The del_gendisk() function uninitializes the disk-specific data

If the user explicitly specifies conflicting mount options for
delalloc or dioread_nolock and data=journal, fail the mount, instead
of printing a warning and continuing (since many user's won't look at
dmesg and notice the warning).
Also, print a single warning that data=journal implies that delayed
allocation is not on by default (since it's not supported), and
furthermore that O_DIRECT is not supported. Improve the text in
Documentation/filesystems/ext4.txt so this is clear there as well.
Similarly, if the dioread_nolock mount option is specified when the
file system block size != PAGE_SIZE, fail the mount instead of
printing a warning message and ignoring the mount option.

Flush inode's i_completed_io_list before calling ext4_io_wait to
prevent the following deadlock scenario: A page fault happens while
some process is writing inode A. During page fault,
shrink_icache_memory is called that in turn evicts another inode
B. Inode B has some pending io_end work so it calls ext4_ioend_wait()
that waits for inode B's i_ioend_count to become zero. However, inode
B's ioend work was queued behind some of inode A's ioend work on the
same cpu's ext4-dio-unwritten workqueue. As the ext4-dio-unwritten
thread on that cpu is processing inode A's ioend work, it tries to
grab inode A's i_mutex lock. Since the i_mutex lock of inode A is
still hold before the page fault happened, we enter a deadlock.
Also moves ext4_flush_completed_IO and ext4_ioend_wait from
ext4_destroy_inode() to ext4_evict_inode(). During inode deleteion,
ext4_evict_inode() is called before ext4_destroy_inode() and in
ext4_evict_inode(), we may call ext4_truncate() without holding
i_mutex lock. As a result, there is a race between flush_completed_IO
that is called from ext4_ext_truncate() and ext4_end_io_work, which
may cause corruption on an io_end structure. This change moves
ext4_flush_completed_IO and ext4_ioend_wait from ext4_destroy_inode()
to ext4_evict_inode() to resolve the race between ext4_truncate() and
ext4_end_io_work during inode deletion.

Kazuya Mio reported that he was able to hit BUG_ON(next == lblock)
in ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache() while creating a sparse file in extent
format and fill the tail of file up to its end. We will hit the BUG_ON
when we write the last block (2^32-1) into the sparse file.
The root cause of the problem lies in the fact that we specifically set
s_maxbytes so that block at s_maxbytes fit into on-disk extent format,
which is 32 bit long. However, we are not storing start and end block
number, but rather start block number and length in blocks. It means
that in order to cover extent from 0 to EXT_MAX_BLOCK we need
EXT_MAX_BLOCK+1 to fit into len (because we counting block 0 as well) -
and it does not.
The only way to fix it without changing the meaning of the struct
ext4_extent members is, as Kazuya Mio suggested, to lower s_maxbytes
by one fs block so we can cover the whole extent we can get by the
on-disk extent format.
Also in many places EXT_MAX_BLOCK is used as length instead of maximum
logical block number as the name suggests, it is all a bit messy. So
this commit renames it to EXT_MAX_BLOCKS and change its usage in some
places to actually be maximum number of blocks in the extent.
The bug which this commit fixes can be reproduced as follows:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/mp1/file bs=<blocksize> count=1 seek=$((2**32-2))
sync
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/mp1/file bs=<blocksize> count=1 seek=$((2**32-1))

After creating an ext4 file system without a journal:

"/dev/sda /test ext4 rw,relatime,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=writeback 0 0"
which can fool users into thinking that the fs is using writeback mode.
So don't set the writeback option when the journal has not been

has been woken up earlier and in next iteration we call add_timer() on
still running timer hence hitting BUG_ON in add_timer(). We could fix
that by using mod_timer() instead however we can use
schedule_timeout_interruptible() for waiting and hence simplifying
things a lot.
This commit exchange the old "waiting mechanism" with simple

