Moved, renamed, and deleted files

The original directory structure was scattered and unorganized.
Changes are basically to make it look like kernel structure.

+config NTFS_FS
+	tristate "NTFS file system support"
+	select NLS
+	help
+	  NTFS is the file system of Microsoft Windows NT, 2000, XP and 2003.
+
+	  Saying Y or M here enables read support.  There is partial, but
+	  safe, write support available.  For write support you must also
+	  say Y to "NTFS write support" below.
+
+	  There are also a number of user-space tools available, called
+	  ntfsprogs.  These include ntfsundelete and ntfsresize, that work
+	  without NTFS support enabled in the kernel.
+
+	  This is a rewrite from scratch of Linux NTFS support and replaced
+	  the old NTFS code starting with Linux 2.5.11.  A backport to
+	  the Linux 2.4 kernel series is separately available as a patch
+	  from the project web site.
+
+	  For more information see <file:Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt>
+	  and <http://www.linux-ntfs.org/>.
+
+	  To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
+	  module will be called ntfs.
+
+	  If you are not using Windows NT, 2000, XP or 2003 in addition to
+	  Linux on your computer it is safe to say N.
+
+config NTFS_DEBUG
+	bool "NTFS debugging support"
+	depends on NTFS_FS
+	help
+	  If you are experiencing any problems with the NTFS file system, say
+	  Y here.  This will result in additional consistency checks to be
+	  performed by the driver as well as additional debugging messages to
+	  be written to the system log.  Note that debugging messages are
+	  disabled by default.  To enable them, supply the option debug_msgs=1
+	  at the kernel command line when booting the kernel or as an option
+	  to insmod when loading the ntfs module.  Once the driver is active,
+	  you can enable debugging messages by doing (as root):
+	  echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/ntfs-debug
+	  Replacing the "1" with "0" would disable debug messages.
+
+	  If you leave debugging messages disabled, this results in little
+	  overhead, but enabling debug messages results in very significant
+	  slowdown of the system.
+
+	  When reporting bugs, please try to have available a full dump of
+	  debugging messages while the misbehaviour was occurring.
+
+config NTFS_RW
+	bool "NTFS write support"
+	depends on NTFS_FS
+	help
+	  This enables the partial, but safe, write support in the NTFS driver.
+
+	  The only supported operation is overwriting existing files, without
+	  changing the file length.  No file or directory creation, deletion or
+	  renaming is possible.  Note only non-resident files can be written to
+	  so you may find that some very small files (<500 bytes or so) cannot
+	  be written to.
+
+	  While we cannot guarantee that it will not damage any data, we have
+	  so far not received a single report where the driver would have
+	  damaged someones data so we assume it is perfectly safe to use.
+
+	  Note:  While write support is safe in this version (a rewrite from
+	  scratch of the NTFS support), it should be noted that the old NTFS
+	  write support, included in Linux 2.5.10 and before (since 1997),
+	  is not safe.
+
+	  This is currently useful with TopologiLinux.  TopologiLinux is run
+	  on top of any DOS/Microsoft Windows system without partitioning your
+	  hard disk.  Unlike other Linux distributions TopologiLinux does not
+	  need its own partition.  For more information see
+	  <http://topologi-linux.sourceforge.net/>
+
+	  It is perfectly safe to say N here.

+ * If the page belongs to an mst protected attribute and it is marked as such

+ * error checking is performed.  This means the caller has to verify whether

+ *
+ * The unlocked and uptodate page is returned on success or an encoded error
+ * on failure. Caller has to test for error using the IS_ERR() macro on the

+ *
+ * If the attribute is found, ntfs_attr_find() returns 0 and @ctx->attr will

+ *
+ * If the attribute is not found, ntfs_attr_find() returns -ENOENT and
+ * @ctx->attr will point to the attribute before which the attribute being
+ * searched for would need to be inserted if such an action were to be desired.
+ *
+ * On actual error, ntfs_attr_find() returns -EIO.  In this case @ctx->attr is
+ * undefined and in particular do not rely on it not changing.
+ *
+ * If @ctx->is_first is 'true', the search begins with @ctx->attr itself.  If it
+ * is 'false', the search begins after @ctx->attr.
+ *
+ * If @ic is IGNORE_CASE, the @name comparisson is not case sensitive and
+ * @ctx->ntfs_ino must be set to the ntfs inode to which the mft record
+ * @ctx->mrec belongs.  This is so we can get at the ntfs volume and hence at
+ * the upcase table.  If @ic is CASE_SENSITIVE, the comparison is case
+ * sensitive.  When @name is present, @name_len is the @name length in Unicode

+ *
+ * If @name is not present (NULL), we assume that the unnamed attribute is

+ *
+ * ntfs_attr_find() only searches the specified mft record and it ignores the

+ * use ntfs_attr_lookup() instead (see below).  This also means that you cannot
+ * use ntfs_attr_find() to search for extent records of non-resident
+ * attributes, as extents with lowest_vcn != 0 are usually described by the
+ * attribute list attribute only. - Note that it is possible that the first
+ * extent is only in the attribute list while the last extent is in the base
+ * mft record, so do not rely on being able to find the first extent in the

