This patch cleans up some redundancies in the reiserfs tree path code.

decrement_bcount() is essentially the same function as brelse(), so we use
that instead.

decrement_counters_in_path() is exactly the same function as pathrelse(), so
we kill that and use pathrelse() instead.

There's also a bit of cleanup that makes the code a bit more readable.

Jeff Mahoney 57fe60df62 reiserfs: add atomic addition of selinux attributes during inode creation
Some time ago, some changes were made to make security inode attributes
be atomically written during inode creation.  ReiserFS fell behind in
this area, but with the reworking of the xattr code, it's now fairly
easy to add.

The following patch adds the ability for security attributes to be added
automatically during inode creation.

Jeff Mahoney a41f1a4715 reiserfs: use generic readdir for operations across all xattrs
The current reiserfs xattr implementation open codes reiserfs_readdir
and frees the path before calling the filldir function.  Typically, the
filldir function is something that modifies the file system, such as a
chown or an inode deletion that also require reading of an inode
associated with each direntry.  Since the file system is modified, the
path retained becomes invalid for the next run.  In addition, it runs
backwards in attempt to minimize activity.

This is clearly suboptimal from a code cleanliness perspective as well
as performance-wise.

This patch implements a generic reiserfs_for_each_xattr that uses the
generic readdir and a specific filldir routine that simply populates an
array of dentries and then performs a specific operation on them.  When
all files have been operated on, it then calls the operation on the
directory itself.

The result is a noticable code reduction and better performance.

Jeff Mahoney 0ab2621ebd reiserfs: journaled xattrs
Deadlocks are possible in the xattr code between the journal lock and the
xattr sems.

This patch implements journalling for xattr operations. The benefit is
twofold:
 * It gets rid of the deadlock possibility by always ensuring that xattr
   write operations are initiated inside a transaction.
 * It corrects the problem where xattr backing files aren't considered any
   differently than normal files, despite the fact they are metadata.

I discussed the added journal load with Chris Mason, and we decided that
since xattrs (versus other journal activity) is fairly rare, the introduction
of larger transactions to support journaled xattrs wouldn't be too big a deal.

Jeff Mahoney 48b32a3553 reiserfs: use generic xattr handlers
Christoph Hellwig had asked me quite some time ago to port the reiserfs
xattrs to the generic xattr interface.

This patch replaces the reiserfs-specific xattr handling code with the
generic struct xattr_handler.

However, since reiserfs doesn't split the prefix and name when accessing
xattrs, it can't leverage generic_{set,get,list,remove}xattr without
needlessly reconstructing the name on the back end.

Update 7/26/07: Added missing dput() to deletion path.
Update 8/30/07: Added missing mark_inode_dirty when i_mode is used to
                represent an ACL and no previous ACL existed.

Jeff Mahoney a72bdb1cd2 reiserfs: Clean up xattrs when REISERFS_FS_XATTR is unset
The current reiserfs xattr implementation will not clean up old xattr
files if files are deleted when REISERFS_FS_XATTR is unset.  This
results in inaccessible lost files, wasting space.

This patch compiles in basic xattr knowledge, such as how to delete them
and change ownership for quota tracking.  If the file system has never
used xattrs, then the operation is quite fast: it returns immediately
when it sees there is no .reiserfs_priv directory.

Jeff Mahoney 600ed41675 reiserfs: audit transaction ids to always be unsigned ints
This patch fixes up the reiserfs code such that transaction ids are
always unsigned ints.  In places they can currently be signed ints or
unsigned longs.

The former just causes an annoying clm-2200 warning and may join a
transaction when it should wait.

The latter is just for correctness since the disk format uses a 32-bit
transaction id.  There aren't any runtime problems that result from it
not wrapping at the correct location since the value is truncated
correctly even on big endian systems.  The 0 value might make it to
disk, but the mount-time checks will bump it to 10 itself.

Tyler Hicks 8faece5f90 eCryptfs: Allocate a variable number of pages for file headers
When allocating the memory used to store the eCryptfs header contents, a
single, zeroed page was being allocated with get_zeroed_page().
However, the size of an eCryptfs header is either PAGE_CACHE_SIZE or
ECRYPTFS_MINIMUM_HEADER_EXTENT_SIZE (8192), whichever is larger, and is
stored in the file's private_data->crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front
field.

ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents() was using
num_header_bytes_at_front to decide how many bytes should be written to
the lower filesystem for the file header.  Unfortunately, at least 8K
was being written from the page, despite the chance of the single,
zeroed page being smaller than 8K.  This resulted in random areas of
kernel memory being written between the 0x1000 and 0x1FFF bytes offsets
in the eCryptfs file headers if PAGE_SIZE was 4K.

This patch allocates a variable number of pages, calculated with
num_header_bytes_at_front, and passes the number of allocated pages
along to ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents().

Thanks to Florian Streibelt for reporting the data leak and working with
me to find the problem.  2.6.28 is the only kernel release with this
vulnerability.  Corresponds to CVE-2009-0787

The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a

Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process

(since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0).

The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless"

I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue

Linus Torvalds ee568b25ee Avoid 64-bit "switch()" statements on 32-bit architectures
Commit ee6f779b9e ("filp->f_pos not
correctly updated in proc_task_readdir") changed the proc code to use
filp->f_pos directly, rather than through a temporary variable.  In the
process, that caused the operations to be done on the full 64 bits, even
though the offset is never that big.

That's all fine and dandy per se, but for some unfathomable reason gcc
generates absolutely horrid code when using 64-bit values in switch()
statements.  To the point of actually calling out to gcc helper
functions like __cmpdi2 rather than just doing the trivial comparisons
directly the way gcc does for normal compares.  At which point we get
link failures, because we really don't want to support that kind of
crazy code.

Fix this by just casting the f_pos value to "unsigned long", which
is plenty big enough for /proc, and avoids the gcc code generation issue.

Eric Sandeen d33a1976fb ext4: fix bb_prealloc_list corruption due to wrong group locking
This is for Red Hat bug 490026: EXT4 panic, list corruption in
ext4_mb_new_inode_pa

ext4_lock_group(sb, group) is supposed to protect this list for
each group, and a common code flow to remove an album is like
this:

    ext4_get_group_no_and_offset(sb, pa->pa_pstart, &grp, NULL);
    ext4_lock_group(sb, grp);
    list_del(&pa->pa_group_list);
    ext4_unlock_group(sb, grp);

so it's critical that we get the right group number back for
this prealloc context, to lock the right group (the one 
associated with this pa) and prevent concurrent list manipulation.

however, ext4_mb_put_pa() passes in (pa->pa_pstart - 1) with a 
comment, "-1 is to protect from crossing allocation group".

This makes sense for the group_pa, where pa_pstart is advanced
by the length which has been used (in ext4_mb_release_context()),
and when the entire length has been used, pa_pstart has been
advanced to the first block of the next group.

However, for inode_pa, pa_pstart is never advanced; it's just
set once to the first block in the group and not moved after
that.  So in this case, if we subtract one in ext4_mb_put_pa(),
we are actually locking the *previous* group, and opening the
race with the other threads which do not subtract off the extra
block.

Zhang Le ee6f779b9e filp->f_pos not correctly updated in proc_task_readdir
filp->f_pos only get updated at the end of the function. Thus d_off of those
dirents who are in the middle will be 0, and this will cause a problem in
glibc's readdir implementation, specifically endless loop. Because when overflow
occurs, f_pos will be set to next dirent to read, however it will be 0, unless
the next one is the last one. So it will start over again and again.

There is a sample program in man 2 gendents. This is the output of the program
running on a multithread program's task dir before this patch is applied:

  $ ./a.out /proc/3807/task
  --------------- nread=128 ---------------
  i-node#  file type  d_reclen  d_off   d_name
    506442  directory    16          1  .
    506441  directory    16          0  ..
    506443  directory    16          0  3807
    506444  directory    16          0  3809
    506445  directory    16          0  3812
    506446  directory    16          0  3861
    506447  directory    16          0  3862
    506448  directory    16          8  3863

This is the output after this patch is applied

  $ ./a.out /proc/3807/task
  --------------- nread=128 ---------------
  i-node#  file type  d_reclen  d_off   d_name
    506442  directory    16          1  .

Stricter gfp_mask might be required for clone allocation.
For example, request-based dm may clone bio in interrupt context
so it has to use GFP_ATOMIC.
