2010-10-23nilfs2: get rid of bdi from nilfs objectRyusuke Konishi1-4/+0
Nilfs now can use sb->s_bdi to get backing_dev_info, so we use it instead of ns_bdi on the nilfs object and remove ns_bdi. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-10-23nilfs2: get rid of back pointer to writable sb instanceRyusuke Konishi1-1/+0
Nilfs object holds a back pointer to a writable super block instance in nilfs->ns_writer, and this became eliminable since sb is now made per device and all inodes have a valid pointer to it. This deletes the ns_writer pointer and a reader/writer semaphore protecting it. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-10-23nilfs2: see state of root dentry for mount check of snapshotsRyusuke Konishi1-21/+0
After applied the patch that unified sb instances, root dentry of snapshots can be left in dcache even after their trees are unmounted. The orphan root dentry/inode keeps a root object, and this causes false positive of nilfs_checkpoint_is_mounted function. This resolves the issue by having nilfs_checkpoint_is_mounted test whether the root dentry is busy or not. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-10-23nilfs2: use iget for all metadata filesRyusuke Konishi1-38/+20

2010-10-23nilfs2: get rid of GCDAT inodeRyusuke Konishi1-12/+1
This applies prepared rollback function and redirect function of metadata file to DAT file, and eliminates GCDAT inode. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-10-23nilfs2: simplify life cycle management of nilfs objectRyusuke Konishi1-70/+5
This stops pre-allocating nilfs object in nilfs_get_sb routine, and stops managing its life cycle by reference counting. nilfs_find_or_create_nilfs() function, nilfs->ns_mount_mutex, nilfs_objects list, and the reference counter will be removed through the simplification. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-10-23nilfs2: do not allocate multiple super block instances for a deviceRyusuke Konishi1-88/+1
This stops allocating multiple super block instances for a device. All snapshots and a current mode mount (i.e. latest tree) will be controlled with nilfs_root objects that are kept within an sb instance. nilfs_get_sb() is rewritten so that it always has a root object for the latest tree and snapshots make additional root objects. The root dentry of the latest tree is binded to sb->s_root even if it isn't attached on a directory. Root dentries of snapshots or the latest tree are binded to mnt->mnt_root on which they are mounted. With this patch, nilfs_find_sbinfo() function, nilfs->ns_supers list, and nilfs->ns_current back pointer, are deleted. In addition, init_nilfs() and load_nilfs() are simplified since they will be called once for a device, not repeatedly called for mount points.

2010-10-23nilfs2: use checkpoint tree for mount check of snapshotsRyusuke Konishi1-17/+11
This rewrites nilfs_checkpoint_is_mounted() function so that it decides whether a checkpoint is mounted by whether the corresponding root object is found in checkpoint tree. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-10-23nilfs2: add checkpoint tree to nilfs objectRyusuke Konishi1-0/+92
To hold multiple versions of a filesystem in one sb instance, a new on-memory structure is necessary to handle one or more checkpoints. This adds a red-black tree of checkpoints to nilfs object, and adds lookup and create functions for them. Each checkpoint is represented by "nilfs_root" structure, and this structure has rb_node to configure the rb-tree. The nilfs_root object is identified with a checkpoint number. For each snapshot, a nilfs_root object is allocated and the checkpoint number of snapshot is assigned to it. For a regular mount (i.e. current mode mount), NILFS_CPTREE_CURRENT_CNO constant is assigned to the corresponding nilfs_root object. Each nilfs_root object has an ifile inode and some counters. These items will displace those of nilfs_sb_info structure in successive patches. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-10-23nilfs2: remove own inode hash used for GCRyusuke Konishi1-7/+1
This uses inode hash function that vfs provides instead of the own hash table for caching gc inodes. This finally removes the own inode hash from nilfs. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-10-23nilfs2: accept future revisionsRyusuke Konishi1-2/+2
Compatibility of nilfs partitions is now managed with three feature sets. This changes old compatibility check with revision number so that it can accept future revisions. Note that we can stop support of experimental versions of nilfs that doesn't know the feature sets by incrementing NILFS_CURRENT_REV. We don't have to do it soon, but it would be a possible option whenever the need arises. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

