a3d01454bc NFS: Remove BKL requirement from attribute updates
The main problem is dealing with inode->i_size: we need to set the
inode->i_lock on all attribute updates, and so vmtruncate won't cut it.
Make an NFS-private version of vmtruncate that has the necessary locking
semantics.

The result should be that the following inode attribute updates are
protected by inode->i_lock
	nfsi->cache_validity
	nfsi->read_cache_jiffies
	nfsi->attrtimeo
	nfsi->attrtimeo_timestamp
	nfsi->change_attr
	nfsi->last_updated
	nfsi->cache_change_attribute
	nfsi->access_cache
	nfsi->access_cache_entry_lru
	nfsi->access_cache_inode_lru
	nfsi->acl_access
	nfsi->acl_default
	nfsi->nfs_page_tree
	nfsi->ncommit
	nfsi->npages
	nfsi->open_files
	nfsi->silly_list
	nfsi->acl
	nfsi->open_states
	inode->i_size
	inode->i_atime
	inode->i_mtime
	inode->i_ctime
	inode->i_nlink
	inode->i_uid
	inode->i_gid

The following is protected by dir->i_mutex
	nfsi->cookieverf

d67d1c7bf9 nfs: set correct fl_len in nlmclnt_test()
fcntl(F_GETLK) on an nfs client incorrectly returns
the values for the conflicting lock. fl_len value is
always 1.
If the conflicting lock is (0, 4095) the F_GETLK
request for (1024, 10) returns (0, 1), which doesn't
even cover the requested range, and is quite confusing.
The fix is trivial, set fl_end from the fl_end value
recieved from the nfs server.

560de0e659 lockd: get host reference in nlmsvc_create_block() instead of callers
It may not be obvious (till you look at the definition of
nlm_alloc_call()) that a function like nlmsvc_create_block() should
consume a reference on success or failure, so I find it clearer if it
takes the reference it needs itself.

And both callers already do this immediately before the call anyway.

6cde4de807 lockd: eliminate duplicate nlmsvc_lookup_host call from nlmsvc_lock
nlmsvc_lock calls nlmsvc_lookup_host to find a nlm_host struct. The
callers of this function, however, call nlmsvc_retrieve_args or
nlm4svc_retrieve_args, which also return a nlm_host struct.

Change nlmsvc_lock to take a host arg instead of calling
nlmsvc_lookup_host itself and change the callers to pass a pointer to
the nlm_host they've already found.

Since nlmsvc_testlock() now just uses the caller's reference, we no
longer need to get or release it.

11c3b79218 configfs: Allow ->make_item() and ->make_group() to return detailed errors.
The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group.  A return of NULL signifies an error.  Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.

Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail.  This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return an int.

Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs.

6d8344baee configfs: Fix failing mkdir() making racing rmdir() fail
When fixing the rename() vs rmdir() deadlock, we stopped locking default groups'
inodes in configfs_detach_prep(), letting racing mkdir() in default groups
proceed concurrently. This enables races like below happen, which leads to a
failing mkdir() making rmdir() fail, despite the group to remove having no
user-created directory under it in the end.

	process A: 			process B:
	/* PWD=A/B */
	mkdir("C")
	  make_item("C")
	  attach_group("C")
					rmdir("A")
					  detach_prep("A")
					    detach_prep("B")
					      error because of "C"
					  return -ENOTEMPTY
	    attach_group("C/D")
	      error (eg -ENOMEM)
	  return -ENOMEM

This patch prevents such scenarii by making rmdir() wait as long as
detach_prep() fails because a racing mkdir() is in the middle of attach_group().
To achieve this, mkdir() sets a flag CONFIGFS_USET_IN_MKDIR in parent's
configfs_dirent before calling attach_group(), and clears the flag once
attach_group() is done. detach_prep() fails with -EAGAIN whenever the flag is
hit and returns the guilty inode's mutex so that rmdir() can wait on it.

b3e76af874 configfs: Fix deadlock with racing rmdir() and rename()
This patch fixes the deadlock between racing sys_rename() and configfs_rmdir().

The idea is to avoid locking i_mutexes of default groups in
configfs_detach_prep(), and rely instead on the new configfs_dirent_lock to
protect against configfs_dirent's linkage mutations. To ensure that an mkdir()
racing with rmdir() will not create new items in a to-be-removed default group,
we make configfs_new_dirent() check for the CONFIGFS_USET_DROPPING flag right
before linking the new dirent, and return error if the flag is set. This makes
racing mkdir()/symlink()/dir_open() fail in places where errors could already
happen, resp. in (attach_item()|attach_group())/create_link()/new_dirent().

configfs_depend() remains safe since it locks all the path from configfs root,
and is thus mutually exclusive with rmdir().

An advantage of this is that now detach_groups() unconditionnaly takes the
default groups i_mutex, which makes it more consistent with populate_groups().

5301a77da2 configfs: Protect configfs_dirent s_links list mutations
Symlinks to a config_item are listed under its configfs_dirent s_links, but the
list mutations are not protected by any common lock.

This patch uses the configfs_dirent_lock spinlock to add the necessary
protection.

