The old function ext4_ext_rm_idx is used only for truncate case because it just remove last index in extent-index-block. When punching hole, it usually needed to remove "middle" index, therefore we must move indexes which after it forward. (I create a file with 1 depth extent tree and punch hole in the middle of it, the last index in index-block strangly gone, so I find out this bug) Signed-off-by: Robin Dong <sanbai@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

This patch simplifies journal handling in setup_new_group_blocks(). In previous code, block bitmap is modified everywhere in setup_new_group_blocks(), ext4_get_write_access() in extend_or_restart_transaction() is used to guarantee that the block bitmap stays in the new handle, this makes things complicated. The previous commit changed things so that the modifications on the block bitmap are batched and done by ext4_set_bits() at the end of the for loop. This allows us to simplify things.

Before this patch, parallel resizers are allowed and protected by a mutex lock, actually, there is no need to support parallel resizer, so this patch prevents parallel resizers by atmoic bit ops, like lock_page() and unlock_page() do. To do this, the patch removed the mutex lock s_resize_lock from struct ext4_sb_info and added a unsigned long field named s_resize_flags which inidicates if there is a resizer.

When journalling data for an inode (either because it is a symlink or because the filesystem is mounted in data=journal mode), ext4_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.

If eh_entries is equal to (or greater than) eh_max, the operation of inserting new extent_idx will make number of entries overflow. So check eh_entries before inserting the new extent_idx. Although there is no bug case according the code (function ext4_ext_insert_index is called by ext4_ext_split and ext4_ext_split is called only if the index block has free space), the right logic should be "lookup the capacity before insertion".

This patch avoids an extraneous lookup of the extent cache in ext4_ext_map_blocks() when the flag EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_PUNCH_OUT_EXT is absent. The existing logic was performing the lookup but not making use of the result. The patch simply reverses the order of evaluation in the condition. Since ext4_ext_in_cache() does not initialize newex on misses, bypassing its invocation does not introduce any new issue in this regard.

Previously, if a stripe width was provided, then it would be used as the preallocation granularity, with no santiy checking and no way to override this. Now, mb_prealloc_size defaults to the smallest multiple of stripe size that is greater than or equal to the old default mb_prealloc_size, and this can be overridden with the sysfs interface.

The comment from Al Viro about possible race in the ext4_orphan_add() is not justified. There is no race possible as we always have either i_mutex locked, or the inode can not be referenced from outside hence the J_ASSERS should not be hit from the reason described in comment. This commit replaces it with notion that we are holding i_mutex so it should not be possible for i_nlink to be changed while waiting for s_orphan_lock.

If we meet with an error in ext4_mb_add_groupinfo, we kfree sbi->s_group_info[group >> EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK_BITS(sb)], but fail to reset it to NULL. So the caller ext4_mb_init_backend will try to kfree it again and causes a double free. So fix it by resetting it to NULL. Some typo in comments of mballoc.c are also changed.

In ext4, when FITRIM is called every time, we iterate all the groups and do trim one by one. It is a bit time wasting if the group has been trimmed and there is no change since the last trim. So this patch adds a new flag in ext4_group_info->bb_state to indicate that the group has been trimmed, and it will be cleared if some blocks is freed(in release_blocks_on_commit). Another trim_minlen is added in ext4_sb_info to record the last minlen we use to trim the volume, so that if the caller provide a small one, we will go on the trim regardless of the bb_state. A simple test with my intel x25m ssd: df -h shows: /dev/sdb1 40G 21G 17G 56% /mnt/ext4 Block size: 4096 run the FITRIM with the following parameter: range.start = 0; range.len = UINT64_MAX; range.minlen = 1048576; without the patch: [root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a real 0m5.505s user 0m0.000s sys 0m1.224s [root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a real 0m5.359s user 0m0.000s sys 0m1.178s [root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a real 0m5.228s user 0m0.000s sys 0m1.151s with the patch: [root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a real 0m5.625s user 0m0.000s sys 0m1.269s [root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a real 0m0.002s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.001s [root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a real 0m0.002s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.001s A big improvement for the 2nd and 3rd run.

When we trim some free blocks in a group of ext4, we need to calculate the free blocks properly and check whether there are enough freed blocks left for us to trim. Current solution will only calculate free spaces if they are large for a trim which isn't appropriate. Let us see a small example: a group has 1.5M free which are 300k, 300k, 300k, 300k, 300k. And minblocks is 1M. With current solution, we have to iterate the whole group since these 300k will never be subtracted from 1.5M. But actually we should exit after we find the first 2 free spaces since the left 3 chunks only sum up to 900K if we subtract the first 600K although they can't be trimed.

In 0f0a25bf, we adjust 'len' with s_first_data_block - start, but it could underflow in case blocksize=1K, fstrim_range.len=512 and fstrim_range.start = 0. In this case, when we run the code: len -= first_data_blk - start; len will be underflow to -1ULL. In the end, although we are safe that last_group check later will limit the trim to the whole volume, but that isn't what the user really want. So this patch fix it. It also adds the check for 'start' like ext3 so that we can break immediately if the start is invalid.
