I started hitting warnings when running xfstest 68 in a loop because there
were EM's that were not lined up properly with the physical extents. This
is ok, if we do something like punch a hole or write to a preallocated space
or something like that we can have an EM that doesn't cover the entire
physical extent. So fix the tree logging stuff to cope with this case so we
don't just commit the transaction. With this patch I no longer see the
warnings from the tree logging code. Thanks,

Call btrfs_abort_transaction as early as possible when an error
condition is detected, that way the line number reported is useful

The macro btrfs_abort_transaction() can get the line number of the code
where the problem happens, so we should invoke it in the place that the
error occurs, or we will lose the line number.

Change de_thread() to use KILLABLE rather than UNINTERRUPTIBLE while
waiting for other threads. The only complication is that we should
clear ->group_exit_task and ->notify_count before we return, and we
should do this under tasklist_lock. -EAGAIN is used to match the
initial signal_group_exit() check/return, it doesn't really matter.
This fixes the (unlikely) race with coredump. de_thread() checks
signal_group_exit() before it starts to kill the subthreads, but this
can't help if another CLONE_VM (but non CLONE_THREAD) task starts the
coredumping after de_thread() unlocks ->siglock. In this case the
killed sub-thread can block in exit_mm() waiting for coredump_finish(),
execing thread waits for that sub-thead, and the coredumping thread
waits for execing thread. Deadlock.

kernel_sendmsg() is less likely to return -ENOSPC and it might be
a bug to do so. However, in the past there might have been cases
where a -ENOSPC was returned from a low level driver.
Add a WARN_ON_ONCE() to ensure that it is safe to assume that -ENOSPC
is no longer returned. This -ENOSPC specific handling will be removed
once we are sure it is no longer returned.

proc_get_inode() obtains the inode via a call to iget_locked().
iget_locked() calls alloc_inode() which will call proc_alloc_inode() which
clears proc_inode.fd, so there is no need to clear this field in
proc_get_inode().
If iget_locked() instead found the inode via find_inode_fast(), that inode
will not have I_NEW set so this change has no effect.

Some coredump handlers want to create a core file in a way compatible with
standard behavior. Standard behavior with fs.suid_dumpable = 2 is to
create core file with uid=gid=0. However, there was no way for coredump
handler to know that the process being dumped was suid'ed.
This patch adds the new %d specifier for format_corename() which simply
reports __get_dumpable(mm->flags), this is compatible with
/proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable we already have.

Maintain an index of directory inodes by starting cluster, so that
fat_get_parent() can return the proper cached inode rather than inventing
one that cannot be traced back to the filesystem root.
Add a new msdos/vfat binary mount option "nfs" so that FAT filesystems
that are _not_ exported via NFS are not saddled with maintenance of an
index they will never use.
Finally, simplify NFS file handle generation and lookups. An
ext2-congruent implementation is adequate for FAT needs.

Under memory pressure, the system may evict dentries from cache. When the
FAT driver receives a NFS request involving an evicted dentry, it is
unable to reconnect it to the filesystem root. This causes the request to
fail, often with ENOENT.
This is partially due to ineffectiveness of the current FAT NFS
implementation, and partially due to an unimplemented fh_to_parent method.
The latter can cause file accesses to fail on shares exported with
subtree_check.
This patch set provides the FAT driver with the ability to
reconnect dentries. NFS file handle generation and lookups are simplified
and made congruent with ext2.
Testing has involved a memory-starved virtual machine running 3.5-rc5 that
exports a ~2 GB vfat filesystem containing a kernel tree (~770 MB, ~40000
files, 9 levels). Both 'cp -r' and 'ls -lR' operations were performed
from a client, some overlapping, some consecutive. Exports with
'subtree_check' and 'no_subtree_check' have been tested.
Note that while this patch set improves FAT's NFS support, it does not
eliminate ESTALE errors completely.
The following should be considered for NFS clients who are sensitive to ESTALE:
* Mounting with lookupcache=none
Unfortunately this can degrade performance severely, particularly for deep
filesystems.
* Incorporating VFS patches to retry ESTALE failures on the client-side,
such as https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/29/381
* Handling ESTALE errors in client application code
This patch:
Move NFS-related code into its own C file. No functional changes.

