This patch fixes what I hope is the last early ENOSPC bug left. I did not know that pinned extents would merge into one big extent when inserted on to the pinned extent tree, so I was adding free space to a block group that could possibly span multiple block groups. This is a big issue because first that space doesn't exist in that block group, and second we won't actually use that space because there are a bunch of other checks to make sure we're allocating within the constraints of the block group. This patch fixes the problem by adding the btrfs_add_free_space to btrfs_update_pinned_extents which makes sure we are adding the appropriate amount of free space to the appropriate block group. Thanks much to Lee Trager for running my myriad of debug patches to help me track this problem down. Thank you, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com>

fsync log replay can change the filesystem, so it cannot be delayed until mount -o rw,remount, and it can't be forgotten entirely. So, this patch changes btrfs to do with reiserfs, ext3 and xfs do, which is to do the log replay even when mounted readonly. On a readonly device if log replay is required, the mount is aborted. Getting all of this right had required fixing up some of the error handling in open_ctree. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

While building large bios in writepages, btrfs may end up waiting for other page writeback to finish if WB_SYNC_ALL is used. While it is waiting, the bio it is building has a number of pages with the writeback bit set and they aren't getting to the disk any time soon. This lowers the latencies of writeback in general by sending down the bio being built before waiting for other pages. The bio submission code tries to limit the total number of async bios in flight by waiting when we're over a certain number of async bios. But, the waits are happening while writepages is building bios, and this can easily lead to stalls and other problems for people calling wait_on_page_writeback. The current fix is to let the congestion tests take care of waiting. sync() and others make sure to drain the current async requests to make sure that everything that was pending when the sync was started really get to disk. The code would drain pending requests both before and after submitting a new request. But, if one of the requests is waiting for page writeback to finish, the draining waits might block that page writeback. This changes the draining code to only wait after submitting the bio being processed. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

For larger multi-device filesystems, there was logic to limit the number of devices unplugged to just the page that was sent to our sync_page function. But, the code wasn't always unplugging the right device. Since this was just an optimization, disable it for now. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

In insert_extents(), when ret==1 and last is not zero, it should check if the current inserted item is the last item in this batching inserts. If so, it should just break from loop. If not, 'cur = insert_list->next' will make no sense because the list is empty now, and 'op' will point to an unexpectable place. There are also some trivial fixs in this patch including one comment typo error and deleting two redundant lines. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

For a directory tree: /mnt/subvolA/subvolB btrfsctl -s /mnt/subvolA/subvolB /mnt Will create a directory loop with subvolA under subvolB. This commit uses the forward refs for each subvol and snapshot to error out before creating the loop. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Chris Mason authored
Subvols and snapshots can now be referenced from any point in the directory tree. We need to maintain back refs for them so we can find lost subvols. Forward refs are added so that we know all of the subvols and snapshots referenced anywhere in the directory tree of a single subvol. This can be used to do recursive snapshotting (but they aren't yet) and it is also used to detect and prevent directory loops when creating new snapshots.

Each subvolume has its own private inode number space, and so we need to fill in different device numbers for each subvolume to avoid confusing applications. This commit puts a struct super_block into struct btrfs_root so it can call set_anon_super() and get a different device number generated for each root. btrfs_rename is changed to prevent renames across subvols.

Before, all snapshots and subvolumes lived in a single flat directory. This was awkward and confusing because the single flat directory was only writable with the ioctls. This commit changes the ioctls to create subvols and snapshots at any point in the directory tree. This requires making separate ioctls for snapshot and subvol creation instead of a combining them into one. The subvol ioctl does: btrfsctl -S subvol_name parent_dir After the ioctl is done subvol_name lives inside parent_dir. The snapshot ioctl does: btrfsctl -s path_for_snapshot root_to_snapshot path_for_snapshot can be an absolute or relative path. btrfsctl breaks it up into directory and basename components. root_to_snapshot can be any file or directory in the FS. The snapshot is taken of the entire root where that file lives. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

In my batch delete/update/insert patch I introduced a free space leak. The extent that we do the original search on in free_extents is never pinned, so we always update the block saying that it has free space, but the free space never actually gets added to the free space tree, since op->del will always be 0 and it's never actually added to the pinned extents tree. This patch fixes this problem by making sure we call pin_down_bytes on the pending extent op and set op->del to the return value of pin_down_bytes so update_block_group is called with the right value. This seems to fix the case where we were getting ENOSPC when there was plenty of space available. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com>

