2010-03-139p: Skip check for mandatory locks when unlockingSachin Prabhu1-1/+1
While investigating a bug, I came across a possible bug in v9fs. The problem is similar to the one reported for NFS by ASANO Masahiro in http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/12/21/334. v9fs_file_lock() will skip locks on file which has mode set to 02666. This is a problem in cases where the mode of the file is changed after a process has obtained a lock on the file. Such a lock will be skipped during unlock and the machine will end up with a BUG in locks_remove_flock(). v9fs_file_lock() should skip the check for mandatory locks when unlocking a file.

2010-03-12anon_inodes: mark the anon inode privateEric Paris1-0/+1
Inotify was switched to use anon_inode instead of its own private filesystem which only had one inode in commit c44dcc56d2b5c7 "switch inotify_user to anon_inode" The problem with this is that now the inotify inode is not a distinct inode which can be managed by LSMs. userspace tools which use inotify were allowed to use the inotify inode but may not have had permission to do read/write type operations on the anon_inode. After looking at the anon_inode and its users it looks like the best solution is to just mark the anon_inode as S_PRIVATE so the security system will ignore it.

2010-03-12fs/ufs: recognize Solaris-specific file system stateAlex Viskovatoff2-0/+9
Recent releases of Solaris set the fs_clean state of an unmounted UFS file system as FSLOG ("logging fs"). However, the Linux kernel currently does not recognize the value which represents this state. Thus, attempting to mount such a file system rw produces the message kernel: ufs_read_super: can't grok fs_clean 0xfffffffd and the file system is mounted read-only. This patch makes the kernel recognize that value.

2010-03-12fs: buffer_head: remove kmem_cache constructor to reduce memory usage under slubRichard Kennedy1-11/+2
When using slub, having a kmem_cache constructor forces slub to add a free pointer to the size of the cached object, which can have a significant impact to the number of small objects that can fit into a slab. As buffer_head is relatively small and we can have large numbers of them, removing the constructor is a definite win. On x86_64 removing the constructor gives me 39 objects/slab, 3 more than without the patch. And on x86_32 73 objects/slab, which is 9 more. As alloc_buffer_head() already initializes each new object there is very little difference in actual code run.

2010-03-11GFS2: Allow the number of committed revokes to temporarily be negativeBenjamin Marzinski2-3/+2
GFS2 tracks the number of revokes and unrevokes that are part of committed transactions via sd_log_commited_revoke. It is possible for one process to add revokes during its transaction, while another process unrevokes them during its transaction. If the second process finishes its transaction first, sd_log_commited_revoke will be decremented by the number of unrevokes that the second process did, without first being incremented by the number of revokes the first process did. This is fine, since all started transactions must be completed before the journal can be flushed. However, sd_log_commited_revoke is an unsigned integer, and log_refund() causes an assertion failure if it would go negative at the end of a transaction. This patch makes sd_log_commited_revoke a signed integer and allows it to go negative. __gfs2_log_flush() still checks that it mataches the actual number of revokes.

2010-03-09udf: Fix unalloc space handling in udf_update_inodeJan Kara1-14/+14

Fix the problem by checking appropriate in memory flag instead. Also cleanup the function a bit along the way - most importantly lock buffer when modifying its contents, check for buffer_write_io_error instead of !buffer_uptodate, etc..

2010-03-07sysfs: Serialize updates to the vfs inodeEric W. Biederman1-4/+4
The vfs depends upon filesystem methods to update the vfs inode. Sysfs adds to the normal number of places where the vfs inode is updated by also updatng the vfs inode in sysfs_refresh_inode. Typically the inode mutex is used to serialize updates to the vfs inode, but grabbing the inode mutex in sysfs_permission and sysfs_getattr causes deadlocks, because sometimes the vfs calls those operations with the inode mutex held. Therefore sysfs can not use the inode mutex to serial updates to the vfs inode. The sysfs_mutex is acquired in all of the routines where sysfs updates the vfs inode, and with a small change we can consistently protext sysfs vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex. To protect the sysfs vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex simply requires extending the scope of sysfs_mutex in sysfs_setattr over inode_setattr, and over inode_change_ok (so we have an unchanging inode when we perform the check).

2010-03-07sysfs: Use one lockdep class per sysfs attribute.Eric W. Biederman1-2/+5
Acknowledge that the logical sysfs rwsem has one instance per sysfs attribute with different locking depencencies for different attributes. There is a sysfs idiom where writing to one sysfs file causes the addition or removal of other sysfs files. Lumping all of the sysfs attributes together in one lock class causes lockdep to generate lots of false positives. This introduces the requirement that non-static sysfs attributes need to be initialized with sysfs_attr_init or sysfs_bin_attr_init. Strictly speaking this requirement only exists when lockdep is enabled, and when lockdep is enabled we get a bit fat warning if this requirement is not met. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

It turns out that holding an active reference on a directory is pointless. The purpose of the active references are to allows us to block when removing sysfs entries that have custom methods so we don't remove modules while running modular code and to keep those custom methods from accessing data structures after the files have been removed. Further sysfs_remove_dir remove all elements in the directory before removing the directory itself, so there is no chance we will remove a directory with active children. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2010-03-07sysfs: Cache the last sysfs_dirent to improve readdir scalability v2Eric W. Biederman1-22/+60
When sysfs_readdir stops short we now cache the next sysfs_dirent to return to user space in filp->private_data. There is no impact on the rest of sysfs by doing this and in the common case it allows us to pick up exactly where we left off with no seeking. Additionally I drop and regrab the sysfs_mutex around filldir to avoid a page fault abritrarily increasing the hold time on the sysfs_mutex. v2: Returned to using INT_MAX as the EOF condition. seekdir is ambiguous unless all directory entries have a unique f_pos value.

2010-03-07sysfs: Add sysfs_add/remove_files utility functionsAndi Kleen1-0/+20
Adding/Removing a whole array of attributes is very common. Add a standard utility function to do this with a simple function call, instead of requiring drivers to open code this. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2010-03-07Revert "lib: build list_sort() only if needed"Linus Torvalds1-1/+0
This reverts commit a069c266ae5fdfbf5b4aecf2c672413aa33b2504. It turns ou that not only was it missing a case (XFS) that needed it, but perhaps more importantly, people sometimes want to enable new modules that they hadn't had enabled before, and if such a module uses list_sort(), it can't easily be inserted any more. So rather than add a "select LIST_SORT" to the XFS case, just leave it compiled in. It's not all _that_ big, after all, and the inconvenience isn't worth it.
