Andreas Gruenbacher 2aec7c5232 mbcache: Remove unused features
The mbcache code was written to support a variable number of indexes,
but all the existing users use exactly one index.  Simplify to code to
support only that case.

There are also no users of the cache entry free operation, and none of
the users keep extra data in cache entries.  Remove those features as
well.

Theodore Ts'o a0375156ca ext4: Clean up s_dirt handling
We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
is enabled.  In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted.  As a
result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
journal or by setting s_dirt.  There are a few exceptions, most
notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.

This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
with a journal.

Christoph Hellwig 5dd4056db8 dquot: cleanup space allocation / freeing routines
Get rid of the alloc_space, free_space, reserve_space, claim_space and
release_rsv dquot operations - they are always called from the filesystem
and if a filesystem really needs their own (which none currently does)
it can just call into it's own routine directly.

Move shared logic into the common __dquot_alloc_space,
dquot_claim_space_nodirty and __dquot_free_space low-level methods,
and rationalize the wrappers around it to move as much as possible
code into the common block for CONFIG_QUOTA vs not.  Also rename
all these helpers to be named dquot_* instead of vfs_dq_*.

Just a pet peeve of mine; we had a mishash of calls with either __func__

I think it's easier to just hide the __func__ in a macro, and it'll

Julia Lawall d3533d72e7 ext4: Eliminate potential double free on error path
b_entry_name and buffer are initially NULL, are initialized within a loop
to the result of calling kmalloc, and are freed at the bottom of this loop.
The loop contains gotos to cleanup, which also frees b_entry_name and
buffer.  Some of these gotos are before the reinitializations of
b_entry_name and buffer.  To maintain the invariant that b_entry_name and
buffer are NULL at the top of the loop, and thus acceptable arguments to
kfree, these variables are now set to NULL after the kfrees.

This seems to be the simplest solution.  A more complicated solution
would be to introduce more labels in the error handling code at the end of
the function.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r@
identifier E;
expression E1;
iterator I;
statement S;
@@

*kfree(E);
... when != E = E1
    when != I(E,...) S
    when != &E
*kfree(E);
// </smpl>

Christoph Hellwig 431547b3c4 sanitize xattr handler prototypes
Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr
handler methods.  This allows using the same methods for multiple
handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action
for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying
attribute.  With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the
methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and
jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch.

Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow
using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later,
e.g. cifs.

Theodore Ts'o e6362609b6 ext4: call ext4_forget() from ext4_free_blocks()
Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from
ext4_free_blocks().  This simplifies the code in a large number of
places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into
a single place.

Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling
ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the
conversion.  As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after
the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as
data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks.  With
this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the
EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

Eric Sandeen fb0a387dcd ext4: limit block allocations for indirect-block files to < 2^32
Today, the ext4 allocator will happily allocate blocks past
2^32 for indirect-block files, which results in the block
numbers getting truncated, and corruption ensues.

This patch limits such allocations to < 2^32, and adds
BUG_ONs if we do get blocks larger than that.

This should address RH Bug 519471, ext4 bitmap allocator 
must limit blocks to < 2^32

* ext4_find_goal() is modified to choose a goal < UINT_MAX,
  so that our starting point is in an acceptable range.

* ext4_xattr_block_set() is modified such that the goal block
  is < UINT_MAX, as above.

* ext4_mb_regular_allocator() is modified so that the group
  search does not continue into groups which are too high

* ext4_mb_use_preallocated() has a check that we don't use
  preallocated space which is too far out

* ext4_alloc_blocks() and ext4_xattr_block_set() add some BUG_ONs

No attempt has been made to limit inode locations to < 2^32,
so we may wind up with blocks far from their inodes.  Doing
this much already will lead to some odd ENOSPC issues when the
"lower 32" gets full, and further restricting inodes could
make that even weirder.

For high inodes, choosing a goal of the original, % UINT_MAX,
may be a bit odd, but then we're in an odd situation anyway,
and I don't know of a better heuristic.

Frank Mayhar 0390131ba8 ext4: Allow ext4 to run without a journal
A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run
without a journal.  Since that time I've integrated the excellent
comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs.  We're currently
running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without
a journal.  It just so happens that running without a journal is
slightly faster for most everything.

We did
	iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2

which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
to bypass the page cache.  Results:

                     ext2        ext4, default   ext4, no journal
  initial writes   13.0 MB/s        15.4 MB/s          15.7 MB/s
  rewrites         13.1 MB/s        15.6 MB/s          15.9 MB/s
  reads            15.2 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
  re-reads         15.3 MB/s        16.9 MB/s          17.2 MB/s
  random readers    5.6 MB/s         5.6 MB/s           5.7 MB/s
  random writers    5.1 MB/s         5.3 MB/s           5.4 MB/s 

So it seems that, so far, this was a useful exercise.

Theodore Ts'o 97df5d155d ext4: remove do_blk_alloc()
The convenience function do_blk_alloc() is a static function with only
one caller, so fold it into ext4_new_meta_blocks() to simplify the
code and to make it easier to understand.

To save more stack space, if count is a null pointer in
ext4_new_meta_blocks() assume that caller wanted a single block (and
if there is an error, no blocks were allocated).
