David Woodhouse 422b120238 [JFFS2] Fix jffs2_reserve_space() when all blocks are pending erasure.
When _all_ the blocks were on the erase_pending_list, we could't find a
block to GC from but there was no _actually_ free space, and
jffs2_reserve_space() would get a little unhappy.

Handle this case by returning -EAGAIN from jffs2_garbage_collect_pass().
There are two callers of that function -- jffs2_flush_wbuf_gc(), which
will interpret it as an error and flush the writebuffer by other means,
and jffs2_reserve_space(), which we modify to respond to -EAGAIN with an
immediate call to jffs2_erase_pending_blocks() and another run round the
loop.

David Woodhouse 85a62db624 [JFFS2] Add paranoia debugging for superblock counts
The problem fixed in commit 014b164e13
(space leak with in-band cleanmarkers) would have been caught a lot
quicker if our paranoid debugging mode had included adding up the size
counts from all the eraseblocks and comparing the totals with the counts
in the superblock. Add that.

Make jffs2_mark_erased_block() file the newly-erased block on the
free_list before calling the debug function, to make it happy.

David Woodhouse 014b164e13 [JFFS2] Fix free space leak with in-band cleanmarkers
We were accounting for the cleanmarker by calling jffs2_link_node_ref()
(without locking!), which adjusted both superblock and per-eraseblock
accounting, subtracting the size of the cleanmarker from {jeb,c}->free_size
and adding it to {jeb,c}->used_size.

But only _then_ were we adding the size of the newly-erased block back
to the superblock counts, and we were adding each of jeb->{free,used}_size
to the corresponding superblock counts. Thus, the size of the cleanmarker
was effectively subtracted from the superblock's free_size _twice_.

Fix this, by always adding a full eraseblock size to c->free_size when
we've erased a block. And call jffs2_link_node_ref() under the proper
lock, while we're at it.

Thanks to Alexander Yurchenko and/or Damir Shayhutdinov for (almost)
pinpointing the problem.

Alexey Korolev abe2f41430 JFFS2 Fix of panics caused by wrong condition for hole frag creation in write_begin
This fixes a regression introduced in commit
205c109a7a when switching to
write_begin/write_end operations in JFFS2.

The page offset is miscalculated, leading to corruption of the fragment
lists and subsequently to memory corruption and panics.

[ Side note: the bug is a fairly direct result of the naming.  Nick was
  likely misled by the use of "offs", since we tend to use the notion of
  "offset" not as an absolute position, but as an offset _within_ a page
  or allocation.

  Alternatively, a "pgoff_t" is a page index, but not a byte offset -
  our VM naming can be a bit confusing.

  So in this case, a VM person would likely have called this a "pos",
  not an "offs", or perhaps talked about byte offsets rather than page
  offsets (since it's counted in bytes, not pages).    - Linus ]

David Howells 5451f79f5f iget: stop JFFS2 from using iget() and read_inode()
Stop the JFFS2 filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
jffs2_read_inode() with jffs2_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
jffs2_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.

jffs2_do_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.

David Woodhouse 15953580e7 [JFFS2] Improve getdents vs. f_pos handling on NOR flash.
Commit a491486a20 started obliterating
dirents directly on the medium, when jffs2_can_mark_obsolete(). Removing
them immediately from the f->dents list, however, screws up handling of
f_pos within a directory -- because the offset is equivalent to the
number of entries through the list we are, and the existence of
deletion dirents served to provide 'placeholders' for unlinked
entries. Now, 'rm -r' doesn't even manage to unlink everything in the
directory.

Revert to keeping 'deletion' dirents in the list, at least in memory
even though we no longer write anything to the medium.

KaiGai Kohei cfc8dc6f6f [JFFS2] Tidy up fix for ACL/permissions problem.
[In commit 9ed437c50d we fixed a problem 
with standard permissions on newly-created inodes, when POSIX ACLs are 
enabled. This cleans it up...]

The attached patch separate jffs2_init_acl() into two parts.

The one is jffs2_init_acl_pre() called from jffs2_new_inode().
It compute ACL oriented inode->i_mode bits, and allocate in-memory ACL
objects associated with the new inode just before when inode meta
infomation is written to the medium.

The other is jffs2_init_acl_post() called from jffs2_symlink(),
jffs2_mkdir(), jffs2_mknod() and jffs2_do_create().
It actually writes in-memory ACL objects into the medium next to
the success of writing meta-information.

In the current implementation, we have to write a same inode meta
infomation twice when inode->i_mode is updated by the default ACL.
However, we can avoid the behavior by putting an updated i_mode
before it is written at first, as jffs2_init_acl_pre() doing.

    mm: make read_cache_page synchronous

    Ensure pages are uptodate after returning from read_cache_page, which allows
    us to cut out most of the filesystem-internal PageUptodate calls.

