2012-03-22btrfs: Go readonly on bad extent refs in update_ref_for_cow()Mark Fasheh
update_ref_for_cow() will BUG_ON() after it's call to btrfs_lookup_extent_info() if no existing references are found. Since refs are computed directly from disk, this should be treated as a corruption instead of a logic error. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.de>
2012-03-22btrfs: Don't BUG_ON errors in __finish_chunk_alloc()Mark Fasheh
All callers of __finish_chunk_alloc() BUG_ON() return value, so it's trivial for us to always bubble up any errors caught in __finish_chunk_alloc() to be caught there. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.de>
2012-03-22btrfs: Don't BUG_ON kzalloc error in btrfs_lookup_csums_range()Mark Fasheh
Unfortunately it isn't enough to just exit here - the kzalloc() happens in a loop and the allocated items are added to a linked list whose head is passed in from the caller. To fix the BUG_ON() and also provide the semantic that the list passed in is only modified on success, I create function-local temporary list that we add items too. If no error is met, that list is spliced to the callers at the end of the function. Otherwise the list will be walked and all items freed before the error value is returned. I did a simple test on this patch by forcing an error at the kzalloc() point and verifying that when this hits (git clone seemed to exercise this), the function throws the proper error. Unfortunately but predictably, we later hit a BUG_ON(ret) type line that still hasn't been fixed up ;) Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2012-03-22btrfs: Don't BUG_ON() errors in update_ref_for_cow()Mark Fasheh
The only caller of update_ref_for_cow() is __btrfs_cow_block() which was originally ignoring any return values. update_ref_for_cow() however doesn't look like a candidate to become a void function - there are a few places where errors can occur. So instead I changed update_ref_for_cow() to bubble all errors up (instead of BUG_ON). __btrfs_cow_block() was then updated to catch and BUG_ON() any errors from update_ref_for_cow(). The end effect is that we have no change in behavior, but about 8 different places where a BUG_ON(ret) was removed. Obviously a future patch will have to address the BUG_ON() in __btrfs_cow_block().

2012-03-22btrfs: Don't BUG_ON errors from btrfs_create_subvol_root()Mark Fasheh
This is called from only one place - create_subvol() which passes errors safely back out to it's caller, btrfs_mksubvol where they are handled. Additionally, btrfs_create_subvol_root() itself bug's needlessly from error return of btrfs_update_inode(). Since create_subvol() was fixed to catch errors we can bubble this one up too.

2012-03-22btrfs: btrfs_drop_snapshot should return intJeff Mahoney
Commit cb1b69f4 (Btrfs: forced readonly when btrfs_drop_snapshot() fails) made btrfs_drop_snapshot return void because there were no callers checking the return value. That is the wrong order to handle error propogation since the caller will have no idea that an error has occured and continue on as if nothing went wrong. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>

2012-03-22btrfs: ->submit_bio_hook error push-upJeff Mahoney
This pushes failures from the submit_bio_hook callbacks, btrfs_submit_bio_hook and btree_submit_bio_hook into the callers, including callers of submit_one_bio where it catches the failures with BUG_ON. It also pushes up through the ->readpage_io_failed_hook to end_bio_extent_writepage where the error is already caught with BUG_ON. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>
2012-03-22btrfs: Factor out tree->ops->merge_bio_hook callJeff Mahoney
In submit_extent_page, there's a visually noisy if statement that, in the midst of other conditions, does the tree dependency for tree->ops and tree->ops->merge_bio_hook before calling it, and then another condition afterwards. If an error is returned from merge_bio_hook, there's no way to catch it. It's considered a routine "1" return value instead of a failure. This patch factors out the dependency check into a new local merge_bio routine and BUG's on an error. The if statement is less noisy as a side- effect. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>
2012-03-22btrfs: Simplify btrfs_submit_bio_hookJeff Mahoney
btrfs_submit_bio_hook currently calls btrfs_bio_wq_end_io in either case of an if statement that determines one of the arguments. This patch moves the function call outside of the if statement and uses it to only determine the different argument. This allows us to catch an error in one place in a more visually obvious way.

return void The only error condition in clean_tree_block is an accounting bug. Returning without modifying dirty_metadata_bytes and as if the cleaning as been performed may cause problems later so it should panic instead.