+ * @val_len:	attribute value length
+ * @ctx:	search context with mft record and attribute to search from
+ *
+ * You should not need to call this function directly.  Use ntfs_attr_lookup()
+ * instead.
+ *
+ * Find an attribute by searching the attribute list for the corresponding
+ * attribute list entry.  Having found the entry, map the mft record if the
+ * attribute is in a different mft record/inode, ntfs_attr_find() the attribute
+ * in there and return it.
+ *
+ * On first search @ctx->ntfs_ino must be the base mft record and @ctx must
+ * have been obtained from a call to ntfs_attr_get_search_ctx().  On subsequent
+ * calls @ctx->ntfs_ino can be any extent inode, too (@ctx->base_ntfs_ino is
+ * then the base inode).
+ *
+ * After finishing with the attribute/mft record you need to call
+ * ntfs_attr_put_search_ctx() to cleanup the search context (unmapping any
+ * mapped inodes, etc).
+ *
+ * If the attribute is found, ntfs_external_attr_find() returns 0 and
+ * @ctx->attr will point to the found attribute.  @ctx->mrec will point to the
+ * mft record in which @ctx->attr is located and @ctx->al_entry will point to
+ * the attribute list entry for the attribute.
+ *
+ * If the attribute is not found, ntfs_external_attr_find() returns -ENOENT and
+ * @ctx->attr will point to the attribute in the base mft record before which
+ * the attribute being searched for would need to be inserted if such an action
+ * were to be desired.  @ctx->mrec will point to the mft record in which
+ * @ctx->attr is located and @ctx->al_entry will point to the attribute list
+ * entry of the attribute before which the attribute being searched for would
+ * need to be inserted if such an action were to be desired.
+ *
+ * Thus to insert the not found attribute, one wants to add the attribute to
+ * @ctx->mrec (the base mft record) and if there is not enough space, the
+ * attribute should be placed in a newly allocated extent mft record.  The
+ * attribute list entry for the inserted attribute should be inserted in the
+ * attribute list attribute at @ctx->al_entry.

+ * ntfs_attr_extend_allocation - extend the allocated space of an attribute
+ * @ni:			ntfs inode of the attribute whose allocation to extend
+ * @new_alloc_size:	new size in bytes to which to extend the allocation to
+ * @new_data_size:	new size in bytes to which to extend the data to
+ * @data_start:		beginning of region which is required to be non-sparse
+ *
+ * Extend the allocated space of an attribute described by the ntfs inode @ni
+ * to @new_alloc_size bytes.  If @data_start is -1, the whole extension may be
+ * implemented as a hole in the file (as long as both the volume and the ntfs
+ * inode @ni have sparse support enabled).  If @data_start is >= 0, then the
+ * region between the old allocated size and @data_start - 1 may be made sparse
+ * but the regions between @data_start and @new_alloc_size must be backed by
+ * actual clusters.
+ *
+ * If @new_data_size is -1, it is ignored.  If it is >= 0, then the data size
+ * of the attribute is extended to @new_data_size.  Note that the i_size of the
+ * vfs inode is not updated.  Only the data size in the base attribute record
+ * is updated.  The caller has to update i_size separately if this is required.
+ * WARNING: It is a BUG() for @new_data_size to be smaller than the old data
+ * size as well as for @new_data_size to be greater than @new_alloc_size.
+ *
+ * For resident attributes this involves resizing the attribute record and if
+ * necessary moving it and/or other attributes into extent mft records and/or
+ * converting the attribute to a non-resident attribute which in turn involves
+ * extending the allocation of a non-resident attribute as described below.
+ *
+ * For non-resident attributes this involves allocating clusters in the data
+ * zone on the volume (except for regions that are being made sparse) and
+ * extending the run list to describe the allocated clusters as well as
+ * updating the mapping pairs array of the attribute.  This in turn involves
+ * resizing the attribute record and if necessary moving it and/or other
+ * attributes into extent mft records and/or splitting the attribute record
+ * into multiple extent attribute records.
+ *
+ * Also, the attribute list attribute is updated if present and in some of the
+ * above cases (the ones where extent mft records/attributes come into play),
+ * an attribute list attribute is created if not already present.
+ *
+ * Return the new allocated size on success and -errno on error.  In the case
+ * that an error is encountered but a partial extension at least up to
+ * @data_start (if present) is possible, the allocation is partially extended
+ * and this is returned.  This means the caller must check the returned size to
+ * determine if the extension was partial.  If @data_start is -1 then partial
+ * allocations are not performed.
+ *
+ * WARNING: Do not call ntfs_attr_extend_allocation() for $MFT/$DATA.
+ *
+ * Locking: This function takes the runlist lock of @ni for writing as well as
+ * locking the mft record of the base ntfs inode.  These locks are maintained
+ * throughout execution of the function.  These locks are required so that the
+ * attribute can be resized safely and so that it can for example be converted
+ * from resident to non-resident safely.
+ *
+ * TODO: At present attribute list attribute handling is not implemented.
+ *
+ * TODO: At present it is not safe to call this function for anything other
+ * than the $DATA attribute(s) of an uncompressed and unencrypted file.

+ * attribute is known to be non-resident, not encrypted, but compressed.
+ *
+ * 1. Determine which compression block(s) @page is in.
+ * 2. Get hold of all pages corresponding to this/these compression block(s).
+ * 3. Read the (first) compression block.
+ * 4. Decompress it into the corresponding pages.
+ * 5. Throw the compressed data away and proceed to 3. for the next compression
+ *    block or return success if no more compression blocks left.
+ *
+ * Warning: We have to be careful what we do about existing pages. They might
+ * have been written to so that we would lose data if we were to just overwrite
+ * them with the out-of-date uncompressed data.
+ *
+ * FIXME: For PAGE_CACHE_SIZE > cb_size we are not doing the Right Thing(TM) at
+ * the end of the file I think. We need to detect this case and zero the out
+ * of bounds remainder of the page in question and mark it as handled. At the

+ * apparent if pages are above 8kiB and the NTFS volume only uses 512 byte
+ * clusters so is probably not going to be seen by anyone. Still this should
+ * be fixed. (AIA)
+ *
+ * FIXME: Again for PAGE_CACHE_SIZE > cb_size we are screwing up both in
+ * handling sparse and compressed cbs. (AIA)
+ *
+ * FIXME: At the moment we don't do any zeroing out in the case that

