a685e26fff [PATCH] ufs: alloc metadata null page fix
These series of patches result of UFS1 write support stress testing, like
running fsx-linux, untar and build linux kernel etc

We pass from ufs::get_block_t to levels below: pointer to the current page, to
make possible things like reallocation of blocks on the fly, and we also uses
this pointer for indication, what actually we allocate data block or meta data
block, but currently we make decision about what we allocate on the wrong
level, this may and cause oops if we allocate blocks in some special order.

ff79544754 [PATCH] fuse: fix bug in control filesystem mount
The BUG in fuse_ctl_add_dentry() could be triggered if the control
filesystem was unmounted and mounted again while one or more fuse
filesystems were present.

The fix is to reset the dentry counter in fuse_ctl_kill_sb().

Bug reported by Florent Mertens.

a0ad13ef64 [PATCH] knfsd: Fix type mismatch with filldir_t used by nfsd
nfsd defines a type 'encode_dent_fn' which is much like 'filldir_t' except
that the first pointer is 'struct readdir_cd *' rather than 'void *'.  It
then casts encode_dent_fn points to 'filldir_t' as needed.  This hides any
other type mismatches between the two such as the fact that the 'ino' arg
recently changed from ino_t to u64.

So: get rid of 'encode_dent_fn', get rid of the cast of the function type,
change the first arg of various functions from 'struct readdir_cd *' to
'void *', and live with the fact that we have a little less type checking
on the calling of these functions now.  Less internal (to nfsd) checking
offset by more external checking, which is more important.

c397852c3d [PATCH] knfsd: Don't mess with the 'mode' when storing a exclusive-create cookie
NFS V3 (and V4) support exclusive create by passing a 'cookie' which can get
stored with the file.  If the file exists but has exactly the right cookie
stored, then we assume this is a retransmit and the exclusive create was
successful.

The cookie is 64bits and is traditionally stored in the mtime and atime
fields.  This causes a problem with Solaris7 as negative mtime or atime
confuse it.  So we moved two bits into the mode word instead.

But inherited ACLs sometimes overwrite the mode word on create, so this is a
problem.

So we give up and just store 62 of the 64 bits and assume that is close
enough.

250f391518 [PATCH] knfsd: fix an NFSD bug with full sized, non-page-aligned reads
NFSd assumes that largest number of pages that will be needed for a
request+response is 2+N where N pages is the size of the largest permitted
read/write request.  The '2' are 1 for the non-data part of the request, and 1
for the non-data part of the reply.

However, when a read request is not page-aligned, and we choose to use
->sendfile to send it directly from the page cache, we may need N+1 pages to
hold the whole reply.  This can overflow and array and cause an Oops.

This patch increases size of the array for holding pages by one and makes sure
that entry is NULL when it is not in use.

f47aef55d9 [PATCH] i386 vDSO: use VM_ALWAYSDUMP
This patch fixes core dumps to include the vDSO vma, which is left out now.
It removes the special-case core writing macros, which were not doing the
right thing for the vDSO vma anyway.  Instead, it uses VM_ALWAYSDUMP in the
vma; there is no need for the fixmap page to be installed.  It handles the
CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO case by making elf_core_dump use the fake vma from
get_gate_vma after real vmas in the same way the /proc/PID/maps code does.

This changes core dumps so they no longer include the non-PT_LOAD phdrs from
the vDSO.  I made the change to add them in the first place, but in turned out
that nothing ever wanted them there since the advent of NT_AUXV.  It's cleaner
to leave them out, and just let the phdrs inside the vDSO image speak for
themselves.

4b89eed93e Write back inode data pages even when the inode itself is locked
In __writeback_single_inode(), when we find a locked inode and we're not
doing a data-integrity sync, we used to just skip writing entirely,
since we didn't want to wait for the inode to unlock.

However, there's really no reason to skip writing the data pages, which
are likely to be the the bulk of the dirty state anyway (and the main
reason why writeback was started for the non-data-integrity case, of
course!)

ecdfc9787f Resurrect 'try_to_free_buffers()' VM hackery
It's not pretty, but it appears that ext3 with data=journal will clean
pages without ever actually telling the VM that they are clean.  This,
in turn, will result in the VM (and balance_dirty_pages() in particular)
to never realize that the pages got cleaned, and wait forever for an
event that already happened.

Technically, this seems to be a problem with ext3 itself, but it used to
be hidden by 'try_to_free_buffers()' noticing this situation on its own,
and just working around the filesystem problem.

This commit re-instates that hack, in order to avoid a regression for
the 2.6.20 release. This fixes bugzilla 7844:

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7844

Peter Zijlstra points out that we should probably retain the debugging
code that this removes from cancel_dirty_page(), and I agree, but for
the imminent release we might as well just silence the warning too
(since it's not a new bug: anything that triggers that warning has been
around forever).

de14569f94 [PATCH] resierfs: avoid tail packing if an inode was ever mmapped
This patch fixes a confusion reiserfs has for a long time.

On release file operation reiserfs used to try to pack file data stored in
last incomplete page of some files into metadata blocks.  After packing the
page got cleared with clear_page_dirty.  It did not take into account that
the page may be mmaped into other process's address space.  Recent
replacement for clear_page_dirty cancel_dirty_page found the confusion with
sanity check that page has to be not mapped.

The patch fixes the confusion by making reiserfs avoid tail packing if an
inode was ever mmapped.  reiserfs_mmap and reiserfs_file_release are
serialized with mutex in reiserfs specific inode.  reiserfs_mmap locks the
mutex and sets a bit in reiserfs specific inode flags.
reiserfs_file_release checks the bit having the mutex locked.  If bit is
set - tail packing is avoided.  This eliminates a possibility that mmapped
page gets cancel_page_dirty-ed.

