2018-10-23ubifs: Create functions to embed a HMAC in a nodeSascha Hauer1-6/+66
With authentication support some nodes (master node, super block node) get a HMAC embedded into them. This patch adds functions to prepare and write such a node. The difficulty is that besides the HMAC the nodes also have a CRC which must stay valid. This means we first have to initialize all fields in the node, then calculate the HMAC (not covering the CRC) and finally calculate the CRC.

When adding authentication support we will embed a HMAC into some nodes. To prepare these nodes we have to first initialize the nodes, then add a HMAC and finally add a CRC.

2017-11-27Rename superblock flags (MS_xyz -> SB_xyz)Linus Torvalds1-1/+1
This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel superblock flags. The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to. Note how the MS_xyz flags are the ones passed to the mount system call, while the SB_xyz flags are what we then use in sb->s_flags. The script to do this was: # places to look in; re security/*: it generally should *not* be # touched (that stuff parses mount(2) arguments directly), but # there are two places where we really deal with superblock flags.

2016-12-12ubifs: Use dirty_writeback_interval value for wbuf timerRafał Miłecki1-4/+4
Right now wbuf timer has hardcoded timeouts and there is no place for manual adjustments. Some projects / cases many need that though. Few file systems allow doing that by respecting dirty_writeback_interval that can be set using sysctl (dirty_writeback_centisecs). Lowering dirty_writeback_interval could be some way of dealing with user space apps lacking proper fsyncs. This is definitely *not* a perfect solution but we don't have ideal (user space) world. There were already advanced discussions on this matter, mostly when ext4 was introduced and it wasn't behaving as ext3. Anyway, the final decision was to add some hacks to the ext4, as trying to fix whole user space or adding new API was pointless. We can't (and shouldn't?) just follow ext4. We can't e.g. sync on close as this would cause too many commits and flash wearing. On the other hand we still should allow some trade-off between -o sync and default wbuf timeout. Respecting dirty_writeback_interval should allow some sane cutomizations if used warily.

2015-03-25UBIFS: extend debug/message capabilitiesSheng Yong1-20/+20
In the case where we have more than one volumes on different UBI devices, it may be not that easy to tell which volume prints the messages. Add ubi number and volume id in ubifs_msg/warn/error to help debug. These two values are passed by struct ubifs_info. For those where ubifs_info is not initialized yet, ubifs_* is replaced by pr_*. For those where ubifs_info is not avaliable, ubifs_info is passed to the calling function as a const parameter.

2011-05-16UBIFS: synchronize write-buffer before switching to the next budArtem Bityutskiy1-9/+3
Currently when UBIFS fills up the current bud (which is the last in the journal head) and switches to the next bud, it first writes the log reference node for the next bud and only after this synchronizes the write-buffer of the previous bud. This is not a big deal, but an unclean power cut may lead to a situation when we have corruption in a next-to-last bud, although it is much more logical that we have to have corruption only in the last bud. This patch also removes write-buffer synchronization from 'ubifs_wbuf_seek_nolock()' because this is not needed anymore (we synchronize the write-buffer explicitly everywhere now) and also because this is just prone to various errors.

Switch write-buffers from 'c->min_io_size' to 'c->max_write_size' which presumably has to be more write speed-efficient. However, when write-buffer is synchronized, write only the the min. I/O units which contain the data, do not write whole write-buffer. This is more space-efficient.

Now the 'c->always_chk_crc' flag is the same as 'c->remounting_rw && c->mounting'. This patch is a preparation for the next one which will need to know when we are mounting and remounting to R/W mode, which is exactly what 'c->always_chk_crc' effectively is, but its name does not suite the next patch. The other possibility would be to just re-name it, but then we'd end up with less logical flags coverage. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-09-19UBIFS: introduce new flags for RO mountsArtem Bityutskiy1-5/+4
Commit 2fde99cb55fb9d9b88180512a5e8a5d939d27fec "UBIFS: mark VFS SB RO too" introduced regression. This commit made UBIFS set the 'MS_RDONLY' flag in the VFS superblock when it switches to R/O mode due to an error. This was done to make VFS show the R/O UBIFS flag in /proc/mounts. However, several places in UBIFS relied on the 'MS_RDONLY' flag and assume this flag can only change when we re-mount. For example, 'ubifs_put_super()'. This patch introduces new UBIFS flag - 'c->ro_mount' which changes only when we re-mount, and preserves the way UBIFS was originally mounted (R/W or R/O). This allows us to de-initialize UBIFS cleanly in 'ubifs_put_super()'. This patch also changes all 'ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media)' assertions to 'ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media && !c->ro_mount)', because we never should write anything if the FS was mounter R/O. All the places where we test for 'MS_RDONLY' flag in the VFS SB were changed and now we test the 'c->ro_mount' flag instead, because it preserves the original UBIFS mount type, unlike the 'MS_RDONLY' flag.

2010-09-17UBIFS: introduce new flag for RO due to errorsArtem Bityutskiy1-6/+10
The R/O state may have various reasons: 1. The UBI volume is R/O 2. The FS is mounted R/O 3. The FS switched to R/O mode because of an error However, in UBIFS we have only one variable which represents cases 1 and 3 - 'c->ro_media'. Indeed, we set this to 1 if we switch to R/O mode due to an error, and then we test it in many places to make sure that we stop writing as soon as the error happens. But this is very unclean. One consequence of this, for example, is that in 'ubifs_remount_fs()' we use 'c->ro_media' to check whether we are in R/O mode because on an error, and we print a message in this case. However, if we are in R/O mode because the media is R/O, our message is bogus. This patch introduces new flag - 'c->ro_error' which is set when we switch to R/O mode because of an error. It also changes all "if (c->ro_media)" checks to "if (c->ro_error)" checks, because this is what the checks actually mean. We do not need to check for 'c->ro_media' because if the UBI volume is in R/O mode, we do not allow R/W mounting, and now writes can happen. This is guaranteed by VFS. But it is good to double-check this, so this patch also adds many "ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media)" checks. In the 'ubifs_remount_fs()' function this patch makes a bit more changes - it fixes the error messages as well. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2009-06-08UBIFS: start using hrtimersArtem Bityutskiy1-13/+21
UBIFS uses timers for write-buffer write-back. It is not crucial for us to write-back exactly on time. We are fine to write-back a little earlier or later. And this means we may optimize UBIFS timer so that it could be groped with a close timer event, so that the CPU would not be waken up just to do the write back. This is optimization to lessen power consumption, which is important in embedded devices UBIFS is used for. hrtimers have a nice feature: they are effectively range timers, and we may defind the soft and hard limits for it. Standard timers do not have these feature. They may only be made deferrable, but this means there is effectively no hard limit. So, we will better use hrtimers.
