wrappers for ->i_mutex access

2016-01-22T23:04:28+00:00

parallel to mutex_{lock,unlock,trylock,is_locked,lock_nested}, inode_foo(inode) being mutex_foo(&inode->i_mutex). Please, use those for access to ->i_mutex; over the coming cycle ->i_mutex will become rwsem, with ->lookup() done with it held only shared. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

fat: add fat_fallocate operation

2016-01-21T01:09:18+00:00

Implement preallocation via the fallocate syscall on VFAT partitions. This patch is based on an earlier patch of the same name which had some issues detailed below and did not get accepted. Refer https://lkml.org/lkml/2007/12/22/130. a) The preallocated space was not persistent when the FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE flag was set. It will deallocate cluster at evict time. b) There was no need to zero out the clusters when the flag was set Instead of doing an expanding truncate, just allocate clusters and add them to the fat chain. This reduces preallocation time. Compatibility with windows: There are no issues when FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE is not set because it just does an expanding truncate. Thus reading from the preallocated area on windows returns null until data is written to it. When a file with preallocated area using the FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE was written to on windows, the windows driver freed-up the preallocated clusters and allocated new clusters for the new data. The freed up clusters gets reflected in the free space available for the partition which can be seen from the Volume properties. The windows chkdsk tool also does not report any errors on a disk containing files with preallocated space. And there is also no issue using linux fat fsck. because discard preallocated clusters at repair time.

writeback: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h

2015-06-02T14:33:34+00:00

With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup; unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h makes cyclic include dependency quite likely. This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files which need access to more backing-dev details now include backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block and cgroup. v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

All places outside of core VFS that checked ->read and ->write for being NULL or called the methods directly are gone now, so NULL {read,write} with non-NULL {read,write}_iter will do the right thing in all cases. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

fat: fix data past EOF resulting from fsx testsuite

2014-12-13T20:42:51+00:00

When running FSX with direct I/O mode, fsx resulted in DATA past EOF issues. fsx ./file2 -Z -r 4096 -w 4096 ... .. truncating to largest ever: 0x907c fallocating to largest ever: 0x11137 truncating to largest ever: 0x2c6fe truncating to largest ever: 0x2cfdf fallocating to largest ever: 0x40000 Mapped Read: non-zero data past EOF (0x18628) page offset 0x629 is 0x2a4e ... .. The reason being, it is doing a truncate down, but the zeroing does not happen on the last block boundary when offset is not aligned. Even though it calls truncate_setsize()->truncate_inode_pages()-> truncate_inode_pages_range() and considers the partial zeroout but it retrieves the page using find_lock_page() - which only looks the page in the cache. So, zeroing out does not happen in case of direct IO. Make a truncate page based around block_truncate_page for FAT filesystem and invoke that helper to zerout in case the offset is not aligned with the blocksize.