8e6f195af0 [CIFS] Fix oops when Windows server sent bad domain name null terminator
Fixes RedHat bug 211672

Windows sends one byte (instead of two) of null to terminate final Unicode
string (domain name) in session setup response in some cases - this caused
cifs to misalign some informational strings (making it hard to convert
from UCS16 to UTF8).

592282cf2e ocfs2: Directory c/mtime update fixes
ocfs2 wasn't updating c/mtime on directories during dirent
creation/deletion. Fix ocfs2_unlink(), ocfs2_rename() and
__ocfs2_add_entry() by adding the proper code to update the struct inode and
push the change out to disk.

This helps rename/unlink on nfs exported file systems in particular as those
clients compare directory time values to avoid a full re-reading a directory
which hasn't changed.

ocfs2_rename() loses some superfluous error handling as a result of this
patch.

4aa0d230c2 JFS: call io_schedule() instead of schedule() to avoid deadlock
The introduction of Jens Axboe's explicit i/o plugging patches introduced a
deadlock in jfs.  This was caused by the process initiating I/O not
unplugging the queue before waiting on the commit thread.  The commit
thread itself was waiting for that I/O to complete.  Calling io_schedule()
rather than schedule() unplugs the I/O queue avoiding the deadlock, and it
appears to be the right function to call in any case.

e3db7691e9 [PATCH] NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page()
NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page()

    invalidate_inode_pages2() may find the dirty bit has been set on a page
    owing to the fact that the page may still be mapped after it was locked.
    Only after the call to unmap_mapping_range() are we sure that the page
    can no longer be dirtied.
    In order to fix this, NFS has hooked the releasepage() method and tries
    to write the page out between the call to unmap_mapping_range() and the
    call to remove_mapping(). This, however leads to deadlocks in the page
    reclaim code, where the page may be locked without holding a reference
    to the inode or dentry.

    Fix is to add a new address_space_operation, launder_page(), which will
    attempt to write out a dirty page without releasing the page lock.

d63b70902b [PATCH] fix garbage instead of zeroes in UFS
Looks like this is the problem, which point Al Viro some time ago:

ufs's get_block callback allocates 16k of disk at a time, and links that
entire 16k into the file's metadata.  But because get_block is called for only
a single buffer_head (a 2k buffer_head in this case?) we are only able to tell
the VFS that this 2k is buffer_new().

So when ufs_getfrag_block() is later called to map some more data in the file,
and when that data resides within the remaining 14k of this fragment,
ufs_getfrag_block() will incorrectly return a !buffer_new() buffer_head.

I don't see _right_ way to do nullification of whole block, if use inode
page cache, some pages may be outside of inode limits (inode size), and
will be lost; if use blockdev page cache it is possible to zero real data,
if later inode page cache will be used.

The simpliest way, as can I see usage of block device page cache, but not only
mark dirty, but also sync it during "nullification".  I use my simple tests
collection, which I used for check that create,open,write,read,close works on
ufs, and I see that this patch makes ufs code 18% slower then before.

be6aab0e9f [PATCH] fix memory corruption from misinterpreted bad_inode_ops return values
CVE-2006-5753 is for a case where an inode can be marked bad, switching
the ops to bad_inode_ops, which are all connected as:

static int return_EIO(void)
{
        return -EIO;
}

#define EIO_ERROR ((void *) (return_EIO))

static struct inode_operations bad_inode_ops =
{
        .create         = bad_inode_create
...etc...

The problem here is that the void cast causes return types to not be
promoted, and for ops such as listxattr which expect more than 32 bits of
return value, the 32-bit -EIO is interpreted as a large positive 64-bit
number, i.e. 0x00000000fffffffa instead of 0xfffffffa.

This goes particularly badly when the return value is taken as a number of
bytes to copy into, say, a user's buffer for example...

I originally had coded up the fix by creating a return_EIO_<TYPE> macro
for each return type, like this:

static int return_EIO_int(void)
{
	return -EIO;
}
#define EIO_ERROR_INT ((void *) (return_EIO_int))

static struct inode_operations bad_inode_ops =
{
	.create		= EIO_ERROR_INT,
...etc...

but Al felt that it was probably better to create an EIO-returner for each
actual op signature.  Since so few ops share a signature, I just went ahead
& created an EIO function for each individual file & inode op that returns
a value.

1ebb1101c5 [PATCH] Fix lock inversion aio_kick_handler()
lockdep found a AB BC CA lock inversion in retry-based AIO:

1) The task struct's alloc_lock (A) is acquired in process context with
   interrupts enabled.  An interrupt might arrive and call wake_up() which
   grabs the wait queue's q->lock (B).

2) When performing retry-based AIO the AIO core registers
   aio_wake_function() as the wake funtion for iocb->ki_wait.  It is called
   with the wait queue's q->lock (B) held and then tries to add the iocb to
   the run list after acquiring the ctx_lock (C).

3) aio_kick_handler() holds the ctx_lock (C) while acquiring the
   alloc_lock (A) via lock_task() and unuse_mm().  Lockdep emits a warning
   saying that we're trying to connect the irq-safe q->lock to the
   irq-unsafe alloc_lock via ctx_lock.

This fixes the inversion by calling unuse_mm() in the AIO kick handing path
after we've released the ctx_lock.  As Ben LaHaise pointed out __put_ioctx
could set ctx->mm to NULL, so we must only access ctx->mm while we have the
lock.

In the current jbd code, if a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is dirty and not

waited for IO completion.

But the fsstress test showed the case that when a buffer was already
submitted to the IO just before the buffer_dirty(bh) check, the buffer was
not waited for IO completion.

Following patch solves this problem.  If it is assumed that a buffer is
submitted to the IO before the buffer_dirty(bh) check and still being
written to disk, this buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list.

ba3ff12fca [PATCH] fsstack: Remove inode copy
Trevor found a file size problem in eCryptfs in recent kernels, and he
tracked it down to an fsstack change.

This was the eCryptfs copy_attr_all:

> -void ecryptfs_copy_attr_all(struct inode *dest, const struct inode *src)
> -{
> -       dest->i_mode = src->i_mode;

> -       dest->i_blkbits = src->i_blkbits;
> -       dest->i_flags = src->i_flags;
> -}

This is the fsstack copy_attr_all:

The addition of copy_inode_size breaks eCryptfs, since eCryptfs needs to
interpolate the file sizes (eCryptfs has extra space in the lower file for
the header).  The setting of the upper inode size occurs elsewhere in
eCryptfs, and the new copy_attr_all now undoes what eCryptfs was doing
right beforehand.

I see three ways of going forward from here.  (1) Something like this patch
needs to go in (assuming it jives with Unionfs), (2) we need to make a
change to the fsstack API for more fine-grained control over copying
attributes (e.g., by also including a callback function for calculating the
right file size, which will require some more work on both eCryptfs and
Unionfs), or (3) the fsstack patch on eCryptfs (commit
0cc72dc7f0 made on Fri Dec 8 02:36:31 2006
-0800) needs to be yanked in 2.6.20.

I think the simplest solution, from eCryptfs' perspective, is to just
remove the inode size copy.

Remove inode size copy in general fsstack attr copy code. Stacked
filesystems may need to interpolate the inode size, since the file
size in the lower file may be different than the file size in the
stacked layer.

921320210b [PATCH] Fix XFS after clear_page_dirty() removal
XFS appears to call clear_page_dirty to get the mapping tree dirty tag
set correctly at the same time the page dirty flag is cleared.  I note
that this can be done by set_page_writeback() if we clear the dirty flag
on the page first when we are writing back the entire page.

Hence it seems to me that the XFS call to clear_page_dirty() could
easily be substituted by clear_page_dirty_for_io() followed by a call to
set_page_writeback() to get the mapping tree tags set correctly after
the page has been marked clean.

d0e671a932 [PATCH] Fix JFS after clear_page_dirty() removal
This patch removes some questionable code that attempted to make a
no-longer-used page easier to reclaim.

Calling metapage_writepage against such a page will not result in any
I/O being performed, so removing this code shouldn't be a big deal.

[ It's likely that we could have just replaced the "clear_page_dirty()"
  call with a call to "cancel_dirty_page()" instead, but in the
  meantime this is cleaner and simpler anyway, so unless there is some
  overriding reason (and Dave implies there isn't) I'll just use this
  patch as-is.			- Linus ]

fba2591bf4 VM: Remove "clear_page_dirty()" and "test_clear_page_dirty()" functions
They were horribly easy to mis-use because of their tempting naming, and
they also did way more than any users of them generally wanted them to
do.

A dirty page can become clean under two circumstances:

 (a) when we write it out.  We have "clear_page_dirty_for_io()" for
     this, and that function remains unchanged.

     In the "for IO" case it is not sufficient to just clear the dirty
     bit, you also have to mark the page as being under writeback etc.

 (b) when we actually remove a page due to it becoming inaccessible to
     users, notably because it was truncate()'d away or the file (or
     metadata) no longer exists, and we thus want to cancel any
     outstanding dirty state.

For the (b) case, we now introduce "cancel_dirty_page()", which only
touches the page state itself, and verifies that the page is not mapped
(since cancelling writes on a mapped page would be actively wrong as it
is still accessible to users).

Some filesystems need to be fixed up for this: CIFS, FUSE, JFS,
ReiserFS, XFS all use the old confusing functions, and will be fixed
separately in subsequent commits (with some of them just removing the
offending logic, and others using clear_page_dirty_for_io()).

This was confirmed by Martin Michlmayr to fix the apt database
corruption on ARM.

29a7f3ada7 DebugFS : file/directory removal fix
Fix file and directory removal in debugfs. Add inotify support for file removal.

The following scenario :
create dir a
create dir a/b

cd a/b (some process goes in cwd a/b)

rmdir a/b
rmdir a

fails due to the fact that "a" appears to be non empty. It is because
the "b" dentry is not deleted from "a" and still in use. The same
problem happens if "b" is a file. d_delete is nice enough to know when
it needs to unhash and free the dentry if nothing else is using it or,
if someone is using it, to remove it from the hash queues and wait for
it to be deleted when it has no users.

The nice side-effect of this fix is that it calls the file removal
notification.

Correct dentry count to handle creation errors.

This patch puts a dput at the file creation instead of the file removal :
lookup_one_len already returns a dentry with reference count of 1. Then,
the dget() in simple_mknod increments it when the dentry is associated
with a file. In a scenario where simple_create or simple_mkdir returns
an error, this would lead to an unwanted increment of the reference
counter, therefore making file removal impossible.

e0bb89ef03 [PATCH] knfsd: nfsd: don't drop silently on upcall deferral
To avoid tying up server threads when nfsd makes an upcall (to mountd, to get
export options, to idmapd, for nfsv4 name<->id mapping, etc.), we temporarily
"drop" the request and save enough information so that we can revisit it
later.

Certain failures during the deferral process can cause us to really drop the
request and never revisit it.

This is often less than ideal, and is unacceptable in the NFSv4 case--rfc 3530
forbids the server from dropping a request without also closing the
connection.

As a first step, we modify the deferral code to return -ETIMEDOUT (which is
translated to nfserr_jukebox in the v3 and v4 cases, and remains a drop in the
v2 case).

90aef12e6d [PATCH] Use activate_mm() in fs/aio.c:use_mm()
activate_mm() is not the right thing to be using in use_mm().  It should be
switch_mm().

On normal x86, they're synonymous, but for the Xen patches I'm adding a
hook which assumes that activate_mm is only used the first time a new mm
is used after creation (I have another hook for dealing with dup_mm).  I
think this use of activate_mm() is the only place where it could be used
a second time on an mm.

