* ext3: add an option to control error handling on file dataHidehiro Kawai2008-10-201-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 a ext3 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.

* vfs: Use const for kernel parser tableSteven Whitehouse2008-10-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble. This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm since then.

| | | | | | | | | | | * new helper: vfs_quota_on_path(); equivalent of vfs_quota_on() sans the pathname resolution. * callers of vfs_quota_on() that do their own pathname resolution and checks based on it are switched to vfs_quota_on_path(); that way we avoid the races. * reiserfs leaked dentry/vfsmount references on several failure exits.

* ext3: correct mount option parsing to detect when quota options can be changedJan Kara2008-07-251-7/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We should not allow user to change quota mount options when quota is just suspended. I would make mount options and internal quota state inconsistent. Also we should not allow user to change quota format when quota is turned on. On the other hand we can just silently ignore when some option is set to the value it already has (mount does this on remount).

Together with the other patches of this series - it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on <dentry,vfsmount> pairs - it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed - it reduces the overall code size: without patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux with patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux This patch: Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

* ext3: support large blocksize up to PAGESIZETakashi Sato2007-10-181-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch set supports large block size(>4k, <=64k) in ext3 just enlarging the block size limit. But it is NOT possible to have 64kB blocksize on ext3 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] ext3: enlarge blocksize - Allow blocksize up to pagesize [2/2] ext3: 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 block size ext3, and able to handle empty directory block.

* fix inode_table test in ext234_check_descriptorsEric Sandeen2007-07-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 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.

* slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flagChristoph Lameter2007-05-071-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [PATCH] fix umask when noACL kernel meets extN tuned for ACLsHugh Dickins2007-02-111-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [PATCH] ext3: refuse ro to rw remount of fs with orphan inodesEric Sandeen2007-02-111-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Cc: "Stephen C.

* [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernelDavid Howells2006-12-081-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This facility provides three entry points: ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32 ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64 These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data: int do_something(long q) { ...; y = ilog2(x) ...; } Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values: unsigned n = ilog2(27); When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error: initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as unsigned. When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.
