I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by
SLAB.
I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.
I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free. That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.
Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code
in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree).
There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.
This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.

This patch provides a new macro
KMEM_CACHE(<struct>, <flags>)
to simplify slab creation. KMEM_CACHE creates a slab with the name of the
struct, with the size of the struct and with the alignment of the struct.
Additional slab flags may be specified if necessary.
Example
struct test_slab {
int a,b,c;
struct list_head;
} __cacheline_aligned_in_smp;
test_slab_cache = KMEM_CACHE(test_slab, SLAB_PANIC)
will create a new slab named "test_slab" of the size sizeof(struct
test_slab) and aligned to the alignment of test slab. If it fails then we
panic.

Remove duplicate work in kill_bdev().
It currently invalidates and then truncates the bdev's mapping.
invalidate_mapping_pages() will opportunistically remove pages from the
mapping. And truncate_inode_pages() will forcefully remove all pages.
The only thing truncate doesn't do is flush the bh lrus. So do that
explicitly. This avoids (very unlikely) but possible invalid lookup
results if the same bdev is quickly re-issued.
It also will prevent extreme kernel latencies which are observed when
blockdevs which have a large amount of pagecache are unmounted, by avoiding
invalidate_mapping_pages() on that path. invalidate_mapping_pages() has no
cond_resched (it can be called under spinlock), whereas truncate_inode_pages()
has one.

If we add a new flag so that we can distinguish between the first page and the
tail pages then we can avoid to use page->private in the first page.
page->private == page for the first page, so there is no real information in
there.
Freeing up page->private makes the use of compound pages more transparent.
They become more usable like real pages. Right now we have to be careful f.e.
if we are going beyond PAGE_SIZE allocations in the slab on i386 because we
can then no longer use the private field. This is one of the issues that
cause us not to support debugging for page size slabs in SLAB.
Having page->private available for SLUB would allow more meta information in
the page struct. I can probably avoid the 16 bit ints that I have in there
right now.
Also if page->private is available then a compound page may be equipped with
buffer heads. This may free up the way for filesystems to support larger
blocks than page size.
We add PageTail as an alias of PageReclaim. Compound pages cannot currently
be reclaimed. Because of the alias one needs to check PageCompound first.

Adds /proc/pid/clear_refs. When any non-zero number is written to this file,
pte_mkold() and ClearPageReferenced() is called for each pte and its
corresponding page, respectively, in that task's VMAs. This file is only
writable by the user who owns the task.
It is now possible to measure _approximately_ how much memory a task is using
by clearing the reference bits with
echo 1 > /proc/pid/clear_refs
and checking the reference count for each VMA from the /proc/pid/smaps output
at a measured time interval. For example, to observe the approximate change
in memory footprint for a task, write a script that clears the references
(echo 1 > /proc/pid/clear_refs), sleeps, and then greps for Pgs_Referenced and
extracts the size in kB. Add the sizes for each VMA together for the total
referenced footprint. Moments later, repeat the process and observe the
difference.
For example, using an efficient Mozilla:
accumulated time referenced memory
---------------- -----------------
0 s 408 kB
1 s 408 kB
2 s 556 kB
3 s 1028 kB
4 s 872 kB
5 s 1956 kB
6 s 416 kB
7 s 1560 kB
8 s 2336 kB
9 s 1044 kB
10 s 416 kB
This is a valuable tool to get an approximate measurement of the memory
footprint for a task.

The new struct pmd_walker includes the struct vm_area_struct of the memory to
walk over. Iteration begins at the vma->vm_start and completes at
vma->vm_end. A pointer to another data structure may be stored in the private
field such as struct mem_size_stats, which acts as the smaps accumulator. For
each pmd in the VMA, the action function is called with a pointer to its
struct vm_area_struct, a pointer to the pmd_t, its start and end addresses,
and the private field.
The interface for walking pmd's in a VMA for fs/proc/task_mmu.c is now:
void for_each_pmd(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
void (*action)(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
pmd_t *pmd, unsigned long addr,
unsigned long end,
void *private),
void *private);
Since the pmd walker is now extracted from the smaps code, smaps_one_pmd() is
invoked for each pmd in the VMA. Its behavior and efficiency is identical to
the existing implementation.

In the case where the block we find in the first step has B_QUEUED set,
we bypass the vfs_test_lock entirely, instead using the block to decide how
to respond:
with nlm_lck_denied if B_TIMED_OUT is set.