ext4 has a data corruption case when doing non-block-aligned
asynchronous direct IO into a sparse file, as demonstrated
by xfstest 240.
The root cause is that while ext4 preallocates space in the
hole, mappings of that space still look "new" and
dio_zero_block() will zero out the unwritten portions. When
more than one AIO thread is going, they both find this "new"
block and race to zero out their portion; this is uncoordinated
and causes data corruption.
Dave Chinner fixed this for xfs by simply serializing all
unaligned asynchronous direct IO. I've done the same here.
The difference is that we only wait on conversions, not all IO.
This is a very big hammer, and I'm not very pleased with
stuffing this into ext4_file_write(). But since ext4 is
DIO_LOCKING, we need to serialize it at this high level.
I tried to move this into ext4_ext_direct_IO, but by then
we have the i_mutex already, and we will wait on the
work queue to do conversions - which must also take the
i_mutex. So that won't work.
This was originally exposed by qemu-kvm installing to
a raw disk image with a normal sector-63 alignment. I've
tested a backport of this patch with qemu, and it does
avoid the corruption. It is also quite a lot slower
(14 min for package installs, vs. 8 min for well-aligned)
but I'll take slow correctness over fast corruption any day.
Mingming suggested that we can track outstanding
conversions, and wait on those so that non-sparse
files won't be affected, and I've implemented that here;
unaligned AIO to nonsparse files won't take a perf hit.

If the lazyinit thread is running, the teardown function
ext4_destroy_lazyinit_thread() has problems:
ext4_clear_request_list();
while (ext4_li_info->li_task) {
wake_up(&ext4_li_info->li_wait_daemon);
wait_event(ext4_li_info->li_wait_task,
ext4_li_info->li_task == NULL);
}
Clearing the request list will cause the thread to exit and free
ext4_li_info, so then we're waiting on something which is getting
freed.
Fix this up by making the thread respond to kthread_stop, and exit,
without the need to wait for that exit in some other homegrown way.

As Al Viro pointed out path resolution during Q_QUOTAON calls to quotactl
is prone to deadlocks. We hold s_umount semaphore for reading during the
path resolution and resolution itself may need to acquire the semaphore
for writing when e. g. autofs mountpoint is passed.
Solve the problem by performing the resolution before we get hold of the
superblock (and thus s_umount semaphore). The whole thing is complicated
by the fact that some filesystems (OCFS2) ignore the path argument. So to
distinguish between filesystem which want the path and which do not we
introduce new .quota_on_meta callback which does not get the path. OCFS2
then uses this callback instead of old .quota_on.

Replace the jbd2_inode structure (which is 48 bytes) with a pointer

RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:
- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
page lock to follow page->mapping.
The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.
In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.
The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

Jon Nelson has found a test case which causes postgresql to fail with
the error:
psql:t.sql:4: ERROR: invalid page header in block 38269 of relation base/16384/16581
Under memory pressure, it looks like part of a file can end up getting
replaced by zero's. Until we can figure out the cause, we'll roll
back the change and use block_write_full_page() instead of
ext4_bio_write_page(). The new, more efficient writing function can
be used via the mount option mblk_io_submit, so we can test and fix
the new page I/O code.
To reproduce the problem, install postgres 8.4 or 9.0, and pin enough
memory such that the system just at the end of triggering writeback
before running the following sql script:
begin;
create temporary table foo as select x as a, ARRAY[x] as b FROM
generate_series(1, 10000000 ) AS x;
create index foo_a_idx on foo (a);
create index foo_b_idx on foo USING GIN (b);
rollback;
If the temporary table is created on a hard drive partition which is
encrypted using dm_crypt, then under memory pressure, approximately
30-40% of the time, pgsql will issue the above failure.
This patch should fix this problem, and the problem will come back if
the file system is mounted with the mblk_io_submit mount option.

At the start of ext4_fill_super, ret is set to -EINVAL, and any failure path
out of that function returns ret. However, the generic_check_addressable
clause sets ret = 0 (if it passes), which means that a subsequent failure (e.g.
a group checksum error) returns 0 even though the mount should fail. This
causes vfs_kern_mount in turn to think that the mount succeeded, leading to an
oops.
A simple fix is to avoid using ret for the generic_check_addressable check,
which was last changed in commit 30ca22c70e.