    I didn't have a great look down the call chains, but this appears to fixes 7
    possible use-before uptodate in hfs, 2 in hfsplus, 1 in jfs, a few in
    ecryptfs, 1 in jffs2, and a possible cleared data overwritten with readpage in
    block2mtd.  All depending on whether the filler is async and/or can return
    with a !uptodate page.

It introduced a wait to read_cache_page, as well as a
read_cache_page_async function equivalent to the old read_cache_page
without any callers.

Switching jffs2_gc_fetch_page to read_cache_page_async for the old
behavior makes the deadlocks go away, but maybe reintroduces the
use-before-uptodate problem? I don't understand the mm/fs interaction
well enough to say.

[It's fine. dwmw2.]

Satyam Sharma 3bd858ab1c Introduce is_owner_or_cap() to wrap CAP_FOWNER use with fsuid check
Introduce is_owner_or_cap() macro in fs.h, and convert over relevant
users to it. This is done because we want to avoid bugs in the future
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.

Rafael J. Wysocki 8314418629 Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.

It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.

The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

Joakim Tjernlund d364fb18cd [JFFS2] Reduce time for which erase_free_sem is held during erase.
With current desing erase_free_sem is locked every time the flash
block is being erased. For NOR flashes - ~1 second is needed to erase
single flash block. In the worst case scenario erase_free_sem may be
locked for a couple of seconds when the number of blocks is being
erased (e.g. after large file was removed). When erase_free_sem is
locked all read/write operations for given JFFS2 partition are locked
too - in effect from time to time access to the JFFS2 partition is
locked for a number of seconds. This fix makes critical section in
flash erasing procedure shorter - now erase_free_sem is locked around
erase_completion_lock spinlock only.

David Woodhouse 8ae5d31263 [JFFS2] Fix BUG() caused by failing to discard xattrs on deleted files.
When we cannot mark nodes as obsolete, such as on NAND flash, we end up 
having to delete inodes with !nlink in jffs2_build_remove_unlinked_inode().
However, jffs2_build_xattr_subsystem() runs later than this, and will
attach an xref to the dead inode. Then later when the last nodes of that
dead inode are erased we hit a BUG() in jffs2_del_ino_cache() 
because we're not supposed to get there with an xattr still attached to 
the inode which is being killed.

The simple fix is to refrain from attaching xattrs to inodes with zero 
nlink, in jffs2_build_xattr_subsystem(). It's it's OK to trust nlink 
here because the file system isn't actually mounted yet, so there's no 
chance that a zero-nlink file could actually be alive still because 
it's open.

Christoph Lameter 50953fe9e0 slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flag
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.

rb_replace_node to let them replace an earlier node which they
completely overlapped. However, that could place the new node into the
wrong place in the tree, since its start could be node only before the
start of the victim, but before the node _before_ the victim in the tree
(if that previous node actually ends _after_ the new node, thus isn't
entirely overlapped and wasn't itself chosen to be the victim).

David Woodhouse 96dd8d25d1 [JFFS2] Remove broken insert_point optimisation in jffs2_add_tn_to_tree()
The original code would remember, during the first pass over the tree,
a suitable place to start the insertion from when we eventually come
to add a new node.

The optimisation was broken, and we sometimes ended up inserting a new
node in the wrong place because we started the insertion from the wrong
point.

Just ditch the optimisation and start the insertion from the root of the
tree, for now. I'll try it again when I'm feeling cleverer.

David Woodhouse 1123e2a859 [JFFS2] Remember to calculate overlap on nodes which replace older nodes
This fixes a problem Artem found with the integck test tool -- we

David Woodhouse df8e96f391 [JFFS2] Improve read_inode memory usage, v2.
We originally used to read every node and allocate a jffs2_tmp_dnode_info
structure for each, before processing them in (reverse) version order
and discarding the ones which are obsoleted by later nodes.

With huge logfiles, this behaviour caused memory problems. For example, a
file involved in OLPC trac #1292 has 1822391 nodes, and would cause the XO
machine to run out of memory during the first stage of read_inode().

Instead of just inserting nodes into a tree in version order as we find
them, we now put them into a tree in order of their offset within the
file, which allows us to immediately discard nodes which are completely
obsoleted.

We don't use a full tree with 'fragments' pointing to the real data
structure, as we do in the normal fragtree. We sort only on the start
address, and add an 'overlapped' flag to the tmp_dnode_info to indicate
that the node in question is (partially) overlapped by another.

When the scan is complete, we start at the end of the file, adding each
node to a real fragtree as before. Where the node is non-overlapped, we
just add it (it doesn't matter that it's not the latest version; there is
no overlap). When the node at the end of the tree _is_ overlapped, we sort
it and all its overlapping nodes into version order and then add them to
the fragtree in that order.

This 'early discard' reduces the peak allocation of tmp_dnode_info
structures from 1.8M to a mere 62872 (3.5%) in the degenerate case
referenced above.

