2012-08-16autofs4 - fix get_next_positive_subdir()Ian Kent
Following a report of a crash during an automount expire I found that the locking in fs/autofs4/expire.c:get_next_positive_subdir() was wrong. Not only is the locking wrong but the function is more complex than it needs to be. The function is meant to calculate (and dget) the next entry in the list of directories contained in the root of an autofs mount point (an autofs indirect mount to be precise). The main problem was that the d_lock of the owner of the list was not being taken when walking the list, which lead to list corruption under load. The only other lock that needs to be taken is against the next dentry candidate so it can be checked for usability.

2012-08-09Btrfs: remove mnt_want_write call in btrfs_mksubvolAlexander Block
We got a recursive lock in mksubvol because the caller already held a lock. I think we got into this due to a merge error. Commit a874a63 removed the mnt_want_write call from btrfs_mksubvol and added a replacement call to mnt_want_write_file in btrfs_ioctl_snap_create_transid. Commit e7848683 however tried to move all calls to mnt_want_write above i_mutex. So somewhere while merging this, it got mixed up. The solution is to remove the mnt_want_write call completely from mksubvol.

2012-08-06fuse: verify all ioctl retry iov elementsZach Brown
Commit 7572777eef78ebdee1ecb7c258c0ef94d35bad16 attempted to verify that the total iovec from the client doesn't overflow iov_length() but it only checked the first element. The iovec could still overflow by starting with a small element. The obvious fix is to check all the elements. The overflow case doesn't look dangerous to the kernel as the copy is limited by the length after the overflow. This fix restores the intention of returning an error instead of successfully copying less than the iovec represented. I found this by code inspection. I built it but don't have a test case. I'm cc:ing stable because the initial commit did as well. Signed-off-by: Zach Brown <zab@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> CC: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [2.6.37+]

2012-08-04vfs: kill write_super and sync_supersArtem Bityutskiy
Finally we can kill the 'sync_supers' kernel thread along with the '->write_super()' superblock operation because all the users are gone. Now every file-system is supposed to self-manage own superblock and its dirty state. The nice thing about killing this thread is that it improves power management. Indeed, 'sync_supers' is a source of monotonic system wake-ups - it woke up every 5 seconds no matter what - even if there were no dirty superblocks and even if there were no file-systems using this service (e.g., btrfs and journalled ext4 do not need it). So it was wasting power most of the time. And because the thread was in the core of the kernel, all systems had to have it. So I am quite happy to make it go away. Interestingly, this thread is a left-over from the pdflush kernel thread which was a self-forking kernel thread responsible for all the write-back in old Linux kernels. It was turned into per-block device BDI threads, and 'sync_supers' was a left-over. Thus, R.I.P, pdflush as well.

2012-08-02exofs: Fix __r4w_get_page when offset is beyond i_sizeBoaz Harrosh
It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then the XOR should be preformed with all zeros. Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't like the kind of bugs this calls for.

2012-08-02exofs: stop using s_dirtArtem Bityutskiy
Exofs has the '->write_super()' handler and makes some use of the '->s_dirt' superblock flag, but it really needs neither of them because it never sets 's_dirt' to one which means the VFS never calls its '->write_super()' handler. Thus, remove both. Note, I am trying to remove both 's_dirt' and 'write_super()' from VFS altogether once all users are gone.

2012-07-31nfs: disable data cache revalidation for swapfilesMel Gorman
The VM does not like PG_private set on PG_swapcache pages. As suggested by Trond in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/25/348, this patch disables NFS data cache revalidation on swap files. as it does not make sense to have other clients change the file while it is being used as swap. This avoids setting PG_private on swap pages, since there ought to be no further races with invalidate_inode_pages2() to deal with. Since we cannot set PG_private we cannot use page->private which is already used by PG_swapcache pages to store the nfs_page. Thus augment the new nfs_page_find_request logic.

But 635697c6 ("vmscan: fix initial shrinker size handling") fixed the problem, again so we can freely return -1 although nr_to_scan is zero.

Pull nfsd changes from J. Bruce Fields: "This has been an unusually quiet cycle--mostly bugfixes and cleanup. The one large piece is Stanislav's work to containerize the server's grace period--but that in itself is just one more step in a not-yet-complete project to allow fully containerized nfs service. There are a number of outstanding delegation, container, v4 state, and gss patches that aren't quite ready yet; 3.7 may be wilder." * 'nfsd-next' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (35 commits) NFSd: make boot_time variable per network namespace NFSd: make grace end flag per network namespace Lockd: move grace period management from lockd() to per-net functions LockD: pass actual network namespace to grace period management functions LockD: manage grace list per network namespace SUNRPC: service request network namespace helper introduced NFSd: make nfsd4_manager allocated per network namespace context.

2012-07-31nfs: explicitly reject LOCK_MAND flock() requestsJeff Layton
We have no mechanism to emulate LOCK_MAND locks on NFSv4, so explicitly return -EINVAL if someone requests it. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2012-07-31nfs: increase number of permitted callback connections.NeilBrown
By default a sunrpc service is limited to (N+3)*20 connections where N is the number of threads. This is 80 when N==1. If this number is exceeded a warning is printed suggesting that the number of threads be increased. However with services which run a single thread, this is impossible. For such services there is a ->sv_maxconn setting that can be used to forcibly increase the limit, and silence the message. This is used by lockd. The nfs client uses a sunrpc service to handle callbacks and it too is single-threaded, so to avoid the useless messages, and to allow a reasonable number of concurrent connections, we need to set ->sv_maxconn. 1024 seems like a good number.

2012-07-31ext2: Implement freezingJan Kara
The only missing piece to make freezing work reliably with ext2 is to stop iput() of unlinked inode from deleting the inode on frozen filesystem. So add a necessary protection to ext2_evict_inode(). We also provide appropriate ->freeze_fs and ->unfreeze_fs functions. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-31btrfs: Convert to new freezing mechanismJan Kara
We convert btrfs_file_aio_write() to use new freeze check. We also add proper freeze protection to btrfs_page_mkwrite(). We also add freeze protection to the transaction mechanism to avoid starting transactions on frozen filesystem. At minimum this is necessary to stop iput() of unlinked file to change frozen filesystem during truncation. Checks in cleaner_kthread() and transaction_kthread() can be safely removed since btrfs_freeze() will lock the mutexes and thus block the threads (and they shouldn't have anything to do anyway).

2012-07-31nilfs2: Convert to new freezing mechanismJan Kara
We change nilfs_page_mkwrite() to provide proper freeze protection for writeable page faults (we must wait for frozen filesystem even if the page is fully mapped). We remove all vfs_check_frozen() checks since they are now handled by the generic code.
