Two patches follow this message. One fixes the default implementation of SEEK_HOLE/DATA. This patch applies atop Josef's last posted patch. The second patch implements the same on ocfs2. The test tool for the same is available here. http://oss.oracle.com/~smushran/seek_data/seek_test.c It is improved since the last post. It runs cleanly on zfs, ocfs2 and ext3 (default behavior).

Former logic of ocfs2_file_aio_write() was a bit stricky to unlock the rw_lock and i_alloc_sem, by using some private bits in struct 'iocb' to communite with ocfs2_dio_end_io(), it did work before we introduce the patch of supporting 'coherency=full,buffered' option, since rw_lock and i_alloc_sem were never acquired both at the same time, no mattar we doing buffered or direct IO or

i_alloc_sem has always been a bit of an odd "lock". It''s the only remaining rw_semaphore that can be released by a different thread than the one that locked it, and it''s use case in the core direct I/O code is more like a counter given that the writers already have external serialization. This series removes it in favour of a simpler counter scheme, thus getting rid

Hi. I introduced "is_partially_uptodate" aops for OCFS2. A page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate on pagesize != blocksize environment. This aops checks that all buffers which correspond to a part of a file that we want to read are uptodate. If so, we do not have to issue actual read IO to HDD even if a page is not uptodate

From: Zach Brown <zab@zabbo.net> ocfs2''s .aio_read and .aio_write methods are changed to take iov_iter and pass it to generic functions. Wrappers are made to pack the iovecs into iters and call these new functions.

This patch list fixes an issue about ocfs2 aio/dio write process hang. The call trace is like

when we fall back to buffered write from direct write, we call __generic_file_aio_write but that will end up doing direct write even we are only prepared to do buffered write because the file has O_DIRECT flag set.

V1->V2: Check to see if our current ppos is >= i_size after a short DIO read, just in case it was actually a short read and we need to just return. This is similar to what already happens in the write case. If we have a short read while doing O_DIRECT, instead of just returning, fallthrough and try to read the rest via buffered IO. BTRFS needs this because if we encounter a compressed or

I am looking at possibility of using OCFS2 with an existing application that requires very high throughput for read and write file access. Files are created by single writer (process) and can be read by multiple reader, possibly while the file is being written. 100+ different files may be written simultaneously, and can be read by 1000+ readers. I am currently using XFS on a local filesystem,

ocfs2 currently uses the Journaled Block Device (JBD) for its journaling. This is a very stable and tested codebase. However, JBD is limited by architecture to 32bit block numbers. This means an ocfs2 filesystem is limited to 2^32 blocks. With a 4K blocksize, that's 16TB. People want larger volumes. Fortunately, there is now JBD2. JBD2 adds 64bit block number support and some other

Hi, Chris (cc) and I try to get the SGE master monitor work with Apple Leopard dtrace. Unfortunately we are stuck with the error msg below. Anyone having an idea what could be the cause? What I can rule out as cause is function inlining for the reasons explained below. Background information on SGE master monitor implementation is under http://wiki.gridengine.info/wiki/index.php/Dtrace

The following series of patches attempts to detach metadata I/O from struct inode. They are currently tied together pretty tightly. Metadata reads happen via the ocfs2_read_blocks() functions, writes via both jbd2 and ocfs2_write_blocks(). - Each inode has a cache of associated metadata blocks stored on its ip_metadata_cache member. The ocfs2_read/write_blocks() functions take a struct

Hi all, So I have finally finished the v1 of reflink for ocfs2. It has some bugs that I am still investigating, but the schema is almost there. So I'd like to send it out first for review. And Tristan and I will continue to work on the stability of the code. The general information for reflink, please see http://oss.oracle.com/osswiki/OCFS2/DesignDocs/Reflink. For the design doc, please

Hi, The following patches comprise the bulk of Ocfs2 updates for the 2.6.30 merge window. Aside from larger, more involved fixes, we're adding the following features, which I will describe in the order their patches are mailed. Sunil's exported some more state to our debugfs files, and consolidated some other aspects of our debugfs infrastructure. This will further aid us in debugging