Acquiring a lock on a cluster filesystem may require communication with
remote hosts, and to avoid blocking lockd or nfsd threads during such
communication, we allow the results to be returned asynchronously.
When a ->lock() call needs to block, the file system will return
-EINPROGRESS, and then later return the results with a call to the
routine in the fl_grant field of the lock_manager_operations struct.
This differs from the case when ->lock returns -EAGAIN to a blocking
lock request; in that case, the filesystem calls fl_notify when the lock
is granted, and the caller retries the original lock. So while
fl_notify is merely a hint to the caller that it should retry, fl_grant
actually communicates the final result of the lock operation (with the
lock already acquired in the succesful case).
Therefore fl_grant takes a lock, a status and, for the test lock case, a
conflicting lock. We also allow fl_grant to return an error to the
filesystem, to handle the case where the fl_grant requests arrives after
the lock manager has already given up waiting for it.

The recent change to "allow Windows blocking locks to be cancelled via a
CANCEL_LOCK call" introduced a new semaphore in struct cifsFileInfo,
lock_sem. However, semaphores used as mutexes are deprecated these days,
and there's no reason to add a new one to the kernel. Therefore, convert
lock_sem to a struct mutex (and also fix one indentation glitch on one of

There are flags to enable two specialized features in the dlm:
1. CONVDEADLK causes the dlm to resolve conversion deadlocks internally by
changing the granted mode of locks to NL.
2. ALTPR/ALTCW cause the dlm to change the requested mode of locks to PR
or CW to grant them if the normal requested mode can't be granted.
GFS direct i/o exercises both of these features, especially when mixed
with buffered i/o. The dlm has problems with them.
The first problem is on the master node. If it demotes a lock as a part of
converting it, the actual step of converting the lock isn't being done
after the demotion, the lock is just left sitting on the granted queue
with a granted mode of NL. I think the mistaken assumption was that the
call to grant_pending_locks() would grant it, but that function naturally
doesn't look at locks on the granted queue.
The second problem is on the process node. If the master either demotes
or gives an altmode, the munging of the gr/rq modes is never done in the
process copy of the lock, leaving the master/process copies out of sync.

The current code keeps the glock information in:

With the patch, the new code keeps the glock information in:
/debug/gfs2/<fs>/glock
That will allow us to create more debugfs files in the future.
3. This fixes a bug whereby a failed mount attempt causes the

A lock id is a uint32 and is used as an opaque reference to the lock. For
userland apps, the lkid is passed up, through libdlm, as the return value
from a write() on the dlm device. This created a problem when the high
bit was 1, making the lkid look like an error. This is fixed by changing
how the lkid is composed. The low 16 bits identified the hash bucket for
the lock and the high 16 bits were a per-bucket counter (which eventually
hit 0x8000 causing the problem). These are simply swapped around; the
number of hash table buckets is far below 0x8000, making all lkid's
positive when viewed as signed.

Full cancel and force-unlock support. In the past, cancel and force-unlock
wouldn't work if there was another operation in progress on the lock. Now,
both cancel and unlock-force can overlap an operation on a lock, meaning there
may be 2 or 3 operations in progress on a lock in parallel. This support is
important not only because cancel and force-unlock are explicit operations
that an app can use, but both are used implicitly when a process exits while
holding locks.
Summary of changes:
- add-to and remove-from waiters functions were rewritten to handle situations
with more than one remote operation outstanding on a lock
- validate_unlock_args detects when an overlapping cancel/unlock-force
can be sent and when it needs to be delayed until a request/lookup
reply is received
- processing request/lookup replies detects when cancel/unlock-force
occured during the op, and carries out the delayed cancel/unlock-force
- manipulation of the "waiters" (remote operation) state of a lock moved under
the standard rsb mutex that protects all the other lock state
- the two recovery routines related to locks on the waiters list changed
according to the way lkb's are now locked before accessing waiters state
- waiters recovery detects when lkb's being recovered have overlapping
cancel/unlock-force, and may not recover such locks
- revert_lock (cancel) returns a value to distinguish cases where it did
nothing vs cases where it actually did a cancel; the cancel completion ast
should only be done when cancel did something
- orphaned locks put on new list so they can be found later for purging
- cancel must be called on a lock when making it an orphan
- flag user locks (ENDOFLIFE) at the end of their useful life (to the
application) so we can return an error for any further cancel/unlock-force
- we weren't setting COMP/BAST ast flags if one was already set, so we'd lose
either a completion or blocking ast
- clear an unread bast on a lock that's become unlocked

In Testing the previously posted and accepted patch for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=228540
I uncovered some gfs2 badness. It turns out that the current
gfs2 code saves off a process pointer when glocks is taken
in both the glock and glock holder structures. Those
structures will persist in memory long after the process has
ended; pointers to poisoned memory.
This problem isn't caused by the 228540 fix; the new capability
introduced by the fix just uncovered the problem.
I wrote this patch that avoids saving process pointers
and instead saves off the process pid. Rather than
referencing the bad pointers, it now does process lookups.
There is special code that makes the output nicer for
printing holder information for processes that have ended.
This patch also adds a stub for the new "sprint_symbol"
function that exists in Andrew Morton's -mm patch set, but