>From a quick look at the other architectures I think this is OK (most
simply implement one in terms of the other), but some are doing some
subtly different stuff between the two.

e61c90188b [PATCH] optimize o_direct on block devices
Implement block device specific .direct_IO method instead of going through
generic direct_io_worker for block device.

direct_io_worker() is fairly complex because it needs to handle O_DIRECT on
file system, where it needs to perform block allocation, hole detection,
extents file on write, and tons of other corner cases.  The end result is
that it takes tons of CPU time to submit an I/O.

For block device, the block allocation is much simpler and a tight triple
loop can be written to iterate each iovec and each page within the iovec in
order to construct/prepare bio structure and then subsequently submit it to
the block layer.  This significantly speeds up O_D on block device.

8993780a6e Make SLES9 "get_kernel_version" work on the kernel binary again
As reported by Andy Whitcroft, at least the SLES9 initrd build process
depends on getting the kernel version from the kernel binary.  It does
that by simply trawling the binary and looking for the signature of the
"linux_banner" string (the string "Linux version " to be exact. Which
is really broken in itself, but whatever..)

That got broken when the string was changed to allow /proc/version to
change the UTS release information dynamically, and "get_kernel_version"
thus returned "%s" (see commit a2ee8649ba:
"[PATCH] Fix linux banner utsname information").

This just restores "linux_banner" as a static string, which should fix
the version finding.  And /proc/version simply uses a different string.

To avoid wasting even that miniscule amount of memory, the early boot
string should really be marked __initdata, but that just causes the same
bug in SLES9 to re-appear, since it will then find other occurrences of
"Linux version " first.

5466b456ed [PATCH] fdtable: Implement new pagesize-based fdtable allocator
This patch provides an improved fdtable allocation scheme, useful for
expanding fdtable file descriptor entries.  The main focus is on the fdarray,
as its memory usage grows 128 times faster than that of an fdset.

The allocation algorithm sizes the fdarray in such a way that its memory usage
increases in easy page-sized chunks. The overall algorithm expands the allowed
size in powers of two, in order to amortize the cost of invoking vmalloc() for
larger allocation sizes. Namely, the following sizes for the fdarray are
considered, and the smallest that accommodates the requested fd count is
chosen:

    pagesize / 4
    pagesize / 2
    pagesize      <- memory allocator switch point
    pagesize * 2
    pagesize * 4
    ...etc...

Unlike the current implementation, this allocation scheme does not require a
loop to compute the optimal fdarray size, and can be done in efficient
straightline code.

Furthermore, since the fdarray overflows the pagesize boundary long before any
of the fdsets do, it makes sense to optimize run-time by allocating both
fdsets in a single swoop.  Even together, they will still be, by far, smaller
than the fdarray.  The fdtable->open_fds is now used as the anchor for the
fdset memory allocation.

4fd45812cb [PATCH] fdtable: Remove the free_files field
An fdtable can either be embedded inside a files_struct or standalone (after
being expanded).  When an fdtable is being discarded after all RCU references
to it have expired, we must either free it directly, in the standalone case,
or free the files_struct it is contained within, in the embedded case.

Currently the free_files field controls this behavior, but we can get rid of
it entirely, as all the necessary information is already recorded.  We can
distinguish embedded and standalone fdtables using max_fds, and if it is
embedded we can divine the relevant files_struct using container_of().

bbea9f6966 [PATCH] fdtable: Make fdarray and fdsets equal in size
Currently, each fdtable supports three dynamically-sized arrays of data: the
fdarray and two fdsets.  The code allows the number of fds supported by the
fdarray (fdtable->max_fds) to differ from the number of fds supported by each
of the fdsets (fdtable->max_fdset).

In practice, it is wasteful for these two sizes to differ: whenever we hit a
limit on the smaller-capacity structure, we will reallocate the entire fdtable
and all the dynamic arrays within it, so any delta in the memory used by the
larger-capacity structure will never be touched at all.

Rather than hogging this excess, we shouldn't even allocate it in the first
place, and keep the capacities of the fdarray and the fdsets equal.  This
patch removes fdtable->max_fdset.  As an added bonus, most of the supporting
code becomes simpler.

5eb6c7a2ab [PATCH] dio: lock refcount operations
The wait_for_more_bios() function name was poorly chosen.  While looking to
clean it up it I noticed that the dio struct refcounting between the bio
completion and dio submission paths was racey.

The bio submission path was simply freeing the dio struct if
atomic_dec_and_test() indicated that it dropped the final reference.

The aio bio completion path was dereferencing its dio struct pointer *after
dropping its reference* based on the remaining number of references.

These two paths could race and result in the aio bio completion path
dereferencing a freed dio, though this was not observed in the wild.

This moves the refcount under the bio lock so that bio completion can drop
its reference and decide to wake all in one atomic step.

Once testing and waking is locked dio_await_one() can test its sleeping
condition and mark itself uninterruptible under the lock.  It gets simpler
and wait_for_more_bios() disappears.

The addition of the interrupt masking spin lock acquiry in dio_bio_submit()
looks alarming.  This lock acquiry existed in that path before the recent
dio completion patch set.  We shouldn't expect significant performance
regression from returning to the behaviour that existed before the
completion clean up work.

This passed 4k block ext3 O_DIRECT fsx and aio-stress on an SMP machine.

8459d86aff [PATCH] dio: only call aio_complete() after returning -EIOCBQUEUED
The only time it is safe to call aio_complete() is when the ->ki_retry
function returns -EIOCBQUEUED to the AIO core.  direct_io_worker() has
historically done this by relying on its caller to translate positive return
codes into -EIOCBQUEUED for the aio case.  It did this by trying to keep
conditionals in sync.  direct_io_worker() knew when finished_one_bio() was
going to call aio_complete().  It would reverse the test and wait and free the
dio in the cases it thought that finished_one_bio() wasn't going to.

Not surprisingly, it ended up getting it wrong.  'ret' could be a negative
errno from the submission path but it failed to communicate this to
finished_one_bio().  direct_io_worker() would return < 0, it's callers
wouldn't raise -EIOCBQUEUED, and aio_complete() would be called.  In the
future finished_one_bio()'s tests wouldn't reflect this and aio_complete()
would be called for a second time which can manifest as an oops.

The previous cleanups have whittled the sync and async completion paths down
to the point where we can collapse them and clearly reassert the invariant
that we must only call aio_complete() after returning -EIOCBQUEUED.
direct_io_worker() will only return -EIOCBQUEUED when it is not the last to
drop the dio refcount and the aio bio completion path will only call
aio_complete() when it is the last to drop the dio refcount.
direct_io_worker() can ensure that it is the last to drop the reference count
by waiting for bios to drain.  It does this for sync ops, of course, and for
partial dio writes that must fall back to buffered and for aio ops that saw
errors during submission.

This means that operations that end up waiting, even if they were issued as
aio ops, will not call aio_complete() from dio.  Instead we return the return
code of the operation and let the aio core call aio_complete().  This is
purposely done to fix a bug where AIO DIO file extensions would call
aio_complete() before their callers have a chance to update i_size.

Now that direct_io_worker() is explicitly returning -EIOCBQUEUED its callers
no longer have to translate for it.  XFS needs to be careful not to free
resources that will be used during AIO completion if -EIOCBQUEUED is returned.
 We maintain the previous behaviour of trying to write fs metadata for O_SYNC
aio+dio writes.

20258b2b39 [PATCH] dio: remove duplicate bio wait code
Now that we have a single refcount and waiting path we can reuse it in the
async 'should_wait' path.  It continues to rely on the fragile link between
the conditional in dio_complete_aio() which decides to complete the AIO and
the conditional in direct_io_worker() which decides to wait and free.

By waiting before dropping the reference we stop dio_bio_end_aio() from
calling dio_complete_aio() which used to wake up the waiter after seeing the
reference count drop to 0.  We hoist this wake up into dio_bio_end_aio() which
now notices when it's left a single remaining reference that is held by the
waiter.

0273201e69 [PATCH] dio: formalize bio counters as a dio reference count
Previously we had two confusing counts of bio progress.  'bio_count' was
decremented as bios were processed and freed by the dio core.  It was used to
indicate final completion of the dio operation.  'bios_in_flight' reflected
how many bios were between submit_bio() and bio->end_io.  It was used by the
sync path to decide when to wake up and finish completing bios and was ignored
by the async path.

This patch collapses the two notions into one notion of a dio reference count.
 bios hold a dio reference when they're between submit_bio and bio->end_io.

Since bios_in_flight was only used in the sync path it is now equivalent to
dio->refcount - 1 which accounts for direct_io_worker() holding a reference
for the duration of the operation.

dio_bio_complete() -> finished_one_bio() was called from the sync path after
finding bios on the list that the bio->end_io function had deposited.
finished_one_bio() can not drop the dio reference on behalf of these bios now
because bio->end_io already has.  The is_async test in finished_one_bio()
meant that it never actually did anything other than drop the bio_count for
sync callers.  So we remove its refcount decrement, don't call it from
dio_bio_complete(), and hoist its call up into the async dio_bio_complete()
caller after an explicit refcount decrement.  It is renamed dio_complete_aio()
to reflect the remaining work it actually does.

We only need to call blk_run_address_space() once after all the bios for the
direct IO op have been submitted.  This removes the chance of calling
blk_run_address_space() after spurious wake ups as the sync path waits for
bios to drain.  It's also one less difference betwen the sync and async paths.

In the process we remove a redundant dio_bio_submit() that its caller had

6d544bb4d9 [PATCH] dio: centralize completion in dio_complete()
There have been a lot of bugs recently due to the way direct_io_worker() tries
to decide how to finish direct IO operations.  In the worst examples it has
failed to call aio_complete() at all (hang) or called it too many times
(oops).

This set of patches cleans up the completion phase with the goal of removing
the complexity that lead to these bugs.  We end up with one path that
calculates the result of the operation after all off the bios have completed.
We decide when to generate a result of the operation using that path based on
the final release of a refcount on the dio structure.

I tried to progress towards the final state in steps that were relatively easy
to understand.  Each step should compile but I only tested the final result of
having all the patches applied.

I've tested these on low end PC drives with aio-stress, the direct IO tests I
could manage to get running in LTP, orasim, and some home-brew functional
tests.

In http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/9/21/103 IBM reports success with ext2 and ext3
running DIO LTP tests.  They found that XFS bug which has since been addressed
in the patch series.

This patch:

The mechanics which decide the result of a direct IO operation were duplicated
in the sync and async paths.

The async path didn't check page_errors which can manifest as silently
returning success when the final pointer in an operation faults and its
matching file region is filled with zeros.

The sync path and async path differed in whether they passed errors to the
caller's dio->end_io operation.  The async path was passing errors to it which
trips an assertion in XFS, though it is apparently harmless.

This centralizes the completion phase of dio ops in one place.  AIO will now
return EFAULT consistently and all paths fall back to the previously sync
behaviour of passing the number of bytes 'transferred' to the dio->end_io
callback, regardless of errors.

dio_await_completion() doesn't have to propogate EIO from non-uptodate bios
now that it's being propogated through dio_complete() via dio->io_error.  This
lets it return void which simplifies its sole caller.

aba76fdb8a [PATCH] io-accounting: report in procfs
Add a simple /proc/pid/io to show the IO accounting fields.

Maybe this shouldn't be merged in mainline - the preferred reporting channel
is taskstats.  But given the poor state of our userspace support for
taskstats, this is useful for developer-testing, at least.  And it improves
the changes that the procps developers will wire it up into top(1).  Opinions
are sought.

The patch also wires up the existing IO-accounting fields.

It's a bit racy on 32-bit machines: if process A reads process B's
/proc/pid/io while process B is updating one of those 64-bit counters, process
A could see an intermediate result.

