similar to: [RFC PATCH] Decrease Metadata Fragment Using A Caterpillar Band Method

This patch adds mixed back ref support for btrfs programs. The mixed back ref is a new disk format. back compatilibity is still not implemented. To try the new disk format, you need fresh formatted btrfs.

This fixes up the progs to properly deal with skinny metadata. This adds the -x option to mkfs and btrfstune for enabling the skinny metadata option. This also makes changes to fsck so it can properly deal with the skinny metadata entries. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com> --- V2->V3: update the mkfs.btrfs man page with the new option This is based on

We need an smb_mb() before waitqueue_active to avoid missing wakeups. Before Mitch was hitting a deadlock between the ordered flushers and the transaction commit because the ordered flushers were waiting for more refs and were never woken up, so those smp_mb()''s are the most important. Everything else I added for correctness sake and to avoid getting bitten by this again somewhere else.

This is a first draft of a subvolume quota implementation. It is possible to limit subvolumes and any group of subvolumes and also to track the amount of space that will get freed when deleting snapshots. The current version is functionally incomplete, with the main missing feature being the initial scan and rescan of an existing filesystem. I put some effort into writing an introduction into

Document those places in the btrfs code which are BUGing on non-fatal error conditions that should be handled by proper error paths. This makes it easier to distinguish between what needs fixing versus which BUG_ON''s we might want to keep (to trap code bugs, unexpected inconsistencies, etc). Do this with a trivial macro, ''btrfs_fixable_bug_on'' which just defines to

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

Hello, At one point secure dynamic updates worked. Now I require 'allow dns updates = nonsecure' for dynamic updates to work. I can't seem to find any trace of updates being performed in the samba logs or Windows. I've hit a wall and can't seem to progress. Since I couldn't pull anything from the logs I decided to run 'nsupdate -g -d -D -L 10'. This was

Two files in the different subvolumes may have the same inode id, so The rb-tree which is used to manage the defragment object must take it into account. This patch fix this problem.

btrfs_ilookup is unused, which is good because a normal filesystem should never have to use ilookup anyway. Remove it.

Hi Chris, et. al, I''ve recently come across cppcheck (static analyser for C code) and ran it on the current btrfs directory from Linus''s repo and it''s reported the following potential issues: linux-2.6$ cppcheck -q fs/btrfs/ [fs/btrfs/compression.c:343]: (error) Data is allocated but not initialized: cb [fs/btrfs/compression.c:583]: (error) Data is allocated but not

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

Hi, Here''s an implementation of NFS support for btrfs. It does not work in one particular case as described in http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg00298.html.

Balance will create reloc_root for each fs root, and it''s going to record last_snapshot to filter shared blocks. The side effect of setting last_snapshot is to break nocow attributes of files. So it turns out that checking last_snapshot does not always ensure that a node/leaf/file_extent is shared. That''s why shared node/leaf needs to search extent tree for number of

Hello, This patch simplifies the nodatacow checker. If all references were created after the latest snapshot, then we can avoid COW safely.

We have been using bytes_reserved for metadata reservations, which is wrong since we use that to keep track of outstanding reservations from the allocator. This resulted in us doing a lot of silly things to make sure we don''t allocate a bunch of metadata chunks since we never had a real view of how much space was actually in use by metadata. There are a lot of fixes in here to make this
