0b175a7e68 [PATCH] Fix the fdtable freeing in the case of vmalloced fdset/arrays
Noted by David Miller:

  "The bug is that free_fd_array() takes a "num" argument, but when
   calling it from __free_fdtable() we're instead passing in the size in
   bytes (ie.  "num * sizeof(struct file *)")."

Yes it is a bug. I think I messed it up while merging newer
changes with an older version where I was using size in bytes
to optimize.

2fd4ef85e0 [PATCH] error path in setup_arg_pages() misses vm_unacct_memory()
Pavel Emelianov and Kirill Korotaev observe that fs and arch users of
security_vm_enough_memory tend to forget to vm_unacct_memory when a
failure occurs further down (typically in setup_arg_pages variants).

These are all users of insert_vm_struct, and that reservation will only
be unaccounted on exit if the vma is marked VM_ACCOUNT: which in some
cases it is (hidden inside VM_STACK_FLAGS) and in some cases it isn't.

So x86_64 32-bit and ppc64 vDSO ELFs have been leaking memory into
Committed_AS each time they're run.  But don't add VM_ACCOUNT to them,
it's inappropriate to reserve against the very unlikely case that gdb
be used to COW a vDSO page - we ought to do something about that in
do_wp_page, but there are yet other inconsistencies to be resolved.

The safe and economical way to fix this is to let insert_vm_struct do
the security_vm_enough_memory check when it finds VM_ACCOUNT is set.

And the MIPS irix_brk has been calling security_vm_enough_memory before
calling do_brk which repeats it, doubly accounting and so also leaking.
Remove that, and all the fs and arch calls to security_vm_enough_memory:
give it a less misleading name later on.

fb085cf1d4 [PATCH] Fix fs/exec.c:788 (de_thread()) BUG_ON
It turns out that the BUG_ON() in fs/exec.c: de_thread() is unreliable
and can trigger due to the test itself being racy.

de_thread() does
 	while (atomic_read(&sig->count) > count) {
	}
	.....
	.....
	BUG_ON(!thread_group_empty(current));

but release_task does
	write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock)
	__exit_signal
		(this is where atomic_dec(&sig->count) is run)
	__exit_sighand
	__unhash_process
		takes write lock on tasklist_lock
		remove itself out of PIDTYPE_TGID list
	write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock)

so there's a clear (although small) window between the
atomic_dec(&sig->count) and the actual PIDTYPE_TGID unhashing of the
thread.

And actually there is no need for all threads to have exited at this
point, so we simply kill the BUG_ON.

Big thanks to Marc Lehmann who provided the test-case.

9f03783ce5 [PATCH] reiserfs: use mark_inode_dirty instead of reiserfs_update_sd
reiserfs should use mark_inode_dirty during reiserfs_file_write and
reiserfs_commit_write.  This makes sure the inode is properly flagged as
dirty, which is used during O_SYNC to decide when to trigger log commits.

This patch also removes the O_SYNC check from reiserfs_commit_write, since
that gets dealt with properly at higher layers once we start using
mark_inode_dirty.

a1a5b3d93c [PATCH] open returns ENFILE but creates file anyway
When open(O_CREAT) is called and the error, ENFILE, is returned, the file
may be created anyway.  This is counter intuitive, against the SUS V3
specification, and may cause applications to misbehave if they are not
coded correctly to handle this semantic.  The SUS V3 specification
explicitly states "No files shall be created or modified if the function
returns -1.".

The error, ENFILE, is used to indicate the system wide open file table is
full and no more file structs can be allocated.

This is due to an ordering problem.  The entry in the directory is created
before the file struct is allocated.  If the allocation for the file struct
fails, then the system call must return an error, but the directory entry
was already created and can not be safely removed.

The solution to this situation is relatively easy.  The file struct should
be allocated before the directory entry is created.  If the allocation
fails, then the error can be returned directly.  If the creation of the
directory entry fails, then the file struct can be easily freed.

This patch implements a task state bit (TASK_NONINTERACTIVE), which can be
used by blocking points to mark the task's wait as "non-interactive".  This
does not mean the task will be considered a CPU-hog - the wait will simply
not have an effect on the waiting task's priority - positive or negative
alike.  Right now only pipe_wait() will make use of it, because it's a
common source of not-so-interactive waits (kernel compilation jobs, etc.).

fb1c8f93d8 [PATCH] spinlock consolidation
This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van
de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code.  It does the following
things:

 - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code

 - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files

 - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock
   features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code.

 - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.

Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code,
located in lib/spinlock_debug.c.  (previously we had one SMP debugging
variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)

Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track
write-owners.  There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.
All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard
spin/rwlock lockups.

The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary
subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now
lives in the generic headers:

 include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h       |   16
 include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h     |   16

I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files,
making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is:

   SMP                         |  UP
   ----------------------------|-----------------------------------
   asm/spinlock_types_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_types_up.h
   linux/spinlock_types.h      |  linux/spinlock_types.h
   asm/spinlock_smp.h          |  linux/spinlock_up.h
   linux/spinlock_api_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_api_up.h
   linux/spinlock.h            |  linux/spinlock.h

/*
 * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files:
 *
 * on SMP builds:
 *
 *  asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the
 *                        initializers
 *
 *  linux/spinlock_types.h:
 *                        defines the generic type and initializers
 *

 *                        implementations, mostly inline assembly code
 *
 *   (also included on UP-debug builds:)
 *
 *  linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:
 *                        contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs.
 *
 *  linux/spinlock.h:     builds the final spin_*() APIs.
 *
 * on UP builds:
 *
 *  linux/spinlock_type_up.h:
 *                        contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type.
 *                        (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds)
 *
 *  linux/spinlock_types.h:
 *                        defines the generic type and initializers
 *
 *  linux/spinlock_up.h:
 *                        contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. version of UP
 *                        builds. (which are NOPs on non-debug, non-preempt
 *                        builds)
 *
 *   (included on UP-non-debug builds:)
 *

be mostly fine.

From: Grant Grundler <grundler@parisc-linux.org>

  Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU).
  Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested).  I did not try to build
  non-SMP kernels.  That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary.

  I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t.  Doing so avoids
  some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files.  Those particular locks
  are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code.  I do NOT
  expect any new issues to arise with them.

 If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will
  need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops
  that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW
  (load and clear word).

7c352bdf04 [PATCH] FUSE: don't allow restarting of system calls
This patch removes ability to interrupt and restart operations while there
hasn't been any side-effect.

The reason: applications.  There are some apps it seems that generate
signals at a fast rate.  This means, that if the operation cannot make
enough progress between two signals, it will be restarted for ever.  This
bug actually manifested itself with 'krusader' trying to open a file for
writing under sshfs.  Thanks to Eduard Czimbalmos for the report.

The problem can be solved just by making open() uninterruptible, because in
this case it was the truncate operation that slowed down the progress.  But
it's better to solve this by simply not allowing interrupts at all (except
SIGKILL), because applications don't expect file operations to be
interruptible anyway.  As an added bonus the code is simplified somewhat.

87729a5514 [PATCH] FUSE: tighten check for processes allowed access
This patch tightens the check for allowing processes to access non-privileged
mounts.  The rational is that the filesystem implementation can control the
behavior or get otherwise unavailable information of the filesystem user.  If
the filesystem user process has the same uid, gid, and is not suid or sgid
application, then access is safe.  Otherwise access is not allowed unless the
"allow_other" mount option is given (for which policy is controlled by the
userspace mount utility).

Thanks to everyone linux-fsdevel, especially Martin Mares who helped uncover
problems with the previous approach.

d8a5ba4545 [PATCH] FUSE - core
This patch adds FUSE core.

This contains the following files:

      clear_inode, put_super, show_options)
    - registers FUSE filesystem

 o fuse_i.h
    - private header file

Requirements
============

 The most important difference between orinary filesystems and FUSE is
 the fact, that the filesystem data/metadata is provided by a userspace
 process run with the privileges of the mount "owner" instead of the
 kernel, or some remote entity usually running with elevated
 privileges.

 The security implication of this is that a non-privileged user must
 not be able to use this capability to compromise the system.  Obvious
 requirements arising from this are:

  - mount owner should not be able to get elevated privileges with the
    help of the mounted filesystem

  - mount owner should not be able to induce undesired behavior in
    other users' or the super user's processes

  - mount owner should not get illegitimate access to information from
    other users' and the super user's processes

 These are currently ensured with the following constraints:

  1) mount is only allowed to directory or file which the mount owner
    can modify without limitation (write access + no sticky bit for
    directories)

  2) nosuid,nodev mount options are forced

  3) any process running with fsuid different from the owner is denied
     all access to the filesystem

 1) and 2) are ensured by the "fusermount" mount utility which is a
    setuid root application doing the actual mount operation.

