With the FLEX_BG layout, there is no reason why extents can't cross

The extents codepath for ext4_truncate() requests journal transaction
credits in very small chunks, requesting only what is needed. This
means there may not be enough credits left on the transaction handle
after ext4_truncate() returns and then when ext4_delete_inode() tries
finish up its work, it may not have enough transaction credits,
causing a BUG() oops in the jbd2 core.
Also, reserve an extra 2 blocks when starting an ext4_delete_inode()
since we need to update the inode bitmap, as well as update the
orphaned inode linked list.

The ext4_ext_journal_restart() is a convenience function which checks
to see if the requested number of credits is present, and if so it
closes the current transaction and attaches the current handle to the
new transaction. Unfortunately, it wasn't proprely checking the
return value from ext4_journal_extend(), so it was starting a new
transaction when one was not necessary, and returning an error when
all that was necessary was to restart the handle with a new
transaction.

In ordered mode, the current jbd2 aborts the journal if a file data buffer
has an error. But this behavior is unintended, and we found that it has
been adopted accidentally.
This patch undoes it and just calls printk() instead of aborting the
journal. Unlike a similar patch for ext3/jbd, file data buffers are
written via generic_writepages(). But we also need to set AS_EIO
into their mappings because wait_on_page_writeback_range() clears
AS_EIO before a user process sees it.

A transient I/O error can corrupt inode data. Here is the scenario:
(1) update inode_A at the block_B
(2) pdflush writes out new inode_A to the filesystem, but it results
in write I/O error, at this point, BH_Uptodate flag of the buffer
for block_B is cleared and BH_Write_EIO is set
(3) create new inode_C which located at block_B, and
__ext4_get_inode_loc() tries to read on-disk block_B because the
buffer is not uptodate
(4) if it can read on-disk block_B successfully, inode_A is
overwritten by old data
This patch makes __ext4_get_inode_loc() not read the inode block if the
buffer has BH_Write_EIO flag. In this case, the buffer should have the
latest information, so setting the uptodate flag to the buffer (this
avoids WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_buffer_dirty().)
According to this change, we would need to test BH_Write_EIO flag for the
error checking. Currently nobody checks write I/O errors on metadata
buffers, but it will be done in other patches I'm working on.

Currently, the locality group prealloc list is freed only when there
is a block allocation failure. This can result in large number of
entries in the preallocation list making ext4_mb_use_preallocated()
expensive.
To fix this, we convert the locality group prealloc list to a hash
list. The hash index is the order of number of blocks in the prealloc
space with a max order of 9. When adding prealloc space to the list we
make sure total entries for each order does not exceed 8. If it is
more than 8 we discard few entries and make sure the we have only <= 5
entries.

fs_mark -d /mnt/test -D 256 -n 100000 -t 4 -s 20480 -F -S 0
that I occasionally got checksum mismatch errors:

It appears that the problem is likely a race to init the bg's

ext4_read_block_bitmap and read_inode_bitmap do essentially
the same thing, and yet they are structured quite differently.
I came across this difference while looking at doing bg locking
during bg initialization.
This patch:
* removes unnecessary casts in the error messages
* renames read_inode_bitmap to ext4_read_inode_bitmap
* and more substantially, restructures the inode bitmap
reading function to be more like the block bitmap counterpart.
The change to the inode bitmap reader simplifies the locking
to be applied in the next patch.

Inserting an extent can cause a new entry in the already existing index
block. That doesn't increase the depth of the instead. Instead it adds a
new leaf block. Now with the new leaf block the path information
corresponding to the logical block should be fetched from the new block.
The old path will be pointing to the old leaf block.
We need to recalucate the path information on extent insert
even if depth doesn't change. Without this change, the extent merge
after converting an unwritten extent to initialized extent takes the wrong
extent and cause data corruption.

