Hi Oleg,
As you seem to find the list quite calm, i will try to set a little bit of animation
:o)
Here it goes:
i'm trying to set up a 2.4.19-pre6 kernel with the following patches:
- NFS linux-2.4.19-NFS_ALL.dif for pre6
- linux-2.4.19-12-neilb.dif for pre6 for NFSv3 TCP
- Quota patches :
- quota-v2-2.4.19-pre3: Jan Kara's v2 quota code
- dquot_deadlock.diff.gz
- nesting-10-2.4.19-pre3.diff.gz
- reiserfs-quota-22.diff.gz
- kinoded-8-2.4.19-pre3.diff.gz
- fs/dquot.c : change in sys_quotactl : remove the
if (id & ~0xFFFF)
goto out;
for 32 bits UIDs
- speedup patch for 2.4.19-pre6 recently posted to the list.
Patches apply correctly except one reject in bitmap.c when applying the speedup patch.
Here is the bitmap.c.rej:
***************
*** 122,128 ****
set_sb_free_blocks( rs, sb_free_blocks(rs) + 1 );
journal_mark_dirty (th, s, sbh);
- s->s_dirt = 1;
}
void reiserfs_free_block (struct reiserfs_transaction_handle *th,
--- 122,127 ----
set_sb_free_blocks( rs, sb_free_blocks(rs) + 1 );
journal_mark_dirty (th, s, sbh);
}
void reiserfs_free_block (struct reiserfs_transaction_handle *th,
because of the addition from reiserfs-quota-22.diff :
+ if (for_unformatted) {
+#ifdef REISERQUOTA_DEBUG
+ printk(KERN_DEBUG "reiserquota: freeing block id=%u\n", inode->i_uid);
+#endif
+ DQUOT_FREE_BLOCK_NODIRTY(inode, 1);
+ }
Is this something i can blindly update by hand ,i mean manually remove "s->s_dirt =
1;" ?
I'll do so in the meantime and test it on our test bed system.
At the moment i'm pretty surprised by the NFSv3 TCP performance:
( 6.32 Mb/s for a single dd if=/dev/zero of =testfile bs=8192 count=25000 , 200Mb file)
( average of 460 Kb/s when uploading a 184Mo compiled kernel tree through FTP)
Before that i manage to get 10Mb/s on an eepro100 with vanilla 2.4.18 and NFS_ALL TCP
from Trond
(either NFSv3 TCP or UDP)
Thanks,
Philippe.
PS: NFS server and client are Linux boxes running 2.4.18 and above kernel (from the
2.4.x series) both fully
reiserfs'ified