+ *
+ * Look for an inode with name @uname in the directory with inode @dir_ni.
+ * ntfs_lookup_inode_by_name() walks the contents of the directory looking for
+ * the Unicode name. If the name is found in the directory, the corresponding
+ * inode number (>= 0) is returned as a mft reference in cpu format, i.e. it
+ * is a 64-bit number containing the sequence number.
+ *
+ * On error, a negative value is returned corresponding to the error code. In
+ * particular if the inode is not found -ENOENT is returned. Note that you
+ * can't just check the return value for being negative, you have to check the
+ * inode number for being negative which you can extract using MREC(return
+ * value).
+ *
+ * Note, @uname_len does not include the (optional) terminating NULL character.
+ *
+ * Note, we look for a case sensitive match first but we also look for a case
+ * insensitive match at the same time. If we find a case insensitive match, we
+ * save that for the case that we don't find an exact match, where we return
+ * the case insensitive match and setup @res (which we allocate!) with the mft
+ * reference, the file name type, length and with a copy of the little endian
+ * Unicode file name itself. If we match a file name which is in the DOS name
+ * space, we only return the mft reference and file name type in @res.
+ * ntfs_lookup() then uses this to find the long file name in the inode itself.
+ * This is to avoid polluting the dcache with short file names. We want them to
+ * work but we don't care for how quickly one can access them. This also fixes
+ * the dcache aliasing issues.
+ *
+ * Locking:  - Caller must hold i_mutex on the directory.
+ *	     - Each page cache page in the index allocation mapping must be
+ *	       locked whilst being accessed otherwise we may find a corrupt
+ *	       page due to it being under ->writepage at the moment which
+ *	       applies the mst protection fixups before writing out and then
+ *	       removes them again after the write is complete after which it 
+ *	       unlocks the page.

+ * @lru_pvec:		lru-buffering pagevec of the caller

+ * the non-resident attribute case, it may not fall below the initialized size.
+ *
+ * Note that if the attribute is resident, we do not need to touch the page
+ * cache at all.  This is because if the page cache page is not uptodate we
+ * bring it uptodate later, when doing the write to the mft record since we
+ * then already have the page mapped.  And if the page is uptodate, the
+ * non-initialized region will already have been zeroed when the page was
+ * brought uptodate and the region may in fact already have been overwritten
+ * with new data via mmap() based writes, so we cannot just zero it.  And since
+ * POSIX specifies that the behaviour of resizing a file whilst it is mmap()ped
+ * is unspecified, we choose not to do zeroing and thus we do not need to touch
+ * the page at all.  For a more detailed explanation see ntfs_truncate() in
+ * fs/ntfs/inode.c.
+ *
+ * Return 0 on success and -errno on error.  In the case that an error is
+ * encountered it is possible that the initialized size will already have been
+ * incremented some way towards @new_init_size but it is guaranteed that if
+ * this is the case, the necessary zeroing will also have happened and that all

+ * @base_vi:	base inode
+ * @vi:		index inode to read
+ *
+ * ntfs_read_locked_index_inode() is called from ntfs_index_iget() to read the
+ * index inode described by @vi into memory from the base mft record described
+ * by @base_ni.
+ *
+ * ntfs_read_locked_index_inode() maps, pins and locks the base inode for
+ * reading and looks up the attributes relating to the index described by @vi
+ * before setting up the necessary fields in @vi as well as initializing the
+ * ntfs inode.
+ *
+ * Note, index inodes are essentially attribute inodes (NInoAttr() is true)
+ * with the attribute type set to AT_INDEX_ALLOCATION.  Apart from that, they
+ * are setup like directory inodes since directories are a special case of
+ * indices ao they need to be treated in much the same way.  Most importantly,
+ * for small indices the index allocation attribute might not actually exist.
+ * However, the index root attribute always exists but this does not need to
+ * have an inode associated with it and this is why we define a new inode type
+ * index.  Also, like for directories, we need to have an attribute inode for
+ * the bitmap attribute corresponding to the index allocation attribute and we
+ * can store this in the appropriate field of the inode, just like we do for
+ * normal directory inodes.
+ *
+ * Q: What locks are held when the function is called?
+ * A: i_state has I_NEW set, hence the inode is locked, also
+ *    i_count is set to 1, so it is not going to go away
+ *
+ * Return 0 on success and -errno on error.  In the error case, the inode will
+ * have had make_bad_inode() executed on it.

+ * COLLATION_NTOFS_SID - Sorting is done according to ascending SID values.

+ *	values and second by ascending security_id values. E.g. used for $SDH
+ *	index in FILE_Secure.
+ * COLLATION_NTOFS_ULONGS - Sorting is done according to a sequence of ascending
+ *	le32 key values. E.g. used for $O index in FILE_Extend/$ObjId, which
+ *	sorts by object_id (16-byte), by splitting up the object_id in four
+ *	le32 values and using them as individual keys. E.g. take the following
+ *	two security_ids, stored as follows on disk:
+ *		1st: a1 61 65 b7 65 7b d4 11 9e 3d 00 e0 81 10 42 59
+ *		2nd: 38 14 37 d2 d2 f3 d4 11 a5 21 c8 6b 79 b1 97 45
+ *	To compare them, they are split into four le32 values each, like so:
+ *		1st: 0xb76561a1 0x11d47b65 0xe0003d9e 0x59421081
+ *		2nd: 0xd2371438 0x11d4f3d2 0x6bc821a5 0x4597b179
+ *	Now, it is apparent why the 2nd object_id collates after the 1st: the
+ *	first le32 value of the 1st object_id is less than the first le32 of

