cfq_exit_lock is protecting two things now:
- The per-ioc rbtree of cfq_io_contexts
- The per-cfqd linked list of cfq_io_contexts
The per-cfqd linked list can be protected by the queue lock, as it is (by
definition) per cfqd as the queue lock is.
The per-ioc rbtree is mainly used and updated by the process itself only.
The only outside use is the io priority changing. If we move the
priority changing to not browsing the rbtree, we can remove any locking
from the rbtree updates and lookup completely. Let the sys_ioprio syscall
just mark processes as having the iopriority changed and lazily update
the private cfq io contexts the next time io is queued, and we can
remove this locking as well.

o As per ELF specifications, it looks like that elf note "namesz" field
contains the length of "name" including the size of null character. And
currently we are filling "namesz" without taking into the consideration
the null character size.
o Kexec-tools performs this check deligently hence I ran into the issue
while trying to open /proc/kcore in kexec-tools for some info.

The patches solve the following problem: We want to grant access to devices
based on who is logged in from where, etc. This includes switching back and
forth between multiple user sessions, etc.
Using ACLs to define device access for logged-in users gives us all the
flexibility we need in order to fully solve the problem.
Device special files nowadays usually live on tmpfs, hence tmpfs ACLs.
Different distros have come up with solutions that solve the problem to
different degrees: SUSE uses a resource manager which tracks login sessions
and sets ACLs on device inodes as appropriate. RedHat uses pam_console, which
changes the primary file ownership to the logged-in user. Others use a set of
groups that users must be in in order to be granted the appropriate accesses.
The freedesktop.org project plans to implement a combination of a
console-tracker and a HAL-device-list based solution to grant access to
devices to users, and more distros will likely follow this approach.
These patches have first been posted here on 2 February 2005, and again
on 8 January 2006. We have been shipping them in SLES9 and SLES10 with
no problems reported. The previous submission is archived here:

POSIX states that poll() shall fail with EINVAL if nfds > OPEN_MAX. In
this context, POSIX is referring to sysconf(OPEN_MAX), which is the value
of current->signal->rlim[RLIMIT_NOFILE].rlim_cur in the linux kernel, not
the compile-time constant which happens to also be named OPEN_MAX. In the
current code, an application may poll up to max_fdset file descriptors,
even if this exceeds RLIMIT_NOFILE. The current code also breaks
applications which poll more than max_fdset descriptors, which worked circa
2.4.18 when the check was against NR_OPEN, which is 1024*1024. This patch
enforces the limit precisely as POSIX defines, even if RLIMIT_NOFILE has
been changed at run time with ulimit -n.
To elaborate on the rationale for this, there are three cases:
1) RLIMIT_NOFILE is at the default value of 1024
In this (default) case, the patch changes nothing. Calls with nfds > 1024
fail with EINVAL both before and after the patch, and calls with nfds <=
1024 pass the check both before and after the patch, since 1024 is the
initial value of max_fdset.
2) RLIMIT_NOFILE has been raised above the default
In this case, poll() becomes more permissive, allowing polling up to
RLIMIT_NOFILE file descriptors even if less than 1024 have been opened.
The patch won't introduce new errors here. If an application somehow
depends on poll() failing when it polls with duplicate or invalid file
descriptors, it's already broken, since this is already allowed below 1024,
and will also work above 1024 if enough file descriptors have been open at
some point to cause max_fdset to have been increased above nfds.
3) RLIMIT_NOFILE has been lowered below the default
In this case, the system administrator or the user has gone out of their
way to protect the system from inefficient (or malicious) applications
wasting kernel memory. The current code allows polling up to 1024 file
descriptors even if RLIMIT_NOFILE is much lower, which is not what the user
or administrator intended. Well-written applications which only poll
valid, unique file descriptors will never notice the difference, because
they'll hit the limit on open() first. If an application gets broken
because of the patch in this case, then it was already poorly/maliciously
designed, and allowing it to work in the past was a violation of POSIX and
a DoS risk on low-resource systems.
With this patch, poll() will permit exactly what POSIX suggests, no more,
no less, and for any run-time value set with ulimit -n, not just 256 or
1024. There are existing apps which which poll a large number of file
descriptors, some of which may be invalid, and if those numbers stradle
1024, they currently fail with or without the patch in -mm, though they
worked fine under 2.4.18.

