Ryusuke Konishi 973bec34bf nilfs2: fix sync silent failure
As of 32a88aa1, __sync_filesystem() will return 0 if s_bdi is not set.
And nilfs does not set s_bdi anywhere.  I noticed this problem by the
warning introduced by the recent commit 5129a469 ("Catch filesystem
lacking s_bdi").

Ryusuke Konishi e605f0a724 nilfs2: get rid of s_dirt flag use
This replaces s_dirt flag use in nilfs with a new flag added on the
nilfs object.  The s_dirt flag was used to indicate if
sop->write_super() should be called, however the current version of
nilfs does not use the callback.  Thus, it can be replaced with the
own flag.

Ryusuke Konishi fe5f171bb2 nilfs2: fix potential hang in nilfs_error on errors=remount-ro
nilfs_error() calls nilfs_detach_segment_constructor() if
errors=remount-ro option is specified, and this may lead to a hang due
to recursive locking of, for instance, nilfs->ns_segctor_sem and
others.

In this case, detaching segment constructor is not necessary because
read-only flag is set to the filesystem and further writes are
blocked.

This fixes the potential hang issue by removing the
nilfs_detach_segment_constructor() call from nilfs_error.

Ryusuke Konishi 0234576d04 nilfs2: add norecovery mount option
This adds "norecovery" mount option which disables temporal write
access to read-only mounts or snapshots during mount/recovery.
Without this option, write access will be even performed for those

This option will be helpful when user wants to prevent any write
access to the device.

Ryusuke Konishi f50a4c8149 nilfs2: move recovery completion into load_nilfs function
Although mount recovery of nilfs is integrated in load_nilfs()
procedure, the completion of recovery was isolated from the procedure
and performed at the end of the fill_super routine.

This was somewhat confusing since the recovery is needed for the nilfs
object, not for a super block instance.

To resolve the inconsistency, this will integrate the recovery
completion into load_nilfs().

it looks like that calling back is ommited when disk I/O is busy.
And when cleanerd (nilfs GC) is runnig, disk I/O tend to be busy thus

Ryusuke Konishi e59399d010 nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount function
nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance.  Even
though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or
remount, the mount state was not properly protected in
nilfs_remount().

Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem;
nilfs_get_sb() holds:

  1. bdev->bd_mount_sem
  2. sb->s_umount  (sget acquires)

and nilfs_remount() holds:

  1. sb->s_umount  (locked by the caller in vfs)
  2. bdev->bd_mount_sem

To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting
super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount
state protection in nilfs_remount().

With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and
the lock order reversal will be resolved.  And the new rw-semaphore,
nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the
modification from nilfs_error function.

Ryusuke Konishi 612392307c nilfs2: support nanosecond timestamp
After a review of user's feedback for finding out other compatibility
issues, I found nilfs improperly initializes timestamps in inode;
CURRENT_TIME was used there instead of CURRENT_TIME_SEC even though nilfs
didn't have nanosecond timestamps on disk.  A few users gave us the report
that the tar program sometimes failed to expand symbolic links on nilfs,
and it turned out to be the cause.

Instead of applying the above displacement, I've decided to support
nanosecond timestamps on this occation.  Fortunetaly, a needless 64-bit
field was in the nilfs_inode struct, and I found it's available for this
purpose without impact for the users.

So, this will do the enhancement and resolve the tar problem.

Ryusuke Konishi e339ad31f5 nilfs2: introduce secondary super block
The former versions didn't have extra super blocks.  This improves the
weak point by introducing another super block at unused region in tail of

This doesn't break disk format compatibility; older versions just ingore
the secondary super block, and new versions just recover it if it doesn't
exist.  The partition created by an old mkfs may not have unused region,
but in that case, the secondary super block will not be added.

This doesn't make more redundant copies of the super block; it is a future
work.

Ryusuke Konishi cece552074 nilfs2: simplify handling of active state of segments
will reduce some lines of segment constructor.  Previously, the state was
complexly controlled through a list of segments in order to keep
consistency in meta data of usage state of segments.  Instead, this
presents ``calculated'' active flags to userland cleaner program and stop
maintaining its real flag on disk.

Only by this fake flag, the cleaner cannot exactly know if each segment is
reclaimable or not.  However, the recent extension of nilfs_sustat ioctl
struct (nilfs2-extend-nilfs_sustat-ioctl-struct.patch) can prevent the
cleaner from reclaiming in-use segment wrongly.

So, now I can apply this for simplification.

Ryusuke Konishi e626874685 nilfs2: super block operations fix endian bug
This adds a missing endian conversion of checksum field in the super
block.  This fixes compatibility issue on big endian machines which will
come to surface after supporting recovery of super block.

Ryusuke Konishi 1f5abe7e7d nilfs2: replace BUG_ON and BUG calls triggerable from ioctl
Pekka Enberg advised me:
> It would be nice if BUG(), BUG_ON(), and panic() calls would be
> converted to proper error handling using WARN_ON() calls. The BUG()
> call in nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints(), for example, looks to be
> triggerable from user-space via the ioctl() system call.

This will follow the comment and keep them to a minimum.

Ryusuke Konishi 2c2e52fc4f nilfs2: extend nilfs_sustat ioctl struct
This adds a new argument to the nilfs_sustat structure.

The extended field allows to delete volatile active state of segments,
which was needed to protect freshly-created segments from garbage
collection but has confused code dealing with segments.  This
extension alleviates the mess and gives room for further
simplifications.

The volatile active flag is not persistent, so it's eliminable on this
occasion without affecting compatibility other than the ioctl change.

Ryusuke Konishi a2e7d2df82 nilfs2: cleanup nilfs_clear_inode
This will remove the following unnecessary locks and cleanup code in
nilfs_clear_inode():

- unnecessary protection using nilfs_transaction_begin() and
  nilfs_transaction_end().

- cleanup code of i_dirty list field which is never chained
  when this function is called.

- spinlock used when releasing i_bh field.
