The inode table has been zeroed in setup_new_group_blocks(). Mark it as such in ext4_group_add(). Since we are currently clearing inode table for the new block group, we should set the EXT4_BG_INODE_ZEROED flag. If at some point in the future we don't immediately zero out the inode table as part of the resize operation, then obviously we shouldn't do this.

Add this so that file systems using JBD2 can safely allocate unused b_state bits. In this case, we add it so that Ocfs2 can define a single bit for tracking the validation state of a buffer. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

If the filesystem has errors, ext4_da_writepages() will return a *lot* of errors, including lots and lots of stack dumps. While it's true that we are dropping user data on the floor, which is unfortunate, the stack dumps aren't helpful, and they tend to obscure the true original root cause of the problem. So in the case where the filesystem has aborted, return an EROFS right away. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

The convenience function do_blk_alloc() is a static function with only one caller, so fold it into ext4_new_meta_blocks() to simplify the code and to make it easier to understand. To save more stack space, if count is a null pointer in ext4_new_meta_blocks() assume that caller wanted a single block (and if there is an error, no blocks were allocated).

There were only two one callers of the function ext4_new_meta_block(), which just a very simpler wrapper function around ext4_new_meta_blocks(). Change those two functions to call ext4_new_meta_blocks() directly, to save code and stack space usage. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

There was only one caller of the compatibility function ext4_new_blocks(), in balloc.c's ext4_alloc_blocks(). Change it to call ext4_mb_new_blocks() directly, and remove ext4_new_blocks() altogether. This cleans up the code, by removing two extra functions from the call chain, and hopefully saving some stack usage. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

The original ext3 hash algorithms assumed that variables of type char were signed, as God and K&R intended. Unfortunately, this assumption is not true on some architectures. Userspace support for marking filesystems with non-native signed/unsigned chars was added two years ago, but the kernel-side support was never added (until now).

With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could cause filesystem deadlocks. The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS anyway, so turn that into a single flag. Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there, change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive and does away with random leading underscores). This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a random example).

The function viafb_cursor() uses 2 stack-variables of CURSOR_SIZE bits; CURSOR_SIZE is defined as (8 * 1024). Using up twice 1k on stack is too much for 4k-stack (though it works with 8k-stacks). Make those two variables kzalloc'ed to preserve stack space. Also merge the whole lot of local struct's in viafb_ioctl into a union so the stack usage gets minimized here as well. (struct's are only accessed in their indicidual IOCTL case) This second part is only compile-tested as I know of no userspace app using the IOCTLs.

Problem: ordering between the rules on exit chain is currently lost; all watch and inode rules are listed after everything else _and_ exit,never on one kind doesn't stop exit,always on another from being matched.