With SLUB debugging turned on in 2.6.26, I was getting memory corruption
when testing eCryptfs. The root cause turned out to be that eCryptfs was
doing kmalloc(PAGE_CACHE_SIZE); virt_to_page() and treating that as a nice
page-aligned chunk of memory. But at least with SLUB debugging on, this
is not always true, and the page we get from virt_to_page does not
necessarily match the PAGE_CACHE_SIZE worth of memory we got from kmalloc.
My simple testcase was 2 loops doing "rm -f fileX; cp /tmp/fileX ." for 2
different multi-megabyte files. With this change I no longer see the
corruption.

When we read some part of a file through pagecache, if there is a
pagecache of corresponding index but this page is not uptodate, read IO
is issued and this page will be uptodate.
I think this is good for pagesize == blocksize environment but there is
room for improvement on pagesize != blocksize environment. Because in
this case a page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not
uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate.
So I suggest that when all buffers which correspond to a part of a file
that we want to read are uptodate, use this pagecache and copy data from
this pagecache to user buffer even if a page is not uptodate. This can
reduce read IO and improve system throughput.
I wrote a benchmark program and got result number with this program.
This benchmark do:
1: mount and open a test file.
2: create a 512MB file.
3: close a file and umount.
4: mount and again open a test file.
5: pwrite randomly 300000 times on a test file. offset is aligned
by IO size(1024bytes).
6: measure time of preading randomly 100000 times on a test file.
The result was:
2.6.26
330 sec
2.6.26-patched
226 sec
Arch:i386
Filesystem:ext3
Blocksize:1024 bytes
Memory: 1GB
On ext3/4, a file is written through buffer/block. So random read/write
mixed workloads or random read after random write workloads are optimized
with this patch under pagesize != blocksize environment. This test result
showed this.
The benchmark program is as follows:

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

While implementing binfmt_elf_fdpic on SH it quickly became apparent
that SH was the first platform to support both binfmt_elf_fdpic and
binfmt_elf, as well as the only of the FDPIC platforms to make use of the
auxvt.
Currently binfmt_elf_fdpic uses a special version of NEW_AUX_ENT() where
the first argument is the entry displacement after csp has been adjusted,
being reset after each adjustment. As we have no ability to sort this out
through the platform's ARCH_DLINFO, this index needs to be managed
entirely in create_elf_fdpic_tables(). Presently none of the platforms
that set their own auxvt entries are able to do so through their
respective ARCH_DLINFOs when using binfmt_elf_fdpic.
In addition to this, binfmt_elf_fdpic has been looking at
DLINFO_ARCH_ITEMS for the number of architecture-specific entries in the
auxvt. This is legacy cruft, and is not defined by any platforms in-tree,
even those that make heavy use of the auxvt. AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH is
always available, and contains the number that is of interest here, so we
switch to using that unconditionally as well.
As this has direct bearing on how much stack is used, platforms that have
configurable (or dynamically adjustable) NEW_AUX_ENT calls need to either
make AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH more fine-grained, or leave it as a worst-case
and live with some lost stack space if those entries aren't pushed (some
platforms may also need to purposely sacrifice some space here for
alignment considerations, as noted in the code -- although not an issue
for any FDPIC-capable platform today).

Al Viro notice one cornercase that the new dup3() code. The dup2()
function, as a special case, handles dup-ing to the same file
descriptor. In this case the current dup3() code does nothing at
all. I.e., it ingnores the flags parameter. This shouldn't happen,
the close-on-exec flag should be set if requested.
In case the O_CLOEXEC bit in the flags parameter is not set the
dup3() function should behave in this respect identical to dup2().
This means dup3(fd, fd, 0) should not actively reset the c-o-e
flag.
The patch below implements this minor change.

always performed by the VFS and not by the filesystem (see

notify_change(), and not in inode_change_ok().

The FAT_IOCTL_SET_ATTRIBUTES ioctl() calls notify_change() to change
the file mode before changing the inode attributes. Replace with
explicit calls to security_inode_setattr(), fat_setattr() and
fsnotify_change().
This is equivalent to the original. The reason it is needed, is that
later in the series we move the immutable check into notify_change().
That would break the FAT_IOCTL_SET_ATTRIBUTES ioctl, as it needs to
perform the mode change regardless of the immutability of the file.
