Enhance the inode allocator to take a goal inode number as a
paremeter; if it is specified, it takes precedence over Orlov or
parent directory inode allocation algorithms.
The extents migration function uses the goal inode number so that the
extent trees allocated the migration function use the correct flex_bg.
In the future, the goal inode functionality will also be used to
allocate an adjacent inode for the extended attributes.
Also, for testing purposes the goal inode number can be specified via
/sys/fs/{dev}/inode_goal. This can be useful for testing inode
allocation beyond 2^32 blocks on very large filesystems.

touch lock_super() on their own. Out of those ext3, ext4, hpfs, sysv and ufs

Move BKL into ->put_super from the only caller. A couple of
filesystems had trivial enough ->put_super (only kfree and NULLing of
s_fs_info + stuff in there) to not get any locking: coda, cramfs, efs,
hugetlbfs, omfs, qnx4, shmem, all others got the full treatment. Most
of them probably don't need it, but I'd rather sort that out individually.
Preferably after all the other BKL pushdowns in that area.

We can't run into contention on it. All other callers of lock_super()
either hold s_umount (and we have it exclusive) or hold an active
reference to superblock in question, which prevents the call of
generic_shutdown_super() while the reference is held. So we can
replace lock_super(s) with get_fs_excl() in generic_shutdown_super()
(and corresponding change for unlock_super(), of course).
Since ext4 expects s_lock held for its put_super, take lock_super()
into it. The rest of filesystems do not care at all.

We just did a full fs writeout using sync_filesystem before, and if
that's not enough for the filesystem it can perform it's own writeout
in ->put_super, which many filesystems already do.
Move a call to foofs_write_super into every foofs_put_super for now to
guarantee identical behaviour until it's cleaned up by the individual
filesystem maintainers.
Exceptions:
- affs already has identical copy & pasted code at the beginning of
affs_put_super so no need to do it twice.
- xfs does the right thing without it and I have changes pending for

To catch filesystem bugs or corruption which could lead to the
filesystem getting severly damaged, this patch adds a facility for
tracking all of the filesystem metadata blocks by contiguous regions
in a red-black tree. This allows quick searching of the tree to
locate extents which might overlap with filesystem metadata blocks.
This facility is also used by the multi-block allocator to assure that
it is not allocating blocks out of the system zone, as well as by the
routines used when reading indirect blocks and extents information
from disk to make sure their contents are valid.

The function ext4_mark_recovery_complete() is called from two call
paths: either (a) while mounting the filesystem, in which case there's
no danger of any other CPU calling write_super() until the mount is
completed, and (b) while remounting the filesystem read-write, in
which case the fs core has already locked the superblock. This also
allows us to take out a very vile unlock_super()/lock_super() pair in
ext4_remount().

Ext4's on-line resizing adds a new block group and then, only at the
last step adjusts s_groups_count. However, it's possible on SMP
systems that another CPU could see the updated the s_group_count and
not see the newly initialized data structures for the just-added block
group. For this reason, it's important to insert a SMP read barrier
after reading s_groups_count and before reading any (for example) the
new block group descriptors allowed by the increased value of
s_groups_count.
Unfortunately, we rather blatently violate this locking protocol
documented in fs/ext4/resize.c. Fortunately, (1) on-line resizes
happen relatively rarely, and (2) it seems rare that the filesystem
code will immediately try to use just-added block group before any
memory ordering issues resolve themselves. So apparently problems
here are relatively hard to hit, since ext3 has been vulnerable to the
same issue for years with no one apparently complaining.

The s_dirt flag wasn't completely handled correctly, but it didn't
really matter when journalling was enabled. It turns out that when
ext4 runs without a journal, we don't clear s_dirt in places where we
should have, with the result that the high-level write_super()
function was writing the superblock when it wasn't necessary.
So we fix this by making ext4_commit_super() clear the s_dirt flag,
and removing many of the other places where s_dirt is manipulated.
When journalling is enabled, the s_dirt flag might be left set more
often, but s_dirt really doesn't matter when journalling is enabled.

For very large filesystems, the s_flex_groups array can get quite big.
For example, a filesystem that can be resized up to 16TB will have
8192 flex groups (assuming the default flex_bg size of 16), so the
array is 96k, which is *very* marginal for kmalloc(). On the other
hand, a 160GB filesystem without the resize_inode feature will only
require 960 bytes. So we try to allocate the array first using
kmalloc(), and if that fails, we'll try to use vmalloc() instead.