After recent blkdev_get() modifications, open_by_devnum() and
open_bdev_exclusive() are simple wrappers around blkdev_get().
Replace them with blkdev_get_by_dev() and blkdev_get_by_path().
blkdev_get_by_dev() is identical to open_by_devnum().
blkdev_get_by_path() is slightly different in that it doesn't
automatically add %FMODE_EXCL to @mode.
All users are converted. Most conversions are mechanical and don't
introduce any behavior difference. There are several exceptions.
* btrfs now sets FMODE_EXCL in btrfs_device->mode, so there's no
reason to OR it explicitly on blkdev_put().
* gfs2, nilfs2 and the generic mount_bdev() now set FMODE_EXCL in
sb->s_mode.
* With the above changes, sb->s_mode now always should contain
FMODE_EXCL. WARN_ON_ONCE() added to kill_block_super() to detect
errors.
The new blkdev_get_*() functions are with proper docbook comments.
While at it, add function description to blkdev_get() too.

Over time, block layer has accumulated a set of APIs dealing with bdev
open, close, claim and release.
* blkdev_get/put() are the primary open and close functions.
* bd_claim/release() deal with exclusive open.
* open/close_bdev_exclusive() are combination of open and claim and
the other way around, respectively.
* bd_link/unlink_disk_holder() to create and remove holder/slave
symlinks.
* open_by_devnum() wraps bdget() + blkdev_get().
The interface is a bit confusing and the decoupling of open and claim
makes it impossible to properly guarantee exclusive access as
in-kernel open + claim sequence can disturb the existing exclusive
open even before the block layer knows the current open if for another
exclusive access. Reorganize the interface such that,
* blkdev_get() is extended to include exclusive access management.
@holder argument is added and, if is @FMODE_EXCL specified, it will
gain exclusive access atomically w.r.t. other exclusive accesses.
* blkdev_put() is similarly extended. It now takes @mode argument and
if @FMODE_EXCL is set, it releases an exclusive access. Also, when
the last exclusive claim is released, the holder/slave symlinks are
removed automatically.
* bd_claim/release() and close_bdev_exclusive() are no longer
necessary and either made static or removed.
* bd_link_disk_holder() remains the same but bd_unlink_disk_holder()
is no longer necessary and removed.
* open_bdev_exclusive() becomes a simple wrapper around lookup_bdev()
and blkdev_get(). It also has an unexpected extra bdev_read_only()
test which probably should be moved into blkdev_get().
* open_by_devnum() is modified to take @holder argument and pass it to
blkdev_get().
Most of bdev open/close operations are unified into blkdev_get/put()
and most exclusive accesses are tested atomically at the open time (as
it should). This cleans up code and removes some, both valid and
invalid, but unnecessary all the same, corner cases.
open_bdev_exclusive() and open_by_devnum() can use further cleanup -
rename to blkdev_get_by_path() and blkdev_get_by_devt() and drop
special features. Well, let's leave them for another day.
Most conversions are straight-forward. drbd conversion is a bit more
involved as there was some reordering, but the logic should stay the
same.

The following BUG can occur when an inode which is getting freed when
it still has dirty pages outstanding, and it gets deleted (in this
because it was the target of a rename). In ordered mode, we need to
make sure the data pages are written just in case we crash before the
rename (or unlink) is committed. If the inode is being freed then
when we try to igrab the inode, we end up tripping the BUG_ON at
fs/ext4/page-io.c:146.
To solve this problem, we need to keep track of the number of io
callbacks which are pending, and avoid destroying the inode until they
have all been completed. That way we don't have to bump the inode
count to keep the inode from being destroyed; an approach which
doesn't work because the count could have already been dropped down to
zero before the inode writeback has started (at which point we're not
allowed to bump the count back up to 1, since it's already started
getting freed).
Thanks to Dave Chinner for suggesting this approach, which is also
used by XFS.

Commit 84061e0 fixed an accounting bug only to introduce the
possibility of a kernel OOPS if the journal has a non-zero j_errno
field indicating that the file system had detected a fs inconsistency.
After the journal replay, if the journal superblock indicates that the
file system has an error, this indication is transfered to the file
system and then ext4_commit_super() is called to write this to the
disk.
But since the percpu counters are now initialized after the journal
replay, the call to ext4_commit_super() will cause a kernel oops since
it needs to use the percpu counters the ext4 superblock structure.
The fix is to skip setting the ext4 free block and free inode fields
if the percpu counter has not been set.