 3) is ensured by a check in the permission() method in kernel

 I started thinking about doing 3) in a different way because Christoph
 H. made a big deal out of it, saying that FUSE is unacceptable into
 mainline in this form.

 The suggested use of private namespaces would be OK, but in their
 current form have many limitations that make their use impractical (as
 discussed in this thread).

 Suggested improvements that would address these limitations:

   - implement shared subtrees

   - allow a process to join an existing namespace (make namespaces
     first-class objects)

   - implement the namespace creation/joining in a PAM module

 With all that in place the check of owner against current->fsuid may
 be removed from the FUSE kernel module, without compromising the
 security requirements.

 Suid programs still interesting questions, since they get access even
 to the private namespace causing some information leak (exact
 order/timing of filesystem operations performed), giving some
 ptrace-like capabilities to unprivileged users.  BTW this problem is
 not strictly limited to the namespace approach, since suid programs
 setting fsuid and accessing users' files will succeed with the current
 approach too.

93fa58cb83 [PATCH] v9fs: Documentation, Makefiles, Configuration
OVERVIEW

V9FS is a distributed file system for Linux which provides an
implementation of the Plan 9 resource sharing protocol 9P.  It can be
used to share all sorts of resources: static files, synthetic file servers
(such as /proc or /sys), devices, and application file servers (such as
FUSE).

BACKGROUND

Plan 9 (http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9) is a research operating
system and associated applications suite developed by the Computing
Science Research Center of AT&T Bell Laboratories (now a part of
Lucent Technologies), the same group that developed UNIX , C, and C++.
Plan 9 was initially released in 1993 to universities, and then made
generally available in 1995. Its core operating systems code laid the
foundation for the Inferno Operating System released as a product by
Lucent Bell-Labs in 1997. The Inferno venture was the only commercial
embodiment of Plan 9 and is currently maintained as a product by Vita
Nuova (http://www.vitanuova.com). After updated releases in 2000 and
2002, Plan 9 was open-sourced under the OSI approved Lucent Public
License in 2003.

The Plan 9 project was started by Ken Thompson and Rob Pike in 1985.
Their intent was to explore potential solutions to some of the
shortcomings of UNIX in the face of the widespread use of high-speed
networks to connect machines. In UNIX, networking was an afterthought
and UNIX clusters became little more than a network of stand-alone
systems. Plan 9 was designed from first principles as a seamless
distributed system with integrated secure network resource sharing.
Applications and services were architected in such a way as to allow
for implicit distribution across a cluster of systems. Configuring an
environment to use remote application components or services in place
of their local equivalent could be achieved with a few simple command
line instructions. For the most part, application implementations
operated independent of the location of their actual resources.

Commercial operating systems haven't changed much in the 20 years
since Plan 9 was conceived. Network and distributed systems support is
provided by a patchwork of middle-ware, with an endless number of
packages supplying pieces of the puzzle. Matters are complicated by
the use of different complicated protocols for individual services,
and separate implementations for kernel and application resources.
The V9FS project (http://v9fs.sourceforge.net) is an attempt to bring
Plan 9's unified approach to resource sharing to Linux and other
operating systems via support for the 9P2000 resource sharing
protocol.

V9FS HISTORY

V9FS was originally developed by Ron Minnich and Maya Gokhale at Los
Alamos National Labs (LANL) in 1997.  In November of 2001, Greg Watson
setup a SourceForge project as a public repository for the code which
supported the Linux 2.4 kernel.

About a year ago, I picked up the initial attempt Ron Minnich had
made to provide 2.6 support and got the code integrated into a 2.6.5
kernel.   I then went through a line-for-line re-write attempting to
clean-up the code while more closely following the Linux Kernel style
guidelines.  I co-authored a paper with Ron Minnich on the V9FS Linux
support including performance comparisons to NFSv3 using Bonnie and
PostMark - this paper appeared at the USENIX/FREENIX 2005
conference in April 2005:
( http://www.usenix.org/events/usenix05/tech/freenix/hensbergen.html ).

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION/REQUEST FOR COMMENTS

Our 2.6 kernel support is stabilizing and we'd like to begin pursuing
its integration into the official kernel tree.  We would appreciate any
review, comments, critiques, and additions from this community and are
actively seeking people to join our project and help us produce
something that would be acceptable and useful to the Linux community.

STATUS

The code is reasonably stable, although there are no doubt corner cases
our regression tests haven't discovered yet.  It is in regular use by several
of the developers and has been tested on x86 and PowerPC
(32-bit and 64-bit) in both small and large (LANL cluster) deployments.
Our current regression tests include fsx, bonnie, and postmark.

