jffs2: convert to ctime accessor functions

In later patches, we're going to change how the inode's ctime field is
used. Switch to using accessor functions instead of raw accesses of
inode->i_ctime.

jffs2: correct logic when creating a hole in jffs2_write_begin

Bug description and fix:

1. Write data to a file, say all 1s from offset 0 to 16.

2. Truncate the file to a smaller size, say 8 bytes.

3. Write new bytes (say 2s) from an offset past the original size of the
file, say at offset 20, for 4 bytes. This is supposed to create a "hole"
in the file, meaning that the bytes from offset 8 (where it was truncated
above) up to the new write at offset 20, should all be 0s (zeros).

4. Flush all caches using "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" (or unmount
and remount) the f/s.

5. Check the content of the file. It is wrong. The 1s that used to be
between bytes 9 and 16, before the truncation, have REAPPEARED (they should
be 0s).

We wrote a script and helper C program to reproduce the bug
(reproduce_jffs2_write_begin_issue.sh, write_file.c, and Makefile). We can
make them available to anyone.

The above example is shown when writing a small file within the same first
page. But the bug happens for larger files, as long as steps 1, 2, and 3
above all happen within the same page.

The problem was traced to the jffs2_write_begin code, where it goes into an
'if' statement intended to handle writes past the current EOF (i.e., writes
that may create a hole). The code computes a 'pageofs' that is the floor
of the write position (pos), aligned to the page size boundary. In other
words, 'pageofs' will never be larger than 'pos'. The code then sets the
internal jffs2_raw_inode->isize to the size of max(current inode size,
pageofs) but that is wrong: the new file size should be the 'pos', which is
larger than both the current inode size and pageofs.

Similarly, the code incorrectly sets the internal jffs2_raw_inode->dsize to
the difference between the pageofs minus current inode size; instead it
should be the current pos minus the current inode size. Finally,
inode->i_size was also set incorrectly.

The patch below fixes this bug. The bug was discovered using a new tool
for finding f/s bugs using model checking, called MCFS (Model Checking File
Systems).

# cac2f8b8 22-Sep-2022 Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>

fs: rename current get acl method

The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic
xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to
interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to
userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to
understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of
making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are
building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode
operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths
easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1].

The current inode operation for getting posix acls takes an inode
argument but various filesystems (e.g., 9p, cifs, overlayfs) need access
to the dentry. In contrast to the ->set_acl() inode operation we cannot
simply extend ->get_acl() to take a dentry argument. The ->get_acl()
inode operation is called from:

acl_permission_check()
-> check_acl()
-> get_acl()

which is part of generic_permission() which in turn is part of
inode_permission(). Both generic_permission() and inode_permission() are
called in the ->permission() handler of various filesystems (e.g.,
overlayfs). So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would
amount to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We
should avoid this unnecessary change.

So instead of extending the existing inode operation rename it from
->get_acl() to ->get_inode_acl() and add a ->get_acl() method later that
passes a dentry argument and which filesystems that need access to the
dentry can implement instead of ->get_inode_acl(). Filesystems like cifs
which allow setting and getting posix acls but not using them for
permission checking during lookup can simply not implement
->get_inode_acl().

This is intended to be a non-functional change.

fs: Change the type of filler_t

By making filler_t the same as read_folio, we can use the same function
for both in gfs2. We can push the use of folios down one more level
in jffs2 and nfs. We also increase type safety for future users of the
various read_cache_page() family of functions by forcing the parameter
to be a pointer to struct file (or NULL).

jffs2: GC deadlock reading a page that is used in jffs2_write_begin()

GC task can deadlock in read_cache_page() because it may attempt
to release a page that is actually allocated by another task in
jffs2_write_begin().
The reason is that in jffs2_write_begin() there is a small window
a cache page is allocated for use but not set Uptodate yet.

