2013-07-13ext4: don't allow ext4_free_blocks() to fail due to ENOMEMTheodore Ts'o
The filesystem should not be marked inconsistent if ext4_free_blocks() is not able to allocate memory. Unfortunately some callers (most notably ext4_truncate) don't have a way to reflect an error back up to the VFS. And even if we did, most userspace applications won't deal with most system calls returning ENOMEM anyway.

2013-07-01ext4: implement error handling of ext4_mb_new_preallocation()Alexey Khoroshilov
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.

2013-06-12ext4: add cond_resched() to ext4_free_blocks() & ext4_mb_regular_allocator()Theodore Ts'o
For a file systems with a very large number of block groups, if all of the block group bitmaps are in memory and the file system is relatively badly fragmented, it's possible ext4_mb_regular_allocator() to take a long time trying to find a good match. This is especially true if the tuning parameter mb_max_to_scan has been sent to a very large number. So add a cond_resched() to avoid soft lockup warnings and to provide better system responsiveness. For ext4_free_blocks(), if we are deleting a large range of blocks, and data=journal is enabled so that EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET is passed, the loop to call sb_find_get_block() and to call ext4_forget() can take over 10-15 milliseocnds or more. So it's better to add a cond_resched() here a well. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2013-05-05ext4: limit group search loop for non-extent filesLachlan McIlroy
In the case where we are allocating for a non-extent file, we must limit the groups we allocate from to those below 2^32 blocks, and ext4_mb_regular_allocator() attempts to do this initially by putting a cap on ngroups for the subsequent search loop. However, the initial target group comes in from the allocation context (ac), and it may already be beyond the artificially limited ngroups. In this case, the limit if (group == ngroups) group = 0; at the top of the loop is never true, and the loop will run away. Catch this case inside the loop and reset the search to start at group 0.

2013-04-09ext4: speed-up releasing blocks on commitAndrey Sidorov
Improve mb_free_blocks speed by clearing entire range at once instead of iterating over each bit. Freeing block-by-block also makes buddy bitmap subtree flip twice making most of the work a no-op. Very few bits in buddy bitmap require change, e.g. freeing entire group is a 1 bit flip only. As a result, releasing blocks of 60G file now takes 5ms instead of 2.7s.

2013-02-09ext4: use module parameters instead of debugfs for mballoc_debugTheodore Ts'o
There are multiple reasons to move away from debugfs. First of all, we are only using it for a single parameter, and it is much more complicated to set up (some 30 lines of code compared to 3), and one more thing that might fail while loading the ext4 module. Secondly, as a module paramter it can be specified as a boot option if ext4 is built into the kernel, or as a parameter when the module is loaded, and it can also be manipulated dynamically under /sys/module/ext4/parameters/mballoc_debug. So it is more flexible. Ultimately we want to move away from using mb_debug() towards tracepoints, but for now this is still a useful simplification of the code base. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2013-02-04ext4: optimize mballoc for large allocationsTheodore Ts'o
The ext4 block allocator only maintains buddy bitmaps for chunks which are less than or equal to one quarter of a block group. That is, for a file aystem with a 1k blocksize, and where the number of blocks in a block group is 8192 blocks, the largest chunk size tracked by buddy bitmaps is 2048 blocks. For a file system with a 4k blocksize, and where the number of blocks in a block group is 32768 blocks, the largest chunk size tracked by buddy bitmaps is 8192 blocks. To work around this code, mballoc.c before this commit would truncate allocation requests to the number of blocks in a block group minus 10. Why 10? Aside from being a completely arbitrary number, it avoids block allocation to be a power of two larger than 25% of the block group. If you try to explicitly fallocate 50% of the block group size, this will demonstrate the problem; the block allocation code will scan the all of the blocks in the file system with cr==0 (since the request is for a natural power of two), but then completely fail for all blocks groups, since the buddy bitmaps don't track chunk sizes of 50% of the block group. To fix this, in these we use ext4_mb_complex_scan_group() instead of ext4_mb_simple_scan_group(). Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Andreas Dilger <adilger@dilger.ca>

Currently ext4_mb_load_buddy is called for every group, irrespective of whether the group info is already in memory, while reading /proc/fs/ext4/<partition>/mb_groups proc file. For the purpose of mb_groups proc file, it is unnecessary to load the file group info from disk if it was loaded in past. These calls to ext4_mb_load_buddy make reading the mb_groups proc file expensive. Also, the locks around ext4_get_group_info are not required.

We can't have references held on pages in the s_buddy_cache while we are trying to truncate its pages and put the inode. All the pages must be gone before we reach clear_inode. This can only be gauranteed if we can prevent new users from grabbing references to s_buddy_cache's pages. The original bug can be reproduced and the bug fix can be verified by: while true; do mount -t ext4 /dev/ram0 /export/hda3/ram0; \ umount /export/hda3/ram0; done & while true; do cat /proc/fs/ext4/ram0/mb_groups; done Signed-off-by: Salman Qazi <sqazi@google.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org

2012-04-29ext4: make block group checksums use metadata_csum algorithmDarrick J. Wong
metadata_csum supersedes uninit_bg. Convert the ROCOMPAT uninit_bg flag check to a helper function that covers both, and make the checksum calculation algorithm use either crc16 or the metadata_csum chosen algorithm depending on which flag is set. Print a warning if we try to mount a filesystem with both feature flags set. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2012-03-21ext4: always set then trimmed blocks count into lenLukas Czerner
Currently if the range to trim is too small, for example on 1K fs the request to trim the first block, then the 'range->len' is not set reporting wrong number of discarded block to the caller. Fix this by always setting the 'range->len' before we return. Note that when there is a failure (-EINVAL) caller can not depend on 'range->len' being set properly.

2012-03-21ext4: fix trimmed block count accuntingLukas Czerner
Currently when there is not enough free blocks in the block group to discard (grp->bb_free < minlen) the 'trimmed' is bumped up anyway with the number of discarded blocks from the previous iteration. Fix this by bumping up 'trimmed' only if the ext4_trim_all_free() was actually run.

2012-03-21ext4: fix start and len arguments handling in ext4_trim_fs()Lukas Czerner
The overflow can happen when we are calling get_group_no_and_offset() which stores the group number in the ext4_grpblk_t type which is actually int. However when the blocknr is big enough the group number might be bigger than ext4_grpblk_t resulting in overflow. This will most likely happen with FITRIM default argument len = ULLONG_MAX. Fix this by using "end" variable instead of "start+len" as it is easier to get right and specifically check that the end is not beyond the end of the file system, so we are sure that the result of get_group_no_and_offset() will not overflow. Otherwise truncate it to the size of the file system. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
