Piccoli <gpiccoli@igalia.com> I'd like to pick this as a feature for 6.7, it's extending code we already have for metadata_uuid so this is a low risk feature. The only problem I see for now is the name, using the word 'single'. We have single as a block group profile name and a filesystem can exist on a single device too, this is would be confusing when referring to it. Single-dev can be a working name but for a final release we should really try to pick something more unique. I don't have a suggestion for now. The plan for now is that I'll add the patch to a topic branch and add it to for-next so it could be tested but there might be some updates still needed. Either as changes to this patch or as separate patches, that depends.

How about virtual-fsid? I confess I'm not the best (by far!) to name stuff, so I'll be glad to follow a suggestion from anyone here heheh I also agree we could have this merged in your -next tree, and once a new (good) name is proposed, I can re-submit with that and you'd replace the patch in your tree, if that makes sense to you. Of course an extra patch changing the name is also valid, if it's your preference. Cheers, Guilherme

Thanks. I have added cases 1 and 2 in an upcoming patch, and as part of this patch, you could add case 3 as below. Case 4 is just for discussion. 1. Normally fs_devices->fsid == fs_devices->metadata_uuid == sb->fsid; sb->metadata_uuid == 0; 2. BTRFS_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_METADATA_UUID fs_devices->fsid == sb->fsid; fs_devices->metadata_uuid == sb->metadata_uuid; 3. BTRFS_FEATURE_COMPAT_RO_SINGLE_DEV fs_devices->fsid == random(); fs_devices->metadata_uuid = sb->fsid; sb->metadata_uuid == 0; For future development: (ignore for now) 4.

In fact we can make no-scan required for the any fs with the total_devs == 1. I wrote a patch send it out for the review. So no special handling for single-device will be required.

I'm not sure how this would work. In case of the single device we can be sure which device belongs to the filesystem, just need the incompat bit and internal uuid to distinguish it from the others. With multiple devices how could we track which belong to the same filesystem? This is the same problem we already have with scanning and duplicating block devices. The only thing I see is to specify the devices as mount options, possibly with the bit marking the devices as seen but not scanned/registered and never considered for the automatic mount. > virtual-fsid is good. > or > random-fsid I'm thinking about something that would be closer to how the devices' uuids can be duplicated, so cloned_fsid or duplicate_fsid/dup_fsid. Virtual can be anything, random sounds too random.

David / Josef, what do you think? 'virtual-fsid' makes sense for you? Thanks, Guilherme
Hi Anand, thanks for the feedback / review, much appreciated! You're definitely helping a lot with this patch =) On 06/09/2023 13:14, Anand Jain wrote: > [...] >> Anand: the distinction of fsid/metadata_uuid is indeed required on >> btrfs_validate_super() - since we don't write the virtual/rand fsid to >> the disk, and such function operates on the superblock that is read >> from the disk, it fails for the single_dev case unless we condition check >> there - thanks for noticing that though, was interesting to experiment >> and validate =) > > Yep, that makes sense.

Thanks for that, it makes sense for me. What do you mean by "you could add case 3 as below"? I'm already doing that in the code, correct? Or do you mean somehow document that? I guess this could be kinda copy/paste as a comment or in the wiki, for example.

So, regarding the btrfs_parse_device_options(), as per my understanding this a mount option that causes a device scan - so, it is a mount-time operation somehow, correct? But I'm glad to s/true/false and prevent such scanning, if you think it's more appropriate. Now, about "just return success" on device scans, just return 0 then?

In theory, yes. But notice that we have a special situation with SINGLE_DEV - we make use of the metadata_uuid infrastructure *partially*; the in-memory structures are affected, but the superblock is not touched. Now, to support both metadata_uuid and SINGLE_DEV, it means for example that the user wants to mount two identical devices (with metadata_uuid enabled) at same time, which is not currently supported. But then SINGLE_DEV can't use metadata_uuid for that, since this infrastructure is in use already, we'd need to have like a third fsid entity, IIUC. I think this could be achieved but I'm not sure the value for that, and specially in the first iteration of the patch. I'd vote to merge this as simple as possible and maybe extend that in the future to support co-existing metadata_uuid, if that makes sense for some users.

This one? https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/b0e0240254557461c137cd9b943f00b0d5048083.1693959204.git.anand.jain@oracle.com/ OK, seems it does directly affect my patch, if yours is merged I can remove part of the code I'm proposing, which is nice. I'll wait David / Josef feedback on your patch to move on from here, if that's accepted, I'll incorporate yours in my next iteration. -- If possible, could you CC me in your patches related to metadata_uuid and fsid for now, since I'm also working on that? This helps me to be aware of the stuff. For example, looking in the list, I just found: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/0b71460e3a52cf77cd0f7d533e28d2502e285c11.1693820430.git.anand.jain@oracle.com/ This is the perfect place to add the comment above, related to fsid's right? I'll do that in my next version. Thanks, Guilherme

I think). What I mean to convey is that it's possible through alternative methods with certain trade-offs. Personally, I don't prefer the configuration file method, but not all use cases share the same preference. >> virtual-fsid is good. >> or >> random-fsid > > I'm thinking about something that would be closer to how the devices' > uuids can be duplicated, so cloned_fsid or duplicate_fsid/dup_fsid. > Virtual can be anything, random sounds too random. At each mount, the fsid will be different and temporary; it may or may not be a duplicate device. So, I believe temp_fsid, proxy_fsid, or virtual_fsid could represent these configurations. Thanks, Anand

The mention patch has been folded to the scanning/register patch so you may now use misc-next as a base.

Btrfs doesn't currently support to mount 2 different devices holding the same filesystem - the fsid is exposed as a unique identifier by the driver. This case is supported though in some other common filesystems, like ext4. Supporting the same-fsid mounts has the advantage of allowing btrfs to be used in A/B partitioned devices, like mobile phones or the Steam Deck for example. Without this support, it's not safe for users to keep the same "image version" in both A and B partitions, a setup that is quite common for development, for example. Also, as a big bonus, it allows fs integrity check based on block devices for RO devices (whereas currently it is required that both have different fsid, breaking the block device hash comparison). Such same-fsid mounting is hereby added through the usage of the filesystem feature "single-dev" - when such feature is used, btrfs generates a random fsid for the filesystem and leverages the long-term present metadata_uuid infrastructure to enable the usage of this secondary virtual fsid, effectively requiring few non-invasive changes to the code and no new potential corner cases. In order to prevent more code complexity and corner cases, given the nature of this mechanism (single devices), the single-dev feature is not allowed when the metadata_uuid flag is already present on the fs, or if the device is on fsid-change state. Device removal/replace is also disabled for devices presenting the single-dev feature.

Piccoli <gpiccoli@igalia.com> --- V3: - Improve messaging on device replace with SINGLE_DEV devices; it was a bad copy/paste for the removal case. - Added single-dev feature to sysfs features array (caught through the fstests work!). Thanks Anand for confirming that it's necessary. - s/pr_info/btrfs_info and shifted to checking flags inside functions instead of growing their argument list. (Thanks Josef!) - Changed memcmp() comparison to use "!=" ; - Rebased against btrfs/for-next branch, adding the patch "btrfs: simplify alloc_fs_devices() remove arg2" [0] on top. (Thanks Anand!)
