Andreas Dilger b1f485f20e jbd2: round commit timer up to avoid uncommitted transaction
fix jiffie rounding in jbd commit timer setup code.  Rounding down
could cause the timer to be fired before the corresponding transaction
has expired.  That transaction can stay not committed forever if no
new transaction is created or expicit sync/umount happens.

linux-2.6/fs/ext4/ialloc.c:1192: warning: format ‘%lu’ expects type

Curt Wohlgemuth 6487a9d3b5 ext4: More buffer head reference leaks
After the patch I posted last week regarding buffer head ref leaks in
no-journal mode, I looked at all the code that uses buffer heads and
searched for more potential leaks.

The patch below fixes the issues I found; these can occur even when a
journal is present.

The change to inode.c fixes a double release if
ext4_journal_get_create_access() fails.

The changes to namei.c are more complicated.  add_dirent_to_buf() will
release the input buffer head EXCEPT when it returns -ENOSPC.  There are
some callers of this routine that don't always do the brelse() in the event
that -ENOSPC is returned.  Unfortunately, to put this fix into ext4_add_entry()
required capturing the return value of make_indexed_dir() and
add_dirent_to_buf().

Aneesh Kumar K.V 024eab4d5b ext4: Fix memory leak fix when mounting an ext4 filesystem
The allocation of the ext4_group_info array was moved to a new
function ext4_mb_add_group_info() in commit 5f21b0e6 so that online
resize would use a common (and correct) codepath.  Unfortunately, the
call to the new ext4_mb_add_group_info() function was added without
removing the code which originally allocated the array.  This caused a
memory leak each time an ext4 filesystem was mounted.

The fix is simple; remove the code that did the original allocation,
since it is no longer needed.

Nick Piggin 1ef7d9aa32 writeback: fix possible bdi writeback refcounting problem
wb_clear_pending AFAIKS should not be called after the item has been
put on the list, except by the worker threads. It could lead to the
situation where the refcount is decremented below 0 and cause lots of
problems.

Presumably the !wb_has_dirty_io case is not a common one, so it can
be discovered when the thread wakes up to check?

Also add a comment in bdi_work_clear.

Jens Axboe b6e51316da writeback: separate starting of sync vs opportunistic writeback
bdi_start_writeback() is currently split into two paths, one for
WB_SYNC_NONE and one for WB_SYNC_ALL. Add bdi_sync_writeback()
for WB_SYNC_ALL writeback and let bdi_start_writeback() handle
only WB_SYNC_NONE.

Push down the writeback_control allocation and only accept the
parameters that make sense for each function. This cleans up
the API considerably.

Jan Kara 81056dd044 udf: Perform preallocation only for regular files
So far we preallocated blocks also for directories but that brings a
problem, when to get rid of preallocated blocks we don't need. So far
we removed them in udf_clear_inode() which has a disadvantage that
1) blocks are unavailable long after writing to a directory finished
   and thus one can get out of space unnecessarily early
2) releasing blocks from udf_clear_inode is problematic because VFS
   does not expect us to redirty inode there and it also slows down
   memory reclaim.

So preallocate blocks only for regular files where we can drop preallocation
in udf_release_file.

Christoph Hellwig 2daea67e96 fsync: wait for data writeout completion before calling ->fsync
Currenly vfs_fsync(_range) first calls filemap_fdatawrite to write out
the data, the calls into ->fsync to write out the metadata and then finally
calls filemap_fdatawait to wait for the data I/O to complete.  What sounds
like a clever micro-optimization actually is nast trap for many filesystems.

For many modern filesystems i_size or other inode information is only
updated on I/O completion and we need to wait for I/O to finish before
we can write out the metadata.  For old fashionen filesystems that
instanciate blocks during the actual write and also update the metadata
at that point it opens up a large window were we could expose uninitialized
blocks after a crash.  While a few filesystems that need it already wait
for the I/O to finish inside their ->fsync methods it is rather suboptimal
as it is done under the i_mutex and also always for the whole file instead
of just a part as we could do for O_SYNC handling.

Here is a small audit of all fsync instances in the tree:

 - spufs_mfc_fsync:
 - ps3flash_fsync:
 - vol_cdev_fsync:
 - printer_fsync:
 - fb_deferred_io_fsync:
 - bad_file_fsync:
 - simple_sync_file:

	don't care - filesystems/drivers do't use the page cache or are
	purely in-memory.

