2011-05-10nilfs2: use mark_buffer_dirty to mark btnode or meta data dirtyRyusuke Konishi
This replaces nilfs_mdt_mark_buffer_dirty and nilfs_btnode_mark_dirty macros with mark_buffer_dirty and gets rid of nilfs_mark_buffer_dirty, an own mark buffer dirty function. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2011-05-10nilfs2: always set back pointer to host inode in mapping->hostRyusuke Konishi
In the current nilfs, page cache for btree nodes and meta data files do not set a valid back pointer to the host inode in mapping->host. This will change it so that every address space in nilfs uses mapping->host to hold its host inode. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2011-05-10nilfs2: get rid of NILFS_I_NILFSRyusuke Konishi
This replaces all references of NILFS_I_NILFS(inode)->ns_bdev with inode->i_sb->s_bdev and unfolds remaining uses of NILFS_I_NILFS inline function. Before 2.6.37, referring to a nilfs object from inodes needed a conditional judgement, and NILFS_I_NILFS was helpful to simplify it. But now we can simply do it by going through a super block instance like inode->i_sb->s_fs_info. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

2011-05-10nilfs2: add truncation routine of segment usage fileRyusuke Konishi
When shrinking the filesystem, segments to be truncated must be test if they are busy or not, and unneeded sufile block should be deleted. This adds routines for the truncation. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2011-05-10nilfs2: add routine to move secondary super blockRyusuke Konishi
After resizing the filesystem, the secondary super block must be moved to a new location. This adds a helper function for this. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2011-05-10nilfs2: add ioctl which limits range of segment to be allocatedRyusuke Konishi
This adds a new ioctl command which limits range of segment to be allocated. This is intended to gather data whithin a range of the partition before shrinking the filesystem, or to control new log location for some purpose. If a range is specified by the ioctl, segment allocator of nilfs tries to allocate new segments from the range unless no free segments are available there.

2011-05-10nilfs2: zero fill unused portion of super root blockRyusuke Konishi

2011-05-10nilfs2: super root size should change depending on inode sizeRyusuke Konishi
The size of super root structure depends on inode size, so NILFS_SR_BYTES macro should be a function of the inode size. This fixes the issue. Even though a different size value will be written for a possible future filesystem with extended inode, but fortunately this does not break disk format compatibility.

2011-05-10nilfs2: get rid of private page allocatorRyusuke Konishi
Previously, nilfs was cloning pages for mmapped region to freeze their data and ensure consistency of checksum during writeback cycles. A private page allocator was used for this page cloning. But, we no longer need to do that since clear_page_dirty_for_io function sets up pte so that vm_ops->page_mkwrite function is called right before the mmapped pages are modified and nilfs_page_mkwrite function can safely wait for the pages to be written back to disk. So, this stops making a copy of mmapped pages during writeback, and eliminates the private page allocation and deallocation functions from nilfs.

2011-05-10nilfs2: fix infinite loop in nilfs_palloc_freev functionRyusuke Konishi
After having applied commit 9954e7af14868b8b ("nilfs2: add free entries count only if clear bit operation succeeded"), a free routine of nilfs came to fall into an infinite loop, outputting the same message endlessly: nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed ... That patch broke the routine so that a loop counter is never updated in an abnormal state. This fixes the regression. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2011-04-05fs: export empty_aopsJens Axboe
With the ->sync_page() hook gone, we have a few users that add their own static address_space_operations without any functions defined. fs/inode.c already has an empty_aops that it uses for init purposes.

It initializes mapping->a_ops with a NULL pointer for some pages in nilfs (e.g. btree node pages), but mm code doesn't NULL pointer checks against mapping->a_ops. (the check is done for each callback function) This corrects the aops initialization and fixes the oops.

2011-03-30nilfs2: fix data loss in mmap page write for hole blocksRyusuke Konishi
From the result of a function test of mmap, mmap write to shared pages turned out to be broken for hole blocks. It doesn't write out filled blocks and the data will be lost after umount. This is due to a bug that the target file is not queued for log writer when filling hole blocks. Also, nilfs_page_mkwrite function exits normal code path even after successfully filled hole blocks due to a change of block_page_mkwrite function; just after nilfs was merged into the mainline, block_page_mkwrite() started to return VM_FAULT_LOCKED instead of zero by the patch "mm: close page_mkwrite races" (commit: b827e496c893de0c). The current nilfs_page_mkwrite() is not handling this value properly. This corrects nilfs_page_mkwrite() and will resolve the data loss problem in mmap write.

