Steven Whitehouse a447c09324 vfs: Use const for kernel parser table
This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser
tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in
all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst
exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble.

This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm
since then.

Miklos Szeredi 33670fa296 fuse: nfs export special lookups
Implement the get_parent export operation by sending a LOOKUP request with
".." as the name.

Implement looking up an inode by node ID after it has been evicted from
the cache.  This is done by seding a LOOKUP request with "." as the name
(for all file types, not just directories).

The filesystem can set the FUSE_EXPORT_SUPPORT flag in the INIT reply, to
indicate that it supports these special lookups.

Thanks to John Muir for the original implementation of this feature.

Miklos Szeredi dbd561d236 fuse: add export operations
Implement export_operations, to allow fuse filesystems to be exported to
NFS.  This feature has been in the out-of-tree fuse module, and is widely
used and tested.

It has not been originally merged into mainline, because doing the NFS
export in userspace was thought to be a cleaner and more efficient way of
doing it, than through the kernel.

While that is true, it would also have involved a lot of duplicated effort
at reimplementing NFS exporting (all the different versions of the
protocol).  This effort was unfortunately not undertaken by anyone, so we
are left with doing it the easy but less efficient way.

If this feature goes in, the out-of-tree fuse module can go away,
which would have several advantages:

  - not having to maintain two versions
  - less confusion for users
  - no bugs due to kernel API changes

Comment from hch:
 - Use the same fh_type values as XFS, since we use the same fh encoding.

Miklos Szeredi 03fb0bce01 fuse: fix bdi naming conflict
Fuse allocates a separate bdi for each filesystem, and registers them
in sysfs with "MAJOR:MINOR" of sb->s_dev (st_dev).  This works fine for
anon devices normally used by fuse, but can conflict with an already
registered BDI for "fuseblk" filesystems, where sb->s_dev represents a
real block device.  In particularl this happens if a non-partitioned
device is being mounted.

Fix by registering with a different name for "fuseblk" filesystems.

Miklos Szeredi 78bb6cb9a8 fuse: add flag to turn on big writes
Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests.  In theory all
fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's
nothing in the API to prevent it.  Unfortunately there's a known case in
NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption.  There could also be
other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would
result in bugs.

To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default,
but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

Miklos Szeredi 3be5a52b30 fuse: support writable mmap
Quoting Linus (3 years ago, FUSE inclusion discussions):

  "User-space filesystems are hard to get right. I'd claim that they
   are almost impossible, unless you limit them somehow (shared
   writable mappings are the nastiest part - if you don't have those,
   you can reasonably limit your problems by limiting the number of
   dirty pages you accept through normal "write()" calls)."

Instead of attempting the impossible, I've just waited for the dirty page
accounting infrastructure to materialize (thanks to Peter Zijlstra and
others).  This nicely solved the biggest problem: limiting the number of pages
used for write caching.

Some small details remained, however, which this largish patch attempts to
address.  It provides a page writeback implementation for fuse, which is
completely safe against VM related deadlocks.  Performance may not be very
good for certain usage patterns, but generally it should be acceptable.

It has been tested extensively with fsx-linux and bash-shared-mapping.

Fuse page writeback design
--------------------------

fuse_writepage() allocates a new temporary page with GFP_NOFS|__GFP_HIGHMEM.
It copies the contents of the original page, and queues a WRITE request to the
userspace filesystem using this temp page.

The writeback is finished instantly from the MM's point of view: the page is
removed from the radix trees, and the PageDirty and PageWriteback flags are
cleared.

For the duration of the actual write, the NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter is
incremented.  The per-bdi writeback count is not decremented until the actual
write completes.

On dirtying the page, fuse waits for a previous write to finish before
proceeding.  This makes sure, there can only be one temporary page used at a
time for one cached page.

This approach is wasteful in both memory and CPU bandwidth, so why is this
complication needed?

The basic problem is that there can be no guarantee about the time in which
the userspace filesystem will complete a write.  It may be buggy or even
malicious, and fail to complete WRITE requests.  We don't want unrelated parts
of the system to grind to a halt in such cases.

Also a filesystem may need additional resources (particularly memory) to
complete a WRITE request.  There's a great danger of a deadlock if that
allocation may wait for the writepage to finish.

Currently there are several cases where the kernel can block on page
writeback:

  - allocation order is larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER
  - page migration
  - throttle_vm_writeout (through NR_WRITEBACK)
  - sync(2)

Of course in some cases (fsync, msync) we explicitly want to allow blocking.
So for these cases new code has to be added to fuse, since the VM is not
tracking writeback pages for us any more.

As an extra safetly measure, the maximum dirty ratio allocated to a single
fuse filesystem is set to 1% by default.  This way one (or several) buggy or
malicious fuse filesystems cannot slow down the rest of the system by hogging
dirty memory.