It was our intention to keep things as simple as possible for this
release -- trying to focus on correctness within the core of the
protocol support versus a rich set of features.  For example: a more
complete security model and cache layer are in the road map, but
excluded from this release.   Additionally, we have removed support for
mmap operations at Al Viro's request.

PERFORMANCE

Detailed performance numbers and analysis are included in the FREENIX
paper, but we show comparable performance to NFSv3 for large file
operations based on the Bonnie benchmark, and superior performance for
many small file operations based on the PostMark benchmark.   Somewhat
preliminary graphs (from the FREENIX paper) are available
(http://v9fs.sourceforge.net/perf/index.html).

RESOURCES

The source code is available in a few different forms:

tarballs: http://v9fs.sf.net
CVSweb: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/v9fs/linux-9p/
CVS: :pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/v9fs/linux-9p
Git: rsync://v9fs.graverobber.org/v9fs (webgit: http://v9fs.graverobber.org)
9P: tcp!v9fs.graverobber.org!6564

The user-level server is available from either the Plan 9 distribution
or from http://v9fs.sf.net
Other support applications are still being developed, but preliminary
version can be downloaded from sourceforge.

Documentation on the protocol has historically been the Plan 9 Man
pages (http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sys/man/5/INDEX.html), but there is
an effort under way to write a more complete Internet-Draft style
specification (http://v9fs.sf.net/rfc).

There are a couple of mailing lists supporting v9fs, but the most used
is v9fs-developer@lists.sourceforge.net -- please direct/cc your
comments there so the other v9fs contibutors can participate in the
conversation.  There is also an IRC channel: irc://freenode.net/#v9fs

ab2af1f500 [PATCH] files: files struct with RCU
Patch to eliminate struct files_struct.file_lock spinlock on the reader side
and use rcu refcounting rcuref_xxx api for the f_count refcounter.  The
updates to the fdtable are done by allocating a new fdtable structure and
setting files->fdt to point to the new structure.  The fdtable structure is
protected by RCU thereby allowing lock-free lookup.  For fd arrays/sets that
are vmalloced, we use keventd to free them since RCU callbacks can't sleep.  A
global list of fdtable to be freed is not scalable, so we use a per-cpu list.
If keventd is already handling the current cpu's work, we use a timer to defer
queueing of that work.

Since the last publication, this patch has been re-written to avoid using
explicit memory barriers and use rcu_assign_pointer(), rcu_dereference()
premitives instead.  This required that the fd information is kept in a
separate structure (fdtable) and updated atomically.

In order for the RCU to work, the file table array, sets and their sizes must
be updated atomically.  Instead of ensuring this through too many memory
barriers, we put the arrays and their sizes in a separate structure.  This
patch takes the first step of putting the file table elements in a separate
structure fdtable that is embedded withing files_struct.  It also changes all
the users to refer to the file table using files_fdtable() macro.  Subsequent
applciation of RCU becomes easier after this.

fef266580e [PATCH] update filesystems for new delete_inode behavior
Update the file systems in fs/ implementing a delete_inode() callback to
call truncate_inode_pages().  One implementation note: In developing this
patch I put the calls to truncate_inode_pages() at the very top of those
filesystems delete_inode() callbacks in order to retain the previous
behavior.  I'm guessing that some of those could probably be optimized.

e85b565233 [PATCH] move truncate_inode_pages() into ->delete_inode()
Allow file systems supporting ->delete_inode() to call
truncate_inode_pages() on their own.  OCFS2 wants this so it can query the
cluster before making a final decision on whether to wipe an inode from
disk or not.  In some corner cases an inode marked on the local node via
voting may not actually get orphaned.  A good example is node death before
the transaction moving the inode to the orphan dir commits to the journal.
Without this patch, the truncate_inode_pages() call in
generic_delete_inode() would discard valid data for such inodes.

During earlier discussion in the 2.6.13 merge plan thread, Christoph
Hellwig indicated that other file systems might also find this useful.

IMHO, the best solution would be to just allow ->drop_inode() to do the
cluster query but it seems that would require a substantial reworking of
that section of the code.  Assuming it is safe to call write_inode_now() in
ocfs2_delete_inode() for those inodes which won't actually get wiped, this
solution should get us by for now.

Trivial testing of this patch (and a related OCFS2 update) has shown this
to avoid the corruption I'm seeing.