Walk through allocation groups and trim all free extents. It can be

may suffer from performance loss after the whole device was filled (it
does not mean that fs is full!).
It search for free extents in allocation groups specified by Byte range
start -> start+len. When the free extent is within this range, blocks
are marked as used and then trimmed. Afterwards these blocks are marked
as free in per-group bitmap.
Since fstrim is a long operation it is good to have an ability to
interrupt it by a signal. This was added by Dmitry Monakhov.

An ext4 filesystem on a read-only device, with an external journal
which is at a different device number then recorded in the superblock
will fail to honor the read-only setting of the device and trigger
a superblock update (write).
For example:
- ext4 on a software raid which is in read-only mode
- external journal on a read-write device which has changed device num
- attempt to mount with -o journal_dev=<new_number>
- hits BUG_ON(mddev->ro = 1) in md.c

User-space should have the opportunity to check what features doest ext4
support in each particular copy. This adds easy interface by creating new
"features" directory in sys/fs/ext4/. In that directory files

Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
When the lazy_itable_init extended option is passed to mke2fs, it
considerably speeds up filesystem creation because inode tables are
not zeroed out. The fact that parts of the inode table are
uninitialized is not a problem so long as the block group descriptors,
which contain information regarding how much of the inode table has
been initialized, has not been corrupted However, if the block group
checksums are not valid, e2fsck must scan the entire inode table, and
the the old, uninitialized data could potentially cause e2fsck to
report false problems.
Hence, it is important for the inode tables to be initialized as soon
as possble. This commit adds this feature so that mke2fs can safely
use the lazy inode table initialization feature to speed up formatting
file systems.
This is done via a new new kernel thread called ext4lazyinit, which is
created on demand and destroyed, when it is no longer needed. There
is only one thread for all ext4 filesystems in the system. When the
first filesystem with inititable mount option is mounted, ext4lazyinit
thread is created, then the filesystem can register its request in the
request list.
This thread then walks through the list of requests picking up
scheduled requests and invoking ext4_init_inode_table(). Next schedule
time for the request is computed by multiplying the time it took to
zero out last inode table with wait multiplier, which can be set with
the (init_itable=n) mount option (default is 10). We are doing
this so we do not take the whole I/O bandwidth. When the thread is no
longer necessary (request list is empty) it frees the appropriate
structures and exits (and can be created later later by another
filesystem).
We do not disturb regular inode allocations in any way, it just do not
care whether the inode table is, or is not zeroed. But when zeroing, we
have to skip used inodes, obviously. Also we should prevent new inode
allocations from the group, while zeroing is on the way. For that we
take write alloc_sem lock in ext4_init_inode_table() and read alloc_sem

This patch is a preparation necessary to remove the BKL from do_new_mount().
It explicitly adds calls to lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() around
get_sb/fill_super operations for filesystems that still uses the BKL.
I've read through all the code formerly covered by the BKL inside
do_kern_mount() and have satisfied myself that it doesn't need the BKL
any more.
do_kern_mount() is already called without the BKL when mounting the rootfs
and in nfsctl. do_kern_mount() calls vfs_kern_mount(), which is called
from various places without BKL: simple_pin_fs(), nfs_do_clone_mount()
through nfs_follow_mountpoint(), afs_mntpt_do_automount() through
afs_mntpt_follow_link(). Both later functions are actually the filesystems
follow_link inode operation. vfs_kern_mount() is calling the specified
get_sb function and lets the filesystem do its job by calling the given
fill_super function.
Therefore I think it is safe to push down the BKL from the VFS to the
low-level filesystems get_sb/fill_super operation.
[arnd: do not add the BKL to those file systems that already
don't use it elsewhere]

Commit 6b0310fbf0 caused a regression resulting in deadlocks
when freezing a filesystem which had active IO; the vfs_check_frozen
level (SB_FREEZE_WRITE) did not let the freeze-related IO syncing
through. Duh.
Changing the test to FREEZE_TRANS should let the normal freeze
syncing get through the fs, but still block any transactions from
starting once the fs is completely frozen.
I tested this by running fsstress in the background while periodically
snapshotting the fs and running fsck on the result. I ran into
occasional deadlocks, but different ones. I think this is a
fine fix for the problem at hand, and the other deadlocky things
will need more investigation.

