Eric Sesterhenn 50682bb4de bfs: check that filesystem fits on the blockdevice
Since all sanity checks rely on the validity of s_start which gets only
checked to be smaller than s_end, we should also check if s_end is sane.
Now we also try to retrieve the last block of the filesystem, which is
computed by s_end.  If this fails, something is bogus.

Eric Sesterhenn e1f89ec95b bfs: add some basic sanity checks
bfs_fill_super() already touches all inodes, so we can easily add some
cheap sanity checks and check if the inode start and end blocks are
smaller than the maximum number of blocks, the inode start block lies
behind the end block or the file end offset is behind the end of the
filesystem.  Also check if the start of data offset in the super block
fits the filesystem.

The added sanity checks catch softlockup issues early when we try to
sb_bread() lots of blocks in a loop in bfs_readdir() and bfs_find_entry().
 In addition an oom issue in bfs_fill_super() is prevented by this when
s_start is corrupted, which influences imap_len and we try to allocate a
huge info->si_imap.

Ian Kent a92daf6ba1 autofs4: make autofs type usage explicit
- the type assigned at mount when no type is given is changed
  from 0 to AUTOFS_TYPE_INDIRECT. This was done because 0 and
  AUTOFS_TYPE_INDIRECT were being treated implicitly as the same
  type.

- previously, an offset mount had it's type set to
  AUTOFS_TYPE_DIRECT|AUTOFS_TYPE_OFFSET but the mount control
  re-implementation needs to be able distinguish all three types.
  So this was changed to make the type setting explicit.

- a type AUTOFS_TYPE_ANY was added for use by the re-implementation
  when checking if a given path is a mountpoint. It's not really a
  type as we use this to ask if a given path is a mountpoint in the
  autofs_dev_ioctl_ismountpoint() function.

- functions to set and test the autofs mount types have been added to
  improve readability and make the type usage explicit.

- the mount type is used from user space for the mount control
  re-implementtion so, for consistency, all the definitions have
  been moved to the user space include file include/linux/auto_fs4.h.

Michael Halcrow 87c94c4df0 eCryptfs: Filename Encryption: mount option
Enable mount-wide filename encryption by providing the Filename Encryption
Key (FNEK) signature as a mount option.  Note that the ecryptfs-utils
userspace package versions 61 or later support this option.

When mounting with ecryptfs-utils version 61 or later, the mount helper
will detect the availability of the passphrase-based filename encryption
in the kernel (via the eCryptfs sysfs handle) and query the user
interactively as to whether or not he wants to enable the feature for the
mount.  If the user enables filename encryption, the mount helper will
then prompt for the FNEK signature that the user wishes to use, suggesting
by default the signature for the mount passphrase that the user has
already entered for encrypting the file contents.

When not using the mount helper, the user can specify the signature for
the passphrase key with the ecryptfs_fnek_sig= mount option.  This key
must be available in the user's keyring.  The mount helper usually takes
care of this step.  If, however, the user is not mounting with the mount
helper, then he will need to enter the passphrase key into his keyring
with some other utility prior to mounting, such as ecryptfs-manager.

Michael Halcrow 9c79f34f7e eCryptfs: Filename Encryption: Tag 70 packets
This patchset implements filename encryption via a passphrase-derived
mount-wide Filename Encryption Key (FNEK) specified as a mount parameter.
Each encrypted filename has a fixed prefix indicating that eCryptfs should
try to decrypt the filename.  When eCryptfs encounters this prefix, it
decodes the filename into a tag 70 packet and then decrypts the packet
contents using the FNEK, setting the filename to the decrypted filename.
Both unencrypted and encrypted filenames can reside in the same lower
filesystem.

Because filename encryption expands the length of the filename during the
encoding stage, eCryptfs will not properly handle filenames that are
already near the maximum filename length.

