5beb6e0b20 nilfs2: add bdev freeze/thaw support
Nilfs hasn't supported the freeze/thaw feature because it didn't work
due to the peculiar design that multiple super block instances could
be allocated for a device.  This limitation was removed by the patch
"nilfs2: do not allocate multiple super block instances for a device".

So now this adds the freeze/thaw support to nilfs.

c05dbfc260 nilfs2: accept 64-bit checkpoint numbers in cp mount option
The current implementation doesn't mount snapshots with checkpoint
numbers larger than INT_MAX since it uses match_int() for parsing
"cp=" mount option.

This uses simple_strtoull() for the conversion to resolve the issue.

032dbb3b50 nilfs2: see state of root dentry for mount check of snapshots
After applied the patch that unified sb instances, root dentry of
snapshots can be left in dcache even after their trees are unmounted.

The orphan root dentry/inode keeps a root object, and this causes
false positive of nilfs_checkpoint_is_mounted function.

This resolves the issue by having nilfs_checkpoint_is_mounted test
whether the root dentry is busy or not.

f11459ad7d nilfs2: do not allocate multiple super block instances for a device
This stops allocating multiple super block instances for a device.

All snapshots and a current mode mount (i.e. latest tree) will be
controlled with nilfs_root objects that are kept within an sb
instance.

nilfs_get_sb() is rewritten so that it always has a root object for
the latest tree and snapshots make additional root objects.

The root dentry of the latest tree is binded to sb->s_root even if it
isn't attached on a directory.  Root dentries of snapshots or the
latest tree are binded to mnt->mnt_root on which they are mounted.

With this patch, nilfs_find_sbinfo() function, nilfs->ns_supers list,
and nilfs->ns_current back pointer, are deleted.  In addition,
init_nilfs() and load_nilfs() are simplified since they will be called
once for a device, not repeatedly called for mount points.

db71922217 BKL: Explicitly add BKL around get_sb/fill_super
This patch is a preparation necessary to remove the BKL from do_new_mount().
It explicitly adds calls to lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() around
get_sb/fill_super operations for filesystems that still uses the BKL.

I've read through all the code formerly covered by the BKL inside
do_kern_mount() and have satisfied myself that it doesn't need the BKL
any more.

do_kern_mount() is already called without the BKL when mounting the rootfs
and in nfsctl. do_kern_mount() calls vfs_kern_mount(), which is called
from various places without BKL: simple_pin_fs(), nfs_do_clone_mount()
through nfs_follow_mountpoint(), afs_mntpt_do_automount() through
afs_mntpt_follow_link(). Both later functions are actually the filesystems
follow_link inode operation. vfs_kern_mount() is calling the specified
get_sb function and lets the filesystem do its job by calling the given
fill_super function.

Therefore I think it is safe to push down the BKL from the VFS to the
low-level filesystems get_sb/fill_super operation.

[arnd: do not add the BKL to those file systems that already
       don't use it elsewhere]

b2ac86e1a8 nilfs2: sync super blocks in turns
This will sync super blocks in turns instead of syncing duplicate
super blocks at the time.  This will help searching valid super root
when super block is written into disk before log is written, which is
happen when barrier-less block devices are unmounted uncleanly.  In
the situation, old super block likely points to valid log.

This patch introduces ns_sbwcount member to the nilfs object and adds
nilfs_sb_will_flip() function; ns_sbwcount counts how many times super
blocks write back to the disk.  And, nilfs_sb_will_flip() decides
whether flipping required or not based on the count of ns_sbwcount to
sync super blocks asymmetrically.

The following functions are also changed:

 - nilfs_prepare_super(): flips super blocks according to the
   argument.  The argument is calculated by nilfs_sb_will_flip()
   function.

 - nilfs_cleanup_super(): sets "clean" flag to both super blocks if
   they point to the same checkpoint.

To update both of super block information, caller of
nilfs_commit_super must set the information on both super blocks.

d240e06713 nilfs2: disallow remount of snapshot from/to a regular mount
Snapshots and regular ro/rw mounts are essentially-different within
the meaning whether the checkpoint is static or not and is marked with
a snapshot flag or not.

The current implemenation, however, allows to remount a snapshot to a
regular rw-mount if the checkpoint number equals the latest one.

This transition is actually impossible since changing a checkpoint to
a snapshot makes another checkpoint, thus the condition is never
satisfied.

