v2: don't modify sync_fs op prototype, handle errors at vfs layer

The syncfs system call returns an int error code, but in general it does
not return errors when an inode fails writeback. It will return an error
if __sync_blockdev fails, but that's not useful on non-block based
filesystems and is generally not useful on more modern filesystems that
don't rely on that call.

This patchset aims to remedy that by adding some infrastructure to allow
syncfs to return an error when an inode fails writeback. The basic idea
is to add a new errseq_t to the super_block to record writeback errors.

Because we don't want to grow struct file for this purpose, this new
behavior is only activated when the fd passed to syncfs is opened with
O_PATH.

One of the items on the wishlist from the PostgreSQL developers at this
year's LSF/MM was a way to tell whether there has been any writeback
failure on a filesystem without forcing everything to be synced out.

The final patch in this series adds a new generic vfs ioctl that
presents the new sb->s_wb_err field to userland applications that wish
to see it.

Comments and suggestions welcome.

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

Currently, we always call __sync_blockdev after sync_fs, though very
few filesystems actually need it these days.

Note that many older filesystems still rely on flushing out the bd_inode
cache to ensure that it's safely written to the backing store, so when
sync_fs is not defined, we do still call __sync_blockdev to support
them.

Export __sync_blockdev and push the calls to __sync_blockdev down into
the sync_fs routines. Push those calls down into the filesystem
->sync_fs routines that actually need it, rather than calling it
unconditionally.

This also means that we need to return the error from the ->sync_fs op
to the caller as well, so add a vfs_sync_fs helper to encapsulate these
details.

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

Allow sync_filesystem and __sync_filesystem to take an errseq_t pointer
for the purposes of error reporting. For now, everything passes in NULL
and the field is ignored, but a later patch will change that.

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

Usually we suggest that applications call fsync when they want to
ensure that all data written to the file has made it to the backing
store, but that can be inefficient when there are a lot of open
files.

Calling syncfs on the filesystem can be more efficient in some
situations, but the error reporting doesn't currently work the way most
people expect. If a single inode on a filesystem reports a writeback
error, syncfs won't necessarily return an error. syncfs only returns an
error if __sync_blockdev fails, and on some filesystems that's a no-op.

It would be better if syncfs reported an error if there were any writeback
failures. Then applications could call syncfs to see if there are any
errors on any open files, and could then call fsync on all of the other
descriptors to figure out which one failed.

This patch adds a new errseq_t to struct super_block, and has
mapping_set_error also record writeback errors there.

To report those errors, we also need to keep an errseq_t for in struct
file to act as a cursor, but growing struct file for this purpose is
undesirable. We could just reuse f_wb_err, but someone could mix calls
to fsync and syncfs and that would break things.

This patch implements an alternative suggested by Willy. When the file
is opened with O_PATH, then we repurpose the f_wb_err cursor to track
s_wb_err. Any file opened with O_PATH will not have an fsync
file_operation, and attempts to fsync such a fd will return -EBADF.

Note that calling syncfs on an O_PATH descriptor today will also return
-EBADF, so this scheme gives userland a way to tell whether this
mechanism will work at runtime.

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

When syncing out a block device (a'la __sync_blockdev), any error
encountered will only be recorded in the bd_inode's mapping. When the
blockdev contains a filesystem however, we'd like to also record the
error in the super_block that's stored there.

Make mark_buffer_write_io_error also record the error in the
corresponding super_block when a writeback error occurs and the block
device contains a mounted superblock.

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

The postgres developers recently mentioned that they'd like a way to
tell whether there have been any writeback errors on a given filesystem
without having to forcibly sync out all buffered writes.

Now that we have a per-sb errseq_t that tracks whether any inode on the
filesystem might have failed writeback, we can present that to userland
applications via a new interface. Add a new generic fs ioctl for that
purpose. This just reports the current state of the errseq_t counter
with the SEEN bit masked off.

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

Add a test for new syncfs error reporting behavior. When an inode fails
to be written back, ensure that we report an error to a subsequent call
to syncfs().

Because we don't want to grow struct file in order to support this, we
only do this if the file was opened with O_PATH flag.

    [PATCH v2 0/5] vfs: allow syncfs to return an error when inode writeback fails

We probably don't want to merge this until it's clear that treating
syncfs differently on an O_PATH open is OK.

After chatting with David Howells about this, I think I'm going to
withdraw this set and do one that only exposes s_wb_err via the new
fsinfo syscall that's going in soon. We can always add the other
interfaces later if it's 

Let's just disregard this set for now and I'll look at respinning it
around that as an interface.

Cheers,
