2009-07-10block: fix sg SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV regressionFUJITA Tomonori
I overlooked SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV support when I converted sg to use the block layer mapping API (2.6.28). Douglas Gilbert explained SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37135.html = The semantics of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV were: - copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer - do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN (data from device) variety. This would overwrite some or all of the kernel buffer - copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space. The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way of detecting short reads but that was only added this century and requires co-operation from the LLD. = This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ requests. It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer mapping API. zhou sf reported this regiression and tested this patch: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37128.html http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37168.html Reported-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Tested-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

The following test script triggers a deadlock on ext2 filesystem: while true; do quotaon /dev/hda >&/dev/null; usleep $RANDOM; done & while true; do quotaoff /dev/hda >&/dev/null; usleep $RANDOM; done & I found there is a potential deadlock between quotaon and quotaoff (or quotasync). Basically, all of quotactl operations need to be protected by dqonoff_mutex. vfs_quota_off and vfs_quota_sync also call sb->s_op->quota_write that needs to grab the i_mutex of the quota file. But in vfs_quota_on_inode (called from quotaon operation), the current code tries to grab the i_mutex of the quota file first before getting quonoff_mutex.

2009-07-06sys_sync(): fix 16% performance regression in ffsb create_4k testZhang, Yanmin
I run many ffsb test cases on JBODs (typically 13/12 disks). Comparing with kernel 2.6.30, 2.6.31-rc1 has about 16% regression with ffsb_create_4k. The sub test case creates files continuously for 10 minitues and every file is 1MB. Bisect located below patch. 5cee5815d1564bbbd505fea86f4550f1efdb5cd0 is first bad commit commit 5cee5815d1564bbbd505fea86f4550f1efdb5cd0 Author: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Date: Mon Apr 27 16:43:51 2009 +0200 vfs: Make sys_sync() use fsync_super() (version 4) It is unnecessarily fragile to have two places (fsync_super() and do_sync()) doing data integrity sync of the filesystem. Alter __fsync_super() to accommodate needs of both callers and use it. So after this patch __fsync_super() is the only place where we gather all the calls needed to properly send all data on a filesystem to disk. As a matter of fact, ffsb calls sys_sync in the end to make sure all data is flushed to disks and the flushing is counted into the result. vmstat shows ffsb is blocked when syncing for a long time. With 2.6.30, ffsb is blocked for a short time. I checked the patch and did experiments to recover the original methods. Eventually, the root cause is the patch deletes the calling to wakeup_pdflush when syncing, so only ffsb is blocked on disk I/O. wakeup_pdflush could ask pdflush to write back pages with ffsb at the same time.

2009-07-03NFSD: Don't hold unrefcounted creds over call to nfsd_setuser()David Howells
nfsd_open() gets an unrefcounted pointer to the current process's effective credentials at the top of the function, then calls nfsd_setuser() via fh_verify() - which may replace and destroy the current process's effective credentials - and then passes the unrefcounted pointer to dentry_open() - but the credentials may have been destroyed by this point. Instead, the value from current_cred() should be passed directly to dentry_open() as one of its arguments, rather than being cached in a variable. Possibly fh_verify() should return the creds to use.

2009-07-02Btrfs: update backrefs while dropping snapshotYan Zheng
The new backref format has restriction on type of backref item. If a tree block isn't referenced by its owner tree, full backrefs must be used for the pointers in it. When a tree block loses its owner tree's reference, backrefs for the pointers in it should be updated to full backrefs. Current btrfs_drop_snapshot misses the code that updates backrefs, so it's unsafe for general use. This patch adds backrefs update code to btrfs_drop_snapshot.

2009-07-01cifs: add new cifs_iget function and convert unix codepath to use itJeff Layton
cifs: add new cifs_iget function and convert unix codepath to use it In order to unify some codepaths, introduce a common cifs_fattr struct for storing inode attributes. The different codepaths (unix, legacy, normal, etc...) can fill out this struct with inode info. It can then be passed as an arg to a common set of routines to get and update inodes. Add a new cifs_iget function that uses iget5_locked to identify inodes. This will compare inodes based on the uniqueid value in a cifs_fattr struct. Rather than filling out an already-created inode, have cifs_get_inode_info_unix instead fill out cifs_fattr and hand that off to cifs_iget. cifs_iget can then properly look for hardlinked inodes. On the readdir side, add a new cifs_readdir_lookup function that spawns populated dentries. Redefine FILE_UNIX_INFO so that it's basically a FILE_UNIX_BASIC_INFO that has a few fields wrapped around it. This allows us to more easily use the same function for filling out the fattr as the non-readdir codepath. With this, we should then have proper hardlink detection and can eventually get rid of some nasty CIFS-specific hacks for handing them.

2009-06-30ext2: return -EIO not -ESTALE on directory traversal through deleted inodeBryan Donlan
ext2_iget() returns -ESTALE if invoked on a deleted inode, in order to report errors to NFS properly. However, in ext[234]_lookup(), this -ESTALE can be propagated to userspace if the filesystem is corrupted such that a directory entry references a deleted inode. This leads to a misleading error message - "Stale NFS file handle" - and confusion on the part of the admin. The bug can be easily reproduced by creating a new filesystem, making a link to an unused inode using debugfs, then mounting and attempting to ls -l said link. This patch thus changes ext2_lookup to return -EIO if it receives -ESTALE from ext2_iget(), as ext2 does for other filesystem metadata corruption; and also invokes the appropriate ext*_error functions when this case is detected.

2009-06-30elf: limit max map count to safe valueKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
With ELF, at generating coredump, some more headers other than used vmas are added. When max_map_count == 65536, a core generated by following kinds of code can be unreadable because the number of ELF's program header is written in 16bit in Ehdr (please see elf.h) and the number overflows. == ... = mmap(); (munmap, mprotect, etc...) if (failed) abort(); == This can happen in mmap/munmap/mprotect/etc...which calls split_vma(). I think 65536 is not safe as _default_ and reduce it to 65530 is good for avoiding unexpected corrupted core. Anyway, max_map_count can be enlarged by sysctl if a user is brave..

2009-06-30eventfd: revised interface and cleanupsDavide Libenzi
Change the eventfd interface to de-couple the eventfd memory context, from the file pointer instance. Without such change, there is no clean way to racely free handle the POLLHUP event sent when the last instance of the file* goes away. Also, now the internal eventfd APIs are using the eventfd context instead of the file*. This patch is required by KVM's IRQfd code, which is still under development.

2009-06-30fuse: invalidation reverse callsJohn Muir
Add notification messages that allow the filesystem to invalidate VFS caches. Two notifications are added: 1) inode invalidation - invalidate cached attributes - invalidate a range of pages in the page cache (this is optional) 2) dentry invalidation - try to invalidate a subtree in the dentry cache Care must be taken while accessing the 'struct super_block' for the mount, as it can go away while an invalidation is in progress. To prevent this, introduce a rw-semaphore, that is taken for read during the invalidation and taken for write in the ->kill_sb callback.