ISO9660 file system
There was an I/O error that prevented reading the last partial block of
large files in an ISO9660 filesystem. The error was generated when a file
comprised more than one section and had a size that was not an exact
multiple of the filesystem block size. This patch removes the check (and
failure) for reading into the last partial block (and possibly beyond) for
multiple-section files.
It worked in my testing to prevent reading beyond the end of the section;
my first patch just incremented the sect_size block count for a partial
block and continued doing the check. But there is a commment in the source
code about reading beyond the end of the file to fill a page cache.
Failing to access beyond the section would prevent reading beyond the end
of the file.

The problem is that close() syscalls can call a file system's flush
handler, which in turn might sleep interruptibly and ultimately pass back
an -ERESTARTSYS return value. This happens for files backed by an
interruptible NFS mount under nfs_file_flush() when a large file has just
been written and nfs_wait_bit_interruptible() detects that there is a
signal pending.
I have a test case where the "strace" command is used to attach to a
process sleeping in such a close(). Since the SIGSTOP is forced onto the
victim process (removing it from the thread's "blocked" mask in
force_sig_info()), the RPC wait is interrupted and the close() is
terminated early.
But the file table entry has already been cleared before the flush handler
was called. Thus, when the syscall is restarted, the file descriptor
appears closed and an EBADF error is returned (which is wrong). What's
worse, there is the hypothetical case where another thread of a
multi-threaded application might have reused the file descriptor, in which
case that file would be mistakenly closed.
The bottom line is that close() syscalls are not restartable, and thus
-ERESTARTSYS return values should be mapped to -EINTR. This is consistent
with the close(2) manual page. The fix is below.

The code in __register_chrdev_region checks that if the driver wishing to
register has the same major as an existing driver the new minor range is
strictly less than the existing minor range. However, it does not also
check that the new minor range is strictly greater than the existing minor
range. That is, if driver X has registered with major=x and minor=0-3,
__register_chrdev_region will allow driver Y to register with major=x and
minor=1-4.

[assuming BSD security levels are deleted]
The only user of i_security, f_security, s_security fields is SELinux,
however, quite a few security modules are trying to get into kernel.
So, wrap them under CONFIG_SECURITY. Adding config option for each
security field is likely an overkill.
Following Stephen Smalley's suggestion, i_security initialization is
moved to security_inode_alloc() to not clutter core code with ifdefs
and make alloc_inode() codepath tiny little bit smaller and faster.
The user of (highly greppable) struct fown_struct::security field is
still to be found. I've checked every "fown_struct" and every "f_owner"
occurence. Additionally it's removal doesn't break i386 allmodconfig
build.
struct inode, struct file, struct super_block, struct fown_struct
become smaller.
P.S. Combined with two reiserfs inode shrinking patches sent to
linux-fsdevel, I can finally suck 12 reiserfs inodes into one page.

ReiserFS does periodic cleanup of old transactions in order to limit the
length of time a journal replay may take after a crash. Sometimes, writing
metadata from an old (already committed) transaction may require committing
a newer transaction, which also requires writing all data=ordered buffers.
This can cause very long stalls on journal_begin.
This patch makes sure new transactions will not need to be committed before
trying a periodic reclaim of an old transaction. It is low risk because if
a bad decision is made, it just means a slightly longer journal replay
after a crash.

There's a bug where a UDF_PART_FLAG_READ_ONLY udf partition gets mounted
read-write, then subsequent problems happen; files seem to be able to be
removed, but file creation results in EIO or worse, oops.
EIO is coming from udf_new_block(), which returns EIO if the right flags
aren't set; only UDF_PART_FLAG_READ_ONLY is set in this case. We probably
s hould not have gotten this far...
Attached patch seems to fix it - and includes a printk to alert the user

