2007-07-18nfs: disable leases over NFSJ. Bruce Fields
As Peter Staubach says elsewhere (http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=118113649526444&w=2): > The problem is that some file system such as NFSv2 and NFSv3 do > not have sufficient support to be able to support leases correctly. > In particular for these two file systems, there is no over the wire > protocol support. > > Currently, these two file systems fail the fcntl(F_SETLEASE) call > accidentally, due to a reference counting difference. These file > systems should fail more consciously, with a proper error to > indicate that the call is invalid for them. Define an nfs setlease method that just returns -EINVAL.

2007-07-18gfs2: stop giving out non-cluster-coherent leasesMarc Eshel
Since gfs2 can't prevent conflicting opens or leases on other nodes, we probably shouldn't allow it to give out leases at all. Put the newly defined lease operation into use in gfs2 by turning off lease, unless we're using the "nolock' locking module (in which case all locking is local anyway).

2007-07-18locks: provide a file lease method enabling cluster-coherent leasesJ. Bruce Fields
Currently leases are only kept locally, so there's no way for a distributed filesystem to enforce them against multiple clients. We're particularly interested in the case of nfsd exporting a cluster filesystem, in which case nfsd needs cluster-coherent leases in order to implement delegations correctly. Also add some documentation. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2007-07-18locks: rename lease functions to reflect locks.c conventionsJ. Bruce Fields
We've been using the convention that vfs_foo is the function that calls a filesystem-specific foo method if it exists, or falls back on a generic method if it doesn't; thus vfs_foo is what is called when some other part of the kernel (normally lockd or nfsd) wants to get a lock, whereas foo is what filesystems call to use the underlying local functionality as part of their lock implementation. So rename setlease to vfs_setlease (which will call a filesystem-specific setlease after a later patch) and __setlease to setlease. Also, vfs_setlease need only be GPL-exported as long as it's only needed by lockd and nfsd. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

2007-07-18sysfs: cosmetic clean up on node creation failure pathsTejun Heo
Node addition failure is detected by testing return value of sysfs_addfm_finish() which returns the number of added and removed nodes. As the function is called as the last step of addition right on top of error handling block, the if blocks looked like the following. if (sysfs_addrm_finish(&acxt)) success handling, usually return; /* fall through to error handling */ This is the opposite of usual convention in sysfs and makes the code difficult to understand. This patch inverts the test and makes those blocks look more like others.

2007-07-18sysfs: kill an extra put in sysfs_create_link() failure pathTejun Heo
There is a subtle bug in sysfs_create_link() failure path. When symlink creation fails because there's already a node with the same name, the target sysfs_dirent is put twice - once by failure path of sysfs_create_link() and once more when the symlink is released. Fix it by making only the symlink node responsible for putting target_sd.

2007-07-18debugfs: remove rmdir() non-empty complaintJens Axboe
Hi, This patch kills the pointless debugfs rmdir() printk() when called on a non-empty directory. blktrace will sometimes have to call it a few times when forcefully ending a trace, which polutes the log with pointless warnings. Rationale: - It's more code to work-around this "problem" in the debugfs users, and you would have to add code to check for empty directories to do so (or assume that debugfs is using simple_ helpers, but that would be a layering violation). - Other rmdir() implementations don't complain about something this silly.

2007-07-18ext4: Remove 65000 subdirectory limitAndreas Dilger
This patch adds support to ext4 for allowing more than 65000 subdirectories. Currently the maximum number of subdirectories is capped at 32000. If we exceed 65000 subdirectories in an htree directory it sets the inode link count to 1 and no longer counts subdirectories. The directory link count is not actually used when determining if a directory is empty, as that only counts subdirectories and not regular files that might be in there. A EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_DIR_NLINK flag has been added and it is set if the subdir count for any directory crosses 65000. A later fsck will clear EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_DIR_NLINK if there are no longer any directory with >65000 subdirs.

