Turn noatime and nodiratime into per-mount instead of per-sb flags.
After all the preparations this is a rather trivial patch. The mount code
needs to treat the two options as per-mount instead of per-superblock, and
touch_atime needs to be changed to check the new MNT_ flags in addition to
the MS_ flags that are kept for filesystems that are always
noatime/nodiratime but not user settable anymore. Besides that core code
only nfs needed an update because it's leaving atime updates to the server
and thus sets the S_NOATIME flag on every inode, but needs to know whether
it's a real noatime mount for an getattr optimization.
While we're at it I've killed the IS_NOATIME/IS_NODIRATIME macros that were
only used by touch_atime.

Now that all these entries in the arch ioctl32.c files are gone [1], we can
build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft. We need a
special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done.
This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures. Also remove some
superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c
Tested on ppc64.
[1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct
for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd
kick in for all netdevice users. We can introduce a proper handler
in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to

The xattr code has rather complex permission checks because the rules are very
different for different attribute namespaces. This patch moves as much as we
can into the generic code. Currently all the major disk based filesystems
duplicate these checks, while many minor filesystems or network filesystems
lack some or all of them.
To do this we need defines for the extended attribute names in common code, I
moved them up from JFS which had the nicest defintions.

I have heard some complaints about people not finding CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP

The following patch ends that dependency. I thought of hiding it under
CONFIG_KEXEC, but CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START could also be used for some reasons
other than kexec/kdump and hence left it visible. I will also update the
documentation accordingly.
o Following patch removes the config dependency of CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START
on CONFIG_EMBEDDED. The reason being CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP option for
kdump needs CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START which makes CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depend
on CONFIG_EMBEDDED. It is not always obvious for kdump users to choose

This moves the 32 bit ioctl compatibility handlers for
Video4Linux into a new file and adds explicit calls to them
to each v4l device driver.
Unfortunately, there does not seem to be any code handling
the v4l2 ioctls, so quite often the code goes through two
separate conversions, first from 32 bit v4l to 64 bit v4l,
and from there to 64 bit v4l2. My patch does not change
that, so there is still much room for improvement.
Also, some drivers have additional ioctl numbers, for
which the conversion should be handled internally to
that driver.

Some long time ago, dentry struct was carefully tuned so that on 32 bits
UP, sizeof(struct dentry) was exactly 128, ie a power of 2, and a multiple
of memory cache lines.
Then RCU was added and dentry struct enlarged by two pointers, with nice
results for SMP, but not so good on UP, because breaking the above tuning
(128 + 8 = 136 bytes)
This patch reverts this unwanted side effect, by using an union (d_u),
where d_rcu and d_child are placed so that these two fields can share their
memory needs.
At the time d_free() is called (and d_rcu is really used), d_child is known
to be empty and not touched by the dentry freeing.
Lockless lookups only access d_name, d_parent, d_lock, d_op, d_flags (so
the previous content of d_child is not needed if said dentry was unhashed
but still accessed by a CPU because of RCU constraints)
As dentry cache easily contains millions of entries, a size reduction is
worth the extra complexity of the ugly C union.

SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, but does not reset ->group_stop_count while killing
other threads. If we have not yet stopped threads in the same thread
group, they all will spin in kernel mode until group_exit_task sends them
SIGKILL, because ->group_stop_count > 0 means:
recalc_sigpending_tsk() never clears TIF_SIGPENDING
get_signal_to_deliver() goes to handle_group_stop()
handle_group_stop() returns when SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT set
syscall_exit/resume_userspace notice TIF_SIGPENDING,
call get_signal_to_deliver() again.
So we are wasting cpu cycles, and if one of these threads is rt_task() this
may be a serious problem.
NOTE: do_coredump() holds ->mmap_sem, so not stopped threads can't escape
coredumping after clearing ->group_stop_count.

We've had two instances recently of overflows when doing
64_bit_value = (32_bit_value << PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT)
I did a tree-wide grep of `<<.*PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT' and this is the result.
- afs_rxfs_fetch_descriptor.offset is of type off_t, which seems broken.
- jfs and jffs are limited to 4GB anyway.
- reiserfs map_block_for_writepage() takes an unsigned long for the block -
it should take sector_t. (It'll fail for huge filesystems with
blocksize<PAGE_CACHE_SIZE)
- cramfs_read() needs to use sector_t (I think cramsfs is busted on large
filesystems anyway)
- affs is limited in file size anyway.
- I generally didn't fix 32-bit overflows in directory operations.
- arm's __flush_dcache_page() is peculiar. What if the page lies beyond 4G?
- gss_wrap_req_priv() needs checking (snd_buf->page_base)

When making an fctl locking call through compat_sys_fcntl64 (i.e. a 32bit
app on a 64bit kernel), the syscall can return a locking range that is in
conflict with the queried lock.
If some aspect of this range does not fit in the 32bit structure, something
needs to be done.
The current code is wrong in several respects:
- It returns data to userspace even if no conflict was found
i.e. it should check l_type for F_UNLCK
- It returns -EOVERFLOW too agressively. A lock range covering
the last possible byte of the file (start = COMPAT_OFF_T_MAX,
len = 1) should be possible, but is rejected with the current test.
- A extra-long 'len' should not be a problem. If only that part
of the conflicting lock that would be visible to the 32bit
app needs to be reported to the 32bit app anyway.
This patch addresses those three issues and adds a comment to (hopefully)
record it for posterity.
Note: this patch mainly affects test-cases. Real applications rarely is
ever see the problems.
This patch has been tested (LSB test suite), and works.