The on-disk data structures from AIX are not known, also the filesystem
layout is not known. There is a msdos partition signature at the end of
the first block, and the kernel recognizes 3 small (and overlapping)
partitions. But they are not usable. Maybe the firmware uses it to find
the bootloader for AIX, but AIX boots also if the first block is cleared.
This is the content of the partition table:
# dd if=/dev/sdb count=$(( 4 * 16 )) bs=1 skip=$(( 0x1be )) | xxd
0000000: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ................
0000010: 80ff ffff 41ff ffff 1b11 0000 381b 0000 ....A.......8...
0000020: 00ff ffff 41ff ffff 0211 0000 1900 0000 ....A...........
0000030: 80ff ffff 41ff ffff 1b11 0000 381b 0000 ....A.......8...
Handle the whole disk as empty disk.
This fixes also YaST which compares the output from parted (and formerly
fdisk) with /proc/partitions. fdisk recognizes the AIX label since a long
time, SuSE has a patch for parted to handle the disk label as unknown.
dmesg will look like this:

Some filesystems may want to report different values depending on the path
within the filesystem, i.e. one mount is actually several filesystems. This
can be the case for a network filesystem exported by an unprivileged server
(e.g. sshfs).
This is now possible, thanks to David Howells "VFS: Permit filesystem to

This change is backward compatible, so no need to change interface version.

Check driver layer errors.
Fix from: "Jun'ichi Nomura" <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com>
In blockdevc-check-errors.patch, add_bd_holder() is modified to return error
values when some of its operation failed. Among them, it returns -EEXIST when
a given bd_holder object already exists in the list.
However, in this case, the function completed its work successfully and need
no action by its caller other than freeing unused bd_holder object. So I
think it's better to return success after freeing by itself.
Otherwise, bd_claim-ing with same claim pointer will fail.
Typically, lvresize will fails with following message:
device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument
and you'll see messages like below in kernel log:
device-mapper: table: 254:13: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
Similarly, it should not add bd_holder to the list if either one of symlinking
fails. I don't have a test case for this to happen but it should cause
dereference of freed pointer.
If a matching bd_holder is found in bd_holder_list, add_bd_holder() completes
its job by just incrementing the reference count. In this case, it should be
considered as success but it used to return 'fail' to let the caller free
temporary bd_holder. Fixed it to return success and free given object by
itself.
Also, if either one of symlinking fails, the bd_holder should not be added to
the list so that it can be discarded later. Otherwise, the caller will free
bd_holder which is in the list.

The previous attempts to fix the linux inode use-after-free in xfs_iunpin
simply made the problem harder to hit. We actually need complete exclusion
between xfs_reclaim and xfs_iunpin, as well as ensuring that the i_flags
are consistent during both of these functions. Introduce a new spinlock
for exclusion and the i_flags, and fix up xfs_iunpin to use igrab before
marking the inode dirty.

Under a sequential create+allocate workload, blktrace reported backward
writes being issued by xfsbufd, and frequent inappropriate queue unplugs.
We now insert at the tail when moving from the delwri lists to the temp
lists, which maintains correct ordering, and we avoid unplugging queues
deep in the submit paths when we'd shortly do it at a higher level anyway.
blktrace now reports much healthier write patterns from xfsbufd for this
workload (and likely many others).

In de_thread we move pids from one process to another, a rather ugly case.
The function transfer_pid makes it clear what we are doing, and makes the
action atomic. This is useful we ever want to atomically traverse the
process group and session lists, in a rcu safe manner.
Even if the atomic properties this change should be a win as transfer_pid
should be less code to execute than executing both attach_pid and
detach_pid, and this should make de_thread slightly smaller as only a
single function call needs to be emitted. The only downside is that the
code might be slower to execute as the odds are against transfer_pid being
in cache.

The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).
This patch:
The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.

For a long time now I have had a problem with not being able to return a
lookup failure on an existsing directory. In autofs this corresponds to a
mount failure on a autofs managed mount entry that is browsable (and so the
mount point directory exists).
While this problem has been present for a long time I've avoided resolving
it because it was not very visible. But now that autofs v5 has "mount and
expire on demand" of nested multiple mounts, such as is found when mounting
an export list from a server, solving the problem cannot be avoided any
longer.
I've tried very hard to find a way to do this entirely within the autofs4
module but have not been able to find a satisfactory way to achieve it.
So, I need to propose a change to the VFS.

