It seems like "err < 0" was meant to be used here.
This way, the error code is returned by the function.

And interesting situation can occur if a log IO error occurs during
the unmount of a filesystem. The cases reported have the same
signature - the update of the superblock counters fails due to a log
write IO error:
XFS (dm-16): xfs_do_force_shutdown(0x2) called from line 1170 of file fs/xfs/xfs_log.c. Return address = 0xffffffffa08a44a1
XFS (dm-16): Log I/O Error Detected. Shutting down filesystem
XFS (dm-16): Unable to update superblock counters. Freespace may not be correct on next mount.
XFS (dm-16): xfs_log_force: error 5 returned.
XFS (¿-¿¿¿): Please umount the filesystem and rectify the problem(s)
It can be seen that the last line of output contains a corrupt
device name - this is because the log and xfs_mount structures have
already been freed by the time this message is printed. A kernel
oops closely follows.
The issue is that the shutdown is occurring in a separate IO
completion thread to the unmount. Once the shutdown processing has
started and all the iclogs are marked with XLOG_STATE_IOERROR, the
log shutdown code wakes anyone waiting on a log force so they can
process the shutdown error. This wakes up the unmount code that
is doing a synchronous transaction to update the superblock
counters.
The unmount path now sees all the iclogs are marked with
XLOG_STATE_IOERROR and so never waits on them again, knowing that if
it does, there will not be a wakeup trigger for it and we will hang
the unmount if we do. Hence the unmount runs through all the
remaining code and frees all the filesystem structures while the
xlog_iodone() is still processing the shutdown. When the log
shutdown processing completes, xfs_do_force_shutdown() emits the
"Please umount the filesystem and rectify the problem(s)" message,
and xlog_iodone() then aborts all the objects attached to the iclog.
An iclog that has already been freed....
The real issue here is that there is no serialisation point between
the log IO and the unmount. We have serialisations points for log
writes, log forces, reservations, etc, but we don't actually have
any code that wakes for log IO to fully complete. We do that for all
other types of object, so why not iclogbufs?
Well, it turns out that we can easily do this. We've got xfs_buf
handles, and that's what everyone else uses for IO serialisation.
i.e. bp->b_sema. So, lets hold iclogbufs locked over IO, and only
release the lock in xlog_iodone() when we are finished with the
buffer. That way before we tear down the iclog, we can lock and
unlock the buffer to ensure IO completion has finished completely
before we tear it down.

FSX has been detecting data corruption after to collapse range
calls. The key observation is that the offset of the last extent in
the file was not being shifted, and hence when the file size was
adjusted it was truncating away data because the extents handled
been correctly shifted.
Tracing indicated that before the collapse, the extent list looked
like:
....
ino 0x5788 state idx 6 offset 26 block 195904 count 10 flag 0
ino 0x5788 state idx 7 offset 39 block 195917 count 35 flag 0
ino 0x5788 state idx 8 offset 86 block 195964 count 32 flag 0
and after the shift of 2 blocks:
ino 0x5788 state idx 6 offset 24 block 195904 count 10 flag 0
ino 0x5788 state idx 7 offset 37 block 195917 count 35 flag 0
ino 0x5788 state idx 8 offset 86 block 195964 count 32 flag 0
Note that the last extent did not change offset. After the changing
of the file size:
ino 0x5788 state idx 6 offset 24 block 195904 count 10 flag 0
ino 0x5788 state idx 7 offset 37 block 195917 count 35 flag 0
ino 0x5788 state idx 8 offset 86 block 195964 count 30 flag 0
You can see that the last extent had it's length truncated,
indicating that we've lost data.
The reason for this is that the xfs_bmap_shift_extents() loop uses
XFS_IFORK_NEXTENTS() to determine how many extents are in the inode.
This, unfortunately, doesn't take into account delayed allocation
extents - it's a count of physically allocated extents - and hence
when the file being collapsed has a delalloc extent like this one
does prior to the range being collapsed:
....
ino 0x5788 state idx 4 offset 11 block 4503599627239429 count 1 flag 0
....
it gets the count wrong and terminates the shift loop early.
Fix it by using the in-memory extent array size that includes
delayed allocation extents to determine the number of extents on the
inode.

