本节中,我们继续讲解,在linux2.4内核下,如果通过一些列函数从路径名找到目标节点。
[path_walk()>> cached_lookup()]
/*
*Internal lookup() using the new generic dcache.
*SMP-safe
*给定name和parent进行查找,如果找到而且合法,那么返回找到的dentry;否则,返回NULL
*/
staticstruct dentry * cached_lookup(struct dentry * parent, struct qstr *name, int flags)
{
structdentry * dentry = d_lookup(parent, name);
if(dentry && dentry->d_op &&dentry->d_op->d_revalidate) { //注意此处最后一项是判断函数指针非空
if(!dentry->d_op->d_revalidate(dentry, flags) &&!d_invalidate(dentry)) { //此处是对dentry的有效性进行验证,对于NTFS非常重要
dput(dentry);
dentry= NULL;
}
}
returndentry;
}
该函数主要通过d_lookup(),代码在fs/dcache.c之中
[path_walk>> cached_lookup() >> d_lookup()]
/**
*d_lookup - search for a dentry
*@parent: parent dentry
*@name: qstr of name we wish to find
*
*Searches the children of the parent dentry for the name in question.If
*the dentry is found its reference count is incremented and the dentry
*is returned. The caller must use d_put to free the entry when it has
*finished using it. %NULL is returned on failure.
*这个是真正的查找函数,给定parent,查找这个parent对应的包含name的dentry目录下的子文件,如果成功,计数器加1并返回;否则,返回NULL指针。
*/
structdentry * d_lookup(struct dentry * parent, struct qstr * name)
{
unsignedint len = name->len;
unsignedint hash = name->hash;
constunsigned char *str = name->name;
structlist_head *head = d_hash(parent,hash);//进一步进行hash,返回hash以后对应的index,是int,这个的类型返回值岂不是不对应?
structlist_head *tmp;
spin_lock(&dcache_lock);
tmp= head->next;//这个值的初值确定了吗?猜想应该是tmp=NULL
for(;;) {//由于hash冲突,找到位置以后,需要精确定位dentry所在地址
structdentry * dentry = list_entry(tmp, struct dentry, d_hash);
if(tmp == head)
break;//双向循环链表,解决完毕
tmp= tmp->next; //这是一个循环变量,用于改变tmp的值
if(dentry->d_name.hash != hash)//d_name is the type of qstr
continue;//checkthe hash value,不同名字hash到同一个地址
if(dentry->d_parent != parent)
continue;//checkthe parent value 不同文件夹具有同名的子文件,需要比较patrent
if(parent->d_op && parent->d_op->d_compare) {//checkthe name
if(parent->d_op->d_compare(parent, &dentry->d_name, name))
continue;
}else {
if(dentry->d_name.len != len)
continue;
if(memcmp(dentry->d_name.name, str, len))
continue;
}
__dget_locked(dentry);
dentry->d_vfs_flags|= DCACHE_REFERENCED;
spin_unlock(&dcache_lock);
returndentry;//find the dentry in mem
}
spin_unlock(&dcache_lock);
returnNULL;//not find the dentry in mem
}
首先,本来应该直接根据hash值进行相应的地址定位,但在这里我们选择进一步hash,函数如下
[path_walk()>> cashed_lookup() >> d_lookup() >> d_hash()]
//结合parent进行hash,返回hash以后对应的地址,而不是index。意义:根据父节点的地址进行进一步hash,增强hash值的特异性。
注意:此处的d_hash返回值不是int类型,不是index是地址!!!
staticinline struct list_head * d_hash(struct dentry * parent, unsignedlong hash)
{
hash+= (unsigned long) parent / L1_CACHE_BYTES;
hash= hash ^ (hash >> D_HASHBITS);
return dentry_hashtable + (hash & D_HASHMASK);
}
list_entry的相应代码如下:
141#define list_entry(ptr, type, member) \
142 ((type *)((char *)(ptr)-(unsigned long)(&((type*)0)->member)))
这是一个节点地址索引函数,比较难以理解,可以参考这里:
。
找到相应的队列头部以后,利用for循环来查找比较简单,唯一的特殊之处在于具体的文件系统可能通过其dentry_operation提供自己的节点名称对比函数,没有的话就用memcmp().
