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.

With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.
The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.
Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).
This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

We should not allow user to change quota mount options when quota is just

Also we should not allow user to change quota format when quota is turned on.
On the other hand we can just silently ignore when some option is set to the
value it already has (some mount versions do this on remount). Finally, we
should not discard current quota options if parsing of mount options fails.

Quota files cannot have tails because quota_write and quota_read functions do
not support them. So far when quota files did have tail, we just refused to
turn quotas on it. Sadly this check has been wrong and so there are now
plenty installations where quota files don't have NOTAIL flag set and so now
after fixing the check, they suddently fail to turn quotas on. Since it's
easy to unpack the tail from kernel, do this from reiserfs_quota_on() which
solves the problem and is generally nicer to users anyway.

After several posts and bug reports regarding interaction with the NULL
nameidata, here's a patch to clean up the mess with struct file in the
reiserfs xattr code.
As observed in several of the posts, there's really no need for struct file
to exist in the xattr code. It was really only passed around due to the
f_op->readdir() and a_ops->{prepare,commit}_write prototypes requiring it.
reiserfs_prepare_write() and reiserfs_commit_write() don't actually use the
struct file passed to it, and the xattr code uses a private version of
reiserfs_readdir() to enumerate the xattr directories.

This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.
Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
<dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions
zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)
Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
makes code clearer.
zero_user_segment(page, start, end)
Same for a single segment.
zero_user(page, start, length)
Length variant for the case where we know the length.
We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:
1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.
2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.
Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.
Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
functions defined in highmem.h.
Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
functions are called.
Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

This is not a new problem in 2.6.23-git17. 2.6.22/2.6.23 is buggy in the
same way.
Reiserfs could accumulate dirty sub-page-size files until umount time.
They cannot be synced to disk by pdflush routines or explicit `sync'
commands. Only `umount' can do the trick.
The direct cause is: the dirty page's PG_dirty is wrongly _cleared_.

Fix the bug by removing the cancel_dirty_page() call. Tests show that
it causes no bad behaviors on various write sizes.
=== for the patient ===
Here are more detailed demonstrations of the problem.
1) the page has both PG_dirty(D)/PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY(d) after being written to;
and then only PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY(d) remains after the file is closed.

Implement support for file systems larger than 8 TiB.
The reiserfs superblock contains a 16 bit value for counting the number of
bitmap blocks. The rest of the disk format supports file systems up to 2^32
blocks, but the bitmap block limitation artificially limits this to 8 TiB with
a 4KiB block size.
Rather than trust the superblock's 16-bit bitmap block count, we calculate it
dynamically based on the number of blocks in the file system. When an
incorrect value is observed in the superblock, it is zeroed out, ensuring that
older kernels will not be able to mount the file system.
Userspace support has already been implemented and shipped in reiserfsprogs
3.6.20.

reiserfs_invalidatepage will refuse to free pages if they have been logged
in data=journal mode, or were pinned down by a data=ordered operation. For
data=journal, this is fairly easy to trigger just with fsx-linux, and it
results in a large number of pages hanging around on the LRUs with
page->mapping == NULL.
Calling try_to_free_buffers when reiserfs decides it is done with the page
allows it to be freed earlier, and with much less VM thrashing. Lock
ordering rules mean that reiserfs can't call lock_page when it is releasing
the buffers, so TestSetPageLocked is used instead. Contention on these
pages should be rare, so it should be sufficient most of the time.

Introduce is_owner_or_cap() macro in fs.h, and convert over relevant

where we check for only effective fsuid of the current task against a
file's owning uid, without simultaneously checking for CAP_FOWNER as
well, thus violating its semantics.
[ XFS uses special macros and structures, and in general looked ...
untouchable, so we leave it alone -- but it has been looked over. ]
The (current->fsuid != inode->i_uid) check in generic_permission() and
exec_permission_lite() is left alone, because those operations are
covered by CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE and CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH. Similarly operations
falling under the purview of CAP_CHOWN and CAP_LEASE are also left alone.

I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by
SLAB.
I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.
I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free. That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.
Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code
in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree).
There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.
This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.

The listxattr() and getxattr() operations are only protected by a read
lock. As a result, if either of these operations run in parallel, a race
condition exists where the xattr_root will end up being cached twice, which
results in the leaking of a reference and a BUG() on umount.
This patch refactors get_xa_root(), __get_xa_root(), and create_xa_root(),
into one get_xa_root() function that takes the appropriate locking around
the entire critical section.

Offset of reiserfs keys are compared as signed values. To set key offset
to maximal possible value maximal signed value has to be used.