0bb6fcc13a [PATCH] pivot_root() circular reference fix
Fix http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4857

When pivot_root is called from an init script in an initramfs environment,
it causes a circular reference in the mount tree.

The cause of this is that pivot_root() is not prepared to handle pivoting
an unattached mount.  In an initramfs environment, rootfs is the root of
the namespace, and so it is not attached.

This patch fixes this and related problems, by returning -EINVAL if either
the current root or the new root is detached.

and we have sent wrong data to disk...  We now clean the dirty buffer flag
under buffer lock in all cases and hence we know that whenever a buffer is
starting to be journaled we either finish the pending write-out before
attaching a buffer to a transaction or we won't write the buffer until the
transaction is going to be committed.

The test in jbd_unexpected_dirty_buffer() is redundant - remove it.
Furthermore we have to clear the buffer dirty bit under the buffer lock to
prevent races with buffer write-out (and hence prevent returning a buffer with
IO happening).

cbf0d27a13 [PATCH] kjournald: missing JFS_UNMOUNT check
It seems that kjournald() may be missing a check of the JFS_UNMOUNT flag
before calling schedule().  This showed up in testing of OCFS2 recovery
where our recovery thread would hang in journal_kill_thread() called from
journal_destroy() because kjournald never got a chance to read the flag to
shut down before the schedule().

Zach pointed out the missing check which led me to hack up this trivial
patch.  It's been tested many times now and I have yet to reproduce the
hang, which was happening very regularly before.

<mild rant>
I'm guessing that we could really use some wait_event() calls with helper
functions in, well, most of jbd these days which would make a ton of the
wait code there vastly cleaner.
</mild rant>

As for why this doesn't happen in ext3 (or OCFS2 during normal
mount/unmount of the local nodes journal), I think it may that the specific
timing of events in the ocfs2 recovery thread exposes a race there.
Because ocfs2_replay_journal() is only interested in playing back the
journal, initialization and shutdown happen very quicky with no other
metadata put into that specific journal.

a97c9bf33f [PATCH] fix cramfs making duplicate entries in inode cache
Every time cramfs_lookup() is called to lookup and inode for a dentry,
get_cramfs_inode() will allocate a new inode without checking to see if that
inode already exists in the inode cache.

This is fine the first time, but if the dentry cache entry(ies) associated
with that inode are aged out, but the inode entry is not aged out (which can
be quite common if the inode has buffer cache linked to it), cramfs_lookup()
will be called again and another inode will be allocated and added to the
inode cache creating a duplicate in the inode cache.

The big issue here is that the buffers associated with each inode cache entry
are not shared between the duplicates!

The older inode entries are now orphaned as no dentry points to it and won't
be freed until the buffer cache assoicated with them are first freed.  The
newest entry will have to create all new buffer cache for each part of its
file as the old buffer cache is now orphaned as well.

Patch below fixes this by making get_cramfs_inode() use the inode cache before
blindly creating a new entry every time.  This eliminates the duplicate inodes
and duplicate buffer cache.

f3ef6f63e5 [PATCH] Speedup FAT filesystem directory reads
OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp>

This speeds up directory reads for large FAT partitions, if the buffercache
has to be filled from the drive. Following values were taken from:

        $ time find path_to_freshly_mounted_fat > /dev/null

on an otherwise idle system.

FAT with 16KB Clusters on IDE attached drive:   Factor  2
FAT with 32KB Clusters on USB2 attached drive:  Factor 10 (!)
Its less than 1/10 slower, if the buffercache is uptodate.

The patch introduces the new function fat_dir_readahead().

fat_dir_readahead() calls sb_breadahead() to readahead a whole cluster,
if the requested sector is the first one in a cluster.
It is usefull to do this, because on FAT directories occupy whole
clusters, with the exception of FAT12/FAT16 root dirs.

Readahead is only done, if the cluster's first sector is not uptodate
to avoid overhead, when the buffer cache is already uptodate.
Note that under memory pressure, the maximal byte count wasted
(read: has to be red from disk twice) is 1 cluster's size.  Thats 64KB.

fat_dir_readahead() is called from fat__get_entry().

There is also an unrelated cleanup at one spot:

        if (bh)
                brelse(bh);

is replaced with:

        brelse(bh);

brelse() can handle NULL pointer arguments by itself.

f35279d3f7 [PATCH] sunrpc: cache_register can use wrong module reference
When registering an RPC cache, cache_register() always sets the owner as the
sunrpc module.  However, there are RPC caches owned by other modules.  With
the incorrect owner setting, the real owning module can be removed potentially
with an open reference to the cache from userspace.

