After re-naming the 'struct ubi_scan_info' we should adjust all variables named 'si' to something else, because 'si' stands for "scanning info". Let's rename it to 'ai' which stands for "attaching info" which is a bit more consistent and has the same length, which makes re-naming easy.

Rename 'struct ubi_scan_info' to 'struct ubi_attach_info'. This is part of the code re-structuring I am trying to do in order to add fastmap in a more logical way. Fastmap can share a lot with scanning, including the attach-time data structures, which all now have "scan" word in the name. Let's get rid of this word.

This patch removes the 'dbg_err()' macro and we now use 'ubi_err' instead. The idea of 'dbg_err()' was to compile out some error message to make the binary a bit smaller - but I think it was a bad idea. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>

We have the "sefl-check" feature in UBI, but for historical reasons many corresponding functions and commentaries in the code use term "paranoid check" instead. Let's clean this up and use "self-check" everywhere. This patch renames functions, amends messages and kills several redundant debugging messages.

Richard removed the "dtype" hint, but few commentaries were left and this patch removes them. I've also added a better description about the "dtype" field in the ubi-user.h for people who may ever wonder what was that dtype thing about.

UBI (and UBIFS) are a bit over-engineered WRT debugging. The idea was to link as few as possible when debugging is disabled, but the downside is that most people produce bug reports which are difficult to understand. Always dump the VID and EC headers' contents in case of errors when it is helpful. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>

This patch weeds out the 'ubi_dbg_dump_stack()' function and turns it into 'dump_stack()' - it is always useful to have stack dump in case of an error.

UBIFS leaks memory on error path in 'mount_ubifs()'. In case of failure in 'ubifs_fixup_free_space()', it does not call 'ubifs_lpt_free()' whereas LPT data structures can potentially be allocated. The amount of memory leaked can be quite high -- see 'ubifs_lpt_init()'. The bug was introduced when moving the LPT initialisation earlier in the mount process (commit '781c5717').

Most functions in UBIFS follow the following designn pattern: if the function allocates multiple resources, and failss at some point, it frees what it has allocated and returns an error. So the caller can rely on the fact that the callee has cleaned up everything after own failure.

The autofs packet size has had a very unfortunate size problem on x86: because the alignment of 'u64' differs in 32-bit and 64-bit modes, and because the packet data was not 8-byte aligned, the size of the autofsv5 packet structure differed between 32-bit and 64-bit modes despite looking otherwise identical (300 vs 304 bytes respectively). We first fixed that up by making the 64-bit compat mode know about this problem in commit a32744d4 ("autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64"), and that made a 32-bit 'systemd' work happily on a 64-bit kernel because everything then worked the same way as on a 32-bit kernel. But it turned out that 'automount' had actually known and worked around this problem in user space, so fixing the kernel to do the proper 32-bit compatibility handling actually *broke* 32-bit automount on a 64-bit kernel, because it knew that the packet sizes were wrong and expected those incorrect sizes. As a result, we ended up reverting that compatibility mode fix, and thus breaking systemd again, in commit fcbf94b9. With both automount and systemd doing a single read() system call, and verifying that they get *exactly* the size they expect but using different sizes, it seemed that fixing one of them inevitably seemed to break the other. At one point, a patch I seriously considered applying from Michael Tokarev did a "strcmp()" to see if it was automount that was doing the operation. Ugly, ugly. However, a prettier solution exists now thanks to the packetized pipe mode. By marking the communication pipe as being packetized (by simply setting the O_DIRECT flag), we can always just write the bigger packet size, and if user-space does a smaller read, it will just get that partial end result and the extra alignment padding will simply be thrown away. This makes both automount and systemd happy, since they now get the size they asked for, and the kernel side of autofs simply no longer needs to care - it could pad out the packet arbitrarily. Of course, if there is some *other* user of autofs (please, please, please tell me it ain't so - and we haven't heard of any) that tries to read the packets with multiple writes, that other user will now be broken - the whole point of the packetized mode is that one system call gets exactly one packet, and you cannot read a packet in pieces.

The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that as a special packetized mode. When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer). End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway), and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of the packet. NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF). Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to explicitly support bigger packets some day. The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface, allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes (which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.
