2012-01-09jffs2: fix up error handling for insert_inode_lockedEric Sandeen1-1/+0
after 250df6ed274d767da844a5d9f05720b804240197 (fs: protect inode->i_state with inode->i_lock), insert_inode_locked() no longer returns the inode with I_NEW set on failure. However, the error handler still calls unlock_new_inode() on failure, which does a WARN_ON if I_NEW is not set, so any failure spews a lot of warnings. We can just drop the unlock_new_inode() if insert_inode_locked() fails here.

2011-10-19jffs2: implement mount option parsing and compression overridingAndres Salomon1-1/+1
Currently jffs2 has compile-time constants (and .config options) controlling whether or not the various compression/decompression drivers are built in and enabled. This is fine for embedded systems, but it clashes with distribution kernels. Distro kernels tend to turn on everything; this causes OpenFirmware to fall over, as it understands ZLIB-compressed inodes. Booting a kernel that has LZO compression enabled, writing to the boot partition, and then rebooting causes OFW to fail to read the kernel from the filesystem. This is because LZO compression has priority when writing new data to jffs2, if LZO is enabled. This patch adds mount option parsing, and a single supported option ("compr=none"). This adds the flexibility of being able to specify which compressor overrides on a per-superblock basis. For now, we can simply disable compression; additional flexibility coming soon. v2: kill some printks, and implement show_options as suggested by Artem Bityutskiy.

Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or anything else, so that the filesystem can track internally if it needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not. This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet. I plan to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid tree interdependencies. Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block. That has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.

2010-08-10check ATTR_SIZE contraints in inode_change_okChristoph Hellwig1-2/+2
Make sure we check the truncate constraints early on in ->setattr by adding those checks to inode_change_ok. Also clean up and document inode_change_ok to make this obvious. As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error. This simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize almost everywhere. Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious. Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an audit for its removal anyway. Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.

2007-10-20[JFFS2] Tidy up fix for ACL/permissions problem.KaiGai Kohei1-15/+6
[In commit 9ed437c50d89eabae763dd422579f73fdebf288d we fixed a problem with standard permissions on newly-created inodes, when POSIX ACLs are enabled. This cleans it up...] The attached patch separate jffs2_init_acl() into two parts. The one is jffs2_init_acl_pre() called from jffs2_new_inode(). It compute ACL oriented inode->i_mode bits, and allocate in-memory ACL objects associated with the new inode just before when inode meta infomation is written to the medium. The other is jffs2_init_acl_post() called from jffs2_symlink(), jffs2_mkdir(), jffs2_mknod() and jffs2_do_create(). It actually writes in-memory ACL objects into the medium next to the success of writing meta-information. In the current implementation, we have to write a same inode meta infomation twice when inode->i_mode is updated by the default ACL. However, we can avoid the behavior by putting an updated i_mode before it is written at first, as jffs2_init_acl_pre() doing.

I've bisected the deadlock when many small appends are done on jffs2 down to this commit: commit 6fe6900e1e5b6fa9e5c59aa5061f244fe3f467e2 Author: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Date: Sun May 6 14:49:04 2007 -0700 mm: make read_cache_page synchronous Ensure pages are uptodate after returning from read_cache_page, which allows us to cut out most of the filesystem-internal PageUptodate calls. I didn't have a great look down the call chains, but this appears to fixes 7 possible use-before uptodate in hfs, 2 in hfsplus, 1 in jfs, a few in ecryptfs, 1 in jffs2, and a possible cleared data overwritten with readpage in block2mtd. All depending on whether the filler is async and/or can return with a !uptodate page. It introduced a wait to read_cache_page, as well as a read_cache_page_async function equivalent to the old read_cache_page without any callers. Switching jffs2_gc_fetch_page to read_cache_page_async for the old behavior makes the deadlocks go away, but maybe reintroduces the use-before-uptodate problem?

Device node major/minor numbers are just stored in the payload of a single data node. Just extend that to 4 bytes and use new_encode_dev() for it. We only use the 4-byte format if we _need_ to, if !old_valid_dev(foo). This preserves backwards compatibility with older code as much as possible. If we do make devices with major or minor numbers above 255, and then mount the file system with the old code, it'll just read the first two bytes and get the numbers wrong. If it comes to garbage-collect it, it'll then write back those wrong numbers. But that's about the best we can expect. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

This attached patches provide xattr support including POSIX-ACL and SELinux support on JFFS2 (version.5). There are some significant differences from previous version posted at last December. The biggest change is addition of EBS(Erase Block Summary) support. Currently, both kernel and usermode utility (sumtool) can recognize xattr nodes which have JFFS2_NODETYPE_XATTR/_XREF nodetype. In addition, some bugs are fixed. - A potential race condition was fixed. - Unexpected fail when updating a xattr by same name/value pair was fixed. - A bug when removing xattr name/value pair was fixed. The fundamental structures (such as using two new nodetypes and exclusion mechanism by rwsem) are unchanged. But most of implementation were reviewed and updated if necessary. Espacially, we had to change several internal implementations related to load_xattr_datum() to avoid a potential race condition.