Note: we should also protect the list_empty() test in configfs_detach_prep() but
1/ the lock should not be released immediately because nothing would prevent the
list from being filled after a successful list_empty() test, making the problem
tricky,
2/ this will be solved by the rmdir() vs rename() deadlock bugfix.

6f61076406 configfs: Introduce configfs_dirent_lock
This patch introduces configfs_dirent_lock spinlock to protect configfs_dirent
traversals against linkage mutations (add/del/move). This will allow
configfs_detach_prep() to avoid locking i_mutexes.

Locking rules for configfs_dirent linkage mutations are the same plus the
requirement of taking configfs_dirent_lock. For configfs_dirent walking, one can
either take appropriate i_mutex as before, or take configfs_dirent_lock.

The spinlock could actually be a mutex, but the critical sections are either
O(1) or should not be too long (default groups walking in last patch).

ChangeLog:
  - Clarify the comment on configfs_dirent_lock usage
  - Move sd->s_element init before linking the new dirent
  - In lseek(), do not release configfs_dirent_lock before the dirent is
    relinked.

006ebb40d3 Security: split proc ptrace checking into read vs. attach
Enable security modules to distinguish reading of process state via
proc from full ptrace access by renaming ptrace_may_attach to
ptrace_may_access and adding a mode argument indicating whether only
read access or full attach access is requested.  This allows security
modules to permit access to reading process state without granting
full ptrace access.  The base DAC/capability checking remains unchanged.

Read access to /proc/pid/mem continues to apply a full ptrace attach
check since check_mem_permission() already requires the current task
to already be ptracing the target.  The other ptrace checks within
proc for elements like environ, maps, and fds are changed to pass the
read mode instead of attach.

In the SELinux case, we model such reading of process state as a
reading of a proc file labeled with the target process' label.  This
enables SELinux policy to permit such reading of process state without
permitting control or manipulation of the target process, as there are
a number of cases where programs probe for such information via proc
but do not need to be able to control the target (e.g. procps,
lsof, PolicyKit, ConsoleKit).  At present we have to choose between
allowing full ptrace in policy (more permissive than required/desired)
or breaking functionality (or in some cases just silencing the denials
via dontaudit rules but this can hide genuine attacks).

This version of the patch incorporates comments from Casey Schaufler
(change/replace existing ptrace_may_attach interface, pass access
mode), and Chris Wright (provide greater consistency in the checking).

Note that like their predecessors __ptrace_may_attach and
ptrace_may_attach, the __ptrace_may_access and ptrace_may_access
interfaces use different return value conventions from each other (0
or -errno vs. 1 or 0).  I retained this difference to avoid any
changes to the caller logic but made the difference clearer by
changing the latter interface to return a bool rather than an int and
by adding a comment about it to ptrace.h for any future callers.

536abdb080 cifs: fix wksidarr declaration to be big-endian friendly
The current definition of wksidarr works fine on little endian arches
(since cpu_to_le32 is a no-op there), but on big-endian arches, it fails
to compile with this error:

error: braced-group within expression allowed only inside a function

The problem is that this static declaration has cpu_to_le32 embedded
within it, and that expands into a function macro.  We need to use
__constant_cpu_to_le32() instead.

e911d0cc87 cifs: fix inode leak in cifs_get_inode_info_unix
Try this:

    mount a share with unix extensions
    create a file on it
    umount the share

You'll get the following message in the ring buffer:

VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of cifs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds.  Have a
nice day...

...the problem is that cifs_get_inode_info_unix is creating and hashing
a new inode even when it's going to return error anyway. The first
lookup when creating a file returns an error so we end up leaking this
inode before we do the actual create. This appears to be a regression
caused by commit 0e4bbde94f.

The following patch seems to fix it for me, and fixes a minor

With this patch, if the extents feature is not already set on disk,

c07651b556 ext4: Don't allow nonextenst mount option for large filesystem
The block mapped inode format can address only blocks within 2**32. This
causes a number of issues, the biggest of which is that the block
allocator needs to be taught that certain inodes can not utilize block
numbers > 2**32.  So until this is fixed, it is simplest to fail
mounting of file systems with more than 2**32 blocks if the -o noextents
option is given.

3e3398a08d ext4: delayed allocation i_blocks fix for stat
Right now i_blocks is not getting updated until the blocks are actually
allocaed on disk.  This means with delayed allocation, right after files
are copied, "ls -sF" shoes the file as taking 0 blocks on disk.  "du"
also shows the files taking zero space, which is highly confusing to the
user.

Since delayed allocation already keeps track of per-inode total
number of blocks that are subject to delayed allocation, this patch fix
this by using that to adjust the value returned by stat(2). When real
block allocation is done, the i_blocks will get updated. Since the
reserved blocks for delayed allocation will be decreased, this will be
keep value returned by stat(2) consistent.

632eaeab1f ext4: fix delalloc i_disksize early update issue
Ext4_da_write_end() used walk_page_buffers() with a callback function of
ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay() to check if it extended the file size
without allocating any blocks (since in this case i_disksize needs to be
updated).  However, this is didn't work proprely because the buffer head
has not been marked dirty yet --- this is done later in
block_commit_write() --- which caused ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay() to
always return false.

