* nilfs2: avoid overflowing segment numbers in nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments()Xi Wang2012-02-081-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | nsegs is read from userspace. Limit its value and avoid overflowing nsegs * sizeof(__u64) in the subsequent call to memdup_user(). This patch complements 481fe17e973fb9 ("nilfs2: potential integer overflow in nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments()").

* nilfs2: potential integer overflow in nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments()Haogang Chen2011-12-201-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a potential integer overflow in nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments(). When a large argv[n].v_nmembs is passed from the userspace, the subsequent call to vmalloc() will allocate a buffer smaller than expected, which leads to out-of-bound access in nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() and lfs_clean_segments(). The following check does not prevent the overflow because nsegs is also controlled by the userspace and could be very large. if (argv[n].v_nmembs > nsegs * nilfs->ns_blocks_per_segment) goto out_free; This patch clamps argv[n].v_nmembs to UINT_MAX / argv[n].v_size, and returns -EINVAL when overflow.

* nilfs2: add ioctl which limits range of segment to be allocatedRyusuke Konishi2011-05-101-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new ioctl command which limits range of segment to be allocated. This is intended to gather data whithin a range of the partition before shrinking the filesystem, or to control new log location for some purpose. If a range is specified by the ioctl, segment allocator of nilfs tries to allocate new segments from the range unless no free segments are available there.

* nilfs2: get rid of nilfs_sb_info structureRyusuke Konishi2011-03-091-12/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This directly uses sb->s_fs_info to keep a nilfs filesystem object and fully removes the intermediate nilfs_sb_info structure. With this change, the hierarchy of on-memory structures of nilfs will be simplified as follows: Before: super_block -> nilfs_sb_info -> the_nilfs -> cptree --+-> nilfs_root (current file system) +-> nilfs_root (snapshot A) +-> nilfs_root (snapshot B) : -> nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure) After: super_block -> the_nilfs -> cptree --+-> nilfs_root (current file system) +-> nilfs_root (snapshot A) +-> nilfs_root (snapshot B) : -> nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure) The reason why we didn't design so from the beginning is because the initial shape also differed from the above. The early hierachy was composed of "per-mount-point" super_block -> nilfs_sb_info pairs and a shared nilfs object. On the kernel 2.6.37, it was changed to the current shape in order to unify super block instances into one per device, and this cleanup became applicable as the result.

* nilfs2: optimize rec_len functionsRyusuke Konishi2011-03-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is a similar change to those in ext2/ext3 codebase (commit 40a063f6691ce937 and a4ae3094869f18e2, respectively). The addition of 64k block capability in the rec_len_from_disk and rec_len_to_disk functions added a bit of math overhead which slows down file create workloads needlessly when the architecture cannot even support 64k blocks. This will cut the corner. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for the standard attributes set via chattr and read via lsattr. These attributes are already in the flags value in the nilfs2 inode, but currently we don't have any ioctl commands that expose them to the userland. Collaterally, this adds the FS_IOC_GETVERSION ioctl for getting i_generation, which allows users to list the file's generation number with "lsattr -v".

* nilfs2: fix regression of garbage collection ioctlRyusuke Konishi2010-12-161-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On 2.6.37-rc1, garbage collection ioctl of nilfs was broken due to the commit 263d90cefc7d82a0 ("nilfs2: remove own inode hash used for GC"), and leading to filesystem corruption. The patch doesn't queue gc-inodes for log writer if they are reused through the vfs inode cache. Here, gc-inode is the inode which buffers blocks to be relocated on GC. That patch queues gc-inodes in nilfs_init_gcinode() function, but this function is not called when they don't have I_NEW flag. Thus, some of live blocks are wrongly overrode without being moved to new logs. This resolves the problem by moving the gc-inode queueing to an outer function to ensure it's done right.

* | include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h 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.

* nilfs2: fix kernel oops in error case of nilfs_ioctl_move_blocksRyusuke Konishi2009-11-081-17/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a kernel oops reported by Markus Trippelsdorf in the email titled "[NILFS users] kernel Oops while running nilfs_cleanerd". The oops was caused by a bug of error path in nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() function, which was inlined in nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments(). nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks checks duplication of blocks which will be moved in garbage collection. But, the check should have be done within nilfs_ioctl_move_inode_block() to prevent list corruption among buffers storing the target blocks. To fix the kernel oops, this moves forward the duplication check before the list insertion. I also tested this for stable trees [2.6.30, 2.6.31].

* nilfs2: shorten freeze period due to GC in write operation v3Jiro SEKIBA2009-09-141-7/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a re-revised patch to shorten freeze period. This version include a fix of the bug Konishi-san mentioned last time. When GC is runnning, GC moves live block to difference segments. Copying live blocks into memory is done in a transaction, however it is not necessarily to be in the transaction. This patch will get the nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() out from transaction lock and put it before the transaction. I ran sysbench fileio test against nilfs partition. I copied some DVD/CD images and created snapshot to create live blocks before starting the benchmark. Followings are summary of rc8 and rc8 w/ the patch of per-request statistics, which is min/max and avg. I ran each test three times and bellow is average of those numers. According to this benchmark result, average time is slightly degrated. However, worstcase (max) result is significantly improved.

