Set rp_size to zero will be ignore during remounting.
The method to identify whether we input a remounting option of
rp_size is to check if the rp_size input is zero. It can not work
well if we pass "rp_size=0".
This patch add a bool variable "set_rp_size" to fix this problem.

The jffs2 mount options will be ignored when remounting jffs2.
It can be easily reproduced with the steps listed below.
1. mount -t jffs2 -o compr=none /dev/mtdblockx /mnt
2. mount -o remount compr=zlib /mnt
Since ec10a24f10, the option parsing happens before fill_super and
then pass fc, which contains the options parsing results, to function
jffs2_reconfigure during remounting. But function jffs2_reconfigure do
not update c->mount_opts.
This patch add a function jffs2_update_mount_opts to fix this problem.
By the way, I notice that tmpfs use the same way to update remounting
options. If it is necessary to unify them?

The log of this problem is:
jffs2: Error garbage collecting node at 0x***!
jffs2: No space for garbage collection. Aborting GC thread
This is because GC believe that it do nothing, so it abort.
After going over the image of jffs2, I find a scene that
can trigger this problem stably.
The scene is: there is a normal dirent node at summary-area,
but abnormal at corresponding not-summary-area with error
name_crc.
The reason that GC exit abnormally is because it find that
abnormal dirent node to GC, but when it goes to function
jffs2_add_fd_to_list, it cannot meet the condition listed
below:
if ((*prev)->nhash == new->nhash && !strcmp((*prev)->name, new->name))
So no node is marked obsolete, statistical information of
erase_block do not change, which cause GC exit abnormally.
The root cause of this problem is: we do not check the
name_crc of the abnormal dirent node with summary is enabled.
Noticed that in function jffs2_scan_dirent_node, we use
function jffs2_scan_dirty_space to deal with the dirent
node with error name_crc. So this patch add a checking
code in function read_direntry to ensure the correctness
of dirent node. If checked failed, the dirent node will
be marked obsolete so GC will pass this node and this
problem will be fixed.

Thanks for the advice mentioned in the email.
This is my v3 patch for this problem.
Mounting jffs2 on nand flash will get message "failed: I/O error"
with the steps listed below.
1.umount jffs2
2.erase nand flash
3.mount jffs2 on it (this mounting operation will be successful)
4.do chown or chmod to the mount point directory
5.umount jffs2
6.mount jffs2 on nand flash
After step 6, we will get message "mount ... failed: I/O error".
Typical image of this problem is like:
Empty space found from 0x00000000 to 0x008a0000
Inode node at xx, totlen 0x00000044, #ino 1, version 1, isize 0...
The reason for this mounting failure is that at the end of function
jffs2_scan_medium(), jffs2 will check the used_size and some info
of nr_blocks.If conditions are met, it will return -EIO.
The detail is that, in the steps listed above, step 4 will write
jffs2_raw_inode into flash without jffs2_raw_dirent, which will
cause that there are some jffs2_raw_inode but no jffs2_raw_dirent
on flash. This will meet the condition at the end of function
jffs2_scan_medium() and return -EIO if we umount jffs2 and mount it
again.
We notice that jffs2 add the value of c->unchecked_size if we find
an inode node while mounting. And jffs2 will never add the value of
c->unchecked_size in other situations. So this patch add one more
condition about c->unchecked_size of the judgement to fix this problem.

jffs2: Fix mounting under new mount API
The mounting of jffs2 is broken due to the changes from the new mount API
because it specifies a "source" operation, but then doesn't actually
process it. But because it specified it, it doesn't return -ENOPARAM and
the caller doesn't process it either and the source gets lost.
Fix this by simply removing the source parameter from jffs2 and letting the
VFS deal with it in the default manner.
To test it, enable CONFIG_MTD_MTDRAM and allow the default size and erase
block size parameters, then try and mount the /dev/mtdblock<N> file that
that creates as jffs2. No need to initialise it.