This ends up with a deadlock between two tasks:
1) A task (e.g. file copy)
- jffs2_write_begin() locks a cache page
- jffs2_write_end() tries to lock "alloc_sem" from
jffs2_reserve_space() <-- STUCK
2) GC task (jffs2_gcd_mtd3)
- jffs2_garbage_collect_pass() locks "alloc_sem"
- try to lock the same cache page in read_cache_page() <-- STUCK

So to avoid this deadlock, hold "alloc_sem" in jffs2_write_begin()
while reading data in a cache page.

jffs2: Hook up splice_write callback

overlayfs using jffs2 as the upper filesystem would fail in some cases
since moving to v5.10. The test case used was to run 'touch' on a file
that exists in the lower fs, causing the modification time to be
updated. It returns EINVAL when the bug is triggered.

A bisection showed this was introduced in v5.9-rc1, with commit
36e2c7421f02 ("fs: don't allow splice read/write without explicit ops").
Reverting that commit restores the expected behaviour.

Some digging showed that this was due to jffs2 lacking an implementation
of splice_write. (For unknown reasons the warn_unsupported that should
trigger was not displaying any output).

Adding this patch resolved the issue and the test now passes.

jffs2: use 64-bit intermediate timestamps

The VFS now uses timespec64 timestamps consistently, but jffs2 still
converts them to 32-bit numbers on the storage medium. As the helper
functions for the conversion (get_seconds() and timespec_to_timespec64())
are now deprecated, let's change them over to the more modern
replacements.

This keeps the traditional interpretation of those values, where
the on-disk 32-bit numbers are taken to be negative numbers, i.e.
dates before 1970, on 32-bit machines, but future numbers past 2038
on 64-bit machines.

vfs: change inode times to use struct timespec64

struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Transition vfs to use
y2038 safe struct timespec64 instead.

The change was made with the help of the following cocinelle
script. This catches about 80% of the changes.
All the header file and logic changes are included in the
first 5 rules. The rest are trivial substitutions.
I avoid changing any of the function signatures or any other
filesystem specific data structures to keep the patch simple
for review.

The script can be a little shorter by combining different cases.
But, this version was sufficient for my usecase.

# 3b49c9a1 07-Jul-2017 Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>

fs: convert a pile of fsync routines to errseq_t based reporting

This patch converts most of the in-kernel filesystems that do writeback
out of the pagecache to report errors using the errseq_t-based
infrastructure that was recently added. This allows them to report
errors once for each open file description.

Most filesystems have a fairly straightforward fsync operation. They
call filemap_write_and_wait_range to write back all of the data and
wait on it, and then (sometimes) sync out the metadata.

For those filesystems this is a straightforward conversion from calling
filemap_write_and_wait_range in their fsync operation to calling
file_write_and_wait_range.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

- page_cache_get() -> get_page();

- page_cache_release() -> put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Revert "jffs2: Fix lock acquisition order bug in jffs2_write_begin"

This reverts commit 5ffd3412ae55
("jffs2: Fix lock acquisition order bug in jffs2_write_begin").

The commit modified jffs2_write_begin() to remove a deadlock with
jffs2_garbage_collect_live(), but this introduced new deadlocks found
by multiple users. page_lock() actually has to be called before
mutex_lock(&c->alloc_sem) or mutex_lock(&f->sem) because
jffs2_write_end() and jffs2_readpage() are called with the page locked,
and they acquire c->alloc_sem and f->sem, resp.

In other words, the lock order in jffs2_write_begin() was correct, and
it is the jffs2_garbage_collect_live() path that has to be changed.

Revert the commit to get rid of the new deadlocks, and to clear the way
for a better fix of the original deadlock.

jffs2: Fix lock acquisition order bug in jffs2_write_begin

jffs2_write_begin() first acquires the page lock, then f->sem. This
causes an AB-BA deadlock with jffs2_garbage_collect_live(), which first
acquires f->sem, then the page lock:

jffs2_garbage_collect_live
mutex_lock(&f->sem) (A)
jffs2_garbage_collect_dnode
jffs2_gc_fetch_page
read_cache_page_async
do_read_cache_page
lock_page(page) (B)

jffs2_write_begin
grab_cache_page_write_begin
find_lock_page
lock_page(page) (B)
mutex_lock(&f->sem) (A)

We fix this by restructuring jffs2_write_begin() to take f->sem before
the page lock. However, we make sure that f->sem is not held when
calling jffs2_reserve_space(), as this is not permitted by the locking
rules.