2010-09-16block: remove BLKDEV_IFL_WAITChristoph Hellwig1-2/+2
All the blkdev_issue_* helpers can only sanely be used for synchronous caller. To issue cache flushes or barriers asynchronously the caller needs to set up a bio by itself with a completion callback to move the asynchronous state machine ahead. So drop the BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT flag that is always specified when calling blkdev_issue_* and also remove the now unused flags argument to blkdev_issue_flush and blkdev_issue_zeroout. For blkdev_issue_discard we need to keep it for the secure discard flag, which gains a more descriptive name and loses the bitops vs flag confusion.

2010-09-10nilfs2: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usageChristoph Hellwig1-5/+2

2010-08-30nilfs2: fix leak of shadow dat inode in error path of load_nilfsRyusuke Konishi1-0/+1
If load_nilfs() gets an error while doing recovery, it will fail to free the shadow inode of dat (nilfs->ns_gc_dat). This fixes the leak issue. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-08-19nilfs2: wait for discard to finishRyusuke Konishi1-1/+3
nilfs_discard_segment() doesn't wait for completion of discard requests. This specifies BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT flag when calling blkdev_issue_discard() in order to fix the sync failure.

2010-08-16nilfs2: fix false warning saying one of two super blocks is brokenRyusuke Konishi1-2/+2
After applying commit b2ac86e1, the following message got appeared after unclean shutdown: > NILFS warning: broken superblock. using spare superblock. This turns out to be a false message due to the change which updates two super blocks alternately. The secondary super block now can be selected if it's newer than the primary one. This kills the false warning by suppressing it if another super block is not actually broken. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-07-25nilfs2: reject filesystem with unsupported block sizeRyusuke Konishi1-1/+8
This inserts sanity check that refuses to mount a filesystem with unsupported block size. Previously, kernel code of nilfs was looking only limitation of devices though mkfs.nilfs2 limits the range of block sizes; there was no check that prevents rec_len overflow with larger block sizes. With this change, block sizes larger than 64KB or smaller than 1KB will get rejected explicitly by kernel. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-07-23nilfs2: reject incompatible filesystemRyusuke Konishi1-0/+20
This forces nilfs to check compatibility of feature flags so as to reject a filesystem with unknown features when it mounts or remounts the filesystem. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-07-23nilfs2: do not update log cursor for small changeRyusuke Konishi1-0/+11
Super blocks of nilfs are periodically overwritten in order to record the recent log position. This shortens recovery time after unclean unmount, but the current implementation performs the update even for a few blocks of change. If the filesystem gets small changes slowly and continually, super blocks may be updated excessively. This moderates the issue by skipping update of log cursor if it does not cross a segment boundary. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-07-23nilfs2: implement fallback for super root searchRyusuke Konishi1-2/+50
Although nilfs redundantly uses two super blocks and each may point to different position on log, the current version of nilfs does not try fallback to the spare super block when it doesn't find any valid log at the position that the primary super block points to. This has been a cause of mount failures due to write order reversals on barrier less block devices. This inserts fallback code in error path of nilfs_search_super_root routine to resolve the mount failure problem. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-07-23nilfs2: separate setup of log cursor from init_nilfsRyusuke Konishi1-13/+32
This separates a setup routine of log cursor from init_nilfs(). The routine, nilfs_store_log_cursor, reads the last position of the log containing a super root, and initializes relevant state on the nilfs object. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-07-23nilfs2: sync super blocks in turnsJiro SEKIBA1-2/+2
This will sync super blocks in turns instead of syncing duplicate super blocks at the time. This will help searching valid super root when super block is written into disk before log is written, which is happen when barrier-less block devices are unmounted uncleanly. In the situation, old super block likely points to valid log. This patch introduces ns_sbwcount member to the nilfs object and adds nilfs_sb_will_flip() function; ns_sbwcount counts how many times super blocks write back to the disk. And, nilfs_sb_will_flip() decides whether flipping required or not based on the count of ns_sbwcount to sync super blocks asymmetrically. The following functions are also changed: - nilfs_prepare_super(): flips super blocks according to the argument. The argument is calculated by nilfs_sb_will_flip() function. - nilfs_cleanup_super(): sets "clean" flag to both super blocks if they point to the same checkpoint. To update both of super block information, caller of nilfs_commit_super must set the information on both super blocks.

