2009-12-23ext4: flush delalloc blocks when space is lowEric Sandeen1-2/+9
Creating many small files in rapid succession on a small filesystem can lead to spurious ENOSPC; on a 104MB filesystem: for i in `seq 1 22500`; do echo -n > $SCRATCH_MNT/$i echo XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX > $SCRATCH_MNT/$i done leads to ENOSPC even though after a sync, 40% of the fs is free again. This is because we reserve worst-case metadata for delalloc writes, and when data is allocated that worst-case reservation is not usually needed. When freespace is low, kicking off an async writeback will start converting that worst-case space usage into something more realistic, almost always freeing up space to continue. This resolves the testcase for me, and survives all 4 generic ENOSPC tests in xfstests. We'll still need a hard synchronous sync to squeeze out the last bit, but this fixes things up to a large degree.

2009-12-23fs-writeback: Add helper function to start writeback if idleEric Sandeen2-0/+18
ext4, at least, would like to start pushing on writeback if it starts to get close to ENOSPC when reserving worst-case blocks for delalloc writes. Writing out delalloc data will convert those worst-case predictions into usually smaller actual usage, freeing up space before we hit ENOSPC based on this speculation. Thanks to Jens for the suggestion for the helper function, & the naming help. I've made the helper return status on whether writeback was started even though I don't plan to use it in the ext4 patch; it seems like it would be potentially useful to test this in some cases.

2009-12-23ext4: Eliminate potential double free on error pathJulia Lawall1-0/+2
b_entry_name and buffer are initially NULL, are initialized within a loop to the result of calling kmalloc, and are freed at the bottom of this loop. The loop contains gotos to cleanup, which also frees b_entry_name and buffer. Some of these gotos are before the reinitializations of b_entry_name and buffer. To maintain the invariant that b_entry_name and buffer are NULL at the top of the loop, and thus acceptable arguments to kfree, these variables are now set to NULL after the kfrees. This seems to be the simplest solution. A more complicated solution would be to introduce more labels in the error handling code at the end of the function. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r@ identifier E; expression E1; iterator I; statement S; @@ *kfree(E); ... when != E = E1 when != I(E,...) S when != &E *kfree(E); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2009-12-23ext4, jbd2: Add barriers for file systems with exernal journalsTheodore Ts'o4-10/+41
This is a bit complicated because we are trying to optimize when we send barriers to the fs data disk. We could just throw in an extra barrier to the data disk whenever we send a barrier to the journal disk, but that's not always strictly necessary. We only need to send a barrier during a commit when there are data blocks which are must be written out due to an inode written in ordered mode, or if fsync() depends on the commit to force data blocks to disk. Finally, before we drop transactions from the beginning of the journal during a checkpoint operation, we need to guarantee that any blocks that were flushed out to the data disk are firmly on the rust platter before we drop the transaction from the journal. Thanks to Oleg Drokin for pointing out this flaw in ext3/ext4. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2009-12-14ext4: replace BUG() with return -EIO in ext4_ext_get_blocksSurbhi Palande1-1/+7
This patch fixes the Kernel BZ #14286. When the address of an extent corresponding to a valid block is corrupted, a -EIO should be reported instead of a BUG(). This situation should not normally not occur except in the case of a corrupted filesystem. If however it does, then the system should not panic directly but depending on the mount time options appropriate action should be taken. If the mount options so permit, the I/O should be gracefully aborted by returning a -EIO. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14286 Signed-off-by: Surbhi Palande <surbhi.palande@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