As spotted by kmemtrace, struct ext4_sb_info is 17664 bytes on 64-bit
which makes it a very bad fit for SLAB allocators. The culprit of the
wasted memory is ->s_blockgroup_lock which can be as big as 16 KB when
NR_CPUS >= 32.
To fix that, allocate ->s_blockgroup_lock, which fits nicely in a order 2
page in the worst case, separately. This shinks down struct ext4_sb_info
enough to fit a 2 KB slab cache so now we allocate 16 KB + 2 KB instead of
32 KB saving 14 KB of memory.

Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which
suspends write requests. So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the
filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and
replication) while it is mounted.
In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g. VxFS) has the freeze feature
and it would be used to get the consistent backup.
If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it
without a commercial filesystem.
So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature.
I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps.
1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl.
2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot
with the storage device's feature.
3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl.
4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume
or the snapshot.
This patch:
VFS:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they can return an error.
Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation
freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion.
ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed,
and unlockfs always returns 0.
reiserfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.

This mount option is largely superfluous, and in fact the way it was
implemented was buggy; if a filesystem which did not have the extents
feature flag was mounted -o extents, the filesystem would attempt to
create and use extents-based file even though the extents feature flag
was not eabled. The simplest thing to do is to nuke the mount option
entirely. It's not all that useful to force the non-creation of new
extent-based files if the filesystem can support it.

Pages in the page cache belonging to ext4 data files are released via
the ext4_releasepage() function specified in the ext4 inode's
address_space_ops. However, metadata blocks (such as indirect blocks,
directory blocks, etc) are managed via the block device
address_space_ops, and they can not be released by
try_to_free_buffers() if they have a journal head attached to them.
To address this, we supply a release_metadata function which calls
jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() function to free the metadata, and
which is called by the block device's blkdev_releasepage() function.

A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run
without a journal. Since that time I've integrated the excellent
comments from Andreas and fixed several serious bugs. We're currently
running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without
a journal. It just so happens that running without a journal is
slightly faster for most everything.
We did
iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2
which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
to bypass the page cache. Results:
ext2 ext4, default ext4, no journal
initial writes 13.0 MB/s 15.4 MB/s 15.7 MB/s
rewrites 13.1 MB/s 15.6 MB/s 15.9 MB/s
reads 15.2 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s
re-reads 15.3 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s
random readers 5.6 MB/s 5.6 MB/s 5.7 MB/s
random writers 5.1 MB/s 5.3 MB/s 5.4 MB/s

not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of
fsync_super. Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits,
seeing the UMOUNT flag and the dirty pages are never written to the
backing block device, causing long symlink corruption and exposing new
or previously freed block data to userspace.
To ensure all commits are synced, we flush all journal commits now
when sync_fs'ing ext4.

The original ext3 hash algorithms assumed that variables of type char
were signed, as God and K&R intended. Unfortunately, this assumption
is not true on some architectures. Userspace support for marking

If the journal doesn't abort when it gets an IO error in file data
blocks, the file data corruption will spread silently. Because
most of applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(),
they don't notice the IO error. It's scary for mission critical
systems. On the other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets
an IO error in file data blocks, the system will easily become
inoperable. So this patch introduces a filesystem option to
determine whether it aborts the journal or just call printk() when
it gets an IO error in file data.
If you mount an ext4 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file
data write error. If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't
abort, just call printk(). data_err=ignore is the default.
Here is the corresponding patch of the ext3 version:

If the journal has aborted due to a checkpointing failure, we
have to keep the contents of the journal space. Otherwise, the
filesystem will lose uncheckpointed metadata completely and
become inconsistent. To avoid this, we need to keep needs_recovery
flag if checkpoint has failed.
With this patch, ext4_put_super() detects a checkpointing failure
from the return value of journal_destroy(), then it invokes
ext4_abort() to make the filesystem read only and keep
needs_recovery flag. Errors from jbd2_journal_flush() are also
handled by this patch in some places.

