noop_backing_dev_info is used only as a flag to mark filesystems that

Changed the BUG_ON() to a WARN_ON(). Note that adding dirty inodes
to the noop_backing_dev_info is not legal and will not result in
them being flushed, but we already catch this condition in
__mark_inode_dirty() when checking for a registered bdi.

Sizing the buffer based on block size is incorrect, leading
to a potential buffer over-run on 4K block size file systems
(because the metadata block size is always 8K). This bug
doesn't seem have triggered because 4K block size file systems
are not default, and also because metadata blocks after
compression tend to be less than 4K.

We are seeing a large regression in database performance on recent
kernels. The database opens a block device with O_DIRECT|O_SYNC and a
number of threads write to different regions of the file at the same time.
A simple test case is below. I haven't defined DEVICE since getting it
wrong will destroy your data :) On an 3 disk LVM with a 64k chunk size we
see about 17MB/sec and only a few threads in IO wait:
procs -----io---- -system-- -----cpu------
r b bi bo in cs us sy id wa st
0 3 0 16170 656 2259 0 0 86 14 0
0 2 0 16704 695 2408 0 0 92 8 0
0 2 0 17308 744 2653 0 0 86 14 0
0 2 0 17933 759 2777 0 0 89 10 0
Most threads are blocking in vfs_fsync_range, which has:
mutex_lock(&mapping->host->i_mutex);
err = fop->fsync(file, dentry, datasync);
if (!ret)
ret = err;
mutex_unlock(&mapping->host->i_mutex);
commit 148f948ba8 (vfs: Introduce new
helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode) offers
some explanation of what is going on:
Use these new helpers for syncing from generic VFS functions. This makes
O_SYNC writes to block devices acquire i_mutex for syncing. If we really
care about this, we can make block_fsync() drop the i_mutex and reacquire
it before it returns.
Thanks Jan for such a good commit message! As well as dropping i_mutex,
Christoph suggests we should remove the call to sync_blockdev():
> sync_blockdev is an overcomplicated alias for filemap_write_and_wait on
> the block device inode, which is exactly what we did just before calling
> into ->fsync
The patch below incorporates both suggestions. With it the testcase improves
from 17MB/s to 68M/sec:

Commit 677c9b2e39 ("reiserfs: remove
privroot hiding in lookup") removed the magic from the lookup code to hide
the .reiserfs_priv directory since it was getting loaded at mount-time
instead. The intent was that the entry would be hidden from the user via
a poisoned d_compare, but this was faulty.
This introduced a security issue where unprivileged users could access and
modify extended attributes or ACLs belonging to other users, including
root.
This patch resolves the issue by properly hiding .reiserfs_priv. This was
the intent of the xattr poisoning code, but it appears to have never
worked as expected. This is fixed by using d_revalidate instead of
d_compare.
This patch makes -oexpose_privroot a no-op. I'm fine leaving it this way.
The effort involved in working out the corner cases wrt permissions and
caching outweigh the benefit of the feature.

If we get a failure during creation of an inode we'll allow the orphan code
to remove the inode, which is correct. However, we need to ensure that we
don't get any errors after the call to ocfs2_add_entry(), otherwise we could
leave a dangling directory reference. The solution is simple - in both
cases, all I had to do was move ocfs2_dentry_attach_lock() above the
ocfs2_add_entry() call.

Currently in the error path of ocfs2_symlink and ocfs2_mknod, we just call
iput with the inode we failed with, but the inode wipe code will complain
because we don't add the inode to orphan dir. One solution would be to lock
the orphan dir during the entire transaction, but that's too heavy for a
rare error path. Instead, we add a flag, OCFS2_INODE_SKIP_ORPHAN_DIR which
tells the inode wipe code that it won't find this inode in the orphan dir.

This cleans up a few of the complaints of __generic_block_fiemap. I've
fixed all the typing stuff, used inline functions instead of macros,
gotten rid of a couple of variables, and made sure the size and block
requests are all block aligned. It also fixes a problem where sometimes
FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST wasn't being set properly.

Commit 2c61be0a94 (NFS: Ensure that the WRITE
and COMMIT RPC calls are always uninterruptible) exposed a race on file
close. In order to ensure correct close-to-open behaviour, we want to wait
for all outstanding background commit operations to complete.
This patch adds an inode flag that indicates if a commit operation is under
way, and provides a mechanism to allow ->write_inode() to wait for its
completion if this is a data integrity flush.

NFSv4 mounts ignore the rsize and wsize mount options, and always use
the default transfer size for both. This seems to be because all
NFSv4 mounts are now cloned, and the cloning logic doesn't copy the
rsize and wsize settings from the parent nfs_server.
I tested Fedora's 2.6.32.11-99 and it seems to have this problem as
well, so I'm guessing that .33, .32, and perhaps older kernels have
this issue as well.
