[PATCH 0/3] xfs: More xfs_buf cleanups

[PATCH 0/3] xfs: More xfs_buf cleanups

[Dave Chinner]

These 3 patches sit on top of my recent series titled:

[PATCH 0/8] xfs: clean up unit usage in xfs_buf V2

These patches remove bits of the API that are effectively the
default behaviour used by everything or are redundant. This just
makes API usage simpler and gives it a smaller footprint to modify
in future.

[PATCH 1/3] xfs: kill XBF_LOCK

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Buffers are always returned locked from the lookup routines. Hence
we don't need to tell the lookup routines to return locked buffers,
on to try and lock them. Remove XBF_LOCK from all the callers and
from internal buffer cache usage.

[PATCH 2/3] xfs: kill xfs_read_buf()

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

xfs_read_buf() is effectively the same as xfs_trans_read_buf() when called
outside a transaction context. The error handling is slightly different in that
xfs_read_buf stales the errored buffer it gets back, but there is probably good
reason for xfs_trans_read_buf() for doing this.

Hence update xfs_trans_read_buf() to the same error handling as xfs_read_buf(),
and convert all the callers of xfs_read_buf() to use the former function. We can
then remove xfs_read_buf().

[PATCH 3/3] xfs: kill XBF_DONTBLOCK

[Dave Chinner]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Just about all callers of xfs_buf_read() and xfs_buf_get() use XBF_DONTBLOCK.
This is used to make memory allocation use GFP_NOFS rather than GFP_KERNEL to
avoid recursion through memory reclaim back into the filesystem.

All the blocking get calls in growfs occur inside a transaction, even though
they are no part of the transaction, so all allocation will be GFP_NOFS due to
the task flag PF_TRANS being set. The blocking read calls occur during log
recovery, so they will probably be unaffected by converting to GFP_NOFS
allocations.

Hence make XBF_DONTBLOCK behaviour always occur for buffers and kill the flag.

Do you have a new copy of the "xfs: fix buffer lookup race on allocation 
failure" patch. It would go about here in the sources.

The reason I ask, the sources that I have for xfs_buf_get() seems to 
still have a "goto no_buffer" for the failed xfs_buf_allocate_memory() 
call and this patch removes that call. I did not find anything in the 8 
buf clean-up series that would alter this area.


Thank-you,

I'm sure I posted it previously. Let me update all the reviewed-by

Looks good in general, but I'd be tempted to say the semantics changes
to xfs_trans_read_buf should be a separate patch from killing
xfs_read_buf.

Either way:

I think Mark meant the patch to fix the error handling for failed
allocation, which needs to be redone to only insert the buffer into the
rbtree once it's fully set up.

If you touch these interfaces any chance you could kill the impliciy
XBF_MAPPED thing we do in various places?  Probably best by reversing
it and only pass in an XBF_UNMAPPED for the inode buffers as that's
the only place where we want them.

Right. What I meant was that I need to resend the entire 12-13
buffer cache patches I have in my queue right now so that they
should all apply easily...

Can you make sure the allocation fix is first in the series?  That's
material for 3.4-rc and stable backports.
