This patch modifies the interface to inode_getsecurity to have the function
return a buffer containing the security blob and its length via parameters
instead of relying on the calling function to give it an appropriately sized
buffer.
Security blobs obtained with this function should be freed using the
release_secctx LSM hook. This alleviates the problem of the caller having to
guess a length and preallocate a buffer for this function allowing it to be
used elsewhere for Labeled NFS.
The patch also removed the unused err parameter. The conversion is similar to
the one performed by Al Viro for the security_getprocattr hook.

After making dirty a 100M file, the normal behavior is to start the
writeback for all data after 30s delays. But sometimes the following
happens instead:
- after 30s: ~4M
- after 5s: ~4M
- after 5s: all remaining 92M
Some analyze shows that the internal io dispatch queues goes like this:
s_io s_more_io
-------------------------
1) 100M,1K 0
2) 1K 96M
3) 0 96M
1) initial state with a 100M file and a 1K file
2) 4M written, nr_to_write <= 0, so write more
3) 1K written, nr_to_write > 0, no more writes(BUG)
nr_to_write > 0 in (3) fools the upper layer to think that data have all
been written out. The big dirty file is actually still sitting in
s_more_io. We cannot simply splice s_more_io back to s_io as soon as s_io
becomes empty, and let the loop in generic_sync_sb_inodes() continue: this
may starve newly expired inodes in s_dirty. It is also not an option to
draw inodes from both s_more_io and s_dirty, an let the loop go on: this
might lead to live locks, and might also starve other superblocks in sync
time(well kupdate may still starve some superblocks, that's another bug).
We have to return when a full scan of s_io completes. So nr_to_write > 0
does not necessarily mean that "all data are written". This patch
introduces a flag writeback_control.more_io to indicate that more io should
be done. With it the big dirty file no longer has to wait for the next
kupdate invokation 5s later.
In sync_sb_inodes() we only set more_io on super_blocks we actually
visited. This avoids the interaction between two pdflush deamons.
Also in __sync_single_inode() we don't blindly keep requeuing the io if the
filesystem cannot progress. Failing to do so may lead to 100% iowait.

Since I_SYNC was split out from I_LOCK, the concern in commit
4b89eed93e ("Write back inode data pages
even when the inode itself is locked") is not longer valid.
We should revert to the original behavior: in __writeback_single_inode(),
when we find an I_SYNC-ed inode and we're not doing a data-integrity sync,
skip writing entirely. Otherwise, we are double calling do_writepages()

This patch fixes a sles9 system hang in start_this_handle from a customer
with some heavy workload where all tasks are waiting on kjournald to commit
the transaction, but kjournald waits on t_updates to go down to zero (it
never does).
This was reported as a lowmem shortage deadlock but when checking the debug
data I noticed the VM wasn't under pressure at all (well it was really
under vm pressure, because lots of tasks hanged in the VM prune_dcache
methods trying to flush dirty inodes, but no task was hanging in GFP_NOFS
mode, the holder of the journal handle should have if this was a vm issue
in the first place).
No task was apparently holding the leftover handle in the committing
transaction, so I deduced t_updates was stuck to 1 because a journal_stop
was never run by some path (this turned out to be correct). With a debug
patch adding proper reverse links and stack trace logging in ext3 deployed
in production, I found journal_stop is never run because
mark_inode_dirty_sync is called inside release_task called by do_exit.
(that was quite fun because I would have never thought about this
subtleness, I thought a regular path in ext3 had a bug and it forgot to
call journal_stop)
do_exit->release_task->mark_inode_dirty_sync->schedule() (will never
come back to run journal_stop)
The reason is that shrink_dcache_parent is racy by design (feature not
a bug) and it can do blocking I/O in some case, but the point is that
calling shrink_dcache_parent at the last stage of do_exit isn't safe
for self-reaping tasks.
I guess the memory pressure of the unbalanced highmem system allowed
to trigger this more easily.
Now mainline doesn't have this line in iput (like sles9 has):
if (inode->i_state & I_DIRTY_DELAYED)
mark_inode_dirty_sync(inode);
so it will probably not crash with ext3, but for example ext2 implements an
I/O-blocking ext2_put_inode that will lead to similar screwups with
ext2_free_blocks never coming back and it's definitely wrong to call
blocking-IO paths inside do_exit. So this should fix a subtle bug in
mainline too (not verified in practice though). The equivalent fix for
ext3 is also not verified yet to fix the problem in sles9 but I don't have
doubt it will (it usually takes days to crash, so it'll take weeks to be
sure).
An alternate fix would be to offload that work to a kernel thread, but I
don't think a reschedule for this is worth it, the vm should be able to
collect those entries for the synchronous release_task.

