This tag is useless and it breaks automatic builds. It causes rebuilds
for packages that depend on kernel for no real reason.
Further, quoting Michal, who removed most of the users already:
The kernel already prints its build timestamp during boot, no need to
repeat it in random drivers and produce different object files each
time.

The power cut emulation did not work correctly because we corrupted more than
one max. I/O unit in the buffer and then wrote the entire buffer. This lead to
recovery errors because UBIFS complained about corrupted free space. And this
was easily reproducible on mtdram because max. write size is very small there
(64 bytes), and we could easily have a 1KiB buffer, corrupt 128 bytes there,
and then write the entire buffer.
The fix is to corrupt max. write size bytes at most, and write only up to the
last corrupted max. write size chunk, not the entire buffer.

When debugging is enabled, we use a temporary on-stack buffer for formatting
the key strings like "(11368871, direntry, 0xcd0750)". The buffer size is
32 bytes and sometimes it is not enough to fit the key string - e.g., when
inode numbers are high. This is not fatal, but the key strings are incomplete
and UBIFS complains like this:
UBIFS assert failed in dbg_snprintf_key at 137 (pid 1)
This is a regression caused by "515315a UBIFS: fix key printing".
Fix the issue by increasing the buffer to 48 bytes.

Commit "d51f17e UBIFS: simplify reply code a bit" introduces a bug with the
following symptoms:
UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: first CS node at LEB 3:0 has wrong commit number 0 expected 1
The issue is that we start replaying the log from UBIFS_LOG_LNUM instead
of c->lhead_lnum. This patch fixes that.

This patch fixes a regression introduced by
"4994297 UBIFS: make ubifs_lpt_init clean-up in case of failure" which
I've hit while running the 'integck -p' test. When remount the file-system
from R/O mode to R/W mode and 'lpt_init_wr()' fails, we free _all_ LPT
resources by calling 'ubifs_lpt_free(c, 0)', even those needed for R/O
mode. This leads to subsequent crashes, e.g., if we try to unmount
the file-system.

Pull UBIFS updates from Artem Bityutskiy:
- Added another debugfs knob for forcing UBIFS R/O mode without
flushing caches or finishing commit or any other I/O operation. I've
originally added this knob in order to reproduce the free space fixup
bug (see commit c6727932cfdb: "UBIFS: fix a bug in empty space
fix-up") on nandsim.
Without this knob I would have to do real power-cuts, which would
make debugging much harder. Then I've decided to keep this knob
because it is also useful for UBIFS power-cut recovery end
error-paths testing.
- Well-spotted fix from Julia. This bug did not cause real troubles
for UBIFS, but nevertheless it could cause issues for someone trying
to modify the orphans handling code. Kudos to coccinelle!
- Minor cleanups.

Pull the big VFS changes from Al Viro:
"This one is *big* and changes quite a few things around VFS. What's in there:
- the first of two really major architecture changes - death to open
intents.
The former is finally there; it was very long in making, but with
Miklos getting through really hard and messy final push in
fs/namei.c, we finally have it. Unlike his variant, this one
doesn't introduce struct opendata; what we have instead is
->atomic_open() taking preallocated struct file * and passing
everything via its fields.
Instead of returning struct file *, it returns -E... on error, 0
on success and 1 in "deal with it yourself" case (e.g. symlink
found on server, etc.).
See comments before fs/namei.c:atomic_open(). That made a lot of
goodies finally possible and quite a few are in that pile:
->lookup(), ->d_revalidate() and ->create() do not get struct
nameidata * anymore; ->lookup() and ->d_revalidate() get lookup
flags instead, ->create() gets "do we want it exclusive" flag.
With the introduction of new helper (kern_path_locked()) we are rid
of all struct nameidata instances outside of fs/namei.c; it's still
visible in namei.h, but not for long. Come the next cycle,
declaration will move either to fs/internal.h or to fs/namei.c
itself. [me, miklos, hch]
- The second major change: behaviour of final fput(). Now we have
__fput() done without any locks held by caller *and* not from deep
in call stack.
That obviously lifts a lot of constraints on the locking in there.
Moreover, it's legal now to call fput() from atomic contexts (which
has immediately simplified life for aio.c). We also don't need
anti-recursion logics in __scm_destroy() anymore.
There is a price, though - the damn thing has become partially
asynchronous. For fput() from normal process we are guaranteed
that pending __fput() will be done before the caller returns to
userland, exits or gets stopped for ptrace.
For kernel threads and atomic contexts it's done via
schedule_work(), so theoretically we might need a way to make sure
it's finished; so far only one such place had been found, but there
might be more.
There's flush_delayed_fput() (do all pending __fput()) and there's
__fput_sync() (fput() analog doing __fput() immediately). I hope
we won't need them often; see warnings in fs/file_table.c for
details. [me, based on task_work series from Oleg merged last
cycle]
- sync series from Jan
- large part of "death to sync_supers()" work from Artem; the only
bits missing here are exofs and ext4 ones. As far as I understand,
those are going via the exofs and ext4 trees resp.; once they are
in, we can put ->write_super() to the rest, along with the thread
calling it.
- preparatory bits from unionmount series (from dhowells).
- assorted cleanups and fixes all over the place, as usual.
This is not the last pile for this cycle; there's at least jlayton's
ESTALE work and fsfreeze series (the latter - in dire need of fixes,
so I'm not sure it'll make the cut this cycle). I'll probably throw
symlink/hardlink restrictions stuff from Kees into the next pile, too.
Plus there's a lot of misc patches I hadn't thrown into that one -
it's large enough as it is..."