+ * Attribute compression.
+ *
+ * Only the data attribute is ever compressed in the current ntfs driver in
+ * Windows. Further, compression is only applied when the data attribute is
+ * non-resident. Finally, to use compression, the maximum allowed cluster size
+ * on a volume is 4kib.
+ *
+ * The compression method is based on independently compressing blocks of X
+ * clusters, where X is determined from the compression_unit value found in the
+ * non-resident attribute record header (more precisely: X = 2^compression_unit
+ * clusters). On Windows NT/2k, X always is 16 clusters (compression_unit = 4).
+ *
+ * There are three different cases of how a compression block of X clusters
+ * can be stored:
+ *
+ *   1) The data in the block is all zero (a sparse block):
+ *	  This is stored as a sparse block in the runlist, i.e. the runlist
+ *	  entry has length = X and lcn = -1. The mapping pairs array actually
+ *	  uses a delta_lcn value length of 0, i.e. delta_lcn is not present at
+ *	  all, which is then interpreted by the driver as lcn = -1.
+ *	  NOTE: Even uncompressed files can be sparse on NTFS 3.0 volumes, then
+ *	  the same principles apply as above, except that the length is not
+ *	  restricted to being any particular value.
+ *
+ *   2) The data in the block is not compressed:
+ *	  This happens when compression doesn't reduce the size of the block
+ *	  in clusters. I.e. if compression has a small effect so that the
+ *	  compressed data still occupies X clusters, then the uncompressed data
+ *	  is stored in the block.
+ *	  This case is recognised by the fact that the runlist entry has
+ *	  length = X and lcn >= 0. The mapping pairs array stores this as
+ *	  normal with a run length of X and some specific delta_lcn, i.e.
+ *	  delta_lcn has to be present.
+ *
+ *   3) The data in the block is compressed:
+ *	  The common case. This case is recognised by the fact that the run
+ *	  list entry has length L < X and lcn >= 0. The mapping pairs array
+ *	  stores this as normal with a run length of X and some specific
+ *	  delta_lcn, i.e. delta_lcn has to be present. This runlist entry is
+ *	  immediately followed by a sparse entry with length = X - L and
+ *	  lcn = -1. The latter entry is to make up the vcn counting to the
+ *	  full compression block size X.
+ *
+ * In fact, life is more complicated because adjacent entries of the same type
+ * can be coalesced. This means that one has to keep track of the number of
+ * clusters handled and work on a basis of X clusters at a time being one
+ * block. An example: if length L > X this means that this particular runlist
+ * entry contains a block of length X and part of one or more blocks of length
+ * L - X. Another example: if length L < X, this does not necessarily mean that
+ * the block is compressed as it might be that the lcn changes inside the block
+ * and hence the following runlist entry describes the continuation of the
+ * potentially compressed block. The block would be compressed if the
+ * following runlist entry describes at least X - L sparse clusters, thus
+ * making up the compression block length as described in point 3 above. (Of
+ * course, there can be several runlist entries with small lengths so that the
+ * sparse entry does not follow the first data containing entry with
+ * length < X.)
+ *
+ * NOTE: At the end of the compressed attribute value, there most likely is not
+ * just the right amount of data to make up a compression block, thus this data
+ * is not even attempted to be compressed. It is just stored as is, unless
+ * the number of clusters it occupies is reduced when compressed in which case
+ * it is stored as a compressed compression block, complete with sparse
+ * clusters at the end.

+ * @count:	number of clusters to allocate
+ * @start_lcn:	starting lcn at which to allocate the clusters (or -1 if none)
+ * @zone:	zone from which to allocate the clusters
+ * @is_extension:	if 'true', this is an attribute extension
+ *
+ * Allocate @count clusters preferably starting at cluster @start_lcn or at the
+ * current allocator position if @start_lcn is -1, on the mounted ntfs volume
+ * @vol. @zone is either DATA_ZONE for allocation of normal clusters or
+ * MFT_ZONE for allocation of clusters for the master file table, i.e. the
+ * $MFT/$DATA attribute.
+ *
+ * @start_vcn specifies the vcn of the first allocated cluster.  This makes
+ * merging the resulting runlist with the old runlist easier.
+ *
+ * If @is_extension is 'true', the caller is allocating clusters to extend an
+ * attribute and if it is 'false', the caller is allocating clusters to fill a
+ * hole in an attribute.  Practically the difference is that if @is_extension
+ * is 'true' the returned runlist will be terminated with LCN_ENOENT and if
+ * @is_extension is 'false' the runlist will be terminated with
+ * LCN_RL_NOT_MAPPED.
+ *
+ * You need to check the return value with IS_ERR().  If this is false, the
+ * function was successful and the return value is a runlist describing the
+ * allocated cluster(s).  If IS_ERR() is true, the function failed and
+ * PTR_ERR() gives you the error code.
+ *
+ * Notes on the allocation algorithm
+ * =================================
+ *
+ * There are two data zones.  First is the area between the end of the mft zone
+ * and the end of the volume, and second is the area between the start of the
+ * volume and the start of the mft zone.  On unmodified/standard NTFS 1.x
+ * volumes, the second data zone does not exist due to the mft zone being
+ * expanded to cover the start of the volume in order to reserve space for the
+ * mft bitmap attribute.
+ *
+ * This is not the prettiest function but the complexity stems from the need of
+ * implementing the mft vs data zoned approach and from the fact that we have
+ * access to the lcn bitmap in portions of up to 8192 bytes at a time, so we
+ * need to cope with crossing over boundaries of two buffers.  Further, the
+ * fact that the allocator allows for caller supplied hints as to the location
+ * of where allocation should begin and the fact that the allocator keeps track
+ * of where in the data zones the next natural allocation should occur,
+ * contribute to the complexity of the function.  But it should all be
+ * worthwhile, because this allocator should: 1) be a full implementation of
+ * the MFT zone approach used by Windows NT, 2) cause reduction in
+ * fragmentation, and 3) be speedy in allocations (the code is not optimized
+ * for speed, but the algorithm is, so further speed improvements are probably
+ * possible).
+ *
+ * FIXME: We should be monitoring cluster allocation and increment the MFT zone
+ * size dynamically but this is something for the future.  We will just cause
+ * heavier fragmentation by not doing it and I am not even sure Windows would
+ * grow the MFT zone dynamically, so it might even be correct not to do this.
+ * The overhead in doing dynamic MFT zone expansion would be very large and
+ * unlikely worth the effort. (AIA)
+ *
+ * TODO: I have added in double the required zone position pointer wrap around
+ * logic which can be optimized to having only one of the two logic sets.
+ * However, having the double logic will work fine, but if we have only one of
+ * the sets and we get it wrong somewhere, then we get into trouble, so
+ * removing the duplicate logic requires _very_ careful consideration of _all_
+ * possible code paths.  So at least for now, I am leaving the double logic -
+ * better safe than sorry... (AIA)
+ *
+ * Locking: - The volume lcn bitmap must be unlocked on entry and is unlocked
+ *	      on return.
+ *	    - This function takes the volume lcn bitmap lock for writing and
+ *	      modifies the bitmap contents.

