* cifs: fix unlinking of rename target when server doesn't support open file ↵Jeff Layton2008-10-231-79/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | renames cifs: fix unlinking of rename target when server doesn't support open file renames The patch to make cifs_rename undoable broke renaming one file on top of another when the server doesn't support busy file renames. Remove the code that uses busy file renames to unlink the target file, and just have it call cifs_unlink. If the rename of the source file fails, then the unlink won't be undoable, but hopefully that's rare enough that it won't be a problem.

* [CIFS] improve setlease handlingSteve French2008-10-235-2/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | fcntl(F_SETLEASE) currently is not exported by cifs (nor by local file systems) so cifs grants leases based on how other local processes have opened the file not by whether the file is cacheable (oplocked). This adds the check to make sure that the file is cacheable on the client before checking whether we can grant the lease locally (generic_setlease). It also adds a mount option for cifs (locallease) if the user wants to override this and try to grant leases even if the server did not grant oplock. Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
* [CIFS] fix saving of resume key before CIFSFindNextJeff Layton2008-10-211-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We recently fixed the cifs readdir code so that it saves the resume key before calling CIFSFindNext. Unfortunately, this assumes that we have just done a CIFSFindFirst (or FindNext) and have resume info to save. This isn't necessarily the case. Fix the code to save resume info if we had to reinitiate the search, and after a FindNext. This fixes connectathon basic test6 against NetApp filers.

* cifs: make cifs_rename handle -EACCES errorsJeff Layton2008-10-201-52/+122
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | cifs: make cifs_rename handle -EACCES errors Some servers seem to return -EACCES when attempting to rename one open file on top of another. Refactor the cifs_rename logic to attempt to rename the target file out of the way in this situation. This also fixes the "unlink_target" logic to be undoable if the subsequent rename fails.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cifs: don't use CREATE_DELETE_ON_CLOSE in cifs_rename_pending_delete CREATE_DELETE_ON_CLOSE apparently has different semantics than when you set the DELETE_ON_CLOSE bit after opening the file. Setting it in the open says "delete this file as soon as this filehandle is closed". That's not what we want for cifs_rename_pending_delete. Don't set this bit in the CreateFlags. Experimentation shows that setting this flag in the SET_FILE_INFO call has no effect. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
* [CIFS] eliminate usage of kthread_stop for cifsdJeff Layton2008-10-161-29/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When cifs_demultiplex_thread was converted to a kthread based kernel thread, great pains were taken to make it so that kthread_stop would be used to bring it down. This just added unnecessary complexity since we needed to use a signal anyway to break out of kernel_recvmsg. Also, cifs_demultiplex_thread does a bit of cleanup as it's exiting, and we need to be certain that this gets done. It's possible for a kthread to exit before its main function is ever run if kthread_stop is called soon after its creation. While I'm not sure that this is a real problem with cifsd now, it could be at some point in the future if cifs_mount is ever changed to bring down the thread quickly. The upshot here is that using kthread_stop to bring down the thread just adds extra complexity with no real benefit. This patch changes the code to use the original method to bring down the thread, but still leaves it so that the thread is actually started with kthread_run.

* [CIFS] Add nodfs mount optionSteve French2008-10-162-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Older samba server (eg. 3.0.24 from Debian etch) don't work correctly, if DFS paths are used. Such server claim that they support DFS, but fail to process some requests with DFS paths. Starting with Linux 2.6.26, the cifs clients starts sending DFS paths in such situations, rendering it unuseable with older samba servers. The nodfs mount options forces a share to be used with non DFS paths, even if the server claims, that it supports it.

* vfs: Use const for kernel parser tableSteven Whitehouse2008-10-1329-34/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble. This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm since then.

Because most of applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(), they don't notice the IO error. It's scary for mission critical systems. On the other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets an IO error in file data blocks, the system will easily become inoperable. So this patch introduces a filesystem option to determine whether it aborts the journal or just call printk() when it gets an IO error in file data. If you mount an ext4 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file data write error. If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't abort, just call printk(). data_err=ignore is the default.

Eventually these buffers will be written-back to the filesystem by pdflush. This means some metadata buffers are written to the filesystem without journaling if the journal aborts. So if both journal abort and system crash happen at the same time, the filesystem would become inconsistent state. Additionally, replaying journaled metadata can overwrite the latest metadata on the filesystem partly. Because, if the journal gets aborted, journaled metadata are preserved and replayed during the next mount not to lose uncheckpointed metadata. This would also break the consistency of the filesystem. This patch prevents original metadata buffers from being dirtied on abort by clearing BH_JBDDirty flag from those buffers. Thus, no metadata buffers are written to the filesystem without journaling.

Otherwise, the filesystem will lose uncheckpointed metadata completely and become inconsistent. To avoid this, we need to keep needs_recovery flag if checkpoint has failed. With this patch, ext4_put_super() detects a checkpointing failure from the return value of journal_destroy(), then it invokes ext4_abort() to make the filesystem read only and keep needs_recovery flag. Errors from jbd2_journal_flush() are also handled by this patch in some places. Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
| * | | jbd2: fix error handling for checkpoint ioHidehiro Kawai2008-10-103-20/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a checkpointing IO fails, current JBD2 code doesn't check the error and continue journaling. This means latest metadata can be lost from both the journal and filesystem. This patch leaves the failed metadata blocks in the journal space and aborts journaling in the case of jbd2_log_do_checkpoint(). To achieve this, we need to do: 1. don't remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list where in the case of __try_to_free_cp_buf() because it may be released or overwritten by a later transaction 2. jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() is the last chance, remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list and abort the journal 3. when checkpointing fails, don't update the journal super block to prevent the journaled contents from being cleaned. For safety, don't update j_tail and j_tail_sequence either 4. when checkpointing fails, notify this error to the ext4 layer so that ext4 don't clear the needs_recovery flag, otherwise the journaled contents are ignored and cleaned in the recovery phase 5. if the recovery fails, keep the needs_recovery flag 6. prevent jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() from being called between __jbd2_journal_drop_transaction() and jbd2_journal_abort() (a possible race issue between jbd2_log_do_checkpoint()s called by jbd2_journal_flush() and __jbd2_log_wait_for_space()) Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

To avoid this, when we failed to write out metadata buffers, abort the journal before writing the commit record. We can also avoid this kind of corruption by using the journal checksum feature because it can detect invalid metadata blocks in the journal and avoid them from being replayed. So we don't need to care about asynchronous commit record writeout with a checksum. Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
