* fs: add sync_inode_metadataChristoph Hellwig2010-10-261-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Add a new helper to write out the inode using the writeback code, that is including the correct dirty bit and list manipulation. A few of filesystems already opencode this, and a lot of others should be using it instead of using write_inode_now which also writes out the data.

| * exofs: exofs_file_fsync and exofs_file_flush correctnessBoaz Harrosh2010-08-041-12/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As per Christoph advise: no need to call filemap_write_and_wait(). In exofs all metadata is at the inode so just writing the inode is all is needed. ->fsync implies this must be done synchronously. But now exofs_file_fsync can not be used by exofs_file_flush. vfs_fsync() should do that job correctly. FIXME: remove the sb_sync and fix that sb_update better.

* | exofs: New truncate sequenceBoaz Harrosh2010-08-091-1/+0
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These changes are crafted based on the similar conversion done to ext2 by Nick Piggin. * Remove the deprecated ->truncate vector. Let exofs_setattr take care of on-disk size updates. * Call truncate_pagecache on the unused pages if write_begin/end fails. * Cleanup exofs_delete_inode that did stupid inode writes and updates on an inode that will be removed. * And finally get rid of exofs_get_block. We never had any blocks it was all for calling nobh_truncate_page. nobh_truncate_page is not actually needed in exofs since the last page is complete and gone, just like all the other pages. There is no partial blocks in exofs. I've tested with this patch, and there are no apparent failures, so far.

* exofs: Avoid using file_fsync()Boaz Harrosh2009-06-211-5/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | The use of file_fsync() in exofs_file_sync() is not necessary since it does some extra stuff not used by exofs. Open code just the parts that are currently needed. TODO: Farther optimization can be done to sync the sb only on inode update of new files, Usually the sb update is not needed in exofs. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
* exofs: Remove IBM copyrightsBoaz Harrosh2009-06-211-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Boaz, Congrats on getting all the OSD stuff into 2.6.30! I just pulled the git, and saw that the IBM copyrights are still there. Please remove them from all files: * Copyright (C) 2005, 2006 * International Business Machines IBM has revoked all rights on the code - they gave it to me. Thanks!

* exofs: file and file_inode operationsBoaz Harrosh2009-03-311-0/+87
implementation of the file_operations and inode_operations for regular data files. Most file_operations are generic vfs implementations except: - exofs_truncate will truncate the OSD object as well - Generic file_fsync is not good for none_bd devices so open code it - The default for .flush in Linux is todo nothing so call exofs_fsync on the file.
