78dcf73421 Merge branch 'work.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull ->s_options removal from Al Viro:
 "Preparations for fsmount/fsopen stuff (coming next cycle). Everything
  gets moved to explicit ->show_options(), killing ->s_options off +
  some cosmetic bits around fs/namespace.c and friends. Basically, the
  stuff needed to work with fsmount series with minimum of conflicts
  with other work.

  It's not strictly required for this merge window, but it would reduce
  the PITA during the coming cycle, so it would be nice to have those
  bits and pieces out of the way"

349d743895 pstore: Implement show_options
Implement the show_options superblock op for pstore as part of a bid to get
rid of s_options and generic_show_options() to make it easier to implement
a context-based mount where the mount options can be passed individually
over a file descriptor.

4a16d1cb24 pstore: Don't warn if data is uncompressed and type is not PSTORE_TYPE_DMESG
commit 9abdcccc3d ("pstore: Extract common arguments into structure")
moved record decompression to function. decompress_record() gets
called without checking type and compressed flag. Warning will be
reported if data is uncompressed. Pstore type PSTORE_TYPE_PPC_OPAL,
PSTORE_TYPE_PPC_COMMON doesn't contain compressed data and warning get
printed part of dmesg.

Partial dmesg log:
[   35.848914] pstore: ignored compressed record type 6
[   35.848927] pstore: ignored compressed record type 8

Above warning should not get printed as it is known that data won't be
compressed for above type and it is valid condition.

This patch returns if data is not compressed and print warning only if
data is compressed and type is not PSTORE_TYPE_DMESG.

3a7d2fd16c pstore: Solve lockdep warning by moving inode locks
Lockdep complains about a possible deadlock between mount and unlink

The lockdep warning could be triggered by unlinking a file in the

70ad35db33 pstore: Convert console write to use ->write_buf
Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't know why it needs to copy the
input buffer to psinfo->buf and then write.  Instead we can write the
input buffer directly.  The only implementation that supports console
message (i.e. ramoops) already does it for ftrace messages.

For the upcoming virtio backend driver, it needs to protect psinfo->buf
overwritten from console messages.  If it could use ->write_buf method
instead of ->write, the problem will be solved easily.

5bf6d1b927 pstore/pmsg: drop bounce buffer
Removing a bounce buffer copy operation in the pmsg driver path is
always better. We also gain in overall performance by not requesting
a vmalloc on every write as this can cause precious RT tasks, such
as user facing media operation, to stall while memory is being
reclaimed. Added a write_buf_user to the pstore functions, a backup
platform write_buf_user that uses the small buffer that is part of
the instance, and implemented a ramoops write_buf_user that only
supports PSTORE_TYPE_PMSG.

8cfc8ddc99 pstore: add lzo/lz4 compression support
Like zlib compression in pstore, this patch added lzo and lz4
compression support so that users can have more options and better
compression ratio.

The original code treats the compressed data together with the
uncompressed ECC correction notice by using zlib decompress. The
ECC correction notice is missing in the decompression process. The
treatment also makes lzo and lz4 not working. So I treat them
separately by using pstore_decompress() to treat the compressed
data, and memcpy() to treat the uncompressed ECC correction notice.

on normal path since 'is_locked' variable is not set.  As normal path
always takes the lock, it should be initialized to 1.

ef74885353 fs/pstore: logging clean-up
- Define pr_fmt in plateform.c and ram_core.c for global prefix.

- Coalesce format fragments.

- Separate format/arguments on lines > 80 characters.

Note: Some pr_foo() were initially declared without prefix and therefore
this could break existing log analyzer.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: missed a couple of prefix removals]

e32634f5d5 pstore: Fix memory leak when decompress using big_oops_buf
After sucessful decompressing, the buffer which pointed by 'buf' will be
lost as 'buf' is overwrite by 'big_oops_buf' and will never be freed.

df36ac1bc2 pstore: Don't allow high traffic options on fragile devices
Some pstore backing devices use on board flash as persistent
storage. These have limited numbers of write cycles so it
is a poor idea to use them from high frequency operations.

b61edf8e7c pstore: Use zlib_inflateInit2 instead of zlib_inflateInit
Since zlib_deflateInit2() is used for specifying window bit during compression,
zlib_inflateInit2() is appropriate for decompression.

7de8fe2fa8 pstore: Adjust buffer size for compression for smaller registered buffers
When backends (ex: efivars) have smaller registered buffers, the
big_oops_buf is too big for them as number of repeated occurences
in the text captured will be less. What happens is that pstore takes
too big a bite from the dmesg log and then finds it cannot compress it
enough to meet the backend block size. Patch takes care of adjusting
the buffer size based on the registered buffer size. cmpr values have
been arrived after doing experiments with plain text for buffers of
size 1k - 4k (Smaller the buffer size repeated occurence will be less)
and with sample crash log for buffers ranging from 4k - 10k.

9ad2cbe0a9 pstore: Add file extension to pstore file if compressed
In case decompression fails, add a ".enc.z" to indicate the file has
compressed data. This will help user space utilities to figure
out the file contents.
