2011-07-04UBIFS: switch to ubifs_leb_writeArtem Bityutskiy
Stop using 'ubi_leb_write()' directly and switch to the 'ubifs_leb_write()' helper. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: switch to ubifs_leb_readArtem Bityutskiy
Instead of using 'ubi_read()' function directly, used the 'ubifs_leb_read()' helper function instead. This allows to get rid of several redundant error messages and make sure that we always have a stack dump on read errors. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: introduce more I/O helpersArtem Bityutskiy
Introduce the following I/O helper functions: 'ubifs_leb_read()', 'ubifs_leb_write()', 'ubifs_leb_change()', 'ubifs_leb_unmap()', 'ubifs_leb_map()', 'ubifs_is_mapped(). The idea is to wrap all UBI I/O functions in order to encapsulate various assertions and error path handling (error message, stack dump, switching to R/O mode). And there are some other benefits of this which will be used in the following patches. This patch does not switch whole UBIFS to use these functions yet.

2011-07-04UBIFS: always print stacktrace when switching to R/O modeArtem Bityutskiy
When switching to R/O mode due to an I/O error, always dump the stack, not only when debugging is enabled. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: remove unused and unneeded debugging functionArtem Bityutskiy
This patch contains several minor clean-up and preparational cahnges. 1. Remove 'dbg_read()', 'dbg_write()', 'dbg_change()', and 'dbg_leb_erase()' functions as they are not used. 2. Remove 'dbg_leb_read()' and 'dbg_is_mapped()' as they are not really needed, it is fine to let reads go through in failure mode. 3. Rename 'offset' argument to 'offs' to be consistent with the rest of UBIFS code. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: add global debugfs knobsArtem Bityutskiy
Now we have per-FS (superblock) debugfs knobs, but they have one drawback - you have to first mount the FS and only after this you can switch self-checks on/off. But often we want to have the checks enabled during the mount. Introduce global debugging knobs for this purpose. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: introduce debugfs helpersArtem Bityutskiy
Separate out pieces of code from the debugfs file read/write functions and create separate 'interpret_user_input()'/'provide_user_output()' helpers. These helpers will be needed in one of the following patches, so this is just a preparational change. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: re-arrange debugging code a bitArtem Bityutskiy
Move 'dbg_debugfs_init()' and 'dbg_debugfs_exit()' functions which initialize debugfs for whole UBIFS subsystem below the code which initializes debugfs for a particular UBIFS instance. And do the same for 'ubifs_debugging_init()' and 'ubifs_debugging_exit()' functions. This layout is a bit better for the next patches, so this is just a preparation. Also, rename 'open_debugfs_file()' into 'dfs_file_open()' for consistency. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: be more informative in failure modeArtem Bityutskiy
When we are testing UBIFS recovery, it is better to print in which eraseblock we are going to fail. Currently UBIFS prints it only if recovery debugging messages are enabled, but this is not very practical. So change 'dbg_rcvry()' messages to 'ubifs_warn()' messages. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: switch self-check knobs to debugfsArtem Bityutskiy
UBIFS has many built-in self-check functions which can be enabled using the debug_chks module parameter or the corresponding sysfs file (/sys/module/ubifs/parameters/debug_chks). However, this is not flexible enough because it is not per-filesystem. This patch moves this to debugfs interfaces. We already have debugfs support, so this patch just adds more debugfs files. While looking at debugfs support I've noticed that it is racy WRT file-system unmount, and added a TODO entry for that. This problem has been there for long time and it is quite standard debugfs PITA. The plan is to fix this later. This patch is simple, but it is large because it changes many places where we check if a particular type of checks is enabled or disabled. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: lessen amount of debugging check typesArtem Bityutskiy
We have too many different debugging checks - lessen the amount by merging all index-related checks into one. At the same time, move the "force in-the-gap" test to the "index checks" class, because it is too heavy for the "general" class. This patch merges TNC, Old index, and Index size check and calles this just "index checks". Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: introduce helper functions for debugging checks and testsArtem Bityutskiy
This patch introduces helper functions for all debugging checks, so instead of doing if (!(ubifs_chk_flags & UBIFS_CHK_GEN)) we now do if (!dbg_is_chk_gen(c)) This is a preparation to further changes where the flags will go away, and we'll need to only change the helper functions, but the code which utilizes them won't be touched. At the same time this patch removes 'dbg_force_in_the_gaps()', 'dbg_force_in_the_gaps_enabled()', and dbg_failure_mode helpers for consistency. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: amend debugging inode size check function prototypeArtem Bityutskiy
Add 'const struct ubifs_info *c' parameter to 'dbg_check_synced_i_size()' function because we'll need it in the next patch when we switch to debugfs. So this patch is just a preparation. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: amend debugging name check function prototypeArtem Bityutskiy
Add 'struct ubifs_info *c' parameter to the 'dbg_check_name()' debugging function - it will be needed in one of the following commits where we switch to debugfs. So this is just a preparation. Mark parameters as 'const' while on it. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: add few commentaries about TNCArtem Bityutskiy
Add a couple of comments - while looking into TNC I could not easily figure out few facts, so it is a good idea to document them in the code. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: use correct flags in lpropsArtem Bityutskiy
The UBIFS lpt tree is in many aspects similar to the TNC tree, and we have similar flags for these trees. And by mistake we use the COW_ZNODE flag for LPT in some places, instead of the right flag COW_CNODE. And this works only because these two constants have the same value. This patch makes all the LPT code to use COW_CNODE and also changes COW_CNODE constant value to make sure we do not misuse the flags any more. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: harmonize znode flag helpersArtem Bityutskiy
We have 3 znode flags: cow, obsolete, dirty. For the last flag we have a 'ubifs_zn_dirty()' helper function, but for the other 2 flags we use 'test_bit()' directly. This patch makes the situation more consistent and introduces helpers for the other 2 flags: 'ubifs_zn_cow()' and 'ubifs_zn_obsolete()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: remove dead codeArtem Bityutskiy
Remove dead pieces of code under "if (c->min_io_size == 1)" statement - we never execute it because in UBIFS 'c->min_io_size' is always at least 8. This are leftovers from old pre-mainline prototype. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: remove unnecessary bracketsArtem Bityutskiy
Remove unnecessary brackets in "inode->i_flags |= (S_NOCMTIME)" statement to make the code not look silly. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: minor cleanup: use S_ISREG helperArtem Bityutskiy
Instead of using long "(inode->i_mode & S_IFMT) != S_IFREG" expression, use shorted "!S_ISREG(inode->i_mode)". Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: rename dbg_check_dir_size functionArtem Bityutskiy
Since this function is not only about size checking, rename it to 'dbg_check_dir()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: improve inode dumping functionArtem Bityutskiy
Teach 'dbg_dump_inode()' dump directory entries for directory inodes. This requires few additional changes: 1. The 'c' argument of 'dbg_dump_inode()' cannot be const any more. 2. Users of 'dbg_dump_inode()' should not have 'tnc_mutex' locked. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: dump stack when pnode or nnode reading failsArtem Bityutskiy
When we fail to read a pnode or nnode - print stacktrace if debugging is enabled. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: lessen the size of debugging info data structureArtem Bityutskiy
This patch lessens the 'struct ubifs_debug_info' size by 90 bytes by allocating less bytes for the debugfs root directory name. It introduces macros for the name patter an length instead of hard-coding 100 bytes. It also makes UBIFS use 'snprintf()' and teaches it to gracefully catch situations when the name array is too short. Additionally, this patch makes 2 unrelated changes - I just thought they do not deserve separate commits: simplifies 'ubifs_assert()' for non-debugging case and makes 'dbg_debugfs_init()' properly verify debugfs return code which may be an error code or NULL, so we should you 'IS_ERR_OR_NULL()' instead of 'IS_ERR()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-07-04UBIFS: return EROFS in case of broken commitArtem Bityutskiy
If commit failed and it is in broken state, UBIFS switches to R/O mode. Most operations return -EROFS in this case, except of commit which returns -EINVAL. Make it return -EROFS too for consistency. This is also important for our power cut emulation testing. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

