ext4: force inode writes when nfsd calls commit_metadata()

2018-12-19T19:07:58Z

Some time back, nfsd switched from calling vfs_fsync() to using a new commit_metadata() hook in export_operations(). If the file system did not provide a commit_metadata() hook, it fell back to using sync_inode_metadata(). Unfortunately doesn't work on all file systems. In particular, it doesn't work on ext4 due to how the inode gets journalled --- the VFS writeback code will not always call ext4_write_inode(). So we need to provide our own ext4_nfs_commit_metdata() method which calls ext4_write_inode() directly. Google-Bug-Id: 121195940 Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Cc: stable@kernel.org

ext4: adjust reserved cluster count when removing extents

2018-10-01T18:25:08Z

Modify ext4_ext_remove_space() and the code it calls to correct the reserved cluster count for pending reservations (delayed allocated clusters shared with allocated blocks) when a block range is removed from the extent tree. Pending reservations may be found for the clusters at the ends of written or unwritten extents when a block range is removed. If a physical cluster at the end of an extent is freed, it's necessary to increment the reserved cluster count to maintain correct accounting if the corresponding logical cluster is shared with at least one delayed and unwritten extent as found in the extents status tree. Add a new function, ext4_rereserve_cluster(), to reapply a reservation on a delayed allocated cluster sharing blocks with a freed allocated cluster. To avoid ENOSPC on reservation, a flag is applied to ext4_free_blocks() to briefly defer updating the freeclusters counter when an allocated cluster is freed. This prevents another thread from allocating the freed block before the reservation can be reapplied. Redefine the partial cluster object as a struct to carry more state information and to clarify the code using it. Adjust the conditional code structure in ext4_ext_remove_space to reduce the indentation level in the main body of the code to improve readability.

ext4: fix reserved cluster accounting at delayed write time

2018-10-01T18:19:37Z

The code in ext4_da_map_blocks sometimes reserves space for more delayed allocated clusters than it should, resulting in premature ENOSPC, exceeded quota, and inaccurate free space reporting. Fix this by checking for written and unwritten blocks shared in the same cluster with the newly delayed allocated block. A cluster reservation should not be made for a cluster for which physical space has already been allocated. Signed-off-by: Eric Whitney Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

ext4: generalize extents status tree search functions

2018-10-01T18:10:39Z

Ext4 contains a few functions that are used to search for delayed extents or blocks in the extents status tree. Rather than duplicate code to add new functions to search for extents with different status values, such as written or a combination of delayed and unwritten, generalize the existing code to search for caller-specified extents status values. Also, move this code into extents_status.c where it is better associated with the data structures it operates upon, and where it can be more readily used to implement new extents status tree functions that might want a broader scope for i_es_lock.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ext4: remove unused metadata accounting variables

2017-07-31T02:30:11Z

Two variables in ext4_inode_info, i_reserved_meta_blocks and i_allocated_meta_blocks, are unused. Removing them saves a little memory per in-memory inode and cleans up clutter in several tracepoints. Adjust tracepoint output from ext4_alloc_da_blocks() for consistency and fix a typo and whitespace near these changes. Signed-off-by: Eric Whitney Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Reviewed-by: Jan Kara