For example, if one were to stop the nfs server and unmount the nfsd
filesystem, the nfsd module could be removed eventhough rpc.idmapd had
references to the idtoname and nametoid caches (i.e.
/proc/net/rpc/nfs4.<cachename>/channel is still open).  This resulted in a
system panic on one of our machines when attempting to restart the nfs
services after reloading the nfsd module.

The following patch adds a 'struct module *owner' field in struct
cache_detail.  The owner is further assigned to the struct proc_dir_entry
in cache_register() so that the module cannot be unloaded while user-space
daemons have an open reference on the associated file under /proc.

8fc2751beb [PATCH] disk quotas fail when /etc/mtab is symlinked to /proc/mounts
If /etc/mtab is a regular file all of the mount options (of a file system)
are written to /etc/mtab by the mount command.  The quota tools look there
for the quota strings for their operation.  If, however, /etc/mtab is a
symlink to /proc/mounts (a "good thing" in some environments) the tools
don't write anything - they assume the kernel will take care of things.

While the quota options are sent down to the kernel via the mount system
call and the file system codes handle them properly unfortunately there is
no code to echo the quota strings into /proc/mounts and the quota tools
fail in the symlink case.

The attached patchs modify the EXT[2|3] and JFS codes to add the necessary
hooks.  The show_options function of each file system in these patches
currently deal with only those things that seemed related to quotas;
especially in the EXT3 case more can be done (later?).

Jan Kara also noted the difficulty in moving these changes above the FS
codes responding similarly to myself to Andrew's comment about possible
VFS migration. Issue summary:

 - FS codes have to process the entire string of options anyway.

 - Only FS codes that use quotas must have a show_options function (for
   quotas to work properly) however quotas are only used in a small number
   of FS.

 - Since most of the quota using FS support other options these FS codes
   should have the a show_options function to show those options - and the
   quota echoing becomes virtually negligible.

Based on feedback I have modified my patches from the original:

   JFS a missing patch has been restored to the posting
   EXT[2|3] and JFS always use the show_options function
       - Each FS has at least one FS specific option displayed
       - QUOTA output is under a CONFIG_QUOTA ifdef
       - a follow-on patch will add a multitude of options for each FS
   EXT[2|3] and JFS "quota" is treated as "usrquota"
   EXT3 journalled data check for journalled quota removed
   EXT[2|3] mount when quota specified but not compiled in

 - no changes from my original patch.  I tested the patch and the codes
   warn but

 - still mount.  With all due respection I believe the comments
   otherwise were a

 - misread of the patch.  Please reread/test and comment.  XFS patch
   removed - the XFS team already made the necessary changes EXT3 mixing
   old and new quotas are handled differently (not purely exclusive)

 - if old and new quotas for the same type are used together the old
   type is silently depricated for compatability (e.g.  usrquota and
   usrjquota)

 - mixing of old and new quotas is an error (e.g.  usrjquota and
   grpquota)

When I first wrote the compat layer patches, I was somewhat cavalier about
the definition of compat_uid_t and compat_gid_t (or maybe I just
misunderstood :-)).  This patch makes the compat types much more consistent
with the types we are being compatible with and hopefully will fix a few
bugs along the way.

	compat type		type in compat arch
	__compat_[ug]id_t	__kernel_[ug]id_t
	__compat_[ug]id32_t	__kernel_[ug]id32_t
	compat_[ug]id_t		[ug]id_t

The difference is that compat_uid_t is always 32 bits (for the archs we
care about) but __compat_uid_t may be 16 bits on some.

e82894f84d [PATCH] relayfs
Here's the latest version of relayfs, against linux-2.6.11-mm2.  I'm hoping
you'll consider putting this version back into your tree - the previous
rounds of comment seem to have shaken out all the API issues and the number
of comments on the code itself have also steadily dwindled.