In addition, walk_page_buffers() checks all of the buffer heads covering
the page, and the only buffer_head that should be checked is the one
covering the end of the write.  Otherwise, given a 1k blocksize
filesystem and a 4k page size, the buffer head covering the first 1k
stripe of the file could be unmapped (because it was a sparse file), and
the second or third buffer_head covering that page could be mapped, and
using walk_page_buffers() would fail in this case since it would stop at
the first unmapped buffer_head and return true.

The core problem is that walk_page_buffers() was intended to do work in
a callback function, and a non-zero return value indicated a failure,
which termined the walk of the buffer heads covering the page.  It was
not intended to be used with a boolean function, such as
ext4_bh_unmapped_or_delay().

Add addtional fix from Aneesh to protect i_disksize update rave with truncate.

f0e6c98593 ext4: Handle page without buffers in ext4_*_writepage()
It can happen that buffers are removed from the page before it gets
marked dirty and then is passed to writepage().  In writepage() we just
initialize the buffers and check whether they are mapped and non
delay. If they are mapped and non delay we write the page. Otherwise we
mark them dirty.  With this change we don't do block allocation at all
in ext4_*_write_page.

writepage() can get called under many condition and with a locking order
of journal_start -> lock_page, we should not try to allocate blocks in
writepage() which get called after taking page lock.  writepage() can
get called via shrink_page_list even with a journal handle which was
created for doing inode update.  For example when doing
ext4_da_write_begin we create a journal handle with credit 1 expecting a
i_disksize update for the inode. But ext4_da_write_begin can cause
shrink_page_list via _grab_page_cache. So having a valid handle via
ext4_journal_current_handle is not a guarantee that we can use the
handle for block allocation in writepage, since we shouldn't be using
credits that had been reserved for other updates.  That it could result
in we running out of credits when we update inodes.

cd1aac3292 ext4: Add ordered mode support for delalloc
This provides a new ordered mode implementation which gets rid of using
buffer heads to enforce the ordering between metadata change with the
related data chage.  Instead, in the new ordering mode, it keeps track
of all of the inodes touched by each transaction on a list, and when
that transaction is committed, it flushes all of the dirty pages for
those inodes.  In addition, the new ordered mode reverses the lock
ordering of the page lock and transaction lock, which provides easier
support for delayed allocation.

transaction commit. This can cause a deadlock with the locking order
page_lock -> jbd2_journal_start, since the jbd2_journal_start can wait
for the journal_commit to happen and the journal_commit now needs to
take the page lock. To avoid this dead lock reverse the locking order.

Set sbi->s_journal to NULL after we call journal_destroy(). This

ext4_clear_inode() can still be called for some inodes (e.g. root

7061eba75c ext4: Use inode preallocation with -o noextents
When mballoc is enabled, block allocation for old block-based
files are allocated using mballoc allocator instead of old
block-based allocator. The old ext3 block reservation is turned
off when mballoc is turned on.

However, the in-core preallocation is not enabled for block-based/
non-extent based file block allocation. This result in performance
regression, as now we don't have "reservation" ore in-core preallocation
to prevent interleaved fragmentation in multiple writes workload.

This patch fix this by enable per inode in-core preallocation
for non extent files when mballoc is used.

530576bbf3 jbd2: fix race between jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() and jbd2 commit transaction
journal_try_to_free_buffers() could race with jbd commit transaction
when the later is holding the buffer reference while waiting for the
data buffer to flush to disk. If the caller of
journal_try_to_free_buffers() request tries hard to release the buffers,
it will treat the failure as error and return back to the caller. We
have seen the directo IO failed due to this race.  Some of the caller of
releasepage() also expecting the buffer to be dropped when passed with
GFP_KERNEL mask to the releasepage()->journal_try_to_free_buffers().

With this patch, if the caller is passing the GFP_KERNEL to indicating
this call could wait, in case of try_to_free_buffers() failed, let's
waiting for journal_commit_transaction() to finish commit the current
committing transaction , then try to free those buffers again with

772cb7c83b ext4: New inode allocation for FLEX_BG meta-data groups.
This patch mostly controls the way inode are allocated in order to
make ialloc aware of flex_bg block group grouping.  It achieves this
by bypassing the Orlov allocator when block group meta-data are packed
toghether through mke2fs.  Since the impact on the block allocator is
minimal, this patch should have little or no effect on other block
allocation algorithms. By controlling the inode allocation, it can
basically control where the initial search for new block begins and
thus indirectly manipulate the block allocator.

This allocator favors data and meta-data locality so the disk will
gradually be filled from block group zero upward.  This helps improve
performance by reducing seek time.  Since the group of inode tables
within one flex_bg are treated as one giant inode table, uninitialized
block groups would not need to partially initialize as many inode
table as with Orlov which would help fsck time as the filesystem usage
goes up.

49641f1acf Fix reference counting race on log buffers
When we release the iclog, we do an atomic_dec_and_lock to determine if
we are the last reference and need to trigger update of log headers and
writeout.  However, in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we also need to
check if we have the last reference count there.  If we do, we release
the log buffer, otherwise we decrement the reference count.

