2012-12-17fs/fat: strip "cp" prefix from codepage in displayDave Reisner
Option parsing code expects an unsigned integer for the codepage option, but prefixes and stores this option with "cp" before passing to load_nls(). This makes the displayed option in /proc an invalid one. Strip the prefix when printing so that the displayed option is valid for reuse.

2012-12-17fat: provide option for setting timezone offsetJan Kara
So far FAT either offsets time stamps by sys_tz.minuteswest or leaves them as they are (when tz=UTC mount option is used). However in some cases it is useful if one can specify time stamp offset on his own (e.g. when time zone of the camera connected is different from time zone of the computer, or when HW clock is in UTC and thus sys_tz.minuteswest == 0). So provide a mount option time_offset= which allows user to specify offset in minutes that should be applied to time stamps on the filesystem. akpm: this code would work incorrectly when used via `mount -o remount', because cached inodes would not be updated. But fatfs's fat_remount() is basically a no-op anyway.

2012-10-06fat (exportfs): fix dentry reconnectionSteven J. Magnani
Maintain an index of directory inodes by starting cluster, so that fat_get_parent() can return the proper cached inode rather than inventing one that cannot be traced back to the filesystem root. Add a new msdos/vfat binary mount option "nfs" so that FAT filesystems that are _not_ exported via NFS are not saddled with maintenance of an index they will never use. Finally, simplify NFS file handle generation and lookups. An ext2-congruent implementation is adequate for FAT needs. Signed-off-by: Steven J.

2012-10-06fat (exportfs): move NFS support codeSteven J. Magnani
Under memory pressure, the system may evict dentries from cache. When the FAT driver receives a NFS request involving an evicted dentry, it is unable to reconnect it to the filesystem root. This causes the request to fail, often with ENOENT. This is partially due to ineffectiveness of the current FAT NFS implementation, and partially due to an unimplemented fh_to_parent method. The latter can cause file accesses to fail on shares exported with subtree_check. This patch set provides the FAT driver with the ability to reconnect dentries. NFS file handle generation and lookups are simplified and made congruent with ext2. Testing has involved a memory-starved virtual machine running 3.5-rc5 that exports a ~2 GB vfat filesystem containing a kernel tree (~770 MB, ~40000 files, 9 levels). Both 'cp -r' and 'ls -lR' operations were performed from a client, some overlapping, some consecutive. Exports with 'subtree_check' and 'no_subtree_check' have been tested. Note that while this patch set improves FAT's NFS support, it does not eliminate ESTALE errors completely. The following should be considered for NFS clients who are sensitive to ESTALE: * Mounting with lookupcache=none Unfortunately this can degrade performance severely, particularly for deep filesystems. * Incorporating VFS patches to retry ESTALE failures on the client-side, such as https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/29/381 * Handling ESTALE errors in client application code This patch: Move NFS-related code into its own C file.

2012-05-31fat: switch to fsinfo_inodeArtem Bityutskiy
Currently FAT file-system maps the VFS "superblock" abstraction to the FSINFO block. The FSINFO block contains non-essential data about the amount of free clusters and the next free cluster. FAT file-system can always find out this information by scanning the FAT table, but having it in the FSINFO block may speed things up sometimes. So FAT file-system relies on the VFS superblock write-out services to make sure the FSINFO block is written out to the media from time to time. The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every 5 seconds no matter what. So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super' VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread. This patch switches the FAT FSINFO block management from '->write_super()'/'->s_dirt' to 'fsinfo_inode'/'->write_inode'. Now, instead of setting the 's_dirt' flag, we just mark the special 'fsinfo_inode' inode as dirty and let VFS invoke the '->write_inode' call-back when needed, where we write-out the FSINFO block. This patch also makes sure we do not mark the 'fsinfo_inode' inode as dirty if we are not FAT32 (FAT16 and FAT12 do not have the FSINFO block) or if we are in R/O mode. As a bonus, we can also remove the '->sync_fs()' and '->write_super()' FAT call-back function because they become unneeded.

2012-05-31fat: introduce special inode for managing the FSINFO blockArtem Bityutskiy
This is patchset makes fatfs stop using the VFS '->write_super()' method for writing out the FSINFO block. The final goal is to get rid of the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread. This kernel thread wakes up every 5 seconds (by default) and calls '->write_super()' for all mounted file-systems. And the bad thing is that this is done even if all the superblocks are clean. Moreover, some file-systems do not even need this end they do not register the '->write_super()' method at all (e.g., btrfs). So 'sync_supers()' most often just generates useless wake-ups and wastes power. I am trying to make all file-systems independent of '->write_super()' and plan to remove 'sync_supers()' and '->write_super' completely once there are no more users. The '->write_supers()' method is mostly used by baroque file-systems like hfs, udf, etc. Modern file-systems like btrfs and xfs do not use it. This justifies removing this stuff from VFS completely and make every FS self-manage own superblock. Tested with xfstests. This patch: Preparation for further changes. It introduces a special inode ('fsinfo_inode') in FAT file-system which we'll later use for managing the FSINFO block. Note, this there is already one special inode ('fat_inode') which is used for managing the FAT tables. Introduce new 'MSDOS_FSINFO_INO' constant for this special inode. It is safe to do because FAT file-system does not store inode numbers on the media but generates them run-time. I've also cleaned up the comment to existing 'MSDOS_ROOT_INO' constant, while on it.

2011-01-07fs: icache RCU free inodesNick Piggin
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow: - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must. - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking. - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the page lock to follow page->mapping. The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts kicking over, this increases to about 20%. In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller. The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking, so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I doubt it will be a problem. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>
2010-10-04BKL: Remove BKL from fatArnd Bergmann
The lock_kernel in fat_put_super is not needed because it only protects the super block itself and we know that no other thread can reach it because we are about to kfree the object. In the two fill_super functions, this converts the locking to use lock_super like elsewhere in the fat code. This is probably not needed either, but is consistent and puts us on the safe side.

2010-08-09sort out blockdev_direct_IO variantsChristoph Hellwig
Move the call to vmtruncate to get rid of accessive blocks to the callers in prepearation of the new truncate calling sequence. This was only done for DIO_LOCKING filesystems, so the __blockdev_direct_IO_newtrunc variant was not needed anyway. Get rid of blockdev_direct_IO_no_locking and its _newtrunc variant while at it as just opencoding the two additional paramters is shorted than the name suffix.

This gives the filesystem more information about the writeback that is happening. Trond requested this for the NFS unstable write handling, and other filesystems might benefit from this too by beeing able to distinguish between the different callers in more detail.
