In current 2.6.17 implementation, signal_struct refered from task_struct is
used for per-process data structure. The pacct facility also uses it as a
per-process data structure to store stime, utime, minflt, majflt. But those
members are saved in __exit_signal(). It's too late.
For example, if some threads exits at same time, pacct facility has a
possibility to drop accountings for a part of those threads. (see, the
following 'The results of original 2.6.17 kernel') I think accounting
information should be completely collected into the per-process data structure
before writing out an accounting record.
This patch fixes this matter. Accumulation of stime, utime, minflt and majflt
are done before generating accounting record.

When pacct facility generate an 'ac_flag' field in accounting record, it
refers a task_struct of the thread which died last in the process. But any
other task_structs are ignored.
Therefore, pacct facility drops ASU flag even if root-privilege operations are
used by any other threads except the last one. In addition, AFORK flag is
always set when the thread of group-leader didn't die last, although this
process has called execve() after fork().
We have a same matter in ac_exitcode. The recorded ac_exitcode is an exit
code of the last thread in the process. There is a possibility this exitcode
is not the group leader's one.
The pacct facility need an i/o operation when an accounting record is
generated. There is a possibility to wake OOM killer up. If OOM killer is
activated, it kills some processes to make them release process memory
regions.
But acct_process() is called in the killed processes context before calling
exit_mm(), so those processes cannot release own memory. In the results, any
processes stop in this point and it finally cause a system stall.

When the linkat() syscall was added the flag parameter was added in the
last minute but it wasn't used so far. The following patch should change
that. My tests show that this is all that's needed.
If OLDNAME is a symlink setting the flag causes linkat to follow the
symlink and create a hardlink with the target. This is actually the
behavior POSIX demands for link() as well but Linux wisely does not do
this. With this flag (which will most likely be in the next POSIX
revision) the programmer can choose the behavior, defaulting to the safe
variant. As a side effect it is now possible to implement a
POSIX-compliant link(2) function for those who are interested.
touch file
ln -s file symlink
linkat(fd, "symlink", fd, "newlink", 0)
-> newlink is hardlink of symlink
linkat(fd, "symlink", fd, "newlink", AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW)
-> newlink is hardlink of file
The value of AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW is determined by the definition we already
use in glibc.

I'm testing glibc on MIPS64, little-endian, N32, O32 and N64 multilibs.
Among the NPTL test failures seen are some arising from sigsuspend problems
for N32: it blocks the wrong signals, so SIGCANCEL (SIGRTMIN) is blocked
despite glibc's carefully excluding it from sets of signals to block.
Specifically, testing suggests it blocks signal N^32 instead of signal N,
so (in the example tested) blocking SIGUSR1 (17) blocks signal 49 instead.
glibc's sigset_t uses an array of unsigned long, as does the kernel.
In both cases, signal N+1 is represented as
(1UL << (N % (8 * sizeof (unsigned long)))) in word number
(N / (8 * sizeof (unsigned long))).
Thus the N32 glibc uses an array of 32-bit words and the N64 kernel uses an
array of 64-bit words. For little-endian, the layout is the same, with
signals 1-32 in the first 4 bytes, signals 33-64 in the second, etc.; for
big-endian, userspace has that layout while in the kernel each 8 bytes have
the two halves swapped from the userspace layout.
The N32 sigsuspend syscall uses sigset_from_compat to convert the userspace
sigset to kernel format. If __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__ is *not* set, this uses
logic of the form
set->sig[0] = compat->sig[0] | (((long)compat->sig[1]) << 32 )
to convert the userspace sigset to a kernel one. This looks correct to me
for both big and little endian, given that in userspace compat->sig[1] will
represent signals 33-64, and so will the high 32 bits of set->sig[0] in the
kernel. If however __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__ *is* set, as it is for
__MIPSEL__, it uses
set->sig[0] = compat->sig[1] | (((long)compat->sig[0]) << 32 );
which seems incorrect for both big and little endian, and would
explain the observed symptoms.
This code is the only use of __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__, so if incorrect
then that macro serves no purpose, in which case something like the
following patch would seem appropriate to remove it.