55e829af06 [PATCH] io-accounting: write accounting
Accounting writes is fairly simple: whenever a process flips a page from clean
to dirty, we accuse it of having caused a write to underlying storage of
PAGE_CACHE_SIZE bytes.

This may overestimate the amount of writing: the page-dirtying may cause only
one buffer_head's worth of writeout.  Fixing that is possible, but probably a
bit messy and isn't obviously important.

c17bb49517 [PATCH] fault-injection capability for disk IO
This patch provides fault-injection capability for disk IO.

Boot option:

fail_make_request=<probability>,<interval>,<space>,<times>

	<interval> -- specifies the interval of failures.

	<probability> -- specifies how often it should fail in percent.

	<space> -- specifies the size of free space where disk IO can be issued
		   safely in bytes.

	<times> -- specifies how many times failures may happen at most.

Debugfs:

/debug/fail_make_request/interval
/debug/fail_make_request/probability
/debug/fail_make_request/specifies
/debug/fail_make_request/times

Example:

	fail_make_request=10,100,0,-1
	echo 1 > /sys/blocks/hda/hda1/make-it-fail

generic_make_request() on /dev/hda1 fails once per 10 times.

f0d1b0b30d [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel
This facility provides three entry points:

	ilog2()		Log base 2 of unsigned long
	ilog2_u32()	Log base 2 of u32
	ilog2_u64()	Log base 2 of u64

These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:

	int do_something(long q)
	{
		...;
		y = ilog2(x)
		...;
	}

Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:

	unsigned n = ilog2(27);

When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant.  They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.

When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

37be41241f [PATCH] lockdep: simplify some aspects of bd_mutex nesting
When we open (actually blkdev_get) a partition we need to also open (get) the
whole device that holds the partition.  The involves some limited recursion.
This patch tries to simplify some aspects of this.

As well as opening the whole device, we need to increment ->bd_part_count when
a partition is opened (this is used by rescan_partitions to avoid a rescan if
any partition is active, as that would be confusing).

The main change this patch makes is to move the inc/dec of bd_part_count into
blkdev_{get,put} for the whole rather than doing it in blkdev_{get,put} for
the partition.

More specifically, we introduce __blkdev_get and __blkdev_put which do exactly
what blkdev_{get,put} did, only with an extra "for_part" argument
(blkget_{get,put} then call the __ version with a '0' for the extra argument).

If for_part is 1, then the blkdev is being get(put) because a partition is
being opened(closed) for the first(last) time, and so bd_part_count should be
updated (on success).  The particular advantage of pushing this function down
is that the bd_mutex lock (which is needed to update bd_part_count) is already
held at the lower level.

Note that this slightly changes the semantics of bd_part_count.  Instead of
updating it whenever a partition is opened or released, it is now only updated
on the first open or last release.  This is an adequate semantic as it is only
ever tested for "== 0".

Having introduced these functions we remove the current bd_part_count updates
from do_open (which is really the body of blkdev_get) and call
__blkdev_get(...  1).  Similarly in blkget_put we remove the old bd_part_count
updates and call __blkget_put(..., 1).  This call is moved to the end of
__blkdev_put to avoid nested locks of bd_mutex.

Finally the mutex_lock on whole->bd_mutex in do_open can be removed.  It was
only really needed to protect bd_part_count, and that is now managed (and
protected) within the recursive call.

24ec839c43 [PATCH] tty: ->signal->tty locking
Fix the locking of signal->tty.

Use ->sighand->siglock to protect ->signal->tty; this lock is already used
by most other members of ->signal/->sighand.  And unless we are 'current'
or the tasklist_lock is held we need ->siglock to access ->signal anyway.

(NOTE: sys_unshare() is broken wrt ->sighand locking rules)

Note that tty_mutex is held over tty destruction, so while holding
tty_mutex any tty pointer remains valid.  Otherwise the lifetime of ttys
are governed by their open file handles.  This leaves some holes for tty
access from signal->tty (or any other non file related tty access).

It solves the tty SLAB scribbles we were seeing.

(NOTE: the change from group_send_sig_info to __group_send_sig_info needs to
       be examined by someone familiar with the security framework, I think
       it is safe given the SEND_SIG_PRIV from other __group_send_sig_info
       invocations)

Twenty characters in cp936 are not correctly handled.  They're all in the
U00 plane.  nls_cp936 converts all U00XY to XY but this is not correct for
some characters.(e.g.  U00B7 -> A1A4, U00A8 -> A1A7).

This problem is fixed by generating u2c_00 based on all c2u_xx and changing
uni2char() to give U00 plane a special handling.  The "€"(U20AC,80 in
cp936) is also be handled properly.

c949d4eb40 [PATCH] autofs: fix error code path in autofs_fill_sb()
When kernel is compiled with old version of autofs (CONFIG_AUTOFS_FS), and
new (observed at least with 5.x.x) automount deamon is started, kernel
correctly reports incompatible version of kernel and userland daemon, but
then screws things up instead of correct handling of the error:

 autofs: kernel does not match daemon version
 =====================================
 [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
 -------------------------------------
 automount/4199 is trying to release lock (&type->s_umount_key) at:
 [<c0163b9e>] get_sb_nodev+0x76/0xa4
 but there are no more locks to release!

 other info that might help us debug this:
 no locks held by automount/4199.

 Leftover inexact backtrace:
  =======================

and then deadlock comes.

The problem: autofs_fill_super() returns EINVAL to get_sb_nodev(), but
before that, it calls kill_anon_super() to destroy the superblock which
won't be needed.  This is however way too soon to call kill_anon_super(),
because get_sb_nodev() has to perform its own cleanup of the superblock
first (deactivate_super(), etc.).  The correct time to call
kill_anon_super() is in the autofs_kill_sb() callback, which is called by
deactivate_super() at proper time, when the superblock is ready to be
killed.

