Note that since we can't run into contention between remount_fs and write_super (due to exclusion on s_umount), we have to care only about filesystems that touch lock_super() on their own. Out of those ext3, ext4, hpfs, sysv and ufs do need it; fat doesn't since its ->remount_fs() only accesses assign-once data (basically, it's "we have no atime on directories and only have atime on files for vfat; force nodiratime and possibly noatime into *flags").

Move BKL into ->put_super from the only caller. A couple of filesystems had trivial enough ->put_super (only kfree and NULLing of s_fs_info + stuff in there) to not get any locking: coda, cramfs, efs, hugetlbfs, omfs, qnx4, shmem, all others got the full treatment. Most of them probably don't need it, but I'd rather sort that out individually. Preferably after all the other BKL pushdowns in that area. [AV: original used to move lock_super() down as well; these changes are removed since we don't do lock_super() at all in generic_shutdown_super() now] [AV: fuse, btrfs and xfs are known to need no damn BKL, exempt] Signed-off-by:

We can't run into contention on it. All other callers of lock_super() either hold s_umount (and we have it exclusive) or hold an active reference to superblock in question, which prevents the call of generic_shutdown_super() while the reference is held. So we can replace lock_super(s) with get_fs_excl() in generic_shutdown_super() (and corresponding change for unlock_super(), of course). Since ext4 expects s_lock held for its put_super, take lock_super() into it. The rest of filesystems do not care at all. Signed-off-by: -

Make sure a superblock really is writeable by checking MS_RDONLY under s_umount. sync_filesystems needed some re-arragement for that, but all but one sync_filesystem caller had the correct locking already so that we could add that check there. cachefiles grew s_umount locking. I've also added a WARN_ON to sync_filesystem to assert this for future callers. Signed-off-by:

Merge the write_super helper into sync_super and move the check for ->write_super earlier so that we can avoid grabbing a reference to a superblock that doesn't have it. While we're at it also add a little comment documenting sync_supers. Signed-off-by:

We just did a full fs writeout using sync_filesystem before, and if that's not enough for the filesystem it can perform it's own writeout in ->put_super, which many filesystems already do. Move a call to foofs_write_super into every foofs_put_super for now to guarantee identical behaviour until it's cleaned up by the individual filesystem maintainers. Exceptions: - affs already has identical copy & pasted code at the beginning of affs_put_super so no need to do it twice. - xfs does the right thing without it and I have changes pending for the xfs tree touching this are so I don't really need conflicts here..

Introduce this function which just writes all the quota structures but avoids all the syncing and cache pruning work to expose quota structures to userspace. Use this function from __sync_filesystem when wait == 0. Signed-off-by:

Currently the VFS calls vfs_dq_sync to sync out disk quotas for a given superblock. This is a small wrapper around sync_dquots which for the case of a non-NULL superblock is a small wrapper around quota_sync_sb. Just make quota_sync_sb global (rename it to sync_quota_sb) and call it directly. Also call it directly for those cases in quota.c that have a superblock and leave sync_dquots purely an iterator over sync_quota_sb and remove it's superblock argument. To make this nicer move the check for the lack of a quota_sync method from the callers into sync_quota_sb. [folded build fix from Alexander Beregalov <a.beregalov@gmail.com>] Signed-off-by:

It is unnecessarily fragile to have two places (fsync_super() and do_sync()) doing data integrity sync of the filesystem. Alter __fsync_super() to accommodate needs of both callers and use it. So after this patch __fsync_super() is the only place where we gather all the calls needed to properly send all data on a filesystem to disk. Nice bonus is that we get a complete livelock avoidance and write_supers() is now only used for periodic writeback of superblocks. sync_blockdevs() introduced a couple of patches ago is gone now.

__fsync_super() does the same thing as fsync_super(). So change the only caller to use fsync_super() and make __fsync_super() static. This removes unnecessarily duplicated call to sync_blockdev() and prepares ground for the changes to __fsync_super() in the following patches. Signed-off-by:

sync_filesystems() has a condition that if wait == 0 and s_dirt == 0, then ->sync_fs() isn't called. This does not really make much sence since s_dirt is generally used by a filesystem to mean that ->write_super() needs to be called. But ->sync_fs() does different things. I even suspect that some filesystems (btrfs?) sets s_dirt just to fool this logic. Signed-off-by:

So far, do_sync() called: sync_inodes(0); sync_supers(); sync_filesystems(0); sync_filesystems(1); sync_inodes(1); This ordering makes it kind of hard for filesystems as sync_inodes(0) need not submit all the IO (for example it skips inodes with I_SYNC set) so e.g. forcing transaction to disk in ->sync_fs() is not really enough. Therefore sys_sync has not been completely reliable on some filesystems (ext3, ext4, reiserfs, ocfs2 and others are hit by this) when racing e.g. with background writeback. A similar problem hits also other filesystems (e.g. ext2) because of write_supers() being called before the sync_inodes(1). Change the ordering of calls in do_sync() - this requires a new function sync_blockdevs() to preserve the property that block devices are always synced after write_super() / sync_fs() call. The same issue is fixed in __fsync_super() function used on umount / remount read-only. [AV: build fixes] Signed-off-by:

Remove the unused s_async_list in the superblock, a leftover of the broken async inode deletion code that leaked into mainline. Having this in the middle of the sync/unmount path is not helpful for the following cleanups. Signed-off-by:

This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about another 2% after the first patch. Before: avg = 462.286 std = 5.46106 After: avg = 453.12 std = 9.58257 (50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence) It does this by introducing mnt_clone_write, which avoids some heavyweight operations of mnt_want_write if called on a vfsmount which we know already has a write count; and mnt_want_write_file, which can call mnt_clone_write if the file is open for write. After these two patches, mnt_want_write and mnt_drop_write go from 7% on the profile down to 1.3% (including mnt_clone_write). [AV: mnt_want_write_file() should take file alone and derive mnt from it; not only all callers have that form, but that's the only mnt about which we know that it's already held for write if file is opened for write] Cc: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by:

This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about 8%. lat_mmap is set up basically to mmap a 64MB file on tmpfs, fault in its pages, then unmap it. A microbenchmark yes, but it exercises some important paths in the mm. Before: avg = 501.9 std = 14.7773 After: avg = 462.286 std = 5.46106 (50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence, but there is quite a bit of variation there still) It does this by removing the complex per-cpu locking and counter-cache and replaces it with a percpu counter in struct vfsmount. This makes the code much simpler, and avoids spinlocks (although the msync is still pretty costly, unfortunately). It results in about 900 bytes smaller code too. It does increase the size of a vfsmount, however. It should also give a speedup on large systems if CPUs are frequently operating on different mounts (because the existing scheme has to operate on an atomic in the struct vfsmount when switching between mounts). But I'm most interested in the single threaded path performance for the moment. [AV: minor cleanup] Cc: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by:

New field: nd->root. When pathname resolution wants to know the root, check if nd->root.mnt is non-NULL; use nd->root if it is, otherwise copy current->fs->root there. After path_walk() is finished, we check if we'd got a cached value in nd->root and drop it. Before calling path_walk() we should either set nd->root.mnt to NULL *or* copy (and pin down) some path to nd->root. In the latter case we won't be looking at current->fs->root at all.

Split do_path_lookup(), opencode the call from do_filp_open() do_filp_open() is the only caller of do_path_lookup() that cares about root afterwards (it keeps resolving symlinks on O_CREAT path after it'd done LOOKUP_PARENT walk). So when we start caching fs->root in path_walk(), it'll need a different treatment. Signed-off-by:
