2006-05-23[JFFS2] Simplify writebuffer handlingThomas Gleixner
The writev based write buffer implementation was far to complex as in most use cases the write buffer had to be handled anyway. Simplify the write buffer handling and use mtd->write instead. From extensive testing no performance impact has been noted. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2006-05-23[JFFS2] Remove flash offset argument from various functions.David Woodhouse
We don't need the upper layers to deal with the physical offset. It's _always_ c->nextblock->offset + c->sector_size - c->nextblock->free_size so we might as well just let the actual write functions deal with that. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-22[MTD] Introduce MTD_BIT_WRITEABLEJoern Engel
o Add a flag MTD_BIT_WRITEABLE for devices that allow single bits to be cleared. o Replace MTD_PROGRAM_REGIONS with a cleared MTD_BIT_WRITEABLE flag for STMicro and Intel Sibley flashes with internal ECC. Those flashes disallow clearing of single bits, unlike regular NOR flashes, so the new flag models their behaviour better. o Remove MTD_ECC. After the STMicro/Sibley merge, this flag is only set and never checked. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-05-22[MTD] Merge STMicro NOR_ECC code with Intel Sibley codeJoern Engel
In 2002, STMicro started producing NOR flashes with internal ECC protection for small blocks (8 or 16 bytes). Support for those flashes was added by me. In 2005, Intel Sibley flashes copied this strategy and Nico added support for those. Merge the code for both. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-05-22[MTD] Introduce writesizeJoern Engel
At least two flashes exists that have the concept of a minimum write unit, similar to NAND pages, but no other NAND characteristics. Therefore, rename the minimum write unit to "writesize" for all flashes, including NAND. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-05-22[JFFS2] Put list of nodes in common part of ic/x_ref/x_datum structureDavid Woodhouse
We'll be using a proper list of nodes in the jffs2_xattr_datum and jffs2_xattr_ref structures, because the existing code to overwrite them is just broken. Put it in the common part at the front of the structure which is shared with the jffs2_inode_cache, so that the jffs2_link_node_ref() function can do the right thing. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-22[JFFS2] Add some preemptive BUG checks for XATTR codeDavid Woodhouse
In a couple of places, we assume that what's at the end of the ->next_in_ino list is a struct jffs2_inode_cache. Let's check for that, since we expect it to change soon. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-22[JFFS2] Extend jffs2_link_node_ref() to link into per-inode list too.David Woodhouse
Let's avoid the potential for forgetting to set ref->next_in_ino, by doing it within jffs2_link_node_ref() instead. This highlights the ugliness of what we're currently doing with xattr_datum and xattr_ref structures -- we should find a nicer way of dealing with that.

2006-05-22[JFFS2] Fix accounting error in jffs2_link_node_ref()David Woodhouse
When filing REF_OBSOLETE nodes, we'd add their size to the global 'dirty_size' count, but then to the eraseblock's 'used_size' count. That's not clever. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

2006-05-21[PATCH] fix race in inotify_releaseAmy Griffis
While doing some inotify stress testing, I hit the following race. In inotify_release(), it's possible for a watch to be removed from the lists in between dropping dev->mutex and taking inode->inotify_mutex. The reference we hold prevents the watch from being freed, but not from being removed. Checking the dev's idr mapping will prevent a double list_del of the same watch.

2006-05-21[PATCH] binfmt_flat: don't check for EMFILEAndrew Morton
Bernd Schmidt points out that binfmt_flat is now leaving the exec file open while the application runs. This offsets all the application's fd numbers. We should have closed the file within exec(), not at exit()-time. But there doesn't seem to be a lot of point in doing all this just to avoid going over RLIMIT_NOFILE by one fd for a few microseconds. So take the EMFILE checking out again. This will cause binfmt_flat to again fail LTP's exec-should-return-EMFILE-when-fdtable-is-full test. That test appears to be wrong anyway - Open Group specs say nothing about exec() returning EMFILE.

2006-05-21[PATCH] NFS server subtree_check returns dubious valuePeter Staubach
Address a problem found when a Linux NFS server uses the "subtree_check" export option. The "subtree_check" NFS export option was designed to prohibit a client from using a file handle for which it should not have permission. The algorithm used is to ensure that the entire path to the file being referenced is accessible to the user attempting to use the file handle. If some part of the path is not accessible, then the operation is aborted and the appropriate version of ESTALE is returned to the NFS client. The error, ESTALE, is unfortunate in that it causes NFS clients to make certain assumptions about the continued existence of the file. They assume that the file no longer exists and refuse to attempt to access it again. In this case, the file really does exist, but access was denied by the server for a particular user. A better error to return would be an EACCES sort of error. This would inform the client that the particular operation that it was attempting was not allowed, without the nasty side effects of the ESTALE error.

