mmu_private is 64bits value, hence it's not atomic to update. So, the access rule for mmu_private is we must hold ->i_mutex. But, fat_get_block() path doesn't follow the rule on non-allocation path.

2008-11-06fat: Fix ATTR_RO for directoryOGAWA Hirofumi3-12/+35
FAT has the ATTR_RO (read-only) attribute. But on Windows, the ATTR_RO of the directory will be just ignored actually, and is used by only applications as flag. E.g. it's setted for the customized folder by Explorer. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa969337.aspx This adds "rodir" option. If user specified it, ATTR_RO is used as read-only flag even if it's the directory. Otherwise, inode->i_mode is not used to hold ATTR_RO (i.e. fat_mode_can_save_ro() returns 0).

2008-11-06fat: Fix ATTR_RO in the case of (~umask & S_WUGO) == 0OGAWA Hirofumi2-5/+35
If inode->i_mode doesn't have S_WUGO, current code assumes it means ATTR_RO. However, if (~[ufd]mask & S_WUGO) == 0, inode->i_mode can't hold S_WUGO. Therefore the updated directory entry will always have ATTR_RO. This adds fat_mode_can_hold_ro() to check it. And if inode->i_mode can't hold, uses -i_attrs to hold ATTR_RO instead. With this, we don't set ATTR_RO unless users change it via ioctl() if (~[ufd]mask & S_WUGO) == 0. And on FAT_IOCTL_GET_ATTRIBUTES path, this adds ->i_mutex to it for not returning the partially updated attributes by FAT_IOCTL_SET_ATTRIBUTES to userland.

This adds three helpers: fat_make_attrs() - makes FAT attributes from inode. fat_make_mode() - makes mode_t from FAT attributes. fat_save_attrs() - saves FAT attributes to inode. Then this replaces: MSDOS_MKMODE() by fat_make_mode(), fat_attr() by fat_make_attrs(), ->i_attrs = attr & ATTR_UNUSED by fat_save_attrs(). And for root inode, those is used with ATTR_DIR instead of bogus ATTR_NONE.

- Add comments for handling dcache of vfat. - Separate case-sensitive case and case-insensitive to vfat_revalidate() and vfat_ci_revalidate(). vfat_revalidate() doesn't need to drop case-insensitive negative dentry on creation path. - Current code is missing to set ->d_revalidate to the negative dentry created by unlink/etc.. This sets ->d_revalidate always, and returns 1 for positive dentry. Now, we don't need to change ->d_op dynamically anymore, so this just uses sb->s_root->d_op to set ->d_op. - d_find_alias() may return DCACHE_DISCONNECTED dentry. It's not the interesting dentry there. This checks it. - Add missing LOOKUP_PARENT check. We don't need to drop the valid negative dentry for (LOOKUP_CREATE | LOOKUP_PARENT) lookup. - For consistent filename on creation path, this drops negative dentry if we can't see intent.

2008-11-06ext3: wait on all pending commits in ext3_sync_fsArthur Jones1-6/+5
In ext3_sync_fs, we only wait for a commit to finish if we started it, but there may be one already in progress which will not be synced. In the case of a data=ordered umount with pending long symlinks which are delayed due to a long list of other I/O on the backing block device, this causes the buffer associated with the long symlinks to not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of fsync_super. Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits, seeing the UMOUNT flag and the dirty pages are never written to the backing block device, causing long symlink corruption and exposing new or previously freed block data to userspace. This can be reproduced with a script created by Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>: #!/bin/bash umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 rm -f /mnt/test2/* dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test2/bigfile bs=1M count=512 touch /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename ln -s /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename /mnt/test2/link umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 ls /mnt/test2/ umount /mnt/test2 To ensure all commits are synced, we flush all journal commits now when sync_fs'ing ext3.

Commit 0762b8bde9729f10f8e6249809660ff2ec3ad735 moved disk_get_part() in front of recursive get on the whole disk, which caused removable devices to try disk_get_part() before rescanning after a new media is inserted, which might fail legit open attempts or give the old partition.

2008-10-30ecryptfs: fix memory corruption when storing crypto info in xattrsEric Sandeen1-7/+8
When ecryptfs allocates space to write crypto headers into, before copying it out to file headers or to xattrs, it looks at the value of crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front to determine how much space it needs. This is also used as the file offset to the actual encrypted data, so for xattr-stored crypto info, the value was zero. So, we kzalloc'd 0 bytes, and then ran off to write to that memory. (Which returned as ZERO_SIZE_PTR, so we explode quickly). The right answer is to always allocate a page to write into; the current code won't ever write more than that (this is enforced by the (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - offset) length in the call to ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set). To be explicit about this, we now send in a "max" parameter, rather than magically using PAGE_CACHE_SIZE there. Also, since the pointer we pass down the callchain eventually gets the virt_to_page() treatment, we should be using a alloc_page variant, not kzalloc (see also 7fcba054373d5dfc43d26e243a5c9b92069972ee) Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael Halcrow <mhalcrow@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-10-29[CIFS] Reduce number of socket retries in large write pathSteve French5-25/+76
CIFS in some heavy stress conditions cifs could get EAGAIN repeatedly in smb_send2 which led to repeated retries and eventually failure of large writes which could lead to data corruption. There are three changes that were suggested by various network developers: 1) convert cifs from non-blocking to blocking tcp sendmsg (we left in the retry on failure) 2) change cifs to not set sendbuf and rcvbuf size for the socket (let tcp autotune the buffer sizes since that works much better in the TCP stack now) 3) if we have a partial frame sent in smb_send2, mark the tcp session as invalid (close the socket and reconnect) so we do not corrupt the remaining part of the SMB with the beginning of the next SMB. This does not appear to hurt performance measurably and has been run in various scenarios, but it definately removes a corruption that we were seeing in some high stress test cases.

2008-10-28jbd2: Call the commit callback before the transaction could get droppedTheodore Ts'o1-4/+4
The transaction can potentially get dropped if there are no buffers that need to be written. Make sure we call the commit callback before potentially deciding to drop the transaction. Also avoid dereferencing the commit_transaction pointer in the marker for the same reason.

2008-10-27ext4: fix a bug accessing freed memory in ext4_abortHidehiro Kawai1-4/+7
Vegard Nossum reported a bug which accesses freed memory (found via kmemcheck). When journal has been aborted, ext4_put_super() calls ext4_abort() after freeing the journal_t object, and then ext4_abort() accesses it. This patch fix it.

2008-10-27proc: revert /proc/uptime to ->read_proc hookAlexey Dobriyan1-18/+20
Turned out some VMware userspace does pread(2) on /proc/uptime, but seqfiles currently don't allow pread() resulting in -ESPIPE. Seqfiles in theory can do pread(), but this can be a long story, so revert to ->read_proc until then. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11856 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