But the compare and decrement in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() is not
atomic, so both places can see a reference count of 2 and neither will
release the iclog.  That leads to a filesystem hang.

Close the race by replacing the atomic_read() and atomic_dec() pair with
atomic_add_unless() to ensure that they are executed atomically.

96a8e13ed4 exec: fix stack excutability without PT_GNU_STACK
Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32)
exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an
executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because
stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established:
so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines.

Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack
vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup.  Checking through
our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct:
so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

9cabcdbd46 [GFS2] Replace rgrp "recent list" with mru list
This patch removes the "recent list" which is used during allocation
and replaces it with the (already existing) mru list used during
deletion. The "recent list" was not a true mru list leading to a number
of inefficiencies including a "next" function which made scanning the
list an order N^2 operation wrt to the number of list elements.

This should increase allocation performance with large numbers of rgrps.
Its also a useful preparation and cleanup before some further changes
which are planned in this area.

f45663ce5f NFS: Allow either strict or sloppy mount option parsing
The kernel's NFS client mount option parser currently doesn't allow
unrecognized or incorrect mount options.  This prevents misspellings or
incorrectly specified mount options from possibly causing silent data
corruption.

However, NFS mount options are not standardized, so different operating
systems can use differently spelled mount options to support similar
features, or can support mount options which no other operating system
supports.

"Sloppy" mount option parsing, which allows the parser to ignore any
option it doesn't recognize, is needed to support automounters that often
use maps that are shared between heterogenous operating systems.

The legacy mount command ignores the validity of the values of mount
options entirely, except for the "sec=" and "proto=" options.  If an
incorrect value is specified, the out-of-range value is passed to the
kernel; if a value is specified that contains non-numeric characters,
it appears as though the legacy mount command sets that option to zero
(probably incorrect behavior in general).

In any case, this sets a precedent which we will partially follow for
the kernel mount option parser:

	+ if "sloppy" is not set, the parser will be strict about both
	  unrecognized options (same as legacy) and invalid option
	  values (stricter than legacy)

	+ if "sloppy" is set, the parser will ignore unrecognized
	  options and invalid option values (same as legacy)

An "invalid" option value in this case means that either the type
(integer, short, or string) or sign (for integer values) of the specified
value is incorrect.

This patch does two things: it changes the NFS client's mount option
parsing loop so that it parses the whole string instead of failing at
the first unrecognized option or invalid option value.  An unrecognized
option or an invalid option value cause the option to be skipped.

Then, the patch adds a "sloppy" mount option that allows the parsing
to succeed anyway if there were any problems during parsing.  When
parsing a set of options is complete, if there are errors and "sloppy"
was specified, return success anyway.  Otherwise, only return success
if there are no errors.

40fef8a649 SUNRPC: Use only rpcbind v2 for AF_INET requests
Some server vendors support the higher versions of rpcbind only for
AF_INET6.  The kernel doesn't need to use v3 or v4 for AF_INET anyway,
so change the kernel's rpcbind client to query AF_INET servers over
rpcbind v2 only.

This has a few interesting benefits:

1. If the rpcbind request is going over TCP, and the server doesn't
   support rpcbind versions 3 or 4, the client reduces by two the number
   of ephemeral ports left in TIME_WAIT for each rpcbind request.  This
   will help during NFS mount storms.

2. The rpcbind interaction with servers that don't support rpcbind
   versions 3 or 4 will use less network traffic.  Also helpful
   during mount storms.

3. We can eliminate the kernel build option that controls whether the
   kernel's rpcbind client uses rpcbind version 3 and 4 for AF_INET
   servers.  Less complicated kernel configuration...

Move the clean functions into nfs_callback_down. Also change the

nfs4_delay that's passed a pointer to 'timeout' is looking at its value

	if (*timeout <= 0)
		*timeout = NFS4_POLL_RETRY_MIN;

d8e7748ab8 NFS: handle interface identifiers in incoming IPv6 addresses
Add support in the kernel NFS client's address parser for interface
identifiers.

IPv6 link-local addresses require an additional "interface identifier",
which is a network device name or an integer that indexes the array of
local network interfaces.  They are suffixed to the address with a '%'.
For example:

	fe80::215:c5ff:fe3b:e1b2%2

indicates an interface index of 2.  Or

	fe80::215:c5ff:fe3b:e1b2%eth0

indicates that requests should be routed through the eth0 device.
Without the interface ID, link-local addresses are not usable for NFS.

Both the kernel NFS client mount option parser and the mount.nfs command
can take either form.  The mount.nfs command always passes the address
through getnameinfo(3), which usually re-writes interface indices as
device names.

d1aa082573 NFS: Support raw IPv6 address hostnames during NFS mount operation
Traditionally the mount command has looked for a ":" to separate the
server's hostname from the export path in the mounted on device name,
like this:

	mount server:/export /mounted/on/dir

The server's hostname is "server" and the export path is "/export".

You can also substitute a specific IPv4 network address for the server
hostname, like this:

	mount 192.168.0.55:/export /mounted/on/dir

Raw IPv6 addresses present a problem, however, because they look
something like this:

	fe80::200:5aff:fe00:30b

Note the use of colons.