SUS requires that when truncating a file to the size that it currently
is:
truncate and ftruncate should NOT modify ctime or mtime
O_TRUNC SHOULD modify ctime and mtime.
Currently mtime and ctime are always modified on most local
filesystems (side effect of ->truncate) or never modified (on NFS).
With this patch:
ATTR_CTIME|ATTR_MTIME are sent with ATTR_SIZE precisely when
an update of these times is required whether size changes or not
(via a new argument to do_truncate). This allows NFS to do
the right thing for O_TRUNC.
inode_setattr nolonger forces ATTR_MTIME|ATTR_CTIME when the ATTR_SIZE
sets the size to it's current value. This allows local filesystems
to do the right thing for f?truncate.
Also, the logic in inode_setattr is changed a bit so there are two return
points. One returns the error from vmtruncate if it failed, the other
returns 0 (there can be no other failure).
Finally, if vmtruncate succeeds, and ATTR_SIZE is the only change
requested, we now fall-through and mark_inode_dirty. If a filesystem did
not have a ->truncate function, then vmtruncate will have changed i_size,
without marking the inode as 'dirty', and I think this is wrong.

The patch series implementa or fixes 3 things that were specifically requested
or suggested by relayfs users:
- support for non-relay files (patches 1-6)
Currently, the relayfs API only supports the creation of directories
(relayfs_create_dir()) and relay files (relay_open()). These patches adds
support for non-relay files (relayfs_create_file()). This is so relayfs
applications can create 'control files' in relayfs itself rather than in /proc
or via a netlink channel, as is currently done in the relay-app examples.
Basically what this amounts to is exporting relayfs_create_file() with an
additional file_ops param that clients can use to supply file operations for
their own special-purpose files in relayfs.
- make exported relay file ops useful (patches 7-8)
The relayfs relay_file_operations have always been exported, the intent being
to make it possible to create relay files in other filesystems such as
debugfs. The problem, though, is that currently the file operations are too
tightly coupled to relayfs to actually be used for this purpose. This patch
fixes that by adding a couple of callback functions that allow a client to
hook into relay_open()/close() and supply the files that will be used to
represent the channel buffers; the default implementation if no callbacks are
defined is to create the files in relayfs.
- add an option to create global relay buffer (patches 9-10) The file creation
callback also supplies an optional param, is_global, that can be used by
clients to create a single global relayfs buffer instead of the default
per-cpu buffers. This was suggested as being useful for certain debugging
applications where it's more convenient to be able to get all the data from a
single channel without having to go to the bother of dealing with per-cpu
files.
- cleanup, some renaming and Documentation updates (patches 11-12)
There were several comments that the use of netlink in the example code was
non-intuitive and in fact the whole relay-app business was needlessly
confusing. Based on that feedback, the example code has been completely
converted over to relayfs control files as supported by this patch, and have
also been made completely self-contained.
The converted examples along with a couple of new examples that demonstrate
using exported relay files can be found in relay-apps tarball:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/relayfs/relay-apps-0.9.tar.gz?download

Separate buffer create/destroy from inode create/destroy. We want to be able

This patch add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) and use it.
See mm/filemap.c:
And changes the filemap_write_and_wait() and filemap_write_and_wait_range().
Current filemap_write_and_wait() doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite()
returns error. However, even if filemap_fdatawrite() returned an
error, it may have submitted the partially data pages to the device.
(e.g. in the case of -ENOSPC)
<quotation>
Andrew Morton writes,
If filemap_fdatawrite() returns an error, this might be due to some
I/O problem: dead disk, unplugged cable, etc. Given the generally
crappy quality of the kernel's handling of such exceptions, there's a
good chance that the filemap_fdatawait() will get stuck in D state
forever.
</quotation>
So, this patch doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns the -EIO.
Trond, could you please review the nfs part? Especially I'm not sure,
nfs must use the "filemap_fdatawrite(inode->i_mapping) == 0", or not.

Even if ->prepare_write() returns an error, it may already have added some
blocks. So, this truncates blocks outside of ->i_size by vmtruncate().
- Add generic_cont_expand_simple().
The generic_cont_expand_simple() assumes that ->prepare_write() can handle
the block boundary. With this, we don't need to care the extra byte.
And for expanding a file size by truncate(), fatfs uses the

Add /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches. When written to, this will cause the kernel to

operation requires root permissions.
It won't drop dirty data, so the user should run `sync' first.
Caveats:
a) Holds inode_lock for exorbitant amounts of time.
b) Needs to be taught about NUMA nodes: propagate these all the way through
so the discarding can be controlled on a per-node basis.

