exofs: deprecate the commands pending counter

2011-03-15T13:02:52Z

One leftover from the days of IBM's original code, is an SB counter that counts in-flight asynchronous commands. And a piece of code that waits for the counter to reach zero at unmount. I guess it might have been needed then, cause of some reference missing or something. I'm not removing it yet but am putting a warning message if ever this counter triggers at unmount. If I'll never see it triggers or reported I'll remove the counter for good. (I had this print as a debug output for a long time and never had it trigger) Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

exofs: Write sbi->s_nextid as part of the Create command

2011-03-15T13:02:51Z

Before when creating a new inode, we'd set the sb->s_dirt flag, and sometime later the system would write out s_nextid as part of the sb_info. Also on inode sync we would force the sb sync as well. Define the s_nextid as a new partition attribute and set it every time we create a new object. At mount we read it from it's new place. We now never set sb->s_dirt anywhere in exofs. write_super is actually never called. The call to exofs_write_super from exofs_put_super is also removed because the VFS always calls ->sync_fs before calling ->put_super twice. To stay backward-and-forward compatible we also write the old s_nextid in the super_block object at unmount, and support zero length attribute on mount. This also fixes a BUG where in layouts when group_width was not a divisor of EXOFS_SUPER_ID (0x10000) the s_nextid was not read from the device it was written to. Because of the sliding window layout trick, and because the read was always done from the 0 device but the write was done via the raid engine that might slide the device view. Now we read and write through the raid engine. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

exofs: Add option to mount by osdname

2011-03-15T13:02:51Z

If /dev/osd* devices are shuffled because more devices where added, and/or login order has changed. It is hard to mount the FS you want. Add an option to mount by osdname. osdname is any osd-device's osdname as specified to the mkfs.exofs command when formatting the osd-devices. The new mount format is: OPT="osdname=$UUID0,pid=$PID,_netdev" mount -t exofs -o $OPT $DEV_OSD0 $MOUNTDIR if "osdname=" is specified in options above $DEV_OSD0 is ignored and can be empty. Also while at it: Removed some old unused Opt_* enums. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

exofs: Override read-ahead to align on stripe_size

2011-03-15T13:02:50Z

* Set all inode->i_mapping->backing_dev_info to point to the per super-block sb->s_bdi. * Calculating a read_ahead that is: - preferable 2 stripes long (Future patch will add a mount option to override this) - Minimum 128K aligned up to stripe-size - Caped to maximum-IO-sizes round down to stripe_size. (Max sizes are governed by max bio-size that fits in a page times number-of-devices) CC: Marc Dionne Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

exofs: simple fsync race fix

2011-03-15T13:02:50Z

It is incorrect to test inode dirty bits without participating in the inode writeback protocol. Inode writeback sets I_SYNC and clears I_DIRTY_?, then writes out the particular bits, then clears I_SYNC when it is done. BTW. it may not completely write all pages out, so I_DIRTY_PAGES would get set again. This is a standard pattern used throughout the kernel's writeback caches (I_SYNC ~= I_WRITEBACK, if that makes it clearer). And so it is not possible to determine an inode's dirty status just by checking I_DIRTY bits. Especially not for the purpose of data integrity syncs. Missing the check for these bits means that fsync can complete while writeback to the inode is underway. Inode writeback functions get this right, so call into them rather than try to shortcut things by testing dirty state improperly. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

exofs: Trivial: fix some indentation and debug prints

2011-03-15T13:00:27Z

I stumbled on some of these prints in log files so, might just submit the fixes. * All i_ino prints in exofs should be hex * All OSD_ERR prints should end with a "\n" Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh
