Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
"This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1. A lot of activities this
round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.
* delayed_work combines a timer and a work item. The handling of the
timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors. delayed_work is
updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
expected.
* Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
timer+work usages. mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.
These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
and behave like timer which is executed with process context.
* A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
half-broken under certain circumstances. This problem doesn't
exist for non-reentrant workqueues. While non-reentrancy check
isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
the overhead isn't too high.
All workqueues are made non-reentrant. This removes the
distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
flush_[delayed_]_work_sync(). The former is now as strong as the
latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished
execution of any previous queueing on return.
* In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU
hotplug handling significantly.
* Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU
hotplug.
There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from
tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from
wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them."
Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts
were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new
code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts.
Tejun pointed out a few of them, I fixed a couple more.

While xfs_buftarg_shrink() is freeing buffers from the dispose list (filled with
buffers from lru list), there is a possibility to have xfs_buf_stale() racing
with it, and removing buffers from dispose list before xfs_buftarg_shrink() does
it.
This happens because xfs_buftarg_shrink() handle the dispose list without
locking and the test condition in xfs_buf_stale() checks for the buffer being in
*any* list:
if (!list_empty(&bp->b_lru))
If the buffer happens to be on dispose list, this causes the buffer counter of
lru list (btp->bt_lru_nr) to be decremented twice (once in xfs_buftarg_shrink()
and another in xfs_buf_stale()) causing a wrong account usage of the lru list.
This may cause xfs_buftarg_shrink() to return a wrong value to the memory
shrinker shrink_slab(), and such account error may also cause an underflowed
value to be returned; since the counter is lower than the current number of
items in the lru list, a decrement may happen when the counter is 0, causing
an underflow on the counter.
The fix uses a new flag field (and a new buffer flag) to serialize buffer
handling during the shrink process. The new flag field has been designed to use
btp->bt_lru_lock/unlock instead of xfs_buf_lock/unlock mechanism.
dchinner, sandeen, aquini and aris also deserve credits for this.

flush[_delayed]_work_sync() are now spurious. Mark them deprecated
and convert all users to flush[_delayed]_work().
If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are
non-reentrant and the regular flushes guarantee that the work item is
not pending or running on any CPU on return, so there's no reason to
use the sync flushes at all and they're going away.
This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

Generic code now blocks all writers from standard write paths. So we add
blocking of all writers coming from ioctl (we get a protection of ioctl against
racing remount read-only as a bonus) and convert xfs_file_aio_write() to a
non-racy freeze protection. We also keep freeze protection on transaction
start to block internal filesystem writes such as removal of preallocated

v2: Add the xfs_buf_lock to xfs_quiesce_attr().
Add explaination why xfs_buf_lock() is used to wait for write.
xfs_wait_buftarg() does not wait for the completion of the write of the
uncached superblock. This write can race with the shutdown of the log
and causes a panic if the write does not win the race.
During the log write, xfsaild_push() will lock the buffer and set the
XBF_ASYNC flag. Because the XBF_FLAG is set, complete() is not performed
on the buffer's iowait entry, we cannot call xfs_buf_iowait() to wait
for the write to complete. The buffer's lock is held until the write is
complete, so we can block on a xfs_buf_lock() request to be notified
that the write is complete.

xfsaild idle mode logic currently leads to a couple hangs:
1.) If xfsaild is rescheduled in during an incremental scan
(i.e., tout != 0) and the target has been updated since
the previous run, we can hit the new target and go into
idle mode with a still populated ail.
2.) A wake up is only issued when the target is pushed forward.
The wake up can race with xfsaild if it is currently in the
process of entering idle mode, causing future wake up
events to be lost.
These hangs have been reproduced and verified as fixed by
running xfstests 273 in a loop on a slightly modified upstream
kernel. The kernel is modified to re-enable idle mode as
previously implemented (when count == 0) and with a revert of
commit 670ce93f, which includes performance improvements that
make this harder to reproduce.
The solution, the algorithm for which has been outlined by
Dave Chinner, is to modify xfsaild to enter idle mode only when
the ail is empty and the push target has not been moved forward
since the last push.

