<title>jbd2: fix regression where we fail to initialize checksum seed when loading</title>

<id>32f3869184d498850d36b7e6aa3b9f5260ea648a</id>
<content type='text'>
When we're enabling journal features, we cannot use the predicate
jbd2_journal_has_csum_v2or3() because we haven't yet set the sb
feature flag fields!  Moreover, we just finished loading the shash
driver, so the test is unnecessary; calculate the seed always.

Without this patch, we fail to initialize the checksum seed the first
time we turn on journal_checksum, which means that all journal blocks
written during that first mount are corrupt.  Transactions written
after the second mount will be fine, since the feature flag will be
set in the journal superblock.  xfstests generic/{034,321,322} are the
regression tests.

(This is important for 3.18.)

Clear all three journal checksum feature flags before turning on
whichever journal checksum options we want.  Rearrange the error
checking so that newer flags get complained about first.

unmounted, allocate the buffer cache from the non-moveable area to
allow page migration and CMA allocations to more easily succeed.

<title>jbd2: fix descriptor block size handling errors with journal_csum</title>

<id>db9ee220361de03ee86388f9ea5e529eaad5323c</id>
<content type='text'>
It turns out that there are some serious problems with the on-disk
format of journal checksum v2.  The foremost is that the function to
calculate descriptor tag size returns sizes that are too big.  This
causes alignment issues on some architectures and is compounded by the
fact that some parts of jbd2 use the structure size (incorrectly) to
determine the presence of a 64bit journal instead of checking the
feature flags.

Therefore, introduce journal checksum v3, which enlarges the
descriptor block tag format to allow for full 32-bit checksums of
journal blocks, fix the journal tag function to return the correct
sizes, and fix the jbd2 recovery code to use feature flags to
determine 64bitness.

Add a few function helpers so we don't have to open-code quite so
many pieces.

Switching to a 16-byte block size was found to increase journal size
overhead by a maximum of 0.1%, to convert a 32-bit journal with no
checksumming to a 32-bit journal with checksum v3 enabled.

The j_state_lock is one of the hottest locks in the jbd2 layer and
thus one of its scalability bottlenecks.

We don't need to be holding the j_state_lock while we are calling
wake_up(&amp;journal-&gt;j_wait_commit), so release the lock a little bit
earlier.

been complaining). So make some messages just KERN_ERR and remove the
