2.6.21, commit
5999eca25c1fd4b9b9aca7833b04d10fe4bc877d (linux-mips.org) rsp.
f65e4fa8e0c6022ad58dc88d1b11b12589ed7f9f (kernel.org).
Original fix for the issues which caused me to pull this optimization by
Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>.

We used to protect against overflow, but rather than return an error, do
what read/write does, namely to limit the total size to MAX_RW_COUNT.
This is not only more consistent, but it also means that any broken
low-level read/write routine that still keeps counts in 'int' can't
break.

Kprobes and jump label were having a race between mutexes that
was fixed by reordering the jump label. But this reordering
moved the jump label mutex into a preempt disable location.
This patch does a little fiddling to move the grabbing of
the jump label mutex from inside the preempt disable section
and still keep the order correct between the mutex and the
kprobes lock.

This patch adds a new mount parameter 'ecryptfs_mount_auth_tok_only' to
force ecryptfs to use only authentication tokens which signature has
been specified at mount time with parameters 'ecryptfs_sig' and
'ecryptfs_fnek_sig'. In this way, after disabling the passthrough and
the encrypted view modes, it's possible to make available to users only
files encrypted with the specified authentication token.

eCryptfs was passing the LOOKUP_OPEN flag through to the lower file
system, even though ecryptfs_create() doesn't support the flag. A valid
filp for the lower filesystem could be returned in the nameidata if the
lower file system's create() function supported LOOKUP_OPEN, possibly
resulting in unencrypted writes to the lower file.
However, this is only a potential problem in filesystems (FUSE, NFS,
CIFS, CEPH, 9p) that eCryptfs isn't known to support today.

Ecryptfs is a stackable filesystem which relies on lower filesystems the
ability of setting/getting extended attributes.
If there is a security module enabled on the system it updates the
'security' field of inodes according to the owned extended attribute set
with the function vfs_setxattr(). When this function is performed on a
ecryptfs filesystem the 'security' field is not updated for the lower
filesystem since the call security_inode_post_setxattr() is missing for
the lower inode.
Further, the call security_inode_setxattr() is missing for the lower inode,
leading to policy violations in the security module because specific
checks for this hook are not performed (i. e. filesystem
'associate' permission on SELinux is not checked for the lower filesystem).
This patch replaces the call of the setxattr() method of the lower inode
in the function ecryptfs_setxattr() with vfs_setxattr().

When btrfs is mounted in degraded mode, it has some internal structures
to track the missing devices. This missing device is setup as readonly,
but the mapping code can get upset when we try to write to it.
This changes the mapping code to return -EIO instead of oops when we try
to write to the readonly device.

We have a fairly complex set of loops around walking our list of
delalloc inodes when we find metadata delalloc space running low.
It doesn't work very well, can use large amounts of CPU and doesn't
do very efficient writeback.
This switches us to kick the bdi flusher threads instead. All dirty
data in btrfs is accounted as delalloc data, so this is very similar
in terms of what it writes, but we're able to just kick off the IO
and wait for progress.

An earlier commit tried to keep us from allocating too many
empty metadata chunks. It was somewhat too restrictive and could
lead to ENOSPC errors on empty filesystems.
This increases the limits to about 5% of the FS size, allowing more
metadata chunks to be preallocated.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
|

When btrfs is running low on metadata space, it needs to force delayed
allocation pages to disk. It currently does this with a suboptimal walk
of a private list of inodes with delayed allocation, and it would be
much better if we used the generic flusher threads.
writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle would be ideal, but it waits for the flusher
thread to start IO on all the dirty pages in the FS before it returns.
This adds variants of writeback_inodes_sb* that allow the caller to
control how many pages get sent down.

If something goes wrong with the free space cache we need a way to make sure

There are just a few things that need to be fixed in the kernel to support mixed
data+metadata block groups. Mostly we just need to make sure that if we are
using mixed block groups that we continue to allocate mixed block groups as we
need them. Also we need to make sure __find_space_info will find our space info
if we search for DATA or METADATA only. Tested this with xfstests and it works
nicely. Thanks,

With the free space disk caching we can mark the block group as started with the
caching, but we don't have a caching ctl. This can race with anybody else who
tries to get the caching ctl before we cache (this is very hard to do btw). So
instead check to see if cache->caching_ctl is set, and if not return NULL.

This patch actually loads the free space cache if it exists. The only thing
that really changes here is that we need to cache the block group if we're going
to remove an extent from it. Previously we did not do this since the caching
kthread would pick it up. With the on disk cache we don't have this luxury so
we need to make sure we read the on disk cache in first, and then remove the
extent, that way when the extent is unpinned the free space is added to the
block group. This has been tested with all sorts of things.

This is a simple bit, just dump the free space cache out to our preallocated
inode when we're writing out dirty block groups. There are a bunch of changes
in inode.c in order to account for special cases. Mostly when we're doing the
writeout we're holding trans_mutex, so we need to use the nolock transacation
functions. Also we can't do asynchronous completions since the async thread
could be blocked on already completed IO waiting for the transaction lock. This
has been tested with xfstests and btrfs filesystem balance, as well as my ENOSPC
tests. Thanks,
