Andrew Morton 2363cc0264 [PATCH] remove protection of LANANA-reserved majors
Revert all this.  It can cause device-mapper to receive a different major from
earlier kernels and it turns out that the Amanda backup program (via GNU tar,
apparently) checks major numbers on files when performing incremental backups.

Which is a bit broken of Amanda (or tar), but this feature isn't important
enough to justify the churn.

Andrew Morton 1aa9b4b9bc [PATCH] revert "retries in ext3_prepare_write() violate ordering requirements"
Revert e92a4d595b.

Dmitry points out

"When we block_prepare_write() failed while ext3_prepare_write() we jump to
 "failure" label and call ext3_prepare_failure() witch search last mapped bh
 and invoke commit_write untill it.  This is wrong!!  because some bh from
 begining to the last mapped bh may be not uptodate.  As a result we commit to
 disk not uptodate page content witch contains garbage from previous usage."

and

"Unexpected file size increasing."

   Call trace the same as it was in first issue but result is different.
   For example we have file with i_size is zero.  we want write two blocks ,
   but fs has only one free block.

   ->ext3_prepare_write(...from == 0, to == 2048)
     retry:
     ->block_prepare_write() == -ENOSPC# we failed but allocated one block here.
     ->ext3_prepare_failure()
       ->commit_write( from == 0, to == 1024) # after this i_size becomes 1024 :)
     if (ret == -ENOSPC && ext3_should_retry_alloc(inode->i_sb, &retries))
        goto retry;

   Finally when all retries will be spended ext3_prepare_failure return
   -ENOSPC, but i_size was increased and later block trimm procedures can't
   help here.

We don't appear to have the horsepower to fix these issues, so let's put
things back the way they were for now.

All those functions are in fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c, which has no CONFIG_
#define's in it, so the patch makes the compilation of that file to depend
on CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL (the simplest choice).

Nick Piggin 08c7259163 2/2 splice: dont readpage
Splice does not need to readpage to bring the page uptodate before writing
to it, because prepare_write will take care of that for us.

Splice is also wrong to SetPageUptodate before the page is actually uptodate.
This results in the old uninitialised memory leak. This gets fixed as a
matter of course when removing the readpage logic.

Nick Piggin 485ddb4b97 1/2 splice: dont steal
Stealing pages with splice is problematic because we cannot just insert
an uptodate page into the pagecache and hope the filesystem can take care
of it later.

We also cannot just ClearPageUptodate, then hope prepare_write does not
write anything into the page, because I don't think prepare_write gives
that guarantee.

Remove support for SPLICE_F_MOVE for now. If we really want to bring it
back, we might be able to do so with a the new filesystem buffered write
aops APIs I'm working on. If we really don't want to bring it back, then
we should decide that sooner rather than later, and remove the flag and
all the stealing infrastructure before anybody starts using it.

Fix the /proc/pid/stat representation of executable boundaries.  It should
show the bounds of the executable, but instead shows the bounds of the

Before the patch is applied, the bug can be seen by examining, say, inetd:

	# ps | grep inetd
	  610         root          0   S   /usr/sbin/inetd -i

 	3273467584 0 0 4096 90115 3221712796 0 0 17 0 0 0 0

The code boundaries are 3233480704 to 3233523592, which are:

	(gdb) p/x 3233480704
	$1 = 0xc0bb0000
	(gdb) p/x 3233523592
	$2 = 0xc0bba788

Which corresponds to this line in the maps file:

	c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157  /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so

Which is wrong.  After the patch is applied, the maps file is pretty much
identical (there's some minor shuffling of the location of some of the
anonymous VMAs), but the stat file is now:

	# cat /proc/610/stat
	610 (inetd) S 1 610 610 0 -1 256 0 0 0 0 0 7 0 0 18 0 1 0 94392000722
	950272 0 4294967295 3276111872 3276141668 3274440352 3274439976
	3273467584 0 0 4096 90115 3221712796 0 0 17 0 0 0 0

The code boundaries are then 3276111872 to 3276141668, which are:

	(gdb) p/x 3276111872
	$1 = 0xc3458000
	(gdb) p/x 3276141668
	$2 = 0xc345f464

And these correspond to this line in the maps file instead:

	c3458000-c345f464 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 16384612  /usr/sbin/inetd

Which is now correct.

James Bottomley d1cabd6326 [PATCH] fix process crash caused by randomisation and 64k pages
This bug was seen on ppc64, but it could have occurred on any
architecture with a page size of 64k or above.  The problem is that in
fs/binfmt_elf.c:randomize_stack_top() randomizes the stack to within
0x7ff pages.  On 4k page machines, this is 8MB; on 64k page boxes, this
is 128MB.