* nilfs2: allow future expansion of metadata read out via get info ioctlRyusuke Konishi2009-06-101-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nilfs has some ioctl commands to read out metadata from meta data files: - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_CPINFO for checkpoint file, - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_SUINFO for segment usage file, and - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_VINFO for Disk Address Transalation (DAT) file, respectively. Every routine on these metadata files is implemented so that it allows future expansion of on-disk format. But, the above ioctl commands do not support expansion even though nilfs_argv structure can handle arbitrary size for data exchanged via ioctl. This allows future expansion of the following structures which give basic format of the "get information" ioctls: - struct nilfs_cpinfo - struct nilfs_suinfo - struct nilfs_vinfo So, this introduces forward compatility of such ioctl commands. In this patch, a sanity check in nilfs_ioctl_get_info() function is changed to accept larger data structure [1], and metadata read routines are rewritten so that they become compatible for larger structures; the routines will just ignore the remaining fields which the current version of nilfs doesn't know. [1] The ioctl function already has another upper limit (PAGE_SIZE against a structure, which appears in nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy function), and this will not cause security problem.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although some ioctls of nilfs2 exchange data in the form of indirectly referenced array, some of them lack size check on the array elements. This inserts the missing checks and rejects requests if data of ioctl does not have a valid format. We usually don't have to check size of structures that we associated with ioctl commands because the size is tested implicitly for identifying ioctl command; the checks this patch adds are for the cases where the implicit check is not applied.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nilfs ioctl had structures not having fixed sized types such as: struct nilfs_argv { void *v_base; size_t v_nmembs; size_t v_size; int v_index; int v_flags; }; Further, some of them are wrongly aligned: e.g. struct nilfs_cpmode { __u64 cm_cno; int cm_mode; }; The size of wrongly aligned structures varies depending on architectures, and it breaks the identity of ioctl commands, which leads to arch dependent errors. Previously, these are compensated by using compat_ioctl. This fixes these problems and allows removal of compat ioctl. Since this will change sizes of those structures, binary compatibility for the past utilities will once break; new utilities have to be used instead. However, it would be helpful to avoid platform dependent problems in the long term.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This resolves the following failure of nilfs2 cleaner daemon: nilfs_cleanerd[20670]: cannot clean segments: No such file or directory nilfs_cleanerd[20670]: shutdown When creating thousands of snapshots, the cleaner daemon had rarely died as above due to an error returned from the kernel code. After applying the recent patch which fixed memory allocation problems in ioctl (Message-Id: <20081215.155840.105124170.ryusuke@osrg.net>), the problem gets more frequent. It turned out to be a bug of nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy function and one of its callback routines to read out information of snapshots; if the nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy function divided a large read request into multiple requests, the second and later requests have failed since a restart position on snapshot meta data was not properly set forward. It's a deficiency of the callback interface that cannot pass the restart position among multiple requests. This patch fixes the issue by allowing nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy and snapshot read functions to exchange a position argument.

* nilfs2: avoid double error caused by nilfs_transaction_endRyusuke Konishi2009-04-071-24/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pekka Enberg pointed out that double error handlings found after nilfs_transaction_end() can be avoided by separating abort operation: OK, I don't understand this. The only way nilfs_transaction_end() can fail is if we have NILFS_TI_SYNC set and we fail to construct the segment. But why do we want to construct a segment if we don't commit? I guess what I'm asking is why don't we have a separate nilfs_transaction_abort() function that can't fail for the erroneous case to avoid this double error value tracking thing? This does the separation and renames nilfs_transaction_end() to nilfs_transaction_commit() for clarification. Since, some calls of these functions were used just for exclusion control against the segment constructor, they are replaced with semaphore operations.

* nilfs2: fix problems of memory allocation in ioctlRyusuke Konishi2009-04-071-12/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is another patch for fixing the following problems of a memory copy function in nilfs2 ioctl: (1) It tries to allocate 128KB size of memory even for small objects. (2) Though the function repeatedly tries large memory allocations while reducing the size, GFP_NOWAIT flag is not specified. This increases the possibility of system memory shortage. (3) During the retries of (2), verbose warnings are printed because _GFP_NOWARN flag is not used for the kmalloc calls. The first patch was still doing large allocations by kmalloc which are repeatedly tried while reducing the size. Andi Kleen told me that using copy_from_user for large memory is not good from the viewpoint of preempt latency: On Fri, 12 Dec 2008 21:24:11 +0100, Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> wrote: > > In the current interface, each data item is copied twice: one is to > > the allocated memory from user space (via copy_from_user), and another > > For such large copies it is better to use multiple smaller (e.g. 4K) > copy user, that gives better real time preempt latencies.

He also advised me that: On Sun, 14 Dec 2008 16:13:27 +0100, Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> wrote: > Better would be if you could go to PAGE_SIZE. order 0 allocations > are typically the fastest / least likely to stall. > > Also in this case it's a good idea to use __get_free_pages() > directly, kmalloc tends to be become less efficient at larger > sizes. For the function in question, the size of buffer memory can be reduced since the buffer is repeatedly used for a number of small objects. On the other hand, it may incur large preempt latencies for larger buffer because a copy_from_user (and a copy_to_user) was applied only once each cycle. With that, this revision uses the order 0 allocations with __get_free_pages() to fix the original problems.
