Linus Torvalds f68e556e23 Make the "word-at-a-time" helper functions more commonly usable
I have a new optimized x86 "strncpy_from_user()" that will use these
same helper functions for all the same reasons the name lookup code uses
them.  This is preparation for that.

This moves them into an architecture-specific header file.  It's
architecture-specific for two reasons:

 - some of the functions are likely to want architecture-specific
   implementations.  Even if the current code happens to be "generic" in
   the sense that it should work on any little-endian machine, it's
   likely that the "multiply by a big constant and shift" implementation
   is less than optimal for an architecture that has a guaranteed fast
   bit count instruction, for example.

 - I expect that if architectures like sparc want to start playing
   around with this, we'll need to abstract out a few more details (in
   particular the actual unaligned accesses).  So we're likely to have
   more architecture-specific stuff if non-x86 architectures start using
   this.

   (and if it turns out that non-x86 architectures don't start using
   this, then having it in an architecture-specific header is still the
   right thing to do, of course)

 3) Compile warning, locking, and refcounting fixes in netfilter's

 4) phonet sendmsg needs to validate user length just like any other
    datagram protocol, fix from Sasha Levin.

 5) Ipv6 multicast code uses wrong loop index, from RongQing Li.

 6) Link handling and firmware fixes in bnx2x driver from Yaniv Rosner
    and Yuval Mintz.

 7) mlx4 erroneously allocates 4 pages at a time, regardless of page
    size, fix from Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo.

 8) SCTP socket option wasn't extended in a backwards compatible way,
    fix from Thomas Graf.

 9) Add missing address change event emissions to bonding, from Shlomo
    Pongratz.

10) /proc/net/dev regressed because it uses a private offset to track
    where we are in the hash table, but this doesn't track the offset
    pullback that the seq_file code does resulting in some entries being
    missed in large dumps.

    Fix from Eric Dumazet.

11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it
    invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't.  Let the natural sequence
    generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE
    settings, guide the tcp_push() calls.

    Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch
    effectively into GSO/TSO clusters.

    From Eric Dumazet.

12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a
    socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we
    cannot touch it after queueing it like that.

    Fixes from Eric Dumazet.

13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it
    immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer
    to transmit the PPP frame.

    But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the
    TX queue right before returning from the transmit method.

    Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in
    particular things like the equalizers.  Well behaved devices should
    only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case
    when it gets backlogged to the downstream device.

    David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until
    it's downstream can't take data any more.

14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver
    changes, re-add.  From Marc Kleine-Budde.

15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W. Multanen.

16) Descriptor writeback fixes in e1000e from Matthew Vick.

Eric Dumazet 35f9c09fe9 tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once
commit 2f53384424 (tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets) added
a regression for splice() calls using SPLICE_F_MORE.

We need to call tcp_flush() at the end of the last page processed in
tcp_sendpages(), or else transmits can be deferred and future sends
stall.

Add a new internal flag, MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST, acting like MSG_MORE, but
with different semantic.

For all sendpage() providers, its a transparent change. Only
sock_sendpage() and tcp_sendpages() can differentiate the two different
flags provided by pipe_to_sendpage()

Merge batch of fixes from Andrew Morton:
 "The simple_open() cleanup was held back while I wanted for laggards to

  I still need to send a few checkpoint/restore patches.  I've been
  wobbly about merging them because I'm wobbly about the overall

Stephen Boyd 234e340582 simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when
they want to support a custom read/write function op.  This leads to a
proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire
tree.

Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we
can replace all the users of this function with simple_open().

This replacement was done with the following semantic patch:

<smpl>
@ open @
identifier open_f != simple_open;
identifier i, f;
@@
-int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f)
-{
(
-if (i->i_private)
-f->private_data = i->i_private;
|
-f->private_data = i->i_private;
)
-return 0;
-}

@ has_open depends on open @
identifier fops;
identifier open.open_f;
@@
struct file_operations fops = {
...
-.open = open_f,
+.open = simple_open,
...
};

Hillf Danton 7563ec4c21 hugetlbfs: remove unregister_filesystem() when initializing module
It was introduced by d1d5e05ffd ("hugetlbfs: return error code when
initializing module") but as Al pointed out, is a bad idea.

Quoted comments from Al:
 "Note that unregister_filesystem() in module init is *always* wrong;
  it's not an issue here (it's done too early to care about and
  realistically the box is not going anywhere - it'll panic when attempt
  to exec /sbin/init fails, if not earlier), but it's a damn bad
  example.

  Consider a normal fs module.  Somebody loads it and in parallel with
  that we get a mount attempt on that fs type.  It comes between
  register and failure exits that causes unregister; at that point we
  are screwed since grabbing a reference to module as done by mount is
  enough to prevent exit, but not to prevent the failure of init.  As
  the result, module will get freed when init fails, mounted fs of that
  type be damned."

So remove it.

the attribute - it will work no matter how fragmented memory gets.  That
means we don't get incomplete backups occurring after days or months of
uptime and successful backups".

Vasiliy Kulikov 99663be772 proc: fix mount -t proc -o AAA
The proc_parse_options() call from proc_mount() runs only once at boot
time.  So on any later mount attempt, any mount options are ignored
because ->s_root is already initialized.

As a consequence, "mount -o <options>" will ignore the options.  The
only way to change mount options is "mount -o remount,<options>".

To fix this, parse the mount options unconditionally.

We can deadlock if we have a write oplock and two processes
use the same file handle. In this case the first process can't
unlock its lock if the second process blocked on the lock in the
same time.