The "proportional set size" (PSS) of a process is the count of pages it has
in memory, where each page is divided by the number of processes sharing
it. So if a process has 1000 pages all to itself, and 1000 shared with one
other process, its PSS will be 1500.
- lwn.net: "ELC: How much memory are applications really using?"
The PSS proposed by Matt Mackall is a very nice metic for measuring an
process's memory footprint. So collect and export it via
/proc/<pid>/smaps.
Matt Mackall's pagemap/kpagemap and John Berthels's exmap can also do the
job. They are comprehensive tools. But for PSS, let's do it in the simple
way.

I think we mistakenly merged the removal of the constuctor into a cleanup
patch. You (ie: akpm) had a test that showed that the removal of the
constructor led to a small regression. The prior state makes things easier
for slab defrag.

Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions
zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)
Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
makes code clearer.
zero_user_segment(page, start, end)
Same for a single segment.
zero_user(page, start, length)
Length variant for the case where we know the length.
We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:
1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.
2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.
Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.
Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
functions defined in highmem.h.
Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
functions are called.
Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:
int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
const struct itimerspec *utmr,
struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);
The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.
The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).
The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time.
The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.
Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

Neil Brown points out that we're checking buf[size-1] in a couple places
without first checking whether size is zero.
Actually, given the implementation of simple_transaction_get(), buf[-1]
is zero, so in both of these cases the subsequent check of the value of
buf[size-1] will catch this case.
But it seems fragile to depend on that, so add explicit checks for this
case.

Neither EPERM and ENOENT map to valid errors for PUTROOTFH according to
rfc 3530, and, if anything, ENOENT is likely to be slightly more
informative; so don't bother mapping ENOENT to EPERM. (Probably this
was originally done because one likely cause was that there is an fsid=0
export but that it isn't permitted to this particular client. Now that
we allow WRONGSEC returns, this is somewhat less likely.)
In the long term we should work to make this situation less likely,
perhaps by turning off nfsv4 service entirely in the absence of the
pseudofs root, or constructing a pseudofilesystem root ourselves in the
kernel as necessary.

Update the write handler for the portlist file to allow creating new
listening endpoints on a transport. The general form of the string is:
<transport_name><space><port number>
For example:
echo "tcp 2049" > /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist
This is intended to support the creation of a listening endpoint for
RDMA transports without adding #ifdef code to the nfssvc.c file.
Transports can also be removed as follows:
'-'<transport_name><space><port number>
For example:
echo "-tcp 2049" > /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist
Attempting to add a listener with an invalid transport string results
in EPROTONOSUPPORT and a perror string of "Protocol not supported".
Attempting to remove an non-existent listener (.e.g. bad proto or port)
results in ENOTCONN and a perror string of
"Transport endpoint is not connected"

Move sk_list and sk_ready to svc_xprt. This involves close because these

the moving of these lists to svc_xprt with making close transport independent.
The svc_force_sock_close has been changed to svc_close_all and takes a list

This patch addresses a compatibility issue with a Linux NFS server and
AIX NFS client.
I have exported /export as fsid=0 with sec=krb5:krb5i
I have mount --bind /home onto /export/home
I have exported /export/home with sec=krb5i
The AIX client mounts / -o sec=krb5:krb5i onto /mnt
If I do an ls /mnt, the AIX client gets a permission error. Looking at
the network traceIwe see a READDIR looking for attributes
FATTR4_RDATTR_ERROR and FATTR4_MOUNTED_ON_FILEID. The response gives a
NFS4ERR_WRONGSEC which the AIX client is not expecting.
Since the AIX client is only asking for an attribute that is an
attribute of the parent file system (pseudo root in my example), it
seems reasonable that there should not be an error.
In discussing this issue with Bruce Fields, I initially proposed
ignoring the error in nfsd4_encode_dirent_fattr() if all that was being
asked for was FATTR4_RDATTR_ERROR and FATTR4_MOUNTED_ON_FILEID, however,
Bruce suggested that we avoid calling cross_mnt() if only these
attributes are requested.
The following patch implements bypassing cross_mnt() if only
FATTR4_RDATTR_ERROR and FATTR4_MOUNTED_ON_FILEID are called. Since there
is some complexity in the code in nfsd4_encode_fattr(), I didn't want to
duplicate code (and introduce a maintenance nightmare), so I added a
parameter to nfsd4_encode_fattr() that indicates whether it should
ignore cross mounts and simply fill in the attribute using the passed in
dentry as opposed to it's parent.

