Remove the verbose license text from XFS files and replace them
with SPDX tags. This does not change the license of any of the code,
merely refers to the common, up-to-date license files in LICENSES/

This change was mostly scripted. fs/xfs/Makefile and
fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_fs.h were modified by hand, the rest were detected
and modified by the following command:

for f in `git grep -l "GNU General" fs/xfs/` ; do
	echo $f
	cat $f | awk -f hdr.awk &gt; $f.new
	mv -f $f.new $f
done

And the hdr.awk script that did the modification (including
detecting the difference between GPL-2.0 and GPL-2.0+ licenses)
is as follows:

$ cat hdr.awk
BEGIN {
	hdr = 1.0
	tag = "GPL-2.0"
	str = ""
}

/^ \* This program is free software/ {
	hdr = 2.0;
	next
}

/any later version./ {
	tag = "GPL-2.0+"
	next
}

/^ \*\// {
	if (hdr &gt; 0.0) {
		print "// SPDX-License-Identifier: " tag
		print str
		print $0
		str=""
		hdr = 0.0
		next
	}
	print $0
	next
}

/^ \* / {
	if (hdr &gt; 1.0)
		next
	if (hdr &gt; 0.0) {
		if (str != "")
			str = str "\n"
		str = str $0
		next
	}
	print $0
	next
}

/^ \*/ {
	if (hdr &gt; 0.0)
		next
	print $0
	next
}

// {
	if (hdr &gt; 0.0) {
		if (str != "")
			str = str "\n"
		str = str $0
		next
	}
	print $0
}

END { }

<title>xfs: add mount delay debug option</title>

Similar to log_recovery_delay, this delay occurs between the VFS
superblock being initialised and the xfs_mount being fully
initialised. It also poisons the per-ag radix tree node so that it
can be used for triggering shrinker races during mount
such as the following:

&lt;run memory pressure workload in background&gt;

$ cat dirty-mount.sh
#! /bin/bash

umount -f /dev/pmem0
mkfs.xfs -f /dev/pmem0
mount /dev/pmem0 /mnt/test
rm -f /mnt/test/foo
xfs_io -fxc "pwrite 0 4k" -c fsync -c "shutdown" /mnt/test/foo
umount /dev/pmem0

# let's crash it now!
echo 30 &gt; /sys/fs/xfs/debug/mount_delay
mount /dev/pmem0 /mnt/test
echo 0 &gt; /sys/fs/xfs/debug/mount_delay

In DEBUG mode, assert failures unconditionally trigger a kernel BUG.
This is useful in diagnostic situations to panic a system and
collect detailed state information at the time of a failure.

This can also cause problems in cases where DEBUG mode code is
desired but it is preferable not trigger kernel BUGs on assert
failure. For example, during development of new code or during
certain xfstests tests that intentionally cause corruption and test
the kernel for survival (but otherwise may expect to trigger assert
failures).

To provide additional flexibility, create the
&lt;sysfs&gt;/fs/xfs/debug/bug_on_assert tunable to configure assert
failure behavior at runtime. This tunable is only available in DEBUG
mode and is enabled by default to preserve existing default
behavior. When disabled, assert failures in DEBUG mode result in
kernel warnings.

<title>xfs: resurrect debug mode drop buffered writes mechanism</title>
<updated>2017-02-17T01:19:15+00:00</updated>

<id>9dbddd7b0c649bd6aa9442c717932325ec590303</id>
<content type='text'>
A debug mode write failure mechanism was introduced to XFS in commit
801cc4e17a ("xfs: debug mode forced buffered write failure") to
facilitate targeted testing of delalloc indirect reservation management
from userspace. This code was subsequently rendered ineffective by the
move to iomap based buffered writes in commit 68a9f5e700 ("xfs:
implement iomap based buffered write path"). This likely went unnoticed
because the associated userspace code had not made it into xfstests.

Resurrect this mechanism to facilitate effective indlen reservation
testing from xfstests. The move to iomap based buffered writes relocated
the hook this mechanism needs to return write failure from XFS to
generic code. The failure trigger must remain in XFS. Given that
limitation, convert this from a write failure mechanism to one that
simply drops writes without returning failure to userspace. Rename all
"fail_writes" references to "drop_writes" to illustrate the point. This
is more hacky than preferred, but still triggers the XFS error handling
behavior required to drive the indlen tests. This is only available in
DEBUG mode and for testing purposes only.

A debug mode write failure mechanism was introduced to XFS in commit
801cc4e17a ("xfs: debug mode forced buffered write failure") to
facilitate targeted testing of delalloc indirect reservation management
from userspace. This code was subsequently rendered ineffective by the
move to iomap based buffered writes in commit 68a9f5e700 ("xfs:
implement iomap based buffered write path"). This likely went unnoticed
because the associated userspace code had not made it into xfstests.

Resurrect this mechanism to facilitate effective indlen reservation
testing from xfstests. The move to iomap based buffered writes relocated
the hook this mechanism needs to return write failure from XFS to
generic code. The failure trigger must remain in XFS. Given that
limitation, convert this from a write failure mechanism to one that
simply drops writes without returning failure to userspace. Rename all
"fail_writes" references to "drop_writes" to illustrate the point. This
is more hacky than preferred, but still triggers the XFS error handling
behavior required to drive the indlen tests. This is only available in
DEBUG mode and for testing purposes only.

<title>xfs: normalize "infinite" retries in error configs</title>

As it stands today, the "fail immediately" vs. "retry forever"
values for max_retries and retry_timeout_seconds in the xfs metadata
error configurations are not consistent.

A retry_timeout_seconds of 0 means "retry forever," but a
max_retries of 0 means "fail immediately."

retry_timeout_seconds &lt; 0 is disallowed, while max_retries == -1
means "retry forever."

Make this consistent across the error configs, such that a value of
0 means "fail immediately" (i.e. wait 0 seconds, or retry 0 times),
and a value of -1 always means "retry forever."

This makes retry_timeout a signed long to accommodate the -1, even
though it stores jiffies.  Given our limit of a 1 day maximum
timeout, this should be sufficient even at much higher HZ values
than we have available today.

<title>xfs: fix xfs_error_get_cfg for negative errnos</title>

xfs_error_get_cfg() is called with bp-&gt;b_error as an arg, which is
negative, so the switch statement won't ever find any matches.

This results in only the default error handler having any effect, as
EIO/ENOSPC/ENODEV get ignored due to the wrong sign.

It seems simplest to always flip the error sign to positive, so that
we can handle either negative errors in bp-&gt;b_error, or possibly a
positive errno via something like xfs_error_get_cfg(EIO) - this
future-proofs the function.
