2008-07-02Make FAT users happier by not deadlockingJonathan Corbet1-9/+1
The FAT BKL removal patch can cause deadlocks. It turns out that the new lock_super() calls are unneeded, remove them (as directed by Linus). Reported-by: "Tony Luck" <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2008-06-20Replace BKL with superblock lock in fat/msdos/vfatLinus Torvalds4-18/+26
This replaces the use of the BKL in the FAT family of filesystems with the existing superblock lock instead. The code already appears to do mostly proper locking with its own private spinlocks (and mutexes), but while the BKL could possibly have been dropped entirely, converting it to use the superblock lock (which is just a regular mutex) is the conservative thing to do. As a per-filesystem mutex, it not only won't have any of the possible latency issues related to the BKL, but the lock is obviously private to the particular filesystem instance and will thus not cause problems for entirely unrelated users like the BKL can.

2008-06-12fat: relax the permission check of fat_setattr()OGAWA Hirofumi1-17/+27
New chmod() allows only acceptable permission, and if not acceptable, it returns -EPERM. Old one allows even if it can't store permission to on disk inode. But it seems too strict for users. E.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449080: With new one, rsync couldn't create the temporary file. So, this patch allows like old one, but now it doesn't change the permission if it can't store, and it returns 0. Also, this patch fixes missing check.

2008-04-28FAT_VALID_MEDIA(): remove pointless testAndrew Morton1-1/+1
The on-disk media specification field in FAT is only 8-bits, so testing for <=0xff is pointless, and can generate a "comparison is always true due to limited range of data type" warning. While we're there, convert FAT_VALID_MEDIA() into a C function - the present implementation is buggy: it generates either one or two references to its argument.

2008-02-06fs/fat/: refine chmod checksJan Engelhardt1-3/+44
Prohibit mode changes in non-quiet mode that cannot be stored reliably with the on-disk format. Suppose a vfat filesystem is mounted with umask=0 and [not-quiet]. Then all files will have mode 0777. Trying to change the owner will fail, because fat does not know about owners or groups. chmod 0770, on the other hand, will succeed, even though fat does not know about the permission triplet [user/group/other]. So this patch changes fat's not-quiet behavior so that only UNIX modes are accepted that can be mapped lossless between the fat disk format and the local system. There is only one attribute, and that is the readonly attribute, which is mapped to the UNIX write permission bit(s). chmod 0555 is therefore valid (taking away the +w bits <=> setting the readonly attribute). Since chmod 0775 and chmod 0755 is an ambiguous case as to whether to set or clear the readonly bit, these modes are also denied. In quiet mode, chmod and chown will continue to "succeed" as they did before, meaning that a subsequent stat() will temporarily return the new mode as long as the inode is not reread from disk, and chown will silently do nothing, not even return the new uid/gid in stat().

2007-05-07slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flagChristoph Lameter2-4/+2
I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by SLAB. I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is performed before each freeing of an object. I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually before the free. That also places the check near the code object manipulation of the object. Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree). There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors. This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for unimplemented flags from SLUB.

2006-10-20[PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functionsAndrew Morton1-1/+2
Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion". Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept. The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core backing-dev congestion functions. This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

2006-10-03[PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbersDavid Howells1-1/+1
These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace automatically where the arch supports it. Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and so overlaps occur. This patch: Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace. The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then error EOVERFLOW will be issued. Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented. Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to. Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a 32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the same reasons. It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.