The failure to return a stateowner from nfs4_preprocess_seqid_op() means
in the case where a lock request is of a type incompatible with an open
(due to, e.g., an application attempting a write lock on a file open for
read), means that fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c:ENCODE_SEQID_OP_TAIL() never bumps
the seqid as it should. The client, attempting to close the file
afterwards, then gets an (incorrect) bad sequence id error. Worse, this
prevents the open file from ever being closed, so we leak state.

When the callback channel fails, we inform the client of that by
returning a cb_path_down error the next time it tries to renew its
lease.
If we wait most of a lease period before deciding that a callback has
failed and that the callback channel is down, then we decrease the
chances that the client will find out in time to do anything about it.
So, mark the channel down as soon as we recognize that an rpc has
failed. However, continue trying to recall delegations anyway, in hopes
it will come back up. This will prevent more delegations from being
given out, and ensure cb_path_down is returned to renew calls earlier,
while still making the best effort to deliver recalls of existing
delegations.

Some devices - notably dm and md - can change their behaviour in response
to BIO_RW_BARRIER requests. They might start out accepting such requests
but on reconfiguration, they find out that they cannot any more.
ext3 (and other filesystems) deal with this by always testing if
BIO_RW_BARRIER requests fail with EOPNOTSUPP, and retrying the write
requests without the barrier (probably after waiting for any pending writes
to complete).
However there is a bug in the handling for this for ext3.
When ext3 (jbd actually) decides to submit a BIO_RW_BARRIER request, it
sets the buffer_ordered flag on the buffer head. If the request completes
successfully, the flag STAYS SET.
Other code might then write the same buffer_head after the device has been
reconfigured to not accept barriers. This write will then fail, but the
"other code" is not ready to handle EOPNOTSUPP errors and the error will be
treated as fatal.
This can be seen without having to reconfigure a device at exactly the
wrong time by putting:
if (buffer_ordered(bh))
printk("OH DEAR, and ordered buffer\n");
in the while loop in "commit phase 5" of journal_commit_transaction.
If it ever prints the "OH DEAR ..." message (as it does sometimes for
me), then that request could (in different circumstances) have failed
with EOPNOTSUPP, but that isn't tested for.
My proposed fix is to clear the buffer_ordered flag after it has been
used, as in the following patch.

There are two possible races in handling of private_list in buffer cache.
1) When fsync_buffers_list() processes a private_list, it clears
b_assoc_mapping and moves buffer to its private list. Now
drop_buffers() comes, sees a buffer is on list so it calls
__remove_assoc_queue() which complains about b_assoc_mapping being
cleared (as it cannot propagate possible IO error). This race has been
actually observed in the wild.
2) When fsync_buffers_list() processes a private_list,
mark_buffer_dirty_inode() can be called on bh which is already on the
private list of fsync_buffers_list(). As buffer is on some list (note
that the check is performed without private_lock), it is not readded to
the mapping's private_list and after fsync_buffers_list() finishes, we
have a dirty buffer which should be on private_list but it isn't. This
race has not been reported, probably because most (but not all) callers
of mark_buffer_dirty_inode() hold i_mutex and thus are serialized with
fsync().
Fix these issues by not clearing b_assoc_map when fsync_buffers_list()
moves buffer to a dedicated list and by reinserting buffer in private_list
when it is found dirty after we have submitted buffer for IO. We also
change the tests whether a buffer is on a private list from
!list_empty(&bh->b_assoc_buffers) to bh->b_assoc_map so that they are
single word reads and hence lockless checks are safe.

