btrfs_raid_array[] is used to define all raid attributes, use it to get tolerated_failures in btrfs_get_num_tolerated_disk_barrier_failures(), instead of complex condition in function. It can make code simple and auto-support other possible raid-type in future.

Zhao Lei authored
This array is used to record attributes of each raid type, make it public, and many functions will benifit with this array. For example, num_tolerated_disk_barrier_failures(), we can avoid complex conditions in this function, and get raid attribute simply by accessing above array. It can also make code logic simple, reduce duplication code, and increase maintainability.

Just call kmem_cache_zalloc() instead of calling kmem_cache_alloc(). We're just initializing most fields to 0, false and NULL later on _anyway_, so to make the code mode readable and potentially gain a bit of performance (completely untested claim), we should fill our btrfs_trans_handle with zeros on allocation then just initialize those five remaining fields (not counting the list_heads) as normal.

old_len is used to store the return value of btrfs_item_size_nr(). The return value of btrfs_item_size_nr() is of type u32. To improve code correctness and avoid mixing signed and unsigned integers I've changed old_len to be of type u32 as well.

Leandro Awa writes: "After switching to version 4.1.6, our parallelized and distributed workflows now fail consistently with errors of the form: T34: ./regex.c:39:22: error: config.h: No such file or directory From our 'git bisect' testing, the following commit appears to be the possible cause of the behavior we've been seeing: commit 766c4cbf" Al Viro says: "What happens is that 766c4cbf got the things subtly wrong. We used to treat d_is_negative() after lookup_fast() as "fall with ENOENT". That was wrong - checking ->d_flags outside of ->d_seq protection is unreliable and failing with hard error on what should've fallen back to non-RCU pathname resolution is a bug. Unfortunately, we'd pulled the test too far up and ran afoul of another kind of staleness. The dentry might have been absolutely stable from the RCU point of view (and we might be on UP, etc), but stale from the remote fs point of view. If ->d_revalidate() returns "it's actually stale", dentry gets thrown away and the original code wouldn't even have looked at its ->d_flags. What we need is to check ->d_flags where 766c4cbf does (prior to ->d_seq validation) but only use the result in cases where we do not discard this dentry outright" Reported-by: Leandro Awa <lawa@nvidia.com> Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104911 Fixes: 766c4cbf ("namei: d_is_negative() should be checked...")

The cleaner policy doesn't make use of the per cache block hint space in the metadata (unlike the other policies). When switching from the cleaner policy to mq or smq a NULL pointer crash (in dm_tm_new_block) was observed. The crash was caused by bugs in dm-cache-metadata.c when trying to skip creation of the hint btree. The minimal fix is to change hint size for the cleaner policy to 4 bytes (only hint size supported).