To get around the presence of colons, copy the Solaris convention used for
mounting IPv6 servers by address: wrap a raw IPv6 address with square
brackets.

NFSv2 file locking currently fails the Connectathon tests, because the
calls to the VFS locking code do not return an EINVAL error if the
struct file_lock overflows the 32-bit boundaries.

The problem is due to the fact that we occasionally call helpers from
fs/locks.c in order to avoid RPC calls to the server when we know that a
local process holds the lock. These helpers are, of course, always
64-bit enabled, so EINVAL is not returned in cases when it would if
the call had gone to the NLM code.

For consistency, we therefore add support for a bounds-checking helper.

eb35c218d8 reiserfs: discard prealloc in reiserfs_delete_inode
With the removal of struct file from the xattr code,
reiserfs_file_release() isn't used anymore, so the prealloc isn't
discarded.  This causes hangs later down the line.

This patch adds it to reiserfs_delete_inode.  In most cases it will be a
no-op due to it already having been called, but will avoid hangs with
xattrs.

2aac05a919 NFS: Fix readdir cache invalidation
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() takes page offset arguments, not byte
ranges.

Another thought is that individual pages might perhaps get evicted by VM
pressure, in which case we might perhaps want to re-read not only the
evicted page, but all subsequent pages too (in case the server returns
more/less data per page so that the alignment of the next entry
changes). We should therefore remove the condition that we only do this on
page->index==0.

ce0c0e50f9 x86, generic: CPA add statistics about state of direct mapping v4
Add information about the mapping state of the direct mapping to
/proc/meminfo. I chose /proc/meminfo because that is where all the other
memory statistics are too and it is a generally useful metric even
outside debugging situations. A lot of split kernel pages means the
kernel will run slower.

This way we can see how many large pages are really used for it and how
many are split.

Useful for general insight into the kernel.

v2: Add hotplug locking to 64bit to plug a very obscure theoretical race.
    32bit doesn't need it because it doesn't support hotadd for lowmem.
    Fix some typos
v3: Rename dpages_cnt

Bruce Fields suggested this (Thanks!):
maybe we need to be doing a mnt_want_write on open_upgrade and mnt_put_write on downgrade?

This patch adds a call to mnt_want_write and file_take_write (which is
doing the actual work).

The counter-calls mnt_drop_write a file_release_write are now being properly
called by drop_file_write_access in the exact path printed by the warning
above.

209806aba9 [GFS2] Allow local DF locks when holding a cached EX glock
We already allow local SH locks while we hold a cached EX glock, so here
we allow DF locks as well. This works only because we rely on the VFS's
invalidation for locally cached data, and because if we hold an EX lock,
then we know that no other node can be caching data relating to this
file.

It dramatically speeds up initial writes to O_DIRECT files since we fall
back to buffered I/O for this and would otherwise bounce between DF and
EX modes on each and every write call. The lessons to be learned from
that are to ensure that (for the time being anyway) O_DIRECT files are
preallocated and that they are written to using reasonably large I/O
sizes. Even so this change fixes that corner case nicely

- unstatic struct pagemap_walk, so two threads won't fsckup each other

32502b8413 splice: fix generic_file_splice_read() race with page invalidation
If a page was invalidated during splicing from file to a pipe, then
generic_file_splice_read() could return a short or zero count.

This manifested itself in rare I/O errors seen on nfs exported fuse
filesystems.  This is because nfsd uses splice_direct_to_actor() to read
files, and fuse uses invalidate_inode_pages2() to invalidate stale data on
open.

Fix by redoing the page find/create if it was found to be truncated
(invalidated).

cc371e66e3 Add bvec_merge_data to handle stacked devices and ->merge_bvec()
When devices are stacked, one device's merge_bvec_fn may need to perform
the mapping and then call one or more functions for its underlying devices.

The following bio fields are used:
  bio->bi_sector
  bio->bi_bdev
  bio->bi_size
  bio->bi_rw  using bio_data_dir()

This patch creates a new struct bvec_merge_data holding a copy of those
fields to avoid having to change them directly in the struct bio when
going down the stack only to have to change them back again on the way
back up.  (And then when the bio gets mapped for real, the whole
exercise gets repeated, but that's a problem for another day...)

f58ba88910 [GFS2] don't call permission()
GFS2 calls permission() to verify permissions after locks on the files
have been taken.

For this it's sufficient to call gfs2_permission() instead.  This
results in the following changes:

  - IS_RDONLY() check is not performed
  - IS_IMMUTABLE() check is not performed
  - devcgroup_inode_permission() is not called
  - security_inode_permission() is not called

IS_RDONLY() should be unnecessary anyway, as the per-mount read-only
flag should provide protection against read-only remounts during
operations.  do_gfs2_set_flags() has been fixed to perform
mnt_want_write()/mnt_drop_write() to protect against remounting
read-only.

IS_IMMUTABLE has been added to gfs2_permission()

Repeating the security checks seems to be pointless, as they don't
normally change, and if they do, it's independent of the filesystem
state.