A few days ago Arjan signaled a lockdep red flag on epoll locks, and
precisely between the epoll's device structure lock (->lock) and the wait
queue head lock (->lock).
Like I explained in another email, and directly to Arjan, this can't happen
in reality because of the explicit check at eventpoll.c:592, that does not
allow to drop an epoll fd inside the same epoll fd. Since lockdep is
working on per-structure locks, it will never be able to know of policies
enforced in other parts of the code.
It was decided time ago of having the ability to drop epoll fds inside
other epoll fds, that triggers a very trick wakeup operations (due to
possibly reentrant callback-driven wakeups) handled by the
ep_poll_safewake() function. While looking again at the code though, I
noticed that all the operations done on the epoll's main structure wait
queue head (->wq) are already protected by the epoll lock (->lock), so that
locked-style functions can be used to manipulate the ->wq member. This
makes both a lock-acquire save, and lockdep happy.

Some of the in-kernel ext3 block variable type are treated as signed 4 bytes
int type, thus limited ext3 filesystem to 8TB (4kblock size based). While
trying to fix them, it seems quite confusing in the ext3 code where some
blocks are filesystem-wide blocks, some are group relative offsets that need
to be signed value (as -1 has special meaning). So it seem saner to define
two types of physical blocks: one is filesystem wide blocks, another is
group-relative blocks. The following patches clarify these two types of
blocks in the ext3 code, and fix the type bugs which limit current 32 bit ext3
filesystem limit to 8TB.
With this series of patches and the percpu counter data type changes in the mm
tree, we are able to extend exts filesystem limit to 16TB.
This work is also a pre-request for the recent >32 bit ext3 work, and makes
the kernel to able to address 48 bit ext3 block a lot easier: Simply redefine
ext3_fsblk_t from unsigned long to sector_t and redefine the format string for
ext3 filesystem block corresponding.
Two RFC with a series patches have been posted to ext2-devel list and have
been reviewed and discussed:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114722190816690&w=2http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114784919525942&w=2
Patches are tested on both 32 bit machine and 64 bit machine, <8TB ext3 and
>8TB ext3 filesystem(with the latest to be released e2fsprogs-1.39). Tests
includes overnight fsx, tiobench, dbench and fsstress.
This patch:
Defines ext3_fsblk_t and ext3_grpblk_t, and the printk format string for
filesystem wide blocks.
This patch classifies all block group relative blocks, and ext3_fsblk_t blocks
occurs in the same function where used to be confusing before. Also include
kernel bug fixes for filesystem wide in-kernel block variables. There are
some fileystem wide blocks are treated as int/unsigned int type in the kernel
currently, especially in ext3 block allocation and reservation code. This
patch fixed those bugs by converting those variables to ext3_fsblk_t(unsigned
long) type.

As described in a previous patch and documented in mm/filemap.h,
copy_from_user_inatomic* shouldn't zero out the tail of the buffer after an
incomplete copy.
This patch implements that change for i386.
For the _nocache version, a new __copy_user_intel_nocache is defined similar
to copy_user_zeroio_intel_nocache, and this is ultimately used for the copy.
For the regular version, __copy_from_user_ll_nozero is defined which uses
__copy_user and __copy_user_intel - the later needs casts to reposition the
__user annotations.
If copy_from_user_atomic is given a constant length of 1, 2, or 4, then we do
still zero the destintion on failure. This didn't seem worth the effort of
fixing as the places where it is used really don't care.

The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to
pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source address is
not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the* *destination*.
This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd thing
to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or what was
there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a reasonable thing
to see).
If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption
re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't cause an
error.
The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing so
causes the problem. It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than copy_from_user
so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic to *not* zero out
bytes on failure.
The first of these two patches prepares for the change by fixing two places
which assume copy_from_user_atomic does zero the tail. The two usages are
very similar pieces of code which copy from a userspace iovec into one or more
page-cache pages. These are changed to remove the assumption.
The second patch changes __copy_from_user_inatomic* to not zero the tail.
Once these are accepted, I will look at similar patches of other architectures
where this is important (ppc, mips and sparc being the ones I can find).
This patch:
There is a problem with __copy_from_user_inatomic zeroing the tail of the
buffer in the case of an error. As it is called in atomic context, the error
may be transient, so it results in zeros being written where maybe they
shouldn't be.
In the usage in filemap, this opens a window for a well timed read to see data
(zeros) which is not consistent with any ordering of reads and writes.
Most cases where __copy_from_user_inatomic is called, a failure results in
__copy_from_user being called immediately. As long as the latter zeros the
tail, the former doesn't need to. However in *copy_from_user_iovec
implementations (in both filemap and ntfs/file), it is assumed that
copy_from_user_inatomic will zero the tail.
This patch removes that assumption, so that after this patch it will
be safe for copy_from_user_inatomic to not zero the tail.
This patch also adds some commentary to filemap.h and asm-i386/uaccess.h.
After this patch, all architectures that might disable preempt when
kmap_atomic is called need to have their __copy_from_user_inatomic* "fixed".