This version of the patch also correctly rememembers the highest node
version# seen for an inode when it's scanned.

Artem Bityutskiy 10731f8300 [JFFS2] fix buffer sise calculations in jffs2_get_inode_nodes()
In read inode we have an optimization which prevents one
min. I/O unit (e.g. NAND page) to be read more then once.

Namely, at the beginning we do not know which node type we read,
so we read so we assume we read the directory entry, because it
has the smallest node header. When we read it, we read up to the
next min. I/O unit, just because if later we'll need to read more,
we already have this data.

If it turns out to be that the node is not directory entry, and
we need more data, and we did not read it because it sits in the
next min. I/O unit, we read the whole next (or several next)
min. I/O unit(s). And if it happens to be that we read a data node,
and we've read part of its data, we calculate partial CRC.
So if later we need to check data CRC, we'll only read the rest
of the data from further min. I/O units and continue CRC checking.

This code was a bit messy and buggy. The bug was that it assumed
relatively large min. I/O unit, so that the largest node header
could overlap only one min. I/O unit boundary.

This parch clean-ups the code a bit and fixes this bug.
The patch was not tested on flash with small min. I/O unit, like
NOR-ECC, nut it was tested on NAND with 512 bytes NAND page, so
it at least does not break NAND. It was also tested with mtdram
so it should not break NOR.

(or BUG if the summary was found to be empty).

it may be disabled for the current erase block when this

The garbage collection thread is strictly an optimisation. Everything it

Sometimes, however, it's a pessimisation. Especially during early boot
when it's checksumming nodes and scanning inodes which are shortly going
to be pulled in by read_inode anyway. We end up building the rbtree of
node coverage twice for the same inode.

By switching to yield() instead of cond_resched() in the main loop, we

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

Artem Bityutskiy a7a6ace140 [JFFS2] Use MTD_OOB_AUTO to automatically place cleanmarker on NAND
Nowadays MTD supports an MTD_OOB_AUTO option which allows users
to access free bytes in NAND's OOB as a contiguous buffer, although
it may be highly discontinuous.

This patch teaches JFFS2 to use this nice feature instead of the

OneNAND. Now JFFS2 does not care how are the free bytes situated.

This may change position of the clean marker on some flashes,
but this is not a problem. JFFS2 will just re-erase the empty
eraseblocks and write the new (correct) clean marker.

Vitaly Wool 7014568bad [MTD] [NAND] remove len/ooblen confusion.
As was discussed between Ricard Wanderlöf, David Woodhouse, Artem 
Bityutskiy and me, the current API for reading/writing OOB is confusing. 

The thing that introduces confusion is the need to specify ops.len 
together with ops.ooblen for reads/writes that concern only OOB not data 
area. So, ops.len is overloaded: when ops.datbuf != NULL it serves to 
specify the length of the data read, and when ops.datbuf == NULL, it 
serves to specify the full OOB read length.

The patch inlined below is the slightly updated version of the previous 
patch serving the same purpose, but with the new Artem's comments taken 
into account.

Artem, BTW, thanks a lot for your valuable input!

Jeff Garzik a6b1d82d07 [JFFS2] kill warning RE debug-only variables
gcc emits the following warning on a 'allmodconfig' build:

fs/jffs2/xattr.c: In function ‘unrefer_xattr_datum’:
fs/jffs2/xattr.c:402: warning: unused variable ‘version’
fs/jffs2/xattr.c:402: warning: unused variable ‘xid’

Given that these variables are only used in the debug printk, and they
merely remove a deref, we can easily kill the warning by adding the
derefs to the debug printk.

Dave Hansen 9a53c3a783 [PATCH] r/o bind mounts: unlink: monitor i_nlink
When a filesystem decrements i_nlink to zero, it means that a write must be
performed in order to drop the inode from the filesystem.

We're shortly going to have keep filesystems from being remounted r/o between
the time that this i_nlink decrement and that write occurs.

So, add a little helper function to do the decrements.  We'll tie into it in a
bit to note when i_nlink hits zero.

Badari Pulavarty 543ade1fc9 [PATCH] Streamline generic_file_* interfaces and filemap cleanups
This patch cleans up generic_file_*_read/write() interfaces.  Christoph
Hellwig gave me the idea for this clean ups.

In a nutshell, all filesystems should set .aio_read/.aio_write methods and use
do_sync_read/ do_sync_write() as their .read/.write methods.  This allows us
to cleanup all variants of generic_file_* routines.

Final available interfaces:

generic_file_aio_read() - read handler
generic_file_aio_write() - write handler
generic_file_aio_write_nolock() - no lock write handler

__generic_file_aio_write_nolock() - internal worker routine

Theodore Ts'o ba52de123d [PATCH] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structure
This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode.  Filesystems that want
to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr
routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function.

Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect)
values for i_blksize.
