OK, I'm having a look here; its all new to me so bear with me.
blkdev_open() calls
do_open(bdev, ...,BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) and takes
mutex_lock_nested(&bdev->bd_mutex, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL)
then something fails, and we're thrown to:
out_first: where
if (bdev != bdev->bd_contains)
blkdev_put(bdev->bd_contains) which is
__blkdev_put(bdev->bd_contains, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) which does
mutex_lock_nested(&bdev->bd_contains->bd_mutex, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) <--- lockdep trigger
When going to out_first, dbev->bd_contains is either bdev or whole, and
since we take the branch it must be whole. So it seems to me the
following patch would be the right one:

Check the bounds of length specifiers more thoroughly in the XDR decoding of

Currently, if the server returns a bitmap or attr length that causes the
current decode point pointer to wrap, this could go undetected (consider a
small "negative" length on a 32-bit machine).
Also add a check into the main XDR decode handler to make sure that the amount

sure that we can do u32* pointer subtraction in the NFS client without risking
an undefined result (the result is undefined if the pointers are not correctly

I'm trying to speeding up mkdir(2) for network file systems. A typical
mkdir(2) calls two inode_operations: lookup and mkdir. The lookup
operation would fail with ENOENT in common case. I think it is unnecessary
because the subsequent mkdir operation can check it. In case of creat(2),
lookup operation is called with the LOOKUP_CREATE flag, so individual
filesystem can omit real lookup. e.g. nfs_lookup().
Here is a sample patch which uses LOOKUP_CREATE and O_EXCL on mkdir,
symlink and mknod. This uses the gadget for creat(2).
And here is the result of a benchmark on NFSv3.

We recently fixed an out-of-space deadlock in XFS, and part of that fix
involved the addition of the XFS_ALLOC_FLAG_FREEING flag to some of the
space allocator calls to indicate they're freeing space, not allocating
it. There was a missed xfs_alloc_fix_freelist condition test that did not
correctly test "flags". The same test would also test an uninitialised
structure field (args->userdata) and depending on its value either would
or would not return early with a critical buffer pointer set to NULL.
This fixes that up, adds asserts to several places to catch future botches
of this nature, and skips sections of xfs_alloc_fix_freelist that are
irrelevent for the space-freeing case.

I saw an oops down this path when trying to create a new file on a UDF
filesystem which was internally marked as readonly, but mounted rw:
udf_create
udf_new_inode
new_inode
alloc_inode
udf_alloc_inode
udf_new_block
returns EIO due to readonlyness
iput (on error)
udf_put_inode
udf_discard_prealloc
udf_next_aext
udf_current_aext
udf_get_fileshortad
OOPS
the udf_discard_prealloc() path was examining uninitialized fields of the
udf inode.
udf_discard_prealloc() already has this code to short-circuit the discard
path if no extents are preallocated:
if (UDF_I_ALLOCTYPE(inode) == ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB ||
inode->i_size == UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode))
{
return;
}
so if we initialize UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode) = 0 earlier in udf_new_inode,
we won't try to free the (not) preallocated blocks, since this will match
the i_size = 0 set when the inode was initialized.

In bugzilla #6941, Jens Kilian reported:
"The function befs_utf2nls (in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c) writes a 0 byte past the
end of a block of memory allocated via kmalloc(), leading to memory
corruption. This happens only for filenames which are pure ASCII and a
multiple of 4 bytes in length. [...]
Without DEBUG_SLAB, this leads to further corruption and hard lockups; I
believe this is the bug which has made kernels later than 2.6.8 unusable
for me. (This must be due to changes in memory management, the bug has
been in the BeFS driver since the time it was introduced (AFAICT).)
Steps to reproduce:
Create a directory (in BeOS, naturally :-) with files named, e.g.,
"1", "22", "333", "4444", ... Mount it in Linux and do an "ls" or "find""

It is entirely possible (though rare) that jiffies half-wraps around, while a
dentry/inode remains in the cache. This could mean that the dentry/inode is
not invalidated for another half wraparound-time.
To get around this problem, use 64-bit jiffies. The only problem with this is
that dentry->d_time is 32 bits on 32-bit archs. So use d_fsdata as the high
32 bits. This is an ugly hack, but far simpler, than having to allocate
private data just for this purpose.
Since 64-bit jiffies can be assumed never to wrap around, simple comparison
can be used, and a zero time value can represent "invalid".

creating and jumping to a new label fail_notlocked rather than the fail
label used after calling lock_kernel().

coda_file_info struct, but left an unlock_kernel() in the allocation
failure error path; remove it.