SWsoft Virtuozzo/OpenVZ Linux kernel team has discovered that ext3 error
behavior was broken in linux kernels since 2.5.x versions by the following
patch:
2002/10/31 02:15:26-05:00 tytso@snap.thunk.org
Default mount options from superblock for ext2/3 filesystems
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/gnupatch@3dc0d88eKbV9ivV4ptRNM8fBuA3JBQ
In case ext3 file system is mounted with errors=continue
(EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE) errors should be ignored when possible. However at
present in case of any error kernel aborts journal and remounts filesystem
to read-only. Such behavior was hit number of times and noted to differ
from that of 2.4.x kernels.
This patch fixes this:
- do nothing in case of EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE,
- set EXT3_MOUNT_ABORT and call journal_abort() in all other cases
- panic() should be called after ext3_commit_super() to save
sb marked as EXT3_ERROR_FS

These are a few places I've found in jbd that look like they may not be
16T-safe, or consistent with the use of unsigned longs for block
containers. Problems here would be somewhat hard to hit, would require
journal blocks past the 8T boundary, which would not be terribly common.
Still, should fix.
(some of these have come from the ext4 work on jbd as well).
I think there's one more possibility that the wrap() function may not be
safe IF your last block in the journal butts right up against the 232 block
boundary, but that seems like a VERY remote possibility, and I'm not
worrying about it at this point.

I need to do some actual IO testing now, but this gets things mounting for
a 16T ext3 filesystem. (patched up e2fsprogs is needed too, I'll send that
off the kernel list)
This patch fixes these issues in the kernel:
o sbi->s_groups_count overflows in ext3_fill_super()
sbi->s_groups_count = (le32_to_cpu(es->s_blocks_count) -
le32_to_cpu(es->s_first_data_block) +
EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) - 1) /
EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb);
at 16T, s_blocks_count is already maxed out; adding
EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) overflows it and groups_count comes out to 0.
Not really what we want, and causes a failed mount.
Feel free to check my math (actually, please do!), but changing it this
way should work & avoid the overflow:
(A + B - 1)/B changed to: ((A - 1)/B) + 1
o ext3_check_descriptors() overflows range checks
ext3_check_descriptors() iterates over all block groups making sure
that various bits are within the right block ranges... on the last pass
through, it is checking the error case
[item] >= block + EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb)
where "block" is the first block in the last block group. The last
block in this group (and the last one that will fit in 32 bits) is block
+ EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb)- 1. block + EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) wraps
back around to 0.
so, make things clearer with "first_block" and "last_block" where those
are first and last, inclusive, and use <, > rather than <, >=.
Finally, the last block group may be smaller than the rest, so account
for this on the last pass through: last_block = sb->s_blocks_count - 1;
(a similar patch could be done for ext2; does anyone in their right mind
use ext2 at 16T? I'll send an ext2 patch doing the same thing if that's
warranted)

Tracking of dirty pages in shared writeable mmap()s.
The idea is simple: write protect clean shared writeable pages, catch the
write-fault, make writeable and set dirty. On page write-back clean all the
PTE dirty bits and write protect them once again.
The implementation is a tad harder, mainly because the default
backing_dev_info capabilities were too loosely maintained. Hence it is not
enough to test the backing_dev_info for cap_account_dirty.
The current heuristic is as follows, a VMA is eligible when:
- its shared writeable
(vm_flags & (VM_WRITE|VM_SHARED)) == (VM_WRITE|VM_SHARED)
- it is not a 'special' mapping
(vm_flags & (VM_PFNMAP|VM_INSERTPAGE)) == 0
- the backing_dev_info is cap_account_dirty
mapping_cap_account_dirty(vma->vm_file->f_mapping)
- f_op->mmap() didn't change the default page protection
Page from remap_pfn_range() are explicitly excluded because their COW
semantics are already horrid enough (see vm_normal_page() in do_wp_page()) and
because they don't have a backing store anyway.
mprotect() is taught about the new behaviour as well. However it overrides
the last condition.
Cleaning the pages on write-back is done with page_mkclean() a new rmap call.
It can be called on any page, but is currently only implemented for mapped
pages, if the page is found the be of a VMA that accounts dirty pages it will
also wrprotect the PTE.
Finally, in fs/buffers.c:try_to_free_buffers(); remove clear_page_dirty() from
under ->private_lock. This seems to be safe, since ->private_lock is used to
serialize access to the buffers, not the page itself. This is needed because
clear_page_dirty() will call into page_mkclean() and would thereby violate
locking order.

