The brelse() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This is a late set of changes from Deepa Dinamani doing an automated
treewide conversion of the inode and iattr structures from 'timespec'
to 'timespec64', to push the conversion from the VFS layer into the
individual file systems.
There were no conflicts between this and the contents of linux-next
until just before the merge window, when we saw multiple problems:
- A minor conflict with my own y2038 fixes, which I could address
by adding another patch on top here.
- One semantic conflict with late changes to the NFS tree. I addressed
this by merging Deepa's original branch on top of the changes that
now got merged into mainline and making sure the merge commit includes
the necessary changes as produced by coccinelle.
- A trivial conflict against the removal of staging/lustre.
- Multiple conflicts against the VFS changes in the overlayfs tree.
These are still part of linux-next, but apparently this is no longer
intended for 4.18 [1], so I am ignoring that part.
As Deepa writes:
The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64.
Currently vfs uses struct timespec, which is not y2038 safe.
The series involves the following:
1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64 timestamps.
2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch.
3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual
replacement becomes easy.
4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script.
This is a flag day patch.
Next steps:
1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, instead of converting
timestamps at the boundaries.
2. Update internal data structures to avoid timestamp conversions.
Thomas Gleixner adds:
I think there is no point to drag that out for the next merge window.
The whole thing needs to be done in one go for the core changes which
means that you're going to play that catchup game forever. Let's get
over with it towards the end of the merge window.

Mark the source inode dirty during a rename instead of just updating the
underlying buffer head. Otherwise, fsync may find the inode clean and
will then skip flushing the journal. A subsequent power failure will
cause the rename to be lost. This happens in command sequences like:
xfs_io -f -c 'pwrite 0 4096' -c 'fsync' foo
mv foo bar
xfs_io -c 'fsync' bar
# power failure

because we held some back from the previous merge window until we
could get them perfected and well tested. We have a couple patch
sets, including my patch set for protecting glock gl_object and
Andreas Gruenbacher's patch set to fix the long-standing shrink-
slab hang, plus a bunch of assorted bugs and cleanups:
1. I fixed a bug whereby an IO error would lead to a double-brelse.
2. Andreas Gruenbacher made a minor cleanup to call his relatively
new function, gfs2_holder_initialized, rather than doing it
manually. This was just missed by a previous patch set.
3. Jan Kara fixed a bug whereby the SGID was being cleared when
inheriting ACLs.
4. Andreas found a bug and fixed it in his previous patch,
"Get rid of flush_delayed_work in gfs2_evict_inode". A call to
flush_delayed_work was deleted from *gfs2_inode_lookup and added
to gfs2_create_inode.
5. Wang Xibo found and fixed a list_add call in inode_go_lock
that specified the parameters in the wrong order.
6. Coly Li submitted a patch to add the REQ_PRIO to some of GFS2's
metadata reads that were accidentally missing them.
7 - 10. I submitted a 4-patch set to protect the glock gl_object
field. GFS2 was setting and checking gl_object with no locking
mechanism, so the value was occasionally stomped on, which caused
file system corruption.
11. I submitted a small cleanup to function gfs2_clear_rgrpd.
It was needlessly adding rgrp glocks to the lru list, then pulling
them back off immediately. The rgrp glocks don't use the lru list
anyway, so doing so was just a waste of time.
12. I submitted a patch that checks the GLOF_LRU flag on a glock
before trying to remove it from the lru_list. This avoids a lot
of unnecessary spin_lock contention.
13. I submitted a patch to delete GFS2's debugfs files only after
we evict all the glocks. Before this patch, GFS2 would delete the
debugfs files, and if unmount hung waiting for a glock, there was
no way to debug the problem. Now, if a hang occurs during umount,
we can examine the debugfs files to figure out why it's hung.
14. Andreas Gruenbacher submitted a patch to fix some trivial typos.
15 - 19. Andreas also submitted a five-part patch set to fix the
longstanding hang involving the slab shrinker: dlm requires
memory, calls the inode shrinker, which calls gfs2's evict, which
calls back into DLM before it can evict an inode.
20. Abhi Das submitted a patch to forcibly flush the active items
list to relieve memory pressure. This fixes a long-standing bug
whereby GFS2 was getting hung permanently in balance_dirty_pages.
21. Thomas Tai submitted a patch to fix a slab corruption problem
due to a residual pointer left in the lock_dlm lockstruct.
22. I submitted a patch to withdraw the file system if IO errors
are encountered while writing to the journals or statfs system
file which were previously not being sent back up. Before, some
IO errors were sometimes not be detected for several hours, and
at recovery time, the journal errors made journal replay
impossible.
23. Andreas has a patch to fix an annoying format-truncation compiler
warning so GFS2 compiles cleanly.
24. I have a patch that fixes a handful of sparse compiler warnings.
25. Andreas fixed up an useless gl_object warning caused by an
earlier patch.
26. Arvind Yadav added a patch to properly constify our rhashtable
params declare.
27. I added a patch to fix a regression caused by the non-recursive
delete and truncate patch that caused file system blocks to not
be properly freed.
28. Ernesto A. Fernández added a patch to fix a place where GFS2
would send back the wrong return code setting extended attributes.
29. Ernesto also added a patch to fix a case in which GFS2 was
improperly setting an inode's i_mode, potentially granting access
to the wrong users.

