Pull staging tree update from Greg KH: "Here's the large staging tree merge for 3.11-rc1 Huge thing here is the Lustre client code. Unfortunatly, due to it not building properly on a wide variety of different architectures (this was production code???), it is currently disabled from the build so as to not annoy people. Other than Lustre, there are loads of comedi patches, working to clean up that subsystem, iio updates and new drivers, and a load of cleanups from the OPW applicants in their quest to get a summer internship.

Pull ext4 update from Ted Ts'o: "Lots of bug fixes, cleanups and optimizations. In the bug fixes category, of note is a fix for on-line resizing file systems where the block size is smaller than the page size (i.e., file systems 1k blocks on x86, or more interestingly file systems with 4k blocks on Power or ia64 systems.) In the cleanup category, the ext4's punch hole implementation was significantly improved by Lukas Czerner, and now supports bigalloc file systems. In addition, Jan Kara significantly cleaned up the write submission code path. We also improved error checking and added a few sanity checks. In the optimizations category, two major optimizations deserve mention. The first is that ext4_writepages() is now used for nodelalloc and ext3 compatibility mode. This allows writes to be submitted much more efficiently as a single bio request, instead of being sent as individual 4k writes into the block layer (which then relied on the elevator code to coalesce the requests in the block queue). Secondly, the extent cache shrink mechanism, which was introduce in 3.9, no longer has a scalability bottleneck caused by the i_es_lru spinlock. Other optimizations include some changes to reduce CPU usage and to avoid issuing empty commits unnecessarily." * tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4: (86 commits) ext4: optimize starting extent in ext4_ext_rm_leaf() jbd2: invalidate handle if jbd2_journal_restart() fails ext4: translate flag bits to strings in tracepoints ext4: fix up error handling for mpage_map_and_submit_extent() jbd2: fix theoretical race in jbd2__journal_restart ext4: only zero partial blocks in ext4_zero_partial_blocks() ext4: check error return from ext4_write_inline_data_end() ext4: delete unnecessary C statements ext3,ext4: don't mess with dir_file->f_pos in htree_dirblock_to_tree() jbd2: move superblock checksum calculation to jbd2_write_superblock() ext4: pass inode pointer instead of file pointer to punch hole ext4: improve free space calculation for inline_data ext4: reduce object size when !CONFIG_PRINTK ext4: improve extent cache shrink mechanism to avoid to burn CPU time ext4: implement error handling of ext4_mb_new_preallocation() ext4: fix corruption when online resizing a fs with 1K block size ext4: delete unused variables ext4: return FIEMAP_EXTENT_UNKNOWN for delalloc extents jbd2: remove debug dependency on debug_fs and update Kconfig help text jbd2: use a single printk for jbd_debug() ...

When sync does it's WB_SYNC_ALL writeback, it issues data Io and then immediately waits for IO completion. This is done in the context of the flusher thread, and hence completely ties up the flusher thread for the backing device until all the dirty inodes have been synced. On filesystems that are dirtying inodes constantly and quickly, this means the flusher thread can be tied up for minutes per sync call and hence badly affect system level write IO performance as the page cache cannot be cleaned quickly. We already have a wait loop for IO completion for sync(2), so cut this out of the flusher thread and delegate it to wait_sb_inodes(). Hence we can do rapid IO submission, and then wait for it all to complete.

If user requests many data writes and fsync together, the last updated i_size should be stored to the inode block consistently. But, previous write_end just marks the inode as dirty and doesn't update its metadata into its inode block. After that, fsync just writes the inode block with newly updated data index excluding inode metadata updates. So, this patch introduces write_end in which updates inode block too when the i_size is changed. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

This patch removes check_prefree_segments initially designed to enhance the performance by narrowing the range of LBA usage across the whole block device. When allocating a new segment, previous f2fs tries to find proper prefree segments, and then, if finds a segment, it reuses the segment for further data or node block allocation. However, I found that this was totally wrong approach since the prefree segments have several data or node blocks that will be used by the roll-forward mechanism operated after sudden-power-off. Let's assume the following scenario. /* write 8MB with fsync */ for (i = 0; i < 2048; i++) { offset = i * 4096; write(fd, offset, 4KB); fsync(fd); } In this case, naive segment allocation sequence will be like: data segment: x, x+1, x+2, x+3 node segment: y, y+1, y+2, y+3. But, if we can reuse prefree segments, the sequence can be like: data segment: x, x+1, y, y+1 node segment: y, y+1, y+2, y+3. Because, y, y+1, and y+2 became prefree segments one by one, and those are reused by data allocation. After conducting this workload, we should consider how to recover the latest inode with its data. If we reuse the prefree segments such as y or y+1, we lost the old node blocks so that f2fs even cannot start roll-forward recovery. Therefore, I suggest that we should remove reusing prefree segments. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