This patch is essentially the same as the relayfs redux part 5 patch, with
some minor changes based on reviewer comments.  Thanks again to Pekka
Enberg for those.  The patch size without documentation is now a little
smaller at just over 40k.  Here's a detailed list of the changes:

- removed the attribute_flags in relay open and changed it to a
  boolean specifying either overwrite or no-overwrite mode, and removed
  everything referencing the attribute flags.
- added a check for NULL names in relayfs_create_entry()
- got rid of the unnecessary multiple labels in relay_create_buf()
- some minor simplification of relay_alloc_buf() which got rid of a
  couple params
- updated the Documentation

In addition, this version (through code contained in the relay-apps tarball
linked to below, not as part of the relayfs patch) tries to make it as easy
as possible to create the cooperating kernel/user pieces of a typical and
common type of logging application, one where kernel logging is kicked off
when a user space data collection app starts and stops when the collection
app exits, with the data being automatically logged to disk in between.  To
create this type of application, you basically just include a header file
(relay-app.h, included in the relay-apps tarball) in your kernel module,
define a couple of callbacks and call an initialization function, and on
the user side call a single function that sets up and continuously monitors
the buffers, and writes data to files as it becomes available.  Channels
are created when the collection app is started and destroyed when it exits,
not when the kernel module is inserted, so different channel buffer sizes
can be specified for each separate run via command-line options.  See the
README in the relay-apps tarball for details.

Also included in the relay-apps tarball are a couple examples
demonstrating how you can use this to create quick and dirty kernel
logging/debugging applications.  They are:

- tprintk, short for 'tee printk', which temporarily puts a kprobe on
  printk() and writes a duplicate stream of printk output to a relayfs
  channel.  This could be used anywhere there's printk() debugging code
  in the kernel which you'd like to exercise, but would rather not have
  your system logs cluttered with debugging junk.  You'd probably want
  to kill klogd while you do this, otherwise there wouldn't be much
  point (since putting a kprobe on printk() doesn't change the output
  of printk()).  I've used this method to temporarily divert the packet
  logging output of the iptables LOG target from the system logs to
  relayfs files instead, for instance.

- klog, which just provides a printk-like formatted logging function
  on top of relayfs.  Again, you can use this to keep stuff out of your
  system logs if used in place of printk.

The example applications can be found here:

Normally, activate_mm() is called from exec(), and thus it used to be a
no-op because we use a completely new "MM context" on the host (for
instance, a new process), and so we didn't need to flush any "TLB entries"
(which for us are the set of memory mappings for the host process from the
virtual "RAM" file).

Kernel threads, instead, are usually handled in a different way.  So, when
for AIO we call use_mm(), things used to break and so Benjamin implemented
activate_mm().  However, that is only needed for AIO, and could slow down
exec() inside UML, so be smart: detect being called for AIO (via
PF_BORROWED_MM) and do the full flush only in that situation.

Comment also the caller so that people won't go breaking UML without
noticing.  I also rely on the caller's locks for testing current->flags.

f549d6c18c [PATCH] Generic VFS fallback for security xattrs
This patch modifies the VFS setxattr, getxattr, and listxattr code to fall
back to the security module for security xattrs if the filesystem does not
support xattrs natively.  This allows security modules to export the incore
inode security label information to userspace even if the filesystem does
not provide xattr storage, and eliminates the need to individually patch
various pseudo filesystem types to provide such access.  The patch removes
the existing xattr code from devpts and tmpfs as it is then no longer
needed.

The patch restructures the code flow slightly to reduce duplication between
the normal path and the fallback path, but this should only have one
user-visible side effect - a program may get -EACCES rather than
-EOPNOTSUPP if policy denied access but the filesystem didn't support the
operation anyway.  Note that the post_setxattr hook call is not needed in
the fallback case, as the inode_setsecurity hook call handles the incore
inode security state update directly.  In contrast, we do call fsnotify in
both cases.

e070ad49f3 [PATCH] add /proc/pid/smaps
Add a "smaps" entry to /proc/pid: show howmuch memory is resident in each
mapping.

People that want to perform a memory consumption analysing can use it
mainly if someone needs to figure out which libraries can be reduced for
embedded systems.  So the new features are the physical size of shared and
clean [or dirty]; private and clean [or dirty].

Take a look the example below:

(Includes a cleanup from "Richard Purdie" <rpurdie@rpsys.net>)

From: Torsten Foertsch <torsten.foertsch@gmx.net>

show_smap calls first show_map and then prints its additional information to
the seq_file.  show_map checks if all it has to print fits into the buffer and
if yes marks the current vma as written.  While that is correct for show_map
it is not for show_smap.  Here the vma should be marked as written only after
the additional information is also written.

The attached patch cures the problem.  It moves the functionality of the
show_map function to a new function show_map_internal that is called with an
additional struct mem_size_stats* argument.  Then show_map calls
show_map_internal with NULL as struct mem_size_stats* whereas show_smap calls
it with a real pointer.  Now the final

	if (m->count < m->size)  /* vma is copied successfully */
		m->version = (vma != get_gate_vma(task))? vma->vm_start: 0;

is done only if the whole entry fits into the buffer.