In the present implementation, eCryptfs must be able to produce a match
against the lower encrypted and encoded filename representation when given
a plaintext filename.  Therefore, two files having the same plaintext name
will encrypt and encode into the same lower filename if they are both
encrypted using the same FNEK.  This can be changed by finding a way to
replace the prepended bytes in the blocked-aligned filename with random
characters; they are hashes of the FNEK right now, so that it is possible
to deterministically map from a plaintext filename to an encrypted and
encoded filename in the lower filesystem.  An implementation using random
characters will have to decode and decrypt every single directory entry in
any given directory any time an event occurs wherein the VFS needs to
determine whether a particular file exists in the lower directory and the
decrypted and decoded filenames have not yet been extracted for that
directory.

Thanks to Tyler Hicks and David Kleikamp for assistance in the development
of this patchset.

This patch:

A tag 70 packet contains a filename encrypted with a Filename Encryption
Key (FNEK).  This patch implements functions for writing and parsing tag
70 packets.  This patch also adds definitions and extends structures to
support filename encryption.

Eric Dumazet 179f7ebff6 percpu_counter: FBC_BATCH should be a variable
For NR_CPUS >= 16 values, FBC_BATCH is 2*NR_CPUS

Considering more and more distros are using high NR_CPUS values, it makes
sense to use a more sensible value for FBC_BATCH, and get rid of NR_CPUS.

A sensible value is 2*num_online_cpus(), with a minimum value of 32 (This
minimum value helps branch prediction in __percpu_counter_add())

We already have a hotcpu notifier, so we can adjust FBC_BATCH dynamically.

We rename FBC_BATCH to percpu_counter_batch since its not a constant
anymore.

Tejun Heo 5f820f648c poll: allow f_op->poll to sleep
f_op->poll is the only vfs operation which is not allowed to sleep.  It's
because poll and select implementation used task state to synchronize
against wake ups, which doesn't have to be the case anymore as wait/wake
interface can now use custom wake up functions.  The non-sleep restriction
can be a bit tricky because ->poll is not called from an atomic context
and the result of accidentally sleeping in ->poll only shows up as
temporary busy looping when the timing is right or rather wrong.

This patch converts poll/select to use custom wake up function and use
separate triggered variable to synchronize against wake up events.  The
only added overhead is an extra function call during wake up and
negligible.

This patch removes the one non-sleep exception from vfs locking rules and
is beneficial to userland filesystem implementations like FUSE, 9p or
peculiar fs like spufs as it's very difficult for those to implement
non-sleeping poll method.

While at it, make the following cosmetic changes to make poll.h and
select.c checkpatch friendly.

* s/type * symbol/type *symbol/		   : three places in poll.h
* remove blank line before EXPORT_SYMBOL() : two places in select.c

Davide: spotted missing write barrier in pollwake()

Nick Piggin 856bf4d717 fs: sys_sync fix
s_syncing livelock avoidance was breaking data integrity guarantee of
sys_sync, by allowing sys_sync to skip writing or waiting for superblocks
if there is a concurrent sys_sync happening.

This livelock avoidance is much less important now that we don't have the
get_super_to_sync() call after every sb that we sync.  This was replaced
by __put_super_and_need_restart.

Nick Piggin 4f5a99d64c fs: remove WB_SYNC_HOLD
Remove WB_SYNC_HOLD.  The primary motiviation is the design of my
anti-starvation code for fsync.  It requires taking an inode lock over the
sync operation, so we could run into lock ordering problems with multiple
inodes.  It is possible to take a single global lock to solve the ordering
problem, but then that would prevent a future nice implementation of "sync
multiple inodes" based on lock order via inode address.

Seems like a backward step to remove this, but actually it is busted
anyway: we can't use the inode lists for data integrity wait: an inode can
be taken off the dirty lists but still be under writeback.  In order to
satisfy data integrity semantics, we should wait for it to finish
writeback, but if we only search the dirty lists, we'll miss it.