2010-07-23nilfs2: refactor recovery logic routinesRyusuke Konishi1-5/+4
Most functions in recovery code take an argument of a super block instance or a nilfs_sb_info struct for convenience sake. This replaces them aggressively with a nilfs object by applying __bread and __breadahead against routines using sb_bread and sb_breadahead.

2010-05-10nilfs2: use checkpoint number instead of timestamp to select super blockRyusuke Konishi1-3/+7
Nilfs maintains two super blocks, and selects the new one on mount time if they both have valid checksums and their timestamps differ. However, this has potential for mis-selection since the system clock may be rewinded and the resolution of the timestamps is not high. Usually this doesn't become an issue because both super blocks are updated at the same time when the file system is unmounted. Even if the file system wasn't unmounted cleanly, the roll-forward recovery will find the proper log which stores the latest super root. Thus, the issue can appear only if update of one super block fails and the clock happens to be rewinded. This fixes the issue by using checkpoint numbers instead of timestamps to pick the super block storing the location of the latest log. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

2009-11-20nilfs2: add norecovery mount optionRyusuke Konishi1-2/+18
This adds "norecovery" mount option which disables temporal write access to read-only mounts or snapshots during mount/recovery. Without this option, write access will be even performed for those types of mounts; the temporal write access is needed to mount root file system read-only after an unclean shutdown.

2009-11-20nilfs2: move recovery completion into load_nilfs functionRyusuke Konishi1-22/+48
Although mount recovery of nilfs is integrated in load_nilfs() procedure, the completion of recovery was isolated from the procedure and performed at the end of the fill_super routine. This was somewhat confusing since the recovery is needed for the nilfs object, not for a super block instance. To resolve the inconsistency, this will integrate the recovery completion into load_nilfs(). Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-11-20nilfs2: simplify nilfs_sufile_get_ncleansegs functionRyusuke Konishi1-15/+8

2009-06-11nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount functionRyusuke Konishi1-6/+7
nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance. Even though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or remount, the mount state was not properly protected in nilfs_remount(). Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem; nilfs_get_sb() holds: 1. bdev->bd_mount_sem 2. sb->s_umount (sget acquires) and nilfs_remount() holds: 1. sb->s_umount (locked by the caller in vfs) 2. bdev->bd_mount_sem To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount state protection in nilfs_remount(). With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and the lock order reversal will be resolved. And the new rw-semaphore, nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the modification from nilfs_error function.

2009-06-11nilfs2: simplify remaining sget() useRyusuke Konishi1-0/+50
This simplifies the test function passed on the remaining sget() callsite in nilfs. Instead of checking mount type (i.e. ro-mount/rw-mount/snapshot mount) in the test function passed to sget(), this patch first looks up the nilfs_sb_info struct which the given mount type matches, and then acquires the super block instance holding the nilfs_sb_info.

2009-06-11nilfs2: get rid of sget use for acquiring nilfs objectRyusuke Konishi1-3/+54
This will change the way to obtain nilfs object in nilfs_get_sb() function. Previously, a preliminary sget() call was performed, and the nilfs object was acquired from a super block instance found by the sget() call. This patch, instead, instroduces a new dedicated function find_or_create_nilfs(); as the name implies, the function finds an existent nilfs object from a global list or creates a new one if no object is found on the device.