I can see the same faulty codepath also in autofs4.  This patch solves
issues in both filesystems in a same way - it postpones the
kill_anon_super() until the proper time is signalized by deactivate_super()
calling the kill_sb() callback.

126039256c [PATCH] jbd2: wait for already submitted t_sync_datalist buffer to complete
In the current jbd code, if a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is dirty and not
locked, the buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list, submitted to the IO and
waited for IO completion.

But the fsstress test showed the case that when a buffer was already
submitted to the IO just before the buffer_dirty(bh) check, the buffer was
not waited for IO completion.

Following patch solves this problem.  If it is assumed that a buffer is
submitted to the IO before the buffer_dirty(bh) check and still being
written to disk, this buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list.

b3423415fb [PATCH] dcache: avoid RCU for never-hashed dentries
Some dentries don't need to be globally visible in dentry hashtable.
(pipes & sockets)

Such dentries dont need to wait for a RCU grace period at delete time.
Being able to free them permits a better CPU cache use (hot cache)

This patch combined with (dont insert pipe dentries into dentry_hashtable)
reduced time of { pipe(p); close(p[0]); close(p[1]);} on my UP machine (1.6
GHz Pentium-M) from 3.23 us to 2.86 us (But this patch does not depend on

d18de5a272 [PATCH] don't insert pipe dentries into dentry_hashtable.
We currently insert pipe dentries into the global dentry hashtable.  This
is suboptimal because there is currently no way these entries can be used
for a lookup().  (/proc/xxx/fd/xxx uses a different mechanism).  Inserting
them in dentry hashtable slows dcache lookups.

To let __dpath() still work correctly (ie not adding a " (deleted)") after
dentry name, we do :

 - Right after d_alloc(), pretend they are hashed by clearing the
   DCACHE_UNHASHED bit.

 - Call d_instantiate() instead of d_add() : dentry is not inserted in
   hash table.

__dpath() & friends work as intended during dentry lifetime.

 - At dismantle time, once dput() must clear the dentry, setting again
   DCACHE_UNHASHED bit inside the custom d_delete() function provided by
   pipe code, so that dput() can just kill_it.

This patch, combined with (avoid RCU for never hashed dentries) reduced
time of { pipe(p); close(p[0]); close(p[1]);} on my UP machine (1.6GHz
Pentium-M) from 3.23 us to 2.86 us (But this patch does not depend on other
patches, only bench results)

8bb0269160 [PATCH] corrupted cramfs filesystems cause kernel oops
Steve Grubb's fzfuzzer tool (http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/
fsfuzzer-0.6.tar.gz) generates corrupt Cramfs filesystems which cause
Cramfs to kernel oops in cramfs_uncompress_block().  The cause of the oops
is an unchecked corrupted block length field read by cramfs_readpage().

This patch adds a sanity check to cramfs_readpage() which checks that the
block length field is sensible.  The (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << 1) size check is
intentional, even though the uncompressed data is not going to be larger
than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, gzip sometimes generates compressed data larger than
the original source data.  Mkcramfs checks that the compressed size is
always less than or equal to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << 1.  Of course Cramfs could
use the original uncompressed data in this case, but it doesn't.

e6c4021190 [PATCH] handle ext4 directory corruption better
I've been using Steve Grubb's purely evil "fsfuzzer" tool, at
http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/fsfuzzer-0.4.tar.gz

Basically it makes a filesystem, splats some random bits over it, then
tries to mount it and do some simple filesystem actions.

At best, the filesystem catches the corruption gracefully.  At worst,
things spin out of control.

As you might guess, we found a couple places in ext4 where things spin out
of control :)

First, we had a corrupted directory that was never checked for
consistency...  it was corrupt, and pointed to another bad "entry" of
length 0.  The for() loop looped forever, since the length of
ext4_next_entry(de) was 0, and we kept looking at the same pointer over and
over and over and over...  I modeled this check and subsequent action on
what is done for other directory types in ext4_readdir...

(adding this check adds some computational expense; I am testing a followup
patch to reduce the number of times we check and re-check these directory
entries, in all cases.  Thanks for the idea, Andreas).

Next we had a root directory inode which had a corrupted size, claimed to
be > 200M on a 4M filesystem.  There was only really 1 block in the
directory, but because the size was so large, readdir kept coming back for
more, spewing thousands of printk's along the way.

Per Andreas' suggestion, if we're in this read error condition and we're
trying to read an offset which is greater than i_blocks worth of bytes,
stop trying, and break out of the loop.

With these two changes fsfuzz test survives quite well on ext4.

87b4126f10 [PATCH] fix reiserfs bad path release panic
One of our test team hit a reiserfs_panic while running fsstress tests on
2.6.19-rc1.  The message looks like :

  REISERFS: panic(device Null superblock):
  reiserfs[5676]: assertion !(p->path_length != 1 ) failed at
  fs/reiserfs/stree.c:397:reiserfs_check_path: path not properly relsed.

The backtrace looked :

	.vfs_write+0xd0/0x1b4
	.sys_write+0x4c/0x8c
	syscall_exit+0x0/0x4

Upon debugging I found that the restart_transaction was not releasing
the path if the th->refcount was > 1.

/*static*/
int restart_transaction(struct reiserfs_transaction_handle *th,
                           			struct inode *inode, struct path *path)
{
	[...]

         /* we cannot restart while nested */
         if (th->t_refcount > 1) { <<- Path is not released in this case!
                 return 0;
         }

         pathrelse(path); <<- Path released here.
	[...]