2011-03-09nilfs2: get rid of nilfs_sb_info structureRyusuke Konishi
This directly uses sb->s_fs_info to keep a nilfs filesystem object and fully removes the intermediate nilfs_sb_info structure. With this change, the hierarchy of on-memory structures of nilfs will be simplified as follows: Before: super_block -> nilfs_sb_info -> the_nilfs -> cptree --+-> nilfs_root (current file system) +-> nilfs_root (snapshot A) +-> nilfs_root (snapshot B) : -> nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure) After: super_block -> the_nilfs -> cptree --+-> nilfs_root (current file system) +-> nilfs_root (snapshot A) +-> nilfs_root (snapshot B) : -> nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure) The reason why we didn't design so from the beginning is because the initial shape also differed from the above. The early hierachy was composed of "per-mount-point" super_block -> nilfs_sb_info pairs and a shared nilfs object. On the kernel 2.6.37, it was changed to the current shape in order to unify super block instances into one per device, and this cleanup became applicable as the result.

This is a similar change to those in ext2/ext3 codebase (commit 40a063f6691ce937 and a4ae3094869f18e2, respectively). The addition of 64k block capability in the rec_len_from_disk and rec_len_to_disk functions added a bit of math overhead which slows down file create workloads needlessly when the architecture cannot even support 64k blocks.

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

2011-03-08nilfs2: tighten restrictions on inode flagsRyusuke Konishi
Nilfs has few rectrictions on which flags may be set on which inodes like ext2/3/4 filesystems used to be. Specifically DIRSYNC may only be set on directories and IMMUTABLE and APPEND may not be set on links. Tighten that to disallow TOPDIR being set on non-directories and only NODUMP and NOATIME to be set on non-regular file, non-directories. This introduces a flags masking function like those of extN and uses it during inode creation. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2011-03-08nilfs2: mark S_NOATIME on inodes only if NOATIME attribute is setRyusuke Konishi
At present, nilfs marks S_NOATIME flag on all inodes. This restricts nilfs_set_inode_flags function so that it marks S_NOATIME only if a given inode has an FS_NOATIME_FL flag. Although nilfs does not support atime yet, touch_atime() still safely returns on IS_NOATIME check since MS_NOATIME is always set on sb. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

2011-03-02nilfs2: fix regression that i-flag is not set on changeless checkpointsRyusuke Konishi
According to the report from Jiro SEKIBA titled "regression in 2.6.37?" (Message-Id: <8739n8vs1f.wl%jir@sekiba.com>), on 2.6.37 and later kernels, lscp command no longer displays "i" flag on checkpoints that snapshot operations or garbage collection created. This is a regression of nilfs2 checkpointing function, and it's critical since it broke behavior of a part of nilfs2 applications. For instance, snapshot manager of TimeBrowse gets to create meaningless snapshots continuously; snapshot creation triggers another checkpoint, but applications cannot distinguish whether the new checkpoint contains meaningful changes or not without the i-flag. This patch fixes the regression and brings that application behavior back to normal.

2011-02-23mm: prevent concurrent unmap_mapping_range() on the same inodeMiklos Szeredi
Michael Leun reported that running parallel opens on a fuse filesystem can trigger a "kernel BUG at mm/truncate.c:475" Gurudas Pai reported the same bug on NFS. The reason is, unmap_mapping_range() is not prepared for more than one concurrent invocation per inode. For example: thread1: going through a big range, stops in the middle of a vma and stores the restart address in vm_truncate_count. thread2: comes in with a small (e.g. single page) unmap request on the same vma, somewhere before restart_address, finds that the vma was already unmapped up to the restart address and happily returns without doing anything. Another scenario would be two big unmap requests, both having to restart the unmapping and each one setting vm_truncate_count to its own value. This could go on forever without any of them being able to finish. Truncate and hole punching already serialize with i_mutex. Other callers of unmap_mapping_range() do not, and it's difficult to get i_mutex protection for all callers. In particular ->d_revalidate(), which calls invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in fuse, may be called with or without i_mutex. This patch adds a new mutex to 'struct address_space' to prevent running multiple concurrent unmap_mapping_range() on the same mapping.

2011-01-10nilfs2: unfold nilfs_dat_inode functionRyusuke Konishi
nilfs_dat_inode function was a wrapper to switch between normal dat inode and gcdat, a clone of the dat inode for garbage collection. This function got obsolete when the gcdat inode was removed, and now we can access the dat inode directly from a nilfs object. So, we will unfold the wrapper and remove it.