Many struct inode_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const

This patch fixes a confusion reiserfs has for a long time.
On release file operation reiserfs used to try to pack file data stored in
last incomplete page of some files into metadata blocks. After packing the
page got cleared with clear_page_dirty. It did not take into account that
the page may be mmaped into other process's address space. Recent
replacement for clear_page_dirty cancel_dirty_page found the confusion with
sanity check that page has to be not mapped.
The patch fixes the confusion by making reiserfs avoid tail packing if an
inode was ever mmapped. reiserfs_mmap and reiserfs_file_release are
serialized with mutex in reiserfs specific inode. reiserfs_mmap locks the
mutex and sets a bit in reiserfs specific inode flags.
reiserfs_file_release checks the bit having the mutex locked. If bit is
set - tail packing is avoided. This eliminates a possibility that mmapped
page gets cancel_page_dirty-ed.

Upon debugging I found that the restart_transaction was not releasing

{
[...]
/* we cannot restart while nested */
if (th->t_refcount > 1) { <<- Path is not released in this case!
return 0;
}
pathrelse(path); <<- Path released here.
[...]
This could happen in such a situation :
In reiserfs/inode.c: reiserfs_get_block() ::
if (repeat == NO_DISK_SPACE || repeat == QUOTA_EXCEEDED) {
/* restart the transaction to give the journal a chance to free
** some blocks. releases the path, so we have to go back to
** research if we succeed on the second try
*/
SB_JOURNAL(inode->i_sb)->j_next_async_flush = 1;
-->> retval = restart_transaction(th, inode, &path); <<--
We are supposed to release the path, no matter we succeed or fail. But
if the th->refcount is > 1, the path is still valid. And,
if (retval)
goto failure;
repeat =
_allocate_block(th, block, inode,
&allocated_block_nr, NULL, create);
If the above allocate_block fails with NO_DISK_SPACE or QUOTA_EXCEEDED,
we would have path which is not released.
if (repeat != NO_DISK_SPACE && repeat != QUOTA_EXCEEDED) {
goto research;
}
if (repeat == QUOTA_EXCEEDED)
retval = -EDQUOT;
else
retval = -ENOSPC;
goto failure;
[...]
failure:
[...]
reiserfs_check_path(&path); << Panics here !
Attached here is a patch which could fix the issue.
fix reiserfs/inode.c : restart_transaction() to release the path in all
cases.
The restart_transaction() doesn't release the path when the the journal
handle has a refcount > 1. This would trigger a reiserfs_panic() if we
encounter an -ENOSPC / -EDQUOT in reiserfs_get_block().

These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when
communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required
because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS
for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace
automatically where the arch supports it.
Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode
number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and
failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and
so overlaps occur.
This patch:
Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit
inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace.
The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where
available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode
number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then
error EOVERFLOW will be issued.
Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode
number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a
directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented.
Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit
system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that
there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to.
Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a
32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the
same reasons.
It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc
uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions
exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter
unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

When a file system becomes fragmented (using MythTV, for example), the
bigalloc window searching ends up causing huge performance problems. In a
file system presented by a user experiencing this bug, the file system was
90% free, but no 32-block free windows existed on the entire file system.
This causes the allocator to scan the entire file system for each 128k
write before backing down to searching for individual blocks.
In the end, finding a contiguous window for all the blocks in a write is an
advantageous special case, but one that can be found naturally when such a
window exists anyway.
This patch removes the bigalloc window searching, and has been proven to
fix the test case described above.

This is the patch the three previous ones have been leading up to.
It changes the behavior of ReiserFS from loading and caching all the bitmaps
as special, to treating the bitmaps like any other bit of metadata and just
letting the system-wide caches figure out what to hang on to.
Buffer heads are allocated on the fly, so there is no need to retain pointers
to all of them. The caching of the metadata occurs when the data is read and
updated, and is considered invalid and uncached until then.
I needed to remove the vs-4040 check for performing a duplicate operation on a
particular bit. The reason is that while the other sites for working with
bitmaps are allowed to schedule, is_reusable() is called from do_balance(),
which will panic if a schedule occurs in certain places.
The benefit of on-demand bitmaps clearly outweighs a sanity check that depends
on a compile-time option that is discouraged.

This patch moves the bitmap loading code from super.c to bitmap.c
The code is also restructured somewhat. The only difference between new
format bitmaps and old format bitmaps is where they are. That's a two liner
before loading the block to use the correct one. There's no need for an
entirely separate code path.
The load path is generally the same, with the pattern being to throw out a
bunch of requests and then wait for them, then cache the metadata from the
contents.
Again, like the previous patches, the purpose is to set up for later ones.
Update: There was a bug in the previously posted version of this that resulted
in corruption. The problem was that bitmap 0 on new format file systems must
be treated specially, and wasn't. A stupid bug with an easy fix.
This is hopefully the last fix for the disaster that is the reiserfs bitmap
patch set.
If a bitmap block was full, first_zero_hint would end up at zero since it
would never be changed from it's zeroed out value. This just sets it
beyond the end of the bitmap block. If any bits are freed, it will be
reset to a valid bit. When info->free_count = 0, then we already know it's
full.

