2010-03-05pass writeback_control to ->write_inodeChristoph Hellwig
This gives the filesystem more information about the writeback that is happening. Trond requested this for the NFS unstable write handling, and other filesystems might benefit from this too by beeing able to distinguish between the different callers in more detail.

2010-03-05dquot: cleanup dquot initialize routineChristoph Hellwig
Get rid of the initialize dquot operation - it is now always called from the filesystem and if a filesystem really needs it's own (which none currently does) it can just call into it's own routine directly. Rename the now static low-level dquot_initialize helper to __dquot_initialize and vfs_dq_init to dquot_initialize to have a consistent namespace.

2010-03-05dquot: move dquot initialization responsibility into the filesystemChristoph Hellwig
Currently various places in the VFS call vfs_dq_init directly. This means we tie the quota code into the VFS. Get rid of that and make the filesystem responsible for the initialization. For most metadata operations this is a straight forward move into the methods, but for truncate and open it's a bit more complicated. For truncate we currently only call vfs_dq_init for the sys_truncate case because open already takes care of it for ftruncate and open(O_TRUNC) - the new code causes an additional vfs_dq_init for those which is harmless. For open the initialization is moved from do_filp_open into the open method, which means it happens slightly earlier now, and only for regular files. The latter is fine because we don't need to initialize it for operations on special files, and we already do it as part of the namespace operations for directories. Add a dquot_file_open helper that filesystems that support generic quotas can use to fill in ->open. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

Allocate uninitialized extent before ext4 buffer write and convert the extent to initialized after io completes.

2010-03-01ext4: Fix fencepost error in chosing choosing group vs file preallocation.Tao Ma
The ext4 multiblock allocator decides whether to use group or file preallocation based on the file size. When the file size reaches s_mb_stream_request (default is 16 blocks), it changes to use a file-specific preallocation. This is cool, but it has a tiny problem. See a simple script: mkfs.ext4 -b 1024 /dev/sda8 1000000 mount -t ext4 -o nodelalloc /dev/sda8 /mnt/ext4 for((i=0;i<5;i++)) do cat /mnt/4096>>/mnt/ext4/a #4096 is a file with 4096 characters. cat /mnt/4096>>/mnt/ext4/b done debuge4fs -R 'stat a' /dev/sda8|grep BLOCKS -A 1 And you get BLOCKS: (0-14):8705-8719, (15):2356, (16-19):8465-8468 So there are 3 extents, a bit strange for the lonely 15th logical block. As we write to the 16 blocks, we choose file preallocation in ext4_mb_group_or_file, but in ext4_mb_normalize_request, we meet with the 16*1024 range, so no preallocation will be carried. file b then reserves the space after '2356', so when when write 16, we start from another part. This patch just change the check in ext4_mb_group_or_file, so that for the lonely 15 we will still use group preallocation. After the patch, we will get: debuge4fs -R 'stat a' /dev/sda8|grep BLOCKS -A 1 BLOCKS: (0-15):8705-8720, (16-19):8465-8468 Looks more sane. Thanks.

2010-01-01ext4: Calculate metadata requirements more accuratelyTheodore Ts'o
In the past, ext4_calc_metadata_amount(), and its sub-functions ext4_ext_calc_metadata_amount() and ext4_indirect_calc_metadata_amount() badly over-estimated the number of metadata blocks that might be required for delayed allocation blocks. This didn't matter as much when functions which managed the reserved metadata blocks were more aggressive about dropping reserved metadata blocks as delayed allocation blocks were written, but unfortunately they were too aggressive. This was fixed in commit 0637c6f, but as a result the over-estimation by ext4_calc_metadata_amount() would lead to reserving 2-3 times the number of pending delayed allocation blocks as potentially required metadata blocks. So if there are 1 megabytes of blocks which have been not yet been allocation, up to 3 megabytes of space would get reserved out of the user's quota and from the file system free space pool until all of the inode's data blocks have been allocated. This commit addresses this problem by much more accurately estimating the number of metadata blocks that will be required. It will still somewhat over-estimate the number of blocks needed, since it must make a worst case estimate not knowing which physical blocks will be needed, but it is much more accurate than before.

2009-12-30ext4: Patch up how we claim metadata blocks for quota purposesTheodore Ts'o
As reported in Kernel Bugzilla #14936, commit d21cd8f triggered a BUG in the function ext4_da_update_reserve_space() found in fs/ext4/inode.c. The root cause of this BUG() was caused by the fact that ext4_calc_metadata_amount() can severely over-estimate how many metadata blocks will be needed, especially when using direct block-mapped files. In addition, it can also badly *under* estimate how much space is needed, since ext4_calc_metadata_amount() assumes that the blocks are contiguous, and this is not always true. If the application is writing blocks to a sparse file, the number of metadata blocks necessary can be severly underestimated by the functions ext4_da_reserve_space(), ext4_da_update_reserve_space() and ext4_da_release_space(). This was the cause of the dq_claim_space reports found on kerneloops.org. Unfortunately, doing this right means that we need to massively over-estimate the amount of free space needed. So in some cases we may need to force the inode to be written to disk asynchronously in to avoid spurious quota failures. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14936 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2009-12-29ext4: Ensure zeroout blocks have no dirty metadataAneesh Kumar K.V
This fixes a bug (found by Curt Wohlgemuth) in which new blocks returned from an extent created with ext4_ext_zeroout() can have dirty metadata still associated with them.

2009-12-25ext4: return correct wbc.nr_to_write in ext4_da_writepagesRichard Kennedy
When ext4_da_writepages increases the nr_to_write in writeback_control then it must always re-base the return value. Originally there was a (misguided) attempt prevent wbc.nr_to_write from going negative. In fact, it's necessary to allow nr_to_write to be negative so that wb_writeback() can correctly calculate how many pages were actually written.
