619205da5b nilfs2: add ioctl which limits range of segment to be allocated
This adds a new ioctl command which limits range of segment to be
allocated.  This is intended to gather data whithin a range of the
partition before shrinking the filesystem, or to control new log
location for some purpose.

If a range is specified by the ioctl, segment allocator of nilfs tries
to allocate new segments from the range unless no free segments are
available there.

6c6de1aa65 nilfs2: super root size should change depending on inode size
The size of super root structure depends on inode size, so
NILFS_SR_BYTES macro should be a function of the inode size.  This
fixes the issue.

Even though a different size value will be written for a possible
future filesystem with extended inode, but fortunately this does not
break disk format compatibility.

be667377a8 nilfs2: record used amount of each checkpoint in checkpoint list
This records the number of used blocks per checkpoint in each
checkpoint entry of cpfile.  Even though userland tools can get the
block count via nilfs_get_cpinfo ioctl, it was not updated by the
nilfs2 kernel code.  This fixes the issue and makes it available for
userland tools to calculate used amount per checkpoint.

ae191838b0 nilfs2: optimize rec_len functions
This is a similar change to those in ext2/ext3 codebase (commit
40a063f669 and a4ae309486, respectively).

The addition of 64k block capability in the rec_len_from_disk and
rec_len_to_disk functions added a bit of math overhead which slows
down file create workloads needlessly when the architecture cannot
even support 64k blocks.  This will cut the corner.

c486f3895d nilfs2: change license of exported header file
This allows other projects to carry copies of the header file related
to ABI and disk format (i.e. "nilfs2_fs.h") without it or distributors
having to worry about effects on the project's overall license terms.
It's also desired for switching the license of nilfs library to LGPL.

Jiro SEKIBA pointed out these license issues (Message-ID:
<87tylo7msw.wl%jir@sekiba.com>), and he suggested switching license of
the library and nilfs2_fs.h to GNU Lesser General Public License.  We
take in his suggestion to avoid the license issues.

6c43f41000 nilfs2: keep zero value in i_cno except for gc-inodes
On-memory inode structures of nilfs have a member "i_cno" which stores
a checkpoint number related to the inode.  For gc-inodes, this field
indicates version of data each gc-inode caches for GC.  Log writer
temporarily uses "i_cno" to transfer the latest checkpoint number.

This stops the latter use and lets only gc-inodes use it.

The purpose of this patch is to allow the successive change use
"i_cno" for inode lookup.

9566a7a851 nilfs2: accept future revisions
Compatibility of nilfs partitions is now managed with three feature
sets.  This changes old compatibility check with revision number so
that it can accept future revisions.

Note that we can stop support of experimental versions of nilfs that
doesn't know the feature sets by incrementing NILFS_CURRENT_REV.  We
don't have to do it soon, but it would be a possible option whenever
the need arises.

89c0fd014d nilfs2: reject filesystem with unsupported block size
This inserts sanity check that refuses to mount a filesystem with
unsupported block size.

Previously, kernel code of nilfs was looking only limitation of
devices though mkfs.nilfs2 limits the range of block sizes; there was
no check that prevents rec_len overflow with larger block sizes.

With this change, block sizes larger than 64KB or smaller than 1KB
will get rejected explicitly by kernel.

6cda9fa257 nilfs2: avoid rec_len overflow with 64KB block size
With 64KB blocksize, a directory entry can have size 64KB which does
not fit into 16 bits we have for entry length.  So this patch stores
0xffff instead and converts value when read from / written to disk.

Nilfs derives its directory implementation from ext2 filesystem, and
this draws upon the corresponding change on ext2.

1a80a1763f nilfs2: add feature set fields to super block
This adds three new fields to nilfs_super_block structure, compatible
feature set, readonly-compatible feature set, and incompatible feature
set in order to prepare for future disk format modifications.

The role of these fields conforms to those of ext3 or other
filesystems.  Most important flags are the incompatible feature set;
it is used to refuse to mount the filesystem which sets an
incompatible feature the kernel doesn't know about.