Similar to the SB_JOURNAL cleanup that was accepted a while ago, this patch
uses a temporary variable for buffer head references from the bitmap info
array.
This makes the code much more readable in some areas.
It also uses proper reference counting, doing a get_bh() after using the
pointer from the array and brelse()'ing it later. This may seem silly, but a
later patch will replace the simple temporary variables with an actual read,
so the reference freeing will be used then.

There is a check in is_reusable to determine if a particular block is a bitmap
block. It verifies this by going through the array of bitmap block buffer
heads and comparing the block number to each one.
Bitmap blocks are at defined locations on the disk in both old and current
formats. Simply checking against the known good values is enough.
This is a trivial optimization for a non-production codepath, but this is the
first in a series of patches that will ultimately remove the buffer heads from
that array.

ReiserFS does periodic cleanup of old transactions in order to limit the
length of time a journal replay may take after a crash. Sometimes, writing
metadata from an old (already committed) transaction may require committing
a newer transaction, which also requires writing all data=ordered buffers.
This can cause very long stalls on journal_begin.
This patch makes sure new transactions will not need to be committed before
trying a periodic reclaim of an old transaction. It is low risk because if
a bad decision is made, it just means a slightly longer journal replay

On systems with block devices containing a slash (virtual dasd, cciss,

being interpreted as a subdirectory. The generic block device code changes

When write() extends a file(i_size is increased) and fsync() is called,
change of inode must be written to journaling area through fsync().
But,currently the i_trans_id is not correctly updated when i_size is
increased. So fsync() does not kick the journal writer.
Reiserfs_file_write() already updates the transaction when blocks are
allocated, but the case when i_size increases and new blocks are not added
is not correctly treated.

The quota code plays interesting games with the lock ordering; to quote Jan:
| i_mutex of inode containing quota file is acquired after all other
| quota locks. i_mutex of all other inodes is acquired before quota
| locks. Quota code makes sure (by resetting inode operations and
| setting special flag on inode) that noone tries to enter quota code
| while holding i_mutex on a quota file...
The good news is that all of this special case i_mutex grabbing happens in the
(per filesystem) low level quota write function. For this special case we
need a new I_MUTEX_* nesting level, since this just entirely outside any of
the regular VFS locking rules for i_mutex. I trust Jan on his blue eyes that
this is not ever going to deadlock; and based on that the patch below is what
it takes to inform lockdep of these very interesting new locking rules.
The new locking rule for the I_MUTEX_QUOTA nesting level is that this is the
deepest possible level of nesting for i_mutex, and that this only should be
used in quota write (and possibly read) function of filesystems. This makes
the lock ordering of the I_MUTEX_* levels:
I_MUTEX_PARENT -> I_MUTEX_CHILD -> I_MUTEX_NORMAL -> I_MUTEX_QUOTA
Has no effect on non-lockdep kernels.

This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of

require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits
the root in the vfsmount to be used instead.

Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
superblock pointer.
This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In
such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
and mnt_sb would be set directly.
The patch also makes the following changes:
(*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
very little.
(*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
(*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
dentries being left unculled.
However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
with child trees.
[*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
(*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

This adds support for the sys_splice system call. Using a pipe as a

From the splice.c comments:
"splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands.
This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as
an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel
buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other.
The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation
that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer.

Mark file system inode and similar slab caches subject to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD
memory spreading.
If a slab cache is marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, then anytime that a task that's
in a cpuset with the 'memory_spread_slab' option enabled goes to allocate
from such a slab cache, the allocations are spread evenly over all the
memory nodes (task->mems_allowed) allowed to that task, instead of favoring
allocation on the node local to the current cpu.

The choice of which slab caches to so mark was quite simple. I marked
those already marked SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT, except for fs/xfs, dentry_cache,
inode_cache, and buffer_head, which were marked in a previous patch. Even
though SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT is for a different purpose, it marks the same
potentially large file system i/o related slab caches as we need for memory
spreading.
Given that the rule now becomes "wherever you would have used a
SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT slab cache flag before (usually the inode cache), use
the SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag too", this should be easy enough to maintain.
Future file system writers will just copy one of the existing file system
slab cache setups and tend to get it right without thinking.

After a transaction has closed but before it has finished commit, there is
a window where data=ordered mode requires invalidatepage to pin pages
instead of freeing them. This patch fixes a race between the
invalidatepage checks and data=ordered writeback, and it also adds a check
to the reiserfs write_ordered_buffers routines to write any anonymous
buffers that were dirtied after its first writeback loop.
That bug works like this:
proc1: transaction closes and a new one starts
proc1: write_ordered_buffers starts processing data=ordered list
proc1: buffer A is cleaned and written
proc2: buffer A is dirtied by another process
proc2: File is truncated to zero, page A goes through invalidatepage
proc2: reiserfs_invalidatepage sees dirty buffer A with reiserfs
journal head, pins it
proc1: write_ordered_buffers frees the journal head on buffer A
At this point, buffer A stays dirty forever