This could happen in such a situation :

In reiserfs/inode.c: reiserfs_get_block() ::

      if (repeat == NO_DISK_SPACE || repeat == QUOTA_EXCEEDED) {
          /* restart the transaction to give the journal a chance to free
           ** some blocks.  releases the path, so we have to go back to
           ** research if we succeed on the second try
           */
          SB_JOURNAL(inode->i_sb)->j_next_async_flush = 1;

        -->>  retval = restart_transaction(th, inode, &path); <<--

  We are supposed to release the path, no matter we succeed or fail. But
if the th->refcount is > 1, the path is still valid. And,

          if (retval)
                   goto failure;
          repeat =
              _allocate_block(th, block, inode,
                             &allocated_block_nr, NULL, create);

If the above allocate_block fails with NO_DISK_SPACE or QUOTA_EXCEEDED,
we would have path which is not released.

         if (repeat != NO_DISK_SPACE && repeat != QUOTA_EXCEEDED) {
                   goto research;
         }
         if (repeat == QUOTA_EXCEEDED)
                   retval = -EDQUOT;
         else
                   retval = -ENOSPC;
         goto failure;
	[...]

       failure:
	[...]
         reiserfs_check_path(&path); << Panics here !

Attached here is a patch which could fix the issue.

fix reiserfs/inode.c : restart_transaction() to release the path in all
cases.

The restart_transaction() doesn't release the path when the the journal
handle has a refcount > 1.  This would trigger a reiserfs_panic() if we
encounter an -ENOSPC / -EDQUOT in reiserfs_get_block().

free_fdtable_rc() schedules timer to reschedule fddef->wq if
schedule_work() on it returns 0.  However, schedule_work() guarantees that
the target work is executed at least once after the scheduling regardless
of its return value.  0 return simply means that the work was already
pending and thus no further action was required.

Another problem is that it used contant '5' as @expires argument to
mod_timer().

d6392f873f [PATCH] fuse: add support for block device based filesystems
I never intended this, but people started using fuse to implement block device
based "real" filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs).

The following four patches add better support for these kinds of filesystems.
Unlike "normal" fuse filesystems, using this feature should require superuser
privileges (enforced by the fusermount utility).

Thanks to Szabolcs Szakacsits for the input and testing.

This patch adds a 'fuseblk' filesystem type, which is only different from the
'fuse' filesystem type in how the 'dev_name' mount argument is interpreted.

So this patch lets check_partition() continue probing untill it hits a
success while recording the I/O error which might have been reported by the
checking routines.

Also, it does some cleanup of the partition methods for ibm, atari and
amiga to return -1 upon hitting an I/O error.

5127d002f9 [PATCH] fix rescan_partitions to return errors properly
The current rescan_partition implementation ignores the errors that comes from
the lower layer.  It reports success for unknown partitions as well as I/O
error cases while reading the partition information.

The unknown partition is not (and will not be) considered as an error in the
kernel, since there are legal users of it (e.g, members of a RAID5 MD Device
or a new disk which is not partitioned at all ).  Changing this behaviour
would scare the user about a serious problem with their disk and is not
recommended.  Thus for both "unknown partitions" to the Linux (eg., DEC
VMS,Novell Netware) and the legal users of NULL partition, would still be
reported as "SUCCESS".

The patch attached here, scares the user about something which he does need to
worry about.  i.e, returning -EIO on disk I/O errors while reading the
partition information.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	#!/bin/sh
	#
	# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
	#

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
		quilt add $file
		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file
		quilt refresh
	done

The script was run like this

	sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

8fb4fc68ca [PATCH] Allow user processes to raise their oom_adj value
Currently a user process cannot rise its own oom_adj value (i.e.
unprotecting itself from the OOM killer).  As this value is stored in the
task structure it gets inherited and the unprivileged childs will be unable
to rise it.

The EPERM will be handled by the generic proc fs layer, as only processes
with the proper caps or the owner of the process will be able to write to
the file.  So we allow only the processes with CAP_SYS_RESOURCE to lower
the value, otherwise it will get an EACCES which seems more appropriate
than EPERM.

822191a2fa [PATCH] skip data conversion in compat_sys_mount when data_page is NULL
OpenVZ Linux kernel team has found a problem with mounting in compat mode.

Simple command "mount -t smbfs ..." on Fedora Core 5 distro in 32-bit mode
leads to oops:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 RIP: compat_sys_mount+0xd6/0x290
  Process mount (pid: 14656, veid=300, threadinfo ffff810034d30000, task ffff810034c86bc0)
  Call Trace: ia32_sysret+0x0/0xa

The problem is that data_page pointer can be NULL, so we should skip data
conversion in this case.

When 0 is passed into nodeid2nodeinfo the function does not try to allocate a
new structure at all. it's an indication that the caller only wants the nodeinfo
struct for that nodeid if there actually is one in existance.
I've tidied the function itself so it's more obvious, (and tidier!)

Not. it's only ever called at DLM shutdown after all the other threads

It's just an optimisation to allow the caller to schedule if there is no work
to do. if something arrives immediately afterwards then it will get picked up
when the process re-awakes (and it will be woken by that arrival).

The 'accepting' atomic has gone completely. as Andrew pointed out it didn't
really achieve much anyway. I suspect it was a plaster over some other
startup or shutdown bug to be honest.

This is a bit better than the previous version of gfs2_fsync()
although it would be better still if we were able to call a
function which only wrote the inode & metadata. Its no big deal
though that this will potentially write the data as well since
the VFS has already done that before calling gfs2_fsync(). I've
also added a comment to explain whats going on here.

0b67130149 NFS: Fix asynchronous read error handling
We must always call ->read_done() before we truncate the page data, or
decide to flag an error. The reasons are that
	in NFSv2, ->read_done() is where the eof flag gets set.
	in NFSv3/v4 ->read_done() handles EJUKEBOX-type errors, and
		  v4 state recovery.

However, we need to mark the pages as uptodate before we deal with short
read errors, since we may need to modify the nfs_read_data arguments.

We therefore split the current nfs_readpage_result() into two parts:
nfs_readpage_result(), which calls ->read_done() etc, and
nfs_readpage_retry(), which subsequently handles short reads.

Note: Removing the code that retries in case of a short read also fixes a
bug in nfs_direct_read_result(), which used to return a corrupted number of
bytes.
