Vyacheslav Dubeyko dd70edbde2 nilfs2: integrate sysfs support into driver
This patch integrates creation of sysfs groups and
attributes into NILFS file system driver.

It was found the issue with nilfs_sysfs_{create/delete}_snapshot_group
functions by Michael L Semon <mlsemon35@gmail.com> in the first
version of the patch:

The reason of the issue was placement of
nilfs_sysfs_{create/delete}_snapshot_group() call under
nilfs->ns_cptree_lock protection.  But this protection is unnecessary and
wrong solution.  The second version of the patch fixes this issue.

Vyacheslav Dubeyko caa05d49df nilfs2: add /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/superblock group
This patch adds creation of /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/superblock
group.

The superblock group contains attributes that describe
superblock's details:
(1) sb_write_time - show previous write time of super block in
human-readable format.
(2) sb_write_time_secs - show previous write time of super block
in seconds.
(3) sb_write_count - show write count of super block.
(4) sb_update_frequency - show/set interval of periodical update
of superblock (in seconds). You can set preferable frequency of
superblock update by command:

echo <value> > /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/superblock/sb_update_frequency

Ryusuke Konishi 0ec060d188 nilfs2: verify metadata sizes read from disk
Add code to check sizes of on-disk data of metadata files such as inode
size, segment usage size, DAT entry size, and checkpoint size.  Although
these sizes are read from disk, the current implementation doesn't check
them.

If these sizes are not sane on disk, it can cause out-of-range access to
metadata or memory access overrun on metadata block buffers due to
overflow in sundry calculations.

Both lower limit and upper limit of metadata sizes are verified to
prevent these issues.

Vyacheslav Dubeyko e5f7f84843 ] nilfs2: use atomic64_t type for inodes_count and blocks_count fields in nilfs_root struct
The cp_inodes_count and cp_blocks_count are represented as __le64 type in
on-disk structure (struct nilfs_checkpoint).  But analogous fields in
in-core structure (struct nilfs_root) are represented by atomic_t type.

This patch replaces atomic_t on atomic64_t type in representation of
inodes_count and blocks_count fields in struct nilfs_root.

Ryusuke Konishi 572d8b3945 nilfs2: fix deadlock issue between chcp and thaw ioctls
An fs-thaw ioctl causes deadlock with a chcp or mkcp -s command:

where the thaw ioctl deadlocked at thaw_super() when called while chcp was
waiting at nilfs_transaction_begin() called from
nilfs_ioctl_change_cpmode().  This deadlock is 100% reproducible.

This is because nilfs_ioctl_change_cpmode() first locks sb->s_umount in
read mode and then waits for unfreezing in nilfs_transaction_begin(),
whereas thaw_super() locks sb->s_umount in write mode.  The locking of
sb->s_umount here was intended to make snapshot mounts and the downgrade
of snapshots to checkpoints exclusive.

This fixes the deadlock issue by replacing the sb->s_umount usage in
nilfs_ioctl_change_cpmode() with a dedicated mutex which protects snapshot
mounts.

Ryusuke Konishi d7178c79d9 nilfs2: fix NULL pointer dereference in nilfs_load_super_block()
According to the report from Slicky Devil, nilfs caused kernel oops at
nilfs_load_super_block function during mount after he shrank the

This turned out due to a defect in an error path which runs if the
calculated location of the secondary super block was invalid.

This patch fixes it and eliminates the reported oops.

Ryusuke Konishi 4138ec2382 nilfs2: append blocksize info to warnings during loading super blocks
At present, the same warning message can be output twice when nilfs
detected a problem on super blocks:

 NILFS warning: broken superblock. using spare superblock.
 NILFS warning: broken superblock. using spare superblock.
 ...

This is because these super blocks are reloaded with the block size
written in a super block if it differs from the first block size, but
this repetition looks somewhat confusing.  So, we hint at what is
going on by appending block size information to those messages.

After applied the patch that unified sb instances, root dentry of

The orphan root dentry/inode keeps a root object, and this causes

Ryusuke Konishi f11459ad7d nilfs2: do not allocate multiple super block instances for a device
This stops allocating multiple super block instances for a device.

All snapshots and a current mode mount (i.e. latest tree) will be
controlled with nilfs_root objects that are kept within an sb
instance.

nilfs_get_sb() is rewritten so that it always has a root object for
the latest tree and snapshots make additional root objects.

The root dentry of the latest tree is binded to sb->s_root even if it
isn't attached on a directory.  Root dentries of snapshots or the
latest tree are binded to mnt->mnt_root on which they are mounted.

With this patch, nilfs_find_sbinfo() function, nilfs->ns_supers list,
and nilfs->ns_current back pointer, are deleted.  In addition,
init_nilfs() and load_nilfs() are simplified since they will be called
once for a device, not repeatedly called for mount points.

