reiserfs: Relax lock on xattr removing

When we remove an xattr, we call lookup_and_delete_xattr()
that takes some private xattr inodes mutexes. But we hold
the reiserfs lock at this time, which leads to dependency
inversions.

We can safely call lookup_and_delete_xattr() without the
reiserfs lock, where xattr inodes lookups only need the
xattr inodes mutexes.

reiserfs: Relax lock before open xattr dir in reiserfs_xattr_set_handle()

We call xattr_lookup() from reiserfs_xattr_get(). We then hold
the reiserfs lock when we grab the i_mutex. But later, we may
relax the reiserfs lock, creating dependency inversion between
both locks.

The lookups and creation jobs ar already protected by the
inode mutex, so we can safely relax the reiserfs lock, dropping
the unwanted reiserfs lock -> i_mutex dependency, as shown
in the following lockdep report:

reiserfs: Fix reiserfs lock <-> i_mutex dependency inversion on xattr

While deleting the xattrs of an inode, we hold the reiserfs lock
and grab the inode->i_mutex of the targeted inode and the root
private xattr directory.

Later on, we may relax the reiserfs lock for various reasons, this
creates inverted dependencies.

We can remove the reiserfs lock -> i_mutex dependency by relaxing
the former before calling open_xa_dir(). This is fine because the
lookup and creation of xattr private directories done in
open_xa_dir() are covered by the targeted inode mutexes. And deeper
operations in the tree are still done under the write lock.

This fixes the following lockdep report:

reiserfs: Fix reiserfs lock <-> i_xattr_sem dependency inversion

i_xattr_sem depends on the reiserfs lock. But after we grab
i_xattr_sem, we may relax/relock the reiserfs lock while waiting
on a freezed filesystem, creating a dependency inversion between
the two locks.

In order to avoid the i_xattr_sem -> reiserfs lock dependency, let's
create a reiserfs_down_read_safe() that acts like
reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe(): relax the reiserfs lock while grabbing
another lock to avoid undesired dependencies induced by the
heivyweight reiserfs lock.

This fixes the following warning:

reiserfs: Fix reiserfs lock <-> inode mutex dependency inversion

The reiserfs lock -> inode mutex dependency gets inverted when we
relax the lock while walking to the tree.

To fix this, use a specialized version of reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe
that takes care of mutex subclasses. Then we can grab the inode
mutex with I_MUTEX_XATTR subclass without any reiserfs lock
dependency.

This fixes the following report:

sanitize xattr handler prototypes

Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr
handler methods. This allows using the same methods for multiple
handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action
for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying
attribute. With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the
methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and
jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch.

Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow
using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later,
e.g. cifs.

reiserfs_xattr_init is called with the reiserfs write lock held, but
if the ".reiserfs_priv" entry is not created, we take the superblock
root directory inode mutex until .reiserfs_priv is created.

This creates a lock dependency inversion against other sites such as
reiserfs_file_release() which takes an inode mutex and the reiserfs
lock after.

kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: acquire the inode mutex safely

While searching a pathname, an inode mutex can be acquired
in do_lookup() which calls reiserfs_lookup() which in turn
acquires the write lock.

On the other side reiserfs_fill_super() can acquire the write_lock
and then call reiserfs_lookup_privroot() which can acquire an
inode mutex (the root of the mount point).

So we theoretically risk an AB - BA lock inversion that could lead
to a deadlock.

As for other lock dependencies found since the bkl to mutex
conversion, the fix is to use reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe() which
drops the lock dependency to the write lock.

reiserfs: fixup xattr_root caching

The xattr_root caching was broken from my previous patch set. It wouldn't
cause corruption, but could cause decreased performance due to allocating
a larger chunk of the journal (~ 27 blocks) than it would actually use.

This patch loads the xattr root dentry at xattr initialization and creates
it on-demand. Since we're using the cached dentry, there's no point
in keeping lookup_or_create_dir around, so that's removed.

reiserfs: Expand i_mutex to enclose lookup_one_len

2.6.30-rc3 introduced some sanity checks in the VFS code to avoid NFS
bugs by ensuring that lookup_one_len is always called under i_mutex.

This patch expands the i_mutex locking to enclose lookup_one_len. This was
always required, but not not enforced in the reiserfs code since it
does locking around the xattr interactions with the xattr_sem.

This is obvious enough, and it survived an overnight 50 thread ACL test.

reiserfs: use generic readdir for operations across all xattrs

The current reiserfs xattr implementation open codes reiserfs_readdir
and frees the path before calling the filldir function. Typically, the
filldir function is something that modifies the file system, such as a
chown or an inode deletion that also require reading of an inode
associated with each direntry. Since the file system is modified, the
path retained becomes invalid for the next run. In addition, it runs
backwards in attempt to minimize activity.

This is clearly suboptimal from a code cleanliness perspective as well
as performance-wise.

This patch implements a generic reiserfs_for_each_xattr that uses the
generic readdir and a specific filldir routine that simply populates an
array of dentries and then performs a specific operation on them. When
all files have been operated on, it then calls the operation on the
directory itself.

The result is a noticable code reduction and better performance.

reiserfs: journaled xattrs

Deadlocks are possible in the xattr code between the journal lock and the
xattr sems.

This patch implements journalling for xattr operations. The benefit is
twofold:
* It gets rid of the deadlock possibility by always ensuring that xattr
write operations are initiated inside a transaction.
* It corrects the problem where xattr backing files aren't considered any
differently than normal files, despite the fact they are metadata.

I discussed the added journal load with Chris Mason, and we decided that
since xattrs (versus other journal activity) is fairly rare, the introduction
of larger transactions to support journaled xattrs wouldn't be too big a deal.

reiserfs: use generic xattr handlers

Christoph Hellwig had asked me quite some time ago to port the reiserfs
xattrs to the generic xattr interface.

This patch replaces the reiserfs-specific xattr handling code with the
generic struct xattr_handler.

However, since reiserfs doesn't split the prefix and name when accessing
xattrs, it can't leverage generic_{set,get,list,remove}xattr without
needlessly reconstructing the name on the back end.