The problem is that the new binary layout (selected in
arch_pick_mmap_layout) places the mapping segment 128MB or the stack
rlimit away from the top of the process memory, whichever is larger.  If
you chose an rlimit of less than 128MB (most defaults are in the 8Mb
range) then you can end up having your entire stack randomized away.

The fix is to make randomize_stack_top() only steal at most 8MB, which this
patch does.  However, I have to point out that even with this, your stack
rlimit might not be exactly what you get if it's > 128MB, because you're
still losing the random offset of up to 8MB.

The true fix should be to leave an explicit gap for the randomization plus
a buffer when determining mmap_base, but that would involve fixing all the
architectures.

Johannes Berg e5d480ff17 [PATCH] change misleading EFI partition support description
Remove the misleading "Presently only useful on the IA-64 platform" text
from the EFI partition Kconfig.

EFI partitions are also used by Apple on their Intel-based machines and
thus you need EFI partition support if you (for example) want to attach
such a machine in target disk mode.

Trond Myklebust 634707388b [PATCH] nfs: nfs_getattr() can't call nfs_sync_mapping_range() for non-regular files
Looks like we need a check in nfs_getattr() for a regular file. It makes
no sense to call nfs_sync_mapping_range() on anything else. I think that
should fix your problem: it will stop the NFS client from interfering
with dirty pages on that inode's mapping.

Peter Zijlstra 89a09141df [PATCH] nfs: fix congestion control
The current NFS client congestion logic is severly broken, it marks the
backing device congested during each nfs_writepages() call but doesn't
mirror this in nfs_writepage() which makes for deadlocks.  Also it
implements its own waitqueue.

Replace this by a more regular congestion implementation that puts a cap on
the number of active writeback pages and uses the bdi congestion waitqueue.

Also always use an interruptible wait since it makes sense to be able to
SIGKILL the process even for mounts without 'intr'.

suzuki b74a2f0913 [PATCH] fix rescan_partitions to return errors properly
The only error code which comes from the partition checkers is -1, when
they finds an EIO.  As per the discussion, ENOMEM values were ignored,
as they might scare the users.

So, with the current code, we end up returning -1 and not EIO for the
ioctl() calls.  Which doesn't give any clue to the user of what went
wrong.

Vasily Averin 1174cf7301 [PATCH] smbfs: double free memory corruption
smbfs allocates rq_trans2buffer to handle server's multi transaction2 response
messages.  As struct smb_request may be reused, rq_trans2buffer is freed
before each new request.  However if last servers's response is not multi but
single trans2 message then new rq_trans2buffer is not allocated but last
smb_rput still tries to free it again.

To prevent this issue rq_trans2buffer pointer should be set to NULL after
kfree.

Evgeniy Dushistov 4b25a37e20 [PATCH] ufs: zeroize the rest of block in truncate
This patch fix behaviour in such test scenario:

  lseek(fd, BIG_OFFSET)
  write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf))
  truncate(BIG_OFFSET)
  truncate(BIG_OFFSET + sizeof(buf))
  read(fd, buf...)

Because of if file big enough(BIG_OFFSET) we start allocate space by block,
ordinary block size > page size, so we should zeroize the rest of block in
truncate(except last framgnet, about which VFS should care), to not get
garbage, when we extend file.

Also patch corrects conversion from pointer to block to physical block number,
this helps in case of not common used UFS types.

And add to debug output inode number.

Evgeniy Dushistov 2189850f42 [PATCH] ufs2: more correct work with time
This patch corrects work with time in UFS2 case.

1) According to UFS2 disk layout modification/access and so on "time"
   should be hold in two variables one 64bit for seconds and another 32bit for
   nanoseconds,

   at now for some unknown reason we suppose that "inode time" holds in
   three variables 32bit for seconds, 32bit for milliseconds and 32bit for
   nanoseconds.

2) We set amount of nanoseconds in "VFS inode" to 0 during read, instead of
   getting values from "on disk inode"(this should close
   http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7991).

want Windows semantics on that handle (which allows Samba

Alan Stern e7b0d26a86 [PATCH] sysfs: reinstate exclusion between method calls and attribute unregistration
This patch (as869) reinstates the mutual exclusion between sysfs
attribute method calls and attribute unregistration.  The
previously-reported deadlocks have been fixed, and this exclusion is
by far the simplest way to avoid races during driver unbinding.

The check for orphaned read-buffers has been moved down slightly, so
that the remainder of a partially-read buffer will still be available
to userspace even after the attribute has been unregistered.

This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need
to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's
context.  This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to
unregister themselves or their parent device.  Attribute method calls
are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be
taken directly.

Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one
for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices.
