There is no reason to conditionally take the iolock inside xfs_setattr_size
when we can let the caller handle it unconditionally, which just incrases
the lock hold time for the case where it was previously taken internally
by a few instructions.

I think there should be a bit more cleanup of this lock_flags
variable. There's quite a few error paths that now "goto out_unlock"
without actually holding a lock. i.e. they could just become a
straight "return error", and lock_flags can probably go away
completely...
Otherwise it look s good to me.
Cheers,
Dave.

I'll look into that.

An xfs ioctl user who requests nonblocking behavior will no longer get it.
This seems to constitute API breakage. How can we verify that this is unused
since anyone can open with O_NONBLOCK?

Ben

The flag isn't checked anywhere, which means it doesn't have any effect,
and doesn't as far as I can look back. I also don't know how the
prealloc ioctls could behave non-blocking in any sane way.

Gah. I was about to say that you just removed the last usage of it in patch 1!
But that patch is about NOLOCK, not NONBLOCK. I should get my eyes checked. ;)
Anyway, XFS_ATTR_NONBLOCK is used by dmapi so that nfs threads don't block for
offline files. Folks who care about that sort of thing will have to add it
back in. That's fine.
FWIW, you can see that here:

Right. Nfsd doesn't use any of those ioctls, so I don't really see the point
either.
Looks like my concern was unfounded.
Thanks,
Ben

Currently fallocate always holds the iolock when calling into
xfs_change_file_space, while the ioctl path lets some of the lower level
functions take it, but leave it out in others.
This patch makes sure the ioctl path also always holds the iolock and
thus introduces consistent locking for the preallocation operations while
simplifying the code and allowing to kill the now unused XFS_ATTR_NOLOCK
flag.

Call xfs_alloc_file_space or xfs_free_file_space directly from
xfs_file_fallocate instead of going through xfs_change_file_space.
This simplified the code by removing the unessecary marshalling of the
arguments into an xfs_flock64_t structure and allows removing checks that
are already done in the VFS code.

Seems a bit clunky to do all this work when we've got to repeat most
of it when when we call xfs_setattr_size() if the size has changed.
Any thoughts on how we might reduce to a single transaction?
Otherwise it looks ok.
Cheers,
Dave.

I tried that, but the helper becomes a complete mess of flag values for the
possible inode modifications. You also pointed this out the last time
around. If anyone can come up with a saner helper than I tired feel
free to send a patch on top.

Now that only one caller of xfs_change_file_space is left it can be merged
into said caller.

Looks good.

One question, though:

Should we, at this point, mark these ioctls as deprecated and
schedule then for removal given that we've recommended against using
them for the past 10 years and we have fallocate() now?

I don't see any reason to remove them given that it's only about 15
extra lines of code. But if you care enough to get rid of them we
probably need multiple years of actuall warnings emmited when used
before actually removing them. I would be very surprised if there
aren't same users that wouldn't argue very vocally against their
removal.

I'll put a significant quantity of beer on the table if anyone other
than xfstests is actually using these ioctls. In all my years of
working with XFS, I've never seen a single user of them, even on
Irix.
The one person I know who was considering using XFS_IOC_ALLOCSP
convinced me (quite easily) to implement XFS_IOC_ZERO_RANGE for them
because writing all those zeros to re-initialise pre-allocated VM
images was going to be prohibitively expensive...
Anyway, it was just a thought.
Cheers,
Dave.

Send a patch to warn on their usage, and you might be the lucky owner of
a beer or two a few years down the road :)

Applied this series.
Thanks,
