2010-07-25nilfs2: reject filesystem with unsupported block sizeRyusuke Konishi
This inserts sanity check that refuses to mount a filesystem with unsupported block size. Previously, kernel code of nilfs was looking only limitation of devices though mkfs.nilfs2 limits the range of block sizes; there was no check that prevents rec_len overflow with larger block sizes. With this change, block sizes larger than 64KB or smaller than 1KB will get rejected explicitly by kernel. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-07-25nilfs2: avoid rec_len overflow with 64KB block sizeRyusuke Konishi
With 64KB blocksize, a directory entry can have size 64KB which does not fit into 16 bits we have for entry length. So this patch stores 0xffff instead and converts value when read from / written to disk. Nilfs derives its directory implementation from ext2 filesystem, and this draws upon the corresponding change on ext2. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-07-23nilfs2: add feature set fields to super blockRyusuke Konishi
This adds three new fields to nilfs_super_block structure, compatible feature set, readonly-compatible feature set, and incompatible feature set in order to prepare for future disk format modifications. The role of these fields conforms to those of ext3 or other filesystems. Most important flags are the incompatible feature set; it is used to refuse to mount the filesystem which sets an incompatible feature the kernel doesn't know about.

2010-07-23nilfs2: clarify byte offset in super block formatRyusuke Konishi
This inserts comments indicating hexadecimal offset in declaration of nilfs_super_block structure so that people can know offset of its fields without counting from the head. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2010-05-10nilfs2: enlarge s_volume_name member in nilfs_super_blockJiro SEKIBA
Current s_volume_name has 16 bytes, which is too small as modern filesystem. s_last_mounted resides just after s_volume_name and has 64 bytes. s_last_mounted is historically came from ext2, but not used in nilfs2 at all. Deleting s_last_mounted member and merging that space with s_volume_name enlarge s_volume_name upto 80 bytes for volume label. When user land tools see the old header for new disk, it will just ignore additional bytes stored in s_last_mounted. While, old disk format has only 16 bytes label, it doesn't affects in case seeing the new header for old disk.

2010-05-10nilfs2: insert checkpoint number in segment summary headerRyusuke Konishi
This adds a field to record the latest checkpoint number in the nilfs_segment_summary structure. This will help to recover the latest checkpoint number from logs on disk. This field is intended for crucial cases in which super blocks have lost pointer to the latest log. Even though this will change the disk format, both backward and forward compatibility is preserved by a size field prepared in the segment summary header.

2010-02-13nilfs2: issue discard request after cleaning segmentsJiro SEKIBA
This adds a function to send discard requests for given array of segment numbers, and calls the function when garbage collection succeeded. Signed-off-by: Jiro SEKIBA <jir@unicus.jp> Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-11-20nilfs2: add norecovery mount optionRyusuke Konishi
This adds "norecovery" mount option which disables temporal write access to read-only mounts or snapshots during mount/recovery. Without this option, write access will be even performed for those types of mounts; the temporal write access is needed to mount root file system read-only after an unclean shutdown. This option will be helpful when user wants to prevent any write access to the device. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp> Cc: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>
2009-11-20nilfs2: move definition of struct nilfs_btree_nodeJiro SEKIBA
This is a trivial patch to expose struct nilfs_fs_btree_node. The struct should be exposed outside of kernel, for it is disk format. Signed-off-by: Jiro SEKIBA <jir@unicus.jp> Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

2009-04-07nilfs2: support nanosecond timestampRyusuke Konishi
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.

2009-04-07nilfs2: introduce secondary super blockRyusuke Konishi
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.

2009-04-07nilfs2: mark minor flag for checkpoint created by internal operationRyusuke Konishi
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.

2009-04-07nilfs2: clean up sketch fileRyusuke Konishi
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.

2009-04-07nilfs2: extend nilfs_sustat ioctl structRyusuke Konishi
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.

2009-04-07nilfs2: use fixed sized types for ioctl structuresRyusuke Konishi
Nilfs ioctl had structures not having fixed sized types such as: struct nilfs_argv { void *v_base; size_t v_nmembs; size_t v_size; int v_index; int v_flags; }; Further, some of them are wrongly aligned: e.g. struct nilfs_cpmode { __u64 cm_cno; int cm_mode; }; The size of wrongly aligned structures varies depending on architectures, and it breaks the identity of ioctl commands, which leads to arch dependent errors. Previously, these are compensated by using compat_ioctl. This fixes these problems and allows removal of compat ioctl. Since this will change sizes of those structures, binary compatibility for the past utilities will once break; new utilities have to be used instead. However, it would be helpful to avoid platform dependent problems in the long term.

2009-04-07nilfs2: remove timedwait ioctl commandRyusuke Konishi
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.