2007-07-18ext4: Expand extra_inodes space per the s_{want,min}_extra_isize fields Kalpak Shah
We need to make sure that existing ext3 filesystems can also avail the new fields that have been added to the ext4 inode. We use s_want_extra_isize and s_min_extra_isize to decide by how much we should expand the inode. If EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE feature is set then we expand the inode by max(s_want_extra_isize, s_min_extra_isize , sizeof(ext4_inode) - EXT4_GOOD_OLD_INODE_SIZE) bytes. Actually it is still an open question about whether users should be able to set s_*_extra_isize smaller than the known fields or not. This patch also adds the functionality to expand inodes to include the newly added fields. We start by trying to expand by s_want_extra_isize bytes and if its fails we try to expand by s_min_extra_isize bytes. This is done by changing the i_extra_isize if enough space is available in the inode and no EAs are present. If EAs are present and there is enough space in the inode then the EAs in the inode are shifted to make space. If enough space is not available in the inode due to the EAs then 1 or more EAs are shifted to the external EA block. In the worst case when even the external EA block does not have enough space we inform the user that some EA would need to be deleted or s_min_extra_isize would have to be reduced.

2007-07-18ext4: Add nanosecond timestampsKalpak Shah
This patch adds nanosecond timestamps for ext4. This involves adding *time_extra fields to the ext4_inode to extend the timestamps to 64-bits. Creation time is also added by this patch. These extended fields will fit into an inode if the filesystem was formatted with large inodes (-I 256 or larger) and there are currently no EAs consuming all of the available space. For new inodes we always reserve enough space for the kernel's known extended fields, but for inodes created with an old kernel this might not have been the case. So this patch also adds the EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE feature flag(ro-compat so that older kernels can't create inodes with a smaller extra_isize). which indicates if the fields fitting inside s_min_extra_isize are available or not. If the expansion of inodes if unsuccessful then this feature will be disabled. This feature is only enabled if requested by the sysadmin. None of the extended inode fields is critical for correct filesystem operation.

With this change it will be possible to have initialized extents with 2^15 blocks (earlier the max blocks we could have was 2^15 - 1). This way we can have better extent-to-block alignment.

2007-07-17sys_fallocate() implementation on i386, x86_64 and powerpcAmit Arora
fallocate() is a new system call being proposed here which will allow applications to preallocate space to any file(s) in a file system. Each file system implementation that wants to use this feature will need to support an inode operation called ->fallocate(). Applications can use this feature to avoid fragmentation to certain level and thus get faster access speed. With preallocation, applications also get a guarantee of space for particular file(s) - even if later the the system becomes full. Currently, glibc provides an interface called posix_fallocate() which can be used for similar cause. Though this has the advantage of working on all file systems, but it is quite slow (since it writes zeroes to each block that has to be preallocated). Without a doubt, file systems can do this more efficiently within the kernel, by implementing the proposed fallocate() system call. It is expected that posix_fallocate() will be modified to call this new system call first and incase the kernel/filesystem does not implement it, it should fall back to the current implementation of writing zeroes to the new blocks. ToDos: 1. Implementation on other architectures (other than i386, x86_64, and ppc). Patches for s390(x) and ia64 are already available from previous posts, but it was decided that they should be added later once fallocate is in the mainline. Hence not including those patches in this take. 2. Changes to glibc, a) to support fallocate() system call b) to make posix_fallocate() and posix_fallocate64() call fallocate() Signed-off-by: Amit Arora <aarora@in.ibm.com>

Introduce is_owner_or_cap() macro in fs.h, and convert over relevant users to it. This is done because we want to avoid bugs in the future where we check for only effective fsuid of the current task against a file's owning uid, without simultaneously checking for CAP_FOWNER as well, thus violating its semantics. [ XFS uses special macros and structures, and in general looked ... untouchable, so we leave it alone -- but it has been looked over. ] The (current->fsuid != inode->i_uid) check in generic_permission() and exec_permission_lite() is left alone, because those operations are covered by CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE and CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH. Similarly operations falling under the purview of CAP_CHOWN and CAP_LEASE are also left alone.

Following was uncovered by compiling the kernel with '-W' flag: CC [M] fs/ecryptfs/inode.o fs/ecryptfs/inode.c: In function ‘ecryptfs_lookup’: fs/ecryptfs/inode.c:304: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false fs/ecryptfs/inode.c: In function ‘ecryptfs_symlink’: fs/ecryptfs/inode.c:486: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false Function ecryptfs_encode_filename() can return -ENOMEM, so change the variables to plain int, as in the first case the only real use actually expects int, and in latter case there is no use beoynd the error check.
