Convert the ext4_has_group_desc_csum predicate to look for a checksum
driver instead of the metadata_csum flag and change the bg checksum
calculation function to look for GDT_CSUM before taking the crc16
path.
Without this patch, if we mount with ^uninit_bg,^metadata_csum and
later metadata_csum gets turned on by accident, the block group
checksum functions will incorrectly assume that checksumming is
enabled (metadata_csum) but that crc16 should be used
(!s_chksum_driver). This is totally wrong, so fix the predicate
and the checksum formula selection.
(Granted, if the metadata_csum feature bit gets enabled on a live FS
then something underhanded is going on, but we could at least avoid
writing garbage into the on-disk fields.)

If there is a corrupted file system which has directory entries that
point at reserved, metadata inodes, prohibit them from being used by
treating them the same way we treat Boot Loader inodes --- that is,
mark them to be bad inodes. This prohibits them from being opened,
deleted, or modified via chmod, chown, utimes, etc.
In particular, this prevents a corrupted file system which has a
directory entry which points at the journal inode from being deleted
and its blocks released, after which point Much Hilarity Ensues.

Currently sysfs feature files uses ext4_attr_ops as the file operations
to show/store data. However the feature files is not supposed to contain
any data at all, the sole existence of the file means that the module
support the feature. Moreover, none of the sysfs feature attributes
actually register show/store functions so that would not be a problem.
However if a sysfs feature attribute register a show or store function
we might be in trouble because the kobject in this case is _not_ embedded
in the ext4_sb_info structure as ext4_attr_show/store expect.
So just to be safe, provide separate empty sysfs_ops to use in
ext4_feat_ktype. This might safe us from potential problems in the
future. As a bonus we can "store" something more descriptive than
nothing in the files, so let it contain "enabled" to make it clear that
the feature is really present in the module.

Currently there is no easy way to tell that the mounted file system
contains errors other than checking for log messages, or reading the
information directly from superblock.
This patch adds new sysfs entries:
errors_count (number of fs errors we encounter)
first_error_time (unix timestamp for the first error we see)
last_error_time (unix timestamp for the last error we see)
If the file system is not marked as containing errors then any of the
file will return 0. Otherwise it will contain valid information. More
details about the errors should as always be found in the logs.

We could have left percpu_counter_init() alone and added
percpu_counter_init_gfp(); however, the number of users isn't that
high and introducing _gfp variants to all percpu data structures would
be quite ugly, so let's just do the conversion. This is the one with

It turns out that there are some serious problems with the on-disk
format of journal checksum v2. The foremost is that the function to
calculate descriptor tag size returns sizes that are too big. This
causes alignment issues on some architectures and is compounded by the
fact that some parts of jbd2 use the structure size (incorrectly) to
determine the presence of a 64bit journal instead of checking the
feature flags.
Therefore, introduce journal checksum v3, which enlarges the
descriptor block tag format to allow for full 32-bit checksums of
journal blocks, fix the journal tag function to return the correct
sizes, and fix the jbd2 recovery code to use feature flags to
determine 64bitness.
Add a few function helpers so we don't have to open-code quite so
many pieces.
Switching to a 16-byte block size was found to increase journal size
overhead by a maximum of 0.1%, to convert a 32-bit journal with no
checksumming to a 32-bit journal with checksum v3 enabled.

The EXT4FS_DEBUG is a *very* developer specific #ifdef designed for
ext4 developers only. (You have to modify fs/ext4/ext4.h to enable
it.)
Rearrange how we initialize data structures to avoid calling
ext4_count_free_clusters() until the multiblock allocator has been
initialized.
This also allows us to only call ext4_count_free_clusters() once, and
simplifies the code somewhat.