Currently the VFS calls into the quotactl interface for unmounting

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

* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)

* potentially better optimized code as the compiler

In the past, ext4_calc_metadata_amount(), and its sub-functions
ext4_ext_calc_metadata_amount() and ext4_indirect_calc_metadata_amount()
badly over-estimated the number of metadata blocks that might be
required for delayed allocation blocks. This didn't matter as much
when functions which managed the reserved metadata blocks were more
aggressive about dropping reserved metadata blocks as delayed
allocation blocks were written, but unfortunately they were too
aggressive. This was fixed in commit 0637c6f, but as a result the
over-estimation by ext4_calc_metadata_amount() would lead to reserving
2-3 times the number of pending delayed allocation blocks as
potentially required metadata blocks. So if there are 1 megabytes of
blocks which have been not yet been allocation, up to 3 megabytes of
space would get reserved out of the user's quota and from the file
system free space pool until all of the inode's data blocks have been
allocated.
This commit addresses this problem by much more accurately estimating
the number of metadata blocks that will be required. It will still
somewhat over-estimate the number of blocks needed, since it must make
a worst case estimate not knowing which physical blocks will be
needed, but it is much more accurate than before.

We have 2 mount options, "barrier" and "auto_da_alloc" which may or
may not take a 1/0 argument. This causes the ext4 superblock mount
code to subtract uninitialized pointers and pass the result to
kmalloc, which results in very noisy failures.
Per Ted's suggestion, initialize the args struct so that
we know whether match_token() found an argument for the
option, and skip match_int() if not.
Also, return error (0) from parse_options if we thought
we found an argument, but match_int() Fails.

There is a potential race when a transaction is committing right when
the file system is being umounting. This could reduce in a race
because EXT4_SB(sb)->s_group_info could be freed in ext4_put_super
before the commit code calls a callback so the mballoc code can
release freed blocks in the transaction, resulting in a panic trying
to access the freed s_group_info.
The fix is to wait for the transaction to finish committing before we
shutdown the multiblock allocator.

This reverts commit d0646f7b63, as
requested by Eric Sandeen.
It can basically cause an ext4 filesystem to miss recovery (and thus get
mounted with errors) if the journal checksum does not match.
Quoth Eric:
"My hand-wavy hunch about what is happening is that we're finding a
bad checksum on the last partially-written transaction, which is
not surprising, but if we have a wrapped log and we're doing the
initial scan for head/tail, and we abort scanning on that bad
checksum, then we are essentially running an unrecovered filesystem.
But that's hand-wavy and I need to go look at the code.
We lived without journal checksums on by default until now, and at
this point they're doing more harm than good, so we should revert
the default-changing commit until we can fix it and do some good
power-fail testing with the fixes in place."

For async direct IO that covers holes or fallocate, the end_io
callback function now queued the convertion work on workqueue but
don't flush the work rightaway as it might take too long to afford.
But when fsync is called after all the data is completed, user expects
the metadata also being updated before fsync returns.
Thus we need to flush the conversion work when fsync() is called.
This patch keep track of a listed of completed async direct io that
has a work queued on workqueue. When fsync() is called, it will go
through the list and do the conversion.

Currently the DIO VFS code passes create = 0 when writing to the
middle of file. It does this to avoid block allocation for holes, so
as not to expose stale data out when there is a parallel buffered read
(which does not hold the i_mutex lock). Direct I/O writes into holes
falls back to buffered IO for this reason.
Since preallocated extents are treated as holes when doing a
get_block() look up (buffer is not mapped), direct IO over fallocate
also falls back to buffered IO. Thus ext4 actually silently falls
back to buffered IO in above two cases, which is undesirable.
To fix this, this patch creates unitialized extents when a direct I/O
write into holes in sparse files, and registering an end_io callback which
converts the uninitialized extent to an initialized extent after the
I/O is completed.

Work around problems in the writeback code to force out writebacks in
larger chunks than just 4mb, which is just too small. This also works
around limitations in the ext4 block allocator, which can't allocate
more than 2048 blocks at a time. So we need to defeat the round-robin
characteristics of the writeback code and try to write out as many
blocks in one inode before allowing the writeback code to move on to
another inode. We add a a new per-filesystem tunable,
max_writeback_mb_bump, which caps this to a default of 128mb per
inode.

