If CONFIG_EXT4_DEBUG is enabled, then if a block allocation fails due to disk being full, a verbose debugging message is printed, even if the malloc-debug switch has not been enabled. Suppress the debugging message so that nothing is printed unless malloc-debug has been turned on. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

In ext4_bio_write_page(), if the memory allocation for the struct ext4_io_page fails, it returns with the page's PageWriteback flag set. This will end up causing the page not to skip writeback in WB_SYNC_NONE mode, and in WB_SYNC_ALL mode (i.e., on a sync, fsync, or umount) the writeback daemon will get stuck forever on the wait_on_page_writeback() function in write_cache_pages_da(). Or, if journalling is enabled and the file gets deleted, it the journal thread can get stuck in journal_finish_inode_data_buffers() call to filemap_fdatawait(). Another place where things can get hung up is in truncate_inode_pages(), called out of ext4_evict_inode(). Fix this by not setting PageWriteback until after we have successfully allocated the struct ext4_io_page. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

If we have accumulated a contiguous region of memory to be written out, and the next page can added to this region, don't bother locking (and then unlocking the page) before writing out the memory. In the unlikely event that the next page was being written back by some other CPU, we can also skip waiting that page to finish writeback. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Because the ext4 page writeback codepath had been prematurely calling clear_page_dirty_for_io(), if it turned out that a particular page couldn't be written out during a particular pass of write_cache_pages_da(), the page would have to get redirtied by calling redirty_pages_for_writeback(). Not only was this wasted work, but redirty_page_for_writeback() would increment wbc->pages_skipped to signal to writeback_sb_inodes() that buffers were locked, and that it should skip this inode until later. Since this signal was incorrect in ext4's case --- which was caused by ext4's historically incorrect use of write_cache_pages() --- ext4_da_writepages() saved and restored wbc->skipped_pages to avoid confusing writeback_sb_inodes(). Now that we've fixed ext4 to call clear_page_dirty_for_io() right before initiating the page I/O, we can nuke the page_skipped save/restore hackery, and breathe a sigh of relief.

Move when we call clear_page_dirty_for_io() to just before we actually write the page. This simplifies the code somewhat, and avoids marking pages as clean and then needing to remark them as dirty later. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

If ext4_da_block_invalidatepages() is called because of a failure from ext4_map_blocks() in mpage_da_map_and_submit(), it's supposed to clean up -- including unlock -- all the pages in the mpd structure. But these values may not match up, even on a system in which block size == page size: mpd->b_blocknr != mpd->first_page mpd->b_size != (mpd->next_page - mpd->first_page) ext4_da_block_invalidatepages() has been using b_blocknr and b_size; this patch changes it to use first_page and next_page. Tested: I injected a small number (5%) of failures in ext4_map_blocks() in the case that the flags contain EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE, and ran fsstress on this kernel. Without this patch, I got hung tasks every time. With this patch, I see no hangs in many runs of fsstress.

In mpage_da_map_and_submit(), if we have a delayed block allocation failure from ext4_map_blocks(), we need to mark the IO as complete, by setting mpd->io_done = 1; Otherwise, we could end up submitting the pages in an outer loop; since they are unlocked on mapping failure in ext4_da_block_invalidatepages(), this will cause a bug check in mpage_da_submit_io(). I tested this by injected failures into ext4_map_blocks(). Without this patch, a simple fsstress run will bug check; with the patch, it works fine.

In ext4_mb_check_group_pa(), the current preallocation space is replaced with a new preallocation space when the two have the same distance from the goal block. This doesn't actually gain us anything, so change things so that the function only switches to the new preallocation group if its distance from the goal block is strictly smaller than the current preallocaiton group's distance from the goal block.

There's no good reason to require the extra step of providing a mount option for acl or user_xattr once the feature is configured on; no other filesystem that I know of requires this. Userspace patches have set these options in default mount options, and this patch makes them default in the kernel. At some point we can start to deprecate the options, perhaps. For now I've removed default mount option checks in show_options() to be explicit about what's set, since it's changing the default, but I'm open to alternatives if desired.

Discard granularity tells us the minimum size of extent that can be discarded by the device. If the user supplies a minimum extent that should be discarded (range.minlen) which is smaller than the discard granularity, increase minlen to the discard granularity, since there's no point submitting trim requests that the device will reject anyway.

For a device that does not support discard, the FITRIM ioctl returns -EOPNOTSUPP when blkdev_issue_discard() returns this error code, which is how the user is informed that the device does not support discard. If there are no suitable free extents to be trimmed, then FITRIM will return success even though the device does not support discard, which could confuse the user. So check explicitly if the device supports discard and return an error code at the beginning of the FITRIM ioctl processing.

I cannot disable inode-read-ahead feature of ext4 (on 2.6.37): # echo 0 > /sys/fs/ext4/sda2/inode_readahead_blks bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument On a server with lots of small files and random access this read-ahead makes performance worse, and I'd like to disable it. I work around this problem by using value of 1, but it still reads an extra block. This patch fixes the problem by checking for zero explicitly. Signed-off-by: Alexander V.

When Al moved the nameidata_dentry_drop_rcu_maybe() call into the do_follow_link function in commit 844a3917 ("nothing in do_follow_link() is going to see RCU"), he mistakenly left the BUG_ON(inode != path->dentry->d_inode); behind. Which would otherwise be ok, but that BUG_ON() really needs to be _after_ dropping RCU, since the dentry isn't necessarily stable otherwise. So complete the code movement in that commit, and move the BUG_ON() into do_follow_link() too. This means that we need to pass in 'inode' as an argument (just for this one use), but that's a small thing. And eventually we may be confident enough in our path lookup that we can just remove the BUG_ON() and the unnecessary inode argument.

Add an m68k/coldfire optimized memmove() function for the m68knommu arch. This is the same function as used by m68k. Simple speed tests show this is faster once buffers are larger than 4 bytes, and significantly faster on much larger buffers (4 times faster above about 100 bytes). This also goes part of the way to fixing a regression caused by commit ea61bc46 ("m68k/m68knommu: merge MMU and non-MMU string.h"), which breaks non-coldfire non-mmu builds (which is the 68x328 and 68360 families).
