[EXT4 set 3][PATCH 1/1] ext4 nanosecond timestamp

[EXT4 set 3][PATCH 1/1] ext4 nanosecond timestamp

[Mingming Cao]

This patch is a spinoff of the old nanosecond patches.

It includes some cleanups and addition of a creation timestamp. The
EXT3_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE flag has also been added along with
s_{min, want}_extra_isize fields in struct ext3_super_block.

This nanosecond patch seems to be missing the fix below which is required for http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5079

If the timestamp is set to before epoch i.e. a negative timestamp then the file may have its date set into the future on 64-bit systems. So when the timestamp is read it must be cast as signed.

IIRC in the conference call it was decided to not to apply this patch. Andreas may be able to update better.

Looking at the git log i understand the core patch got applied to ext4 tree with the comment
from Andreas. So may be we can apply this patch also.


commit 4d7bf11d649c72621ca31b8ea12b9c94af380e63

Andreas says:
    
    This patch is now treating timestamps with the high bit set as negative
    times (before Jan 1, 1970).  This means we lose 1/2 of the possible range
    of timestamps (lopping off 68 years before unix timestamp overflow -
    now only 30 years away :-) to handle the extremely rare case of setting
    timestamps into the distant past.
    
    If we are only interested in fixing the underflow case, we could just
    limit the values to 0 instead of storing negative values.  At worst this
    will skew the timestamp by a few hours for timezones in the far east
    (files would still show Jan 1, 1970 in "ls -l" output).
    
    That said, it seems 32-bit systems (mine at least) allow files to be set
    into the past (01/01/1907 works fine) so it seems this patch is bringing
    the x86_64 behaviour into sync with other kernels.
    
    On the plus side, we have a patch that is ready to add nanosecond timestamps
    to ext3 and as an added bonus adds 2 high bits to the on-disk timestamp so
    this extends the maximum date to 2242.

I wasn't on the most recent concall, and I've forgotten the details of
any discussion on a previous concall.

Care really needs to be taken here that negative timestamps are handled
properly.  We can take the sign bit from the inode i_*time, but then we
need to change the load/save of the extra time to use a shift of 31
instead of 32.  If we overflow the epoch we have to ensure that the high
bits of the seconds is handled correctly.

Cheers, Andreas

This nanosecond patch seems to be missing the fix below which is required for http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5079

If the timestamp is set to before epoch i.e. a negative timestamp then the file may have its date set into the future on 64-bit systems. So when the timestamp is read it must be cast as signed.

I don't know what the "old nanosecond patches" are.  A link to a suitable
changlog for those patches would do in a pinch.  Preferable would be to
write a proper changelog for this patch.

Please add explanatory commentary to EXT4_FITS_IN_INODE(): tell readers
under what circumstances something will not fit in an inode and what the

Ugly.  I expect these could be implemented as plain old C functions. 
Caller could pass in the address of the ext4_inode field which the function
is to operate upon.

Now, I've forgotten how this works.  Remind me, please.  Can ext4
filesystems ever have one-second timestamp granularity?  If so, how does
one cause that to come about?

It is unobvious what this field does.  Please prefer to add commentary to
_all_ struct fields - it really helps.

I thought checkpatch was going to have a little whine about that but the
version I have here doesn't.

OK, I can kind-of see how this is working, but some overall description of
how the inode sizing design operates would be helpful.  It would certainly
make reviewing of this proposed change more fruitful.  Perhaps that new
comment over EXT4_FITS_IN_INODE() would be a suitable place.

Mostly, yes, but the name of the feature flag has changed.

We thought about that also, but then the caller needs to do all of the
pointer gymnastics themselves like:

     ext4_inode_get_xtime(&inode->i_ctime, &inode->i_ctime_extra,
                         &raw_inode->i_ctime, &raw_inode->i_ctime_extra)

instead of the current:

     EXT4_INODE_GET_XTIME(ctime, inode, raw_inode);

IMHO it is preferrable to make the multiple callsites more readable than
the macros.

This is actually unrelated to the current patch, just part of the context.
AFAIK, this is historical, so that the kernel and e2fsprogs can use the
same ext2_fs.h header.  I don't think it is really needed, but such cleanup
shouldn't be a part of this patch either.

Yes, this is possible if an ext2/3/4 filesystem is formatted with 128-byte
inodes (which is the default for all but ext4) and this fs is mounted as
ext4dev.  The inodes can never hold the extra time information (FITS_IN_INODE
check above) so the superblock limits the timestamp resolution to 1s in that
case.

It is the inode creation time.  This is useful for debug/forensic purposes,
and at some point there will be an API so that Samba can use it also.

Hmm, I'm sure there were emails on the topic, but they aren't attached to
the patch.  s_want_extra_isize is just an override for sizeof(ext4_inode)
in case the sysadmin wants to reserve more fields in new inodes.  There is
also s_min_extra_isize which is what the kernel and e2fsck guarantee that
will be available in all in-use inodes, if RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE is set
(ro-compat so that older kernels can't create inodes with a smaller
extra_isize).  That feature is only enabled if requested by the sysadmin.

Done.

This patch adds comments, few small corrections and an appropriate
changelog entry.

[-- Attachment #2: ext4_nanosecond_correction.patch --]
[-- Type: text/x-patch, Size: 3420 bytes --]

This patch adds nanosecond timestamps for ext4. This involves adding
*time_extra fields to the ext4_inode to extend the timestamps to 64-bits.
Creation time is also added by this patch.

These extended fields will fit into an inode if the filesystem was formatted
with large inodes (-I 256 or larger) and there are currently no EAs
consuming all of the available space. For new inodes we always reserve
enough space for the kernel's known extended fields, but for inodes
created with an old kernel this might not have been the case. So this patch
also adds the EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE feature flag(ro-compat so that
older kernels can't create inodes with a smaller extra_isize). which indicates
if the fields fitting inside s_min_extra_isize are available or not.
If the expansion of inodes if unsuccessful then this feature will be disabled.
This feature is only enabled if requested by the sysadmin.

None of the extended inode fields is critical for correct filesystem operation.

Instead of  putting incremental patches it would be nice if we can have replacement patches.
for the already existing patches with the comments addressed. For example if we have a 
review comment on the patch message ( commit log ) then adding an incremental patch doesn't help.

I think that it would be easier to review just the changes that have
been made to the patches instead of having people go through the entire
patch again. I was hoping that someone with write access to ext4-git
would update the commit logs.

If replacement patches are preferred, then I will send them again.

No need, I already fold your fix patch to the parent patches, so in the
updated ext4-patch-queue it saved the updated nanosecond patch.

I got compile warining after apply Kalpal's update nanosecond patch,
which makes these two function inline. It complains these functions are
defined but not used. It's being used only in the following
micros(EXT4_INODE_SET_XTIME etc).  So if the .c file included the
ext4_fs.h but not using the micros, the compile will think these two
functions are not used.