This patchset moves le*_add_cpu and be*_add_cpu functions from OCFS2 to core
header (1st), converts ext3 filesystem to this API (2nd) and replaces XFS
different named functions with new ones (3rd).
There are many places where these functions will be useful. Just look at:
grep -r 'cpu_to_[ble12346]*([ble12346]*_to_cpu.*[-+]' linux-src/ Patch for
ext3 is an example how conversions will probably look like.
This patch:
- move inline functions which add native byte order variable to
little/big endian variable to core header
* le16_add_cpu(__le16 *var, u16 val)
* le32_add_cpu(__le32 *var, u32 val)

This is a rewrite of the ramdisk block device driver.
The old one is really difficult because it effectively implements a block
device which serves data out of its own buffer cache. It relies on the dirty
bit being set, to pin its backing store in cache, however there are non
trivial paths which can clear the dirty bit (eg. try_to_free_buffers()),
which had recently lead to data corruption. And in general it is completely
wrong for a block device driver to do this.
The new one is more like a regular block device driver. It has no idea about
vm/vfs stuff. It's backing store is similar to the buffer cache (a simple
radix-tree of pages), but it doesn't know anything about page cache (the pages
in the radix tree are not pagecache pages).
There is one slight downside -- direct block device access and filesystem
metadata access goes through an extra copy and gets stored in RAM twice.
However, this downside is only slight, because the real buffercache of the
device is now reclaimable (because we're not playing crazy games with it), so
under memory intensive situations, footprint should effectively be the same --
maybe even a slight advantage to the new driver because it can also reclaim
buffer heads.
The fact that it now goes through all the regular vm/fs paths makes it
much more useful for testing, too.
text data bss dec hex filename
2837 849 384 4070 fe6 drivers/block/rd.o
3528 371 12 3911 f47 drivers/block/brd.o
Text is larger, but data and bss are smaller, making total size smaller.
A few other nice things about it:
- Similar structure and layout to the new loop device handlinag.
- Dynamic ramdisk creation.
- Runtime flexible buffer head size (because it is no longer part of the
ramdisk code).
- Boot / load time flexible ramdisk size, which could easily be extended
to a per-ramdisk runtime changeable size (eg. with an ioctl).
- Can use highmem for the backing store.

Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not
be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case. Not
only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either.
To make this work, this patch also does the following:
(1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on
CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT.
(2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT
core dumping code.
(3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline. This
is then included only where needed. This means that this bit of arch
code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than
the core kernel.
(4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not
needed) and FRV.
This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of
asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT
format is available.

Some time ago the xxx_vnr() calls (e.g. pid_vnr or find_task_by_vpid) were
_all_ converted to operate on the current pid namespace. After this each call
like xxx_nr_ns(foo, current->nsproxy->pid_ns) is nothing but a xxx_vnr(foo)
one.
Switch all the xxx_nr_ns() callers to use the xxx_vnr() calls where
appropriate.

Typical PDE creation code looks like:
pde = create_proc_entry("foo", 0, NULL);
if (pde)
pde->proc_fops = &foo_proc_fops;
Notice that PDE is first created, only then ->proc_fops is set up to
final value. This is a problem because right after creation
a) PDE is fully visible in /proc , and
b) ->proc_fops are proc_file_operations which do not have ->open callback. So, it's
possible to ->read without ->open (see one class of oopses below).
The fix is new API called proc_create() which makes sure ->proc_fops are
set up before gluing PDE to main tree. Typical new code looks like:
pde = proc_create("foo", 0, NULL, &foo_proc_fops);
if (!pde)
return -ENOMEM;
Fix most networking users for a start.
In the long run, create_proc_entry() for regular files will go.

Long ago when the CLONE_THREAD support first went it someone thought it
would be wise to point /proc/self at /proc/<tgid> instead of /proc/<pid>.
Given that /proc/<tgid> can return information about a very different task
(if enough things have been unshared) then our current process /proc/<tgid>
seems blatantly wrong. So far I have yet to think up an example where the
current behavior would be advantageous, and I can see several places where
it is seriously non-intuitive.
We may be stuck with the current broken behavior for backwards
compatibility reasons but lets try fixing our ancient bug for the 2.6.25
time frame and see if anyone screams.

Currently (as pointed out by Oleg) do_task_stat has a race when calling
task_pid_nr_ns with the task exiting. In addition do_task_stat is not
currently displaying information in the context of the pid namespace that
mounted the /proc filesystem. So "cut -d' ' -f 1 /proc/<pid>/stat" may not
equal <pid>.
This patch fixes the problem by converting to a single_open seq_file show
method. Getting the pid namespace from the filesystem superblock instead of
current, and simply using the the struct pid from the inode instead of
attempting to get that same pid from the task.