Today, the ext4 allocator will happily allocate blocks past
2^32 for indirect-block files, which results in the block
numbers getting truncated, and corruption ensues.
This patch limits such allocations to < 2^32, and adds
BUG_ONs if we do get blocks larger than that.
This should address RH Bug 519471, ext4 bitmap allocator
must limit blocks to < 2^32
* ext4_find_goal() is modified to choose a goal < UINT_MAX,
so that our starting point is in an acceptable range.
* ext4_xattr_block_set() is modified such that the goal block
is < UINT_MAX, as above.
* ext4_mb_regular_allocator() is modified so that the group
search does not continue into groups which are too high
* ext4_mb_use_preallocated() has a check that we don't use
preallocated space which is too far out
* ext4_alloc_blocks() and ext4_xattr_block_set() add some BUG_ONs
No attempt has been made to limit inode locations to < 2^32,
so we may wind up with blocks far from their inodes. Doing
this much already will lead to some odd ENOSPC issues when the
"lower 32" gets full, and further restricting inodes could
make that even weirder.
For high inodes, choosing a goal of the original, % UINT_MAX,
may be a bit odd, but then we're in an odd situation anyway,
and I don't know of a better heuristic.

A user reported that although his root ext4 filesystem was mounting
fine, other filesystems would not mount, with the:
"Filesystem with huge files cannot be mounted RDWR without CONFIG_LBDAF"

the test at mount time for this situation was not being re-checked
on remount, and the normal boot process makes an ro->rw transition,
so this was being missed.

Enhance the inode allocator to take a goal inode number as a
paremeter; if it is specified, it takes precedence over Orlov or
parent directory inode allocation algorithms.
The extents migration function uses the goal inode number so that the
extent trees allocated the migration function use the correct flex_bg.
In the future, the goal inode functionality will also be used to
allocate an adjacent inode for the extended attributes.
Also, for testing purposes the goal inode number can be specified via

We can't run into contention on it. All other callers of lock_super()
either hold s_umount (and we have it exclusive) or hold an active
reference to superblock in question, which prevents the call of
generic_shutdown_super() while the reference is held. So we can
replace lock_super(s) with get_fs_excl() in generic_shutdown_super()
(and corresponding change for unlock_super(), of course).
Since ext4 expects s_lock held for its put_super, take lock_super()
into it. The rest of filesystems do not care at all.

Ext4's on-line resizing adds a new block group and then, only at the
last step adjusts s_groups_count. However, it's possible on SMP
systems that another CPU could see the updated the s_group_count and
not see the newly initialized data structures for the just-added block
group. For this reason, it's important to insert a SMP read barrier
after reading s_groups_count and before reading any (for example) the
new block group descriptors allowed by the increased value of
s_groups_count.
Unfortunately, we rather blatently violate this locking protocol
documented in fs/ext4/resize.c. Fortunately, (1) on-line resizes
happen relatively rarely, and (2) it seems rare that the filesystem
code will immediately try to use just-added block group before any
memory ordering issues resolve themselves. So apparently problems
here are relatively hard to hit, since ext3 has been vulnerable to the
same issue for years with no one apparently complaining.

should have, with the result that the high-level write_super()
function was writing the superblock when it wasn't necessary.
So we fix this by making ext4_commit_super() clear the s_dirt flag,
and removing many of the other places where s_dirt is manipulated.
When journalling is enabled, the s_dirt flag might be left set more
often, but s_dirt really doesn't matter when journalling is enabled.

For very large filesystems, the s_flex_groups array can get quite big.
For example, a filesystem that can be resized up to 16TB will have
8192 flex groups (assuming the default flex_bg size of 16), so the
array is 96k, which is *very* marginal for kmalloc(). On the other
hand, a 160GB filesystem without the resize_inode feature will only
require 960 bytes. So we try to allocate the array first using
kmalloc(), and if that fails, we'll try to use vmalloc() instead.