It would be possible to have a "writeback" list, for sys_sync, I suppose.
But why complicate things by prematurely optimise?  For unmounting, we
could avoid the "livelock avoidance" code, which would be easier, but
again premature IMO.

Fixing the existing data integrity problem will come next.

Artem Bityutskiy e8ea175913 UBIFS: do not use WB_SYNC_HOLD
WB_SYNC_HOLD is going to be zapped so we should not use it. Use
%WB_SYNC_NONE instead. Here is what akpm said:

"I think I'll just switch that to WB_SYNC_NONE.  The `wait==0' mode is
just an advisory thing to help the fs shove lots of data into the
queues.  If some gets missed then it'll be picked up on the second
->sync_fs call, with wait==1."

Thanks to Randy Dunlap for catching this.

Dmitri Monakhov 0f64415d42 fs: truncate blocks outside i_size after O_DIRECT write error
In case of error extending write may have instantiated a few blocks
outside i_size.  We need to trim these blocks.  We have to do it
*regardless* to blocksize.  At least ext2, ext3 and reiserfs interpret
(i_size < biggest block) condition as error.  Fsck will complain about
wrong i_size.  Then fsck will fix the error by changing i_size according
to the biggest block.  This is bad because this blocks contain garbage
from previous write attempt.  And result in data corruption.

GFP_HIGHUSER_PAGECACHE is just an alias for GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE, making
that harder to track down: remove it, and its out-of-work brothers
GFP_NOFS_PAGECACHE and GFP_USER_PAGECACHE.

Since we're making that improvement to hotremove_migrate_alloc(), I think
we can now also remove one of the "o"s from its comment.

Miquel van Smoorenburg 38c8e61809 do_mpage_readpage(): don't submit lots of small bios on boundary
While tracing I/O patterns with blktrace (a great tool) a few weeks ago I
identified a minor issue in fs/mpage.c

As the comment above mpage_readpages() says, a fs's get_block function
will set BH_Boundary when it maps a block just before a block for which
extra I/O is required.

Since get_block() can map a range of pages, for all these pages the
BH_Boundary flag will be set.  But we only need to push what I/O we have
accumulated at the last block of this range.

This makes do_mpage_readpage() send out the largest possible bio instead
of a bunch of page-sized ones in the BH_Boundary case.

Mel Gorman 3340289ddf mm: report the MMU pagesize in /proc/pid/smaps
The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the
kernel to back a VMA.  This matches the size used by the MMU in the
majority of cases.  However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels
whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for
the MMU on older processor.  To distinguish, this patch reports
MMUPageSize as the pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.

Mel Gorman 08fba69986 mm: report the pagesize backing a VMA in /proc/pid/smaps
It is useful to verify a hugepage-aware application is using the expected
pagesizes for its memory regions. This patch creates an entry called
KernelPageSize in /proc/pid/smaps that is the size of page used by the
kernel to back a VMA. The entry is not called PageSize as it is possible
the MMU uses a different size. This extension should not break any sensible
parser that skips lines containing unrecognised information.

Michael Kerrisk 4ae8978cf9 inotify: fix type errors in interfaces
The problems lie in the types used for some inotify interfaces, both at the kernel level and at the glibc level. This mail addresses the kernel problem. I will follow up with some suggestions for glibc changes.

For the sys_inotify_rm_watch() interface, the type of the 'wd' argument is
currently 'u32', it should be '__s32' .  That is Robert's suggestion, and
is consistent with the other declarations of watch descriptors in the
kernel source, in particular, the inotify_event structure in
include/linux/inotify.h:

struct inotify_event {
        __s32           wd;             /* watch descriptor */
        __u32           mask;           /* watch mask */
        __u32           cookie;         /* cookie to synchronize two events */
        __u32           len;            /* length (including nulls) of name */
        char            name[0];        /* stub for possible name */
};

The patch makes the changes needed for inotify_rm_watch().