6e21c8f145 [PATCH] /proc/<pid>/numa_maps to show on which nodes pages reside
This patch was recently discussed on linux-mm:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=112085728500002&r=1&w=2

I inherited a large code base from Ray for page migration.  There was a
small patch in there that I find to be very useful since it allows the
display of the locality of the pages in use by a process.  I reworked that
patch and came up with a /proc/<pid>/numa_maps that gives more information
about the vma's of a process.  numa_maps is indexes by the start address
found in /proc/<pid>/maps.  F.e.  with this patch you can see the page use
of the "getty" process:

getty uses ld.so.  The first vma is the code segment which is used by 43
other processes and the pages are evenly distributed over the 4 nodes.

The second vma is the process specific data portion for ld.so.  This is
only one page.

The display format is:

<startaddress>	 Links to information in /proc/<pid>/map
<memory policy>  This can be "default" "interleave={}", "prefer=<node>" or "bind={<zones>}"
MaxRef=		<maximum reference to a page in this vma>
Pages=		<Nr of pages in use>
Mapped=		<Nr of pages with mapcount >
Anon=		<nr of anonymous pages>
Nx=		<Nr of pages on Node x>

The content of the proc-file is self-evident.  If this would be tied into
the sparsemem system then the contents of this file would not be too
useful.

32fb9b57ae [XFS] Fix up the calculation of the reservation overhead to hopefully
include all the components which make up the transaction in the ondisk
log. Having this incomplete has shown up as problems on IRIX when some v2
log changes went in. The symptom was the msg of "xfs_log_write:
reservation ran out. Need to up reservation" and was seen on synchronous
writes on files with lots of holes (and therefore lots of extents).

573dbd9596 [CRYPTO]: crypto_free_tfm() callers no longer need to check for NULL
Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in,
there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL.
This patch removes the redundant NULL checks and also a few similar checks
for NULL before calls to kfree() that I ran into while doing the
crypto_free_tfm bits.

I've succesfuly compile tested this patch, and a kernel with the patch 
applied boots and runs just fine.

When I posted the patch to LKML (and other lists/people on Cc) it drew the
following comments :

 J. Bruce Fields commented
  "I've no problem with the auth_gss or nfsv4 bits.--b."

 Sridhar Samudrala said
  "sctp change looks fine."

 Herbert Xu signed off on the patch.

So, I guess this is ready to be dropped into -mm and eventually mainline.

This speeds up development of the refactorings as less sources are

36676bcbf9 [PATCH] Fix oops in sysfs_hash_and_remove_file()
The problem arises if an entity in sysfs is created and removed without
ever having been made completely visible.  In SCSI this is triggered by
removing a device while it's initialising.

The problem appears to be that because it was never made visible in sysfs,
the sysfs dentry has a null d_inode which oopses when a reference is made
to it.  The solution is simply to check d_inode and assume the object was
never made visible (and thus doesn't need deleting) if it's NULL.

(akpm: possibly a stopgap for 2.6.13 scsi problems.  May not be the
long-term fix)

d634cc15e8 [PATCH] Fix oops in fs/locks.c on close of file with pending locks
The recent change to locks_remove_flock code in fs/locks.c changes how
byte range locks are removed from closing files, which shows up a bug in
cifs.

The assumption in the cifs code was that the close call sent to the
server would remove any pending locks on the server on this file, but
that is no longer safe as the fs/locks.c code on the client wants unlock
of 0 to PATH_MAX to remove all locks (at least from this client, it is
not possible AFAIK to remove all locks from other clients made to the
server copy of the file).

Note that cifs locks are different from posix locks - and it is not
possible to map posix locks perfectly on the wire yet, due to
restrictions of the cifs network protocol, even to Samba without adding
a new request type to the network protocol (which we plan to do for
Samba 3.0.21 within a few months), but the local client will have the
correct, posix view, of the lock in most cases.

The correct fix for cifs for this would involve a bigger change than I
would like to do this late in the 2.6.13-rc cycle - and would involve
cifs keeping track of all unmerged (uncoalesced) byte range locks for
each remote inode and scanning that list to remove locks that intersect
or fall wholly within the range - locks that intersect may have to be
reaquired with the smaller, remaining range.

I've removed the IS_ERR(proc_dentry) check, which will never trigger and
