ext4: don't set i_flags in EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS

2012-06-10T13:42:11+00:00

commit b22b1f178f6799278d3178d894f37facb2085765 upstream.

Commit 7990696 uses the ext4_{set,clear}_inode_flags() functions to
change the i_flags automatically but fails to remove the error setting
of i_flags.  So we still have the problem of trashing state flags.
Fix this by removing the assignment.

ext4: don't trash state flags in EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS

2012-06-10T13:42:11+00:00

commit 79906964a187c405db72a3abc60eb9b50d804fbc upstream.

In commit 353eb83c we removed i_state_flags with 64-bit longs, But
when handling the EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS ioctl, we replace i_flags
directly, which trashes the state flags which are stored in the high
32-bits of i_flags on 64-bit platforms.  So use the the
ext4_{set,clear}_inode_flags() functions which use atomic bit
manipulation functions instead.

ext4: add missing ext4_resize_end on error paths

2012-01-26T00:13:07+00:00

commit 014a1770371a028d22f364718c805f4216911ecd upstream.

Online resize ioctls 'EXT4_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND' and 'EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD'
call ext4_resize_begin() to check permissions and to set the
EXT4_RESIZING bit lock, they do their work and they must finish with
ext4_resize_end() which calls clear_bit_unlock() to unlock and to
avoid -EBUSY errors for the next resize operations.

This patch adds the missing ext4_resize_end() calls on error paths.

Patch tested.

ext4: add __user decoration to calls of copy_{from,to}_user()

This quiets the sparse noise:

ext4: remove the obsolete/broken EXT4_IOC_WAIT_FOR_READONLY ioctl

2011-10-08T19:56:35+00:00

There are no users of the EXT4_IOC_WAIT_FOR_READONLY ioctl, and it is
also broken.  No one sets the set_ro_timer, no one wakes up us and our
state is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE not RUNNING.  So remove it.

ext4: enforce bigalloc restrictions (e.g., no online resizing, etc.)

2011-09-09T22:36:51+00:00

At least initially if the bigalloc feature is enabled, we will not
support non-extent mapped inodes, online resizing, online defrag, or
the FITRIM ioctl.  This simplifies the initial implementation.

ext4: prevent parallel resizers by atomic bit ops

2011-07-27T01:35:44+00:00

Before this patch, parallel resizers are allowed and protected by a
mutex lock, actually, there is no need to support parallel resizer, so
this patch prevents parallel resizers by atmoic bit ops, like
lock_page() and unlock_page() do.

To do this, the patch removed the mutex lock s_resize_lock from struct
ext4_sb_info and added a unsigned long field named s_resize_flags
which inidicates if there is a resizer.

ext4: add FITRIM to compat_ioctl.

2011-03-21T03:16:58+00:00

FITRIM isn't added in compat_ioctl. So a 32 bit program can't be executed
in a 64 bit platform. Add it in the compat_ioctl.