接下来继续看cached_lookup(),具体的文件系统通过其dentry_operations提供一个对找到的dentry进行验证和处理的函数,如果验证失败,就要通过d_invaliate()将这个数据结构从hash表中删除。原因:在NFS之中,如果一个远程进程是其唯一用户,而且很长时间没有访问它了,那么此时就需要通过访问磁盘上的父目录内容来进行重新构造。具体的函数有dentry_operations结构中通过函数指针d_revaliate提供,最后则根据验证的结果返回一个dentry指针或者出错代码。而很多文件系统,包括ext2,并不提供dentry_operations结构。至此,cached_lookup()就完成了。

继续回到ext2_lookup()的代码,下一步是根据查的索引节点通过iget()找到对应的inode结构,这里的iget()是inline函数,定义在inlude/linux/fs.h
staticinline struct inode *iget(struct super_block *sb, unsigned long ino)
{
return iget4(sb, ino, NULL, NULL);
}
继续追寻iget4(),在fs/inode.c:
962struct inode *iget4(struct super_block *sb, unsigned long ino,find_inode_t find_actor, void *opaque)
963{//根据sb和索引节点号,返回inode结构;如果对应inode结构不存在内存中,就从磁盘上读取相关信息,然后在内存中建立对应的inode结构
964 struct list_head * head = inode_hashtable +hash(sb,ino);//索引节点号在同一设备上才是唯一的,所以计算hash的时候,要加入superblock的地址
965 struct inode * inode;
966
967 spin_lock(&inode_lock);
968 inode = find_inode(sb, ino, head, find_actor,opaque);//在hash表中查找该inode是否在内存中
969 if (inode) {
970 __iget(inode);
971 spin_unlock(&inode_lock);
972 wait_on_inode(inode);
973 return inode;
974 }
975 spin_unlock(&inode_lock);
976
977 /*
978 * get_new_inode() will do the right thing, re-trying thesearch
979 * in case it had to block at any point.
980 */
981 return get_new_inode(sb, ino, head, find_actor,opaque);//内存中找不到inode结构,需要从磁盘上读入
982}
983
inode也涉及内存缓存,inode结构有个hash表inode_hashtable,已经建立的inode结构需要通过inode结构中的i_hash(也是一个list_head)挂在hash表中的队列中,首先通过find_inode进行查找,找到以后通过iget进行递增共享计数。
下面看代码fs/inode.c:
[path_walk()>> real_lookup() >> ext2_lookup() >> iget() >>iget4() >> get_new_inode()]
649/*

656{//这段代码的理解可以参考前面dentry的空间分配和内存结构的建立,其中包含了初始化的部分
657 struct inode * inode;

659 inode = alloc_inode();
660 if (inode) {

对有的文件系统来说,是“读入”索引节点,对有的文件系统来说,是将磁盘上的相关信息变成一个索引节点。
对于节点的读入,具体的函数是通过函数跳转表super_operations结构中的函数指针read_inode提供的。每个设备的super_block结构都有一个指针s_o,指向具体的跳转表。对于ext2来说,这个跳转表就是ext2_sops,具体的函数是ext2_read_inode()(见文件fs/ext2/super.c)

在ext2格式的磁盘上,有些索引节点是有特殊用途的,在include/linux/ext2_fs.h中有这些节点的定义:
55/*
56 * Special inode numbers
57 */
58#define EXT2_BAD_INO 1 /* Bad blocks inode */
59#define EXT2_ROOT_INO 2 /* Root inode */
60#define EXT2_ACL_IDX_INO 3 /* ACL inode */
61#define EXT2_ACL_DATA_INO 4 /* ACL inode */
62#define EXT2_BOOT_LOADER_INO 5 /* Boot loader inode */
63#define EXT2_UNDEL_DIR_INO 6 /* Undelete directory inode*/
64
65/* First non-reserved inode for old ext2 filesystems */
