* hfsplus: add osx.* prefix for handling namespace of Mac OS X extended attributesVyacheslav Dubeyko2013-02-281-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hfsplus: reworked support of extended attributes. Current mainline implementation of hfsplus file system driver treats as extended attributes only two fields (fdType and fdCreator) of user_info field in file description record (struct hfsplus_cat_file). It is possible to get or set only these two fields as extended attributes. But HFS+ treats as com.apple.FinderInfo extended attribute an union of user_info and finder_info fields as for file (struct hfsplus_cat_file) as for folder (struct hfsplus_cat_folder). Moreover, current mainline implementation of hfsplus file system driver doesn't support special metadata file - attributes tree. Mac OS X 10.4 and later support extended attributes by making use of the HFS+ filesystem Attributes file B*-tree feature which allows for named forks. Mac OS X supports only inline extended attributes, limiting their size to 3802 bytes. Any regular file may have a list of extended attributes. HFS+ supports an arbitrary number of named forks. Each attribute is denoted by a name and the associated data. The name is a null-terminated Unicode string. It is possible to list, to get, to set, and to remove extended attributes from files or directories. It exists some peculiarity during getting of extended attributes list by means of getfattr utility. The getfattr utility expects prefix "user." before any extended attribute's name. So, it ignores any names that don't contained such prefix. Such behavior of getfattr utility results in unexpected empty output of extended attributes list even in the case when file (or folder) contains extended attributes. It needs to use empty string as regular expression pattern for names matching (getfattr --match=""). For support of extended attributes in HFS+: 1. It was added necessary on-disk layout declarations related to Attributes tree into hfsplus_raw.h file. 2. It was added attributes.c file with implementation of functionality of manipulation by records in Attributes tree. 3. It was reworked hfsplus_listxattr, hfsplus_getxattr, hfsplus_setxattr functions in ioctl.c. Moreover, it was added hfsplus_removexattr method. This patch: Add osx.* prefix for handling namespace of Mac OS X extended attributes.

| * vfs: kill FS_REVAL_DOT by adding a d_weak_revalidate dentry opJeff Layton2013-02-262-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following set of operations on a NFS client and server will cause server# mkdir a client# cd a server# mv a a.bak client# sleep 30 # (or whatever the dir attrcache timeout is) client# stat . stat: cannot stat `.': Stale NFS file handle Obviously, we should not be getting an ESTALE error back there since the inode still exists on the server. The problem is that the lookup code will call d_revalidate on the dentry that "." refers to, because NFS has FS_REVAL_DOT set. nfs_lookup_revalidate will see that the parent directory has changed and will try to reverify the dentry by redoing a LOOKUP. That of course fails, so the lookup code returns ESTALE. The problem here is that d_revalidate is really a bad fit for this case. What we really want to know at this point is whether the inode is still good or not, but we don't really care what name it goes by or whether the dcache is still valid. Add a new d_op->d_weak_revalidate operation and have complete_walk call that instead of d_revalidate. The intent there is to allow for a "weaker" d_revalidate that just checks to see whether the inode is still good. This is also gives us an opportunity to kill off the FS_REVAL_DOT special casing.

Here we maintain a lru list in super_block. When the extent status of an inode is accessed and changed, this inode will be move to the tail of the list. The inode will be dropped from this list when it is cleared. In the inode, a counter is added to count the number of cached objects in extent status tree. Here only written/unwritten/hole extent is counted because delayed extent doesn't be reclaimed due to fiemap, bigalloc and seek_data/hole need it. The counter will be increased as a new extent is allocated, and it will be decreased as a extent is freed. In this commit we use normal shrinker framework to reclaim memory from the status tree. ext4_es_reclaim_extents_count() traverses the lru list to count the number of reclaimable extents. ext4_es_shrink() tries to reclaim written/unwritten/hole extents from extent status tree. The inode that has been shrunk is moved to the tail of lru list. Signed-off-by: Zheng Liu <wenqing.lz@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Jan kara <jack@suse.cz>

So in these functions we first try to lookup a block mapping in extent status tree. A new flag EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_PUT_HOLE is used in ext4_da_map_blocks in order not to put a hole into extent status tree because this hole will be converted to delayed extent in the tree immediately.

First of all, we are only using it for a single parameter, and it is much more complicated to set up (some 30 lines of code compared to 3), and one more thing that might fail while loading the jbd2 module. Secondly, as a module paramter it can be specified as a boot option if jbd2 is built into the kernel, or as a parameter when the module is loaded, and it can also be manipulated dynamically under /sys/module/jbd2/parameters/jbd2_debug. So it is more flexible. Ultimately we want to move away from using jbd_debug() towards tracepoints, but for now this is still a useful simplification of the code base.

In theory, this should just be the remaining scheduling quantuum of the thread which requested the commit (assuming it was not a synchronous operation which triggered the commit request) plus scheduling overhead; however, it's possible that real time processes might get in the way of letting the kjournald thread from executing.

But __pop_vlan_tci() assumes points _before_ mac addr. In vlan_set_encap_proto(), it looks for some magic L2 value after mac addr: rawp = skb->data; if (*(unsigned short *) rawp == 0xFFFF) ... Therefore __pop_vlan_tci() is obviously wrong. A quick fix is avoiding using skb->data in vlan_set_encap_proto(), use 'vhdr+1' is always correct in both cases. Cc: David S.

This is done via a se_subsystem_api->get_write_cache() call instead of a backend se_device creation time flag, as we expect REQ_FLUSH bits to possibly change from an underlying blk_queue_flush() by the SCSI disk driver, or internal raw struct block_device driver usage. Also go ahead and update iblock_execute_rw() bio I/O path code to use REQ_FLUSH + REQ_FUA hints when determining WRITE_FUA usage, and make SPC emulation code use a spc_check_dev_wce() helper to handle both types of cases for virtual backend subsystem drivers.