Trond and Bruce,
This is a patch for 2.6.25. This is the same version that was sent out
on December 12 for review (no comments to date).
To simplify the RPC/RDMA client and server build configuration, make
SUNRPC_XPRT_RDMA a hidden config option that continues to depend on
SUNRPC and INFINIBAND. The value of SUNRPC_XPRT_RDMA will be:
- N if either SUNRPC or INFINIBAND are N
- M if both SUNRPC and INFINIBAND are on (M or Y) and at least one is M
- Y if both SUNRPC and INFINIBAND are Y
In 2.6.25, all of the RPC/RDMA related files are grouped in
net/sunrpc/xprtrdma and the net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/Makefile builds both
the client and server RPC/RDMA support using this config option.

If the inode is flagged as having an invalid mapping, then we can't rely on
the PageUptodate() flag. Ensure that we don't use the "anti-fragmentation"
write optimisation in nfs_updatepage(), since that will cause NFS to write
out areas of the page that are no longer guaranteed to be up to date.
A potential corruption could occur in the following scenario:
client 1 client 2
=============== ===============
fd=open("f",O_CREAT|O_WRONLY,0644);
write(fd,"fubar\n",6); // cache last page
close(fd);
fd=open("f",O_WRONLY|O_APPEND);
write(fd,"foo\n",4);
close(fd);
fd=open("f",O_WRONLY|O_APPEND);
write(fd,"bar\n",4);
close(fd);
-----
The bug may lead to the file "f" reading 'fubar\n\0\0\0\nbar\n' because
client 2 does not update the cached page after re-opening the file for
write. Instead it keeps it marked as PageUptodate() until someone calls
invaldate_inode_pages2() (typically by calling read()).

struct user.u_ar0 is defined to contain a pointer offset on all
architectures in which it is defined (all architectures which define an
a.out format except SPARC.) However, it has a pointer type in the headers,
which is pointless -- <asm/user.h> is not exported to userspace, and it
just makes the code messy.
Redefine the field as "unsigned long" (which is the same size as a pointer
on all Linux architectures) and change the setting code to user offsetof()
instead of hand-coded arithmetic.

Remove the old iget() call and the read_inode() superblock operation it uses
as these are really obsolete, and the use of read_inode() does not produce
proper error handling (no distinction between ENOMEM and EIO when marking an
inode bad).
Furthermore, this removes the temptation to use iget() to find an inode by
number in a filesystem from code outside that filesystem.
iget_locked() should be used instead. A new function is added in an earlier
patch (iget_failed) that is to be called to mark an inode as bad, unlock it
and release it should the get routine fail. Mark iget() and read_inode() as
being obsolete and remove references to them from the documentation.
Typically a filesystem will be modified such that the read_inode function
becomes an internal iget function, for example the following:
void thingyfs_read_inode(struct inode *inode)
{
...
}
would be changed into something like:
struct inode *thingyfs_iget(struct super_block *sp, unsigned long ino)
{
struct inode *inode;
int ret;
inode = iget_locked(sb, ino);
if (!inode)
return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
if (!(inode->i_state & I_NEW))
return inode;
...
unlock_new_inode(inode);
return inode;
error:
iget_failed(inode);
return ERR_PTR(ret);
}
and then thingyfs_iget() would be called rather than iget(), for example:
ret = -EINVAL;
inode = iget(sb, ino);
if (!inode || is_bad_inode(inode))
goto error;
becomes:
inode = thingyfs_iget(sb, ino);
if (IS_ERR(inode)) {
ret = PTR_ERR(inode);
goto error;
}
Note that is_bad_inode() does not need to be called. The error returned by
thingyfs_iget() should render it unnecessary.

instead of EINVAL.
Note that the contents of hppfs_kern.c need to be examined:
(*) The HPPFS inode retains a pointer to the proc dentry it is shadowing, but
whilst it does appear to retain a reference to it, it doesn't appear to
destroy the reference if the inode goes away.
(*) hppfs_iget() should perhaps subsume init_inode() and hppfs_read_inode().

was being called with inode number 0, which forms the lookup key.

Stop the OPENPROMFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace
openpromfs_read_inode() with openpromfs_iget(), and call that instead of
iget(). openpromfs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a
proper error code instead of an inode in the event of an error.
openpromfs_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of ENOMEM (not that it currently incurs any other error).