9465efc9e9 Remove BKL from remote_llseek v2
- Replace remote_llseek with generic_file_llseek_unlocked (to force compilation
failures in all users)
- Change all users to either use generic_file_llseek_unlocked directly or
take the BKL around. I changed the file systems who don't use the BKL
for anything (CIFS, GFS) to call it directly. NCPFS and SMBFS and NFS
take the BKL, but explicitely in their own source now.

I moved them all over in a single patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Open problem: 32bit kernels can corrupt fpos because its modification
is not atomic, but they can do that anyways because there's other paths who
modify it without BKL.

Do we need a special lock for the pos/f_version = 0 checks?

Trond says the NFS BKL is likely not needed, but keep it for now
until his full audit.

v2: Use generic_file_llseek_unlocked instead of remote_llseek_unlocked
    and factor duplicated code (suggested by hch)

18ce3751cc Properly notify block layer of sync writes
fsync_buffers_list() and sync_dirty_buffer() both issue async writes and
then immediately wait on them. Conceptually, that makes them sync writes
and we should treat them as such so that the IO schedulers can handle
them appropriately.

This patch fixes a write starvation issue that Lin Ming reported, where
xx is stuck for more than 2 minutes because of a large number of
synchronous IO in the system:

100766f834 nfsd: treat all shutdown signals as equivalent
knfsd currently uses 2 signal masks when processing requests. A "loose"
mask (SHUTDOWN_SIGS) that it uses when receiving network requests, and
then a more "strict" mask (ALLOWED_SIGS, which is just SIGKILL) that it
allows when doing the actual operation on the local storage.

This is apparently unnecessarily complicated. The underlying filesystem
should be able to sanely handle a signal in the middle of an operation.
This patch removes the signal mask handling from knfsd altogether. When
knfsd is started as a kthread, all signals are ignored. It then allows
all of the signals in SHUTDOWN_SIGS. There's no need to set the mask
as well.

496d6c32d4 nfsd: fix spurious EACCESS in reconnect_path()
Thanks to Frank Van Maarseveen for the original problem report: "A
privileged process on an NFS client which drops privileges after using
them to change the current working directory, will experience incorrect
EACCES after an NFS server reboot. This problem can also occur after
memory pressure on the server, particularly when the client side is
quiet for some time."

This occurs because the filehandle points to a directory whose parents
are no longer in the dentry cache, and we're attempting to reconnect the
directory to its parents without adequate permissions to perform lookups
in the parent directories.

We can therefore fix the problem by acquiring the necessary capabilities
before attempting the reconnection.  We do this only in the
no_subtree_check case, since the documented behavior of the
subtree_check export option requires the server to check that the user
has lookup permissions on all parents.

The subtree_check case still has a problem, since reconnect_path()
unnecessarily requires both read and lookup permissions on all parent
directories.  However, a fix in that case would be more delicate, and
use of subtree_check is already discouraged for other reasons.

1bdad60633 [GFS2] Remove remote lock dropping code
There are several reasons why this is undesirable:

 1. It never happens during normal operation anyway
 2. If it does happen it causes performance to be very, very poor
 3. It isn't likely to solve the original problem (memory shortage
    on remote DLM node) it was supposed to solve
 4. It uses a bunch of arbitrary constants which are unlikely to be
    correct for any particular situation and for which the tuning seems
    to be a black art.
 5. In an N node cluster, only 1/N of the dropped locked will actually
    contribute to solving the problem on average.

So all in all we are better off without it. This also makes merging
the lock_dlm module into GFS2 a bit easier.

9171f5a991 [GFS2] kernel panic mounting volume
This patch fixes Red Hat bugzilla bug 450156.

This started with a not-too-improbable mount failure because the
locking protocol was never set back to its proper "lock_dlm" after the
system was rebooted in the middle of a gfs2_fsck.  That left a
(purposely) invalid locking protocol in the superblock, which caused an
error when the file system was mounted the next time.

When there's an error mounting, vfs calls DQUOT_OFF, which calls
vfs_quota_off which calls gfs2_sync_fs.  Next, gfs2_sync_fs calls
gfs2_log_flush passing s_fs_info.  But due to the error, s_fs_info
had been previously set to NULL, and so we have the kernel oops.

My solution in this patch is to test for the NULL value before passing
it.  I tested this patch and it fixes the problem.

01b7c7ae88 [GFS2] Revise readpage locking
The previous attempt to fix the locking in readpage failed due
to the use of a "try lock" which resulted in occasional high
cpu usage during testing (due to repeated tries) and also it
did not resolve all the ordering problems wrt the transaction
lock (although it did solve all the inode lock ordering problems).

This patch avoids the problem by unlocking the page and getting the
locks in the correct order. This means that we have to retest the
page to ensure that it hasn't changed when we relock the page.

This now passes the tests which were previously failing.

f3c9d38a26 [GFS2] Fix ordering bug in lock_dlm
This looks like a lot of change, but in fact its not. Mostly its
things moving from one file to another. The change is just that
instead of queuing lock completions and callbacks from the DLM
we now pass them directly to GFS2.

This gives us a net loss of two list heads per glock (a fair
saving in memory) plus a reduction in the latency of delivering
the messages to GFS2, plus we now have one thread fewer as well.
There was a bug where callbacks and completions could be delivered
in the wrong order due to this unnecessary queuing which is fixed
by this patch.