This is a fix for bz #208514. When GFS2 frees up space, the freed blocks
aren't available for reuse until the resource group is successfully written
to the ondisk journal. So in rare cases, GFS2 operations will fail, saying
that the filesystem is out of space, when in reality, you are just waiting for
a log flush. For instance, on a 1Gig filesystem, if I continually write 10 Mb
to a file, and then truncate it, after a hundred interations, the write will
fail with -ENOSPC, even though the filesystem is just 1% full.
The attached patch calls a log flush in these cases. I tested this patch
fairly heavily to check if there were any locking issues that I missed, and
it seems to work just fine. Also, this patch only does the log flush if
get_local_rgrp makes a complete loop of resource groups without skipping
any do to locking issues. The code would be slightly simpler if it just always
did the log flush after the first failed pass, and you could only ever have
to go through the loop twice, instead of up to three times. However, I guessed
that failing to find a rg simply do to locking issues would be common enough
to skip the log flush in that case, but I'm not certain that this is the right
way to go. Either way, I don't suppose this code will be hit all that often.

This patch prevents the printing of a warning message in cases where
the fs is functioning normally by handing off responsibility for
unlinked, but still open inodes, to another node for eventual deallocation.
Also, there is now an improved system for ensuring that such requests
to other nodes do not get lost. The callback on the iopen lock is
only ever called when i_nlink == 0 and when a node is unable to deallocate
it due to it still being in use on another node. When a node receives
the callback therefore, it knows that i_nlink must be zero, so we mark
it as such (in gfs2_drop_inode) in order that it will then attempt
deallocation of the inode itself.
As an additional benefit, queuing a demote request no longer requires
a memory allocation. This simplifies the code for dealing with gfs2_holders
as it removes one special case.
There are two new fields in struct gfs2_glock. gl_demote_state is the
state which the remote node has requested and gl_demote_time is the
time when the request came in. Both fields are only valid when the
GLF_DEMOTE flag is set in gl_flags.

If we are writing a file, and in the middle of writing the file
another node attempts to get a shared lock on that file (by doing a du for
example) the process doing the writing will hang waiting on lock_page. The
reason for this is because when we have waiters on a exclusive glock, we will go
through and flush out all dirty pages associated with that inode and release the
lock. The problem is that when we flush the dirty pages, we could hit a page
that we have locked durring the generic_file_buffered_write part of this
operation. This patch unlocks the page before we go to dequeue the lock and
locks it immediatly afterwards, since generic_file_buffered_write needs the page
locked when the commit_write is completed. This patch resolves the problem,
however if somebody sees a better way to do this please don't hesistate to yell.

Try running this script in an NFS mounted directory (Client relatively
recent - 2.6.18 has the problem as does 2.6.20).
------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
#
# This script will produce the following errormessage from tar:
#
# tar: newdir/innerdir/innerfile: file changed as we read it
# create dirs
rm -rf nfstest
mkdir -p nfstest/dir/innerdir
# create files (should not be empty)
echo "Hello World!" >nfstest/dir/file
echo "Hello World!" >nfstest/dir/innerdir/innerfile
# problem only happens if we sleep before chmod
sleep 1
# change file modes
chmod -R a+r nfstest
# rename dir
mv nfstest/dir nfstest/newdir
# tar it
tar -cf nfstest/nfstest.tar -C nfstest newdir
# restore old dir name
mv nfstest/newdir nfstest/dir
--------------------------------------------------------
What happens:
The 'chmod -R' does a readdir_plus in each directory and the results
get cached in the page cache. It then updates the ctime on each file
by one second. When this happens, the post-op attributes are used to
update the ctime stored on the client to match the value in the kernel.
The 'mv' calls shrink_dcache_parent on the directory tree which
flushes all the dentries (so a new lookup will be required) but
doesn't flush the inodes or pagecache.
The 'tar' does a readdir on each directory, but (in the case of
'innerdir' at least) satisfies it from the pagecache and uses the
READDIRPLUS data to update all the inodes. In the case of
'innerdir/innerfile', the ctime is out of date.
'tar' then calls 'lstat' on innerdir/innerfile getting an old ctime.
It then opens the file (triggering a GETATTR), reads the content, and
then calls fstat to see if anything has changed. It finds that ctime
has changed and so complains.
The problem seems to be that the cache readdirplus info is kept around
for too long.
My patch below discards pagecache data for directories when
dentry_iput is called on them. This effectively removes the symptom
which convinces me that I correctly understand the problem. However
I'm not convinced that is a proper solution, as there could easily be
other races that trigger the same problem without being affected by
this 'fix'.
One possibility would be to require that readdirplus pagecache data be
only used *once* to instantiate an inode. Somehow it should then be
invalidated so that if the dentry subsequently disappears, it will
cause a new request to the server to fill in the stat data.
Another possibility is to compare the cache_change_attribute on the
inode with something similar for the readdirplus info and reject the
info from readdirplus if it is too old.
I haven't tried to implement these and would value other opinions
before I do.

