As we know CP is expensive, how about modifying checkpointed value directly in nat cache at step #3? So "b" could be fsynced with dent_mark at step #4. > > The reason is like below. > - The nid of "a" is checkpointed during #2, f2fs_sync_file. > - The inode page for "b" produced by #3 is written without dent_mark by > sync_node_pages. > > So, this patch fixes this bug by assinging file_lost_pino to the "a"'s inode. > If the pino is lost, f2fs_sync_file conducts checkpoint, and then recovers > the latest pino and its dentry information for further recovery. > > Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > fs/f2fs/namei.c | 10 ++++------ > 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/fs/f2fs/namei.c b/fs/f2fs/namei.c > index 96f1dd1..1b3cae0 100644 > --- a/fs/f2fs/namei.c > +++ b/fs/f2fs/namei.c > @@ -411,9 +411,6 @@ static int f2fs_rename(struct inode *old_dir, struct dentry *old_dentry, > } > > f2fs_set_link(new_dir, new_entry, new_page, old_inode); > - down_write(&F2FS_I(old_inode)->i_sem); > - F2FS_I(old_inode)->i_pino = new_dir->i_ino; > - up_write(&F2FS_I(old_inode)->i_sem); > > new_inode->i_ctime = CURRENT_TIME; > down_write(&F2FS_I(new_inode)->i_sem); > @@ -446,6 +443,10 @@ static int f2fs_rename(struct inode *old_dir, struct dentry *old_dentry, > } > } > > + down_write(&F2FS_I(old_inode)->i_sem); > + file_lost_pino(old_inode); > + up_write(&F2FS_I(old_inode)->i_sem); > + > old_inode->i_ctime = CURRENT_TIME; > mark_inode_dirty(old_inode); > > @@ -455,9 +456,6 @@ static int f2fs_rename(struct inode *old_dir, struct dentry *old_dentry, > if (old_dir != new_dir) { > f2fs_set_link(old_inode, old_dir_entry, > old_dir_page, new_dir); > - down_write(&F2FS_I(old_inode)->i_sem); > - F2FS_I(old_inode)->i_pino = new_dir->i_ino; > - up_write(&F2FS_I(old_inode)->i_sem); > update_inode_page(old_inode); > } else { > kunmap(old_dir_page); > -- > 1.8.5.2 (Apple Git-48) > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse > Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition > Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows > Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards > http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft > _______________________________________________ > Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list > Linux-f2fs-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