Inotify watch removals suck violently. To kick the watch out we need (in this order) inode->inotify_mutex and ih->mutex. That's fine if we have a hold on inode; however, for all other cases we need to make damn sure we don't race with umount. We can *NOT* just grab a reference to a watch - inotify_unmount_inodes() will happily sail past it and we'll end with reference to inode potentially outliving its superblock. Ideally we just want to grab an active reference to superblock if we can; that will make sure we won't go into inotify_umount_inodes() until we are done. Cleanup is just deactivate_super(). However, that leaves a messy case - what if we *are* racing with umount() and active references to superblock can't be acquired anymore? We can bump ->s_count, grab ->s_umount, which will almost certainly wait until the superblock is shut down and the watch in question is pining for fjords. That's fine, but there is a problem - we might have hit the window between ->s_active getting to 0 / ->s_count - below S_BIAS (i.e. the moment when superblock is past the point of no return and is heading for shutdown) and the moment when deactivate_super() acquires ->s_umount. We could just do drop_super() yield() and retry, but that's rather antisocial and this stuff is luser-triggerable. OTOH, having grabbed ->s_umount and having found that we'd got there first (i.e. that ->s_root is non-NULL) we know that we won't race with inotify_umount_inodes(). So we could grab a reference to watch and do the rest as above, just with drop_super() instead of deactivate_super(), right? Wrong. We had to drop ih->mutex before we could grab ->s_umount. So the watch could've been gone already. That still can be dealt with - we need to save watch->wd, do idr_find() and compare its result with our pointer. If they match, we either have the damn thing still alive or we'd lost not one but two races at once, the watch had been killed and a new one got created with the same ->wd at the same address. That couldn't have happened in inotify_destroy(), but inotify_rm_wd() could run into that. Still, "new one got created" is not a problem - we have every right to kill it or leave it alone, whatever's more convenient. So we can use idr_find(...) == watch && watch->inode->i_sb == sb as "grab it and kill it" check. If it's been our original watch, we are fine, if it's a newcomer - nevermind, just pretend that we'd won the race and kill the fscker anyway; we are safe since we know that its superblock won't be going away. And yes, this is far beyond mere "not very pretty"; so's the entire concept of inotify to start with.

A common reason for device drivers to implement their own printk macros is the lack of a printk prefix with the standard pr_xyz macros. Introduce a pr_fmt() macro that is applied for every pr_xyz macro to the format string. The most common use of the pr_fmt macro would be to add the name of the device driver to all pr_xyz messages in a source file.

This reverts commit e51af663, which was wrongly hoovered up and submitted about a month after a better fix had already been merged. The better fix is commit cbda1ba8 ("PCI/iommu: blacklist DMAR on Intel G31/G33 chipsets"), where we do this blacklisting based on the DMI identification for the offending motherboard, since sometimes this chipset (or at least a chipset with the same PCI ID) apparently _does_ actually have an IOMMU.

dpt_i2o.c::adpt_i2o_to_scsi() reads the value at (reply+5) which should contain the length in bytes of the transferred data. This would be correct if reply was a u32 *.

Currently libata uses four methods to detect device presence. 1. PHY status if available. 2. TF register R/W test (only promotes presence, never demotes) 3. device signature after reset 4. IDENTIFY failure detection in SFF state machine Combination of the above works well in most cases but recently there have been a few reports where a phantom device causes unnecessary delay during probe. In both cases, PHY status wasn't available. In one case, it passed #2 and #3 and failed IDENTIFY with ATA_ERR which didn't qualify as #4. The other failed #2 but as it passed #3 and #4, it still caused failure. In both cases, phantom device reported diagnostic failure, so these cases can be safely worked around by considering any !ATA_DRQ IDENTIFY failure as NODEV_HINT if diagnostic failure is set.

With CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER the trace_hardirqs_off() function includes a call to __builtin_return_address(1). But we calltrace_hardirqs_off() from early entry code. There we have just a single stack frame. So this results in a kernel stack backchain walk that would walk beyond the kernel stack. Following the NULL terminated backchain this results in a lowcore read access. To fix this we simply call trace_hardirqs_off_caller() and pass the current instruction pointer.