Hi Linus,
This is my very first pull-request. I've been working full-time as
a kernel developer for more than two years now. During this time I've
been fixing bugs reported by Coverity all over the tree and, as part
of my work, I'm also contributing to the KSPP. My work in the kernel
community has been supervised by Greg KH and Kees Cook.
OK. So, after the quick introduction above, please, pull the following
patches that mark switch cases where we are expecting to fall through.
These patches are part of the ongoing efforts to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough.
They have been ignored for a long time (most of them more than 3 months,
even after pinging multiple times), which is the reason why I've created
this tree. Most of them have been baking in linux-next for a whole development
cycle. And with Stephen Rothwell's help, we've had linux-next nag-emails
going out for newly introduced code that triggers -Wimplicit-fallthrough
to avoid gaining more of these cases while we work to remove the ones
that are already present.
I'm happy to let you know that we are getting close to completing this
work. Currently, there are only 32 of 2311 of these cases left to be
addressed in linux-next. I'm auditing every case; I take a look into
the code and analyze it in order to determine if I'm dealing with an
actual bug or a false positive, as explained here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/c2fad584-1705-a5f2-d63c-824e9b96cf50@embeddedor.com/
While working on this, I've found and fixed the following missing
break/return bugs, some of them introduced more than 5 years ago:
84242b82d87850b51b6c5e420fe63509186e5034b5be8531817264235ee7cc5034a5d2479826cc865340f23df8df997abeeb2f10d82373307b00c5e65d25ff7a54a7ed5b3e7dc24bfa8f21ad0eaee6199ba8376ce1dc586a60a1a8e9b186f14e57562b4860747828eac5b974bee9cc44ba91162c930e3d0a
Once this work is finish, we'll be able to universally enable
"-Wimplicit-fallthrough" to avoid any of these kinds of bugs from
entering the kernel again.

Pull Wimplicit-fallthrough updates from Gustavo A. R. Silva:
"Mark switch cases where we are expecting to fall through.
This is part of the ongoing efforts to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough.
Most of them have been baking in linux-next for a whole development
cycle. And with Stephen Rothwell's help, we've had linux-next
nag-emails going out for newly introduced code that triggers
-Wimplicit-fallthrough to avoid gaining more of these cases while we
work to remove the ones that are already present.
We are getting close to completing this work. Currently, there are
only 32 of 2311 of these cases left to be addressed in linux-next. I'm
auditing every case; I take a look into the code and analyze it in
order to determine if I'm dealing with an actual bug or a false
positive, as explained here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/c2fad584-1705-a5f2-d63c-824e9b96cf50@embeddedor.com/
While working on this, I've found and fixed the several missing
break/return bugs, some of them introduced more than 5 years ago.
Once this work is finished, we'll be able to universally enable
"-Wimplicit-fallthrough" to avoid any of these kinds of bugs from
entering the kernel again"

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
"I have been slowly sorting out siginfo and this is the culmination of
that work.
The primary result is in several ways the signal infrastructure has
been made less error prone. The code has been updated so that manually
specifying SEND_SIG_FORCED is never necessary. The conversion to the
new siginfo sending functions is now complete, which makes it
difficult to send a signal without filling in the proper siginfo
fields.
At the tail end of the patchset comes the optimization of decreasing
the size of struct siginfo in the kernel from 128 bytes to about 48
bytes on 64bit. The fundamental observation that enables this is by
definition none of the known ways to use struct siginfo uses the extra
bytes.
This comes at the cost of a small user space observable difference.
For the rare case of siginfo being injected into the kernel only what
can be copied into kernel_siginfo is delivered to the destination, the
rest of the bytes are set to 0. For cases where the signal and the
si_code are known this is safe, because we know those bytes are not
used. For cases where the signal and si_code combination is unknown
the bits that won't fit into struct kernel_siginfo are tested to
verify they are zero, and the send fails if they are not.
I made an extensive search through userspace code and I could not find
anything that would break because of the above change. If it turns out
I did break something it will take just the revert of a single change
to restore kernel_siginfo to the same size as userspace siginfo.
Testing did reveal dependencies on preferring the signo passed to
sigqueueinfo over si->signo, so bit the bullet and added the
complexity necessary to handle that case.
Testing also revealed bad things can happen if a negative signal
number is passed into the system calls. Something no sane application
will do but something a malicious program or a fuzzer might do. So I
have fixed the code that performs the bounds checks to ensure negative
signal numbers are handled"

