3b6036d148 hostfs ->follow_link() braino
we want the assignment to err done inside the if () to be
visible after it, so (re)declaring err inside if () body
is wrong.

9cb569d601 remove SWRITE* I/O types
These flags aren't real I/O types, but tell ll_rw_block to always
lock the buffer instead of giving up on a failed trylock.

Instead add a new write_dirty_buffer helper that implements this semantic
and use it from the existing SWRITE* callers.  Note that the ll_rw_block
code had a bug where it didn't promote WRITE_SYNC_PLUG properly, which
this patch fixes.

In the ufs code clean up the helper that used to call ll_rw_block
to mirror sync_dirty_buffer, which is the function it implements for
compound buffers.

dad5eb6daa vfs: update ctime when changing the file's permission by setfacl
generic_acl_set didn't update the ctime of the file when its permission was
changed.

Steps to reproduce:
 # touch aaa
 # stat -c %Z aaa
 1275289822
 # setfacl -m  'u::x,g::x,o::x' aaa
 # stat -c %Z aaa
 1275289822                         <- unchanged

But, according to the spec of the ctime, vfs must update it.

d7627467b7 Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:

arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().

do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.

Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.

This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

ea1a16f716 nilfs2: fix false warning saying one of two super blocks is broken
After applying commit b2ac86e1, the following message got appeared
after unclean shutdown:

> NILFS warning: broken superblock. using spare superblock.

This turns out to be a false message due to the change which updates
two super blocks alternately.  The secondary super block now can be
selected if it's newer than the primary one.

This kills the false warning by suppressing it if another super block
is not actually broken.

d7824370e2 mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard page
This commit makes the stack guard page somewhat less visible to user
space. It does this by:

 - not showing the guard page in /proc/<pid>/maps

   It looks like lvm-tools will actually read /proc/self/maps to figure
   out where all its mappings are, and effectively do a specialized
   "mlockall()" in user space.  By not showing the guard page as part of
   the mapping (by just adding PAGE_SIZE to the start for grows-up
   pages), lvm-tools ends up not being aware of it.

 - by also teaching the _real_ mlock() functionality not to try to lock
   the guard page.

   That would just expand the mapping down to create a new guard page,
   so there really is no point in trying to lock it in place.

It would perhaps be nice to show the guard page specially in
/proc/<pid>/maps (or at least mark grow-down segments some way), but
let's not open ourselves up to more breakage by user space from programs
that depends on the exact deails of the 'maps' file.

Special thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh for diving into lvm-tools
source code to see what was going on with the whole new warning.

81d73a32d7 mm: fix writeback_in_progress()
Commit 83ba7b071f3 ("writeback: simplify the write back thread queue")
broke writeback_in_progress() as in that commit we started to remove work
items from the list at the moment we start working on them and not at the
moment they are finished.  Thus if the flusher thread was doing some work
but there was no other work queued, writeback_in_progress() returned
false.  This could in particular cause unnecessary queueing of background
writeback from balance_dirty_pages() or writeout work from
writeback_sb_if_idle().

This patch fixes the problem by introducing a bit in the bdi state which
indicates that the flusher thread is processing some work and uses this
bit for writeback_in_progress() test.

NOTE: Both callsites of writeback_in_progress() (namely,
writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle() and balance_dirty_pages()) would actually
need a different information than what writeback_in_progress() provides.
They would need to know whether *the kind of writeback they are going to
submit* is already queued.  But this information isn't that simple to
provide so let's fix writeback_in_progress() for the time being.

a50aeb4014 writeback: merge for_kupdate and !for_kupdate cases
Unify the logic for kupdate and non-kupdate cases.  There won't be
starvation because the inodes requeued into b_more_io will later be
spliced _after_ the remaining inodes in b_io, hence won't stand in the way
of other inodes in the next run.

It avoids unnecessary redirty_tail() calls, hence the update of
i_dirtied_when.  The timestamp update is undesirable because it could
later delay the inode's periodic writeback, or may exclude the inode from
the data integrity sync operation (which checks timestamp to avoid extra
work and livelock).