66#define EXT2_GOOD_OLD_FIRST_INO 11
67
68/*
69 * The second extended file system magic number
70 */
71#define EXT2_SUPER_MAGIC 0xEF53
72
73/*
74 * Maximal count of links to a file
75 */
76#define EXT2_LINK_MAX 32000
77
78/*
79 * Macro-instructions used to manage several block sizes
80 */
81#define EXT2_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE 1024
82#define EXT2_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE 4096
83#define EXT2_MIN_BLOCK_LOG_SIZE 10
这些索引节点都是为系统保留的,对它们的访问不同过目录项而通过定义的节点号进行。磁盘设备的super_block结构中提供磁盘上第一个供常规用途的索引节点的节点号以及索引节点的总数,这两项参数都被用于对节点号的范围检查。
从概念上,ext2格式的磁盘设备上,除了引导块和超级块以外,剩下部分是索引节点和数据。而实际上分区先划分成若干“记录块组”,然后再将每个记录块组分成索引节点和数据两个部分,而关于“记录块组”的信息记录在超级块中。所以,给定索引节点,访问文件的流程是索引节点号》》 所在记录块组号+组内偏移》》节点所在的记录块号》》通过设备驱动读取信息。从磁盘上读取的是ext2-inode数据结构信息,是原始的,代码中称为raw_inode;内存中的inode结构中的信息有两个部分,一个是VFS层面,另外一个是具体的文件系统,就是那个union,对于ext2来说,这部分数据形成一个ext2_inode_info结构,这是在inlude/linux/ext2_fs_i.h定义的:
22struct ext2_inode_info {
23 __u32 i_data[15];
24 __u32 i_flags;
25 __u32 i_faddr;
26 __u8 i_frag_no;
27 __u8 i_frag_size;
28 __u16 i_osync;
29 __u32 i_file_acl; //acess control list
30 __u32 i_dir_acl;
31 __u32 i_dtime;
32 __u32 not_used_1; /* FIX: not used/ 2.2 placeholder */
33 __u32 i_block_group;
34 __u32 i_next_alloc_block;
35 __u32 i_next_alloc_goal;
36 __u32 i_prealloc_block;
37 __u32 i_prealloc_count;
38 __u32 i_high_size;
39 int i_new_inode:1; /* Is a freshly allocated inode */
40};
结构中的idata存放着一些指针,直接或者间接指向磁盘上保存着这些文件的记录块。至于代表着符号连接的节点,并没有实际的内容,所以正好可以用这块空间存储链接目标的路径名。代码中通过for循环将15个整数复制到inode结构的union中。
在ext2_read_inode()的代码中继续往下看(fs/ext2/inode.c):
[path_walk()> real_lookup() > ext2_lookup() > iget() >get_new_inode() >ext2_read_inode()]
1059 if (inode->i_ino == EXT2_ACL_IDX_INO ||
1060 inode->i_ino == EXT2_ACL_DATA_INO)
1061 /* Nothing to do */ ;
1062 else if (S_ISREG(inode->i_mode)) {
1063 inode->i_op = &ext2_file_inode_operations;
1064 inode->i_fop = &ext2_file_operations;
1065 inode->i_mapping->a_ops = &ext2_aops;
1066 } else if (S_ISDIR(inode->i_mode)) {
1067 inode->i_op = &ext2_dir_inode_operations;
1068 inode->i_fop = &ext2_dir_operations;
1069 } else if (S_ISLNK(inode->i_mode)) {
1070 if (!inode->i_blocks)
1071 inode->i_op =&ext2_fast_symlink_inode_operations;
1072 else {
1073 inode->i_op =&page_symlink_inode_operations;
1074 inode->i_mapping->a_ops = &ext2_aops;
1075 }
1076 } else
