<content type='text'>
We use jbd_debug() in some places in ext4. It seems a bit strange to use
jbd2 debugging output function for ext4 code. Also these days
ext4_debug() uses dynamic printk so each debug message can be enabled /
disabled on its own so the time when it made some sense to have these
combined (to allow easier common selecting of messages to report) has
passed. Just convert all jbd_debug() uses in ext4 to ext4_debug().

Now, indirect truncate process didn't handle error. To solve this issue
maybe simply add check handle is abort in '__ext4_journal_ensure_credits'
is enough, and i also think this is necessary.

<title>ext4: Support for checksumming from journal triggers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:188c299e2a26cc33747187f87c9e044dfd85a782</id>
<content type='text'>
JBD2 layer support triggers which are called when journaling layer moves
buffer to a certain state. We can use the frozen trigger, which gets
called when buffer data is frozen and about to be written out to the
journal, to compute block checksums for some buffer types (similarly as
does ocfs2). This avoids unnecessary repeated recomputation of the
checksum (at the cost of larger window where memory corruption won't be
caught by checksumming) and is even necessary when there are
unsynchronized updaters of the checksummed data.

So add superblock and journal trigger type arguments to
ext4_journal_get_write_access() and ext4_journal_get_create_access() so
that frozen triggers can be set accordingly. Also add inode argument to
ext4_walk_page_buffers() and all the callbacks used with that function
for the same purpose. This patch is mostly only a change of prototype of
the above mentioned functions and a few small helpers. Real checksumming
will come later.

<title>ext4: fix WARN_ON_ONCE(!buffer_uptodate) after an error writing the superblock</title>

<id>urn:sha1:558d6450c7755aa005d89021204b6cdcae5e848f</id>
<content type='text'>
If a writeback of the superblock fails with an I/O error, the buffer
is marked not uptodate.  However, this can cause a WARN_ON to trigger
when we attempt to write superblock a second time.  (Which might
succeed this time, for cerrtain types of block devices such as iSCSI
devices over a flaky network.)

Try to detect this case in flush_stashed_error_work(), and also change
__ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() so we always set the uptodate flag, not
just in the nojournal case.

Before this commit, this problem can be repliciated via:

1. dmsetup  create dust1 --table  '0 2097152 dust /dev/sdc 0 4096'
2. mount  /dev/mapper/dust1  /home/test
3. dmsetup message dust1 0 addbadblock 0 10
4. cd /home/test
5. echo "XXXXXXX" &gt; t

After a few seconds, we got following warning:

<content type='text'>
Protect all superblock modifications (including checksum computation)
with a superblock buffer lock. That way we are sure computed checksum
matches current superblock contents (a mismatch could cause checksum
failures in nojournal mode or if an unjournalled superblock update races
with a journalled one). Also we avoid modifying superblock contents
while it is being written out (which can cause DIF/DIX failures if we
are running in nojournal mode).

<content type='text'>
This patch adds fast commit recovery path support for Ext4 file
system. We add several helper functions that are similar in spirit to
e2fsprogs journal recovery path handlers. Example of such functions
include - a simple block allocator, idempotent block bitmap update
function etc. Using these routines and the fast commit log in the fast
commit area, the recovery path (ext4_fc_replay()) performs fast commit
log recovery.

<id>urn:sha1:bc71726c725767205757821df364acff87f92ac5</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a risk of filesystem inconsistency if we failed to async write
back metadata buffer in the background. Because of current buffer's end
io procedure is handled by end_buffer_async_write() in the block layer,
and it only clear the buffer's uptodate flag and mark the write_io_error
flag, so ext4 cannot detect such failure immediately. In most cases of
getting metadata buffer (e.g. ext4_read_inode_bitmap()), although the
buffer's data is actually uptodate, it may still read data from disk
because the buffer's uptodate flag has been cleared. Finally, it may
lead to on-disk filesystem inconsistency if reading old data from the
disk successfully and write them out again.

This patch detect bdev mapping-&gt;wb_err when getting journal's write
access and mark the filesystem error if bdev's mapping-&gt;wb_err was
increased, this could prevent further writing and potential
inconsistency.
