Add a new config option, CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23 which if enabled, will cause ext4 to be used for either ext2 or ext3 file system mounts when ext2 or ext3 is not enabled in the configuration. This allows minimalist kernel fanatics to drop to file system drivers from their compiled kernel with out losing functionality. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

The move_extent.moved_len is used to pass back the number of exchanged blocks count to user space. Currently the caller must clear this field; but we spend more code space checking for this requirement than simply zeroing the field ourselves, so let's just make life easier for everyone all around.

At the beginning of ext4_move_extent(), we call ext4_discard_preallocations() to discard inode PAs of orig and donor inodes. But in the following case, blocks can be double freed, so move ext4_discard_preallocations() to the end of ext4_move_extents(). 1. Discard inode PAs of orig and donor inodes with ext4_discard_preallocations() in ext4_move_extents(). orig : [ DATA1 ] donor: [ DATA2 ] 2. While data blocks are exchanging between orig and donor inodes, new inode PAs is created to orig by other process's block allocation. (Since there are semaphore gaps in ext4_move_extents().) And new inode PAs is used partially (2-1). 2-1 Create new inode PAs to orig inode orig : [ DATA1 | used PA1 | free PA1 ] donor: [ DATA2 ] 3. Donor inode which has old orig inode's blocks is deleted after EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT finished (3-1, 3-2). So the block bitmap corresponds to old orig inode's blocks are freed. 3-1 After EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT finished orig : [ DATA2 | free PA1 ] donor: [ DATA1 | used PA1 ] 3-2 Delete donor inode orig : [ DATA2 | free PA1 ] donor: [ FREE SPACE(DATA1) | FREE SPACE(used PA1) ] 4. The double-free of blocks is occurred, when close() is called to orig inode. Because ext4_discard_preallocations() for orig inode frees used PA1 and free PA1, though used PA1 is already freed in 3. 4-1 Double-free of blocks is occurred orig : [ DATA2 | FREE SPACE(free PA1) ] donor: [ FREE SPACE(DATA1) | DOUBLE FREE(used PA1) ] Signed-off-by: Akira Fujita <a-fujita@rs.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from ext4_free_blocks(). This simplifies the code in a large number of places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into a single place. Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the conversion. As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks. With this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

ext4_mb_free_blocks() is only called by ext4_free_blocks(), and the latter function doesn't really do much. So merge the two functions together, such that ext4_free_blocks() is now found in fs/ext4/mballoc.c. This saves about 200 bytes of compiled text space. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

The ext4_forget() function better belongs in ext4_jbd2.c. This will allow us to do some cleanup of the ext4_journal_revoke() and ext4_journal_forget() functions, as well as giving us better error reporting since we can report the caller of ext4_forget() when things go wrong.

Users on the linux-ext4 list recently complained about differences across filesystems w.r.t. how to mount without a journal replay. In the discussion it was noted that xfs's "norecovery" option is perhaps more descriptively accurate than "noload," so let's make that an alias for ext4. Also show this status in /proc/mounts Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

When an inode gets unlinked, the functions ext4_clear_blocks() and ext4_remove_blocks() call ext4_forget() for all the buffer heads corresponding to the deleted inode's data blocks. If the inode is a directory or a symlink, the is_metadata parameter must be non-zero so ext4_forget() will revoke them via jbd2_journal_revoke(). Otherwise, if these blocks are reused for a data file, and the system crashes before a journal checkpoint, the journal replay could end up corrupting these data blocks.

Now that we are checking for failed journal checksums in the jbd2 layer, we don't need to check in the ext4 mount path --- since a checksum fail will result in ext4_load_journal() returning an error, causing the file system to refuse to be mounted until e2fsck can deal with the problem.

If there is a failed journal checksum, don't reset the journal. This allows for userspace programs to decide how to recover from this situation. It may be that ignoring the journal checksum failure might be a better way of recovering the file system. Once we add per-block checksums, we can definitely do better. Until then, a system administrator can try backing up the file system image (or taking a snapshot) and and trying to determine experimentally whether ignoring the checksum failure or aborting the journal replay results in less data loss.

If CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is enabled, the double_down_write_data_sem() will trigger a false-positive warning of a recursive lock. Since we take i_data_sem for the two inodes ordered by their inode numbers, this isn't a problem. Use of down_write_nested() will notify the lock dependency checker machinery that there is no problem here.

ext4_move_extents() checks the logical block contiguousness of original file with ext4_find_extent() and mext_next_extent(). Therefore the extent which ext4_ext_path structure indicates must not be changed between above functions. But in current implementation, there is no i_data_sem protection between ext4_ext_find_extent() and mext_next_extent(). So the extent which ext4_ext_path structure indicates may be overwritten by delalloc. As a result, ext4_move_extents() will exchange wrong blocks between original and donor files. I change the place where acquire/release i_data_sem to solve this problem. Moreover, I changed move_extent_per_page() to start transaction first, and then acquire i_data_sem. Without this change, there is a possibility of the deadlock between mmap() and ext4_move_extents(): * NOTE: "A", "B" and "C" mean different processes A-1: ext4_ext_move_extents() acquires i_data_sem of two inodes. B: do_page_fault() starts the transaction (T), and then tries to acquire i_data_sem. But process "A" is already holding it, so it is kept waiting. C: While "A" and "B" running, kjournald2 tries to commit transaction (T) but it is under updating, so kjournald2 waits for it. A-2: Call ext4_journal_start with holding i_data_sem, but transaction (T) is locked. Signed-off-by: Akira Fujita <a-fujita@rs.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

If the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl fails, the number of blocks that were exchanged before the failure should be returned to the userspace caller. Unfortunately, currently if the block size is not the same as the page size, the returned block count that is returned is the page-aligned block count instead of the actual block count.

Previously add_dirent_to_buf() did not free its passed-in buffer head in the case of ENOSPC, since in some cases the caller still needed it. However, this led to potential buffer head leaks since not all callers dealt with this correctly. Fix this by making simplifying the freeing convention; now add_dirent_to_buf() *never* frees the passed-in buffer head, and leaves that to the responsibility of its caller. This makes things cleaner and easier to prove that the code is neither leaking buffer heads or calling brelse() one time too many.

Also, without this patch userland processes waiting for a specific PPS event (assert or clear but not both) may be awakened at wrong time.
