Bob Peterson ---------------------------------------------------------------- The following changes since commit a3443cda5588985a2724d6d0f4a5f04e625be6eb: Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security (2016-10-04 14:48:27 -0700) are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gfs2/linux-gfs2.git tags/gfs2-4.11.fixes for you to fetch changes up to c548a1c175608e268f6495f3f82461303584d1c9: gfs2: Make gfs2_write_full_page static (2017-02-03 08:23:47 -0500) ---------------------------------------------------------------- We've got eight GFS2 patches for this merge window: 1. Andy Price submitted a patch to make gfs2_write_full_page a static function. 2. Dan Carpenter submitted a patch to fix a ERR_PTR thinko. I've also got a few patches, three of which fix bugs related to deleting very large files, which cause GFS2 to run out of journal space: 3. The first one prevents GFS2 delete operation from requesting too much journal space. 4. The second one fixes a problem whereby GFS2 can hang because it wasn't taking journal space demand into its calculations. 5. The third one wakes up IO waiters when a flush is done to restart processes stuck waiting for journal space to become available. The other three patches are a performance improvement related to spin_lock contention between multiple writers: 6. The "tr_touched" variable was switched to a flag to be more atomic and eliminate the possibility of some races. 7. Function meta_lo_add was moved inline with its only caller to make the code more readable and efficient. 8. Contention on the gfs2_log_lock spinlock was greatly reduced by avoiding the lock altogether in cases where we don't really need it: buffers that already appear in the appropriate metadata list for the journal. Many thanks to Steve Whitehouse for the ideas and principles behind these patches. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Price (1): gfs2: Make gfs2_write_full_page static Bob Peterson (6): GFS2: Limit number of transaction blocks requested for truncates GFS2: Made logd daemon take into account log demand GFS2: Wake up io waiters whenever a flush is done GFS2: Switch tr_touched to flag in transaction GFS2: Inline function meta_lo_add GFS2: Reduce contention on gfs2_log_lock Dan Carpenter (1): GFS2: Fix reference to ERR_PTR in gfs2_glock_iter_next fs/gfs2/aops.c | 4 +-- fs/gfs2/bmap.c | 29 +++++++++++++++++-- fs/gfs2/glock.c | 12 ++++---- fs/gfs2/incore.h | 11 +++++-- fs/gfs2/log.c | 21 ++++++++++---- fs/gfs2/meta_io.c | 6 ++-- fs/gfs2/ops_fstype.c | 1 + fs/gfs2/trans.c | 81 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------ 8 files changed, 105 insertions(+), 60 deletions(-)