This patch mostly controls the way inode are allocated in order to
make ialloc aware of flex_bg block group grouping. It achieves this
by bypassing the Orlov allocator when block group meta-data are packed
toghether through mke2fs. Since the impact on the block allocator is
minimal, this patch should have little or no effect on other block
allocation algorithms. By controlling the inode allocation, it can
basically control where the initial search for new block begins and
thus indirectly manipulate the block allocator.
This allocator favors data and meta-data locality so the disk will
gradually be filled from block group zero upward. This helps improve
performance by reducing seek time. Since the group of inode tables
within one flex_bg are treated as one giant inode table, uninitialized
block groups would not need to partially initialize as many inode
table as with Orlov which would help fsck time as the filesystem usage
goes up.

This flag is simply a generic "this is a crash/burn test filesystem"
marker. If it is set, then filesystem code which is "in development"
will be allowed to mount the filesystem. Filesystem code which is not
considered ready for prime-time will check for this flag, and if it is
not set, it will refuse to touch the filesystem.
As we start rolling ext4 out to distro's like Fedora, et. al, this makes
it less likely that a user might accidentally start using ext4 on a
production filesystem; a bad thing, since that will essentially make it
be unfsckable until e2fsprogs catches up.

Stop the EXT4 filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace
ext4_read_inode() with ext4_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
ext4_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.
ext4_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.

The journal checksum feature adds two new flags i.e
JBD2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_ASYNC_COMMIT and JBD2_FEATURE_COMPAT_CHECKSUM.
JBD2_FEATURE_CHECKSUM flag indicates that the commit block contains the
checksum for the blocks described by the descriptor blocks.
Due to checksums, writing of the commit record no longer needs to be
synchronous. Now commit record can be sent to disk without waiting for
descriptor blocks to be written to disk. This behavior is controlled
using JBD2_FEATURE_ASYNC_COMMIT flag. Older kernels/e2fsck should not be
able to recover the journal with _ASYNC_COMMIT hence it is made
incompat.
The commit header has been extended to hold the checksum along with the
type of the checksum.
For recovery in pass scan checksums are verified to ensure the sanity
and completeness(in case of _ASYNC_COMMIT) of every transaction.

When mounting an ext4 filesystem with corrupted s_first_data_block, things
can go very wrong and oops.
Because blocks_count in ext4_fill_super is a u64, and we must use do_div,
the calculation of db_count is done differently than on ext4. If
first_data_block is corrupted such that it is larger than ext4_blocks_count,
for example, then the intermediate blocks_count value may go negative,
but sign-extend to a very large value:
blocks_count = (ext4_blocks_count(es) -
le32_to_cpu(es->s_first_data_block) +
EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) - 1);
This is then assigned to s_groups_count which is an unsigned long:
sbi->s_groups_count = blocks_count;
This may result in a value of 0xFFFFFFFF which is then used to compute
db_count:
db_count = (sbi->s_groups_count + EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb) - 1) /
EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb);
and in this case db_count will wind up as 0 because the addition overflows
32 bits. This in turn causes the kmalloc for group_desc to be of 0 size:
sbi->s_group_desc = kmalloc(db_count * sizeof (struct buffer_head *),
GFP_KERNEL);
and eventually in ext4_check_descriptors, dereferencing
sbi->s_group_desc[desc_block] will result in a NULL pointer dereference.
The simplest test seems to be to sanity check s_first_data_block,
EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP, and ext4_blocks_count values to be sure
their combination won't result in a bad intermediate value for
blocks_count. We could just check for db_count == 0, but
catching it at the root cause seems like it provides more info.

This patch set supports large block size(>4k, <=64k) in ext4,
just enlarging the block size limit. But it is NOT possible to have 64kB
blocksize on ext4 without some changes to the directory handling
code. The reason is that an empty 64kB directory block would have a
rec_len == (__u16)2^16 == 0, and this would cause an error to be hit in
the filesystem. The proposed solution is treat 64k rec_len
with a an impossible value like rec_len = 0xffff to handle this.
The Patch-set consists of the following 2 patches.
[1/2] ext4: enlarge blocksize
- Allow blocksize up to pagesize
[2/2] ext4: fix rec_len overflow
- prevent rec_len from overflow with 64KB blocksize
Now on 64k page ppc64 box runs with this patch set we could create a 64k