6802e3400f [GFS2] Clean up the glock core
This patch implements a number of cleanups to the core of the
GFS2 glock code. As a result a lot of code is removed. It looks
like a really big change, but actually a large part of this patch
is either removing or moving existing code.

There are some new bits too though, such as the new run_queue()
function which is considerably streamlined. Highlights of this
patch include:

 o Fixes a cluster coherency bug during SH -> EX lock conversions
 o Removes the "glmutex" code in favour of a single bit lock
 o Removes the ->go_xmote_bh() for inodes since it was duplicating
   ->go_lock()
 o We now only use the ->lm_lock() function for both locks and
   unlocks (i.e. unlock is a lock with target mode LM_ST_UNLOCKED)
 o The fast path is considerably shortly, giving performance gains
   especially with lock_nolock
 o The glock_workqueue is now used for all the callbacks from the DLM
   which allows us to simplify the lock_dlm module (see following patch)
 o The way is now open to make further changes such as eliminating the two
   threads (gfs2_glockd and gfs2_scand) in favour of a more efficient
   scheme.

This patch has undergone extensive testing with various test suites
so it should be pretty stable by now.

5af4e7a0be [GFS2] fix gfs2 block allocation (cleaned up)
This patch fixes bz 450641.

This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it
renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata
tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either
diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first
indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the
inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for
509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the
first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the
height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located.
It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2
(if it diverges from the first indirect block).

be285c712b [patch 3/3] vfs: make d_path() consistent across mount operations
The path that __d_path() computes can become slightly inconsistent when it
races with mount operations: it grabs the vfsmount_lock when traversing mount
points but immediately drops it again, only to re-grab it when it reaches the
next mount point.  The result is that the filename computed is not always
consisent, and the file may never have had that name. (This is unlikely, but
still possible.)

Fix this by grabbing the vfsmount_lock for the whole duration of
__d_path().

599eb3046a knfsd: nfsd: Handle ERESTARTSYS from syscalls.
OCFS2 can return -ERESTARTSYS from write requests (and possibly
elsewhere) if there is a signal pending.

If nfsd is shutdown (by sending a signal to each thread) while there
is still an IO load from the client, each thread could handle one last
request with a signal pending.  This can result in -ERESTARTSYS
which is not understood by nfserrno() and so is reflected back to
the client as nfserr_io aka -EIO.  This is wrong.

Instead, interpret ERESTARTSYS to mean "try again later" by returning
nfserr_jukebox.  The client will resend and - if the server is
restarted - the write will (hopefully) be successful and everyone will
be happy.

 The symptom that I narrowed down to this was:
    copy a large file via NFS to an OCFS2 filesystem, and restart
    the nfs server during the copy.
    The 'cp' might get an -EIO, and the file will be corrupted -
    presumably holes in the middle where writes appeared to fail.

e096bbc648 knfsd: remove special handling for SIGHUP
The special handling for SIGHUP in knfsd is a holdover from much
earlier versions of Linux where reloading the export table was
more expensive. That facility is not really needed anymore and
to my knowledge, is seldom-used.

3dd98a3bcc knfsd: clean up nfsd filesystem interfaces
Several of the nfsd filesystem interfaces allow changes to parameters
that don't have any effect on a running nfsd service. They are only ever
checked when nfsd is started. This patch fixes it so that changes to
those procfiles return -EBUSY if nfsd is already running to make it
clear that changes on the fly don't work.

The patch should also close some relatively harmless races between
changing the info in those interfaces and starting nfsd, since these
variables are being moved under the protection of the nfsd_mutex.

Finally, the nfsv4recoverydir file always returns -EINVAL if read. This
patch fixes it to return the recoverydir path as expected.

bedbdd8bad knfsd: Replace lock_kernel with a mutex for nfsd thread startup/shutdown locking.
This removes the BKL from the RPC service creation codepath. The BKL
really isn't adequate for this job since some of this info needs
protection across sleeps.

Also, add some comments to try and clarify how the locking should work
and to make it clear that the BKL isn't necessary as long as there is
adequate locking between tasks when touching the svc_serv fields.

13b1867cac nfsd: make nfs4xdr WRITEMEM safe against zero count
WRITEMEM zeroes the last word in the destination buffer
for padding purposes, but this must not be done if
no bytes are to be copied, as it would result
in zeroing of the word right before the array.

The current implementation works since it's always called
with non zero nbytes or it follows an encoding of the
string (or opaque) length which, if equal to zero,
can be overwritten with zero.

Nevertheless, it seems safer to check for this case.

c70f844174 [patch for 2.6.26 4/4] vfs: utimensat(): fix write access check for futimens()
The POSIX.1 draft spec for futimens()/utimensat() says:

        Only a process with the effective user ID equal to the
        user ID of the file, *or with write access to the file*,
        or with appropriate privileges may use futimens() or
        utimensat() with a null pointer as the times argument
        or with both tv_nsec fields set to the special value
        UTIME_NOW.

