The R/O state may have various reasons:
1. The UBI volume is R/O
2. The FS is mounted R/O
3. The FS switched to R/O mode because of an error
However, in UBIFS we have only one variable which represents cases
1 and 3 - 'c->ro_media'. Indeed, we set this to 1 if we switch to
R/O mode due to an error, and then we test it in many places to
make sure that we stop writing as soon as the error happens.
But this is very unclean. One consequence of this, for example, is
that in 'ubifs_remount_fs()' we use 'c->ro_media' to check whether
we are in R/O mode because on an error, and we print a message
in this case. However, if we are in R/O mode because the media
is R/O, our message is bogus.
This patch introduces new flag - 'c->ro_error' which is set when
we switch to R/O mode because of an error. It also changes all
"if (c->ro_media)" checks to "if (c->ro_error)" checks, because
this is what the checks actually mean. We do not need to check
for 'c->ro_media' because if the UBI volume is in R/O mode, we
do not allow R/W mounting, and now writes can happen. This is
guaranteed by VFS. But it is good to double-check this, so this
patch also adds many "ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media)" checks.
In the 'ubifs_remount_fs()' function this patch makes a bit more
changes - it fixes the error messages as well.

The UBIFS bug in the GC list sorting comparison functions inspired
me to write internal debugging check functions which verify that
the list of nodes is sorted properly.
So, this patch implements 2 new debugging functions:
o 'dbg_check_data_nodes_order()' - check order of data nodes list
o 'dbg_check_nondata_nodes_order()' - check order of non-data nodes list
The debugging functions are executed only if general UBIFS debugging checks are
enabled. And they are compiled out if UBIFS debugging is disabled.

When running the integrity test ('integck' from mtd-utils) on current
UBIFS on 2.6.35, I see that assertions in UBIFS 'list_sort()' comparison
functions trigger sometimes, e.g.:
UBIFS assert failed in data_nodes_cmp at 132 (pid 28311)
My investigation showed that this happens when 'list_sort()' calls the 'cmp()'
function with equivalent arguments. In this case, the 'struct list_head'
parameter, passed to 'cmp()' is bogus, and it does not belong to any element in
the original list.
And this issue seems to be introduced by commit:
commit 835cc0c847
Author: Don Mullis <don.mullis@gmail.com>
Date: Fri Mar 5 13:43:15 2010 -0800
It is easy to work around the issue by doing:
if (a == b)
return 0;
in UBIFS. It works, but 'lib_sort()' should nevertheless be fixed. Although it
is harmless to have this piece of code in UBIFS.
This patch adds that code to both UBIFS 'cmp()' functions:
'data_nodes_cmp()' and 'nondata_nodes_cmp()'.

When scanning the flash, UBIFS builds a list of flash nodes of type
'struct ubifs_scan_node'. Each scanned node has a 'snod->key' field. This field
is valid for most of the nodes, but invalid for some node type, e.g., truncation
nodes. It is safer to explicitly initialize such keys to something invalid,
rather than leaving them initialized to all zeros, which has key type of
UBIFS_INO_KEY.
This patch introduces new "fake" key type UBIFS_INVALID_KEY and initializes
unused 'snod->key' objects to this type. It also adds debugging assertions in
the TNC code to make sure no one ever tries to look these nodes up in the TNC.
Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
In the scanning code, in 'ubifs_add_snod()', we write rubbish into
'snod->key', because we assume that on-flash truncation nodes have a key, but
they do not. If the other parts of UBIFS then mistakenly try to look-up
the truncation node key (they should not do this, but may do because of a bug),
we can succeed and corrupt TNC. It looks like we did have such a situation in
'sort_nodes()' in gc.c.

In comparison function for 'list_sort()' we use key type to distinguish between
node types. However, we have a bit simper way to detect node type -
'snod->type'. This more logical to use, comparing to decoding key types. Also
allows to get rid of 2 local variables.

When moving nodes in GC, do not try to look up truncation nodes in TNC,
because they do not exist there. This would be harmless, because the TNC
look-up would fail, if we did not have bug 'ubifs_add_snod()' which reads
garbage into 'snod->key'. But in any case, it is less error prone to
explicitly ignore everything but inode, data, dentry and xentry nodes.

In 'ubifs_garbage_collect()' on error path, we first switch to R/O mode, and
then synchronize write-buffers (to make sure no data are lost). But the GC
write-buffer synchronization will fail, because we are already in R/O mode.
This patch re-orders this and makes sure we first synchronize the write-buffer,

As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and
simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error. This
simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize
almost everywhere. Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark
ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious.
Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an
audit for its removal anyway.
Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and
needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.

UBIFS tries to alway have an LEB reserved for GC, and stores it
in c->gc_lnum. Besides, there is GC head which points to the current
GC head LEB.
In case of an unclean power cut, what may happen is that the GC head
was switched to the reserved GC LEB (c->gc_lnum), but a new reserved
GC LEB was not created yet. So, after an unclean reboot we may have
no reserved GC LEB, and we need to find a new LEB for this.
To do this, we find a dirty LEB which can fit the current GC head,
move the data, unmap this dirty LEB, and it becomes our reserved GC
LEB.
However, if we cannot find a dirty enough LEB, we return failure,
which is wrong, because we still can have free LEBs to use for
the reserved GC LEB. This patch fixes the issue.
This patch also fixes few typos in comments, which were spotted by
aspell.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

This reverts commit a069c266ae.
It turns ou that not only was it missing a case (XFS) that needed it,
but perhaps more importantly, people sometimes want to enable new
modules that they hadn't had enabled before, and if such a module uses
list_sort(), it can't easily be inserted any more.
So rather than add a "select LIST_SORT" to the XFS case, just leave it
compiled in. It's not all _that_ big, after all, and the inconvenience
isn't worth it.