This fixes the weird state of affairs, and specifically separates
snapshots and regular rw/ro-mounts.

This cleanup patch gives several improvements:

 - Moving all kmem_cache_{create_destroy} calls into one place, which removes
 some small function calls, cleans up error check code and clarify the logic.

 - Mark all initial code in __init section.

 - Remove some very obvious comments.

 - Adjust some declarations.

 - Fix some space-tab issues.

277a6a3417 nilfs2: change default of 'errors' mount option to 'remount-ro' mode
Like ext3, nilfs has 'errors' mount option to allow specifying desired
behavior on severe errors.

Currently, the default action is 'errors=continue' and has potential
to advance filesystem corruption for severe errors.

This will change the action to 'errors=remount-ro' to avoid the issue.

fe5f171bb2 nilfs2: fix potential hang in nilfs_error on errors=remount-ro
nilfs_error() calls nilfs_detach_segment_constructor() if
errors=remount-ro option is specified, and this may lead to a hang due
to recursive locking of, for instance, nilfs->ns_segctor_sem and
others.

In this case, detaching segment constructor is not necessary because
read-only flag is set to the filesystem and further writes are
blocked.

This fixes the potential hang issue by removing the
nilfs_detach_segment_constructor() call from nilfs_error.

e59399d010 nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount function
nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance.  Even
though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or
remount, the mount state was not properly protected in
nilfs_remount().

Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem;
nilfs_get_sb() holds:

  1. bdev->bd_mount_sem
  2. sb->s_umount  (sget acquires)

and nilfs_remount() holds:

  1. sb->s_umount  (locked by the caller in vfs)
  2. bdev->bd_mount_sem

To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting
super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount
state protection in nilfs_remount().

With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and
the lock order reversal will be resolved.  And the new rw-semaphore,
nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the
modification from nilfs_error function.

612392307c nilfs2: support nanosecond timestamp
After a review of user's feedback for finding out other compatibility
issues, I found nilfs improperly initializes timestamps in inode;
CURRENT_TIME was used there instead of CURRENT_TIME_SEC even though nilfs
didn't have nanosecond timestamps on disk.  A few users gave us the report
that the tar program sometimes failed to expand symbolic links on nilfs,
and it turned out to be the cause.

Instead of applying the above displacement, I've decided to support
nanosecond timestamps on this occation.  Fortunetaly, a needless 64-bit
field was in the nilfs_inode struct, and I found it's available for this
purpose without impact for the users.

So, this will do the enhancement and resolve the tar problem.

e339ad31f5 nilfs2: introduce secondary super block
The former versions didn't have extra super blocks.  This improves the
weak point by introducing another super block at unused region in tail of
the partition.

This doesn't break disk format compatibility; older versions just ingore
the secondary super block, and new versions just recover it if it doesn't
exist.  The partition created by an old mkfs may not have unused region,
but in that case, the secondary super block will not be added.

This doesn't make more redundant copies of the super block; it is a future
work.

cece552074 nilfs2: simplify handling of active state of segments
will reduce some lines of segment constructor.  Previously, the state was
complexly controlled through a list of segments in order to keep
consistency in meta data of usage state of segments.  Instead, this
presents ``calculated'' active flags to userland cleaner program and stop
maintaining its real flag on disk.

Only by this fake flag, the cleaner cannot exactly know if each segment is
reclaimable or not.  However, the recent extension of nilfs_sustat ioctl
struct (nilfs2-extend-nilfs_sustat-ioctl-struct.patch) can prevent the
cleaner from reclaiming in-use segment wrongly.

So, now I can apply this for simplification.

1f5abe7e7d nilfs2: replace BUG_ON and BUG calls triggerable from ioctl
Pekka Enberg advised me:
> It would be nice if BUG(), BUG_ON(), and panic() calls would be
> converted to proper error handling using WARN_ON() calls. The BUG()
> call in nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints(), for example, looks to be
> triggerable from user-space via the ioctl() system call.

This will follow the comment and keep them to a minimum.

2c2e52fc4f nilfs2: extend nilfs_sustat ioctl struct
This adds a new argument to the nilfs_sustat structure.

The extended field allows to delete volatile active state of segments,
which was needed to protect freshly-created segments from garbage
collection but has confused code dealing with segments.  This
extension alleviates the mess and gives room for further
simplifications.

The volatile active flag is not persistent, so it's eliminable on this
occasion without affecting compatibility other than the ioctl change.
