Create some wrapper code around struct super_block so that filesystems have a standard way to queue filesystem metadata and file I/O error reports to have them sent to fsnotify. If a filesystem wants to provide an error number, it must supply only negative error numbers. These are stored internally as negative numbers, but they are converted to positive error numbers before being passed to fanotify, per the fanotify(7) manpage. Implementations of super_operations::report_error are passed the raw internal event data. Note that we have to play some shenanigans with mempools and queue_work so that the error handling doesn't happen outside of process context, and the event handler functions (both ->report_error and fsnotify) can handle file I/O error messages without having to worry about whatever locks might be held. This asynchronicity requires that unmount wait for pending events to clear. Add a new callback to the superblock operations structure so that filesystem drivers can themselves respond to file I/O errors if they so desire. This will be used for an upcoming self-healing patchset for XFS. Suggested-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
