3) Supporting multiple types of IOMMUs

If your architecture needs to support multiple types of IOMMUs, you
can use include/linux/asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h. It's a
library to support the DMA API with multiple types of IOMMUs. Lots
of architectures (x86, powerpc, sh, alpha, ia64, microblaze and
sparc) use it. Choose one to see how it can be used. If you need to
support multiple types of IOMMUs in a single system, the example of
x86 or powerpc helps.

When called from get_sb_single, it does NOT have the s_umount lock.
->statfs() has s_umount (shared) when called by ustat(2) (native or
compat), but that's an accident of bad API; s_umount is used to pin
the superblock down when we only have dev_t given us by userland to

deliberate; as soon as struct block_device * is propagated in a reasonable
way by that code fixing will become trivial; until then nothing can be
done.

[mandatory]

block truncatation on error exit from ->write_begin, and ->direct_IO
moved from generic methods (block_write_begin, cont_write_begin,
nobh_write_begin, blockdev_direct_IO*) to callers. Take a look at
ext2_write_failed and callers for an example.

[mandatory]

->truncate is going away. The whole truncate sequence needs to be
implemented in ->setattr, which is now mandatory for filesystems
implementing on-disk size changes. Start with a copy of the old inode_setattr
and vmtruncate, and the reorder the vmtruncate + foofs_vmtruncate sequence to
be in order of zeroing blocks using block_truncate_page or similar helpers,
size update and on finally on-disk truncation which should not fail.
inode_change_ok now includes the size checks for ATTR_SIZE and must be called
in the beginning of ->setattr unconditionally.

[mandatory]

->clear_inode() and ->delete_inode() are gone; ->evict_inode() should
be used instead. It gets called whenever the inode is evicted, whether it has
remaining links or not. Caller does *not* evict the pagecache or inode-associated
metadata buffers; getting rid of those is responsibility of method, as it had
been for ->delete_inode().
->drop_inode() returns int now; it's called on final iput() with inode_lock
held and it returns true if filesystems wants the inode to be dropped. As before,
generic_drop_inode() is still the default and it's been updated appropriately.
generic_delete_inode() is also alive and it consists simply of return 1. Note that
all actual eviction work is done by caller after ->drop_inode() returns.
clear_inode() is gone; use end_writeback() instead. As before, it must
be called exactly once on each call of ->evict_inode() (as it used to be for
each call of ->delete_inode()). Unlike before, if you are using inode-associated
metadata buffers (i.e. mark_buffer_dirty_inode()), it's your responsibility to
call invalidate_inode_buffers() before end_writeback().
No async writeback (and thus no calls of ->write_inode()) will happen
after end_writeback() returns, so actions that should not overlap with ->write_inode()
(e.g. freeing on-disk inode if i_nlink is 0) ought to be done after that call.

NOTE: checking i_nlink in the beginning of ->write_inode() and bailing out
if it's zero is not *and* *never* *had* *been* enough. Final unlink() and iput()
may happen while the inode is in the middle of ->write_inode(); e.g. if you blindly
free the on-disk inode, you may end up doing that while ->write_inode() is writing
to it.