When gfs2 does metadata I/O, only REQ_META is used as a metadata hint of
the bio. But flag REQ_META is just a hint for block trace, not for block
layer code to handle a bio as metadata request.
For some of metadata I/Os of gfs2, A REQ_PRIO flag on the metadata bio
would be very informative to block layer code. For example, if bcache is
used as a I/O cache for gfs2, it will be possible for bcache code to get
the hint and cache the pre-fetched metadata blocks on cache device. This
behavior may be helpful to improve metadata I/O performance if the
following requests hit the cache.
Here are the locations in gfs2 code where a REQ_PRIO flag should be added,
- All places where REQ_READAHEAD is used, gfs2 code uses this flag for
metadata read ahead.
- In gfs2_meta_rq() where the first metadata block is read in.
- In gfs2_write_buf_to_page(), read in quota metadata blocks to have them
up to date.
These metadata blocks are probably to be accessed again in future, adding
a REQ_PRIO flag may have bcache to keep such metadata in fast cache
device. For system without a cache layer, REQ_PRIO can still provide hint
to block layer to handle metadata requests more properly.

CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it

Use current_time() instead.
CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.
This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.
Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.

The current gfs2_lookup_by_inum takes the glock of a presumed inode
identified by block number, verifies that the block is indeed an inode,
and then instantiates and reads the new inode via gfs2_inode_lookup.
However, instantiating a new inode may block on freeing a previous
instance of that inode (__wait_on_freeing_inode), and freeing an inode
requires to take the glock already held, leading to lock inversion and
deadlock.
Fix this by first instantiating the new inode, then verifying that the
block is an inode (if required), and then reading in the new inode, all
in gfs2_inode_lookup.
If the block we are looking for is not an inode, we discard the new
inode via iget_failed, which marks inodes as bad and unhashes them.
Other tasks waiting on that inode will get back a bad inode back from
ilookup or iget_locked; in that case, retry the lookup.

Most users of IS_ERR_VALUE() in the kernel are wrong, as they
pass an 'int' into a function that takes an 'unsigned long'
argument. This happens to work because the type is sign-extended
on 64-bit architectures before it gets converted into an
unsigned type.
However, anything that passes an 'unsigned short' or 'unsigned int'
argument into IS_ERR_VALUE() is guaranteed to be broken, as are
8-bit integers and types that are wider than 'unsigned long'.
Andrzej Hajda has already fixed a lot of the worst abusers that
were causing actual bugs, but it would be nice to prevent any
users that are not passing 'unsigned long' arguments.
This patch changes all users of IS_ERR_VALUE() that I could find
on 32-bit ARM randconfig builds and x86 allmodconfig. For the
moment, this doesn't change the definition of IS_ERR_VALUE()
because there are probably still architecture specific users
elsewhere.
Almost all the warnings I got are for files that are better off
using 'if (err)' or 'if (err < 0)'.
The only legitimate user I could find that we get a warning for
is the (32-bit only) freescale fman driver, so I did not remove
the IS_ERR_VALUE() there but changed the type to 'unsigned long'.
For 9pfs, I just worked around one user whose calling conventions
are so obscure that I did not dare change the behavior.
I was using this definition for testing:
#define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) ((unsigned long*)NULL == (typeof (x)*)NULL && \
unlikely((unsigned long long)(x) >= (unsigned long long)(typeof(x))-MAX_ERRNO))
which ends up making all 16-bit or wider types work correctly with
the most plausible interpretation of what IS_ERR_VALUE() was supposed
to return according to its users, but also causes a compile-time
warning for any users that do not pass an 'unsigned long' argument.
I suggested this approach earlier this year, but back then we ended
up deciding to just fix the users that are obviously broken. After
the initial warning that caused me to get involved in the discussion
(fs/gfs2/dir.c) showed up again in the mainline kernel, Linus
asked me to send the whole thing again.

