2005-07-25JFS: Don't set log_SYNCBARRIER when log->active == 0Dave Kleikamp
If a metadata page is kept active, it is possible that the sync barrier logic continues to trigger, even if all active transactions have been phyically written to the journal. This can cause a hang, since the completion of the journal I/O is what unsets the sync barrier flag to allow new transactions to be created. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>

2005-07-15JFS: fsync wrong behavior when I/O failure occursQu Fuping
This is half of a patch that Qu Fuping submitted in April. The first part was applied to fs/mpage.c in 2.6.12-rc4. jfs_fsync should return error, but it doesn't wait for the metadata page to be uptodate, e.g.: jfs_fsync->jfs_commit_inode->txCommit->diWrite->read_metapage-> __get_metapage->read_cache_page reads a page from disk. Because read is async, when read_cache_page: err = filler(data, page), filler will not return error, it just submits I/O request and returns. So, page is not uptodate. Checking only if(IS_ERROR(mp->page)) is not enough, we should add "|| !PageUptodate(mp->page)" Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>

2005-07-13JFS: Need to be root to create files with security contextIan Dall
It turns out this is due to some inverted logic in xattr.c Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
2005-07-13JFS: Allow security.* xattrs to be set on symlinksDave Kleikamp
All of the different xattr namespaces have different rules. user.* and ACL's are not allowed on symlinks, and since these were the first xattrs implemented, I assumed there was no need to support xattrs on symlinks. This one-line patch should fix it. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>

2005-06-27JFS: Code cleanup - getting rid of never-used debug codeDave Kleikamp
I'm finally getting around to cleaning out debug code that I've never used. There has always been code ifdef'ed out by _JFS_DEBUG_DMAP, _JFS_DEBUG_IMAP, _JFS_DEBUG_DTREE, and _JFS_DEBUG_XTREE, which I have personally never used, and I doubt that anyone has since the design stage back in OS/2. There is also a function, xtGather, that has never been used, and I don't know why it was ever there. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
2005-06-26[PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezingChristoph Lameter
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h: frozen(process) Check for frozen process freezing(process) Check if a process is being frozen freeze(process) Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator) thaw_process(process) Restart process frozen_process(process) Process is frozen now 2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all kernel sources except sched.h 3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver 4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN). This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe! Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-23JFS: performance patchSonny Rao
Basically, we saw a large amount of time spent in the jfs_strfromUCS_le() function, mispredicting the branch inside the loop, so I just added some unlikely modifiers to the if statements to re-ordered the code. Again, these simple changes provided > 2 % on spec-sfs, so please consider it for inclusion. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>

2005-05-03[PATCH] JFS: Don't allocate extents that overlap existing extentsDave Kleikamp
Modify xtSearch so that it returns the next allocated block when the requested block is unmapped. This can be used to make sure we don't create a new extent that overlaps the next one. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-03[PATCH] JFS: Write journal sync points more oftenDave Kleikamp
This patch adds jfs_syncpt, which calls lmLogSync to write sync points to the journal both in jfs_sync_fs and when sync barrier processing completes. lmLogSync accomplishes two things: 1) it pushes logged-but-dirty metadata pages to disk, and 2) it writes a sync record to the journal so that jfs_fsck doesn't need to replay more transactions than is necessary.

2005-05-03[PATCH] JFS: Simplify creation of new iagDave Kleikamp
JFS was creating a new IAG (inode aggregate group) in one address space, and afterwards, accessing it from another. This could lead to complications when cache pages contain more than one page of jfs metadata. This patch causes the IAG to be initialized in the same address space that it is subsequently accessed with. This also elimitates an I/O, but IAG's aren't created too often.

2005-05-03[PATCH] JFS: reduce number of synchronous transactionsDave Kleikamp
Use an inline pxd list rather than an xad list in the xadlock. When the number of extents being modified can fit with the xadlock, a transaction can be committed asynchronously. Using a list of pxd's instead of xad's allows us to fit 4 extents, rather than 2. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