On Linux x86_64 host with 32bit userspace, running qemu or even just "qemu-img create -f qcow2 some.img 1G" causes a kernel warning: ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(00005326){t:'S';sz:0} arg(7fffffff) on some.img ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(801c0204){t:02;sz:28} arg(fff77350) on some.img ioctl 00005326 is CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS, ioctl 801c0204 is FDGETPRM.

2011-07-01ptrace: make former thread ID available via PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG after ↵Denys Vlasenko
PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC stop When multithreaded program execs under ptrace, all traced threads report WIFEXITED status, except for thread group leader and the thread which execs. Unless tracer tracks thread group relationship between tracees, which is a nontrivial task, it will not detect that execed thread no longer exists. This patch allows tracer to figure out which thread performed this exec, by requesting PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG in PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC stop. Another, samller problem which is solved by this patch is that tracer now can figure out which of the several concurrent execs in multithreaded program succeeded.

2011-07-01block: flush MEDIA_CHANGE from drivers on close(2)Tejun Heo
Currently, only open(2) is defined as the 'clearing' point. It has two roles - first, it's an acknowledgement from userland indicating that the event has been received and kernel can clear pending states and proceed to generate more events. Secondly, it's passed on to device drivers as a hint indicating that a synchronization point has been reached and it might want to take a deeper look at the device. The latter currently is only used by sr which uses two different mechanisms - GET_EVENT_MEDIA_STATUS_NOTIFICATION and TEST_UNIT_READY to discover events, where the former is lighter weight and safe to be used repeatedly but may not provide full coverage. Among other things, GET_EVENT can't detect media removal while TUR can. This patch makes close(2) - blkdev_put() - indicate clearing hint for MEDIA_CHANGE to drivers. disk_check_events() is renamed to disk_flush_events() and updated to take @mask for events to flush which is or'd to ev->clearing and will be passed to the driver on the next ->check_events() invocation. This change makes sr generate MEDIA_CHANGE when media is ejected from userland - e.g. with eject(1). Note: Given the current usage, it seems @clearing hint is needlessly complex. disk_clear_events() can simply clear all events and the hint can be boolean @flush.

2011-06-28jbd: Use WRITE_SYNC in journal checkpoint.Tao Ma
In journal checkpoint, we write the buffer and wait for its finish. But in cfq, the async queue has a very low priority, and in our test, if there are too many sync queues and every queue is filled up with requests, and the process will hang waiting for the log space. So this patch tries to use WRITE_SYNC in __flush_batch so that the request will be moved into sync queue and handled by cfq timely. We also use the new plug, sot that all the WRITE_SYNC requests can be given as a whole when we unplug it.
