2011-08-08fuse: fix flockMiklos Szeredi3-3/+24
Commit a9ff4f87 "fuse: support BSD locking semantics" overlooked a number of issues with supporing flock locks over existing POSIX locking infrastructure: - it's not backward compatible, passing flock(2) calls to userspace unconditionally (if userspace sets FUSE_POSIX_LOCKS) - it doesn't cater for the fact that flock locks are automatically unlocked on file release - it doesn't take into account the fact that flock exclusive locks (write locks) don't need an fd opened for write. The last one invalidates the original premise of the patch that flock locks can be emulated with POSIX locks. This patch fixes the first two issues. The last one needs to be fixed in userspace if the filesystem assumed that a write lock will happen only on a file operned for write (as in the case of the current fuse library).

2011-07-20fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlersJosef Bacik3-9/+23
Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

This converts everybody to handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA properly. In some cases we just return -EINVAL, in others we do the normal generic thing, and in others we're simply making sure that the properly due-dilligence is done. For example in NFS/CIFS we need to make sure the file size is update properly for the SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA case, but since it calls the generic llseek stuff itself that is all we have to do.

2011-06-03more conservative S_NOSEC handlingAl Viro1-0/+2
Caching "we have already removed suid/caps" was overenthusiastic as merged. On network filesystems we might have had suid/caps set on another client, silently picked by this client on revalidate, all of that *without* clearing the S_NOSEC flag. AFAICS, the only reasonably sane way to deal with that is * new superblock flag; unless set, S_NOSEC is not going to be set. * local block filesystems set it in their ->mount() (more accurately, mount_bdev() does, so does btrfs ->mount(), users of mount_bdev() other than local block ones clear it) * if any network filesystem (or a cluster one) wants to use S_NOSEC, it'll need to set MS_NOSEC in sb->s_flags *AND* take care to clear S_NOSEC when inode attribute changes are picked from other clients. It's not an earth-shattering hole (anybody that can set suid on another client will almost certainly be able to write to the file before doing that anyway), but it's a bug that needs fixing.

2011-03-22mm: add replace_page_cache_page() functionMiklos Szeredi1-6/+4
This function basically does: remove_from_page_cache(old); page_cache_release(old); add_to_page_cache_locked(new); Except it does this atomically, so there's no possibility for the "add" to fail because of a race. If memory cgroups are enabled, then the memory cgroup charge is also moved from the old page to the new.

2011-01-07fs: icache RCU free inodesNick Piggin1-1/+8
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow: - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must. - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking. - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the page lock to follow page->mapping. The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts kicking over, this increases to about 20%. In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller. The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking, so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I doubt it will be a problem. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

2010-12-07fuse: separate queue for FORGET requestsMiklos Szeredi4-64/+133
Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes on a machine with lots of memory can go unresponsive for up to 30 minutes when all those inodes are evicted from the icache. The reason is that FORGET messages, sent when the inode is evicted, are queued up together with regular filesystem requests, and while the huge queue of FORGET messages are processed no other filesystem operation can proceed. Since a full fuse request structure is allocated for each inode, these take up quite a bit of memory as well. To solve these issues, create a slim 'fuse_forget_link' structure containing just the minimum of information required to send the FORGET request and chain these on a separate queue. When userspace is asking for a request make sure that FORGET and non-FORGET requests are selected fairly: for each 8 non-FORGET allow 16 FORGET requests. This will make sure FORGETs do not pile up, yet other requests are also allowed to proceed while the queued FORGETs are processed.
