| * [JFFS2] Remove another bogus optimisation in jffs2_add_tn_to_tree()David Woodhouse2007-05-071-14/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We attempted to insert new nodes into the tree by just using rb_replace_node to let them replace an earlier node which they completely overlapped. However, that could place the new node into the wrong place in the tree, since its start could be node only before the start of the victim, but before the node _before_ the victim in the tree (if that previous node actually ends _after_ the new node, thus isn't entirely overlapped and wasn't itself chosen to be the victim).

| * [JFFS2] Remove broken insert_point optimisation in jffs2_add_tn_to_tree()David Woodhouse2007-05-061-18/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original code would remember, during the first pass over the tree, a suitable place to start the insertion from when we eventually come to add a new node. The optimisation was broken, and we sometimes ended up inserting a new node in the wrong place because we started the insertion from the wrong point. Just ditch the optimisation and start the insertion from the root of the tree, for now. I'll try it again when I'm feeling cleverer. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

* | slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flagChristoph Lameter2007-05-071-2/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by SLAB. I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is performed before each freeing of an object. I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually before the free. That also places the check near the code object manipulation of the object. Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree). There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors. This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for unimplemented flags from SLUB.

* | [JFFS2] Improve read_inode memory usage, v2.David Woodhouse2007-04-253-599/+618
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We originally used to read every node and allocate a jffs2_tmp_dnode_info structure for each, before processing them in (reverse) version order and discarding the ones which are obsoleted by later nodes. With huge logfiles, this behaviour caused memory problems. For example, a file involved in OLPC trac #1292 has 1822391 nodes, and would cause the XO machine to run out of memory during the first stage of read_inode(). Instead of just inserting nodes into a tree in version order as we find them, we now put them into a tree in order of their offset within the file, which allows us to immediately discard nodes which are completely obsoleted. We don't use a full tree with 'fragments' pointing to the real data structure, as we do in the normal fragtree. We sort only on the start address, and add an 'overlapped' flag to the tmp_dnode_info to indicate that the node in question is (partially) overlapped by another. When the scan is complete, we start at the end of the file, adding each node to a real fragtree as before. Where the node is non-overlapped, we just add it (it doesn't matter that it's not the latest version; there is no overlap). When the node at the end of the tree _is_ overlapped, we sort it and all its overlapping nodes into version order and then add them to the fragtree in that order. This 'early discard' reduces the peak allocation of tmp_dnode_info structures from 1.8M to a mere 62872 (3.5%) in the degenerate case referenced above. This version of the patch also correctly rememembers the highest node version# seen for an inode when it's scanned. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In read inode we have an optimization which prevents one min. I/O unit (e.g. NAND page) to be read more then once. Namely, at the beginning we do not know which node type we read, so we read so we assume we read the directory entry, because it has the smallest node header. When we read it, we read up to the next min. I/O unit, just because if later we'll need to read more, we already have this data. If it turns out to be that the node is not directory entry, and we need more data, and we did not read it because it sits in the next min. I/O unit, we read the whole next (or several next) min. I/O unit(s). And if it happens to be that we read a data node, and we've read part of its data, we calculate partial CRC. So if later we need to check data CRC, we'll only read the rest of the data from further min. I/O units and continue CRC checking. This code was a bit messy and buggy. The bug was that it assumed relatively large min. I/O unit, so that the largest node header could overlap only one min. I/O unit boundary. This parch clean-ups the code a bit and fixes this bug. The patch was not tested on flash with small min. I/O unit, like NOR-ECC, nut it was tested on NAND with 512 bytes NAND page, so it at least does not break NAND. It was also tested with mtdram so it should not break NOR. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
* | [JFFS2] Disable summary after wbuf recoveryAdrian Hunter2007-04-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After a write error, any data in the write buffer must be relocated. This is handled by the jffs2_wbuf_recover function. This function does not fix up the erase block summary information that is collected for writing at the end of the block, which results in an incorrect summary (or BUG if the summary was found to be empty). As the summary is not essential (it is an optimisation), it may be disabled for the current erase block when this situation arises. This patch does that.

We end up building the rbtree of node coverage twice for the same inode.

| * [JFFS2] Use MTD_OOB_AUTO to automatically place cleanmarker on NANDArtem Bityutskiy2007-02-093-148/+77
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nowadays MTD supports an MTD_OOB_AUTO option which allows users to access free bytes in NAND's OOB as a contiguous buffer, although it may be highly discontinuous. This patch teaches JFFS2 to use this nice feature instead of the old MTD_OOB_PLACE option. This for example caused problems with OneNAND. Now JFFS2 does not care how are the free bytes situated. This may change position of the clean marker on some flashes, but this is not a problem. JFFS2 will just re-erase the empty eraseblocks and write the new (correct) clean marker.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).