+/**
+ * __ntfs_cluster_free - free clusters on an ntfs volume
+ * @ni:		ntfs inode whose runlist describes the clusters to free
+ * @start_vcn:	vcn in the runlist of @ni at which to start freeing clusters
+ * @count:	number of clusters to free or -1 for all clusters
+ * @ctx:	active attribute search context if present or NULL if not
+ * @is_rollback:	true if this is a rollback operation
+ *
+ * Free @count clusters starting at the cluster @start_vcn in the runlist
+ * described by the vfs inode @ni.
+ *
+ * If @count is -1, all clusters from @start_vcn to the end of the runlist are
+ * deallocated.  Thus, to completely free all clusters in a runlist, use
+ * @start_vcn = 0 and @count = -1.
+ *
+ * If @ctx is specified, it is an active search context of @ni and its base mft
+ * record.  This is needed when __ntfs_cluster_free() encounters unmapped
+ * runlist fragments and allows their mapping.  If you do not have the mft
+ * record mapped, you can specify @ctx as NULL and __ntfs_cluster_free() will
+ * perform the necessary mapping and unmapping.
+ *
+ * Note, __ntfs_cluster_free() saves the state of @ctx on entry and restores it
+ * before returning.  Thus, @ctx will be left pointing to the same attribute on
+ * return as on entry.  However, the actual pointers in @ctx may point to
+ * different memory locations on return, so you must remember to reset any
+ * cached pointers from the @ctx, i.e. after the call to __ntfs_cluster_free(),
+ * you will probably want to do:
+ *	m = ctx->mrec;
+ *	a = ctx->attr;
+ * Assuming you cache ctx->attr in a variable @a of type ATTR_RECORD * and that
+ * you cache ctx->mrec in a variable @m of type MFT_RECORD *.
+ *
+ * @is_rollback should always be 'false', it is for internal use to rollback
+ * errors.  You probably want to use ntfs_cluster_free() instead.
+ *
+ * Note, __ntfs_cluster_free() does not modify the runlist, so you have to
+ * remove from the runlist or mark sparse the freed runs later.
+ *
+ * Return the number of deallocated clusters (not counting sparse ones) on
+ * success and -errno on error.
+ *
+ * WARNING: If @ctx is supplied, regardless of whether success or failure is
+ *	    returned, you need to check IS_ERR(@ctx->mrec) and if 'true' the @ctx
+ *	    is no longer valid, i.e. you need to either call
+ *	    ntfs_attr_reinit_search_ctx() or ntfs_attr_put_search_ctx() on it.
+ *	    In that case PTR_ERR(@ctx->mrec) will give you the error code for
+ *	    why the mapping of the old inode failed.
+ *
+ * Locking: - The runlist described by @ni must be locked for writing on entry
+ *	      and is locked on return.  Note the runlist may be modified when
+ *	      needed runlist fragments need to be mapped.
+ *	    - The volume lcn bitmap must be unlocked on entry and is unlocked
+ *	      on return.
+ *	    - This function takes the volume lcn bitmap lock for writing and
+ *	      modifies the bitmap contents.
+ *	    - If @ctx is NULL, the base mft record of @ni must not be mapped on
+ *	      entry and it will be left unmapped on return.
+ *	    - If @ctx is not NULL, the base mft record must be mapped on entry
+ *	      and it will be left mapped on return.

+ * ntfs_cluster_free - free clusters on an ntfs volume
+ * @ni:		ntfs inode whose runlist describes the clusters to free
+ * @start_vcn:	vcn in the runlist of @ni at which to start freeing clusters
+ * @count:	number of clusters to free or -1 for all clusters
+ * @ctx:	active attribute search context if present or NULL if not
+ *
+ * Free @count clusters starting at the cluster @start_vcn in the runlist
+ * described by the ntfs inode @ni.
+ *
+ * If @count is -1, all clusters from @start_vcn to the end of the runlist are
+ * deallocated.  Thus, to completely free all clusters in a runlist, use
+ * @start_vcn = 0 and @count = -1.
+ *
+ * If @ctx is specified, it is an active search context of @ni and its base mft
+ * record.  This is needed when ntfs_cluster_free() encounters unmapped runlist
+ * fragments and allows their mapping.  If you do not have the mft record
+ * mapped, you can specify @ctx as NULL and ntfs_cluster_free() will perform
+ * the necessary mapping and unmapping.
+ *
+ * Note, ntfs_cluster_free() saves the state of @ctx on entry and restores it
+ * before returning.  Thus, @ctx will be left pointing to the same attribute on
+ * return as on entry.  However, the actual pointers in @ctx may point to
+ * different memory locations on return, so you must remember to reset any
+ * cached pointers from the @ctx, i.e. after the call to ntfs_cluster_free(),
+ * you will probably want to do:
+ *	m = ctx->mrec;
+ *	a = ctx->attr;
+ * Assuming you cache ctx->attr in a variable @a of type ATTR_RECORD * and that
+ * you cache ctx->mrec in a variable @m of type MFT_RECORD *.
+ *
+ * Note, ntfs_cluster_free() does not modify the runlist, so you have to remove
+ * from the runlist or mark sparse the freed runs later.
+ *
+ * Return the number of deallocated clusters (not counting sparse ones) on
+ * success and -errno on error.
+ *
+ * WARNING: If @ctx is supplied, regardless of whether success or failure is
+ *	    returned, you need to check IS_ERR(@ctx->mrec) and if 'true' the @ctx
+ *	    is no longer valid, i.e. you need to either call
+ *	    ntfs_attr_reinit_search_ctx() or ntfs_attr_put_search_ctx() on it.
+ *	    In that case PTR_ERR(@ctx->mrec) will give you the error code for
+ *	    why the mapping of the old inode failed.
+ *
+ * Locking: - The runlist described by @ni must be locked for writing on entry
+ *	      and is locked on return.  Note the runlist may be modified when
+ *	      needed runlist fragments need to be mapped.
+ *	    - The volume lcn bitmap must be unlocked on entry and is unlocked
+ *	      on return.
+ *	    - This function takes the volume lcn bitmap lock for writing and
+ *	      modifies the bitmap contents.
+ *	    - If @ctx is NULL, the base mft record of @ni must not be mapped on
+ *	      entry and it will be left unmapped on return.
+ *	    - If @ctx is not NULL, the base mft record must be mapped on entry