Commit 007649375f6af2 ("ext4: initialize multi-block allocator before
checking block descriptors") causes the block group descriptor's count
of the number of free blocks to become inconsistent with the number of
free blocks in the allocation bitmap. This is a harmless form of fs
corruption, but it causes the kernel to potentially remount the file
system read-only, or to panic, depending on the file systems's error
behavior.
Thanks to Eric Whitney for his tireless work to reproduce and to find

Currently in ext4 there is quite a mess when it comes to naming
unwritten extents. Sometimes we call it uninitialized and sometimes we
refer to it as unwritten.
The right name for the extent which has been allocated but does not
contain any written data is _unwritten_. Other file systems are
using this name consistently, even the buffer head state refers to it as
unwritten. We need to fix this confusion in ext4.
This commit changes every reference to an uninitialized extent (meaning
allocated but unwritten) to unwritten extent. This includes comments,
function names and variable names. It even covers abbreviation of the
word uninitialized (such as uninit) and some misspellings.
This commit does not change any of the code paths at all. This has been
confirmed by comparing md5sums of the assembly code of each object file
after all the function names were stripped from it.

With EXT4FS_DEBUG ext4_count_free_clusters() will call
ext4_read_block_bitmap() without s_group_info initialized, so we need to
initialize multi-block allocator before.
And dependencies that must be solved, to allow this:
- multi-block allocator needs in group descriptors
- need to install s_op before initializing multi-block allocator,
because in ext4_mb_init_backend() new inode is created.
- initialize number of group desc blocks (s_gdb_count) otherwise
number of clusters returned by ext4_free_clusters_after_init() is not correct.

Previously, the no-op "mount -o mount /dev/xxx" operation when the
file system is already mounted read-write causes an implied,
unconditional syncfs(). This seems pretty stupid, and it's certainly
documented or guaraunteed to do this, nor is it particularly useful,
except in the case where the file system was mounted rw and is getting
remounted read-only.
However, it's possible that there might be some file systems that are
actually depending on this behavior. In most file systems, it's
probably fine to only call sync_filesystem() when transitioning from
read-write to read-only, and there are some file systems where this is
not needed at all (for example, for a pseudo-filesystem or something
like romfs).

When the filesystem doesn't support extents (like in ext2/3
compatibility modes), there is no need to reserve any clusters. Space
estimates for writing are exact, hole punching doesn't need new
metadata, and there are no unwritten extents to convert.
This fixes a problem when filesystem still having some free space when
accessed with a native ext2/3 driver suddently reports ENOSPC when
accessed with ext4 driver.

Pull vfs pile 1 from Al Viro:
"Unfortunately, this merge window it'll have a be a lot of small piles -
my fault, actually, for not keeping #for-next in anything that would
resemble a sane shape ;-/
This pile: assorted fixes (the first 3 are -stable fodder, IMO) and
cleanups + %pd/%pD formats (dentry/file pathname, up to 4 last
components) + several long-standing patches from various folks.
There definitely will be a lot more (starting with Miklos'
check_submount_and_drop() series)"

Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user
context using a workqueue. This replaces opencoded and less efficient
code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO)
and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO.
The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires
a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the
direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating
with the filesystems.
Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these
completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara. I'm
not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global
workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion.
JK: Fixed ext4 part, dynamic allocation of the workqueue.

It's always been a hassle that if an external journal's
device number changes, the filesystem won't mount.
And since boot-time enumeration can change, device number
changes aren't unusual.
The current mechanism to update the journal location is by
passing in a mount option w/ a new devnum, but that's a hassle;
it's a manual approach, fixing things after the fact.
Adding a mount option, "-o journal_path=/dev/$DEVICE" would
help, since then we can do i.e.
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/$JOURNAL_LABEL ...
and it'll mount even if the devnum has changed, as shown here:
# losetup /dev/loop0 journalfile
# mke2fs -L mylabel-journal -O journal_dev /dev/loop0
# mkfs.ext4 -L mylabel -J device=/dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1
Change the journal device number:
# losetup -d /dev/loop0
# losetup /dev/loop1 journalfile
And today it will fail:
# mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
# dmesg | tail -n 1
[17343.240702] EXT4-fs (sdb1): error: couldn't read superblock of external journal
But with this new mount option, we can specify the new path:
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/loop1 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
#
(which does update the encoded device number, incidentally):
# umount /dev/sdb1
# dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdb1 | grep "Journal device"
dumpe2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Journal device: 0x0701
But best of all we can just always mount by journal-path, and
it'll always work:
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/mylabel-journal /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
#
So the journal_path option can be specified in fstab, and as long as
the disk is available somewhere, and findable by label (or by UUID),
we can mount.