An inode that enters xfs_inactive has been removed from all global
lists but the inode hash, and can't be recycled in xfs_iget before
it has been marked reclaimable. Thus taking the iolock in here
is not nessecary at all, and given the amount of lockdep false
positives it has triggered already I'd rather remove the locking.
The only change outside of xfs_inactive is relaxing an assert in

Pull the big VFS changes from Al Viro:
"This one is *big* and changes quite a few things around VFS. What's in there:
- the first of two really major architecture changes - death to open
intents.
The former is finally there; it was very long in making, but with
Miklos getting through really hard and messy final push in
fs/namei.c, we finally have it. Unlike his variant, this one
doesn't introduce struct opendata; what we have instead is
->atomic_open() taking preallocated struct file * and passing
everything via its fields.
Instead of returning struct file *, it returns -E... on error, 0
on success and 1 in "deal with it yourself" case (e.g. symlink
found on server, etc.).
See comments before fs/namei.c:atomic_open(). That made a lot of
goodies finally possible and quite a few are in that pile:
->lookup(), ->d_revalidate() and ->create() do not get struct
nameidata * anymore; ->lookup() and ->d_revalidate() get lookup
flags instead, ->create() gets "do we want it exclusive" flag.
With the introduction of new helper (kern_path_locked()) we are rid
of all struct nameidata instances outside of fs/namei.c; it's still
visible in namei.h, but not for long. Come the next cycle,
declaration will move either to fs/internal.h or to fs/namei.c
itself. [me, miklos, hch]
- The second major change: behaviour of final fput(). Now we have
__fput() done without any locks held by caller *and* not from deep
in call stack.
That obviously lifts a lot of constraints on the locking in there.
Moreover, it's legal now to call fput() from atomic contexts (which
has immediately simplified life for aio.c). We also don't need
anti-recursion logics in __scm_destroy() anymore.
There is a price, though - the damn thing has become partially
asynchronous. For fput() from normal process we are guaranteed
that pending __fput() will be done before the caller returns to
userland, exits or gets stopped for ptrace.
For kernel threads and atomic contexts it's done via
schedule_work(), so theoretically we might need a way to make sure
it's finished; so far only one such place had been found, but there
might be more.
There's flush_delayed_fput() (do all pending __fput()) and there's
__fput_sync() (fput() analog doing __fput() immediately). I hope
we won't need them often; see warnings in fs/file_table.c for
details. [me, based on task_work series from Oleg merged last
cycle]
- sync series from Jan
- large part of "death to sync_supers()" work from Artem; the only
bits missing here are exofs and ext4 ones. As far as I understand,
those are going via the exofs and ext4 trees resp.; once they are
in, we can put ->write_super() to the rest, along with the thread
calling it.

discontigous buffer in separate buffer format structures. This means log
recovery will recover all the changes on a per segment basis without
requiring any knowledge of the fact that it was logged from a
compound buffer.
To do this, we need to be able to determine what buffer segment any
given offset into the compound buffer sits over. This enables us to
translate the dirty bitmap in the number of separate buffer format
structures required.
We also need to be able to determine the number of bitmap elements
that a given buffer segment has, as this determines the size of the
buffer format structure. Hence we need to be able to determine the
both the start offset into the buffer and the length of a given
segment to be able to calculate this.
With this information, we can preallocate, build and format the
correct log vector array for each segment in a compound buffer to
appear exactly the same as individually logged buffers in the log.

To support discontiguous buffers in the buffer cache, we need to
separate the cache index variables from the I/O map. While this is
currently a 1:1 mapping, discontiguous buffer support will break
this relationship.
However, for caching purposes, we can still treat them the same as a
contiguous buffer - the block number of the first block and the
length of the buffer - as that is still a unique representation.
Also, the only way we will ever access the discontiguous regions of
buffers is via bulding the complete buffer in the first place, so
using the initial block number and entire buffer length is a sane
way to index the buffers.
Add a block mapping vector construct to the xfs_buf and use it in
the places where we are doing IO instead of the current
b_bn/b_length variables.

The struct xfs_buf_log_format wants to think the dirty bitmap is
variable sized. In fact, it is variable size on disk simply due to
the way we map it from the in-memory structure, but we still just
use a fixed size memory allocation for the in-memory structure.
Hence it makes no sense to set the function up as a variable sized
structure when we already know it's maximum size, and we always
allocate it as such. Simplify the structure by making the dirty
bitmap a fixed sized array and just using the size of the structure
for the allocation size.
This will make it much simpler to allocate and manipulate an array
of format structures for discontiguous buffer support.
The previous struct xfs_buf_log_item size according to
/proc/slabinfo was 224 bytes. pahole doesn't give the same size
because of the variable size definition. With this modification,
pahole reports the same as /proc/slabinfo:
/* size: 224, cachelines: 4, members: 6 */
Because the xfs_buf_log_item size is now determined by the maximum
supported block size we introduce a dependency on xfs_alloc_btree.h.
Avoid this dependency by moving the idefines for the maximum block
sizes supported to xfs_types.h with all the other max/min type
defines to avoid any new dependencies.
