The Ceph metadata servers control client access to inode metadata and
file data by issuing capabilities, granting clients permission to read
and/or write both inode field and file data to OSDs (storage nodes).
Each capability consists of a set of bits indicating which operations
are allowed.

If the client holds a *_SHARED cap, the client has a coherent value
that can be safely read from the cached inode.

In the case of a *_EXCL (exclusive) or FILE_WR capabilities, the client
is allowed to change inode attributes (e.g., file size, mtime), note
its dirty state in the ceph_cap, and asynchronously flush that
metadata change to the MDS.

In the event of a conflicting operation (perhaps by another client),
the MDS will revoke the conflicting client capabilities.

In order for a client to cache an inode, it must hold a capability
with at least one MDS server.  When inodes are released, release
notifications are batched and periodically sent en masse to the MDS

An MDS request may generate two responses.  The first indicates the

INIT open /dev/console Input/output error

It also causes hibernation regression to appear as reported at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14229

The reason is that now there's latency issue with closing, but when
we open a "closing not finished" tty, -EIO will be returned.

Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion:

  Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as
  the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case
  it seems to do the wrong thing.  Opening a tty that is closing (and
  could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO.

  I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console
  timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions.

  tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty
  onto the waitqueue for destruction

  tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs.

  We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context
  fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0
  ...  the end) to occur asynchronously

  The USB update in -next would then need a call like

       if (tty->cleanup)
               tty->cleanup(tty);

  at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split
  between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final
  tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep.

  In other words the logic becomes

       final kref put
               make object unfindable

       async
               clean it up

    ACPI: CPU0 (power states: C1[C1] C2[C3])

ACPI: Clarify resource conflict message

The message "ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver" is misleading. The
device _may_ need an ACPI driver, if the BIOS implemented a custom
API for the device in question (which, AFAIK, can't be checked.) If
not, then either a generic ACPI driver may be used (for example
"thermal"), or nothing can be done (other than a white list).

I propose to reword the message to:

ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use
it instead of the native driver

which I think is more correct. Comments and suggestions welcome.

I also added a message warning about possible problems and system
instability when users pass acpi_enforce_resources=lax, as suggested

15 years agowriteback: writeback_inodes_sb() should use bdi_start_writeback()

Pointless to iterate other devices looking for a super, when
we have a bdi mapping.

15 years agowriteback: don't delay inodes redirtied by a fast dirtier
Wu Fengguang [Fri, 25 Sep 2009 04:04:10 +0000 (06:04 +0200)]
writeback: don't delay inodes redirtied by a fast dirtier

Debug traces show that in per-bdi writeback, the inode under writeback
almost always get redirtied by a busy dirtier.  We used to call
redirty_tail() in this case, which could delay inode for up to 30s.

This is unacceptable because it now happens so frequently for plain cp/dd,
that the accumulated delays could make writeback of big files very slow.

So let's distinguish between data redirty and metadata only redirty.
The first one is caused by a busy dirtier, while the latter one could
happen in XFS, NFS, etc. when they are doing delalloc or updating isize.

The inode being busy dirtied will now be requeued for next io, while
the inode being redirtied by fs will continue to be delayed to avoid
repeated IO.