- i386
- mips

This is a patch from Alan that fixes a real ide-cd.c regression causing

This is a forward port to 2.6.16 (from RHEL) of the minimal changes for the

locking is as horked as in mainstream.

Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163260
Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163261
Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163262
the unpatched kernel produces an incorrect error dump:
hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 }
ide: failed opcode was: unknown

Currently printk is no use for early debugging because it refuses to
actually print anything to the console unless
cpu_online(smp_processor_id()) is true.
The stated explanation is that console drivers may require per-cpu
resources, or otherwise barf, because the system is not yet setup
correctly. Fair enough.
However some console drivers might be quite happy running early during
boot, in fact we have one, and so it'd be nice if printk understood that.
So I added a flag (which I would have called CON_BOOT, but that's taken)
called CON_ANYTIME, which indicates that a console is happy to be called
anytime, even if the cpu is not yet online.
Tested on a Power 5 machine, with both a CON_ANYTIME driver and a bogus
console driver that BUG()s if called while offline. No problems AFAICT.

Currently to turn on debug mode "user" has to edit ~10 files, to turn off he
has to do it again.

2)remove unnecessary duplication of code
3)make "UFSD" macros more similar to function

There are two ugly macros in ufs code:
#define UCPI_UBH ((struct ufs_buffer_head *)ucpi)
#define USPI_UBH ((struct ufs_buffer_head *)uspi)
when uspi looks like
struct {
struct ufs_buffer_head ;
}
and USPI_UBH has some sence,
ucpi looks like
struct {
struct not_ufs_buffer_head;
}
To prevent bugs in future, this patch convert macros to inline function and
fix "ucpi" structure.

First of all some necessary notes about UFS by it self: To avoid waste of disk
space the tail of file consists not from blocks (which is ordinary big enough,
16K usually), it consists from fragments(which is ordinary 2K). When file is
growing its tail occupy 1 fragment, 2 fragments... At some stage decision to
allocate whole block is made and all fragments are moved to one block.
How this situation was handled before:
ufs_prepare_write
->block_prepare_write
->ufs_getfrag_block
->...
->ufs_new_fragments:
bh = sb_bread
bh->b_blocknr = result + i;
mark_buffer_dirty (bh);
This is wrong solution, because:
- it didn't take into consideration that there is another cache: "inode page
cache"
- because of sb_getblk uses not b_blocknr, (it uses page->index) to find
certain block, this breaks sb_getblk.
How this situation is handled now: we go though all "page inode cache", if
there are no such page in cache we load it into cache, and change b_blocknr.

There are several instances of per_cpu(foo, raw_smp_processor_id()), which
is semantically equivalent to __get_cpu_var(foo) but without the warning
that smp_processor_id() can give if CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled. For
those architectures with optimized per-cpu implementations, namely ia64,
powerpc, s390, sparc64 and x86_64, per_cpu() turns into more and slower
code than __get_cpu_var(), so it would be preferable to use __get_cpu_var
on those platforms.
This defines a __raw_get_cpu_var(x) macro which turns into per_cpu(x,
raw_smp_processor_id()) on architectures that use the generic per-cpu
implementation, and turns into __get_cpu_var(x) on the architectures that
have an optimized per-cpu implementation.

asm-i386/mach-*/setup_arch_pre/post.h headers, into
arch/i386/mach-*/setup.c. mach-*/setup_arch_pre.h is renamed to
setup_arch.h, and contains only things which should be in header files. It
is purely code-motion; there should be no functional changes at all.
Several functions in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c needed to be made non-static
so that they're visible to the code in mach-*/setup.c. asm-i386/setup.h is
used to hold the prototypes for these functions.

