<title>quota: Switch -&gt;get_dqblk() and -&gt;set_dqblk() to use bytes as space units</title>

<id>14bf61ffe6ac54afcd1e888a4407fe16054483db</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently -&gt;get_dqblk() and -&gt;set_dqblk() use struct fs_disk_quota which
tracks space limits and usage in 512-byte blocks. However VFS quotas
track usage in bytes (as some filesystems require that) and we need to
somehow pass this information. Upto now it wasn't a problem because we
didn't do any unit conversion (thus VFS quota routines happily stuck
number of bytes into d_bcount field of struct fd_disk_quota). Only if
you tried to use Q_XGETQUOTA or Q_XSETQLIM for VFS quotas (or Q_GETQUOTA
/ Q_SETQUOTA for XFS quotas), you got bogus results. Hardly anyone
tried this but reportedly some Samba users hit the problem in practice.
So when we want interfaces compatible we need to fix this.

We bite the bullet and define another quota structure used for passing
information from/to -&gt;get_dqblk()/-&gt;set_dqblk. It's somewhat sad we have
to have more conversion routines in fs/quota/quota.c and another copying
of quota structure slows down getting of quota information by about 2%
but it seems cleaner than overloading e.g. units of d_bcount to bytes.

Pull VFS changes from Al Viro:
 "First pile out of several (there _definitely_ will be more).  Stuff in
  this one:

   - unification of d_splice_alias()/d_materialize_unique()

   - iov_iter rewrite

   - killing a bunch of -&gt;f_path.dentry users (and f_dentry macro).

     Getting that completed will make life much simpler for
     unionmount/overlayfs, since then we'll be able to limit the places
     sensitive to file _dentry_ to reasonably few.  Which allows to have
     file_inode(file) pointing to inode in a covered layer, with dentry
     pointing to (negative) dentry in union one.

     Still not complete, but much closer now.

   - crapectomy in lustre (dead code removal, mostly)

   - "let's make seq_printf return nothing" preparations

   - assorted cleanups and fixes

  There _definitely_ will be more piles"

  copy_from_iter_nocache()

vfree() is allowed under spinlock these days, but it's cheaper when
it doesn't step into deferred case and here it's very easy to avoid.

dentry is always hashed and negative, inode - non-error, non-NULL and
non-directory.  In such conditions d_splice_alias() is equivalent to
"d_instantiate(dentry, inode) and return NULL", which simplifies the
downstream code and is consistent with the "have to create a new object"
case.