BUG #1) All places where we call ext4_flush_completed_IO are broken
because buffered io and DIO/AIO goes through three stages
1) submitted io,
2) completed io (in i_completed_io_list) conversion pended
3) finished io (conversion done)
And by calling ext4_flush_completed_IO we will flush only
requests which were in (2) stage, which is wrong because:
1) punch_hole and truncate _must_ wait for all outstanding unwritten io
regardless to it's state.
2) fsync and nolock_dio_read should also wait because there is
a time window between end_page_writeback() and ext4_add_complete_io()
As result integrity fsync is broken in case of buffered write
to fallocated region:
fsync blkdev_completion
->filemap_write_and_wait_range
->ext4_end_bio
->end_page_writeback
<-- filemap_write_and_wait_range return
->ext4_flush_completed_IO
sees empty i_completed_io_list but pended
conversion still exist
->ext4_add_complete_io
BUG #2) Race window becomes wider due to the 'ext4: completed_io
locking cleanup V4' patch series
This patch make following changes:
1) ext4_flush_completed_io() now first try to flush completed io and when
wait for any outstanding unwritten io via ext4_unwritten_wait()
2) Rename function to more appropriate name.
3) Assert that all callers of ext4_flush_unwritten_io should hold i_mutex to
prevent endless wait

Hi,
the patch si simple, but it has user visible impact and I'm not quite sure how
to resolve it.
In short, $subj says it, chattr -C supports it and we want to use it.
The conditions that acutally allow to change the NOCOW flag are clear. What if
I try to set the flag on a file that is not empty? Options:
1) whole ioctl will fail, EINVAL
2.1) ioctl will succeed, the NOCOW flag will be silently removed, but the file
will stay COW-ed and checksummed
2.2) ioctl will succeed, flag will not be removed and a syslog message will
warn that the COW flag has not been changed
2.2.1) dtto, no syslog message
Man page of chattr states that
"If it is set on a file which already has data blocks, it is undefined when
the blocks assigned to the file will be fully stable."
Yes, it's undefined and with current implementation it'll never happen. So from
this end, the user cannot expect anything. I'm trying to find a reasonable
behaviour, so that a command like 'chattr -R -aijS +C' to tweak a broad set of
flags in a deep directory does not fail unnecessarily and does not pollute the
log.
My personal preference is 2.2.1, but my dev's oppinion is skewed, not counting
the fact that I know the code and otherwise would look there before consulting
the documentation.
The patch implements 2.2.1.

It's safe to turn off checksums for a zero sized file.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/18030
"We cannot switch on NODATASUM for a file that already has extents that
are checksummed. The invariant here is that either all the extents or
none are checksummed.
Theoretically it's possible to add/remove all checksums from a given
file, but it's a potentially longtime operation, the file has to be in
some intermediate state where the checksums partially exist but have to
be ignored (for the csum->nocsum) until the file is fully converted,
this brings more special cases to extent handling, it has to survive
power failure and remain consistent, and probably needs to be restarted
after next mount."

I saw the warning in btrfs_drop_extent_cache where our end is less than our
start while running xfstests 68 in a loop. This is because we
unconditionally do drop_end = min(end, extent_end) in
__btrfs_drop_extents(), even though we may not have found an extent in the
range we were looking to drop. So keep track of wether or not we found
something, and if we didn't just use our end. Thanks,

We do not need to do anything special to freeze or unfreeze, it's all taken
care of by the generic work, and what we currently have is wrong anyway
since we shouldn't be returnning to userspace with mutexes held anyway.

The btree inode has it's own write cache pages so we can remove this write
cache pages hook as it's not used. Thanks,

We can race when checking wether PagePrivate is set on a page and we
actually have an eb saved in the pages private pointer. We could have
easily written out this page and released it in the time that we did the
pagevec lookup and actually got around to looking at this page. So use
mapping->private_lock to ensure we get a consistent view of the
page->private pointer. This is inline with the alloc and releasepage paths
which use private_lock when manipulating page->private. Thanks,

Dave Sterba pointed out a sleeping while atomic bug while doing fsync. This
is because I'm an idiot and didn't realize that rwlock's were spin locks, so
we've been holding this thing while doing allocations and such which is not
good. This patch fixes this by dropping the write lock before we do
anything heavy and re-acquire it when it is done. We also need to take a
ref on the em's in case their corresponding pages are evicted and mark them
as being logged so that releasepage does not remove them and doesn't remove
them from our local list. Thanks,

So we start our freeze, somebody comes in and does an fsync() on a file
where we have to commit a transaction for whatever reason, and we will
deadlock because the freeze is waiting on FS_FREEZE people to stop writing
to the file system, but the transaction is waiting for its free space inodes
to be written out, which are in turn waiting on sb_start_intwrite while
trying to write the file extents. To fix this we'll just skip the
sb_start_intwrite() if we TRANS_JOIN_NOLOCK since we're being waited on by a
transaction commit so we're safe wrt to freeze and this will keep us from
deadlocking. Thanks,