Hooks for calling vma specific migration functions
With this patch a vma may define a vma->vm_ops->migrate function. That
function may perform page migration on its own (some vmas may not contain page
structs and therefore cannot be handled by regular page migration. Pages in a
vma may require special preparatory treatment before migration is possible
etc) . Only mmap_sem is held when the migration function is called. The
migrate() function gets passed two sets of nodemasks describing the source and
the target of the migration. The flags parameter either contains
MPOL_MF_MOVE which means that only pages used exclusively by
the specified mm should be moved
or
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL which means that pages shared with other processes
should also be moved.
The migration function returns 0 on success or an error condition. An error
condition will prevent regular page migration from occurring.
On its own this patch cannot be included since there are no users for this
functionality. But it seems that the uncached allocator will need this
functionality at some point.

user apps that try to include videodev2.h (e.g., ekiga) and at least
on ia64, it causes compilation failures since <linux/types.h> doesn't

Currently in /sys/class/dvb/dvbX.demuxY/ we have:
dev
uevent
With the patch, we have (for a PCI DVB device):
dev
device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:03:0d.0
uevent
So userspace tools can (finally) work out which physical device a DVB adapter
refers to. Previously you had to kinda look through dmesg and hope that it
hadn't been dumped out of the buffer. This makes debugging a lot easier if
the system has been up for a long time!
This is done by adding an extra 'struct device *' parameter to
dvb_register_adapter(). It will work with any kind of standard
linux 'device'. Additionally, if someone has an embedded system which does
things differently, they can simply supply 'NULL' and the behaviour will be
as before - the link will simply not appear.

Some saa7115-based cards use a different crystal frequency and a different
audio clock generation. Add a new VIDIOC_INT_S_CRYSTAL_FREQ command to be
able to set these values.
Also change the default APLL setting to 0. It makes no sense to have the
audio clock independent from the video clock, this can lead to audio/video
synchronization problems. Setting this to 0 is also consistent with the old
saa7114.c source and the way the Hauppauge Windows driver sets it.

Neil Brown observed that the kmalloc() in nfs_get_user_pages() is more
likely to fail if the I/O is large enough to require the allocation of more
than a single page to keep track of all the pinned pages in the user's
buffer.
Instead of tracking one large page array per dreq/iocb, track pages per
nfs_read/write_data, just like the cached I/O path does. An array for
pages is already allocated for us by nfs_readdata_alloc() (and the write
and commit equivalents).
This is also required for adding support for vectored I/O to the NFS direct
I/O path.
The original reason to pin the user buffer and allocate all the NFS data
structures before trying to schedule I/O was to ensure all needed resources
are allocated on the client before starting to send requests. This reduces
the chance that resource exhaustion on the client will cause a short read
or write.
On the other hand, for an application making very large application I/O
requests, this means that it will be nearly impossible for the application
to make forward progress on a resource-limited client.
Thus, moving the buffer pinning functionality into the I/O scheduling
loops should be good for scalability. The next patch will do the same for
NFS data structure allocation.

On some sun4v systems, after netboot the ethernet controller and it's
DMA mappings can be left active. The net result is that the kernel
can end up using memory the ethernet controller will continue to DMA
into, resulting in corruption.
To deal with this, we are more careful about importing IOMMU
translations which OBP has left in the IO-TLB. If the mapping maps
into an area the firmware claimed was free and available memory for
the kernel to use, we demap instead of import that IOMMU entry.
This is going to cause the network chip to take a PCI master abort on
the next DMA it attempts, if it has been left going like this. All
tests show that this is handled properly by the PCI layer and the e1000
drivers.

A process flag to indicate whether we are doing sync io is incredibly
ugly. It also causes performance problems when one does a lot of async
io and then proceeds to sync it. Part of the io will go out as async,
and the other part as sync. This causes a disconnect between the
previously submitted io and the synced io. For io schedulers such as CFQ,
this will cause us lost merges and suboptimal behaviour in scheduling.
Remove PF_SYNCWRITE completely from the fsync/msync paths, and let
the O_DIRECT path just directly indicate that the writes are sync
by using WRITE_SYNC instead.