If list_for_each_entry, etc complete a traversal of the list, the iterator
variable ends up pointing to an address at an offset from the list head,
and not a meaningful structure. Thus this value should not be used after
the end of the iterator. Replace a field access from orphan by NULL in two
places.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@@
identifier c;
expression E;
iterator name list_for_each_entry;
statement S;
@@
list_for_each_entry(c,...) { ... when != break;
when forall
when strict
}

(
c = E

// </smpl>

In the log reply code we assume that 'c->lhead_offs' is known and may be
non-zero, which is not the case because we do not store it in the master

This patch adds another debugfs knob which switches UBIFS to R/O mode.
I needed it while trying to reproduce the 'first log node is not CS node'
bug. Without this debugfs knob you have to perform a power cut to repruduce
the bug. The knob is named 'ro_error' and all it does is it sets the
'ro_error' UBIFS flag which makes UBIFS disallow any further writes - even
write-back will fail with -EROFS. Useful for debugging.

UBIFS has a feature called "empty space fix-up" which is a quirk to work-around
limitations of dumb flasher programs. Namely, of those flashers that are unable
to skip NAND pages full of 0xFFs while flashing, resulting in empty space at
the end of half-filled eraseblocks to be unusable for UBIFS. This feature is
relatively new (introduced in v3.0).
The fix-up routine (fixup_free_space()) is executed only once at the very first
mount if the superblock has the 'space_fixup' flag set (can be done with -F
option of mkfs.ubifs). It basically reads all the UBIFS data and metadata and
writes it back to the same LEB. The routine assumes the image is pristine and
does not have anything in the journal.
There was a bug in 'fixup_free_space()' where it fixed up the log incorrectly.
All but one LEB of the log of a pristine file-system are empty. And one
contains just a commit start node. And 'fixup_free_space()' just unmapped this
LEB, which resulted in wiping the commit start node. As a result, some users
were unable to mount the file-system next time with the following symptom:
UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: first log node at LEB 3:0 is not CS node
UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: log error detected while replaying the log at LEB 3:0
The root-cause of this bug was that 'fixup_free_space()' wrongly assumed
that the beginning of empty space in the log head (c->lhead_offs) was known
on mount. However, it is not the case - it was always 0. UBIFS does not store
in it the master node and finds out by scanning the log on every mount.
The fix is simple - just pass commit start node size instead of 0 to
'fixup_leb()'.

UBIFS leaks memory on error path in 'mount_ubifs()'. In case of failure in
'ubifs_fixup_free_space()', it does not call 'ubifs_lpt_free()' whereas LPT
data structures can potentially be allocated. The amount of memory leaked can
be quite high -- see 'ubifs_lpt_init()'.

Most functions in UBIFS follow the following designn pattern: if the function
allocates multiple resources, and failss at some point, it frees what it has
allocated and returns an error. So the caller can rely on the fact that the

This allows comparing hash and len in one operation on 64-bit
architectures. Right now only __d_lookup_rcu() takes advantage of this,
since that is the case we care most about.
The use of anonymous struct/unions hides the alternate 64-bit approach
from most users, the exception being a few cases where we initialize a
'struct qstr' with a static initializer. This makes the problematic
cases use a new QSTR_INIT() helper function for that (but initializing
just the name pointer with a "{ .name = xyzzy }" initializer remains
valid, as does just copying another qstr structure).

This patch changes the 'i_nlink' counter handling in 'ubifs_unlink()',
'ubifs_rmdir()' and 'ubifs_rename()'. In these function 'i_nlink' may become 0,
and if 'ubifs_jnl_update()' failed, we would use 'inc_nlink()' to restore
the previous 'i_nlink' value, which is incorrect from the VFS point of view and
would cause a 'WARN_ON()' (see 'inc_nlink() implementation).
This patches saves the previous 'i_nlink' value in a local variable and uses it
at the error path instead of calling 'inc_nlink()'. We do this only for the
inodes where 'i_nlink' may potentially become zero.

Most of the time we use the dumping function to dump something in case
of error. We use 'KERN_DEBUG' printk level, and the drawback is that users
do not see them in the console, while they see the other error messages
in the console. The result is that they send bug reports which does not
contain a lot of useful information. This patch changes the printk level
of the dump functions to 'KERN_ERR' to correct the situation.
I documented it in the MTD web site that people have to send the 'dmesg' output
when submitting bug reposts - it did not help.
