* _calc_stripe_info() changes to accommodate for grouping calculations. Returns additional information * old _prepare_pages() becomes _prepare_one_group() which stores pages belonging to one device group. * New _prepare_for_striping iterates on all groups calling _prepare_one_group(). * Enable mounting of groups data_maps (group_width != 0) [QUESTION] what is faster A or B; A. x += stride; x = x % width + first_x; B x += stride if (x < last_x) x = first_x; Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

* Rename _offset_dev_unit_off() to _calc_stripe_info() and recieve a struct for the output params * In _prepare_for_striping we only need to call _calc_stripe_info() once. The other componets are easy to calculate from that. This code was inspired by what's done in truncate. * Some code shifts that make sense now but will make more sense when group support is added.

If an object is referenced by a directory but does not exist on a target, it is a very serious corruption that means: 1. Either a power failure with very slim chance of it happening. Because the directory update is always submitted much after object creation, but if a directory is written to one device and the object creation to another it might theoretically happen. 2. It only ever happened to me while developing with BUGs causing file corruption. Crashes could also cause it but they are more like case 1. In any way the object does not exist, so data is surely lost. If there is a mix-up in the obj-id or data-map, then lost objects can be salvaged by off-line fsck. The only recoverable information is the directory name. By letting it appear as a regular empty file, with date==0 (1970 Jan 1st) ownership to root, we enable recovery of the only useful information. And also enable deletion or over-write. I can see how this can hurt. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

* inode.c operations are full-pages based, and not actually true scatter-gather * Lets us use more pages at once upto 512 (from 249) in 64 bit * Brings us much much closer to be able to use exofs's io_state engine from objlayout driver. (Once I decide where to put the common code) After RAID0 patch the outer (input) bio was never used as a bio, but was simply a page carrier into the raid engine. Even in the simple mirror/single-dev arrangement pages info was copied into a second bio. It is now easer to just pass a pages array into the io_state and prepare bio(s) once.

We now support striping over mirror devices. Including variable sized stripe_unit. Some limits: * stripe_unit must be a multiple of PAGE_SIZE * stripe_unit * stripe_count is maximum upto 32-bit (4Gb) Tested RAID0 over mirrors, RAID0 only, mirrors only. All check. Design notes: * I'm not using a vectored raid-engine mechanism yet. Following the pnfs-objects-layout data-map structure, "Mirror" is just a private case of "group_width" == 1, and RAID0 is a private case of "Mirrors" == 1. The performance lose of the general case over the particular special case optimization is totally negligible, also considering the extra code size. * In general I added a prepare_stripes() stage that divides the to-be-io pages to the participating devices, the previous exofs_ios_write/read, now becomes _write/read_mirrors and a new write/read upper layer loops on all devices calling _write/read_mirrors. Effectively the prepare_stripes stage is the all secret. Also truncate need fixing to accommodate for striping. * In a RAID0 arrangement, in a regular usage scenario, if all inode layouts will start at the same device, the small files fill up the first device and the later devices stay empty, the farther the device the emptier it is. To fix that, each inode will start at a different stripe_unit, according to it's obj_id modulus number-of-stripe-units. And will then span all stripe-units in the same incrementing order wrapping back to the beginning of the device table. We call it a stripe-units moving window. Special consideration was taken to keep all devices in a mirror arrangement identical. So a broken osd-device could just be cloned from one of the mirrors and no FS scrubbing is needed. (We do that by rotating stripe-unit at a time and not a single device at a time.) TODO: We no longer verify object_length == inode->i_size in exofs_iget. (since i_size is stripped on multiple objects now). I should introduce a multiple-device attribute reading, and use it in exofs_iget. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

* Layouts describe the way a file is spread on multiple devices. The layout information is stored in the objects attribute introduced in this patch. * There can be multiple generating function for the layout. Currently defined: - No attribute present - use below moving-window on global device table, all devices. (This is the only one currently used in exofs) - an obj_id generated moving window - the obj_id is a randomizing factor in the otherwise global map layout. - An explicit layout stored, including a data_map and a device index list. - More might be defined in future ... * There are two attributes defined of the same structure: A-data-files-layout - This layout is used by data-files. If present at a directory, all files of that directory will be created with this layout. A-meta-data-layout - This layout is used by a directory and other meta-data information. Also inherited at creation of subdirectories. * At creation time inodes are created with the layout specified above. A usermode utility may change the creation layout on a give directory or file. Which in the case of directories, will also apply to newly created files/subdirectories, children of that directory. In the simple unaltered case of a newly created exofs, no layout attributes are present, and all layouts adhere to the layout specified at the device-table. * In case of a future file system loaded in an old exofs-driver. At iget(), the generating_function is inspected and if not supported will return an IO error to the application and the inode will not be loaded. So not to damage any data. Note: After this patch we do not yet support any type of layout only the RAID0 patch that enables striping at the super-block level will add support for RAID0 layouts above. This way we are past and future compatible and fully bisectable. * Access to the device table is done by an accessor since it will change according to above information.

The original idea was that a mirror read can be sub-divided to multiple devices. But this has very little gain and only at very large IOes so it's not going to be implemented soon. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's 5f8dcc21 "page-allocator: split per-cpu list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves. Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it. How did this bug show up? As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator. Bisecting to that commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy. The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones than x86, I think that may be a factor). We guess that lumpy reclaim of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim. But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.

Now that the previous commit made it possible to do the personality setting at the point of no return, we do just that for ELF binaries. And suddenly all the reasons for that insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit go away, and we can just make SET_PERSONALITY() just do the obvious thing for a 32-bit compat process. Everything becomes much more straightforward this way. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and it is pretty badly misnamed. It doesn't just flush the old executable environment, it also starts up the new one. Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails. As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit (TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do the actual personality magic. This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the 'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail (still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()). All callers are changed to trivially comply with the new world order. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

If you have a disk failure in RAID1 and then add a new disk to the array, and then try to remove the missing volume, it will fail. The reason is the sanity check only looks at the total number of rw devices, which is just 2 because we have 2 good disks and 1 bad one. Instead check the total number of devices in the array to make sure we can actually remove the device. Tested this with a failed disk setup and with this test we can now run btrfs-vol -r missing /mount/point and it works fine.

Hit this problem while testing RAID1 failure stuff. open_bdev_exclusive returns ERR_PTR(), not NULL. So change the return value properly. This is important if you accidently specify a device that doesn't exist when trying to add a new device to an array, you will panic the box dereferencing bdev.

If a RAID setup has chunks that span multiple disks, and one of those disks has failed, btrfs_chunk_readonly will return 1 since one of the disks in that chunk's stripes is dead and therefore not writeable. So instead if we are in degraded mode, return 0 so we can go ahead and allocate stuff. Without this patch all of the block groups in a RAID1 setup will end up read-only, which will mean we can't add new disks to the array since we won't be able to make allocations.

This patch revert's commit 6c090a11 Since it introduces this problem where we can run orphan cleanup on a volume that can have orphan entries re-added. Instead of my original fix, Yan Zheng pointed out that we can just revert my original fix and then run the orphan cleanup in open_ctree after we look up the fs_root. I have tested this with all the tests that gave me problems and this patch fixes both problems.

The default btrfs mount -o compress mode will quickly back off compressing a file if it notices that compression does not reduce the size of the data being written. This can save considerable CPU because all future writes to the file go through uncompressed. But some files are both very large and have mixed data stored in them. In that case, we want to add the ability to always try compressing data before writing it. This commit adds mount -o compress-force. A later commit will add a new inode flag that does the same thing.