After a lot of reading the code and thinking about how it behaves I have
managed to figure out what the current ptrace locking rules are. The
current code is in much better that it appears at first glance. The
troublesome code paths are actually the code paths that violate the current
rules.
ptrace uses simple exclusive access as it's locking. You can only touch
task->ptrace if the task is stopped and you are the ptracer, or if the task
is running and are the task itself.
Very simple, very easy to maintain. It just needs to be documented so
people know not to touch ptrace from elsewhere.
Currently we do have a few pieces of code that are in violation of this
rule. Particularly the core dump code, and ptrace_attach. But so far the
code looks fixable.

The definition of the third parameter is a pointer to an array of virtual

I now use the correct type "compat_uptr_t __user *" in the definition of
the function in kernel/compat.c.
However, I used __u32 in syscalls.h. Would have to include compat.h there
in order to provide the same definition which would generate an ugly

On both ia64 and x86_64 compat_uptr_t is u32. So this works although

move_pages() is used to move individual pages of a process. The function can
be used to determine the location of pages and to move them onto the desired
node. move_pages() returns status information for each page.
long move_pages(pid, number_of_pages_to_move,
addresses_of_pages[],
nodes[] or NULL,
status[],
flags);
The addresses of pages is an array of void * pointing to the
pages to be moved.
The nodes array contains the node numbers that the pages should be moved
to. If a NULL is passed instead of an array then no pages are moved but
the status array is updated. The status request may be used to determine
the page state before issuing another move_pages() to move pages.
The status array will contain the state of all individual page migration
attempts when the function terminates. The status array is only valid if
move_pages() completed successfullly.
Possible page states in status[]:
0..MAX_NUMNODES The page is now on the indicated node.
-ENOENT Page is not present
-EACCES Page is mapped by multiple processes and can only
be moved if MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is specified.
-EPERM The page has been mlocked by a process/driver and
cannot be moved.
-EBUSY Page is busy and cannot be moved. Try again later.
-EFAULT Invalid address (no VMA or zero page).
-ENOMEM Unable to allocate memory on target node.
-EIO Unable to write back page. The page must be written
back in order to move it since the page is dirty and the
filesystem does not provide a migration function that
would allow the moving of dirty pages.
-EINVAL A dirty page cannot be moved. The filesystem does not provide
a migration function and has no ability to write back pages.
The flags parameter indicates what types of pages to move:
MPOL_MF_MOVE Move pages that are only mapped by the process.
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL Also move pages that are mapped by multiple processes.
Requires sufficient capabilities.
Possible return codes from move_pages()
-ENOENT No pages found that would require moving. All pages
are either already on the target node, not present, had an
invalid address or could not be moved because they were
mapped by multiple processes.
-EINVAL Flags other than MPOL_MF_MOVE(_ALL) specified or an attempt
to migrate pages in a kernel thread.
-EPERM MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL specified without sufficient priviledges.
or an attempt to move a process belonging to another user.
-EACCES One of the target nodes is not allowed by the current cpuset.
-ENODEV One of the target nodes is not online.
-ESRCH Process does not exist.
-E2BIG Too many pages to move.
-ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate control array.
-EFAULT Parameters could not be accessed.

Add a new VMA operation to notify a filesystem or other driver about the
MMU generating a fault because userspace attempted to write to a page
mapped through a read-only PTE.
This facility permits the filesystem or driver to:
(*) Implement storage allocation/reservation on attempted write, and so to
deal with problems such as ENOSPC more gracefully (perhaps by generating
SIGBUS).
(*) Delay making the page writable until the contents have been written to a
backing cache. This is useful for NFS/AFS when using FS-Cache/CacheFS.
It permits the filesystem to have some guarantee about the state of the
cache.
(*) Account and limit number of dirty pages. This is one piece of the puzzle
needed to make shared writable mapping work safely in FUSE.
Needed by cachefs (Or is it cachefiles? Or fscache? <head spins>).
At least four other groups have stated an interest in it or a desire to use
the functionality it provides: FUSE, OCFS2, NTFS and JFFS2. Also, things like
EXT3 really ought to use it to deal with the case of shared-writable mmap
encountering ENOSPC before we permit the page to be dirtied.