This is a real deadlock, a nice complex one:
(warning: long explanation follows so that Andrew can have a complete
patch description)
it's an ABCDA deadlock:
A iprune_mutex
B inode->inotify_mutex
C ih->mutex
D dev->ev_mutex
The AB relationship comes straight from invalidate_inodes()
int invalidate_inodes(struct super_block * sb)
{
int busy;
LIST_HEAD(throw_away);
mutex_lock(&iprune_mutex);
spin_lock(&inode_lock);
inotify_unmount_inodes(&sb->s_inodes);
where inotify_umount_inodes() takes the
mutex_lock(&inode->inotify_mutex);
The BC relationship comes directly from inotify_find_update_watch():
s32 inotify_find_update_watch(struct inotify_handle *ih, struct inode *inode,
u32 mask)
{
...
mutex_lock(&inode->inotify_mutex);
mutex_lock(&ih->mutex);
The CD relationship comes from inotify_rm_wd:
inotify_rm_wd does
mutex_lock(&inode->inotify_mutex);
mutex_lock(&ih->mutex)
and then calls inotify_remove_watch_locked() which calls
notify_dev_queue_event() which does
mutex_lock(&dev->ev_mutex);
(this strictly is a BCD relationship)
The DA relationship comes from the most interesting part:
[<ffffffff8022d9f2>] shrink_icache_memory+0x42/0x270
[<ffffffff80240dc4>] shrink_slab+0x11d/0x1c9
[<ffffffff802b5104>] try_to_free_pages+0x187/0x244
[<ffffffff8020efed>] __alloc_pages+0x1cd/0x2e0
[<ffffffff8025e1f8>] cache_alloc_refill+0x3f8/0x821
[<ffffffff8020a5e5>] kmem_cache_alloc+0x85/0xcb
[<ffffffff802db027>] kernel_event+0x2e/0x122
[<ffffffff8021d61c>] inotify_dev_queue_event+0xcc/0x140
inotify_dev_queue_event schedules a kernel_event which does a
kmem_cache_alloc( , GFP_KERNEL) which may try to shrink slabs, including
the inode cache .. which then takes iprune_mutex.
And voila, there is an AB, a BC, a CD relationship (even a direct BCD),
and also now a DA relationship -> a circular type AB-BA deadlock but
involving 4 locks.
The solution is simple: kernel_event() is NOT allowed to use GFP_KERNEL,
but must use GFP_NOFS to not cause recursion into the VFS.

A recent commit (7fc90ec93a) moved the
call to nfsd_setuser out of the 'find a dentry for a filehandle' branch
of fh_verify so that it would always be called.
This had the unfortunately side-effect of moving *after* the call to
decode_fh, so the prober fsuid was not set when nfsd_acceptable was called,
the 'permission' check did the wrong thing.
This patch moves the nfsd_setuser call back where it was, and add as call
in the other branch of the if.

The inode number out of an NFS file handle gets passed eventually to
ext3_get_inode_block() without any checking. If ext3_get_inode_block()
allows it to trigger an error, then bad filehandles can have unpleasant
effect - ext3_error() will usually cause a forced read-only remount, or a
panic if `errors=panic' was used.
So remove the call to ext3_error there and put a matching check in
ext3/namei.c where inode numbers are read off storage.

This just turns off chmod() on the /proc/<pid>/ files, since there is no
good reason to allow it, and had we disallowed it originally, the nasty
/proc race exploit wouldn't have been possible.
The other patches already fixed the problem chmod() could cause, so this
is really just some final mop-up..
This particular version is based off a patch by Eugene and Marcel which
had much better naming than my original equivalent one.

On systems with block devices containing a slash (virtual dasd, cciss,
etc), reiserfs will fail to initialize /proc/fs/reiserfs/<dev> due to it
being interpreted as a subdirectory. The generic block device code changes
the / to ! for use in the sysfs tree. This patch uses that convention.
Tested by making dm devices use dm/<number> rather than dm-<number>

2.6.16 leaks like hell. While testing, I found massive leakage
(reproduced in openvz) in:
*filp
*size-4096
And 1 object leaks in
*size-32
*size-64
*size-128
It is the fix for the first one. filp leaks in the bowels of namei.c.
Seems, size-4096 is file table leaking in expand_fdtables.
I have no idea what are the rest and why they show only accompanying
another leaks. Some debugging structs?

sysfs has a different i_mutex lock order behavior for i_mutex than the
other filesystems; sysfs i_mutex is called in many places with subsystem
locks held. At the same time, many of the VFS locking rules do not apply
to sysfs at all (cross directory rename for example). To untangle this
mess (which gives false positives in lockdep), we're giving sysfs inodes
their own class for i_mutex.

Further changes:
(*) Drop the casts to long for addresses in kdebug() statements (they're
unsigned long already).
(*) Use extra variables to avoid expressions longer than 80 chars by splitting
the statement into multiple statements and letting the compiler optimise
them back together.
(*) Eliminate duplicate call of ksize() when working out how much space was
actually allocated for the stack.
(*) Discard the commented-out load_shlib prototype and op pointer as this will