+ * @ni:		ntfs inode whose MFT record to map
+ *
+ * First, take the mrec_lock mutex.  We might now be sleeping, while waiting
+ * for the mutex if it was already locked by someone else.
+ *
+ * The page of the record is mapped using map_mft_record_page() before being
+ * returned to the caller.
+ *
+ * This in turn uses ntfs_map_page() to get the page containing the wanted mft
+ * record (it in turn calls read_cache_page() which reads it in from disk if
+ * necessary, increments the use count on the page so that it cannot disappear
+ * under us and returns a reference to the page cache page).
+ *
+ * If read_cache_page() invokes ntfs_readpage() to load the page from disk, it
+ * sets PG_locked and clears PG_uptodate on the page. Once I/O has completed
+ * and the post-read mst fixups on each mft record in the page have been
+ * performed, the page gets PG_uptodate set and PG_locked cleared (this is done
+ * in our asynchronous I/O completion handler end_buffer_read_mft_async()).
+ * ntfs_map_page() waits for PG_locked to become clear and checks if
+ * PG_uptodate is set and returns an error code if not. This provides
+ * sufficient protection against races when reading/using the page.
+ *
+ * However there is the write mapping to think about. Doing the above described
+ * checking here will be fine, because when initiating the write we will set
+ * PG_locked and clear PG_uptodate making sure nobody is touching the page
+ * contents. Doing the locking this way means that the commit to disk code in
+ * the page cache code paths is automatically sufficiently locked with us as
+ * we will not touch a page that has been locked or is not uptodate. The only
+ * locking problem then is them locking the page while we are accessing it.
+ *
+ * So that code will end up having to own the mrec_lock of all mft
+ * records/inodes present in the page before I/O can proceed. In that case we
+ * wouldn't need to bother with PG_locked and PG_uptodate as nobody will be
+ * accessing anything without owning the mrec_lock mutex.  But we do need to
+ * use them because of the read_cache_page() invocation and the code becomes so
+ * much simpler this way that it is well worth it.
+ *
+ * The mft record is now ours and we return a pointer to it. You need to check
+ * the returned pointer with IS_ERR() and if that is true, PTR_ERR() will return
+ * the error code.
+ *
+ * NOTE: Caller is responsible for setting the mft record dirty before calling
+ * unmap_mft_record(). This is obviously only necessary if the caller really
+ * modified the mft record...
+ * Q: Do we want to recycle one of the VFS inode state bits instead?

+ *
+ * Check if the mapped (base or extent) mft record @m with mft record number
+ * @mft_no belonging to the ntfs volume @vol may be written out.  If necessary
+ * and possible the ntfs inode of the mft record is locked and the base vfs
+ * inode is pinned.  The locked ntfs inode is then returned in @locked_ni.  The
+ * caller is responsible for unlocking the ntfs inode and unpinning the base
+ * vfs inode.
+ *
+ * Return 'true' if the mft record may be written out and 'false' if not.
+ *
+ * The caller has locked the page and cleared the uptodate flag on it which
+ * means that we can safely write out any dirty mft records that do not have
+ * their inodes in icache as determined by ilookup5() as anyone
+ * opening/creating such an inode would block when attempting to map the mft
+ * record in read_cache_page() until we are finished with the write out.
+ *
+ * Here is a description of the tests we perform:
+ *
+ * If the inode is found in icache we know the mft record must be a base mft
+ * record.  If it is dirty, we do not write it and return 'false' as the vfs
+ * inode write paths will result in the access times being updated which would
+ * cause the base mft record to be redirtied and written out again.  (We know
+ * the access time update will modify the base mft record because Windows
+ * chkdsk complains if the standard information attribute is not in the base
+ * mft record.)
+ *
+ * If the inode is in icache and not dirty, we attempt to lock the mft record
+ * and if we find the lock was already taken, it is not safe to write the mft
+ * record and we return 'false'.
+ *
+ * If we manage to obtain the lock we have exclusive access to the mft record,
+ * which also allows us safe writeout of the mft record.  We then set
+ * @locked_ni to the locked ntfs inode and return 'true'.
+ *
+ * Note we cannot just lock the mft record and sleep while waiting for the lock
+ * because this would deadlock due to lock reversal (normally the mft record is
+ * locked before the page is locked but we already have the page locked here
+ * when we try to lock the mft record).
+ *
+ * If the inode is not in icache we need to perform further checks.
+ *
+ * If the mft record is not a FILE record or it is a base mft record, we can
+ * safely write it and return 'true'.
+ *
+ * We now know the mft record is an extent mft record.  We check if the inode
+ * corresponding to its base mft record is in icache and obtain a reference to
+ * it if it is.  If it is not, we can safely write it and return 'true'.
+ *
+ * We now have the base inode for the extent mft record.  We check if it has an
+ * ntfs inode for the extent mft record attached and if not it is safe to write
+ * the extent mft record and we return 'true'.
+ *
+ * The ntfs inode for the extent mft record is attached to the base inode so we
+ * attempt to lock the extent mft record and if we find the lock was already
+ * taken, it is not safe to write the extent mft record and we return 'false'.
+ *
+ * If we manage to obtain the lock we have exclusive access to the extent mft
+ * record, which also allows us safe writeout of the extent mft record.  We
+ * set the ntfs inode of the extent mft record clean and then set @locked_ni to
+ * the now locked ntfs inode and return 'true'.
+ *
+ * Note, the reason for actually writing dirty mft records here and not just
+ * relying on the vfs inode dirty code paths is that we can have mft records
+ * modified without them ever having actual inodes in memory.  Also we can have
+ * dirty mft records with clean ntfs inodes in memory.  None of the described
+ * cases would result in the dirty mft records being written out if we only
+ * relied on the vfs inode dirty code paths.  And these cases can really occur
+ * during allocation of new mft records and in particular when the
+ * initialized_size of the $MFT/$DATA attribute is extended and the new space
+ * is initialized using ntfs_mft_record_format().  The clean inode can then
+ * appear if the mft record is reused for a new inode before it got written
+ * out.

