* ocfs2: Reserve ioctl rangeTao Ma2008-01-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | We need to reserve at least two ioctls for online-resize. Reserve a small range of ioctls for Ocfs2 use in Documentation/ioctl-number.txt. This should give us enough room for future growth. Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <tao.ma@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
* ocfs2: Initalize bitmap_cpg of ocfs2_super to be the maximum.Tao Ma2008-01-251-18/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This value is initialized from global_bitmap->id2.i_chain.cl_cpg. If there is only 1 group, it will be equal to the total clusters in the volume. So as for online resize, it should change for all the nodes in the cluster. It isn't easy and there is no corresponding lock for it. bitmap_cpg is only used in 2 areas: 1. Check whether the suballoc is too large for us to allocate from the global bitmap, so it is little used. And now the suballoc size is 2048, it rarely meet this situation and the check is almost useless. 2. Calculate which group a cluster belongs to. We use it during truncate to figure out which cluster group an extent belongs too. But we should be OK if we increase it though as the cluster group calculated shouldn't change and we only ever have a small bitmap_cpg on file systems with a single cluster group.

* ocfs2: Documentation updateMark Fasheh2008-01-252-9/+2
| | | | | | | | Remove 'readpages' from the list in ocfs2.txt. Instead of having two identical lists, I just removed the list in the OCFS2 section of fs/Kconfig and added a pointer to Documentation/filesystems/ocfs2.txt. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
* ocfs2: Readpages supportMark Fasheh2008-01-251-2/+66
| | | | | | | | Add ->readpages support to Ocfs2. This is rather trivial - all it required is a small update to ocfs2_get_block (for mapping full extents via b_size) and an ocfs2_readpages() function which partially mirrors ocfs2_readpage(). Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

* ocfs2: Rename ocfs2_meta_[un]lockMark Fasheh2008-01-2516-144/+144
| | | | | | | Call this the "inode_lock" now, since it covers both data and meta data. This patch makes no functional changes. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
* ocfs2: Remove data locksMark Fasheh2008-01-259-214/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The meta lock now covers both meta data and data, so this just removes the now-redundant data lock. Combining locks saves us a round of lock mastery per inode and one less lock to ping between nodes during read/write. We don't lose much - since meta locks were always held before a data lock (and at the same level) ordered writeout mode (the default) ensured that flushing for the meta data lock also pushed out data anyways.

* ocfs2: Add data downconvert worker to inode lockMark Fasheh2008-01-251-0/+5
| | | | | | | | In order to extend inode lock coverage to inode data, we use the same data downconvert worker with only a small modification to only do work for regular files. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
* ocfs2: Remove mount/unmount votesMark Fasheh2008-01-2515-967/+179
| | | | | | | | | | | | The node maps that are set/unset by these votes are no longer relevant, thus we can remove the mount and umount votes. Since those are the last two remaining votes, we can also remove the entire vote infrastructure. The vote thread has been renamed to the downconvert thread, and the small amount of functionality related to managing it has been moved into fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.c. All references to votes have been removed or updated. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
* ocfs2: Remove fs dependency on ocfs2_heartbeat moduleMark Fasheh2008-01-253-83/+0
| | | | | | | | | Now that the dlm exposes domain information to us, we don't need generic node up / node down callbacks. And since the DLM is only telling us when a node goes down unexpectedly, we no longer need to optimize away node down callbacks via the umount map. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

| * JFS is missing a memory barrierNick Piggin2008-01-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | JFS is missing a memory barrier needed to close the critical section before clearing the lock bit. Use lock bitops for this. unlock_page() has a second barrier after clearing the lock, which is required because it checks whether the waitqueue is active without locks. Such a barrier is not required here because the waitqueue spinlock is always taken (something to think about if performance is an issue).

| * JFS: clear PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY for no-write pagesDave Kleikamp2008-01-031-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When JFS decides to drop a dirty metapage, it simply clears the META_dirty bit and leave alone the PG_dirty and PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY bits. When such no-write page goes to metapage_writepage(), the `relic' PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY tag should be cleared, to prevent pdflush from repeatedly trying to sync them. This is done through set_page_writeback(), so call it should be called in all cases. If no I/O is initiated, end_page_writeback() should be called immediately. This is how __block_write_full_page() does things. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> CC: Fengguang Wu <wfg@mail.ustc.edu.cn>

This will allow filesystems to directly own and control all of their mount options if they so choose. This interface deals only with option identifiers and strings so it should generic enough for any LSM which may come in the future. Filesystems which pass text mount data around in the kernel (almost all of them) need not currently make use of this interface when dealing with SELinux since it will still parse those strings as it always has. I assume future LSM's would do the same. NFS is the primary FS which does not use text mount data and thus must make use of this interface. An LSM would need to implement these functions only if they had mount time options, such as selinux has context= or fscontext=. If the LSM has no mount time options they could simply not implement and let the dummy ops take care of things. An LSM other than SELinux would need to define new option numbers in security.h and any FS which decides to own there own security options would need to be patched to use this new interface for every possible LSM. This is because it was stated to me very clearly that LSM's should not attempt to understand FS mount data and the burdon to understand security should be in the FS which owns the options.

| * | | ptrace: Call arch_ptrace_attach() when request=PTRACE_TRACEMEHaavard Skinnemoen2008-01-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | arch_ptrace_attach() is a hook that allows the architecture to do book-keeping after a ptrace attach. This patch adds a call to this hook when handling a PTRACE_TRACEME request as well. Currently only one architecture, m32r, implements this hook. When called, it initializes a number of debug trap slots in the ptraced task's thread struct, and it looks to me like this is the right thing to do after a PTRACE_TRACEME request as well, not only after PTRACE_ATTACH. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I want to use this hook on AVR32 to turn the debugging hardware on when a process is actually being debugged and keep it off otherwise. To be able to do this, I need to intercept PTRACE_TRACEME and PTRACE_ATTACH, as well as PTRACE_DETACH and thread exit. The latter two can be handled by existing hooks.

| * | | [AVR32] Remove redundant try_to_freeze() call from do_signal()Haavard Skinnemoen2008-01-251-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_signal_to_deliver() will call try_to_freeze(), so there's no point in do_signal() doing it as well. Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com>
