mm/hugetlb: introduce ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE

2016-10-08T01:46:29+00:00

Avoid making ifdef get pretty unwieldy if many ARCHs support gigantic
page.  No functional change with this patch.

fs/locks: Replace lg_local with a per-cpu spinlock

2016-09-22T13:25:53+00:00

As Oleg suggested, replace file_lock_list with a structure containing
the hlist head and a spinlock.

This completely removes the lglock from fs/locks.

Merge tag 'nfsd-4.8' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux

2016-08-04T23:59:06+00:00

Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
 "Highlights:

   - Trond made a change to the server's tcp logic that allows a fast
     client to better take advantage of high bandwidth networks, but may
     increase the risk that a single client could starve other clients;
     a new sunrpc.svc_rpc_per_connection_limit parameter should help
     mitigate this in the (hopefully unlikely) event this becomes a
     problem in practice.

   - Tom Haynes added a minimal flex-layout pnfs server, which is of no
     use in production for now--don't build it unless you're doing
     client testing or further server development"

xfs: abstract block export operations from nfsd layouts

2016-07-15T19:31:29+00:00

Instead of creeping pnfs layout configuration into filesystems, move the
definition of block-based export operations under a more abstract
configuration.

fs: introduce iomap infrastructure

2016-06-20T23:23:11+00:00

Add infrastructure for multipage buffered writes.  This is implemented
using an main iterator that applies an actor function to a range that
can be written.

This infrastucture is used to implement a buffered write helper, one
to zero file ranges and one to implement the ->page_mkwrite VM
operations.  All of them borrow a fair amount of code from fs/buffers.
for now by using an internal version of __block_write_begin that
gets passed an iomap and builds the corresponding buffer head.

The file system is gets a set of paired ->iomap_begin and ->iomap_end
calls which allow it to map/reserve a range and get a notification
once the write code is finished with it.

Based on earlier code from Dave Chinner.

dax: Make huge page handling depend of CONFIG_BROKEN

2016-05-19T21:13:17+00:00

Currently the handling of huge pages for DAX is racy. For example the
following can happen:

CPU0 (THP write fault)			CPU1 (normal read fault)

__dax_pmd_fault()			__dax_fault()
  get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0) -> not mapped
					get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0)
					  -> not mapped
  if (!buffer_mapped(&bh) && write)
    get_block(inode, block, &bh, 1) -> allocates blocks
  truncate_pagecache_range(inode, lstart, lend);
					dax_load_hole();

This results in data corruption since process on CPU1 won't see changes
into the file done by CPU0.

The race can happen even if two normal faults race however with THP the
situation is even worse because the two faults don't operate on the same
entries in the radix tree and we want to use these entries for
serialization. So make THP support in DAX code depend on CONFIG_BROKEN
for now.

Pull orangefs filesystem from Mike Marshall.

This finally merges the long-pending orangefs filesystem, which has been
much cleaned up with input from Al Viro over the last six months.  From
the documentation file:

 "OrangeFS is an LGPL userspace scale-out parallel storage system.  It
  is ideal for large storage problems faced by HPC, BigData, Streaming
  Video, Genomics, Bioinformatics.

  Orangefs, originally called PVFS, was first developed in 1993 by Walt
  Ligon and Eric Blumer as a parallel file system for Parallel Virtual
  Machine (PVM) as part of a NASA grant to study the I/O patterns of
  parallel programs.

  Orangefs features include:

    - Distributes file data among multiple file servers
    - Supports simultaneous access by multiple clients
    - Stores file data and metadata on servers using local file system
      and access methods
    - Userspace implementation is easy to install and maintain
    - Direct MPI support
    - Stateless"

see Documentation/filesystems/orangefs.txt for more in-depth details.
