2010-07-12ocfs2: Make xattr reflink work with new local alloc reservation.Tao Ma1-36/+90
The new reservation code in local alloc has add the limitation that the caller should handle the case that the local alloc doesn't give use enough contiguous clusters. It make the old xattr reflink code broken. So this patch udpate the xattr reflink code so that it can handle the case that local alloc give us one cluster at a time.

2010-07-12ocfs2: make xattr extension work with new local alloc reservation.Tao Ma1-29/+45
The old ocfs2_xattr_extent_allocation is too optimistic about the clusters we can get. So actually if the file system is too fragmented, ocfs2_add_clusters_in_btree will return us with EGAIN and we need to allocate clusters once again. So this patch change it to a while loop so that we can allocate clusters until we reach clusters_to_add.

2010-05-18ocfs2: Don't retry xattr set in case value extension fails.Tao Ma1-2/+4
In normal xattr set, the set sequence is inode, xattr block and finally xattr bucket if we meet with a ENOSPC. But there is a corner case. So consider we will set a xattr whose value will be stored in a cluster, and there is no xattr block by now. So we will reserve 1 xattr block and 1 cluster for setting it. Now if we fail in value extension(in case the volume is almost full and we can't allocate the cluster because the check in ocfs2_test_bg_bit_allocatable), ENOSPC will be returned. So we will try to create a bucket(this time there is a chance that the reserved cluster will be used), and when we try value extension again, kernel bug happens. We did meet with it. Check the bug below. http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1251 This patch just try to avoid this by adding a set_abort in ocfs2_xattr_set_ctxt, so in case ENOSPC happens in value extension, we will check whether it is caused by the real ENOSPC or just the full of inode or xattr block. If it is the first case, we set set_abort so that we don't try any further. we are safe to exit directly here ince it is really ENOSPC.

2010-05-18ocfs2: Reset xattr value size after xa_cleanup_value_truncate().Tao Ma1-7/+10
In ocfs2_prepare_xattr_entry, if we fail to grow an existing value, xa_cleanup_value_truncate() will leave the old entry in place. Thus, we reset its value size. However, if we were allocating a new value, we must not reset the value size or we will BUG(). This resolves oss.oracle.com bug 1247.

2010-05-05ocfs2: Make ocfs2_extend_trans() really extend.Tao Ma1-11/+6
In ocfs2, we use ocfs2_extend_trans() to extend a journal handle's blocks. But if jbd2_journal_extend() fails, it will only restart with the the new number of blocks. This tends to be awkward since in most cases we want additional reserved blocks. It makes our code harder to mantain since the caller can't be sure all the original blocks will not be accessed and dirtied again. There are 15 callers of ocfs2_extend_trans() in fs/ocfs2, and 12 of them have to add h_buffer_credits before they call ocfs2_extend_trans(). This makes ocfs2_extend_trans() really extend atop the original block count. Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <tao.ma@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
2010-05-05ocfs2: Make ocfs2_journal_dirty() void.Joel Becker1-31/+7
jbd[2]_journal_dirty_metadata() only returns 0. It's been returning 0 since before the kernel moved to git. There is no point in checking this error. ocfs2_journal_dirty() has been faithfully returning the status since the beginning. All over ocfs2, we have blocks of code checking this can't fail status. In the past few years, we've tried to avoid adding these checks, because they are pointless. But anyone who looks at our code assumes they are needed. Finally, ocfs2_journal_dirty() is made a void function. All error checking is removed from other files. We'll BUG_ON() the status of jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() just in case they change it someday. They won't. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>

