isofs: work-around for Rock Ridge+Joliet CDs with empty ISO root directory

2010-10-28T01:03:08Z

If a CD has both Rock Ridge and Joliet extensions and the ISO root directory is empty, no files are visible. Disable Rock Ridge extensions in this case and use Joliet root directory instead.

isofs: Fix isofs_get_blocks for 8TB files

2010-10-26T01:18:20Z

Currently isofs_get_blocks() was limited to handle only 4TB files on 32-bit architectures because of unnecessary use of iblock variable which was signed long. Just remove the variable. The error messages that were using this variable should have rather used b_off anyway because that is the block we are currently mapping. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Al Viro

BKL: Remove BKL from isofs

2010-10-04T19:10:45Z

As in other file systems, we can replace the big kernel lock with a private mutex in isofs. This means we can now access multiple file systems concurrently, but it also means that we serialize readdir and lookup across sleeping operations which previously released the big kernel lock. This should not matter though, as these operations are in practice serialized through the hardware access. The isofs_get_blocks functions now does not take any lock any more, it used to recursively get the BKL. After looking at the code for hours, I convinced myself that it was never needed here anyway, because it only reads constant fields of the inode and writes to a buffer head array that is at this time only visible to the caller. The get_sb and fill_super operations do not need the locking at all because they operate on a file system that is either about to be created or to be destroyed but in either case is not visible to other threads.

BKL: Explicitly add BKL around get_sb/fill_super

2010-10-04T19:10:10Z

This patch is a preparation necessary to remove the BKL from do_new_mount(). It explicitly adds calls to lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() around get_sb/fill_super operations for filesystems that still uses the BKL. I've read through all the code formerly covered by the BKL inside do_kern_mount() and have satisfied myself that it doesn't need the BKL any more. do_kern_mount() is already called without the BKL when mounting the rootfs and in nfsctl. do_kern_mount() calls vfs_kern_mount(), which is called from various places without BKL: simple_pin_fs(), nfs_do_clone_mount() through nfs_follow_mountpoint(), afs_mntpt_do_automount() through afs_mntpt_follow_link(). Both later functions are actually the filesystems follow_link inode operation. vfs_kern_mount() is calling the specified get_sb function and lets the filesystem do its job by calling the given fill_super function. Therefore I think it is safe to push down the BKL from the VFS to the low-level filesystems get_sb/fill_super operation. [arnd: do not add the BKL to those file systems that already don't use it elsewhere] Signed-off-by: Jan Blunck Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Matthew Wilcox Cc: Christoph Hellwig

isofs: Fix lseek() to position beyond 4 GB

2010-08-11T04:29:47Z

isofs supports files larger than 4 GB by using multi-extent files. However an lseek() to a position beyond 4 GB in such a file will fail with EINVAL, because s_maxbytes in the isofs superblock is initialized to 2^32-1, and generic_file_llseek() checks against that value. I therefore suggest increasing the value of s_maxbytes to have full support for large files in isofs. With multi-extent files, file size is only limited by the maximum size of the file system (8 TB), so this seems a reasonable value for s_maxbytes. Signed-off-by: Jan Andres Signed-off-by: Al Viro

fs/: do not fallback to default_llseek() when readdir() uses BKL

2010-05-27T16:12:56Z

Do not use the fallback default_llseek() if the readdir operation of the filesystem still uses the big kernel lock. Since llseek() modifies file->f_pos of the directory directly it may need locking to not confuse readdir which usually uses file->f_pos directly as well Since the special characteristics of the BKL (unlocked on schedule) are not necessary in this case, the inode mutex can be used for locking as provided by generic_file_llseek(). This is only possible since all filesystems, except reiserfs, either use a directory as a flat file or with disk address offsets. Reiserfs on the other hand uses a 32bit hash off the filename as the offset so generic_file_llseek() can get used as well since the hash is always smaller than sb->s_maxbytes (= (512 << 32) - blocksize).

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32Z

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.
