f2fs: fix readdir incorrectness

2013-07-08T09:35:48+00:00

In the previous Al Viro's readdir patch set, there occurs a bug when
running
xfstest: 006 as follows.

[Error output]
alpha size = 4, name length = 6, total files = 4096, nproc=1
1023 files created
rm: cannot remove `/mnt/f2fs/permname.15150/a': Directory not empty

[Correct output]
alpha size = 4, name length = 6, total files = 4096, nproc=1
4097 files created

This bug is due to the misupdate of directory position in ctx.
So, this patch fixes this.

[AV: fixed a braino]

f2fs: recover wrong pino after checkpoint during fsync

2013-06-14T00:04:45+00:00

If a file is linked, f2fs loose its parent inode number so that fsync calls
for the linked file should do checkpoint all the time.
But, if we can recover its parent inode number after the checkpoint, we can
adjust roll-forward mechanism for the further fsync calls, which is able to
improve the fsync performance significatly.

f2fs: sync dir->i_size with its block allocation

2013-06-11T23:18:35+00:00

If new dentry block is allocated and its i_size is updated, we should update
its inode block together in order to sync i_size and its block allocation.
Otherwise, we can loose additional dentry block due to the unconsistent i_size.

Errorneous Scenario
-------------------

In the recovery routine,
 - recovery_dentry
 | - __f2fs_add_link
 | | - get_new_data_page
 | | | - i_size_write(new_i_size)
 | | | - mark_inode_dirty_sync(dir)
 | | - update_parent_metadata
 | | | - mark_inode_dirty(dir)
 |
 - write_checkpoint
   - sync_dirty_dir_inodes
     - filemap_flush(dentry_blocks)
       - f2fs_write_data_page
         - skip to write the last dentry block due to index < i_size

In the above flow, new_i_size is not updated to its inode block so that the
last dentry block will be lost accordingly.

f2fs: support xattr security labels

2013-06-11T07:01:03+00:00

This patch adds the support of security labels for f2fs, which will be used
by Linus Security Models (LSMs).

Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Security_Modules:
"Linux Security Modules (LSM) is a framework that allows the Linux kernel to
support a variety of computer security models while avoiding favoritism toward
any single security implementation. The framework is licensed under the terms of
the GNU General Public License and is standard part of the Linux kernel since
Linux 2.6. AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO Linux are the currently accepted
modules in the official kernel.".

f2fs: cover cp_file information with ilock

2013-05-28T06:03:06+00:00

If a file is linked with other files, it should be checkpointed at every fsync
calls.
For this, we use set_cp_file() with FADVISE_CP_BIT, but previously we didn't
cover the flag by the global lock.
This patch fixes that the inode page stores this correctly.

f2fs: remove unneeded initializations in f2fs_parent_dir

2013-05-28T06:03:05+00:00

There is no need to initialize few pointers in f2fs_parent_dir
as the values are not checked and instead directly initialized
values are used.

f2fs: update inode page after creation

2013-05-28T06:03:02+00:00

I found a bug when testing power-off-recovery as follows.

[Bug Scenario]
1. create a file
2. fsync the file
3. reboot w/o any sync
4. try to recover the file
 - found its fsync mark
 - found its dentry mark
   : try to recover its dentry
    - get its file name
    - get its parent inode number
     : here we got zero value

The reason why we get the wrong parent inode number is that we didn't
synchronize the inode page with its newly created inode information perfectly.

Especially, previous f2fs stores fi->i_pino and writes it to the cached
node page in a wrong order, which incurs the zero-valued i_pino during the
recovery.

So, this patch modifies the creation flow to fix the synchronization order of
inode page with its inode.

f2fs: change get_new_data_page to pass a locked node page

This patch is for passing a locked node page to get_dnode_of_data.