2006-05-21[PATCH] NFS: fix error handling on access_ok in compat_sys_nfsservctlLin Feng Shen
Functions compat_nfs_svc_trans, compat_nfs_clnt_trans, compat_nfs_exp_trans, compat_nfs_getfd_trans and compat_nfs_getfs_trans, which are called by compat_sys_nfsservctl(fs/compat.c), don't handle the return value of access_ok properly. access_ok return 1 when the addr is valid, and 0 when it's not, but these functions have the reversed understanding. When the address is valid, they always return -EFAULT to compat_sys_nfsservctl. An example is to run /usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd(32bit program on Power5). It doesn't function as expected. strace showes that nfsservctl returns -EFAULT. The patch fixes this by correcting the error handling on the return value of access_ok in the five functions.

2006-05-21[JFFS2] Finally eliminate __totlen field from struct jffs2_raw_node_refDavid Woodhouse
Well, almost. We'll actually keep a 'TEST_TOTLEN' macro set for now, and keep doing some paranoia checks to make sure it's all working correctly. But if TEST_TOTLEN is unset, the size of struct jffs2_raw_node_ref drops from 16 bytes to 12 on 32-bit machines. That's a saving of about half a megabyte of memory on the OLPC prototype board, with 125K or so nodes in its 512MiB of flash. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-21[JFFS2] Locking issues in summary write code.David Woodhouse
We can't use jffs2_scan_dirty_space() because it doesn't do any locking; it's only for use at scan time -- hence the 'scan' in the name. Also, don't allocate refs while we have c->erase_completion_lock held. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-21[JFFS2] Remove stray kfree of summary info in XATTR code.David Woodhouse

2006-05-21[JFFS2] File node reference for wasted space when flushing wbufDavid Woodhouse

2006-05-21[JFFS2] Add length argument to jffs2_add_physical_node_ref()David Woodhouse
If __totlen is going away, we need to pass the length in separately. Also stop callers from needlessly setting ref->next_phys to NULL, since that's done for them... and since that'll also be going away soon. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

2006-05-21[JFFS2] Discard remaining free space when filing a dirty block in scan.David Woodhouse
The incoming ref_totlen() calculation is going to rely on the existence of nodes which cover all dirty space. We can't just tweak the accounting data any more; we have to call jffs2_scan_dirty_space() to do it. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-21[JFFS2] Introduce jffs2_scan_dirty_space() function.David Woodhouse
To eliminate the __totlen field from struct jffs2_raw_node_ref, we need to allocate nodes for dirty space instead of just tweaking the accounting data. Introduce jffs2_scan_dirty_space() in preparation for that. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-21[JFFS2] Fix summary handling of unknown but compatible nodes.David Woodhouse
For RWCOMPAT and ROCOMPAT nodes, we should still allow the mount to succeed. Just abandon the summary and fall through to the full scan. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-21[JFFS2] Fix memory leak in scan code; improve comments.David Woodhouse
If we had to allocate extra space for the summary node, we weren't correctly freeing it when jffs2_sum_scan_sumnode() returned nonzero -- which is both the success and the failure case. Only when it returned zero, which means fall through to the full scan, were we correctly freeing the buffer. Document the meaning of those return codes while we're at it. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-21[JFFS2] Correct handling of JFFS2_FEATURE_RWCOMPAT_COPY nodes.David Woodhouse
We should preserve these when we come to garbage collect them, not let them get erased. Use jffs2_garbage_collect_pristine() for this, and make sure the summary code copes -- just refrain from writing a summary for any block which contains a node we don't understand.

2006-05-20[JFFS2] Reduce calls to ref_totlen() in jffs2_mark_node_obsolete()David Woodhouse
We were calling ref_totlen() 18 times. Even before that becomes a real function rather than just a dereference, apparently some compilers still suck anyway. It'll _certainly_ suck after ref_totlen() becomes more complicated, so calculate it once and don't rely on CSE. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-20[JFFS2] Optimise reading of eraseblock summary nodesDavid Woodhouse
This improves the time to mount 512MiB of NAND flash on my OLPC prototype by about 4%. We used to read the last page of the eraseblock twice -- once to find the offset of the summary node, and again to actually _read_ the summary node. Now we read the last page only once, and read more only if we need to. We also don't allocate a new buffer just for the summary code -- we use the buffer which was already allocated for the scan. Better still, if the 'buffer' for the scan is actually just a pointer directly into NOR flash, we use that too, avoiding the memcpy() which we used to do.

2006-05-19[JFFS2] Support new device nodesDavid Woodhouse
Device node major/minor numbers are just stored in the payload of a single data node. Just extend that to 4 bytes and use new_encode_dev() for it. We only use the 4-byte format if we _need_ to, if !old_valid_dev(foo). This preserves backwards compatibility with older code as much as possible. If we do make devices with major or minor numbers above 255, and then mount the file system with the old code, it'll just read the first two bytes and get the numbers wrong. If it comes to garbage-collect it, it'll then write back those wrong numbers. But that's about the best we can expect. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