400ade845c nilfs2: enlarge s_volume_name member in nilfs_super_block
Current s_volume_name has 16 bytes, which is too small as modern filesystem.

s_last_mounted resides just after s_volume_name and has 64 bytes.

s_last_mounted is historically came from ext2, but not used in nilfs2 at all.
Deleting s_last_mounted member and merging that space with s_volume_name
enlarge s_volume_name upto 80 bytes for volume label.

When user land tools see the old header for new disk, it will just ignore
additional bytes stored in s_last_mounted.  While, old disk format has only
16 bytes label, it doesn't affects in case seeing the new header for old disk.

0234576d04 nilfs2: add norecovery mount option
This adds "norecovery" mount option which disables temporal write
access to read-only mounts or snapshots during mount/recovery.
Without this option, write access will be even performed for those
types of mounts; the temporal write access is needed to mount root
file system read-only after an unclean shutdown.

This option will be helpful when user wants to prevent any write
access to the device.

612392307c nilfs2: support nanosecond timestamp
After a review of user's feedback for finding out other compatibility
issues, I found nilfs improperly initializes timestamps in inode;
CURRENT_TIME was used there instead of CURRENT_TIME_SEC even though nilfs
didn't have nanosecond timestamps on disk.  A few users gave us the report
that the tar program sometimes failed to expand symbolic links on nilfs,
and it turned out to be the cause.

Instead of applying the above displacement, I've decided to support
nanosecond timestamps on this occation.  Fortunetaly, a needless 64-bit
field was in the nilfs_inode struct, and I found it's available for this
purpose without impact for the users.

So, this will do the enhancement and resolve the tar problem.

e339ad31f5 nilfs2: introduce secondary super block
The former versions didn't have extra super blocks.  This improves the
weak point by introducing another super block at unused region in tail of
the partition.

This doesn't break disk format compatibility; older versions just ingore
the secondary super block, and new versions just recover it if it doesn't
exist.  The partition created by an old mkfs may not have unused region,
but in that case, the secondary super block will not be added.

This doesn't make more redundant copies of the super block; it is a future
work.

c96fa464a5 nilfs2: mark minor flag for checkpoint created by internal operation
Nilfs creates checkpoints even for garbage collection or metadata updates
such as checkpoint mode change.  So, user often sees checkpoints created
only by such internal operations.

This is inconvenient in some situations.  For example, application that
monitors checkpoints and changes them to snapshots, will fall into an
infinite loop because it cannot distinguish internally created
checkpoints.

This patch solves this sort of problem by adding a flag to checkpoint for
identification.

458c5b0822 nilfs2: clean up sketch file
The sketch file is a file to mark checkpoints with user data.  It was
experimentally introduced in the original implementation, and now
obsolete.  The file was handled differently with regular files; the file
size got truncated when a checkpoint was created.

This stops the special treatment and will treat it as a regular file.
Most users are not affected because mkfs.nilfs2 no longer makes this file.

2c2e52fc4f nilfs2: extend nilfs_sustat ioctl struct
This adds a new argument to the nilfs_sustat structure.

The extended field allows to delete volatile active state of segments,
which was needed to protect freshly-created segments from garbage
collection but has confused code dealing with segments.  This
extension alleviates the mess and gives room for further
simplifications.

The volatile active flag is not persistent, so it's eliminable on this
occasion without affecting compatibility other than the ioctl change.

dc498d09be nilfs2: use fixed sized types for ioctl structures
Nilfs ioctl had structures not having fixed sized types such as:

  struct nilfs_argv {
         void *v_base;
         size_t v_nmembs;
         size_t v_size;
         int v_index;
         int v_flags;
  };

Further, some of them are wrongly aligned:

  e.g.

  struct nilfs_cpmode {
        __u64 cm_cno;
        int cm_mode;
  };

The size of wrongly aligned structures varies depending on
architectures, and it breaks the identity of ioctl commands, which
leads to arch dependent errors.

Previously, these are compensated by using compat_ioctl.

This fixes these problems and allows removal of compat ioctl.

Since this will change sizes of those structures, binary compatibility
for the past utilities will once break; new utilities have to be used
instead.  However, it would be helpful to avoid platform dependent
problems in the long term.
