This replaces s_dirt flag use in nilfs with a new flag added on the
nilfs object. The s_dirt flag was used to indicate if
sop->write_super() should be called, however the current version of
nilfs does not use the callback. Thus, it can be replaced with the
own flag.

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.

This fixes incorrect usage of nilfs_segctor_confirm() test function in

This separates wait function for submitted logs from the write
function nilfs_segctor_write(). A new list of segment buffers
"sc_write_logs" is added to hold logs under writing, and double
buffering is partially applied to hide io latency.
At this point, the double buffering is disabled for blocksize <
pagesize because page dirty flag is turned off during write and dirty
buffers are not properly collected for pages crossing over segments.
To receive full benefit of the double buffering, further refinement is
needed to move the io wait outside the lock section of log writer.

When nilfs flushes out dirty data to reduce memory pressure, creation
of checkpoints is wrongly postponed. This bug causes irregular
checkpoint creation especially in small footprint systems.
To correct this issue, a timer for the checkpoint creation has to be
continued if a log writer does not create a checkpoint.
This will do the correction.

This removes nilfs_write_super and commit super block in nilfs
internal thread, instead of periodic write_super callback.
VFS layer calls ->write_super callback periodically. However,
it looks like that calling back is ommited when disk I/O is busy.
And when cleanerd (nilfs GC) is runnig, disk I/O tend to be busy thus
nilfs superblock is not synchronized as nilfs designed.
To avoid it, syncing superblock by nilfs thread instead of pdflush.

Andrea Gelmini gave me a report that a kernel oops hit on a nilfs
filesystem with a 1KB block size when doing rsync.
This turned out to be caused by an inconsistency of dirty state
between a page and its buffers storing b-tree node blocks.
If the page had multiple buffers split over multiple logs, and if the
logs were written at a time, a dirty flag remained in the page even
every dirty flag in the buffers was cleared.
This will fix the failure by dropping the dirty flag properly for
pages with the discrete multiple b-tree nodes.

The following error code handling in nilfs_segctor_write() function
wrongly converted negative error codes to a truth value (i.e. 1):
err = unlikely(err) ? : res;
which originaly meant to be
err = err ? : res;
This mis-conversion caused that write or sync functions receive the
unexpected error code. This fixes the bug by removing the unlikely
directive.

And, page fault path may hold:

Even though nilfs_clean_segments() does not perform write access on
given user pages, it may cause deadlock because nilfs->ns_segctor_sem
is shared per device and mm->mmap_sem can be shared with other tasks.
To avoid this problem, this patch moves all calls of copy_from_user()
outside the nilfs->ns_segctor_sem lock in the ioctl.

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.

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.

Nilfs creates checkpoints even for garbage collection or metadata updates
such as checkpoint mode change. So, user often sees checkpoints created
only by such internal operations.
This is inconvenient in some situations. For example, application that
monitors checkpoints and changes them to snapshots, will fall into an
infinite loop because it cannot distinguish internally created
checkpoints.
This patch solves this sort of problem by adding a flag to checkpoint for
identification.

The sketch file is a file to mark checkpoints with user data. It was
experimentally introduced in the original implementation, and now
obsolete. The file was handled differently with regular files; the file
size got truncated when a checkpoint was created.
This stops the special treatment and will treat it as a regular file.
Most users are not affected because mkfs.nilfs2 no longer makes this file.

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.

This removes NILFS_IOCTL_TIMEDWAIT command from ioctl interface along
with the related flags and wait queue.
The command is terrible because it just sleeps in the ioctl. I prefer
to avoid this by devising means of event polling in userland program.
By reconsidering the userland GC daemon, I found this is possible
without changing behaviour of the daemon and sacrificing efficiency.

Pekka Enberg pointed out that double error handlings found after
nilfs_transaction_end() can be avoided by separating abort operation:
OK, I don't understand this. The only way nilfs_transaction_end() can
fail is if we have NILFS_TI_SYNC set and we fail to construct the
segment. But why do we want to construct a segment if we don't commit?
I guess what I'm asking is why don't we have a separate
nilfs_transaction_abort() function that can't fail for the erroneous
case to avoid this double error value tracking thing?
This does the separation and renames nilfs_transaction_end() to
nilfs_transaction_commit() for clarification.
Since, some calls of these functions were used just for exclusion control
against the segment constructor, they are replaced with semaphore
operations.

Chris Mason pointed out that there is a missed sync issue in
nilfs_writepages():
On Wed, 17 Dec 2008 21:52:55 -0500, Chris Mason wrote:
> It looks like nilfs_writepage ignores WB_SYNC_NONE, which is used by

where WB_SYNC_NONE in do_sync_mapping_range() was replaced with
WB_SYNC_ALL by Nick's patch (commit:
ee53a891f47444c53318b98dac947ede963db400).
This fixes the problem by letting nilfs_writepages() write out the log of
file data within the range if sync_mode is WB_SYNC_ALL.
This involves removal of nilfs_file_aio_write() which was previously
needed to ensure O_SYNC sync writes.