+ * ntfs_mft_record_alloc - allocate an mft record on an ntfs volume
+ * @vol:	[IN]  volume on which to allocate the mft record
+ * @mode:	[IN]  mode if want a file or directory, i.e. base inode or 0
+ * @base_ni:	[IN]  open base inode if allocating an extent mft record or NULL
+ * @mrec:	[OUT] on successful return this is the mapped mft record
+ *
+ * Allocate an mft record in $MFT/$DATA of an open ntfs volume @vol.
+ *
+ * If @base_ni is NULL make the mft record a base mft record, i.e. a file or
+ * direvctory inode, and allocate it at the default allocator position.  In
+ * this case @mode is the file mode as given to us by the caller.  We in
+ * particular use @mode to distinguish whether a file or a directory is being
+ * created (S_IFDIR(mode) and S_IFREG(mode), respectively).
+ *
+ * If @base_ni is not NULL make the allocated mft record an extent record,
+ * allocate it starting at the mft record after the base mft record and attach
+ * the allocated and opened ntfs inode to the base inode @base_ni.  In this
+ * case @mode must be 0 as it is meaningless for extent inodes.
+ *
+ * You need to check the return value with IS_ERR().  If false, the function
+ * was successful and the return value is the now opened ntfs inode of the
+ * allocated mft record.  *@mrec is then set to the allocated, mapped, pinned,
+ * and locked mft record.  If IS_ERR() is true, the function failed and the
+ * error code is obtained from PTR_ERR(return value).  *@mrec is undefined in
+ * this case.
+ *
+ * Allocation strategy:
+ *
+ * To find a free mft record, we scan the mft bitmap for a zero bit.  To
+ * optimize this we start scanning at the place specified by @base_ni or if
+ * @base_ni is NULL we start where we last stopped and we perform wrap around
+ * when we reach the end.  Note, we do not try to allocate mft records below
+ * number 24 because numbers 0 to 15 are the defined system files anyway and 16
+ * to 24 are special in that they are used for storing extension mft records
+ * for the $DATA attribute of $MFT.  This is required to avoid the possibility
+ * of creating a runlist with a circular dependency which once written to disk
+ * can never be read in again.  Windows will only use records 16 to 24 for
+ * normal files if the volume is completely out of space.  We never use them
+ * which means that when the volume is really out of space we cannot create any
+ * more files while Windows can still create up to 8 small files.  We can start
+ * doing this at some later time, it does not matter much for now.
+ *
+ * When scanning the mft bitmap, we only search up to the last allocated mft
+ * record.  If there are no free records left in the range 24 to number of
+ * allocated mft records, then we extend the $MFT/$DATA attribute in order to
+ * create free mft records.  We extend the allocated size of $MFT/$DATA by 16
+ * records at a time or one cluster, if cluster size is above 16kiB.  If there
+ * is not sufficient space to do this, we try to extend by a single mft record
+ * or one cluster, if cluster size is above the mft record size.
+ *
+ * No matter how many mft records we allocate, we initialize only the first
+ * allocated mft record, incrementing mft data size and initialized size
+ * accordingly, open an ntfs_inode for it and return it to the caller, unless
+ * there are less than 24 mft records, in which case we allocate and initialize
+ * mft records until we reach record 24 which we consider as the first free mft
+ * record for use by normal files.
+ *
+ * If during any stage we overflow the initialized data in the mft bitmap, we
+ * extend the initialized size (and data size) by 8 bytes, allocating another
+ * cluster if required.  The bitmap data size has to be at least equal to the
+ * number of mft records in the mft, but it can be bigger, in which case the
+ * superflous bits are padded with zeroes.
+ *
+ * Thus, when we return successfully (IS_ERR() is false), we will have:
+ *	- initialized / extended the mft bitmap if necessary,
+ *	- initialized / extended the mft data if necessary,
+ *	- set the bit corresponding to the mft record being allocated in the
+ *	  mft bitmap,
+ *	- opened an ntfs_inode for the allocated mft record, and we will have
+ *	- returned the ntfs_inode as well as the allocated mapped, pinned, and
+ *	  locked mft record.
+ *
+ * On error, the volume will be left in a consistent state and no record will
+ * be allocated.  If rolling back a partial operation fails, we may leave some
+ * inconsistent metadata in which case we set NVolErrors() so the volume is
+ * left dirty when unmounted.
+ *
+ * Note, this function cannot make use of most of the normal functions, like
+ * for example for attribute resizing, etc, because when the run list overflows
+ * the base mft record and an attribute list is used, it is very important that
+ * the extension mft records used to store the $DATA attribute of $MFT can be
+ * reached without having to read the information contained inside them, as
+ * this would make it impossible to find them in the first place after the
+ * volume is unmounted.  $MFT/$BITMAP probably does not need to follow this
+ * rule because the bitmap is not essential for finding the mft records, but on
+ * the other hand, handling the bitmap in this special way would make life
+ * easier because otherwise there might be circular invocations of functions
+ * when reading the bitmap.

