2016-01-04xfs: print name of verifier if it failsEric Sandeen
This adds a name to each buf_ops structure, so that if a verifier fails we can print the type of verifier that failed it. Should be a slight debugging aid, I hope.

2015-10-12xfs: validate metadata LSNs against log on v5 superblocksBrian Foster
Since the onset of v5 superblocks, the LSN of the last modification has been included in a variety of on-disk data structures. This LSN is used to provide log recovery ordering guarantees (e.g., to ensure an older log recovery item is not replayed over a newer target data structure). While this works correctly from the point a filesystem is formatted and mounted, userspace tools have some problematic behaviors that defeat this mechanism. For example, xfs_repair historically zeroes out the log unconditionally (regardless of whether corruption is detected). If this occurs, the LSN of the filesystem is reset and the log is now in a problematic state with respect to on-disk metadata structures that might have a larger LSN. Until either the log catches up to the highest previously used metadata LSN or each affected data structure is modified and written out without incident (which resets the metadata LSN), log recovery is susceptible to filesystem corruption. This problem is ultimately addressed and repaired in the associated userspace tools. The kernel is still responsible to detect the problem and notify the user that something is wrong. Check the superblock LSN at mount time and fail the mount if it is invalid. From that point on, trigger verifier failure on any metadata I/O where an invalid LSN is detected. This results in a filesystem shutdown and guarantees that we do not log metadata changes with invalid LSNs on disk. Since this is a known issue with a known recovery path, present a warning to instruct the user how to recover.

2015-10-12xfs: log local to remote symlink conversions correctly on v5 supersBrian Foster
A local format symlink inode is converted to extent format when an extended attribute is set on an inode as part of the attribute fork creation. This means a block is allocated, the local symlink target name is copied to the block and the block is logged. Currently, xfs_bmap_local_to_extents() handles logging the remote block data based on the size of the data fork prior to the conversion. This is not correct on v5 superblock filesystems, which add an additional header to remote symlink blocks that is nonexistent in local format inodes. As a result, the full length of the remote symlink block content is not logged. This can lead to corruption should a crash occur and log recovery replay this transaction. Since a callout is already used to initialize the new remote symlink block, update the local-to-extents conversion mechanism to make the callout also responsible for logging the block. It is already required to set the log buffer type and format the block appropriately based on the superblock version. This ensures the remote symlink is always logged correctly. Note that xfs_bmap_local_to_extents() is only called for symlinks so there are no other callouts that require modification.

2015-07-29xfs: create new metadata UUID field and incompat flagEric Sandeen
This adds a new superblock field, sb_meta_uuid. If set, along with a new incompat flag, the code will use that field on a V5 filesystem to compare to metadata UUIDs, which allows us to change the user- visible UUID at will. Userspace handles the setting and clearing of the incompat flag as appropriate, as the UUID gets changed; i.e. setting the user-visible UUID back to the original UUID (as stored in the new field) will remove the incompatible feature flag. If the incompat flag is not set, this copies the user-visible UUID into into the meta_uuid slot in memory when the superblock is read from disk; the meta_uuid field is not written back to disk in this case. The remainder of this patch simply switches verifiers, initializers, etc to use the new sb_meta_uuid field.

2015-01-21xfs: set buf types when converting extent formatsDave Chinner
Conversion from local to extent format does not set the buffer type correctly on the new extent buffer when a symlink data is moved out of line. Fix the symlink code and leave a comment in the generic bmap code reminding us that the format-specific data copy needs to set the destination buffer type appropriately. cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.10 to current Tested-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Foster <bfoster@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>

Convert all the errors the core XFs code to negative error signs like the rest of the kernel and remove all the sign conversion we do in the interface layers. Errors for conversion (and comparison) found via searches like: $ git grep " E" fs/xfs $ git grep "return E" fs/xfs $ git grep " E[A-Z].*;$" fs/xfs Negation points found via searches like: $ git grep "= -[a-z,A-Z]" fs/xfs $ git grep "return -[a-z,A-D,F-Z]" fs/xfs $ git grep " -[a-z].*;" fs/xfs [ with some bits I missed from Brian Foster ] Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Foster <bfoster@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>