The deadlock above was observed multiple times on an SoC with a dual
ARMv7 (Cortex-A9), running the long-term 3.4.11 kernel; it occurred
when using scp to copy files from a host system to the ARM target
system. The fix was heavily tested on the same target system.

# 5a0e3ad6 24-Mar-2010 Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.

2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix

With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.

The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.

Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).

This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

JFFS2 Fix of panics caused by wrong condition for hole frag creation in write_begin

This fixes a regression introduced in commit
205c109a7a96d9a3d8ffe64c4068b70811fef5e8 when switching to
write_begin/write_end operations in JFFS2.

The page offset is miscalculated, leading to corruption of the fragment
lists and subsequently to memory corruption and panics.

[ Side note: the bug is a fairly direct result of the naming. Nick was
likely misled by the use of "offs", since we tend to use the notion of
"offset" not as an absolute position, but as an offset _within_ a page
or allocation.

Alternatively, a "pgoff_t" is a page index, but not a byte offset -
our VM naming can be a bit confusing.

So in this case, a VM person would likely have called this a "pos",
not an "offs", or perhaps talked about byte offsets rather than page
offsets (since it's counted in bytes, not pages). - Linus ]

[JFFS2] Reduce excessive node count for syslog files.

We currently get fairly poor behaviour with files which get many short
writes, such as system logs. This is because we end up with many tiny
data nodes, and the rbtree gets massive. None of these nodes are
actually obsolete, so they are counted as 'clean' space. Eraseblocks can
be entirely full of these nodes (which are REF_NORMAL instead of
REF_PRISTINE), and still they count entirely towards 'used_size' and the
eraseblocks can sit on the clean_list for a long time without being
picked for GC.

One way to alleviate this in the long term is to account REF_NORMAL
space separately from REF_PRISTINE space, rather than counting them both
towards used_size. Then these eraseblocks can be picked for GC and the
offending nodes will be garbage collected.

The short-term fix, though -- which probably makes sense even if we do
eventually implement the above -- is to merge these nodes as they're
written. When we write the last byte in a page, write the _whole_ page.
This obsoletes the earlier nodes in the page _immediately_ and we don't
even need to wait for the garbage collection to do it.

In addition, some bugs are fixed.
- A potential race condition was fixed.
- Unexpected fail when updating a xattr by same name/value pair was fixed.
- A bug when removing xattr name/value pair was fixed.

The fundamental structures (such as using two new nodetypes and exclusion
mechanism by rwsem) are unchanged. But most of implementation were reviewed
and updated if necessary.
Espacially, we had to change several internal implementations related to
load_xattr_datum() to avoid a potential race condition.

[JFFS2] Return 0, not number of bytes written, for success at commit_write

Some callers to block-layer commit_write function treat non-zero return as
error, notably the loopback mount driver sometimes used in conjunction with
JFFS2 on NAND flash for bad block avoidance, etc. Return zero for success
as do various other commit_write functions.

[JFFS2] Add erase block summary support (mount time improvement)

The goal of summary is to speed up the mount time. Erase block summary (EBS)
stores summary information at the end of every (closed) erase block. It is
no longer necessary to scan all nodes separetly (and read all pages of them)
just read this "small" summary, where every information is stored which is
needed at mount time.

This summary information is stored in a JFFS2_FEATURE_RWCOMPAT_DELETE. During
the mount process if there is no summary info the orignal scan process will
be executed. EBS works with NAND and NOR flashes, too.

There is a user space tool called sumtool to generate this summary
information for a JFFS2 image.

[PATCH] jffs/jffs2: remove wrong function prototypes

This patch removes prototypes for the generic_file_open and
generic_file_llseek functions.

Besides being superfluous because they are already present in fs.h, they
were also wrong because the actual functions aren't weak functions.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
