Add a new REQ_PRIO to let requests preempt others in the cfq I/O schedule, and lave REQ_META purely for marking requests as metadata in blktrace. All existing callers of REQ_META except for XFS are updated to also set REQ_PRIO for now.

When journalling data for an inode (either because it is a symlink or because the filesystem is mounted in data=journal mode), ext3_evict_inode() can discard unwritten data by calling truncate_inode_pages(). This is because we don't mark the buffer / page dirty when journalling data but only add the buffer to the running transaction and thus mm does not know there are still unwritten data. Fix the problem by carefully tracking transaction containing inode's data, committing this transaction, and writing uncheckpointed buffers when inode should be reaped.

Simple filesystems always pass inode->i_sb_bdev as the block device argument, and never need a end_io handler. Let's simply things for them and for my grepping activity by dropping these arguments. The only thing not falling into that scheme is ext4, which passes and end_io handler without needing special flags (yet), but given how messy the direct I/O code there is use of __blockdev_direct_IO in one instead of two out of three cases isn't going to make a large difference anyway.

Let filesystems handle waiting for direct I/O requests themselves instead of doing it beforehand. This means filesystem-specific locks to prevent new dio referenes from appearing can be held. This is important to allow generalizing i_dio_count to non-DIO_LOCKING filesystems. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
New truncate calling convention allows us to handle errors from ext3_block_truncate_page(). So reorganize the code so that ext3_block_truncate_page() is called before we change inode size. This also removes unnecessary block zeroing from error recovery after failed buffered writes (zeroing isn't needed because we could have never written non-zero data to disk). We have to be careful and keep zeroing in direct IO write error recovery because there we might have already overwritten end of the last file block. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
Mostly trivial conversion. We fix a bug that IS_IMMUTABLE and IS_APPEND files could not be truncated during failed writes as we change the code. In fact the test is not needed at all because both IS_IMMUTABLE and IS_APPEND is tested in upper layers in do_sys_[f]truncate(), may_write(), etc. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
This commit adds fixed tracepoints to the ext3 code. It is based on ext4 tracepoints, however due to the differences of both file systems, there are some tracepoints missing (those for delaloc and for multi-block allocator) and there are some ext3 specific as well (for reservation windows). Here is a list: ext3_free_inode ext3_request_inode ext3_allocate_inode ext3_evict_inode ext3_drop_inode ext3_mark_inode_dirty ext3_write_begin ext3_ordered_write_end ext3_writeback_write_end ext3_journalled_write_end ext3_ordered_writepage ext3_writeback_writepage ext3_journalled_writepage ext3_readpage ext3_releasepage ext3_invalidatepage ext3_discard_blocks ext3_request_blocks ext3_allocate_blocks ext3_free_blocks ext3_sync_file_enter ext3_sync_file_exit ext3_sync_fs ext3_rsv_window_add ext3_discard_reservation ext3_alloc_new_reservation ext3_reserved ext3_forget ext3_read_block_bitmap ext3_direct_IO_enter ext3_direct_IO_exit ext3_unlink_enter ext3_unlink_exit ext3_truncate_enter ext3_truncate_exit ext3_get_blocks_enter ext3_get_blocks_exit ext3_load_inode Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or anything else, so that the filesystem can track internally if it needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not. This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet. I plan to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid tree interdependencies. Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block. That has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.