Original commit code assumes, that when a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is
locked, it is being written to disk. But this is not true and hence it can
lead to a potential data loss on crash. Also the code didn't count with
the fact that journal_dirty_data() can steal buffers from committing
transaction and hence could write buffers that no longer belong to the
committing transaction. Finally it could possibly happen that we tried
writing out one buffer several times.
The patch below tries to solve these problems by a complete rewrite of the
data commit code. We go through buffers on t_sync_datalist, lock buffers
needing write out and store them in an array. Buffers are also immediately
refiled to BJ_Locked list or unfiled (if the write out is completed). When
the array is full or we have to block on buffer lock, we submit all
accumulated buffers for IO.

OCFS2 puts inode meta data in the "lock value block" provided by the DLM.
Typically, i_generation is encoded in the lock name so that a deleted inode
on and a new one in the same block don't share the same lvb.
Unfortunately, that scheme means that the read in ocfs2_read_locked_inode()
is potentially thrown away as soon as the meta data lock is taken - we
cannot encode the lock name without first knowing i_generation, which
requires a disk read.
This patch encodes i_generation in the inode meta data lvb, and removes the
value from the inode meta data lock name. This way, the read can be covered
by a lock, and at the same time we can distinguish between an up to date and
a stale LVB.
This will help cold-cache stat(2) performance in particular.
Since this patch changes the protocol version, we take the opportunity to do
a minor re-organization of two of the LVB fields.

have nfs_rename() unconditionally do the d_move(). While there, we rename
the flag to be more descriptive.
OCFS2 uses this to protect that part of the rename operation with a cluster
lock.

Replace the dentry vote mechanism with a cluster lock which covers a set
of dentries. This allows us to force d_delete() only on nodes which actually
care about an unlink.
Every node that does a ->lookup() gets a read only lock on the dentry, until
an unlink during which the unlinking node, will request an exclusive lock,
forcing the other nodes who care about that dentry to d_delete() it. The
effect is that we retain a very lightweight ->d_revalidate(), and at the
same time get to make large improvements to the average case performance of
the ocfs2 unlink and rename operations.
This patch adds the higher level API and the dentry manipulation code.

out so that this change can compile.

RFC3530 states that the registered port 2049 for the NFS protocol should be
the default configuration in order to allow clients not to use the RPC
binding protocols.
If the mount program sends us a port=0, we therefore substitute port=2049.

Currently, a read() request will return EIO even if the file has been
deleted on the server, simply because that is what the VM will return
if the call to readpage() fails to update the page.
Ensure that readpage() marks the inode as stale if it receives an ESTALE.
Then return that error to userland.

If the open intents tell us that a given lookup is going to result in a,
exclusive create, we currently optimize away the lookup call itself. The
reason is that the lookup would not be atomic with the create RPC call, so
why do it in the first place?
A problem occurs, however, if the VFS aborts the exclusive create operation
after the lookup, but before the call to create the file/directory: in this
case we will end up with a hashed negative dentry in the dcache that has
never been looked up.
Fix this by only actually hashing the dentry once the create operation has
been successfully completed.

If the LOOKUP or GETATTR in nfs_instantiate fail, nfs_instantiate will do a
d_drop before returning. But some callers already do a d_drop in the case
of an error return. Make certain we do only one d_drop in all error paths.
This issue was introduced because over time, the symlink proc API diverged
slightly from the create/mkdir/mknod proc API. To prevent other coding
mistakes of this type, change the symlink proc API to be more like
create/mkdir/mknod and move the nfs_instantiate call into the symlink proc
routines so it is used in exactly the same way for create, mkdir, mknod,
and symlink.

Connectathon, all versions of NFS.

In the early days of NFS, there was no duplicate reply cache on the server.
Thus retransmitted non-idempotent requests often found that the request had
already completed on the server. To avoid passing an unanticipated return
code to unsuspecting applications, NFS clients would often shunt error
codes that implied the request had been retried but already completed.
Thanks to NFS over TCP, duplicate reply caches on the server, and network
performance and reliability improvements, it is safe to remove such checks.
Test plan:
None.