===
How the redirty_tail() comes about:

It was a long story..  This redirty_tail() was introduced with
wbc.more_io.  The initial patch for more_io actually does not have the
redirty_tail(), and when it's merged, several 100% iowait bug reports
arised:

reiserfs:
        http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/23/93

jfs:
        commit 29a424f28390752a4ca2349633aaacc6be494db5
        JFS: clear PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY for no-write pages

ext2:
        http://www.spinics.net/linux/lists/linux-ext4/msg04762.html

They are all old bugs hidden in various filesystems that become "visible"
with the more_io patch.  At the time, the ext2 bug is thought to be
"trivial", so not fixed.  Instead the following updated more_io patch with
redirty_tail() is merged:

	http://www.spinics.net/linux/lists/linux-ext4/msg04507.html

This will in general prevent 100% on ext2 and possibly other unknown FS bugs.

Avoid delaying writeback for an expire inode with lots of dirty pages, but
no active dirtier at the moment.  Previously we only do that for the

Any filesystem that does delayed allocation or unwritten extent conversion
after IO completion will cause this - for example, XFS.

Split get_dirty_limits() into global_dirty_limits()+bdi_dirty_limit(), so
that the latter can be avoided when under global dirty background
threshold (which is the normal state for most systems).

bec5eb6141 AFS: Implement an autocell mount capability [ver #2]
Implement the ability for the root directory of a mounted AFS filesystem to
accept lookups of arbitrary directory names, to interpet the names as the names
of cells, to look the cell names up in the DNS for AFSDB records and to mount
the root.cell volume of the nominated cell on the pseudo-directory created by
lookup.

This facility is requested by passing:

	-o autocell

to the mountpoint for which this is desired, usually the /afs mount.

To use this facility, a DNS upcall program is required for AFSDB records.  This
can be obtained from:

	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/afs/dns.afsdb.c

It should be compiled with -lresolv and -lkeyutils and installed as, say:

	/usr/sbin/dns.afsdb

Then the following line needs to be added to /sbin/request-key.conf:

	create	dns_resolver afsdb:*	*	/usr/sbin/dns.afsdb %k

This can be tested by mounting AFS, say:

	insmod dns_resolver.ko
	insmod af-rxrpc.ko
	insmod kafs.ko rootcell=grand.central.org
	mount -t afs "#grand.central.org:root.cell." /afs -o autocell

and doing:

	ls /afs/grand.central.org/

which should show:

	archive/  cvs/  doc/  local/  project/  service/  software/  user/  www/

if it works.

4a2d789267 DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]
If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached in the DNS resolver
key in lieu of a value.  Userspace passes the desired error number as an option
in the payload:

	"#dnserror=<number>"

Userspace must map h_errno from the name resolution routines to an appropriate
Linux error before passing it up.  Something like the following mapping is
recommended:

	[HOST_NOT_FOUND]	= ENODATA,
	[TRY_AGAIN]		= EAGAIN,
	[NO_RECOVERY]		= ECONNREFUSED,
	[NO_DATA]		= ENODATA,

in lieu of Linux errors specifically for representing name service errors.  The
filesystem must map these errors appropropriately before passing them to
userspace.  AFS is made to map ENODATA and EAGAIN to EDESTADDRREQ for the
return to userspace; ECONNREFUSED is allowed to stand as is.

The error can be seen in /proc/keys as a negative number after the description
of the key.  Compare, for example, the following key entries:

2f97238c I--Q--     1  53s 3f010000     0     0 dns_resol afsdb:grand.centrall.org: -61
338bfbbe I--Q--     1  59m 3f010000     0     0 dns_resol afsdb:grand.central.org: 37

If the error option is supplied in the payload, the main part of the payload is
discarded.  The key should have an expiry time set by userspace.

cleanly, but Al had removed an unnecessary header include, so his side
was better.