Add a mount option which allows the user to disable automatic
allocation of blocks whose allocation by delayed allocation when the
file was originally truncated or when the file is renamed over an
existing file. This feature is intended to save users from the
effects of naive application writers, but it reduces the effectiveness
of the delayed allocation code. This mount option disables this
safety feature, which may be desirable for prodcutions systems where
the risk of unclean shutdowns or unexpected system crashes is low.

As spotted by kmemtrace, struct ext4_sb_info is 17664 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 ext4_sb_info
enough to fit a 2 KB slab cache so now we allocate 16 KB + 2 KB instead of
32 KB saving 14 KB of memory.

This undoes commit 14ce0cb411.
Since jbd2_journal_start_commit() is now fixed to return 1 when we
started a transaction commit, there's some transaction waiting to be
committed or there's a transaction already committing, we don't
need to call ext4_force_commit() in ext4_sync_fs(). Furthermore
ext4_force_commit() can unnecessarily create sync transaction which is
expensive so it's worthwhile to remove it when we can.

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.

This mount option is largely superfluous, and in fact the way it was
implemented was buggy; if a filesystem which did not have the extents
feature flag was mounted -o extents, the filesystem would attempt to
create and use extents-based file even though the extents feature flag
was not eabled. The simplest thing to do is to nuke the mount option
entirely. It's not all that useful to force the non-creation of new
extent-based files if the filesystem can support it.

Pages in the page cache belonging to ext4 data files are released via
the ext4_releasepage() function specified in the ext4 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 release_metadata function which calls
jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() function to free the metadata, and
which is called by the block device's blkdev_releasepage() function.

A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run
without a journal. Since that time I've integrated the excellent
comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs. We're currently
running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without
a journal. It just so happens that running without a journal is
slightly faster for most everything.
We did
iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2
which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
to bypass the page cache. Results:
ext2 ext4, default ext4, no journal
initial writes 13.0 MB/s 15.4 MB/s 15.7 MB/s
rewrites 13.1 MB/s 15.6 MB/s 15.9 MB/s
reads 15.2 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s
re-reads 15.3 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s
random readers 5.6 MB/s 5.6 MB/s 5.7 MB/s
random writers 5.1 MB/s 5.3 MB/s 5.4 MB/s
So it seems that, so far, this was a useful exercise.

In ext4_sync_fs, we only wait for a commit to finish if we started it,
but there may be one already in progress which will not be synced.
In the case of a data=ordered umount with pending long symlinks which
are delayed due to a long list of other I/O on the backing block
device, this causes the buffer associated with the long symlinks to
not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of
fsync_super. Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits,
seeing the UMOUNT flag and the dirty pages are never written to the
backing block device, causing long symlink corruption and exposing new
or previously freed block data to userspace.
To ensure all commits are synced, we flush all journal commits now
when sync_fs'ing ext4.

If the journal doesn't abort when it gets an IO error in file data
blocks, the file data corruption will spread silently. Because
most of applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(),
they don't notice the IO error. It's scary for mission critical
systems. On the other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets
an IO error in file data blocks, the system will easily become
inoperable. So this patch introduces a filesystem option to
determine whether it aborts the journal or just call printk() when
it gets an IO error in file data.
If you mount an ext4 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file
data write error. If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't
abort, just call printk(). data_err=ignore is the default.
Here is the corresponding patch of the ext3 version:

If the journal has aborted due to a checkpointing failure, we
have to keep the contents of the journal space. Otherwise, the
filesystem will lose uncheckpointed metadata completely and
become inconsistent. To avoid this, we need to keep needs_recovery
flag if checkpoint has failed.
With this patch, ext4_put_super() detects a checkpointing failure
from the return value of journal_destroy(), then it invokes
ext4_abort() to make the filesystem read only and keep
needs_recovery flag. Errors from jbd2_journal_flush() are also
handled by this patch in some places.

I noticed when filling a 1T filesystem with 4 threads using the
fs_mark benchmark:
fs_mark -d /mnt/test -D 256 -n 100000 -t 4 -s 20480 -F -S 0
that I occasionally got checksum mismatch errors:
EXT4-fs error (device sdb): ext4_init_inode_bitmap: Checksum bad for group 6935
etc. I'd reliably get 4-5 of them during the run.
It appears that the problem is likely a race to init the bg's
when the uninit_bg feature is enabled.
With the patch below, which adds sb_bgl_locking around initialization,
I was able to complete several runs with no errors or warnings.

