Andrew,
Could you please review this patch, you probably are the right guy to
take it, because it crosses fs and net trees.
Note : /proc/sys/fs/file-nr is a read-only file, so this patch doesnt
depend on previous patch (sysctl: fix min/max handling in
__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax())
Thanks !
[PATCH V4] fs: allow for more than 2^31 files
Robin Holt tried to boot a 16TB system and found af_unix was overflowing
a 32bit value :
<quote>
We were seeing a failure which prevented boot. The kernel was incapable
of creating either a named pipe or unix domain socket. This comes down
to a common kernel function called unix_create1() which does:
atomic_inc(&unix_nr_socks);
if (atomic_read(&unix_nr_socks) > 2 * get_max_files())
goto out;
The function get_max_files() is a simple return of files_stat.max_files.
files_stat.max_files is a signed integer and is computed in
fs/file_table.c's files_init().
n = (mempages * (PAGE_SIZE / 1024)) / 10;
files_stat.max_files = n;
In our case, mempages (total_ram_pages) is approx 3,758,096,384
(0xe0000000). That leaves max_files at approximately 1,503,238,553.
This causes 2 * get_max_files() to integer overflow.
</quote>
Fix is to let /proc/sys/fs/file-nr & /proc/sys/fs/file-max use long
integers, and change af_unix to use an atomic_long_t instead of
atomic_t.
get_max_files() is changed to return an unsigned long.
get_nr_files() is changed to return a long.
unix_nr_socks is changed from atomic_t to atomic_long_t, while not
strictly needed to address Robin problem.
Before patch (on a 64bit kernel) :
# echo 2147483648 >/proc/sys/fs/file-max
# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
-18446744071562067968
After patch:
# echo 2147483648 >/proc/sys/fs/file-max
# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
2147483648
# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr

exofs_new_inode() was incrementing the inode->i_count and
decrementing it in create_done(), in a bad attempt to make sure
the inode will still be there when the asynchronous create_done()
finally arrives. This was very stupid because iput() was not called,
and if it was actually needed, it would leak the inode.
However all this is not needed, because at exofs_evict_inode()
we already wait for create_done() by waiting for the
object_created event. Therefore remove the superfluous ref counting
and just Thicken the comment at exofs_evict_inode() a bit.
While at it change places that open coded wait_obj_created()
to call the already available wrapper.

Sladby points out that the tty structure we're using may already be
gone, and Al Viro doesn't hold back in complaining about the random
loading of 'filp->private_data' which doesn't have to be a pointer at
all, nor does checking the magic field for TTY_MAGIC prove anything.
Belated review by Al:
"a) global variable depending on stdin of the last opener? Affecting
output of read(2)? Really?
b) iterator is broken; list should be locked in ->start(), unlocked in
->stop() and *NOT* unlocked/relocked in ->next()
c) ->show() ought to do nothing in case of ->device == NULL, instead
of skipping those in ->next()/->start()
d) regardless of the merits of the bright idea about asterisk at that
line in output *and* regardless of (a), the implementation is not
only atrociously ugly, it's actually very likely to be a roothole.
Verifying that Cthulhu knows what number happens to be address of a
tty_struct by blindly dereferencing memory at that address...
Ouch.
Please revert that crap."
And Christoph pipes in and NAK's the approach of walking fd tables etc
too. So it's pretty unanimous.

During garbage collection (GC), DAT file, which converts virtual block
number to real block number, may return disk block number that is not
yet written to the device.
To avoid access to unwritten blocks, the current implementation stores
changes to the caches of GCDAT during GC and atomically commit the
changes into the DAT file after they are written to the device.
This patch, instead, adds a function that makes a copy of specified
buffer and stores it in nilfs_shadow_map, and a function to get the
backup copy as needed (nilfs_mdt_freeze_buffer and
nilfs_mdt_get_frozen_buffer respectively).
Before DAT changes block number in an entry block, it makes a copy and
redirect access to the buffer so that address conversion function
(i.e. nilfs_dat_translate) refers to the old address saved in the
copy.
This patch gives requisites for such redirection.

This adds optional function to metadata files which makes a copy of
bmap, page caches, and b-tree node cache, and rolls back to the copy
as needed.
This enhancement is intended to displace gcdat inode that provides a
similar function in a different way.
In this patch, nilfs_shadow_map structure is added to store a copy of
the foregoing states. nilfs_mdt_setup_shadow_map relates this
structure to a metadata file. And, nilfs_mdt_save_to_shadow_map() and
nilfs_mdt_restore_from_shadow_map() provides save and restore
functions respectively. Finally, nilfs_mdt_clear_shadow_map() clears
states of nilfs_shadow_map.
The copy of b-tree node cache and page cache is made by duplicating
only dirty pages into corresponding caches in nilfs_shadow_map. Their
restoration is done by clearing dirty pages from original caches and
by copying dirty pages back from nilfs_shadow_map.

This stops allocating multiple super block instances for a device.
All snapshots and a current mode mount (i.e. latest tree) will be
controlled with nilfs_root objects that are kept within an sb
instance.
nilfs_get_sb() is rewritten so that it always has a root object for
the latest tree and snapshots make additional root objects.
The root dentry of the latest tree is binded to sb->s_root even if it
isn't attached on a directory. Root dentries of snapshots or the
latest tree are binded to mnt->mnt_root on which they are mounted.
With this patch, nilfs_find_sbinfo() function, nilfs->ns_supers list,
and nilfs->ns_current back pointer, are deleted. In addition,
init_nilfs() and load_nilfs() are simplified since they will be called
once for a device, not repeatedly called for mount points.

Snapshots of nilfs are read-only.
After super block instances (sb) will be unified, nilfs will need to

IS_RDONLY(inode). This is because IS_RDONLY() refers to MS_RDONLY bit

To hold multiple versions of a filesystem in one sb instance, a new
on-memory structure is necessary to handle one or more checkpoints.
This adds a red-black tree of checkpoints to nilfs object, and adds
lookup and create functions for them.
Each checkpoint is represented by "nilfs_root" structure, and this
structure has rb_node to configure the rb-tree.
The nilfs_root object is identified with a checkpoint number. For
each snapshot, a nilfs_root object is allocated and the checkpoint
number of snapshot is assigned to it. For a regular mount
(i.e. current mode mount), NILFS_CPTREE_CURRENT_CNO constant is
assigned to the corresponding nilfs_root object.
Each nilfs_root object has an ifile inode and some counters. These
items will displace those of nilfs_sb_info structure in successive
patches.