The important piece here is "with write access to the file", and
this matters for futimens(), which deals with an argument that
is a file descriptor referring to the file whose timestamps are
being updated,  The standard is saying that the "writability"
check is based on the file permissions, not the access mode with
which the file is opened.  (This behavior is consistent with the
semantics of FreeBSD's futimes().)  However, Linux is currently
doing the latter -- futimens(fd, times) is a library
function implemented as

       utimensat(fd, NULL, times, 0)

and within the utimensat() implementation we have the code:

                f = fget(dfd);  // dfd is 'fd'
                ...
                if (f) {
                        if (!(f->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE))
                                goto mnt_drop_write_and_out;

The check should instead be based on the file permissions.

Thanks to Miklos for pointing out how to do this check.
Miklos also pointed out a simplification that could be
made to my first version of this patch, since the checks
for the pathname and file descriptor cases can now be
conflated.

4cca92264e [patch for 2.6.26 3/4] vfs: utimensat(): fix error checking for {UTIME_NOW,UTIME_OMIT} case
The POSIX.1 draft spec for utimensat() says:

    Only a process with the effective user ID equal to the
    user ID of the file or with appropriate privileges may use
    futimens() or utimensat() with a non-null times argument
    that does not have both tv_nsec fields set to UTIME_NOW
    and does not have both tv_nsec fields set to UTIME_OMIT.

If this condition is violated, then the error EPERM should result.
However, the current implementation does not generate EPERM if
one tv_nsec field is UTIME_NOW while the other is UTIME_OMIT.
It should give this error for that case.

This patch:

a) Repairs that problem.
b) Removes the now unneeded nsec_special() helper function.
c) Adds some comments to explain the checks that are being
   performed.

Thanks to Miklos, who provided comments on the previous iteration
of this patch.  As a result, this version is a little simpler and
and its logic is better structured.

Miklos suggested an alternative idea, migrating the
is_owner_or_cap() checks into fs/attr.c:inode_change_ok() via
the use of an ATTR_OWNER_CHECK flag.  Maybe we could do that
later, but for now I've gone with this version, which is
IMO simpler, and can be more easily read as being correct.

94c70b9ba7 [patch for 2.6.26 1/4] vfs: utimensat(): ignore tv_sec if tv_nsec == UTIME_OMIT or UTIME_NOW
The POSIX.1 draft spec for utimensat() says that if a times[n].tv_nsec
field is UTIME_OMIT or UTIME_NOW, then the value in the corresponding
tv_sec field is ignored.  See the last sentence of this para, from
the spec:

    If the tv_nsec field of a timespec structure has
    the special value UTIME_NOW, the file's relevant
    timestamp shall be set to the greatest value
    supported by the file system that is not greater than
    the current time. If the tv_nsec field has the
    special value UTIME_OMIT, the file's relevant
    timestamp shall not be changed. In either case,
    the tv_sec field shall be ignored.

However the current Linux implementation requires the tv_sec value to be
zero (or the EINVAL error results). This requirement should be removed.

12fd0d3088 [patch for 2.6.26 2/4] vfs: utimensat(): be consistent with utime() for immutable and append-only files
This patch fixes utimensat() to make its behavior consistent
with that of utime()/utimes() when dealing with files marked
immutable and append-only.

The current utimensat() implementation also returns EPERM if
'times' is non-NULL and the tv_nsec fields are both UTIME_NOW.
For consistency, the

(times != NULL && times[0].tv_nsec == UTIME_NOW &&
                  times[1].tv_nsec == UTIME_NOW)

case should be treated like the traditional utimes() case where
'times' is NULL.  That is, the call should succeed for a file
marked append-only and should give the error EACCES if the file
is marked as immutable.

The simple way to do this is to set 'times' to NULL
if (times[0].tv_nsec == UTIME_NOW && times[1].tv_nsec == UTIME_NOW).

This is also the natural approach, since POSIX.1 semantics consider the
times == {{x, UTIME_NOW}, {y, UTIME_NOW}}
to be exactly equivalent to the case for
times == NULL.

(Thanks to Miklos for pointing this out.)

Patch 3 in this series relies on the simplification provided
by this patch.

55d8538498 Fix performance regression on lmbench select benchmark
Christian Borntraeger reported that reinstating cond_resched() with
CONFIG_PREEMPT caused a performance regression on lmbench:

	For example select file 500:
	23 microseconds
	32 microseconds

and that's really because we totally unnecessarily do the cond_resched()
in the innermost loop of select(), which is just silly.

This moves it out from the innermost loop (which only ever loops ove the
bits in a single "unsigned long" anyway), which makes the performance
regression go away.

8f5934278d Replace BKL with superblock lock in fat/msdos/vfat
This replaces the use of the BKL in the FAT family of filesystems with the
existing superblock lock instead.

The code already appears to do mostly proper locking with its own private
spinlocks (and mutexes), but while the BKL could possibly have been
dropped entirely, converting it to use the superblock lock (which is just
a regular mutex) is the conservative thing to do.

As a per-filesystem mutex, it not only won't have any of the possible
latency issues related to the BKL, but the lock is obviously private to
the particular filesystem instance and will thus not cause problems for
entirely unrelated users like the BKL can.