We've talked for a while about getting rid of any feature-

set the INCOMPAT_EXTENTS flag on the first file write when mounted
as ext4[dev].
With this patch, if the extents feature is not already set on disk,
then mounting as ext4 will fall back to noextents with a warning,

The block mapped inode format can address only blocks within 2**32. This
causes a number of issues, the biggest of which is that the block
allocator needs to be taught that certain inodes can not utilize block
numbers > 2**32. So until this is fixed, it is simplest to fail
mounting of file systems with more than 2**32 blocks if the -o noextents
option is given.

This patch does block reservation for delayed

Blocks(data and metadata) are reserved at da_write_begin()

This patch mostly controls the way inode are allocated in order to
make ialloc aware of flex_bg block group grouping. It achieves this
by bypassing the Orlov allocator when block group meta-data are packed
toghether through mke2fs. Since the impact on the block allocator is
minimal, this patch should have little or no effect on other block
allocation algorithms. By controlling the inode allocation, it can
basically control where the initial search for new block begins and
thus indirectly manipulate the block allocator.
This allocator favors data and meta-data locality so the disk will
gradually be filled from block group zero upward. This helps improve
performance by reducing seek time. Since the group of inode tables
within one flex_bg are treated as one giant inode table, uninitialized
block groups would not need to partially initialize as many inode
table as with Orlov which would help fsck time as the filesystem usage
goes up.

- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a

This flag is simply a generic "this is a crash/burn test filesystem"

As we start rolling ext4 out to distro's like Fedora, et. al, this makes

The journal checksum feature adds two new flags i.e
JBD2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_ASYNC_COMMIT and JBD2_FEATURE_COMPAT_CHECKSUM.
JBD2_FEATURE_CHECKSUM flag indicates that the commit block contains the
checksum for the blocks described by the descriptor blocks.
Due to checksums, writing of the commit record no longer needs to be
synchronous. Now commit record can be sent to disk without waiting for
descriptor blocks to be written to disk. This behavior is controlled
using JBD2_FEATURE_ASYNC_COMMIT flag. Older kernels/e2fsck should not be
able to recover the journal with _ASYNC_COMMIT hence it is made
incompat.
The commit header has been extended to hold the checksum along with the
type of the checksum.
For recovery in pass scan checksums are verified to ensure the sanity

When mounting an ext4 filesystem with corrupted s_first_data_block, things
can go very wrong and oops.
Because blocks_count in ext4_fill_super is a u64, and we must use do_div,
the calculation of db_count is done differently than on ext4. If
first_data_block is corrupted such that it is larger than ext4_blocks_count,
for example, then the intermediate blocks_count value may go negative,
but sign-extend to a very large value:
blocks_count = (ext4_blocks_count(es) -
le32_to_cpu(es->s_first_data_block) +
EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) - 1);
This is then assigned to s_groups_count which is an unsigned long:
sbi->s_groups_count = blocks_count;
This may result in a value of 0xFFFFFFFF which is then used to compute
db_count:
db_count = (sbi->s_groups_count + EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb) - 1) /
EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb);
and in this case db_count will wind up as 0 because the addition overflows
32 bits. This in turn causes the kmalloc for group_desc to be of 0 size:
sbi->s_group_desc = kmalloc(db_count * sizeof (struct buffer_head *),
GFP_KERNEL);
and eventually in ext4_check_descriptors, dereferencing
sbi->s_group_desc[desc_block] will result in a NULL pointer dereference.
The simplest test seems to be to sanity check s_first_data_block,
EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP, and ext4_blocks_count values to be sure
their combination won't result in a bad intermediate value for
blocks_count. We could just check for db_count == 0, but
catching it at the root cause seems like it provides more info.

This patch set supports large block size(>4k, <=64k) in ext4,

code. The reason is that an empty 64kB directory block would have a
rec_len == (__u16)2^16 == 0, and this would cause an error to be hit in
the filesystem. The proposed solution is treat 64k rec_len
with a an impossible value like rec_len = 0xffff to handle this.
The Patch-set consists of the following 2 patches.
[1/2] ext4: enlarge blocksize
- Allow blocksize up to pagesize