If the server receives an NLM cancel call and finds no waiting lock to

just hadn't yet processed the NLM granted callback before it sent the
cancel.
The Open Group text, for example, perimts a server to return either success
(LCK_GRANTED) or failure (LCK_DENIED) in this case. But returning an error
seems more helpful; the client may be able to use it to recognize that a
race has occurred and to recover from the race.

The Open Group documentation says that "This procedure cancels an

Also, consider a client that holds a lock on the first byte of a file, and
requests a lock on the entire file. If the client cancels that request
(perhaps because the requesting process is signalled), the server shouldn't
apply perform an unlock on the entire file, since that will also remove the
previous lock that the client was already granted.
Or consider a lock request that actually *downgraded* an exclusive lock to

establish state on the server whether or not the user wants to
interrupt it. We may also need to schedule new work (including
new RPC calls) in order to cancel the new state.
The asynchronous RPC model will allow us to ensure that RPC calls
always complete, but in order to allow for "synchronous" RPC, we
want to add the ability to wait for completion.
The waits are, of course, interruptible.

Shrink the RPC task structure. Instead of storing separate pointers
for task->tk_exit and task->tk_release, put them in a structure.
Also pass the user data pointer as a parameter instead of passing it via
task->tk_calldata. This enables us to nest callbacks.

A typical nfsd call trace is
nfsd -> svc_process -> nfsd_dispatch -> nfsd3_proc_write ->
nfsd_write ->nfsd_vfs_write -> vfs_writev
These add up to over 300 bytes on the stack.
Looking at each of these, I see that nfsd_write (which includes
nfsd_vfs_write) contributes 0x8c to stack usage itself!!
It turns out this is because it puts a 'struct iattr' on the stack so
it can kill suid if needed. The following patch saves about 50 bytes
off the stack in this call path.

Both vfs_getattr and i_op->fsync return error statuses which nfsd was
largely ignoring. This as noticed when exporting directories using fuse.
This patch cleans up most of the offences, which involves moving the call
to vfs_getattr out of the xdr encoding routines (where it is too late to
report an error) into the main NFS procedure handling routines.
There is still a called to vfs_gettattr (related to the ACL code) where the
status is ignored, and called to nfsd_sync_dir don't check return status
either.

Split the checkpoint list of the transaction into two lists. In the first
list we keep the buffers that need to be submitted for IO. In the second

for the IO to complete. This should simplify a handling of checkpoint
lists a bit and can eventually be also a performance gain.

The attached patch makes ramfs support shared-writable mmaps by:
(1) Attempting to perform a contiguous block allocation to the requested size
when truncate attempts to increase the file from zero size, such as
happens when:
fd = shm_open("/file/on/ramfs", ...):
ftruncate(fd, size_requested);
addr = mmap(NULL, subsize, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE|PROT_EXEC, MAP_SHARED,
fd, offset);
(2) Permitting any shared-writable mapping over any contiguous set of extant
pages. get_unmapped_area() will return the address into the actual ramfs
pages. The mapping may start anywhere and be of any size, but may not go
over the end of file. Multiple mappings may overlap in any way.
(3) Not permitting a file to be shrunk if it would truncate any shared
mappings (private mappings are copied).
Thus this patch provides support for POSIX shared memory on NOMMU kernels,
with certain limitations such as there being a large enough block of pages
available to support the allocation and it only working on directly mappable
filesystems.

Implement copy-on-write support for hugetlb mappings so MAP_PRIVATE can be
supported. This helps us to safely use hugetlb pages in many more
applications. The patch makes the following changes. If needed, I also have
it broken out according to the following paragraphs.
1. Add a pair of functions to set/clear write access on huge ptes. The
writable check in make_huge_pte is moved out to the caller for use by COW
later.
2. Hugetlb copy-on-write requires special case handling in the following
situations:
- copy_hugetlb_page_range() - Copied pages must be write protected so
a COW fault will be triggered (if necessary) if those pages are written
to.
- find_or_alloc_huge_page() - Only MAP_SHARED pages are added to the
page cache. MAP_PRIVATE pages still need to be locked however.
3. Provide hugetlb_cow() and calls from hugetlb_fault() and
hugetlb_no_page() which handles the COW fault by making the actual copy.
4. Remove the check in hugetlbfs_file_map() so that MAP_PRIVATE mmaps
will be allowed. Make MAP_HUGETLB exempt from the depricated VM_RESERVED
mapping check.

Commit f549d6c18c introduced a generic
fallback for security xattrs, but appears to include a subtle bug.
Gentoo users with kernels with selinux compiled in, and coreutils compiled
with acl support, noticed that they could not copy files on tmpfs using
'cp'.
cp (compiled with acl support) copies the file, lists the extended
attributes on the old file, copies them all to the new file, and then
exits. However the listxattr() calls were failing with this odd behaviour:
llistxattr("a.out", (nil), 0) = 17
llistxattr("a.out", 0x7fffff8c6cb0, 17) = -1 ERANGE (Numerical result out of
range)
I believe this is a simple problem in the logic used to check the buffer
sizes; if the user sends a buffer the exact size of the data, then its ok
:)
This change solves the problem.
