* xfs: more sensible inode refcounting for iallocChristoph Hellwig2011-02-221-22/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we return iodes from xfs_ialloc with just a single reference held. But we need two references, as one is dropped during transaction commit and the second needs to be transfered to the VFS. Change xfs_ialloc to use xfs_iget plus xfs_trans_ijoin_ref to grab two references to the inode, and remove the now superflous IHOLD calls from all callers. This also greatly simplifies the error handling in xfs_create and also allow to remove xfs_trans_iget as no other callers are left.

* xfs: don't use vfs writeback for pure metadata modificationsDave Chinner2010-10-181-0/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Under heavy multi-way parallel create workloads, the VFS struggles to write back all the inodes that have been changed in age order. The bdi flusher thread becomes CPU bound, spending 85% of it's time in the VFS code, mostly traversing the superblock dirty inode list to separate dirty inodes old enough to flush. We already keep an index of all metadata changes in age order - in the AIL - and continued log pressure will do age ordered writeback without any extra overhead at all. If there is no pressure on the log, the xfssyncd will periodically write back metadata in ascending disk address offset order so will be very efficient. Hence we can stop marking VFS inodes dirty during transaction commit or when changing timestamps during transactions. This will keep the inodes in the superblock dirty list to those containing data or unlogged metadata changes. However, the timstamp changes are slightly more complex than this - there are a couple of places that do unlogged updates of the timestamps, and the VFS need to be informed of these. Hence add a new function xfs_trans_ichgtime() for transactional changes, and leave xfs_ichgtime() for the non-transactional changes.

* xfs: simplify inode to transaction joiningChristoph Hellwig2010-07-261-36/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we need to either call IHOLD or xfs_trans_ihold on an inode when joining it to a transaction via xfs_trans_ijoin. This patches instead makes xfs_trans_ijoin usable on it's own by doing an implicity xfs_trans_ihold, which also allows us to drop the third argument. For the case where we want to hold a reference on the inode a xfs_trans_ijoin_ref wrapper is added which does the IHOLD and marks the inode for needing an xfs_iput. In addition to the cleaner interface to the caller this also simplifies the implementation. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>
* xfs: simplify log item descriptor trackingChristoph Hellwig2010-07-261-7/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we track log item descriptor belonging to a transaction using a complex opencoded chunk allocator. This code has been there since day one and seems to work around the lack of an efficient slab allocator. This patch replaces it with dynamically allocated log item descriptors from a dedicated slab pool, linked to the transaction by a linked list. This allows to greatly simplify the log item descriptor tracking to the point where it's just a couple hundred lines in xfs_trans.c instead of a separate file. The external API has also been simplified while we're at it - the xfs_trans_add_item and xfs_trans_del_item functions to add/ delete items from a transaction have been simplified to the bare minium, and the xfs_trans_find_item function is replaced with a direct dereference of the li_desc field. All debug code walking the list of log items in a transaction is down to a simple list_for_each_entry. Note that we could easily use a singly linked list here instead of the double linked list from list.h as the fastpath only does deletion from sequential traversal. But given that we don't have one available as a library function yet I use the list.h functions for simplicity.

* xfs: drop dmapi hooksChristoph Hellwig2010-07-261-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dmapi support was never merged upstream, but we still have a lot of hooks bloating XFS for it, all over the fast pathes of the filesystem. This patch drops over 700 lines of dmapi overhead. If we'll ever get HSM support in mainline at least the namespace events can be done much saner in the VFS instead of the individual filesystem, so it's not like this is much help for future work.

* xfs: simplify xfs_trans_igetChristoph Hellwig2009-09-011-81/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xfs_trans_iget is a wrapper for xfs_iget that adds the inode to the transaction after it is read. Except when the inode already is in the inode cache, in which case it returns the existing locked inode with increment lock recursion counts. Now, no one in the tree every decrements these lock recursion counts, so any user of this gets a potential double unlock when both the original owner of the inode and the xfs_trans_iget caller unlock it. When looking back in a git bisect in the historic XFS tree there was only one place that decremented these counts, xfs_trans_iput. Introduced in commit ca25df7a840f426eb566d52667b6950b92bb84b5 by Adam Sweeney in 1993, and removed in commit 19f899a3ab155ff6a49c0c79b06f2f61059afaf3 by Steve Lord in 2003. And as long as it didn't slip through git bisects cracks never actually used in that time frame. A quick audit of the callers of xfs_trans_iget shows that no caller really relies on this behaviour fortunately - xfs_ialloc allows this inode from disk so it must not be there before, and all the RT allocator routines only every add each RT bitmap inode once. In addition to removing lots of code and reducing the size of the inode item this patch also avoids the double inode cache lookup in each create/mkdir/mknod transaction.

While we're at i also clean up the interface for is locked asserts to go through and xfs_iget.c helper with an interface like the xfs_ilock routines to isolated the XFS codebase from mrlock internals. That way we can kill mrlock_t entirely once rw_semaphores grow an islocked facility. Also remove unused flags to the ilock family of functions.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+342
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