gfs2 currently returns 31 bits of filename hash as a cookie that readdir
uses for an offset into the directory. When there are a large number of
directory entries, the likelihood of a collision goes up way too
quickly. GFS2 will now return cookies that are guaranteed unique for a
while, and then fail back to using 30 bits of filename hash.
Specifically, the directory leaf blocks are divided up into chunks based
on the minimum size of a gfs2 directory entry (48 bytes). Each entry's
cookie is based off the chunk where it starts, in the linked list of
leaf blocks that it hashes to (there are 131072 hash buckets). Directory
entries will have unique names until they take reach chunk 8192.
Assuming the largest filenames possible, and the least efficient spacing
possible, this new method will still be able to return unique names when
the previous method has statistically more than a 99% chance of a
collision. The non-unique names it fails back to are guaranteed to not
collide with the unique names.
unique cookies will be in this format:
- 1 bit "0" to make sure the the returned cookie is positive
- 17 bits for the hash table index
- 1 bit for the mode "0"
- 13 bits for the offset
non-unique cookies will be in this format:
- 1 bit "0" to make sure the the returned cookie is positive
- 17 bits for the hash table index
- 1 bit for the mode "1"
- 13 more bits of the name hash
Another benefit of location based cookies, is that once a directory's
exhash table is fully extended (so that multiple hash table indexs do
not use the same leaf blocks), gfs2 can skip sorting the directory
entries until it reaches the non-unique ones, and then it only needs to
sort these. This provides a significant speed up for directory reads of
very large directories.
The only issue is that for these cookies to continue to point to the
correct entry as files are added and removed from the directory, gfs2
must keep the entries at the same offset in the leaf block when they are
split (see my previous patch). This means that until all the nodes in a
cluster are running with code that will split the directory leaf blocks
this way, none of the nodes can use the new cookie code. To deal with
this, gfs2 now has the mount option loccookie, which, if set, will make
it return these new location based cookies. This option must not be set
until all nodes in the cluster are at least running this version of the
kernel code, and you have guaranteed that there are no outstanding
cookies required by other software, such as NFS.
gfs2 uses some of the extra space at the end of the gfs2_dirent
structure to store the calculated readdir cookies. This keeps us from
needing to allocate a seperate array to hold these values. gfs2
recomputes the cookie stored in de_cookie for every readdir call. The
time it takes to do so is small, and if gfs2 expected this value to be
saved on disk, the new code wouldn't work correctly on filesystems
created with an earlier version of gfs2.
One issue with adding de_cookie to the union in the gfs2_dirent
structure is that it caused the union to align itself to a 4 byte
boundary, instead of its previous 2 byte boundary. This changed the
offset of de_rahead. To solve that, I pulled de_rahead out of the union,
since it does not need to be there.

Currently, when gfs2 splits a directory leaf block, the dirents that
need to be copied to the new leaf block are packed into the start of it.
This is good for space efficiency. However, if gfs2 were to copy those
dirents into the exact same offset in the new leaf block as they had in
the old block, it would be able to generate a readdir cookie based on
the dirent location, that would be guaranteed to be unique up well past
where the current code is statistically almost guaranteed to have
collisions. So, gfs2 now keeps the dirent's offset in the block the
same when it copies it to the new leaf block.

Convert the following where appropriate:
(1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).
(2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).
(3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more
complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in
question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
a ->d_automount op.
In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).
Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.
However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.
There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.

This patch fixes a regression in the patch "GFS2: Remember directory
insert point", commit 2b47dad866.
The problem had to do with the rename function: The function found
space for the new dirent, and remembered that location. But then the
old dirent was removed, which often moved the eligible location for
the renamed dirent. Putting the new dirent at the saved location
caused file system corruption.
This patch adds a new "save_loc" variable to struct gfs2_diradd.
If 1, the dirent location is saved. If 0, the dirent location is not
saved and the buffer_head is released as per previous behavior.

The intent of this new field in the directory entry is to
allow a subsequent lookup to know how many blocks, which
are contiguous with the inode, contain metadata which relates
to the inode. This will then allow the issuing of a single
read to read these blocks, rather than reading the inode
first, and then issuing a second read for the metadata.
This only works under some fairly strict conditions, since
we do not have back pointers from inodes to directory entries
we must ensure that the blocks referenced in this way will
always belong to the inode.
This rules out being able to use this system for indirect
blocks, as these can change as a result of truncate/rewrite.
So the idea here is to restrict this to xattr blocks only
for the time being. For most inodes, that means only a
single block. Also, when using ACLs and/or SELinux or
other LSMs, these will be added at inode creation time
so that they will be contiguous with the inode on disk and
also will almost always be needed when we read the inode in
for permissions checks.
Once an xattr block for an inode is allocated, it will never
change until the inode is deallocated.
This patch adds the new field, a further patch will add the
readahead in due course.

This patch adds four new fields to directory leaf blocks.
The intent is not to use them in the kernel itself, although
perhaps we may be able to use them as hints at some later date,
but instead to provide more information for debug/fsck use.
One new field adds a pointer to the inode to which the leaf
belongs. This can be useful if the pointer to the leaf block
has become corrupt, as it will allow us to know which inode
this block should be associated with. This field is set when
the leaf is created and never changed over its lifetime.
The second field is a "distance from the hash table" field.
The meaning is as follows:
0 = An old leaf in which this value has not been set
1 = This leaf is pointed to directly from the hash table
2+ = This leaf is part of a chain, pointed to by another leaf
block, the value gives the position in the chain.
The third and fourth fields combine to give a time stamp of
the most recent directory insertion or deletion from this
leaf block. The time stamp is not updated when a new leaf
block is chained from the current one. The code is currently
written such that the timestamp on the dir inode will match
that of the leaf block for the most recent insertion/deletion.
For backwards compatibility, any of these new fields which is
zero should be considered to be "unknown".