1077 init_special_inode(inode, inode->i_mode,
1078 le32_to_cpu(raw_inode->i_block[0]));
1079 brelse (bh);
1080 inode->i_attr_flags = 0;
1081 if (inode->u.ext2_i.i_flags & EXT2_SYNC_FL) {
1082 inode->i_attr_flags |= ATTR_FLAG_SYNCRONOUS;
1083 inode->i_flags |= S_SYNC;
1084 }
1085 if (inode->u.ext2_i.i_flags & EXT2_APPEND_FL) {
1086 inode->i_attr_flags |= ATTR_FLAG_APPEND;
1087 inode->i_flags |= S_APPEND;
1088 }
1089 if (inode->u.ext2_i.i_flags & EXT2_IMMUTABLE_FL) {
1090 inode->i_attr_flags |= ATTR_FLAG_IMMUTABLE;
1091 inode->i_flags |= S_IMMUTABLE;
1092 }
1093 if (inode->u.ext2_i.i_flags & EXT2_NOATIME_FL) {
1094 inode->i_attr_flags |= ATTR_FLAG_NOATIME;
1095 inode->i_flags |= S_NOATIME;
1096 }
1097 return;
1098
1099bad_inode:
1100 make_bad_inode(inode);
1101 return;
1102}
接着,就是根据句由索引节点所提供的信息设置inode结构中的inode_operations结构指针和file_operations结构指针,完成具体文件系统和虚拟文件系统之间的连接。
通过检查inode结构中的字段来判断节点是否是常规文件(S_ISREG)目录等而做不同的设置或者处理。例如:目录节点的i_op&i_fop分别设置成指向ext2_dir_inode_operations和ext2_dir_operations,对于常规文件,还有两外一个指针a_ops,指向一个address_space_operations数据结构,用于文件到内存空间的映射或者缓冲;对于特殊文件需要用init_special_inode()加以检查和处理。
找到或者建立了inode结构之后,返回到ext2_lookup(),在那里还要通过d_add()将inode结构和dentry结构挂上钩,并将dentry结构挂入hash表的某个队列。这里的d_add()定义在include/linux/dcache.h之中:
200static __inline__ void d_add(struct dentry * entry, struct inode *inode)
201{
202 d_instantiate(entry, inode); //将dentry与inode挂钩(是内存中的吗)
203 d_rehash(entry); //将dentry挂入内存中的某个队列
204}
函数d_instantiate()使得dentry结构和inode结构互相挂钩,代码在fs/dcache.c中:
663void d_instantiate(struct dentry *entry, struct inode * inode)
664{
665 spin_lock(&dcache_lock); //进程控制中,用来防止SMP并发的自旋锁
666 if (inode) //
667 list_add(&entry->d_alias, &inode->i_dentry);
668 entry->d_inode = inode;
669 spin_unlock(&dcache_lock);
670}
两个数据结构的关系是双向的,一方面是dentry结构中的指针d_inode指向inode结构,这是1对1的关系,但是从inode到dentry可以是1对多的关系。
至于d_rehash()则将dentry结构挂入hash表,代码在同一文件中
847/**
848 * d_rehash - add an entry back to the hash
849 * @entry: dentry to add to the hash
850 *
851 * Adds a dentry to the hash according to its name.
852 */
853
854void d_rehash(struct dentry * entry)
855{
856 struct list_head *list = d_hash(entry->d_parent,entry->d_name.hash);
857 spin_lock(&dcache_lock);
858 list_add(&entry->d_hash, list);
859 spin_unlock(&dcache_lock);
860}
回到real_lookup()的代码,现在已经找到或者建立了所需的dentry结构,接着就返回到path_walk()的代码中(fs/namei.cline 497)
当前节点的dentry结构有了,需要调用d_mountpoint()检查它是不是一个安装点。