Optimize the while loop condition Since this condition will always be true and while loop will be terminated by the following condition in code: if (segno >= TOTAL_SEGS(sbi)) break; Hence we can replace the while loop condition with while(1) instead of always checking for segno to be less than Total segs. Also we do not need to use TOTAL_SEGS() everytime. We can store this value in a local variable since this value is constant.

Both hole punch and truncate use ext4_ext_rm_leaf() for removing blocks. Currently we choose the last extent as the starting point for removing blocks: ex = EXT_LAST_EXTENT(eh); This is OK for truncate but for hole punch we can optimize the extent selection as the path is already initialized. We could use this information to select proper starting extent. The code change in this patch will not affect truncate as for truncate path[depth].p_ext will always be NULL.

If jbd2_journal_restart() fails the handle will have been disconnected from the current transaction. In this situation, the handle must not be used for for any jbd2 function other than jbd2_journal_stop(). Enforce this with by treating a handle which has a NULL transaction pointer as an aborted handle, and issue a kernel warning if jbd2_journal_extent(), jbd2_journal_get_write_access(), jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), etc. is called with an invalid handle. This commit also fixes a bug where jbd2_journal_stop() would trip over a kernel jbd2 assertion check when trying to free an invalid handle. Also move the responsibility of setting current->journal_info to start_this_handle(), simplifying the three users of this function.

The function mpage_released_unused_page() must only be called once; otherwise the kernel will BUG() when the second call to mpage_released_unused_page() tries to unlock the pages which had been unlocked by the first call. Also restructure the error handling so that we only give up on writing the dirty pages in the case of ENOSPC where retrying the allocation won't help. Otherwise, a transient failure, such as a kmalloc() failure in calling ext4_map_blocks() might cause us to give up on those pages, leading to a scary message in /var/log/messages plus data loss.

Once we decrement transaction->t_updates, if this is the last handle holding the transaction from closing, and once we release the t_handle_lock spinlock, it's possible for the transaction to commit and be released. In practice with normal kernels, this probably won't happen, since the commit happens in a separate kernel thread and it's unlikely this could all happen within the space of a few CPU cycles. On the other hand, with a real-time kernel, this could potentially happen, so save the tid found in transaction->t_tid before we release t_handle_lock. It would require an insane configuration, such as one where the jbd2 thread was set to a very high real-time priority, perhaps because a high priority real-time thread is trying to read or write to a file system. But some people who use real-time kernels have been known to do insane things, including controlling laser-wielding industrial robots. :-) Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

Now we maintain an proper in-order LRU list in ext4 to reclaim entries from extent status tree when we are under heavy memory pressure. For keeping this order, a spin lock is used to protect this list. But this lock burns a lot of CPU time. We can use the following steps to trigger it. % cd /dev/shm % dd if=/dev/zero of=ext4-img bs=1M count=2k % mkfs.ext4 ext4-img % mount -t ext4 -o loop ext4-img /mnt % cd /mnt % for ((i=0;i<160;i++)); do truncate -s 64g $i; done % for ((i=0;i<160;i++)); do cp $i /dev/null &; done % perf record -a -g % perf report This commit tries to fix this problem. Now a new member called i_touch_when is added into ext4_inode_info to record the last access time for an inode. Meanwhile we never need to keep a proper in-order LRU list. So this can avoid to burns some CPU time. When we try to reclaim some entries from extent status tree, we use list_sort() to get a proper in-order list. Then we traverse this list to discard some entries. In ext4_sb_info, we use s_es_last_sorted to record the last time of sorting this list. When we traverse the list, we skip the inode that is newer than this time, and move this inode to the tail of LRU list. When the head of the list is newer than s_es_last_sorted, we will sort the LRU list again. In this commit, we break the loop if s_extent_cache_cnt == 0 because that means that all extents in extent status tree have been reclaimed. Meanwhile in this commit, ext4_es_{un}register_shrinker()'s prototype is changed to save a local variable in these functions.

