similar to: [PATCH] Btrfs: optimize fsync for the single writer case

fs_info->last_trans_log_full_commit is a 64bits variant, we might get a wrong value on the 32bit machines if we access it directly. Fix it by atomic operation.

I''ve been working to try to improve the write-ahead log''s performance, and I found that the bottleneck addresses in the checksum items, especially when we want to make a random write on a large file, e.g a 4G file. Then a idea for this suggested by Chris is to use sub transaction ids and just to log the part of inode that had changed since either the last log commit or the last

The type of some functions that return only 0 is changed to ''void''. In addition, the check on the return value in the caller of these functions becomes unnecessary. So, these check is removed.

After running ceph on XFS for some time, I decided to try btrfs again. Performance with the current "for-linux-min" branch and big metadata is much better. The only problem (?) I''m still seeing is a warning that seems to occur from time to time: [87703.784552] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [87703.789759] WARNING: at fs/btrfs/inode.c:2103

I noticed that if the free space cache has an error writing out it''s data it won''t actually error out, it will just carry on. This is because it doesn''t check the return value of btrfs_wait_ordered_range, which didn''t actually return anything. So fix this in order to keep us from making free space cache look valid when it really isnt. Thanks, Signed-off-by:

When btrfs_start_transaction() fails, we should call btrfs_std_error() properly for filesystem to readonly.

This patch introduce extent buffer cache for every i-node. By this way, we can save the search time and reduce the lock contention of the root because we needn''t search the item from the root of b+ tree. Implementation: - add two pointers of extent buffer into btrfs_inode struct, one for nodes/leaves of fs/file tree, the other for nodes/leaves of the log tree. - add a variant to tell

Btrfs has always had these filler extent data items for holes in inodes. This has made somethings very easy, like logging hole punches and sending hole punches. However for large holey files these extent data items are pure overhead. So add an incompatible feature to no longer add hole extents to reduce the amount of metadata used by these sort of files. This has a few changes for logging and

Hi all - The following 9 patches add more error handling to the btrfs code: - Add btrfs_panic - Catch locking failures in {set,clear}_extent_bit - Push up set_extent_bit errors to callers - Push up lock_extent errors to callers - Push up clear_extent_bit errors to callers - Push up unlock_extent errors to callers - Make pin_down_extent return void - Push up btrfs_pin_extent errors to

This series adds an initial implementation for scrub. It works quite straightforward. The usermode issues an ioctl for each device in the fs. For each device, it enumerates the allocated device chunks. For each chunk, the contained extents are enumerated and the data checksums fetched. The extents are read sequentially and the checksums verified. If an error occurs (checksum or EIO), a good copy

Hi all - Here''s my current error handling patchset, against 3.1-rc8. Almost all of this patchset is preparing for actual error handling. Before we start in on that work, I''m trying to reduce the surface we need to worry about. It turns out that there is a ton of code that returns an error code but never actually reports an error. The patchset has grown to 65 patches. 46 of them
