[PATCH v5 2/2] nilfs2: use atomic_long_t type for inodes_count and blocks_count fields in nilfs_root struct

[Vyacheslav Dubeyko]

From: Vyacheslav Dubeyko <slava-yeENwD64cLxBDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org>
Subject: [PATCH v5 2/2] nilfs2: use atomic_long_t type for inodes_count and
 blocks_count fields in nilfs_root struct

The cp_inodes_count and cp_blocks_count are represented as
__le64 type in on-disk structure (struct nilfs_checkpoint).
But analogous fields in in-core structure (struct nilfs_root)
are represented by atomic_t type.

This patch replaces atomic_t on atomic_long_t type in representation
of inodes_count and blocks_count fields in struct nilfs_root.

Isn't atomic_long_t defined to be 32bit on 32bit architectures?

And it doesn't concern you to use a 32bit memory structure to
represent a 64bit on-disk structure? ;)

I suppose that you mean possibility to mount NILFS2 volume under 32 bit architecture
after working with this volume under 64 bit architecture. Am I correct?

Have you any concrete remarks about code of the patch? Feel free to offer your vision.

Replace atomic_long_t with atomic64_t and replace the various accessor
functions.  The on-disk data structure is 64bit, so of course you use
a 64bit in-memory structure.

Does it really take a vision to come up with this idea?

Things are not so simple.  It is not guaranteed that 32-bit
architectures can handle 64-bit on-disk values.  (Think ino_t, page
index, or nrpages.  These are defined with "unsigned long".)

However, these "inodes_count" and "blocks_count" are directly
corresponding to their on-disk counterparts, so using atomic64_t looks
more intuitive for most people; using atomic_long_t for these was
confusing.

Ok, I agree.

Vyacheslav, could you please consider taking in Jörn's comment ?

So, I have such understanding. Please, correct me if I'm wrong.

The atomic_long_t and atomic64_t types are 64 bits on 64-bit architecture.
The atomic_long_t type is 32 bits on 32-bit architecture. So, If we want to have
64 bits atomic counter on 32-bit architecture then we need to use generic atomic64_t
implementation (asm-generic/atomic64.t). But generic 64-bit atomic support
depends from CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 configuration option
(http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/linux/atomic.h#L127). As a result,
NILFS2 driver needs to have dependance from CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64
configuration option on 32-bit architecture configuration.

With the best regards,
Vyacheslav Dubeyko.

You don't have to add denpendency to CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64.

In my understanding, the generic atomic64 operations (i.e. routines in
lib/atomic64.c) are only used when selected architecture doesn't have
own implementation.

For instance, sparc32 uses the generic implementation, but x86_64
architecture uses arch/x86/include/asm/atomic64_64.h, and x86_32 uses
arch/x86/include/asm/atomic64_32.h and
arch/x86/lib/atomic64_{386,cx8}_32.S for 32-bit.

CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 is selected by arch/*/Kconfig in the former
case.  It is not intended to be selected directly by users.
