b93bd20cd5 [XFS] do not have XFSMNT_IDELETE as default when mounted with XFSMNT_DMAPI
XFS inodes are dynamically allocated on demand, rather than being
allocated at mkfs time. Chunks of 64 inodes are allocated at once, but
they are never freed. Over time, this can lead to filesystem
fragmentation, clusters of inodes and the btrees which point at them can
be scattered around the system.

By freeing clusters as they are emptied, we will reduce fragmentation of
the free space after removing files. This in turn will allow us to make
better placement decisions when repopulating a filesystem. The
XFSMNT_IDELETE mount option enables freeing clusters when they get empty.

Unfortunately a side effect of freeing inode clusters is that the inode
generation numbers of such inodes would be reset to zero when the cluster
is reclaimed. This is a problem in particular for a DMAPI enabled
filesystem as the the DMAPI handles need to be unique and persistent in
time. An unique DMAPI handle is built with the help of the inode
generation number. When the last one is prematurely reset by an inode
cluster reclaim, there is a high probability of different generation
inodes to end up having identical DMAPI handles.

To avoid the problem with identical DMAPI handles, the XFSMNT_IDELETE
mount option should be set as default, only if the filesystem is not
mounted with XFSMNT_DMAPI.

da353b0d64 [XFS] Radix tree based inode caching
One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing it's incore
inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default hash sizes chosen can
only ever be a tradeoff between memory consumption and the maximum
realistic size of the cache.

As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a filesystem
needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize mount option to
allow decent scalability with inode cache operations.

A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is based
on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain conditions (sparse
cluster cache population) this can become a limitation long before the
inode hash is causing issues.

The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash and
replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability limitations of the
hashes. It also reduces the size of the inodes by 3 pointers....

051e7cd44a [XFS] use filldir internally
Currently xfs has a rather complicated internal scheme to allow for
different directory formats in IRIX. This patch rips all code related to
this out and pushes useage of the Linux filldir callback into the lowlevel
directory code. This does not make the code any less portable because
filldir can be used to create dirents of all possible variations
(including the IRIX ones as proved by the IRIX binary emulation code under
arch/mips/).

This patch get rid of an unessecary copy in the readdir path, about 400
lines of code and one of the last two users of the uio structure.

This version is updated to deal with dmapi aswell which greatly simplifies
the get_dirattrs code. The dmapi part has been tested using the
get_dirattrs tools from the xfstest dmapi suite1 with various small and
large directories.

2bdf7cd0ba [XFS] superblock endianess annotations
Creates a new xfs_dsb_t that is __be annotated and keeps xfs_sb_t for the
incore one. xfs_xlatesb is renamed to xfs_sb_to_disk and only handles the
incore -> disk conversion. A new helper xfs_sb_from_disk handles the other
direction and doesn't need the slightly hacky table-driven approach
because we only ever read the full sb from disk.

The handling of shared r/o filesystems has been buggy on little endian
system and fixing this required shuffling around of some code in that
area.

347d1c0195 [XFS] dinode endianess annotations
Biggest bit is duplicating the dinode structure so we have one annotated for
native endianess and one for disk endianess. The other significant change
is that xfs_xlate_dinode_core is split into one helper per direction to
allow for proper annotations, everything else is trivial.

As a sidenode splitting out the incore dinode means we can move it into
xfs_inode.h in a later patch and severely improving on the include hell in
xfs.

49ee6c911f [XFS] Fix a potential NULL pointer deref in XFS on failed mount.
If we fail to open the the log device buftarg, we can fall through to
error handling code that fails to check for a NULL log device buftarg
before calling xfs_free_buftarg().

This patch fixes the issue by checking mp->m_logdev_targp against NULL in
xfs_unmountfs_close() and doing the proper xfs_blkdev_put(logdev); and
xfs_blkdev_put(rtdev); on (!mp->m_rtdev_targp) in xfs_mount().

Discovered by the Coverity checker.

never a very good gauge as it's looking at global memory, but deciding on
sizing per-filesystem; no account is made of the total number of

For now just take the largest "default" case, as was set for machines with
>400MB - 8 x 32k buffers. This can always be tuned higher or lower with
mount options if necessary. Removes one more user of xfs_physmem.

This finishes the rename of CONFIG_USB_OHCI to CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD, which

working anyway for most people got forgotten.

[Ralf: Paolo's original patch didn't fix the module case, Florian's patch

a200ee182a mm: set_page_dirty_balance() vs ->page_mkwrite()
All the current page_mkwrite() implementations also set the page dirty. Which
results in the set_page_dirty_balance() call to _not_ call balance, because the
page is already found dirty.

This allows us to dirty a _lot_ of pages without ever hitting
balance_dirty_pages().  Not good (tm).

Force a balance call if ->page_mkwrite() was successful.

bf0b48dfc3 [IPv6]: Fix ICMPv6 redirect handling with target multicast address
When the ICMPv6 Target address is multicast, Linux processes the 
redirect instead of dropping it.  The problem is in this code in 
ndisc_redirect_rcv():

         if (ipv6_addr_equal(dest, target)) {
                 on_link = 1;
         } else if (!(ipv6_addr_type(target) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL)) {
                 ND_PRINTK2(KERN_WARNING
                            "ICMPv6 Redirect: target address is not 
link-local.\n");
                 return;
         }

This second check will succeed if the Target address is, for example, 
FF02::1 because it has link-local scope.  Instead, it should be checking 
if it's a unicast link-local address, as stated in RFC 2461/4861 Section 
8.1:

       - The ICMP Target Address is either a link-local address (when
         redirected to a router) or the same as the ICMP Destination
         Address (when redirected to the on-link destination).

I know this doesn't explicitly say unicast link-local address, but it's 
implied.

This bug is preventing Linux kernels from achieving IPv6 Logo Phase II 
certification because of a recent error that was found in the TAHI test 
suite - Neighbor Disovery suite test 206 (v6LC.2.3.6_G) had the 
multicast address in the Destination field instead of Target field, so 
we were passing the test.  This won't be the case anymore.

The patch below fixes this problem, and also fixes ndisc_send_redirect() 
to not send an invalid redirect with a multicast address in the Target 
field.  I re-ran the TAHI Neighbor Discovery section to make sure Linux 
passes all 245 tests now.

48611c47d0 [TCP]: Fix fastpath_cnt_hint when GSO skb is partially ACKed
When only GSO skb was partially ACKed, no hints are reset,
therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can
corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have
non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often
that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because
fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue
eventually anyway.

In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed,
the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for
fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore),
thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

291041e935 fix bogus reporting of signals by audit
Async signals should not be reported as sent by current in audit log.  As
it is, we call audit_signal_info() too early in check_kill_permission().
Note that check_kill_permission() has that test already - it needs to know
if it should apply current-based permission checks.  So the solution is to
move the call of audit_signal_info() between those.

Bogosity in question is easily reproduced - add a rule watching for e.g.
kill(2) from specific process (so that audit_signal_info() would not
short-circuit to nothing), say load_policy, watch the bogus OBJ_PID entry
in audit logs claiming that write(2) on selinuxfs file issued by
load_policy(8) had somehow managed to send a signal to syslogd...