+ * ntfs_lookup - find the inode represented by a dentry in a directory inode
+ * @dir_ino:	directory inode in which to look for the inode
+ * @dent:	dentry representing the inode to look for
+ * @nd:		lookup nameidata
+ *
+ * In short, ntfs_lookup() looks for the inode represented by the dentry @dent
+ * in the directory inode @dir_ino and if found attaches the inode to the
+ * dentry @dent.
+ *
+ * In more detail, the dentry @dent specifies which inode to look for by
+ * supplying the name of the inode in @dent->d_name.name. ntfs_lookup()
+ * converts the name to Unicode and walks the contents of the directory inode
+ * @dir_ino looking for the converted Unicode name. If the name is found in the
+ * directory, the corresponding inode is loaded by calling ntfs_iget() on its
+ * inode number and the inode is associated with the dentry @dent via a call to
+ * d_splice_alias().
+ *
+ * If the name is not found in the directory, a NULL inode is inserted into the
+ * dentry @dent via a call to d_add(). The dentry is then termed a negative
+ * dentry.
+ *
+ * Only if an actual error occurs, do we return an error via ERR_PTR().
+ *
+ * In order to handle the case insensitivity issues of NTFS with regards to the
+ * dcache and the dcache requiring only one dentry per directory, we deal with
+ * dentry aliases that only differ in case in ->ntfs_lookup() while maintaining
+ * a case sensitive dcache. This means that we get the full benefit of dcache
+ * speed when the file/directory is looked up with the same case as returned by
+ * ->ntfs_readdir() but that a lookup for any other case (or for the short file
+ * name) will not find anything in dcache and will enter ->ntfs_lookup()
+ * instead, where we search the directory for a fully matching file name
+ * (including case) and if that is not found, we search for a file name that
+ * matches with different case and if that has non-POSIX semantics we return
+ * that. We actually do only one search (case sensitive) and keep tabs on
+ * whether we have found a case insensitive match in the process.
+ *
+ * To simplify matters for us, we do not treat the short vs long filenames as
+ * two hard links but instead if the lookup matches a short filename, we
+ * return the dentry for the corresponding long filename instead.
+ *
+ * There are three cases we need to distinguish here:
+ *
+ * 1) @dent perfectly matches (i.e. including case) a directory entry with a
+ *    file name in the WIN32 or POSIX namespaces. In this case
+ *    ntfs_lookup_inode_by_name() will return with name set to NULL and we
+ *    just d_splice_alias() @dent.
+ * 2) @dent matches (not including case) a directory entry with a file name in
+ *    the WIN32 namespace. In this case ntfs_lookup_inode_by_name() will return
+ *    with name set to point to a kmalloc()ed ntfs_name structure containing
+ *    the properly cased little endian Unicode name. We convert the name to the
+ *    current NLS code page, search if a dentry with this name already exists
+ *    and if so return that instead of @dent.  At this point things are
+ *    complicated by the possibility of 'disconnected' dentries due to NFS
+ *    which we deal with appropriately (see the code comments).  The VFS will
+ *    then destroy the old @dent and use the one we returned.  If a dentry is
+ *    not found, we allocate a new one, d_splice_alias() it, and return it as
+ *    above.
+ * 3) @dent matches either perfectly or not (i.e. we don't care about case) a
+ *    directory entry with a file name in the DOS namespace. In this case
+ *    ntfs_lookup_inode_by_name() will return with name set to point to a
+ *    kmalloc()ed ntfs_name structure containing the mft reference (cpu endian)
+ *    of the inode. We use the mft reference to read the inode and to find the
+ *    file name in the WIN32 namespace corresponding to the matched short file
+ *    name. We then convert the name to the current NLS code page, and proceed
+ *    searching for a dentry with this name, etc, as in case 2), above.
+ *
+ * Locking: Caller must hold i_mutex on the directory.

+ * Transaction log ($UsnJrnl) organization:
+ *
+ * The transaction log records whenever a file is modified in any way.  So for
+ * example it will record that file "blah" was written to at a particular time
+ * but not what was written.  If will record that a file was deleted or
+ * created, that a file was truncated, etc.  See below for all the reason
+ * codes used.
+ *
+ * The transaction log is in the $Extend directory which is in the root
+ * directory of each volume.  If it is not present it means transaction
+ * logging is disabled.  If it is present it means transaction logging is
+ * either enabled or in the process of being disabled in which case we can
+ * ignore it as it will go away as soon as Windows gets its hands on it.
+ *
+ * To determine whether the transaction logging is enabled or in the process
+ * of being disabled, need to check the volume flags in the
+ * $VOLUME_INFORMATION attribute in the $Volume system file (which is present
+ * in the root directory and has a fixed mft record number, see layout.h).
+ * If the flag VOLUME_DELETE_USN_UNDERWAY is set it means the transaction log
+ * is in the process of being disabled and if this flag is clear it means the
+ * transaction log is enabled.
+ *
+ * The transaction log consists of two parts; the $DATA/$Max attribute as well
+ * as the $DATA/$J attribute.  $Max is a header describing the transaction
+ * log whilst $J is the transaction log data itself as a sequence of variable
+ * sized USN_RECORDs (see below for all the structures).
+ *
+ * We do not care about transaction logging at this point in time but we still
+ * need to let windows know that the transaction log is out of date.  To do
+ * this we need to stamp the transaction log.  This involves setting the
+ * lowest_valid_usn field in the $DATA/$Max attribute to the usn to be used
+ * for the next added USN_RECORD to the $DATA/$J attribute as well as
+ * generating a new journal_id in $DATA/$Max.
+ *
+ * The journal_id is as of the current version (2.0) of the transaction log
+ * simply the 64-bit timestamp of when the journal was either created or last
+ * stamped.
+ *
+ * To determine the next usn there are two ways.  The first is to parse
+ * $DATA/$J and to find the last USN_RECORD in it and to add its record_length
+ * to its usn (which is the byte offset in the $DATA/$J attribute).  The
+ * second is simply to take the data size of the attribute.  Since the usns
+ * are simply byte offsets into $DATA/$J, this is exactly the next usn.  For
+ * obvious reasons we use the second method as it is much simpler and faster.
+ *
+ * As an aside, note that to actually disable the transaction log, one would
+ * need to set the VOLUME_DELETE_USN_UNDERWAY flag (see above), then go
+ * through all the mft records on the volume and set the usn field in their
+ * $STANDARD_INFORMATION attribute to zero.  Once that is done, one would need
+ * to delete the transaction log file, i.e. \$Extent\$UsnJrnl, and finally,
+ * one would need to clear the VOLUME_DELETE_USN_UNDERWAY flag.
+ *
+ * Note that if a volume is unmounted whilst the transaction log is being
+ * disabled, the process will continue the next time the volume is mounted.
+ * This is why we can safely mount read-write when we see a transaction log
+ * in the process of being deleted.
