Christoph Hellwig e0ccfd959c quota: move unmount handling into the filesystem
Currently the VFS calls into the quotactl interface for unmounting
filesystems.  This means filesystems with their own quota handling
can't easily distinguish between user-space originating quotaoff
and an unount.  Instead move the responsibily of the unmount handling
into the filesystem to be consistent with all other dquot handling.

Note that we do call dquot_disable a lot later now, e.g. after
a sync_filesystem.  But this is fine as the quota code does all its
writes via blockdev's mapping and that is synced even later.

Christoph Hellwig c79d967de3 quota: move remount handling into the filesystem
Currently do_remount_sb calls into the dquot code to tell it about going
from rw to ro and ro to rw.  Move this code into the filesystem to
not depend on the dquot code in the VFS - note ocfs2 already ignores
these calls and handles remount by itself.  This gets rid of overloading
the quotactl calls and allows to unify the VFS and XFS codepaths in
that area later.

Eric Sandeen 0636c73ee7 ext3: make barrier options consistent with ext4
ext4 was updated to accept barrier/nobarrier mount options
in addition to the older barrier=0/1.  The barrier story
is complex enough, we should help people by making the options
the same at least, even if the defaults are different.

This patch allows the barrier/nobarrier mount options for ext3,
while keeping nobarrier the default.

It also unconditionally displays barrier status in show_options,
and prints a message at mount time if barriers are not enabled,
just as ext4 does.

Eric Sandeen 4854a5f0cb ext3: ext3_mark_recovery_complete() doesn't need to use lock_super
The function ext3_mark_recovery_complete() is called from two call
paths: either (a) while mounting the filesystem, in which case there's
no danger of any other CPU calling write_super() until the mount is
completed, and (b) while remounting the filesystem read-write, in
which case the fs core has already locked the superblock.  This also
allows us to take out a very vile unlock_super()/lock_super() pair in
ext3_remount().

Eric Sandeen b918397542 ext3: Don't update the superblock in ext3_statfs()
commit a71ce8c6c9 updated ext3_statfs()
to update the on-disk superblock counters, but modified this buffer
directly without any journaling of the change.  This is one of the
accesses that was causing the crc errors in journal replay as seen in
kernel.org bugzilla #14354.

The modifications were originally to keep the sb "more" in sync,
so that a readonly fsck of the device didn't flag this as an
error (as often), but apparently e2fsprogs deals with this differently
now, anyway.

Based on Ted's patch for ext4, which was in turn based on my
work on that bug and another preliminary patch...

Jan Kara 3c4cec6527 ext3: Improve error message that changing journaling mode on remount is not possible
This patch makes the error message about changing journaling mode on remount
more descriptive. Some people are going to hit this error now due to commit
bbae8bcc49 if they configure a kernel to default
to data=writeback mode. The problem happens if they have data=ordered set for
the root filesystem in /etc/fstab but not in the kernel command line (and they
don't use initrd). Their filesystem then gets mounted as data=writeback by
kernel but then their boot fails because init scripts won't be able to remount
the filesystem rw. Better error message will hopefully make it easier for them
to find the error in their setup and bother us less with error reports :).

Martin K. Petersen e1defc4ff0 block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size
Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case.  The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes.  Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.

This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.

This reverts commit c87591b719.

Since journal_start_commit() is now fixed to return 1 when we started a

there's a transaction already committing, we don't need to call
ext3_force_commit() in ext3_sync_fs().  Furthermore ext3_force_commit()
can unnecessarily create sync transaction which is expensive so it's
worthwhile to remove it when we can.

Takashi Sato c4be0c1dc4 filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfs
Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which
suspends write requests.  So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the
filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and
replication) while it is mounted.

In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g.  VxFS) has the freeze feature
and it would be used to get the consistent backup.

If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it
without a commercial filesystem.

So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature.
I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps.
1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl.
2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot
   with the storage device's feature.
3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl.
4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume
   or the snapshot.

This patch:

VFS:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they can return an error.
Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation
freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion.

ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed,
and unlockfs always returns 0.

reiserfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.

Pekka Enberg 5df096d67e ext3: allocate ->s_blockgroup_lock separately
As spotted by kmemtrace, struct ext3_sb_info is 17152 bytes on 64-bit
which makes it a very bad fit for SLAB allocators.  The culprit of the
wasted memory is ->s_blockgroup_lock which can be as big as 16 KB when
NR_CPUS >= 32.

To fix that, allocate ->s_blockgroup_lock, which fits nicely in a order 2
page in the worst case, separately.  This shinks down struct ext3_sb_info
enough to fit a 1 KB slab cache so now we allocate 16 KB + 1 KB instead of
32 KB saving 15 KB of memory.

Toshiyuki Okajima 6b082b5312 ext3: provide function to release metadata pages under memory pressure
Pages in the page cache belonging to ext3 data files are released via
the ext3_releasepage() function specified in the ext3 inode's
address_space_ops.  However, metadata blocks (such as indirect blocks,
directory blocks, etc) are managed via the block device
address_space_ops, and they can not be released by
try_to_free_buffers() if they have a journal head attached to them.

To address this, we supply a try_to_free_pages() function which calls
journal_try_to_free_buffers() function to free the metadata, and which
is called by the block device's blkdev_releasepage() function.