This implements the use of migration entries to preserve ptes of file backed
pages during migration. Processes can therefore be migrated back and forth
without loosing their connection to pagecache pages.
Note that we implement the migration entries only for linear mappings.
Nonlinear mappings still require the unmapping of the ptes for migration.
And another writepage() ugliness shows up. writepage() can drop the page
lock. Therefore we have to remove migration ptes before calling writepages()
in order to avoid having migration entries point to unlocked pages.

Implement read/write migration ptes
We take the upper two swapfiles for the two types of migration ptes and define
a series of macros in swapops.h.
The VM is modified to handle the migration entries. migration entries can
only be encountered when the page they are pointing to is locked. This limits
the number of places one has to fix. We also check in copy_pte_range and in
mprotect_pte_range() for migration ptes.
We check for migration ptes in do_swap_cache and call a function that will
then wait on the page lock. This allows us to effectively stop all accesses
to apge.
Migration entries are created by try_to_unmap if called for migration and
removed by local functions in migrate.c
From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>
Several times while testing swapless page migration (I've no NUMA, just
hacking it up to migrate recklessly while running load), I've hit the
BUG_ON(!PageLocked(p)) in migration_entry_to_page.
This comes from an orphaned migration entry, unrelated to the current
correctly locked migration, but hit by remove_anon_migration_ptes as it
checks an address in each vma of the anon_vma list.
Such an orphan may be left behind if an earlier migration raced with fork:
copy_one_pte can duplicate a migration entry from parent to child, after
remove_anon_migration_ptes has checked the child vma, but before it has
removed it from the parent vma. (If the process were later to fault on this
orphaned entry, it would hit the same BUG from migration_entry_wait.)
This could be fixed by locking anon_vma in copy_one_pte, but we'd rather
not. There's no such problem with file pages, because vma_prio_tree_add
adds child vma after parent vma, and the page table locking at each end is
enough to serialize. Follow that example with anon_vma: add new vmas to the
tail instead of the head.
(There's no corresponding problem when inserting migration entries,
because a missed pte will leave the page count and mapcount high, which is
allowed for. And there's no corresponding problem when migrating via swap,
because a leftover swap entry will be correctly faulted. But the swapless
method has no refcounting of its entries.)

pte_unmap_unlock() takes the pte pointer as an argument.
From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>
Several times while testing swapless page migration, gcc has tried to exec
a pointer instead of a string: smells like COW mappings are not being
properly write-protected on fork.
The protection in copy_one_pte looks very convincing, until at last you
realize that the second arg to make_migration_entry is a boolean "write",
and SWP_MIGRATION_READ is 30.
Anyway, it's better done like in change_pte_range, using
is_write_migration_entry and make_migration_entry_read.

When a writeback_control's `start' and `end' fields are used to
indicate a one-byte-range starting at file offset zero, the required
values of .start=0,.end=0 mean that the ->writepages() implementation
has no way of telling that it is being asked to perform a range
request. Because we're currently overloading (start == 0 && end == 0)
to mean "this is not a write-a-range request".
To make all this sane, the patch changes range of writeback_control.
So caller does: If it is calling ->writepages() to write pages, it
sets range (range_start/end or range_cyclic) always.
And if range_cyclic is true, ->writepages() thinks the range is
cyclic, otherwise it just uses range_start and range_end.
This patch does,
- Add LLONG_MAX, LLONG_MIN, ULLONG_MAX to include/linux/kernel.h
-1 is usually ok for range_end (type is long long). But, if someone did,
range_end += val; range_end is "val - 1"
u64val = range_end >> bits; u64val is "~(0ULL)"
or something, they are wrong. So, this adds LLONG_MAX to avoid nasty
things, and uses LLONG_MAX for range_end.
- All callers of ->writepages() sets range_start/end or range_cyclic.
- Fix updates of ->writeback_index. It seems already bit strange.
If it starts at 0 and ended by check of nr_to_write, this last
index may reduce chance to scan end of file. So, this updates
