UBI: do not link debug messages when debugging is disabled

2011-08-19T16:02:27Z

Michal Marek spotted the same issue in UBIFS and this patch fixes UBI, see "UBIFS: not build debug messages with CONFIG_UBIFS_FS_DEBUG disabled" When UBI debugging is disabled, we have debugging messages defined as: if (0) pr_debug() But pr_debug macro defines data structures with debugging data and makes the linux binary larger, even though we have "if (0)".

VFS : mount lock scalability for internal mounts

2011-07-24T14:08:32Z

For a number of file systems that don't have a mount point (e.g. sockfs and pipefs), they are not marked as long term. Therefore in mntput_no_expire, all locks in vfs_mount lock are taken instead of just local cpu's lock to aggregate reference counts when we release reference to file objects. In fact, only local lock need to have been taken to update ref counts as these file systems are in no danger of going away until we are ready to unregister them. The attached patch marks file systems using kern_mount without mount point as long term. The contentions of vfs_mount lock is now eliminated. Before un-registering such file system, kern_unmount should be called to remove the long term flag and make the mount point ready to be freed. Signed-off-by: Tim Chen Signed-off-by: Al Viro

fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlers

2011-07-21T00:47:59Z

Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

powerpc/85xx: fix NAND_CMD_READID read bytes number

2011-06-22T11:08:48Z

when nand_get_flash_type() is called, it will read 8 bytes of ID instead of 5, but the driver only read 5 bytes, so kernel will dump error messages like: fsl-lbc ffe124000.localbus: read_byte beyond end of buffer fsl-lbc ffe124000.localbus: read_byte beyond end of buffer fsl-lbc ffe124000.localbus: read_byte beyond end of buffer Signed-off-by: Shaohui Xie Acked-by: Scott Wood Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala
