In generic_perform_write if we fail to copy the user data we don't update the inode->i_size. We should truncate the file in the above case so that we don't have blocks allocated outside inode->i_size. Add the inode to orphan list in the same transaction as block allocation This ensures that if we crash in between the recovery would do the truncate.

We should add inode to the orphan list in the same transaction as block allocation. This ensures that if we crash after a failed block allocation and before we do a vmtruncate we don't leak block (ie block marked as used in bitmap but not claimed by the inode).

This patch changes ext4 super.c to include the device name with all warning/error messages, by using a new utility function ext4_msg. It's a rather large patch, but very mechanic. I left debug printks alone. This is a straightforward port of a patch which Andi Kleen did for ext3.

Get rid of EXTEND_DISKSIZE flag of ext4_get_blocks_handle(). This seems to be a relict from some old days and setting disksize in this function does not make much sense. Currently it was set only by ext4_getblk(). Since the parameter has some effect only if create == 1, it is easy to check by grepping through the sources that the three callers which end up calling ext4_getblk() with create == 1 (ext4_append, ext4_quota_write, ext4_mkdir) do the right thing and set disksize themselves.

Cleanup of whitespace and formatting.

To catch filesystem bugs or corruption which could lead to the filesystem getting severly damaged, this patch adds a facility for tracking all of the filesystem metadata blocks by contiguous regions in a red-black tree. This allows quick searching of the tree to locate extents which might overlap with filesystem metadata blocks. This facility is also used by the multi-block allocator to assure that it is not allocating blocks out of the system zone, as well as by the routines used when reading indirect blocks and extents information from disk to make sure their contents are valid.

The ext4_get_blocks() function was depending on the value of bh_result->b_state as an input parameter to decide whether or not update the delalloc accounting statistics by calling ext4_da_update_reserve_space(). We now use a separate flag, EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_UPDATE_RESERVE_SPACE, to requests this update, so that all callers of ext4_get_blocks() can clear map_bh.b_state before calling ext4_get_blocks() without worrying about any consistency issues.

This adds more documentation to various internal functions in fs/ext4/inode.c, most notably ext4_ind_get_blocks(), ext4_da_get_block_write(), ext4_da_get_block_prep(), ext4_normal_get_block_write(). In addition, the static function ext4_normal_get_block_write() has been renamed noalloc_get_block_write(), since it is used in many places far beyond ext4_normal_writepage(). Plenty of warnings have been added to the noalloc_get_block_write() function, since the way it is used is amazingly fragile. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

The functions ext4_get_blocks(), ext4_ext_get_blocks(), and ext4_ind_get_blocks() used an ad-hoc set of integer variables used as boolean flags passed in as arguments. Use a single flags parameter and a setandard set of bitfield flags instead. This saves space on the call stack, and it also makes the code a bit more understandable.

We have sb_bgl_lock() and ext4_group_info.bb_state bit spinlock to protech group information. The later is only used within mballoc code. Consolidate them to use sb_bgl_lock(). This makes the mballoc.c code much simpler and also avoid confusion with two locks protecting same info.

Carl Henrik Lunde reported and debugged this; the test for the last allocated block was comparing bytes to blocks in this test: if (logical + length - 1 == EXT_MAX_BLOCK || ext4_ext_next_allocated_block(path) == EXT_MAX_BLOCK) flags |= FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST; so any extent which ended right at 4G was stopping the extent walk. Just replacing these values with the extent block & length should fix it. Also give blksize_bits a saner type, and reverse the order of the tests to make the more likely case tested first.

In memory-constrained systems with many partitions, the ~68K for each partition for the mb_history buffer can be excessive. This patch adds a new mount option, mb_history_length, as well as a way of setting the default via a module parameter (or via a sysfs parameter in /sys/module/ext4/parameter/default_mb_history_length). If the mb_history_length is set to zero, the mb_history facility is disabled entirely. Signed-off-by: Curt Wohlgemuth <curtw@google.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

By avoiding the use of not-yet-used block groups (i.e., block groups with the BLOCK_UNINIT flag), mballoc had a tendency to create large files with large non-contiguous gaps. In addition avoiding the use of new block groups had a tendency to push regular file data into the first block group in a flex_bg group, which slows down the speed of e2fsck pass 2, since it has a tendency to seek much more. For example: Before Patch After Patch Time in seconds Time in seconds Real / User/ Sys MB/s Real / User/ Sys MB/s Pass 1 8.52 / 2.21 / 0.46 20.43 8.84 / 4.97 / 1.11 19.68 Pass 2 21.16 / 1.02 / 1.86 11.30 6.54 / 1.77 / 1.78 36.39 Pass 3 0.01 / 0.00 / 0.00 139.00 0.01 / 0.01 / 0.00 128.90 Pass 4 0.16 / 0.15 / 0.00 0.00 0.17 / 0.17 / 0.00 0.00 Pass 5 2.52 / 1.99 / 0.09 0.79 2.31 / 1.78 / 0.06 0.86 Total 32.40 / 5.11 / 2.49 12.81 17.99 / 8.75 / 2.98 23.01 This was on a sample 80 gig root filesystem which was approximately 50% full. Note the improved e2fsck pass 2 performance, by over a factor of 3, due to a decreased number of seeks. (The total amount of I/O in pass 2 was unchanged; the layout of the directory blocks was simply much better from e2fsck's's perspective.) Other changes as a result of this patch on this sample filesystem: Before Patch After Patch # of non-contig files 762 779 # of non-contig directories 571 570 # of BLOCK_UNINIT bg's 307 293 # of INODE_UNINIT bg's 503 503 Out of 640 block groups, of which 333 were in use, this patch caused an extra 14 block groups to be utilized. The number of non-contiguous files did go up slightly, but when measured against the 99.9% of the files (603,154) which were contiguously allocated, this is pretty insignificant.

The function ext4_mark_recovery_complete() is called from two call paths: either (a) while mounting the filesystem, in which case there's no danger of any other CPU calling write_super() until the mount is completed, and (b) while remounting the filesystem read-write, in which case the fs core has already locked the superblock. This also allows us to take out a very vile unlock_super()/lock_super() pair in ext4_remount(). Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Ext4's on-line resizing adds a new block group and then, only at the last step adjusts s_groups_count. However, it's possible on SMP systems that another CPU could see the updated the s_group_count and not see the newly initialized data structures for the just-added block group. For this reason, it's important to insert a SMP read barrier after reading s_groups_count and before reading any (for example) the new block group descriptors allowed by the increased value of s_groups_count. Unfortunately, we rather blatently violate this locking protocol documented in fs/ext4/resize.c. Fortunately, (1) on-line resizes happen relatively rarely, and (2) it seems rare that the filesystem code will immediately try to use just-added block group before any memory ordering issues resolve themselves. So apparently problems here are relatively hard to hit, since ext3 has been vulnerable to the same issue for years with no one apparently complaining. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

By using a separate super_operations structure for filesystems that have and don't have journals, we can simply ext4_write_super() --- which is only needed when no journal is present --- and ext4_freeze(), ext4_unfreeze(), and ext4_sync_fs(), which are only needed when the journal is present.

The s_dirt flag wasn't completely handled correctly, but it didn't really matter when journalling was enabled. It turns out that when ext4 runs without a journal, we don't clear s_dirt in places where we should have, with the result that the high-level write_super() function was writing the superblock when it wasn't necessary. So we fix this by making ext4_commit_super() clear the s_dirt flag, and removing many of the other places where s_dirt is manipulated. When journalling is enabled, the s_dirt flag might be left set more often, but s_dirt really doesn't matter when journalling is enabled. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