2010-03-19ocfs2: Fix the update of name_offset when removing xattrsTao Ma1-1/+1
When replacing a xattr's value, in some case we wipe its name/value first and then re-add it. The wipe is done by ocfs2_xa_block_wipe_namevalue() when the xattr is in the inode or block. We currently adjust name_offset for all the entries which have (offset < name_offset). This does not adjust the entrie we're replacing. Since we are replacing the entry, we don't adjust the total entry count. When we calculate a new namevalue location, we trust the entries now-wrong offset in ocfs2_xa_get_free_start(). The solution is to also adjust the name_offset for the replaced entry, allowing ocfs2_xa_get_free_start() to calculate the new namevalue location correctly. The following script can trigger a kernel panic easily. echo 'y'|mkfs.ocfs2 --fs-features=local,xattr -b 4K $DEVICE mount -t ocfs2 $DEVICE $MNT_DIR FILE=$MNT_DIR/$RANDOM for((i=0;i<76;i++)) do string_76="a$string_76" done string_78="aa$string_76" string_82="aaaa$string_78" touch $FILE setfattr -n 'user.test1234567890' -v $string_76 $FILE setfattr -n 'user.test1234567890' -v $string_78 $FILE setfattr -n 'user.test1234567890' -v $string_82 $FILE Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <tao.ma@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
2010-02-26ocfs2: Handle errors while setting external xattr values.Joel Becker1-16/+124
ocfs2 can store extended attribute values as large as a single file. It does this using a standard ocfs2 btree for the large value. However, the previous code did not handle all error cases cleanly. There are multiple problems to have. 1) We have trouble allocating space for a new xattr. This leaves us with an empty xattr. 2) We overwrote an existing local xattr with a value root, and now we have an error allocating the storage. This leaves us an empty xattr. where there used to be a value. The value is lost. 3) We have trouble truncating a reused value. This leaves us with the original entry pointing to the truncated original value. The value is lost. 4) We have trouble extending the storage on a reused value. This leaves us with the original value safely in place, but with more storage allocated when needed. This doesn't consider storing local xattrs (values that don't require a btree). Those only fail when the journal fails. Case (1) is easy. We just remove the xattr we added. We leak the storage because we can't safely remove it, but otherwise everything is happy. We'll print a warning about the leak. Case (4) is easy. We still have the original value in place. We can just leave the extra storage attached to this xattr. We return the error, but the old value is untouched. We print a warning about the storage. Case (2) and (3) are hard because we've lost the original values. In the old code, we ended up with values that could be partially read. That's not good. Instead, we just wipe the xattr entry and leak the storage. It stinks that the original value is lost, but now there isn't a partial value to be read. We'll print a big fat warning. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
2010-02-26ocfs2: Set inline xattr entries with ocfs2_xa_set()Joel Becker1-84/+73
ocfs2_xattr_ibody_set() is the only remaining user of ocfs2_xattr_set_entry(). ocfs2_xattr_set_entry() actually does two things: it calls ocfs2_xa_set(), and it initializes the inline xattrs. Initializing the inline space really belongs in its own call. We lift the initialization to ocfs2_xattr_ibody_init(), called from ocfs2_xattr_ibody_set() only when necessary. Now ocfs2_xattr_ibody_set() can call ocfs2_xa_set() directly. ocfs2_xattr_set_entry() goes away. Another nice fact is that ocfs2_init_dinode_xa_loc() can trust i_xattr_inline_size.

2010-02-26ocfs2: Set xattr block entries with ocfs2_xa_set()Joel Becker1-50/+49
ocfs2_xattr_block_set() calls into ocfs2_xattr_set_entry() with just the HAS_XATTR flag. Most of the machinery of ocfs2_xattr_set_entry() is skipped. All that really happens other than the call to ocfs2_xa_set() is making sure the HAS_XATTR flag is set on the inode. But HAS_XATTR should be set when we also set di->i_xattr_loc. And that's done in ocfs2_create_xattr_block(). So let's move it there, and then ocfs2_xattr_block_set() can just call ocfs2_xa_set(). While we're there, ocfs2_create_xattr_block() can take the set_ctxt for a smaller argument list. It also learns to set HAS_XATTR_FL, because it knows for sure. ocfs2_create_empty_xatttr_block() in the reflink path fakes a set_ctxt to call ocfs2_create_xattr_block().