 - simple_fsync:
 - file_fsync:
 - affs_file_fsync:
 - fat_file_fsync:
 - jfs_fsync:
 - ubifs_fsync:
 - reiserfs_dir_fsync:
 - reiserfs_sync_file:

	never touch pagecache themselves.  We need to wait before if we do
	not want to expose stale data after an allocation.

 - afs_fsync:
 - fuse_fsync_common:

	do the waiting writeback itself in awkward ways, would benefit from
	proper semantics

 - block_fsync:

	Does a filemap_write_and_wait on the block device inode.  Because we
	now have f_mapping that is the same inode we call it on in vfs_fsync.
	So just removing it and letting the VFS do the work in one go would
	be an improvement.

 - btrfs_sync_file:
 - cifs_fsync:
 - xfs_file_fsync:

	need the wait first and currently do it themselves. would benefit from
	doing it outside i_mutex.

 - coda_fsync:
 - ecryptfs_fsync:
 - exofs_file_fsync:
 - shm_fsync:

	only passes the fsync through to the lower layer

 - ext3_sync_file:

	doesn't seem to care, comments are confusing.

 - ext4_sync_file:

	would need the wait to work correctly for delalloc mode with late
	i_size updates.  Otherwise the ext3 comment applies.

	currently implemens it's own writeback and wait in an odd way,
	could benefit from doing it properly.

 - gfs2_fsync:

	not needed for journaled data mode, but probably harmless there.
	Currently writes back data asynchronously itself.  Needs some
	major audit.

 - hostfs_fsync:

	just calls fsync/datasync on the host FD.  Without the wait before
	data might not even be inflight yet if we're unlucky.

 - hpfs_file_fsync:
 - ncp_fsync:

	no-ops.  Dangerous before and after.

 - jffs2_fsync:

	just calls jffs2_flush_wbuf_gc, not sure how this relates to data.

 - nfs_fsync_dir:

	just increments stats, claims all directory operations are synchronous

 - nfs_file_fsync:

	only writes out data???  Looks very odd.

 - nilfs_sync_file:

	looks like it expects all data done, but not sure from the code

 - ntfs_dir_fsync:
 - ntfs_file_fsync:

	appear to do their own data writeback.  Very convoluted code.

 - ocfs2_sync_file:

	does it's own data writeback, but no wait.  probably needs the wait.

 - smb_fsync:

	according to a comment expects all pages written already, probably needs
	the wait before.

This patch only changes vfs_fsync_range, removal of the wait in the methods
that have it is left to the filesystem maintainers.  Note that most
filesystems really do need an audit for their fsync methods given the
gems found in this very brief audit.

Jan Kara 2f3d675bcd fat: Opencode sync_page_range_nolock()
fat_cont_expand() is the only user of sync_page_range_nolock(). It's also the
only user of generic_osync_inode() which does not have a file open.  So
opencode needed actions for FAT so that we can convert generic_osync_inode() to
a standard syncing path.

Update a comment about generic_osync_inode().

Jan Kara af0f4414f3 xfs: Convert sync_page_range() to simple filemap_write_and_wait_range()
Christoph Hellwig says that it is enough for XFS to call
filemap_write_and_wait_range() instead of sync_page_range() because we do
all the metadata syncing when forcing the log.

Jan Kara d23c937b0f ocfs2: Update syncing after splicing to match generic version
Update ocfs2 specific splicing code to use generic syncing helper. The sync now
does not happen under rw_lock because generic_write_sync() acquires i_mutex
which ranks above rw_lock. That should not matter because standard fsync path
does not hold it either.

Jan Kara 148f948ba8 vfs: Introduce new helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode
Introduce new function for generic inode syncing (vfs_fsync_range) and use
it from fsync() path. Introduce also new helper for syncing after a sync
write (generic_write_sync) using the generic function.

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.

Christoph Hellwig eef9938067 vfs: Rename generic_file_aio_write_nolock
generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw
character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case
generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to
blkdev_aio_write() and move it to fs/blockdev.c.

Jan Kara 918941a3f3 ocfs2: Use __generic_file_aio_write instead of generic_file_aio_write_nolock
Use the new helper. We have to submit data pages ourselves in case of O_SYNC
write because __generic_file_aio_write does not do it for us. OCFS2 developpers
might think about moving the sync out of i_mutex which seems to be easily
possible but that's out of scope of this patch.
