similar to: [PATCH 1/1] Ocfs2: Teach 'coherency=full' O_DIRECT writes to correctly up_read i_alloc_sem.

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

V4 changes: add Acked-by: Joel Becker <jlbec at evilplan.org> V3 changes: - add Cc: stable at vger.kernel.org in the patch header to align with stable rules - add Acked-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer at redhat.com> V2 changes: - update the patch header of the first patch to make it more clear. This patch list fixes an issue about ocfs2 aio/dio write process hang. The call trace is like

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

Hi, I think I found a bug in the rw_enter() implementation (emulation?) in libzpool, file /usr/src/lib/libzpool/common/kernel.c: void rw_enter(krwlock_t *rwlp, krw_t rw) { ASSERT(!RW_LOCK_HELD(rwlp)); ASSERT(rwlp->rw_owner != (void *)-1UL); ASSERT(rwlp->rw_owner != curthread); if (rw == RW_READER) (void) rw_rdlock(&rwlp->rw_lock); else (void)

Provide a splice_read stub for ocfs2. This emits trace lines and does an atime lock/update before calling filemap_splice_read(). Splicing from direct I/O is handled by the caller. A couple of new tracepoints are added for this purpose. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells at redhat.com> cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch at lst.de> cc: Al Viro <viro at zeniv.linux.org.uk> cc: Jens

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,

Currently, default behavior of O_DIRECT writes was allowing concurrent writing among nodes, no cluster coherency guaranteed (no EX locks was taken), it hurts buffered reads on other nodes by reading stale data from cache. The new mount option introduce a chance to choose two different behaviors for O_DIRECT writes: * coherency=full, as the default value, will disallow concurrent

Hello, Are there any issues with Centos 4.4 and asterisk. Thanks in advance Varun

I'm a newbie with a TDM11B. I've read the FAQs about linking /usr/src/linux-2.6 to /usr/src/linux-2.6.8-1.521 and /lib/linux-2.6 to /lib/linux-2.6.8-1.521 but still get a million errors and eventual abort during compile. Could someone point me in the right direction? I do a yum update every day and I'm using the CVS from 9/14/04. I'm also using an ASUS CUSL2 system board.

Hi, I did some more in-depth testing of OCFS2 quota code, especially with ECC feature enabled and spotted some problems. First four patches fix them. I need the fifth patch to be able to mount OCFS2 filesystem with 2.6.31-rc3. The sixth patch fixes a potential problem when quota syncing interval is updated while the cluster is running (which is not possible currently). Joel, could you please

The patch was created against a 1.4 tree. However, it applies cleanly to mainline too. The patch has been lightly tested. I am running fill_verify_holes on a non sparse volume currently. Please review. Sunil

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

The patch below does not apply to the 5.10-stable tree. If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit id to <stable at vger.kernel.org>. To reproduce the conflict and resubmit, you may use the following commands: git fetch https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/

Mark and Joel, I found two serious bugs about xattr and inline-data. the first bug: in ocfs2_mknod(), we check and found the ACL or security xattr entry could be set into inode in ocfs2_calc_xattr_init(), then don't reserve block for them. But in ocfs2_mknod_locked(), if we found ocfs2 support inline-data, then set id_count with the max_inline_data. After that, we set acl/security xattr

When buffered write fails to copy data into underlying page cache page, ocfs2_write_end_nolock() just zeroes out and dirties the page. This can leave dirty page beyond EOF and if page writeback tries to write this page before write succeeds and expands i_size, page gets into inconsistent state where page dirty bit is clear but buffer dirty bits stay set resulting in page data never getting written