Fix it by using posix_lock_file rather than posix_lock_file_wait
under cinode->lock_mutex. If we request a blocking lock and
posix_lock_file indicates that there is another lock that prevents
us, wait untill that lock is released and restart our call.

holding i_mutex all along.  IOW, we don't need to jump back to
l: - we know what path will be taken there and can do that (i.e.
d_alloc_and_lookup()) directly.

Al Viro 3f6c7c71a2 untangling do_lookup() - isolate !dentry stuff from the rest of it.
Duplicate the revalidation-related parts into if (!dentry) branch.
Next step will be to pull them under i_mutex.

This and the next 8 commits are more or less a splitup of patch
by Miklos; folks, when you are working with something that convoluted,
carve your patches up into easily reviewed steps, especially when
a lot of codepaths involved are rarely hit...

Oleg Nesterov 6308191f6f tracing, sched, vfs: Fix 'old_pid' usage in trace_sched_process_exec()
1. TRACE_EVENT(sched_process_exec) forgets to actually use the
   old pid argument, it sets ->old_pid = p->pid.

2. search_binary_handler() uses the wrong pid number. tracepoint
   needs the global pid_t from the root namespace, while old_pid
   is the virtual pid number as it seen by the tracer/parent.

With this patch we have two pid_t's in search_binary_handler(),
not really nice. Perhaps we should switch to "struct pid*", but
in this case it would be better to cleanup the current code
first and move the "depth == 0" code outside.

Fix up various trivial conflicts, largely due to changes in calling
conventions for things like dmaengine_prep_slave_sg() (new inline
wrapper to hide new parameter, clashing with rewrite of previously last
parameter that used to be an 'append' flag, and is now a bitmap of
'unsigned long flags').

(Also some header file fallout - like so many merges this merge window -
and silly conflicts with sparse fixes)

Linus Torvalds 9613bebb22 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs
Pull btrfs fixes and features from Chris Mason:
 "We've merged in the error handling patches from SuSE.  These are
  already shipping in the sles kernel, and they give btrfs the ability
  to abort transactions and go readonly on errors.  It involves a lot of
  churn as they clarify BUG_ONs, and remove the ones we now properly
  deal with.

  Josef reworked the way our metadata interacts with the page cache.
  page->private now points to the btrfs extent_buffer object, which
  makes everything faster.  He changed it so we write an whole extent
  buffer at a time instead of allowing individual pages to go down,,
  which will be important for the raid5/6 code (for the 3.5 merge
  window ;)

  Josef also made us more aggressive about dropping pages for metadata
  blocks that were freed due to COW.  Overall, our metadata caching is
  much faster now.

  We've integrated my patch for metadata bigger than the page size.
  This allows metadata blocks up to 64KB in size.  In practice 16K and
  32K seem to work best.  For workloads with lots of metadata, this cuts
  down the size of the extent allocation tree dramatically and fragments
  much less.

  Scrub was updated to support the larger block sizes, which ended up
  being a fairly large change (thanks Stefan Behrens).

  We also have an assortment of fixes and updates, especially to the
  balancing code (Ilya Dryomov), the back ref walker (Jan Schmidt) and
  the defragging code (Liu Bo)."

Fixed up trivial conflicts in fs/btrfs/scrub.c that were just due to
removal of the second argument to k[un]map_atomic() in commit
7ac687d9e0.

Linus Torvalds 6268b325c3 Revert "ext4: don't release page refs in ext4_end_bio()"
This reverts commit b43d17f319.

Dave Jones reports that it causes lockups on his laptop, and his debug
output showed a lot of processes hung waiting for page_writeback (or
more commonly - processes hung waiting for a lock that was held during
that writeback wait).

The page_writeback hint made Ted suggest that Dave look at this commit,
and Dave verified that reverting it makes his problems go away.

Ted says:
 "That commit fixes a race which is seen when you write into fallocated
  (and hence uninitialized) disk blocks under *very* heavy memory
  pressure.  Furthermore, although theoretically it could trigger under
  normal direct I/O writes, it only seems to trigger if you are issuing
  a huge number of AIO writes, such that a just-written page can get
  evicted from memory, and then read back into memory, before the
  workqueue has a chance to update the extent tree.

  This race has been around for a little over a year, and no one noticed
  until two months ago; it only happens under fairly exotic conditions,
  and in fact even after trying very hard to create a simple repro under
  lab conditions, we could only reproduce the problem and confirm the
  fix on production servers running MySQL on very fast PCIe-attached
  flash devices.

  Given that Dave was able to hit this problem pretty quickly, if we
  confirm that this commit is at fault, the only reasonable thing to do
  is to revert it IMO."

Linus Torvalds 71db34fc43 Merge branch 'for-3.4' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux
Pull nfsd changes from Bruce Fields:

Highlights:
 - Benny Halevy and Tigran Mkrtchyan implemented some more 4.1 features,
   moving us closer to a complete 4.1 implementation.
 - Bernd Schubert fixed a long-standing problem with readdir cookies on
   ext2/3/4.
 - Jeff Layton performed a long-overdue overhaul of the server reboot
   recovery code which will allow us to deprecate the current code (a
   rather unusual user of the vfs), and give us some needed flexibility
   for further improvements.
 - Like the client, we now support numeric uid's and gid's in the
   auth_sys case, allowing easier upgrades from NFSv2/v3 to v4.x.

Plus miscellaneous bugfixes and cleanup.

Thanks to everyone!

There are also some delegation fixes waiting on vfs review that I
suppose will have to wait for 3.5.  With that done I think we'll finally
turn off the "EXPERIMENTAL" dependency for v4 (though that's mostly
symbolic as it's been on by default in distro's for a while).

And the list of 4.1 todo's should be achievable for 3.5 as well:

   http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues

though we may still want a bit more experience with it before turning it
on by default.