Most users of jffs2 are 32-bit systems that traditionally only support
timestamps using a 32-bit signed time_t, in the range from years 1902 to
2038. On 64-bit systems, jffs2 however interpreted the same timestamps
as unsigned values, reading back negative times (before 1970) as times
between 2038 and 2106.
Now that Linux supports 64-bit inode timestamps even on 32-bit systems,
let's use the second interpretation everywhere to allow jffs2 to be
used on 32-bit systems beyond 2038 without a fundamental change to the
inode format.
This has a slight risk of regressions, when existing files with timestamps
before 1970 are present in file system images and are now interpreted
as future time stamps. I considered moving the wraparound point a bit,
e.g. to 1960, in order to deal with timestamps that ended up on Dec 31,
1969 due to incorrect timezone handling. However, this would complicate
the implementation unnecessarily, so I went with the simplest possible
method of extending the timestamps.
Writing files with timestamps before 1970 or after 2106 now results
in those times being clamped in the file system.

The VFS now uses timespec64 timestamps consistently, but jffs2 still
converts them to 32-bit numbers on the storage medium. As the helper
functions for the conversion (get_seconds() and timespec_to_timespec64())
are now deprecated, let's change them over to the more modern
replacements.
This keeps the traditional interpretation of those values, where
the on-disk 32-bit numbers are taken to be negative numbers, i.e.
dates before 1970, on 32-bit machines, but future numbers past 2038
on 64-bit machines.

This is a late set of changes from Deepa Dinamani doing an automated
treewide conversion of the inode and iattr structures from 'timespec'
to 'timespec64', to push the conversion from the VFS layer into the
individual file systems.
There were no conflicts between this and the contents of linux-next
until just before the merge window, when we saw multiple problems:
- A minor conflict with my own y2038 fixes, which I could address
by adding another patch on top here.
- One semantic conflict with late changes to the NFS tree. I addressed
this by merging Deepa's original branch on top of the changes that
now got merged into mainline and making sure the merge commit includes
the necessary changes as produced by coccinelle.
- A trivial conflict against the removal of staging/lustre.
- Multiple conflicts against the VFS changes in the overlayfs tree.
These are still part of linux-next, but apparently this is no longer
intended for 4.18 [1], so I am ignoring that part.
As Deepa writes:
The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64.
Currently vfs uses struct timespec, which is not y2038 safe.
The series involves the following:
1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64 timestamps.
2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch.
3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual
replacement becomes easy.
4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script.
This is a flag day patch.
Next steps:
1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, instead of converting
timestamps at the boundaries.
2. Update internal data structures to avoid timestamp conversions.
Thomas Gleixner adds:
I think there is no point to drag that out for the next merge window.
The whole thing needs to be done in one go for the core changes which
means that you're going to play that catchup game forever. Let's get
over with it towards the end of the merge window.

For anything NFS-exported we do _not_ want to unlock new inode
before it has grown an alias; original set of fixes got the
ordering right, but missed the nasty complication in case of
lockdep being enabled - unlock_new_inode() does
lockdep_annotate_inode_mutex_key(inode)
which can only be done before anyone gets a chance to touch
->i_mutex. Unfortunately, flipping the order and doing
unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate() opens a window when
mkdir can race with open-by-fhandle on a guessed fhandle, leading
to multiple aliases for a directory inode and all the breakage
that follows from that.
Correct solution: a new primitive (d_instantiate_new())
combining these two in the right order - lockdep annotate, then
d_instantiate(), then the rest of unlock_new_inode(). All
combinations of d_instantiate() with unlock_new_inode() should
be converted to that.

Merge tag 'docs-4.16' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"Documentation updates for 4.16.
New stuff includes refcount_t documentation, errseq documentation,
kernel-doc support for nested structure definitions, the removal of
lots of crufty kernel-doc support for unused formats, SPDX tag
documentation, the beginnings of a manual for subsystem maintainers,
and lots of fixes and updates.
As usual, some of the changesets reach outside of Documentation/ to
effect kerneldoc comment fixes. It also adds the new LICENSES
directory, of which Thomas promises I do not need to be the
maintainer"
