<content type='text'>
The xfs.h header conflicts with the public xfs.h in xfsprogs, leading
to a spurious difference in all shared libxfs files that have to
include libxfs_priv.h in userspace.  Directly include xfs_platform.h so
that we can add a header of the same name to xfsprogs and remove this
major annoyance for the shared code.

This inode log item recovery failing the dinode verifier after
replaying the contents of the inode log item into the ondisk inode.
Looking back into what the kernel was doing at the time of the fs
shutdown, a thread was in the middle of running a series of
transactions, each of which committed changes to the inode.

At some point in the middle of that chain, an invalid (at least
according to the verifier) change was committed.  Had the filesystem not
shut down in the middle of the chain, a subsequent transaction would
have corrected the invalid state and nobody would have noticed.  But
that's not what happened here.  Instead, the invalid inode state was
committed to the ondisk log, so log recovery tripped over it.

The actual defect here was an overzealous inode verifier, which was
fixed in a separate patch.  This patch adds some transaction precommit
functions for CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=y mode so that we can detect these kinds
of transient errors at transaction commit time, where it's much easier
to find the root cause.

The old lock tracking infrastructure in xfs using the b_last_holder
field seems to only be useful if you can get into the system with a
debugger; it seems that the existing tracepoints would be the way to
go these days, and this old infrastructure can be removed.

<title>xfs: convert to SPDX license tags</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0b61f8a4079d904b1b1d47946cca898313de8c26</id>
<content type='text'>
Remove the verbose license text from XFS files and replace them
with SPDX tags. This does not change the license of any of the code,
merely refers to the common, up-to-date license files in LICENSES/

This change was mostly scripted. fs/xfs/Makefile and
fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_fs.h were modified by hand, the rest were detected
and modified by the following command:

for f in `git grep -l "GNU General" fs/xfs/` ; do
	echo $f
	cat $f | awk -f hdr.awk &gt; $f.new
	mv -f $f.new $f
done

And the hdr.awk script that did the modification (including
detecting the difference between GPL-2.0 and GPL-2.0+ licenses)
is as follows:

$ cat hdr.awk
BEGIN {
	hdr = 1.0
	tag = "GPL-2.0"
	str = ""
}

/^ \* This program is free software/ {
	hdr = 2.0;
	next
}

/any later version./ {
	tag = "GPL-2.0+"
	next
}

/^ \*\// {
	if (hdr &gt; 0.0) {
		print "// SPDX-License-Identifier: " tag
		print str
		print $0
		str=""
		hdr = 0.0
		next
	}
	print $0
	next
}

/^ \* / {
	if (hdr &gt; 1.0)
		next
	if (hdr &gt; 0.0) {
		if (str != "")
			str = str "\n"
		str = str $0
		next
	}
	print $0
	next
}

/^ \*/ {
	if (hdr &gt; 0.0)
		next
	print $0
	next
}

// {
	if (hdr &gt; 0.0) {
		if (str != "")
			str = str "\n"
		str = str $0
		next
	}
	print $0
}

END { }

Ever since we added the noinline tag there is no good reason to define
away the static for debug builds - we'll get just as good debug
information with our without it, so don't mess up sparse and other
checkers due to it.

<title>xfs: define fatal assert build time tunable</title>

<content type='text'>
While configurable at runtime, the DEBUG mode assert failure
behavior is usually either desired or not for a particular
situation. For example, developers using kernel modules may prefer
for fatal asserts to remain disabled across module reloads while QE
engineers doing broad regression testing may prefer to have fatal
asserts enabled on boot to facilitate data collection for bug
reports.

To provide a compromise/convenience for developers, create a Kconfig
option that sets the default value of the DEBUG mode 'bug_on_assert'
sysfs tunable. The default behavior remains to trigger kernel BUGs
on assert failures to preserve existing behavior across kernel
configuration updates with DEBUG mode enabled.

<id>urn:sha1:742ae1e35b038ed65ddd86182723441ea74db765</id>
<content type='text'>
Running a CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG kernel in production environments is not
the best idea as it introduces significant overhead, can change
the behaviour of algorithms (such as allocation) to improve test
coverage, and (most importantly) panic the machine on non-fatal
errors.

There are many cases where all we want to do is run a
kernel with more bounds checking enabled, such as is provided by the
ASSERT() statements throughout the code, but without all the
potential overhead and drawbacks.

This patch converts all the ASSERT statements to evaluate as
WARN_ON(1) statements and hence if they fail dump a warning and a
stack trace to the log. This has minimal overhead and does not
change any algorithms, and will allow us to find strange "out of
bounds" problems more easily on production machines.

There are a few places where assert statements contain debug only
code. These are converted to be debug-or-warn only code so that we
still get all the assert checks in the code.