If memory allocation in ext4_mb_new_group_pa() is failed, it returns error code, ext4_mb_new_preallocation() propages it, but ext4_mb_new_blocks() ignores it. An observed result was: - allocation fail means ext4_mb_new_group_pa() does not update ext4_allocation_context; - ext4_mb_new_blocks() sets ext4_allocation_request->len (ar->len = ac->ac_b_ex.fe_len;) to number of blocks preallocated (512) instead of number of blocks requested (1); - that activates update cycle in ext4_splice_branch(): for (i = 1; i < blks; i++) <-- blks is 512 instead of 1 here *(where->p + i) = cpu_to_le32(current_block++); - it iterates 511 times and corrupts a chunk of memory including inode structure; - page fault happens at EXT4_SB(inode->i_sb) in ext4_mark_inode_dirty(); - system hangs with 'scheduling while atomic' BUG. The patch implements a check for ext4_mb_new_preallocation() error code and handles its failure as if ext4_mb_regular_allocator() fails.

Subtracting the number of the first data block places the superblock backups one block too early, corrupting the file system. When the block size is larger than 1K, the first data block is 0, so the subtraction has no effect and no corruption occurs.

Pull another powerpc fix from Benjamin Herrenschmidt: "I mentioned that while we had fixed the kernel crashes, EEH error recovery didn't always recover... It appears that I had a fix for that already in powerpc-next (with a stable CC). I cherry-picked it today and did a few tests and it seems that things now work quite well. The patch is also pretty simple, so I see no reason to wait before merging it." * 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc/eeh: Fix fetching bus for single-dev-PE

Pull SCSI fixes from James Bottomley: "This is a set of seven bug fixes. Several fcoe fixes for locking problems, initiator issues and a VLAN API change, all of which could eventually lead to data corruption, one fix for a qla2xxx locking problem which could lead to multiple completions of the same request (and subsequent data corruption) and a use after free in the ipr driver. Plus one minor MAINTAINERS file update" (only six bugfixes in this pull, since I had already pulled the fcoe API fix directly from Robert Love) * tag 'scsi-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi: [SCSI] ipr: Avoid target_destroy accessing memory after it was freed [SCSI] qla2xxx: Fix for locking issue between driver ISR and mailbox routines MAINTAINERS: Fix fcoe mailing list libfc: extend ex_lock to protect all of fc_seq_send libfc: Correct check for initiator role libfcoe: Fix Conflicting FCFs issue in the fabric

Revert "serial: 8250_pci: add support for another kind of NetMos Technology PCI 9835 Multi-I/O Controller" This reverts commit 8d2f8cd4. As reported by Stefan, this device already works with the parport_serial driver, so the 8250_pci driver should not also try to grab it as well.

While running Linux as guest on top of phyp, we possiblly have PE that includes single PCI device. However, we didn't return its PCI bus correctly and it leads to failure on recovery from EEH errors for single-dev-PE. The patch fixes the issue.

Pull powerpc fixes from Ben Herrenschmidt: "We discovered some breakage in our "EEH" (PCI Error Handling) code while doing error injection, due to a couple of regressions. One of them is due to a patch (37f02195 "powerpc/pci: fix PCI-e devices rescan issue on powerpc platform") that, in hindsight, I shouldn't have merged considering that it caused more problems than it solved. Please pull those two fixes. One for a simple EEH address cache initialization issue. The other one is a patch from Guenter that I had originally planned to put in 3.11 but which happens to also fix that other regression (a kernel oops during EEH error handling and possibly hotplug). With those two, the couple of test machines I've hammered with error injection are remaining up now. EEH appears to still fail to recover on some devices, so there is another problem that Gavin is looking into but at least it's no longer crashing the kernel." * 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc/pci: Improve device hotplug initialization powerpc/eeh: Add eeh_dev to the cache during boot

Due to recent changes and expecations of proper cpu bindings, there are now cases for many of the in-tree devicetrees where a WARN() will hit on boot due to badly formatted /cpus nodes. Downgrade this to a pr_warn() to be less alarmist, since it's not a new problem. Tested on Arndale, Cubox, Seaboard and Panda ES. Panda hits the WARN without this, the others do not.
