[PATCH 12/17] NTFS: The big ntfs write(2) rewrite has arrived.

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

 



NTFS: The big ntfs write(2) rewrite has arrived.  We now implement our own
      file operations ->write(), ->aio_write(), and ->writev() for regular
      files.  This replaces the old use of generic_file_write(), et al and
      the address space operations ->prepare_write and ->commit_write.
      This means that both sparse and non-sparse (unencrypted and
      uncompressed) files can now be extended using the normal write(2)
      code path.  There are two limitations at present and these are that
      we never create sparse files and that we only have limited support
      for highly fragmented files, i.e. ones whose data attribute is split
      across multiple extents.   When such a case is encountered,
      EOPNOTSUPP is returned.

+- This is a complete rewrite of the NTFS driver that used to be in the 2.4 and
+  earlier kernels.  This new driver implements NTFS read support and is
+  functionally equivalent to the old ntfs driver and it also implements limited
+  write support.  The biggest limitation at present is that files/directories
+  cannot be created or deleted.  See below for the list of write features that
+  are so far supported.  Another limitation is that writing to compressed files
+  is not implemented at all.  Also, neither read nor write access to encrypted
+  files is so far implemented.
 - The new driver has full support for sparse files on NTFS 3.x volumes which
   the old driver isn't happy with.

 - The new driver supports fsync(2), fdatasync(2), and msync(2).
 - The new driver supports readv(2) and writev(2).
 - The new driver supports access time updates (including mtime and ctime).

+- The new driver supports truncate(2) and open(2) with O_TRUNC.  But at present
+  only very limited support for highly fragmented files, i.e. ones which have
+  their data attribute split across multiple extents, is included.  Another
+  limitation is that at present truncate(2) will never create sparse files,

+- The new driver supports write(2) which can both overwrite existing data and

 Note, a technical ChangeLog aimed at kernel hackers is in fs/ntfs/ChangeLog.
 
+2.1.25:
+	- Write support is now extended with write(2) being able to both
+	  overwrite existing file data and to extend files.  Also, if a write
+	  to a sparse region occurs, write(2) will fill in the hole.  Note,
+	  mmap(2) based writes still do not support writing into holes or
+	  writing beyond the initialized size.
+	- Write support has a new feature and that is that truncate(2) and
+	  open(2) with O_TRUNC are now implemented thus files can be both made
+	  smaller and larger.
+	- Note: Both write(2) and truncate(2)/open(2) with O_TRUNC still have
+	  limitations in that they
+	  - only provide limited support for highly fragmented files.
+	  - only work on regular, i.e. uncompressed and unencrypted files.
+	  - never create sparse files although this will change once directory
+	    operations are implemented.
+	- Lots of bug fixes and enhancements across the board.
 2.1.24:
 	- Support journals ($LogFile) which have been modified by chkdsk.  This
 	  means users can boot into Windows after we marked the volume dirty.

+ * @lru_pvec:		lru-buffering pagevec of the caller

+ * Extend the initialized size of an attribute described by the ntfs inode @ni
+ * to @new_init_size bytes.  This involves zeroing any non-sparse space between
+ * the old initialized size and @new_init_size both in the page cache and on
+ * disk (if relevant complete pages are zeroed in the page cache then these may
+ * simply be marked dirty for later writeout).  There is one caveat and that is
+ * that if any uptodate page cache pages between the old initialized size and
+ * the smaller of @new_init_size and the file size (vfs inode->i_size) are in
+ * memory, these need to be marked dirty without being zeroed since they could
+ * be non-zero due to mmap() based writes.
+ *
+ * As a side-effect, the file size (vfs inode->i_size) may be incremented as,
+ * in the resident attribute case, it is tied to the initialized size and, in
+ * the non-resident attribute case, it may not fall below the initialized size.
+ *
+ * Note that if the attribute is resident, we do not need to touch the page
+ * cache at all.  This is because if the page cache page is not uptodate we
+ * bring it uptodate later, when doing the write to the mft record since we
+ * then already have the page mapped.  And if the page is uptodate, the
+ * non-initialized region will already have been zeroed when the page was
+ * brought uptodate and the region may in fact already have been overwritten
+ * with new data via mmap() based writes, so we cannot just zero it.  And since
+ * POSIX specifies that the behaviour of resizing a file whilst it is mmap()ped
+ * is unspecified, we choose not to do zeroing and thus we do not need to touch
+ * the page at all.  For a more detailed explanation see ntfs_truncate() which
+ * is in fs/ntfs/inode.c.
+ *
+ * @cached_page and @lru_pvec are just optimisations for dealing with multiple
+ * pages.
+ *
+ * Return 0 on success and -errno on error.  In the case that an error is
+ * encountered it is possible that the initialized size will already have been
+ * incremented some way towards @new_init_size but it is guaranteed that if
+ * this is the case, the necessary zeroing will also have happened and that all
+ * metadata is self-consistent.
+ *
+ * Locking: This function locks the mft record of the base ntfs inode and
+ * maintains the lock throughout execution of the function.  This is required
+ * so that the initialized size of the attribute can be modified safely.
