* nilfs2: fix incorrect KERN_CRIT messages in case of write failuresRyusuke Konishi2009-07-051-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case of write-failure retries, the following KERN_CRIT level messages are mistakenly output by nilfs_dat_commit_start() function: nilfs_dat_commit_start: vbn = 408463, start = 12506, end = 18446744073709551615, pbn = 530210 nilfs_dat_commit_start: vbn = 408515, start = 12506, end = 18446744073709551615, pbn = 530211 nilfs_dat_commit_start: vbn = 408464, start = 12506, end = 18446744073709551615, pbn = 530212 ... This suppresses these messages. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp> Cc: stable@kernel.org
* nilfs2: allow future expansion of metadata read out via get info ioctlRyusuke Konishi2009-06-101-10/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nilfs has some ioctl commands to read out metadata from meta data files: - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_CPINFO for checkpoint file, - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_SUINFO for segment usage file, and - NILFS_IOCTL_GET_VINFO for Disk Address Transalation (DAT) file, respectively. Every routine on these metadata files is implemented so that it allows future expansion of on-disk format. But, the above ioctl commands do not support expansion even though nilfs_argv structure can handle arbitrary size for data exchanged via ioctl. This allows future expansion of the following structures which give basic format of the "get information" ioctls: - struct nilfs_cpinfo - struct nilfs_suinfo - struct nilfs_vinfo So, this introduces forward compatility of such ioctl commands. In this patch, a sanity check in nilfs_ioctl_get_info() function is changed to accept larger data structure [1], and metadata read routines are rewritten so that they become compatible for larger structures; the routines will just ignore the remaining fields which the current version of nilfs doesn't know. [1] The ioctl function already has another upper limit (PAGE_SIZE against a structure, which appears in nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy function), and this will not cause security problem.

* nilfs2: replace BUG_ON and BUG calls triggerable from ioctlRyusuke Konishi2009-04-071-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pekka Enberg advised me: > It would be nice if BUG(), BUG_ON(), and panic() calls would be > converted to proper error handling using WARN_ON() calls. The BUG() > call in nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints(), for example, looks to be > triggerable from user-space via the ioctl() system call. This will follow the comment and keep them to a minimum.

* nilfs2: disk address translatorKoji Sato2009-04-071-0/+429
This adds the disk address translation file (DAT) whose primary function is to convert virtual disk block numbers to actual disk block numbers. The virtual block numbers of NILFS are associated with checkpoint generation numbers, and this file also provides functions to manage the lifetime information of each virtual block number.
