The series is an update and a more complete version of the previously posted series at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20180122020426.2988-1-deepa.kernel@xxxxxxxxx/ Thanks to Arnd Bergmann for doing a few preliminary reviews. They helped me fix a few issues I had overlooked. The limits (sometimes granularity also) for the filesystems updated here are according to the following table: File system Time type Start year Expiration year Granularity cramfs fixed 0 0 romfs fixed 0 0 pstore ascii seconds (27 digit ascii) S64_MIN S64_MAX 1 coda INT64 S64_MIN S64_MAX 1 omfs 64-bit milliseconds 0 U64_MAX/ 1000 NSEC_PER_MSEC befs unsigned 48-bit seconds 0 0xffffffffffff alloc_super bfs unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super efs unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super ext2 signed 32-bit seconds S32_MIN S32_MAX alloc_super ext3 signed 32-bit seconds S32_MIN S32_MAX alloc_super ext4 (old) signed 32-bit seconds S32_MIN S32_MAX alloc_super ext4 (extra) 34-bit seconds, 30-bit ns S32_MIN 0x37fffffff 1 freevxfs u32 secs/usecs 0 U32_MAX alloc_super jffs2 unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super jfs unsigned 32-bit seconds/ns 0 U32_MAX 1 minix unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super orangefs u64 seconds 0 U64_MAX alloc_super qnx4 unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super qnx6 unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super reiserfs unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super squashfs unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super ufs1 signed 32-bit seconds S32_MIN S32_MAX NSEC_PER_SEC ufs2 signed 64-bit seconds/u32 ns S64_MIN S64_MAX 1 xfs signed 32-bit seconds/ns S32_MIN S32_MAX 1 ceph unsigned 32-bit second/ns 0 U32_MAX 1000 sysv unsigned 32-bit seconds 0 U32_MAX alloc_super affs u32 day, min, ticks 1978 u32_max days NSEC_PER_SEC nfsv2 unsigned 32-bit seconds/ns 0 U32_MAX 1 nfsv3 unsigned 32-bit seconds/ns 0 U32_MAX 1000 nfsv4 u64 seconds/u32 ns S64_MIN S64_MAX 1000 isofs u8 year since 1900 (fixable) 1900 2155 alloc_super hpfs unsigned 32-bit seconds 1970 2106 alloc_super fat 7-bit years, 2s resolution 1980 2107 cifs (smb) 7-bit years 1980 2107 cifs (modern) 64-bit 100ns since 1601 1601 30828 adfs 40-bit cs since 1900 1900 2248 9p (9P2000) unsigned 32-bit seconds 1970 2106 9p (9P2000.L) signed 64-bit seconds, ns 1970 S64_MAX Granularity column filled in by the alloc_super() in the above table indicates that the granularity is NSEC_PER_SEC. Note that anything not mentioned above still has the default limits S64_MIN..S64_MAX. The patches in the series are as structured below: 1. Add vfs support to maintain the limits per filesystem. 2. Add a new timestamp_truncate() api for clamping timestamps according to the filesystem limits. 3. Add a warning for mount syscall to indicate the impending expiry of timestamps. 4. Modify utimes to clamp the timestamps. 5. Fill in limits for filesystems. A test for checking file system timestamp limits has been posted at https://www.spinics.net/lists/fstests/msg12262.html Changes since v7: * Dropped fat modifications from timespec_truncate patch * Leverage timestamp_truncate function in utimes * Added a fix for pstore ramoops timestamps * Added ext4 warning for inodes without room for extended timestamps. * Made mount warning more human readable Changes since v6: * No change in mount behavior because of expiry of timestamps. * Included limits for more filesystems. Changes since v5: * Dropped y2038-specific changes Changes since v4: * Added documentation for boot param Changes since v3: * Remove redundant initializations in libfs.c * Change early_param to __setup similar to other root mount options. * Fix documentation warning Changes since v2: * Introduce early boot param override for checks. * Drop afs patch for timestamp limits. Changes since v1: * return EROFS on mount errors * fix mtime copy/paste error in utimes Deepa Dinamani (20): vfs: Add file timestamp range support vfs: Add timestamp_truncate() api timestamp_truncate: Replace users of timespec64_trunc mount: Add mount warning for impending timestamp expiry utimes: Clamp the timestamps before update fs: Fill in max and min timestamps in superblock 9p: Fill min and max timestamps in sb adfs: Fill in max and min timestamps in sb ext4: Initialize timestamps limits fs: nfs: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs: cifs: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs: fat: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs: affs: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs: sysv: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs: ceph: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs: orangefs: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs: hpfs: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs: omfs: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges pstore: fs superblock limits isofs: Initialize filesystem timestamp ranges fs/9p/vfs_super.c | 6 +++++- fs/adfs/adfs.h | 13 +++++++++++++ fs/adfs/inode.c | 8 ++------ fs/adfs/super.c | 2 ++ fs/affs/amigaffs.c | 2 +- fs/affs/amigaffs.h | 3 +++ fs/affs/inode.c | 4 ++-- fs/affs/super.c | 4 ++++ fs/attr.c | 21 ++++++++++++--------- fs/befs/linuxvfs.c | 2 ++ fs/bfs/inode.c | 2 ++ fs/ceph/super.c | 2 ++ fs/cifs/cifsfs.