[PATCH v1 00/22] e2fsprogs: inline data refinement patch set

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

== Intro ==
Here's my first to refine the inline data patch set for e2fsprogs.  This
patch set has slept on my own tree for a very long time.  Sorry for my
late.

As Ted suggested, I revise the interface of libext2fs.  Now the following
interfaces are exported in libext2fs.  In ext_attr.c file three new
functions are added:
 * ext2fs_ext_attr_ibody_find()
   This function tries to find an EA entry in an inode.  It just gets the
   start entry and end entry, and calls ext2fs_ext_attr_find_entry() to
   find that entry that we want to search.

 * ext2fs_ext_attr_find_entry()
   This function traverses the entries to find an entry.

 * ext2fs_ext_attr_set_entry()
   This function tries to set an entry in an inode.

In inline_data.c file there are some functions that need to be exported:
 * ext2fs_inode_has_inline_data()
   This function determine whether EXT4_INLINE_DATA_FL flag is set or not.

 * ext2fs_inline_data_get_size()
   It returns the size of inline data.

 * ext2fs_inline_data_iterate()
   It is used to traverse the directory entries of a directory with
   inline data.

 * ext2fs_inline_data_check()
   This function is used by e2fsck to make sure that the inline data is
   valid.

 * ext2fs_inline_data_create()
   It tries to create inline data in an inode.

 * ext2fs_read_inline_data()
   Read inline data from an inode and copy them to buffer.

 * ext2fs_write_inline_data()
   Write the data to an inode.

 * ext2fs_try_to_write_inline_data()
   Try to write the data to an inode if the size of data is smaller
   than the size of inline data.  Otherwise, it returns
   EXT2_ET_INLINE_DATA_NO_SPACE.

== Changelog ==
v1:
 * Revise the interfaces of liext2fs.

 * Implement ext2fs_punch_inline_data in lib/ext2fs/punch.c.  Now if you
   want to truncate an inode with inline data, you need to call
   ext2fs_punch(), and it will handle inline data.

 * Remove ext2fs_inline_data_dirsearch() function.  Now we don't support
   dirsearch command for an inode with inline data in debugfs.

 * Ext2fs_mkdir() refinement.  Now if we want to create a directory with
   inline data, we just need to call ext2fs_mkdir().  This function will
   try to create a new directory with inline data if inline_data feature
   is enabled.

 * Fix big-endian bug in some functions.  When ext2fs_read_inode() tries
   to read an inode into memory, it will handle big-endian by itself.
   Thus, we don't need to handle it manually.

 * Fix a bug in e2fsck/pass3.  When we try to expand a 'lost+found' dir,
   we don't need to handle inline data because this dir shouldn't have
   this flag.

== TODO ==
 * Rebase against the latest e2fsprogs/master branch.

Here is the original Ted's git repo which tracks all original patches
[1].  I fork this repo in github.com and here is the url [2].  These
patches are against *e2fsprogs/pu* branch.

Comments and feedbacks are all welcome.

Thanks,
