ext4: add shutdown bit and check for it

2017-02-05T06:28:48Z

Add a shutdown bit that will cause ext4 processing to fail immediately with EIO. Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

ext4: cleanup ext4_sync_parent()

2016-09-06T03:21:43Z

A condition !hlist_empty(&inode->i_dentry) is always true for open file. Just remove it. Also ext4_sync_parent() could use some explanation why races with rmdir() are not an issue - add a comment explaining that. Reported-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

ext4: respect the nobarrier mount option in nojournal mode

2016-06-26T22:25:01Z

Also, if we are going to issue the barrier, we should do this after we write out the parent directories if necessary. Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Reviewed-by: Jan Kara

VFS: normal filesystems (and lustre): d_inode() annotations

ext4: Fix fsync error handling after filesystem abort

2013-06-13T02:38:04Z

If filesystem was aborted after inode's write back is complete but before its metadata was updated we may return success results in data loss. In order to handle fs abort correctly we have to check fs state once we discover that it is in MS_RDONLY state Test case: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/244297 Reviewed-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o"

ext4: remove i_mutex from ext4_file_sync()

2013-06-04T18:40:39Z

After removal of ext4_flush_unwritten_io() call, ext4_file_sync() doesn't need i_mutex anymore. Forcing of transaction commits doesn't need i_mutex as there's nothing inode specific in that code apart from grabbing transaction ids from the inode. So remove the lock.

ext4: use generic_file_fsync() in ext4_file_fsync() in nojournal mode

2013-06-04T18:40:09Z

Just use the generic function instead of duplicating it. We only need to reshuffle the read-only check a bit (which is there to prevent writing to a filesystem which has been remounted read-only after error I assume). Reviewed-by: Zheng Liu Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o"

ext4: defer clearing of PageWriteback after extent conversion

2013-06-04T18:23:41Z

Currently PageWriteback bit gets cleared from put_io_page() called from ext4_end_bio(). This is somewhat inconvenient as extent tree is not fully updated at that time (unwritten extents are not marked as written) so we cannot read the data back yet. This design was dictated by lock ordering as we cannot start a transaction while PageWriteback bit is set (we could easily deadlock with ext4_da_writepages()). But now that we use transaction reservation for extent conversion, locking issues are solved and we can move PageWriteback bit clearing after extent conversion is done. As a result we can remove wait for unwritten extent conversion from ext4_sync_file() because it already implicitely happens through wait_on_page_writeback(). We implement deferring of PageWriteback clearing by queueing completed bios to appropriate io_end and processing all the pages when io_end is going to be freed instead of at the moment ext4_io_end() is called.