Don't use uninitialsed value for fattr->time_start in readdirplus results.
The 'fattr' structure filled in by nfs3_decode_direct does not get a
value for ->time_start set.
Thus if an entry is for an inode that we already have in cache,
when nfs_readdir_lookup calls nfs_fhget, it will call nfs_refresh_inode
and may update the inode with out-of-date information.
Directories are read a page at a time, so each page could have a
different timestamp that "should" be used to set the time_start for
the fattr for info in that page. However storing the timestamp per
page is awkward. (We could stick in the first 4 bytes and only read 4092
bytes, but that is a bigger code change than I am interested it).
This patch ignores the readdir_plus attributes if a readdir finds the
information already in cache, and otherwise sets ->time_start to the time
the readdir request was sent to the server.
It might be nice to store - in the directory inode - the time stamp for
the earliest readdir request that is still in the page cache, so that we
don't ignore attribute data that we don't have to. This patch doesn't do

READDIRPLUS can be a performance hindrance when the client is working with
large directories. In addition, some servers still have bugs in their
implementations (e.g. Tru64 returns wrong values for the fsid).
Add a mount flag to enable users to turn it off at mount time following the

The RPC buffer size estimation logic in net/sunrpc/clnt.c always
significantly overestimates the requirements for the buffer size.
A little instrumentation demonstrated that in fact rpc_malloc was never
allocating the buffer from the mempool, but almost always called kmalloc.
To compute the size of the RPC buffer more precisely, split p_bufsiz into
two fields; one for the argument size, and one for the result size.
Then, compute the sum of the exact call and reply header sizes, and split
the RPC buffer precisely between the two. That should keep almost all RPC
buffers within the 2KiB buffer mempool limit.
And, we can finally be rid of RPC_SLACK_SPACE!

NLM version 4 requests estimate the call and reply header sizes rather
conservatively, using the very maximum size allowed in the protocol even
though Linux always uses only a small fraction of the allowable space.
Reduce the size of caller and lock arguments to conserve RPC buffer space
while XDR encoding NLM4 arguments. Add compile-time checks to ensure the
hostname string won't overflow NLM protocol maximums.

Currently we do write coalescing in a very inefficient manner: one pass in
generic_writepages() in order to lock the pages for writing, then one pass
in nfs_flush_mapping() and/or nfs_sync_mapping_wait() in order to gather
the locked pages for coalescing into RPC requests of size "wsize".
In fact, it turns out there is actually a deadlock possible here since we
only start I/O on the second pass. If the user signals the process while
we're in nfs_sync_mapping_wait(), for instance, then we may exit before
starting I/O on all the requests that have been queued up.

When CIFS Unix Extensions are negotiated we get the Unix uid and gid
owners of the file from the server (on the Unix Query Path Info
levels), but if the server's uids don't match the client uid's users
were having to disable the Unix Extensions (which turned off features
they still wanted). The changeset patch allows users to override uid
and/or gid for file/directory owner with a default uid and/or gid
specified at mount (as is often done when mounting from Linux cifs
client to Windows server). This changeset also displays the uid
and gid used by default in /proc/mounts (if applicable).
Also cleans up code by adding some of the missing spaces after
"if" keywords per-kernel style guidelines (as suggested by Randy Dunlap
when he reviewed the patch).

Currently we scale the mempool sizes depending on memory installed
in the machine, except for the bio pool itself which sits at a fixed
256 entry pre-allocation.
There's really no point in "optimizing" this OOM path, we just need
enough preallocated to make progress. A single unit is enough, lets
scale it down to 2 just to be on the safe side.
This patch saves ~150kb of pinned kernel memory on a 32-bit box.

Prevent permission checking from being performed when the kernel wants to

of lookup_one_len(), lookup_one_len_kern().
Additionally, as sysfs_remove_group() does not check the return value of
the lookup before using it, a BUG_ON has been added to pinpoint the cause
of any problems potentially caused by this (and as a form of annotation).

The extent map code was ripped out earlier because of an inability to deal
with holes. This patch adds back a simpler caching scheme requiring far less
code.
Our old extent map caching was designed back when meta data block caching in
Ocfs2 didn't work very well, resulting in many disk reads. These days our
metadata caching is much better, resulting in no un-necessary disk reads. As
a result, extent caching doesn't have to be as fancy, nor does it have to
cache as many extents. Keeping the last 3 extents seen should be sufficient
to give us a small performance boost on some streaming workloads.