Correctness fix: The kfree calls in the add_delayed_* functions free the node that's passed into it, but the node is a member of another structure. It works because it's always the first member of the containing structure, but it should really be using the containing structure itself. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>

2012-03-22btrfs: Catch locking failures in {set,clear,convert}_extent_bitJeff Mahoney
The *_state functions can only return 0 or -EEXIST. This patch addresses the cases where those functions returning -EEXIST represent a locking failure. It handles them by panicking with an appropriate error message. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>
2012-03-22btrfs: Add btrfs_panic()Jeff Mahoney
As part of the effort to eliminate BUG_ON as an error handling technique, we need to determine which errors are actual logic errors, which are on-disk corruption, and which are normal runtime errors e.g. -ENOMEM. Annotating these error cases is helpful to understand and report them. This patch adds a btrfs_panic() routine that will either panic or BUG depending on the new -ofatal_errors={panic,bug} mount option. Since there are still so many BUG_ONs, it defaults to BUG for now but I expect that to change once the error handling effort has made significant progress.

2012-03-18Don't limit non-nested epoll pathsJason Baron
Commit 28d82dc1c4ed ("epoll: limit paths") that I did to limit the number of possible wakeup paths in epoll is causing a few applications to longer work (dovecot for one). The original patch is really about limiting the amount of epoll nesting (since epoll fds can be attached to other fds). Thus, we probably can allow an unlimited number of paths of depth 1. My current patch limits it at 1000. And enforce the limits on paths that have a greater depth.

When writing files to afs I sometimes hit a BUG: kernel BUG at fs/afs/rxrpc.c:179! With a backtrace of: afs_free_call afs_make_call afs_fs_store_data afs_vnode_store_data afs_write_back_from_locked_page afs_writepages_region afs_writepages The cause is: ASSERT(skb_queue_empty(&call->rx_queue)); Looking at a tcpdump of the session the abort happens because we are exceeding our disk quota: rx abort fs reply store-data error diskquota exceeded (32) So the abort error is valid.

2012-03-10vfs: Correctly set the dir i_mutex lockdep classTyler Hicks
9a7aa12f3911853a introduced additional logic around setting the i_mutex lockdep class for directory inodes. The idea was that some filesystems may want their own special lockdep class for different directory inodes and calling unlock_new_inode() should not clobber one of those special classes. I believe that the added conditional, around the *negated* return value of lockdep_match_class(), caused directory inodes to be placed in the wrong lockdep class. inode_init_always() sets the i_mutex lockdep class with i_mutex_key for all inodes. If the filesystem did not change the class during inode initialization, then the conditional mentioned above was false and the directory inode was incorrectly left in the non-directory lockdep class. If the filesystem did set a special lockdep class, then the conditional mentioned above was true and that class was clobbered with i_mutex_dir_key. This patch removes the negation from the conditional so that the i_mutex lockdep class is properly set for directory inodes. Special classes are preserved and directory inodes with unmodified classes are set with i_mutex_dir_key.

2012-03-09aio: fix the "too late munmap()" raceAl Viro
Current code has put_ioctx() called asynchronously from aio_fput_routine(); that's done *after* we have killed the request that used to pin ioctx, so there's nothing to stop io_destroy() waiting in wait_for_all_aios() from progressing. As the result, we can end up with async call of put_ioctx() being the last one and possibly happening during exit_mmap() or elf_core_dump(), neither of which expects stray munmap() being done to them... We do need to prevent _freeing_ ioctx until aio_fput_routine() is done with that, but that's all we care about - neither io_destroy() nor exit_aio() will progress past wait_for_all_aios() until aio_fput_routine() does really_put_req(), so the ioctx teardown won't be done until then and we don't care about the contents of ioctx past that point. Since actual freeing of these suckers is RCU-delayed, we don't need to bump ioctx refcount when request goes into list for async removal. All we need is rcu_read_lock held just over the ->ctx_lock-protected area in aio_fput_routine().

It will opportunistically allocate kiocbs, and then trim back the list of iocbs when there is not enough room in the completion ring to hold all of the events. In the case above, what happens is that the pruning back of events ends up freeing up the last active request and the context is marked as dead, so it is thus responsible for waking up waiters. Unfortunately, the code does not check for this condition, so we end up with a hung task.

2012-03-04vfs: move dentry_cmp from <linux/dcache.h> to fs/dcache.cLinus Torvalds
It's only used inside fs/dcache.c, and we're going to play games with it for the word-at-a-time patches. This time we really don't even want to export it, because it really is an internal function to fs/dcache.c, and has been since it was introduced. Having it in that extremely hot header file (it's included in pretty much everything, thanks to <linux/fs.h>) is a disaster for testing different versions, and is utterly pointless. We really should have some kind of header file diet thing, where we figure out which parts of header files are really better off private and only result in more expensive compiles.

2012-03-03Btrfs: fix casting error in scrub reada codeChris Mason
The reada code from scrub was casting down a u64 to an unsigned long so it could insert it into a radix tree. What it really wanted to do was cast down the result of a shift, instead of casting down the u64. The bug resulted in trying to insert our reada struct into the wrong place, which caused soft lockups and other problems. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