With appropriate privileges, this limit can be raised through
'/sys/class/bdi/<bdi>/max_ratio'.

Miklos Szeredi d12def1bcb fuse: limit queued background requests
Libfuse basically creates a new thread for each new request.  This is fine for
synchronous requests, which are naturally limited.  However background
requests (especially writepage) can cause a thread creation storm.

To avoid this, limit the number of background requests available to userspace.

This is done by introducing another queue for background requests, and a
counter for the number of "active" requests, which are currently available for
userspace.

Miklos Szeredi 0e9663ee45 fuse: add blksize field to fuse_attr
There are cases when the filesystem will be passed the buffer from a single
read or write call, namely:

 1) in 'direct-io' mode (not O_DIRECT), read/write requests don't go
    through the page cache, but go directly to the userspace fs

 2) currently buffered writes are done with single page requests, but
    if Nick's ->perform_write() patch goes it, it will be possible to
    do larger write requests.  But only if the original write() was
    also bigger than a page.

In these cases the filesystem might want to give a hint to the app
about the optimal I/O size.

Allow the userspace filesystem to supply a blksize value to be returned by
stat() and friends.  If the field is zero, it defaults to the old
PAGE_CACHE_SIZE value.

Miklos Szeredi 1fb69e7817 fuse: fix race between getattr and write
Getattr and lookup operations can be running in parallel to attribute changing
operations, such as write and setattr.

This means, that if for example getattr was slower than a write, the cached
size attribute could be set to a stale value.

To prevent this race, introduce a per-filesystem attribute version counter.
This counter is incremented whenever cached attributes are modified, and the
incremented value stored in the inode.

Before storing new attributes in the cache, getattr and lookup check, using
the version number, whether the attributes have been modified during the
request's lifetime.  If so, the returned attributes are not cached, because
they might be stale.

Thanks to Jakub Bogusz for the bug report and test program.

Miklos Szeredi ebc14c4dbe fuse: fix permission checking on sticky directories
The VFS checks sticky bits on the parent directory even if the filesystem
defines it's own ->permission().  In some situations (sshfs, mountlo, etc) the
user does have permission to delete a file even if the attribute based
checking would not allow it.

So work around this by storing the permission bits separately and returning
them in stat(), but cutting the permission bits off from inode->i_mode.

This is slightly hackish, but it's probably not worth it to add new
infrastructure in VFS and a slight performance penalty for all filesystems,
just for the sake of fuse.

Paul Mundt 20c2df83d2 mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

Miklos Szeredi ead5f0b5fa fuse: delete inode on drop
When inode is dropped (no more references) delete it from cache.

There's not much point in keeping it cached, when a new lookup will refresh
the attributes anyway.

Alexey Dobriyan e8edc6e03a Detach sched.h from mm.h
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Miklos Szeredi 79c0b2df79 add filesystem subtype support
There's a slight problem with filesystem type representation in fuse
based filesystems.

From the kernel's view, there are just two filesystem types: fuse and
fuseblk.  From the user's view there are lots of different filesystem
types.  The user is not even much concerned if the filesystem is fuse based
or not.  So there's a conflict of interest in how this should be
represented in fstab, mtab and /proc/mounts.

The current scheme is to encode the real filesystem type in the mount
source.  So an sshfs mount looks like this:

  sshfs#user@server:/   /mnt/server    fuse   rw,nosuid,nodev,...

This url-ish syntax works OK for sshfs and similar filesystems.  However
for block device based filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs) it doesn't work, since
the kernel expects the mount source to be a real device name.

A possibly better scheme would be to encode the real type in the type
field as "type.subtype".  So fuse mounts would look like this:

  /dev/hda1       /mnt/windows   fuseblk.ntfs-3g   rw,...
  user@server:/   /mnt/server    fuse.sshfs        rw,nosuid,nodev,...

This patch adds the necessary code to the kernel so that this can be
correctly displayed in /proc/mounts.

Christoph Lameter 50953fe9e0 slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flag
I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL.  It is only supported by
SLAB.

I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again?  The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.

I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free.  That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.

Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on.  If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code.  But there is no such code
in the kernel.  I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e.  add debug code before kfree).

There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches.  Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.

This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support.  Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.

We need to work on cleaning up the relationship between kobjects, ksets and
ktypes.  The removal of 'struct subsystem' is the first step of this,
especially as it is not really needed at all.

Thanks to Kay for fixing the bugs in this patch.

Most fuse filesystems work fine without block device support, so I
think a better solution is to disable the 'fuseblk' filesystem type if
BLOCK=n.

Miklos Szeredi 0ec7ca41f6 [PATCH] fuse: add DESTROY operation
Add a DESTROY operation for block device based filesystems.  With the help of
this operation, such a filesystem can flush dirty data to the device
synchronously before the umount returns.

This is needed in situations where the filesystem is assumed to be clean
immediately after unmount (e.g.  ejecting removable media).