Al Viro tracked down the problem that has caused generic/263 to fail
on XFS since the test was introduced. If is caused by
xfs_get_blocks() mapping a single extent that spans EOF without
marking it as buffer-new() so that the direct IO code does not zero
the tail of the block at the new EOF. This is a long standing bug
that has been around for many, many years.
Because xfs_get_blocks() starts the map before EOF, it can't set
buffer_new(), because that causes he direct IO code to also zero
unaligned sectors at the head of the IO. This would overwrite valid
data with zeros, and hence we cannot validly return a single extent
that spans EOF to direct IO.
Fix this by detecting a mapping that spans EOF and truncate it down
to EOF. This results in the the direct IO code doing the right thing
for unaligned data blocks before EOF, and then returning to get
another mapping for the region beyond EOF which XFS treats correctly
by setting buffer_new() on it. This makes direct Io behave correctly
w.r.t. tail block zeroing beyond EOF, and fsx is happy about that.
Again, thanks to Al Viro for finding what I couldn't.

kernfs_iattrs is allocated lazily when operations which require it

properly synchronized and when there are multiple concurrent
operations, it might end up returning kernfs_iattrs which hasn't

Fix it by synchronizing with a mutex. This can be smarter with memory

Problem reported in Red Hat bz 1040329 for strict writes where we cache
only when we hold oplock and write direct to the server when we don't.
When we receive an oplock break, we first change the oplock value for
the inode in cifsInodeInfo->oplock to indicate that we no longer hold
the oplock before we enqueue a task to flush changes to the backing
device. Once we have completed flushing the changes, we return the
oplock to the server.
There are 2 ways here where we can have data corruption
1) While we flush changes to the backing device as part of the oplock
break, we can have processes write to the file. These writes check for
the oplock, find none and attempt to write directly to the server.
These direct writes made while we are flushing from cache could be
overwritten by data being flushed from the cache causing data
corruption.
2) While a thread runs in cifs_strict_writev, the machine could receive
and process an oplock break after the thread has checked the oplock and
found that it allows us to cache and before we have made changes to the
cache. In that case, we end up with a dirty page in cache when we
shouldn't have any. This will be flushed later and will overwrite all
subsequent writes to the part of the file represented by this page.
Before making any writes to the server, we need to confirm that we are
not in the process of flushing data to the server and if we are, we
should wait until the process is complete before we attempt the write.
We should also wait for existing writes to complete before we process
an oplock break request which changes oplock values.
We add a version specific downgrade_oplock() operation to allow for
differences in the oplock values set for the different smb versions.

If we fail a write beyond EOF and have to handle it in
xfs_vm_write_begin(), we truncate the inode back to the current inode
size. This doesn't take into account the fact that we may have
already made successful writes to the same page (in the case of block
size < page size) and hence we can truncate the page cache away from
blocks with valid data in them. If these blocks are delayed
allocation blocks, we now have a mismatch between the page cache and
the extent tree, and this will trigger - at minimum - a delayed
block count mismatch assert when the inode is evicted from the cache.
We can also trip over it when block mapping for direct IO - this is
the most common symptom seen from fsx and fsstress when run from
xfstests.
Fix it by only truncating away the exact range we are updating state
for in this write_begin call.

When a write fails, if we don't clear the delalloc flags from the
buffers over the failed range, they can persist beyond EOF and cause
problems. writeback will see the pages in the page cache, see they
are dirty and continually retry the write, assuming that the page
beyond EOF is just racing with a truncate. The page will eventually
be released due to some other operation (e.g. direct IO), and it
will not pass through invalidation because it is dirty. Hence it
will be released with buffer_delay set on it, and trigger warnings
in xfs_vm_releasepage() and assert fail in xfs_file_aio_write_direct
because invalidation failed and we didn't write the corect amount.
This causes failures on block size < page size filesystems in fsx
and fsstress workloads run by xfstests.
Fix it by completely trashing any state on the buffer that could be
used to imply that it contains valid data when the delalloc range
over the buffer is punched out during the failed write handling.

boilerplate, gets rid of locking inconsistencie between aio_write and
splice_write and I hope to get Kent's direct-io rewrite merged into
the same queue, but some of the stuff after this point is having
(mostly trivial) conflicts with the things already merged into
mainline and with some I want more testing.
This one passes LTP and xfstests without regressions, in addition to
usual beating. BTW, readahead02 in ltp syscalls testsuite has started
giving failures since "mm/readahead.c: fix readahead failure for
memoryless NUMA nodes and limit readahead pages" - might be a false
positive, might be a real regression..."