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ fs/cifs/netmisc.c | 14 +++++++------- fs/coda/inode.c | 3 +++ fs/configfs/inode.c | 12 ++++++------ fs/cramfs/inode.c | 2 ++ fs/efs/super.c | 2 ++ fs/ext2/super.c | 2 ++ fs/ext4/ext4.h | 10 +++++++++- fs/ext4/super.c | 17 +++++++++++++++-- fs/f2fs/file.c | 21 ++++++++++++--------- fs/fat/inode.c | 12 ++++++++++++ fs/freevxfs/vxfs_super.c | 2 ++ fs/hpfs/hpfs_fn.h | 6 ++---- fs/hpfs/super.c | 2 ++ fs/inode.c | 33 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- fs/isofs/inode.c | 7 +++++++ fs/jffs2/fs.c | 3 +++ fs/jfs/super.c | 2 ++ fs/kernfs/inode.c | 7 +++---- fs/minix/inode.c | 2 ++ fs/namespace.c | 33 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- fs/nfs/super.c | 20 +++++++++++++++++++- fs/ntfs/inode.c | 21 ++++++++++++--------- fs/omfs/inode.c | 4 ++++ fs/orangefs/super.c | 2 ++ fs/pstore/ram.c | 2 ++ fs/qnx4/inode.c | 2 ++ fs/qnx6/inode.c | 2 ++ fs/reiserfs/super.c | 3 +++ fs/romfs/super.c | 2 ++ fs/squashfs/super.c | 2 ++ fs/super.c | 2 ++ fs/sysv/super.c | 5 ++++- fs/ubifs/file.c | 21 ++++++++++++--------- fs/ufs/super.c | 7 +++++++ fs/utimes.c | 6 ++---- fs/xfs/xfs_super.c | 2 ++ include/linux/fs.h | 5 +++++ include/linux/time64.h | 2 ++ 51 files changed, 315 insertions(+), 78 deletions(-) -- 2.17.1 Cc: adilger.kernel@xxxxxxxxx Cc: adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx Cc: aivazian.tigran@xxxxxxxxx Cc: al@xxxxxxxxxxx Cc: anna.schumaker@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: anton@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: asmadeus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: ccross@xxxxxxxxxxx Cc: ceph-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: coda@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: codalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: dedekind1@xxxxxxxxx Cc: devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: dsterba@xxxxxxxx Cc: dushistov@xxxxxxx Cc: dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: ericvh@xxxxxxxxx Cc: gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: hch@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: hch@xxxxxx Cc: hirofumi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: hubcap@xxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: idryomov@xxxxxxxxx Cc: jack@xxxxxxxx Cc: jaegeuk@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: jaharkes@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: jfs-discussion@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: jlbec@xxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-cifs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-ext4@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-f2fs-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-karma-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-mtd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-nfs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-ntfs-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-xfs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: lucho@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: luisbg@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: martin@xxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: mikulas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: nico@xxxxxxxxxxx Cc: phillip@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: reiserfs-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: richard@xxxxxx Cc: sage@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: salah.triki@xxxxxxxxx Cc: sfrench@xxxxxxxxx Cc: shaggy@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: tj@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx Cc: trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: tytso@xxxxxxx Cc: v9fs-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: yuchao0@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: zyan@xxxxxxxxxx ______________________________________________________ Linux MTD discussion mailing list http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-mtd/