2010-02-26ocfs2: Let ocfs2_xa_prepare_entry() do space checks.Joel Becker1-177/+93
ocfs2_xattr_set_in_bucket() doesn't need to do its own hacky space checking. Let's let ocfs2_xa_prepare_entry() (via ocfs2_xa_set()) do the more accurate work. Whenever it doesn't have space, ocfs2_xattr_set_in_bucket() can try to get more space. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
2010-02-26ocfs2: Gell into ocfs2_xa_set()Joel Becker1-46/+42
ocfs2_xa_set() wraps the ocfs2_xa_prepare_entry()/ocfs2_xa_store_value() logic. Both callers can now use the same routine. ocfs2_xa_remove() moves directly into ocfs2_xa_set(). Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
2010-02-26ocfs2: Allocation in ocfs2_xa_prepare_entry(), values in ocfs2_xa_store_value()Joel Becker1-475/+186
ocfs2_xa_prepare_entry() gets all the logic to add, remove, or modify external value trees. Now, when it exits, the entry is ready to receive a value of any size. ocfs2_xa_remove() is added to handle the complete removal of an entry. It truncates the external value tree before calling ocfs2_xa_remove_entry(). ocfs2_xa_store_inline_value() becomes ocfs2_xa_store_value(). It can store any value. ocfs2_xattr_set_entry() loses all the allocation logic and just uses these functions. ocfs2_xattr_set_value_outside() disappears. ocfs2_xattr_set_in_bucket() uses these functions and makes ocfs2_xattr_set_entry_in_bucket() obsolete. That goes away, as does ocfs2_xattr_bucket_set_value_outside() and ocfs2_xattr_bucket_value_truncate(). Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>

2010-02-26ocfs2: Handle value tree roots in ocfs2_xa_set_inline_value()Joel Becker1-38/+16
Previously the xattr code would send in a fake value, containing a tree root, to the function that installed name+value pairs. Instead, we pass the real value to ocfs2_xa_set_inline_value(), and it notices that the value cannot fit. Thus, it installs a tree root. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
2010-02-26ocfs2: Set the xattr name+value pair in one placeJoel Becker1-223/+411
We create two new functions on ocfs2_xa_loc, ocfs2_xa_prepare_entry() and ocfs2_xa_store_inline_value(). ocfs2_xa_prepare_entry() makes sure that the xl_entry field of ocfs2_xa_loc is ready to receive an xattr. The entry will point to an appropriately sized name+value region in storage. If an existing entry can be reused, it will be. If no entry already exists, it will be allocated. If there isn't space to allocate it, -ENOSPC will be returned. ocfs2_xa_store_inline_value() stores the data that goes into the 'value' part of the name+value pair. For values that don't fit directly, this stores the value tree root. A number of operations are added to ocfs2_xa_loc_operations to support these functions. This reflects the disparate behaviors of xattr blocks and buckets. With these functions, the overlapping ocfs2_xattr_set_entry_local() and ocfs2_xattr_set_entry_normal() can be replaced with a single call scheme. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
2010-02-26ocfs2: Wrap calculation of name+value pair size.Joel Becker1-105/+65
An ocfs2 xattr entry stores the text name and value as a pair in the storage area. Obviously names and values can be variable-sized. If a value is too large for the entry storage, a tree root is stored instead. The name+value pair is also padded. Because of this, there are a million places in the code that do: if (needs_external_tree(value_size) namevalue_size = pad(name_size) + tree_root_size; else namevalue_size = pad(name_size) + pad(value_size); Let's create some convenience functions to make the code more readable. There are three forms. The first takes the raw sizes. The second takes an ocfs2_xattr_info structure. The third takes an existing ocfs2_xattr_entry.

2010-02-26ocfs2: Introduce ocfs2_xa_locJoel Becker1-15/+226
The ocfs2 extended attribute (xattr) code is very flexible. It can store xattrs in the inode itself, in an external block, or in a tree of data structures. This allows the number of xattrs to be bounded by the filesystem size. However, the code that manages each possible storage location is different. Maintaining the ocfs2 xattr code requires changing each hunk separately. This patch is the start of a series introducing the ocfs2_xa_loc structure. This structure wraps the on-disk details of an xattr entry. The goal is that the generic xattr routines can use ocfs2_xa_loc without knowing the underlying storage location. This first pass merely implements the basic structure, initializing it, and wiping the name+value pair of the entry. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>

Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr handler methods. This allows using the same methods for multiple handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying attribute. With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch. Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later, e.g. cifs.
