2014-10-01xfs: kill time.hDave Chinner
The typedef for timespecs and nanotime() are completely unnecessary, and delay() can be moved to fs/xfs/linux.h, which means this file can go away. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>
2014-03-07xfs: use NOIO contexts for vm_map_ramDave Chinner
When we map pages in the buffer cache, we can do so in GFP_NOFS contexts. However, the vmap interfaces do not provide any method of communicating this information to memory reclaim, and hence we get lockdep complaining about it regularly and occassionally see hangs that may be vmap related reclaim deadlocks. We can also see these same problems from anywhere where we use vmalloc for a large buffer (e.g. attribute code) inside a transaction context. A typical lockdep report shows up as a reclaim state warning like so: [14046.101458] ================================= [14046.102850] [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] [14046.102850] 3.14.0-rc4+ #2 Not tainted [14046.102850] --------------------------------- [14046.102850] inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage.

To do that, use the method that DM and other IO context code uses to avoid this problem: there is a process flag to tell memory reclaim not to do IO that we can set appropriately. That prevents GFP_KERNEL context reclaim being done from deep inside the vmalloc code in places we can't directly pass a GFP_NOFS context to. That interface has a pair of wrapper functions: memalloc_noio_save() and memalloc_noio_restore(). Adding them around vm_map_ram and the vzalloc call in kmem_alloc_large() will prevent deadlocks and most lockdep reports for this issue. Also, convert the vzalloc() call in kmem_alloc_large() to use __vmalloc() so that we can pass the correct gfp context to the data page allocation routine inside __vmalloc() so that it is clear that GFP_NOFS context is important to this vmalloc call.

2013-11-06xfs: simplify kmem_{zone_}zallocGu Zheng
Introduce flag KM_ZERO which is used to alloc zeroed entry, and convert kmem_{zone_}zalloc to call kmem_{zone_}alloc() with KM_ZERO directly, in order to avoid the setting to zero step. And following Dave's suggestion, make kmem_{zone_}zalloc static inline into kmem.h as they're now just a simple wrapper. V2: Make kmem_{zone_}zalloc static inline into kmem.h as Dave suggested.

2013-09-10xfs: factor all the kmalloc-or-vmalloc fallback allocationsDave Chinner
We have quite a few places now where we do: x = kmem_zalloc(large size) if (!x) x = kmem_zalloc_large(large size) and do a similar dance when freeing the memory. kmem_free() already does the correct freeing dance, and kmem_zalloc_large() is only ever called in these constructs, so just factor it all into kmem_zalloc_large() and kmem_free().

2011-08-12xfs: remove subdirectoriesChristoph Hellwig
Use the move from Linux 2.6 to Linux 3.x as an excuse to kill the annoying subdirectories in the XFS source code. Besides the large amount of file rename the only changes are to the Makefile, a few files including headers with the subdirectory prefix, and the binary sysctl compat code that includes a header under fs/xfs/ from kernel/.