In pass1 of e2fsck, every inode table in the fileystem is scanned and checked,
regardless of whether it is in use. This is this the most time consuming part
of the filesystem check. The unintialized block group feature can greatly
reduce e2fsck time by eliminating checking of uninitialized inodes.
With this feature, there is a a high water mark of used inodes for each block
group. Block and inode bitmaps can be uninitialized on disk via a flag in the
group descriptor to avoid reading or scanning them at e2fsck time. A checksum
of each group descriptor is used to ensure that corruption in the group
descriptor's bit flags does not cause incorrect operation.
The feature is enabled through a mkfs option
mke2fs /dev/ -O uninit_groups
A patch adding support for uninitialized block groups to e2fsprogs tools has
been posted to the linux-ext4 mailing list.
The patches have been stress tested with fsstress and fsx. In performance
tests testing e2fsck time, we have seen that e2fsck time on ext3 grows
linearly with the total number of inodes in the filesytem. In ext4 with the
uninitialized block groups feature, the e2fsck time is constant, based
solely on the number of used inodes rather than the total inode count.
Since typical ext4 filesystems only use 1-10% of their inodes, this feature can
greatly reduce e2fsck time for users. With performance improvement of 2-20
times, depending on how full the filesystem is.
The attached graph shows the major improvements in e2fsck times in filesystems
with a large total inode count, but few inodes in use.
In each group descriptor if we have
EXT4_BG_INODE_UNINIT set in bg_flags:
Inode table is not initialized/used in this group. So we can skip
the consistency check during fsck.
EXT4_BG_BLOCK_UNINIT set in bg_flags:
No block in the group is used. So we can skip the block bitmap
verification for this group.
We also add two new fields to group descriptor as a part of
uninitialized group patch.
__le16 bg_itable_unused; /* Unused inodes count */
__le16 bg_checksum; /* crc16(sb_uuid+group+desc) */
bg_itable_unused:
If we have EXT4_BG_INODE_UNINIT not set in bg_flags
then bg_itable_unused will give the offset within
the inode table till the inodes are used. This can be
used by fsck to skip list of inodes that are marked unused.
bg_checksum:
Now that we depend on bg_flags and bg_itable_unused to determine
the block and inode usage, we need to make sure group descriptor
is not corrupt. We add checksum to group descriptor to
detect corruption. If the descriptor is found to be corrupt, we
mark all the blocks and inodes in the group used.

ext[234]_check_descriptors sanity checks block group descriptor geometry at
mount time, testing whether the block bitmap, inode bitmap, and inode table
reside wholly within the blockgroup. However, the inode table test is off
by one so that if the last block in the inode table resides on the last
block of the block group, the test incorrectly fails. This is because it
tests the last block as (start + length) rather than (start + length - 1).
This can be seen by trying to mount a filesystem made such as:
mkfs.ext2 -F -b 1024 -m 0 -g 256 -N 3744 fsfile 1024
which yields:
EXT2-fs error (device loop0): ext2_check_descriptors: Inode table for group 0 not in group (block 101)!

This patch adds nanosecond timestamps for ext4. This involves adding
*time_extra fields to the ext4_inode to extend the timestamps to
64-bits. Creation time is also added by this patch.
These extended fields will fit into an inode if the filesystem was
formatted with large inodes (-I 256 or larger) and there are currently
no EAs consuming all of the available space. For new inodes we always
reserve enough space for the kernel's known extended fields, but for
inodes created with an old kernel this might not have been the case. So
this patch also adds the EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE feature
flag(ro-compat so that older kernels can't create inodes with a smaller
extra_isize). which indicates if the fields fitting inside
s_min_extra_isize are available or not. If the expansion of inodes if
unsuccessful then this feature will be disabled. This feature is only
enabled if requested by the sysadmin.
None of the extended inode fields is critical for correct filesystem
operation.

This is a patch that speeds up statfs. It is very simple - the "overhead"
calculation, which takes a huge amount of time for large filesystems, never
changes unless the size of the filesystem itself changes. That means we can
store it in memory and only recalculate if the filesystem has been resized
(almost never).
It also fixes a minor problem that we never update the on-disk superblock free
blocks/inodes counts until the filesystem is unmounted. While not fatal, we
may as well update that on disk when we have the information, and it makes
things like debugfs and dumpe2fs report a bit more accurate info.

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.

