ext4: pass a char * to ext4_count_free() instead of a buffer_head ptr

2012-08-09T15:31:40Z

commit f6fb99cadcd44660c68e13f6eab28333653621e6 upstream. Make it possible for ext4_count_free to operate on buffers and not just data in buffer_heads. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ext4: fix potential NULL dereference in ext4_free_inodes_counts()

2012-06-09T15:36:15Z

commit bb3d132a24cd8bf5e7773b2d9f9baa58b07a7dae upstream. The ext4_get_group_desc() function returns NULL on error, and ext4_free_inodes_count() function dereferences it without checking. There is a check on the next line, but it's too late. Reviewed-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ext4: remove trailing newlines from ext4_msg() and ext4_error() messages

2012-03-20T03:13:43Z

The functions ext4_msg() and ext4_error() already tack on a trailing newline, so remove the unnecessary extra newline. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o"

ext4: fix race when setting bitmap_uptodate flag

2012-02-20T22:52:46Z

In ext4_read_{inode,block}_bitmap() we were setting bitmap_uptodate() before submitting the buffer for read. The is bad, since we check bitmap_uptodate() without locking the buffer, and so if another process is racing with us, it's possible that they will think the bitmap is uptodate even though the read has not completed yet, resulting in inodes and blocks potentially getting allocated more than once if we get really unlucky.

ext4: fold ext4_claim_inode into ext4_new_inode

2012-02-07T01:12:03Z

The function ext4_claim_inode() is only called by one function, ext4_new_inode(), and by folding the functionality into ext4_new_inode(), we can remove almost 50 lines of code, and put all of the logic of allocating a new inode into a single place. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o"

ext4: use proper little-endian bitops

2011-12-29T01:32:07Z

ext4_{set,clear}_bit() is defined as __test_and_{set,clear}_bit_le() for ext4. Only two ext4_{set,clear}_bit() calls check the return value. The rest of calls ignore the return value and they can be replaced with __{set,clear}_bit_le(). This changes ext4_{set,clear}_bit() from __test_and_{set,clear}_bit_le() to __{set,clear}_bit_le() and introduces ext4_test_and_{set,clear}_bit() for the two places where old bit needs to be returned. This ext4_{set,clear}_bit() change is considered safe, because if someone uses these macros without noticing the change, new ext4_{set,clear}_bit don't have return value and causes compiler errors where the return value is used. This also removes unused ext4_find_first_zero_bit(). Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o"