Ryusuke Konishi ba65ae4729 nilfs2: add checkpoint tree to nilfs object
To hold multiple versions of a filesystem in one sb instance, a new
on-memory structure is necessary to handle one or more checkpoints.

This adds a red-black tree of checkpoints to nilfs object, and adds
lookup and create functions for them.

Each checkpoint is represented by "nilfs_root" structure, and this
structure has rb_node to configure the rb-tree.

The nilfs_root object is identified with a checkpoint number.  For
each snapshot, a nilfs_root object is allocated and the checkpoint
number of snapshot is assigned to it.  For a regular mount
(i.e. current mode mount), NILFS_CPTREE_CURRENT_CNO constant is
assigned to the corresponding nilfs_root object.

Each nilfs_root object has an ifile inode and some counters.  These
items will displace those of nilfs_sb_info structure in successive
patches.

Christoph Hellwig dd3932eddf block: remove BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT
All the blkdev_issue_* helpers can only sanely be used for synchronous
caller.  To issue cache flushes or barriers asynchronously the caller needs
to set up a bio by itself with a completion callback to move the asynchronous
state machine ahead.  So drop the BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT flag that is always
specified when calling blkdev_issue_* and also remove the now unused flags
argument to blkdev_issue_flush and blkdev_issue_zeroout.  For
blkdev_issue_discard we need to keep it for the secure discard flag, which
gains a more descriptive name and loses the bitops vs flag confusion.

Ryusuke Konishi ea1a16f716 nilfs2: fix false warning saying one of two super blocks is broken
After applying commit b2ac86e1, the following message got appeared
after unclean shutdown:

> NILFS warning: broken superblock. using spare superblock.

This turns out to be a false message due to the change which updates
two super blocks alternately.  The secondary super block now can be
selected if it's newer than the primary one.

This kills the false warning by suppressing it if another super block
is not actually broken.

Ryusuke Konishi 89c0fd014d nilfs2: reject filesystem with unsupported block size
This inserts sanity check that refuses to mount a filesystem with
unsupported block size.

Previously, kernel code of nilfs was looking only limitation of
devices though mkfs.nilfs2 limits the range of block sizes; there was
no check that prevents rec_len overflow with larger block sizes.

With this change, block sizes larger than 64KB or smaller than 1KB
will get rejected explicitly by kernel.

Ryusuke Konishi 325020477a nilfs2: do not update log cursor for small change
Super blocks of nilfs are periodically overwritten in order to record
the recent log position.  This shortens recovery time after unclean
unmount, but the current implementation performs the update even for a
few blocks of change.  If the filesystem gets small changes slowly and
continually, super blocks may be updated excessively.

This moderates the issue by skipping update of log cursor if it does
not cross a segment boundary.

Ryusuke Konishi 6c12516083 nilfs2: implement fallback for super root search
Although nilfs redundantly uses two super blocks and each may point to
different position on log, the current version of nilfs does not try
fallback to the spare super block when it doesn't find any valid log
at the position that the primary super block points to.

This has been a cause of mount failures due to write order reversals
on barrier less block devices.

This inserts fallback code in error path of nilfs_search_super_root
routine to resolve the mount failure problem.

Jiro SEKIBA b2ac86e1a8 nilfs2: sync super blocks in turns
This will sync super blocks in turns instead of syncing duplicate
super blocks at the time.  This will help searching valid super root
when super block is written into disk before log is written, which is
happen when barrier-less block devices are unmounted uncleanly.  In
the situation, old super block likely points to valid log.

This patch introduces ns_sbwcount member to the nilfs object and adds
nilfs_sb_will_flip() function; ns_sbwcount counts how many times super
blocks write back to the disk.  And, nilfs_sb_will_flip() decides
whether flipping required or not based on the count of ns_sbwcount to
sync super blocks asymmetrically.

The following functions are also changed:

 - nilfs_prepare_super(): flips super blocks according to the
   argument.  The argument is calculated by nilfs_sb_will_flip()
   function.

 - nilfs_cleanup_super(): sets "clean" flag to both super blocks if
   they point to the same checkpoint.

To update both of super block information, caller of
nilfs_commit_super must set the information on both super blocks.

Ryusuke Konishi 25294d8c37 nilfs2: use checkpoint number instead of timestamp to select super block
Nilfs maintains two super blocks, and selects the new one on mount
time if they both have valid checksums and their timestamps differ.

However, this has potential for mis-selection since the system clock
may be rewinded and the resolution of the timestamps is not high.

Usually this doesn't become an issue because both super blocks are
updated at the same time when the file system is unmounted.  Even if
the file system wasn't unmounted cleanly, the roll-forward recovery
will find the proper log which stores the latest super root.  Thus,
the issue can appear only if update of one super block fails and the
clock happens to be rewinded.

This fixes the issue by using checkpoint numbers instead of timestamps
to pick the super block storing the location of the latest log.