Fix insecure default behaviour reported by Tigran Aivazian: if an ext2 or
ext3 or ext4 filesystem is tuned to mount with "acl", but mounted by a
kernel built without ACL support, then umask was ignored when creating
inodes - though root or user has umask 022, touch creates files as 0666,
and mkdir creates directories as 0777.
This appears to have worked right until 2.6.11, when a fix to the default
mode on symlinks (always 0777) assumed VFS applies umask: which it does,
unless the mount is marked for ACLs; but ext[234] set MS_POSIXACL in
s_flags according to s_mount_opt set according to def_mount_opts.
We could revert to the 2.6.10 ext[234]_init_acl (adding an S_ISLNK test);
but other filesystems only set MS_POSIXACL when ACLs are configured. We
could fix this at another level; but it seems most robust to avoid setting
the s_mount_opt flag in the first place (at the expense of more ifdefs).
Likewise don't set the XATTR_USER flag when built without XATTR support.

In the rare case where we have skipped orphan inode processing due to a
readonly block device, and the block device subsequently changes back to
read-write, disallow a remount,rw transition of the filesystem when we have an
unprocessed orphan inodes as this would corrupt the list.
Ideally we should process the orphan inode list during the remount, but that's
trickier, and this plugs the hole for now.

If you do something like:
# touch foo
# tail -f foo &
# rm foo
# <take snapshot>
# <mount snapshot>
you'll panic, because ext3/4 tries to do orphan list processing on the
readonly snapshot device, and:
kernel: journal commit I/O error
kernel: Assertion failure in journal_flush_Rsmp_e2f189ce() at journal.c:1356: "!journal->j_checkpoint_transactions"
kernel: Kernel panic: Fatal exception
for a truly readonly underlying device, it's reasonable and necessary
to just skip orphan list processing.

Current error behaviour for ext2 and ext3 filesystems does not fully
correspond to the documentation and should be fixed.
According to man 8 mount, ext2 and ext3 file systems allow to set one of 3
different on-errors behaviours:
---- start of quote man 8 mount ----
errors=continue / errors=remount-ro / errors=panic
Define the behaviour when an error is encountered. (Either ignore
errors and just mark the file system erroneous and continue, or remount
the file system read-only, or panic and halt the system.) The default is
set in the filesystem superblock, and can be changed using tune2fs(8).
---- end of quote ----
However EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE is not read from the superblock, and thus
ERRORS_CONT is not saved on the sbi->s_mount_opt. It leads to the incorrect
handle of errors on ext3.
Then we've checked corresponding code in ext2 and discovered that it is buggy
as well:
- EXT2_ERRORS_CONTINUE is not read from the superblock (the same);
- parse_option() does not clean the alternative values and thus something
like (ERRORS_CONT|ERRORS_RO) can be set;
- if options are omitted, parse_option() does not set any of these options.
Therefore it is possible to set any combination of these options on the ext2:
- none of them may be set: EXT2_ERRORS_CONTINUE on superblock / empty mount
options;
- any of them may be set using mount options;
- 2 any options may be set: by using EXT2_ERRORS_RO/EXT2_ERRORS_PANIC on the
superblock and other value in mount options;
- and finally all three options may be set by adding third option in remount.
Currently ext2 uses these values only in ext2_error() and it is not leading to
any noticeable troubles. However somebody may be discouraged when he will try
to workaround EXT2_ERRORS_PANIC on the superblock by using errors=continue in
mount options.
This patch:
EXT4_ERRORS_CONTINUE should be taken from the superblock as default value for
error behaviour.

With CONFIG_LBD=n, sector_div() expands to a plain old divide. But ext4 is
_not_ passing in a sector_t as the first argument, so...
fs/built-in.o: In function `ext4_get_group_no_and_offset':
fs/ext4/balloc.c:39: undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
fs/ext4/balloc.c:41: undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
fs/built-in.o: In function `find_group_orlov':
fs/ext4/ialloc.c:278: undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
fs/built-in.o: In function `ext4_fill_super':
fs/ext4/super.c:1488: undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
fs/ext4/super.c:1488: undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
fs/ext4/super.c:1594: undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
fs/ext4/super.c:1601: undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
Fix that up by calling do_div() directly.
Also cast the arg to u64. do_div() is only defined on u64, and ext4_fsblk_t
is supposed to be opaque.
Note especially the changes to find_group_orlov(). It was attempting to do
do_div(int, unsigned long long);
which is royally screwed up. Switched it to plain old divide.
